Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 429 The Beastman's Response

The capital of the orcs, Monaia.

Autumn on the plateau is also varied, but the vicinity of Monaia is obviously a bit over-developed. There are not a few trees, and there are dense buildings in the city. Outside the city, there are stretches of farmland.

Beastmen, like humans, are a highly adaptable race. After being driven to the eastern plateau, they also learned to develop according to local conditions. They grazed in places suitable for grazing, cultivated in places suitable for farming, and some even lived a life of fishing and hunting. , Anyway, how can we feed more people and live.

Apart from its terrain, there is also a big reason why Monaia can be used as the king's capital of the orcs. The water source is abundant here, and the flat terrain is the most suitable place for farming on the entire eastern plateau, so it is very suitable for gathering and living.

It's just that in recent years, the wind and sand in Monaia have been getting bigger and bigger. In autumn, the strong wind blows the sand and dust and often blows the buildings of the king's capital to be covered with dust, making the entire Beast King look like it was buried in the ground. It always takes time to clean up afterwards.

According to this progress, Monaia will become less and less suitable for survival. At that time, even if the Golden Dragon Clan continues to support humans, the orcs will have to attack Longxi Pass under the threat of survival.

In a sense, Jinlong's departure is just an inducement. In essence, another decisive battle between humans and orcs is inevitable. Jinlong's breach of the contract and Adrilo's instigation only brought the progress of the whole matter forward.

In the orc palace, a blond Haldane was sitting on a throne made of animal bones, listening to the latest frontline battle situation.

The war on Longxiguan is not only the top priority of human beings, it is also a matter of survival for orcs. The recent movements made by humans on the front line of Longxiguan should arouse vigilance as long as they are not blind.

"Your Majesty, according to our observations, humans have concentrated more than 3 million troops in the middle of Longxi Pass, and news of human reinforcements has been heard from all the camps facing each other on the front line."

"Your Majesty, I suggest that we continue to increase our troops toward the Shouwang City in the middle of Dragon's Breath Pass. Now there are only 30 legions with less than 800,000 people in that area. It will be a bit difficult to face an army of 3 million humans and five dragon knights."

"No, humans have invested a lot of troops in the northern dense forest, and they have the intention to enter the plateau directly through the dense forest. According to the information reported by General Adru, although there are not many human troops attacking from the dense forest, there are more than 30 giant dragons. Moving with the army, General Adru is calling for reinforcements."

"The number of human troops that can come through the northern dense forest should not be large. According to our intelligence, humans are very likely to launch an attack from the central line of the Watch City, otherwise they would not gather so many troops here."

"Although the human army in the northern dense forest is small in number, the 30 giant dragons are real. Let them rush to the plateau, and they can reach the city of Monaia in less than ten days. The neighborhood is completely empty.”

When the orc ministers below talked about the thirty giant dragons, their faces were obviously a little unnatural. The memory of the golden dragon was too deep for them. It can be said that the golden dragon helped humans defeat the orcs with the power of the family. And continued to fight for humans for hundreds of years, the orcs who died at the hands of the dragon might be able to circle the continent.

After Haldane heard this number of golden dragons, although he remained calm on the surface, he actually trembled in his heart.

The news about the northern dense forest had already come in earlier, and Haldane had already digested the news for a while, otherwise he might lose his composure right now.

Obviously according to the information, the Golden Dragon Clan is already planning to break the contract, why are there so many Golden Dragons joining the human army to fight? Could it be that the previous intelligence was all a smoke screen put by humans? Is there a problem with the elf god Adrilo?

Haldane put his suspicion on Adrillo again, or he never believed in this elf.

"Where is the nearest army to the northern jungle?"

"Your Majesty, because the northern dense forest has always been controlled by the kingdom, the distance from the northern dense forest to the capital has basically no defensive force except for a few city garrisons. If reinforcements are mobilized from the royal capital, it will take at least a week. to the northern jungles."

Haldane didn't speak for a while after listening, but thought about it with a sullen face.

