Chapter 550: To the West (1)
Early the next morning, I arrived at the Kodo Beast Training Ground to the west.
I said goodbye to everyone at night, and in the morning they all sent me to the North City Gate before I went on my own mission.
In the room, I didn't take anything with me.
Originally, in my imagination, I still wanted to resign from the position of guardian warrior and leave without worry, but now, with Sansan, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Jixiang and Jili, and the 500-strong Bloodhoof Army, I still can't be free for the time being.
"The sky is high and the birds fly, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps!" Leo said two words in a somewhat interesting Chinese language, "After going out, there are ways to get free, as the so-called, there will be no foreign military orders, hahaha!" β
It can be seen that he is in a very good mood.
I wasn't in a better mood, but I relaxed a little.
Outside the Kodo training grounds, five hundred Bloodhoof were already waiting for me.
To my surprise, I saw Centurion Schalp.
For five hundred Bloodhoof, there are five centurions, but I only know the Sharpe centurion.
In addition to the soldiers, there were nearly thirty miscellaneous servants, as well as, eighty combat kodomon, five common kodomon, and five vehicles.
This is three or four times more than the participating delegations, which is very imposing, but compared with previous years, it is actually a shrinkage.
That's not what I care about, though.
I just want to get out of here and go west.
As for these soldiers, there were almost no new recruits, and there were no particularly old ones, all of them were in the prime of life in their thirties and forties.
After all, the battlefield in the west is not a good place to hone recruits, and what a young warrior like me needs to hone is not combat skills, but war skills and leading skills.
Moreover, for many soldiers, this will mean that they will never come back......
However, in comparison, our minotaurs have a relatively large chance of survival on the battlefield, after all, in terms of speed, strength, endurance, and skill, we minotaurs belong to the relatively average kind in the entire orc race, and correspondingly, it is easier to protect ourselves.
Like the wolf clan and the leopard clan, they have a large population, and although their strength is not as good as ours, they are also more likely to fall into madness.
Now, of course, with the Berserker Elixir, the modified Wolf Pollen, they wouldn't have lost so many capable combatants.
Large races such as the Bears, which themselves have small populations, and although they are incredibly lethal in war, they are also easy targets for the enemy to besiege - Leo refers to them as "targets for fire".
These things were told to me by the Centurion of Schalp.
I can see that he is deliberately trying to please me, but I am not disgusted, after all, among these five centurions, he is the only one I am familiar with, and the other centurions have no chance to get close to me. Moreover, his flattery is not to get something he shouldn't get, after all, I don't have any rights or benefits to give him.
He is so purely just a courtesy from a subordinate to a superior.
And I'm lacking that knowledge.
Or Leo said: "Leading troops to fight is also knowledge that will be used in the future." β
"You can't really take them to war, can you?" I say.
"I can't help you when the time comes," Leo said, "this is a major matter for the entire orc race, there will definitely be lions and tigers taking the lead, you are basically following your allies closely, and I don't think you have any exquisite battlefield layout, that is the specialty of human beings." β
I don't want to talk to him about these superfluous topics, but it's not completely ignorant either.
The team set off that morning, and the speed was actually faster than that of the participating delegations, because there were no priests in the team, and the miscellaneous servants were not ordinary miscellaneous servants, but from the army.
Captain Schalp said that the Bloodhoof Army, which has less than 3,000 people, has more than 1,000 logistics and miscellaneous servants, about half of which are still militia rotations.
"For humans, a team of five hundred people can't wait to bring two or three hundred people to the grain and grass logistics." Leo said.
"Are you talking about our world or the earth?" I looked at the Kodo cart pulling the rations and said.
"Earth, of course," Leo said, "you have space props here, and you see, your Sumeru bracelet alone can hold several months' worth of rations." β
"But there aren't that many space items," I said, "not even the Lord of Ron, but have you noticed that there is only one king of the lion and tiger clan......
"The king must have it," Leo said, "The priest probably has it, but this thing is too precious, who will be exposed like Zhao Ritian, but this also shows that the orc clan has not mastered the practice of space props, and if you want to learn, you have to find a human or an elf." β
"That's for later." I say.
"I'm sure I'm going to learn!" Leo said, "I've been wanting to complain about the package system in the game for a long time!" It's simply the bago of the bastard! β
"Okay, you plan slowly." I don't bother him complaining.
