Chapter 744: The Next Step
Guo Dasong and Wu Rencai checked next to the orcs' corpse. The orcs had strong muscles, only a piece of animal skin was wrapped around their waists, and the rest was covered with a layer of fine hair.
In such a cold day, these orcs can resist the severe cold, which is beyond human ability.
"oh oh--"
An orc who was not completely dead lying on the ground and shouted in a low voice.
The falling snowflakes covered the orc's body and looked miserable.
"Brother Wu, look, what does this orc's brain look like?" Guo Dasong asked Wu Rencai.
Wu Rencai had never contacted the northern territory before, and the orc in front of him surprised him very much.
"This—" Guo Dasong looked carefully and said, "I looked at the orc's head like a wild boar."
Guo Dasong nodded, and he pointed to a dead orc next to him and asked, "Brother Wu, what do you think of this?"
"This, I look like a bear." Wu Rencai said.
Guo Dasong said: "Yes, Brother Wu, you may not know that the beastly behavior of these orcs in the northern border completely subverted the human relationship of our Xuantian Continent. These orcs are hybridized to each other in the northern border, and there is no boundary between each species."
"Oh? Is this the reason why they formed this way?" Wu Rencai looked at the orcs on the ground, his face full of sighs.
"Yes, Brother Wu, since the Black Mountain Thousand-Fall Snow Cliff has melted, these orcs from the northern border have crossed the natural barrier. They have caused trouble to our northern country, which has caused me a headache!" Guo Dasong said.
"Brother Guo, it was rumored that orcs slaughtered the city and robbed the woman to the northern border. Is this true?"
"It's true."
"They don't kill women, can they--" A miserable picture appeared in front of Wu Rencai.
"They plundered these women to the northern border and used them as tools for childbirth!" Guo Dasong finished speaking, and sighed!
As the lord of the northern country, Guo Dasong has an obligation to protect the peace of the northern country. Although the black mountain ice and snow melt and the orcs climb over the barrier are deeper, Guo Dasong feels a little guilty inside.
While the two were talking, Wu Lang and Guo Jingming also brought troops to the scene.
"How is it, Alang?" Guo Dasong asked with concern.
Guo Jingming rushed to say, "Dad, we have defeated those orcs, and those orcs have escaped!"
Wu Lang was smiling.
Guo Dasong glanced at his son and felt that Guo Jingming was too flamboyant and did not worry about other people's feelings in some things. This was what Guo Dasong was worried about.
In order to take over the Northern Lord, Guo Dasong knew that his son not only needed to improve his cultivation, but also put more effort into dealing with people and people!
"Okay, thank you all for your hard work." Guo Dasong stepped forward and patted Wu Lang on the shoulder.
At this time, sounds also came from the city walls—
"City Lord, is it you?"
On the city wall, an old man in armor shouted loudly.
"Xiao Qi! It's me! I'm here to help you get rid of the situation!"
Guo Dasong responded loudly!
"Oh! City Lord! You guys are here! We almost couldn't defend Qisong City!" the old man said tremblingly.
The snowflakes fell, and on the mottled city wall, the old man stood proudly surrounded by some soldiers, obviously very tragic.
"Open the city gate quickly! Welcome our lord into the city!" the old man ordered.
While he said, he rushed down the city tower and prepared to welcome Guo Dasong.
Xiao Qi, who was over 70 years old, stationed in Qisong City for more than 40 years, is also considered a veteran among the garrisons of the Northern Kingdom.
Over the years, Xiao Qi has been guarding Qisong City. This Qisong City is directly north of Heifeng City and is also the most important fortress to protect Heifeng City.
Xiao Qi was cautious all his life. Although there were few incidents of orcs crossing the barriers in recent years, he had been carefully managing Qisong City.
The city walls have been strengthened, and the guards have been training to maintain combat effectiveness.
In contrast, some other towns in the northern country seem much shortsighted. They focus on enjoyment, and the leaders who guarded the city also neglected the strengthening of defense. This time, the orcs crossed the border, which caused these border towns to suffer a lot.
It was precisely because of Xiao Qi's hard work that he resisted the orc siege.
The orcs siege for a day and a night, but they did not break through the gates of Qisong City. This has to be said to be a miracle.
"Xiao Qi, you have made great contributions! If it weren't for you, the people in Qisong City would have suffered." Guo Dasong said, and stepped forward to hug Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi did not expect Guo Dasong to be so sensational. Xiao Qi quickly patted the snow on his armor and said flatteredly: "Lord, these are all the duties that subordinates should do, and there is nothing to praise."
"Where is it? Xiao Qi, if you don't see other towns, how could you withstand the attacks of orcs? How miserable are the people in those towns!" Guo Dasong said with a sigh.
Everyone exchanged greetings and entered the city.
Guo Dasong's subsequent army also arrived immediately, and some of the supplies he brought were also transported to Qisong City.
What surprised Guo Dasong was that although the Qisong City was besieged by orcs for a day and a night, the soldiers and people here were not very panic.
I guess Xiao Qi was well prepared and there was no shortage of supplies.
Guo Dasong couldn't help but be surprised. He thought to himself: Fortunately, Xiao Qi is a steady person. If he is rebellious, this is a big concern for him!
The snowflakes are still floating, and the snow-white in Qisong City is snow-white.
This is the norm here. The climate is so cold all year round, but there are sunny days.
On sunny days, the Qisong City also has its own unique charm.
In the afternoon, smoke from cooking in the city began to simmer.
If it weren't for the fierce battle just now, Guo Dasong and others wouldn't believe that the people in Qisong City could be so calm.
Xiao Qi respectfully accompanied everyone. They walked over a foot of snow, crossed the main road of Qisong City, and came to his mansion to discuss matters.
The charcoal fires had been roasted in Xiao Qi's mansion, and the conference hall was very warm. Everyone unbuttoned their robes and surrounded the stove.
Guo Dasong naturally refused. He took off his outer robe, sat in the upper seat, and looked around with a little domineering attitude.
"Lord, fortunately you arrived in time today, otherwise we really couldn't hold on." Xiao Qi said.
"Xiao Qi, our army is heading north this time to defeat the orcs' arrogance in one fell swoop and try to drive them back to the northern border! Tell me where these orcs are stationed now? Will they come to attack again?" Guo Dasong asked.
"It's so great, lord, we're waiting for you to deal with the orcs!" he said.
"Come on! Come on the map-"
Xiao Qi shouted again.
A guard came, holding a map drawn from animal skin in his hand.
