*****************
Wulitan and Nepangu also heard the shouts of killing coming from a distance. Although the eyesight of the hippopotamus and the rhino man were not very good, their hearing was fine.
There seems to be a problem in the mountain town of Napal, thirty miles away!
I looked up at the sky and saw that it was already three in the sky. It was the time when the soldiers were having breakfast, and the camp was very lively.
They are the orc army stationed closest to the mountain city of Napal. They come from the Talati Grassland, which is a prairie in the southwest of the Napal Grassland. It is like spring all year round, but it is also dry all year round.
Therefore, they are more accustomed to hot and arid climates, but they don't like the cold and wet weather here on the Napal grassland.
Because of this, they were placed at the forefront. On the one hand, the alliance allowed them to familiarize themselves with the climate here as quickly as possible, and on the other hand, because they were larger and consumed more energy.
Therefore, arrange for them to be at the place closest to the castle and set off at the earliest, so as to save them some energy and save some food and fodder for the alliance.
At this time, following the sound of the wind, a real cry of killing could be faintly heard from the direction of Napal Mountain City, which made the hippo man Ulitan and the rhinoceros man Nipangu gradually look serious.
The hippopotamus had never fought against the Death God of Riverrun, but the rhinoceros man had been defeated by Xiao Feng. Earlier when the ape-man general Shantali led his troops to besiege Riverrun, he had led a team of rhinoceros men.
The Rhinoceros heavy armored infantry once rushed under the city wall and caused a certain amount of damage to the defenders of Riverrun City, but in the end they retreated under the cover of Xiao Feng's machine gun and artillery fire.
There were many casualties, so the Rhinoceros were deeply impressed by Xiao Feng, the God of Death in Riverrun.
Before setting off this time, Nipangu, the leading general of the Rhinoceros, personally questioned many Rhinoceros soldiers who had participated in that campaign, and carefully inquired about the battlefield situation at that time, as well as the detailed battle process.
He also has an understanding of the Death God's combat power and trump card in Riverrun. The Hippopotamus tribe and the Rhinoceros tribe are also fellow villagers. Although they are not close relatives, the relationship between the two parties is not bad.
They were stationed in a camp again, so Nipangu did not hide the situation he knew, and shared the news he learned with Ulitan. During this time, the two groups camped together. The two of them usually discussed it if they had nothing to do.
What should I do with the Death God in Riverrun?
Unexpectedly, I seem to have encountered it today!
The soldiers below did not know what was happening in the mountain town of Napal to the north. They all gathered together happily to enjoy breakfast.
Wulitan and Nipangu were looking anxiously to the north. Behind their camp was the camp of the Golden Eagle tribe. They had just seen several golden eagles flying over their camp. Apparently, the Golden Eagle tribe
The leader Zhuolu also noticed that something was wrong with the situation in Napal Mountain City in the north, and had already sent people to investigate.
"Forget it, let's eat first! Anyway, Zhuolu has sent people there, and news should come back soon. Besides, that mountain city is the home of Duhu, and you know those people in the Tiger tribe are not just cats and dogs.
, if any human being provokes them, it will definitely be asking for trouble."
Wu Litan looked to the north for a long time, but couldn't see anything. The hippo people's eyesight was not good, so he simply turned his head and persuaded Nipangu to eat first.
The eyesight of the rhinoceros people was not much better than that of the hippo people. When Nipangu thought about it, Wulitan's words made sense. Those guys from the tiger tribe were vegetarians, and even the lion people were afraid of them.
With their general Du Hu stationed in the Napal Mountain City, even if the mountain city is attacked by someone, it should not be unable to defend it. After all, there are 4,000 Tiger clan members in the city.
Nipangu simply turned around and sat across from Wulitan. After a while, his men brought them pots of sumptuous breakfast, and the two began to feast on it.
After eating, Nipangu ordered someone to bring two jars of fine wine, and he and Wulitan exchanged cups and drank.
While they were drinking happily, there was a noise outside their tent. Just when Nipangu was about to ask what was going on, he saw someone suddenly opening the tent from the outside, and then the leader of the Golden Eagles, Zhuo Lu, walked away with a sullen face.
Come in.
"You guys really know how to enjoy yourself. You started drinking early in the morning? Are you completely ignoring what's going on in the north?"
The Golden Eagle Tribe, the Hippopotamus Tribe, and the Rhino Tribe are all noble tribes in the Orc Alliance, and their statuses are equal. Therefore, although Zhuolu's attitude and tone were somewhat rude, Nipangu and Wulitan could not be angry.
Drinking in the military camp early in the morning is indeed their fault.
"What? What happened over there in the Napal Mountain City? Aren't there lone tigers from the Tiger Tribe guarding there? Are those humans so bold that they dare to attack the city? Besides, aren't there a lot of road construction teams who came forward?
