When he first served as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, Davout was neither the Grand Patriarch of the Shield Tribe nor the Orc King. So at that time, Davout was thinking about how to use the war for his own benefit.

As for the overall situation of victory and defeat, Davout didn't pay much attention to it at that time. Anyway, as long as they don't suffer losses from the Solid Shield Tribe.

But now, looking at this compatriot warrior all over the mountains, he really wants to make a career as an orc king.

But the seat under the ass is different, and the thoughts in the head are also different. Therefore, he did not refuse the request of the great shaman of the tribe, Amu Gulang, to accompany the army.

I just don't understand why Amu Gulang asked people to bring an iron box that was tied up with iron chains. I also took the initiative to ask about this once, but Amu Gulang was secretive and reluctant to say more. Davout didn't break the casserole and asked to the end.

Now the major event is the Eastern Crusade, and Davout is full of confidence in this.

"A few years ago, the Fireblade Tribe was wiped out by the onslaught of those humans, but we didn't get nothing. We will use those tools invented by human beings on them without reservation.

A strong Sask warrior with a strong wildebeest, who in this world can resist us!"

However, the current orc army is all equipped with saddles, stirrups and horseshoes, so those orc warriors who have wildebeest have become orc knights.

In this way, although the scale of the coalition forces of the Third Crusade has not changed, its combat effectiveness is more than stronger than that of the Second Expedition. And this is an important reason why the Third Crusade can still be carried out smoothly.

The orcs thought they had a weapon of war, and they would be able to win easily.

Therefore, after the coalition army arrived, it only repaired for one day, and the next day they also set off. Once again, the mighty legion fought to the east, and the great war between the two civilizations began again.

......

Southwest 11 watchtower. A very ordinary watchtower hundreds of miles away from Xiping City, there is not even a loud name, and some are just numbers.

As a result, there were no Templars stationed there, but only twenty ordinary Kingdom warriors. Responsible for keeping guard over cities and fortresses to defend against orcs from the west.

Obviously, this is a very risky job. Because as long as the orc army does come, these towers will bear the brunt. So after the end of the Second Great War with the Orcs, these outpost towers on the periphery kept the same number of war horses as the sentinels.

As long as the orcs are killed, the sentries in the tower can abandon the tower and flee on horseback after sending the signal.

Otherwise, ordinary Kingdom warriors would not dare to take such a risk. But after so many years of peace, the once nervous sentinels are now quite accustomed to the life of the sentry.

So the two sentries are now playing a game of "picking sticks" while keeping watch at the top of the watchtower tower. To put it bluntly, it is to use a handful of branches of equal length to close and erect and then make it fall to the ground naturally.

Then choose one of them and pick out the remaining fallen branches from the group one by one. In the process, the other branches are not moved, and you win. Very childish.

But they couldn't think of any other entertainment, and it would be nice to pass the time with such childish games.

And the fighters in the army are often easy to gamble, even such a childish game, but there are bets. So the two people in charge of the sentry played very seriously.

I didn't notice the startled bird thousands of miles away.

It wasn't until the sound of horses' hooves reached their ears that the two sentinels reacted. So one hurriedly raised his warning, and the other went to light a beacon fire and send out a signal.

But at this time, it was obviously too late to react. Before the warning could be shouted twice, the orc's spear nailed the sentry to the top of the sentry tower.

While the other sentry was scrambling to light the beacon fire, the hundreds of orcs who were the vanguard had already rushed into the courtyard below. So in less than five minutes, everyone in the watchtower died under the orc's sword and axe.

However, looking at the beacon fire that had been ignited, the orc commander who led these pioneers couldn't help but curse angrily. I was going to take it by surprise, but I still let Xiping City know the news in advance.

But for this, Davout, who led the army, did not pay much attention to it. This was a plan he came up with in a flash of inspiration, and if it didn't work, it wouldn't work.

However, Dawu didn't expect that because of Liang Tian's sleep, the sudden appearance of the orc army really caught the witch Lin and them stationed in Xiping City by surprise.

So much so that the Wyvern Knight, who was a sentinel, once again confirmed that he had brought back the news that the orc army was about to descend into the city. The defenders, including the witch Lin, couldn't help but be a little flustered.

"What to do, the orcs have already killed a hundred miles away. With the speed of their march, they were ready to conquer the city in two days. But in two days, reinforcements couldn't arrive at all!"

"Why did the orcs come so suddenly this time, and why didn't the Lord send a warning in advance!?"

"What should we do now, how should we defend?"

In the past, Liang Tian gave a warning of this kind of thing, and the orcs hadn't set off yet, so he was like the believers informing the news. Therefore, by the time the orc army arrived, everything had already been prepared.

But now that Liang Tian is asleep and ignorant of everything with the outside world, the believers do not have the benefit of such foresight. Therefore, when he suddenly heard the news that the orc soldiers were coming to the city, he was inevitably a little flustered for a while.

But as a leader, although the witch Lin was also a little caught off guard, the basic qualities of being a leader are still there. Seeing that her subordinates were so messy, she frowned, and she couldn't help but slap the table and scolded: "Shut up for me! Look at your cowardly appearance now, the orcs have not yet come to the city, what are you panicking about."

If the Lord does not send down a warning in advance, you will not be able to resist the enemy and defend your homeland!? Do you not understand that this may be the Lord's test for us!"

shouted like this at the top of his throat, and the originally flustered crowd quieted down. So the witch Lin began to arrange the defense, and at the same time asked her griffin knights to hurry to the king's capital to ask for help.

At this time, Xiping City only had 3,000 Templars and 7,000 Kingdom warriors, and the gap between them and the orcs was too great.

Seeing the griffin knight hurriedly riding his griffin to the east, the witch Lin did not relax. Because she secretly estimated that even if all the reinforcements from all over the country arrived as quickly as possible after receiving the news, it would take about ten full days.

Relying on 3,000 Templars and 7,000 Kingdom warriors, they held out for so long under the siege of 50,000 orcs. This undoubtedly put the witch Lin under a lot of pressure.
