Chapter 37 ["Vic's Conspiracy"]
It was not only all the battle sequences in Sinclair County that were woken up by the sound of the bell, but also General Wilton, who had just come down from the castle tower and had not slept for a few minutes, and hurried out before his armor was fully put on. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Wilton originally thought that this month's 'Beast Tide' would not be too fierce, because so many years of experience told him that the 'Beast Tide' was relatively balanced for three days, that is, if he guarded the first wave, he almost knew the situation in the next few days, so he didn't care too much about this 'Beast Tide', not to mention that there was also Wa Tashi, who he thought had the potential of half a general.
And the uneasiness in his heart before the battle also calmed down with the easy battle, but he didn't expect the nightmarish bell to ring, and what he was most worried about finally happened.
Walking briskly on the stairs leading to the tower, Wilton felt that the sky was darker than when he went down the tower, but it was already approaching early morning, shouldn't it be getting brighter and brighter?
When he walked to the tower, Wilton's army had already gathered under the city walls, eleven squadrons, each squadron of 10,000 people, a total of 110,000 soldiers, waiting for someone with authority to issue a battle plan, but Wilton saw the corpses all over the city tower and the rest of the panicked soldiers, Wilton could not see the existence of an orc who threatened them.
Looking around, Wilton finally found Wazashi, huddled in a corner, shivering, without Wilton's image of a brigadier general.
A minute passed, Wilton still didn't see where the enemy was, so that he couldn't give orders at all, Wazashi was a little mentally disturbed, and he couldn't answer Wilton's questions properly, and the soldiers on the city wall all ran down in panic, if it weren't for the few remaining minotaurs outside the city wall, Sinclair County might have been lost.
A bad premonition appeared in Wilton's mind, he suspected that this was a conspiracy, a conspiracy directed by 'Hypocrite' Vic, Wilton believed that more than a thousand corpses were the result of cannibalism than the orcs attacked Sinclairshire, otherwise why couldn't he see even a single orc corpse.
If understood this way, it would better explain why Vic appeared on the walls of Sinclair County before the Beast Tide. But what is Victor's? Wilton can only explain that it is to weaken Aldington's forces, so Vic is definitely not loyal to Aldington.
Thinking of this, Wilton suddenly shuddered, he now seriously suspected that Vic was the remnant of the Veblen Empire, and created such an accident to constantly weaken Aldington's strength, so as to avenge the destruction of the Veblen Empire.
Wilton is very glad that Vic was discovered by him when he first launched his revenge plan against Aldington, and as a general of the Empire, he will never allow anyone to do bad things to Aldington.
"Soma, get me that boy Vick out of Sinclairshire, and bring him to me at once, right away, dead or alive. Wilton spat and said, "A traitor to this empire." ”
"Yes, General. ”
Wilton's personal guard Soma took the order very respectfully and then retreated with all the guards, he didn't know how General Wilton would mention Count Vic at this time, Soma still heard of Count Vic, he was definitely the number one person in Aldington, and he usually nodded his head and said hello.
Today, when Wilton asked him to find Vic out, he was still trembling, this person is not something he dares to provoke, if something is wrong, Vic will kill him, it is estimated that only Wilton will be sad because of the loss of him.
Soma could only hope that what General Wilton said was true, and if Vic was really a traitor to the Empire, he would still be able to follow Wilton to get a credit.
......
After Soma left, Wilton lifted up Wazashi in the corner with one hand and slapped him twice, he was really disappointed in Wazashi, how much of a thing scared him like this, I think when Jeff dug him out of the mass grave, he wasn't necessarily scared to the point of insanity.
Young people are young people, the road is too calm, facing big things to control the scene, if Wilton himself was here just now, he believes that in less than ten minutes, he can kill all the rebels who dare to challenge Aldington's authority.
"General Wilton, save me~ Save me!" Wazashi, who was awakened by Wilton's two slaps, didn't have time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly asked Wilton for help.
Wilton said with a look of disdain, "Breath." Tell me which detachment is causing the problem, or how many detachments?"
Wilton knew that Vazashi would be able to learn more about the scene now, after all, it was he who rang the bell, and Wilton swore that as long as he found out who betrayed the country at this time, he would exile them all out of Sinclair County and make them a feast for the orcs.
"General, orcs, heavenly, many!" Vazashi said intermittently, his eyes full of fear.
As for Wazashi's words, Wilton can be said to be ambiguous, because there are no orcs here at all, and how many orcs must be there to destroy his thousand, and a thousand people can't take each other's lives, Wilton doesn't believe it.
Suddenly, Wilton's whole body tightened, and he suddenly remembered the battle at the age of twenty, and when he looked up, he realized what had happened to Sinclair County.
He was all too familiar with the Caracalla eagle hovering in the sky, he was young and vigorous, and he wanted to rush into the hinterland of the orcs and solve the great trouble of this human being, and he triumphed all the way, and also fought a hundred miles away, but he encountered something that he did not want to recall.
Unexpectedly, there are so many air forces of the orcs, and the 10,000-strong vanguard cavalry led by Wilton was slaughtered in less than a day, and he was lucky to save his life, and he never dared to mention the idea of completely exterminating the orcs after that, which is why Wilton vetoed Vic.
Facing the more than 1,000 Caracalla eagles hovering in the sky looking for an opportunity to throw stones, Wilton, as the four major generals of the empire, was also helpless, and the power of the bow and arrow could be said to be useless for the Caracalla eagle at a height of 100 meters, and the only chance to kill the Caracalla eagle was when they flew down and grabbed the stone or attacked like a sharp claw.
But who would tempt the Caracalla eagle to drop the stone that was already on its talons, this is a question, just look at the corpses on the wall, and it will be like this when you go up the wall.
But there are some things that someone has to do, and under absolute authority, Wilton arranged for ten squads to lure the Caracalla eagle, including the team led by Victor, which was destined to end badly, while the rest hid in any place where they could, waiting for the Caracalla eagle to fly down, and then shoot arrows or spears in their hands.
