On 15 January, the plan for the division of troops had already begun for three days. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Dane didn't care about others, he himself felt like a fish in water. In the course of three days, his rangers played a great role, finding out four or five orc herdsmen's strongholds in a row. The scale of these orc strongholds is very small, ranging from a few dozen people to a hundred.

When he encountered such an orc stronghold, he was not polite at all, and ate it all into his stomach. As for the other big ones, they have not yet been met in the range of action of the troops he leads, and even if they do, he will not be able to eat.

These small herdsmen's settlements can actually bring him very little in terms of war points when they are cleared. But what is more satisfying is that since the troops he has drawn out to participate in the battle are all under his own forces, and there is no longer such a thing as an Allied army, the war points obtained from fighting the enemy will not be discounted because of this.

In this way, even if the number of War Points is small without discounts, it can add up quite satisfactorily.

It was only three days of clean-up operations, and he was already close to the 500 war points required to reach the second floor, but now there was only a gap of 60 or 70 points.

This gap, even if it is such a small-scale battle, is only one or two.

He can't wait to see the new lineup of system modules in the Heart of the Empire, and he can't wait to climb to the second floor of the Imperial Tower to see if there is a different style. Dane, who was a little impatient, gave a clear order to Pehins, asking her ranger troops to step up their exploration of the surrounding situation and quickly find a few more orc strongholds. He had even contacted Sir Marlin's squadron of falcons, asking the air knights to help him find his target.

However, then, his luck was a little bad.

Perhaps it was because his team had been so crazy in the past three days that he had been cleaning up orc strongholds. It may also be due to the fact that the impact of the Crusade Army's actions has expanded to a certain extent, and the results transmitted by various reconnaissance are not very optimistic.

Although there is no large orc force eyeing them for the time being, it is difficult to find orc settlements in the periphery of the range of action. Some of the surrounding orc gathering points have either been patronized by him or other troops of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, or those orcs may have received the news in advance, and have already moved away and fled and don't know where to hide.

This made Dane feel a little depressed.

Just as he was thinking about whether to run a little farther and expand the scope of some cleaning, there was a cry of eagles in the sky. Looking up, I saw two falcon knights flying from afar.

Dane raised his hand and ordered the troops on the march to temporarily cease their operations. He wanted to hear if the birds in the sky would bring him any valuable information.

A moment later, the falcon descended from the sky. A few mercenaries who had already prepared hurriedly carried several large leather buckets full of raw meat to the mouths of these falcons. The raw meat in these buckets came from the corpses of slain orcs.

Dane wasn't perverted enough to let his soldiers eat the flesh of the humanoid race, at least, although they were under a lot of logistical pressure right now, but not enough to eat human flesh raw. But if he prepared some chopped orc corpses for these carnivorous birds, he still didn't have any psychological pressure.

The two falcons honestly and unceremoniously used their long eagle beaks to pick up a few pieces of flesh and swallow them, looking very hungry and thirsty.

Two knights in light armor jumped down from the back of the big bird, walked quickly to Dane's side, didn't say much greetings, and directly explained their intentions: "Captain Dane, the two of us found an orc transport team during the previous patrol!" ”、

"Convoys?" Dane's expression became a little confused, and then gradually showed excitement: "Is it really a convoy?" You read that right? ”

The two of them glanced at each other and said, "It should be right." There were more than two hundred of them, and more than a hundred of them were not seen with weapons, and they should have been orc laborers. Carrying a lot of baggage with carts and barren pack lizards. We don't know what the baggage is because we can't get close, but it looks like there's a lot of it. In addition, in addition to more than a hundred laborers and a dozen or so barren pack lizards, there are about a hundred heavily armed orc warriors, who seem to play the role of guards. ”

Dane clapped his hands and said, "That's right, this looks like the orc convoy!" We caught the big fish this time! ”

The expression on his face was a little excited beyond words. He continued: "Two, the information you bring is valuable, but now is not the time to rest. I hope that you will now hurry up and keep an eye on that convoy, and come back at any time to deliver me detailed information. I'll send out my rangers to keep an eye on those guys, so be sure don't let them run! ”

"Okay, Captain Dane, please rest assured, you will live up to your mission!"

"Without further ado, once your mounts have been replenished with food and water, let's set off quickly."

"Yes, we'll go right away."

Later, after seeing off the two falcon knights, Dane immediately called Delin, Maca, and Pehins: "Hurry up and get the troops ready and set off due south!" We caught a big fish and had a delicious meal! ”

"Good!"

……

The convoy that will appear here, Dane guesses, must be carrying supplies to the orc coalition forces below the Beast Blood Castle.

He didn't have any basis for making such a guess, but at this point in time, such a large amount of transportation, and a whole team of 100 guards, if it was anything else, he wouldn't believe it.

Regardless of whether it is a convoy of orc armies or not, there is no harm in intercepting it! After this battle is over, not to mention the soldiers brought from Komyrya under his command, they don't have to worry about not being in a hurry for a long time, even for the entire Eastern Expeditionary Army, it is a great addition.

Of course, these upcoming supplies, Dane will inevitably replenish his team more, and I believe that others can't say anything.

What's more, judging from the estimated number of enemies and the fact that there are no reinforcements this time, he will almost certainly be able to meet the requirement of 500 war points for climbing to the second floor of the Imperial Tower!
