Unlike Fengxin City, the Orcs on the Nufang Grassland reacted much faster.
In fact, they had noticed Gu Xi the moment he left the Great Wall.
At first, they had been quite dismissive of him.
What could a mere eight hundred people possibly do?
It was not until Gu Xi opened the Troop Stockade City Gate and released an army of one hundred thousand that they grew nervous.
They immediately mobilized their troops and prepared to encircle and annihilate Gu Xi.
Compared to the Dragonmen's leisurely movements, the Nufang Orcs reacted remarkably quickly.
Gu Xi and his forces had only advanced a little over seventy li when the Nufang Orc troops arrived.
The Orcs who appeared this time were neither the main force of the Nufang Orcs nor their Three Calamities. They were merely ordinary Orcs.
When these Orcs appeared in the distance, Gu Xi felt as though he were seeing a white cloud drifting across the grassland.
The sight left Gu Xi rather speechless.
Only when they came closer did Gu Xi realize that they were a group of Sheep-head Orcs herding an enormous flock of sheep.
These Sheep-head Orcs were not short at all, standing around 1.8 to 1.9 meters tall. They had sheep heads and human bodies, wielding long weapons such as spears and sickles.
Since they were mixed among the flock, it was impossible to see what their legs looked like for the moment.
But according to Gu Xi's judgment, they ought to have had sheep legs.
There were roughly eight or nine thousand of these Sheep-head Orcs, managing a flock of more than three hundred thousand sheep.
Gu Xi was somewhat surprised by the appearance of these Sheep-head Orcs.
He was certain that the enemy would discover him.
After all, this area was Nufang territory.
