Chapter 146: Richard's Persistence
Copper City.
The gloomy sky suddenly began to rain heavily, constantly washing the blood stains at the city gates, and Richard looked at the human who had been pierced by dozens of spears, but still stood there.
Just then, a furious roar from behind Dordor rang out.
"Break him to pieces!"
At this time, Duoduo was obviously about to be mad, in this battle, the casualties of its orc army were beyond its expectations, and it was difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart if he didn't break the human body in front of him into thousands of pieces!
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Richard, who was standing in front, raised his hand and stopped the werewolf warriors who were about to carry out its orders.
"Richard!" Duoduo, who was in a bad mood, had a clear displeasure in his tone.
"He's dead, Grand Chief." Richard replied calmly.
"So what?!" Duoduo, who was almost dizzy, asked without hesitation.
"It's against the traditions of the orcs to do this!" As he spoke, Richard glanced at the other orcs.
Sensing Richard's gaze, the expressions of the werewolf warriors who were about to make a move flashed with a hint of obvious unnaturalness, but on the contrary, there were also many powerful orc warriors in the team who showed expressions of approval.
Although the orcs have their own traditions, among the powerful orcs, there is one common tradition and pride, that is, respect for the strong.
Undoubtedly, in the eyes of many orc clans, Qin Yi is the real powerhouse.
However, after the death of this powerful man, the Great Chief still had to humiliate his corpse and break it into thousands of pieces, which he was extremely unwilling to see.
"What if I have to break him to pieces!"
As soon as he said this, Duoduo himself regretted it, although in the eyes of a modern person, the tradition and glory of the orc race are bullshit! But it is undeniable that among the orcs, many powerful orcs follow this tradition, and the first of them is the first fierce general of the wolf clan under his command, Richard.
There was a stalemate for a while, and during this whole process, Richard didn't say a word, but he didn't retreat from it, and Duoduo, who felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger, had a gloomy face, but he was helpless.
In the end, he simply turned his head and walked towards the city, and said in an irritable tone as he walked: "Give me to clean up the battlefield and collect the loot!" ”
At this moment, the orc troops that had originally gathered in one place were very obviously divided into two, one part followed Duoduo directly, and the other part, like Richard, stood in place.
And the part that remained in place was all werewolves like Richard.
Looking at Duoduo who made concessions in disguise, the werewolf warriors who stood in place breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, although they supported Richard in their position, but Duoduo was the big chief of their orc clan after all, and it was the big chief of an entire orc clan, no one could deny Duoduo's contribution to a whole wolf clan, they really didn't want to see Richard and Duoduo fall out.
"Chief, what should we do with these human corpses, have you dug a pit and buried them?" One of the werewolf warriors asked at Richard.
Hearing this, Richard shook his head and replied, "Although they are human, they deserve respect and deserve a decent funeral, but the Great Chief will not allow me to do so. Let's find a place to keep them first, and then I'll find an opportunity to send these corpses outside the human city. ”
At this time, Dordor, anyone can see how bad its mood is at the moment, and it kicks the door of a house on the side of the road with nowhere to vent its anger.
The whole door was kicked open by it in an instant, during which it didn't feel half a trace of resistance, not because it had a lot of strength, but because the door was not locked at all, and Duoduo, who vaguely felt that something was not quite right, subconsciously walked in and took a look twice, only to find that the whole room was empty, not even a figure!
"Something is wrong......"
The Great Logarithmic Orcs have a very keen sense of hearing and smell, however, from the beginning of the day, the entire city seemed so quiet that it was as if there was no one else but them.
As this thought arose, Duoduo's face changed slightly, as if he had thought of something, and then he hurriedly rushed out of the room and pushed open the door next door.
"Empty, empty! It's still empty!! ”
Duoduo's face became more and more ugly as it broke into several rooms in a row, it had vaguely sensed a fact, but it didn't want to face it at all, what were you kidding? The city it had taken a lot of effort to capture turned out to be an empty city!
For Duoduo, humans are an important resource, because the technology and productivity of the orc civilization are very low, so when you want to get something, you either grab it directly from the humans, or grab it back with the humans! Let those human slaves help them produce.
However, it is probably the reason why the living environment of the orc country is too bad for humans, and every time it captures a human, it will not live for a few years before it dies completely.
It tried to solve this problem, but in the end it found that it couldn't be solved, there was no way, so it could only keep catching humans to serve them, so the weapons and equipment made by humans and humans became an important resource that his orc civilization must grab every time it invades.
Under this premise, at this time, in the face of such an empty city, Duoduo's mentality exploded directly!
Needless to say, the whole city ran out, how could the armory and granary still be full? The only thing to be thankful for is that the equipment that was taken directly from those dead people is still usable.
