I'm sweating profusely, 5 gold coins, plus the bright red flag that Montoya pulled out, it's enough for someone to think of you Chapter 523: A Great Gift A large group of men and horses marched on the snow.
The snow in the field was so deep that it almost reached the knees, but fortunately, the vanguard cavalry had already trampled on the road, and it had melted a lot, but the snow and mud were mixed together, and it turned into a cloud of black mud along the way.
The advance of the large army was not fast.
As a backup for the Montoya cavalry troops, and as a central army on this expedition, the number of this army reached nearly 5,000.
More than 3,000 of them were mobilized from the escorts of various chambers of commerce.
After these escorts arrived at the Northwest Fortress, they were originally stationed around the town behind the Northwest Fortress to rest and spend the winter, planning to wait for the beginning of spring before going north to exit the customs and stationed in various fortresses.
At this time, suddenly Chen Daolin gave an order and ordered everyone to leave the northwest fortress and assemble north.
Naturally, such an order will not be supported by many people.
After all, these people are the escort of the Chamber of Commerce in their bones, not a real regular army.
It's not Chen Daolin's own descendants, where can he really fight for others, not to mention this kind of cold winter and moon weather, hiding in the northwest fortress and resting safely, roasting in the house, drinking wine and eating meat, is much better than running to the north, traveling long distances in the ice and snow, and being ready to fight with the orcs at any time The morale is not high, and it even looks a little dull.
But Chen Daolin didn't care too much about this.
He looked at the advancing soldiers around him, and those who bowed their heads and were silent, hurrying away with their heads down, were his own men and horses.
And in the second half of the line, when those walked, they couldn't help but turn their heads and whisper complaints.
It's the escort of those chambers of commerce.
Or is the time too tight Chen Daolin sighed secretly in his heart.
If you give yourself a few more months, reorganize the escort teams of these chambers of commerce, and calmly gather the morale of the army, at least it will not be like now.
Although he now has nearly 4,000 people, he can actually be said to be a rabble.
Although in terms of the quality of individual soldiers, the strength of the escort team of these chambers of commerce is definitely not bad, and it may even be higher than that of ordinary regular troops.
But from the point of view, it's far from the same.
I can only fight with the wind.
If it is a tough battle, an ordinary encounter may cause this improvised army to collapse in an instant.
Chen Daolin sneered in his heart.
This time.
He quickly ran back from the front and came to Chen Daolin's side, and sitting on the horse was his disciple, the necromancer, and now Chen Daolin's home chef McQueen.
In such a cold weather, McQueen's face was covered with sweat, and some beads of sweat had frozen into ice beads hanging on it, and he looked as if his head was white.
"Teacher.
Our degree is too slow.
McQueen said in a low voice: "It can't go on like this, the distance between us and Lord Montoya's cavalry is too long, and once something happens, I'm afraid it won't be too late to respond." ” Chen Daolin nodded. didn't say anything, and whispered: "Where is Montoya?"
"Lord Montoya has just sent Ade back to report that they have arrived at the fort where the patrol encountered the orcs a few days ago, and are temporarily stationed on the spot.
Wait for the order of the adult. ” "I didn't encounter any enemies along the way," Chen Daolin narrowed his eyes.
"Nope."
McQueen wiped the ice beads from his head and shook his head.
Chen Daolin thought for a while and shouted loudly: "Lucius" In the line behind him.
Lucius ran up as fast as he could.
The riding skills of the son of the governor were very good, and he rode his horse to Chen Daolin's side, and without waiting for Lucius to speak, Chen Daolin asked, "Is there any news at home?"
Lucius's face was serious, and he said quickly in a short tone: "Moving" Because of his severe stuttering, the son of the governor had now developed a new habit of speaking, that is, to be as silent as possible, and to use as simple words as possible when he really wanted to speak.
It's quite a bit of a pity for words.
Chen Daolin nodded: "Okay, keep in touch with your family at any time, and send at least three fast horses to contact you every day."
