Chapter 278: Reinforcements
The night was terrified for everyone.
Even the soldiers on the night vigil were arranged two or three times more than usual, for fear that the frost orcs would make some surprise attack at night.
Fortunately, the orc camp twenty miles away did not move, and there was no abnormality in the Doomsday Mountain in the distance.
The night was spent peacefully, but everyone's faces were more solemn.
Everyone knows that this kind of tranquility is less than one day at a time.
Every night is spent peacefully, which means that the final battle is close to one day.
The orcs are accumulating strength, and the next project must be a fatal blow that will destroy the withering and decaying.
As Shen Fei sent out his final call in the name of the regent, the people from the nearest town rushed to Owendale.
Shen Fei personally greeted these warriors who volunteered to defend their families and the country.
Among them were farmers with hoes, blacksmiths and craftsmen, and herders from the steppes.
"I thank you in advance for His Royal Highness the Little Prince."
The farmer shook his hand and said, "The regent is gracious. If Owen Dale can't stand it, the people in the villages and towns along the way will be the first to suffer. Keeping Owen Dale will protect my wife and children, so I have to come! ”
"We also brought the best horses from the pasture."
Shen Fei's face was overjoyed: "There is a shortage of good war horses on the front line, and this time it really solves the urgent need." ”
In a frontal battle of attack and defense, the final decisive battle must be on the plains.
Owendale was mainly defending the city all year round, so there was only a cavalry team of more than 100 people.
Now the herdsmen have brought good horses, which can form a cavalry force of 1,000 men, and in the battle of the plains, they will turn into a sharp spear and pierce the Frost Orc army formation, breaking their formation.
Subsequently, people from other villages came to help defend the city.
There were even sloppily dressed homeless men who hobbled all the way to Owendale, saying they wanted to make their last contribution to the country.
Shen Fei choked in his throat and ordered someone to arrange a place for these rebels to live, prepare sufficient food and good battle armor.
In addition to the common people, there were many nobles from towns who led gardeners, stewards, servants and private soldiers in their estates to join.
In just one morning, the number of Irvingdale's rebels had expanded from a few dozen to a thousand.
"As long as there is enough time, the number of rebels will increase." Ferdinand was relieved, but also poignant.
It should be the duty of the soldiers to defend their homeland and country, but now it is up to these militias and even civilians to go to war and defend the glory of the empire with their flesh and blood.
He felt that this was a soldier's dereliction of duty, but there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, with the continuous influx of rebels in Owendale, the atmosphere of the soldiers in the city was much better.
Everyone seemed to have captured the hope of victory.
Only a few high-level officials knew that the number was lackluster now, and there was no way to compete with the menacing orc army.
"How's the organization of our Modern Corps?" Shen Fei came to the top of the city wall and asked.
Ever since Ferdinand came to Owendale, his brow has been furrowed, and he has never stretched.
"The modern corps has been organized, but I am afraid that it will not be useful in a real war. After all, these things have extremely high requirements for the terrain, and this kind of mass destruction is easy to hurt their own people. ”
Ferdinand thought it through, and Shen Fei nodded.
The final battlefield must be outside Irvingdale, but when the hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides are displayed, there is almost no place for the modern corps.
The Human Empire has made rapid progress in science and technology in recent decades, and the modern corps has always been a major killer weapon for mankind.
Tanks, helicopters, and artillery are all the crystallization of science and technology, but heavy weapons such as tanks are inconvenient to come in handy on the battlefield.
Unless these heavy weapons can be placed at the rear of the battlefield, the front and rear flanking attacks can be most effective.
"At the current rate, it is estimated that there are about 5,000 rebels today."
"It's still a drop in the bucket! How's the magic circle of Mailer and Jordan going? Ferdinand asked.
In this situation, just like the battle forty years ago, everything can only be pinned on the joint circle of the two people, providing combat power to the Terran soldiers and consuming the blood orcs.
"I heard that the magic circle has been prepared, and when the time comes, I will directly control the mage tower to project the magic circle, but the two of them are still checking to avoid mistakes in the big war."
Ferdinand nodded again and again: "It's good to check a few more times, if something really goes wrong during the big war, no one can afford this responsibility." ”
As the two spoke, the gate of the orc camp twenty miles away suddenly opened slowly.
Ferdinand and Shen Fei looked over at the same time and saw that there were orc troops coming out of the frost orc camp.
Ferdinand reacted the quickest, blowing the battle horn around his waist, and the human soldiers at the head of the city immediately reacted, and Owendale's regular troops began to assemble.
In the blink of an eye, the city was already full of troops.
