Volume 2: The Shadow of the Wailing Cave (Remastered) Chapter 36: Attack in the Night (2)
The barren climate means that this dry plain does not experience cloudy days a few times a year, and although there are occasional cold fronts from the Tatila Sea that bring heavy and brief rainfall, the clouds always drift inland under the sea breeze. Therefore, stargazing in the barren land is a great tourist attraction for some couples in love!
But this also caused a lot of trouble to Yu Bin, without the cover of clouds, it meant that it was difficult to sneak attack those centaurs under the cover of darkness, so Yu Bin specially raised this question to Sesk.
"Hahaha, my friend, don't worry!" Sesk tore at the barbecue and patted Yu Bin's shoulder with his greasy palm, "The shamans will solve this problem, the protection of our ancestors has never let us down!" ”
When the well-fed orc shaman used the totem to evoke the wind spirit, bringing sand and dust, Yu Bin had to admit that he underestimated the shaman profession, these seemingly irregular spellcasters were not much worse than well-dressed mages, and they could do the same thing, or even better, what magic could do.
Through totems, shamans can communicate with the elemental spirits of heaven and earth and then ask them for help, which is easier, less expensive, and more effective than using magic to force the elemental forces around them to produce specific magical effects.
But being able to communicate with elemental spirits requires a great talent, which is why many of the orcs have thrown themselves into the arms of the Shadows and become warlocks since they arrived in the world of Entagre. Compared to the scarce shamans, the warlock that can be mass-produced is obviously better able to meet the needs of the orcs for spell-casting professions.
With the help of wind and dust, the orcs of the Fireblade Clan followed the direction of the wind into the backwater oasis, leaving in the makeshift camp with less than two hundred seriously wounded soldiers, who had survived the Battle of the Flame Rift, and were unable to participate in the battle despite being treated at Orgrimmar and out of danger.
Yu Bin didn't go with Sesk, the Fireblade Overseer's target was the Khan of the Margram Clan, Yu Bin was reluctant to participate in a battle of this level, and the aftermath alone was enough to bring him back to the graveyard to be resurrected. So he stayed on the outskirts of the Backwater Oasis with two carts of liquor and barbecue, waiting for the orc warriors who wanted to trade it for a supper to bring him enough heads.
"Canos, can you get face! What about the glory of the orcs? What about the honor of the Warsong Clan? "Watching Canos pull out a large piece of barbecue meat from the cart behind him, smash open a barrel of spirits, and just eat and drink, Yu Bin cursed this guy to death by barbecue with a black line." Don't you have to help Sesk? ”
"No, that guy hates it when people meddle in his own battles! Even if something happens, the Sword Saint of the Fire Blade Clan can handle it, and that is the son of their patriarch! ”
Canos was invited by Yu Bin to participate in this operation together, on the one hand, Yu Bin wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to the relationship between the two sides, he still did not give up inviting Canos to go to Naxxramas, on the other hand, Yu Bin was also thinking about his own life, don't forget, those undead who were severely pit by Yu Bin are likely to be hiding in a corner of the barren place, planning what kind of conspiracy. Also as an undead, Yu Bin knew how terrible the patience and persistence of these immortals were.
In return, Yu Bin promised to provide Canos with an extra batch of ore, as well as a whole cart of spirits and barbecue, but before they could reach the backwater oasis, that cart of food was wiped out by the two foodies, Canos and Sesk, and now it has even developed to grab food directly from Yu Bin!
"I know Sesk has heroic-level strength, but are those Fireblade Blade Blades also heroic? Could it be that the Fireblade Clan is so powerful that it can squander its hero-level combat power at will? Yu Bin said half-inquiringly, half-excitedly, this was a good opportunity for him to learn more about the orc race.
Canos didn't hide anything in this regard, and after the explanation of the heroic orc blacksmith, Yu Bin knew that he had made an empirical mistake.
