Chapter 446 Deep Valley City

There has never been such a logistics team with such high morale.

In the army, the logistics corps has always had a lower status than the war corps. This is the default unspoken rule.

It's just that this group of pure recruits has no idea that such unspoken rules exist. It is definitely the most special logistics team in the Iron Kingdom.

After forcing the opponent back, everything went according to the original plan and the team set off.

Without the burden of bullock carts and labor, everyone moved forward much faster.

Finally, on the eleventh day of departure, we finally arrived at this northernmost military fortress that the Iron Kingdom could reach.

This is a fortress built entirely of bluestone strips weighing half a ton, located at the exit of the Deep Leaf Canyon.

Deep Leaf Canyon is a miraculous creation of nature.

If you look down on this canyon from mid-air, it will look like some god has used great power to cut a gap out of the middle.

The length of the middle canyon is more than 500 kilometers, and the protruding cliffs have become a natural barrier between humans and orcs.

Deep Valley City is located at the exit of the canyon, blocking the entire canyon. On both sides are canyon cliffs hundreds of meters high.

No matter how agile the orcs are, they cannot climb over the canyon and can only break through the deep valley city head-on.

It can be said that one man can't stop ten thousand people!

Over hundreds of years, countless orcs died in front of Deep Valley City.

The castle here was dyed with a strange dark red color, which seemed to tell the story of the tragic battle that had happened here.

Deep Valley City is embedded in the canyon. Two huge wooden doors were built where the two sides were connected to the mountain wall. The surface was covered with steel and barbs, and they were twenty meters high.

It looks like outstretched wings.

There are five levels of area inside. There are also wells, mills, grain warehouses, and even a complete set of forging stations and all kinds of military equipment in the city.

Definitely the most typical defensive fortress!
Normally, only 10,000 soldiers are needed to defend this place so impregnably that even hundreds of thousands of troops cannot attack and can only bypass other cities.

It's a pity that after the city was breached last time, the two giant doors were demolished by the orcs.

As a result, the advancing legion still needs to use manpower to defend the two gaps, resulting in tens of thousands of people just barely defending the city.

Being stared at by the opponent, any movement would immediately trigger an attack from the orcs.

……

As soon as the logistics troops arrived, the gate of Shengu City was hurriedly lowered.

They had already received Marcus' news and knew in advance that a logistics team was coming.

The heavy door fell to the ground, sending dust flying everywhere.

Someone should have come out to greet them, but the huge deep valley city was completely quiet.

The empty entrance feels like inviting you to enter the urn.

The faces of the new recruits changed.

When facing Marcus's cavalry team of thousands of people before, everyone was not afraid.

But now this is the home base of the Forward Legion, with at least tens of thousands of Forward Legion members inside.

Now it was clear that this was to give them a slap in the face and take revenge for the anger they suffered from Chen Fan and the others.

"Sir, what should we do?"

Once they entered the city, these thousands of them had no choice but to be manipulated.

Chen Fan had already planned it, but at the same time he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Although separated by thick city walls, Chen Fan could feel that there were countless pairs of longing eyes behind those city gates.

These advancing legionnaires, who have been hungry for a long time, have been looking forward to supplies being delivered from the rear.

If their commander hadn't wanted to regain his position and give Chen Fan a show of strength, the soldiers inside would have taken the initiative to come out and cheer by now.

"Leave two hundred kilograms of dried meat and fish. Remember, throw a fire to light it before leaving."

"The rest of you, leave with me!"

If it were anyone else, the first time they come to Deep Valley City would be to enter the city as soon as possible, so that they can have the protection of the fortress and feel at ease.

However, Chen Fan would never put his own safety in the hands of others.

If you enter the city at this time, it is equivalent to putting yourself into the hands of the advancing legion.

What's more dangerous?
He had food in his hands, and inside was a group of soldiers who had been hungry for who knows how long.

Even if there were no people like Marcus, who could guarantee that all of the tens of thousands of people on the other side would be able to accept the food provided by Chen Fan honestly?
They are robbing our own food, what should we do?
From the beginning, Chen Fan never thought about entering the city.

Moreover, it seems that these guys haven't figured out who is asking whom now.

The military order only requires that the logistics team led by Chen Fan transport supplies to Luogu City as soon as possible, but there are no regulations or requirements on how much supplies are needed.

Two hundred catties of grain, that’s still grain.

Who has regulations that say thousands of people can't transport only two hundred kilograms of grain?

If you are dissatisfied, you can go to the logistics command post in the rear and complain, but by the time the new military order is issued, the day lily may be cold.

Under the silent suspension bridge, Chen Fan led his troops to retreat in an orderly manner, leaving only the burning dried meat.

As soon as the grease-filled dried meat was burned by the fire, a salty aroma drifted into Luogu City.

The soldiers of the advancing legion could hold on for a while at first, but when the fragrance wafted into the city, they could no longer bear it.

Soldiers rushed out from the city like hungry ghosts and ran towards the dried meat.

This was the last time Chen Fan saw them, and then he decisively led his team to retreat.

The wooden gates on both sides of Shengu City are no longer there, and now this area cannot be said to be stable.

Fortunately, the most important thing around here is a suitable place to camp.

Without stopping, Chen Fan led the soldiers for more than ten kilometers in one breath, found a small river in the dense forest, and directly led the team to camp here.

You can see Luogu City in the distance from here, and if there is any movement, you can get feedback as soon as possible.

Sheng Mien, fight against Mien.

Chen Fan knew that most of the people in the advancing corps were probably the same as Marcus. They felt that the casualties of the logistics corps were not important at all.

As long as we can provide them with food, it doesn't matter even if they all die.

It is not possible to enter Luogu City for the time being, and I will probably stay here for a long time.

An order was given for everyone to start cutting down trees and make temporary campsites.

Trenches, horses, traps, bonfires, sentries, everything was prepared according to the scale of a regular temporary camp.

The sky slowly began to darken, but everyone was working enthusiastically.

Rather than relying on others, it is more comfortable to have a camp of your own.

At least you don't have to worry, someone might come to your camp in the middle of the night and rob you.
