Chapter Forty-Six: Do What You Like
Old Man Ao and Sect Leader Pi just gave some reference opinions, and did not interfere with Commander Cao to make any decisions, and the entire battle plan was completed independently by Commander Cao under their noses.
Needless to say, it is obvious that the two of them are also watching with a wait-and-see mind, to see how many catties and taels Captain Cao has. In the end, it was concluded that Captain Cao was a very bold and cautious guy at the same time. This seems to be a bit of a contradictory character, but in battle, these two personalities can coexist, and the key is whether you can grasp the balance point in the middle. As far as they could see so far, Captain Cao had a very good grasp of it.
Originally, Sect Leader Pi still questioned what kind of sea of people Commander Cao's so-called crowd tactics were, after all, Commander Cao only had 300 soldiers of the Raiding Regiment in his hands, and if he was full of calculations, he would kill less than 2,000 people even if he was connected to the Free Development Alliance. These two thousand people are still counted as a result of all the old and weak women and children. The other party's nearly 200 hyenas plus more than 100 spotted hyenas are also a lot of force, and it is not so easy to scare these thugs.
But in the end, after knowing the overall arrangement of Captain Cao, Pi Jiaotou felt that this big back was really worthy of the treacherous big back. It's really too cunning! His kind of deceptive thinking has never been heard of, but he has to say that it is an extremely clever set of psychological tactics, and this big back is really a good hand who likes to play with people's psychology.
The most arranged plan by Regiment Commander Cao was an ambush battle plan to lure the enemy and encircle on all sides. The one who carried out the lure was the adult orc warrior led by Carl. Carl's face turned pale as soon as he heard the statement of being a bait, and after Chief Cao explained for a while, Carl was relieved again. Captain Cao just wanted them to show weakness to the enemy, not the kind of fishing that Carl imagined meant sacrificing bait, as long as they completed the strategic plan, they could smear oil on the soles of their feet at any time.
Carl slammed his chest loudly, saying that he was more than capable of such a simple plan to lure the enemy. And solemnly promise that he can finish beautifully. Captain Cao was in a good mood and rewarded Carl with some cigarettes and alcohol, and asked him to bring it back to the orc warriors who performed the bait operation as a reward and condolences. In order not to let them drink too much and delay the battle plan, the drinks were a little stingy, but Karl had already thought of a way to mix the water, so that the orcs of the entire tribe could taste it.
Just took a sip of the fragrant wine, and two lines of tears slipped silently from his eyes, and Carl's unproductive expression provoked a burst of knowing laughter from the raiders of the raiding group.
After returning to the tribe, Karl quickly assigned a series of tasks as a chief, and the next day the second hyena brother came to watch again. This is one of the characteristics of hyena bandits, and they are also similar to the group of spotted hyenas in terms of robbery. In the early stage, there will be more and more people at a time, until you feel absolutely sure, and then you will rush up.
On this day, in Karl's observation, the adult bandits of the entire tribe of Kassel should have been present. When looking up the high slope, Karl had even spotted Kassel's iconic pomp, a polished bronze armor that was so smooth that it didn't know how much fine sand it had rubbed to bloom so smooth.
Even after a long distance, Carl still looked disdainful. Despise Cassel's ugly face. Although the eyes of the orcs are not so good, this does not hinder Karl's imagination, as long as he has met with Cassel, he will never forget that face in his life. He's so ugly! Even the orcs who have the lowest average appearance in the Pan-American continent will turn into a handsome and beautiful woman when they see him. From the bottom of my heart, I think I should go to the beauty pageant, and then I will undoubtedly sit on the laurels. The most suitable profession for Kassel is to be used as a target for playing roulette blindfolded knives.
With a wave of his hand, Carl took about thirty orc boys with his legs and feet, who had always been relatively neat, and set out on the road. Behind each of them was a large, heavy-looking cart in tow. But his feet are as fast as meteors, and the orcs are also good laborers. For the first time, they worked for Boss Cao as good citizens of the alliance, and they were also quite hardworking.
More than 30 carts went down the high slope. He went straight in the direction of the mud snail and dragged out a cloud of dust as if he was fleeing. It was a general direction, and no one knew exactly where they were going in this great wasteland.
Kassel, whose eyes bulged out widely, immediately noticed the small number of refugees, and hurriedly put up a hand and looked at it in the eye socket. Unlike orcs, hyenas have very good eyesight, and whether they are in the middle of the day or night, they come and go freely in this wasteland, leaving no dead ends.
Surrounded by a group of hyena people, Kassel does have the feeling of standing out from the crowd. Although the hyena people around him looked two, they all had a more or less fierce smell. Kassel was able to become the chief of the tribe, and there was nothing to say about his strength and fierceness, but under his ugliness, all other qiē would only be diluted.
