Chapter 348
"I didn't expect them to agree so quickly." "They are also looking for a way out. In comparison, we have an advantage. After all, our team is more familiar with the Great Swamp, but what about them? It has been here for countless years, and the team has changed. Batch after batch, but they have never walked out of the swamp of confession, so they must listen to us in this matter." Hearing Prior's words with such confidence, several other generals couldn't stop nodding.

"Did you say that old boy Upton is really seriously ill?" Benguela was still a little worried, so he brought up the old story and asked about it again, "Could it be that he deceived us?"

"If it's you, do you still want to deceive at this time? Didn't you smell the smell in the big tent just now?" "Smell? What smell?" "The smell of blood is the stench of vomiting blood when you are seriously ill. I believe that Upton should be terminally ill, and the end is only a few days away." Prior said that he couldn't help frowning slightly, with a feeling of sadness.

This frail governor actually has some ideas, but his luck is really bad. From the day he walked into this big swamp, there has been no peace here for a day. In addition, the war between the empire and Omar has become increasingly tense, and the royal family There was less and less interest in his idea of ​​pacifying the Everglades.

However, for Generals such as Prior, who have guarded the swamp for so many years, they are the ones who know the pros and cons of it best. The reason why Calais can compete with Omar is because of the cheap labor of these orcs. However, if the orcs were really freed from Calais' control, then Calais would lose his most powerful assistant.

Of course, this is second, and what is even more frightening is that a powerful enemy has risen on Calais' weakness. In the west of Calais, there are four big cities from south to north. Because of the irrigation of the four rivers, this is the largest area of ​​the empire. The grain area, and this is also the area closest to the orcs in the Great Swamp. In the past, tens of thousands of slaves worked in the fields, so that Calais had enough food. But once the orcs rise, these four big cities will instantly become battlefields. After all, there used to be It is the home of the orcs.

Riding on the horse, Prior couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and asked himself in his heart, "Should I listen to Upton once?" How should I answer the question from the temple?He couldn't help but slowly become ruthless. Only with the help of this battle can he create a chance for himself to escape. As long as he returns to the north, he will return to his own territory. Even if the orcs really rebel, he will still have to protect himself Ability.

He took a look at the generals around him, and believed that they must have the same thoughts as him, so this battle must be fought, and it must be carried out according to his plan. Where did the ape clan get food and grass for the ape clan's residence, so that they could have the opportunity to go back to the north.

It will be spring in the Great Swamp in two days, and the animal skin cloak he is wearing is already a bit hot, so he can't help but tug on the tight collar to let the cool breeze in, so as to calm himself down. Spring is no joke, in this season there are fatal crises everywhere.

Fred sat there quietly, staring at Upton on the bed in a daze. The Governor, whom he had followed for more than ten years, just passed away quietly, leaving himself in this lonely swamp , and his last words were to let himself take him back, to the hometown that Upton had left since he was a child, where there might be his relatives.

Looking at the bloodless face, Fred, the tough man, couldn't help but shed tears. At that moment, he had lost his direction, and even lost the meaning of existence. If there were no last words, maybe he would have gone with him , but this last sentence made him find the meaning of living, "After the adult's body is buried, I will build a hut next to it, and I will accompany you day and night from now on."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stand up slowly, wiped away the tears on his face and walked out of the tent. Around the big tent was Upton's personal guards, there were more than a thousand guards, and he wanted to tell the cruel reality These people, unlike the garrison of the Great Swamp, they all came here following the adults, and they have no guilt on their bodies, so they can leave here at any time, and it is up to them to decide where these guards go.

Fred sat quietly in front of the big tent, and there were some gold and silver items on the table. Because Mr. Upton was frugal all his life, there were only so many valuable things. He looked at the more than 1000 guards standing neatly in front of him. , his mood was extremely complicated. In fact, he brought less than a hundred of these guards from Gangsas City, and the rest were drawn from various armies. Although they have now separated from the original army and followed Adults also have some days, but it is really hard to talk about how much emotion they have.

Fred is a strict man who runs the army, and although Upton is very sympathetic to his subordinates, he will never deliberately win over the relationship, so Fred has already thought about it before, and put all the valuables on display. Of course, part of the severance expenses for this guard must be allocated to the civil servants under him.

Even if he was the only one left in the end, he would still take the body of the lord back to his hometown. After making up his mind, Fred couldn't help but said softly, "The lord has passed away. I can't keep this from you. It will get out sooner or later." , I might as well tell you directly today, I believe you are also very clear about the current situation in the Great Swamp. The legion is transferred up, if you want to go back, you can go back, if you don’t want to fight anymore, you can go home, there is some money here, you can share it, and it counts as us working together.”

