"Woooooooooo......oo Woo woo woo ...... "There is an unforgettable sadness in the low horn of the giant bone horn unique to the Orc Empire, and this horn sound, which is different from the horn sound in the Imperial army, is the horn of the retreating orc army!"

As the horn of retreat sounded, the fierce orc warriors retreated, and occasionally some unlucky orc warriors who remained on the city walls were soon surrounded and strangled by the murderous Imperial soldiers.

The battle situation just now was obviously favorable to the orc army, so why did they choose to withdraw at a critical moment? Bai Feng, who had a strong view of the overall situation, did not think that with less than 30,000 soldiers of his own 40th Legion, he could withstand the frantic attack of the 80,000 or 90,000 orc army.

Although the soldiers of the 7th Wing suppressed the attack of nearly 10,000 orcs on the right flank wall, this did not mean that the other wings of the 40th Legion could also suppress the orc army attacking them; after all, the combat effectiveness of the 7th Wing far exceeded that of the other wings.

Regardless of the fact that the soldiers of the 7th Wing were better equipped than the others, in terms of only four Roman youth corps and three Cretan archers, it was a pillar force sufficient to play the role of a mainstay.

In the absence of external army support, according to Bai Feng's worst-case estimate, the orc army attacking Fortress No. 12 would only need to continue the onslaught for three hours, and the wings of the Fortieth Legion defending the fortress area would be in danger of collapsing at any time.

Once the first collapsed wing appeared, the chain reaction that might be produced in the follow-up was very amazing; Bai Feng didn't believe that the commander of the orc army couldn't see this, so why the orc army retreated became an inexplicable doubt in Bai Feng's heart.

"The orcs have retreated, we have won!" Looking at the retreating orc army, a squad leader of the fifth detachment cheered excitedly.

This joy of victory quickly spread among the soldiers who lived after the war, and countless soldiers chanting the slogan of "victory" released their inner cheers, and even Bai Feng's originally gloomy mood became cheerful.

Yes, no matter what kind of conspiracy the orc army had, at least the soldiers of the Seventh Wing won this hard-won first battle, and Bai Feng, who put aside the doubts in his heart, also showed a faint smile on his face.

"Long live the victory! Long live the co-captain!" the chaotic slogans shouted by the soldiers finally turned into a unified cheering slogan under the leadership of several captains, and Bai Feng, who shot the orcs like a god, was naturally worshiped by all the soldiers.

Before the cheers on the right flank wall were over, a herald sent by the commander of the Giscard corps came to Bai Feng's side: "Captain Bai Feng, the corps commander is holding an emergency meeting, and you need to rush to the headquarters immediately to participate. ”

"yes, I see. Bai Feng, who did not leave immediately, handed over all the aftermath affairs to the six captains including Bonella and Borg, and then took Bai Yi and Bai Er to the direction where the legion headquarters was located.

This time, Bai Feng was no longer the last Wing Captain to come to the headquarters, but he was the cleanest Wing Captain, and the other Wing Captains, including Kabul, were all covered in blood and looked exhausted.

After all the wing captains arrived, Captain Giskal, who was also haggard, said directly to the point: "Everyone knows about the army of the Orc Empire, their combat effectiveness is strong, and not being able to fight at night is their most fatal weakness. ”

"Now there is still about half an hour before nightfall, and the orc army has all retreated, and then you have half an hour to count the casualties of your respective wings, and then you settle the soldiers, and we will discuss tomorrow's countermeasures. ”

"No!" After answering the order in unison, Bai Feng and the other nine wing leaders left the headquarters together.

The wing captains who used to greet Bai Feng in the usual face no longer had the intention of gossiping anymore at this moment, and they all went straight back to their own wing, and Bai Feng, who was worried that the second battle group under Hans would suffer heavy casualties, came to the left flank of the fortress.

Compared with the fierce battle on the right flank wall, the battle on the left flank city wall was much more tragic; there were so many corpses of the enemy and our army that the corpses of the soldiers and soldiers of the enemy and our armies were scattered all over the city wall, and the scene of blood flowing like a river shocked Bai Feng, who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

Hans, who was commanding his soldiers to clean the city wall, was covered with wounds of all sizes, and the blood soaked in his armor could not tell whether it was the enemy's or his own.

Stepping on the slimy blood stains on the city wall, Bai Feng walked behind Hans and asked Hans, who was not aware of him, "Hans, how are the casualties of the soldiers of the second battle group?"

"General. Hearing the voice behind him, Hans hurriedly turned around and bowed to Bai Feng and reported: "Our army's five brigades and two reserve brigades, a total of 3,500 soldiers, 874 soldiers were killed in this battle, and almost all the other soldiers were wounded. ”

"With Hua Mu here, the wounded soldiers can recover their combat effectiveness early tomorrow morning, so you don't have to worry too much. Patting Hans's shoulder, who was frowning, Bai Feng pointed to the corpse of the fallen soldier and said, "Brothers who died in battle, take care of the burial, and we will take them home after the war." ”

"No!" Hans turned and continued to direct his soldiers to clear the blocked passage of the wall.

After Hua Mu arrived, Bai Feng left the left wing city wall and came to the right wing city wall; as soon as Bai Feng stepped on the right wing city wall, Borg, who was in charge of counting the casualties of each brigade, walked to Bai Feng's side and reported softly:

"General, a total of 3,470 officers and men of our army's six brigades took part in the battle, of which 637 were killed and 1,271 were wounded; ”

On the first day of the battle of the Seventh Wing, 1,511 soldiers were killed in the first battle, more than one-fifth of the total strength of the Seventh Wing.

In fact, of the more than 1,500 soldiers killed, only 47 were killed by four groups of Roman youths, and three teams of Cretan archers were unscathed.

If it weren't for the presence of the field doctor Hua Mu in the 7th Wing, at least half of those wounded soldiers would have been incapacitated, so it can be seen that the fully equipped 40th Legion was almost crippled by the fierce orc army in just one battle.

Before going to the corps headquarters, Bai Feng gave an order to General López, who was in charge of forming the reserve brigade, and asked him to immediately transfer 1,500 soldiers from the reserve brigade to him.

These 1,500 soldiers were used by Bai Feng to replenish the various brigades of the Seventh Wing, and as for the four groups of Roman youth troops who had lost 47 soldiers, they had to return to Rome to reorganize before they could resume their full strength, so they could only maintain the status quo for the time being.
