Chapter 620: Is a Thousand Cavalrymen Too Much to Intercept?

Bird pioneer territory.

Twilight City.

This is a trading city built by the Bird family.

It connects the trade between the north and the south.

It is also the front line of attacking the Ogre Forest.

As the Ogre Forest and the Bird family went to war.

The main force of the Bird family entered Twilight City.

Around the city, the elite of the Bird family wearing armor and carrying spears can be seen everywhere.

And in the center of Twilight City is the town hall of Twilight City.

Here.

Four of the eight descendants of old Bird came.

Among them, Aman Bird, the eldest son, is the supreme commander of the legion.

His two younger brothers, James Bird and Haytham Bird, are in charge of logistics and cavalry reconnaissance corps respectively.

At the same time, there is a younger brother, Klein Bird, who is the strongest among the few and is also the commander of the vanguard corps of the Bird family.

But in the town hall.

But there is no figure of Klein.

"James, is there no news about Klein?"

Aman, the eldest son, asked.

Klein is their youngest brother and the most favored by their father.

However, he has no inheritance rights, and he is Aman's biological brother, so he has received much attention from Aman.

James and Haytham are different from his mother.

"Klein is fun, maybe he is attracted by the town of Harvest."

"There."

"But there are the most beautiful dancers in Gondor."

It was Haytham who answered.

His voice was rough and loud.

He also looked a little rough.

Haytham's mother was a beautiful wolf girl with orc blood.

Haytham was born with atavism.

That's why he looks ugly.

However, although he did not inherit his mother's appearance.

He inherited the fighting blood of the werewolf.

Before Klein was born, Haytham was the strongest warrior in the territory.

"No, it shouldn't be."

Aman shook his head and said.

He knows Klein.

Dirty dancers are definitely not his hobbies.

Beautiful maids and cooks.

Instead, they are more attractive to Klein.

"Hey, wolf cub."

"Klein has pure noble blood."

"Not like you."

James on the side said sarcastically.

In the Bird family, James' mother came from a small noble family.

He knew he had no right of inheritance.

So he had been currying favor with the eldest son Aman early on.

Among Bird's eight children.

James is the most loyal to Aman.

For Aman, James did not hesitate to offend everyone.

Including old Bird.

More than once, James scolded old Bird in front of him as an old man.

Old Bird was so angry that he almost expelled him from the family.

But he was saved by Aman every time.

In Bird's pioneer territory.

As the eldest son, Aman's power has long grown to be enough to compete with old Bird.

Old Bird is no longer the wolf king of the North.

He is too old.

He is too old to bite meat.

Now his vassals no longer pledge allegiance to him.

They are waiting for Old Bird to die, and then they will surrender to Aman.

But Old Bird is so tenacious that he has not died until now.

This makes James and his people impatient.

They often challenge his authority and stimulate Old Bird.

They want him to pass the title to Aman as soon as possible.

It can be said that in the entire Bird Frontier.

James is the one who can't wait to see Old Bird die.

That's why.

He will become Aman's confidant.

He manages the City of Twilight for him.

And the other Haytham is often targeted by James because of his loyalty to Old Bird.

When he heard the other party insult his mother.

Haytham was furious.

"Damn bastard."

"I'm going to stab you with my iron spear."

"Let you know what respect is."

"I'm afraid of you!"

"You bastard."

In the town hall, the two of them confronted each other directly.

Behind them were the troops loyal to Old Bird and Aman's confidants.

"Enough!"

"Want a civil war?"

Aman interrupted the two with anger.

Then he spoke to himself.

"Klein went to the town of Harvest."

"He wants to borrow a road, so that we can take a detour from the Harvest Trail."

"Attack the Ogre Forest from the side."

"He set out three days ago."

"Whether the other party agrees or not."

"He should return now."

"He hasn't returned yet."

"Is it possible that the people of Harvest Town detained Klein?"

Hailsen heard this.

He immediately shook his head to express his opposition.

"They dare not."

"Besides, what is the purpose of detaining Klein."

"Is it for money?"

"That's too stupid."

"With their strength, any mercenary group of ours can flatten them."

James lowered his head and thought about it.

Then he raised his head and said.

"Aman."

"There are rumors in Weiguang City recently."

"It is said that the ogres' counterattack this time is because they colluded with the internal traitors of the Bird family."

"Is it possible that Klein was captured by the traitor."

