Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 384: Chapter 371, Advanced Attack_2

A tremendous force instantly sent the few farmers holding him down sprawling.

But they were completely tied up and unable to make a sound.

Xu Yang quickly stepped forward, slashing with his sword again, and shouted,

“Quick, let’s finish him together, then we can leave here.”

Thud! Thud! Thud!!

The people swarmed up and directly turned the troll in front of them into a sieve.

The troll was dead.

The night had also deepened.

Xu Yang lit a Gnoll candle, wrapping a piece of cloth around the middle part. After everything was done, he dismissed everyone with a wave of his hand. “Let’s go, we are leaving this place.”

Leading the people, they bypassed several dozing watchmen.

They slipped out through a dug tunnel prepared beforehand, disappearing into the night.

In the latter half of the night.

Whoosh!!

The miscellaneous goods warehouse in the camp suddenly caught on fire.

As there were many flammable items stored in the warehouse, when the trolls discovered it, the fire had already spread.

The neighboring warehouses and tents also caught fire.

The fire engulfed the entire camp.

The Trolls roared loudly, moving their stuff while trying to put out the fire.

Bagath looked at the fire’s source, then at the chaotic camp.

His face turned exceptionally grim.

“Have you seen those humans helping to put out the fire?” Bagath stopped a troll and asked coldly.

“No, they must have burned to death inside.” The troll responded.

“Alright, go and put out the fire.”

“Yes, Clan Leader.”

Just as the troll left, the other troll leaders quickly walked over from their respective places.

“Chief Bagath, do you suspect those human vermin did this?” a leader asked coldly.

“It seems, those humans escaped.” Bagath had already determined that it was the humans’ doing.

Or rather, it was Xu Yang’s doing.

Those submissive farmers wouldn’t dare to set the warehouse on fire when running away.

“Damn, I’m going to bring them back and kill them all,” a troll said angrily. Bagath held back the troll who was about to leave.

He shook his head and said, “We will settle scores with them after this. Call everyone to be alert for enemies going to attack the camp seeing the fire. Also, convey the order to attack the Bloodthroat Tribe when dawn breaks.”

“Attack at dawn? Everyone hasn’t rested well!” someone commented.

Bagath looked at the raging fire in the camp.

“After the fire, there will be loss in food and supplies. We can’t afford to rest another day. Tell everybody, after conquering the Bloodthroat Tribe, everyone can rest properly.”

Although the troll army was not in total chaos, it certainly lacked the order of a human army.

The storage of army provisions was as messy as their camp.

It was alright when nothing happened.

In this fire, the majority of the supplies were burnt. One more day of rest, and the army would go hungry.

Hearing Bagath’s words, the other leaders understood as well.

They nodded, “Alright, we will siege the city tomorrow morning.”

“Hmm, go ahead.”

The crowd dispersed, passing on the news to their individual clans.

Bagath watched the raging fire with a serious expression, feeling a bit irked.

If he had known earlier, he would have directly killed all the humans.

The next day, early in the morning.

Fang Hao had breakfast, then brought Anjia and Demitrija on the Bone Dragon directly toward the Bloody Fortress.

From the sky, they could see the White Bone Army waiting at the base of the fortress.

As well as the bustling orcs.

The Bone Dragon landed in front of the fortress.

Black Thorn and the other Skeleton heroes quickly walked over to personally greet them.

“My Lord,” Black Thorn and the others saluted.

Fang Hao and the others dismounted from the Bone Dragon, “Hmm, have all the items that the army needs to carry been listed?”

The day before, Black Sword and Heavy Arrow had already arrived at the fortress.

They had counted the number of troops, as well as the items and tools needed for this battle.

Fang Hao arrived the next day to manufacture the listed equipment.

“My Lord, we have completed the tally.” Black Thorn handed over a piece of parchment.

It listed the names and quantities of the equipment.

The items needed for this operation, along with the arrows, and various other tools.

The largest quantity was for arrows.

A total of five million was needed, even taking into account the arrows already stored in the fortress.

In addition to arrows, there were carts, iron axes, spare ropes, etc., a total of more than 20 different items listed.

Fang Hao didn’t waste any time and moved to an open space.

He then opened the Book of Lords and began to construct them.

In a large burst of light, various tools were produced.

