Chapter 525: Star Lake Armageddon
,
Everyone looked at the back of the High Priest Tank Svador and wanted to say something, but opened his mouth and snorted a few times, but finally closed it again in confusion.
As a defeated person, as a representative of the orcs, he submitted to the empire and signed a surrender treaty with his own hands, which means that the orc race is no longer a free race from now on, but can only be a vassal of the empire.
This is a huge pressure that not just one person can bear.
No matter what he will say in the future, how he will be stoic, how he will take care of the overall situation, how he will sacrifice and sacrifice, but he will always be a sinner in the clan, and he is ashamed of the great ancestors of the orcs who bravely pioneered and fought bravely on this land.
Self-exile, which may be the best outcome.
Perhaps this is the only way to appease the boundless anger of the orc ancestors underground.
Therefore, they could only watch as the figure of the greatest wise man in the clan faded away.
For a moment, everyone fell to their knees in silence to see off the great wise man, the high priest who bravely bore all the responsibilities.
Tank Svador walked slowly, but in a few moments, it was already disappearing into the distance.
The orcs slowly rose from the ground.
They looked into the distance, but their hearts were full of pity.
Now that the Great Sacrifice has gone, and we have lost this guiding light and great teacher in our lives, how can we continue on the road ahead?
At this time, I saw iron hooves roaring like thunder in the distance.
A squad of Imperial cavalry swaggered outside the camp.
Although they all wore armor and armor, their swords were sheathed, their spears hung horizontally, and they had no weapons in their hands at all, and their attitudes were extremely arrogant.
When they arrived at the camp gate, a group of orc soldiers reflexively shouted, and they were about to pounce on them with their weapons.
But the Imperial cavalry who saw it waved the battle flag in their hands and shouted: "Bastards, you have all surrendered!
The orc soldiers were stunned for a moment.
The cavalryman angrily continued to shout: "Lay down your arms, otherwise it will be regarded as a rebellion, and you will be killed!"
The soldier next to him also shouted angrily on his horse: "Disobeying the orders of the empire, this is a crime against the Nine Clans." Even your patriarch will be implicated and have his head cut off!"
Hearing this, the orc officer in charge immediately panicked.
Although he also thought about it, these soldiers, in anger, killed a few of those imperial knights to vent their hatred.
But now, after all, it has officially surrendered. If that kind of thing is really done, the empire will definitely be a big thunderbolt, and if it is investigated, it is nothing to kill a few soldiers, but if it involves the head of the family, the gang of dogs of the human race will definitely be merciless, and drag him out to cut off his head......
Then the patriarch must have cut off his own head before he died. Maybe in order to pull a few more backs, he will kill all his old and young.
The officer immediately rushed out as if his buttocks were on fire, raised his hands in the air, and shouted desperately: "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong. Don't do it, don't do it......"
As he spoke, he had already run forward.
He first punched and kicked the soldiers, and then turned around, nodded and said to the Terran cavalryman: "My lord, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Don't be surprised. These puppies are too old to be sensible. Don't be like them. Haha, hahaha......"
The knight looked at the half-orc officer in front of him who nodded and bowed, his eyes seemed to be smiling, and then he raised his hand and whipped it hard, and scolded loudly: "Dog, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking about this bitch! ”
As he spoke, another whip was struck.
The half-orc officer didn't dare to move, and took the two whips stiffly, still with a smile on his face, and said, "Yes, yes, yes......"
When the cavalryman saw this, a hint of wonder flashed in his eyes. I took two lashes, but I was still smiling, and if nothing else, this physique alone was already quite good.
He immediately raised his leg and kicked the half-orc officer again.
The heavy military boots kicked heavily on the **, and the officer snorted in pain at the moment, his body flashed, but he stood firm again, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but then he passed away.
Although the orcs have never dealt with humans, they have been mixed up in the orc society for a long time, and they have become extremely slippery.
He knew very well that the honorable chiefs were not something he could offend as a gatekeeper. Otherwise, there is only a dead end.
