Otherworld Qin

Chapter 242
Calais, the generals of the three legions, walked on that secret road. It can be seen from their faces that they are very dissatisfied with Upton's arrangement this time. One general couldn't help saying, "Apton That idiot actually mobilized our three corps to come over and said to surround the Coagulation Swamp. Does he think this big swamp is a plate on his table? Enough is enough. Now that the empire is at war with Omar, and at such a tense time, so many troops are mobilized to garrison Stormy Waves City. Who will complete the task of arresting slaves assigned by His Majesty the King? I really don’t know what he thinks of."

"General Pryor, don't say that. I think the arrangement made by Governor Upton is very reasonable. You must know that Stormy Wave City has hoarded a lot of our food and grass, and it seems that there is an important orc seal there. Things, so we should be more considerate of Governor Upton at this critical moment, once Stormy Waves City falls, we,,,,,"

"Hmph!" Before he finished speaking, the person next to him snorted coldly, "Sackett, did that kid Upton do you any good? Let you defend him like this? Our [-]th Legion is the honor of Calais." , and we are cavalry, but we were sent to garrison here, why not send the Seventeenth Corps over? They are all navy, and they are more suitable for fighting in this big swamp."

"Benguela, what do you mean by that? Everyone is General Calais, and they are all doing things for the empire. Thinking that I, Sackett, have always acted aboveboard, do I need any benefits from Upton?"

"Okay, both of you stop talking, I think the city of Stormy Waves has already fallen." Pryor who spoke first suddenly said this, which surprised the other two, "What the hell? What's going on?" "Could it be that you know something?"

"You two idiots, didn't you feel a mysterious energy fluctuation before? Don't you know what is sealed there? Then let me tell you, the totem statue of the beast god is sealed there. Only gods can release it. I was once honored to enter the Temple of Honor because of my outstanding military exploits, so I am very concerned about this fluctuation,,,,, "

"Oh, I understand. You have been making trouble for a long time just to show off that you have entered the Hall of Honor. Although it is a supreme honor, I entered there a few years before you, and I was also conferred by the king., ,,," Before Sackett finished speaking, he heard a cold snort.

"It's okay if you two don't talk about this, but once I talk about it, I will talk about it. Didn't our [-]th Army fight less tough battles than you? Didn't we charge at the forefront that time? Didn't we fight to the last moment that time? Back then Who led the cavalry to rescue you from the siege of the Omar people? And who charged all the way in front so that you can successfully capture the enemy's pass? Because my legion suffered heavy casualties, when you were rewarded, But I was relegated to this frozen swamp, you still have the face to say this? Hmph!"

"Hey? I said Benguela, it's not right for you to say that. Since you mentioned the past, I want to tell you carefully. What was the mission assigned by the king? It was to let your cavalry serve as flanks. Covering our army's retreat, I didn't expect you to change from the flank to the main attack, disrupting all our retreat plans, and this made us fall into a siege. If it weren't for the two of us desperately pulling you, I'm afraid your cavalry regiment would have been completely destroyed. The army is gone, you dare to mention this?" Sackett was very dissatisfied and complained.

When Pryor heard this, he immediately cheered up, "Yes, yes, since you mentioned it, I will also calculate with you. When we attacked the enemy's pass, our third army had already beaten the enemy defenselessly. But you suddenly rushed up to intervene. Don’t forget that you are a cavalry. Can your horse fly to the top of the city? Your disturbance just delayed our general attack and almost made the Omar reinforcements succeed. If it weren’t for us The third legion is brave, surpass your cavalry and attack the city wall, I am afraid that the pass will be saved by the Omar people."

"Okay, I didn't expect to see each other for so many years. The two of you put on a pair of pants, and now you are bullying me together. I tell you that I am not afraid. If we have the ability, we will open a team to compete now. Even if you two legions Together, I can still beat you to pieces."

"Okay, if you have the heart, I will accompany you to the end. Without the intervention of their Eighth Army, our Third Army is enough to block your short-legged cavalry."

"You! You are insulting our entire [-]th Army Corps. If I don't compete with you today, I won't be called Benguela!"

From the fact that this simple conversation almost turned into a melee between several legions, it can be seen that although these three generals fought bravely, they were very difficult to control, otherwise they would not have been assigned to guard in this big swamp , just when the two sides were about to start a war, suddenly a fast horse rushed over, "report!"

