Chapter 55: He Actually Voted?
The war between the two tribes broke out in full swing, except for the pants industry and the Li tribe, other tribes participated in the war, intending to carve up the territory of the human race, for fear that it would be too late and they would not even be able to share the leftovers.
In just half a month, more than half a million orcs have gathered to participate in the battle, and this number is constantly increasing.
Other races living in the Inland Wasteland Mountains have also been involved in the war.
The small tribes did not have enough strength to attack the main city, so they took the opportunity to harass the weakly defended towns nearby, and plundered supplies and food after the incident.
In the face of the strong invasion of the orc race, the human knights behaved in a panic and did not even dare to resist, but all those who resisted were smashed into pulp, and after being defeated, they were slaughtered.
The difference in strength between the two sides is too great, and it is far beyond imagination.
In the past, the Terrans could rely on the advantage of equipment, but now the weapons of the Orcs are significantly more advanced.
Over the years, due to the protection of the magic defense line, the orc race has not been able to attack the Monty Kingdom on a large scale, even if it is a riot, it is only a riot of twenty or thirty thousand people, and it can rely on the advantage of numbers to solve the riot, and there has never been a phenomenon of hundreds of thousands of orcs pouring into the kingdom at the same time as now.
For two thousand years, the orcs had been the ruling class of Azethea, occupying the most fertile coastal plains, and absolutely unwilling to become slaves of the tiny Terrans.
When the first arrow was fired, other oppressed races entered the war one after another, and it was destined to be a battle to win back their dignity.
At present, the most pressure is Petersburg, located in the northernmost part of the Monty Kingdom, the geographical location is too remote, and at the beginning of the war, it was surrounded by the main army of 200,000 of the trouser and Li tribes.
The nearest planetary city was unable to send reinforcements to help, and the knights of the Sun Tower were forced back by Greenland's arrow array.
There were 300,000 knights in the royal city of Monty, but the royal city was more than 500 miles away from Petersburg, and it took at least ten days to reach the great army and the long journey.
The orcs can stay where they are and set up their formation, wait for the arrival of the Golden Knights, and then encircle and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
"Open the warehouse, distribute all weapons to the civilians of the city, and prepare them to meet the enemy. ”
Gladstone stood on the city walls, his eyes resolutely looking into the distance, the corpses of orcs piled up under the walls, and the pungent smell of blood everywhere.
In just seven days, Andrei's army of the trouser industry launched twenty-nine siege battles in a row against Petersburg, the moat was filled with dead bodies, and a long crack was blasted open at the mouth of the city wall.
50,000 silver armor, to the end, only 4,000 remnants remained.
"City Lord, we may not have reinforcements. ”
General Decka collapsed by the wall and wiped the sword in his hand back and forth, "If you resist another wave of offensive, Petersburg will be completely shattered, this battle is good, brothers do not regret following you to fight." ”
"Don't be discouraged, as long as there is still a soldier left, we can still fight, it is too early to talk about defeat, transfer the 20,000 new soldiers that have just been levied to defend the city, and then bring all the prisoners and slaves on death row in the city, and let them help build the city wall.
In addition, let the young and middle-aged people in the city be ready for battle, and move the women and children to the tunnels, and after the city is broken, we will fight the orcs in the streets. ”
Gladstone did not give up, even if he could not hold Petersburg, he would still inflict heavy damage on the orcs.
Petersburg is the first line of defense against the Orc Race of the Monty Kingdom, in addition to the high walls of the city, there are also underground passages in the city, even if the city gate is lost, you can still use street battles to fight the enemy.
The situation of the trouser clan who was responsible for the attack outside the city was not good, and the repeated strong attacks led to the loss of troops and the loss of heavy grain and grass.
"Damn, aren't these humans afraid of death? After the city is broken, I will definitely kill all the knights and the old and weak women and children in the city. ”
Andrei never dreamed that the weak human beings would dare to defend the city to the death?
"Commander, as long as Gladstone is still standing on the city wall, no knight will dare to take half a step back, he is the backbone and spiritual strength of Petersburg. The adjutant reminded.
"Then find a way to kill him first, and then attack the city, and send someone to ask the leader of Satan, what the hell is he doing? ”
After this battle, Andre no longer dared to underestimate Gladstone, and immediately stopped the strong attack and repaired for a short time.
The spies planted in the city are ready to move, and the idea of assassinating Gladstone is initiated.
After several days of fighting, Petersburg was in chaos, and it was not difficult to get close to Gladstone.
......
On the other side, the orc legion led by Chen Feng was camped outside the Star Planet City, but he drank and had fun every day, and had no intention of storming the city at all.
Deal with it once in a while, swing out the arrow array, and shoot indiscriminately into the city.
Even so, Carol was also frightened, after the city defender was about to die, he was terrified all day long, for fear that one day the Star City would be captured by the orcs, and he had no intention of defending against the enemy.
Although the city of Monty sent a large number of knights and mages to the outside world, their main support was Petersburg in Gladstone, not the Astrological City.
"Resist stubbornly, when the city is broken, the orcs will definitely slaughter me, rather than this, it is better to surrender as soon as possible. ”
Carol has 40,000 elite knights in his hands, and the canyon is dangerous to defend, but he doesn't have the courage to face the orcs.
In the past few days, he has already started to think of surrendering.
Since the battle on the side of the Astrological City had not made a big stir for a long time, Greenland rushed to the camp overnight and asked, "What the hell are you trying to do? Believe it or not, I will destroy all the antidotes to the Gu poison and make your Royal Highness the princess die an ugly death." ”
"Since you have handed over the military power to me, how can you fight? ”
"According to the current situation, Gladstone and his Petersburg will soon be finished, and the orc army will need to cross the Astral City to attack King Monty, I will give you three more days in the end, if you fail to capture the Astral City, you will bear the consequences. ”
"Don't threaten me all the time, I'm not scared. Chen Feng raised the muzzle of his gun and pointed at Greenland's back, "It's really not good, I'll capture you first, and then exchange the antidote with the Tatar leader." ”
"Oh, aren't you afraid of death, and your Royal Highness the princess is not afraid of death?" Greenland frowned, and hundreds of ice threads wrapped around the foot of the bed and spread towards Chen Feng.
"Commander!"
Several orc guards hurriedly broke into the camp tent, and scratched their heads in confusion when they saw the scene in front of them.
"I'm joking with Commander Chen Feng, what's the matter to say!" Greenland raised his hand to put away the ice silk.
"It's Planet City, Carol has opened the gates and raised the white flag to surrender to us. The guards reported truthfully.
"Carol, this waste ......" Chen Feng covered his head, speechless to the extreme.
He didn't want to attack the Astrological City at all, and the daily wind and arrow fire was just a cover to hide the Tatar leader, dragging down the rhythm of the orc attack and buying time for the reinforcements of the Monty King City.
When reinforcements arrived, he immediately withdrew.
But I never expected that in the end, it would be in this way to capture the Star City.
Carol has a heavy army in his hands and occupies a natural risk, he actually voted?
