Standing at the bow, Horn gazed at the billowing white smoke behind the distant hills in a daze, until it disappeared from view.
His gaze shifted to the sails behind him, where the sailors were tensely adjusting the ropes to adapt to the changing wind direction.
Fortunately, today the wind was blowing northward, otherwise the speed of upstream travel wouldn't be so fast.
Starting from Ma Tou Town, heading north along the Nao'an River, Horn's destination was Shangruifo County.
That's where his hometown is, the place of his birth.
At least in the eyes of the world, that's how it appears.
As for why Horn is leading the Guard Battle Group to Shangruifo County, the situation has naturally changed.
Since the previous Battle of Redway, the Leia Army, after rest and reformation, launched another attack in May.
From the ry Court Barracks to Ma Tou Town, Horn could hear reports from Cheka about the related news.
