Chapter Eighty-Seven: The First Real War with the Orcs
"Caritero, those crumbs are ready!" In the siege camp outside the city walls, a reddish-brown orc lifted the curtain of the tent and spoke to the orc commander who was looking at the map. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Raising his head, Calitero stared at the orc in front of him with his one eye, and it was only when the orc was a little uneasy that he spoke, "Do you need me to say it again, Mirol!" ”
There was endless anger in his voice, and Mirol's eyes narrowed, as if he was unhappy with his accusations.
"I don't understand, it's just a handful of humans." Mi Luo said nonchalantly, in such a remote area, he only sent a few ogre servants at the beginning, intending to integrate some servant armies and occupy them, and the main focus of the legion was still on the northern continent.
"A handful of humans!" Angrily, Calitro grabbed Mirol by the collar and lifted him up to him, shouting angrily, "What would the Great Chief think if he found out that there was an enemy gathering ground behind his supply camp!" Well? ”
The enraged orc leader didn't even notice that the steel claws mounted on his hand had sliced through his companion's neck.
After a while, seeing Mirol's frightened look, Calitro sighed in frustration, he put down the orc in his hand, and called in a muffled whisper: "Mirol, my brother." ”
Seeing his younger brother looking at him with trepidation, he continued: "It seems that we have the upper hand, the Red Dragon has razed the border of Quill Salas, the dwarves are trapped in Ironforge Fortress, the entire Kazmodan has successfully been in our hands, and the fighting humans on the sea have been suppressed to the extreme. ”
"But!" Facing his triumphant brother, Caritro accentuated: "A creature called an elf has joined the human race!" This race seems to have a large number of spellcasters, as well as powerful archers who are recruited by the human navy! ”
His eyes were a little hollow, but his words still didn't stop: "This is the most powerful archer I've ever seen, she killed a red dragon with just one arrow!" ”
"How is this possible!" Mirol exclaimed, "The hunters of the Moknassa can't do that either!" ”
"Yes, their strength upsets the entire legion, and the good news is that it seems that they don't have a large population." "But something worse happened! There are no more warriors on the Dark Gate who want to join the Horde! ”
"But we have the upper hand in strength and numbers." Still unwilling to believe that the situation was collapsing, Mirol pondered any possibility that could contradict his brother: "When the city of those dwarves is breached, there will be a large number of warriors to the front, and the humans will not be able to resist the blades of the Legion!" No way! ”
"Alas!" Sighing heavily, he couldn't bear to break his brother's illusions, and he wasn't angry at his brother's behavior, because most of the legions now had such thoughts.
But how long will it be before the Horde captures that fortress? One month? Two months? Or longer?
"Alright, go and let those miscellaneous attack, let the warriors of the tribe retreat, they shouldn't be consumed in the hands of a group of refugees!" With a gentle hammer on his brother's chest, Caridero urged.
Even if he had just returned from the front line, he found that a group of human beings had gathered in the rear of his house, but in addition to his anger, he did not think that this group of refugees who did not even have a king would pose a threat to the orc army, and now destroying them was just for fear that the big chief would blame.
And this group of humans has been able to live for so long, which means that they have a lot of food and materials, maybe the task of collecting materials assigned by the big chief this time can be completed?
---------------------------
"Shoot!" Caesar, the commander of the Marksman Legion, roared loudly as he dragged up one of his men who had discarded his heavy crossbow and was hiding behind cover: "Fool! What are you doing! Pick up your heavy crossbow shot! Otherwise, I'll leave you on the walls and feed to the orcs!" ”
There are not many orc throwers, and under the attack of more than a thousand archers who are not afraid of life and death, they have successfully forced these orcs out of range, and now the only threat is the catapult.
These siege machines, which are more powerful than throwing weapons, seem to have their eyes fixed on the archers as soon as they climb the wall, and soldiers are constantly being hit by huge stones, screaming and falling down the wall or dying directly.
Pushing the two archers away brutally, ignoring the angry eyes of the archers who were pushed away, he looked at the bunker for a while, and found that the catapult was not very far from the city wall, and Alux jumped down in the stunned eyes of the shooters.
"Knock-" The soft ground buried half of his calf, and after pulling it out easily, Arux moved his hands and feet, reached out and took off the greatsword on his back, and quickly rushed towards the catapult camp.
