Chapter 219: Borrowing the Way!
Orcs are candles, and they don't light them!
When the orc messenger's head was cut off, thrown off the city wall like a leather ball, and rolled down the slope for a long distance, the orc really became much more sensible!
This time, the messenger they sent was much more interesting. After seeing the army on the city wall, he sighed.
"Fool! If I had so many men, I would have cut off his head!"
This sounds exceptionally comfortable, and more importantly, the person who speaks. He's an old acquaintance of Yifeng, Walter of the Wolf Clan. He was the first time Yifeng dealt with orcs. Reading between the lines, there was no anger at all at Yi Feng for slaying the orc messenger. Instead, he looked at the miscellaneous army curiously.
"Where did you get so many men? If I'm not mistaken, six months ago, Toulon was a sparsely populated city!"
Alkins didn't know Walter, and he was interested in the personable orc. Orcs are more fiery than they are, and they will live or die if they don't agree with each other, and there are too few very calm guys like Walter. Alkins replied proudly.
"If you had come ten days and a half earlier, we wouldn't have so many of us!"
Walter didn't understand what Alkins meant, but he was certain that Yifeng played a key role in it. So he cast his puzzled eyes on Yifeng, hoping to get an answer from him.
However, he was surprised to find that Yifeng's eyes were staring at his neck vigorously, as if he was studying that it would be better to cut it down. Suddenly, Walter felt his back flutter and asked angrily.
"Why are you staring at my neck? We're old friends! Could it be that you want to cut off my head too?"
Yes, that was Yifeng's first thought when he met Walter.
After a few months, Walter changed. He is no longer ostentatious, but introverted, and always has a smile on his face that you can't fathom. If Walter was a radiant weapon in the past, then now he is a sword hidden in the sword box, which is not easy to show, and once it is unsheathed, he cannot return without drinking blood.
Undoubtedly, such a Walter is even more terrifying. Yifeng really wants to get rid of this future henchman as soon as possible, but it's a pity that the orc army is ahead. Killing the first messenger can also be said to have offended the messenger himself, and he killed him in anger, but if he killed another one, the orcs would definitely go crazy.
Yifeng calculated the gains and losses, and had to laugh at himself.
"How dare you Walter come to me, aren't you afraid that I will keep you?"
Yifeng said this sentence, there is an allusion. It was in Ping'an City at that time, when Walter was a prisoner, when he was separated from Yifeng, Yifeng once had such a thought, but unfortunately Walter was very clever and fled directly.
And Maginot, who rushed to hear the news, was not as polite as Yifeng.
"Walter, do you still have the courage to come to me?
Maginot had a good reason to kill Walter. Many of his robes had died at Walter's hands.
Walter didn't panic at all, just indifferently pinched the long sword Maginot held around his neck and smiled.
"I came this time with sincerity and no malice. Is this how you treat your old friends? Or are you so scared that you don't even have the courage to listen to me?"
Walter is a qualified lobbyist. His words not only played the family card, but also faintly had the flavor of agitation. Because he knew that it was impossible for Yifeng to kill himself, at least at this time. War is one thing, but it is another thing to have a life-and-death feud.
Yifeng waved his hand, and Maginot took the sword back in hatred. Yifeng laughed.
"Walter, please explain your intentions, if you are here to recruit surrenders! I suggest you have a good chat with our Maginot General!"
Yifeng's sentence is also opposite to the needle, indicating his position. And Maginot also cooperated with the sword into the sheath.
"I'm looking forward to being able to entertain you personally!"
Walter didn't understand the threat in it, he said with a wry smile.
"I'm not that fool! Look at your current men, I know it's impossible! Well, I officially make a request on behalf of my king!"
Walter said in a positive way, and at the same time he took a hide from his bosom, but it was the edict of the Beastmaster.
"Our great King of the Prairies, I have heard that your King Edward died in a court upheaval. Our king is very angry, and a monarch like Lionheart can only die on the battlefield, and how can he die at the hands of a villain, so my king has raised 100,000 troops to seek justice! We don't want to be your enemy, so I'm here to borrow it!"
That's a beautiful thing to say. Who doesn't know that the orcs come here every year, but now they are surprisingly so kind?
When it comes to borrowing the Tao, Yifeng thinks of an allusion in the Spring and Autumn Period. And everyone was also disdainful.
Just kidding, you've got tens of thousands of troops here, just to borrow a way?
You're fooling the undead, aren't you?
If it's yourself, you'll also pick up the grass and hit a rabbit!
Walter took everyone's expressions into his eyes, and he was not surprised at all, but said more seriously.
"That's right! It's a way! With our king's edict as proof!"
Orcs value commitment and reputation. People have only heard of humans deceiving orcs and saying that it is a beautiful story, but they have never heard of orcs deceiving humans, let alone edicts written in black and white?
Could it be that this time the orcs are serious?
Everyone was also moved for a while, and began to talk to each other.
This reaction was not expected by Walter, who smiled slightly and added another weight.
"I also know that you are worried about being stigmatized. Well, I suggest, we can both join forces to put on a show. We orcs feigned defeat and let you pursue it. In this case, you also have a way of saying it. We promise that after entering the fortress, you will not move a single grass or tree, and quickly intersperse it!"
Walter put it bluntly. It means that Yifeng will first achieve a big victory, and then all of them will pursue, so that the fortress will be invisibly given up, and the orcs will take the opportunity to sneak attack and succeed. Under the big victory, no one can find fault.
However, Yifeng seemed to understand why the orcs must want to use their swords. In the eyes of the orcs, this is a hunt, and they have come to steal something, not to die. No one is willing to risk their lives to gnaw on the hard bones of the Toulon Fortress, and they can't make it! At this time, the orcs should not know about the ore veins, and judging from the barrenness of the Toulon Fortress, it is not worth killing a few hundred people.
It seems that this excuse is real!
Yifeng couldn't help but groan for a while. (To be continued.) )