When the cavalryman saw this, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Good son, you're in good health." If you want to eat food and become a soldier, come back to me. Lao Tzu gives you an officer to do. Remember to report my name, the commander of the 1st Cavalry Regiment of the Imperial Naian Army, Volka. ”
The sound was not high, but it exploded in the ears of the crowd like thunder, and their ears buzzed, and their legs were so weak that they almost wanted to sit down.
"Black Devil!"
The famous steppe demon.
The executioner who killed countless women, children and children.
The man proudly called it 'My best pup!'
The half-orc officer was also pale with fright, and he didn't dare to speak out for a while.
At this time, he saw the cavalry smile playfully, and then said: "Batru, the captain of the 1st Cavalry Brigade under General Vokar. ”
“......”
The cavalry next to them burst into laughter, and it seemed that it was not the first time they had scared orcs like this.
The cavalryman sneered and looked at the half-orc officer, and said, "What do you guys think?
Hearing his words, the half-orc officer breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he still didn't dare to be careless in the face of the black demons who terrified everyone on the grassland. Just nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, yes......"
The cavalryman looked at the false smile on his face, and felt very bored at the moment.
However, Batlu had followed Vokar across the grasslands, and he knew why these people had become like this, so he was not in a hurry.
He pressed the long sword at his waist, and then said with a big grin, "Show me the way, I will go to meet your chiefs and chiefs." The heart has delayed the heavy dà military plane, sir, I cut you to eat. ”
The orc officer listened to this familiar reprimand, and nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, please come with me." ”
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked towards the middle of the camp.
The cavalry looked at each other, although they knew that this was a large camp of half-orcs, and if one of them was wrong, everyone would have to die without even scum, but these soldiers were not afraid at all.
They whistled, and then galloped into the camp with impunity.
The Imperial cavalry held the Flying Eagle Battle Banner aloft and looked to both sides as they went.
I saw tents on both sides of the road, one after the other.
The tents were all made of animal skins and looked very thick, but most of them were patched and looked a little tattered.
The orcs already knew the news of the defeat.
They saw the Imperial Eagle flag flying high and galloping towards them, and the women and children all hid in their tents at the moment, and some of them dared to look out through the cracks in the tents.
The men, though they had all their weapons thrown on the ground, stood still, watching the Imperial cavalry pass by, either in silence or with ill will.
But these knights of the empire walked in front of them with even more arrogance.
Sometimes when they see a crowd gathered in front of them, and a crowd of ill intentions is blocking the road, they neither reduce nor mention, and just gallop straight over, with a look of indifference.
Seeing their posture like this, those half-orcs also knew at the moment that these were also hooligans and ruffians who had been mixed for a long time, and they were extremely difficult to provoke, and they could not be frightened by such a childish method, so they all turned sideways at the moment.
Under the leadership of the half-orc officer, everyone walked along the avenue, and after a short time, they came to the big tent of the Chinese army.
The chiefs had already received the news, and they were all standing outside the tent, waiting for them to arrive.
Batroux was the first to come to the crowd.
He didn't dismount, looked at everyone condescendingly, then leaned back slightly, and asked proudly, "Are you all here?"
The chiefs looked at each other.
The Dural patriarch of the Bar-Lev tribe came out of the crowd at the moment.
Although his face was pale, he still managed to keep his composure, and said, "Yes, Your Excellency, we are all here. I wonder what the Empire intends to do with us?"
Batru looked at him in surprise and said, "Why are you? The Paklingen patriarch I remember is the most powerful, but what about the others?"
Hearing his words, the hearts of the half-orcs all sank at the moment: the Imperial people were so aware of their movements that even the faces of the patriarchs knew it clearly. Just one glance and you'll be recognizable.
Patriarch Dural suppressed the horror in his heart and said calmly: "Pakelingen wanted to lead his troops to defect, and he has been killed by us. I think the Turcuridor has now explained this to your Governor of Lorraine. ”
Batroux immediately shouted angrily: "What your governor of Lorraine! Since you have surrendered, then his old man is also your governor!"
Remember, when you mention him in the future, you must say our governor, understand?"
Dural's face was blue with anger, and his fingers pinching his crutches were white, but in the end he answered in a low voice and said, "Yes." ”
Batru nodded in satisfaction.
