Chapter 579 580. Special Forces

After Hacksall's decisiveness silenced Hilton and he did not dare to resist, a group of people walked out of the tent one after another.

Most of them are guys who can still maintain their dignity under such difficult circumstances, their clothes are not dirty or messy, and they are well-nourished.

It seems that they should be the most resourceful people in this refugee group.

That is, businessmen, property-owning craftsmen and the like who were brought down by the war.

Originally, these people could still eat well and even protect their property when other civilians in the refugee group were almost starving to death.

But today, after Haxo expressed his determination that "whoever blocks the way, the whole family will die, and I am no exception", it is estimated that these people should give up their miserable selfish desires.

A surprising change, Mr. Hacksaw.

When the people who were in charge of the logistics of the refugee group were almost gone, Lan En, who had been standing at the edge of the tent and witnessed the whole process, clapped his hands and softly praised.

Compared with the previous impression, I almost thought that some kind of monster had twisted your mind.

Hakthor smiled and looked at Lan En calmly.

He does not have the identity of calling Po Lan En, just like he does not have the identity of calling Po Xili.

Lane, like Dandelion and Geralt, is still not sure of his underlying intentions.

But since everyone already has a tacit understanding, it might as well be maintained.

So Hacksaw responded.

War, war is the most terrifying and most human-distorting monster in the world, Master Bordon.

If the mind of a person who has experienced war has not been distorted or changed, then that is a phenomenon worthy of vigilance.

When a person's social status and wealth are accumulated, these profit factors are swallowed up by the war.

When a person sees with his own eyes the faces of his former acquaintances, friends, and relatives being trampled under the hoofs of horses.

Those who have been ravaged by the war will never be able to go back to the past even if they spend the remaining half of their lives healing their hearts.

Ive learned the lesson. Lan En looked at Haxor in silence for a while and then nodded. "I will remember."

The brief exchange of greetings was considered acknowledgment that Lan En had joined the refugee group and was considered an old acquaintance of Huck Thor. Belong to someone you can trust.

The next people in the tent are those who are responsible for specific tactics and battles, and are related to the next steps of the refugee group.

So Hacksaw officially started the discussion meeting.

Before we can discuss which direction to send reconnaissance next, we have to face the problem of tonight.

Stewart stood up from his father's side, pointed to their current location on the map, and said in a deep voice.

We have a total of seven teams going out to look for supplies today, but until now, it has been more than an hour after the stipulated return time.

But only one has come back.

Then, the very young knight raised his eyes and looked at the three witchers.

Obviously, its them that Im talking about.

There is no news about the rest.

One in seven survival rate. Lan En stood aside and said softly. "Isn't this low success rate an exaggeration? I guess this is not normal?"

In this situation, Geralt and Gerd were actually very uncomfortable. Because traditional demon hunters have always adhered to the principle of neutrality.

"Demon hunters don't care about the conflicts between human countries, nor do they take sides, they just hunt monsters."

But Lan En is not a traditional demon hunter, and he also knows that when the situation in the general environment gradually reaches a certain level, "neutral" no longer represents safety -

It means that both parties think you are the opposite person! Both parties want to kill you.

So even though he just arrived today, Geralt and Gerd unconsciously handed over the representation rights of their three witchers to him at this meeting.

This can be regarded as an instinct for the Emperor's Children when entering political situations.

Prioritize finding your own position, and then use your position to gather strength.

An officer wearing a shabby military uniform next to Stewart whispered: "One in seven is not only abnormal, this mission completion rate is simply a disaster!"

If Lord Haxor hadnt squeezed out the oil and water from those moths just now, this kind of loss would even cause the entire refugee group to be without food for at least two days!

There was nothing to eat for two days. Based on the physical condition of the refugees outside and the ambient temperature at this time, it was conservatively estimated that at least half of the refugee group of nearly a thousand people would die.

So why did Hackso suddenly grab everyone's supplies today when the factions within the refugee group had been maintained for so long?

Lan En was secretly guessing next to him.

With only one hour of decision-making time, the former royal steward made such an important and decisive decision. This shows great judgment and determination.

So. At this moment, Geralt, who was behind Lan En, suddenly spoke with a heavy tone.

So, its those **** who are chasing us?

Lan En vaguely heard the sound of his old friend subconsciously clenching his fists and tightening his leather gloves.

It's a bit interesting. Just mentioning it made Geralt subconsciously tense up his muscles.

Is it a difficult enemy?

Stewart held up the table with the map and spoke calmly.

Maybe they discovered our whereabouts and followed us, but its also possible that their range of operations happened to wander here. You have also met with them, Master Geralt.

As if to take care of Lan En, who had just arrived, Stewart raised his face from looking at the map and gave a brief introduction to the huge witcher.

That was a group. No, it should be a large group that was broken up and dispersed like a scout group.

The young knight considered his words, trying his best to describe accurately.

They are the elite among the elite. Although from the perspective of discipline and organization, they dont feel like members of the Nilfgaardian military, but when it comes to killing and tracking, I guess no one can be more professional and efficient than them.

After the city of Sintra was captured and the Nilfgaardian army entered the mode of sweeping the country, these tough and powerful guys appeared in various places.

Sometimes they work and help the Nilfgaardian military. But sometimes they act on their own.

At this point, Stewart's expression seemed a bit like he couldn't make up his mind.

"Just a guess." He emphasized this point first, and then raised his eyes in the direction of the witchers.

I feel like they were scattered on the battlefield by the Nilfgaardians to deal with some special targets.

"These targets are mobile and small. So it is impossible to mobilize a large army to catch up, or it is not cost-effective. A small group of conventional troops cannot handle them. So a special force was specially formed to deal with them. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? ?"

The witchers nodded silently.

This is also the reason why there is a group of demon hunters in this world.

The vast majority of monsters cannot be used to form an organized army, but most monsters come and go quickly, are secretive, or live far away from people.

So much so that the kings and lords were unwilling to let the army march out to deal with them, because the baggage of the army's march alone was already very expensive.

The Witcher is largely a solution born out of an economic problem.

Listen to this meaning.

The positioning of this group of people on the battlefield of Nilfgaard is very similar to that of demon hunters.
