Chapter 1223 - 1223 206 Night Raid on the Imperial Court

1223: Chapter 206: Night Raid on the Imperial Court 1223: Chapter 206: Night Raid on the Imperial Court On a sunny day, Hudson led a team of over two hundred, boarding the Giant Dragon Brand Transport Machine as they boldly set out on their expedition.

It was clear that this move was to take advantage of the Orcs’ lack of top Strongmen.

At the flight height of the transport machine, it was totally invisible to the naked eye below.

Furthermore, hidden by a Magic Barrier, even Sanctuary Powerhouses could potentially be deceived if not paying attention.

“Marshal, are we on the wrong course?

This isn’t the same location marked on the map.”

Robert asked, puzzled.

As a Mage and an Arcanist, he had always had a strong sense of direction.

Robert was certain that the direction of the Giant Dragon’s flight was not the target.

“It’s not wrong; this is the right direction.

Maxim is a frequent visitor to the prairies and knows the distribution of the Orc Major Clans like the back of his hand, how could there be a mistake!

Rest assured, we’ll arrive at our destination in a few more hours.”

Hudson said cheerfully.

The path was definitely not wrong.

If a Giant Dragon lost its way during flight, it would be a laughing stock for thousands of years.

If the route didn’t match the markings on the map, it was because Hudson decided to change the target of this operation at the last minute before the action started.

Knowing that the Orcs had set three targets in preparation, and still leading the team into the trap, wasn’t that an insult to the intelligence of Marshal Hudson?

Unable to ascertain the location of the Orc Inherited Land, there’s no need to bother trying to confirm it, just target the Four Great Orc Empires and you can’t go wrong.

Even if the Orcs obtained the inheritance, it would take time to enhance their Species’ strength.

For the next few years, the pillars of the Orc Empire would still be the Four Royal Families and the Seven Great Royal Clans.

Instead of fixating on the elusive Orc inheritance, it’s better to cut off the pillars of the Orc Empire first, laying the foundation for a new round of war.

As for whether the Orcs would rise to the sky after obtaining the inheritance, Hudson was not worried at all.

A review of history showed that after the opening of the Orc Inherited Land, their strength did indeed increase, but not to the extent that they could overturn the dominance of the Human Race.

As a multi-species empire, the first reaction after internal power balance is disrupted is always internal strife.

Who knows when the Orc Empire will stabilize?

Before that happens, the Kingdom has long been ready for war.

There is no other way; plans never change as fast as circumstances.

Relying solely on the strength of the Alpha Kingdom to gather resources for a counter-offensive against the Orc Empire would require no less than a decade of preparation.

But the situation now is different, with the establishment of the Five Nations Alliance, Alpha Kingdom has gained four “power banks.”

Using this analogy to describe allies is not quite appropriate, but essentially it is exactly that.

For Alpha Kingdom, the greatest significance of the Five Nations Alliance is the addition of four logistic supply stations, followed by the increase in political influence.

Robert, unaware of the truth, was completely confused, even wondering if his own judgment had been wrong, and wished awkwardly to dig a hole to bury himself in.

Fortunately, everyone’s composure was good, no matter what they thought internally, no unusual expressions were shown on their faces.

Time flew, and suddenly Maxim slowed down its flight speed.

Looking down through the barrier, the group saw an unusual number of Hawkmen flying below, as if they had poked a Hawkman nest!

“Is this the Hawkman Air Force practicing flying?

Marshal…”

Before Robert could finish, Hudson nodded and replied directly: “Yes, this is the Hawkman Court.

The intelligence department paid a hefty price to find their location.

Today, our mission is to destroy the Hawkman Court, and by the way, wipe out several large Hawkman Tribes nearby, thereby eliminating the Orc’s Aerial Forces!”

The agreed mission of destroying the Orcs’ Inherited Land turned into eradicating the Orcs’ Aerial Forces in the blink of an eye, and everyone had no idea how to comment anymore.

Is this the way the Kingdom Marshal conducts warfare?

But why even deceive one’s own people?

…

A string of whys had no answers.

“Marshal, the mission given to us by the Kingdom was to destroy the Orcs’ Inherited Land, but now changing the mission suddenly seems too…”

Before Archbishop Tyron could finish, Hudson cut him off: “Your Grace, the Bishop, we are indeed carrying out the mission of the Kingdom.

The Orcs are full of tricks; they set three locations for the opening of the Inherited Land, who knows what kind of traps are waiting for us?

Rather than risk falling into the enemy’s trap, it’s better to take the initiative and disrupt the enemy’s deployment.

Among the four great Orc Empires, the Hawkman Court is the weakest.

If not for the advantage of flight, their strength would only be enough to be categorized as a Royal Family.

Compared to many Orc Major Clans, the number of Hawkmen is not large, only a mere million or so.

By wiping out a few of their large Tribes, we would reduce their population by one-third and their strength by two-thirds.

The strategic significance of this is something everyone should be clear on.

It just so happens that the Orcs have set traps to lure us, so we might as well turn their scheme against them.

If I’m not wrong, this is when the Hawkman Court is at its most vulnerable.

Their elites of the Tribe and the military Elite might be lurking in some corner, waiting for us to fall into their trap!

If we’re lucky, we might even capture a few high-ranking Hawkmen and force information about their Inherited Land out of them.”

A classic bait and switch, yet it sounded reasonable enough to everyone.

If they really follow Hudson’s plan, the Orcs’ Aerial Forces would be finished.