McQueen glanced at Lucius, and then at Chen Daolin: "Teacher" "Baron Pierre is still very safe in doing things, I think it will take three or four days at most, and they will complete the preparations for the evacuation."
Chen Daolin said lightly: "Our task is to try to win them as much time as possible. ” “” McQueen's body was shocked, and he stared at Chen Daolin in surprise: "Teacher, what do you mean?"
McQueen was amazed Isn't this expedition to defeat the orc robbers who came to attack, isn't it to fight hard, expel those orc robbers, and keep the Northwest Fortress, isn't it to scare these orcs away fiercely, so that they don't dare to spy on the Northwest Fortress again But why did the teacher say such a thing at this moment?
Chen Daolin laughed and looked at McQueen: "I don't understand" "I just don't understand."
McQueen scratched his head: "Teacher, do you think we can't win this battle?"
Chen Daolin squinted his eyes, faced the cold wind, looked into the distance, and said lightly: "You can win if you win." ” "So, then why do you still say you want to evacuate" "If you win the war, you have to evacuate the northwest fortress."
Chen Daolin sighed faintly.

"Well, how do you say that," McQueen said, his mouth wide open.
Chen Daolin laughed dryly: "A few days ago, I already figured out that I was tricked by that woman. ” After a pause, Chen Daolin glanced at McQueen: "I'll tell you, this time, even if we win, we will have to evacuate the Northwest Fortress, and if we can't defend it, there is no need to defend it anymore."
"Ahh McQueen was startled and almost cried out.
"Don't you understand" Chen Daolin said lightly: "Those words said to the outside are just to appease people's hearts."
What expels the orcs, what blows with all his might, and scares the orcs away is just a bluff, in fact, I know in my heart that this battle is necessary to fight, but this battle is not fought to defend the northwest fortress.
Let's put it bluntly.
I am willing to fight this battle in order to use this battle to let the team see blood, inspire people with a victory, unite the hearts of the army, and completely subdue these troops.
As for the Northwest Fortress, I can't stay" McQueen wasn't stupid after all.
Those who can enter the Academy of Magic to study are naturally geniuses.
After thinking about it carefully, he immediately thought of the key point, and looked at Chen Daolin with wide eyes: "Teacher, what do you mean by those orcs?"
"Well, the orcs we're going to face.
Maybe it's not a lot, but it's not an orc bandit.
It must be a vanguard pathfinder sent by the regular army of orcs.
Even if we eat this batch of pathfinder chess pieces, the follow-up orc army will continue to come over, and we can't afford to fight or consume this little strength. ” "Then why do we still fight, it's better to evacuate early."
McQueen shook his head.
"If you evacuate without fighting, the hearts of the people below will be scattered," Chen Daolin said coldly: "Can we, the more than 10,000 people, continue to follow us, the foundation we have built with great difficulty, and the hearts of the people will be scattered."
Prestige is lost.
It's hard to pick it up anymore, not to mention that even if our people are still willing to follow our chambers of commerce, I used the benefits of the Northwest Fortress as bait and caught them in the bait, but now if we don't even do what they look like, I'm afraid that these guys will turn around and leave us."
He suddenly smiled lightly again: "Don't worry."
We will definitely win this battle, and since the orcs are a temptation, the force sent will definitely not be too strong.
This battle is clearly a whetstone sent by someone, why don't we take the opportunity to hone our own team to hone this one.
It's also a good use. ” McQueen's heart was a little empty.
Hearing his true intentions from Chen Daolin's mouth, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
Young people who do not want to make a career, even if it is a magician.
He was also a young man with a strong blood.
The Northwest Fortress, which was originally ambitious to protect, has now become an abandoned son who must be abandoned, and it is inevitable that there is something to figure out in my heart.
"Don't worry, we will get this place back" Chen Daolin said this, deliberately vague: "I already have an arrangement for the backhand." ” Let's hope those two guys won't disappoint me.
Sneeze Dixon sneezed hard.