Hearing this notification, the three of them calmed down, "Say!" Benguela still shouted angrily, the horseman had already approached, and the scout got off his horse and quickly ran to him and said, " General Qi, ah, several generals, we found a road that was damaged for several miles in front, and the vanguard troops are rushing to repair it now, but..." He couldn't help but glanced at Prior.

"Quick fart, I don't have time to talk to you here." Benguela cursed angrily, and the scout hurriedly said, "However, a large number of corpses of soldiers from the Third Legion were found in that section of ice water, and some It should be the banner of the original garrison in Jingtao City, I am afraid that they were attacked by orcs fiercely, and no survivors were found, it seems that they all died in battle."

Hearing this, Benguela was not surprised at all. Instead, he looked at Prior with a bit of sarcasm. The meaning in his eyes was already very obvious. Is this your Third Legion?

Prior frowned, looked at the scout, he was not angry, but asked the scout, "Did you find the orc team?" "No orc!" This made Prior look ugly. To the other two generals, "This is what I'm most worried about. It seems that the orcs have really captured Jingtao City. How could they be so fast? There are 50 troops stationed in Jingtao City, and there are more than ten master generals Sitting in the town, it seems that the orcs are at least 7000. I have sent about [-] soldiers, and the Jingtao City sentry along the way has no less than [-] troops. The entire army was wiped out here. I am afraid that the orcs who were ambushing here at the beginning No less than tens of thousands, where did so many orc troops come out? They gathered under the noses of our three legions and took down Stormy Waves City in one fell swoop. If this news gets out, the three of us will probably be severely punished by the temple Punishment, can’t handle it well,,,,”

Benguela's face that was full of ridicule finally showed a hint of shock, and hurriedly asked the scout, "How is the road repair now?" "We have too few people, and it will take about two days to repair it at this speed." Pass." The scout had just finished speaking, but he was whipped severely by Benguela, "Bastard, you go back to me immediately and tell them that I will pass here before dark tomorrow, and I will pass through with all the teams , if the road cannot be repaired, then you will all jump into the swamp to fill the hole for me."

"But general..." The scout took a whip on his shoulder, but grinned and wanted to argue, but Benguela glared at him angrily, and swallowed the second half of the sentence, "It's the general, if you can't work it out , we will collectively jump into the swamp to pave the way."

After hearing this, Sackett, who was silent all the time, said to the lieutenant beside him, "Boman, take 2000 people and throw away all the equipment and armor, and move forward at full speed. You must get there before dark, and help the [-]th Army to repair that section of the road together." OK." The lieutenant next to him heard the order and hurriedly agreed, and turned around to make arrangements. Benguela thought for a while and said to the lieutenant beside him, "Take all the light cavalry to help."

It was Sackett who turned his head and said to the two of them, "Did you find anything wrong?" "What's wrong?" "What do you mean?" Both of them were a little confused.

"I have been to Stormy Wave City no less than four times, and each time I took this road, and every time there were monsters of all sizes on both sides, but I dared not approach because of the oppression of the Baccus Formation in the middle of the road, but today Our three legions walked here but didn't find a monster, don't you think it's a bit strange?"

"What's the matter? Tens of thousands of us walked together. Even if there were monsters, they would have been scared away. What's so strange?" Benguela said carelessly, but Pryor smiled contemptuously, "You are a monster. Are they native dogs from your hometown? They are not the kind that will scare you away when there are too many people."

"Pryor, what do you mean?" "Okay, okay, when are you two still arguing here? I'm worried about the legend that people say that the beast god totem descended into the world and the original affinity of the orcs awakened. Is it really like this, let those orcs contract all the monsters?"

"What do you think of as a contract? That's not buying a bird in the market. You say that the contract is a contract? Besides, there are more than tens of millions of monsters in this big swamp?" Benguela wanted to refute Sackett, but he looked to both sides After a long time, I couldn't help saying, "Damn, today is really evil. If you don't tell me, I really didn't pay attention. There is really no monster here. What happened?"

While talking, the three of them led the army forward quickly, and finally at noon the next day, they came to the place where the wood had blocked. The corpses of Calais soldiers soaked in the ice water on both sides, the three of them felt a little nervous for the first time, and Pryor couldn't help asking the soldiers who were building the road next to them, "Have you found the corpses of orcs? "The answer I got was no, not to mention that the body didn't even find a single weapon except the arrowhead.

Pryor's complexion couldn't help becoming more and more gloomy. He looked at Benguela and Sackett. At the moment, their complexions were not much better than his. Suddenly, the three of them asked almost at the same time, "What kind of army is this?" Lyle even added, "Could it be that Omar's regular army sneaked into the swamp?"