"Without Klein, if we want to attack the Ogre Forest."

"Then we can only change the forward."

"And the only person who can be the forward is~"

He glanced at Hailsen on the side.

The meaning is self-evident.

"Hmph!"

"I also heard rumors that you, James, bought a strong poison, Ogre Alchemy."

"What? Are you planning to collude with the Ogre Forest and poison someone to death?"

"Enough!"

A trace of violence appeared in Aman's eyes.

"What I need is accurate intelligence."

"Who dares to fight again?"

"Just get back to the Bird Frontier Castle."

This time.

The two finally chose to shut up.

And Aman saw that they could not provide any information.

He waved his hand and disbanded the meeting.

Then he returned to his residence.

And not long after.

James appeared in Aman's room.

"I just got a piece of intelligence."

"The Ogres launched a counterattack on the front line."

"Their counterattack this time is very strange."

"It seems to be specifically aimed at the built sentry tower."

"Aman, this is different from before."

"Will there be any situation?"

Hearing this news, Aman looked thoughtful.

Now the struggle within the Bird Frontier is getting more and more intense.

It is not impossible to collude with the ogres.

So every unusual move in the Ogre Forest.

must be taken seriously.

At this moment.

Even a small mistake may have disastrous consequences.

"Is there any latest information about the situation of the sentry towers on the front line?"

Aman asked.

"No."

"But I have sent people to notify the mercenary group and report the situation of their own sentry post."

James replied.

"No, that's not enough."

"You dispatch some of the Bird Guard Knights to conduct random inspections of the sentry posts in the garrison areas of each mercenary group."

"I need to get accurate information."

"Yes."

While Aman sent people to patrol.

On the other side.

Haytham also got the news.

"Sir."

"News from the Ogres."

"Something went wrong with the sentry tower we attacked."

"The patrol group that received the intelligence defeated the elite of the Ogres."

"They have now abandoned the sentry tower and are heading back to Twilight City."

"According to the intelligence from the Ogres."

"They have received support from a mercenary group."

"It is estimated that they have left the outskirts of the Ogre Forest."

"The Ogres have no power to stop them."

"So~"

"We must intercept them halfway."

"We must not let them return to Twilight City." "The news came from the Castle." "" "" "" "" "" " "" "" ""E." "One thousand."

"Will it be too many?"

Hailsen nodded.

"Yes, it is too many, but in order to avoid accidents."

"Let's set off as soon as possible."

"After all, the other side has mercenaries guarding them."

"Yes, sir!"

The subordinates could only agree reluctantly.

But they were a little bit dissatisfied in their hearts.

One thousand guards cavalry.

Hehe!

What kind of mercenaries can stop so many cavalry!!

They will be scared to death by then!!

"Da Da Da~"

On the road to Weiguang City.

Thousands of legions are on the way.

In the middle of this legion.

It is Christian and Fang Yuan.

"Sir."

"We are on an escort mission this time."

"It's not good to bring too many soldiers."

"So let Loyes lead the troops to stay near the Ogre Forest."

"Fiona brought people to guard in the dark."

"Including these people now."

"There are only a little over 10,000 soldiers guarding you."

"But please rest assured, sir."

"This amount of force can definitely guarantee your safety."

Fang Yuan nodded slightly after hearing these words.

He looked at the patrolling mercenaries escorting not far away.

These people looked at the thousands of warriors wearing elite armor escorting them.

They all showed incredible expressions on their faces.

They never knew that in this northern border.

There was such a powerful mercenary corps.

They were all guessing Fang Yuan and their origins.

And at this moment.

There was a sound of horse hooves in front.

"Report."

"Lord."

"Lord Fiona found an ambush cavalry ahead."

"They are masked."

"Seems a little unfriendly."

Hearing this.

Fang Yuan was a little amused.

"Unfriendly?"

"Tell Fiona."

"Just kill them!"

Christian on the side advised.

"Lord."

"I don't know if they are enemies or friendly troops coming to support."

"Contact them first, and it won't be too late to confirm their identities."

"Why not surround them quietly first."

Fang Yuan thought about it and nodded.

After all, if the friendly troops were killed by mistake.

This led to the failure to complete this side mission.

That would be a bit troublesome.

And this time when entering the secret realm, my main mission is to investigate the truth.

If all the people were killed.

Where to find the truth.

"Then surround them quietly!"

"Wait until we arrive to decide whether to attack."

"Yes, sir!"
