Chapter 90: The Trail of Sasen

As it turned out, Bai Qi's guess was not wrong at all, and that night, a terrible assassination took place in the city of Molinger.

In this assassination, none of Captain Sasen's men brought to Molinger City were spared, and only Captain Sasen, with his own strong personal strength, broke out of the encirclement and struggled to rush into the Voodoo Temple, and survived.

This failed assassination also caused heavy losses to the Darkwalkers among the Space Soldiers, and more than thirty Darkwalkers died in the counterattack of the water thieves and trolls.

The arrival of the space soldier fleet made everyone feel a strong threat.

The first to react was the dragon army.

Despite the victory, the Dragonman Kingdom was exhausted, especially the large number of casualties of the slave legions, so that the morale of the lizardmen and kobolds was on the verge of collapse.

Moreover, the purpose of the dragons to start this war has actually been basically achieved, so after discovering that a powerful force has appeared on the battlefield that can even change the situation of both sides of the war, the dragon army did not hesitate too much and began to retreat.

The retreat of the dragon army did not make the trolls feel too happy, whether it was the lizardmen or the kobolds, both of whom were known for their breeding speed.

As long as there is enough food, it only takes three to five years to increase the number of kobolds who can lay a dozen eggs in a litter tenfold.

Lizardfolk are also oviparous creatures, they can lay at least four eggs in a litter, and it only takes ten years for a lizardman cub to grow into adulthood, and as long as there is enough food, it only takes ten years, and the population of lizardfolk can also increase exponentially.

The Zanga trolls, who had already lost two-thirds of their population, were even more exhausted than the Dragonman Kingdom, and they simply simply did not have the strength to launch a counterattack while the Emerald Kingdom was at its weakest.

It only takes ten years. The Emerald Kingdom will be able to fully recover its pre-war forces, however. Ten years is definitely not enough time to reproduce the difficult trolls to restore their strength.

So, the withdrawal of troops from the Emerald Kingdom. It didn't make the trolls feel any relaxation, but it was the assassination last night that gave the trolls a great sense of crisis.

The human territory on the other side of the Arare River Valley is almost the only way for the trolls to retreat, and this war is more critical for the trolls than for humans and orcs, and it is related to the continuation of the Zangar clan.

After confirming the complete withdrawal of the dragon army, the Voodoo Council of Zangar finally made an important decision to shift all the focus of the Zangar clan to the banks of the Sara River. Focus all your energy on the defense line of humanity, and open up the passage to the human territory at any cost.

On the third day of the withdrawal of the Dragonman's army, a troop of more than 3,000 trolls left the city of Molinger and headed northwest of the city.

The scouts sent out by Bai Qi soon discovered the traces of this troll team.

Bai Qi was unaware of the assassination that had taken place in the city of Moringer, but some news from Adrian led him to speculate that Captain Saxon might be in this team.

The reason is simple. As Adrian tracked the team, he spotted traces left by Darklanders and Rangers.

Darkwalkers and Ranger can become invisible through guò magic, but in the process, they inevitably leave some distinctive traces.

As a Darkwalker. Adrian has a high level of tracking skills, making it easy to spot these traces.

The news from Gander, who stayed on the shores of Lake Zanga, also confirmed Bai Qi's suspicions.

Half of the combined fleet of Space Soldiers departed from the port of the Mid-Lake Islands. More than five hundred space soldiers landed on the north shore of the nearest lake and burrowed into the jungle.

Bai Qi reacted immediately. He left Adrian alone to continue tracking the troll team, recalling all the Chosen Warriors who were out there. Then get ahead of the troll team and move northwest.

To tell the truth, this series of changes brought about by the Combined Fleet of Space Soldiers was not expected by Bai Qi, which undoubtedly made him a little wolf.

The most important thing is that he didn't expect that the combined space soldiers would be so bold and enter Lake Zanga openly.

Bai Qi had always thought that these people were likely to sneak into the jungle secretly, after all, there were too many of them.

But now that I think about it, the space soldiers' approach is not wrong, the combined space soldiers are already very powerful, and they do have the capital to compete head-on with the trolls.

This can't blame Bai Qi too much, after all, he has only been in the space for a short time, and most of the contacts are small team battles, and his limited strength makes him always very stingy in calculating every bit of strength in his hands, and always carefully considering how to save his subordinates.

