"Yohe~ Now the rich aristocratic lords don't like beautiful women and gems, and they like the wood on our Celestian Ice Field, right? An accompanying tribal chief gave this merciless taunt to the captives who had surrendered.

Obviously, this kind of ridicule made these free mercenary captives very embarrassed, and one of the captives plucked up the courage to explain: "This lord, we don't want to be so embarrassed, but in order not to freeze to death here, we can only do this, this bit of fire is still us, it took almost a day of hard work to find it." ”

"In fact, the current free mercenaries have already spontaneously formed countless teams, half of which are to explore the ruins, and half of the team members are looking for wood and food, otherwise everyone will not be able to stay for a long time. In the mouth of this free mercenary, the current situation of their lives is actually tragic and outrageous.

When the little dwarf heard this, he was persuaded with rare kindness: "It's all come to this, why don't you give up, and leave here, go back to a place with a warm climate, gather around the fire, and drink a little wine or something, isn't it better than suffering here?" ”

Modo's beautiful description immediately made the faces of these captives look intoxicated, these things that might normally be extremely ordinary now have a fatal attraction to them.

But there is a good saying, 'Poor man must have something to hate,' and soon the captive who spoke roared: "How can it be possible, just go back like this, when will you be able to make a fortune and become a rich man, or will you be an obscure free mercenary all your life?"

Such a crazy clamor was actually very marketable among the other hundred and ten captives, and in the face of the strong pressure of the army, although these people did not echo it, but the fiery approval in their eyes completely betrayed their minds.

Faced with this crazy answer, Modo knew that these people were already in a state of madness, and no matter how much persuasion was powerless, he waved his hand at Konev, and continued to march with the army.

Konev stayed with hundreds of people, and they would use the violent means they were good at to calm down the captives, and ask Modo all the information he wanted to know......

After a short short march forward, the army of the Bear Knights stopped again, and Voroshilov, the Bear Knight, who had successfully escaped, reported to the little dwarf in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, our original camp is right in front of you. ”

In fact, without his report, the little dwarf was able to determine the former camp through his amazing eyesight, which was just a few hundred meters away.

The reason why it is said that it was once was because the camp, which was estimated to be wooden before, had been demolished and cleaned up a long time ago, and the corpses of dozens of Slavic men were lying there in all directions; their naked bodies, their clothes, and the ice and snow war bear mounts that had died in battle, had long since disappeared, and the large blood stains on the ground were so dazzling.

Mo Duo took a heavy breath and issued the first battle order of the day: "In the next time, as long as you see the mercenaries wearing the clothes of these fallen comrades, regardless of any explanation from them, they will be directly hacked to death on the spot." ”

Voroshilov and his men carefully packed the bodies of their fallen comrades into body bags, and they were to be brought back to the shores of Lake Chagan and finally buried in the cemetery of the tribal warriors closest to the ancestral spirits.

After all, only the bravest warriors of the tribe, and who died fighting for the tribe, are eligible to be buried here.

The little dwarf and the rest of the army of war bear knights stood solemnly on the ice and snow war bear, silently watching this ceremonial scene, and the screams of the captives in the distance kept coming from the wind, and it was estimated that Konev and others were using some special means against those prisoners who were not very cooperative.

When the corpses of the forty-nine Bear Knights were completely collected, Konev's side was also satisfied, and when he hurried over to report to Modo, he didn't even wipe the blood off his hands.

"Your Majesty, according to the confessions of the captives, the only way to enter the core area is still guarded by four major forces, and the scattered free mercenaries have united to attack once, but they have not been defeated, and now they plan to storm again tonight. Konev turned to the little dwarf and reported the information he had tortured.

Modo directly asked the question he wanted to know the most: "Have you asked who attacked our warriors?"

"I don't know who they were, but it is certain that it was one of the four forces guarding the passage, or the four of them acting together, because many people saw afterwards that after those people succeeded, they retreated to the depths of the ruins, and those forces that controlled the passage did not stop it at all. Konev replied.

Mo Duo took a breath, and the killing intent began to rise in his heart: "Is this news reliable?"

Konev nodded: "It should be reliable, we asked a dozen people separately, and they all answered like this, and they all confessed that they had been here for more than a month, or even longer, and no one had those cursed symptoms at all." ”

The enemy was in front of him, and for a time all the Bear Knights had their eyes fixed on His Majesty the little dwarf Tsar, waiting for Modo's decision.

The little gnome glanced in the direction of the ancient ruins a few miles away, the arrival of their army had obviously been noticed by the free mercenaries on the outskirts of the ruins, who were nervously poking their heads out of the area, their expressions of surprise on their faces......

"I'll fence it all up so they don't even think about running away. The little dwarf straightened his back and began to give orders.

"Then eat and rest on the spot, and when the evening comes, whether these free mercenaries launch an attack on the forces guarding the passage or not, when the time comes, we will go straight in......"

Speaking of this, before Modo's words were finished, an abrupt voice interjected: "Kill them all, and leave no one behind." ”

Mo Duo glanced at it, and it was actually wrapped like a dumpling, and after glaring at the goods fiercely, Mo Duo continued to order: "Those who surrender are tied up first, and if they dare to resist, they will all be hacked to death." ”

"Yes. Eighteen thousand voices rang out at the same time, like rolling thunder on a winter day.
