In order to prevent this from happening, he deliberately placed the siege equipment corps far away, and the closest distance between the two sides was three hundred meters, and the farthest was five or six hundred meters.

Wanting to use it to bombard Sophia's fortress was secondary, mainly to test the waters and lure out the opponent's heavy firepower so that he could observe the movement.

He always felt that Sophia was full of confidence, and the reason was probably due to the use of black powder.

As it turned out, Terrence was right in his guess.

It was the artillery regiment led by the Eternal Night Army that had just struck.

Terrence repeatedly estimated Sophia's use of black powder, but in the end he underestimated it.

It's just that their siege equipment troops don't show their heads, and once they show up, they basically can't keep them.

Not to mention that it is only placed four or five hundred meters away, even if it is placed one or two kilometers away, as long as it is located, it is only a matter of several rounds of saturation shelling to be destroyed.

The technical gap between the two sides is not a matter of one or two steps as Terrence imagined, but a difference of several kilometers.

It is not normal not to be crushed, but it is normal to be crushed.

This round of precision artillery bombardment, like a slap in the back, was slammed on the back of Hai Ridong's head, and everyone couldn't help but smack their teeth and gasp, directing the army to retreat frantically, further widening the distance between the two sides.

But he was still one step slower, and he blew up the siege equipment camp of the Sea Ridong Department to the sky.

The artillery positions in Sophia's army immediately turned their guns and bombarded them indiscriminately.

All of a sudden, people turned on their backs.

Countless horses were startled by the cannonballs that fell beside them, lost control, and jumped wildly, throwing off the large number of Odin orcs.

Before the Hai Ri Winter Department could attack Sophia's army, it lost its troops, leaving thousands of corpses in place.

"This Sophia is harder than we thought, it's not easy to gnaw, it's really not possible, so we bypass them and rush directly into their hinterland, anyway, they are infantry, and they can't catch up with us. "Chief Greg's attitude, which was originally a dominant force, has changed subtly.

"We have to fight, if we can't beat them, we rush in, it's a dead end, because at that time, we don't dare to divide our troops at all, and there can't be such a big military target for us along the way, seize food supplies, what if they have this kind of weapon on the head of their big cities?

Our siege engines will not have a chance to get close, they will be bombarded, and when the time comes, our warriors will only be able to rush forward with their bare hands, piling up their own flesh and blood.

They will chase and intercept us again, and within a month, our army will be completely torn apart because of the lack of food, and then our end will be even more miserable, and those who can return to the prairie alive are afraid that there will not be one out of ten.

Compared to those city castles that have been in operation for an unknown number of years, their temporary camp is easier to breach.

Their fortifications were sharp, and it didn't change the fact that most of them were recruits.

As long as all their veterans are killed, all that remains is to drive the sheep and drive them to help us break down the gates of the castle. ”

Terrence, who had not advocated attacking Sophia's stronghold, had a 180-degree change in his attitude.

If they do this, it will certainly bring devastating destruction to the Byron Alliance, but they will also jump into the cage themselves, and they will lose their freedom to advance and retreat, and once Sophia first recaptures the broken vein defense, they will have no way out.

With such a sharp siege weapon, Terrence really didn't have the confidence to be able to defend the Broken Pulse defense with a small number of Odin orcs.

"It's death left and right, so let's fight. Chief Hai Ridong gritted his teeth and made a final decision, "From the rising sun tomorrow, the three sides will attack at the same time, regardless of life and death, day and night, Terrence, I will give you 20,000 elites, interspersed behind them, and intercept all their supplies, especially the supply of the wrath of the gods, to me." ”

"Understood. Terrence understood the call.

Chief Hai Ridong This is the last thought of dispelling the last thought of not being ready to pay a large number of casualties, and preparing to fight a war of attrition.

Trade the lives of your own tribesmen for the opponent's cannonballs.

It was the cruelest and most helpless exchange, because they had nothing but the lives of warriors.

Judging from the current situation, even a life for a life is worth it.

It's just that war is something like that, and it's never as simple as doing math problems.

The number of soldiers, the equipment of soldiers, the morale of soldiers, and the degree of training of soldiers are not all, but only a component of them.