No wonder they say warfare is all about spending money. Were it not for the rich mineral resources of the Cold Wind Mountains, even with the hundred­fold amplification, he wouldn’t be able to sustain the consumption of the Undead Army.

After the required tools were produced, Black Thorn continued to arrange manpower to organize the tools.

Everything was loaded onto carts by categories.

The skeletons began to pack up the arrows and tools, while Fang Hao and the others directly went to the Headquarters.

Once everyone sat down, Fang Hao continued: “Black Thorn, you’re most familiar with the Bloodthirsty Mountain Range, this operation will be commanded by you. Black Sword, Giant Wall, Heavy Arrow, the three of you will be the generals.”

Black Thorn might not be the most powerful, but he is the most knowledgeable about this area.

Although Giant Wall retains most of its memories, it does not have command proficiency.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Fang Hao decided that Black Thorn is the best fit for this task.

“Yes, my Lord.”

All four of them stood up, nodded, and took their orders.

All of them were skeleton heroes, with 100% loyalty. They would carry out any command given by Fang Hao unconditionally, and he did not have to worry about their loyalty diminishing.

“Well, this operation is ” Fang Hao was about to continue when,

Hurried footsteps sounded from outside the door.

A slightly plump, pink pigman wearing brown leather armour walked in briskly, flanked by several Gnolls.

Fang Hao recognized him at a glance; it was Petty, the Pigmen Clan Leader he hadn’t seen in a long time.

After taking the stamina potion, Petty’s physical condition had improved.

Not only did he reach the third-tier, his appearance had changed somewhat as well.

His skin was still pink and plump, but his features had started to show signs of becoming more humanlike.

Fang Hao saw Petty, and Petty also saw Fang Hao. He quickly stepped forward to salute, “Lord, Miss Anjia, gentlemen…”

Petty was always considerate and greeted everyone.

“Well, Petty, what brings you here in such a hurry?” Fang Hao asked directly.

Petty immediately said: “My Lord, the scouts we sent out have returned.” He looked at the Gnolls behind him, “Tell the gentlemen about the information, do not leave out any details.”

One of the Gnolls stepped forward, “Gentlemen, this morning, we noticed a group of Trolls launching an attack on the Bloodthroat Tribe. They are numerous and have prepared catapults and siege ladders among other equipment. The Bloodthroat side is currently holding firm; their counter­attackweapon is a crossbow-like device that can pierce through several enemies with each attack. Oh, and we did not see any flying troops or cavalry on either side.”

The Gnoll finished in one breath and then exhaled deeply.

Fang Hao didn’t have a good impression of Gnolls but he couldn’t deny their commendable scouting and tracking abilities.

Upon hearing the Gnoll’s report, Fang Hao’s brow furrowed instantly.

Weren’t the Troll alliance supposed to attack Bloodthroat tomorrow? Why were they attacking today?

There must have been some change in plans.

Fang Hao didn’t ask Xu Yang, since his information might not be as accurate as the scouts’.

Their combat starting earlier is also a good thing.

The sooner both sides use up their forces, the earlier his own men can set off.

“Can you estimate the number of forces on both sides?” Fang Hao continued to ask.

The Gnoll revealed a troubled expression, hesitated for a moment, “My Lord, we did not dare to get too close, but we roughly estimate that there are at least 200,000 to 300,000 attackers, while the Bloodthroat side has only tens of thousands.”

“Good, you’ve done well. Once the war is over, Commanding Officer Black Thorn will reward you.” Fang Hao said to them.

Hearing Fang Hao’s promise, joy instantly appeared on their faces.

“Thank you, my Lord, thank you, my Lord.”

“Alright, you can go rest for now. Petty, stay for the discussion of our strategy.” Fang Hao continued.

“Yes, my Lord.”

The scouts left the room, while Petty sat cautiously on the side.

Petty had signed a Slave Contract with Fang Hao and could be trusted.

Next.

They examined the map again and confirmed the operational plan.

Black Thorn and others left to organize the troops.

At one o’clock in the afternoon.

“I wait for your victory.” Fang Hao whispered.

Black Thorn and the others saluted again, swung their hands in a grand gesture, “Move out.”

The Undead Army marched out of the Bloodthirsty Fortress and directly into the mountains.

They continued on as far as the eye could see.
