Chapter 568: Operation Shalomanda Begins (Part 1)

Ilsa's answer seemed to surprise the man in black robe.

"Oh, oh, oh." The man in black robe took his eyes away from Ilsa and looked at the distant skyline in front of him again, looking at the blue sky, "If Arthur hears your answer, She must be very surprised and happy, she never thought that she could be understood by such a young girl..."

"Sister, are you a historian?" Ilsa asked the man in black robe curiously, "I always feel like you know the history of the 'King of Knights' very well! Are you a historian who specializes in studying the 'King of Knights'? ?”

"Historian? Well...it doesn't really count." The corners of the black-robed man's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, "I'm just retelling the scenes I've seen before."

"Huh?" Ilsa looked at the man in black robes with confusion, "What do you mean?"

"That's the literal meaning." The man in black robe chuckled a few times, "If I say that I have personally witnessed the quarrel between the Knights of the Round Table and Arthur, and also seen Arthur personally leading twelve Knights of the Round Table to conquer all directions, little sister, would you believe it? ?"

"Of course I don't believe it!" Ilsa said angrily without even thinking, "The 'King of Knights' and the Knights of the Round Table were both figures from thousands of years ago! Sister, if you have really seen the 'King of Knights' and the Knights of the Round Table, As for the Knights of the Round Table, aren’t you thousands of years old?”

"Hehehe." The man in black robe let out a few meaningful chuckles before standing up from the ground.

"Okay, little sister, it's time for me to go. I'm very happy to chat with you today. Thank you."

"Huh? Sister, are you leaving? Don't you want to see more of this beautiful sea of ​​flowers?"

"No more." The man in black robe shook his head, "I have seen this sea of ​​flowers many times, and if you knew the history of this sea of ​​flowers, you wouldn't think it is very beautiful anymore."

"The...history of the sea of ​​flowers?"

"Well, this sea of ​​flowers is an ancient battlefield. Thousands of years ago, when Arthur led 8 Knights of the Round Table to launch a strategic decisive battle against the Western Barbarians - the Northern Cross Blitzkrieg, they encountered the main force of the Western Barbarians here, and then started A brutal fight."

"The strategic purpose of the Northern Cross Blitz is to completely destroy the national power of the Western Barbarians, so 'kill the enemy wherever you encounter and take no prisoners' is the purpose of this Northern Cross Blitz."

"The battle at that time was really brutal." The man in black robe sighed softly, "Whether he picked up a weapon or not, he would kill the Western Barbarians whenever he saw them. More than 100,000 Western Barbarians were slaughtered, and the soil of the earth was stained with blood. It’s black and purple, with minced meat and internal organs everywhere. People with weak concentration might go crazy if they see such a terrifying battlefield.”

As soon as the man in black robe finished speaking, Ilsa's face turned pale. She quickly stood up from the sea of ​​flowers and looked at the beautiful sea of ​​flowers at her feet with surprise and a little fear.

"It's so dramatic." The man in black robe lowered his head, cast complex eyes at the beautiful and delicate flowers at his feet, and continued to mutter to himself, "The battlefield that was once so tragic and terrifying has now turned into Such a vast sea of ​​beautiful flowers.”

After talking to himself like this,

The man in black robe smiled bitterly and shook his head, then pulled up the hood of the black robe and headed north.

Going farther and farther, until finally completely disappearing from Ilsa's sight.

July 20, 291 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.

Britannia Empire, northern border, Lygasus Mountains (Mount Bra), mountain barbarian trading point at the foot of the mountain.

As soon as the sky dawned, the only trading point in the Ligasos Mountains that traded with the barbarians began to operate.

The mercenaries equipped themselves with swords and began to guard the gate of the trading point and began patrolling.

The middle-aged boss of the trading point got up before dawn and started looking through his account books to calculate his recent income.

However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from outside the house.

The boss didn't pay much attention at first, just thinking that some travelers might be passing by, and continued to look at the account book in his hand.

However, the boss discovered that the noise seemed to be getting louder and louder, from far to near.

As the strange noise became louder and louder, the boss also heard loud shouts, the sound of armor clashing, and the angry curses of his son and mercenaries.

--What happened?

An unknown premonition came to the boss's mind.

He quickly closed the account book in his hand and threw it aside. Then he picked up the bow and arrow hanging on the wall and the dagger placed on the table for self-defense, and rushed out quickly.

The boss of the trading point is not a weak boss with no strength. He still knows some fighting skills, especially archery.

After the boss of the trading point took his bow, arrows and dagger and rushed out of the house, the scene that appeared in front of him was so scary.

Nearly a hundred fully armed Britannian soldiers with iron armor, spears, swords, and iron shields appeared in his trading point, confronting the few mercenaries he hired and his son.

It may not be accurate to say that it was a confrontation, because there were less than 10 people on their side, while there were nearly a hundred people on the Britannia Army side.

The difference in strength is too great to call it a confrontation at all.

The soldiers of the Britannia Army pointed their cold-glaring gun heads at them and shouted at them, asking the people at their trading point to put down their weapons and retreat.

Although the mercenaries he hired and his son had faces full of fear, they were not to be outdone and roared at the soldiers of the Britannia Army, asking them what they were doing.

The boss who has been running this trading point for decades naturally knows what to do in this situation.

"Listen to them obediently! Put down your weapons and retreat!"

No matter what, going against the Empire's army will never end well - the boss of the trading point knows this very well.

After saying that, the boss set an example and threw the bow, arrow and dagger he had just taken out of the house to the ground.

"Father!"

After seeing the boss come out, his young son, who had just started to train recently, and the mercenaries he hired all looked happy at the same time, because they had found their backbone.

Seeing the boss coming out, his young son and the mercenaries felt reassured.

Although they showed unwillingness, they finally obeyed the boss's words, put down their weapons, and then retreated to the boss's side.

After his son and the few mercenaries he hired retreated to his side, the boss of the trading point coughed a few times, calmed down his mind, and calmed down a little. Then he said loudly to the nearly a hundred soldiers of the Britannia Army in front of him:

"I am the person in charge here! I wonder if you are here for anything? We will definitely cooperate with you fully! Please don't worry!"
