Chapter 598: Pull-out
"Okay, pull out!"
Seeing the high morale of the crowd, Thomas expressed his satisfaction, he nodded slightly to Cloud Shadow, and gave the order to leave the camp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
An army of nearly 7,000 men soon arrived at the place where Cloud Shadow led his troops to fight the werewolves, and the illusion here looked no different than before, and Stirley couldn't understand how she got lost in the vicinity in the first place - she could only say that Utherily's control of the illusion had been perfected, and I hope she didn't lose her chain this time.
"Let's stand by first!"
Liu Xi, as the supreme commander of this battle, spoke.
"What's wrong?"
Sterley asked.
"This plain is too big, and we don't know where the orc army will attack from, so this position is just right, not only to support the base camp at any time, but also to attack quickly after getting the news."
What Liu Xi said was reasonable, and he obviously did his homework, but his homework came from Yunying.
"Makes sense, but it's a pity that there is no shelter nearby, and it's really comfortable for so many people to stay here for one night."
As soon as Stellai's words fell, Cloud Shadow began to chant loudly: "Wall of Thick Earth! Walls of Earth! Walls of Earth! β
Even the druids who were very confident in nature magic were amazed at the three-sided earth walls that were ten meters long, three meters high, and one meter thick, but they were not to be outdone: "%#......&**&......%Β₯#!" οΏ₯%β¦β¦&*β
This is the unique magic of the druids, when a dozen druids finished chanting, several trees with huge leaf crowns grew on the high part of the three earthen walls released by the cloud shadow, which happened to become a roof that could shelter from the wind and snow, and then all the soldiers cheered, and everyone quickly gathered under the three corners of the earthen wall, it seems that everyone will not be afraid of the cold in a short time.
"Sister Yun, did you say that the orc army will really attack tonight? What if they don't come? β
Inevitably shaking the hearts of the army, Liu Xi, who was standing in the corner, looked at the dark plain and whispered to Yun Ying, he was also afraid that the latter's previous inference would be wrong.
"Objectively speaking, I can only say that there is this possibility, but coupled with my subjective judgment - with the great shaman's eyes and the temperament of no one and retribution, he will definitely not make a false shot, since he has released cruel words, I am seventy or eighty percent sure that he will act tonight, this is our last chance, if the orcs don't come today, we don't want to think about any victory - Thomas must also know this, not to mention anything else, we will not be able to carry it soon in the ice and snow, although he did not say it explicitly, But judging by his face, he shouldn't have collected any cold protection materials in the past two days. β
"Indeed, the thickest in the army is the quilt in the tent."
Stelai also joined the conversation.
"The most taboo thing on the battlefield is that there is no information available, and we are like this now, relying on the illusion set up by the druids alone - we have not found out the news of the orc activities, I asked the werewolf patriarch from the mouth of the location of the orc army, but they may make a detour to the other side to attack, so tonight is the time to compete for luck and speed, if the orcs are a tendon - they will meet us head-on, in case the great shaman chooses another way - We'll only be able to move after they've entered the environment and are spotted by the druids, and luckily their goblin scouts aren't really hardworking, and the orcs don't know the exact location of our camp, so their sluggish pace of exploration may give us an opportunity. β
After some analysis, Liu Xi and Stella continued to nod, and then Stella muttered and suddenly said, "I have an idea." β
"What is it?"
Liu Xi asked.
"The main reason we didn't send scouts before was because the orcs had a good sense of smell, and humans would smell it when they got closer, and it was impossible for our scouts to find out the available information and bring it back alive without being detected, but now it's different - the communication stone can be used."
Sterley glanced at Yun Ying and Liu Xi as he spoke, and the two of them frowned, obviously anticipating what he would say next: "With the Communication Stone, our scouts can touch very close to the orcs - as long as they can shout the orc's location at the Communication Stone before they die, they can buy time for our main force!" β
ββ¦β¦ But the scout had to die. β
Liu Xi said slowly after listening to Stelai's proposal.
"War - there are no immortals, let alone so that more people can survive."
Sterley said coldly.
"How many scouts do you think you're going to send?"
Liu Xi agreed with Stelai's approach, but in fact it was inevitable - the value of a small number of people and the majority of people never needed to be measured.
"We'll have to see how many communication stones there are."
Cloud Shadow suddenly interjected.
"My original troops, that is, the people you are bringing with you now, have twenty communication stones in their hands, which were equipped before the Northern Army came, and the same is true in Stelai's troops."
Liu Xi thought for a while and said.
"That's right, I still have two communication stones on me."
Sterley echoed as he touched his body.
"I've got five on meβlet's pick forty of them, and we'll have a few of the remaining Transmission Stones to spare."
Cloud Shadow touched his bracer with storage function and suggested.
"Okay, that's it."
As the supreme commander of the battle, Liu Xi made the final decision, and the three-person group meeting ended - Liu Xi turned to tell the truth to the gathered soldiers.
"Brothers, our situation is very uncertain now, and we need to send forty scouts, but these scouts must go deep into the barren plains to find out the movements of the main orc force, which means that you must be very close to the orc army...... With their sense of smell and the speed of their attacks, these scouts must be dead-"
Liu Xi looked around at everyone and said, "We will equip the forty communication stones distributed in the army to those forty scouts, even if they are discovered by the orcs, you will have to pass the information back!" β
Liu Xi's words were very vague, what would happen if he was discovered by the orcs? Everyone knew it, and for a while, the team of nearly 7,000 people was quiet.
"Whoever has the communication stone in hand should put the things in the open space in front of them first, and we will determine the scout candidates through blind selection."
Stirley broke the deadlock a moment later, and I have to say that he is really a military advisor.
Listening to Stelai's words, some people in the army began to move, and after a while, forty soldiers of the Northern Army walked up to Yun Ying and the others, behind them were the silent Pao Ze brothers, and in front of them were the three commanders with serious faces, and for a while, no one stepped forward to hand over the communication stone.
