Volume Two [Dark Tide] Chapter 526 Infiltration
"This bunch of useless waste!"
Warlord Lakor's annoyed cursing sound was quickly drowned by the noise on the battlefield, and he threw the leather whip in his hand hard, and the blasting sound of the whistle calmed the front line of the soldiers temporarily. But this cannot stop the fact that he is constantly disappointed: the orc soldiers under his hand have failed the fifth time against the city wall, and even the soldiers trying to escape have been smashed by his whip on the spot ...
The seven-meter long whip with a metal whip tail is so powerful that it can be compared to a sword if you take it casually. Several unlucky deserters are screamed by the skin that was pumped on the spot, but this still cannot stop the negative situation now!
He didn't want to give up!
Armed with logistical heavy forces, Overseer Rakor was nearly 4,000 under the orcs under the fortress. But in the face of a tortoise-like city wall, the orcs have nowhere to start for two days, and can only accumulate more and more corpses under the city wall, and watch the morale continue to decline ...
Orcs on the steppe never build forts or castles. As a result, their combat level has been greatly restricted: the plain charge and melee combat are no problem, but climbing the fortress wall, forcing the boulder and hot oil falling overhead, but the orcs have never done it. thing.
Because of this, even if the fortress wall in front of it is only seven meters high, it still becomes the "tenness" in the eyes of the orcs.
"Don't just go back like that? The guy Sauron will definitely look down on me ..."
Lakor claimed to have a large number of fighters and was therefore the most powerful of the remaining Warlords. He apparently listened to Sauron's dispatch, but the specific battle was always under his command, and he ignored the Sauron's suggestions at all. However, the current situation gave him a headache.
If this attack is unsuccessful, his leadership's prestige will definitely fall sharply. This is by no means an overseer who loves stack powers would like to see.
And just as Lakor was troubled by the siege problem, a messenger rushing from the main force rushed to Lakor, and sent a message from Sauron—Although the orcs had text, the illiterate accounted for It's over 90%, so most of the orders are done verbally.
After hearing Sol's order, Lakor frowned, but now he had no room to refuse, and after a moment of thinking, he decided to execute according to the chief's order: "Retreat! We will change places before dark!"
The so-called overseer actually doesn't know too many military orders. Rakor commanded the original method of grasping straight up and down in the tribe, but the subordinates were relieved because they had long been looking forward to the order to retreat, and they evacuated from the vicinity of the city wall as quickly as possible. , And then gathered the team to go in the direction indicated by Lakor.
One day later, a team of more than 3,500 people surrounded another fortress that was forty kilometers apart-this fortress was never discovered before, and at this time it seemed that the city walls in front of it were better than before. The seat is a lot lower, and the humans on it don't seem to be as dense as before.
Obviously, this is a small fort with weak defense.
This time, Lakor did not rush to attack, because after the arrival of an orc squad returning from the main force, he even started logging nearby and created a "cloud ladder" in situ!
Orcs ca n’t be all mentally retarded if they are stupid. In previous battles, they would also make simple wooden ladders to aid the attack. However, due to the lack of experience in making siege equipment, successive losses are inevitable. But now this team has quickly created six or seven simple folding ladders—the orcs do n’t make wheels, it ’s just that the dozens of orcs rely on brute force to push them under the city walls, although the behavior seems silly. , But the subsequent siege immediately put the fortress at risk ...
Because this is the first time an orc can stand on the wall of a human fortress!
If the knights of the city defenders are extraordinary, I am afraid that the orcs will be able to capture the fortress on the third impact.
The smoke erupted, and the fortress in a critical situation immediately sought support from nearby friendly forces. And the eight nearby Everta knights immediately sent their troops out to help—these days of defensive battles have left these knights out of their initial fear of orcs. At this moment, they no longer think of the power and barbarism of the orcs. But it is full of longing for Jiangong.
A total of about 100 cavalry units and 700 soldiers quickly reached the battlefield fortress. And Overseer Lacol was naturally ready for the battle, and rushed to the front with the wolf cavalry. It was just a face-to-face killing of these Ephta knights!
Orcs don't have the principle that "the coach doesn't go to the battlefield". They only recognize the strong and don't recognize the others. Lakor can rule the 10,000-level tribe. The strength of the power is not something that ordinary knights can stop ...
"Ha ha ha ha kill them! You can't let one go!"
Lakor was in a very happy mood, and these human cavalry, who seemed to be neatly equipped, could deal with it more than the difficult fortress. For the orcs who are best at land warfare, they would rather fight with these human cavalry every day rather than climb the ladder to siege the city-just three round trips, and the eight Aphta knights were hacked to death by Lacol's toma people!
