Chapter 51 Chasing the Orcs 2
When the night came again, two orc soldiers led the orc soldiers back on the road. Because the original merchant cavalry appeared nearby many times during the day, when marching at night, the Capricorn ordered the soldiers to extinguish the torches in their hands, and they only groped forward by the moonlight. Although the merchant sheep bird is not good at flying at night, it is not a joke if the merchant sheep cavalry find their traces.
In this way, the orc soldiers groped in the middle of the night, but they found that the surrounding environment became strange. It seems that there is no trace of the previous orc soldiers passing here. Have all the soldiers who fled in front of you died?
"General!" Hu Yanshi gently pulled the sleeves of the Capricorn, "We may have gone the wrong way. I haven't found any trace of the fugitive soldiers for more than an hour.
"Is it?" The Capricorn replied with some surprise. Because he had been thinking about how to fight with the original person after walking out of the forest, he didn't care about the surrounding environment. Besides, it's useless for him to care. After all, he is the chief general of the three armies and a natural nobleman. He will not understand some subtle things in the march.
"Yes! General." Hu Yanhun still whispered, "The nearby road doesn't look like someone has trampled on recently. It seems that no one usually comes to this forest.
"Order to go down and stop moving forward!" The Capricorn stood and stopped the soldiers from marching. "General Huyan, find some capable soldiers to go back and make sure that we are really going the wrong way." Then he gave an order to Hu Yanhun.
Hu Yanshi did not dare to neglect at all. He found five well-like and shrewd orc soldiers from the queue and sent them back the same way to find out. It seems that this handsome appearance is sometimes not an advantage.
Other orc soldiers sat in a circle surrounded by the serapery under the arrangement of Huyanhun. Hu Yanhun took a patrol of more than a dozen people to patrol around the orc's temporary camp. Time passed minute by minute while waiting, but the five orc soldiers who went back to explore the way did not come back until dawn.
At this time, the two people can see the surrounding scenery clearly. Here, it is full of strange trees and strange flowers. Not far from where they rested, there was also a cave that seemed to be arched from the ground, and there was a faint smoke at the entrance of the cave.
"Mist Forest!" The two of them shouted these four words almost at the same time, and the two of them stood up in surprise. Whether it is the original or orc, there is only one end to rush into the fog forest, that is, death. Now the Capricorn and his orc soldiers have gone the wrong way, and they don't know how far they have gone in the misty forest. It seems that their hope of leaving this huge forest alive has become very slim.
After dawn, the two orc soldiers gathered together, and then the two of them ordered their soldiers to follow the same road. At the same time, they asked the soldiers to be 5 meters apart from each other during the march. In this way, a team of orcs with only more than 150 people can travel in the misty forest for more than a hundred miles. Although this strange team type will be difficult to get help from its companions when a single soldier in the team is attacked, it can reduce the possibility of the whole team getting lost.
Now, the merchant sheep cavalry led by Zhang Zhentian, Yao Xiu and Jiang Xiang have flown to the edge of the orc grassland. Naturally, they found no trace of orc soldiers escaping here. Looking from the edge of the forest to the grassland, it is now white. It seems that the climate of the grassland is colder than that in Yanzhou. It has snowed a few days ago. The white color is naturally the snow flowing down.
"Great! I want to play." Yao Xiu saw the snow on the grassland, and she seemed to have returned to her child's naughty behavior. Yes, a 17- or 18-year-old woman is a big girl who has not grown up.
Zhang Zhentian looked at Yao Xiu's appearance and smiled. He ignored Yao Xiu's nonsense, but arranged Jiang Xiang to arrange people along the edge of the grassland and forest to look for signs of orcs' escape.
In the dense forest, the Shang sheep cavalry led by Tian Zheng and Tao Zhu flew back to the sky. They searched carefully nearby, but there was still no movement of the orcs. At this time, Tian Zheng couldn't help feeling a little anxious, "General Tao, we won't search the wrong direction, will we?"
"I won't get it!" Tao Zhu shook his head, "I came to this place many years ago. You also saw it in the air yesterday. There are also several foggy forests. If the orcs do not walk from the edge of the foggy forest, they will come out of this vast jungle.
At this time, the soldiers with orcs were still struggling in the fog forest. They did not go well on the way back. First, the group strayed into the territory of the man-eating tree, and then they were chased by saber-toothed tigers. After these changes, there are only 40 or 50 orc soldiers following the Capricorn and Huyan Hunting. However, fortunately, the Capricorn and his soldiers finally reached the edge of the misty forest. They can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, as the saying goes, good things do not come in pairs, and disasters do not come alone. As soon as the two people came out of the fog forest, the singing of the commercial sheep bird came from the sky. Then, a group of merchant sheep cavalry appeared near the orc soldiers. This time, the Capricorn and Huyanshou were exhausted, and they had no way to avoid the attack of the merchant sheep cavalry.
"Lord Tian, General Tao! Look at it." The leading merchant cavalry found the orcs in the jungle. He pointed to the orcs below and shouted, "It's like the army of the orcs!"
"That's right!" Tao Zhu urged the merchant sheep bird under his body, and he came closer to him, "It's a Capricorn! The carbine is here! Kill everyone!"
"Kill!" Tian Zheng rode the Shang sheep bird closely behind Tao Zhu. He listened to Tao Zhu's words and immediately issued an order to attack the Shang sheep cavalry. And the two Shang sheep cavalry before and after them got orders and rushed down on the orc soldiers together.
"General! Bird..." The orc soldier in charge of looking found that the merchant sheep cavalry was rushing towards him, and he also shouted harshly. Just don't wait for him to finish. A column of water flew to his head and neck, and then his head and neck were blown off by the column of water, and then his head fell to the ground.
"Defense!" Hu Yanshi pulled out his sword, and he pointed to the sky and ordered loudly, "Block them!"
The orc soldiers listened to Hu Yanshi's order, and they each held their own blades to form a defensive position. Although these orc soldiers are exhausted, they have not forgotten their duties. They still protected the goat behind them, and then raised the blade to the sky to prevent the merchant cavalry from diving down.
It's just that although the orcs plan is good, the merchant sheep cavalry is not so easy to deal with. The merchant sheep cavalry passed by the sky. The cavalry leaned on the back of the bird, and then the spear in their hands protrude hard. At the same time, the merchant sheep bird's mouth sprayed a column of water and shot directly at the orc soldiers. These orc soldiers were sprayed upside down by the water column of the merchant sheep and birds. How could they have the spirit to deal with the spears in the hands of the merchant sheep cavalry? The Shang sheep cavalry killed and injured half of the orc soldiers in just one charge.
"General, let's go!" Hu Yanshou commanded the orc soldiers to defend against the attack of the merchant sheep cavalry, while shouting to the caravan behind him, "Go quickly! Soldiers! Take the general away!" When there is an emergency, the deputy general often sacrifices his life and death more than the main general. Because at these times, people who must die are more afraid of death than those who can die.
The three surviving soldiers listened to Hu Yanhun's words, and they couldn't help pulling up the Capricorn and leaving. At this time, whether you are the prince or the commander of the three armies, the people around them will not care about your identity. They just want to save your life.
"Hear!" Hu Yanhun listened to the movement after his birth, and he still commanded the remaining soldiers to continue to resist. However, this time he also failed to escape the attack of the merchant sheep cavalry. A spear pierced his body. Huyanhun fell to the ground and died on the spot.