Just when he said that the governor had passed away, some people began to cry softly below. The crying slowly spread and finally turned into a crowd of crying. After he finished speaking, no one took any action for a long time. Occasionally One or two wanted to get some money and leave, but they were stopped by the people around them, and they just stood silently with their heads bowed. Amid the continuous crying, the atmosphere became more dignified, and finally someone said, "General , I am willing to accompany the general to escort the body of the governor back home!" As soon as this person finished speaking, more than a thousand soldiers immediately said in unison, "I am willing to escort the body of the governor back home!"

Then more than a thousand people knelt down in unison, which was beyond Fred's expectation. Maybe some of them didn't intend to, but under the infection of this atmosphere, they also knelt down together. He hurriedly stood up and walked around the table , walked up to these guards, some faces he was familiar with, and some of them were faces he couldn't name, he couldn't help but bowed deeply to these people, "I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of the adults. You Ling will be moved to tears when he sees this scene."

In the end, Fred only selected 200 people, including a few ice mages. Although they were all low-level mages, they were enough to protect the body of the adults along the way. With these soldiers holding the coffin, they embarked on a long journey home.

The news quickly spread to all the legions, and it also made these generals feel emotional. No matter what happened before, but death is the end of everything. Originally, they didn't have much enmity. They just stood at different angles for their own interests. From the bottom of their hearts, they still have some admiration for the Governor's behavior, and what Upton said to them at the end has a different meaning when they experience it again now.

"What should we do?" "What should we do? It's this time, are you still hesitating? Now that the arrow is on the string, if we don't shoot it, we may be the ones who get hurt." "That's right, you guys are too Mother-in-law and mother-in-law, I am afraid that the empire will reconsider our decision to stay after Upton's death. Why don't we find a way out by ourselves while there is no news from the empire, or you will regret it by then." "To General Benguela this time Reasonably, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if we don’t hold the initiative in our own hands, sooner or later we will become guns in the hands of others.”

"Okay, now that everyone has made up their minds, let's raise our troops immediately. The army will advance another [-] miles, and then we will send out our surprise soldiers in the dark sky. The success or failure will be decided tonight. Let's go back and prepare separately. "Pryor called the orderly after finishing speaking, "Send my order, the army advances across the board!"

In a mountain depression, Sheng Xuan looked at the map nervously, and news came back from time to time, reporting the positions of the various parties of the Calais army, and he clearly marked them on the map. Where are the pretend troops sent to carry out their plans?"

At this moment, several generals in the south of Calais also got together to discuss, "It's really not the time for Upton to die. Why did something happen at this time? Without his check and balance, I'm afraid the northern legions would not Sincerely fight against the Golden Wolf Clan with us, we still have to make plans early."

"Do you think they will really fight this battle with us if Appleton is not dead? They are not fools, and I am afraid they have the same thoughts as us. Since the last restriction no longer exists, we still have to Make plans early." "Well, yes, the golden wolf clan has been here for hundreds of years and has such a deep foundation. Although they don't have many decent weapons in their hands, we are not opponents even if we fight the number of people. The reason why everyone was at peace before This matter is actually a tacit understanding reached over the past few hundred years, but when Appleton came, he drove him into the mountains. This enmity has already been settled, but we have to bear the consequences,,,,"

"Okay, stop complaining, let's think about what's ahead." "What else is there to think about? I think we should just feign defeat and go back to our previous station. We have been in business for many years, even if the orcs really do something, they dare not do anything to us easily." "Food, what we are short of now is food, do you want my soldiers to eat rocks?"

"I think Appleton's last paper order is a way out." "You mean we withdraw our troops? But where are we withdrawing to?" "I feel a faint ominous sign these days. Shocking the orcs, it was because they were too scattered and lost their faith, but now after the totem was born, the orcs everywhere are about to move. Although the yellow ape tribe sent a heavy army to take the opportunity to unify the orcs, their little power is simply nothing. The mantis is like a cart, and the orc is like a huge and terrifying monster. He used to be in a deep sleep. Once he wakes up and becomes angry, it may be a world-shattering upheaval. If we don’t want to die, we have to retreat to the empire, and maybe it’s not peaceful there.”

The recent update may be a bit slow, one is because of family affairs, and the other is because I want to present a wonderful battle to everyone, this is just the beginning, the excitement is still to come, so I want to think carefully and try to be reasonable, now A lot of holes have been dug, maybe everyone didn't pay attention, if every hole tells you that it is a hole, what's the point?So I hope you will support me a lot, and I also hope that I can write the wonderful plots I think in my heart. I hope everyone will forgive me for my lack of writing skills! ! !
