Chapter 39: Orders

The battle ended in just a few minutes. The orc squad, which had loosened its formation after encountering extremely vicious bows and arrows and javelin blows, was immediately crushed by the onslaught of the Roman cavalry. Although a few outlaw-like orc warriors resisted, it did not change the outcome of their defeat. Even the most valiant warriors will hardly muster the courage to fight their enemies once they have met a certain deathβ€”and this applies to orcs.

The victorious warriors immediately began to clean up the battlefield in high spirits, and although these orcs did not have much oil and water on them, there were also a few wealthier fellows who used well-forged orc straight-edged swords - steel was still very cheap in those days.

"Collect your javelins, bury the corpses, and leave the orcs alone, we'll all get rich after this battle! ”

Aaron led his horse and commanded the cavalry to clean up the battlefield, his eyes swept back and forth as far as he could see: "Move quickly, the enemy is likely to come soon." ”

"You were going to let that guy go? Don't tell me you didn't mean to! Commander. ”

"Huh, you mean the one-eyed dragon?" Before Aaron could wipe the blood and sweat from his head, he heard the inquiring voice of Sibea, who was following him, and turned his head to see the complaining face of the female ranger.

"Oh, it was indeed deliberately let go, because it was a mission need. Aaron licked his chapped lips, put his sword back into its sheath, and enthusiastically explained, "Because we are dealing with enemy scouts, and their mission is to report to the army, I believe you understand this?"

"You don't need to explain this to me. Sibea said coldly, "What I want is a reasonable explanation." ”

"If we wipe them all out, the enemy will enter the battlefield without knowing it, and for the most part it could be better, but not now. Aaron tilted his head and curled the corners of his mouth: "We need to let them know that there is a powerful human cavalry force waiting for them in front, and this army is so large that it can even send extra cavalry to sweep away its scouts and vanguards. ”

"Then they will understand that they must gather more soldiers and take back the other scouts, for sending such a small force of scouts will only be sent to their deaths, and then they will line up very densely to guard against us, so that they can be prepared for a cavalry assault in time. ”

"Of course, our enemy is a guy who knows how to use the army, so we have to be on guard as well. Aaron touched his nose and was proud of his explanation: "It's not going to have just one scout force, we have to get ahead of the curve!"

"So, Ranger Commander Sibea, I'm going to give you a very important mission now!" Aaron suddenly straightened his face and looked at the female ranger seriously, his tone heavy.

"Listen to orders at any time!" This serious attitude made the female ranger, who had always been a little casual, become solemn.

"I want you to immediately inform Marshal Terenus who is in the rear line that they are on guard and watch out for the enemy's scouts, as well as Commander Handel and Salald who are ambushing on the flanks of the army, we will try to disperse and annihilate the enemy's scouts, but please also pay attention!" Aaron said in a deep voice, "I will send two cavalry to protect you, you must reach your destination as quickly as possible!"

"What? you want me to go?!" Sibea said with some consternation, and then gritted her teeth and glared at Aaron: "I don't accept this order, I am the commander of the rangers, and this kind of task can be completed by other cavalry!"

"This is an order! no arguments allowed!" Aaron said so seriously for the first time, "Are you going to go against what you said?

"I won't say it a second time. Aaron turned around and left without looking back: "Janas, transfer two cavalry to follow Commander Sibea!"

"Understood!" Janus, who was busy carrying the corpse, whistled sharply and waved his hand at the two horsemen, who immediately understood and rode over on their horses.

Feeling the eyes staring at her, Sibea stomped her feet in resentment, deftly turned over her horse, pulled the reins of her horse, and ran towards the camp of the great army, where the two Roman horsemen immediately followed.

"War, please let the woman go away, that's the man's mission~. Aaron sang with emotion: "Beloved, keep watch at home, and wait for my triumphant return~." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Welcome back, Samir, welcome back, we've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Kosai, who was sitting in the tent of animal skins, with a voice full of strange enthusiasm, said to Samir, who was on his knees in front of him, scarred and breathless, "But I wonder where are your brave warriors? Are they too shy to come back?"

