Chapter 757 Premeditated

After the army entered the city, it can be said that the Hippo man who fell near the city gate was discovered immediately.

"died?"

Hu Xie frowned.

Rayong, who came up after that, quickly noticed something was wrong.

"No, there are several fatal wounds on this hippo man. The wounds are obviously not caused by your claws. They should be weapons such as spears."

It was said by Rayong.

Hu Jie also obviously noticed the wounds on the hippopotamus.

Then there was a sneer.

He probably knew what was going on.

In the orc world, hippos are not only tyrannical and threatening, but also notoriously irritable.

And those gnolls in the city are notorious for their vengeance...

In this case, a badly wounded Hippo faces off against a group of vengeful gnolls.

What happened in the city at that time can be imagined.

However, Hujie obviously does not have any sympathy for him.

After entering the city, Du Yuanzhi signaled to the elf priests to treat the wounds for the wounded.

It was also called Guo Zhen to bring several teams of human soldiers to gather those human slaves in the city.

Meanwhile, the other end.

After exiting the city from the other side of the gate.

The orc army quickly fled westward.

There is a huge threat of the Westward Expedition Army behind him.

Let them not dare to stop at all.

For fear that the other party will chase you up.

So they all tried their best to escape there.

maintain this efficiency.

Soon, the remaining orc army completely fled.

Looking back.

Looking at the orc city within the field of vision, there is only a palm-sized orc city left.

A gnoll breathed a sigh of relief.

After running so far, it is impossible for the other party to catch up with them in a short time, right?

Think it's safe.

Just when they thought so.

Behind the mound bunkers on both sides, a rain of arrows suddenly flew out.

The sudden attack completely caught them off guard.

until they come back to their senses.

The rain of arrows that filled the sky had already fallen directly.

Absolutely unavoidable.

The terrified shouts turned into shrill screams in an instant.

A round of arrow rain directly caused another wave of clear casualties to the remaining orcs.

However, the four hundred fox guerrillas who were standing here, waiting to ambush them, obviously would not stop their offensive just like that.

At this moment, the fox guerrillas scattered behind the mounds on both sides can be said to be firing frantically.

In a panic, the remaining gnolls and wild boars began to flee.

The fox guerrillas did not choose to pursue.

Instead, they continued to rely on the terrain of the mound to shoot and kill those orcs who were still within their range.

This situation is undoubtedly a good thing for the group of orcs who successfully escaped the range of the bow and arrow.

They didn't mean to turn around and save their compatriots.

In their view, their own life is the most important thing.

It's business to run away quickly.

But unexpectedly at this time.

A figure passed quickly in front of him.

Then, accompanied by a burst of staggered sword light.

The head of a gnoll was suddenly thrown high.

I saw at this moment, a team of swift wolf warriors holding double knives blocked the road!

Between the two knives in the hands.

With the unique swift and violent play of the swift wolf warriors.

Quickly intercepted the orcs who were trying to escape.

It was a premeditated ambush.

Du Yuanzhi, who owns the map of orc power in the west, was determined from the beginning.

If these orcs were to flee, they would definitely flee in this direction.

So before he officially launched the frontal attack.

They ordered 400 fox guerrillas and 300 swift wolf warriors to transfer to this side in advance.

Intercept any orc troops that may appear.

At the same time, there is also a detail that he did not set the ambush site near the city gate.

But deliberately pulled a distance away.

Just to let the group of orcs fleeing for their lives run away.

It's better to just run straight to the point of exhaustion.

That way, until they find themselves in the trap.

Then you can't even try to escape.

There is no doubt that this wave of Du Yuanzhi's advance arrangement was a success.

Facing this wave of ambush.

The orc troops, whose stamina has been exhausted, are inseparable from each other, and they are completely powerless to resist.

The orcs who escaped here were killed by the swift wolf warriors and the fox guerrillas in a short period of time!

Then after confirming that there is no live port.

The two troops quickly gathered the corpses together.

Then pour in the kerosene and burn it off.

Standing on the wall of the orc town.

Looking at the smoke rising in the distance.

The corners of Du Yuanzhi's mouth twitched slightly.

He knew that the wave of ambush he arranged in advance was a success.

"Counselor Du, the number of human races in the city has been counted, and there are a total of 3,372 people."

Guo Zhen frowned, walked over and said.

As a small city, the number of human slaves in this city is more than he expected.

Although their Western Expedition Army went out this time, they brought enough food.

But it was not something they could afford to have more than 3,000 more mouths all of a sudden.

Du Yuanzhi obviously knew what Guo Zhen was worried about.

Just listen to his unhurried speech.

"Calculate the time, the next batch of grain transportation teams should be halfway there. When the time comes, let the grain transportation team bring these 3,000 people back to Wanjie Civilization."

Having said that, Du Yuanzhi took a breath.

"But before that, we have to write a pigeon biography to report the situation here to Your Majesty."

The news of the first victory of the Western Expedition Army and the occupation of the next orc city was quickly delivered to Luo Ji.

Although this was only an expected victory, Luo Ji was in a pretty good mood when he learned of this information.

Not to mention the achievement of occupying an orc city and at the same time annihilating the garrisoned orc army, which also increased his various special points.

Of course, it's just a miserable five or six o'clock.

But better than nothing!

At the same time, more importantly, this battle report also contains a lot of information about the orc forces in the west.

For example, the Boar and the Hippo.

This fully shows that the orc forces in the west are not a single orc tribe.

As for whether they joined together to form an alliance.

Or if it was annexed one by one by that powerful orc tribe, then it is unknown.

Just when Luo Ji was thinking about it.

Zhang Tang, the commander of the Anbu Department of the Mingjing Division, entered the palace for an audience.

"Wei Chen Zhang Tang, see Your Majesty!"

In response to this, Luo Ji asked Zhang Tang straight to the point when he signaled that Zhang Tang should not be polite...

"Zhang Tang, your interview this time, is the result of what you explained to you before?"

"Report to Your Majesty, all the information from the mouths of those gnoll captives is here."

While speaking, Zhang Tang presented a report respectfully.

On this side, it was a bit of a surprise. The efficiency of the gnoll captives being escorted all the way back was not very high.

This has come and gone, which has led to the completion of the interrogation now.

But no matter what, what should be asked is still asked.
