Chapter 223: Mix, respective roles, please
According to the distance on the map, the Feneri Valley, where Olympus is currently located, is about 150 kilometers away from Krupp in a straight line. Of course, given the actual geography, the winding roads, and the avoidance of densely populated market towns, Moriarty and the others would have to travel at least two hundred kilometers to reach their target. And they must not be discovered during this period, otherwise what awaits Olympus will be closed and annihilated.
Fortunately, most of the goblin's eyes are now focused on the direction of Kentucky Bay. So taking advantage of this "dark light" opportunity, Olympus can be said to be galloping towards the south at full speed.
I don't know if it was the luck of Moriarty and the others, or the goblins who couldn't help but relax after taking out the three sailing ships, except for a few airships that appeared in the airspace near Olympus in the first two or three hours, there was no reconnaissance threat from the air in the rest of the time. Even in the afternoon, when a sudden burst of snow swept across the sky, the possibility of the goblin airship re-launching in a short period of time was more directly approaching zero.
"Moty, do you want to take a break? We've been on the road for more than eight hours now. Even if the Balalaika brothers could still support themselves, the sled dogs were exhausted. As the deputy squadron leader, White kept an eye on the team.
Before dusk, the blizzard, which had been raging for several hours, finally calmed down. At this time, Olympus had already crossed a distance of about one hundred and fifty kilometers in one go. Follow the instructions on the map and turn around an ice field in front of you to reach Krupp.
"Okay, let's all rest in place for half an hour. Give each sled dog half a lƬ potion and half an energy potion. And feed jerky. Others, drink a little red water to ward off the cold. Moriarty recognized White's building and ordered.
When the sled dogs that had been running wild all day could finally stop and rest, some of the dogs that were really exhausted even fell directly on the snow, gulping white air and never getting up again. And being fed alchemy potions in such a state, although it can quickly restore the almost exhausted body and energy, it will inevitably have the hidden danger of over-squeezing potential, and I am afraid that the physique will also be permanently damaged in the future.
But in the current situation. Such a move can only be said to be inevitable.
And compared to the sled dog's strength is not strong. The three-headed Naga looked like they were only struggling slightly. Here I have to admire the strong fighting nature of the Naga tribe, and the body is really amazingly good. And after each of them drank a body elixir and an energy potion, the Balalaika brothers regained their full state of dragon spirit and tiger fierceness, laughing and falling into a mess with Guderian.
"Hah! That's amazing! "Bruno is trying Little Red Water for the first time. I was choked until my mouth and nose were red and I coughed repeatedly.
"One bite is enough. Too much is uncomfortable. Moriarty chuckled. Hand the jug with the water bottle to the elf.
"Thank you." Bruno hurriedly poured water and rushed down the sour and spicy meaning in his throat: "This soup is really good, just one bite." The body warmed up. ā
"Hehe, an earthman, but very capable of managing things."
Moriarty smiled again. Speaking of which, he had learned this little red water from Wu Chang Bangda earlier, and before this expedition, he had specially asked Haiyuna to boil a few water bladders and bring them with him, anyway, in the winter of Bracada, he was not afraid that the soup would spoil.
"Your Excellency, where do we go next?" Wiping his mouth again, the elf asked in a low voice, "At the speed of the team, we will reach Krupp in the first half of the night." However, this target is no better than the airship workshops that have been attacked before, and Krupp is one of the largest and most important workshop towns and airship manufacturing bases of the goblins. As far as I know, Khumbu has a heavy garrison in Krupp all year round. ā
"You're right, and so is my intelligence." Moriarty nodded in acknowledgement.
"So..."
"Find a way, blend in."
"Mix?"
Hearing this word, the three-flower elf couldn't help but twitch the corner of her eye. How could a military powerhouse like Krupp be mixed in casually? There is no pass, no official password, no strict body search, you try it inside, and it is strange if you don't kill it on the spot.
"Yes, blend in." Moriarty nodded solemnly: "But not all, but some." ā
"Part of it?"
"Yes. Staff officer, you explain the plan of action to Captain Bruno. Lord Henry and Gregory listened too. ā
"Yes, Your Excellency."
The old werewolf immediately stepped forward and briefly explained to the three "newcomers" of Olympus the content of the two sets of plans of "first south and then north".
"When they reach Krupp, the Olympus commandos will be divided into two parts. One of them, led by Lord Moriarty, including Lord White, the Balalaika brothers, and the Gunfire Squad, will enter Krupp; The other was commanded by me and remained on standby on the periphery. Speaking of this, Clausewitz paused, looked at the goblin mage, and said, "However, now that the goblin volunteers have joined, I have selected a group of goblins to join His Excellency Moriarty's team. ā
"This build yƬ is very good. In addition, Grigory will follow me in his actions. Moriarty nodded at the old werewolf and added.
