662 Soldiers are coming to the city

The City under the Forest is a large city outside the Orc Secret Forest, and it is also the first city on the border between the Secret Forest and the Napal Prairie.

It used to belong to the territory of the ape-man Ao Guang, but now it is flooded with a large number of orcs who have fled from the grassland.

All kinds of half-orcs gathered here, minotaurs, pig-headed people, kobolds, werewolves, centaurs, leopard heads, etc., the forest city, which was originally a big city, was crowded by these sudden influx of uninvited guests.

If it was in the past, Ao Guang naturally wished that the more these people came, the better, and the more orcs came, so that he could collect more taxes and have more income.

But now, in the face of the half-orcs who packed the city, he couldn't be happy at all.

First of all, these refugees who fled were all refugees who had nothing, and they ate and drank him every day, and what made him even more worried was that these people also brought bad news.

The Grim Reaper of Riverrun City has actually led a human army to fight!

This... Simply ...

Ao Guang really didn't know how to describe his mood at this time, just a year ago, when the human army encountered orcs on the battlefield, they would only flee from the wind.

But now, these damn humans, under the leadership of the god of death in Riverrun, dared to go out of the city to fight the orcs in the field, not to mention, and now they dare to attack the orc's lair.

This... Is there any reason for this?

Although he couldn't accept it psychologically, Ao Guang still made the most correct choice, on the one hand, he sent someone back to the forest to inform the Great Elders of the Alliance, and the Rushing City Grim Reaper had called.

On the other hand, it is to arm all the people in the city and prepare for the arrival of the Reaper and the human army of Riverrun.

Those ordinary orcs can run, but as a half-orc general, he can't run.

Besides, if he runs away, what will he do with this forest city? This is his old nest!

Even the old nest is lost, not to mention the shame, and the ape-man king Kari Khan will kill him when he turns around.

So he had no choice but to resist to the end here.

The city under the forest is backed by the secret forest, facing the Napal prairie, surrounded by a flat river, it can be said that there is no danger to defend, fortunately in the early years, Ao Guang followed the alliance army to conquer the human kingdom over there, and made a lot of achievements.

Therefore, his superiors rewarded him with a lot of human slaves, and he drove these human slaves to cultivate the land while also strengthening the city defenses.

However, he did not strengthen the city defenses to prevent the invasion of the enemy, because at that time, he never thought that anyone would dare to invade the territory of the orcs.

The reason why he asked people to build the city walls high and big was purely to show off and show off the grandeur and wealth of his city, after all, this was the first city where orcs extended from the secret forest to the grassland.

Whether it is in the forest or the grassland, he has to pass through his city, so he does not collect less money, because he has money, so how can he repair his home a little more magnificently?

But he didn't expect that an unintentional show back then would become his lifesaver.

He was old, and he was disabled on the battlefield in his early years, so he didn't participate in the battles of Riverrun City these times.

But he could hear from the people who had come back about the Reaper of Rushing City and the awesomeness of the human army over there.

Although he felt that the man's words and boasting were relatively large, he also felt that the Reaper of Rushing City must have some real skills.

So he didn't dare to be sloppy, there were more than 50,000 apes stationed in this city, and almost 100,000 human slaves belonging to his tribe.

Now there are almost 200,000 orcs of all kinds pouring in, and Ao Guang ordered his subordinates to arm all these people who can fight.

As an important transportation hub city, the Orc Alliance has not been short of stockpiling food and weapons in this city.

So they lacked nothing, and soon Ao Guang organized an army of 100,000 people, although the quality was uneven, but at least the number of people still made him feel a little confident.

The day after he was ready, the legendary human army finally slaughtered the city of Linxia City!

Ao Guang climbed the city wall more than ten meters high early, and used a monocular captured from the Human Empire to look at the human army in the distance.

At this time, this army was slowly moving towards the city of Linxia from a distance, and in front of it were hundreds of scout horses, and their fanning shape continued to sweep across the battlefield.

Some orcs who did not have time to hide in the city were driven down from the grass and tree branches outside the city by these exploration horses.

The orcs jumped out of the haystacks and branches, and the girl began to run towards the city wall, and the human horses followed them unhurriedly, and the sound of laughter and abuse could be heard from far and wide.

Their attitude was very casual behind the orcs, as they were about to rush into the range of the orcs' bows and arrows on the walls.

The human scouts sped up and rushed behind the orcs, either with their crossbows or bows and arrows, or with their cavalry knives.

