Chapter 69: Fort Vick Defense Battle 5

"Let these captives serve as interpreters and help interrogate the captured sheep-headed people.

Dida soon selected several smart people from the rescued people.

Being rescued by humans, although not their own lords, these people all felt like they had survived a disaster.

One of the old captives looked unusual. Through the conversation, Richard knew that this person was a low-ranking official in the Duke of Jonathan.

"What's your name? Do you have noble blood?"

"My name is Bernard. I'm a distant relative of Baron Luca. I work as a tax officer in Dela Castle."

"How many years have you lived in the Orc Empire?"

"It's been thirteen years."

"How was your life in the Orc Empire?"

"That was a terrifying memory, sir!

This time, the Shamok Brigade took a detour over the Eagle Mountains. When there was not enough food, they ate people. Many of our companions were eaten by orcs.

Foxmen and sheepmen are slightly better. Lionmen are brutal, werewolves are bloodthirsty, and pigmen are barbaric.

We spend every day in the Orc Empire, our hearts feel like they are being cut by a knife, and we are in constant fear of being eaten. "

As he spoke, Bernard burst into tears.

For many years, they have been captured by the orcs, living in fear every day, and even becoming the orcs' food. The heavy pressure makes them live a miserable life. Today, they were rescued by Richard and arrived in a safe situation, and they couldn't help crying and venting.

"My condolences! Mr. Bernard, the situation is very urgent now, and it is not the time to cry. Why are you following the sheep-headed people?"

"The Shamok Brigade took a long detour this time, and it is difficult to carry too much food. I heard that Captain Maruland proposed a suggestion to let humans transport food with them. When there is not enough food, they can eat humans to supplement the military rations.

A few days after crossing the Eagle Mountains, many of our people were eaten by Shamok, especially women and children, half of whom were eaten by orcs. "

"This news is a secret news in the orc army. How did you know it? ”

“I was captured in the Orc Empire for the fourth year and was sold to the Fox Tribe. I have been looking after a child for the Fox nobles. This child is now a magician of the Yimsh Brigade. He told me the news. ”

“You have been in the Orc Empire for many years. Which race of Orc language can you understand?”

“The Orc language is actually derived from the ancient northern language system of the Dawn Continent. After the wizard blood experiment, the vocal organs of the major Orc races are different, forming different languages.

After the establishment of the Orc Empire, the official text and official language were vigorously promoted.

Nowadays, most of the middle and upper classes of the Orc Empire can speak the official language. However, the official language has a small vocabulary. When encountering complex words, the orcs will still speak their own language. ‘6’‘9’‘s’‘h’‘u’‘x’‘.’‘c’‘o’‘m’

I have been in the Orc Empire for many years. I can understand Fox language, Sheep language, official language, and some of the Tauren language. I know about half of the Orc text. "

Hearing that there are such talents among the rescued humans, Richard said very happily: "You have noble blood, I should have given you freedom. But now it is a state of war, and I need you to serve us.

I'm sorry, Mr. Bernard, you have been conscripted. You can only regain your freedom after the war is over. "

"I understand your decision very well."

Bernard has been in the Orc Empire for many years. If he doesn't know the current situation, he won't live that long.

Let Bernard be the translator, and Dida took him to interrogate the orc captives.

Richard began to count the casualties.

"One was killed and three were injured in the seventh squadron."

"Two were killed and four were injured in the first squadron of Harland Territory."

Richard nodded and said to the officer beside him: "Two squadrons each selected three squads of soldiers to escort the captives back to Fort William and send the wounded back to Bobby Brick Kiln Factory.

The six squads of soldiers are under the command of Hayden.

The rescued population was temporarily settled in the reclamation camp. Now is the spring ploughing season, let the reclamation camp take action and don't delay farming.

After the mission is completed, meet up with the main force in the woods six kilometers east of Fort Vick. "

Soon the intelligence was interrogated. The main force of Shamok attacked Fort Vick, and two auxiliary squadrons cleared the human village in Stopa territory.

Because there are not many people in Stopa territory, a squadron of sheep-headed people has entered Diram territory.

By interrogating the prisoners, Richard roughly figured out the deployment of the orcs.

The sheep-headed camp is less than 20 kilometers away from Fort Vick.

The sound of chopping and killing caused by the war is of course not heard in Fort Vick.

However, in the surprise attack at night, some sheep-headed people took advantage of the war to escape the battlefield.

These people may bring intelligence to the orcs of Fort Vick, and there is a risk of exposure if they attack the orcs of Fort Vick.

If the orc commander is smart and can take advantage of the situation, he may be able to calculate This reinforcement brought by Richard.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Richard decided to enter the Diram Territory and annihilate the Sheep-Headed Man Squadron.

See if he can unite with the army of the Diram Territory to rescue Vickburg together, so that the chances of winning will be greater.

Richard told his determination to the grassroots officers and backbone soldiers.

After unifying the opinions, he bypassed the Stopa Territory overnight and entered the Diram Territory.

The previous generation of Baron Diram died of illness, and the new Baron Diram was less courageous and did not implement the policy of clearing the countryside.

He actually scared a squadron of sheep-headed men and dared not leave the city.

This is the first time Richard has seen such a hereditary noble.

After nine years in the Dawn Continent, the hereditary nobles Richard has seen are all strong and brave.

Nobles in the northern borders like my father William, Baron Harden, Baron Dark, and the previous generation Baron Stopa are quite common.

Even girls like Sofia who grew up in the northern borders are very courageous in character.

Baron Diram's performance naturally did not get Richard's respect.

The plan of the joint rescue has not yet begun, and Richard has already failed in his heart.

Through reconnaissance, Richard found that the sheep-headed people continued to break through villages and towns and capture the people of Diram, as if they were in an empty land.

Richard deliberately ignored it, but hid in Diram's territory for three days. When he found that the sheep-headed people had no intention of attacking the lord's castle, Richard led his soldiers to launch an attack on the sheep-headed squadron.

This battle was very successful again. Richard personally shot and killed a first-level sheep-headed man, and then cooperated with Heyman to kill the captain of the sheep-headed man squadron, gaining 2,500 experience points.

In addition, more than 60 sheep-headed people were captured and 4,000 people of Diram were rescued.

The last orc invasion war, Diram's territory was lucky to escape.

This time, Richard transformed himself into Baron Harden and got a great deal from Baron Diram.

Since he had no respect for Baron Diram, Richard would not return the people he rescued, and all of them would be moved to Harland's territory.