"Why are you involved with me again...", and Uncle Beard glanced at Moriarty melancholy, with a helpless expression.
"So, how did His Excellency Moriarty get into Krupp?" At this point, the elf asked again.
"At that time, we will disguise ourselves as captives of the three Naga brothers and escort them into Krupp." Moriarty smiled slightly: "And now, it is more secure to arrange some goblin volunteers to pretend to be Yugoslav Union soldiers." ā
"I see." Hearing such an explanation, Bruno was immediately stunned.
I have to say that Clausewitz's "sneaking plan" is really quite risky. In the process of deceiving Krupp, if there is any omission, Moriarty and the others, who pretend to be captives, will be directly surrounded and attacked by the goblins, and there is no possibility of escaping again.
"Hehe, this time it depends on the acting skills of our three brothers."
Unlike the surprise of Bruno and Goblin Mage and others, the Naga brothers, who are the three leading actors, are proud and excited. Also, since the beginning of the Pearl and setting foot on the southern coast, the Nagas have always been working as rickshaw drivers. Even when facing the high-ranking mage Robert in Cloudtown, it was Moriarty himself and the fierce red crystal gargoyles who sang the main characters. And now, it is finally the turn of the Naga brothers to make their debut, how can the three brothers who have been bored for a long time not be excited?
"Hey, you three be careful, don't mess up! Otherwise, hum, you will be followed back to the north, and continue to stay in the ravine in the south as a bandit! Guderian couldn't see that the Nagas were proud, and immediately suppressed them.
"Don't worry, rest assured, I'll play well, haha." The three brothers, who were in high love, didn't care about the dwarf's cynicism, and directly smiled at it, but Guderian didn't know how to say anything when he wanted to scold a few words.
"Your Excellency, I would also like to enter Krupp with you." At this time, Henry, who had always been accustomed to low-key silence, suddenly spoke.
"Oh?"
Regarding the goblin mage's "active request for battle", everyone was a little puzzled.
"Don't worry, I didn't intend to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the city to reveal your identity." As if sensing the suspicion and vigilance hidden in a few eyes, the goblin mage took the initiative to say frankly: "I'm just worried that my compatriots are not used to dealing with the military, and they may be exposed. In this way, I will be the 'commander' on the goblin's side, and I will cooperate with the Balalaika brothers to really play this play well. ā
"If you are not reassured enough, you can appoint Mr. Gregory to supervise me personally. I think that with Mr. Gregory's strength, he should be able to control the scene, right? After another pause, the goblin mage directly built a way.
"Why do you want to find me for this kind of thing..."Hearing Henry's words, Alchemy Life was the first to express its objection.
"Morty, this?" As for Gregory's origins, White is still in the dark.
"Yes." After thinking for a while, Moriarty made a direct decision: "Old Crow, according to the current actual situation, you think about whether there is anything else that needs to be adjusted in our plan." ā
"Yes, Your Excellency." The old werewolf looked at Henry, who volunteered, and nodded.
After another ten minutes, the Olympus commandos set off on the road again. At this time, the western sky was gradually filled with a faint golden light. However, the snowstorm has only passed, and the clouds are still thick, so you can't see the beautiful scenery of the sunset in the sky.
As Moriarty's party got closer to Krupp, villages of all sizes and sizes gradually appeared on both sides of Olympus' path.
There was no way, before Moriarty could choose to choose some remote side roads to avoid people, but at this moment they have come to the densely populated area in the south, so it is difficult to avoid it.
Fortunately, because it was already completely night, and it had only snowed heavily, most of the people in the goblin village chose to stay indoors honestly. Even if the goblins occasionally saw a large group of men and horses hurrying from the door of the house in the night, they would only think that the troops of the Yugoslav Union were doing a normal night march. And it would never be strange to think that it would be a commando of the Northern Alliance that would come across thousands of miles to sneak attack.
And about two hours before midnight, Olympus came to Krupp.
Leaving the Wolf Rider Company, the Crossbow Squad, and half of the goblin volunteers in a hidden location, Moriarty led the others slowly towards their goal.
In the procession, the three-headed Naga walked proudly at the front, and Moriarty and other "human prisoners of war" were tied to a string and followed behind them; As for the goblin volunteers, armed with weapons as guards, they followed on either side; Henry, on the other hand, walked side by side with Gregory, also disguised as a captive, with expressionless faces.
