Chapter 951 Bad News (1)
The city of Hita was now occupied by a powerful rebel army. The leader of this rebel army was a man who called himself Osato.;
This Osato is quite powerful, but it has not reached the level of full beastization. At best, it is at the peak of the fourth form. Moreover, his bloodline is the golden python of the middle-level giant beast. Among the middle-level giant beasts, it is also very powerful, not inferior to the bloodline of Count Stanwen's crocodile, and even more powerful.
Osato also took advantage of the chaos of the Holy Dragon Empire and quickly gathered a group of people, captured several cities, expanded his strength quickly, and became a very powerful rebel army.
At this time, in the city of Hita, Osato stood on the city wall. In the sky, there were scouts specifically reconnaissance around them, composed of soldiers with the bloodline of giant beasts that could fly. Such scouts had a relatively high status in the entire giant python army.
"Swoosh".
A reconnaissance soldier in the sky flew down to the city wall and said respectfully: "God of General, we have discovered a caravan ahead."
"Cargoyle?"
Osato's eyes lit up. His army had a lot of expenses. He had captured several cities but in fact he had not replenished much. Many of the supplies were almost exhausted.
The caravans happened to be rich, and these rebels occasionally played a guest appearance as bandits, which was nothing new.
"Did you see clearly how many people there are in that caravan?"
"There are about five hundred people, of which 300 were wearing armor and riding horses. They were cavalrymen of the Grand Guards, and they should be mercenaries of the caravan."
These scouts were still very careful in reconnaissance. Osato pondered for a while and asked, "Did you see the flags of mercenaries? Generally, famous mercenaries have flags. The stronger the mercenaries, the more they are."
Osato still seemed very cautious. The mercenaries invited by these large chambers of commerce were not ordinary people, but often regular troops, and even the opponents of these mercenaries. What's more, the Giant Python Army was just a slightly stronger rebel. Osato himself failed to reach the level of being completely beastized, and was far from comparable to those most powerful rebels. Naturally, he had to be more cautious.
"Your Excellency General, what we see is a huge blood-colored crocodile."
"A blood-colored crocodile? Is it a terrifying crocodile?"
Many thoughts flashed through Osato's mind, the bloodline of the terrifying crocodile, which he had heard of, and the bloodline of the middle-level giant beast, which was similar to his golden python bloodline.
Moreover, the bloodline of the terrifying crocodile is rarely distributed on the continent, in the Holy Dragon Empire. The only one with a little more powerful is the Huidri Eman family in the Giant Rock City.
Especially the Earl of Stanven of the Eman family of Huidri, the fourth form of beastization is not inferior to Osato. If the Stone City had not colluded with the barbarian tribe, they would have encountered difficulties in the Stone City.
"It should be Earl Stanwen. Hehe, the legendary Earl Stanwen's bloodline of crocodile is very powerful. This time, you need to have a good experience. He was escorting the caravan. He should not know our situation and thought that the city of Hita was not falling. Well, we will let them in and then beat the caravan all in one go!"
Osato finally made a decision. He had a total of 20,000 giant python soldiers. Although they were not strictly trained, they had experienced war and were now all elite.
Of course, Stanvin's cavalry had to have some advantages, but if they entered the city, they would be ambushed in advance, even the elite cavalry would not work.
"The order is to hide all the people of the Giant Python Army for me and let this caravan enter the city and let the people from Hita City cooperate, otherwise, the city will be massacred!"
Osato showed a cruel smile on his face.

On the wide road, a team of caravans were slowly moving forward along the mainland. The caravan seemed to have a lot of goods, so the outside was protected by fully armed heavy guard knights.
"Earl Stanvin, the city of Hita is ahead. At present, Hita is still in the hands of the empire. We can go to Hita City to have a good rest. After all, we have been traveling for half a month in a row."
The person who spoke was the head of the caravan. They paid a lot of money to hire Count Stanvin, a mercenary who seemed very powerful.
At the beginning, some people doubted that after all, Earl Stanwen's mercenary looks good, but who knows how to fight in actual combat? You know, the current Holy Dragon Empire is not as peaceful as it is. It has to deal with bandits, refugees, and even some rebels along the way. The weaker mercenaries cannot protect the caravan at all, and Earl Stanwen's mercenary was established for too short.
After finally discussing, he finally agreed to hire Count Stanwen. Along the way, Count Stanwen and his 300 Knights of the Grand Guard had driven away many bandits and safely escorted the caravan to the destination. Now he was loaded with goods and was ready to return to Holy Dragon City.
The caravan is now very satisfied with the mercenaries of Count Stanvin.
However, Count Stanwen did not follow the advice of the caravan leader, but sent several Knights of the Hyundai Guard to investigate the reality of the City of Hita, and be careful in everything.
"Mr. Ger, let's stop and rest for a while. After the reconnaissance comes back and confirming that there is no change in Hita, we will enter Hita again."
Earl Stanvin was still very cautious and would rather arrive at Hita City a little late than venture into it.
Mr. Ger, the head of the caravan, thought that Earl Stanwin was too cautious, but this did not harm the caravan, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look first."
After a long time, the reconnaissance cavalry returned and reported to Earl Stanvin: "The city of Hita looks nothing strange. The imperial flag is still flying on the city tower, and there are many people coming and going, and there are no cases of being occupied by the rebels."
"Haha, Earl Stanvin, are you worried too much? There is no problem with Hita City. Let's go, let's hurry up and try to arrive at Hita City early and also be able to rest early."
Mr. Ger glanced behind him and many people were very tired. Not everyone could be like Count Stanwin, who was still so energetic when he was traveling for half a month.
Earl Stanwen also believed in his Knight of the Grand Guard. Since there was nothing wrong with the reconnaissance, he nodded and said, "Okay, everyone has worked hard. Let's go to Xita City for rest first. You will be able to arrive in Holy Dragon City in about half a month."
After saying that, under the escort of Count Stanwin's three hundred guards, the entire convoy quickly rushed toward the city of Hita not far away. (To be continued...)