The so-called Juggernaut of the Orcs is not a profession, but a specific designation. Unlike the so-called Juggernauts of humans and elves, the Juggernauts of the Orcs refer to those powerful warriors who have been through a lot of battles, can use a variety of weapons like their fingers, and have a unique fighting style, and these orc warriors have learned and integrated special combat techniques in countless battles.
They are able to wield their swords skillfully, summoning the power of the wind in battle to make themselves temporarily invisible, joining or leaving the battle anytime and anywhere. They can also rely on special body movements and steps to form afterimages in battle, and even conjure up clones that can confuse their enemies with fake realism. They are well-versed in the weaknesses and flaws of various enemies, and can always hit the vital points with ease. And the most terrifying thing about these sword masters is their superb fighting skills, some have described these powerful warriors as a storm of blades on the battlefield.
The strength of the orc sword master may not be at the hero level, but at least it has transcended the scope of the seventh order and touched that threshold.
"The title of Sword Master is a supreme honor for any orc, but few orcs can temper their skills to a sufficient height, the reason why the Fire Blade Clan can maintain its current scale is that in addition to the fact that they have a part of the shaman's inheritance, the knowledge and skills about the Sword Master left by their ancestors are also an important reason, perhaps only the War Song Clan can still compete with them in this regard." Karnos said with a little loneliness, "But those clans who have abandoned their honor and are willing to be demonic lackeys have relied on despicable fellows like warlocks to take away the benefits that rightfully belong to us!" ”
"In other words, this time the Fireblade Clan sent troops to support the Great Chief of Thrall in attacking the Flame Rift, also to show off their muscles to those big clans of Orgrimmar?" Thinking that even these simple-minded orcs had so many twists and turns, Yu Bin was really a head and two big, "I said no wonder Sesk has no doubt about the information I provide, he was ready to do something to the centaurs!" ”
Canos chuckled: "Even without the information you provide, Sesk is ready to find the Kyrgyz centaur tribe Liwei!" ”
"There's also the support of Grand Chief Sal behind this, right? Relying on the military exploits made in the Flame Rift, those big clans have to admit the qualifications of the Fireblade Clan to enter the barren land, if they are willing to take out a part of the land, it is best, if they are unwilling, then let the Fireblade Clan find a centaur to open the knife, and use force to make those big clans feel the determination of the Fireblade Clan to move to the barren land, and after the Great Chief Thrall has completely eliminated the influence of the Black Hand Clan in Orgrimmar, there are naturally other ways to find a land for the Fireblade Clan to survive! Yu Bin was a little discouraged, he was still complacent about his eloquence before, but he didn't expect that people would have this plan for a long time.
"Don't worry, little one! Although the Fireblade Clan and the Great Chief have long had plans in this regard, the information you provide is still very important, and the Fireblade Clan has a great chance of directly obtaining an oasis as a settlement through this operation, which is much more advantageous than the original plan of the Great Chief! ”
"Well, I'm just a businessman anyway, as long as I can make money, I can do anything!" Yu Bin also broke the jar and fell, anyway, these orcs would never take him as an insignificant little undead, and now in this situation, at least some of them will make money!
Although the news revealed by Canos made Yu Bin a little depressed, this mood was quickly dispelled by the orcs who came back for supper, and the centaurs who were cut to death were thrown aside like pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered under the rude treatment of these orcs, and after Yu Bin's mending knife, these orcs could get a piece of roast meat about the size of their arm and a large glass of spirits.
Thank you, Great Orc Chief! These red-skinned beasts only care about food and drink, and they don't care whether they bring back a second-order centaur scout or a fifth-order centaur warrior, Yu Bin even slaughtered two centaur priests with his own hands, God is pitiful, this is a sixth-order monster, an experience worth more than ten centaur scouts! And Yu Bin only needs to pay a small barbecue and a glass of spirits, which is worth a few dollars!
On one side were the orcs who were eating and drinking, and on the other side was Yu Bin, who was mending the knife to make up for the cramps in his hand, and both sides were very satisfied this night. The orcs thought that this undead man was stupid and had a lot of money, and he was willing to exchange good barbecue and liquor for the head of a centaur, and those four-legged guys might even be able to be used as coolies, and there was no value at all when they died, and even the jackals were not willing to eat the meat of centaurs, because of the acid! And Yu Bin felt that these orcs were simply too cute, and the whole two carts of food made Yu Bin make up more than 740 knives in one go, and the level was raised from level 84 to level 88, and the cost was only more than 600 gold coins.
