Heart of Empire
Chapter 27: bad news
戴 After Dane threw two squadrons, almost one hundred and twenty horror mercenaries into the courtyard of the war, the bad news came one after another.
First, from the outpost where Golobo was stationed, the latest information about the community of faceless people entrenched in that freshwater lake was transmitted: their number has increased! Faceless people constantly wandering around, joining this settlement. In addition, the investigation team also found that among the faceless settlements, a large number of hairless black-skinned hyenas were also found. These violent canine monsters seem to be raised by faceless people, obeying their instructions.
得到 In order to obtain this further information, a scouting mercenary under Golob was killed. The news of his sacrifice is also very important.
In addition to the increase in the number of these roofers and the discovery of a lot of hyenas, they also brought back another piece of information that, although not 100% certain, has attracted Dane's attention to a considerable extent: There seemed to be a 'boss' among the group of faceless people.
Dean wasn't just worried about the leader who didn't know how strong he was or even if he really didn't exist. He was worried that if these faceless people really had a leader, the significance would be significant: this is a group of monsters with the least wisdom, and there is a corresponding organizational structure in their group.
A group of monsters with organizational structure, wisdom, and even unified command is far more difficult than dealing with the same number of beasts. Even, he would rather deal with the number of faceless people plus half of them, rather than a leader among the monsters.
But to be honest, this kind of thing is not transferred by his will. All he could do was hurriedly leave Orineldo and return to Ghostblade Harbor, always on guard against attacks that did not know when they would come from the East.
As the number grows, those faceless people become more and more restless. They seemed to have felt something, and the constant loss of manpower finally caused the restlessness of these faceless people. Obviously, they started sending teams to the west of their freshwater lake, which is in the direction of Ghostblade Harbor.
Obviously, this is no longer the loitering faceless team that Dane killed before. This is definitely a targeted investigation team sent by the faceless people.
In the not-so-long period of time, attacks from the faceless men on Golobo and Ghostblade Harbor have become more frequent. Although, for the time being, they haven't come out yet, but six consecutive attacks occurred in two weeks, on average a little more than once every two days, which also caused Dane to burn his head.
In two weeks, the Dread Ghost Mercenary Regiment has lost almost an entire team's manpower. Although they have also beheaded a larger number of faceless men's heads, this damage still makes Dane's face not very good. good looking. He can now be almost 100% sure that those who have faceless must have found their tracks. After covering up more than half a month, I can't hide it today.
He was ruthless in his heart. When the soldiers in Orinel had completed the training of sword dancers, he immediately attacked the freshwater lake decisively, and must wipe out all these faceless people with their throats in their throats.
Where do you let others sleep?
But those faceless people move faster than Dion imagined. Three days before the deadline for finishing training given by Lanstro, a bad news came: the freshwater lake faceless, came out! Two hundred and thirty faceless people, plus almost half of the number of hyenas, the target points directly at Ghostblade Harbor!
The news came from Golobo, who was still stationed at the outpost. He was already with his two squads, ready to give up the outpost. Except for leaving two people to observe the enemy's actions from a distance and fire signal flares at any time, all others retreated.
This is not that Golobo has no courage to fight. On the contrary, this half-orc warrior is the best of several Dane's men. However, he hasn't been reckless enough to take more than a dozen or twenty people to attack an army of more than two hundred people. That is not fighting, it is killing.
Abandoning the outpost is a last resort.
After getting the news, Dane immediately became nervous. He immediately gathered everyone in Ghostblade Harbor, put down all construction activities, and prepared for the war. There is no doubt that the onslaught of these faceless people was the most dangerous challenge Dane faced when he set foot on the desert island of Comilla.
Fortunately, he is ready for this.
The wall of the Ghost Knife Camp has been constructed, and it can not be considered as strong, but the stone-wood wall of almost two meters high can play a significant role when the opponent does not have siege equipment. Moreover, the main thing is that the ancient tree of war, Orsengari, came to Ghostblade Port half a month ago at the request of Dane.
古 The ancient trees of the war moved very slowly. From Orinai to Ghostblade Port, even an ordinary person only took up to four or five hours. Soldiers with relatively good physical fitness proceeded at an even speed with full armour, and arrived within two hours. But Orsangari took three days and three nights to reach Ghostblade Port.
Of course, although the speed of the ancient trees of war is slow, Dane never thought about using Orsengary in encounters. For the enemy's active attack, sticking to the ghost knife harbor with defensive facilities, Orsengari's speed disadvantage was almost wiped out, but his power and fearlessness can be used to the extreme.
的 Preparation in Ghostblade Port is not complete, but Dane has done everything he can. Not only that, he also sent Tommy to Orinel to send a message asking about the sword dancer training. If training is complete, come to support immediately. UU reading books www. uukanshu. com
汤 After Tommy left from the east, Dane also took hundreds of heavily armed mercenaries to the periphery of the wall west of Ghostblade Harbor, waiting anxiously for the enemy's arrival.
I can't bear to let him not be nervous, he doesn't want to end up in the first major battle of Comillas and end with heavy casualties.
Dean never doubted that he would fail. Even if there was no reinforcements, relying on the strength at hand and close to the defense facilities of Ghostblade Port, Dane would be sure to win this battle. The reason why he is so nervous now is that there is only one thing to consider: he doesn't want to have too many casualties, and he can't afford it.
Until now, the mercenaries who have died under those faceless people have already had nearly twenty people, which has caused him so much pain. If he continues to die, the trouble will become very great.
There are only two hundred people in his staff. He can never endure too high a casualty price, not even 20%. Relying on the hundreds of mercenaries in his current hands, coupled with the defense measures of Ghostblade Harbor, and the war story Orsengari, Dane is sure to win this battle, but it will be a terrible victory. The number of opponents is not less than themselves. Although they are attackers, don't forget that these faceless people also have the help of hyenas similar to theirs! Although the hyenas are not as threatening as the faceless people themselves, they must not be underestimated.
