Riva and his team's plan was obviously successful. Although Riva and his team were not clear about it, Qin Xiaoxia understood that the orc army had lost at least one-third of its troops in the flood.
A small group of people have crossed the river but have not made much progress. The majority of people who have not crossed the river can only sigh at the sight of the river for the time being.
On the top of the mountain, Youyi looked at the rolling torrent below. The water seemed endless and looked extremely terrifying.
She looked at Riva and the wounded soldier Gurian who was being supported by him with excitement.
"We succeeded!!! What do you think of the orcs now? Have many of them drowned? Are they crossing the river now?"
"Yes!! A lot of people will drown!"
Gurian smiled and looked up at the sky.
"Only Lord Riva can observe the changes in the stars in the sky so accurately. According to Lord Riva's previous calculations, the number of troops of the Wild Beastmen may be between 100,000 and 200,000. They will choose to cross the river at night. They are impatient and will not wait. It will take a long time for such a large number of people to cross the river."
"The torrent will continue to accumulate force along the canyon, and when it reaches the open area, the impact will form a fan, which will definitely cause immeasurable losses to the wild beastmen!"
The other soldiers, whose muscles were aching, also looked into the distance with anticipation, as if they could hear the panicked roars and death wails of the wild orcs when they saw the flood.
"Oh, should we run? Those Sogians down there are probably going crazy..."
Yui teased in a strange tone that sounded very earthly, pointing at the two sides of the dam below the cliff.
Countless torches have been lit there.
The Sogians at the foot of the mountain were all in an uproar. The fall of the statue of Junobitel II was a big deal, and the collapse of the dam was an even bigger deal. Countless troops had already gone up the mountain to investigate the cause of the statue's fall.
All the Sogians who knew about this were terrified, and some even thought it was a warning of disaster from heaven.
Looking at the torches at the foot of the mountain, Gurian smiled.
"Ms. Yui is right. It's no fun being surrounded. Lord Riva, can we retreat now?"
Riva was also watching the reaction down the mountain. After hearing Gurian's suggestion, he turned his head to look at the dozen or so soldiers around him and waved briefly.
"retreat!"
Riva had discussed this with Youyi long ago. Anyway, as long as it was Gurian's suggestion, they would just follow it without any psychological pressure.
…
Time is a very important factor in war, and the general of the Wild Beast King is also aware of this.
And the flood came so strangely that it was very likely that someone on the Sogian side had realized something, or perhaps a Sogian had successfully escaped when breaking through the border before, which made the upper echelons of the Sogian Kingdom decide to destroy the dam.
Although unexpected, war is always changeable. Most of the Wild Beastmen army marched directly south, preparing to cross the Lingshan Mountains and attack the Bia Kingdom.
…
It was not until four days later that the scouts, who had been rushing back day and night, returned to a border military garrison of the Kingdom of Biya with urgent military intelligence they had discovered.
The news brought so much fear to the highest commander here that he turned pale. He immediately released the two carrier eagles and brought the terrible result to General Baspar.
But the carrier eagle had only been flying for less than half a day when the wild orcs' vanguard, the wolf cavalry, arrived.
The 500-man soldiers of the Biya Kingdom military station made a desperate defense in fear, and were completely wiped out after leaving behind the lives of 60 wolf riders.
A muscular orc on the battlefield looked at a spear on his leather armor. The spear had pierced through the protection and made a bloody hole in the muscle of his shoulder.
"puff……"
Pulling out the spear, he looked at the battlefield in front of him. The gate of the Soma camp had collapsed and corpses were strewn across the ground.
“Woohoo… woo…”
Several ownerless wolves were wandering around the battlefield, tearing at the corpses.
"Heh...the Soma people of Biya are still stronger than those rubbish of Sogian after all. They actually cost us the lives of 60 warriors!"
Don't underestimate the fact that 500 Soma people only got 60 Warg Riders. This is actually a remarkable achievement. After all, there are nearly a thousand Warg Riders, and the Wargs themselves are also powerful, and the number is not proportional. Not only do they have the advantage of cavalry, but they also have elite orcs. Although the Soma people have camp gates, they are useless to the Warg Riders.
…
It was almost two days later when the carrier eagle flew over the gathering place of the Biya Kingdom army.
The carrier eagle can use air currents to fly continuously at high altitudes for many days, but it was already exhausted after these two days.
