Chapter 167 Returning to Camp for Help

The human soldiers deliberately left the hole wide open, which was a provocation to the courage of the orc warriors.

After hesitating for a moment, the orc thousand-man leader grabbed a shield from the soldier next to him and roared before jumping into the hole.

Orcs never lack courage. With the general leading the way, orc warriors jumped down one after another.

After the thousand-man leader jumped down, he raised his shield to protect his body at the same time, but the expected attack from the human soldiers did not appear.

In front of him was a narrow tunnel, but as long as he lowered his head and shrank his body a little, the orcs could pass through.

The thousand-man leader waited for a while for the orc warriors to come down one after another, and then resolutely led the team into the passage. After walking out more than ten meters, he did not see even the shadow of a human soldier, but suddenly felt a vibration from above his head. He realized what happened and yelled, "Run, run back!"

It was too late. With a loud bang, thousands of tons of soil above his head collapsed instantly, and all the orcs in a passage of more than ten meters were buried alive.

Underground is the domain of earth magicians. The first-level "earth movement" plus the second-level "ground sinking", two most basic earth magics, no matter how strong orc warriors you are, you will be buried alive in the face of the power of nature.

This ground sinkhole not only buried the orc thousand-man leader and orc warrior who jumped down, but also filled up most of the hole formed before. When the orcs dug the hole again, they could only collect the bodies of the buried orcs.

On the other side, Gold and Hughie were also not idle.

While the orcs were struggling to dismantle the military warehouse, they suddenly appeared on the top of the city with their men.

Such an obvious target naturally attracted many orcs to surround it quickly.

The orcs who rushed over found that the ladders to the city had been completely destroyed by the human soldiers. What greeted them were the boulders and rolling logs thrown from the top of the city. It was another hard siege.

Gold had led people to guard the city wall for more than half a month. She was familiar with every inch of the city wall. She led the soldiers to the city wall directly from the hidden soldier cave inside the city wall, and quickly collected the city defense equipment that was not used up in the previous battle.

After more than a month, Gold and Hughie led more than a hundred human warriors to fight another city defense battle with the orcs!

Although they were besieged in the front military city, Arthur, Gold and the soldiers did not give up. One team of them was underground, and the other team was on the top of the city. Even if they died in battle, they would break the orcs' teeth!

Snowstorm Legion, front-line camp.

The lights were on in the central army tent. Prince Hobbs, Gino and the four army commanders were discussing matters.

The old prince's face was full of rosy glow, and he seemed to have regained his youth in the army these days.

King's lieutenant suddenly walked into the tent quickly and whispered something in King's ear.

King's expression was obviously stunned, and then his brows were furrowed.

Prince Hobbes on the side looked at King with a smile, "Is there anything else that worries us, the commander of the King army?"

The king hesitated for a moment, then slowly said: "Our infantry squadron that assassinated Hicks and caused the war between the two tribes has broken through the orc wasteland!"

"What? Is the information true?" Even Prince Hobbes, who had seen a lot of storms, was shocked. At the time of the war between the two tribes, crossing the border between the two tribes again seemed to be an impossible thing.

"It's true. The soldiers sent by the squadron to ask for help are outside the camp."

"Where are they now?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, they should have gone to the front military city."

"Isn't the front military city behind the orc camp? What are they doing there?"

King smiled helplessly, "I don't know the specific details. Maybe we should call in the soldier sent by the seventh squadron to ask for help."

"Let him come in and answer."

The dusty and exhausted monkey was led into the central military camp by the lieutenant.

For two days and one night, the monkey almost didn't close his eyes all the way, and kept moving towards the control area of ​​the Snow Legion, and had to avoid the orc scouts in the middle. When he was closest to the orcs, the monkey lay in the ditch beside the road, and the orc cavalry whizzed past him.

Thanks to the goddess of luck, Monkey met the scouts of the Snowstorm Legion at dusk the next day, and Arthur and the soldiers had been in the Front Army City for a whole day and night.

Monkey looked at the people above the tent with a reserved look, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and he even forgot to salute. These were all top-level figures in the legion. He, the youngest soldier in the army, never thought that one day he would be able to talk directly with the legion commander and deputy legion commander.

While Monkey was beating his heart, Hobbes and others were also looking at this skinny soldier at the same time. The first thing that caught their attention was Monkey's level 4 armor and the level 4 "Wanderer's Sorrow" bow he carried. This equipment would never appear on an ordinary soldier. Only officers at the level of captain or even battalion commander could have this equipment.

"What's your name?" The person asking was Joshua, the commander of the Front Army, and Monkey was his soldier.

"Monkey."

Prince Hobbes at the head snorted.

The monkey was frightened and immediately changed his words, "No, they call me Monkey. My name is Jeffrey, the captain of the 7th Squadron of the Huger Infantry Regiment of the former army."

"How many people are left in your 7th Squadron now?" Joshua continued to ask.

"We still have more than 350 people."

"Where did you get so many people in one squadron?"

So, under Joshua's questioning, the monkey reported the experience of the 7th Squadron after entering the Orc Wasteland to the military leaders present.

This experience was too legendary, and the monkey did not add any extra description. It took him an hour to finish the whole experience.

He also deliberately concealed the details of the transaction, with Leon and Professor Sharing's help. The monkey was smart enough. He knew that cooperating with orcs was a taboo for the human race, and it could not be said on this occasion anyway.

The highest level of lies is nine truths and one lie. The monkey pushed all the slightly unreasonable details onto the old dwarf, Telugu. Anyway, the old dwarf would definitely not cooperate with their investigation, so even the old and cunning Hobbes did not realize the part that the monkey deliberately omitted.

After the monkey left, the military leaders were still immersed in the incredible experience of Arthur and the Seventh Squadron, and no one spoke in the military tent for a long time.

After a long time, Hobbes sighed, "The young are formidable!"

"The kingdom's military fortune is prosperous, and the younger generation of warriors are emerging in an endless stream!" Joshua also echoed on the side.

Jinuo interrupted and said, "Old Prince, now we are not amazed at these guys causing such a big trouble. The most urgent thing is that they are trapped in the front military city. Should we rescue them or not?"

Prince Hobbes smiled with narrowed eyes, "Although they have caused a big disaster, they have also made my Snow Wind Legion famous. We naturally cannot let the soldiers below feel cold. Anyway, we have decided to get rid of Chili before Elliot enters the country. It is better to do it sooner rather than later. Take this opportunity to launch a counterattack!"

"Then I will make arrangements now." Jinuo immediately stood up and walked out of the tent. He was the most anxious one.
