The jackal elite mentioned a lot of information in one sentence, but Nie Kong only grasped one point.

Jail.

There may be some small objects in the barracks and Hogg's rooms, and the resources stored in the stronghold should be only valuable, but the prison is often a special place.

It wasn't the first time Nie Kong had come into contact with the concept of prison, and when he occupied the Heavenly Song Fortress, he brought out several followers from the fortress prison who had mastered the elemental incarnation.

In the realm of followers, those who have mastered elemental avatars are already considered to be the best followers, and they have no price.

"Who's in the prison?!" Nie Kong immediately asked.

The jackal elite cried with a sad face: "Two caravans and a few travelers are holding Gu Qin. ”

Nie Kong hurriedly walked in the direction of the prison, but saw a flag bearer running in from outside: "Lord Deputy Flag Master, the sentry post has vaguely seen Hogg and its cavalry, and the speed is very fast, and it will be down the mountain in about three or four minutes." ”

Nie Kong nodded, but suddenly stood still, turned his head and asked him, "Has the sentry been discovered by it?" ”

"Probably not yet."

Nie Kong thought for a while and said, "In this way, you can find four or five people to pretend to fight on the edge of the cliff, bring that jackal elite over, give him weapons, fight it, and let Hogg see it." The others are still cowering in the stronghold and don't show their heads, but don't let the voice of the jackal elite be heard by Hogg, and don't let it fall, we have to pretend to be fighting hard, can we do it? ”

The flag bearer gave a military salute: "The subordinates will definitely complete the task!" ”

"Then go." Nie Kong sent the flag bearer and immediately walked in the direction of the prison.

After the stronghold guards go out, they find that the old nest is ended, and if they come back and find that the stronghold is quiet, it means that the defenders are basically dead, or they are captured and have no ability to fight. If there are outsiders on guard, it means that the enemy is taking a stronghold and stealing resources inside.

The idea that Nie Kong suddenly came up with just now was to disguise the illusion that the stronghold had not been completely occupied, so Hogg would not consider whether to surround or take a long-term view, but immediately support the defenders.

Moreover, from the perspective of Hogg's thinking, if the enemy army and the defenders it placed can fight on a par and have not officially occupied the stronghold for half a day, then it will naturally conclude that the enemy's combat effectiveness is very weak, so there will only be one choice, which is to immediately support the defenders and protect the resources of the stronghold!

If he had time, Nie Kong would personally command his men to set up this smoke bomb, but he didn't, so he could only hope that the flag bearer's IQ was high enough and that they fit well enough with him to carry out this simple tactic.

"It's Gu Qin's banner army! Gu Qin really didn't abandon us! ”

"Oh my God, we're saved!"

"Please, let us out!"

As soon as I entered the cell, someone inside was shouting against the iron railing.

Nie Kong walked forward and took a serious look at the prisoners, there were a total of 12 people imprisoned here, all of them were quite good-looking, and a few of them had sealing chains around their necks, obviously a magician profession!

"Let them out."

Nie Kong immediately instructed his subordinates to open the prison gate and said, "I will let you out, but the guards of this stronghold will return immediately, and I am sure that I can defeat it and let you leave safely." It's just that our army must immediately rush to the aid of other places after the battle, this matter is very urgent, but our army lacks war horses, and there is also a lack of battle magicians, I don't know if you have a way to wish our army a hand? ”

Nie Kong on the Wild Horse King's side didn't know the situation at all, if those horses couldn't be used by him, Nie Kong really didn't know what else to do. Even if you can get a batch of demon wolf mounts after killing Hogg, the combination of wild horses and demon wolves is not enough for his more than 100 people to equip.

"Thank you for your rescue!"

"Thank you, sir!"

These prisoners originally whispered thanks, and one by one they came out, and when they heard Nie Kong's question, they all turned their eyes to one of the old men.

The old man didn't have a sealing collar around his neck, obviously not a magician, but the fabric of his clothes didn't look like a bargain, and it didn't look too dirty, he coughed twice and said: "I am a steward of the Xiang family in the southwest, and I was caught by the demon soldiers in this stronghold in charge of escorting a batch of important supplies, and I couldn't even release the message for help, if it wasn't for the deputy flag lord who saved me and others, I really don't know when I would be able to get out." ”

Seeing that Nie Kong's face was a little impatient, the old man said: "If the request of the deputy flag master is urgent, I can only ask the two escorts of the original caravan to go with you, as for the needs of the war horses, I can't help it, old man, why don't you ask these people?" ”

Nie Kong turned his gaze to the person the old man was pointing at, and one of the middle-aged men stepped forward and said, "I can only send the guards in the caravan to help the lord, and there is nothing I can do about the mount." ”

None of these prisoners could help Nie Kong solve the task of the war horse, which made him disappointed, and this matter could only be seen step by step, assuming that he finally got less than 100 people. Even if you can get to the target location within 50 minutes, if you can't defeat the enemy, you will eventually fail.

Nie Kong now began to wonder if his decision was correct, but it had come to this point, even if he regretted moving back 5 minutes, he could only save some time, and there was no way to solve his problem at the moment.

There are 6 combat classes among the prisoners, 5 of whom are mages, and at the moment they are put on sealed chains and cannot cast spells. Nie Kong checked their attribute panels, his mood improved, and he hurriedly asked people to find the key to remove their chains.

Among these 6 combat classes, there is a Hunter, 2 Wind Magicians, two Nature Magicians, and one Magician, all of whom are level 20 or above. Hunters and wind mages can naturally use it, and they are of great use, but they don't have any equipment on them at the moment, if Nie Kong can't find the right equipment in the stronghold, I'm afraid he will have to think of some other way.

Wind Magicians' Wind Domain is a team acceleration skill, but without the support of mana recovery equipment, their contribution to the team is greatly reduced.

Hogg would be back in a few minutes, and Nie Kong didn't dare to delay the time, so he asked a flag-bearer to temporarily settle the prisoners, and he immediately probed inside the stronghold.

He didn't let go of the barracks, but he just glanced at it and picked up a few demon wolf mount soul stones in the storage box. After entering Hogg's room, Nie Kong directly used the reconnaissance technique and also found something useful.