The morale of the troops who came to the rescue suddenly collapsed, and the knights who originally wanted to send reinforcements in the fortress also stopped the pinch of the city ... They watched the orc troops rushing back and forth to kill nearly a thousand reinforcements like harvesting wheat, but it was a little bit There is no way.
The Everett "militias" who have never experienced war have performed extremely poorly, and can even be described by the use of abandoned armored drag soldiers. It was not uncommon for three or five people to be driven away by an orc, but in the end they simply slaughtered on one side.
Lakor vented his grievances over the past few days, but weakened the siege because of his full response to the reinforcements. Just at this time, another team of more than 300 cavalrymen roared and cut into Lacol's team fiercely from the side!
Because of the continuous melee, there were no formations and formations on the battlefield for a long time, so this cavalry with the banner of the Wellington Cavaliers immediately caused a lot of orcs casualties. Seeing this, Lakor immediately led the guards and rushed up. However, the leading Wellington knight did not fight at all. After he led the army to kill the orcs outside the city wall, he decisively covered the troops and the remnants into the fortress.
The cavalry combat power brought by Wellington was far more powerful than the defeated knights before, and Rakor could not organize the team in a hurry. He could only watch this fortress add more than 300 elite veterans.
After another day of unsuccessful assault, Lakor finally gave up the attack, and shifted the target with the remaining parts and only a few heavy weights.
This battle caused Everta to experience massive casualties for the first time, with more than 600 deaths. Thousands of people in the fortress would be slaughtered if Wellington was not in time to help-although the results are not bad, it is not a good signal for the Titus Knights and Sally in Holytown. .
"The orcs seem to be getting smarter suddenly ..."
Titus made such a judgment looking at the movement of the orcs on the sand table.
He didn't know that this was exactly what Sauron did after receiving a mysterious letter.
As the chieftain, Sauron certainly knew what the letter meant. However, the enemy suddenly sent a letter containing information on the territory and the drawing of the siege ladder. He preferred to believe it was a trap.
But it is not a trap, you have to step on it to know. Therefore, Sauron asked Lakor, the strongest overlord, to test. If it was a trap, it would consume more Lakor's troops ... but he did not expect that if Lakor did not have enough siege experience, it would be almost Take down a fortress directly!
Even if it is not able to capture it in the end, the record of slaying hundreds of humans is real, and it is indisputable that the morale of the entire tribe has been restored. Sauron was excited in his heart, but looking at the letter in his hand, he thought more:
Who among humans is fighting Roddy?
What purpose do these people hold for giving this letter to themselves?
His gaze stayed on the southeast side of the Ivtar Territory in the letter ... Apparently the answer was not difficult for Sauron to guess.
"Is that the orc's camp over there?"
Melinzel's voice was clear and calm in the dark.
"Well, the orc's main force is there. Speaking of which I should have an old friend."
Roddy turned his head and glanced. The orc camp with bonfires was not far from the North Cohen Fortress. Looking around, the camp plan is quite neat, and it is exactly the same as some of the way Karen camped. Such a management ability is obviously not something that ordinary orcs can do.
"Old friend?"
"Several times, now he should be the chief of the entire orc army."
After nightfall, Roddy and his party had left the area where Elsen City was located, but instead of heading north into the Gondola Mountains, they proceeded towards the eastern side of the mountains along the edge of the Nehemia steppe. Because the terrain is high, you can clearly see the movement of the orc army when you look at the distant border fortress from here.
However, he did not think that the orcs could treat Everta ~ EbookFREE.me ~ so he was too lazy to think about what Sauron was doing. The team moving in the night is very fast, thanks to the enchantments and buffs used by the accompanying mages-the load of the barbarian soldiers is almost zero due to the long-term application of "floating". At the same time, they do not need to worry about vision problems, and they can go down even faster than ordinary military troops travel during the day.
After traveling for two days and two nights, Rody bypassed Tasman's inherent line of defense in the Gondola Mountains and the radiation detection area of ​​the fortress. According to the path confirmed by Houdini through "prophecy", God was blindly aware of it on one night Over a low, hidden valley in the Gondola Mountains.
Even Roddy lamented Houdini's powerful prophecy spell, because he had only heard of several paths that could avoid the surveillance of the undead, but did not expect that the wizard could directly make it accurate to the map. On, the error does not exceed 50 meters!
The narrowest part of the valley was only two meters, and the barbarian soldiers walking side by side could only walk sideways. As for Irving, who followed Roddy like a humanoid tank, he could only cross by one person. There are also several obstacles in the deep and tortuous road, but these are not problems at all in front of the mage-eventually, with the wet rain coming on, Roddy's team just entered the realm of the Tasman Kingdom unknowingly ...
