To be honest, it took Fang Linyan a lot of effort to recruit Mi Er and the others.
Because Mi Er, this old fox, was not easy to fool, so he had to put in some effort to make them work for him.
Then the group of people set off in a mighty manner. Their excuse was that they found a good opportunity and were ready to make a big profit.
In fact, this was indeed the case. This "big profit" was also very important for Fang Linyan and the others because their goal was none other than Stone Hammer Kissas, the elite hill giant!
Vulture left the team in advance. In fact, he went to the Red Cloud Platform to collect a series of related information about this guy. For this reason, Fang Linyan also lent him his "Hesitation Walk". In the non-combat state, the speed of the Hesitation Walk was very crucial for Vulture. After all, most of his time was spent on running.
As mentioned before, Orgrimmar was also dozens of kilometers away from the Red Cloud Platform. Fortunately, after Fang Linyan's team escaped from there, they were also walking in the direction of the Red Cloud Platform by accident.
So in fact, their position at this time was between Orgrimmar and the Red Cloud Platform, which was only 40 kilometers away from the Red Cloud Platform. With the auxiliary kinetic skeleton, they could get there in about 2 or 3 hours.
On the way, Fang Linyan played a little trick. He made an excuse that he saw a fleeing thylacine, then he chased after it and successfully led the entire team off the normal route.
Mi Er, who was steady in doing things, immediately felt that something was wrong and raised an objection,
"Hey! Spanner, you are too rash. You are completely ruining my good impression of you. "
Fang Linyan's response was very simple. He chased after without looking back.
Vulture said straightforwardly at this time,
"It's okay, Spanner has a sense of propriety. He has a magical intuition to know where there is what he wants."
"Mi Er, if you feel that something is wrong, just sit here and wait for us. Those who are willing to follow and help can come."
After speaking, Vulture also chased. The other 2 guys looked at each other and immediately chose to follow and help.
Mi Er pondered for a while, then he chose to sit back and watch. At the same time, he also restrained his subordinates.
This old man was in his forties, but he had been in the industry since he was sixteen, so he had seen countless conflicts and traps. The reason he was able to survive until now was because he was cautious enough.
Of course, because of his caution, he also lost many opportunities.
Such a guy whose character weakness was figured out by Fang Linyan was destined to be used as a pawn this time because Fang Linyan prepared an overt plot for him.
About half an hour later, Fang Linyan and others returned with a full load. They found a wolf's den and got a surprise in the wolf's den,
There were furs worth about twenty thousand dollars, and two seemingly tattered but actually sturdy backpacks. It was obvious that the original owners of the backpacks were explorers or adventurers who had died here.
More importantly, there were more than ten thousand dollars in cash, the gold nugget collected by the adventurer, and an expensive antique pocket watch.
Fang Linyan used this trick again, but it was very effective. At that time, the people who chased after him to help were all happy.
Fang Linyan was quite generous when he distributed the dividends, which directly made these unruly guys show a flattering smile. After all, their boss was the biggest boss in the world.
After confirming that the antique watch was worth more than fifty thousand dollars, 2 of the black men were so excited that they even did a passionate samba dance on the spot, and they kept kissing the surface of the watch with their thick lips.
Such a high-profile way of showing off obviously made those who didn't get any benefits quite unhappy, but they couldn't say anything. They could only silently endure the sour taste and annoyance in their hearts. Of course, there were also thoughts that couldn't help but appear in their minds,
"Damn it! At that time, when that bastard Wrench rushed up, why did I stay here like a fool? "
And this was the purpose of Fang Linyan.
Next time when he said that there was a situation ahead, Mi Er, this old fox, should not be able to restrain the restless heart of his subordinates.
After the group continued to move forward for about 20 kilometers, the scout sent in front suddenly said through the walkie-talkie,
"Be careful, there is a situation ahead."
After leaving the area of Orgrimmar, the walkie-talkie returned to normal again. Although the interference was still strong, it was possible to make a long-distance call within a few hundred meters.
Fang Linyan immediately said,
"What happened?"
The scout said,
"It doesn't have much to do with us, but the battle between the 2 sides is still very fierce. You can come over, but be careful. Don't make too much noise and be noticed."
It was worth mentioning that they had come to the outer area of the Red Cloud Platform at this time, so the terrain had also changed significantly. The moisture had obviously become sufficient. From the previous desolate Gobi terrain, it probably became the terrain of an arid wilderness.
Previously, in the Gobi Desert, one would have to be very lucky to find a few grayish drought-resistant plants. But now, there were mottled plant communities on the ground, with clusters of grayish green. If one looked down from the sky, this uneven and sparse landscape did not give people a sense of beauty. Instead, it looked like a bald head that had not been shaved properly.
There was a hill in front. The scout sent out waved there, and at the same time, he raised a finger to signal to be careful.
While the team was climbing the hill, a lot of doubts and astonishment arose in their hearts.