The faces of the people were solemn, and it was not a good thing for the orcs to go out of the camp.
At the same time, inside Mount Doom, the blood orcs were completely conceived, tore the rocks, and killed them from the inside of the Doomsday Volcano.
The whole body is red, and you can even see that there is no solidified magma on the body.
The orc soldiers of Mount Doom saw the most powerful warrior in their race, their eyes were full of fanaticism, and their roars were incessant.
The orcs on the front line have all come out of the barracks and opened the battle line.
The orcs of Doomsday Mountain also appeared hundreds of miles away, and the long dragon stretched endlessly, rushing towards the front line with great momentum.
Shen Fei saw the situation in front of him and couldn't help but say, "It's started." ”
This time it really began.
"The orc troops of Mount Doom are rushing to the front line, it will take three or four hours, and this is the final countdown."
Orc players are eager to take the plunge as they are given an epic quest – The Ultimate Battle.
In the quest description, all orc players know that Mount Doom has one of the most elite Blood Orcs of the Frost Orcs.
Players who rank in the top 100 in terms of kill points will be favored by Grand Karcist Zolak after the victory in the war, and enjoy the same bloodline promotion.
At this time, the orc players directly boiled.
Bloodline promotion is the term of NPCs in the game, and on the player's side, bloodline promotion means opening a hidden class!
Kill the first 100 to get a chance to unlock a hidden class.
Although NPCs have a lot of points, they are hard to kill with thick blood and high attacks. But human players are as brittle as toilet paper, and there is still a chance to enter the top 100 by killing a few more.
These orc players are now eager to engage right away, and a second late will delay them from opening the hidden class.
The countess also came to the city, looking at the dense orc soldiers twenty miles away, and couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Why don't we go out and defeat the orcs before the enemy's follow-up forces arrive?"
Ferdinand let out a long sigh and said, "We are now at a disadvantage in our forces, and we can only exert maximum lethality by relying on the defense of the city walls. If we rush out and the orc troops retreat instead of fighting, we will be in a difficult position. When we want to retreat again, the orcs will cover up again, and we can easily rush to the bottom of the city, or even break through the gates. ”
The countess was reluctant to say: "So we can only wait for the orcs to gather to the strongest form and passively defend?" ”
Ferdinand nodded, "Now, yes." ”
Shen Fei glanced at the soldiers in the city, and many of them were full of fear in their eyes, and they didn't even stand so together.
At a glance, it can be seen that these are the rebels with new equipment.
But everyone's footsteps did not move, like a pine and cypress that did not relax in the storm.
Rebels continued to join outside the city of Owendale, and when they learned that the orc army was already in place outside the city, they did not rest, did not take a sip of water, changed into armor and weapons, and directly joined the battle team.
There were no speeches, no generous speeches, and everyone who came here had only one conviction.
Shen Fei returned to the lodge, took out the [Aiken Memoirs], and used the Lich Life Box to get in touch with the Emperor of the Dead.
"The final battle has arrived."
The Emperor of the Undead only said one sentence: "You will see the army of the undead in the Immortal Forest at the most opportune time." ”
Since Aiken said so, it must have appeared at the most critical moment.
In addition, Shen Fei frowned slightly, and he didn't know if they could arrive on time......
The orc army has been lined up, and all kinds of siege equipment are ready.
The orcs Great Chieftain Eugene and Zolak were at the forefront of the camp.
Both of them had greed in their eyes.
As long as they conquer the Xiongguan in front of them, the fertile fields are waiting for them to occupy and conquer.
"There was no mistake this time, right?" High Chief Eugene asked.
A hideous smile appeared on Zorak's face, "The Glory Blood Orcs have appeared, so the Great Chief should think more about negotiating with the Apostles after entering the customs." If I remember correctly, the Apostles will arrive in the Lion Holy City tomorrow. ”
"Do you know that the war messenger sent to the Immortal Forest has not returned?"
Zorak laughed dryly: "Don't worry, Great Chief, everything is ready. ”
"When the blood orcs arrive, they will directly launch a general attack. I'm going to stand on the walls of Owendale and watch the sunrise tomorrow. ”
"I'm afraid the Great Chief won't be able to do so. With the current stubborn resistance of human beings, if it weren't for the complete destruction of Owen Dale, we would not have had a chance to enter the city at all. ”
Zorak understands that this is a life-and-death battle between humans and frost orcs.
In such a war of extermination, there is no such thing as surrender.
As long as there is still a human in the city, they will definitely resist desperately.
Under such a tragic situation, the idea of the Great Chief Eugene wanting to climb the walls of Irvingdale and wait for the sunrise the next day must not be completed.
