Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family
Chapter 122 Rescue
"Lord City Lord!" The orcs on duty finally waited for Cheng Mo. When Cheng Mo heard that the stray orcs dared to use innocent lives as threats to trick the orcs inside into opening the city gate, he hurried over.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Cheng Mo said hello and then lay on the wall to look down. The female orcs and cubs below were still crying. Maybe they were hungry for too long, and their cries for help became weaker and weaker. Cheng Mo frowned tightly, his face full of anger. He pounded the wall hard, and the anger in his heart erupted like a volcano.
"These guys! They are so cruel!" Cheng Mo cursed with gritted teeth, his fists clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound. He wished he could rush down and tear those hateful stray orcs into pieces.
"Lord City Lord, what should we do with the females and cubs down there?" asked an orc.
Cheng Mo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that acting impulsively now would only make the situation worse. He had to come up with a solution that would save those innocent lives without putting the city in danger.
"We have to save innocent people, and this city gate cannot be opened." Cheng Mo tapped the wall with his fingers, his mind working rapidly, thinking about various possibilities. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of a good idea.
"These people are baits they deliberately put." Hen Yi also came over and analyzed calmly, "Don't blame me for being cruel. After all, the baits below are not necessarily all good."
Cheng Mo was silent for a moment after hearing this. He also thought of this possibility. But looking at the pitiful people below, his heart was full of contradictions and struggles. He knew that he could not make a wrong decision because of temporary sympathy, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
At this moment, a bold idea flashed through Cheng Mo's mind. He raised his head and said with a firm look: "We can send a small team to sneak out of the city quietly, go behind the enemy, and wait for an opportunity to rescue people. At the same time, we continue to confront the enemy on the city wall to attract their attention. In this way, we can find an opportunity to rescue the trapped females and cubs. We will not bring those females and cubs in immediately. I will place them in the place where I used to live. It is more hidden there and those wandering orcs will not find them!"
This idea was recognized by everyone, so Cheng Mo quickly organized an elite team and prepared to take action.
Because of the previous sneak attack, the stray orcs have now increased their vigilance. There must be a lot of stray orcs watching closely. Cheng Mo led his men to the outside of the city, and sure enough, the stray orcs were hiding behind the bushes and looking outside the city gate.
Hen Yi stepped forward from the city wall. His tall and straight figure immediately attracted the attention of the wandering orcs below. Hen Yi stood high on the city wall and shouted excitedly, "Wandering orcs below! Do you really think that letting these females and cubs cry here will lure us to open the city gate? You are too naive!"
The eyes of the females and cubs below, which were originally full of hope and pleading, instantly became dim after hearing Hen Yi's words. They stopped crying and collapsed to the ground in despair. They did not resent the orcs in the city, because in such a difficult time, those females and cubs squatting outside the city gate crying were just baits. They were lonely and helpless, and if they were rescued rashly, they would probably only attract fierce attacks from the stray orcs outside the city. Instead of doing that, it would be better to ignore them from the beginning.
The wandering orcs hiding in the dark saw this and cursed angrily: "What cruel guys! How can they be so hard-hearted and watch someone die without helping!"
Cheng Mo led his men, carefully avoiding the enemy's eyes, and quietly went around to the other side of the city gate. There were relatively few stray orcs squatting here, compared to the number of people they brought with them, so it was best to attack or retreat from this direction.
At this time, a stray orc walked out from the crowd and yelled, "Hey! The orcs in your tribe are too cold-blooded! There are females and cubs down there!"
Hen Yi was so angry that he almost laughed after hearing this. He retorted: "We are ruthless? Don't you feel embarrassed when you say this? Why are these females and cubs here? Don't you have any idea?" The wandering orc was speechless for a moment, and then he remembered that these females and cubs were actually baits they used to lure the enemy.
"Hey! The methods you guys are using are too low-level! Call your boss out to talk to me!" Hen Yi on the city wall deliberately raised his voice, trying to attract everyone's attention in order to create favorable conditions for Cheng Mo and others to rescue the trapped people.
The wandering orcs below looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, a bald orc finally came out. He stood there and shouted loudly: "I'm here, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Hen Yi shouted, "What on earth do you want to do by surrounding our Qiming City? You can't defeat them by fighting, and you can't deceive them by cheating. You might as well go back to hunting and feed your family."
The bald orc looked at the city gate greedily and said, "We can't defeat them? That's not necessarily true! Besides, we are wandering orcs! Who wants to hunt to support their families? Of course, it's more comfortable to plunder everywhere! I think your tribe is pretty good! Let us move in and live there when the time comes!"
The bald orc laughed wildly after he finished speaking, and the wandering orcs behind him also laughed, their eyes staring greedily at the city gate.
Just as those wandering orcs were laughing wildly, Cheng Mo cleverly used this opportunity and made several obscure gestures of action. The orcs behind him understood what he meant and quickly and nimbly stood behind the wandering orcs.
They moved as fast as lightning, grabbed the necks of the stray orcs in front of them at an astonishing speed, and twisted them hard. In an instant, the stray orcs collapsed to the ground without a sound, their bodies became limp and powerless, and they had lost their lives.
There were some wandering orcs around who heard the unusual noise, but when they turned around, they only saw a few orcs standing quietly in the same place, without any abnormality. So, these wandering orcs turned their heads away nonchalantly and continued to immerse themselves in their imagination.
Seeing that the wandering orcs did not notice anything unusual, Cheng Mo was secretly happy and quietly retreated. At the same time, several orcs on the other side were piling up wet wood. Cheng Mo raised his head and observed the wind direction. After seeing that the wind direction was correct, Cheng Mo nodded slightly, and the orcs immediately understood his intention and began to light the fire.
Wet wood could not ignite a flame, and at most could only produce wisps of smoke. The smoke drifted towards the city gate with the breeze, and at this time a group of wandering orcs were standing at the city gate. At first, they just felt a little smoke in the air and did not react much. However, when the smoke billowed around and the vision gradually blurred, the bald orc could not help but curse: "Who is making a fire? There is so much smoke! I can't even see the road!" The other wandering orcs around also echoed the curse.
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted loudly: "There are enemies! Enemies are coming!" This cry was like a fuse, instantly igniting the whole scene. The crowd began to get restless, and the already tense atmosphere became even more solemn. The bald orc's heart tightened, fearing that there would really be an enemy coming to attack. He threw a punch without hesitation, breaking the tree trunk next to him. Then, he swung the tree trunk and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Who! Where are the enemies?" However, the bald orc's blow did not hit the enemy, but accidentally knocked down a group of stray orcs around him, and painful wails suddenly rang out all around.
