Under this premise, he had a record of breaking through Shiuan City.

In other words, if a result were to be assessed now, his score would definitely surpass the opponents.

But that was not the main point.

The main issue was that this expedition had cost him over a h 100,000 in military expenses, and he had gained little in resources from breaching Shiuan City.

If he couldn't get Lu Y's reward, he would suffer a significant loss.

Of course, he could also choose to invade again.

The combined value of two silver grade items far exceeded the two or 300,000 in military expenses.

But the problem was that he worried about the chance of a second invasion being snatched away by other members of the group.

For example, that Xiao Nan, that guy's rank was a full 31 places higher than his.

If the opportunity for a second invasion were to be taken by Xiao Nan, unless he made a careless mistake, it was almost certain that this Luagia would be doomed.

Unlike the inflated rankings without tiers, the transition period in the bronze tier tends to be longer, leading a large number of players to stay in this tier for quite some time.

This also means that the number of players in the bronze tier far exceeds those without ranks.

Basically, anyone who can rank in the top 100 is a tough character, and none of the top 200 are easy to deal with.

Wong Luchong strength is said to be mid-tier, but accurately speaking, he should belong to the lower mid tier.

Ranked outside the 300.

Zhao Dongan himself was ranked 271.

Don't think this rank is low.

It's actually not considered low as it depends on who you compare with.

Those ahead of him are no pushovers and ranks in the bronze tier are not easy to climb.

Take Xiao Nan as an example.

He was 31 ranks higher, sitting at 240.

He had been bouncing around this rank for many years winning and losing and over the years his rank hadn't t significantly improved.

But who would dare to underestimate him? Which veteran in the bronze tier wound t weigh their own strength after seeing that name? Xiaoin and could be considered a semi boss level figure in the bronze tier.

Everyone said that if Xiaoin and got serious, he could break into the top 200 and staying at this position was all about stability.

Returning to the main point, Zhao Dong Nand faced a difficult choice.

If he temporarily retreated and was intercepted, it would be quite disappointing.

However, the casualties from continuing to fight were also a serious consideration.

This dilemma kept him troubled until dawn.

After a night of travel, the soldiers were already exhausted.

Estimating the distance.

This location should be relatively safe, but the soldiers were at their limit.

So, Zhao Dong Nan ordered a brief adjustment and rest.

Watching the distant army starting to make a fire and cook, Lu Kai, who was trailing behind with a 100man team, couldn't he help but ponder, "General, should we send someone back to inform the leader of the location of these outsiders?" "Not yet.

Wait a bit longer.

" Lu Kai shook his head.

They were still just cooking, but hadn't tea set up tents, indicating that these outsiders might only be resting briefly before moving again.

Time proved Lu Kai rightight.

As noon approached, the outsider army began to move again.

This time changing direction and heading south.

They continued until evening before finally settling down.

Seeing the outsider army starting to set up temporary tents, Lukai called over his best cavalrymen and ordered him to hurry back to Shiuan City as fast as possible to inform the leader of the situation here.

Divider meanwhile back at Shiuan City.

After yesterday's battle, Luagia was completely exhausted.

Every soldier under his command could take a moment to adjust and rest within Shiuan City.

But he could not, as he was the leader of this entire civilization.

Though the battle was not over, the matters awaiting his attention had already piled up like a mountain.

Aside from a large pile of written reports, as the leader of this entire civilization, he needed to personally comfort the people of Shiuan City and the soldiers who had just endured the ravages of war.

After going through this, a whole day had nearly passed.

That night, he unexpectedly slept soundly, perhaps because he was too tired, which left him with fewer thoughts.

As soon as he lay down, he fell into a deep sleep.

When he came to his senses, the sun was already high in the sky.

Coincidentally, it was at this moment that a person on horseback rushed in under the blazing sun outside Shiuan City.

Report to the leader, Lu Kai subordinate.

Cavalry squad leader Luang request an audience.

Hearing this report, Luajia, who was having breakfast, immediately perked up.

Let him in.

As soon as the words fell, Luang, dressed in leather armor, quickly walked in.

Cavalry squad leader Lu Yang of Ming Jing City, paying respects to the leader.

Luia raised his hand, signaling Luang to directly report the news he had brought back.

Luang was straightforward and immediately pulled out a map from his pocket and spread it out.

Leader, please look.

After the outsider army retreated from Shiuan City, they headed west and fled overnight.

After a day and a night, they finally camped in this area.

The map clearly marked the outsiders retreat route with dye extending from Shiuan city to the area where they finally set up camp.

It was surprisingly clear that they could run and the chosen camping position was specifically an area surrounded by woods, not forgetting to annoy his cavalry unit.

At the same time, judging from the markings on the map, this wooded area was likely quite large.

Using fire attacks would probably be ineffective, and Luaja also didn't te have enough oil to set a second fire.

Send the order to gather forces.

Each person should carry 5 days worth of rations.

Depart immediately.

Chapter 249.

Both sides prepare in the upcoming wilderness raid battle.

Siege equipment was clearly of no use and was all left in Shiuan City.

In addition, Luang also stayed in Shiuan City to recuperate due to his injuries.

Lu Gi gathered 3,000 troops and after adding a capable general set out on the same day.

Controlling the marching speed reasonably was key during the expedition.

Pursuing speed without consideration could lead to arriving at the destination without the strength to fight, which was clearly putting the cart before the horse.

Luji had always been good at grasping this balance.

Meanwhile, a few days earlier, the brothers Guja and Gujan, who are on their way back to Ming Jing City, received Lu Ji's second military order after a long time.

The earlier military order had been sent half a month ago, instructing them to return to Mingjing City to assist in resisting the impending invasion of outsiders.

However, they've been preoccupied with battles and accidentally wandered too far.

Additionally, the increase in the number of soldiers under their command significantly slowed their marching speed, making it impossible for them to return in a short time.

They were still on the road when the second military order arrived swiftly in their hands.

What to say? Guan crossed his arms and frowned at Gua who was sitting there.

Although Luo Chun did not speak, his expression clearly showed he was very concerned about the content of this second military order.

Feeling their gazes, Guja put down the military order he had just received.

It seemed that this time the invading outsiders were unexpectedly tricky with six crossbows and 5,000 troops.

And they had forcibly breached Shiuan City in half a day.

5,000 troops.

Upon hearing this number, both Gujan and Luo Chun exclaimed with Luo Changengs face showing unreserved shock and they breached Shiuan City in half a day.

How is that possible? Luo Chan, tell me what is the situation in Shiuan City? Gua asked seriously.

After all, he and Gujan have been fighting outside for many years.

So, they could not possibly know the situation in Shiuan City.

Luo Chong had left during that period and had it seen the scale and walls of Shiuan City, which is why he was so shocked upon hearing the news of its breach.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Lu Chun quickly unfolded a map and circled Shiuan City with his finger.

Shiuan city is located here serving as the first line of defense west of Mingjing city.

Moreover, this entire area as territory is interconnected.

As he spoke, Luo Chong seriously explained the changes in the layout around Mingjing city.

Guaji's eyes sparkled as he listened, still unable to imagine how their leader could achieve such a large-scale endeavor in such a short time.

It was simply incredible.