However, the werewolf warrior under its command didn't seem to want it to rejoice for too long, and a werewolf warrior who ran over quickly did not hesitate to remind it of another reality that made its mind explode.
That is, in the previous battle, a sudden series of explosions on the city wall directly blew up the red fox archers under its command and the four bed crossbows on the wall......
At this moment, it can be said that Duoduo's whole mentality has completely stopped, and it is really the first time that he has suffered such a big loss in the night raid battle!
At the same time, in the face of such damage, especially the total annihilation of the Red Fox Archers, it had to adjust for a few days to appease the morale of the army.
At the same time, on the other side, on the side of Daxia City, the army led by Xia Qi personally officially set off in this pouring rain, and finally arrived in Xicheng in the early morning two days later after a rapid march overnight.
By the way, the Xuanjia Army led by Luo Yong arrived half a day earlier than him, and Liu Meng and Guo Zhen, who received his follow-up urgent report on the other side, also temporarily changed their march route and arrived in Xicheng successively with a rapid march.
As soon as the army entered the city, Li Qing, who had been waiting in the city for a long time, decisively knelt down after seeing Xia Qi, "The last general Li Qing sees Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to surrender your guilt-"
As he spoke, Li Qing's head had already hit the ground heavily, and the muffled sound made when his forehead hit the ground made Xia Qi's heart tighten.
Then looking at Li Qing who put his forehead on the ground, Xia Qi couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then slowly spoke: "Li Qing, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, you don't need to ......"
He was only halfway through the words, but unexpectedly, Li Qing suddenly raised his head, and the moment the two looked at each other, Xia Qi only felt that in Li Qing's dark eyes, there seemed to be two fires burning, which was definitely not the eyes that a decadent person would have!
"Your Majesty, the last general is here to ask for guilt, not because he is obsessed with the defeat of the copper city, but because he wants to ask His Majesty to give the last general another chance, so that the last general can slash those monsters and avenge the dead soldiers! After that, what does Your Majesty want to do with the last general, even if he apologizes for his crime with death, the last general will never complain! ”
Li Qing's determination was beyond Xia Qi's expectations, without any trace of decadence, and he completely transformed the unwillingness and pain in his heart into a raging rage.
This situation undoubtedly made Xia Qi breathe a sigh of relief, and it turned into anger and hatred, which is better than turning the horns or being decadent, thinking of this, Xia Qi nodded and said, "Li Qing, I am very pleased that you can think like this." ”
However, just as he was saying this, in Xicheng, a soldier rushed over on a fast horse in a hurry, startling the team of guards beside Xia Qi who was about to draw their swords.
The soldiers under his own hands made such a fuss, as the general of the city defense of Xicheng, Wang Ling was undoubtedly panicked in his heart, and then shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! Your Majesty is here, don't hurry up and get off your horse! ”
Under Wang Ling's angry shout, the soldier on the horse obviously also noticed Xia Qi's existence, and he panicked, and the whole person fell directly from the horse.
After that, he didn't care about crying out for pain, so he quickly knelt on the ground.
"Little damn it, I didn't know that Your Majesty was here, please forgive Your Majesty!"
"It doesn't matter."
Looking at the soldier who was sincerely afraid, Xia Qi waved his hand and said, "Say, what happened to make you so flustered?" ”
"It's outside the city, and there's a monster army outside the city!"
The moment he heard this, whether it was Xia Qi who was standing there or Li Qing who was kneeling on the ground, their eyes were fixed, and then after subconsciously exchanging a look, Xia Qi quickly said, "Let's go, go and see!" ”
Just like that, with a few generals and riding fast horses, he rushed all the way from the west gate of Xicheng to the east gate, and then Xia Qi, who climbed the top of the wall, clearly saw a small army approaching in the distance.
He quickly raised the telescope in his hand to confirm it, and after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, Xia Qi's pupils suddenly shrank, and he subconsciously said: "Werewolf?!" ”
Xia Qi's tone carried a hint of uncertainty in his tone, although he has seen a lot of creatures like werewolves in games and film and television works, it is the first time he has seen it in reality.
And Li Qing on the side was even more excited than him, "It's it!" ”
"Who?"
"The biggest monster should be the general of that monster army."
Hearing this, Xia Qi subconsciously confirmed it through the binoculars, and then there was a hint of strangeness on his face.
"But the number of soldiers in this army is only a dozen or twenty, are they so small?"
"It's not." Li Qing shook his head, "Monsters like this, the last general remembers that there are at least five hundred. ”
"There seem to be three wooden carts dragging behind, in short, let's see what tricks the other party wants to play first."
