Chapter 50: Cornered (1)


Disappointed that he didn't get the information he wanted, Lorne heard that Doug was just picking up nice things.

But this also shows that Doug has no ill intentions towards him, otherwise, it would be Baker's words.

It is estimated that no matter how ugly the words are, he can say them out loud.

After exchanging pleasantries, Doug gave Lorne face.

Lorne also brought his friendly side to each other, and when he followed Doug into the guard post where he was stationed, their relationship had become quite close.

Arriving at Doug's post, Lorne realized that there was nothing wrong with calling his territory a doghouse.

It can be seen from the size of the sentry that the status of a viscount and a baron is not even the slightest difference.

First of all, their doors are made of solid materials covered with iron.

The wall is not just made of wood, and the rooms inside are not simple rammed earth houses.

Anyway, everything is better than his own, not to mention the soldiers standing guard.

Thinking about the stupid look of his men, Lorne felt angry.

Although he was a good fighter, he couldn't bear the trouble of having to worry about everything.

"Doug, your place is nice.

It's much better than mine."

With sincere envy, Lorne and Doug were already calling each other by their names.

Lorne thought Doug's place was good, but Doug himself didn't think so.

There are no entertainment items, and you have to be scared all the time.

How can it be good?

"That's it, let's stay together.

Anyway, I can leave here in two months.

Let's not talk about this.

Come on, let's eat something first.

You must have worked hard during this period."

After hearing Doug say that he still has two months to leave, Lorne realizes that he has found another potential helper who can join him in the robbery.

But during the conversation with Doug, he also realized that this guy was really not brave enough, so he brought it up now.

You will most likely be rejected on the spot.

With the thought that the future is long, Lorne carefully took stock of Doug's strength.

By rough calculation, there were probably nearly two hundred soldiers.

There are quite a lot of people, but the only high-level combat power is the knight Ed who has been following Doug.

If you really want to be shameless, you can probably borrow dozens of soldiers from Doug at most.

No more timid Doug would have to worry about his own safety.

While planning what to say to Doug, he chewed unknown dried meat.

Until dinner was over and he went to bed, Lorne didn't find a suitable opportunity to tell Doug about his audacious plan.

But without Lorne taking action, the orcs felt confident that they had come to the door.

Nearly two thousand orcs led by Warren successfully surrounded Doug's sentry under the cover of darkness.

Lorne had only made a guarantee during the day that the orcs were still far away.

Not wanting to sleep for a few hours, Warren led the orc and slapped him hard on the face.

When Lorne was woken up by the noise, he was confused and didn't know what happened.

When they arrived outside the door, they saw flames rising into the sky.

It turned out that the beacon inside the sentry was lit.

For a moment, his eyes couldn't adapt.

Lorne was so dodged that he could hardly open his eyes.

He was at a loss when suddenly a man grabbed him and shook him while shouting hysterically: "Didn't you say that the orcs are far away from us?

Didn't you say that we are safe?

Didn't you say that it's okay to leave tomorrow?

Tell me, How should we go out tomorrow?”

The voice sounded like it was Doug, but from the other person's tone, Lorne realized that Doug's mood was not quite right.

It seems to have collapsed.

He was fine not long ago, but he suddenly fell ill just a few hours later.

Lorne struggled to free himself from Doug's hands, trying to calm him down.

"Don't get excited, what happened?

Why did you even light the beacon?"

Lorne never considered himself an important person, so he did not believe that the orcs would pursue him again and again.

"What happened, don't you know what happened?

Orcs, there are orcs everywhere.

We are surrounded.

If we don't set off beacon fire to call for help, can we rely on ourselves?"

Doug answered Lorne's question quite clearly, but then he lost control again. , "It's you, you must have brought the orcs here.

You still have an orc with you, you must be the orc's spy.

Help, there are spies and there are spies."

Frightened by his suspicion, Doug didn't dare to pester Lorne anymore and shouted that he turned around and started running away.

Excluding Doug's fantasy in the second half, Lorne was also stunned by the information he got.

The orcs have surrounded the sentry.

Can they be saved?

His head was full of doubts.

In order to confirm the information, Lorne ran up the guard wall.

Under the dim light of the moon, there are shadows everywhere as far as the eye can see.

Although the distance is too far, the light is not bright enough.

Lorne couldn't see clearly the faces of those figures, but their strong bodies clearly showed their identities.

Looking around, there is no gap in everything.

The orcs did indeed surround them in the sentry.

"Damn it, he's really haunted," he couldn't help but curse.

Lorne had withstood several experiences of blood and fire and was much calmer than Doug.

At least he didn't become as insane as Doug because of his fear.

"Robert" shouted Robert's name.

After finding his knight, Lorne ordered, "Gather everyone together."

"Sir Fast, what do you want to do?"

Ed followed Lorne's voice and came to him, and Doug followed him.

This fat boy was probably comforted by Ed.

He was shivering but did not behave as abnormally as before.

It was actually obvious what Lorne wanted to do, now that he was surrounded by orcs.

Naturally, they can only rush out.

Are they still waiting to die?

Originally, those who tried to rush out on their own might suffer heavy losses.

But now that he saw Ed, he immediately thought of a joint breakout method.

"Knight Keith, there are too many orcs outside.

The sentry can't stop so many orcs at all.

You will die sooner or later if you stay inside.

Why don't we work together to break out?"

Keith was Ed's last name, and he and Ed hadn't gotten to know each other well enough to call each other on a first-name basis.

After listening to Lorne's suggestion, Ed did not speak.

Doug spoke on the side: "Yes, you will definitely die if you stay.

Why don't we try to rush out."

After Ed's comfort, Doug no longer thought that Lorne was a spy for the orcs.

And he also understood that even if the orcs were really lured here by Lorne, blaming each other at this time would only accelerate their demise.

Both young men were inclined to break out and escape, and they waited for Ed to nod in agreement.

But the experienced Ed can judge the approximate number of orcs outside at a glance.

There are more than a thousand orcs.

How can they break through the tight defense line with their dozens of cavalry:
