After Arthur said that, everyone fell into silence.

This is not a risk but a death. The level of danger is no different from directly leading troops into the orc court.

"Captain, since you have proposed it, you must have a plan in your heart. As long as you tell us why we should do this, even if I, Old Jose, will accompany you!"

As a veteran who has been in the army for twenty years, Jose has seen all kinds of officers, who are greedy and afraid of death, who are willful and reckless, and who are going through the motions. Of course, there are also those who are strict in governing the army, leading by example, and loving soldiers as if they are like sons, but they have never seen an officer like Arthur.

He charges forward but does not obey military rules. He speculates and makes money but values ​​friendship. He often takes the soldiers to take risks, but all risks contain huge benefits. Arthur uses his own actions to infect every soldier around him.

Everyone around him has actually gained the benefits brought by Arthur. Not to mention Jose, Monkey and others, they are the most ordinary soldiers below. During this period, the equipment and money they have received with Arthur were all things they could not make in their lifetime. Not only money, but Arthur also brought them the honor of warriors, one victory after another, and so many orcs died under their own swords. This is the highest honor of warriors.

Therefore, Jose believes in Arthur and is willing to bet on his life with Arthur!

After Jose, monkeys and Lund, the warriors who followed Arthur from the beginning, also stood up one after another.

Yes, it is because of trust that even if you know it is a death, you are willing to accompany you to die!

Arthur's expression was a little excited. He seemed to see the mercenaries who would rather die in battle than leave Captain Keynes to escape by himself.

"According to our previous plan, we will use the orcs to retreat and find an opportunity to return to the border when they retreat, but judging from the information revealed by Leon, the war seems to have no sign of ending in a short time. If there is an opportunity to take you home in advance, I am willing to take risks for it!"

"The strength of our cavalry regiment is now strong enough. Can we use the speed of the cavalry to break through the orcs' defense again and return to the human area? Is the risk taken in this way smaller?" Silas suggested tentatively.

Arthur glanced at Jose, and Jose took the initiative to explain, "We have studied Captain Serras' plan before. The reason why we can gallop across the border is because the orc wasteland is too large, we have enough strategic depth, and the orcs' pursuit forces are too scattered. The routes returned are only Cedar Forest and Sigh Canyon. The orcs have always been strictly guarded and are not within our consideration. As for the cedar forest, they are now an orc.

In the rear area, the orcs had suffered the loss of sneak attacks behind our human legion, so they walked a large number of rangers behind themselves. A cavalry of such a large scale could not escape the orc scouts quietly slipped through the defense line. Once the orcs were found to have a human cavalry appearing behind them, we would face the encirclement of several orc cavalry regiments at the same time. Without depth and no support, the probability of us breaking out is almost zero."

After Jose finished explaining, Silas was silent.

Arthur then said: "The reason why I accept Leon's deal is that in addition to taking you home early, there is a second idea. I know that this time I am actually taking the blame for Leon, but as a human soldier, what will you choose when an opportunity to kill the son of the Beast King is placed in front of you? Think about it, if this mission is done, this battle is enough for you, your son and grandson to be proud of forever. This is the highest honor of a human warrior!"

Arthur was not a speaker, but his words made every soldier present excited.

"And I tell you, this is not a mortal mission. If we decide to take action, we will definitely confirm that there are no orc heroes in Hicks's guards. As long as we can find a way to kill the orc warriors in his guards, we will naturally have a way to solve the problem for other orc guards."

"Captain, how do you think we can deal with the orc warriors?" the monkey asked impatiently.

Arthur then slowly turned his gaze to the dwarf Tulutuk who was drinking under the tree beside him holding a wine gourd.

It took a long time before the dwarf realized that Arthur was looking at him. Not only Arthur, but everyone's eyes were on the dwarf.

"What are you watching me?" The dwarf didn't even know that he had heard Arthur and the others' discussion before.

Among all, Arthur knew the strength of the old dwarf in front of him, and could kill the level 6 Lion Warrior half-death with one blow. This dwarf definitely has the strength of a warrior or above.

Dwarves are the only race in the intelligent race of Belland Continent that does not have a magical profession, and they only have warriors. But dwarves are different from human races and orcs, and there is no clear level division of warriors' combat power. No one knows how to measure the combat power of a dwarves, but an unquestionable fact is that dwarves never lack high-level combat power. High-level dwarves have never suffered a loss in fighting against orc heroes and human generals.

If the old dwarf's combat power is included, Arthur will be confident of taking this risk.

Arthur smiled all over his face, "I want to ask you old man to help us fight with the orcs."

Unexpectedly, the old dwarf refused Arthur, "I only know how to make irons, but I can't fight. I can't do anything to use a knife or a gun."

"Look, you can follow us all these days to drink and meat, and you can choose the ore you like first. Of course, I said that these are not about the price, but about us as friends."

The old dwarf nodded, he did not object to this.

"Since we are friends, when we are in trouble, should we do our best as friends?" Arthur induces us smoothly.

The old dwarf is the most comfortable one in the cavalry regiment. He neither participates in battle nor decision-making. He is always half drunk when holding a wine gourd every day. He is only awake when he is divided into trophys. When he is happy occasionally, he will wave a hammer to help the soldiers repair their weapons.

Arthur was so attentive and respectful to the old dwarf, naturally, to make it easier for multiple powerful thugs at critical moments.

But what Arthur did not expect was that the old dwarf did not even realize that he owed others favors. Arthur said all the good things, but the old dwarf's head shook like a rattle, just not letting go.

In the end, Arthur blurted out, "As long as you agree to help, you can just mention any conditions. As long as you ask, I can agree to whatever I can do."

A sly gaze flashed through the old dwarf's eyes, "The wealth of gold and jewelry is meaningless to us dwarves. We are only interested in cherishing ore and creating peerless weapons. I have never seen the material for the sword behind you, so..."

"No, the Star Falcon Sword can't be given to you." Before the old dwarf finished speaking, Arthur refused. He would never trade the things left by Captain Keynes.

The old dwarf still refused to give up, "You misunderstood. I didn't plan to ask for your sword. Just let me knock a small piece from your sword to study it."

"That's not possible!" Arthur refused very firmly. The Star Flowing Giant Sword followed Arthur for so many years and had experienced so many battles, but there was no damage at all. He would never let the old dwarf destroy the sword.

"Then there is nothing to do." The old dwarf spread his hands and sat aside and went to drink.

The plan was in a deadlock before it even took shape.

Arthur stood there for a long time and did not move. The officers below looked at Arthur and did not move. The scene was extremely quiet, so quiet that even the heartbeat could be heard.

Arthur bit his lip and seemed to finally make a decision.