Compared to the hyena people around him, Kassel appears slightly cleaner. Hyena people don't like water, so they hardly bathe except when it rains, and they give people a smelly feeling for many years, and the same image is true for the spotted hyenas they raise. The reputation stinks, and the body odor stinks. Only hyenas with special racial abilities and no fear of germs would be so raunchy. In the case of other natives, as soon as you get close to them, you feel like you are close to the birthplace of the plague.
Kassel's hardware conditions were not good, so he had to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and became the only person in the tribe who had a bath every three or five times. His skin is different from the yellow of the clansmen, because he has been brushed hard with a coarse brush for a long time, and it is earthy yellow. While the other hyenas have a messy yellow hair that seems to be undernourished and hayy, Kassel's hair is very soft and confident.
In the realm of exile, there is a saying that "if your hair is tilted to one side, you must mix well". Cassel is very obsessed with his long flowing hair, and every time he is excited, he will stroke it in the direction, the same attitude as Captain Cao towards the big back. Just grinning slightly, Kassel's appearance plummeted a few notches again. The crooked yellow teeth were more palatable than the teeth of an orc with the residue of wild vegetables.
The direction in which the orcs were galloping was a bit difficult to understand in Kassel's opinion, because if you continued in that direction, you would definitely reach the edge of the Niluo River. Orcs are more afraid of water than hyenas, and Cassel certainly doesn't think they want to go swimming and bathing. No matter which direction Carl and the others ran, it seemed impossible to escape the hyena people.
If you can cross the mud snail river, which is as fast as natural hazards, it is possible to escape. But such a group of orcs wanted to cross the Niluo River, even if it was the smoothest downstream of it. It's as incredible as a mouse jumping up and killing a cat. And who are there in that direction, Kassel also knows a little, except for a rabbit tribe with strong barriers, other natives scattered on both sides of the Niluo River, Kassel can't afford to provoke such a vote at all, let alone these more than thirty orcs.
"Boss, shall we catch up? Look at the thigh-thick dried meat on the cart they pulled!" a hyena man who probed his brain asked Cassel a little breathlessly.
He wasn't the only one, but many other hyenas noticed that the carts pulled by the orcs were tightly covered. Brave the old high. Outside, there are still a lot of air-dried meat tied into a string, which attracts the attention of hyena people. Sometimes, good eyes are not a good thing. For example, many of these hyena people, who had come over a long time ago and had not yet eaten, began to growl in their stomachs after this moment.
I'm not afraid that you have a pure heart and few desires, but I'm afraid that you have no hobbies. For Commander Cao's tactics of luring the enemy, this is the case. Not to mention the hyena tribe of Kassel. In this realm of exile, as long as there are carts of food, there is no bandit who is not interested. This is typical of what you like. Identify their weaknesses.
The orc tribe did have trailers that they had stolen from some small caravans before, and what they took from Captain Cao yesterday was only a large pile of dried meat, in addition to tobacco and alcohol, which was also a snack that Captain Cao gave them. The advice of the head of the Cao regiment is to let them keep all the tobacco and alcohol, and wait for the finished work to drink these dried meats, which will be more flavorful. These things can also come in handy in the battle to lure the enemy, at least it is enough to attract the attention of the hyena people.
With such a bait, the attention of those hyena second brothers will definitely be attracted to this side, and as for the lair of the half-orcs, it is estimated that they will not be so interested.
Carl faithfully implemented this idea, and Captain Cao asked him to disguise himself with these rewards, and Carl complied. It's a pity that there is not much food in the orc tribe, and there are many haystacks, so Carl can only use his imagination to cover these hay tightly to deceive people. If it was really food, such a large cart and cart, it would be impossible for the half-orcs to drag it and still walk like flying, unless it was the labor of the giant forest boar people.
If you think about it carefully, this orc tribe has been in short supply for a long time, or Chief Selby would not have driven away so many old and sick people. Carl's approach to accomplishing the task is almost a bit too much. Fortunately, those second brothers of hyenas are also some goods that do not seek much understanding, seeing those dried meat swaying in the car, one by one is already a little unbearable, and many second brothers' mouths are flowing with shiny saliva, and there is really a taste of fish hooked.
"Damn! How can these orcs have so much food? Even our harvest during this period is not good, how can they save so much wealth so quickly? Unreasonable!" A second brother is very dissatisfied, they wander in this wasteland all day long, but they have to work much harder than those half-orcs, and this period of spring is not long ago, it is indeed not the peak season for the robbery industry.
"Last time, a brother said that he saw that Selby's bastards were killed by those unknown guys, and I think these orcs are afraid of us, and want to move their belongings first, and then let their people move. Boss, what should I do?" the other second brother with a big brain and a thick neck was also gearing up.
"What are you doing in a daze? Chong Chong Chong! Let's kill them to Lao Tzu first! Don't talk about running away, even if they want to go on a tour of the mountains and rivers, they have to ask Lao Tzu if the guy in his hand agrees!"
A strange whistling seemed to be a signal, and a group of hyena brothers immediately began to chase in the direction of Carl and the others. (To be continued......)
