In the military camp, Linton carefully confirmed all the troop plans of the Orcs, the configuration and deployment of the troops, the layout of the military camp, the storage locations of grain and grass equipment, and the movements of the Orcs' army. Linton basically had a complete grasp of the situation, and with a little calculation
After a while, Linton had already arranged the next step.
As I said before, it is unrealistic and has no strategic significance to move the entire army over the mountain. It is true that the fortress was spared, but so what? A large-scale march cannot be hidden from the opponent. If it is discovered, the losses will be huge.
It's not one or two o'clock anymore. But a small-scale surprise attack force is possible.
Linton has seen the strategy of the Orcs. Under the current situation, the Orcs themselves have no intention of sending out a surprise attack force from the side. They still decided to attack the fortress with all their strength. Seeing that they are planning to concentrate their forces to attack for a few days, it is best to
Take down the fortress before the human reinforcements arrive. If this plan fails, think of other ways.
However, they did not spare it themselves and let the human race send out a surprise attack force. If a small group of troops really came around, wouldn't it be a big problem if their food and grass were missing? So they have always been in the forest area to the north.
Someone was sent to investigate.
However, Linton looked at the reconnaissance deployment and found that the Holy See's troops were quite far away, so it was probably difficult to find them. After all, the route had been planned in advance, so what should we do? Linton could only help.
So according to the arrangement of the orcs' reconnaissance force, Linton went directly to find them. That day, several groups of the orcs' reconnaissance force did not come back. This of course aroused the vigilance of the orc commander. After a little investigation, he found that they had not returned.
Several pairs of people were scouting in the same direction, that is, towards the forest in the north.
Send additional manpower to investigate." The commander here said immediately.
Marshal, is this a human surprise attack team?" the deputy general next to him quickly reminded.
Well, it is very possible that Tosens, the commander of Roseg Fortress, is very cunning and is very likely to do such a thing." The Orc Marshal nodded and said, "General Dis."
I'm here." A sturdy orc warrior came out next to him.
Let your soldiers be on standby, and once you discover the whereabouts of the enemy's surprise attack force, immediately go to intercept it," said the Orc Marshal.
Yes, Marshal." General Dis immediately accepted the order.
The enemy's troops cannot be too numerous. The most important thing for the orcs at present is to speed up the attack on Rosegg Fortress and try to capture it before the opponent's reinforcements arrive, so they only sent a small team to deal with the enemy's possible surprise attack.
What needs to be done now is to determine the opponent's position and the direction of the surprise attack.
Due to the increased search scope and manpower, reports soon came out that traces of people were actually found in the woods to the north. Yes, what they found were traces of the activities of people from the Light Church, the most obvious ones.
It was the corpse of the monster. The church came all the way and killed many monsters that were blocking the way. The scouts of the beast tribe knew at a glance that they had been killed recently, which meant that someone was moving in the forest, and there must be a lot of them. After all,
But the monsters, with such a small number of people, cannot deal with them.
Through the traces discovered one after another, they have probably determined the direction of action of this "human force". General Dis, who had received the order, naturally immediately set off with his own troops. There were 5,000 orc troops in his group.
, although the size of the human army cannot be determined yet, there is definitely no problem in dealing with them.
But to be honest, Dis was a little surprised as to why it was this route. According to what was discovered, the enemy's destination was probably near Wisla City. Wisla City is a small border trade town, not a strategic location.
Yes, this city is very small and has almost no city walls. Do the human commanders think they will store food here and use it as a granary?
Although I don’t know what’s going on, the interception must be intercepted. At this time, the troops of the Light Church are still marching in the forest. Although Dis’s troops are larger in number, they are walking along the road, and the march along the way is faster than that of the Church of the Light.
The troops arrived near the city of Wisla even earlier. The civilians in the city of Wisla were very nervous when they saw the troops coming here. Could it be that they didn't have enough military rations to grab food?
Yes, the Orcs always do this kind of thing. When they don’t have enough military supplies, they rob the neighboring cities, including their own people. Now that the Humans and the Orcs are at war, Wisla City was originally a border trade city that did business between the two countries. As a result,
Now the business can no longer be carried out. All the merchants have left early. There are only a few thousand local people left in the city, and their lives are almost unbearable. Are there still people coming to snatch their food?
Fortunately, Dis's troops had no intention of entering the city. Instead, they moved closer to the nearby woods and prepared to set up camp. Yes, the enemies definitely came out from the direction of the woods, so just intercept them here. However, right here
When Dis's troops were preparing to set up camp, the latest reconnaissance information came. They discovered the enemy's troops. The opponent... was actually the knights of the Church of Light.
