Heart of Empire Chapter 189: Should it be yours or yours

Dane just said his guess, when Chapple continued to ask some questions, he never mentioned it. ≧1 novel﹤≦≦≤≦≤

Speaking of which, that's enough, but if it goes on, it's a bit too much.

Being silent, Chapple could only leave alone.

Dane didn't get up to see him off, he was sitting in his tent, thinking about something.

Marin said something to Morno, which Dane was almost 100% sure of.

Morno has no brains, if there is nothing to attract him, how could he lead his troops to die? These 1,500 soldiers are all elite forces under his command, and they are his wealth accumulated in White Wolf Fort. If it is all lit up, it will have a great impact on him. At the very least, if the strength of his subordinates is directly reduced by half, what else can he use to suppress Ma Long in Shawan Harbor?

Inevitably, Marin...or Governor Oze must have promised him conditions that were far more attractive than more than a thousand elite soldiers, so that he could be willing to spend his money in exchange for . As for what this condition is, Dane doesn't know. Maybe Sandy Bay Harbor? But not only that. For Morno, after the war was won, with the support of Governor Oze, who was free from shackles, Shawan Port was almost guaranteed. The Shawan Port is likely to be only a part of their agreement, and there are other more important interests, which Dane can't guess.

Of course General Morno would not tell his subordinates about this. Having said that, how can the soldiers and officers be sent to die? After rushing up, it was his subordinates who died, not himself. A fourteenth-level barbaric warlord, is he afraid that he will not be able to withdraw from the battlefield?

But for those soldiers, most of them will be more or less ill.

It is somewhat cruel to do so. It's not easy for Dane to say anything, the most important thing is to protect oneself wisely. All he could do was keep himself from going to his death, Morno's soldiers were not under his control, and he couldn't control them either.

Since Morno made this kind of task that requires his subordinates to do this kind of task that requires their lives to complete in exchange for sufficient benefits, what else can Dane do if he doesn't do this? Shouting out all those guesses in your heart? Give me a break.

Dane saw the tricks between Morneau and Marin. He didn't say it clearly. This was the tacit understanding between the two; tacit understanding.

The reason is very simple, Morno wants to exchange the lives of his own soldiers for better conditions, that is his own business, don't drag Dane. Dane didn't have that kind of selfless devotion of "you take the benefits, and send me to die". In the previous battles, his performance and achievements were enough to make up for Morno's promise to Han Haibao, and he didn't need to do more.

In fact, he was a bit unhappy about being a reserve army. After all, the reserve army said that the risk was not high, but there were still some.

However, now that Chapple came here personally, he still felt a little bit unbearable.

This guy was obviously kept in the dark, and Moore certainly didn't confide in him. It is also because of Chapple and those soldiers who, like Chapple, don't know that they have been sold by Moreno, Dane is more or less sympathetic. So, now I tried to mention something cryptically to Chapple. As for whether he can understand it, and more importantly, whether he can come up with a corresponding solution, it is none of his business.

…

At noon of the next day, after a night of carnival and a morning of rest, the Eastern Expeditionary Army was ready to go out, and under the dry wind and winter sunshine, we started to head towards Shizuipo in the west go ahead.

Shizuipo is a big pit, anyone who wants to fight against the orc army there is a ****. However, after all, it was the only way for the orc army to retreat, and approaching Shizuipo was the best way to find the orc army. Moreover, if you don't fight a blocking battle there, you can send a small number of troops to slow down the enemy's attack speed, and it can also be used as an early warning. Why not do it?

After two days of marching, on the night of the 22nd, the Eastern Expeditionary Army had already arrived at a place 20 kilometers away from Shizuipo.

There was no further advance. As expected by Dane, Morno decisively sent some soldiers to prepare to establish an outpost at Shizuipo.

The army sent out first encountered the actions of a small-scale orc troop in Shizuipo. The enemy is not stupid either. It is impossible not to send people to grab such an important military site. There are even quite a few bipedal dragon cavalry cruising in the sky.

When this happened, Morneau decisively dispatched a force of several hundred men in the morning of the second day, led by Chapple. The Falcon Knights were also sent up.

In the afternoon, news came from the front that the preemption of Shizuipo had been completed, and Chapple had already started the work of establishing an outpost. Moreover, the sword falcon knights have also driven away the enemy's wyvern, and found that the orc army is about two to three days away from Shizuipo.

Morno strictly ordered Chapple to establish at least three lines of defense in Shizuipo to delay the advance of the orc army. And he himself also mobilized the army, and began to prepare for some harassment and attack plans when the orc troops passed through Shizuipo.

When planning the battle, the half-orc warlord also wanted to invite Dane to come over and ask him to follow suit. According to Morno, it’s all right if you don’t work hard, you can always use your brain, right?

Unfortunately, Dane has no interest in this.

He rejected Morneau's invitation ~IndoMTL.com~ and replied that he also needs to make preparations and plans for support and response, and he is also very busy with work.

Morno didn't say much, but that night, when Dane led himself and the troops of the Pure Sword Mercenary Group towards the south, and was about to move further away from the predetermined battlefield, he personally came out to see him off.

"I wish the general a successful victory." Dane said this before parting.

Others heard it normally, but Morno could hear some irony from it. With a sullen face, he said, "It all depends on Governor Oze, we are just cooperating."

"Hehe." Dane smiled, and suddenly said again: "There won't be any changes in Hanhai Castle, right?"

"No, you deserve it, it should be yours or yours."

"Then I'm relieved."
