Chapter 758 Unexpected Guest(1/2)
I quickly read the information presented by Zhang Tang.
Luo Ji's eyebrows could be said to have knitted together in an instant.
There was obvious solemnity in his entire expression.
The orc forces in the west are stronger than he expected!
After signaling Zhang Tang to retreat first.
Luo Ji quickly called Guo Jia to discuss the matter.
After a serious discussion between the two of them.
Decided not to retreat this winter.
Directly let the Western Expedition troops be stationed on the front line for the winter.
This was done on the one hand to prevent the orc forces from the west from advancing towards the east.
On the other hand, it is to seize a frontline stronghold.
Lay the foundation for the Western Expedition after the beginning of the next spring.
After this matter is decided.
Luo Ji immediately began to assemble winter supplies for the Western Expeditionary Army.
According to the current strength of the civilization of all worlds.
It is not difficult to provide winter supplies for thousands of troops on the Western Expedition.
Not to mention that they will have a bumper harvest this fall.
Luo Ji's flying pigeon message was quickly delivered to Du Yuanzhi and others.
In the orc town, all the soldiers gathered together.
After Du Yuanzhi finished reciting the order from His Majesty the Emperor.
Not many people were surprised.
After all, it is according to Du Yuanzhi's wishes.
After capturing this orc town, they were mentally prepared to spend the winter here.
Therefore, at this moment, after confirming the order, what everyone is discussing is...
"Should we defend this small town now and prepare for the winter, or should we continue the attack?"
Along with this question being asked.
The eyes of all the soldiers fell on Du Yuanzhi at the same time.
In response to this, Du Yuanzhi, who was a staff officer with the army, slowly spoke after a while of pondering...
"Calculating the time, there are only a month or two left before winter begins. Let's seize another city before winter begins! In this way, we can advance and attack on the front line.
It’s time to retreat and defend.”
The Western Expedition army, which had just won a big victory before, could be said to be in high morale.
Therefore, the soldiers naturally had no objection to Du Yuanzhi's instructions to continue the attack.
Three hundred human soldiers and wounded were left guarding this orc town.
The rest of the troops quickly gathered with food and grass and moved towards the next orc city marked on the map.
At the same time, on the other side of the border of the civilization of the world, a group of surprising guests were welcomed...
Horse hooves formed in formation, and golden eagles flew through the sky.
Burigude led his cavalry troops and quickly surrounded the group of people who broke into their border.
It was a small team of only twenty or thirty riders.
No amount of numbers poses a threat to them.
Calling it an invasion is a far cry from the truth.
This is also the reason why Burigude did not take action directly.
Faced with the siege of cavalry troops.
Among this cavalry team, a middle-aged man who was suspected to be the leader shouted loudly...
"I am Mobigan from the Hanar tribe! I come here on behalf of our tribe's leader, Battle, to ask for an audience with the King of Conquerors!"
When Burigude heard this, he was slightly startled.
This was the first time he encountered a situation like this.
At the same time, as an authentic prairie man.
He had an impression of the name Mobigan.
If he remembers correctly, he should be the younger brother of Bileg, the original leader of the Hanar tribe.
As his thoughts whirled, Burigude quickly shouted to Mobigan and his group...
"Put down your weapons and get off your horse!"
Upon hearing this, a trace of resistance flashed across the faces of the other prairie cavalry.
On the contrary, Mobigan acted quite simply.
The main thing is that he thinks clearly.
There were more than twenty cavalry in their group. Facing these hundreds of horse archers, was there a big difference between them with weapons and without weapons?
If Burigude wants to kill them, they will die regardless of whether he has a weapon or not.
It would be better to just do it more simply.
When the other prairie cavalry saw Mobigan, they all put down their weapons and dismounted.
Even though they were reluctant in their hearts, they could only do it obediently.
After taking away the weapons and horses of Mobigan and others, Burigude took them directly back to the nearest Eagle City.
At the same time, a flying eagle message was quickly sent from his hand.
With the flying speed of the golden eagle, it is undoubtedly much faster than the homing pigeon.
In a short period of time, the report from the front line was delivered to Luo Ji.
Watching Burigude's Flying Eagle Passing Letters.
When he learned that the people from the Hanar tribe on the grassland wanted to see him.
The look on Luo Ji's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise.
Then he directly sent an order to summon Luo Jin, the commander of the Mirror Division.
Ask him to send over the latest information from the grassland.
Here, I have to talk about the work distribution between the Mirror Division and the Anbu.
To put it simply, one is external and the other is internal.
The Spiegel Department is responsible for external intelligence spying and collection.
The ANBU is responsible for monitoring the interior of the civilization of all realms.
Occasionally also performs assassinations and interrogations.
Of course, this distinction is not absolute, and the two teams will work together from time to time.
All this depends on how Luo Ji mobilizes it.
"Weak minister Luo Jin, please see your Majesty!"
While speaking, Luo Jin directly presented the document in his hands with both hands.
"In recent times, Wei Chen has sorted out all the information returned by spies on the grassland."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Taking the document presented by Luo Jin, Luo Ji continued to speak after a few words of praise...
"There may be some big moves on the grassland recently, so the spies should keep an eye on it."
"Weichen understands!"
Read the document in your hand carefully.
Now, Luo Ji probably knew what the other party was looking for.
After thinking for a while, he agreed to the other party's request in his reply.
Then he ordered Burigude to lead five hundred horse archers and bring Mobigan and his party to see him.
After finishing all the things at hand.
Luo Ji slowly stood up and walked towards the side hall.
To be continued...
