Chapter 124: The Northern Expedition (3)

At the head of Morse City, the orcs retreated again, scattered soldiers dragging their heavy bodies down the city, and more soldiers were carried down in limb fashion.

A new group of defenders was replaced, waiting for the next attack of the orcs.

"Brother, go down and rest well. ”

"Be careful, wait for me to come back and change the guard. ”

Similar words drifted in the wind in the passing by, they were already the elite of the war, and the discomfort in their hearts was long gone, and more of the once familiar faces had become cold corpses.

Morse City was built over the centuries by the combined forces of Kayadir and Honoris, and the defenders were originally split evenly between the two sides.

But at some point, the defenders of Honoris slowly retreated, and the city gradually became owned by Kaiadir.

And now Morse City belongs to the United Kingdom of the South of Ferranch, as for Honoris...... It's gone.

Now stationed in Morse is the Second Army of the United Kingdom of the South, an army that has followed Ferranch's great achievements, and its combat strength and quality naturally need not be said.

But the Second Legion has a total of 200,000 men, but here there are only 100,000 people, and the orcs are ...... That's exactly what the Legion Commander was anxious about.

The conference room was already in chaos, with people coming and going constantly conveying orders and feeding back information.

The corps commander propped his arms on the table, listening carefully to his subordinates' reports.

"Another round of orcs?"

"Yes, Legion Commander, there is not a single wounded among the orcs in this round of attack. ”

At this time, a staff member came out and said: "Morse has a total of 100,000 defenders, and only a little more than 90,000 can really go up to the city tower, and the other side has carried out twenty-seven attacks in three days, this momentum is too crazy, their casualties are much larger than ours, but there are still new soldiers to join the siege, regiment commander, the number of the other party is at least several times ours." ”

"Even if it's several times, we can hold on until reinforcements arrive. Someone next to him spoke.

The legion commander waved his hand: "The messenger should have arrived in Hailan Province by three days, but it will take a long time to wait for reinforcements, how many rolling stone fish oil and wooden stakes do we have?"

"Rolling stone fish oil is still sufficient, and the stakes are susceptible to moisture, so Morse never has too much on hand. ”

"Hmm...... The stakes and rolling stones were used first, and the fish oil was kept as much as possible, and we had to wait until the reinforcements arrived, but alas, it was a pity that we did not apply for some gunpowder with the speaker. ”

Peng: A huge explosion sounded, and everyone heard it.

"It's ...... again"

......

In Hailan Province, the consul picked at the note from the messenger, and couldn't believe the news for a while.

"Lord Consul, what's wrong?"

“...... Morse came with the news that the orcs ...... The siege was over. ”

"What?!"

After a moment of silence, the consul folded the note and handed it to his subordinates, "Immediately pass it to the speaker, and I will personally lead the troops to reinforce first." ”

"Yes!"

"By the way, a copy of the news was sent to the church. ”

......

Tria, the Hall of Light, Alena quietly listened to the cardinal's report in the mirror.

"Orcs?" Alena also showed a hint of difference.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the news from the Governor of the Province of Highland himself. ”

Alena took a deep breath, thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "The church cavalry in the Southern United Kingdom is temporarily deployed by you, temporarily assembled in Hailan Province, try to greet that side as much as possible, don't cause unnecessary misunderstandings, and wait for me to inform you of the rest." ”

"Yes, His Majesty. ”

After turning off the light mirror, Alena kept pacing in the main hall, and then stretched out her hand to summon a knight and ordered, "Call the head of the paladin to see me, now, now." ”

......

Solan Empire, in the main hall of the royal palace, Ferrante closed the light mirror and sat calmly on the throne, around the round table, twelve knights were waiting for his orders.

“...... The 3rd and 4th Corps began to prepare, and three days later set off. ”

"Yes, Boss!"

Just when the parties received the news and began to make arrangements, a fierce quarrel broke out in the orc camp and the military tent.

A deer general was questioning Brandy's approach, "Commander, you're sending my people to death, we're natural marksmen, not reckless men who climb walls!"

These words should have caused rebuttals from the other orc generals, but in the past three days, Brandi's completely lifeless behavior did make them feel a little angry and puzzled.

With the knowledge of this commander, he should not make such a low-level mistake, saying that he is a siege, and he really goes to pile up human lives.

Well, even if you take human lives, but more than once the tiger and the lion man have already climbed the city, but they have received the news of retreat, what kind of child's play is this?

Everyone had a calm face, waiting for Brandy's explanation.

Brandy, however, walked out of the tent with a wooden staff, and the attack failed again, and the orcs sounded the horn of retreat.

The generals followed, trying to see what he was going to do.

Soon after, countless wounded soldiers were carried down, and immediately tribal shamans boiled potions and performed mantra rituals to heal the wounded soldiers.

Orcs have rough skin and thick flesh, and rarely have broken hands and feet, and most of them died because they were hit by the vital point.

Looking at the wounded soldiers coming and going, Brandi said without looking back: "The humans thought that our casualties were heavy, but in fact they were less than they estimated. ”

The deer general glared: "How much less can it be? 10,000 people attacked the city at a time, and more than half of the worst casualties were inflicted, even if we could recover from our injuries, there were not a few of our dead clansmen." ”

Brandi shook his head, pointed at the wounded soldiers, and said: "Although Morse City is on a land bridge, it will still be affected by the sea, so there are many rolling stones and fish oil in the city, but there are not too many wooden stakes and bows and arrows, not to mention that hundreds of years have passed since the last war, and they are far less vigilant than they were at the beginning. ”

"You see, most of the wounded soldiers now have skin wounds, few arrow wounds, few burns, and they don't have many bows and arrows, but the fish oil is still being used for the last time, trying to drag it until the reinforcements arrive. ”

The generals looked at each other, "So what now?"

"Wait for dark, and then launch another round, this time the elephant people take the lead, they don't have many bows and arrows, and the butterfly people don't have to hide behind. ”

"Commander, you want to use fish oil? But we don't have much fish oil. ”

The corners of Brandy's mouth curled: "One little is enough." ”

Brandi then returned to the tent alone, not letting anyone in.

A short time later, a young nezumi stooped in, dressed in a black robe and embroidered with a mysterious one-eyed neckline.

"Your Excellency. ”

Brandi bowed, "Is your so-called potion ready?"

"Don't worry, Lord Commander, except for a small amount of fish oil, most of the jars used by the butterfly people tonight have been replaced with potions. ”

"How far can the effect go, I want Morse City, not a dead land. ”

The nezumi smiled: "The potion evaporates, condenses and disperses, and dies when touched, the potion can last for three days, and after three days, the medicinal power disappears, and the orc army can naturally take down Morse without spending a single soldier." ”
