The soldiers who had fallen behind led by Delin were left behind by Dain for almost half a day's journey, and the communication between the two sides could only be relied on by the mages to pass messages back and forth with wind signals. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although communication cannot be real-time, generally speaking, a message can be delivered in a minute or two, which is not slow.

These soldiers were deliberately placed between the main force and Shizuipo, the main force walked in a large circle around Shizuipo, while Delin's team walked in a small circle, so that they could also take care of these mercenaries with poor individual ability and not be thrown too far.

But this is not the main purpose, in fact, arranging them between the main team and Shizuipo basically means that if there is a rout fleeing from the direction of Shizuipo coming in this direction, they will almost always be the first to meet.

For example, now, the officer under Ou Ze, who had been routed and fled from Shizuipo, discovered that there was still a human team here. He decisively began to ask which part they were, and also tried to ask to return to the battlefield together to continue the fight.

After receiving the news, Dane decisively asked Delin to deal with it, no matter what means he used, to delay as much time as possible, and in any case to prevent them from contacting his main force. Anyway, the officer with dozens of soldiers didn't want to break through the team led by Delin, and as long as he didn't meet in person, Dane could pretend not to know.

If he was really entangled and anxious, Delin could directly refuse. As for the consequences...... Dane can be pushed out completely when he turns around: it's a group of idle mercenaries who don't know the importance and don't know anything, and they don't know anything at all?!

This method is quite scoundrel, but who can take him at this time? No one can control him when the battle of Shizuipo is in full swing.

Anyway, for Dane, he can already be regarded as careless. With the main force of his subordinates, he ran west with one mind, and running back to Schindlaire was a great success. As for the things behind the ass, leave it to Delin to wipe it.

If it's an orc with a small share, then don't talk about it, let's fight it off first; If it's a small group of human troops, it's up to Delin to handle it. When he ran into the orc troops of the brigade, he just broke his tail to survive, and let those idle mercenaries be cannon fodder behind the palace, but Delin had to find a way to escape by himself. If you run into a large group of human troops, and you have to recruit them alive or dead...... Then that's the worst-case scenario.

Thankfully, this unfortunate situation did not occur for the next two days.

……

On the first day of February, the team led by Dane was completely out of the confines of Shizuipo, and the aftermath of the battle could no longer affect them. The information from the front also came in time, and as expected, the last resistance of the orcs ended in failure, and the army of Governor Ozer achieved absolute superiority in the first day of battle, and in the process of storming Shizuipo on the second day, the orc army was completely defeated.

The chief of the Broken Tooth Clan, one of the three major clans, was killed by the Governor of Ozer himself, and the chief of the Rib Clan also died in the chaos. Only the Black Rock Chieftain fled in a hurry with a part of the rout.

The orc legion has completely collapsed, and Governor Oze may also have some losses, but due to the lack of intelligence, it is difficult to make an accurate judgment. But it won't be too much to think about, because after the end of the Battle of Shizuipo, Ou Ze did not stop there, but continued to go east with the legion, preparing to further clear the rout of the orcs and kill and injure the living force of the orcs as much as possible. It is even possible that Ou Ze wants to storm the habitats of the three major clans and uproot these three orc tribes that have been entrenched in the westernmost part of the Eastern Wasteland for decades.

This must be good news for Dane. The further east Oze went, the more time he had to spend in the Eastern Wastelands, and the more time Dane had to implement his plan.

On the 3rd of February, Dane's team stepped into the Beast Blood Fortress defense.

According to Dane's idea, the ideal is to pass through the Beast Blood Fortress defense line unharmed without entering any castle. Although castles and castles are interlinked, if the orc army wants to go this way, it will inevitably suffer a series of blows in the process of crossing. But now Ou Ze's main forces are on the Eastern Wasteland, and a few days away, the total number of troops left behind on the defense line of the Beast Blood Fort is estimated to be not much, and I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve efficient joint defense.

What's more, Dane is leading a human army, and it stands to reason that if he doesn't threaten the castle, then no one will trouble him.

Ideally, he would be able to quickly leave the Beast Blood Castle and return to Hindlaire with his troops without alarming the defenders of any of the castles. Although, in this way, Ou Ze will get the news that he did not obey orders, but Dane has an excuse that he did not receive it, even if Ou Ze wants to trouble him, it will be a few months after the orc problem has been completely solved, and it is estimated that he has gained a firm foothold in the White Wolf Castle at that time.

In this way, any extraneous complications are undesirable to Dane. But he had to go into a castle at this point.

The reason is simple, after a few days of rapid marching, the supplies carried by his troops have finally reached a very dangerous level, and they must be refilled.

In the Beast Blood Castle defense line, in addition to the castle, there should still be some villages under the protection of the castle.

Of course, this is normal. Under the attack and siege of the Beast Blood Fort by the Orcs for several months, the population and supplies in the villages scattered on the defense line of the Beast Blood Fort are now only two places: either they have been moved into the castle protected by the city defenses, or they have been robbed and killed by the Orcs.

So, in the devastated land, Dane didn't want to find some supplies, even the grassroots didn't have to eat.

But it's not without good news. Two or three years ago, Chappell had led his troops, as the representative of the White Wolf Castle, to support the defense line of the Beast Blood Castle, fought for several months, and had some old acquaintances in several castles. As a result of his intervention, Dane was given enough baggage for his army for three to five days in two forts that lacked major generals.

After obtaining a small amount of supplies, but enough for his troops to leave the Beast Blood Fortress's defenses, he did not stay any longer, and immediately continued to advance westward.

Three days later, he had completely left the Beast Blood Castle defense circle. And at this moment, he is far from White Wolf Castle and Rotten Wolf Town, if he moves faster, he only has a little more than a week to go. (To be continued.) )
