Lord of War

The temperature started to get hotter.

Because noon in the barren land is gradually approaching. At this time, anyone who walks in the barren land can clearly see the air distortion formed by the fog rising due to the high temperature on the Gobi. Once it reaches the hottest time at noon, even the most tyrannical monsters here in the wild land will rarely be willing to show up at this time.

But even at this moment, there are still a group of people prostrate on a high ground.

This is a high ground, and the terrain is not too high, but if you just crawl on the ground and be careful, then even if someone passes by on the ground, as long as you don't look up and observe carefully, you still can't find the person hiding here. What's more, this high ground can observe the situation hundreds of meters away, and if the distance is extended to hundreds of meters, it will be even more difficult to find people lurking on this high ground.

At this moment, there happened to be a team walking on the Gobi in the barren land.

The size of this team is very long, and many people seem to be a little weak, and their footsteps seem to be vain, as if they are rushing to the next place after a hard battle without any rest time Like the battlefield. This team may be due to exhaustion, so they did not continue to maintain the formation at all when they moved forward, but walked a little sparsely, and even stretched the team for a long time, looking like an endless stretch.

In this team, there are still many injured people. They trembled as if they had encountered some cruel treatment, and these people didn't have hoods or cloaks on them, and they had to be supported by other people even when they were walking.

The morale of the entire team is obviously in an extremely low situation, and even a little tired.

With the energy level of this team, it is naturally impossible to find that someone is watching them carefully on a high ground hundreds of meters away.

"The size of the team is more than a thousand people at least." Andre frowned, and then said.

In terms of the half-breaking power of a veteran in a wild land like Andre, it is undoubtedly the most accurate.

Because if the judgment is not accurate enough, then for a slave hunting team, it is no less than a catastrophe. After all, if the approximate population of a tribe and even some related things cannot be cut off in an instant, then blindly attack , the result is never anything good.

Therefore, when Andre said the number of people in this team, everyone believed it by seven or eight points.

Of course, the remaining two or three points do not mean that they have any objections. In fact, the people present are all good commanders. The number of a troop is a very basic step. It is precisely because of this foundation that every commander has his own pride, so retaining two to three points of doubt can be understood as a manifestation of self-esteem.

After all, everyone has different strengths and different ways of looking at problems, so the accuracy of the half-break is naturally different.

"Can you see anything?" Sean asked, "For example, which family's army is this or what?"

"I can't see it." After observing for a while, many people finally shook their heads helplessly.

Sean and others will know that this is an army, or because of the investigation report of Im and Ruby that night. Later, when killing Burrell,

Xiao En also discovered the subordinate of the wolf, but it was a pity that this subordinate seemed to be a non-staff member, so he knew nothing about the wolf's origin, identity and other information. Under such circumstances, Xiao En chose to let the scout go back to report the situation to the wolf, and then the wolf rushed to the scene to clean up the mess, and the scene in front of him now.

Yes, Sean was planning a bigger counterattack from the start.

Sitting still has never been his style.

And watching the plan in front of him being realized step by step, Sean also encountered a new problem.

They did not know where this army came from. Every army must have its own origin, which can usually be broken by clues such as flags, clothing, or even family emblems. And with Sean's true eye, as long as he knows these clues to deduce the origin of a unit, then he can get the intelligence data of the entire unit in the first place.

But the current problem is that the people in this army are all wearing hoods and cloaks and they don't have any flags. It is simply impossible to judge the origin of this army. Under such unknown circumstances, it is not a good idea to launch a surprise attack on an army of up to a thousand people, especially if this army also has several gold-level powerhouses.

"The opponent has at least four gold-level powerhouses." After observing for a while, Clover quickly discovered the four powerful auras hidden in this team. If it is incompatible with the surrounding environment, I really may not be able to find it."

Clover said this, of course, has his purpose.

He knew Xiao En's plan last night: lure the commander named wolf out, and then find some troublesome things for them to do, consume their energy, and then launch an attack on the opponent on the way back. because

According to Sean's calculations, this troop has been busy digging holes and recruiting the wounded all morning after traveling all night. These things will consume at least half of their energy and stamina. It is the hottest time, and the enemy's mind will be restless and relaxed. If they launch a surprise attack at this time, then Xiao En and others will completely occupy the three major advantages of time, location, and people.