That was because they heard a lot of chaotic noises coming from a distance. There were unique roars and roars of beasts, painful screams, and even the clanging sound of weapons colliding.
"Damn it, what is going on over there? Is it the Battle of Hot Spring Gate? "
A black man nicknamed Big Q took the lead and muttered.
Black people, being noisy and talkative was their racial talent. This was unavoidable.
Another person listened for a while and said,
"Not necessarily, I think it might be a crusade."
Mi Er said solemnly,
"Little Carl, stay silent."
So the whispers that had appeared also stopped.
At this time, Fang Linyan realized that it was not a bad thing to have an old guy like Mi Er in the team. At least he could save a lot of trouble.
Soon, a group of people climbed to the top of the hill, and they immediately found that there was a medium-sized basin in front. The basin had an area of about 20 to 30 square kilometers. The hill they were on was actually the edge of the basin.
Looking down, it could be seen that the bottom of the basin was basically flat. There was a small lake on the west side. It was this lake and the unique terrain of the basin that made it full of vitality.
Green grass, flowers, trees, shrubs and other plants that could be seen everywhere in other places formed a large meadow area below.
However, on this vibrant meadow, an unusually fierce battle was unfolding. Under the slope in the distance, 50 to 60 centaurs were fighting with 3 hill giants. Both sides were caught in a cruel tug-of-war at this time. The battle was very fierce.
Looking at the flag raised high behind the centaurs, Fang Linyan suddenly felt familiar, then he suddenly remembered. Isn't this the flag of the Kyrgyz centaurs? These guys were still fighting with the rescue team before, why are they here again …
"Wait!"
Fang Linyan suddenly realized that the reason why those bastards came here seemed to have a lot to do with them.
At that time, relying on the temporary camp, the rescue team severely damaged the centaurs of the Kyrgyz tribe! Not only did they kill many of them, but they also destroyed the other party's heavy crossbow.
So the other party was most likely anxious and angry, but they didn't expect that the rescue team didn't play by the rules. They actually turned around and ran, relying on their mobility advantage to go to Orgrimmar.
So obviously, the Kyrgyz centaurs who were unwilling to give up followed them here. As for why they had a conflict with the hill giants …
Red Cloud Platform and Orgrimmar were originally the "ancestral property" of the centaurs, but now they were occupied by the hill giants. This was obviously a sufficient reason. When both sides met, they didn't need to talk nonsense; they just directly took out their weapons and killed each other.
In addition, Fang Linyan noticed from a distance that there was a temporary camp beside the lake at the bottom of the basin.
There were many wooden cages in the camp, and many creatures were imprisoned in them:
There were land creatures that looked like ostriches, porcupines with spikes on their backs, but the ones that were imprisoned the most were still a dozen centaurs.
There was no doubt that in the eyes of the hill giants, those locked in the cages were all food.
These imprisoned centaur prisoners should also be one of the reasons why the Kyrgyz centaurs launched an attack.
Outside the camp by the lake, 3 hill giants with horns on their heads were fighting fiercely with the centaurs, and the thylacine and wolf controlled by both sides were also biting fiercely.
The tactics of the centaurs were nothing special. Primitive warfare was about numbers, physique, and cold weapons.
Although the hill giants were powerful individually, their height was several times that of the centaurs, and their strength was also overwhelming, most of the weapons they used were stone weapons with wooden sticks tied with stones. At most, there were a few sporadic tree thorns on the wooden sticks, just like a mace.
The centaurs won in numbers, and they had a greater advantage in war weapons. Therefore, although the disparity in individual strength between the two sides was obvious, they could still fight into a stalemate.
"Wow!"
The goat next to him suddenly sighed with emotion:
"Victory is about to be decided."
As it turned out, following the goat's gaze, a group of centaurs had appeared in ambush on the west side. They were strenuously pulling three ballistae from the side.
After these three ballistas entered the battlefield, they immediately played a huge role. It must be known that even Kenny and the Steel Knight, who possessed much more advanced technology, suffered a great loss under these things.
As expected, when the ballistae started shooting those rattan nets, the hill giants were immediately restrained.
The centaurs were using these tools with poor accuracy to restrict the movements of the Hill Giants. Although the net of vines would quickly break under the violent struggles of the Hill Giants, the strength and energy of these giants would be consumed in the process.
While the Hill Giant was struggling, it also gave the Centaurs enough time to take aim and attack. They could also launch an attack from behind or below the Hill Giant's feet.
Not only that, a centaur Thundercaller in the distance was effectively commanding the hill giants. While the hill giants were busy dealing with the tough rattan nets, it began to cooperate with the wolves to kill the hill giants' symbiotic creatures.
This was a classic tactic of clipping the wings and then breaking the roots.
Although it was cliché, it was undeniably effective.
After the wolves were killed or chased away, the remaining 30 centaurs under the cover of the ballistae launched a fierce assault on the hill giants trapped in the nets.
