Chapter 1209: Tasai City - Bait

Chapter 1209: Tasai City - Bait

At the beginning of August in 9774 of the Glorious Calendar, the 8th Legion received an "order" from the th Legion and set out from the War City of Letaya and headed towards the city of Tasai, where the remnants of the rd Legion of the Black Asian Orc Northern Army were stationed.

At the same time, the 35th Legion of the 12th Corps set out from the Celes Fortress and moved southeast, keeping a watchful eye on the Black Asian Orc forces in the Esor tribal area.

As for the Fifth Legion of the Black Orc Northern Army in the northwest of the Hesern tribal area, it is guarded by the Sixth Corps and the Twentieth Legion of the Human Coalition.

Located on the western front between the Principality of Morning Light and the United Kingdom of Coles, the 38th Legion of the 13th Corps, under the order of the Human Allied Forces Command, marched toward the city of Symus, an important town in the eastern part of the Hesern tribal area of ​​the United Kingdom of Coles, in order to disperse the pressure faced by the 9th Corps in the Kamo tribal area.

Near the border between the Visera tribal area and the Tanla province, the Seventh Corps of the Human Coalition frequently launched small-scale military operations, making the Fourth and Fifteenth Corps of the Black Orc Northern Army exhausted.

At the same time, near the border between the Guaze Province of the Kingdom of Belfas and the Koval and Elgo tribal areas of the United Kingdom of Coles, the 11th Corps carried out a large-scale troop mobilization, causing the more than 200,000 Black Orc troops stationed in the two major tribal areas to be on high alert.

In the city of Tase in the Kamo tribal area, Manus looked at the letter sent by his confidant in the Second Legion, and driven by anger, he tore the animal skin in his hand into pieces.

"That ***, I ****."

"How dare Gamonli, a lowly reptile, use me as bait?"

"I will kill all of your bloodline descendants, all of them."

Hearing their master's roar, the twenty-four high-level silver-level black orc warriors standing on both sides of the hall did not dare to breathe, for fear of being taken out on by the master and ending up being chopped into pieces and made into food.

After venting his anger, Manus gradually calmed down.

When that bastard Gamonli revealed the information to that lowly Motana, it meant that the human army had arrived near the city of Tase.

At this moment, if he retreated without fighting, he would definitely be labeled an incompetent general and bring shame to his mother.

Manus clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "This bastard calculated that I would not retreat."

"After this disaster, I will make you, a bastard, live a life worse than death."

After taking a deep breath to ease the anger in his heart, Manus looked up at the guards on both sides of the hall and said in a deep voice: "Go and call Bartholomew to me."

"Yes, Master."

The twenty-four guards answered in unison, then left the hall one after another, fleeing from this place where they could die at any time.

Looking at the guard's hurriedly leaving back, Manus' eyes were full of indifference, and no one knew what he was thinking.

In the military camp in the city, Bartholomew, who was preparing the troops to fill the vacancies in the Third Legion, frowned when he saw Manus' guards coming.

Manus asked the guards to find him at this time, which must be nothing good.

"Lord Bartholomew, the master asked you to go to the hall to see him." The guard came to Bartholomew, saluted respectfully, and spoke.

"What's the matter?"

Staring at the guard in front of him, Bartholomew asked in a deep voice.

"After receiving a secret letter from an animal hide, the master suddenly flew into a rage and kept cursing Lord Gamonli."

The guard came up to Bartholomew and reported in a low voice, then stepped back a few steps, lowered his head and dared not say anything else.

"Let's go."

Bartholomew sighed and said to the guard.

Arriving in front of the hall, Bartholomew looked up into the hall, only to see Manus staring straight at him.

Under the other party's gaze, Bartholomew could only enter the hall under this creepy look.

"Legion Commander."

Manus looked at Bartholomew without saying anything, pointed to the pieces of animal skin on the ground and asked him to look at them himself.

Upon seeing this, Bartholomew waved his hand and took the pieces of animal skin in front of him. Based on the shape of the gap, he pieced them together in a few seconds.

Looking at the information recorded above, Bartholomew's face turned serious, and he instantly understood why his brother-in-law was so angry.

"Captain Juntu, what are you going to do now?"

Hearing Bartholomew's question, Manus said sarcastically, "What else can I do? The human army is already at the gates of the city. I can't abandon the city and escape."

"Do you need to tell your mother about this?"

"No need." Manus said in a deep voice, "I know Gamonli very well. Since he dares to use me as bait, he must be sure to annihilate this human army."

"However, since he dared to use me as bait, I will not let him go."

Bartholomew looked at the murderous intent in Manus' eyes, opened his mouth, but finally gave up the idea of ​​giving advice.

Persuading him now may backfire. It would be better to wait until after the war and give some advice to prevent the conflict between Manus and Gamonli from escalating to the level of the high priest and the Black Moon Sword Master.

"Okay, go down and deploy the troops and prepare to defend the city."

"Yes."

Bartholomew replied, then turned and left the hall.

At this moment, 25 kilometers north of the city of Tase, an outpost of the Third Legion of the Black Orc Northern Army built on a rock wall was captured, and all the garrison troops were annihilated.

On the ruins of the outpost, the commander of the Third Battalion of the First Army of the 25th Legion looked into the distance, watching the figures moving frequently on the city wall, and murmured in a low voice: "The blockade plan has failed."

A low-ranking silver knight came to the edge of the cliff, dismounted, and came in front of the high-ranking gold warrior. He saluted with his chest and said loudly: "General, the commander orders your troops to stop marching, clear obstacles on the spot, build a camp, and wait for the arrival of the army."

"Tell the commander, I understand."

"Yes."

After the messenger knight left, the commander of the third battalion waved his hand to call the adjutant to him and gave the order, "Let the third battalion move forward five kilometers to be on guard. The rest of the troops will work in small teams to cut down trees, clear rubble, level the ground, and build fences for the camp."

"Yes, General."

In the evening, more than 50,000 people from the 25th Corps arrived at the temporary camp.

At the same time, the Third Legion of the Black Orc Northern Army will withdraw all the troops stationed in the outpost of Tasai City to avoid unnecessary losses.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, a barrier rose from the center of the city of Tasai and continued to spread in all directions until it enveloped the entire city.

Inside the camp of the 25th Legion, Kyle looked at the "glass cover" above the city of Tasse, his expression showing no change at all.

In this operation, the mission of their legion was not to capture the city of Tasai, but to lure out the gray orc legion.
