Chapter 81: Preparing for Fishing

The convoy was attacked in the middle of the night, and as soon as they fought the Terran guards, they fell to the upper hand.

The guards were completely suppressed by the Demon Ape Clan warriors, and the cavalry battalion that rushed out was raided by the orc leopard cavalry, and they suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

The Terran wildebeest cavalry and the orc wolf cavalry could barely compete, but the faster and more powerful leopard cavalry were completely crushed, and the Terran cavalry kept falling in the melee between the two races.

The soldiers of the escort battalion had a numerical advantage, but they couldn't even rush out of the camp, and as soon as they rushed out, they were shot back by a rain of arrows from the demon ape warriors.

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, Arthur, who had been lying on the ground, instantly guessed that there must be an internal ghost within the Frost Thunder Legion. The orc's targeting was too obvious, and it was clear that they were using the Demon Ape Warrior to lure the Frost Thunder Cavalry out.

The number of demon ape warriors and leopard cavalry who raided was not large, only about two hundred, but they were all the strongest and elite tribal warriors among the orcs. Such orc warriors are by no means something that hundreds of Terran guards can deal with, and even if Arthur and a few of them reveal their identities and go all out, they may not be able to protect the convoy.

What's more, Arthur didn't plan to make a move at all, he wanted to see who was standing behind these two powerful orc hunting teams.

Arthur suddenly whistled loudly, and Huey and Goley, who were fighting with the Leopard Cavalry in the Terran cavalry, suddenly burst out of fighting spirit, stabbing several leopard cavalry in front of them under their horses.

Then he turned his horse's head and ran away under the astonished gaze of the human and beast cavalry, and as he passed Arthur and Arya, he dragged them onto their horses.

At the same time, Joan and Moral also rode out of the camp, and the two cunning fellows did not charge with the cavalry battalion at all.

The Terran cavalry was already close to collapse in the melee with the Leopard Cavalry, and the behavior of several people fleeing from the battle dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Terran cavalry, and they instantly collapsed under the impact of the Leopard Cavalry.

Because of Arthur's previous bad example, the Terran cavalry began to flee in all directions after being defeated, and only a few warriors were ready to fight to the death in the face of the orc siege.

The cavalry unit was scattered, and the soldiers of the convoy trapped in the camp were doomed. Many soldiers were ready to defend to the death under the leadership of the battalion commander, and some soldiers who were greedy for life and afraid of death escaped directly from under the truck.

To each his own life. These soldiers may be able to escape the pursuit of the orcs, and I am afraid that they will also carry the shackles of their hearts in this life.

Arthur and the others felt that they were not burdened, but their feelings were equally sad, after all, it was their comrades in the army who died in battle.

This is the first time Arthur arrived in the Frost Thunder Legion, and he has no feelings for these warriors, otherwise according to his character, he will definitely fight to the death with the orcs with the warriors.

Arthur and the others didn't actually get far from the battlefield before they stopped, then sat down and began to wait for the battle to end.

"Are you sure your method works?" asked Golly, still a little worried.

Arthur smiled slightly, "Don't worry. This time it was grain that was robbed, this is the control area of the Frost Thunder Legion, they must not be able to transport such a large amount, they will definitely find a place to hide it first, or someone will help them deal with it, as long as they follow this batch of goods, there will definitely be big fish biting. ”

So none of them spoke again, waiting patiently to see what they could wait for in the end?

After about an hour, Arthur suddenly stood up, "The truck is back on the road, let's get ready to go." ”

Arya looked at Arthur with some surprise, she was getting more and more unable to understand him now, "How do you know the van is on the road again?"

"Secret. Arthur smiled and deliberately avoided the question.

Arthur, of course, couldn't tell Arya that he was using the dark magic "Dark Perception". As a full-fledged magician, after three years of getting along with Arnold, Arthur naturally learned a few practical dark magic from Arnold, but the level was not high, and Arthur didn't dare to use it casually.

In order to avoid being discovered by the orcs, Arthur and the others even abandoned their mounts, and always kept them at the maximum distance that the "dark sense" could vaguely sense.

Several people followed from a distance, and found that the transport convoy was actually going in the direction when they were coming, and after walking a distance, they went down the official road from a small road, and then went all the way north.

The convoy traveled well into the middle of the night, and only when it was about to light up did the hijacked convoy stop.

The place where the orcs stopped was a deserted hill. Arthur estimated the distance, it was at least thirty kilometers away from the place where the convoy was robbed, and it would be difficult to find it if he didn't follow it all the way.

"I'm getting closer to scout the situation, you stay here and wait for me. Arthur told him and prepared to touch it himself.

Golly immediately followed, "I'll go with you, and many people will take care of each other." ”

"It's too dangerous. ”

"Don't think that you're good at reconnaissance and stealth, it's almost dawn, and your "shadow stealth" may not be better than this girl's reconnaissance skills. "No one can resist Golly's temper.

"You two don't fight, there's movement on the orc's side. Joan abruptly interrupted the argument.

Faint, jumble footsteps rang out, and the orc troops were moving towards where they were.

"Discovered!" was an instantaneous thought in everyone's mind.

"Hit or run?" said Moral's voice, a little trembling. He was the only one of the few who had not experienced a life-and-death battle with an orc.

"Don't worry, it's not necessarily coming to us, let's retreat to the side. ”

At Arthur's suggestion, several people slowly retreated into the wilderness with their bodies on their backs, and the wild grass could completely cover the figures of several people.

The orcs of the brigade walked fifty or sixty meters in front of them, and they didn't even glance at where they were hiding.

"Gone?"

"Why did they leave empty-handed, and what did they rob?"

"What do we do next?"

The sudden departure of the orcs stunned everyone.

"Let's split up, Golly and Huey, you two follow these orcs, and see where they end up? I'll take Joan and them to the col to see what's going on inside?" Arthur made a decision in an instant.

"How do you meet?" asked Golly the most crucial question.

"Mark with a march. ”

Golly nodded, and Huey quickly followed the path the orcs had taken.

If the four of them split up, Huey would be Goley's best partner, because he rarely speaks and expresses his opinions, making him a perfect fighter. If Joan or Moral were to partner with Golly, it would be possible to mess things up if there was a disagreement.

After waiting for a while, no more orcs came out of the col, and Arthur and the others slowly touched the col.

The closer you get to the col, the faster your heart beats, what secrets do the orcs hide inside?