Among them, there were warriors wielding short axes and charging at the front. There were also spearmen wielding short spears and throwing arrows at close range. There were even archers shooting short arrows. However, the centaur warriors seemed to be multi-skilled warriors. They could flexibly switch roles based on the weapons they were wearing.
Not long later, the three hill giants in charge of guarding the camp were thoroughly slaughtered by the centaurs. The centaurs raised their weapons and cheered.
Immediately afterward, they began to clean up the battlefield, rescue the prisoners of war imprisoned in the camp, and set up the ballistae in the camp previously built by the hill giants. After that, they began to indulge. It was nothing more than killing, barbecuing, and drinking a kind of wine called Tata …
Of course, this kind of wine was very inferior. The alcohol content was very low, and it also had the characteristics of the Gobi Desert. It was brewed with the fruit of cactus and a kind of shrub. But even such inferior wine was very precious in this harsh environment.
Previously, Fang Linyan found that this kind of drink was a privilege enjoyed by a few people in the Magram Centaur tribe. At that time, during the celebration of the wolf king's death, this kind of wine was passed around in ox horns. Only shamans, priests, and lucky young men could drink it, and it would be gone after drinking 2 ox horns.
But these ordinary Kyrgyz centaur warriors could taste a few mouthfuls of Tata Wine each.
Not only that, these Kyrgyz centaur warriors in front were obviously just a small tribe, just a small part of the entire Kyrgyz centaur tribe.
There was a saying that one could see a leopard through a tube. The strength of these two tribes could be seen at a glance.
Immediately afterward, these centaurs set up many leather tents in the camp, and they seemed to be in a mess. In fact, they left a convenient way in the camp. Afterward, the Kyrgyz tribe flag was erected outside the camp.
To be honest, Fang Linyan felt that the abstract moon symbol on that thing looked a little funny. It couldn't help but remind Fang Linyan of the classic crooked smile emoji in the QQ emoji pack.
At this time, Mi Er had already leaned to Fang Linyan's side and whispered,
"It's time for us to leave. Spanner, business is more important."
Fang Linyan glanced at Mi Er, held his chin and said,
"I'm thinking about business."
Mi Er's face began to look a little ugly,
"Hey, don't tell me you think that we followed you all the way just to lie in this damn place and watch the bonfire banquet of these barbaric monsters?"
Fang Linyan heard the anger in Mi Er's voice. He probably also noticed Fang Linyan's previous conspiracy to weaken his authority. Oh no, it should be an open conspiracy!
Therefore, Fang Linyan smiled and said to Mi Er,
"Do you want a cigarette?"
Mi Er was very annoyed by Fang Linyan's perfunctory attitude,
"Hey! Didn't you hear what I said? "
At this time, Vulture suddenly stood up and stared at Mi Er fiercely,
"The boss doesn't need to explain to you what to do, old thing! Think carefully about who was the one who wanted to join us a few hours ago. "
Then, before Mi Er could react at all, he felt a chill on his neck; a dagger was placed on his neck.
Obviously, Vulture's strong reprimand immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the people. Mi Er's two brothers immediately shouted angrily,
"Bastard, be polite!"
"Do you want a hole in your head?"
“.....”
At this time, Fang Linyan seemed to notice the dispute here. He looked over blankly, then he frowned. He raised his hand to ask Vulture to put down the dagger, then he said with an ugly face,
"I don't like to be interrupted when I think about problems, and I don't want to be a teacher and answer some very childish questions at any time. But since it is the first time for everyone to cooperate, I will make an exception."
Having said that, Fang Linyan looked around,
"Is there anyone else like Mi Er who thinks that we are wasting time here?"
The 3 people who got benefits from Fang Linyan before certainly didn't think so. Only the 2 who just shouted angrily supported,
"Yes!"
"I think so too."
After a few seconds, Mi Er's other subordinates nodded and started to chime in.
Fang Linyan raised a finger and said seriously,
"I'm not here to be a babysitter, and I don't have the habit of explaining every time I do something. But since I have brought you out, I will make an exception this time, but there will be no next time."
"Listen, didn't you notice that these centaurs just chopped off the heads of the 2 hill giants, and then inserted them on the wooden stake next to them?"
After listening to Fang Linyan's words, everyone nodded. Those who were quick-witted had already begun to think, but those who were rough in their thoughts were still a little confused,
"Yeah, so what?"
Fang Linyan said,
"These centaurs like to eat meat very much. Look at their grills, they are even roasting the thylacine, but the bodies of the hill giants are still very intact."
"Haven't you seen the opportunity in this yet? Although we don't know why centaurs don't eat the meat of the hill giants, we don't need to know the answer. "
"But the value of the corpse is either to show honor — the heads that were cut off are already doing this, or to feed the meat. If you can't use it for either of these purposes, then do you know what that means? "
Big Q suddenly smiled obscenely,
"In addition to honor and eating, for Carl Jr., the corpse has a third use. This guy's taste is particularly heavy."
