Chapter 143: Walk with Me
The two masters of Morno and Barrocliffe blasted open the gate, and the four hundred heavily armed elites, dragons and White Wolf Fort infantry, as a bridgehead, quickly occupied the gate of the Dragon Hunting Clan's camp. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info The next 3,000 human warriors swarmed up, and the assault team led by Dane quickly tore through the enemy's line, crushing their army and completely disintegrating the orc force.
The whole battle was hearty, and although those dragon hunters had a strong sense of resistance, the gap in strength was indeed a bit too big. Moreover, they were completely unprepared for the extremely imposing tactical choice chosen by the Eastern Expeditionary Army that did not make any sense, and directly pressed a wave of troops on the whole front with abundant troops.
The most brutal killings took place after the complete collapse of the orc front. Defeat is a very terrible word, and in the process of defeat, the orcs who cannot form a formation into a fighting force are not much different from sheep under the butcher's knife of the soldier - at most sheep can resist. They were constantly torn apart, then surrounded, and then cleared.
When all the warriors with weapons were killed, all that remained were the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled. The Crusade Army, which did not intend to leave any prisoners behind, set off a massacre.
So, from the beginning of the battle to the time when the camp of the Dragon Hunting Clan was completely covered by a fire, only three or four hours had passed. In the middle of the battle, the orc warriors who were killed by the soldiers and dragons of the Crusade Army were actually not very many, and there were only more than 200 people who died. However, in the inventory after this battle, almost all of the dragon hunting clans, with a total population of more than 1,000, were slaughtered. Except for a few orcs who were routed in the battle and fled, who saved a single life, almost all of the others died.
After this battle, the dragon hunting clan in the orc tribe was removed.
After emptied the camp of all supplies and sent the entire camp into flames, the Crusade and the Dragons withdrew from the land destined to be burned to the ground.
After retreating to the barracks ten kilometers away, the soldiers moved out of the food and wine they had stolen from the dragon hunting clan's settlement, and began a carnival after victory.
In the barracks, bonfires were lit, and the soldiers were particularly excited after the victory. They laughed loudly around the campfire, and although the food and drink they had stolen from the orc tribe were not very human, they did not spoil the good spirits of the soldiers.
The officers in the upper echelons of the Crusade Army also had no intention of disturbing the interest of the soldiers, although the soldiers now have no military discipline, but people are not machines after all, and it is impossible to maintain a high pressure state all the time. Especially after a victory, these soldiers have the right to have a good time. In fact, the officers also enjoyed this rare opportunity to relax. In his big tent of the Chinese army, Morno personally set up a large table full of wine and food,
Morno, Dane, and a number of other important figures of the Crusade were all present. There was no music, but the joy was stronger than the medicine. Victory, for men, is undoubtedly the best stimulant.
After three rounds of drinking, Dane saw that these guys continued to drink and eat, and decided not to accompany them. However, when he saw that General Morno was in high spirits, and asked him for a drink three times and twice, he estimated that the Overseer would not let him leave the table easily.
However, in the blink of an eye, he saw that the woman Alexandrina stood up and asked Morno to take her leave. Women always had some privileges, and they were soon allowed by General Morno. Dane felt that this was an opportunity to get out of the table, so he followed suit and said that he wanted to leave.
Molno, of course, is not allowed. He took Dane's hand and said, "Eh, Brother Dane, it's just that the girl is leaving, what are you doing with it?" ”
Dane came up with an excuse, saying that there was something to deal with in his mercenary group.
"What's the matter? It doesn't matter tomorrow! Wait, I'll send someone to help! ”
Dane came up with another idea, saying that he had injuries on his body.
"Hurt? Why didn't I see it? ”
Now, there really isn't much he can do, and these words are excuses left and right.
Seeing that he couldn't leave the wine table, but at a critical moment, Alexandrina spoke: "General Morno, I have something to say to Dane in private. ”
Morno raised an eyebrow, looked at the masked woman, and then at Dane, as if he understood something, and his attitude changed suddenly.
He winked ambiguously at Dane and said, "Oh oh, okay, then you guys go talk, don't worry about us, let's just drink here." ”
With that, he waved his hand and motioned for Dane and Delina to hurry away. A few guys who didn't know what was going on, seeing that Dane looked like he was leaving, planned to come up and continue to persuade him to drink, but they all stopped General Morno.
Clearly, the Shogun had misunderstood something—perhaps that was what Delina was aiming for.
But what else can Dane say? Anyway, I have a chance to get out, and it's a matter of getting away quickly. As for misunderstandings or not, I'll talk about them later.
Following Alessandrina, the two walked out of Morno's tent one after the other.
Walking out of the tent, the night breeze blew, and the strong smell of wine suddenly dissipated a lot. Listening to the noise coming from the soldiers around the campfire not far away, Dane turned his head and said to the masked woman, "Hmm...... Thank you for clearing the siege. ”
Delina said, "How do you want to thank you?" ”
"Uh......" Dane choked on for a moment, "what do you say?" ”
"Come with me for a walk around the neighborhood."
Dane didn't want to, but the masked woman's familiar eyes, which were bluer than gemstones, made him change his mind.
"Okay."
Following the woman, the two walked out of the camp.
A little farther away, the noise was gradually overshadowed by the night wind. The atmosphere between the two has been very silent, and in Dane's heart, there has always been an awkward mood that is inexplicably spreading, making him a little annoyed.
"Thank you."
Suddenly, the woman who was walking in front spoke.
"Thanks for what?"
"Thank you for that incident two years ago, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have survived, my father's hard work to establish it, the Pure Sword Mercenary Group may no longer exist."
"Hi...... Don't talk about that matter. ”
"In your heart...... Is it that not heavy? ”
"Uh......"
