Chapter 48 Tripartite Reaction
As soon as Hicks' side moved, Arthur's side immediately received the news.
In fact, Arthur's original plan against the orcs had failed.
Because strategies such as night raids and ambushes did not have a high success rate in the face of elite orc escorts, Arthur and the others had decided to start with the orc scouts. In addition to testing the strength of the escort team, he wanted to use it as bait to weaken Hicks' escort force first.
There were not no wise men among the orcs, who no longer dispersed their forces after losing a troop of scout cavalry, and made the last thing Arthur wanted to see.
Once the other side is on guard, the sneak attack and ambush methods commonly used by the cavalry regiment will no longer have the effect of surprise.
Although the other party moved overnight, he did not walk in a panic, and the speed was the same as usual, but the scout shrank back a little. JosΓ©, who had been keeping an eye on Hicks' convoy, reported on the orcs' movements.
"It seems that the other party is not really surprised, it is more like a strategic transfer. Golly analyzed on the side. As the daughter of the general, Golly actually has an advantage over Arthur in terms of strategic command.
Just like in the squad, Joan and Huey never participated in decision-making, and the decisions on action and direction were basically based on the discussion between Golly and Arthur, and occasionally asked for the opinions of others.
Now they seem to be back to their previous team mode, but Arthur is holding his shoulders and frowning and not saying anything.
Golly continued: "The other party already knows that he is being targeted, so he must do it, otherwise once the other party has support, we will have no chance. β
Arthur still didn't say anything.
Golly's face began to sink, "I know what you're thinking, but if Ci doesn't take charge of the troops, there will definitely be casualties in such a dangerous operation! β
"They weren't just my soldiers, they were my brothers, and I promised to take them home as much as I could. Arthur said in a deep voice.
"I advise you not to be so naΓ―ve, our opponent this time is not the weak Wind Bandit, but the strongest orc warrior Golden Lion Guard, it is simply wishful thinking to assassinate the prince of the Golden Lion Family without paying any price!" Gori's words were a little mean, but they expounded an irrefutable fact, how could there be only one side of the war that died?
"Does this have to be done?" Arthur hesitated.
"Either you give up and go ahead and that's the best option at the moment. β
Arthur closed his eyes and whispered, "This time, you will lead the team." β
......
In the night-shrouded wasteland, there were still a few pairs of glowing eyes staring at the convoy slowly moving on the ancient road in the distance.
"Hicks is ready to transfer, Arthur and those Terran cavalry won't give up, right?" asked Shara in a whispered voice full of suspicion.
"Probably not, Arthur's kid has had a sense of adventure since he was a child, and he was careless in order to successfully sneak attack me, and he even did not hesitate to be beaten by me and bled all over his face. β
Leon remembered the events of the past, when his mother was still there, and Arthur was the opponent and sparring partner that his mother specially selected for himself among the many Terran children. At first, Leon was dismissive of the skinny little Terran boy, but it seems that since then, Arthur has not suffered any major losses in the battle against himself.
"This Terran kid really doesn't know how to die, and after sacking a few medium-sized tribes, he feels that he has the ability to deal with the heirs of the Golden Lion Family, and if they die, we will not have to do it ourselves. One-Eye cursed viciously behind him.
Leon glared back at One-Eye, who immediately shut up in amusement.
"If, I mean, Arthur and their operation is really successful, will you help them out?" asked Shara softly.
"Of course!" Leon replied in the affirmative, only with a slight sneer on his face, "It's not just about keeping promises, but more importantly, it's about creating a Terran opponent for Elliot and the Golden Lion Family, and the pressure on us will be much easier." β
......
Red Rock City, the camp of the Blizzard Legion.
The table in front of Morar was full of food, and the middle-aged lieutenant sitting directly across from him was smiling.
Moral has finally found a sense of respect again, and the past two months have been nothing short of looking back. You must know that the lieutenant in front of him has followed the deputy commander of Keno for many years, and he doesn't even give face to many division commanders.
The only thing Moral couldn't understand was why the other party suddenly became so polite, and he shouldn't have been able to get such respect for the money he gave away, right? Is it because the relationship between Huey and Golly has worked?
"I heard you're friends with Huey?" the middle-aged lieutenant chatted seemingly casually.
Moral seemed to have found the reason, and immediately climbed up the pole, patted his chest and said, "Huey and I have the same relationship as a brother!"
"That's great, do you know what other friends Huey has? I mean the kind that is so good that it's even fatal. The middle-aged lieutenant continued to ask quietly.
Morar laughed, "No kidding, that guy still has friends?" and his answer was almost the same as Keno's.
The middle-aged lieutenant frowned, and simply said directly: "Huey suddenly left the barracks the day before yesterday, and he only left a letter saying that he was going to help his friends? Do you know where he might go and who to help?" Deputy Commander Keno was very worried about his safety. β
Moral was also stunned, "Gone, this guy has no friends with Ben?"
"Aren't you his brother?"
Morar knew he had missed something, and hurriedly went back to make up for it, "I mean, he doesn't have a friend other than my brother. β
"We checked afterwards, and there was also Gori, the daughter of Grand Duke Ross, who went with Huey, and there was another one named Joan, all of whom were students sent by your Blood Yao Academy to the Wind and Snow Legion this time. You've known them before, right?"
The shock in Moral's heart is indescribable, how did these strange flowers come to the Wind and Snow Army?
If he hadn't reacted to who Huey was going to help before, now he instantly understood what was going on, there was only one person who could bring these three people together at the same time!
Morar immediately pretended to be confused, "I know but I know, but I don't know too well, how can I know where they went?"
The middle-aged lieutenant stared into Moral's eyes, "You really don't have any clues?"
Morar shook his head, "I just arrived at the Blizzard Legion, and I haven't even seen any of them, how can I know where they're going?"
The middle-aged lieutenant sighed, "Since it's useless to keep you like this, come on, lock you up directly." β
As soon as the lieutenant's voice fell, four tall and sturdy soldiers rushed in from outside the camp tent, obviously arranged a long time ago.
"What do you mean, why are you arresting people?" Moral was really confused this time.
The middle-aged lieutenant sneered, "Bribing the army commander, this alone is enough for you for half a year." β
Several fighters came up and grabbed Moral by the arm and dragged them out.
When he was about to be dragged out of the camp, Morar cried out, "Don't blame me, Boss Arthur, I have no choice but to do this!"
