As a result, the long-awaited orcs became suspicious.
However, this anxiety was temporary, because just as the two were talking, a report suddenly came from outside.
"Sir Sir Wise, Captain Barbarian Bull, the spies we sent to the direction of the Forge have returned!"
"Let him in!" Captain Manniu immediately spoke out after hearing this.
"How's the exploration going? Have you found any traces left by that team?" When the spies entered the room, Captain Manniu immediately asked.
"Lord Wise Man, Captain Barbarian Bull, my subordinates went to the direction of the Furnace Castle to investigate according to the order. The human team is indeed coming towards our direction, and has passed through the areas of several tribes!"
"you sure?"
The wise men of the fox tribe and the tauren captain of the beast tribe immediately spoke out to confirm.
"Sir, I am sure, because the traces of tens of thousands of people passing by are very obvious!"
"How lucky is it that a team of tens of thousands of people managed to escape so many small tribes sent by us?" It was confirmed that Nalant's team had not changed its route.
Both the wise man and the bull captain breathed a sigh of relief.
But then the two of them felt incredible about the good luck of Narant and others.
Because they have arranged so many small tribes, let alone tens of thousands of people, even if there are only a thousand people, it is impossible to remain silent until now.
"Master Wise, what should we do now?" Captain Manniu looked at the old man of the Fox clan.
"Grandpa, how about I ride my mount to investigate!" Before the old man from the Fox tribe could speak, the young girl from the Fox tribe on the side began to request.
"Mia, there's no need for you to go out and search!" The fox tribe girl's suggestion was immediately rejected by the old man.
"To go from the border of our Orc Empire to the Black Rock Plains, we must pass through the Dead Leaf Swamp, and the Dead Leaf Swamp is very dangerous. Neither we, the Orcs or the humans, dare to go deep into it, so we only need to arrange enough tribes around the Dead Leaf Swamp.
Spies, then they will have no way to escape!"
"Grandpa, you are right in the Dead Leaf Swamp. Only those dirty goblins dare to go deep into the Dead Leaf Swamp. As long as we send enough tribes, we will definitely find traces of those humans!" The girl from the Fox tribe heard this.
The precious map I had seen in my grandfather's room immediately came to mind.
This map marked the Orc Empire and various surrounding terrains. There were only a few maps in the entire principality, and her grandfather, as an Orc wise man, happened to have one.
After a pause, the fox girl said again: "But Grandpa, will the number of tribes we send out now be a little less?"
"Yes, that human noble is related to whether we can obtain weapons for the empire this time. Therefore, Captain Manniu, you should immediately send people to summon all the tribes on the border and have them all garrison in Ku.
Leaf Swamp and the Edge of Empire.”
"Let's set off immediately and rush to the edge of the Dead Leaf Swamp!"
"Yes, Sir Wise Man!"
As the wise man from the fox tribe issued the order, all the small tribes in the western border of the orc empire started to move and quickly gathered around the Dead Leaf Swamp.
The movements of the orcs were quickly noticed by Nalant.
"Sir, there is another orc tribe ahead, numbering around three thousand people!"
"What about farther west?"
"Sir, Xiao Huihui also investigated just now, and there is also an orc tribe to the west!"
"What about the rear?"
"Sir, there are also orc tribes behind us. Although the distance is still more than fifty miles away, if we continue to stop here, they will arrive soon!"
"We are surrounded!" Nalant frowned immediately.
Although the orc tribes appeared very frequently in the past two days, they were not as densely packed as now, and there were no pursuers from behind.
They could completely rely on Xiao Huihui's guidance to pass through the gaps between these tribes silently.
But now, the orc tribes in front are denser than ever before. Let alone gaps, the opponent has already reached the point where there is an orc every 100 meters.
If your own team appears, I am afraid that you will immediately fall into the ocean of the beast tribe.
This time, the orcs really went to war.
Moreover, the interception point was quite accurately set on the dead leaf swamp.
Nalant had already heard from Rolle in the past that no strangers should enter this dead leaf swamp.
Because the swamp is not only easy for people and carriages to fall into, it is also a natural trap.
There are many monsters living inside. These monsters hide in the swamp and attack passing creatures for food. If you are not careful, a bloody mouth may open under your feet.
"Sir, how about we return immediately? There should be fewer orcs in the rear and we can break out?" Raymond saw his master's solemn face and immediately made a suggestion.
Because of the newly equipped armor with new inscriptions, the barbarian soldiers like Raymond became a lot more courageous.
However, such a proposal was naturally rejected by Narant.
If it was just those small tribes that broke through quickly according to Raymond, they should have a certain success rate.
But it was the plan made by the old man of the fox clan and the tauren who wanted to ambush him.
Therefore, once traces of yourself and others are revealed, they will definitely be bitten by the other party immediately.
Facing those tauren, Nalant and his subordinates now have no chance of winning.
"Damn it, since you are blocking my way, I won't go back yet!" Suddenly, Nalant felt fierce in his heart.
"Raymond, let the team head east immediately!"
"The east, sir, the east is the hinterland of the Orc Empire?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
"I am just planning to go deep into the Orc Empire and pass through their hinterland!" Nalant nodded.
Judging from the posture of the orcs ahead, all the small tribes on the orc border must have been recruited to the border of the Dead Leaf Swamp.
Therefore, Nalant could completely go deep into the orcs' hinterland and then take a detour back to the Black Rock Plains.
Of course, not everyone can do such a thing, because once discovered by the orcs, they will probably die more miserably, and there will be no way out.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The reason why Nalant made such a decision is also because of the investigative ability of little girl Shirley.
This is something that others cannot learn.
And all the subordinates looked at each other in shock when they heard that their master not only did not choose to retreat, but instead went deep into the hinterland of the beast tribe.
However, no one had any doubts about Nalant's order, and it didn't take long for Nalant's team to complete the turn.
Now they must rush as fast as possible before the orcs can react, so as to make a time difference.
Soon, Nalant led the team on the road deep into the hinterland of the orcs.
When Nalant's team actually set foot on the land of the Orc Empire, their marching speed became even faster.
Because although the orcs are barbaric and backward, they still have some dirt roads in their territory.
When the night gradually darkened, Nalant and others had already penetrated thirty miles into the territory of the Orc Empire.
Although every second counts now, and the sooner we return to the Storm Territory, the safer it will be, but considering that there are still barbarian women and children in the team, Nalant is still prepared to stop and rest for one night and wait for tomorrow morning before continuing forward.
At the moment, he chose a dense forest and asked the team to rest in the forest.
Naturally, the fire could not be used, and all the barbarians were gnawing on the dried meat cooked two days ago.
In this way, with the patrol of swift hawks and bees, Nalant's team spent the first night safely.
When it was still dark the next day, Nalant's team gathered again and continued to move deeper into the hinterland of the Orcs.
"Sir, Xiao Huihui reported that there is an orc tribe seven or eight miles ahead. However, that tribe seems to have become empty!" Not long after setting off, little girl Shirley received Xiao Huihui's investigation.
report.
"Well, let Xiao Huihui continue to explore!"
Nalant nodded. It was clear that just as he had guessed, all the orcs on the border of the orc empire had been transferred to the vicinity of the Dead Leaf Swamp.
Soon, Nalant led the team to the orc tribe camp where Xiao Huihui reported earlier.
The camp is not too big and should be a gathering place for the orcs with over a thousand people.
Nalant led his subordinates into the camp to search around, and after confirming that there were no orcs, they walked out of the camp gate.
Just when he was about to continue setting off with his team, Raymond suddenly ran over.
"Sir, we found an orchard near this camp. The fruit is very sweet!"
