Chapter 156, the pervasive plague, the determination of the sheep orc high priest, the roar of the r

On the vast grasslands, the war did not lead to a long-term stalemate.

Even though the strength gap between the two has reached a considerable extent.

Unexpectedly, it was the sheep orc looking for a decisive battle.

They could no longer endure the stalemate any longer.

The sheep orcs face many problems.

Plague, winter, and the army gradually becoming tired from the constant harassment.

Winter is coming soon, and even though this four-season pasture has towering mountains that resist part of the cold current, only sparse light snow will fall.

Not even enough to completely cover the grass.

But the cold that comes with it will also stop the grass from growing.

This time period is the most busy time period for all races on the grassland.

A large number of people must work day and night to stock up on fodder to prepare for possible accidents, and a place to spend the winter must be selected.

Semi-permanent camps were to be built on the most fertile grasslands.

To cope with the cold winter.

However, the war with the rat people greatly delayed the sheep orcs' winter preparations.

Even though the Rat War had ceased for a while, the small groups of rat troops that kept appearing seemed to be like locusts, and they continued to swarm into the depths of the grassland.

Let the sheep orcs be exhausted.

Running wildly on the grassland day and night, these wandering rat people are really too despicable.

Even if you just let one team go, it can easily lead to great disaster.

Some small tribes that had maintained smooth supply lines and voluntarily gathered at the edge of the battlefield because of the prestige of the goat orc high priest had begun to suffer casualties one after another in the attacks of these rat men.

Those cunning and despicable guys will lurk quietly after discovering the sheep orc tribe, waiting for night to fall.

The Skaven troops that can pass through the sweep of the Sheep Orc Knights are generally not large.

They are also unable to attack the sheep orc tribes head-on, even if these tribes are not large.

But you can sacrifice the basics and pursue the weak.

Sneak into a tent or a sheepfold in the dark, put down a fire, and in the flames, chaos reigns.

That's the opportunity.

Either they attack the old or young sheep orcs and run wildly into the darkness after they succeed, or they scare the giant sheep and then run around on the giant sheep, attacking and pulling up the lone giant sheep.

There won't be many things to gain. After being swept away by the sheep orc knights, the resisting rat people will not be much of a threat at all compared to the tribes they attacked.

But it's disgusting, and it keeps coming.

Like mice appearing in every possible and impossible corner.

A little commotion and chaos began to spread behind the goat orc army.

But these are just minor problems.

The same goes for urgent winter reserves.

As long as we are ruthless and slaughter a large number of giant sheep, we can survive this winter even without stocking up on supplies.

Sheep orcs are not pure vegetarians. To be precise, all orcs are omnivores. In terms of preferences, they are even more carnivorous.

The same goes for the sheep orcs.

Even though they cherish their giant sheep, it is only because of the continuous output of goat milk. If a giant sheep is so old that it cannot even produce goat milk, then it should be slaughtered. matter.

This is the treatment for female giant sheep.

The male giant sheep has other functions, such as breeding, riding and eating.

Even the most noble high priest Feng among the sheep orcs, his mount may not be as good as the giant male sheep specially used for breeding.

Winter is the breeding season for giant sheep.

Slaughtering giant sheep on a large scale at this time will cause big problems.

Next year there will be an unusual shortage of food, and there may even be a famine.

But for the high priest of the sheep orc, this was a problem that could be ignored for the time being.

The unfertile grassland meant that they were destined to be unable to take a long-term view, and they could only deal with the imminent crisis in front of them.

As for how to face the devastation after trying everything to defeat the Rat Man.

It's just another war.

On the grassland, Feng, the old high priest of the sheep orcs, looked far away at the rat war surrounded by the rat army.

The two sides faced each other again.

Shu Zhan still had that undisguised contempt and ridicule on his face.

In fact, Shu Zhan is indeed qualified to show such an expression.

Not too long has passed since the last battle between the two.

