Chapter 334: Night Attack

Titan World is a cold weapon and magic, alchemy as the main way of fighting. ,

Generally speaking, an army can be divided into light infantry and hoplite; pikemen, archers; Light cavalry, heavy cavalry...... Among the many arms, except for the mage, even the cavalry unit has the highest salary, which is incomparable to other arms.

Although the coldest season has passed, there is still a hint of coolness in the morning breeze, the purple sun hangs high in the eastern sky, and the morning dew on the grass tips turns into a trace of water vapor, diffusing in the air.

Directly in front of the defenders was the orc army. Standing at the front were the lizardman archers, and behind the archers were a large group of rhino knights, the irascible rhinoceros snorting and gasping from time to time, and their huge hooves kept scraping the ground, stirring up clouds of dust. Behind the Rhino Knight, there were two wolf cavalry phalanxes. It must be admitted that although it is only a light cavalry, its deterrent power is no less than that of the rhinoceros knights, because the cavalry of the wolf clan, their mounts are all real war wolves, and they are inherently more terrifying than ordinary war horses.

Behind them were a dozen infantry phalanxes, and behind them, thousands of auxiliaries were setting up barracks at a rapid pace, and a steady stream of supplies was being transported into the camp.

Compared to the strength of the orc army, the humans of Lancaste were much weaker, with archers hiding behind the battlements and only a few officers standing on the towers.

"Why aren't those guys attacking the city yet?" Bi Lin. Hegel asked curiously.

"On the one hand, they are a deterrent, and on the other hand, they are also trying to build a camp. Look at it. They will soon send someone to surrender. "Sicconi. Sheldon said.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a wolf cavalry to break away from the main formation, rush to the city and shout: "The humans in the city, who is the supreme commander of this city?" ”

"I'm Count Bell, the supreme commander of the city, what's the matter?" Hathaway raised her voice.

"On the orders of Marshal Reddis, if you can lay down your arms and surrender voluntarily, you can allow your officers to keep their personal belongings and avoid the misfortune of slaughtering the city!"

"Go back and sue sΓΉ that idiot. I don't care about you! ”

Hathaway didn't look like an aristocrat at all. Not only were the wolf cavalry under the city stunned, but the people beside her were also stunned and looked at her with strange eyes.

"When you meet civilized people, of course, you should treat them with courtesy; Meet the savage. I can't understand politeness with them. Hathaway said indifferently.

"Humph!"

The wolf cavalry under the city was panting with anger. I can't rush to the city. He glared at Hathaway angrily. Le turned his mount and returned to his home to report.

The fence outside the city had been built, and the orc army did not attack, and the army retreated in an orderly manner. And the human troops in the city can only watch the other party slowly enter the camp.

"It's infuriating!"

Bi Lin. Hegel slapped his palm on the battlements, very depressed.

"It's not a big deal, no matter how powerful their cavalry is, they can't attack the city, just with those rifles, it's not that easy." Jafa. Troun said.

"It's impossible for those orcs to attack the city today, everyone stay vigilant, it's time to rest well." Hathaway commanded, and turned back to the City Lord's Mansion.

Speaking of rest, of course, it is impossible to really rest, but officers and soldiers can take turns to go to the city, and they don't all need to wait in the city. The officials of the town hall organized the evacuation of the residents near the city walls to the city and prepare for the supply of supplies.

Battles can happen at any time when they don't expect them.

Night gradually covered Lanchees, and the city was filled with fires both inside and outside.

In the City Lord's Mansion, there are many people, and Hathaway has not rested.

Bi Lin. Hegel hurried to the front yard and saw Japha. Troon and his special forces stood there fully armed, not only surprised: "Troon, you guys...... Preparing for a night attack?! ”

Jafa. Troon tightened the belt around his waist and said with a very confident expression: "Night is a good time to fight, those orcs are arrogant, let them have a better memory tonight, this is the style of our lord, right?" ”

He nodded to Hathaway, who was standing on the steps.

Hathaway showed a faint smile on her face: "Counteract with the positive, disturb with the surprise attack, and use the way of the soldier lies in the strange and the positive." ”

Bi Lin. Hegel asked, "When will the special forces act?" ”

"1 a.m."

Hathaway said: "At this time, most of the orc soldiers are already dead, and the sentinels are also the most tired, and it is the best time to attack at night. ”

The special combat team went out this time with a special piece of equipment called the 'Night Shadow Cloak'. This cloak is not an alchemical product, but it has some potions applied. First of all, this cloak can affect the divergence of smells, and the surface coating can absorb light and heat, have a certain effect of resisting magic detection, and can blend well with the night environment. So when Bilin. When Hegel offered to act together, Hathaway immediately refused.