This time, we will not directly pass through the territory of the wolf clan, even if the entire grassland is now united to send troops to the west, but this does not mean that the contradiction has eased.
We started from the north of the city, followed the original route of suppressing bandits, passed through Xilan Town, and went straight to the junction of the Minotaurs, Trolls, and Wolves, entered the territory of the Troll Clan, and followed the border between the two clans to the northwest, until the western border.
The road is four to five times as long as it is from Thunder City to Animo City, but we can cover it in twice as long as we can.
The soldiers of the Bloodhoof Army are naturally very hard-working, and the miscellaneous servants are not ordinary civilians, and there are no situations that require special care, and they walk neatly.
In Leo's words: "Orders are forbidden, this is what an army should look like, although your team is a little rudimentary, but it is not a problem to provoke 5,000 humans, right?" β
"Ten thousand is no problem!" I said, "Why are you like Zhao Ritian, don't take human life seriously?" Anyway, the humans in this world are very similar to you earthlings. β
"He is indifferent to all life, I respect life, but on the battlefield, killing the enemy is also a kind of respect," Leo said, "Although this set is outdated on the earth, for a long time, this is a basic value judgment, how many enemies you can kill, it is honorable, but it is the same sin for you to slaughter innocent civilians, to kill ten people and 100,000 people!" β
"It's a bit of a twist," I said, "but I've always thought so, you remember, I told the elf Tia that as a person, I saved her because I didn't want to see her tortured, but on the battlefield I would kill her without mercy." β
"Honestly, this set of values has been outdated with us for almost a hundred years," Leo said, "but in your world, it can be regarded as a part of justice." β
"What the hell are we debating?" I said, "Let's talk about it, we all agree with each other?" β
"Who argued with you?" "That's the basic truth, but you're taking it astray." Okay, change the topic, according to the general plot, your footprints should be changed to travel all over the grassland, see the current situation and hidden dangers of all races, solve the crisis of the grassland and then embark on the road of adventure to the west, but now, there are not many races you have been to, not to mention, you haven't even stayed in the territory of the fox clan for a few days, it's really sloppy! β
"You didn't say there was such a story!" I say.
"It's just a direction, which has been changed little by little by you, or by you and me," Leo said, "It can also be said that it is your identity and personality that restrict the possibility of the plot, and in the future, you can temporarily break free from the shackles of identity and do more things." β
"It's all about saving Atayal," I said, "and nothing else, don't conflict with this!" β
"Of course," Leo said, "even for me, saving Atayal is just a way to go." β
"At least along the way." I say.
"Originally, I thought you would go on the road alone, but I didn't expect to carry the burden of more than 500 people." Leo said, "It's also unplanned, so let's get west as soon as possible!" β
"What was your original plan?" I asked.
"To go on the road alone, to appreciate the scenery of other races' territories, and to see the sufferings of the people," said Leo, "is the glorious and correct way to lay a firm ideological foundation for the future benefit of the grasslands." β
"I've seen the people's suffering," I looked at Sansan, who was following me closely, "and I'm not in the mood to appreciate the scenery or anything." β
"Alright, keep going!" Leo said.
A few days later, we arrived in the town of Xilan.
It's summer, and it's raining a few showers on the road, and the Xilan Lake in the south of Xilan Town is full of water, and the surrounding grasslands are even more lush, gathering herders from all over the world.
"You're a combination of farming and pastoralism, not pure herders," Leo said, "and that's not the same as the earth." β
"Why the same?" I say.
"It's ......," said Leo, "I'm just addicted, you're busy." β
The party entered the town of Xilan and was warmly welcomed by the mayor and the townspeople, especially the mayor, who happily slaughtered five Kodo beasts and three wild elephants to entertain us.
Seeing the livestock running around, the Tyrannosaurus rex excitedly ran out to start the barbecue, but I stopped it in time.
The speed of the Tyrannosaurus rex has actually increased a lot, but I haven't stopped improving, so I can stop it in time every time.
The team stopped for a meal in Xilan Town and continued on their way.
Two days later, we arrived at the junction with the Trolls.
When we crossed the border, the trolls on the other side were very enthusiastic, inviting our centurion and above officers to dinnerβthey didn't seem to be willing to give up a meal for five hundred......
A few of us who took the lead went, and the food was not as good as Xilan Town.
"Allies," a centurion whispered as he returned.......
Entering the territory of the Trolls, our pace has also increased. Memoirs of a bull head
