Chapter 865 – Beauty of the Garden City

At 3 PM, the hottest period had passed.

After clearing up the battlefield, the Tiger Leopard Cavalry escorted 100 thousand prisoners and headed right for Casa Blanca. They needed to reach the city before nightfall, or they would have to spend the night in the wilderness.

Thinking about the mosquitoes, Huo Qubing could not help but frown, “Ma Chao!”

“Present!”

“Lead the way with the 1st and 2nd division. You must take down Casa Blanca before the sky darkens.” The army was escorting the prisoners and could not move quickly. The only way was for a vanguard force to go first.

Ma Chao froze before giving a military bow. An excited glow appeared in his eyes. It revealed a craving for war contributions and fresh blood as he said loudly, “Yes!”

Huo Qubing reminded, “Go, be careful!”

After taking down the 130 thousand troops of the Moroccan territory armies, not only was Casa Blanca defenseless, but even the other two territories did not have any troops. Logically speaking, Ma Chao would not face any problems. Huo Qubing instructed him to be careful to prevent him from messing up.

What happened to the Moroccan army was still fresh in their minds.

“Do not worry general!”

Although Ma Chao was a fierce general, he was not a pure muscle head. In fact, he was a really thoughtful person.

After a short while, the 1st and 2nd divisions broke away from the main force, sweeping toward the south and slowly disappearing out of sight. When the captured soldiers from Casa Blanca saw this, their faces turned ashen white.

Obviously, they knew what these cavalry were going to do. They were even more certain that the remaining three thousand Casa Blanca troops would not be able to stop them.

Amidst that fear was also a certain respect for these troops.

As Ma Chao had said, this battle was not easy for the Tiger Leopard Legion. If one looked carefully, their armor was all soaked. In fact, it was like they were scooped out from the river.

Under such a hot weather, even the Moroccan’s themselves could not take it, much less the Tiger Leopard Cavalry who were wearing heavy armor. The soldiers were only hotter, and it was much more unbearable.

During this battle, apart from them having great stamina and combat strength, they also had higher levels of determination and perseverance.

After the battle, some soldiers directly fainted because of heatstroke. Even so, they could only sneakily remove their armor. After their breathing got smooth, they wore it back. As for the sweat, it was treated as a mark of the battle.

A beautiful victory was the best reward for the Tiger Leopard Cavalry.

Under such circumstances, the Tiger Leopard Legion did not dare take it easy, and their formation was really serious. Ma Chao did not bother about resting, once again stepping on their journey.

In comparison, the Moroccan territory army appeared too spoiled. Even without their river side antics, they would have still been defeated.

“To be defeated by the Great Xia Army, we were rightly beaten.”

Just as Huo Qubing led his troops toward Casa Blanca, all the Moroccan players who died in the ambush were revived in the Imperial City Reincarnation Hall.

Within the dark hall, numerous spirits were unable to revive, crying out in pain.

Quickly, the news that the territory army was ambushed and crushed had spread throughout the entire Rabat.

This time, the imperial city was in dead silence.

“Why did this happen?”

When Mohammed the 6th heard this news, he muttered, and the frown on his face grew deeper and deeper.

Unfortunately, no one would be able to reply to the king’s doubts.

The territory army’s fall was undoubtedly a huge blow to the people’s nerves. If they continue to be stressed out like that, they might collapse.

The hopes for victory seemed to get slimmer and slimmer. Meanwhile, the unrest in the city seemed to grow larger and larger, making it hard for one to breathe. Even the Guards Soldiers were not as confident as before.

The imperial city had suddenly become a lone city.

At this very moment, Golden Mercenary Group Guild Leader Amedee stepped out and said, “We are far from despair, as long as we hold on till the Spanish Invincible Squadron arrives, we can win.”

“That’s right, there’s still the Spanish Invincible Squadron. We can still win.” They said.

Seemingly going along with the words of Amedee, a batch of warships and merchant ships arrived outside the city. Unfortunately, they were not the Spanish Invincible Squadron that they were waiting for.

Based on the journey time, the Spanish Invincible Squadron should still be in the Mediterranean Ocean. After getting the news, Casillas would need time to return to his territory and gather his troops. Overall, it would still take a day.

The one that arrived was the 2nd division of the Mediterranean Squadron as well as the merchant ships of the Great Xia Dynasty. They were here to give the expedition army resources and send goods to the Satellite City.

Seeing that, the civilians living in the city were dispirited, “Wow the enemy does not lack grain. We do not even have the ability to fight a drawn out battle with them.”