Rubbing his red nose vigorously, the young magician shrunk his neck and shuddered, "This damn weather, I'm about to freeze to death." ” The two horses walked slowly and lonely on the snowy field, surrounded by sparse trees, and Captain Hook walked ahead, sitting on his horse, sometimes waving his knife and cutting down the branches that stood in front of him.
"I said captain, I have been to the north several times in the past few years, and I have never seen such cold weather I have read the information in the academy, for more than a hundred years, the north has not been so cold and snowed so much" Captain Hook didn't speak, it was a straight face.
"Why don't you talk to me," exclaimed Dixon, disgruntled.
"You're too unlucky, I don't talk to you anymore, and I don't get a little unlucky."
Hook said coldly.
Dixon rolled his eyes.
At this moment, suddenly the horse under the crotch suddenly neighed, and Dixon was startled Hook had already turned and jumped off his horse, raised the knife in his hand, and slashed forward As soon as he snorted, he saw a white object smashed head-on on the snow Hook slashed at it, splitting the thing in half It turned out to be a tree stump that had been buried under the snow and smashed over.
Then I heard a whistling, and in the surrounding snow, the ground rose up, and a hundred and ten figures jumped out at the same time These hundred and ten figures, all of them were furry wolf warriors, with majestic bodies, holding bright knives in their hands, full of fangs, roaring, jumping out of the dug snow pits one by one, and surrounded them at the same time Hook's eyes widened, and he saw in the distance some wolf riders emerging from the woods and staring around Can't run away Hook immediately made a judgment in his mind If it's just some orc warriors in ambush, but if the other party has wolf cavalry, then these two of them won't be able to escape no matter what.
The wolf warriors had already surrounded them, and Hook was holding his knife and retreating step by step.
Behind him, Dixon had already jumped off his horse and shouted, "We are Darling Chen's disciples, we want to see your leader" The wolf warriors were still pressing, and after Dixon had shouted twice, he heard a whistle in the distance.
The sound of the whistle seemed to be the long howl of a wolf, and these pressing wolf warriors suddenly stood firm and stopped in place.
A wolf rode up, rushed out of the woods, rushed through the snowfield, and came to the two of them.
On top of the majestic giant wolf, there sat a burly wolf warrior, dressed in pale golden fur and leather armor, looking extremely strong "Darling Chen's disciples" The wolf warrior said coldly, squinting at Hook and Dixon, and suddenly nodded: "I remember that you came a few months ago and gave me a batch of gifts. ” Dixon walked a few steps with a smile, lightly pressed Hook's arm holding the knife, pressed down the knife in Hook's hand, and then spread his arms and stood in front of the wolf rider: "You just got a good lead, we did come once a few months ago, but unfortunately we didn't see you last time, I only saw your men."
However, you must have received the gift from our teacher, and you have also received the kindness of our teacher. ” "The gift was received, but it was not kindness, and we have to see again."
The wolf knight laughed wildly twice and whistled, and the wolf riders in the distance around them all turned around and soon disappeared into the mountains and forests.
And the warriors of the wolf clan in front of them also put away the knives in their hands and retreated to its side.
"I can't imagine that Ling Chen still remembers my old friend."

The Wolf Rider sneered: "Say it, explain your intentions." ” Dixon took a deep breath, but his eyes fell on the sword in the wolf rider's hand.
Dixon remembered that there were several long swords of this shape in the hands of the teacher Darling Chen.
He immediately judged that he had seen the biggest goal of this trip.
"Presumably, you are the noble prince of the wolf clan, His Highness Lei."
Lei looked at the human in front of him coldly, a pair of wolf eyes narrowed, and then said slowly: "Our wolf clan does not have as much red tape as you humans, what His Highness is not His Highness, my name is Lei" "That's right, the teacher asked us to come here just to see you."
Dixon said slowly: "The things that the teacher asked us to send last time were some thoughts from old friends, and this time we sent a heavier gift. ” "What a gift" Dixon glanced at Captain Hook and said loudly, "For example, your wish, our teacher, is willing to contribute to the great cause of His Highness Ray."