Well? Didn't they send back any news?"
It is precisely because of this series of arrangements that Wulitan and Nipangu are so confident. They simply do not believe that humans can descend from the sky and appear directly in front of the gate of the Napal Mountain City to start attacking the city.
"It seems that you really don't know? Well, let me tell you, Napar Mountain City is finished, and has been captured by the Death God of Riverrun City! Duhu and his Tiger Tribe soldiers are also finished..."
"Wow!"
Before Zhuolu, the golden eagle man, could finish speaking, Nipangu and Wulitan stood up in shock. Because of their excessive movements, they even smashed the dining table in front of them and all the plates and bowls on it.
One place.
"What did you say?"
"I said that Napal Mountain City is finished. It was captured by the God of Death in Riverrun City. All the weapons and materials we had stored in the mountain city in the early stage are finished!"
Zhuolu, the golden eagle man, shouted loudly. Nipangu and Wulitan immediately changed their expressions. The little wine they had just drank turned into sweat: "Is this true?"
"How can it be false? The Golden Eagle I sent to investigate happened to bring back Duhu's second son Gu Lijia."
"Where is he? Come up and take a look."
Nepangu shouted, if the mountain city is really lost, then they will be in big trouble. They have stored military supplies and food for more than half a year. If they all fall into the hands of humans, then why are they fighting?
Even if they could reach the foot of Qukai City, the siege would only last a few days before they would have to retreat due to hunger.
Soon the embarrassed Gu Lijia was brought up. With a crying voice, he introduced the situation in the city to the generals present. Nipangu, Wulitan, and Zhuolu all looked pale after hearing this.
.
This Death God of Riverrun was too powerful and courageous. With only a few men, he attacked overnight. Not only did he defeat the road construction team in front, but he also reached the base of Napar Mountain City.
Attack the city directly at dawn, and according to what Gu Lijia said, the God of Death in Riverrun City also trained a fierce cavalry team to come out. Even the warriors of the Tiger Tribe were attacked by these human cavalry without preparation.
Beaten to pieces.
This guy managed to escape from the mountain city with great difficulty, and his eldest brother and father were said to have been trapped inside the mountain city.
It was already like this, and the three leaders could no longer shirk. They immediately notified the tribes behind them, and notified the high priest who came with the alliance this time.
The high priest sent by the alliance this time is the highest commander of the alliance, and the high priest has the highest status in the alliance. At the beginning, the Orc Alliance was under the joint alliance of the Mancha Sect.
was just established.
The Holy See of Mancha is the core organization of power of the Orc Alliance and their supreme leader!
This time to conquer the God of Death in Riverrun City, the Holy See of Mancha specially sent a high priest and seven red-robed elders!
If something like this had happened before, Ulitan, Nipangu, and Zolu would definitely have worked hard and would not have taken the lead in the charge, but this time the Holy See sent a high priest.
And this high priest Zhuo Tuo has always been famous for his military skills and strict military management. If you play tricks in front of him, you will often be seen through at a glance. In that case, the end will be tragic.
Therefore, the three leaders did not dare to neglect, and while notifying other tribes and the high priest behind them, they immediately ordered their troops and horses, quickly left the camp, and rushed straight to the Napal Mountain City in the north.
Hippopotamus and rhinoceros seem to be bulky, but if they charge really fast, they are actually not slow, at least much faster than humans, and their endurance is not as weak as imagined.
They can even run continuously for an hour at a constant speed. Because of this speed, they are the most ferocious killers on the African grasslands in the modern world.
Far more people die each year in the mouths of hippos and at the feet of rhinos than do lions.
Ulitan and Nepangu each ordered two thousand soldiers, armed only with swords and guns, and quickly headed north. The armor was handed over to carriages driven by human slaves to follow them.
The golden eagle Zhuolu also ordered three hundred golden eagles to protect the team.
The thirty-mile journey might take humans half a day, but the orcs who were going all out only took more than an hour to cover more than half of it.
The mountain city in the distance was already clearly visible. Wulitan and Nipangu became more and more nervous, and they began to call the soldiers to line up and put on their armor.
With the help of human slaves, more than four thousand soldiers began to put on their armor. But halfway through, they heard a strange roar in the air. Everyone looked up and saw a black dot flying from the direction of Napal Mountain City.
come over.
The golden eagle man who had been circling above his head was at a loss when he saw the black spot. He obviously didn't know what it was, but soon the leader of the team came with a scream and led a team of five golden eagles.
The eagle went up to meet him.
Wulitan and Nipangu who were underground raised their hands to cover their brows and looked into the sky in the distance.
Suddenly a series of strange "thud, thud, thud" sounds came into their ears. They chopped down the black figure and sprayed out streaks of red fire. The five golden eagles that came forward didn't even have time to scream, and they just jumped out of the way.
Chapter completed!
