Chapter 179 - 179

A few meters away from the luxurious carriage of Baron Masud was another carriage that didn't lose out to his own in terms of extravagance. The two carriages crawled through the sands slowly as their drivers controlled the stallions that were pulling them. If Lord Masud's stallions were pure white, the ones pulling the other carriage were black in color.

"How long till we enter the land of the orcs?" Baron Husani slid open a small window which was at the forefront of his carriage, which gave him a vision of the one driving his carriage. "I don't know, my Lord, but I think it will take us roughly a week or two." the carriage driver of Baron Husani replied without turning back.

Baron Husani closed the small window, then turned towards his bed where a few beauties were still fast asleep after the strenuous exercise that he had with them a few hours ago. It had been months since he last tasted a woman a last night he went all out and released all his piled up last as the prince didn't care about them and proceeded to enjoy himself with her woman which was a torture to them since they can't get laid.

Moving ahead of the two luxurious carriages were the soldier of the two Barons who they had conscripted from their lands. Baron Husani had a total number of six thousand soldiers, including his private army that survived the previous battles, while Baron Masud had five thousand five hundred soldiers with him. The prince gave them command of a thousand and five hundred Ereian Royal Army soldiers then a four thousand of the Ereian Army which brings their total number of army to seventeen thousand excluding the servants who are taking care of their baggages and the two thousand Ereian Royal Cavalry who are at the rear just following after them at their own pace.

The army, led by the two Barons, had their morale at an all-time high as most of them just came from a string of victories against the monsters that invaded into their lands. They have encountered many orcs in the previous battles, which they defeated easily, which in turn boosted their morale as they were going to fight against the same race as the ones that they slaughtered.

The soldiers had a confident look on their faces as they march but little did they know that the orcs that they fought can't be compared to the ones that they are about to fight against.

Inside the Fortress of Vir after the day that the Ereians finally settled down, Xiao Chen had them all gather in the grounds right beside the command center. All five thousand and two hundred and eighty-six of them were there and patiently waited for what the leader of the orcs was going to tell them.

Xiao Chen confidently walked towards the raised platform while being flanked by Adhalia and Draegh'ana, who returned to maintain their surveillance of him. With a serious face, he panned from left to right, then back as he observed the Ereians, who were quick to avert from his gaze and not one of them was brave enough to hold his gaze against him, not even for a second.

"I don't know the exact reason why all of you made your way to our lands, which were littered with danger in every corner. But judging by the appearance that you had when you first came here, I can guess that you have been wronged. Your eyes, which are filled with hate and thirsts for vengeance, say it all. I will help you get your revenge, but first you have to prove to me that you have the will to carry it out." Xiao Chen shouted as his booming voice echoed all over the fortress. He moved his gaze around while observing the facial expressions of the Ereians, which showed nothing but hate and anger, but it wasn't directed at him nor his kin, which made him glad.

"We, the orcs, will be aiding her in her quest to seek justice for what happened to her family. She wants revenge and she will have it with our help. You all also want revenge for the wrongdoings done to you and you shall have it." he continued as he tried to make his reason for conquering the endless sands sound as rightful as he can. There is no way that he will tell them that the real reason he is going to conquer their lands was because of the resources that they could possibly have in their lands and to further advance his ambition of creating a mighty empire of his own.

"Are you all with me?" he shouted his question at the Ereians, who were still in surprise. The Ereians thought that the leader of the orcs would speak in their own language and Adhalia will translate his words to them in Ereian for them to understand but no, the chieftain of the orcs was speaking in pure Ereian like he was a native and could even speak the language better than some of them.

"Yes!"

"We are with you!"

"Yeah!"

The Ereians shouted in response while raising their fists up in the air. Xiao Chen went silent as he observed them. He smiled as he succeeded in his little manipulation and hiding his true intentions in heading for the Kingdom of Ereia.

"I am glad that you are all with me. Now, it's time for you to train and learn the basics. I don't need you to be the strongest, but I need you to be the most disciplined. Strength is useless in a battlefield if you don't have any discipline unless you could take on the entire army of the enemy on your own, which is impossible." he shouted then turned his attention at Sakh'arran, Gur'kan and Trot'thar.

The three moved up to the platform and stood behind the chief and stared at the excited Ereians who still haven't settled down after being fired up.

"These three will be the ones who will be training you. Obey their words, for they are the law while you are training. If you want to experience a more gruesome and exhausting training, you are free to disobey them." Xiao Chen chuckled as he stared at his three commanders who had stoic faces as they stared at the Ereians who finally quitted down.

"Alright then... You guys will take it over from here..." Xiao Chen handed the responsibility of training the Ereians to his three commanders as he went down from the platform. He had other things to deal with, which was of much more importance than overseeing the training of the Ereians.. Even the training of the Skalsser orcs was handed to Aro'shanna, Maghazz and Arkagarr.
