............................................................

Baroque's target shifted, from the mage to the two hundred Phantom Crystal Armored Samurai who came to help. Because of the Phantom Crystal snacks delivered to the door, the four brothers of Dunwolf, who have always been lazy and lazy in recent days, have been in high spirits, and they keep urging him to immediately find a way to lure out those moving snacks and let them feast!

The situation with the enemy is not clear, and the Baroque does not act rashly. Anyway, he has a cheat-like totem beast Rak, who can unscrupulously probe all Davenport's meetings with the Chinese army. Of course, the premise is that Davenport doesn't have the magician put a magical defense shield outside the main tent. Because in that case, unless the totem beast Rak shows his form, he will not be able to pass through the magic shield silently. This is also the reason why Baroque did not send Rak out in the first place, because Davenport was always cautious enough in the past, and asked the magician to defend every military meeting. Although Davenport didn't know about the existence of the totem beast Rak, but only guarded against the presence of spies in the army, he unintentionally intervened in the willow and prevented Rak from entering.

The destruction of 500,000 cavalry eventually affected Davenport. After he changed his mind and prepared to conquer the orcs again, he was at a loss to know that he was already a little restless, and he would not even let the magician shield him during the military discussion. This made the totem beast Rak enter the military tent without accident, so the Baroque, who was dozens of miles away, was equivalent to participating in the military discussion ...... Davenport's military tent!

Davenport had a new plan, starting with finding a way to safely cross the Fracture Mountains. And with Lu Kiyan and the two Phantom Armor Warriors of the Centurion, he didn't have to be careful anymore. Directly arrange for Lu Kiyan to lead the Phantom Armor Warriors to take the lead, and then tens of thousands of elite heavy armor soldiers will pass through the Fractured Mountain, clean up all the possible threats in the mountain, and then build a defense on the opposite side to protect the passage of the main force of the army.

The Baroque also knew. Unless you want to fight the Phantom Warriors of Lukiyan in the Fractured Mountains, this line of defense is actually useless. After all, the rugged terrain there was also bad for the orcs. Even those locations that are conducive to ambushes are unlikely to hide too many ambushes. If there are too few orc soldiers in ambush, it will have little effect on the human army at all.

Baroque also immediately and decisively sent an order to Mouru. Let him withdraw the hidden warriors in the Fractured Mountain, and lead the army to retreat again, ready to stop the human army on the third line of defense!

In the west, the small alluvial plain was flooded by the excavation of the lake, and the flood there could not recede for a short time, so the road was cut off. It was the Baroque himself who led Tulayan. The more than 100,000 orcs on Anglei's side moved east, through the swamp and jungle, to the front of the human army.

The swamp was muddy and impassable, and it was full of dangers. Fortunately, there was once a small orc tribe living around the swamp and was familiar with the several safe passages inside, so Baroque deliberately selected the orc warriors of that small tribe from the army to be guides. Even if the progress was a little slow, it was finally possible to pass the swamp for 100 miles without danger.

Walking through the swamp, Baroque looked back. It feels a bit of a pity. If the human army chooses to pass through this side, he can prepare a ruthless conspiracy again. Those pits that can be found everywhere will be a nightmare for human soldiers!

The leader of the Phantom Armor Warriors, Lukiyan, still obeyed Davenport's orders, and led two Phantom Armor 100 teams into the Fractured Mountain area, exploring the way while searching for possible ambushes of the orcs. However, until they successfully passed through, they did not find the shadow of half an orc. The Phantom Armor Warriors naturally thought that their appearance made the orcs think that they could not fight, so they obediently retreated and left. So Lukyan sent someone back to report Davenport road safety. When the army could be brought along, there was a disdain in the tone of the samurai who had spoken the message, which made Davenport angry. But there was nothing he could do, after all, he could punish or even execute anyone in the army at will. But there is no right to punish these illusory warriors, because this right is only in the hands of the patriarchs and the pope.

The orc army seemed to have disappeared without a trace overnight, so much so that it took four or five days for the human army of one and a half million to pass through the Broken Mountain safely. After another day of rest on the opposite side, I embarked on the journey again.

It's a rare place with gentle terrain and lush grass. Extraordinarily rich. While there are always gentle undulating slopes, there are no annoying rugged hills or muddy streams. The human army does not have to wade into the water or climb the mountain, which is much easier.

It's no wonder that the orcs didn't appear, as far as the terrain here is concerned, the line of sight will be greatly affected by the slope, and the orc cavalry can't grasp the overall situation around them, and they can't give full play to the advantage of coming and going vertically and horizontally. Because if they sneak up on the human army, they are likely to be hidden behind a certain hillside by a certain human army, quietly cutting off the retreat, or even finally causing the entire army to be wiped out.