To be honest, the arrangement of humans this time made him somewhat puzzled. At the beginning, through the analysis of the intelligence provided by Adrillo, Haldane believed that humans were very likely to launch a desperate attack from the center line. The movement is basically just a military feint, as long as the humans in the middle are defeated first, and then they turn around to deal with the human troops in other directions, it is easy.

Subsequent human movements also confirmed his judgment. The gathering of the five dragon knights, the assembly of millions of troops, and the arrival of the western border cavalry on the southern line are all signs of human beings making big moves.

However, the sudden information from the North Road made him confused. Generally, the humans infiltrating from the North Road basically did not pose any threat. Over time, the two sides basically didn't care about the confrontation on the North Line. The orcs in the huge dense forest were just arranged After forming a legion, the human army stationed on the corresponding line of defense for a long time is no more than one hundred thousand people.

Now humans are suddenly launching a fierce attack in this direction, which means that it is the main attack direction. The number of ground troops is too small. An army of 100,000 people really enters the plateau like delivering food.

Let's say it's a feint, but this team has more than 30 giant dragons fighting together, which is definitely a force that cannot be ignored.

After thinking about it for a while, Haldane still decided to pay attention to this excessive army with an obviously large number of dragons, and ordered.

"The Seventh, Twelfth, Seventeenth, and Twenty-first Legions of the Monaan Guards are led by Lord Ruer, carrying ten dragon-hunting crossbows, and immediately go to the northern dense forest to deploy defenses, and must block humans in the northern dense forest among."

"The Fifth and Eighth Legions of the Praetorian Guards went to the Overwatch City to support the Avengers Corps. Order the Overwatch City army not to act rashly."

"Your Majesty, will the king be too empty?"

Haldane dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops in one breath. Half of the king's army was arranged by him, leaving only hundreds of thousands of defenders, which is indeed too small for a big city like Monaia. .

"It's all right, the Gaoshan Corps has called back 20 legions from the front line of the grassland, and they will be able to reach the capital next month."

"The Alpine Corps is calling back, what should the centaur do?"

Although the eastern plateau land occupied by orcs is barren compared to humans, its area is not small at all, otherwise it would not be able to support hundreds of millions of people, and naturally it would not be bordered by more than one race.

Although the enemy of the orcs is human beings, there are more than one million troops standing on the front line of Longxi Pass for a long time, but it does not mean that they have no other dangers. In the border with the centaur tribe in the north, there are many conflicts between the two tribes. Although the combat power of the centaur is not as good as that of the orc, it is better in mobility, and it is also an enemy that makes the orc a headache.

Just like the sea tribe in the south, the lizardmen in the west, trolls, ogres and other races that involve humans, the orcs are also restrained by the centaur. Now Haldane suddenly mobilized so many orcs on the front line of the grassland When the army came back, the ministers in the royal court felt that something was wrong and raised questions.

"Recently, we have reached an agreement with the centaur. The centaur should not take the opportunity to attack us. We can concentrate on dealing with humans."

"Your Majesty, centaurs often break their promises faster than we can tear up the agreement. I don't think centaurs can trust what they say. If centaurs take the opportunity to attack and millions of centaurs rush into the kingdom, the losses caused will not be huge. Smaller than a human."

The minister's quick talk even exposed the nature of the orcs who are also good at tearing up the agreement.

But the orc king Haldane shook his head on the throne.

"This time the centaur is credible, at least for a short time."

"There is no need to discuss this issue. This is a matter jointly decided by the king and the great shaman."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

In the Beastman Kingdom, Haldane's power is also not small. If he makes a decision, generally no one dares to oppose it, and with the endorsement of the great shaman who suddenly added some mysterious colors recently, the officials will no longer continue to work together. Being entangled in this issue, Haldane's order was soon carried out, and the army began to gather out of the city, each heading in different directions...

In the palace, when Haldane returned to the apse, a face incompatible with the surrounding orcs appeared in the hall, and a fair and handsome elf was standing in front of Haldane.

