Chapter 71: Making a big fuss
Stone led the orc troops and galloped all the way, soon reaching the edge of the forest to the north, where a large area of trees had been cut down, but the "lumber yard" where the butt boy worked was nowhere to be found, leaving only a few thatched huts.
Since the location of the sub-base was set in the abandoned Dwarven Fortress, Stone has moved the "Lumber Yard" to its vicinity, next to the "Quarry", and the wood is everywhere anyway, so it is closer to other buildings for easy management.
The rest of the huts were too lazy to tear down, leaving them for the "Death Creepers" patrolling the mountain passes to the north as a resting place.
But at this time, all the stone could see was the empty grass hut, and the goblin riders riding giant spiders were nowhere to be seen, not even the goblin Eagle Eye who led them.
The goblin lord's face sank, and he had to urge his orc boys to speed up their pace and continue to run northwest along a hidden forest path.
I don't know how many times this road has been walked in the past four years, or it was originally trampled out by the children of the "Broken Claw Tribe", and it is so familiar that it can't be more familiar, just hurry up.
It was nearly dusk when they set out, and by the time they reached the valley where the "Ironforge Fort" was located, the sun had risen for a new day.
The valley is quiet in the morning light, with only the babbling of the mountains and the occasional noise of early birds, but it does not spoil the picturesque landscape, but rather makes it more vibrant.
Instead, it was the orcs' breathless breathing and chaotic footsteps that broke the silence.
When the stone saw this beautiful picture, a big stone finally fell in his heart.
The worst didn't happen, everything seemed to be unharmed, and he was afraid that by the time he arrived, it would be a ruin, or a Shura field.
the hair! Looks like the hoofs haven't discovered this yet.
Almost at the same time as the stone appeared, more than a dozen black shadows suddenly appeared in the woods on both sides, and when they looked at it, they were all their own people.
They are all forest goblins in the tribe, and it seems that they were arranged by the old rotten teeth to keep watch outside, and when they saw the figure of the leader and the orc warriors, they appeared one after another, and stepped forward to see the boss.
These goblin boys, who are good at moving in the forest, have a yellowish complexion, have feathers on their heads, and hold wooden short bows in their hands, and they are quite similar to the Indians of the past life.
Seeing their stones, they were more relieved, and asked a few words casually, knowing that although the "Iron Fort Fort" had entered a state of alert, there was nothing unusual around, but they didn't know the specific situation, and they didn't know until they saw the old rotten teeth.
Telling them to continue to lie in ambush in the woods and keep watch, the stone also continued to walk with the orcs to the familiar cave.
This place is still the same as before, there is no change, this is also a careful eye he deliberately plays, even if someone passes by from a distance, they will only think that this is the cave of some beast, and will not think too much.
Now that I think about it, this decision was so correct that maybe it was because of this that the beasts didn't find out about it.
Entering the cave, the stone encountered many night goblins in black robes riding red Squigg, who were currently the main cavalry unit in the territory, the Squigg Jumpers.
According to local conditions, the forest goblins are responsible for the guards outside, and when they go underground, it is the world of these little ones who like the dark.
The cave Squigg under their crotch can walk on the ground even in the cave, plus the night goblin itself has excellent night vision, with them stationed in the "Iron Fort Castle", the stone is still very reassuring, but the number is too small, accumulated for four years, a total of only one hundred and eighty, and thanks to the attribute bonus of the small fist, otherwise it will definitely be less.
After passing through the widened and reinforced passage, before you reach the fortress, you can see the old shaman and the night goblin retinue coming out to greet them after receiving the news.
Old Rotten Tooth and Skarsnick immediately laughed from ear to ear when they saw the stone and the fierce orc men behind him, with the expression of bitter and hateful fellows meeting their relatives Red Army soldiers.
I was also moved when I saw the stone, and then stepped forward and scolded:
"Lost! Old rotten teeth, let you write a letter, I don't know how to write it clearly, just a few words, scared Lao Tzu to death, what the hell is going on! ”
The old goblin grinned, and hastened to reply:
"Boss, it's not that I don't want to write, your password is too troublesome, just those few words, I wrote it for a long time."
He also knew the temper of the stone, although he was scolding himself, but he obviously still cared about our subordinates, and as soon as he received the news, he immediately ran over, and their hearts were also warm.
The old rotten tooth didn't dare to slack off, and while walking in with the stones, he generally hurried to report the detailed situation to the boss.
By the time they entered the original dwarven fortress, now the "Ironforge Fortress", the stone also knew the cause and effect of the whole thing.
At the earliest, two days ago, the "Death Creepers" patrolling the northern forest spotted other creatures, and when Hawkeye got the news, he sent his men to continue to keep an eye on them, and immediately rushed to the "Ironforge Fort", which was closer to him, to tell the tribal great shaman.
After hearing the goblin scout's description of these creatures, Old Rotten Fang immediately judged that it was a group of beastmen!
He had been following Gollum around on a campaign, and he had dealt with these hoof monsters a lot, so he knew how terrible they were, and it was at this time that the carrier pigeon led by the Prince of the Frontier arrived, and immediately wrote an urgent letter for help to "Orgrimmar".
At the same time, the "Ironforge Fort" also quickly entered a state of alert, the "Quarry" and "Timber Yard" all the fart boys withdrew to the cave, and the goblin cannon fodder and fart laborers mining in the underground mine also stopped working, took up weapons and miner hoes, and were ready to fight at all times.
The main force fighting alongside them is a hundred goblin spearmen and a hundred goblin archers stationed here, and of course, nearly two hundred Squigg jumpers are also hidden in the darkness and ready to attack, and if someone invades, they will deal the most deadly blow to the other side.
Fortunately, this has not happened for the time being, and Hawkeye continues to follow these beastmen far behind the "Death Creepers", and the latest news will be transmitted every day.
Hearing the old shaman's well-organized arrangement, Shi nodded, the old driver is the old driver, and he is not chaotic in the face of danger, even if he is here in person, it is nothing more than that.
No wonder I saw so many fart boys along the way, it turned out that they also withdrew in time, that's good, even if there is really a large-scale battle, we will retreat to the cave, the passage here is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and when the time comes, the big bear will come with a large army, and you can also attack on both sides, and the end of that group of beasts will come!
"By the way, after talking for a long time, how many beastmen are in that group, and what kind of animals are they, bad horned beasts? Centaurs? Or is there a more powerful Megahorn? ”
Stone doesn't know much about the Beastmen, but they also know their base units, and they come with their mouths open.
"What, chief, it's a centaur beast."
The old rotten tooth's expression was a little strange, and he whispered.
"Centaurs? Be careful with Hawkeye, these centaurs are also good at ambushes in the forest, and they also bring their own mounts...... How many are there? Hundred? It won't be more than two hundred, right? ”
"Uh...... According to the news from Hawkeye, there are about thirty ......"
When the stone heard it, the green tendons on his forehead jumped, and I strangled! Lao Tzu is so enthusiastic that there are only thirty centaurs for a long time?
