Chapter 624: Turning to War (1)
If I didn't have a good feeling or a bad feeling for a female assassin before, I hate her a little now.
Leo also said a little helplessly: "At this time, it can really add to the chaos." ”
The member of the elite regiment who came up with the idea earlier also said: "There are a lot of goblins in the city doing business, we can catch one of them......"
I looked at him with some dissatisfaction, and he realized that there was something wrong with his words.
"Anyway, we can't go," I said, "there must be another way, and it's a big deal that we keep our way out of the city!" ”
The female assassin said proudly: "Out of the west of the city is the plain, and there are countless roads ......."
If it weren't for Leo's sake, I probably wouldn't have let her finish her sentence.
Sansan looked at me eagerly.
I'm a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Leo came with new news in time.
"There's a scout coming, unexpectedly......" he said.
My guess is that there was an accident at the Iron Wall, but it wasn't.
It was this person who was unexpected.
It's Crow Man Chloe!
Chloe stopped beside us, saluted first, and then said, "Deputy Commander and two ten-man elders, Captain Wren has a new mission!" ”
He looked at me without a change in his gaze, as if we didn't know each other.
"This guy has learned to be patient." Leo's praise is still not friend or foe.
Although Chloe won the challenge, he was not popular with the Eagle Clan, and naturally he did not enter the Tiger Clan, so he was assigned to the Leo Clan route to the south, and I wondered if Sheena Tempest and the War Drums did not see him when they went south, and now I realize that he was recruited by James into the scout team.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"The new holy relics appeared in the southern route army war zone, and we detected the elves with a large number of holy relics, which are likely to be the elves who stole the holy relics in the first place," Chloe said solemnly, "Commander Wren has an order, let go of the holy relics here first, and all of them will be transferred to the south!" ”
At this moment, everyone was a little surprised.
I didn't miss the opportunity and said, "Go, all retreat!" Go and inform the two Centurions to the north! ”
At this moment, no one objected.
"That's right!" Leo said, "I have a way!" ”
Everyone sprang into action, and I said to the female assassin, "You're useless! ”
As he spoke, a small ball of lightning condensed from his fingertips and stabbed her in the back.
The female assassin was powerless to resist, and was so shocked that she had convulsions, and finally, her hair exploded, she was covered in smoke, rolled her eyes, and collapsed on the ground foaming at the mouth.
Everyone looked at me with calm expressions.
"Gone!" I walked forward without looking back.
Sansan smugly glanced at the female assassin on the ground and followed.
Walking out, Leo exhaled: "Whew, it's good if no one touches her......"
I said, "Are you sure?" ”
Leo said, "With my knowledge of electricity, she won't die unless you increase your energy." ”
I said, "That's good......"
The scene just now was all acting.
Leo used a "principle of electricity" that I could not understand for the time being, creating the illusion that the female assassin had been killed by me.
This small branch is complete.
As for whether this female assassin will meet her ill-intentioned kindred, that's none of my business, anyway, the nearby orcs have retreated.
After another walk, Crow Crow joined us with his iron arms and fangs.
I asked Chloe, "What's the situation?" ”
Chloe said honestly: "One of our companions, Beckard, found out that the elves were transferring the relics in the middle of the Elven Forest and the City of Chaos, so the news came out, but he himself was killed by the elves. ”
White Cade is the white werewolf we met outside of the City of Chaos.
"White Cade is dead?" I was a little surprised.
Hina Breeze and the War Drums also showed regret on their faces, but the red fangs, who were also werewolves, were a little disdainful......
"General Wren asked us to rush over overnight, didn't he?" I asked.
"Yes!" Chloe said, "The scout team is leaning over there as well. ”
"Then don't you care about the holy relics here?" Iron Arm asked, "Even if it's just one, you shouldn't give it up, right?" ”
"Isn't that obvious? It's better to find a few more ones than to waste time here with so many people, so it's better to arrange for some spies to infiltrate them......"
I thought of a question and asked, "Does the human kingdom have any spies that we have planted?" ”
"Yes, but it doesn't work...... War Drums replied to me in place of Chloe, "after all, everyone is mortal enemies, and it is difficult to rebel, and a race like goblins that dare not offend at both ends has no way to find out important news." ”
"Alright," I lied, "when we get back the relics from the south, we'll come back here, even if we go deep into the core of the human realm, I'll get the relics back!" ”
"Of course!" The drums said, "That's what we think too!" ”
"Well, you're getting more and more of a behind-the-scenes boss now," Leo said, "and you don't blush a bit." ”
"It's just what a normal adult should have." I say.
