Otherworld Qin

Chapter 211 Chapter 229
After leaving the ruined fortress, Shengxuan led people quietly into the depths of the frozen swamp, but no one knew the purpose of his trip. At the beginning, Reg felt that he must go to the orc royal family where the wood was. station, but now it seems to be turning around in the northern part of the frozen swamp, passing many small orc tribes along the way, Shengxuan patiently asked them about the surrounding environment, gradually perfected the map in his hand, and mapped the orc tribes The exact positions are circled one by one.

In the past half a month, this small group of men and horses had several fierce battles with the Calais soldiers they met. It is simply that these Calais soldiers were in small groups, and most of them brought some captured slaves with them. These squads were more or less injured when these orc slaves were employed, which seriously affected their combat effectiveness.

After these battles, the fighting power of the fallen orc warriors has rapidly improved, and most of the rescued captives have had their relatives killed, so they were included in the mercenary regiment. The number of people has exceeded 200 people, which is much more than when Fallen Leaves won the day.

These orcs are all very strong. It seems that the purpose of the Calais to capture the slaves this time may be to replenish the source of soldiers. Thinking of this, Cheng Xuan couldn't help but feel moved. He started to have trouble recruiting what kind of orcs to join the team, and now he couldn't help thinking Intend.

Although these newcomers are full of brute force, their round combat power is far inferior to the original fighters. Shengxuan asked Mu Mu to guide them personally. Fortunately, a certain number of weapons will be captured from Calais soldiers in every battle, so arm these Recruits are not difficult.

After each battle, these new recruits have improved rapidly. Under Shengxuan's observation, 50 of them were selected as the most powerful, and Mu Mu taught them the inner strength and mentality. If there is a sufficient number of still scattered, the internal strength of this group of fighters can be rapidly improved. As long as they can reach the third level, coupled with their strong bodies, they can become an outstanding fighter who can stand up to ten.

On this day, Shengxuan and his men were walking through the swamp, when suddenly there was a faint sound of cursing and whipping in front of them, which immediately made them more vigilant, the team quickly found a bush to hide, and then sent a few soldiers to check it out.

After a while, those soldiers ran back in a hurry, "There is a large group of Calais soldiers in front, it looks like there are thousands of people, more than 200 of them are cavalry, and the rest are infantry, there are quite a few archers. , There are hundreds of orcs in that team, they should be captured from several tribes, and it seems that they should be escorted to Calais."

After hearing what the soldiers saw, Shengxuan couldn't help but nodded slightly, and then asked Mu Mu in a low voice, "What are you going to do?" Ever since he decided to cultivate Mu Mu, Shengxuan would first ask Mu Mu for his opinion every time, and now Mu Mu looked at the surrounding people. The environment, and then said, "There is no favorable terrain in this place. It may be difficult for our team to rescue those orc brothers. Why don't we follow them quietly and look for opportunities to attack behind, so that we may be able to rescue some of them."

Chengxuan couldn't help smiling, looked at Reg, and saw that he couldn't help shaking his head, "What Mu Mu said is the next strategy, you can't do it unless you have to, the opponent has a full range of troops, and each of these Calais soldiers is right The environment is very familiar, once we go up to entangle, I am afraid that we will be restrained by the other party, and then not only will we not be able to rescue those orcs, but it will easily put us in trouble."

What Reg said made Mu Mu blush immediately, but he didn't rush to argue or admit his mistakes, but was thinking positively and thinking of a better way.

Sheng Xuan couldn't help handing over the map, and then tapped lightly on it, "Our approximate location should be here. There are still hundreds of miles from here to Calais, and it is surrounded by several large swamps. The road should be There are only three, which one do you think they are most likely to take?"

Mu Mu looked at the map carefully, gestured with his fingers, and finally selected a route, "I think they should go here, because this road seems to be the shortest and the least dangerous."

Sheng Xuan couldn't help but nodded, and then said, "I also think this road is very likely, but there is another road, although it is the farthest one, but don't forget, where there is a Calais fortress, it is Which one was destroyed by us, although we know it, but the other party does not necessarily know it. A few hundred miles is not far, but it is not close in this big swamp. I am afraid they will have to walk for a week to get out. It is also reasonable for this fortress to take a rest and replenish some supplies."

"Then what if they know that the fortress has been destroyed? After all, it has been more than ten days. Maybe there is a special way between the Calais garrisons. If they go this way, then we don't want to rush to nothing." ?” Mu Mu thought for a long time and finally made a suggestion.

