328 Broken Camp
I opened a new book "Starting from a Superstar", everyone can help collect it and recommend it!
The two groups of people confronted each other and moved slowly until they reached the half-orc camp a few thousand meters away from the human wall.
Shantali did not bring all the troops with him this time, and left 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the rear camp, after all, in his camp, there are a large army of people who need to eat and chew the grain and grass and baggage, as well as thousands of wounded soldiers, and tens of thousands of human slaves.
Some of these human and elven slaves were the cannon fodder they brought with them to transport their baggage and fill the trenches during the siege, and some of them were small wandering tribes scattered in the wilderness that they caught on the way.
In the eyes of the Shantali people, these slaves were very qualified cannon fodder and two-legged sheep, who could transport baggage, carry the wounded, and when camping, they could also cut down trees, build camps, make all kinds of siege equipment, and when fighting, they could also drive them to rush in front, fill ditches and block arrows and act as cannon fodder.
If one day there is not enough food, these guys are still a very good meat supplement, and they are very qualified two-legged sheep, so Shantali still attaches great importance to these slaves.
Even before the war was over, he did not allow orc soldiers to mistreat these slaves.
This time he launched a general attack, considering that there were still many wounded soldiers in the camp, he simply left 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the camp, on the one hand, to guard the home and take care of the wounded soldiers, and on the other hand, to take care of those slaves, so as not to take advantage of these guys to make trouble.
However, most of the 5,000 people he left behind were old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as those half-orcs who were not suitable for war today, such as wild bee people.
Today, those humans have won the battle, and their morale is exceptionally strong, and they have been slowly staying behind the orc army, and even followed them to the front of the camp.
This made Shantali both annoyed and very helpless, annoyed because these damn humans were so daring that they dared to follow them like hyenas, and really treated Lao Tzu as food for others to slaughter?
Helplessly, although he was very angry, he really had nothing to do with these human cavalry.
Previously, he also arranged for Demasi to fight a counter-charge, but the effect was very bad, not only the two thousand heavy armored infantry he had just collected were all gone, but even Demasi was killed on the spot.
Now let others lead the team to disperse these human cavalry, I'm afraid no one wants to lead the team out at all, everyone knows that the human mage is in the camp of the human cavalry.
In the end, Demaci simply didn't look behind him, and when he arrived at the front of the camp, he asked the heralds around him to signal the orc soldiers guarding the camp to open the door.
The camp was built in a very safe way, and the way it was built was also learned by Shantali and a captured human general, the camp was backed by a hill, not only to shelter from the wind and rain, but also a stream that flowed down from the mountain, which was directly introduced into the camp to provide water for the orcs.
In addition, they also dug a moat outside the camp, that is, the water of several nearby small rivers was introduced into this moat, so the outside of the camp was quite safe.
The walls of the camp are all made of giant trees cut down from the mountains, and they are more than four meters high, although they are not as tall as the human walls, but they are enough.
He looked back at the human cavalry behind him, it was indeed just a group of cavalry, about two or three thousand people, there were no infantry, and there were no siege equipment, he was relieved to see this, they couldn't come to attack the city at all.
Soon the drawbridge was lowered from the gate of the camp, and the gate of the camp slowly opened, and Shantali led his ape-man guards to cross the drawbridge and enter the camp first, and then the other half-orc races, all of which were divided according to their bloodline and class in the half-orc alliance.
At the back of the city were, of course, the kobolds at the bottom of the Orc Alliance, and the werewolf cavalry.
More than 10,000 people entered the camp through a five-meter-wide gate, of course, the speed could not be fast, Shantali had been in the camp for half a day, and the team entering the city had only walked halfway.
I don't know why, after entering the camp, he just felt weird, a strange feeling of panic always haunted his heart, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
He looked up and started to look around, but he didn't see anything wrong.
Suddenly he remembered, why didn't there be the screams of those wounded soldiers in this camp?
A few days ago, in the siege battle, he lost a lot of his men, and there were thousands of wounded soldiers who were originally taken back by the orcs of various tribes to take care of them according to the old rules.
But they were injured too badly by Xiao Feng's hot weapons, even if these orcs had a very strong recovery ability, they could be helpless when they encountered bullets and wounds caused by shell fragments.
So when they returned, they were all screaming and the whole camp was filled with the wails of these fellows, and Shan Tali considered that these fellows were scattered among the tribes, and they could not die for a while, and they kept screaming like this, but it was easy to hurt the morale of the other orcs, so he ordered them to be gathered together and placed in a camp on the left hand side of the camp gate.
