Heart of Empire Chapter 169: Worry

On the night of January 17th, in Morno's big tent, several leaders of the Eastern Expeditionary Army were having a heated discussion. The content of this discussion was about whether to take the initiative to meet the 4,000 orc army.

In fact, if you can pass the fight, then you must fight first. But the problem now is that the risk of fighting is too great, and the strength of the two sides is quite different, especially when considering that 80% of the orc army is behind, what if they can't win the battle, or win the loss? If it is too big, if they let other people's army catch up, then their army, which is alone behind the enemy, is in danger of being wiped out.

After discussing for a long time, there was no result. Now, the Eastern Expedition Army has too little information. The lack and insufficiency of strategic intelligence have made it difficult for high-level officials to make effective judgments. Even Dane couldn't figure out whether to fight or flee, and if he wanted to avoid the edge temporarily, where would he go.

But soon, the news brought by a sword falcon knight quickly made all the leaders of the Eastern Expeditionary Army make a unified decision: kill the orc army!

This sword falcon knight who just arrived does not belong to any of the sword falcon squadron brought by Marin, and is a completely unfamiliar face. But Marin knew him, this guy was a soldier from another squadron, and that squadron should have stayed with Governor Oze all the time.

The Sword Falcon Knight, who was supposed to be in Beast Blood Castle but appeared here again at this moment, came with the order of Governor Ozer: "The orc army has retreated, and Governor Ozer is leading 20,000 soldiers. Two thousand Schindler's soldiers are in pursuit. Your lord governor requires you to intercept the enemy's retreating vanguard and slow down the enemy's retreat, so as to gain the opportunity to annihilate and defeat the orc army!"

As soon as the news came out, it was like throwing a boulder on a calm lake, and it stirred up waves in an instant!

After hearing the news, Morno and the others had no reason to stop here and let the orcs pass.

Now, the situation is relatively clear. It seems that the four thousand orcs should be the vanguard of the orc army retreating. The responsibilities they shouldered are likely to be tit-for-tat with Governor Ou Ze's order to the Eastern Expeditionary Army-eliminate the Eastern Expeditionary Army that is likely to block the way ahead!

"It seems that we cannot escape this battle," Chapple said.

"Then let's fight!" Redis looked very excited.

They looked excited, but Dane didn't dare to be as happy as them. He frowned tightly, thinking about the gains and losses of this battle.

This is a vanguard army of orcs. Will destroying them really have a good effect on intercepting the orc army? There are a total of 4,000 people. After destroying this vanguard army, how much strength is left in the Eastern Expeditionary Army? What will the orc army that is still on the way to retreat do to stop it?

Dane expressed deep doubts about this. He looked up, only to see Morno completely excited.

After thinking about it, he decided to persuade him: "General, I think... we should not make such a rash decision."

Before Moore could speak, Marin beside him was not happy. The sword falcon knight had just accepted Dane's life-saving grace two days ago. If it weren't for Cecilia's magic, he would have been flying with his broken arm for several hours, and his wound had not been treated at all. Just the loss of blood was enough to kill him.

Logically speaking, this old knight should be very grateful to Dane. In fact, this is exactly the case. He said earlier that when the war is over, he must thank Dane well.

However, when Dane showed disagreement with the attack of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, Marin was also the first to jump out and choke him:

"How could this be a 'reckless' decision? This is an order given to us by the Governor of Ozer. It is for us to completely wipe out the threat of the orcs in exchange for ten years of stability on the eastern border of Schindler. Opportunity!"

This is absolutely true. If the 20,000 orcs who were originally under the Beast Blood Fort were all wiped out, Ou Ze could continue to move eastward and expand his actual control territory by hundreds of kilometers. The three major clans of Heiyan, Broken Tooth, and Rib, which lost 20,000 main forces, have no power to resist the attack of humans.

Of course, the land of the Eastern Wasteland is even more barren than Schindler, and it is full of alien races. After a good fight, the control is not so easy. But even if those lands are not needed, just eliminating the vitality of 20,000 orcs is enough to greatly weaken the strength of the three major clans in the westernmost part of the wasteland and closest to Schindler, and they will not be able to recover for at least ten years. .

This is very important for Oze, who will compete with Governor Conley of the Lost City for the hegemony of Schindler~IndoMTL.com~ After all, Oze's main sphere of influence lies in On the eastern border of Schindler.

He has been dragged on the eastern border by the orcs of the three major clans for many years. He has not solved the serious problems of this group of confidantes, and he has not been able to spare 100% of his energy to participate in the hegemony struggle within Schindler. Now, in front of him is such a great opportunity to fight for ten years, how could he miss it?

This is a question of the **** deciding the head, although Marin is now fighting side by side with the Eastern Expeditionary Army, and has also received Dane's life-saving grace. However, no matter what, he is still the direct subordinate of Governor Oze, and all his considerations must be from the perspective of Governor Oze.

But Dane is different. Although his interests are very similar to those of Morno and Governor Oze, and generally in the same direction, they are different after all. The most important point is that Ou Ze doesn't care if the Eastern Expeditionary Army is wiped out. Anyway, there is no one of his soldiers except for a sword falcon squadron; Morno is not very worried that his army will be wiped out. What will happen, even if that is the case, his losses will be great, but he still has an army of less than 2,000 people in White Wolf Castle, and as long as this battle is won, Ou Ze is not a person who will kill a donkey , the subsequent supplementary benefits are enough to make up for Morno's loss.

But if Dane finished fighting all these armies in his hand, he would become a polished commander.

The little wealth he has in his hands now has been accumulated little by little over the past few months, how could he be willing to throw it all here?
