Killing captives and then dissecting them, if placed on Earth, would certainly be accused of cold-blooded, brutal, inhumane, and a crime that violates a series of war conventions.

But this is in the world of Telos. Wars between different races and faith camps have always been so cruel. So Chuck didn't find anything strange about Gordon's order, stabbed the orc captives to death with a clean sword, and then drained the blood from the corpse and placed it on the wooden platform.

After three hours of disgusting dissection, Gordon finally found what he was looking for.

On the inside of the orc's skull, there was a sarcoma the size of a kumquat, pulsating, living thing.

He had also found this kind of thing in the brain of the poisonous mist wyvern before.

Although the combat effectiveness of the hybrid creatures mixed with the blood of the abyss demons will be greatly improved, due to the influence of the chaotic energy in their bodies, these hybrid creatures have almost no reason, and it is impossible to obey orders like ordinary soldiers, and they need to use special methods to control them.

During the first night's fighting, Gordon captured a poisonous mist wyvern. He was in the head of the half-blood beast, and what appeared in the head of the orc warrior today.

Compared to their peers, the Poison Mist Wyvern, who has a more violent personality and lower intelligence, was able to attack the defenders of High Rock Castle from the air efficiently and obediently because someone controlled their actions.

Gordon was sure that the Poison Mist Wyvern and the berserk orc device were installed inside the floating fortress. These creatures. It is another powerful force that the Three Holy Baptists have mastered in this war, in addition to the floating fortress. It is also one of the bargaining chips to balance the orc warlord Ugru.

Tonight's ferocious orcs' feint attack on High Rock Castle. It is likely that it was to cooperate with the assassination of the Grand Duke by Black Tinton and the demonic Lord Azulu, in order to attract the attention of the guards of High Rock.

"So, how many of these berserk orcs are there?"

Gordon's mind was like a lightning bolt, and his thoughts suddenly cleared. He felt as if he had grasped a key point.

He threw down the dissected orc corpses and left the dungeon filled with gore and all sorts of strange smells. After some washing. Gordon took the five Chucks to the data room where all kinds of information were stored.

"You guys help me count all the information since the last orc invasion, including the total population of the tundra orcs, and the number of tribal annexation wars that have been born each year. And the sex ratio of orcs to men, the birth rate and mortality rate of orcs babies, and so on, all of them are found out for me! ”

Seeing the head of the Freeman family, he looked full of energy. Chuck and the others, who are retainers, dare not slack off. Immediately took action. They are middle and low-level officers in Ferreton, because they have to read military orders and understand maps, so they are somewhat educated, unlike many small nobles who have learned martial arts since childhood, and are determined to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions but do not know a single word, and they can help in paperwork.

I spent a day buried in a pile of old papers with various statistics and information. Gordon finally got the answer he wanted.

From the beginning of the war, he learned that the orc army actually numbered 100,000. I wondered how the harsh natural environment of the barren tundra could support such a large army?

Although the tundra orcs have always been all soldiers, except for the old, young, sick and disabled women in the tribe, as well as craftsmen, shamans, witch doctors and other special personnel who have mastered key technologies and cannot afford to lose, other men have to go to the battlefield, but with the carrying capacity of the barren tundra, the war warlord Ugru actually gathered an army of 100,000 people, and there is also the ultimate biological weapon of this demon one-eye, which is absolutely abnormal.

You must know that in the local war a few years ago when the empire lost the newly opened territory outside the Great Wall of Anduin, the tundra orcs poured out, and they only raised an army of more than 20,000 people. And after that, there were several wars of tribal annexation. Iron Claw didn't recuperate for long after unifying the whole of the tundra and earning the title of Warlord of War.

The tundra orcs are very different from their relatives the hill orcs who live in the south. Over the course of thousands of years, the Hill Orcs have been thoroughly integrated into civilized society. They have embraced the concepts of "family", "spouse", "state", etc., and live in countries such as Ferreton, which are not fundamentally different from human citizens.

But the tundra orcs are still insulated from the word "civilization". Their society is a tribal structure, there is no family concept, and women are the communal property of the entire tribe, no different from the reproductive machine. It is precisely because of this social structure that the fertility rate of the tundra orc group is staggering, and an adult female tundra orc can give birth since she is sexually mature, and spends half of her life in pregnancy and childbirth.