Reg couldn't help but nodded approvingly. It seems that Wood has been used to thinking during this time, and he will repeatedly consider several possibilities for everything. Although sometimes the thoughts he expresses are too superficial, at least he has slowed down Slowly, I have an overall grasp of everything.

"You can see that the two routes meet here for only a few miles, and then go around the two sides of a swamp. The middle section is a small piece of dense bushes. Although the bushes are full of poisonous thorns, we can't hide it , as long as we arrive there first, and then send people to monitor the routes on both sides, and if we find the target, we will have time to leave later, I think setting up an ambush here should be the most ideal place."

After listening to Reg's words, Mu Mu hurriedly looked at the point on the map carefully, and then couldn't help nodding. If you go to Ragg, you can really bring out a strong orc army.

Originally, Shengxuan had a lot of strategies for marching and fighting in his mind, but now these are too advanced for Mu Mu. If he can’t understand them all at once, it will become a burden. It’s better to learn them slowly from actual combat like now. .

"We'll quietly stalk behind them today, and we'll drive through the night in the evening, trying to get there one day earlier, and the rest will depend on our luck."

There are dangerous swamps everywhere here. Although it is already deep winter, the ice layer will never freeze solid. The seemingly solid ice surface will shatter when people step on it, and then fall into the endless swamp.

But such an environment has an advantage. The reflection on the ground allows the group to see the surrounding environment better. Originally, it is not a problem to see things in the dark with Shengxuanleige's cultivation base, but the orcs are born with night vision. His vision ability is very strong, and he is very familiar with the environment in this swamp, so traveling in the dark is not a problem at all, but it is a little slower than in the daytime.

After two days of trekking, they finally arrived at the scheduled location. They just passed by here a few days ago, and now they come back again, but they have another feeling. Shengxuan asked everyone to go around and check the environment carefully. Gather all the situation to Mu Mu, and when everything around him is under control, Mu Mu began to carefully consider how to set up an ambush.

If he had the upper hand and was in this favorable terrain, it would be no problem to ambush a group of enemy troops, but now that he was far outnumbered by the opponent, and the purpose this time was to rescue the captured orcs, he had to think carefully.

After thinking for a long time, Mu Mu couldn't help but gritted his teeth, "This place is located on the edge of the big swamp, the surrounding environment is very complicated, and the roads that can be walked are very narrow. I think the team of Calais will be very long. Let's just pass by the front." , When the orc brothers in the middle come over, we will attack suddenly, so that we can rescue them all in one fell swoop, I will lead people here to block the Calais, and you can lead them to retreat smoothly on the same route."

This time not only Shengxuan but even Reg laughed, and he couldn't help but said to Mu Mu, "Can't you think of another way? Don't put yourself in danger every time. If that's the case, let's go straight up and fight the Calais people." Isn't it more enjoyable? Since I have already planned to ambush, there must be a better way."

Mu Mu couldn't help but blush, "This is already the best solution I've come up with." Sheng Xuan couldn't help but said slowly, "Look at the surrounding environment, you already know what are the characteristics of Calais people. You have already understood the battle very well, can't you think of a better way? Look here, there is a piece of moss, and there is a muddy swamp below. It is impossible for someone to hide originally, but if we use the bushes here Where to lay a trail in advance, choose where a few orc archers are, and when the Calais arrive, they will make a surprise attack with bows and arrows and then retreat quickly. With the character of the Calais, they will inevitably divide their troops to chase them, so that at least dozens of them can be lured away. A Calais, look here again..."

Shengxuan talked about the surrounding environment one by one, which immediately shocked Mu Mu. It turns out that there are so many ways to fight in battle. Finally, Shengxuan said, "We deliberately changed the landscape in the front section to make the people of Calais feel that there is no certainty. There is an ambush, but they are naturally proud. Even in the face of a large group of people, they will not change their route, but they will definitely be more vigilant in their hearts, but when people are tired, they cannot always be so vigilant. When they pass somewhere, they must be vigilant. I feel very relaxed. At this time, if we suddenly attack again, they will be shocked. Seeing that there are only a few orc warriors, the Calais should be very angry at this time. This is a blatant provocation to them, so they want to wipe them all out. We may send out more soldiers to chase after our suspects, and after a few lines of suspects divert our opponents away, our pressure will be relieved a lot."

"But what if they don't fall for it?" "No? Then we will fight until they fall for it. We have enough bows and arrows, and the orcs are good archers. They move very slowly here, and it is very difficult to fight back with bows and arrows." It’s hard work, and Calais can’t stand it after a few rounds of volleys, and it’s impossible not to chase after that.” Reg laughed and answered Mu Mu, and he also admired Shengxuan’s use of troops in his heart.