The morale of Morocco was being dwindled down bit by bit.

At the same time, the 5th legion led by Shi Dakai was like an exquisite instrument, probing at the imperial city. Like an expert assassin, they patiently searched for the weakness of the enemy.

The current Great Xia Dynasty had the ability to run a large-scale country war efficiently. Each force ran independently but also kept in close contact, pushing out their battle plans flawlessly.

In contrast, Morocco was on the back foot.

At 7 PM, Casa Blanca was in their sights.

The summer days were really long. Even though it was 7 PM, it was only just night. The moon hung high in the sky, the stars shining bright. In the distance, the sunset covered the sun.

If the wilderness did not have groups of mosquitoes fooling around, such a night would be perfect.

Torches lit up the Casa Blanca covered by the night sky.

Ma Chao, who had rushed over early, did not let down Huo Qubing. Not only did he successfully take down Casa Blanca, but looking at the situation, although the city was covered in a feeling of uneasiness, it was still really orderly.

The Great Xia Dynasty Army had made it clear that they were not to disturb the people.

After Ma Chao entered the city, he broke the territory stone stele, taking the equipment of the remaining soldiers in the city. He sent men to defend the city gates, city walls, important streets, and other important areas.

At the same time, he arranged a cavalry regiment to patrol the city to calm down the people.

The remaining forces entered the barracks in the city. They cleaned out the rooms and prepared grain for the main force. The thoughtful Ma Chao even prepared the camp for the prisoners.

Of course, Ma Chao alone could not have managed it. The army system of the Great Xia Dynasty army was perfect. Long ago, when Baiqi had arrived, each army had advisors, grain officers, clerks, and other support staff.

Their presence was the key to the army running operations.

Similar to the people in the imperial city, Casa Blanca’s residents had heard the news of the territory army falling. As a garden city, it was calm and romantic, and the only thing it lacked was a killing aura.

Hence, when Ma Chao led his troops over, Casa Blanca chose to surrender. The elders in the city raised up a weird request; they could gather grain but not destroy the flowers and environment within the city.

When Ma Chao heard that, he kept silent.

Since they were so cooperative, Ma Chao naturally would not go all out.

When Huo Qubing and his forces arrived, the civilians had already returned home. Seeing the army enter, they could only look out through the holes in their window, gazing respectfully at the army.

When they say row after row of prisoners, all their thoughts was lost.

During this night, Casa Blanca was destined to be sleepless.

To the Tiger Leopard Cavalry, they were tired after an entire day and could finally rest up now.

The residents of Casa Blanca were not the only ones that could not fall asleep.

Night, Mediterranean Ocean region.

The huge Spanish Invincible Squadron was now traveling on the vast ocean. During the day, they had already crossed the ocean region where Jidian City was located smoothly.

The Mediterranean Squadron 5th division was patrolling the outskirts of Jidian City, sending out a signal that they were just defending the city to their death. Seeing that, Casillas did not provoke them and took another path.

Jidian City’s defense was just too terrifying. Casillas did not want any conflict with them at the moment.

“Once I deal with the expedition army, I’ll come back for you.”

Casillas glanced at Jidian City, and a look of viciousness flashed in his eyes. The presence of Jidian City to Casillas, to the Spanish players, was a humiliation.

The arrogant Spanish wanted to remove this cancer, but they had no way to do so.

This time, the Great Xia Dynasty attacking Morocco was undoubtedly the best chance for Casillas. The Great Xia Dynasty was destined to be enemies with the whole Mediterranean region, so Spain had no reason not to butt in.

The next morning, the Spanish Invincible Squadron would pass through the Gibraltar Straits. Casillas was feeling really confident about beating the Mediterranean Squadron.

Unfortunately, Casillas did not know that on that night, there was a person whose face was ashen white and unsettled. She was not anyone but the Lord of Casa Blanca, Caroline.

At 5 PM, she had received the notification that her territory was occupied.

That moment, Caroline nearly fell to the ground.

Due to not being in the country, Caroline had escaped and was not teleported over to Rabat. Hence, Casillas did not suspect anything.

Caroline could not imagine whether Casillas would still help them or not if he knew that the Moroccan territory army had fallen.

Hence, no matter what, Caroline would not let Casillas know the truth. Hence, during dinner, Caroline was smiling widely and nothing weird could be seen.

One had to say that women were great actresses, especially beautiful women. The pitiful Casillas was still being kept in the dark and still having dreams of being the white knight.