"Hehe......" Leo smiled, but said nothing else.
The return journey was quite smooth, and by the time we returned to the Iron Wall Fortress, the all-out attack of the Northern Route Army had begun, and the original human army, plus the reinforcements that had arrived one after another, had completely retreated to the Iron Wall Fortress, and the Northern Route Army had reached the open space where I defeated the magician who burned the auspicious tail at that time, and further on, it was half of the moat.
From the view of the Grey Sparrow, I saw that the bridge over the moat had been destroyed, and the Orc Northern Route Army was separated by a moat, throwing long-range weapons at each other on both sides.
The so-called weapons are nothing more than arrows, javelins, darts and axes, etc., but on such a large battlefield, these things are almost thrown out and there is no return, so more people are throwing stones or more common, things that can be caught at hand.
The humans are prepared to throw stones, and there are a few small trebuchets, and the orcs only have their hands on the side, but with the physical strength of the orcs, it is a good weapon to directly tear down the surrounding houses.
The trebuchet caused a few casualties to the orcs, but it was still quite superior compared to humans.
Of course, the legal professions on both sides are not idle, and the skills of magicians and priests are thrown out, which is often a disaster for a group of people on the other side, and at this point, the fate of human soldiers and orc soldiers is not much different - in the face of elemental energy, whether it is anger or fighting spirit, it is weaker after all.
But in general, humans have the absolute upper hand.
Leo's explanation was that if the human trebuchets and crystal cannons had not been destroyed by us, the casualties on the orc's side would definitely have doubled or even more.
I'd like to see the power of trebuchets and crystal cannons, but I didn't get a chance.
Many of us wanted to join the battle, but we could only watch and bypass from the sidelines, and some of us looked at the battlefield with loud shouts of killing, and even showed greedy expressions that we couldn't drink alcohol......
I wondered why the army didn't take the two sides of the iron fortress, but when I saw the end of the moat, it was wrapped in a thick wall full of thorns, and there were magicians to defend it, and I immediately understood that it was not cost-effective to attack both sides.
Leo said, "Why did you move the wall to the front and the moat to the back? Is this the plan of the Duke of White Iron? ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the water in the moat can be used to irrigate the farmland, right?" ”
Before we could finish speaking, we saw the devastated farmland......
"Alas, existence is reasonable," said Leo, "but I don't think the Iron Fortress can be defended, so whatever!" ”
And just like that, we returned to the prince of Wren.
"Without further ado, please go as soon as possible! Except for the two holy relics sold to the human side, the rest are in the south! "If it's too late and the holy remains enter the City of Chaos, then it's trouble!" ”
"Is the City of Chaos difficult to deal with?" I asked.
"It's not a problem to take it down, but the magicians in the City of Chaos have teleportation arrays," said the Wren Prince, "Tell us what you need, and then hurry to go, and I'll be there later!" ”
I said, "I'm sorry, General Wren, we haven't found ...... yet."
The prince of Wren waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this yet!" ”
Then, we set off.
At this time, the sun begins to set in the west.
We arrived here yesterday evening, and it's not been a day or a night.
This time, five squads, plus supernumerary personnel, we had fifty or sixty people rushing to the Southern Route Army theater together.
"When people are busy, they feel very fulfilled," Leo said, "and you see, in less than a day, does it feel like thirty-seven days?" ”
"Why thirty-seven days?" I asked.
"It doesn't matter," Leo said...... "The point is, time flies slowly, right?" ”
I said, "It's a little slow......
The day's battle was indeed full and intense, but the days of the next stumble were much faster, and four days later, we were to the south, and the southern army was slowly approaching the Elven Forest.
Instead of joining up with the Southern Route Army, we went straight to the forest between the Elven Forest and the City of Chaos.
At this time, the Northern Route Army had unsurprisingly taken the Iron Wall Fortress.
It wasn't Crow Crowe who delivered the news to us, but another strange scout.
I'm not surprised that the Fortified Fortress has been breached, but there are always some unexpected things that happen.
"Twenty people wanted to recreate your heroic move, infiltrated the Iron Wall Fortress from the rear, and were killed by the magicians, their heads hung over the fortress in place of the original banner, and both the Dick and the Ace Patriarch were a little unhappy with you......" said the scouts.
"What's the matter with Captain Guan Bihong?" Hu En was straightforward, "If you don't have the ability, you will be sent to death!" "I want to talk about "Memoirs of the Bull Head" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "Youyue Literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
