665 Ransom Fee

In the next few days, the human army stayed in the forest city and began to rest.

Since the dispatch of troops, they have been sweeping the grassland for more than 20 days, and there is an encounter almost every day.

There are rooms, beds, and sufficient supplies in this city, and Xiao Feng plans to let the soldiers rest here for a few days.

Kyle and Bloom are worried, especially after learning that day that the orcs have gone looking for Dragon City.

They were very worried that if these guys really found Dragon City and caught a few dragons back, it would be troublesome.

This dragon is the head of the ancient beasts, and anyone on this continent has heard the legend of the dragon, although he has not seen it, but the image of the dragon has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

The ancient beasts that are very difficult to deal with, if those orcs really do it, they don't know if those cities can still be defended?

Xiao Feng didn't take these things seriously, so he had to go to those half-orcs to find them, with guns and cannons in their hands, he really didn't believe it, he couldn't deal with those dragons.

"My lord, the soldiers have been resting for three days, should we withdraw our troops?"

Early that morning, Kyle and Bloom were having breakfast together, as Xiao Feng suggested.

Xiao Feng smiled and shook his head: "What's the matter? It's only been a few days, and it's only been a broken city, do you want to go back?"

Kyle and Bloom exchanged glances, and then Kyle said, "My lord, it's about to be winter, and the weather is getting colder by the day. It doesn't make much sense for us to continue our sweep north, and this time we have already achieved a lot of results. 100,000 humans were liberated, 100,000 orc slaves were captured, and countless goods and materials were captured. The strategic purpose of training troops and deterring orcs has been achieved, so there is no need to stay here. ”

If it was in the past, Xiao Feng would definitely listen to Kyle's dissuasion, but not this time.

Because of interrogating these orcs for several days, yesterday he finally got the news he wanted.

Three hundred kilometers into the forest, there is another city of python people, that city is bigger than this city under the forest, according to the confession of the captured python people, that big city Bala Han City!

It is a subordinate city belonging to the third prince of the python clan, Aido, where at least a million half-orcs of various races live, but mainly python people.

Xiao Feng's purpose in coming to the Otherworld this time was to wantonly loot important raw materials, and the venom of the snake that the python clan could get his hands on was an important raw material that he urgently needed.

This is about the new drug development plan of the He Fangzhou team!

If the new drug is successfully developed, it will be an epoch-making drug in the history of Huaguo Medicine!

After all, in modern history, in addition to artemisinin, Huaguo has not contributed any important drugs to the world medical community, but with this drug, Huaguo's pharmaceutical companies can finally straighten their waists and speak.

So if he hadn't taken the city, he wouldn't have gone back.

"Didn't we bring plenty of cold supplies with us when we set out, and we also captured a lot of them in this city, so we have plenty of supplies now, so don't worry. I know what you're afraid of, but don't worry, with me here, even if they summon that ancient beast, it's fine!"

Kyle and Bloom looked at each other, only shaking their heads and smiling bitterly.

has been with Xiao Feng for a few years, what kind of temperament Xiao Feng has, of course they know, even if they oppose what he recognizes, they can't do anything.

"Okay, let's not talk about retreat. Look at the map... ”

As Xiao Feng spoke, his subordinates took out a simple hand-drawn map and hung it on the wall.

This map is a simple schematic diagram of the secret forest drawn by the cartographer according to the explanations of several orcs.

There were mountains, rivers, forests, and a few large orc cities, but the closest to them was the city of Barahan.

"This city of Barahan is only 300 kilometers away from us, which is a day's journey. I want to take this city and go back. ”

Now that Xiao Feng has made up his mind, Bloom and Kyle will not mention the withdrawal of troops, but will try their best to assist Xiao Feng in formulating a battle plan.

After all, after defeating this Balahan City, Xiao Feng has no excuse not to withdraw his troops!

So they rested for another day, and then the army set out, but this time they marched lightly.

With only 30,000 troops and rations for five days, a large number of baggage and baggage teams remained in the city under the forest.

With the experience of the last siege, I believe that this Balahan city will not bother them for long.

Originally, they were expected to complete the journey in a day, but as soon as they hurried, they arrived at the foot of the city of Balahan at noon.

Unlike the castle under the forest, this Balahan City is a city in the forest, and the city is a mountain city in the middle of the rare open land in the secret forest.

Built on a hill, the city is surrounded by towering trees except for the south gate, which is surrounded by towering trees in all directions.

It's really hard to discover the city if there's no one to lead the way.