What?" Seeing this information, Dis was also stunned for a moment. What happened to the knights of the Church of Light? After repeatedly asking the scouts whether it was the truth, he was sure. Could it be that the Church of Light was also involved in this war?
? I haven’t heard of it. However, the Church of Light is also an enemy and will fight as soon as it comes. However, this matter must be reported to the Shaman Council first. After all, it involves the Church of Light.
So Dis quickly sent someone to send a message to the Marshal of the Orcs, and found that the enemy's troops were the Knights of the Church of Light. Their number was unknown. Only one of the teams was found so far, and they asked the Marshal what he meant.
The marshal of the Orcs was also stunned. Why are they the troops of the Church of Light? What are they doing here? Are they united with the Holy Empire of Elan? But no matter what happened, the marshal immediately ordered that everyone should be beaten first. On the other hand, he
Of course, this matter was also reported to the Shaman Council.
At this time, the Shaman Council happened to be looking for the troops of the Church of Light. Yes, Linton arranged for Sieg to reach the territory of the orcs safely. After that, he immediately found the local mayor and said that he came from the territory of the human race.
The escaped slaves have important things to report to the Shaman Council.
Sieg still had the mark of a slave on his body, so when the mayor saw this situation, he thought it might be a big deal. Thinking that the orcs and humans had already started a war, it might be important information, so he immediately reported it to his superiors. The news soon followed.
It spread to the palace of Madrama Empire.
The national advisor of the Madrama Empire is one of the elders of the Shaman Council. As mentioned before, the Shaman Council was jointly founded by the orc tribes, and the orc tribe has established a total of two empires. The shamans of these two empires naturally
They are all the most important members of the council. There is no way they are strong, and their right to speak is much greater than those of the shamans of small tribes.
The shaman elder named Donaghy heard that an escaped slave wanted to find their shaman council by name, and decided to listen to what he wanted to say, because according to the other party, it was the shaman council.
The spies sent out asked him to come, and the information he wanted to report was very important, related to the safety of the entire orc race.
Not long after, Donaghy saw Sieg. Of course, he was not from his true form, but through the shaman's witchcraft projection. He himself was still in the main city of the Orc Empire. After all, the identity of this orc slave was doubtful. In case he was
What to do with spies and assassins? So we chose this method of meeting.
Of course, Sieg didn't care whether the other party came in person or not. Hearing that the place was the elder of the Shaman Council, he quickly explained the situation to the other party. It was basically the content that Linton compiled for him, what kind of book of seals?
, heirs, cards, artifacts, things like that.
What Sieg said was very mysterious. The city lord who brought him next to him was confused when he heard it. He felt that Sieg was talking nonsense, but Donaghy on the opposite side listened. Yes, the Shaman Council has been paying attention.
After all, the Bright Church's movements are the church's enemies. No matter what the other party does, they will of course pay attention.
In recent times, he has heard a lot about this. The Church of Light is looking for cards throughout the human race, and there are also things like the Book of Sealing. He has heard their spies talk about it, but because of the appearance of
The time was relatively short, and they really didn't know the specific information, and recently they actually sent a lot of spies to investigate this matter.
After hearing what Sieg said, Donaghy felt that he was definitely not making it up. Although he had never heard of the names like Thrall and Grom he mentioned, they had filmed a lot of secret agents, and he was not one of them either.
No one knew everyone's name. Donaghy felt that there was a 70% to 80% chance that what Sieg said was true. It was impossible for a teenager to make up such a thing. At most, it was a conspiracy from the Church of Light.
Send someone to deliver the message to them.
So how to verify it? Donaghy must verify this matter, so isn't there a good way now? Sieg said that a team from the Church of Light is chasing him and wants to snatch the heir to the Sealed Book
Go back, isn't that just right? The territory of the orcs is for you pagans to come and leave as you please? If you catch these people and torture them, won't you know the authenticity of the news?
Donaghy also took it seriously and immediately notified other people in the Shaman Council. At the same time, he also decided to rush to the southern part of the empire to meet Sieg. At the same time, he also mobilized the southern council team to start the search.
The church’s pursuit force that Sieg was talking about.
What they didn't expect was that just as they were about to start searching, a message came from the military camp in the south, saying that they had discovered a church troop appearing in the forest in the south. Isn't this a coincidence? They are looking for you.
When Donaghy heard the news, he immediately came to the south to take charge. At the same time, he summoned the law enforcement team and the trial army of the Shaman Council to prepare for action.
