Chapter 123: The Northern Expedition (2)

In fact, human magicians are very low-key in the Hokuriku, and they appear to be very cautious when they make one or two shots and outcrops.

Even when the Sears Aeolus Church collapsed, only a few people such as Ferrante knew about the magician, and there was nothing to investigate after so many years.

The only two are Winston and Dunn who are more famous, but one is because of glass and gunpowder, and the other is because of the assistance of Ferranche.

And magic itself did not set off any waves in the Hokuriku, mainly compared to the entire human world, the number of the three batches of graduates of the Academy of Magic was really small.

But Nanlu is different, the orc mage who created the black magic is still locked up in the forbidden demon chamber in Scarborough, and it is his destructive influence that has made the mage begin to enter the general orc cognition.

For orcs, their abilities mainly rely on themselves, and most of the effects of various strange abilities and shamanic spells are to strengthen themselves.

In terms of individual strength alone, an orc is far stronger than a human soldier.

Therefore, the power of the magician, which does not rely on his own body and can also have powerful destructive power, naturally attracted the attention of the orc higher-ups, especially Brandy.

"When you get here, the temperature will rise quickly, and in another month and a half, the army will be able to approach the coastline. ”

The generals of the orc advance army sat in their tents, listening to an old shaman who was familiar with the geography analyze the marching route.

The curtain was lifted, and a crow rested on his shoulder, and Brandy, wrapped in animal skins, walked in.

"Commander!"

"Commander!"

The generals rose one after another, and during this time, Brandi's knowledge and unique insight into large-scale warfare completely conquered these orc generals, breaking their alternative vision of Brandi's only conspiracy and calculation.

Brandi pressed his hand, leaned his cane into the chair, and removed the hood and the mask on his face.

"Sit down, I heard it outside, it takes a month and a half to get close to the coastline, and it will take at least two and a half months for the grain and grass and the legion to arrive. ”

"We can be stationed by the sea for a month, waiting for supplies and subsequent reinforcements. A werewolf general said.

"You're too careful, we have 400,000 elite orcs, and we can rest on the coastline for a week, and then we can go straight to the landing bridge. ”

The werewolf general sneered, "Are the bears all like you? ”

"What do you mean?!"

"Don't make any noise!" Brandi snorted, his staff hammering the ground, "It's not careful, one week, the army will set up camp when it reaches a place a week away from the coastline, send all the scout teams to explore, and a week later the army will block the coastline and wait for the arrival of the follow-up legions." ”

"Commander, this is too ...... We have 400,000 elites, braving the wind and snow to come here just to guard the coastline?"

"You think this is a trivial matter?" Brandi glanced at him, "How much is 400,000? There were more than 400,000 legions in one Kaiadir in the Northern Continent back then, not to mention the current Solan Empire. ”

"Commander. The old shaman stepped forward, "In addition to our advance army, how many more people from the follow-up army will come to the front line?"

As soon as these words came out, the generals also pricked up their ears, the orc races lived separately, although there was a trend of integration under Brandi's policy, but only the Council of the Thirteen Clans could know how many soldiers they sent.

Looking at the curious eyes of everyone in the tent, Brandi laughed without emotion: "Our goal is not only to attack the city, but also to drive straight along the landing bridge, 400,000 soldiers may be able to cross the land bridge, but it is still far from enough." ”

As he spoke, Brandi got up and walked to the edge of the map, stretched out his hand and nodded, "Once we capture Morse City, we will have to engage in large-scale multi-front battles with the human army in the mountains and plains, how can hundreds of thousands of tired divisions resist the reinforcements of the human coalition army?"

"So we have to wait, the follow-up orc legion will have a full 1.1 million elites to arrive in the north in three batches, after the first batch of supplies arrives, the advance army will begin to attack the city, and then garrison in the city and on the land bridge, waiting for the first batch of 400,000 reinforcements to arrive, and then ......"

Brandi's finger slammed into the map.

"Set foot on the Hokuriku!"

......

......

Morse City sits on a land bridge between the north and the south, and it is also the only human city on the land bridge, which has almost no inhabitants and is all human soldiers stationed there.

The specific location is close to Hokuriku, but the terrain on both sides of the city is extremely harsh and cannot be marched, and it is like a stone, blocking the road to Hokuriku.

If the orcs want to pass through the land bridge, they can only choose to capture this city, so to speak, whoever takes Morse City will lead the movement of the legions on the land bridge.

In the early morning of this day, the mist on the sea spread to the outside of the city again, and it stands to reason that such a long distance is impossible, but since the establishment of the Poseidon Church, there have been more and more similar strange things, and people have become accustomed to it, even in the city, there are still many soldiers who have the belief in Poseidon.

On the city wall, two guards who had just had breakfast and changed their guards were chatting, and generally speaking, the defenders who could be sent here were elite divisions.

But what are you kidding, it's true that from time to time there will be a team or two of orcs on the opposite side to harass you, but that is also a mutual teasing between the two sides.

Because most of the orcs live further south of the southern continent, hundreds of years have passed, and this kind of thing has long become a matter of talk.

The two guards were chatting happily, and the rest of the guards were also complaining a little because of the fog, and no one noticed that a boundless black shadow was gradually approaching here.

A quenched arrow cut through the fog and directly penetrated the neck of a chatting guard, and in the fog in the distance, a werewolf warrior put down his wooden bow and sneered: "Replace the poisoned arrow with an ordinary arrow, this is what humans are capable of?"

On the city wall, the guard, who was still smiling just now, watched his companion fall in astonishment, and was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and shouted:

"Enemy attack! Orc attack!"

The heavy sound of the horn resounded throughout Morse City, and all the soldiers stationed there were stunned before they entered the battle state one after another.

A middle-aged man in armor walked out of his room and came to the city wall with a frown, "Who blows the trumpet, is the highest level of the horn blowing at this time?"

"Commander, Commander, Enemy Attack, Orc Attack!" the guards trotted down the walls.

"Harassment again?"

"No...... Not a legion commander, there are a lot of them, many, many orcs!"

Hearing this, the legion commander chuckled in his heart and hurriedly came to the city wall.

At this time, the breeze blew away the mist, and the legion leader squinted into the distance, only to see that the army of orcs as dense as locusts was approaching Morse City step by step, and the number was overwhelming, and there was no end in sight.

"Damn, labor and management won't be so unlucky...... Someone is coming! The highest level of combat readiness! Notify the garrison outside the city to enter the city for reinforcements! Send someone to Hailan Province to report the news! Quick!"

With his shout, one by one heavily armed soldiers climbed to the top of the city, clutching the weapons in their hands, and boxes of fortification equipment that had been prepared for many years were constantly carried to the city.

The legion commander stood in place, still staring at the orc army in the distance.

On such a large scale, there were at least 100,000 orcs, compact formations and queues, shoes and hooves wrapped in strips of cloth......

They came prepared!

"Phew!" the legion commander spat out, "I thought I could be transferred here to rest after the battle, but I didn't expect it to start again, but the orcs ...... It's the first time I've seen it. ”

The steel sword was drawn from his waist, and a roar echoed through the city.

"Prepare for war! This is an orc, not a human, prepare for war!"

One of the werewolves under the city laughed contemptuously and shouted the same: "Charge, keep the formation, the wooden ladder is ready, the arrows are ready!"

On this ordinary day, on this day destined to go down in history, the peace between orcs and humans that had lasted for hundreds of years was once again broken.

And the initiator of this war, a mysterious human, is sitting in a tent in the back, constantly issuing orders one after another, directing the first attack of the orcs.
