Heart of Empire Chapter 152: Big Fish

On January 15th, the plan to divide the troops had already started for three days.

Dane doesn't care about others, he feels like a fish in water. During these three days, his rangers played a very important role, and found out four or five orc herdsmen strongholds. The scale of these orc strongholds is very small, ranging from a few dozen people to as many as a hundred people.

When he encountered such an orc stronghold, he was not polite at all, and ate all of them. As for the other big ones, they haven't come across them within the action range of the troops he leads for the time being, and even if they do, he won't be able to handle them.

Clearing up these small herdsmen settlements would bring him very little war points. But what is more satisfying is that since the troops he pulls out to participate in the battle now are all under his own power, and there is no such thing as an allied army, so the war points gained from fighting the enemy are not will be discounted accordingly.

In this way, without discounts, even if the number of war points is small, the accumulation is quite satisfactory.

After only three days of cleaning operations, he was already far from the 500 war points needed to ascend the second floor, and now he is only sixty or seventy points away.

This gap, even in this small-scale battle, is only one or two games.

Now he can't wait to see the lineup of the new system module Heart of the Empire, and he can't wait to go to the second floor of the Empire Tower to see if it has a different style up. Dane, who was feeling a little impatient, gave Patience a clear order, asking her ranger troops to step up their investigation of the surrounding situation and quickly find a few more orc strongholds. Even, he has already contacted Sir Marin's Sword Falcon Squadron, asking these sky knights to help him find the attack target.

However, next, his luck was a bit bad.

Perhaps it was because his team's actions to clean up the orc stronghold during these three days were too crazy. It may also be because the impact of the actions of the Eastern Expeditionary Army has expanded to a certain extent, and the results of various investigations are not very optimistic.

Although, for the time being, there is not a large group of orc troops targeting them, but it is already difficult to find orc settlements around the range of action. Some orc gathering spots in the surrounding areas have either been visited by him or other troops of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, or those orcs may have received the news in advance and have moved away and fled.

This made Dane feel a little depressed.

Just as he was thinking about whether to run a little further to expand the scope of cleaning, there was a cry of eagles from the sky. Looking up, I saw two sword falcon knights flying from afar.

Dane raised his hand and ordered the marching troops to temporarily stop moving. He wanted to hear if these birds in the sky would bring him any valuable information.

A moment later, the sword falcon descended from the sky. A few mercenaries who had already prepared, hurriedly carried a few large leather buckets filled with raw meat, and sent them to the mouths of these falcons. The raw meat contained in these leather barrels comes from the corpses of slain orcs.

Dane hadn't been perverted enough to let his soldiers eat the flesh of the humanoid race. At least, although their current logistical supply pressure was very high, it wasn't so big that they needed to eat human flesh raw. But if he prepares some chopped orc corpses for these big carnivorous birds, he still has no psychological pressure.

The two sword falcons honestly used their long beaks to pick up a few pieces of flesh and then swallowed them. They looked very hungry and thirsty.

Two knights in light armor jumped off the back of the big bird and walked quickly to Dane's side. During the previous patrol, an orc transport team was discovered!",

"Transportation team?" Dane's expression became a little puzzled, and then gradually showed excitement: "Is it really a transportation team? Did you read it correctly?"

The two looked at each other and said: "It should be right. There are more than two hundred of them, and more than a hundred of them are not seen with weapons. They should be the hard labor of orcs. Pack lizards are pulling a lot of luggage. Since there is no way to get close, we don’t know what those luggage are, but they seem to be quite a lot. In addition, in addition to more than a hundred hard workers and a dozen wild soil pack lizards, there are About a hundred orc warriors in full armor seem to be acting as guards."

Dane clapped his hands and said, "That should be right, this looks like an orc transport team! We caught a big fish this time!"

The expression on his face was a little excited beyond words. He continued: "Both of you, the information you brought is very valuable, but now is not the time to rest. I hope that you will hurry up and keep an eye on that convoy, and come back at any time and pass on detailed information to me~ IndoMTL.com~ I will also send my rangers to watch those guys, please don't let them escape!"

"Okay, Captain Dane, don't worry, you will fulfill your mission!"

"It's not too late, after your mounts have replenished food and water, let's go."

"Well, we will go right away."

Later, after seeing off the two Sword Falcon knights, Dane immediately called Delin, Maca, and Patience over: "Hurry up and get the troops ready and set off due south! If you live with a big fish, you will have a delicious meal!"

"Good!"

……

The transport team that will appear here, Dane guessed, must be delivering supplies to the orc coalition forces below the Beast Blood Castle.

He didn't have any basis for making such a guess, but at this point in time, with such a large transportation volume, and the guarding force of a whole centurion, if it was anything else, he wouldn't believe it.

Regardless of whether it is the transport team of the orc army or not, there is no harm in intercepting it! After this battle is over, not to mention the soldiers brought over from Cormyr under him, for a long period of time, they don't have to worry about not being in a hurry, even for the entire Eastern Expeditionary Army. It's a great addition.

Of course, with the supplies that are about to arrive, Dane will definitely supplement his team more. I believe that others can't say anything.

What's more, judging from the estimated number of enemies and the lack of reinforcements to share the war points this time, after this battle, he will almost certainly be able to meet the 500 war points required to climb to the second floor of the Empire Tower Requirements ~IndoMTL.com~Welcome all book lovers to visit and read, the latest, fastest, and hottest serial works are all available at ~IndoMTL.com~Mobile phone users please go to read.
