Chapter 42: Return
After tidying up the battlefield a little, Sharif took all the sentinels and crossbowmen and chased after the dire wolf. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
According to the scouts' returns, not all gnolls entered the battlefield, and a considerable part of the old and weak waited in the rear. It wasn't until the sight of the collapsed warriors that the entire camp went into chaos, and then the pursuing dire wolves arrived.
Now, Sharif is pessimistic that unless it is a large number of captives, his adults will probably die of a stroke in a rage!
However, when he arrived at the gnoll camp, he found that there were only a few gnolls alive in the entire gnoll camp! The dire wolves, who were already stimulated by the bloody breath and were about to lose their minds, washed the entire camp in blood!
Except for the escaped gnolls, almost the entire camp was killed by the wolf's kiss, including more than twenty human slaves who tried to escape in chaos!
With one foot on a section of intestines, the grass covered with blood was slimy and slippery, and even a guard like Sharif covered his face with a headache in the face of this bloody camp.
In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the dire wolves as much as possible, the breeders usually only feed them half-full before the start of the war. Any well-fed beast will become non-aggressive, so on the battlefield, these beasts are under the command of a dog trainer and are able to attack violently for "food".
However, these hungry beasts were easily stimulated by the smell of blood, especially since Sharif had to send these creatures in advance in order to expel the enemy rangers, which increased their consumption, and in the ensuing battle, most of the dire wolves did not get enough food, so they pursued at the urging of the dog trainers.
The hungry dire wolves have been given the order to attack after encountering the gnoll tribe, where will they show mercy? After slaying the first enemies to resist, these hungry beasts finally lost their minds in their bloodthirsty desire and began to attack everything else that walked.
At this time, even the dog trainer stayed away from here with some scouts, and it was not until most of the dire wolves had finished eating and become docile that they dared to return to the camp and start gathering their troops!
"Whew-" A dire wolf dragged out of a tent, a gnoll cub whose neck had been bitten off. After seeing Sharif, he let out a menacing roar, picked up the corpse and turned around and ran out of the sight of the crowd.
"Alas!" Sharif sighed and said helplessly: "In the future, when facing human enemies, I will never use them!" ”
Shaking off the intestines stuck to his boots, Sharif had no desire to go further into the camp, and instructed the magistrate, who was already pale with fright: "Go to the captain of the Dire Wolf Tame, ask him about the casualties of the Dire Wolves, and count the surviving captives, and then return to the City of Angels!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
After hearing Sharif's words, the political officer, who was only a civilian and had not participated in any battles, trembled twice, but he still agreed to come down.
-------------------------
Back in the City of Angels, they were greeted by all the people who had already learned of the victory.
Walking on the wide roads of the City of Angels, compared to the sentry guards who are silent and march quietly. The reservists were much happier! With their heads held high, they drove away the gnolls while showing their prowess to the maidens in the crowd.
In times of war, there is nothing more than a warrior to catch the eye of the opposite sex.
In particular, the reservists escorting the huge monsters attracted the attention of the vast majority of the people, and they laughed rudely, and in order to show their strength, some soldiers took their spears and whipped the monsters.
The disgruntled roars of the monsters frightened the soldiers, revealing a hint of fear. But then the panic turned to anger, and he used harder whips to cover up his gaffe. It wasn't until their commander gave them a scabbard that they were able to restrain the angry teenagers.
"Your Excellency!"
Xiao Yi personally came to the outside of the castle to greet the sergeants who had returned triumphantly, and after Sharif saw Xiao Yi standing in front of everyone, he stepped forward with guilt on his face and said:
"I'm sorry, my lord! Because of my poor command, the sentinels suffered huge losses. ”
Xiao Yi looked at the ogre who was escorted by the soldiers in surprise, but said: "There will inevitably be casualties in the war, my chief guard, you should be happy, it was you who brought us an exciting victory!" ”
At the same time, he stepped out of the way, revealing the Dia who was holding Kari, and said narrowly, "Of course, you should be glad that there is a charming lady who is worried about your safety. ”
Surprised to look at the beautiful woman with a shy face like a girl, Sharif couldn't understand why she was standing behind her own adults.
Although Sharif did not let the guard's guard let Diya go, the guard saw this woman with a child, and was actually treated so gently by the always serious captain! So he didn't stop Diya from entering the castle again, but he still reported to Xiao Yi.
After learning that his head guard was actually in a spring mood, Xiao Yi did not hesitate to give Diya a job as a maid, and allowed Little Kari to become Alice's little Lori's entourage, although it was better to call her a playmate.
Patting the surprised and embarrassed Sharif, Xiao Yi pointed to the three ogres and said, "Keeping them in the prison of the castle, I need to interrogate them, this is not good news, as far as I know, they seem to be followers of the orcs." ”
Xiao Yi really didn't bother to complain about the mixed creatures of Azeroth and their origins, but he knew very well about ogres, and their hometown seemed to be Draenor's Blade Mountain.
So apart from the orcs, Xiao Yi really couldn't think of anyone who could let these powerful but reckless creatures mix with the gnolls!
Perhaps in the game, there are many ogres who are used as mounts by goblins because of their hard IQ, or stupidly become other people's slaves. But the original ogres that Xiao Yi encountered in the game were a group of powerful and brave existences!
The IQ is not superb, but at least it can reach above the horizontal line! This can be seen in the mission to help the frostwolf tribe resist the enslavement of the Ogre Empire.
This Nima has established an empire, and the suppressed orcs are retreating in the Frost and Fire Ridge, how can it be that a group of idiots with only muscles and no brains can do it?
Although he didn't understand why the ogre was enslaved by the orcs later, Xiao Yi was very sure that if the ogre appeared, then the orcs would not be far away!
Don't look at the fact that he can defeat the gnolls with a small number of troops now, but when he encounters the regular troops of the orcs, this is not enough for people to stuff their teeth! You must know that at the beginning, the battle loss ratio between orcs and humans was 1 to 5!
