Chapter 203: Assassination

In the early morning of January 28, Dane, who had rested all night, continued to walk south with his own legion, the pure sword mercenary group, and the white wolf army with Chapur. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When I rested last night, the scouts who went out did not find any signs of a large group of orcs approaching in the surrounding area, and even if it was a small group of orcs, there were very few of them, looking at this situation, it seemed that the orcs did not intend to continue to pursue them, and they should be safe.

But to be on the safe side, Dane decided to stay away from the orc army.

At noon, Dane received the exact news - from a strange falcon knight sent from the legion of the governor of Ozer:

“…… Governor Ozer was very pleased with your actions the night before, you had successfully achieved your goal of holding the orc army in place, and now, a total of 12,000 orc troops had gathered at Shizuipo and were ready to continue the resistance; At the same time, our army of 22,000 people is already less than five kilometers away from Shizuipo, and those filthy orcs are already doomed to have no way to escape! ”

"We are expected to launch a full-scale attack on the orcs at Shizuipo tomorrow morning, Governor Ozer ordered your troops to immediately stop the process of going south, prepare to return to participate in the battle, and launch an attack on the orc army from the rear at the right time, this is a letter of order written by Governor Ozawa himself."

"Okay, we got it." Dane stretched out his hand, ready to take the letter of command, but the falcon knight withdrew his hand and did not hand it over.

He asked, "What about General Morno?" The letter could only be given to General Morno himself. ”

Dane's eyes burst out, and he first thought of a question: Ozer still doesn't know that Morno is dead?

That's pretty much the only answer. It's hard to imagine why this happened, although most of the White Wolf soldiers were saved by Dane, there must have been a soldier who was separated from the main army who also survived, they were the perfect people to pass on the news of Morno's death, and at the same time, the orcs hung up Morno's corpse directly.

Taken together, it stands to reason that as long as Ozer sent people to reconnoiter the battlefield, he should be able to get the news of Morno's death.

But no.

There were so few reasons for that, and Dane guessed one: it couldn't be that Reddis guy actually snatched Morno's body, right?

Unclear about the actual situation, Dane could only tell the truth: "General Morno...... Died on the battlefield. ”

"What?!" The falcon knight looked shocked.

After Dane had recounted the situation, and after emphasizing that he was now the current supreme leader of the army, the falcon knight reluctantly agreed to hand over the letter of order to Dane, and at the same time, he said, "I will go back immediately and bring this information to Governor Ozer." However, although General Morno is gone, Commander Dane, you will also lead the troops to attack with the army tomorrow, understand? ”

"I know what to do." Dane nodded.

"That's good." The falcon knight nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Are there any supplies?" My mount needs some food, and I've got to eat something, I'm starving. ”

"Yes, yes, I'll order the soldiers to prepare them for you right away."

The Falcon Knight was even more satisfied with Dane's attitude.

……

After sending this guy away, Delin next to him asked, "Boss, do we really want to go back and fight again?" ”

Dane sneered, and tore the letter of Governor Ozer in his hand to shreds: "Go back and fight again?" Are you stupid or am I stupid? ”

Casually dusting the fragments of the command letter with the power of the spell, Dane brought Pehin over.

"See that falcon knight? Keep an eye on it, he'll shoot him down at me from the time our army leaves, and remember to dispose of the corpse so that no one can see that he was killed by an arrow. ”

"Yes." Ordered by Dane, Pehince turned and left.

The reason why he was so polite to that falcon knight, and even took the order and told the truth, was because Dane had no intention of letting him go back alive at all.

He would never go back to participate in the war, and he had a private agreement with Ou Ze that Morno was not him, and he couldn't do it at all.

It's not a good thing to offend Ozer, and Dane has his own trade-offs in his heart. In the battle of Shizuipo, Ou Ze will win, but it will take a lot of time to pursue the remnants of the orcs and then enter the Eastern Wasteland to completely wipe out the three major clans. According to Dane's estimate, Ozer didn't want to spare his hands for anything else for a month or two.

And these times are Dane's chances.

Rotten Wolf Town and Shawan Harbor are definitely two pieces of fat, and no one dared to bite Moorno when he was still alive. But he died, let alone Ma Long, even Ou Ze couldn't let it go.

He was somewhat sure of Marlon's troubles, it was a straw bag overseer. But if Ozer also starts, it will be difficult to grab it.

Therefore, the time that Oze couldn't spare in the past two months was Dane's opportunity.

In this way, it is impossible for him to participate in this war, and once he fights Ou Ze, he will never let him leave easily, and he will not want to get out in a month or two. He had to race against time to return to the southeast of Sindlaire, and before everyone had time to react, he would get hold of White Wolf Fort and Rotten Wolf Town, and as for Shawan Harbor, he could slowly plot in the future.

But directly violating Ou Ze's order, that is a similar move. Dane only wants to create the established fact of the occupation of the White Wolf Castle, and it is okay to offend Ozer, but it must not be offended to the point of turning his face.

Fortunately, the order to participate in the battle was not given by Ou Ze in person, but just a sword falcon knight who sent a message.

In this way, things will be easy to do, kill this messenger guy, and say that he didn't receive the order, who can do anything? There are so many two-legged wyverns in the sky, and the orcs also have archers, who knows how this guy died on the way to the herald? As for the fact that so many people saw the Falcon Knight come to Dane's side, so what? Couldn't this be an air cavalry that had been scattered and had come to resupply temporarily? Anyway, the only people who heard the conversation between Dane and the Falcon Knight were a few people who were absolutely loyal.

Of course, there are many mistakes and omissions in such excuses, and it is not easy to hide from discerning people. But Dane's purpose is not to hide from others, he doesn't intend to hide from anyone, he just needs an excuse that looks like it. If his plan doesn't succeed, then no matter how blameless he does, it's useless, and in the end he can become a small leader under Ozer, so he might as well go home and become an island lord; If his plan succeeded, he believed that for the sake of the big picture, no matter how bad his excuses were, Ou Ze would not be able to bother with him so much.