The army gathered by Shu Zhan's men was even more exaggerated.

But the team under the goat-orc high priest was inevitably desolate.

Because of a sudden plague.

Winter has not really come yet, and the plague has already appeared to be difficult to suppress.

The sheep orcs don't have any good solutions to the plague.

This is a terrible disaster, but it will be suppressed and eliminated by another disaster.

Every great epidemic on the prairie subsides in the bitter cold of winter.

Winter is coming, but it hasn’t arrived yet.

But this unknown plague has already begun to spread.

Diarrhea, vomiting, and when the condition becomes severe, clumps of milky white mycelium will appear on the body, and eventually mushrooms will begin to grow all over the body.

This is an extremely terrifying sight.

This is also the only reason why the Sheep Orc High Priest is so eager.

Unknowingly, most of the sheep orc knights have been infected.

By the time this strange plague was noticed, it was already too late.

Too many plans have to be abandoned altogether.

He didn't have many options left.

Hold on until the arrival of winter, praying in the cold for the plague to go away.

While most of the warriors are still able to fight, engage in a decisive battle with the rat men.

If he were younger, Feng wouldn't have much hesitation.

He would choose the second option without hesitation.

But he is no longer young.

So he chose the second option.

It's just that he is no longer as confident and arrogant as he was when he was young.

Not daring to make a decision easily, the old goat man summoned his warriors.

In that spacious tent.

He hesitated and expressed his thoughts, waiting for the thoughts of the young juniors in front of him.

The failure in the last battle with rats made the old sheepman a little more hesitant.

But it was still trust and even encouragement that was invested in him.

Ever since, he stood on this grassland again, facing off against Shu Zhan from afar.

The flag was raised.

This time he was still so decisive.

Still leading the charge.

The only difference is that this time, all the sheep orc knights are following behind him.

They all took off their machetes.

No order was even needed. When the flag started to move, the charge had already begun.

Forty thousand sheep orc knights faced the enemy who was ten times their size.

This is an almost impossible war to win.

Yes, it is almost impossible to win, almost, not absolutely impossible.

The 40,000 sheep orc knights suddenly began to divide their troops and divided into two troops. The 30,000 sheep orc knights broke away from the team and ran wildly in the other direction.

But the flag was left behind.

The high priest of the sheep orcs was betting heavily on a possibility, and he was also betting on the only possibility that he could be caught in a hurry.

He was betting on the rear of the rat army. Compared to his defense of the rear, it was the rat men who really defended the rear.

As long as the large army of sheep orcs has the intention to rush towards the rear of the rat camp, or even as long as the large army of sheep orcs appears near the rat camp, then a large number of rat troops will soon be mobilized.

There seems to be something crucial to the rat people behind the camp.

That's enough.

The 30,000 sheep orc army bypassed the rat army and ran straight towards the rear of the rat army.

Ten thousand sheep orc knights gathered under the banner of Nafeng and launched a charge towards Rat War.

The old Feng is no longer as proud and confident as he once was.

This is an attempt, an attempt at the cost of one's own life.

If his bet was wrong, and the things behind the camp were not that important to the rat men, then he would die on the way to charge, in the process of rushing towards the opposite leader.

The 30,000 sheep orc knights will also flee far away, immediately retreating into the grassland behind, and starting to migrate with the large and small sheep orc tribes located on this grassland.

He also chose the place to move to.

Leave this four-season grassland and go to the center of the vast grassland, to the place where the wolf orcs are entrenched.

This is not a good choice.

Even if the sheep orcs who abandoned the pasture were accepted by the wolf orcs, they were destined to become slaves. Once, Feng knelt down before the young wolf king just to prevent this scene from happening.

He did it.

Feng used his pride and dignity to preserve the freedom and possibility for the sheep orcs. At least after that war, in this four-season pasture, the sheep orcs could still compete with the argali tribe.

And now, Feng is still resisting this possibility.

Even if the opponent is ten times stronger than our own, even if there is little hope.