"However, if you go out of the city, the orc sentries will probably see it, and it will be difficult to have a sneak attack effect at that time." Bi Lin. Hegel reminded with some concern.

"It doesn't matter, there is a water gate that leads directly to the moat under the wall in the northwest corner of the city, which is very secret, and it will be difficult for us to get out of the moat at that time, unless the orcs are on targeted."

Jafa. Troon continued: "When the battle begins, whatever happens outside the city, you don't care, just hold out. ”

Hathaway nodded: "That's right, the enemy is strong, even if the night attack is successful, they will not give in lightly, so when you retreat, you must follow the predetermined plan, and you must not be greedy for merit."

"Yes, my lord!" Jafa. Troon agreed, saluted Hathaway, and led the special forces out of the house.

Hathaway vs. Birling. Hegel smiled: "You see the special combat team going out this time, what will be the result?" ”

Bi Lin. Hegel did not hesitate to say: "The orc army is far superior to the city defense army in terms of quantity and quality of soldiers. In this case, with the usual arrogance of the orcs, they probably didn't expect that we would carry out a night attack, and now it will be up to them to see how much they can achieve. ”

Hathaway smiled faintly and said, "Let's go, let's sit at the head of the city tonight and watch the fireworks." ”

Ling Bilin. What Hegel did not expect was that the commander of the city defense army and other officers also came to the city, and it seems that they also got the news and came to observe the results of the night attack.

A lot of torches were lit on the top of the city, and the photos of the city were brightened, which was also Hathaway's request, mainly to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the defenders' carelessness to touch under the city walls and steal the city.

Sicconi. Sheldon asked, "When is Captain Troon going to do it?" ”

"The second half of the night."

Hathaway said, "You might as well talk and wait, otherwise it will be boring." ”

……

Time was lost between the words of everyone, and in the blink of an eye, the night became more and more intense, and the light of the blue moon gradually dimmed, and it was already the second half of the night.

At about 1 o'clock in the morning, a series of explosions suddenly sounded in the orc barracks, and then the fire rose into the sky, and bursts of magic fluctuations came from the direction of the camp gate, obviously the special combat team members began to use those magic scrolls after using explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, and judging from the direction where those fireheads were ignited, the special combat team should have carried out infiltration attacks from different directions.

The sounds of shouting, explosions, and commotion came from far away from the direction of the orc barracks, and the orc army's originally quietly burning bonfires became agitated, and human figures could be seen shuttling back and forth in the firelight, accompanied by the sound of blades intersecting, shouting loudly, and the howling of wolves.

Hathaway held up her binoculars and looked into the distance, while the others leaned against the battlements and looked in the direction of the fire, and while it was not clear what was going on, the results of the night attack should have been quite satisfactory judging by the fire and the confusion of the enemy forces.

Hathaway has extremely high requirements for special combat personnel, not only to have a high level of fighting spirit, but also to have a proper foundation in magic, and the least can also be able to use magic scrolls or magic gems, and Hathaway is not stingy in both aspects.

So, with the support of Hathaway at all costs, the special combat team is not only equipped with a large number of explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, but the magic scrolls are even more varied, but similar to tonight's operation, it is mainly based on fire attacks, so the magic scrolls carried are also mainly fire-based.

Seeing that the enemy camp had begun to show signs of chaos, Hathaway ordered the city defense army to also create a large number of movements, so that the orcs mistakenly thought that the army in the city was waiting for an opportunity to attack, and relieve the pressure on the special operations team.

In any case, the chaos of the orc camp brought great encouragement to the soldiers of the city defense on the city walls, and those orcs were no longer invincible in their eyes, which was also the effect that Hathaway needed.

Jafa. Troon's special forces team returned to the city near dawn, and everyone was tired and equally excited.

"This fire has been burned clean for them, and the siege equipment, grain and grass of the orc army, as well as those rhinoceros and war wolves, have been specially taken care of, I believe that the orc commander will not be able to sleep tonight." Jafa. Troon excitedly reported the results to Hathaway.

"How's the casualty?" Hathaway asked with concern.

This team was cultivated by her own people, and any injuries that seemed trivial to outsiders would be unbearable for her.

"A total of thirteen members of the team were wounded, and there were no casualties. All of the wounded were wounded by stray arrows during the retreat. "Jayfar. Troon replied.

"Well, you go down and rest first."

Hathaway nodded, the result was still within her tolerance. (To be continued......)
