Global Fog Survival: I have a built-in editor

Chapter 181, News

Along the road, Li You and Tracy rode their horses with their heads covered for nearly two days and one night.

The dozen or so war horses they brought with them when they left the Haines barracks were also released by the two of them in such a wild run.

"It's already gone so far, why is the defense circle still so tight?"

Stopping on the side of the main road, Li You felt that something was not right when he saw a group of Imperial Army convoys reappearing in front of him.

"Master Li You, the imperial army's attack on Swan Castle was launched from several directions."

"But...it's a bit strange to see the Imperial Army's transport team here!"

Quietly stopping beside Li You, Tracy also looked at a group of Imperial Army transport teams and made doubtful voices.

The battlefield of the Fourth Army is already far away... Where did this group of Imperial Army transport teams come from?

In Li You's eyes, the size of this transport team is not large.

It is probably composed of more than 70 carriages, and the accompanying soldiers add up to about a hundred or so.

To the soldiers of the transport team, Li You, dressed in royal armor, was extremely conspicuous on the roadside.

Even when the transportation team reached Li You, they stopped on purpose.

Several knights in blue armor rode over from the end of the team, apparently wanting to say hello to Li You.

"My lord, good day!"

The armor on these knights looks exactly the same as the one on Tracy, and they are all standard cavalry armor of the Heins Empire.

"Good day!"

Nodding slightly, Li You looked at the knight and began to ask his own doubts.

"Where are you going?"

"Where are you going?"

Perhaps Li You's question was too strange, the knights glanced at each other before hesitatingly said:
"We came from Misa Port and escorted a batch of supplies to Swan Castle."

"what??"

Before Li You could speak, Tracy beside him let out an exclamation.

Obviously, what the knight said made her have a bad association.

"Going to Swan Castle?"

Stopping Tracy's urge to continue speaking, Li You looked at a group of knights and said:

"Could it be that Swan Castle has already been taken?"

"..."

"Don't you know yet?"

"The Seventh Army broke through Swan Castle yesterday afternoon!"

Speaking of war, the voices of several knights came out with a hint of excitement.

"After this battle, in the south of the mainland...no one can resist the empire anymore!"

"..."

"Swan Castle has fallen..."

Sighing, Li You didn't continue to ask more questions, but looked at the knights shaking their heads and said:
"I don't know the news yet!"

"Also, I'm going to requisition a batch of horses and supplies from your convoy... no problem?"

Facing Li You's "request", several knights were silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

Rejecting a royal knight is still a bit too difficult for them.

"No problem, as long as you issue a requisition order and use the seal..."

After changing a few horses and dry rations from the convoy, Li You continued galloping towards the east with Cui Xi beside him.

On the contrary, several knights of the transportation team who were "blackmailed" by Li You were a little puzzled when they watched the two go away.

"The marks on these two horses seem to belong to the Fourth Legion..."

"What is that lord going to Misa Port? Over there...has been burned to a white ground, right?"

Amidst the doubts of several people, a knight seemed a little indifferent and ended the discussion.

"As long as the royal knight's seal and requisition documents are complete, the rest...is none of our business."

……

After staying away from the transportation team for a long time, Li Yu, who had been following him on horseback silently, finally asked a question in a trembling voice.

"Master Li You... Swan Castle... No, it won't really fall, right?"

"..."

Although she couldn't see Tracy's expression, Li You knew that she might be feeling very uncomfortable at the moment.

"Tricy...Although I don't want to believe it, I'm afraid they don't need to deceive us."

"Swan Castle...I'm afraid it has become a thing of the past!"

"..."

"How is it possible, how is this possible..."

"There are still 10,000+ troops in Swan Castle!"

"How could it be breached in less than a day...!"

As Trish spoke, her mood seemed to become agitated.

"Master Li You, I think...we need to go back to Schwann Castle as soon as possible!"

"..."

"Go back to Swan Castle?"

With some hesitation, Li You gradually slowed down his horse.

"Tricy, I don't think...that's a good idea."

"Near Swan Castle, the main force of the Imperial Army should be everywhere at this time."

"After escaping from the Fourth Army, I'm afraid I've become a wanted criminal."

"As for you...you are the standard remnant of Swan Castle."

"..."

"But……"

It seemed that she wanted to refute something, but before Trish could continue to say something, she was interrupted by Li You.

"Tricy, I understand how you feel."

After organizing the language, Li You continued:

"Although Swan Castle has fallen, it is impossible for the empire to capture or defeat everyone!"

"Where do you think... the surviving rebels will go as the Empire engages in 'scorched earth tactics' in the south?"

"!!!"

Listening to Li You's analysis, Tracy called out all of a sudden.

"You mean, the survivors of Swan Castle...will flee to the Thousand Winds Islands?"

"..."

For Li You's understanding of this continent, it can even be said that even a fraction of Tracy's

Almost all of the central part of the continent, including the south, has been unified by the Haines Empire.

As for the bitter cold land in the north, it has never been valued by the empire.

The Babata that Li You met before was born in Xuefeng City in the north.

Seeing that Tracy's mood seemed to have stabilized, Li You sighed and continued:

"We can think of it, but people in the empire can't think of it."

"The seaport cities near the east coast should have all been under martial law by the imperial army at this time."

"We'd better move faster, otherwise once the imperial army completes the blockade of the coast."

"We're afraid we won't be able to find a ship that can go to sea at all!"

……

After finishing the short conversation, Li You and Tracy continued to run eastward along the road.

It's just that this time, they are no longer going to continue to turn south.

As the road deepened all the way, the bright sun above the head gradually sank.

After nightfall, Li You and Tracy decided to take a short rest for the night before moving on.

In fact, since the two left from the imperial barracks, they have hardly stopped on the road at all.

Although for fighters of the first rank and above, the impact of not resting for a day or two on combat effectiveness can be said to be negligible.

But Li You didn't think so.

"Tricy, let's take a break and leave tomorrow!"

Li You said, even slowing down the war horse.