Samir's whole body trembled like chaff, beads of sweat the size of beans rained down, he didn't even dare to breathe with his head down, but his shoulders kept shaking, and he held his straight-edged war knife in both hands respectfully, and knelt on his knees.

"Oh, I guess they're probably not coming back, are they?" said Corsay, in a tone of voice, "Then you're going to come back?" Do you think I'll ever forgive you?

"I'm sure you know what happened to you, so I won't say more. Kosai jerked himself from his seat and strode out of the hides, leaving only Samir, still trembling and sifting chaff.

Inside the big tent, there was only the crackling sound of the campfire and the sound of sweat beads falling. Samir's eyes widened, he put the blade on his neck, gritted his teeth, and slashed hard with both hands that clenched the hilt!

"Poof――――――" The sound of blood spraying, with the sound of a leaky cowhide drum breaking the wind.

Samir's eyes widened, and he fell straight to the ground, dark red blood sprayed from his throat like a sprinkler, his body twitched back and forth involuntarily, and his limbs trembled back and forth, as if he wanted to speak, but there was only a leaking sound, mixed with scarlet blood foam squeezed out of the corners of his mouth.

Soon, the hot blood gradually became cold, the weakened heart stopped beating, and the original orc warrior was left with a cold corpse and red all over the tent.

........................................................................

"Hurry up your march, and the damned goblins already know where we're going, no matter what weishenme!" Kosai brandished his battle axe and commanded the orc guards behind him, "I'm going to chop them into minced pieces before evening!"

"Recall all the clans that were sent out! Although Samir is a complete idiot, but at least this one is telling the truth, those arrogant humans are not waiting for the great orc army in their own stone piles, and dare to send an army to unite these sick ghosts?!

"Do as you wish, great Kosai Khan!" the orc guards immediately took the order and hurried away.

Despite his confidence in his Taal tribe, Kosai remains vigilant. After all, this forest of silence is still the home of the Noldor elves, and any rash action will cause unnecessary casualties.

That's why it sent a considerable number of scout troops, these scouts are some new joiners, or small clans with low status, use their lives to exchange intelligence for the army, and can also reduce the number of people who share the spoils, and the good ones will also be selected to join the main force, which is a good thing to kill three birds with one stone.

Although he has only fought two battles with the Noldor Elves so far, and both of them have won big victories, the Noldor Elf's almost unafraid of death, coupled with his tricky bow and arrow skills, still gives it a headache. Although the strength of the Tar tribe is second only to Ashina Khan, it is based on the fact that there are many small tribes with supporters, and if their strength declines, these guys will definitely not be so loyal.

Orcs have always spoken with their fists!

Kosai's only idea now is to finish the battle with all his might, completely hurt these difficult sick ghosts, and by the way, deter the human lords in the north, and digest the spoils that have been obtained, the strength of the Taer tribe will be rapidly improved in the short term, and when the time comes, that Ashina Khan will not be able to be so deaf to himself!

The drums of desolation resounded in the camp of the orc army, and the bloodthirsty orc warriors put on their skins, took their round shields and heavy spears, and followed behind their clan leaders and began to march north.

The gray-brown animal skin, coupled with the natural brown skin of the orcs, the entire orc army is a brown ocean, like locusts crossing the border, black and oppressive through the ruins of the forest, their target is the northern coalition army!

The roars, the thumping of weapons, and the sound of wild laughter were endless. Dressed in his own armor and carrying two double-edged battle axes on his back, Kosai almost used brute force to squeeze his way out of the sea of orcs, daxiao flapping every head he saw.

"Frostwolf Clan, Oniyue Clan, Unicorn Clan, Jackal Clan............" Kosai read aloud the names of each clan: "This land will be ours soon!

"Kosai Khan - !!! Khosai Khan - !!! Khosai Khan - !!!"

The noisy cheers, mixed with the sound of weapons clashing and beating, and the shouts of "whoa-" poured out of the nest excitedly!

This dark cloud of destruction is heading north!
