Chapter 948: The Dwarven Pursuit Force

At six o'clock in the morning on July 23, 1176, the dwarf sitting in the Legion Commander's position in the Dwarven Hammer Barracks on the border between the dwarves and the dark elves heard the report of his subordinates, and he walked up to his subordinates in a rage, grabbed his subordinates' collars, and said loudly: "What! You lost that human caravan, what the hell is going on?"

The dwarf, who was being carried by the Legion Commander, could not answer his Legion Commander, but the dwarf who looked like a military advisor in the camp realized that the Legion Commander's emotions were too high for his soldiers to answer, so he whispered a reminder to the Legion Commander.

Hearing the reminder of the military advisor, the dwarven legion leader let go of his hand, and then said to his subordinates who kept breathing fresh air that if there was any concealment, it would be dealt with by military law!

The dwarven soldier, breathing heavily, heard his own captain's words, and he hurriedly told what he knew.

Since three days ago, their Dwarven Earth Flame Insect Cavalry Brigade and the Dgu Bone Worm Master under the command of the Dwarf King, as well as dozens of domesticators, have tracked the human smuggling armed caravan, whether it is the elves summoning vines or the human cavalry taking the initiative to attack, they have all coped with it well, just waiting for the army to gather and arrive to annihilate the smuggling caravan.

However, what the Earth Flame Cavalry did not expect was that the Scout Worm of the Master of the Ancient Bone Worm was suddenly discovered by the human mage and caused the entire army to be wiped out, and then they actually led them into the vine trap with the traces left by the human caravan.

Fortunately, at that time, Master Degu Bone Worm used the army of bugs to quickly dispose of all the vines, but Master Degu Bone Worm did not expect that humans were too cunning to poison the vines, and as a result, Master Degu Bone Worm's army of bugs was almost wiped out, and Master Degu Bone Worm himself also fell into a coma because of the backlash.

The commander of the Iron Hammer Legion was really shocked when he heard his subordinates say that the Degu Bone Worm Master thought that the Reverse Devouring had fallen into a coma, and he was really shocked;

So the commander of the Iron Hammer Legion asked his subordinates what kind of poison could poison Master Degu Bone Worm's insect army was also poisonous insects;

The soldier who reported the situation reported to the legion commander that the humans did not use poison to poison the insect army of Master Degu Bone Worm, but used the antidote to kill all the insect army.

The Captain of the Iron Hammer Legion didn't read much, and he couldn't understand why the antidote could kill Master Degu's Poisonous Worm Army?

Fortunately, the soldiers explained that according to the pharmacist they sent, the poisonous insects of the master of Degu bone worms ate poison to convert their own toxins, but the antidote just broke the transformation mechanism in the poisonous insects' bodies, and as a result, they were poisoned to death by themselves.

And the Degu Bone Worm Master used his spiritual power to sign a contract with the high-ranking poisonous insects in the Poisonous Insect Legion, and as a result, the death of those high-ranking poisonous insects directly reflected on the Degu Bone Worm Master, and the pharmacist said that whether the Degu Bone Worm Master can survive depends on the will of the God of War.

After listening to the report on the situation of Master Degu Bone Worm, the Captain of the Hammer Army regretted that he had known that he would have known that there would be such a situation, and he would definitely not let Master Degu Bone Worm participate in this mission to intercept human smuggling caravans, after all, Master Degu Bone Worm's role in dealing with the battlefield of fallen elves completely exceeded the role of the Hammer Legion.

After hearing the remorse of the legion leader, the military advisor on the side said that he should first find out how the human smuggling caravan disappeared, and find the human smuggling caravan as soon as possible to arrest it, otherwise they will all face the punishment of the dwarf king.

When the legion commander heard the words of the military advisor, he also felt very reasonable, so he hurriedly asked the reporting soldiers, how did the human smuggler disappear?

The debriefing soldiers told their legion commander that their Bug Cavalry Brigade had lost the surveillance of the human smuggling caravan since the fall of Master Degu Bone Worm, so they sent a reconnaissance team to monitor the human smuggling caravan at close range.

When the scout soldiers arrived at the location of the human beings just now, they followed through the ground tracks, and soon came to a place where there were more than a dozen tunnels crossing the land, and they found that there were traces of human smuggling caravans at every intersection, so they divided their forces to follow, but soon after 500 meters, all the traces left by the human smuggling caravans in all tunnels disappeared.

Of course, they also returned to investigate the traffic tunnel, but they didn't find anything wrong.

After listening to the soldier's story, the Hammer Legion's advisor asked one of the dwarves to take out a map and ask the soldier to point out the missing crossings.

When the debriefing soldier pointed out the missing human smuggling caravan crossing tunnel, the military advisor asked the debriefing soldier how many intersections there were in the intersection.

The debriefing soldier thought about it carefully, and there were six tunnels that meant that the humans had disappeared, that is, there were seven tunnels except for one entry.

Then when the military advisor heard the words of the reported soldiers, he looked at the map and said that it was not right, because his map was standard eight, after all, the map of the legion was recorded in great detail.

When the commander of the Hammer Legion heard the words of the military division, he also saw that there were nine lines on the map, so he asked the military division what was the matter?

The military advisor pointed to the map and said, "The human smuggling caravan must have earth magicians and clansmen who understand this area very well, they first solved the Degu bone worm master, so that we can't spy on them, so that we will not only become blind, but also very anxious to find the human smuggling caravan as soon as possible!"