In the past few days, many of those wounded soldiers have died, but there are still about 2,000 people standing in that camp, and every time they enter and exit through the gate, they can hear the screams of those guys, but this time they didn't hear it.
At the thought of this, Shantali secretly screamed that it was not good, and then quickly gave orders to his guards.
"Be vigilant, there may be a change, Tam, come here, go blow the trumpet, give the order to everyone to be on alert, and by the way, call a few other generals for me. ”
Shantali dragged his henchman over and commanded, this is a very clever little monkey, this Tamu listened to the command, turned around and went to blow the trumpet.
He quickly climbed to a nearby lookout pole, took out a brass trumpet, and just as he blew it, a black shadow flew into the air, piercing his neck at once.
The monkey, named Tam, didn't even make a sound, and fell directly from the pole to the ground with an upside-down onion.
Shantali, who had been looking at Tamu from below, waiting for him to blow the trumpet, stood up all of a sudden: "It's not good to have an ambush, there's an ambush... ”
The ape guards beside him were even more hasty, and the sound of the long knife coming out of its sheath was then protected in the middle.
The shouts of an ambush soon spread throughout the camp, and the orcs who were still slowly entering the city just now were also stunned, and then looked up at the inside of the camp, and suddenly saw a burst of fire from the north of the camp, and then the camps on the left and right sides began to burn.
I don't know what's going on, this fire is still very big, and it is also very fast, originally it was just a few lights, but in a moment, those fires are connected, and the fire is getting bigger and bigger.
Those orcs are stupid, what's going on?
I wanted to go back to the camp and have a good rest, but why did the camp catch fire?
And at this time, I don't know where it came from, but it kept flying out of bows and arrows, and there were constantly stunned orcs who were shot, and then fell to the ground screaming, but in a few moments, it turned into a pool of thick water.
Seeing such a poisonous arrow, Shantali immediately understood, this poisonous arrow is the bow and arrow used by those poisonous bee people, are these poisonous bee people crazy?
Dare to shoot their comrades, what are they going to do?
The fire in the camp, coupled with the continuous screaming of arrows and falling to the ground, the army of half-orcs, who were already demoralized, instantly became a pot of porridge, especially when they saw the fire, which actually spread to their side.
Some orc soldiers wanted to rush to the camp to put out the fire, while others wanted to rush out of the gate and stay away from the fire, losing their unified command, coupled with their low morale, the orcs quickly became a mess.
Shantari loudly beckoned his subordinates not to mess around, and at the same time sent people to contact the leaders of the other orcs, but when the black light was blinding, coupled with the fact that there were half-orc soldiers scurrying around, he couldn't contact the other orc leaders even if he wanted to.
At this time, there was a sudden thunderous rumble behind him, and those human cavalry actually took advantage of this time to start charging.
If it had been in the past, even if there were more of these human cavalry, the orcs would not have been afraid of them, but now they themselves have become a mess, and there is no discipline at all, and the military formation can be said of.
And many half-orc soldiers can't find their direct leader at all, there is no command, let alone order, how do you let these half-orcs resist?
At a distance of several hundred meters, the human cavalry rushed over in the blink of an eye, and the cavalry knife in his hand was round, rushing to the place where the orcs were gathered, it was a wave of waving, and every time the knife fell, it could take the lives of several orcs.
And the half-orcs who had been running for almost the whole night finally collapsed at this time, some people wanted to turn around and fight, some people wanted to flee for their lives, their ideas could not be unified, and they became more and more chaotic on the battlefield.
There are human cavalry coming to chase and kill, once the speed of those high-headed horses is added, there is no need for human cavalry to swing their swords, but all the orcs who stand in the way of these war horses, unless you are a rhinoceros, will all be knocked out.
For a while, there was chaos in front of the drawbridge in the camp, and countless half-orcs even jumped directly into the river to escape for their lives in order to avoid the pursuit of human cavalry.
The orcs inside the city wanted to escape from the fire and rushed out of the city, and the orcs outside the city wanted to hide from the human cavalry and hide in the camp, so the two groups of people were frozen at the gate of the camp behind the drawbridge, huddled together.
At this time, Xiao Feng's JLTV combat vehicle also arrived slowly, looking at the half-orcs in front of him who were crowded into a mass of thousands of numbers, he sneered and pulled the bolt, it was time to harvest the lives of these half-orcs.
And when Shantali inside the camp heard the gunshots outside the camp, he knew that it was all over.