"What should we do today if the enemy prevents us from continuing south, does not give our people a chance to survive, and does not allow us to gain more wealth?"

"Kill them, kill them, kill them!"

"We Odin people have the right to live freely today, it has never been given by others, it was Odin the Great who led us back then, and seized it with our own hands, and it is the same today, we have to use our own hands, from those two-legged sheep, to eat meat and drink blood, and to obtain the right to survive for our people, for the tribe, for glory. ”

"For the Horde, for the Glory!"

"Smash their camps, tear their armor, and kill them all!"

"Ulla!Ulla!Ulla!"

After a robber-like morale boost, countless Odin orcs were bloodshot and screamed, rushing towards Sophia's camp, ready to take it in one go.

In the eyes of ordinary Odin orcs, there are not so many calculations, in their eyes, Sophielia's camp is not comparable to the Broken Blood Fortress that has been operating for more than three hundred years, and it is not on the same level as the Broken Pulse Defense Line they have captured.

The Broken Pulse Line, which claims not to fall, is now lying at their feet and groaning, what is a small camp?

Soon they learned what saturation was called.

Hundreds of infantry cannons were fired at the same time, the sound of artillery fire came and went, and blood and flesh splashed everywhere, even if the ears of those war horses were completely blocked, they could not be completely isolated.

Manpower is a joke in the face of this new thermal weapon, including those known for their bravery and the Eye of Odin, who can at best run a few more steps and evade faster than ordinary soldiers if a cannonball lands a short distance.

If you want to use flesh and blood, or armor, it is purely because you think you are dying too slowly.

The Odin orcs were clearly not stupid to that extent.

More precisely, they had already paid their tuition fees in the previous two attacks on the Broken Pulse Line, and had already somehow figured out how to deal with the thermal weapons - the Skirmish Front.

The distance between the soldiers should be stretched large enough, once the cannonball falls on the side, not only will there be enough room to dodge, but the number of Odin orcs killed by that time will be relatively limited.

Therefore, the first wave of the offensive of the Hai Ri Winter Department looked huge, but in fact it only used 30,000 troops.

The main purpose is to deplete the enemy's shells.

That's what they did when they attacked the Broken Pulse Line.

There's no way around it.

Technology is not as good as people, and they can only take flesh and blood to top.

As a large number of Odin orcs died, the mysterious tower in Sophiria's military camp also came into play.

Countless rays of light that were indiscernible to the naked eye emerged from the dead Orcs and then sank into the tower, brightening the shimmer of light on it.

Heroic Soul Tower.

This is its scientific name for the Eternal Night Command.

As the name suggests, its effect is the same as that of the Heroic Soul Banner, and it is used to temporarily collect and store souls, but it is a fixed type.

Previously, when Sean led his wife and daughter on patrol, he built this thing on a large scale.

Compared with the Heroic Soul Banner, although the Heroic Soul Tower has fatal defects such as inconvenient to carry and more construction consumables, it also has many artificial advantages such as more power of law, wider enveloping range, greater absorption power, and lower lower limit for absorbing souls.

Priority is given to those densely populated areas in towns, after all, military commanders can't ask residents to die in designated locations, right?

What's more, the affairs of the second world, even in the Eternal Night Military Lord, are military secrets, and ordinary people can't understand it for the time being.

It is still feasible to plan a high-death area like a hospital to the nearest location of the Heroic Soul Tower.

Sean went to the Sea and Winter Department to promote the Heroic Soul Army Flag, which was obviously an unrealistic thing.

They can only use the Heroic Soul Tower to forcibly collect the souls of their soldiers.

is still the same sentence, when they die, their outlook on life and worldview will be strongly impacted, and the love and hatred before their lives will become much weaker.

The most important thing is that their life and death will be in Sean's hands, and if they don't cooperate, they will end up in disarray.

In order to cope with the huge pressure from the Shadow Master, Sean no longer cares, whether this is a disguised slavery or not.

Those foreign invaders who are eyeing him will not give him time to integrate all the forces and forces step by step.