"Damn, these centaurs are as timid as rabbits!" Sesk returned to the camp in the early hours of the morning, he didn't find the centaur khan, and he wanted to have a hearty battle, but the result was that the Fireblade Overseer had to take out his anger on the centaur shamans who guarded the centaur tribe's core area.
Poor Jayne Khan, perhaps he should be glad that he died on the battlefield against the undead, instead of watching his clan go to ruin on this bloody night.
After a night of slaughter, only a few hundred of the battered Margram tribe escaped the backwater oasis, and the centaurs couldn't even organize a decent counterattack against the seven thousand or so Fireblade Clan soldiers.
"As you provide, these centaurs were hit hard not long ago!" Sesk was sulking, and it was one of the several orc shamans who was in charge of discussing the next move with Yu Bin, the dog-headed military advisor, "They can't even draw enough sentinels, and the Sword Master of the Fireblade Clan only killed less than twenty centaurs and let our warriors rush into those guys' settlements without hindrance!" What followed was just a massacre. ”
"You should rejoice, noble shaman, this means that the warriors of the Fireblade Clan do not need to give too many lives to reap the victory, making this oasis the foundation of the clan's thriving."
"You're right, undead, you've proven your kindness to the Fireblade Clan, and the clan won't forget your efforts. We have already informed the patriarch of what happened here last night, and the clan is gathering the scattered clansmen and will soon set off. ”
Yu Bin knew what this shaman meant by this: "I understand. I will raise a batch of daily necessities as soon as possible to meet your needs. Of course, I don't think Grand Chief Sal will sit idly by while the Fireblade Clan eats and drinks. ”
The implication is that I can provide some of the supplies, but the bulk of it will have to be paid by Orgrimmar. Because this first batch of materials is destined to be provided to the Fire Blade Clan on credit, the migration of the clan is not a trip, which means that the Fire Blade Clan has to give up the original settlement places and all kinds of property that cannot be taken away, even if these things that are destined to be discarded can be sold to others, Yu Bin does not think that anyone will spend a lot of money to buy this kind of clearance goods, so the Fire Blade Clan is destined to lose a lot of money.
Most of the funds obtained from the sale of assets were used to buy supplies to meet the needs of the Fireblade Clan's people on the migration route, and they also had to leave a sum of money for the construction of future settlements, so the Fireblade Clan was destined to rely on Orgrimmar's relief in the short term, which is one of the reasons why Thrall agreed to let them move to the Barren Lands, through which the Great Chief was able to better control the entire Fireblade Clan in his own hands.
"Thank you, friend!" Yu Bin's statement made the shaman of the Fire Blade Clan smile, "What do you think you should do next?" ”
"This is something that only the Sesk Overseers are qualified to decide, and I dare not go beyond it!" Yu Bin felt that his reputation in the Fire Blade Clan should at least be respectful, but he still tried to avoid arousing the other party's disgust.
"Of course, it will ultimately have to be decided by the Sesk Overseers, but I'd like to hear your advice, friend!"
"Okay. A backwater oasis alone is not enough to meet the survival needs of the entire Fireblade Clan, of course, you can also place some of your clansmen in Orgrimmar, I believe that the Great Chief of Thrall will not mind accepting some warriors of the Fireblade Clan into Orgrimmar's garrison, but overcrowding on this oasis is not a happy thing anyway. Yu Bin agitated his three-inch tongue, "The demise of the Margram clan means that the centaurs in the barren land can no longer be a powerful enough force, and those who escape are likely to leak the information of the Fireblade clan to the Kyrgyz clan or other orc clans, so I think we must attack the Sweetwater Oasis as quickly as possible, and it is best to occupy this oasis before those big clans react, creating a fait accompli!" ”