He reached out and pulled a scroll of paper from his bosom and whispered, "Paklingen is dead...... It's a nuisance, but it doesn't matter......"
As he spoke, he took out his black charcoal pen and sketched it on the paper a few times, then picked it up again and looked at it.
Batru cleared his throat and said, "Patriarchs, since you have surrendered, I don't need to say what to do next, you also understand. ”
Dural looked back at the crowd and saw that they were all dead, but they had no objections, and nodded immediately, "Yes, we understand." Since the Lord has guaranteed the safety of our family, please let us explain the future......"
Batru grinned and interrupted them, "What are you talking about! How could you do such a thing?"
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
Immediately afterwards, he listened to Batru continue: "The lord said, please come to his tent tonight. I'll get everyone back tomorrow. However, you must bring your most beloved sons and daughters with you. Join us at a dinner party. Got it?"
Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know why.
Batru said: "This is also for everyone's sake, knowing that many of you are illiterate, so he is deliberately affected by the old man and wants to give your children compulsory education."
It won't take long, at most thirty or fifty years, and after the guarantee comes out, all of them will be high-achieving students of Fu University.
Although why this egg is torn, it is not ripped off. I don't know very well, but what the old man said, there must be no mistake.
When the time comes, after your children have graduated from school, even if they are not the patriarch and become a screaming beast, it can be said to be a howling beast. Salary and bonuses or something, it's also uproaring.
If you're lucky, maybe you can sneak a girl or something, ** very.
In a word, it is very yellow and violent. ”
Speaking of which, Batru's face was yearning, and his saliva almost flowed out, and he hurriedly wiped it twice with his hand.
The patriarchs looked at each other below.
They are all old people, no matter how beautiful Barut says, they also know that this is actually a hostage!
And once his son went to be a hostage, he was brainwashed by that lord...... Well, no, after twenty or thirty years of education, even a demon has been whitewashed and turned into a saint.
At that time, the son, with the help of the empire, returned to become the patriarch, and his tribe naturally moved towards the empire. Even if you want to rebel again, you can't run away.
This ploy is vicious!
But that's not all.
Barut continued: "In addition to this, you must also be prepared, now you are also subjects of the Empire, so it is your duty to defend the territory and the frontier of the Empire.
Each patriarch had to pick up three hundred soldiers, and then garrison them separately with our army. But don't worry, what is the salary of the grain and grass, there will definitely be no less. Do you understand?"
The patriarchs couldn't help but be frightened again: bring the soldiers and stationed them in various places. This is a way to avoid making moves in the rear.
Second, if something happens in the future and they need to send troops, they will rush to the front line by themselves and be cannon fodder. Even if he doesn't die, when the time comes, his hands are stained with the blood of his compatriots, this can be regarded as a surrender, and he is an out-and-out beast.
In the end, he could only follow the empire with all his heart.
There was no shortage of wise men who knew that after surrendering, Lorraine would definitely divide and disintegrate. But I didn't expect this to come so quickly!
As soon as this side surrendered, various orders had already been issued there. It's too late to react.
At the same time, they were also secretly shocked that person was so powerful. Long before the start of the war, he was prepared, which shows how thoughtful he is and how confident he is in this war.
Batru ignored them and said in a loud voice: "Now I will start the roll call, and if you get the names, go back and prepare quickly." If you call your name, but don't agree. That's the removal of the clan. Got it?"
Expel?
That's the death of the light.
The patriarchs were all nervous at the moment. I was afraid that when I was called by my name, I missed it.
Batru unfolded the scroll of paper and read aloud, "Patriarch Dural!"
Dural hurriedly stepped forward and agreed.
Batru glanced at him, then made a mark on the paper, then waved him down, and continued, "Chief Balindona." ”
Balindona also hurriedly stepped forward and agreed.
Batru ticked his name and continued, "Patriarch Macadoka." ”
Another person also hurried forward......
This half-orc camp is huge. It is formed by the convergence of various tribes, so there are many patriarchs.
Rao is Batru has full lung capacity, but he also studied for most of the day.