This was determined by the disadvantage of troops, and Davenport and Baroque saw this clearly. There are many human armies, they need this kind of terrain, and the orc army is less than one-third of the humans, and in terms of frontal combat power, the orcs are no match for humans. So knowing that leaving it alone will bring the human army closer and closer to the Valley of Miracles, Baroque can still only make this choice.

This continued for several days, until the human army safely passed through the gently sloping meadows and stepped into the barren lands deep in the northern tundra. Plants on the ground are starting to sparse there, and even though it's still summer, the weather here gets cold in the morning and evening. Then, the traces of the orc army were finally discovered. In the rear of the army, in the front, on the left and to the right, there were orc cavalry galloping. They shouted, drew closer, and wantonly insulted and provoked.

And in the air, from time to time, a Thunderhawk beast armored warrior will approach the airspace of the human army, and they will hide outside the killing range of human crossbow arrows, taunting humans and provoking the anger of some people. And the human wind whispering scout knew that he was not the opponent of the Thunder Eagle beast armored warriors, and obediently hid in the army.

From the moment the orcs provoked, Davenport knew the orc's tricks. He immediately invited Lukyan to his side, knowing that this irascible fellow would not be able to withstand the insults and provocations of the orcs............ Especially now that those orcs are actually insulting Pope Margus, if Lukiyan hears it, he will definitely lose his mind in anger.

How could Lukiyan not hear it, but he wasn't as rude and irascible as he seemed. A person who can be valued by the Pope will definitely not be a simple reckless man. Davenport invited him to his side, which was a gesture of kindness, and he would not fail to appreciate it. It was Lukiyan who was very relieved at first, and ordered the Phantom Armor warriors to abide by military discipline and not to go out at will. As long as the human army marches towards the Valley of Miracles step by step, the orc army that will always be forced to jump out of the decisive battle on its own.

In war, we must not be impatient because we are at a disadvantage. Because if you lose your composure, it often means the beginning of a bad ending. Baroque has patience, and he is not slow to carry out his schemes.

At this time, it was less than eight hundred miles away from the Valley of Miracles, and the Baroque no longer divided its troops, but gathered all the orc armies and commanded them in a unified manner. After so many days of fighting, although the human race was annihilated by 500,000 cavalry, plus sneak attacks from time to time, and tens of thousands of human soldiers were killed. But the orcs are not intact either. Except for Tulayan, they suffered a big loss, losing tens of thousands of orc warriors. Along the way, tens of thousands of orcs were either killed in battle, or wounded, and had to retreat back to the Valley of Miracles to recuperate. At this time, there were only a little more than 350,000 orc soldiers left in the hands of the Baroque.

If you were someone else, you would have lost confidence long ago in the face of the disparity in strength. But Baroque still looked indifferent, and was still in the mood to joke with the brothers beside him. His performance also made the orcs, who were already feeling nervous and under great pressure, much easier.

Baroque also knew that it was wishful thinking to win head-to-head. He is not yet a god, and he cannot defeat an army of 1.5 million humans with more than 300,000 orcs. But if some favorable conditions are created, it may be able to have the effect of breaking the surface with points. And this so-called advantageous condition now seems to the Baroque to have two points.

The first is naturally to find a way to destroy the nearly 2,000 mages of the human race, which is also the deadliest threat, which is directly related to the life and death of the Valley of Miracles! As long as the Phantom Armor Samurai is destroyed, the morale of the human race will collapse again, and it will no longer be possible to maintain the stability of the army. At that time, he will also have a good opportunity to sneak up on the human mage.

It can be said that these two points are linked. The provocative actions of the Baroque were intended to provoke the anger of Lukiyan's loss of mind. The information that Dennis knew about Lukiyan made Baroque think of a shady solution, and he believed that if Lukiyan was still a normal man, he would definitely not be able to bear it!

After a few days of normal provocations, the orc's style suddenly changed. They began to expose scandals within the Holy See, such as how many illegitimate children a certain senator had, and the adultery between a certain apocalypse and which elder's wife. The son of a certain senator had an affair with his father's lover............ And so on, all the peachy news, through the loud voice of the orcs, all reached the ears of the human soldiers.

It's none of their business, neither Davenport nor Lukiyan cares, and even they listen to it with relish. Although many of these ** news are clear to them themselves, and they are extremely wary of the intelligence work of the orcs, it is not enough to make them lose their temper.

Then, what happened next completely caused the situation to spiral out of control............ (To be continued.) )
