Chapter 163: Crossing the River [Dabro]

Sijie River, upstream of the mute bridge, late at night.

The moon tonight is particularly bright, and the waves rolled up by the surging river water reflect the dark blue light.

Above the endless river surface, more than a dozen small boats are struggling to move towards the other side; the water in the Sijie River is very fast, and from time to time, the river water splashes on the boat's deck, which makes people feel a little scared.

Flying through the Four Realms River is not a wise move - she is the fastest-flowing river in the Kingdom of Fares, especially the area where the East and Middle Realms intersect. During the rainy season, the waves can be terrifying and can directly capture the poorly made rafts;

If it weren't for an experienced old boatman or the quality of the ship was not strong enough, crossing the river would be a relatively dangerous thing; if a merchant wanted to cross the Four Realms River, he would have to spend a considerable amount of money on a boat - so the mute bridge was their first choice.

The Eastern Army was not afraid of the Central Army crossing the river by boat; on the contrary, the former hoped that the latter would do so.

Phoenix has ordered the people along the East Gate to move to the East Gate. If the Central Army crosses the river from a place outside the Yaqiao Bridge, it will be impossible to get any supplies in the East Gate, and even the logistics route is difficult to guarantee - in terms of the number of existing ships, it is impossible to ensure the supply of food for tens of thousands of people.

What's more, the time it takes so many people to cross the river is enough for the Eastern Army to discover and organize the attack.

Under the threats and temptations, Dabro only found these small boats - the boatmen were all from the middle realm, and the boatmen on the east realm had stopped ferrying and could not be found at all.

In this regard, Dabro could only work hard for them a few more times to bring enough people to the other side of the river.

"Big... Sir, I can't stand it anymore, vomit..." The white ape held the boat's side and half lying on the deck - he had already spitted all the things he had eaten before leaving into the river: "This... this wave is too big, right? How did the mute bridge be built on it..."

"I used magic to build a bridge in the early stage of the piers, otherwise the bridge would not be able to be built at this flow rate." Dabro still looked at the parchment scroll in his hand without raising his head. This time the book he read was quite appropriately replaced with the drawings for the bridge construction - the ship was shaking violently and could not see the handwriting clearly, so he could only light a lamp to look at the drawings.

"Can we do this... be able to do it?" The white ape has always been skeptical about Dabro's plan. "This... is too crazy, right?"

"Even the plan we don't want to believe is the enemy," said Dabro. "As long as you follow my instructions, there will be no problem."

"That's right...hehe!" The white ape was still very worried about the next plan.

"This is related to the lives of each of you." Dabro emphasized "you".

The white ape nodded with a wry smile - this noble master is different from others. Everyone else takes the lead in charge, and he first thinks about his retreat; the last ambush he hid behind so many people, and this time the operation is much more dangerous, so he must hide in a safer place...

However, he also has his own abilities to make these hundreds of people work hard with him.

Although Dabro had no humanity, he did not have the airs of a noble master. The white ape had many problems and he had never been bored with it. Moreover, he believed that letting his subordinates know more can better work hard for him.

Of course, none of these are the most important—the most important point is that Dabro never stings with the rewards of his subordinates;

Not only did he pay enough money without owing arrears, but he also had a reward after completing the task; the battle to ambush the cavalry in the East was their first actual battle, and the reward was the most - Dabro distributed all the rewards given by Marquis Mor to the militia.

Speaking of the previous victory, the greatest benefit Dabro gained from it was nothing more than the trust of the Marquis;

When he returned to the camp with the heads of the Eastern cavalry and other spoils, everyone looked at this fat man who looked a little funny;

What methods did he use to kill the three hundred cavalrymen?

Dabro was naturally not stingy with preaching his tactics, but the nobles who had only looked through the military history a few times had no idea how the complex tactics should be operated.

This is natural - before the East Army attacked, most of these nobles had only seen the guards around them, and they rarely went to the training ground, so they naturally didn't know too many tactics.

Although Marquis Moor didn't know much about what Dabrou had used, he already knew one thing: although this fat man could not fight, he was very capable of taking others to fight.

If it weren't for this victory, Dabro's almost crazy suggestion would not have been adopted by Marquis Mora, and it would have been impossible to send 1,500 soldiers to obey his arrangements.

In this night, it was enough for everyone to cross the Four Realms River. Although tomorrow's battle is theoretically sure, those people are militias after all, and the methods are still questionable. If it weren't for the fact that they had seen blood in the ambush before, Dabro would never dare to let them perform this mission.

The combat effectiveness of the militia is still limited after all; after reaching the other side of the river, some militia and regular soldiers will be allowed to exchange clothes.

If the first phase of the battle fails, what we need to consider is not how to continue, but how to retreat; we have to say hello to the boatman in advance... Although failure will cause all the trust accumulated before to be wasted, it is possible to make achievements if the mountains are left without worrying about burning firewood.

"After you get ashore, you must browse the map I gave you well." Dabrow reminded, "If you are lost after a successful breakthrough, no one can save you."

"Don't worry, I've seen dozens of views... utter--!"

"Not only do you need to read and remember it, but you also need to pass it on to your people so that they can also know where to go." Dabro added, "Time is quite limited; once Wangyuancheng reacts, the whole plan will fail, and I will give up on you without hesitation, do you understand?"

"Well, I know!" Bai Yuan nodded vigorously, "I'll talk to them later!"

The map was drawn by Dabro after searching for a lot of information and actual observations; although it was a little rough, it was enough for those who had not entered the bridgehead to know the general structure inside it.

More than a dozen boats docked one by one, hundreds of people gathered together after getting off the boat, preparing to rest for a night and then head to the mute bridge.

The ships quickly rowed towards the shore of the Central Realm - there were still 1,500 soldiers waiting for them.

Tomorrow is the "Rain Festival"...

Dabro looked at the bright moon.

It will also be the day to seize the bridgehead.