For a very ethereal concept, an illusory thing, a decisive charge.

Dignity and freedom?

He is indeed a true hero, a hero of the sheep orcs. A king cares about power, a warlord loves war and conquest, and a hero is the purest.

But also the most stupid.

But sometimes these guys can indeed perform miracles.

As long as what's behind the camp is important to the rat people, as long as what's behind the camp is so important to the rat people that they can't give up at all.

Then for the rat generals on the opposite side, there will only be one choice.

Return reinforcements and send troops to intercept the sheep orc knights who are running towards the rear.

And the teams sent out didn't have many options.

Because the infantry simply couldn't catch up with the running sheep knights.

The only ones sent out were the rat knights.

What Feng wants to do is also very simple. No matter what is behind that makes the rat people pay so much attention, it is not his target.

He needed to win the war, not sacrifice himself in a way that would lead to the same death, leaving the opposing generals furious with their incompetence.

The transferred rat knights will bring him an opportunity, an opportunity that is slim but has a slight possibility.

Kill the general on the opposite side.

His vision is indeed very vicious. As long as he can kill Rat Zhan, no matter how large the Rat Man's Eastern Expeditionary Force is, the defeat will happen almost instantly.

There is just one problem.

Can he do it?

This sheep orc's high priest style, he is indeed a hero, but so is the rat war.

Although compared to him, Shu Zhan is simply a negative example, irritable, crazy, and cruel.

But Rat Zhan is still a hero, a hero loyal to his own desires, and a despicable hero.

Did the Sheep-Orc High Priest make the right bet?

He made the right bet.

When Shu Zhan saw the direction of the sheep orcs who had separated their troops, his face turned green.

Especially when they saw that the 30,000 sheep-orc knights easily broke through the rat-man scavenging team that was following the rat-man army like a dark cloud and walked away.

This group of chaotic and ununited guys has no other role than to serve as cannon fodder.

Shu Zhan's face suddenly turned ugly.

Even though he was quite bold, he did not dare to leave everything to those temple guards.

If something really goes wrong.

The white rat will never let him go.

And above the white rat, the great god also cast his sight.

That's it.

Rat Zhan really didn’t dare to gamble.

In the waving flag.

The rat knight was transferred by rat war.

Just as Nafeng expected, Shu Zhan didn't have many choices, so did Shu Zhan understand his intentions.

It's not hard to guess.

He's not the first guy to block it all out and head straight into a rat fight.

Rat Zhan has only one comment on such a move.

madness!

Just like that red lizard, it was just making sacrifices. If it had been before the melting pot city, that damn red lizard would have never turned back.

Instead, he chose to leave on the dragon and ignore those lizardmen and snakemen. So now, he might still give Rat Zhan a headache.

The fire that has no worries and controls the dragon is something that is quite difficult to handle even if the rat war mobilizes more troops.

But the stupid red lizard chose to look back.

And this damn old sheepman chose to charge decisively at him.

This similar approach made Rat Zhan feel disgusted, sick, and unreasonably angry.

Because he recalled some things he didn't want to recall, Shu Zhan's expression unconsciously took on a hint of ferocity and distortion.

“This look is really disgusting!

Who do you think you are? "

Shu Zhan gritted his teeth and said every word.

He was going to kill the guy and skin him to use as a cushion.

At this moment, a blood-red picture appeared behind Shu Zhan. It was his own shadow and a blessing from the gods.

Apart from White Rat's joke-like blessing, Rat Zhan is the only one in the Ratman Kingdom who has actually received Du Yuan Zhan's blessing.

Compared with the blessings of the Western Expeditionary Force and the Central Expeditionary Force gathered on the battle flag, the blessings of the Rat War fell directly on him.

This is a huge difference.

The blood-red shadow looked down at everything in front of him. In the midst of his angry roar, the rat warriors surrounding Rat Zhan became a little more restless for no reason.

Red eyes.
