"Chapter 64: The Battle of the Breakout: I"
In such a love, it is impossible to know whether the love for another person is a disguise of self-love or the opposite, and if the love is happy, no one really needs to care about it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

During the nine days that the battle cluster, the city defense army, and the Flame Legion took turns defending the Fourth Main Fortress, the orc army outside the fortress remained stationary, and did not launch any active attack on the Fourth Main Fortress, not even a tentative attack.
The precious nine-day rest time not only allowed Hua Mu to heal all the wounded soldiers of the battle cluster and most of the wounded soldiers of the city defense army, but also restored the combat strength of all the armies of the battle cluster to the peak state of combat strength, and the combat strength of the fourth main fortress reached 170,000.
Marquis Bernard, who had completely broken with Bai Feng, really chose to be tough to the end, handing over the wounded soldiers of the Fire Legion to those light magicians who did not have a high realm for treatment, and as a result, only 3,000 lightly wounded people had regained their combat effectiveness, and there were still 5,000 seriously wounded people waiting for treatment.
The light magic of the light system is performed by the light magician whose realm is lower than that of a high-level magician, and its specific healing effect is not very ideal, and compared to the war doctor Hua Mu, it is even worse than 108,000 miles, and the two sides are not at the same level at all.
In terms of healing effect alone, Hua Mu's ability is stronger than that of the light mage, no matter how serious the injury, even if the injured soldier has his last breath left, as long as he is still alive, Hua Mu, who has a magical healing potion, can cure him!
What's more, the light mage is using his own magic power to heal the wounded soldiers, and the rare high-level light mage can heal about a hundred wounded soldiers at most every day, while Hua Mu is treating with healing potions, and the number of wounded soldiers that can be cured every day is much more!
The 5,000 wounded soldiers of the Fire Legion who could not be healed by the light magicians were finally ordered by the Marquis of Rundstead to be allocated to Bai Feng's battle cluster, and as a supplement, Bai Feng needed to transfer 2,000 recovered veterans of the city defense army to the Fire Legion.
Faced with the steps personally given by the Marquis of Rundsteadt, the Marquis of Bernard, who was having a headache for the wounded soldiers, pretended to twist and walked down, and the wounded soldiers of the 5,000 Fire Legion turned into elite veterans of the battle cluster.
The inaction of the Marquis of Bernard made the wounded soldiers of the Fire Legion, who had been wailing in pain for more than ten days in serious injuries, completely disappointed him, and Bai Feng and Hua Mu extended a helping hand, which moved them, and also gave their loyalty to Bai Feng who saved them.
Because these five thousand elite veterans who have recovered their combat effectiveness are all from the Flame Legion, and their loyalty is also guaranteed, Bai Feng did not integrate them into the various wings that have been fully restored, but into the pro-soldier guards in the form of a complete unit.
In this way, the pro-guard army had two reserve forces of 5,000 men, and the total strength of the battle cluster exceeded 60,000, and with the 39th Army Corps and the 40th Army Corps in full strength, the number of troops directly under Bai Feng's control reached more than 80,000.
Just when the armies in the Fourth Main Fortress were seizing the time to recover their strength, the orc army outside the fortress was not idle, and the orc army surrounding the Fourth Main Fortress had reached an astonishing 300,000 in number after being mobilized and strengthened in the past few days!
The 300,000 crushing orc army surrounded the fourth main fortress that was fighting alone, and if it weren't for the abundant food and materials in the fortress, maybe the orc army would be able to break through the fourth main fortress by relying on this kind of encirclement alone.
Even if there were enough food and supplies, without the support of rear resources, the consumption of food and drink by the 200,000 troops was very terrifying, and the limited food and materials in the fourth main fortress could only sustain the consumption of 200,000 soldiers for three months at most.
Bai Feng, who has a teleportation array in hand, can leave the fourth main fortress at any time and go back to Rome to get food and various supplies, but this does not mean that he is willing to defend the fourth main fortress, after all, passive defense is equivalent to giving all the initiative to the enemy.
When the orc army outside the fortress began to force thousands of imperial craftsmen to build ladders, siege towers, battering rams, and siege vehicles, all the soldiers inside the fortress knew that the eastern provinces of the empire had probably been captured by the orc army.
It's just that they don't know that the orc army that captured the five eastern provinces of the empire and the orc army that captured the Sunset Fortress are not the same orc army at all, and at this time, the size of the orc army surrounding the four main fortresses far exceeds the highest estimate of all the imperial generals!
In addition to the 300,000 orc warriors outside each fortress, 50,000 werewolf cavalry were active on the periphery of the fortress to prevent the defenders from breaking through and escaping.
The other 300,000 or so orc warriors, under the unified command of the fox king Cahill, are stationed in the five eastern provinces of the empire that they have just captured.
Bai Feng, who did not know much about the distribution of orcs, put forward a plan to lead the army to break through for the first time when discussing the military situation with the subordinate generals of the battle cluster, and the militant generals of the system such as Hans and Assassis rushed to seize the vanguard position on the spot.
The two army commanders, Totila and Giscar, who were not close to Bai Feng, still maintained their usual silence, but the two generals, López and Ranocchia, had some objections to Bai Feng's plan to take the initiative to break through.
"General López, General Ranocchia, I know that you are not very optimistic about the plan to break out, and I also understand that the battle cluster is too weak compared to the orc army outside the city, but what we need to do is to break out, not defeat the orc army outside the city. ”
"General, if we don't defeat the 300,000 orc army outside the city, how can we break through?"
"Borg, you only see the 300,000 troops outside the city, but you don't see them scattered throughout the perimeter of our fortress, and our breakthrough only needs to defeat the orc warriors who intercept us, and we don't need to be the enemy of the entire 300,000 orc army at all. ”
"General, General Borg's opinion is not comprehensive, but it is not unreasonable, once the army of our battle cluster kills out of the fortress, it will inevitably attract the attention of all the orc armies, and at least 200,000 orc armies will become an obstacle to us at that time. ”
As soon as López's words fell, Ranocchia said, "Moreover, even if we successfully break through the encirclement of this 300,000 orc army, who knows how many werewolf cavalry are waiting for an opportunity on the periphery?"
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with the werewolf cavalry, as long as the number of werewolf cavalry does not exceed 50,000, I can guarantee that they will not return! Therefore, we are only facing an army of 300,000 orcs outside the fortress!"
"General, you have a way to deal with the werewolf cavalry, then there is still hope for our breakthrough plan, with the combat strength of our 80,000 army, under the surprise of the orc army, it may not be impossible to break through the encirclement of the orc army!"
Ranocchia's affirmative answer represented the support of the city defense faction in the battle cluster for Bai Feng's breakout plan, and the system general faction outside the city defense army faction was needless to say, so Bai Feng's breakthrough plan was approved within the battle cluster.