After he finished reading, he shouted again: "When the sun sets, if you don't arrive, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and the empire will attack again." At that time, all the chickens and dogs will be killed!"
After speaking, he nodded slightly to everyone, didn't talk nonsense, turned around, turned the horse's head with the soldiers behind him, and galloped out quickly.
xxxxxxx
At this time, it was almost dusk.
This bloody day is finally over.
Countless torches were lit on the earth. From afar, it looks like the stars in the Milky Way have fallen into the world.
Those torches were dotted and gathered, like a vast river and ocean.
Against the backdrop of those lights, the sky still showed a bright color despite the arrival of night.
The crimson color reflected half of the sky from afar, as if the sky was burning.
Compared with the loneliness and quietness of the orc camp, the human camp was full of joy. They have reason to rejoice.
With tens of thousands of people, against half a million strong orc warriors, and they won. And it was won at the cost of zero casualties.
The victory of this war, no matter what the era, is enough to go down in history forever.
And they who participated in this war also have enough proud capital, even if they are old, they can sit in front of the fireplace and proudly say to their grandchildren: I once participated in that great war, and under the leadership of the god of war, I have witnessed with my own eyes, that miraculous victory!
Every time they mentioned the name of Lord Lorraine, they couldn't help but cheer enthusiastically.
The crowd gathered around the campfire, singing, dancing, and laughing.
But since the orc camp was nearby, the alarm was not lifted. Therefore, although they are lively, they do not dare to drink for fear of making a mistake.
But fortunately, these soldiers have already obtained the promise of the officers, and when they return to the holiday, they can drink to their heart's content.
As for the big tent of the Chinese army, in order to appease people's hearts, Lorraine gathered the half-orc patriarchs and their children who had recently surrendered in the big tent, and then sent the orcs with Doretta to show up to explain the many benefits of following Lord Luo.
What teeth are not sore, my head is not clear, and I climbed the fifth floor in one breath......
Doretta was talking about spitting.
The patriarchs who escaped from death were rejoicing to themselves, and suddenly heard that there were still these good things, and they were also quite moved at the moment, and their eyebrows danced when they listened.
On the other hand, although Lord Lorraine won the war, he still had a lot of hands to deal with.
In the big tent of the military plane, a group of staff officers were busy and couldn't get around.
But Lord Luo was entertaining all the generals today in his camp and holding a celebration.
This is also the prerogative of the generals. It's just to do what soldiers and junior officers are not allowed to do, otherwise why would everyone have to climb up desperately, isn't it just to enjoy the pleasure of this privilege?
Just as everyone was reveling, suddenly the door of the tent opened.
Escorted by a group of soldiers, a young orc priest walked in.
When everyone saw it, they were stunned.
By this time, the soldiers had taken the man into the tent, and then two soldiers held the man down and threw him to his knees.
Nearby, someone stepped forward and whispered a few words in Lorraine's ear.
Lorraine was holding a wine glass, clinking wine glasses with his generals, and then drinking the adulterated brown sugar water inside, listening to the man's report, his eyes flashed coldly.
He sat up straight, then looked at the man with interest, and said softly, "I heard that you have a message from the High Priest of Tank Svador that you want to tell me?"
The young priest raised his head, glanced at Lorraine secretly, and then hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully, "May I ask my lord, are you Lord Lorraine?"
Lorraine was even more interested at the moment, and dared to ask so at this time, which shows that this guy is very responsible and has the potential to be a courier.
He nodded and said, "Yes." I am. But where has your high sacrifice gone?"
The young priest's face darkened, and he said, "He has exiled himself. Walked into the depths of the savannah. ”
Lorraine suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. He knew the appeal of the orc sacrifice. Originally, I was planning to put him under house arrest if that guy was unwilling to leave because he was bullying his ass, and he couldn't find an opportunity. Or they were killed by suicide.
But I didn't expect that guy to be so knowledgeable and slip away by himself.
But he didn't show it on the surface, sighed, and said, "Alas, it's a pity. I'd love to meet your high priest. By the way, what's his message?"
The priest hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said stubbornly, "It's not a message, it's a curse!"
"What, curse ??!" the generals were stunned at first, and then all furious.
