Warhammer in a box

Chapter 193 Ogre

Tien, Ferrel and Bourne were sitting in the house that the dead prince called a palace. It was at most a simple two-story building made of stone, but the huts outside the team made of rags, wood or animal skins were indeed much more luxurious.

"Tien, why did you come to the Border Prince's territory?" Bourne asked Tien.

"My Lord, I committed a crime in Tyrell. I had no choice but to flee here to survive. After all, no country would want to come here to arrest people."

After hearing this, Bourne didn't ask him what he had done specifically.

"Tyrell, the country that is also made up of many duchies?"

"Yes, sir."

The country of Tyrell is more loosely organized than the Empire and Bretonnia. It can be called a country, but in fact it is more like a federation of checks and balances.

There are republics and principalities.

Moreover, this country is located near the Skaven capital of the ratmen. After the ratmen decided to come to the ground completely, this country was the first to be destroyed.

"Tell me more about the situation nearby, Teen."

"Lord Bourne, there are probably three more duchies near us."

"Three?!"

"Two of the three duchies are not much different from ours, and even have smaller populations. The only exception is Akendorf, which is now ruled by Lord Durant and has a population of at least 10,000."

Ferrer and Byrne looked at each other after hearing the number.

It is obviously impossible for these hundred people to directly occupy a place with tens of thousands of people.

"Tien, what about the combat effectiveness of Akendorf's weapons and equipment?"

"Lord Bourne, Akendorf's location is very special. They are close to the badlands. Although I have not seen it with my own eyes, I heard that their soldiers are very brave. After all, they have to face attacks from the badlands orcs from time to time. You know, these disgusting guys only know how to fight. Of course! Those Akendorf ladies are definitely not as good as you and your soldiers!"

"Okay, stop complimenting me so much. Go out and stay here. I won't treat you unfairly."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

After Tien left, Bourne and Ferrer began to discuss the next plan.

"Bourne, at least we've made a good start now. I'll take some people to Akendorf tomorrow to investigate and see what's going on. If we can really kill that lord and replace him like we did here, we can save a lot of effort."

"Well, that's settled then. Brother Ferrell, please contact Terra and ask when the follow-up support will arrive. I still feel that our progress is a little slow."

However, just as the two were discussing, Tien, who had just left, came back.

"Lord Bourne! Lord Ferrell! Come out and take a look!"

"what's up?"

At this time, Ferrer's communication device also rang.

"Captain Ferrell! It's the Ogre!"

"Ogre?!"

Bourne and Ferrell stood up and walked towards the wall. They quickly climbed up the wall and looked outside. Sure enough, there were 20 humanoid creatures that were much taller than the trolls. These guys, who were huge and holding huge sticks as weapons, were roaring at the defenders on the wall.

In addition to these ogres, there is also a group of chattering creatures like goblins. These cowardly creatures, called cowards, are the mercenaries of these ogres.

"Tian? What's going on with these ogres?" Bourne and others came here to brush up on some knowledge about this land.

This group of warlike races that are never well-fed do exist in small numbers on this land, but it was too much of a coincidence that they encountered them. Ogres are also creations of the Ancient Saints, but when the Ancient Saints created things, they liked to add some flaws.

Ogres are very strong, and extremely resistant to Chaos corruption, just like their brains.

"Lord Bourne! These guys are here looking for food again!"

"again?!"

"That's right! Do you know why I am leading people to intercept the caravan? It's because of this group of ogres. To our west, this group of ogres has occupied a fortress that I heard used to be a dwarf's fortress. Once these guys run out of food, they will head towards the nearby human settlements.

To be honest, these guys are quite trustworthy. If you give them enough food, they will become your mercenaries! I have never seen an army that can stop them in this land, but if you don't give them enough food, it's hard to say. I heard that one or two principalities were destroyed by them. "

Zhang Heng outside the box was also paying attention to Bourne and his group. Terra had Rogna and his group of Ultramarines in charge, so there was nothing for him to do. Bretonnia also had troops stationed there. Only Bourne had some uncertainty.

While Bourne was listening, Zhang Heng was also listening.

"These ogres are forcing me to buy and sell. They were supposed to be stupid, but how come they have such business acumen?"

Zhang Heng recalled the settings of this group of ogres in the game. The trade route connecting the Old World and Zhendan was occupied by the Ogre Kingdom. It was called a kingdom, but in fact it was composed of different clans that were constantly attacking each other. But if you gave them enough rewards, these guys would be the best mercenaries.

They would ensure the safe passage of the caravan and would not rebel once hired.

When you encounter an ogre camp in the game, it is quite useful to hire one or two teams in the early stage.

In the background, the ogres are actually more deeply involved in the regime changes and battles in the Old World than in the game.

These ogres were present in many important wars, and the medieval empires were also fond of hiring these powerful mercenaries. Even until the end of the world, although some of these ogres joined the army of Chaos, some of them still fought against the army of Chaos under the leadership of their king, Big Gold Fang.

An exceptionally strong ogre stepped forward. His two hands had been replaced by an iron hook-like weapon and a rusty machete. He looked like a pure butcher.

It must be said that if a timid person saw this, he would be scared to death. The soldiers belonging to Manziger could hardly hold their weapons, but the soldiers of Terra were still not nervous.

As long as you are still flesh and blood, it doesn't matter if you are bigger. Carbon-based creatures can just shoot a few more shots in front of the laser.

"I, Skarragh the Destroyer, want food! Hungry!"

Bourne could barely make out what the ogre was saying.

As if thinking of something, Bourne asked Tien, "Tien, how much do these guys eat?"

"Hmm? What do you mean, sir? You're not going to hire them, are you? There's no way these guys are going to be fed! The food they eat is enough to feed twice as many people as we have here!"

"Just answer me, if we give them enough food, will they be hired by us? Will these guys betray us?"

"I've never heard of this before. These guys are surprisingly trustworthy."

Hearing this, Bourne felt relieved. Terra didn't lack food, but Zhang Heng would have to work as a buyer again.
