Ultimate Assassin System

The bustling Hualang Trial in the Imperial Capital ended with Philip's acquittal in the second trial because no victim was willing to come forward to testify.

After this battle, the reputation of the imperial capital Hualang was completely established and spread throughout the north and south of Lanzhou. For a long period of time, it became a topic of interest for the nobles and commoners in the capital to talk about after dinner. The woman heard the news and felt both love and hate, with mixed feelings in her heart. The man was envious, jealous, and resentful, lamenting that the gods were taking a nap, allowing this scourge to escape innocently...

However, no matter what kind of feelings and emotions they were, they were selectively forgotten by the people soon after a new topic emerged.

This is the capital city, lively, prosperous, and almost any rhythm is faster than that of any other town.

But being there, Tang En had no time to feel the excitement and appreciate the prosperity. After returning from Philip's residence that night, Tang En spent the whole night thinking about the meaning of Philip's words.

Pay more attention to Josiah and the Grays...

Then early the next morning, Tang En sent out accompanying Gray Space members to collect all information about the Gray Army and Josiah. There is very little news about the latter, and it appears most often on the wanted posters of Bran's trade union. In comparison, the information on the former is quite vast and numerous.

All comers are welcome. As long as the content is relevant, Tang En will enter it into the system first. Then I sorted, analyzed, and judged... In the end, I was completely confused!

From what Phillip said, Wooding seemed to want to use Josiah and the Gray Army to force him to submit. But after much thought, Tang En still had no clue.

It goes without saying that Josiah is safe, she is now in the military. Protected by David and the others and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. As long as Wooding doesn't go north. Tang En really couldn't think of anyone else who could threaten Joshua's safety. And now he is in the capital. Therefore, it is impossible for Wooding to go north.

Not to mention the Gray Army, the situation is very good. Unless Bran is willing to disregard the safety of the border and directly bring back one of the three frontline legions, Tang En really doesn't worry about any forces that can threaten him. Now the gray army is getting stronger...

Could it be that Wooding was teasing him?

Well, Tang En and Wooding have been getting along for a while. Given the child's nature, it's not impossible to tease him. But when it comes to the current critical situation of Bran, Wooding, as the patron saint of this empire, seems unlikely to have the leisure to joke at this time...

Tang En was confused. It didn't feel good to be plotted against. What's even worse is the confusion of knowing that you are being plotted, but not knowing where to start to break the situation.

Day after day, half a month passed. The capital was still prosperous and lively, and Tang En became increasingly anxious. It could be regarded as an intuitive hunch. Tang En felt that Wooding was not teasing him this time, and that something bad was indeed happening. And it’s just for him...

Just when Tang En's patience was about to run out, he was already planning to risk his life and stay at the foot of Wooding's Little House. While trying to find an insider, that is, Wooding's eldest brother Haita, a piece of news came through...

The news was spread by Wooding, passed through the hands of Philip, and then from the personnel of the capital's secret agency who had been exposed, and finally came to Tang En's hands.

There was a thick pile, and when I looked up I saw a small note, which should have been written by Wooding himself - 'Xiao Tang, I'm in trouble! ^-^’

A few concise words, plus a weird smiley face symbol that seems familiar. Just like the familiar tone pattern that Tang En left behind when he killed the traitor under Wooding's nose.

Under the note is a folded map, a military map of a certain area in the north, with several arrow lines drawn in three colors on it.

Tang En didn't understand military strategy, but he could still understand military maps somewhat. What's more, the picture in front of me is not complicated at all. The gray area represents the gray army. The location is at the center of the map, which is a bit small. Part of the east, west, south and north areas of the Gray Army are marked with black marks, which represents the extremely broad Bran Empire.

There is no problem with such a sharp contrast. Bran's territory is indeed very large, especially in the north, and it is unobstructed and no one knows where it ends. So despite the fact that the Gray Army made a fuss for a long time after fighting out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the actual territory they occupied was still a bit small compared to Bran's vast territory.

To the north of the Gray Army, in the small area that is not surrounded by the Bran Empire, a shocking red arrow runs through the Bran area along a line called Sharon on the map and extends to the vicinity of the Gray Army's territory. . Looking at that trend, if we continue to move forward, we will definitely cut off the area occupied by the Gray Army!

And that red arrow represents the Northern Wilderness barbarians!

Small words are marked on the side - on the day of the year, the Northern Wasteland officially breaks through the Bran border blockade!

Well, the day before yesterday...

There is currently no news in the world about the Northern Wilderness tribe breaking through the Bran border blockade, at least not in the capital. And there is no doubt that if this news spreads, even the people in the capital who are as comfortable as the people in the capital will instantly fall into boundless panic and be in constant panic.

You must know that in hundreds of years of war, although the Northern Wilderness tribe has never stopped attacking and invading, the actual situation is that they have never truly succeeded in breaking through the blockade and reaching the hinterland of Bran.

Now, they succeeded. And it is the gray-clad army that may sacrifice the flag for their breakthrough record...

Seeing this, combined with the words that Philip had passed on for him before, Tang En still didn't understand what Wooding meant. Sure enough, when I opened the thick pile of information under the map, there was all the intelligence information collected by Bran's military about the mysterious commander of the barbarians.

After casually flipping through it and putting it down, Tang En thought about it for about three seconds.

Waved his hand, Ready your horses and go back to the north!

…

In the north, the army in gray clothes, the military tent.

Breaking through so quickly...

Really a barbarian from the Northern Wilderness?

The Bran border line was not guarded...

Hmph! What's wrong? I guess they did this on purpose, just to use us as a shield. This way they can block the barbarians and attack us at the same time, killing two birds with one stone...

Damn, that makes sense, it must be right! I was talking about how Bran soldiers have been going crazy these days, blocking our progress regardless of the cost of casualties. It turns out they are waiting here... so damn cruel!

It's so careless, it's so careless... I didn't even count the barbarians...

What a bad luck... I told you not to attack the military fortress of Sharon and not to occupy this sensitive area. But you didn't listen. What happened now...

Shut up! What's the use of talking about this now? Could you have expected something like this to happen half a month ago?

I didn't expect it, but if you had listened to me then, this problem wouldn't have happened today!

Childish! Go ahead and do your propaganda work. What kind of battlefield is this? Are you better at fighting than me? Our previous strategic plan was set in this area. There is no way to avoid it. It has to do with whether we occupy the Sharon Fortress or not. What the hell...

Rude! Barbaric! I don't know how to fight, but I have eyes. The barbarian army obviously came along the Sharon Fortress. As long as we avoid it at that time, they will not provoke us at all...

Shit! It's so ridiculous...

…

Discussions, curses, and quarrels were occasionally mixed with sighs of frustration. The military tent, which usually had a majestic atmosphere, was now as chaotic as a noisy market.

Like most of the people in Bran, the Gray Army did not expect that the Northern Wilderness barbarians could break through the border blockade that had not been broken for hundreds of years. So they didn't notice at all that the place closest to the frontline border was actually the Shiwandashan area where they were located!

And when the secret agency personnel rushed to deliver the information early in the morning, the military tent was already in chaos. First there was shock and disbelief, and then when all the high-level generals gathered, the endless discussions and quarrels began.

Barbarians... To be honest, the Gray Army didn't know much about barbarians. The few contacts they had were due to the experience of cooperating with Bran, when the Gray Army sent troops to the front line to fight the barbarians with Bran's soldiers.

But that time they were just supporting from the side. The main force that really fought against the barbarians was actually Bran's army.

This time is different. If there are no accidents, they will be the main force to face this barbarian with the most terrifying individual combat power on the continent!

Confidence... really not much...
