Chapter 96
Xiao Yu reached the edge of the border of Kahn state in about a dozen days.
As he had expected, he was safe within Kahn's territory. Duke Simm won't touch him inside Kahn's territory.
Xiao Yu moved his troops to the city of Tito, which was about half a day from Kahn. He ordered Tyrande to ride his white tiger in front of them and find out if any power wanted to ambush them. The eyes of the elves were the most useful in finding such traps.
Xiao Yu was not afraid of anyone as long as he could reach Tito city and obtain a ballista.
The 50 ballistas would be able to solve many of the problems that Xiao Yu could face. He could even use it to get rid of the troops. The line from the border of Kahn state to the city of Tito is the plain. There was no terrain that could be used for ambush so Xiao Yu was free.
They arrived safely in the city of Tito. Xiao Yu immediately went to the Warhammer company as soon as they entered the city. A huge commotion occurred in the city due to the orc guard Xiao Yu. However, the city guards did not block their way as he used the Xiao family flag.
The main representative of the Warhammer company personally greeted Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu did not want to waste time so he asked for 50 ballistas. He took it because everything was made according to his instructions. Xiao Yu bought quite a lot of spears (bolts) for the ballista and put them on the carriage. He planned to spend the night in the town of Tito and return to the Lion town the next morning.
Xiao Yu did not dare to take the activities of the night lightly. He ordered Tyrande to stay alert at night and prevent enemy attacks. The eyes of the elves had night vision so they became much better guards at night compared to the others.
Nothing big happens at night. Only a few petty thieves tried to steal their gold. Xiao Yu had brought the golden coin carriage. Especially because of his luxurious carriage, he had stolen the attention of many people when he had entered the city of Tito. Nevertheless, all the thieves were killed by Tyrande.
In addition, Tyrande discovered that there were scouts who had come to investigate them secretly. Leah helped Xiao yu by capturing 4 assassins. He's a real high-class killer.
Xiao Yu had issued an order that no one would wake him unless the army tried to attack them. He found out about the killers the next morning. The first assassin was tough and said nothing. As a result, Xiao Yu ordered Beast One to decapitate his head and feed the dogs.
The other assassin honestly spilled the beans after this incident. They tell them about the money they received for the job and the details of the mission. Xiao Yu guessed the number of enemy troops from his conversation with the assassins.
It seemed that the enemy had spent a lot of money to be able to follow him.
Xiao Yu ordered a grunt to kill the three remaining assassins. Their heads were placed in front of the convoy in order for the other assassins not to act rashly.
Xiao Yu knew that he could not be gentle in this cruel era.
The convoy left the town of Tito but walked slowly. In the afternoon, Xiao Yu had found a good terrain for the camp and started training Orcs to practice launching ballistas.
The ballista is made of a chassis and a giant arrow is placed on it. Otherwise, the people could not move the giant arrows as they wished. However, Xiao Yu had arranged it so that the chassis and giant arrows of the ballista could be separated. In this way the Orcs could move giant arrows and change the trajectory of the shot as they wished. It increases the mobility of the ballista.
The Orcs had no problem with picking up arrows. However, they were very slow in placing the spear due to their large hands and their relatively poor shots.
Xiao Yu trained them to shoot in a public direction. He believed that they did not need to learn to aim accurately. He tried to teach them the concept of direction by using the clock method. However, he learned that the Orcs could not understand the idea. He continued to teach them but they still could not remember the direction.
Xiao Yu was planning to stay here for a while so he had nothing but to teach the Orcs about general knowledge.
Xiao Yu snorted: “Now they are in the shadows and we are not sure when or where they will ambush us. Instead we will be patient and drag them here! They will naturally come to us! ”
Xiao Yu believed that the enemy could not delay time like him. They would definitely take the initiative to attack if they saw that he had not come.
Xiao Yu ordered the Orcs to cut down trees and create obstacles around the camp. That would prevent others from charging forward. Xiao Yu had bought enough food for them to live on for two months.
Xiao Yu thought that if he knew that he would face such a battle then he should have brought Peon or the Farmer to build the watchtower.
Xiao Yu wanted to place the watchtower above the Lion city wall. However, he found that the system did not allow such construction on the walls. Nevertheless, he had built many watchtowers around the three bases as posts. It was a method of prevention for any attack.
…
…
Xiao Yu's expectations were not wrong. The people who tried to ambush him were anxious after not getting any information from Xiao Yu for a few days.
The enemy comes with a lot of speculation! Did Xiao Yu choose to go the other route? Was he robbed by someone else?
As a result, the enemy decided to send a scout. However, Tyrande was able to kill them all. No human is faster than the white tiger!
The enemy's task was to kill Xiao Yu and seize the Orcs. However, Xiao Yu was lost with his entourage. In the end, the enemy gave up on the original ambush plan and continued to search for Xiao Yu. After a large-scale reconnaissance mission, they found Xiao Yu's location. They even learned that Xiao Yu had made camp and planned to stay for some time.
Their commander felt ridiculous expecting Xiao Yu to follow common sense!
The commander was under great pressure before the ambush. This time out of this psychological war that will be the winner.
It was the same situation that happened when Germany attacked the Soviet Union for Kursk. The Soviets made a good defensive line but the Germans did not attack. The Soviet commander decided to start the attack if the Germans did not attack within three days. Fortunately for them luck stood by the Soviet Union and Germany attacked. As a result, the Soviet Union won the battle.
This time Xiao Yu won a psychological fight as well!
Xiao Yu was the commander of his army and he bore the responsibility for everything. However, the enemy commander had to report to the superior who put a lot of pressure on him. He could not lose the battle and could not drag him down.
Moreover, they were in another region and they could not stay there for long. Others would be interested to know why so many troops had appeared in this region!
As a result, after they discovered Xiao Yu's location, they decided to launch an attack. They believed that they could win the battle if they launched an attack multiple times.
Of course, if they were to realize that Xiao Yu had won two wars for surviving in the Lion town then they would not have made this rash decision!