"Jiu ...
The cry of an eagle was heard in the sky, and the scout camp below, which was responsible for observing the carrier eagles, immediately heard the cry of the carrier eagles.
The three scouts immediately took out their whistles and blew them rhythmically.
At the sound of the whistle, the two signal eagles circling in the sky began to descend and landed on a special eagle platform.
“Jiuuuuuu…”
A few pieces of bloody meat were thrown over. Two hawks grabbed the pieces of meat, stepped on them, and began to tear them into pieces.
The two scouts carefully avoided the eagle's beak and took out the intelligence from the letter barrel at its feet.
"Red letter with blood on it!!!"
Seeing the color of the intelligence letter, the scouts around were all frightened.
The red letter with blood edge is a warning method used by the chief officer delivering intelligence, who cuts his own finger and smears it on the edge of the letter paper. It represents an absolute crisis and urgency!
Several scouts did not dare to stay any longer and immediately rode on the horned beasts beside them and sprinted towards the main army camp.
"Blood Bian Xin!!! Blood Bian Xin!!! Get out of the way!! Everyone get out of the way!!! Even if you are killed, don't hesitate!!!"
The horned beasts were galloping wildly in this huge military camp under the continuous swing of their riders' whips. At this moment, the scouts did not care about any military camp regulations at all. Even if there were officers blocking the way, they had the immunity to kill them.
…
A moment later.
"What!!!"
Baspar stood up from his seat in astonishment, and Dansen and other generals beside him were also stunned, the latter being speechless.
In fact, even Baspar, who was sent out on the mission, did not think this would come true.
He was now clutching the silk letter paper tightly, reading the message on it.
"There are tens of thousands of them, and there will be more... They have already passed through the border of Xiwa Peak on Lingshan Mountain... How long have they been hiding!!!"
Hessman clutched the teacup tightly in his hand and turned to look at Dansen on the side.
"Dansen, what else do you have to say?"
"What are you talking about? Send the damn troops quickly!!! If the orcs are really allowed to come, or even if they rush into Sogian, there will be serious consequences!!"
"Where is the Marshal? Where is he at this time? This damn prince!"
Dansen burst into curse words.
"Never mind, I'm going to sort out the military affairs and leave immediately!!"
"Dansen!!!"
Baspar came to his senses and called him, but the latter stopped and looked at him without saying anything.
"It would be fine if we sent troops as soon as we received the information, but now... it's too late... Oh, bring up the soldier who delivered the information!!"
"Okay, I'll go and remove his shackles myself!"
Dansen rushed out of the tent.
A moment later, a half-dead soldier was carried into the tent by Dansen himself and an officer. The soldier was holding a water bag and frantically drinking water from it.
"Woo... cough cough cough... gu gu... cough cough..."
"Hehehehe...the army...has the army been sent out...hehe..."
The soldier's consciousness was a little fuzzy before, but now that he has recovered, the first thing he asked is whether his intelligence was useful.
Dansen actually didn't dare to look at him.
"No, we did the confirmation first, and now the news has come back to prove that your intelligence room is real, but it's too late."
Baspar answered his question.
"What else do you know? Tell me the details again in detail."
The soldier looked at the generals in the big tent. Each of them was strong and heroic, and each of them looked anxious and uneasy. Suddenly, he found it a little funny.
“Hahahaha…hahahahahaha…Lord Riva and Gurion are right. You won’t believe it at all, and you won’t be able to make it in time. Half of the kingdom’s western territory will be surrounded by the wild orcs…”
All the generals were startled.
"But fortunately, we were well prepared. It doesn't matter if I didn't succeed. They should have succeeded, they must have succeeded!!!"
"What are you talking about?"
Hersman walked over and helped the soldier sit up. The soldier looked at him and spoke without hiding anything. At this time, it no longer had any impact.
"We have nearly thirty people in total. Two groups will go to warn here and Sogian. I guess they didn't succeed there either. Another group will go into the western border of the kingdom in disguise and secretly incite the people to flee. The remaining dozen or so will be responsible for blocking the orc army and preventing them from crossing the Gulot River."
"Stop? More than a dozen people?"
Dansen couldn't help but yell, this was simply unbelievable.
"Haha, of course you think it's impossible, but that doesn't mean no one can do it. With the Black Ranger Lord Riva and Gurion, we can do it!"
