As Ron led the infantry, and Quill and Kerry entered the field with the Flying Bear, Tiger and Leopard respectively, the battle was actually coming to an end.

They just rushed in to make up for the leaks. After all, the number of cavalry is so small. They can defeat and disperse these migrating ogre tribes in groups, but they really can't kill them completely. It depends on the last one. A group of pawns to complete the combing.

The tiger and leopard army and the flying bear army are actually not short of troops now. In the previous battles, the loss rate was between 20 and 30%, and it was impossible to replenish them in the wilderness.

It stands to reason that it would be difficult for an army to maintain its morale and combat effectiveness without a period of rest and replenishment after a loss of 20 to 30 percent, but the morale and resilience of the army under Li Cha are already higher than the army of this era Quite a few, although the loss this time was huge, it was a victorious army. It hadn't experienced any defeats, and its morale had been screaming, so it dared to use it like this all the time.

"kill!"

The enthusiasm of the soldiers is quite high, and they are unconsciously speeding up without the urging of the officers. After all, the ogres, enemies with high military merits, basically have no resistance at this moment, and most of them have been broken up. No matter how strong the sporadic ogres are, they can't fight against the human army that has been organized into battle. This is simply a military exploit for nothing.

On the flat ground in the middle of the wilderness, there was a constant sound of killing, and the lighting fires almost illuminated half of the night sky. Relatively thin and weak humans were chasing and killing ogres who were much bigger and bigger than them. It looked a little funny.

Compared to the human warriors on the plain who were shouting to hunt down ogres, there were still a large group of humans shivering in the darkness in a dark stone hut, listening to the sound of fighting outside but not daring to make any movements.

"Uncle Tom, the ogres and kobolds outside seem to be gone?"

A young man in the darkness seemed to have noticed something, and was a little ready to move, wanting to get up and explore something.

"Don't go out! It's dangerous outside."

But before the young man got up, he was pulled back by the middle-aged man beside him.

"But, there should be no ogre guarding outside, so we can take the opportunity to escape."

"Where do you want to escape to in this wilderness?"

Compared with the impatient young man, Old Tom obviously had a lot more thoughts, and he could hear the movement outside clearly.

Originally, these craftsmen who were captured could not go out easily. According to the rules set by the ogre, in this workshop composed of stone houses and shacks, they made weapons and armor for the ogre. Their safety was guaranteed. This place is very likely to be directly killed by the ogre as a food reserve.

Now the ogre craftsmen and guards in the original workshop didn't know where to go. Coupled with the movement outside, it was obvious that something happened. It sounded like an army was coming.

It's just that in Old Tom's opinion, it's not appropriate to move around at this moment. Even if he ran out in disorder, could he still escape hundreds of miles from the wilderness and return to the Northland?

"boom!"

"ah!"

Just when everyone was frightened, the simple and rough door of the stone house was pushed open heavily, causing the people who were already in fright to exclaim unconsciously.

But the next scene reassured everyone. The person who opened the door held a torch in his hand. Through the torch, it could be seen that it was a human soldier in armor, not a vicious ogre.

"Step, step, step..."

Later, more human warriors filed in, and some crossbowmen quickly seized key positions and were on guard.

"Don't move around, just squat on the ground!"

The human soldiers who came in were not so gentle. The bloody smell on the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army who had just fought a battle had not dissipated. Many of them still had bright red blood on their blue and white cloth masks. ferocious.

These human beings captured by the ogre were already in panic, so they were naturally very obedient to the soldiers who came in suddenly, squatting obediently on the ground and not daring to move.

"My lord, no ogres have been found in this place, it seems that they are all humans."

"Oh shit."

The leader of the army is a commander of the capital. He thought that there might be many ogres hidden in this place to enrich his military exploits, so he made enough preparations, but he didn't expect to come in and found that they were all human beings. He couldn't help but swear .

In fact, the significance of bringing these humans back is much greater than the significance of chopping off a few more ogre heads, but who says he is a pure martial artist? What is more important in his eyes is how to obtain more military exploits.

But the matter has come to this point, he can't ignore these people, and after confirming that there are no ogres, he simply called someone for questioning.

"Who are you all?"

"My lord, we are all captured by ogres a few months ago, please take us home."

"My lord, please take us home!"

As soon as the person who was called out for questioning said the word "go home", the people below who had been shrinking couldn't help shouting, who doesn't want to leave here and return to the human world.

"Stop, stop!"

"What are you doing here?"

After questioning, this Dutong probably understood the situation. After understanding, he didn't like these people. This group of people actually helped ogres to make weapons, armor and siege equipment. Fortunately, he is not a brainless and tyrannical person. Although he was angry, he did not issue some irreversible orders. He only let people report the situation here.

It was the dawn of dawn, and after a night of fighting, it was supposed to be the time when everyone was exhausted, but Li Cha's central army tent was quite lively.

"Master Li Cha, we have gained a lot this time!"

"Yes, there are millions of livestock alone."

"If all these livestock are sold to the capital, they can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of kinnars."

In Li Cha's camp, many senior military officers were sitting together, excitedly discussing the gains from this battle.

The center of the wilderness was originally the fundamental place chosen by Grugesh, with abundant water and grass, it is not surprising that so many livestock can be raised. Among the livestock, most of the cattle and sheep are used for slaughtering and eating meat, and there are some large pack animals.

It is a pity that although ogres belong to nomadic civilization, they hardly raise horses. They mainly rely on pack animals for their migration. As mounts, most of the horses cannot bear the weight of ogres and cannot be ridden. It is not as good as meat. Cattle and sheep, resulting in no horses available in the vast wilderness.

But even so, it is definitely a good harvest. Hundreds of thousands of kinnars cannot be sold. Let alone whether so many livestock can be transported to the Central Plains, it is just such a large volume that once it is put into the market , it is estimated that the price will be smashed into the dive,

But these beef and mutton, the Hunter's own needs, to improve the lives of soldiers, and the amount of meat consumed by Li Cha's royal griffins is also a lot, with this harvest, at least for a long time, Li Cha You don't have to worry about meat supplies anymore, and you can save a lot of money.

"Master Li Cha, during the cleanup process, the first part of our army found a large number of humans captured by ogres."

"how many people?"

"At least 50,000 to 60,000 people."

Just when everyone was excited about this harvest, Li Cha heard another good news,

Fifty to sixty thousand people is not a small number. Besides, there are still a large number of craftsmen among these living humans. No matter how bad they are, they are all young and strong who can work. Directly replenishing the population of the territory will also make Town Magic City much more lively. There are a large number of craftsmen, and to a certain extent, the significance of harvesting the tens of thousands of people captured by ogres is far greater than the millions of livestock.

"Give them some food and take care of the people."

"Yes, my lord."

Li Cha's thinking is not as superficial as that of ordinary military officers. In his opinion, it is a last resort for these craftsmen to do things for ogres. With knives on their necks, there is no right or wrong. Now these people are precious treasures in his hands, so naturally he has to take good care of them.

What? You said that these people were all looted from other lords in the Northland? I'm sorry, since I, Richard, rescued me, then I'm a member of the Hunter family, and it's still impossible to repay it. There is no possibility of spit out the benefits in this life...
