Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Ryan and Allendo originally thought that after their information was submitted, General Keenster, the leader of the Thor Fortress garrison, would meet with them once to learn about the situation in person, but who knows to wait, wait for more than ten days and there is no movement.

In the past ten days, the orc wolf cavalry has become more and more rampant. Not only did they push their blockade 10 kilometers south, but they also pushed into the area ten kilometers outside the Thor Fortress several times. That was just standing in Thor. The area visible from the fortress wall.

As General Keenster said, the time to come will come. With the emergence of an army of orcs, an army of orcs successively came to the outside of Thor Fortress.

General Keenster immediately raised the security of Thor's fortress to the highest level, and arranged for the soldiers to take turns to guard it day and night to prevent the orc army from attacking at any time.Some subordinates approached General Keenster, suggesting that taking advantage of the opportunity of the orc army being camped, sending heavy cavalry to assault them may be able to obtain unexpected benefits.However, the defending General Keenster was worried about encountering an ambush by the orcs, so he rejected the suggestion on the spot, and issued a strict order: "Anyone who goes to war will be executed on the spot for treason!"

As a result, the garrison of Thor Fortress watched as the fifty thousand orcs lined up in a square formation on the wall, waiting about ten kilometers away from him, and further afield, more than fifty thousand orcs were setting up camps day and night. .

After three busy days, the camp of the orcs was built about fifteen kilometers from the Thor Fortress. The entire camp stretched for more than ten kilometers and was divided into several parts.On the periphery of the camp, facing the Thor Fortress, the orcs dug out crisscross pits.Each deep pit is ten meters wide and at least five meters deep. At first glance, it is known that it is used to prevent human sneak attacks and cavalry assaults.Not all of these deep pits were dug through. About every 100 meters, there would be a section of about ten meters that was not passive. It would be a passage for orc troops to dispatch.

After these passages, the orcs used the excavated dirt to pile up dirt hills about three meters high. Most of these were stationed by orc archers. As long as these dirt hills were guarded, they could be condescending to guard against the human army from invading the orcs camp from these passages.Under such tight defense, the human army will pay a very painful price if it wants to successfully step through the deep pit and enter the orc camp.

In the most central part of all the camps, a ten-meter-high dirt mountain was piled up. A huge tent was built under the dirt mountain. I believe it was the residence of the highest leader of the orc army, and the other camps were like stars holding the moon. Like guarding the center.Then the scene of the orcs staying in the Thor Fortress stunned the garrison. A full 400,000 troops entered the camp in an orderly manner. All their soldiers held tightly in their hands, all of which were fine iron weapons.

Although the Thor Fortress is far away from the orc camp, it is so far that it is almost hard to see clearly with the naked eye. Although General Keynst is not allowed to fight in the garrison, it does not mean that General Keynst will not send a team to investigate.The orc armies who are waiting for them ignore these scouts on horseback at all, and only warn them with bows and arrows when they are close to them.

These scouts brought back news that shocked General Keenster: 400,000 orc elite troops, all equipped with iron weapons, although this iron weapon is inferior to the steel weapons deployed by the most elite armies of mankind, it has reached And surpassed the weapon level of an ordinary human army.The soldiers of the orc army are full of spirits, high morale, and powerful combat effectiveness.

The more terrifying news is that on the passage between the orc camp and the blood fortress, there will be a military camp about every ten kilometers. Although the number of people stationed in each military camp is only a few thousand, it is necessary to attack the orcs. The supply line is almost impossible, because as long as the orcs' transport troops strung the ox carts for transporting food with iron ropes and held them in place as an obstacle for an hour, they could receive more than 10,000 people's assistance.The human cavalry in the Thor Fortress is only 10,000. Even if they are dispatched, let alone whether they can escape the detection of the orc scouts, even if they successfully attack the opponent's supply line, they will be surrounded by orc reinforcements because they have no backup. What's more, General Keenster didn't have the charm to send the only 10,000 heavy cavalry.

At this time, General Keynst remembered that there seemed to be a piece of information given to him by a mercenary group called Ryan. He searched for more than 30 minutes in his residence, and finally found a lot of documents. At the bottom, he turned out the piece of information that was worthless to him.

It is undeniable that this information did not come from the hands of a professional scout at all. Many key points are vaguely written, and even a lot of information that should have been the key point is ignored. However, this information is about the orc army. The description is completely correct.General Keenster felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had asked the mercenaries who wrote this information in person earlier, perhaps he would have been prepared earlier.

General Keenster immediately sent his soldiers to summon Ryan and others.However, his guards searched the entire "No. 2 Army Camp" but failed to find Lane and others. Later, they only found out in the Mercenary Guild that this Lane was in the "No. 1 Camp" giant dumper position.

The reason why Ryan and the others are in this place that ordinary mercenaries can't get close to is all because of Lille and York.During the one month that Ryan and Allendo went out, Lille and York were also worried about them, but these two high-level magicians had their own things to do, and it was impossible to go to the city wall to watch day by day like Flanner.When Ryan and the others came back, Lille and York went to the door immediately and invited Ryan and Allendo to come to their residence.

Who knows that General Keenster didn’t take the intelligence that Ryan and Allend had risked to heart at all. Ryan and Allendo were bored, and they came to Lille and York’s position next to this giant boulder truck. residence.They were chatting happily, and General Keynst’s soldiers approached the door.

Ryan and Allendo left without saying a word, and immediately followed General Keynst's soldiers.In the command post of Thor's Fortress, General Keenster received Ryan and others.Ryan and Allendo once again told about their experiences in the North Taren Prairie.This time, because of the presence of General Keynst who is familiar with military affairs, many things that Ryan and Allendor had overlooked were slowly reminded and truthfully told.

After hearing the description of Ryan and Allendo, General Keenster waved his hand to send them away.In the hearts of Ryan and Allendo, they were dissatisfied with General Keenster’s behavior. They had shelved the information they had risked to obtain, but later found out that this information was important, and called people for questioning. , And so rude to people.

However, Ryan and Elendo still didn't say anything. After all, now that the orc army is near the city, perhaps General Keenster is under tremendous pressure.However, after Ryan and Allendo returned to their residence, they still complained to Flanner. After all, they paid a lot for this information, but they did not get the attention they deserve. Can't be happy.

Flanner comforted them with some kind words. After all, this General Keenster was born in a nobleman, and for several unknown mercenaries who came from civilians, doing so may have been very polite to him.After Ryan heard this explanation, he fell silent. This was the first time he felt the invisible but almost insurmountable gap between the nobleman and the commoner.
