Chapter 383: Yinpan Town fortified its defenses and cleared the countryside, and the church’s armed

General Olivari nodded, and after calming down a little, he said: "Secretary, an important stronghold of local believers was attacked last night, and the entire village was slaughtered... Alas!" At this point, he couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Upon hearing this sad news, the white-robed priest's eyes widened and he roared in anger: "Damn bastard! Who is behind this crazy thing? Have you found any useful clues?"

General Olivari shook his head and replied helplessly: "We have only received some preliminary reports from the front-line soldiers, and have not found any trace of the enemy's main force yet. So it is difficult to determine who did it right now!"

"Now that the stronghold is destroyed, we naturally cannot collect food. So there is no need to take a detour. The marching plan remains unchanged. It is better not to mention this matter to the soldiers to avoid disrupting the morale of the army. General, continue to send people to explore the way, and wait for the soldiers to finish breakfast before continuing on their journey. May God bless and guide the believers."

"Yes, sir! My lord, please calm the troops. If we continue like this, we might fall into a trap. I will send out many people to investigate in all directions first..."

"Go! I hope the general can find the enemy as soon as possible and crack the enemy's conspiracy and tricks. May God bless you..."

The white-robed priest quietly watched the general leave. His originally resolute face completely collapsed at this moment, and his inner defenses could no longer hold.

He looked up at the sky with tears in his eyes, and asked sadly:

"Lord! Please give me guidance! Your servants are now extremely confused. We are in trouble and urgently need the Lord's blessing to help us overcome these difficulties. These are your pious people, they are suffering so much, please have mercy on us and don't abandon us in this darkness."

At about nine o'clock, the soldiers finally collected some supplies, carried a lot of clean water, and set out on the journey again.

They advanced slowly along the original path, most of the soldiers were confused and unaware of the impending crisis. In fact, at this moment, they were already in a crisis-ridden situation.

The church armed forces had no choice but to take the line of Silver Plate Town and had to plan to attack the town to get food. It was just because this place was remote and no missionaries had ever set foot in it, so they thought it would not be too difficult to rob the pagans here.

Around 3 p.m.

The hungry church militia was already looking down at the small town in the valley from the mountain...

In fact, Lord Lin Xi here had already detected the traces of the church's armed forces yesterday, but because the church's armed forces had to solve the problem of rations, their marching speed was very slow, and they only arrived now.

Lord Lin Xi knew very well that his own strength was no match for the enemy and that it was impossible to fight against the enemy with an egg.

So he decisively called on the civilians to leave the town through the mountain roads. Before leaving, he also ordered all the food to be burned. The villagers' cattle and sheep were also driven away, and at this moment they had already walked onto the post road, preparing to hide in other people's territories for a few days.

In order to understand the situation in the town, Lord Lin Xi left behind a few scouts to observe it, which was basically a strategy of clearing the countryside.

So, when the church armed forces entered this town without walls, they soon realized that it was a false joy.

There was no food here that they were looking for. They came here hungry, and now they could not walk any more. They once again aimed their butcher knives at the wolves they were carrying to satisfy their hunger, and planned to continue on their journey after they were full.

At this moment, the white-robed priest looked at everything in front of him, full of despair, and fell into deep pain and helplessness...

Kashin was resting quietly in the bushes at the moment. Since he had successfully found the large church armed force, he thought to himself that he should just follow them from a distance and there was no need to act rashly.

As for the church's armed forces entering Yinpan Town, the situation suddenly became complicated and difficult to judge for the time being. We can only observe and make decisions first.

However, when night fell, Angel, a night owl who was good at being active at night, discovered a new situation again - the church's armed forces had set off again, with no intention of staying.

Kashin originally thought that such a large town would be enough to shelter the church's armed forces for a period of time, and he was even ready to think of other countermeasures to deal with them.

Unexpectedly, the church armed forces just cooked a meal and then hurriedly moved on. Judging from their actions, they obviously did not find any food at all.

Lord Lin Xi must have had a countermeasure in advance, which coincided with Kashin's idea, and they cooperated tacitly.

Speaking of Lord Lin Xi, Kashin once met him at a grand wedding.

Tan Aili had also spoken in detail about the interactions between her and the lord. Now the cooperation between the two families is very harmonious. For this reason, Yinpan Town has raised a large number of cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and other poultry and livestock for the castle, and sold them to military food workshops as a pillar industry of the economy.

There is no doubt that Lord Lin Xi must have led his people to evacuate quickly overnight, and it is absolutely impossible for him to leave any food for the church armed forces.

At this time, Sandy came back and asked Zhuangzhuang to go to the side to eat first.

Kashin saw Sendy coming back and asked with a smile: "Senior, what is the situation? Is it really as Andy investigated?"

When Sendi heard Kashin's question, he couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Yinpan Town had become a lifeless empty town. They didn't find any food there, so they had no choice but to use the stoves and firewood of the residents to slaughter about 200 mounts. After eating their fill, they hurriedly left at night.

Haha, I really feel that this church armed force is getting worse and worse." As he said this, Sendi walked to Kashin's side and slowly sat down.

"Good! Lord Lin Xi is wise. He must have taken everyone away in advance, and did not leave even a grain of food. As a result, their physical strength must have been greatly reduced. We just need to follow them from a distance. However, there are no signs of pursuers..." After saying that, Kashin raised his head and took a big sip of iced coffee.

"There was no sign of any pursuers. I searched carefully for more than ten miles, but found nothing!"

Kashin smiled and said: "The way to track them must be far away to avoid being exposed. Where can the target of a hundred thousand troops run to? Don't worry, they must be at least half a day's journey away..."

Kashin said thoughtfully, "Let's keep our distance, follow them from a distance, and keep a close eye on their every move. But we can't be complacent, because new situations may arise at any time."

Sandy nodded and responded: "Don't worry, as long as we stay vigilant and adaptable, we will know where they run." The night wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the figures of the two people looked steady and determined under the moonlight.

The main group was moving very slowly, so there was no need to follow too closely. Kashin went into meditation and waited until midnight to track them down.