Bai Qi led his men and followed the path opened up by the trolls in the jungle, while estimating in his heart that the combined forces of space soldiers would ambush the troll team there.

According to the information provided by the troll captives, in the city of Molinger, there are ten thousand troll warriors, more than three hundred voodoo warriors, more than a hundred voodoo warriors, and more than a hundred witch doctors.

The town of Zugbu, as the current second line of defense of the Zangar clan, has been fully militarized, stationed with five thousand troll warriors and one hundred voodoo warriors.

These seventeen thousand troll warriors, more than four hundred voodoo warriors, more than one hundred voodoo warriors, and more than a hundred witch doctors were actually most of the remaining military forces of the Zangar clan at this time.

There are also 5,000 troll warriors and 100 voodoo warriors, scattered across several towns from Zugbu to the valley of the Arare River.

Originally, there were more than 100 warships of the Zanga clan and more than 3,000 sailors stationed at the mouth of the Arare River valley, but after the battle of the Gray Fortress, most of them were lost, and now there are less than 50 warships and more than 1,000 troll warriors left at the mouth of the Arare River valley.

It is almost a hundred kilometers from the city of Molinger to the nearest town to the northwest, Zugbu.

There are also three troll towns near the town of Zugbu. Further north, it was out of the original control of the Zanga clan, and there were only a few small tribes of trolls living before.

After being cornered by the Emerald Kingdom, the Zanga clan had to set their sights on here, conquering more than a dozen small tribes that survived here, and opened a road to the mouth of the Arare River Valley, and established a camp and dock in the bay at the mouth of the river valley.

If he were the leader of this group of space soldiers and chose an ambush site, he would consider two ambush sites.

The first better ambush point should be near the midpoint of the passage between Molinger and Zugbu Town.

Fifty kilometers is a long distance even for a troll who is good at running through the jungle, and even if you want to stay in shape after arriving at the battlefield, it will take at least an hour and a half to get here.

The second better ambush point is on the hundreds of kilometers of road between the town of Zugbu and the mouth of the Arare River valley, this section of the road is very desolate, there are no reinforcements nearby, and this group of trolls can be eliminated calmly and slowly.

Bai Qi planned to go to the first high-quality ambush point to ambush in advance, the second high-quality ambush point was too far away, time-consuming and laborious, and the space soldiers were a group of impatient guys.

He led the group through Howling Sky Wolf Mountain, galloping north more than twenty kilometers along the road the trolls had built in the jungle, lurking around an open glade.

The climate in the dark forest is close to that of a tropical jungle, and even in the north there is a subtropical jungle climate, in which glades are rare.

The reason for the emergence of this large glade, which is five or six square kilometers in size, is due to the special environment here.

It's a large rocky beach that looks a bit like a dry riverbed or the bottom of a lake.

In fact, there are quite a few of these barren glades in the vicinity, which Bai Qi reckon may have been caused by the diversion of the river, but none of this is important.

When the trolls carved out the path in the jungle, they mostly avoided this kind of rocky place, but in this rocky beach, the stones are not large and the terrain is relatively flat, so the trolls choose to pave a rudimentary road in this rocky beach with dirt and trees.

It's definitely not a good idea to fight a jungle battle with these trolls who survive and breed in the jungle, and this rocky beach is definitely the best battlefield nearby, and there is no one.

Bai Qi led the warriors through the glade and lurked in the jungle to the northwest of the clearing.

About two hours later, a large group of space soldiers arrived in the clearing.

The number of them is about five hundred, and most of the powerhouses who have entered the space of this mission have come here.

The group of people gathered on the south side of the clearing, and several leaders observed in the clearing, gathered together to discuss for a while, and seemed to have a decision.

Led by several leaders, several teams exited the clearing, split in two, and burrowed into the jungle.

At this stage, almost everyone of the space soldiers has learned tracking techniques and is very good at hiding traces, so hundreds of space soldiers have disappeared into the jungle almost without a trace, and it is difficult to find the traces they left if they do not have a certain level of tracking skills.

After the space soldier burrowed into the jungle, he lurked, and the glade fell silent again.

Bai Qi had long speculated that if the space soldiers decided to ambush the trolls here, how they would ambush them, so he would take people to hide in the jungle opposite the clearing.

As for the marks left on the road, there is no need to worry, almost every day there are teams of trolls transporting supplies to and from the road, and the obvious traces left on the road do not attract attention. (To be continued......)
