Chapter Seventy-Nine: Comparison

This abrupt attack on the camp was only a small episode, and the truly brutal battle was yet to come, and after this night attack, neither side had any bargains.

The Empire lost a veteran, and the Gnolls also had a leader mortally wounded, but this loss was nothing short of a war of hundreds of thousands of people.

For the sake of the country and for the sake of personal interests, the northern snowfield tribes were doomed to be destroyed, and after the empress ordered the replacement of the main general of the vanguard army, the imperial legions continued to march towards the snowfields after the dawn after packing their bags.

The news of the attack on the camp of the forward army last night now spread throughout the ranks, even Russell, who was in the rear of the legion, and the people of Russell.

At noon the next day, Russell and Carlos rode and followed the grain cart as if they were talking about something, Carter rode up and approached Russell and asked curiously: "Russell, have you heard about the vanguard army being ambushed by monsters?"

Russell pointed to Carlos beside him and smiled, "I'm discussing this with this handsome jack of all trades! ”

Hearing this, Carlos looked at Russell complainingly, and complained helplessly: "You know how to give me all kinds of nicknames!"

However, since Carter was curious to ask him what happened last night, he couldn't help but clear his throat and slowly tell the horrific story of the monster attack that happened last night.

"This is what a distant relative with whom I have a good relationship told me!" Carlos deliberately emphasized to prove the accuracy of his story.

Carter couldn't help but fall into deep thought after listening to Carlos's story, and after a while he said to the two of them: "I don't know if you have noticed, Carlos told that the monster that attacked our army this time is the appearance of a wolf-headed human body, so Russell, do you remember the monsters we encountered in the village, do they also all have the appearance of beast heads and human bodies?"

Russell nodded and agreed with Carter's statement, and took over Carter's topic and said: "After listening to Carlos's story, I did immediately think of the appearance of the monsters in the village, but I just carefully compared the difference between the two, and I found a significant difference, the monsters in the village are much worse than the monsters that attacked us last night.

Carter can remember how strong the old woman-turned-monster was, right? However, according to the rumors of the soldiers, the monsters with wolf heads were not very strong, and a soldier was enough to face or even kill a monster. ”

Carter said with a serious expression: "That's true, we were almost wiped out by that old woman, if every monster is as strong as her, then I can't imagine the consequences of such a terrible thing!"

Russell said: "It seems that this campaign will not be too easy, there may be more than one side of the forces involved in it, we must be careful and careful!

Carter hesitated, "But what if Russell is in danger?"

Russell showed a confident smile on his face, he pointed to the dawn on his waist and said confidently: "Don't look at my dawn because of the last accident was slightly damaged, but I can still deal with ordinary monsters by relying on him, you are optimistic that Miss Charlotte will not burden us!"

Charlotte's complaint came from the carriage of the Hill family on the side of the road: "Your Excellency Russell, how much have you underestimated my martial arts? If you don't believe me, we can now come down and compare to see who fell to the ground last, okay?"

Russell didn't expect Charlotte's ears to be so pointy, so he had to pretend not to hear Charlotte's complaints without saying a word.

The conversation between Russell and the others was only a trivial episode. After this attack, the army was no longer the rather lazy overall appearance of the past, and both nobles and ordinary soldiers realized that their carelessness could lead to the loss of their lives, and everyone began to prepare for the coming war.

The Empress and the ministers also realized that the enemy's sneak attack might continue, and they sent more scouts to scout the surrounding situation, and deliberately accelerated the pace of the march, intending to end this boring war quickly before the Snow Tribe had completed its final defense.

In the form of a rapid march, the Imperial Legion exerted extraordinary speed to quickly close the distance between them and the Snow Tribe, and a great battle was coming, and in the minds of most people, the Imperial Army would destroy the enemy as before, and be able to continue to add some impetus to the dying Imperial machine with the fruits of victory.
