Chapter 103: The King's Disqualification (11)
The late autumn night was already cold, and the two who didn't dare to light a fire in order to keep warm had to choose a cave in the wall where wild bears sheltered from the winter to hide their whereabouts.
"Carlos, now you can talk about what you are going to do. Danderma finished the work of hiding and sweeping the tracks, returned to the hiding place, and finally asked curiously.
"For himself and for the alliance" used an immature skill, and Carlos, who had a sequelae, stared at the pitch-black top of the cave with wide eyes.
"I think it's strange that you're going to join the death squad, and it's even stranger to ask me to help you hide your whereabouts. Danderma lay on the ground, squirming and trying to make herself as comfortable as she could.
"You know, there are some things that you can't do if you understand them, some things that you can do but don't dare to do, some things that you have to know to do, and some things that you can only do but not say. Do you understand what I say?" Carlos replied.
"You're enough, talk well, or don't ask me for help. Although he knew that Carlos was not in the right state, Dandelmar still found this kind of specious statement to sound very uncomfortable.
"Because of responsibility. Carlos thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a suitable word to express his thoughts.
"Uh-huh?" Dandemar replied noncommittally.
"As a general of the Alliance, I have received an order from Supreme Commander Lothar to defend the town of Nanhai. But as the eldest son of the Barov family and a nobleman of Alterak, I have other things to deal with. As an aristocrat, I am the beneficiary of the rules, so I can't break the rules. Carlos felt that his sanity was gradually returning to his body, and after the excitement, there was a deep exhaustion.
"I thought we had enough at the top of the Night Elves, and there were a lot of you humans. After hearing this, Dandemar suddenly felt bored and stopped asking.
"Now I just hope that Herni Mareb will live up to my expectations. Not knowing if he said this to Danderma Blue Feather or to himself, Carlos closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap.
And at this moment in Nanhai Town, the mages were already exhausted after continuing to cast spells at high intensity. After being hit by the storming of the Metri Scroll, they were basically resting, and the captains of Carlos's wings found that their general had not returned, and panic was inevitable.
"Tell me clearly, what's going on with the general?" Imir asked the members of the death squad who had returned safely.
"After the General succeeded in destroying the Horde's conspiracy, he broke through with Master Dandema. The scene was chaotic at that time, and the general's order was to disperse and break through the siege and return to the camp on his own. "The daredevils are tired, but they are in good spirits. He proudly considered it an epic victory, and he was a witness and participant in history.
"So the general was safe and sound at the beginning of the evacuation?" asked the Wing Commander of the Second Wing.
"Yes, those evil and incompetent orcs and ogres cannot be the general's opponents. The general only had a minor accident. The death squad's confidence in Carlos did not infect the other commanders.
"You can go down and rest, Warrior. The captain of the 1st Wing saluted the members of the death squad who had been summoned for questioning, and the other party returned the salute and left with his head held high.
Although Carlos had left an order for the Independence Corps to be temporarily commanded by Herni Mareb if he was unable to exercise command, the arrogant Wing Commanders were not willing to obey the command of a village mayor.
The altercation continued into the middle of the night, and it was not until John Swain, the acting captain of the Fifth Wing, returned to Southsea and brought back Carlos' password.
"Your Excellency the General has attracted a large number of enemies to the north in order for everyone to break through smoothly, and it may not be possible to turn back smoothly in a short time, but with Master Dandema accompanied, there should be no surprise. Before we dispersed, the general had an order for me to convey to everyone. The general said that Heni Mareb was a good warrior who had proven himself on the battlefield of Hinterland, and hoped that we would obey his orders and stabilize the defense of the town of Nanhai, and that the Horde would never be allowed to succeed. The general also said that if someone makes a small move and causes any accident in Nanhai Town, he will face the punishment of the alliance and the wrath of the Barov family. ”
John Swain's words finally cemented the temporary command of Henie Mareb, and the young mayor of Southsea was moved and determined not to fail Carlos's trust.
Early the next morning, the angry horde retaliated against the town of Nanhai, and Herni Mareb displayed a very different command style from Carlos. Luring the enemy deep, flanking and trapping, with tactics such as trench maneuvering and fire wall blocking, the defenders of Nanhai Town played a fairly good-looking battle loss exchange ratio.
Henie Mareb initially won the respect and recognition of the commanders of the Independence Corps.
At this time, Carlos was in a state of weakness that was about to die, and he was weak enough to eat the grilled fish that Danderma had gotten.
"Yesterday was so powerful, how powerful was that move of the Great Sword of Holy Light that fell from the sky, why does it look like a ghost today?" asked Dandemar puzzled.
"If I really want to be that powerful, I would have ridden a thousand horses and rampaged through the orc army. That's my strength overdrawn by using a little trick of self-hypnosis and psychological suggestion. It's the same as taking medicine, after the effect of the medicine has passed, the person will be cowardly. Carlos ate numbly, feeling dry and bitter in his mouth, and he couldn't taste the grilled fish at all.
After a short meal, the two of them continued to walk north, hurrying all the way, and finally felt the highest peak located a hundred miles northeast of Nanhai Town when the sun was setting in the west.
It is said that the highest peak, but only for the hills of Hillbride, this large earth bag with an altitude of more than 300 meters looks very tall against the backdrop of a number of small hills.
Carlos and Danderma climbed to the top of the hill and found an old friend waiting for them.
"Yo, my friend, I thought you wouldn't be here, but Kudran and Snow Fury arrived within three days as agreed. Kudran Brutehammer was combing the feathers of his winged friend Snowfury at the top of the mountain, and when he saw someone coming from the top of the mountain, he immediately stood up, and Snowfury turned his head to look at the visitor, and chirped twice to say hello.
"I knew the Hammer Dwarves were good brothers to trust. Kudran, it's hilarious to see you. Carlos smiled, walked over and knelt on the ground and gave Kudran a big hug.
"Hey, Carlos, my friend, you don't look good. Kudran looked at Dandemar suspiciously.
"It's okay, let's talk about it later, can Snow Fury fly with me and Dandema?" asked Carlos off the subject.
"Hey, you're suspicious of Snow Fury! Look at the claws, look at the horned beak, look at the wings, and the answer is yes, of course!" Kudran replied in the affirmative, fiddling with Snow Fury.
"Then please send us to Keldaron, thank you, my brother. Carlos said his request.