"Ahh Seeing that there were humans jumping off the city wall without knowing whether they were alive or dead, and launched a charge, among the orcs who had just received the order to retreat, they immediately rushed out and roared
Swinging his weapon at Arux.
"Poof-" Alux didn't care about these two at all, the orc warrior who looked very powerful to ordinary humans kept moving, allowing the opponent's weapon to hit his armor, and then was bounced away, and with a flick of the giant sword in his hand, he cut off both of them at the waist!
"Die, bastards!" The Superior Swordsman, who was a head taller than the average orc, grinned like a wolf entering a flock, and before many orcs could react, he rushed out of the crowd full of minced meat.
Suddenly, his footsteps stopped, and he raised the giant sword in his hand with one hand, and at the same time, a crisp sound of weapons clashing sounded on his right side.
Then, the outstanding swordsman quickly turned to the left side, stretched out his left hand behind him, and an orc with brownish red skin and a hideous single-edged sword in his hand was choked by him, and the orc who was lifted in the air dropped his weapon, trying to tear the enemy's hand away in pain.
Without any hesitation, the big hand with the ironclad gloves tightened inward in an instant, and with a crisp click, the orc's neck had been twisted off.
Discarding the lifeless orcs in his hands, Alux looked around, and at some point, the surrounding orcs had taken several steps back and were looking at him with frightened eyes.
Glancing in disgust at the minced flesh stuck to the barbs of the armor, Arux sighed, he had already thought that his wife would be nagging for a while while she was cleaning the armor.
He hadn't thought at all about how powerful the orc he had just killed was in his race, the warrior they called the Sword Master!
After only a moment of distress, Arux strode towards the catapult camp, which was not far from the catapult camp.
"The commander has an order! Shooter back off! Spearmen and sword and shield soldiers advance and prepare for hand-to-hand combat! Prepare for hand-to-hand combat! ”
After receiving the latest orders, the heralds immediately scattered and loudly conveyed the commander's orders.
The archer regiment, which received the order to retreat, did not hesitate to turn around and ran down the city wall, under the attack of the enemy's catapults, although the casualties were not large, but the pressure was very great.
"Arux is so powerful!"
Standing on the city wall, Xiao Yi was tightly blocked by a whole team of legion guards, and the bright yellow Hercules shield was erected on the bunker as a second line of safety. He watched the battle of Arux from beginning to end, and no orc could stand in his way!
He fought with the orcs like Sherif and the guards were facing the gnolls, almost one move at a time! Sometimes that huge sword can kill even four or five enemies in a single sword.
"The enemy is coming! I don't think Lord Lords should stand in such a dangerous place! Isabelle, who had been watching coldly, took out the long sword in his hand and said to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi looked at this lady who had lost her gorgeous dress, she put on silver slim armor, and perfectly transformed from a pampered lady to a predator.
At this time, Xiao Yi remembered that it seemed that in addition to charm and internal affairs, Isabel was also a powerful knight and light mage!
Untying the dragon god blessing chain hammer hanging from his waist, Xiao Yi put on his helmet, took the lion shield handed over by the guard, and said, "I can't always govern my kingdom under your protection, honorable lady!" ”
Because of the helmet, Xiao Yi's voice was a little dull, but Isabel still heard the firmness in his tone.
Nodding, Ms. Isabelle, who had proved that she was not afraid of the power of her lord during the Lordaeron incident, seemed to have been persuaded by her lord so easily, maybe she also wanted her lord to experience some war?
The Hercules shield was removed, as Arux had successfully completed his task, the stone-throwing had stopped, and from the city walls it could be seen that in the left rear of the enemy camp was a mess, and Arux's greatsword burned with blazing holy flames, tirelessly slashing the enemy.
And the enemy's attack at the city walls did not stop because of this......
"Kill! Kill these weak junks! ”
The small space of the city wall was crowded with human warriors at this time, and when the first siege staircase reached the top of the city, it was a sign that the enemy would soon ascend the wall.
The first enemy to climb the castle was a creature about 1.2 meters tall, hunched over, with a rat's head and a half-cut candle on its head.
Weaker than the gnolls, they could not instill fear the soldiers, and the spearmen and sword and shield men gave up pushing to the more and more siege ladders, roaring at the enemies who had climbed the walls with their weapons.
After seeing a long group of spearmen, led by a guard, clear a piece of kobolds occupying the city, Sharif hurriedly sent a small group of sword and shield soldiers to re-plug the gap.
