Link the Orc

“Gräkkar. Say hello. The brother has just arrived. ”

Capcas brings a brother a little taller than him. Is he a chieftain that big? It may be the strongest of the Great Warriors, or it may not be long since become chieftain. The smallest chieftain I've ever met.

“Welcome. Brothers. Welcome to the Strong Brotherhood. I am Graccar.”

“Greetings, Gräkkar. I'm a quad. ”

Kurdish. I've never heard of it. If I'd been chief of the house in the south for five years, I'd have known his name. This area has only ever been to Orhi, so I don't know the name of the other chieftain.

“Kurdish has led his entire camp to join him. 2,000 people in total.”

Capcas explained it to me. He led us here. Good. If you brought the whole neighborhood, there'd be artisans there. Much more brothers have joined the force than I thought today, so it would be helpful to think it's difficult to complete the current Lizardman workarounds.

“You've joined many brave warriors and skilled craftsmen. Welcome, brother. ”

“I can't miss a big battle. ”

“Capkas. Serve the honorable warrior coup d 'état and the brave brothers and sisters who have followed him." ”

At first, it was awkward to greet the brothers who came like this, but I only thought about what he did when I went to see Kamini, and now I'm somewhat familiar with it.

When I was out of coup and I thought I couldn't hear my voice,

“That's a shame.”

I spoke my mind.

“How many food tents are there? Northweald?"

“Twelve.”

“Twelve... I'm afraid we can't last a week with a group of cousins just joined us and 19,000 in the area right now. ”

There were more brothers who responded to my cry than I thought. I used the Scream of Assembly with all my strength, thinking that I would like to come just a little bit further than in Kampani, but I already have 15,000 brothers who are able to fight.

When I first used the 'Rally Cry’, I secured many Lizardman corpses through repeated wars and filled 26 food tents. By the way, I think it's been about 10 days since I used the 'Rally Cry', but I already have 12 left.

The problem is, we don't know how many more are coming.

Of course, it's good to have a lot of brothers. We can fight a battle of that magnitude. But on the one hand, your obligation as chief rests on your shoulders. The duty of not being able to starve the brothers and sisters who live in my neighborhood. It's dangerous to go on like this.

“I'll start organizing a hunting party tomorrow. ”

“Even if you go hunting, it's a problem. I've been out there once, but I don't know where they are. Lizardman's realm is really strange. ”

They're building houses on water. Isn't that weird?

“Not at all. There are a few places I know about the Lizardman. ”

The small Lizardman neighborhood that I checked when I repeated the days I had left behind as I entered the center of the Lizardman Realm for bigger fights. Fighting is not fun because of its small size, and I left it for Carroc to care about, but I think it will be good for food.

“Mihrach. Call the chieftain, the brothers of the great warrior. I have a job for them. ”

There were two more chieftain warriors who responded to my cry, with the exception of the new coup. They didn't bring the whole colony along like coup d 'état, but only the warriors. Soon, Mihrach brought them to the front of the tent.

One chieftain and seventeen great warriors gathered. The rest didn't find out where they were. It's okay. That's enough.

“Approximately two days down from here, there is a Lizardman section with 1,200 people. The number of warriors is 700. Brothers take the other Brothers 500 to fight and get the loot. ”

If you take a similar or larger number of warriors, the Lizardman does not come out of the water. That's why we have to take fewer brothers than them. I still believe I can win. The majesty of the monarchy, one of the abilities confirmed by North-urd, strengthens the strength of my brothers.

But since it's 200, it's going to be a pretty intense battle. That's better. Caroc would love that. If the brothers die... there's nothing we can do. All I can do is give you a chance to do the right thing. Afterwards, it is your responsibility to live and die.

“I see. Leave it to me. ”

“Believe me. Two of your brothers will lead the other 300, run exactly in that direction for three days, then search the perimeter. There will be 450 Lizardman warriors." Fight back and get your loot. ”

“Got it.”

“I will. ”

I ordered them one by one, and there were nine of them. The total number of brothers going there is 2,500. All the chieftains and great warriors who came here were thrown in.

You tell me to fight with fewer men than my enemies, and not one of them refuses. You're a brave Orc warrior.

“But how do you know where so many Lizardmen are? ”

One of the brothers asked. I was silent.

“Didn't you know? Gräkkar is a brother sent directly by Caroc. Caroc would have told us where they were. There's been a lot of this before. ”

“Grrrgh. Amazing. ”

As expected, Mihrach steps up and speaks for him. I can't tell the truth, and I can't lie. I can't tell you how grateful I am that Mihrach is with me in every situation like this. It's a good thing for me that he likes to move on.

I sent them away and returned to the tent.

“Well done, Gräkkar. ”

There is only Northman in the Tent. Capkass and Mihrach were gathering brothers who didn't fight for food in order to leave a demonstration of force.

“Hopefully we can get ahead of the fight. Is there no way?”

“Lizardman will decide when the battle begins. We don't have a choice. ”

Northweald is right. Of course, if you still decide to fight, you can invade any part of the Lizardman. However, he cannot pass the test of having to lead more than 10,000 brothers and fight an enemy of similar power.

If the opponent is a Dwarf or a Human, we can set a time when reinforcements will come to help them on their own as long as we surround them and wait.