"Hahaha, then I'll see tomorrow morning that everywhere the sun shines, it's my frost orc's new home!"
High Chief Eugene did not dislike Zolak's interruption, but agreed with him, and a new hope was born in his mind.
"The momentum cannot be lost, the humans inside the city walls must be trembling now, now is the time to show our momentum!"
The drums of war were beating, and the army of tens of thousands of orcs was still shouting.
A loud and neat shout reverberated for more than twenty miles, wafting over Owendell, creating a mood of tension and despair.
The people in the city couldn't see the outside scene, but when they heard the shouts of the orcs, they were already dispossessed, and began to ask if the orcs had called.
Just when everyone was waiting, suddenly everyone in Owendale felt a rumbling sound under their feet.
The dull sound was as if something was moving underground.
The faces of Ferdinand and Shen Fei, who were standing at the head of the city, changed at the same time, and the fat tiger immediately determined the direction from which the vibration came from.
"Over there!"
The location of the tremor was impressively within the city of Irvinedale.
Ferdinand reacted extremely quickly and immediately shouted: "Send troops to defend it immediately!" ”
Shen Fei jumped down from the city wall without saying a word, and when he was about to land, he used the [Traction Chain] to pull it into the distance.
Shen Fei was a little incredulous, he had already killed all the Broken Rock Giant Worms in the Nest in Doom Mountain, why did the enemy still have such a thing.
The troops in the city were in an uproar, and most of them immediately moved and killed the place where the mountain shook.
"It's a Rock Breaker!"
Many players who went to Doomsday Mountain with Shen Fei to steal information also felt the shock and immediately rushed forward, ready to face the battle as soon as possible.
Everyone in the city was like a great enemy, but they didn't expect the orcs to have this kind of black technology and kill them directly in the city.
What Shen Fei was most afraid of now was that behind the Rock Shattering Giant Worm was a team of blood orcs.
With the strong combat power of the blood orcs, if they appear in the city, they can definitely disturb Owen Dale's chickens and dogs.
So you have to hold on!
Shen Fei and Fat Tiger soon arrived at the scene as well.
The mountain roared and trembled, sand and gravel fell from the mountain, and even huge stones could not bear the weight and fell.
The human forces were quickly mobilized, and the people guarding outside were all tense on a string, and the fear in their eyes was unobstructed.
Click!
Cracks appeared in the mountain, spreading all the way to the feet of the people.
Shen Fei felt as if the ground was boiling, and the hard stone pavement instantly became as soft as cotton and as rippling as the surface of the water.
"Get out of the way!"
With Shen Fei's shout, everyone retreated.
At the same time, a huge explosion sounded, and a large hole was blown out of the entire mountain.
The expected giant worm of crushed rock did not appear, but poked out the drill bit of a huge exploration machine.
The steel behemoth rushed straight into Owendale's square, and even bulldozed the fountain in the center of the square and Lucian's statue before stopping.
Shen Fei heard the sound of the soldiers beside him swallowing saliva.
This kind of steel beast, the sword can't hurt it at all, who can stop it!
The human players also looked at each other with a bewildered expression, what about the Rock Broken Giant Worm and the Blood Orc? How is it just a big guy with a drilling rig?
What's going on?
We don't know, and we don't dare to ask.
Laugh at!
Suddenly, the door to the chassis behind the rig opened, and a thick burst of steam was discharged.
There was a ladder sticking out of it all the way to the ground.
The archers all drew their bows, and beads of sweat on their foreheads gradually snaked from their foreheads to their cheeks and chins.
"Haha, I can't imagine it, the dwarves are coming!"
The first dwarf to jump out of the carriage was none other than the head of the Golden Axe family.
Shen Fei's brows gradually expanded when he saw the Golden Axe family's iconic golden hair and the short and sleek axe in the old master's hand.
The Golden Axe family master staggered a few steps after jumping down, then looked left and right, and finally saw Shen Fei in the crowd.
"It's really Shen Fei!"
Then the head of the Golden Axe family trotted all the way to Shen Fei and said, "Brother Shen, you still remember me, I am the son of the old Golden Axe, and when I recaptured Lonely Mountain before, I was only five years old at that time!" ”
More and more dwarves came out of the carriage behind the rig, all heavily armed.
The human soldiers collected their bows and arrows and weapons, and looked at each other, never expecting the dwarves to come to their aid.
"Shen Fei, it's really you!"
A thunderous roar.
Many dwarves moved out of the way, and Shen Fei followed the path where everyone got out of the way and saw a familiar person.
Red-haired, red-bearded, dressed in battle armor, the dwarven king Orn strides with a warhammer.
