Chapter 951: Bad News (Part 1)
The city of Hita had already been occupied by a rather powerful rebel army at this time. The leader of this rebel army was a man who called himself Osato.
This Osato is also considered powerful, but he has not reached the level of full beastization. At best, he is the peak of the fourth form, and his blood is the golden python of the middle-level giant beast. It is very powerful, not inferior to Earl Steinwyn's blood of the deinosaur crocodile, and even stronger.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the Holy Dragon Empire, Orsato quickly gathered a group of people, captured several cities, and expanded his strength rapidly, becoming a rather powerful rebel army.
At this time, in the city of Hita, Osato stood on the city wall. In the sky, there were scouts who specialized in scouting the surroundings. They were composed of soldiers with the blood of giant beasts that could fly. In the Python army, the status is relatively high.
"Whoosh".
A reconnaissance soldier in the sky flew down to the city wall and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, we have found a caravan ahead."
"Caravan?"
Orsato's eyes lit up. His army was expensive. He captured several cities, but he didn't replenish much. Many supplies were almost exhausted.
And the caravan happened to be very rich, and it was nothing new for these rebels to occasionally act as bandits.
"Have you seen how many people there are in that caravan?"
"There are about 500 people, and 300 of them are wearing armor and riding horses. They are heavy guard cavalry, and they should be mercenaries of the caravan."
These scouts were still very careful. Orsato pondered for a while and asked, "Have you seen the flags of the mercenaries? Generally, famous mercenaries will have flags, and the more powerful the mercenaries, the more so."
Orsato still seemed very cautious. The mercenaries hired by these large chambers of commerce are not ordinary people, they are often regular troops. Not even the opponents of these mercenaries, let alone. The Python Army is just a slightly stronger rebel army. Orsator himself has not yet reached the point of becoming a full beast, and he is far from being able to compare with the most powerful rebel army. Naturally, he should be more cautious .
"Your Excellency, what we saw was a huge blood-colored crocodile."
"A bloody crocodile? Is it a fearful crocodile?"
Many thoughts flashed through Orsato's mind. He had heard of the blood of the alligator. It is also the blood of a middle-level giant beast, which is similar to his blood of the golden python.
Moreover, the blood of the Deinosaurs is rarely distributed on the mainland. In the Holy Dragon Empire, the only ones that are a little stronger are the Huidriaiman family of Boulder City.
In particular, Earl Steinven of the Huidriaiman family, who is in the fourth beast form, is not inferior to Orsator. If it weren't for the collusion of the barbarian tribe in the Boulder City, he might be in the Boulder City. will encounter difficulties.
"It should be Earl Steinwyn. Heh heh, the blood of Earl Steinwyn is said to be of the blood of the deinosaur crocodile. It's very powerful. This time, we need to see it well. He came here to escort a caravan. He probably didn't know about our situation. Tacheng has not fallen. That’s okay, we’ll let them in and wipe out this caravan!”
Orsato finally made a decision. He has a full 20,000 soldiers of the Python Army. Although they are not strictly trained, they have experienced the flames of war. Now everyone is elite.
Of course, Steinwin's cavalry wants to gain some advantage. But if they entered the city, they would ambush in advance. Even elite cavalry are useless.
"Decree, all the people in the Python Army, hide it for me, let this caravan enter the city, and let the original Hita City people cooperate, otherwise, the city will be massacred!"
A cruel smile appeared on Orsato's face.

On the wide road, a caravan is slowly moving forward along the mainland. This caravan seems to have a lot of goods, so the outside is protected by heavily armed heavy guard knights.
"Earl Stanwin, Hita City is ahead. Hita City is still in the hands of the empire. We can go to Hita City to take a good rest. After all, we have been driving for half a month."
The person in charge was the person in charge of the caravan. They paid a lot of money to hire Earl Steinven's seemingly very powerful mercenary army.
At the beginning, some people were skeptical. After all, Earl Steinven's mercenaries looked good, but who knew how it would be in actual combat? You must know that the current Holy Dragon Empire is not peaceful. They have to deal with bandits, refugees, and even some rebels along the way. The establishment time is too short.
After the final discussion, he finally agreed to hire Earl Steinwyn. Along the way, Earl Steinwyn and his 300 heavy guard knights drove away many bandits and safely escorted the caravan to its destination. The land, now fully loaded with goods, is ready to return to Sacred Dragon City.
Everyone in the caravan is very satisfied with Earl Steinven's mercenaries.
Earl Steinven did not follow the advice of the head of the caravan, but sent a few heavy guard knights to investigate the reality of Hita City, and everything must be cautious.
"Mr. Geer, let's stop and rest for the time being. We will enter the city of Hita after we return from the reconnaissance and make sure that nothing has happened to Hita."
Earl Steinven was still very cautious, and would rather arrive at Hita City later than venture into it.
Mr. Gell, the person in charge of the caravan, felt that Earl Steinwyn was too cautious, but it didn't do any harm to the caravan, so he nodded and said, "Alright, let's go and have a look first."
After a long time, the reconnaissance heavy guard cavalry came back, and they reported to Earl Steinven: "The city of Hita looks normal, the imperial flag is still flying on the tower, and there are still many people coming and going, and there is no sign of rebellion. military occupation."
"Haha, Earl Steinven, are you worrying too much? There is nothing wrong with Hita City, let's go, let's hurry up and try to get to Hita City as soon as possible, so that we can rest earlier."
Mr. Gell glanced behind him. Many people were very tired. Not everyone could be as energetic as Earl Steinwyn, who had been on the road for half a month.
Earl Steinven also believed in his heavy guard knights. Since there was no problem in the reconnaissance, he also nodded and said: "Alright, everyone has worked hard, let's go to Hita City to rest, about half a month later , you will be able to reach the Holy Dragon City."
After all, under the escort of Earl Steinven's 300 heavy guard knights, the whole convoy hurried on their way towards the city of Hita not far away. (To be continued) R655