"Adrilo, do you know that your intelligence has made a serious mistake?"

Haldane's tone was not good. Adrilo showed a hint of impatience on his face when he heard it, and called him by his name. That is the qualification only for the Lord of the Rising Sun, but for the will of the Lord of the Rising Sun to be implemented, Adrillo still endured it, maintained his respect for Haldane, and explained:

"Your Majesty Haldane, it is absolutely true that the Golden Dragon Clan will break the contract, the human dragon knight Sol has been rejected by the Golden Dragon Clan several times in a row.

How did the giant dragons in Hunter's family come here? Even the human kingdom has not figured it out, and I am also investigating. "

Obviously, the Rising Sun Cult's hidden power in human beings is still strong, and Adrillo has obtained a lot of secret information.

"Besides, Your Majesty, you should also know that regardless of whether the Golden Dragon breaks the contract or not, you orcs cannot avoid this battle. Now that the magic power is recovering, time is no longer on your side."

"But your wrong information will cause me to misjudge the situation of the battle!"

It seemed that the worries deep in his heart had been addressed, and Haldane subconsciously raised his volume a few degrees when he retorted.

"Your Majesty, calm down, although an unexpected giant dragon appeared in the human army, the situation is still under our control.

The White Dragon Clan has officially agreed to ally with the orcs, and soon, your army will be assisted by dragons just like the human army. "

Hearing Adrilo talk about the White Dragon Clan, Haldane's expression eased a little. If it is true what Haldane said, the White Dragon Clan is willing to form an alliance with the orcs, then the next battle will be much easier.

But even though I think so in my heart, I still have to pick a few words out of my mouth.

"Although the white dragon is also a giant dragon, its combat power is much worse than that of the golden dragon. They are not necessarily the opponents of the human golden dragon."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, although the White Dragon clan is not as good as the Golden Dragon, they can send more clansmen to fight. You just need to prepare enough food for them and wait for the White Dragon to arrive."

Although Amos, the patriarch of the white dragon, took advantage of Adrillo, it is impossible for him to lead his tribe to fight for free. The minimum food needs to be provided by the orcs. The daily food intake of a white dragon is two cows. It's also a big burden on the orcs.

But as long as the Bailong clan is willing to participate in the war, this burden will be borne by gritted teeth.

"Don't worry about the food problem. Now the capital has prepared more than 5,000 yaks. If there is not enough, we can continue to recruit, but I need enough white dragons to fight against human dragon knights for me."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we all have the same goal, and I will arrange everything."

"So much the better."

Apart from discussing how to deal with humans, the two didn't have any other topics. After this topic ended, Adrilo disappeared into the palace without Haldane's opening...

After Adrillo left, an old orc came out from the back of the hall. Although he was leaning on a cane, he seemed to be in good spirits. He greeted Haldane first.

"The great shaman doesn't have to be like this, I am a junior, how can I behave like a great shaman?"

"This is the rule of the kingdom, and it is also the iron law that the shaman lineage has abided by for hundreds of years. All shamans must respect the king. Your Majesty Haldane does not need to persuade me."

Although the big shaman looked old, he performed the salute neatly and quickly stood up again.

Although Haldane said no, judging from his expression, he was quite satisfied with the great shaman's attitude.

If the great shaman mastered the ability to communicate with the ancestral spirits, and began to not simply be satisfied with the respect of status and want to seize real power, it would still be a big trouble for Haldane. Fortunately, there are quite a few great shamans.

"Your Excellency the great shaman, do you believe what the elf said just now?"

When Haldane talked with Adrillo just now, the big shaman was always in the back of the hall. Apart from protecting Haldane, of course he also heard their conversation clearly.

"Of course it's not credible, but we need them and they need us. That's enough. At least for the time being, we are a cooperative relationship."

"The magic power has been revived, even our family will eat the poison..."

"I understand, Your Excellency the Great Shaman."