Watching melons and chopping vegetables all the way, hundreds of half-orcs were all put down not far in front of the city wall, and the screams of those half-orcs dying lingered in the ears of the defenders of the city wall, and they did not disperse for a long time.

And Ao Guang on the city wall, as an old soldier, watched the battle speed of those human horses at this time, and he didn't speak for a long time.

It was a young ape-man next to him, who was eager to try, and finally saw a human cavalryman pierce an ape-man with a shot, and then pick it into the air, and the young man couldn't hold back.

"Wow!"

The young ape-man monster screamed, and was about to jump off the city wall to fight to the death with those human strange soldiers, but at the moment when he drew his knife and stepped forward, he was held down by Ao Guang.

"Zhijie, don't go. ”

"Why? ”

"Hey!"

Ao Guang sighed: "This is no longer the human soldiers I told you about before. ”

The old ape-man Ao Guang had been fighting for many years, so he naturally knew what the soldiers of the human imperial army were like before.

He remembered very well that the armies of the Human Empire, as well as some of the lord's guards, and the king's personal guards were the elite, and those aristocratic young men were all riding tall horses and wearing armor, and they could fight.

But even those young people don't have the momentum of these human scouting horses under the city walls.

Each of these human scouts rode tall horses, and their horses were equipped with a saddle that made it easier to control the horse.

In this way, when the war horse is galloping, even if they don't use their hands to control the horse, they can control the horse with just their legs, and the freed hands can better control the weapon.

There were also strong bows and crossbows they used, all of which Ao Guang had never seen before, but he was sure that the power was no less than what he had seen before.

And these negotiations seem to be light horses, but in fact, they are all wearing leather armor, and the leather armor is also inlaid with iron plates, protecting the vital parts, and even iron helmets are left on their heads.

And in the saddle bags of their horses, there are short spears, hand axes, cavalry knives, and even some people are loaded with cavalry guns, this is just an outpost scouting team, but they are all armed to the teeth, so do you need to talk about the army behind?

In short, this army can be said to be completely different from the human army he has seen before.

What's even more terrifying is the decisive temperament they show on the battlefield, and the skillful means of dealing with those orcs.

This was unimaginable before, and Ao Guang remembered a few years ago, when he was with the orc army on the human empire.

At that time, the human army, after a few major battles, was defeated by them, as if it had no soul, and the human army that had never had a fighting soul was completely fearful.

At that time, even if they didn't use real soldiers to fight, they were just some flat-headed ordinary people, carrying hoes to face those human armies, and those human armies would scatter in a hurry.

And the human army in front of them can be said to be completely different, they are a team that has been recast with military souls, and the army with souls and beliefs is the most difficult to deal with.

So although his youngest son Zhijie was indignant and actively asked for battle, Ao Guang never agreed to his idea of going out of the city to fight.

At this time, there was a sound of gongs and drums from the human army outside the city, and Ao Guang hurriedly returned to the city wall again, picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance.

I saw that behind the battlefield covered by the probe horses, rows of cavalry with four horses in parallel began to enter the battlefield, these should be light cavalry in the mouth of humans.

Their equipment was similar to that of the scouts, and behind their phalanx were rows of heavy cavalry with swords and guns, and their armor was so shaky that people couldn't open their eyes.

Although these heavy cavalry did not charge, when their horses began to line up and enter the battlefield in unison, the dull sound of horses' hooves like thunder immediately made the orcs on the city wall silent.

Then a pair of horsemen entered the field, but as soon as they entered the field, they dismounted, removed their equipment from their horses, and then they led all their horses behind.

Ao Guang understood that this should be heavy infantry...

A pair of human army phalanxes began to form under the city wall, although they did not directly attack the city, but the momentum brought by such an army overwhelmed Ao Guang on the city wall and the orcs under his command.

Are these human beings crazy? When they rush to the city wall, don't they know that they are going to attack the city directly?

Looking at the phalanxes under the city wall, Ao Guang was silent, and soon he saw that in the passage between the human phalanxes, there were thousands of half-orcs, who were chained and driven out from behind.

These orcs, all old and weak, women and children, were tied to a rope every ten and came to the front of the battle.

The human soldiers, each of whom was given a straw cake, then stuffed a dirt bag in their hands.

The meaning is very clear, it is to send these orcs to fill the moat!

Seeing this, Zhijie, the youngest son beside Ao Guang, looked up to the sky and roared: "I'm angry!"
