As the troops reached the depths of the forest, the commander of the orc army apparently noticed that something was wrong, and he received reports indicating that the route the scouts were exploring for the troops should be along the edge of the forest.

Although the commander has been in the dense forest all his life, and he does not know the specific environment inside the forest, at this moment, the location of the troops does not look like they are on the edge of the forest.

Out of an abundance of caution, he ordered the troops to stop continuing the force, and then asked his adjutant to find a guide.

The guides were two goblins, for the path had been discovered by their scouts, and they were talking about something as they went, and their voices were unexpectedly quiet.

When the orc commander saw them coming, he asked, "Something is wrong with this route, and it is clearly different from what you described in your report?"

"I think so!" the goblin actually had a particularly serious expression, and as if it was not his business, "I am also discussing this with my deputy... We're trying to find a way to remedy it!"

"Didn't you plan this route in advance?, how could it go wrong?" The orc commander was very upset with the goblin's tone and expression, but he restrained himself and didn't show it.

"Your Excellency, because of time, of course, it's mainly because of you," the goblin explained slowly.

"No more nonsense!!" the orc commander hated the goblins.

The goblin guide shrugged: "We were divided into many groups when we searched this dense forest, and the specific route was not marked by me and my assistant, we just chose the route according to the marks they made along the way. ”

"Then why don't you let the clansmen who planned the march route lead the troops?" a bad premonition began to creep in the orc commander's heart.

"I'm so sorry they were killed yesterday by scouts from the human forces, oh, that's pathetic!" the goblin made an exaggerated expression, as if it was going to cry, but it didn't cry.

The orc commander's eyes flashed, "You mean the group of human scout soldiers who disappeared at the same time as our two squad fighters last night?"

"It should be!" replied with a goblin nodding after a moment's thought.

"Damn!" the orc commander's face had turned ugly, "You idiots, don't you have brains? I'm sure the human soldiers have fled back, and they got the intel they wanted!"

"You mean our spies betrayed us?" A hint of anger flashed across the goblin's smiling face, but quickly vanished.

"That's for sure!" the orc commander immediately turned to his lieutenant and said, "We can't stay here, we're stepping into the human trap step by step, no! Maybe we've already stepped into the trap now, give the order, let the troops go back the way they came!"

With that, he turned his head to glare at the goblin guide, "You should know the way back, right?"

"Of course, just follow the signs along the way!" replied the goblin, without thinking.

"You're hopeless, it's a sign left by humans, you still want to go back along the way, are you dreaming? I'm asking if you can get my troops out of this damn place!" the orc commander's anger was already evident.

"Of course, we have the map...", the goblin raised his hand, and was about to take out the map that he had in his pocket, when suddenly, a "whoosh!" sound sounded, and the poor goblin guide felt a sweetness in his throat and fell to the ground, his eyes beginning to white.

The surrounding orc warriors didn't react at all, and at this time, there was another "whoosh!" sound, and the goblin guide assistants who had been silent also fell one after another.

"Quick! protect the commander!" the orc lieutenant only then could react, he was already standing in front of the orc commander with a round shield.

"Stupid, look at our guides, they can't die!" the orc commander pushed his lieutenant away, and quickly crouched down to check the breath of the two goblin guides!

They are not weak, and they are obviously going to die!

The sudden assassination did not confuse the ranks, several centurions had already organized their soldiers, ready to send them in the direction where the arrows were fired, a group of guards who were also dead to their commanders, and soldiers farther away began to guard at the reprimands of their respective officers.

When the orc commander saw the few centurions who were going to pursue, he hurriedly shouted: "Don't go, if you go, you will be sent to death, order the troops to be on guard on the spot, and let the commander of the goblins come to see me!"

This is undoubtedly the wisest decision!

Owen was behind the gloomy tree, his eyes were surprisingly bright, and when he saw the orc troops regain their composure after a short period of chaos, he couldn't help but secretly exclaim, "It's a pity!", he whispered to Alvin next to him: "It's a pity, if they come in, they must let them come and go!"

Alvin only nodded, looking at Owen with a somewhat stunned expression.

"Squadron leader, you won't blame you for reporting directly to Baron Rainer, the matter was very urgent at that time, and it was a knight named Punk who dragged me there, I have no way to refuse!" Owen saw Alvin who was stunned, and quickly explained, this is the third time he has explained.

This was Owen's subconscious behavior, he was a little embarrassed now, when he asked Punk for someone, he didn't expect Punk to actually give him the scout squadron he asked for from Baron Rena.

And, as well as his former immediate boss.

"Owen, you don't need to explain to me, Baron Rainer and the Punk Knight have already explained the situation to me before coming, and besides, I am under your command now, and the commander doesn't have to explain too much to his subordinates!"

He knew that if Owen could really succeed in blocking the orc's troops in the dense forest this time, then the other party's future would be countless times better than his own, as a veteran who had served in the army for more than five years, Alvin knew very well what this meant, and he could only let go of the mustard in his heart, because these were worthless for money and status.

"It doesn't seem like much use for us to kill their guides, and don't forget, they should have already drawn up the map!" Alvin reminded.

Owen smiled, "According to the intelligence analysis we obtained from that goblin yesterday, their map is not complete at all, and the only relatively complete map is already in my hands!"

As he spoke, he took out a map from his bosom, the same map he had shown to Rainer and them this morning, but it was not his own drawing, but a copy of the goblin's map, and as for the original, he had already destroyed it.

"It's not accurate information, so be careful!" Alvin reminded again.

"Understood!" Owen nodded, "Now, the only thing to do is to find a way to make the goblin mercenaries ineffective, and in this bad situation, the repeating crossbow arrows in their hands are the most advantageous!"

"That's what I thought, do you have any ideas?"

Owen nodded, "Ten kilometers north of here, there's a branch of the Sushui River, I've had people build a simple dam upstream, now, we just need to find a way to lead them there!"