And the human smuggling caravan took advantage of our impatience principle, and they sent people to make traces to induce our reconnaissance legion to make the wrong choice, so that they would have enough time to escape!"

When the Legion Commander heard the words of the military advisor, he said with an annoyed face that the humans were too cunning, and expressed his frustration that he would accept the punishment of the Dwarven King, after all, in two days, the human smuggling caravan had run away, and it was impossible for them to chase after him.

However, the military dwarf who looked at the map carefully on the side said that they still had a chance, in his words, the human smuggling caravan had a lot of goods, and the scale was also large, and they would definitely not walk too fast, and their cavalry would definitely be able to catch up with them.

When the Legion Commander heard the words of the military advisor, he did not hesitate to let the debriefing soldier inform the Dwarven Worm Cavalry to reach the intersection where the human smuggling caravan had disappeared.

At the same time, the commander of the Iron Hammer Legion summoned all the cavalry in the legion of 3,000, so that there were 4,000 cavalry to solve the human smuggling caravan that was only a little more than 3,000 more than enough, so the commander of the very confident Iron Hammer Legion took the military division and 3,000 cavalry to the location of the traffic tunnel where the human smuggling caravan disappeared.

It was six o'clock in the evening, and at this moment, all the 4,000 cavalry of the Iron Hammer Legion had arrived at the area where the human smuggling caravan had disappeared.

The Hammer Legion's advisor found two closed tunnels through the map, and through observation, he found that one of the closed tunnels was indeed the work of the magician, and it would be difficult for people to find out if it weren't for the loss of magic that made the closed walls crack.

Two junctions have been found, and the commander of the Hammer Legion asks the Legion's Hercules to smash the wall with a hammer.

Soon the closed walls of the two intersections were smashed open, but there were traces of caravans left at both intersections, which also made the legion commander not know which way to choose, and now the legion commander was worried that the division of troops could not defeat the human smuggling caravan, after all, the human smuggling caravan was still armed with some strength from the intelligence.

Seeing that the commander of the legion hesitated and didn't know how to choose, he said that this was the last inducement of the human smuggling caravan, and said that as long as ten scouts at each intersection walked one kilometer, they would know which route the human smuggling caravan took.

After about three minutes, the reconnaissance soldiers in the south tunnel rushed back to report to the corps commander that the traces of the human smuggling caravan in the south tunnel had disappeared without a trace at five or six hundred meters, so they judged that the enemy should go to the north tunnel.

The commander of the Hammer Legion heard the report from the Tunnel Scouts to the south, and he did not hesitate to order the march to the North Tunnel.

However, the military division who followed the commander of the corps wanted to say something, and finally gave up following the large army to the North Tunnel.

It was only when the Iron Hammer Legion reached the North Tunnel for nearly 500 meters that they found that their reconnaissance was in a bitter battle surrounded by vines.

The Hammer Legion saw that their men were being attacked by vines, and they rushed forward before the Legion Commander could give the order.

In the past ten minutes of fighting, the Iron Hammer Legion has saved the surrounded reconnaissance companions, but their progress is not optimistic, their willingness is very simple, the tunnel space is limited, and most of the dwarves are blunt weapons and muskets, and the efficiency of vine attacks is very poor.

The Hammer Legion's advisor soon noticed that the advance was too slow, so he suggested that the Legion Commander let the blunt dwarves in front of him step back and let the blade brothers get up, so that they could speed up, otherwise they wouldn't be able to catch up with the human smuggling caravan at all!

Hearing the reminder of the military advisor, the commander of the Iron Hammer Legion also knew that what the military advisor said was good, and at the same time, he thought of something and said that it was better to use a blade weapon to burn all the annoying vines in front of him with a fire!

When the commander heard the commander's proposal to attack with fire, he hurriedly stopped it, saying that attacking with fire would be a waste of time, after all, once the fire was attacked, it would have to wait for the fire to be extinguished before moving forward, and the enemy wished that they would attack with fire.

Hearing the explanation of the military advisor, the corps commander had no choice, he asked the dwarves with blunt weapons on the front line to come down, and let the dwarves with blades come forward, and at the same time ordered the harvesting of vines in a unified manner.

Half an hour later, the Hammer Legion passed through the vine area, and they followed the trail of human smuggling caravans on the ground.

After a long pursuit, the Hammer Legion finally caught up with the human smuggling caravan at twelve o'clock the next night, but they were faced with a convoy of a dozen humans and a dwarve.

The Captain of the Hammer Legion knew that they had been diverted from the mountain by a cunning human smuggling caravan, and the Captain of the Hammer Legion was very unwilling, but he still ordered the decoy in front of him to be captured so that he could hand over to the Dwarven King.

However, in the face of the capture of the dwarven legion, the leading young man on the human side directly threw out a large number of seeds, which quickly grew into vines to block the dwarven legion, and then he asked everyone to put down their hands and start to evacuate.

In the face of the vine blockade, the leader of the Iron Hammer Legion directly picked up the big sword of the guards beside him, and then asked everyone to get out of the way, and then he came to the front and directly cut off most of the vines.

The human leader didn't seem to expect the dwarf leader to come to this move, but he also reacted quickly, he pulled out his black sword to block the dwarf leader's blow, and repelled the dwarf leader with his strength, and threw the torch directly at the vine area in front of the dwarf leader, when the torch met the vine, it burned quickly, forcing the dwarf leader back at once.

By the time the flames were extinguished, the creatures who had been used as bait by the human smuggling caravans had disappeared without a trace, and the dwarven legionnaire who had been burned yelled angrily to vent his unwillingness.
