Chapter 833: Evacuation from the Permafrost (2)
Two more days passed.
In the front-line camp, in the largest room.
Beson the bear sat there with a big grin.
And in his hand, he was holding a stone that was not small.
Just this morning.
The mining site near the human camp was also discovered by them.
Although the mining site was empty.
But they found a lot of stones like this one in it.
By the way, it is worth mentioning that there are also quite a few stones like this in the warehouses of this front-line camp.
After shaking the stone with a small head in his hand.
Bessen got a little tired and threw the stone away.
With a muffled sound, the stone fell to the ground.
Cassin's eyelids jumped as he stood next to him.
Then Beson's bell-like voice was heard echoing through the room.
"No matter how you look at it, it's just a broken stone, what's the use?"
Cassin was a little unimpressed by Beson's words.
And the mouth is unhurried......
"Lord Besson, I don't think humans should be bored and do things that don't make sense."
"Since they are digging these stones on a large scale, and even hoarding them, it means that these stones must have some kind of use."
"It's just that we don't know this kind of use for the time being."
"This kind of thing, just go back and grab a human to come and ask."
Hearing this, Besson nodded.
"Yes, then let's keep it for now."
Speaking of this, Beson, who seemed to remember something again, spoke again......
"By the way, Cassin, how did you go?"
"Lord Beson, the fox people I sent out have already followed the trail along the way and roughly confirmed the location of the group of humans, and according to my estimate, they should be moving towards the next camp."
On the front line camp, large quantities of food are regularly delivered.
This is obviously known to their fox people.
Cassin deduced that there were other human camps, and it wasn't a difficult task.
Hearing this, Beison raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"It's almost time to rest, bring food, and start early tomorrow morning!"
Obviously, Beson, who has already broken through a camp, already has a number of human strength.
So he didn't have the next camp in mind at all.
At the same time, on the other side, with the efficiency of the sled.
After a long journey of several days.
Hill and the others finally arrived at the sentry camp.
What happened in the front-line camp happened too suddenly.
As a result, the troops stationed in the sentry camp did not receive any notice at all.
After seeing the members of the front-line troops who were basically wounded outside.
The members of the garrison looked a little dazed.
Then, after confirming his back, he quickly opened the entrance and let Ciel and the others in.
The group quickly poured into the camp.
It was different from the soldiers and workers who breathed a sigh of relief.
Hill's first thing to do was to quickly find the general stationed in this sentry camp and ask to write an urgent report.
In the front-line camp before, in order to evacuate as soon as possible, it can be said that they did not even have time to write a report.
And after escaping, there were no carrier pigeons, she wrote a report, and she couldn't send it.
Now it's finally a chance.
A flying pigeon passed a letter, flew directly out of the sentry camp, and flew quickly towards Mingjing City, far away in the Central Plains.
After sending out the flying pigeon herald, Hill, who was a little relieved, began to explain the situation to the generals stationed here.
Although there was already a vague expectation in my heart.
But when he heard with his own ears the news that the orc troops were attacking, the front-line camp had been breached.
The heart of the garrison general was still uncontrollably throbbing.
"Your Majesty, I have already explained in detail in the letter, just this little strength in the sentry camp will not be able to stop the orcs, and I ask the general to send a letter quickly, requesting the nearest White River City to send troops to support!"
After hearing this, the garrison generals didn't think about it.
Another letter was sent quickly.
After doing all this, everyone began to confirm the deployment of troops in the sentry camp.
Actually, there's not much to say.
After all, this is just a transit point.
Normally, there is a front-line camp in front of it.
In the sentry camp behind, there is naturally no need to deploy too many troops.
So the total number of troops on this side is only five hundred.
Sure enough, it's not enough!
However, this camp has an advantage that a front-line camp does not have.
That's the geographical advantage!
This stretch of the road from the mountains and forests of the Northland to the bitter cold land.
It is a long, narrow canyon.
And the sentry camp is in the depths of this canyon.
To increase the defense of this camp.
Goblin craftsmen also deliberately carved a passage into the mountain walls of the canyons on either side.
Archers, crossbowmen, and even three-bow bed crossbows can be placed on mountain walls to snipe enemies pouring in from outside.
This geographical advantage doomed the army to be difficult to attack.
It almost forms a natural fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack!
However, considering the fact that the number of troops is really limited.
I want to repel the orc army, but sure enough, it's still a fool's dream.
But it should be okay to stick to it for a while.
The order was issued, and the entire sentry fortress quickly entered the first-level alert state!
The weapons of the city on the walls of the mountains on both sides of the canyon began to be arranged and replenished.
The number of night patrols, guards, and perimeter reconnaissance troops has been directly doubled.
It's completely like a great enemy.
Two days passed.
The carrier pigeon flying to White River City is undoubtedly a step faster.
The letter for help from the sentry camp was directly delivered to Zhao Pan's eyes.
After a quick reading of the contents.
Zhao Pan's face sank......
"The orc troops are attacking, and the front-line camp has fallen, this is a letter asking for help from me."
Hearing this, Liu Tao, the deputy general standing aside, could be said to have changed his face suddenly.
"General, then I'm going to gather troops!?"
Zhao Pan, who heard this, was not busy giving permission.
Instead, he focused on the signature at the end of the letter.
A normal letter usually has only one letter's name, plus a public or private seal.
At the bottom of this letter, there are three signatures: Jiang Yan, the general stationed in the sentry camp, the head of the front-line camp, and Hill.
Among them, the first two signatures are stamped with seals.
This is a testament to the urgency and authenticity of the letter for help.
After confirming the signature and seal, Zhao Pan, who had thought for a while, nodded.
"Well, go ahead."
Obviously, he was planning to send troops to help.
While signaling Liu Tao to gather troops.
I got a new piece of letter paper and began to write letters.
This letter was a letter he wanted to send to Spiegel City to report the situation to Luo Ji.
I have to say that Zhao Pan's character is really cautious and calm to the extreme!
The update is sent, thank you for the reward of the book friend 'Lord King' and the monthly pass of the book friend 'See' and 'Look at the End of the World'!