Xiao Feng asked the army to quickly rest in place, and at the same time, like last time, sent a messenger to the city wall to let the orcs surrender the city!

Far away, they all saw that the people in this city were very nervous!

Because it is a mountain city, the terrain of this city is very steep, and it is built on the mountain, and the city wall is not high, although the terrain is a little dangerous, but there is no too high city wall, it should be easy to attack the city.

Even in Xiao Feng's opinion, there is no need to enter the city at all, just set fire directly along the walls of this city, who let this city be surrounded by a circle of giant trees!

The mountain city looks very large, and there should be more than a million people in it, and there are many rout soldiers and refugees who have fled from the grassland and the city under the forest.

At this time, seeing Xiao Feng leading the human army to catch up, he could hear the cry of the establishment from a long distance.

Obviously, Shi Run has little confidence in holding this city!

This is evident from the fact that the messenger who obeyed the call went back and forth unharmed under the city walls, and finally retreated.

After another two hours, the human soldiers had finished their meals, and the people were almost rested, and the whistles of the sentinels of different lengths sounded in the military formation.

The human soldiers began to stand up and line up, preparing their equipment and weapons.

The orcs standing on the city wall even saw a strange iron box slowly opening out of the middle of the human phalanx.

There was no nonsense, first there was a flash of fire, and a red light erupted from the top of the iron box, and smashed directly into the city, and the orcs on the city wall looked back.

I saw that a mansion under the city wall was hit, where was the place where they usually slept at night, but after a loud bang.

There was a big pit more than two meters deep, and then there was nothing, the houses that could shelter from the wind and rain, and the pig-headed people who usually cooked for them, all disappeared.

Everyone grew their mouths, and when they turned their heads, they saw that there were continuous red lights spewing out from the top of the iron box, and then the red light was like a meteor, crossing the sky and flying straight into the city.

Behind the city wall was originally a neighborhood inhabited by python people, one kilometer long and one kilometer wide in all directions, and the residents here have strong men in the army, so the above will reward them with such a good place to live.

Usually this is the busiest place to be founded, because there is a large market where you can buy all kinds of things, including human slaves.

Many soldiers on the city wall usually like to come here the most, but when they see that series of meteors falling from the sky and hitting this neighborhood, a moment later. 、。。

This neighborhood, which is home to more than 10,000 people, has been completely razed to the ground, and the smoke and dust mixed with the heavy smell of blood have formed a strange smell, which drifts along the mountain wind to the city wall.

Soon the orcs guarding the wall all vomited, and now they finally understood why everyone else called the human mage the Reaper of Riverrun!

Xiao Feng put down the binoculars and was very satisfied with the results of TOS-1, this guy really deserved to be a big killer in the woolly bear collection.

Sure enough, it's a simple and rough woolly bear-style weapon, violent but easy to use.

At this time, there were more than a dozen soldiers, holding beaten bristle brushes, brushing the barrels of rocket launchers, and after brushing, they stuffed rockets into the barrels of the guns.

Originally, the woolly bear artillery did not have these two steps, they just had to load the shells in and fire them out.

But Xiao Feng is a private artillery after all, and he doesn't want to use it too wastefully, so it's not wrong that Jin is expensive at all, and it's not yet the time when he needs such high-density firepower coverage.

But just as he was adjusting the shooting boundary and preparing to let the orcs try the second round of meteor washing, he suddenly saw a white flag floating on the wall of the orc.

Then several large hanging baskets were slowly lowered from the city, and dozens of people came out of the hanging baskets.

These people walked towards him tremblingly with white flags, Xiao Feng raised his hand to signal to stop the attack, and let these people come over first.

Soon these people were brought to him, and the lead was a tall, lanky python man.

"You are His Excellency the Reaper of Riverrun?"

"Bold! Your nickname is what you can call you?"

"Bastard!"

Kyle and Bloom jerked their swords out, and the python man bowed his head in fright, then was kicked in the crook of his knee by the human guard, and fell to his knees.

"My lord, I am Karim, the chief advisor of Prince Aido, and I have come to meet you this time mainly to talk to you about the ransom fee!"

"Oh, ransom?"

This Ai Duo is so interesting, Xiao Feng thought with a smile.

"Okay, how much are you going to pay for the ransom?"

"We are willing to give out XXXX of gold, XXXX of jewelry, XXXX of grain and grass... ”

Listening to this guy's offer, it is obvious that they are very sincere, but only these are obviously not enough, Xiao Feng smiled slightly.

"Yes, yes, but it's better to add a ton of snake venom!"