But it's a pity that Xiao En didn't expect the other party to be so cautious. When he was dispatched, there were thousands of people walking together, and there were actually four gold-level powerhouses.

When Clover said this at this time, he was naturally reminding Sean not to act blindly. With their current strength of less than four hundred people, it is not a fun thing to launch a surprise attack on a thousand-man team with four gold powerhouses. Although they may not be defeated, the casualties will definitely It is very serious, which is different from Clover's purpose of protecting Cecilia.

But if Sean insisted on fighting, Cecilia would definitely not object, and would even immediately support it with action, so in order to avoid such a situation, Clover had to stop it. If the main offensive force at this moment is not his, and Cecilia doesn't need to take risks, then Clover will never remind Sean that there are four gold powerhouses in the opponent's army.

Although there is a lot of unrequited love in his heart, Sean also knows that the planned raid will not be possible.

If the opponent only had two gold powerhouses, then he could still fight, but with four gold powerhouses and an army of a thousand people, it would not be the prey he could handle now. Because no matter how bad the army is, it is still a third-level army, not armed soldiers in tribes like Trade Point. When there are enough troops, almost all of them must be sacrificed.

Similarly, Sean can deal with two gold powerhouses in one go, but he will be useless afterwards. And even if Cecilia used large-scale fire magic to launch an attack, the opponent didn't say whether she would be given this time, even if they would, the enemy army is not a kobold, and it is impossible to be scared to collapse because of a magic. At that time, under the leadership of the four gold powerhouses, Clover's army will be directly annihilated.

And after a strong golden man was instantly killed by Sean, would they give Sean another chance? I'm afraid they will use the tactics of muddy fighting spirit and long attack distance to confront Xiao En.

If this was the case, then it wasn't Sean and the others who raided their opponents, but a beautiful counterattack by the opponent.

Thinking of this, Xiao En sighed helplessly after all, and said, "Retreat.... Let's meet up with Rena first."

Hearing what Xiao En said, everyone nodded, and then began to withdraw from the high ground carefully, not daring to make too much noise. After all, the opponent has four gold-ranked powerhouses. From this distance, Sean and the others can observe the situation of the opponent's army, which means that the opponent is also likely to find the situation of Sean and others. And relying on the perception advantage of the gold powerhouse, Clover didn't even dare to observe the four auras hidden in the crowd.

But at this moment, it was almost the moment when Xiao En and the others had just evacuated from the high ground.

Wolf, the commander of the army a hundred meters away from the highland here, immediately turned gloomy: "They actually left?"

"Yes." A man who was as imposing as a wolf said in a deep voice, "They have already started to retreat, and they may have discovered that we are tempting them to attack."

"Damn it! What a bunch of cunning rats!" The wolf cursed angrily.

As a follower of the third young master of the Nugus family, the wolf is also the person who is best at insidious tactics such as ambushes and sneak attacks, and is also a strong man of gold, so his mind is naturally impossible. Almost when she saw the incident where Burrell died, she knew that Sean and the others would definitely ambush them, so she made the entire army look a little slack, and even fought with several other golden strongmen. All of them are hiding in the team, thinking about the plan of doing tricks.

As long as Xiao En and the others dare to launch a surprise attack, meeting them will be a counter-ambush!

Obviously, due to certain factors, Sean and the others did not find out why the wolf and the other four gold powerhouses were hiding in the team. But no matter how you say it, Xiao En and the others can indeed be regarded as escaped, and such a result makes the wolf's teeth itch with hatred.

Because she never expected that Sean would give up such a big bait!

"Chasing!" The wolf just pondered for less than five seconds, and immediately made a decision, "Leave 300 people to escort the wounded back to the camp, you go back with the army, and the others will chase with me!"

Soon, a team of 700 people and two gold powerhouses immediately followed the wolf and started running towards the high ground.

In the blink of an eye, an attempted raid by Sean turns into a chase led by Wolf!

And at this time, Xiao En and the others didn't even know that their tracks had been discovered! (To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team @冰山berg123] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