When the Odin orc soldiers in the sea and winter department rushed into the 400-meter range of the camp under artillery fire, there was a roar from the ground one after another, blowing countless war horses and Odin orc knights into the sky.

They stepped into the minefield of the military fortress.

"Withdraw! withdraw!"

The courage of the Odin orcs was not infinite, and the mine array became the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely crushing the courage of the vanguard army.

Thousands of corpses were dropped, and the first wave of attacks by the Hairi Winter Department ended in nothing.

From the beginning to the end, not to mention the casualties caused to Sophilia and them, not even a single arrow could be sent into their army.

The only result, presumably, was the consumption of thousands of their shells and mines.

Even before this, I have been mentally prepared accordingly, and I still feel a burst of tooth soreness.

When such a war starts, it is really infuriating and helpless.

"Drive the flock up and trample their minefields. "The First Advisor Terrence has been sent out, and Chief Hairidong can only give advice himself.

"But our flock itself is small. There was a chieftain down there, and the chief couldn't help but mutter.

"Since you are reluctant to flock the sheep, then you will take your own tribe and continue to rush forward, as long as you can push them outside their military fortress, it will be the same for us. Chief Hai Ridong roared with red eyes.

Stupid people make a lot of mistakes, and at this time, they still have the heart to feel sorry for their flock.

I don't know if they can't break through the other party's military fortress, they won't be able to continue south, and they will all die here?

As soon as they heard that they were going to send their own tribes as the vanguard to charge, the chieftains suddenly stopped moving.

In the previous posture, they saw with their own eyes, a typical who rushes and who dies, before they lure the opponent's shells and consume them, they are only afraid that it will be difficult to touch the opponent's barracks.

The Hairi Winter Department is not a harmonious group, they are just a consortium gathered together to fight against Ulaanbari, among which there are many tribal chiefs, each with their own rights and interests, and there are countless things that intrigue and quarrel with each other.

If there is a benefit, one by one rushes faster than anyone else.

If it's not good, one by one they will shrink back.

They all want to preserve the strength in their hands, after all, the Odin orcs are also wolf competition internally, if the strength loss is too great in the process of southern invasion, it is difficult to ensure that they return to the Odin grassland and will not be swallowed up by other tribes.

But the question is, if you think about it, how can this battle be fought?

The fact that the Hai Ri Dong Department hesitated for so long on the line of defense against the broken vein, and did not make up the decision on whether to go west or south, also has a certain relationship with this complex internal environment.

After they made a decision, they did not order and prohibit the promotion, but they had to deal with these leaders with great effort first.

They had no choice but to reach a consensus after being forced by the fog dividing line.

Even so, there are some unbelieving chieftain leaders who secretly send soldiers to try to cross the barrier of treacherous fog.

The result can be imagined, no matter how many they send, they are gone forever.

"We have five hundred sheep with sharp horns. ”

"We have two thousand black claws. ”

"We have eight hundred short tails. ”

"We ......"

"We ......"

The various tribes, like squeezing toothpaste, pieced together the flocks of sheep that hit the minefield little by little, and made the black line on the face of the Hai Ridong chief.

I couldn't help but lament in my heart, how could they have fallen to such a point now, when was it as difficult to take the sheep as it was to take the cows and horses?

Seeing their stingy appearance, Chief Hai Ridong really wanted to wave his hand and tell them all the cattle and sheep, and they went out by themselves.

But countless pairs of hungry eyes flashed in front of his eyes, and the heroic words were swallowed hard.

Food shortage is not a matter of one tribe or two tribes, but as a whole.

His tribe is not only not better than the others, but worse, after all, he is different from the well-known Ulan Bari, if he wants to win people's hearts, he needs to set an example everywhere.

If he also follows the example of Ulaanbari and gives priority to his own tribes, what reason will the tribes below follow him?

After half a day of discussion, in the end, the entire Hairi Winter Department pieced together an army of 200,000 sheep, which was also divided into three routes, and drove towards the Sophilia military village.

Although this move was somewhat unexpected on Sophia's side, it was reasonable.

After all, it is better to use a flock of sheep to step on thunder than to employ people.