But the vile Lizardmen, if they want to be disadvantaged, leave town without delay and run away. That's impossible.

“We should get ready for the Lizardman and wait for him to call us. ”

“How long do we have to wait? We can starve our brothers and sisters. ”

I've lived my whole life worry-free. You're making me nervous.

“Don't be so obsessed with your duties as chief. Brothers are free to choose what comes and goes. Think about it before you became chief. Did you think the chief gave you food? Or were you free to move and go hunting? ”

When I think about it, when I thought I was running low on food tents, I used to hunt with a hunting party, or I used to recruit a hunting party myself to get food.

“There are no brothers and sisters who think it's their fault that they're starving. The duty of weak brothers, females, and children is the duty of the strong. Although the chief has the greatest duty to be the strongest, it is the duty of every warrior, not just the chief. ”

“... I see. ”

I was worrying about nothing. Northweald has always enlightened me. Sometimes annoyed, but a good brother.

“It's a good thing, though, that you take your duty as chief so seriously. You'll make a fine chief. Gräkkar.”

“Of course you're saying that. Brother.”

I am a strong, honorable and brave warrior. It's only natural that I would be a good chief.

“And the battle will begin soon. ”

“Soon?”

“I put a lot of pressure on it for 10 days. There are more than 10 confirmed escaped Lizardman villages. I can't stand the pressure. They'll try to take care of us as soon as possible. In at least 10 days, the Lizardmen will be ready and invite us. ”

Northwest Urd said the 10th. He never said anything wrong except that he said I should have died the first time I met him.

Ten days... that'll have to wait. Prepare quickly, Lizardman. Whatever you're prepared to do, I'll destroy it with my own maze.

“Word on the street is it's going to be nearly 15,000. ”

Manen said the target was two roads underneath him and five other villages that had fled to his village.

“Isn't that the right number? ”

One of the loads asked.

“Not exactly. As you know, Orcs don't usually have excellent senses. I can't get close. Still, it should be about the same. ”

“Damn. It's growing fast. Is it always like this when you do something? ”

Roads on the Young Axe have never seen an Orc take a test to become a Grand Chief before, asked.

“No, not this much. I've seen it two times and heard it five times, and all seven times the number of warriors was under 15,000. ”

“But why so many this time? It seems to grow by more than 1,000 each day. Isn't this more than 20,000? ”

“Perhaps many Orcs have entered our realm at once these days. That's why there must have been many warriors who responded to the call of the Orcs about to become the Grand Chief. ”

“I think I can handle 20,000...”

The number of warriors in Manen's village is 12,000. Combined with the five lords who have joined them, the total number of warriors you bring in is 23,000. This side is stronger considering the Lizardman and the Orcs have almost the same skills.

“It was better. ”

Manen said.

“Otherwise, I thought we should clear up after the Orcs suddenly invaded our realm. Since the five villages have already joined, let's get the rest of the nearby villages together and wipe out the Orcs that have entered our land. ”

This is a way you can't afford food shortages as usual. However, since we were already stockpiling food to attack Orc lands, we can still use all the warriors in the war for a while.

If you collect a large number and separate them, you can reduce the damage. They won't have to travel far to their home base, so it will be easy for warriors to gather and consume less food.

“Sweep away the Orcs at once and march straight into the Orc realm. ”

Manen decides.

A week later, five more Lords responded to Manen's call.

“Dangerous. Orcs are gathering too fast. It is said to have already exceeded 25,000. ”

“What are you going to do? Manen.”

Together with the newly joined road, thirteen lords look to Manen.

“I can't wait anymore. At this rate, the Orc hordes will unite in one place. ”

The number of Lizardman warriors gathered here as the Five Lords joined forces is 37,000. We can still gather 20,000 more, but if we wait for them to come, we feel that the number of Orcs might be similar to theirs.

“I'll hit you first. ”

Manen has decided to attack.

“Welcome. Brothers. Welcome to the Strong Brotherhood. I am Graccar.”

“A great battle has summoned me. I am Gaftuk.”

“Welcome. Brothers. Welcome to the Strong Brotherhood. I am Graccar.”

“The famed Red Orc wants to be chief, of course he should join us. I'm Sakaa.”

I don't know how many times I see my new brother these days. Anyway, a lot. I thought the brothers were growing faster a week ago, but now they're faster. As soon as I heard my shout, I left and said it took me a long time to get there because I'm unfamiliar with Lizardman territory.

“How many brothers are there in the neighborhood now? ”

“30,000.”

North-Urdha replies.

“........ ”

I never imagined it. More brothers than I've ever seen in my life.

“Do you think Lizardman has the strength to handle this number of brothers? ”

30,000. Only nine chieftain warriors, including myself, and more than 70. Who can handle this?

“Don't worry. Lizardman is strong enough. ”

“Do you really think so? ”

It seems that Northweald and I know the Lizardman differently. Northweald firmly believes that the Lizardmen will fight this great power. The Lizardman I know is too mean to run away when he meets a strong enemy.

Crack, Crack, Crack! Crack, Crack, Crack! Crack!

At that moment, you hear the cry of the giant Lizardman echoing everywhere.

“Look at that. I thought you said the Lizardmen were ready to fight. ”

The Lizardman I know makes that noise in front of the Orcs. When they lure us into battle.

< 99 Chief > End
