At this moment, the person standing before Jack was none other than Zhuo Ge, chieftain of the Great Zhou centaur clan!
"Chieftain, what are you doing here?"
Since Copper Furnace Fortress had also been plagued by green-skins year-round, after forming a strategic alliance with Copper Furnace Fortress, part of the Great Zhou forces had been stationed permanently along the fortress's border defense line.
The night-vision-capable centaur troops led by Zhuo Ge were the main force among them.
Hearing Jack's question, Zhuo Ge was visibly stunned.
"That's what I should be asking you! This is the outskirts of Copper Furnace Fortress. What are you doing here?"

Jack went completely blank. He instinctively turned around and glanced in the direction he had come from.
"The outskirts of Copper Furnace Fortress?"
Jack had never imagined that after running all this way, they had somehow ended up right back at their own doorstep.
After all, everyone knew that Copper Furnace Fortress lay right next to Great Zhou. From the Great Zhou Plain Fortress to Copper Furnace Fortress, it only took half a day on horseback.
Wasn't this basically home?
For a moment, Jack's feelings were indescribably complicated. With no time to think about it, he hurriedly told Zhuo Ge everything they had gone through.
Zhuo Ge's expression changed drastically after hearing him out.
From Jack's battered appearance alone, he could tell that something had definitely gone wrong.
Even so, he had never expected the casualties suffered by the Northeastern Army's centaur cavalry to be so catastrophic!
Diak, the commander leading them, had even died in battle!
For the Great Zhou centaur clan, this result was undoubtedly a grievous blow.
However, as chieftain, Zhuo Ge managed to keep his composure at this critical moment.
"I'll have someone take you back to camp to rest