Unless you die of a difficult birth or are too old to become pregnant.

Let's not talk about how tragic the fate of these female orcs is, at least such a social structure can indeed increase the population quickly. Fortunately, due to the poor sanitary conditions and harsh natural environment, the infant mortality rate of the tundra orcs has remained high, coupled with the lack of food production, and the reproductive isolation of orcs from humans, elves, and dwarves and other factors have limited population growth, so the orcs are only facing an army of 100,000 today, not 200,000 or even 300,000.

Although the tundra orcs can both live and fight, from Ugru. Iron Claw has unified the orc tribe of the entire barren tundra so far, and in just a few years, it has actually gathered 100,000 troops to invade the south, which is obviously out of common sense.

Gordon analyzed various numbers, such as the ratio of tundra orcs soldiers to the total population, war attrition, infant survival rate, etc., and finally came to a conclusion: even if all kinds of favorable conditions are taken into account, and ugru. Ironpaw had been favored by the beast god and had not suffered any setbacks, and now his army had doubled or tripled at most compared to the war years ago.

In other words, if you break through the sky, the orc army facing Gaoyan City today is only about 50,000 to 70,000.

Where did so many soldiers come from, the result is obvious.

There may be very little else in the abyss. But the Abyssal Worm is inexhaustible. The Three Holy Baptists took the newborn orcs to the Abyss, and used the bio-modification technology of the demon Lord Azulu to create a rapidly forming army of Abyssal Orcs. It's definitely a very good thing.

"About a third of the enemy's formation are Abyssal Orcs. This kind of orc combat power is stronger than ordinary orcs, I'm afraid that Ugru and Hatinton are ready to send them all to the battlefield when they start a general attack, and give us a surprise. This must be done by informing the others as much as possible. ”

After hearing the news, Reinarin, the leader of the Redstone Legion, knew that there were more powerful fighters in the enemy army, so naturally he would not have a good reaction. The High Rock City Lord even had an anxious look on his face.

The Grand Duke was seriously injured and fell into a coma. There was no one at the top of the city, and now the enemy's combat strength was stronger than he had estimated. With so much bad news mixed in, no one could laugh at it.

But Gordon doesn't think it's all bad news. Because this abyssal orc, although the combat power is more powerful than ordinary orcs. But they also have more fatal flaws. If you destroy the center of control of these Abyssal Orcs, the floating fortress of the Three Holy Baptists, they will be completely out of control and into chaos. Then High Rock will fully grasp the initiative, even before reinforcements arrive. Defeat the enemy once and for all.

For the arrangement of the city defense. Gordon, a mage who has no military power, naturally can't help anything, and now what he can do is to work with Yoland. Dumick, along with the rest of the Scepter Lord's mage regiment, continued with the plan to destroy the floating fortress.

He had a strong premonition that this would be the key to deciding the outcome of the entire war......

Three days passed quickly.

Gordon threw himself into working at Rob. The plan for destroying the floating fortress was drawn up by the Grand Duke of Antelo before he fell unconscious. Even when he had free time, he spent all his time preparing all kinds of supplies. Gordon knew a tough battle was about to begin, and he had to be well prepared.

On the evening of the third day. Another high-level military meeting of High Rock was held.

The reason why the meeting was held at this time was because of the last meeting. The estimated time for the restoration of the floating fortress is approaching soon. Although the orc army has not carried out a large-scale siege in the past two days, it has moved frequently, and all kinds of rudimentary siege equipment and military supplies have been transported to the military camp one after another, and the atmosphere is solemn. This shows that the enemy is indeed preparing for a general attack.

Others in the upper echelons, such as Earl Exxon, the commander of the Wintertalon Legion, had a different matter in mind.

"Tomorrow morning, it's War Overseer Shakara. During the time of the Nagabeard rebellion, the orc sent a number of secret messengers in the past two days, begging for our help. This is a rare opportunity to defeat the orcs in one fell swoop, and we should definitely not miss it! ”

No more Rob. Grand Duke Antello, who was originally quite in unison with the forces of all parties, immediately had a disagreement.

Where there is oppression, there will be resistance. Rob. During the Archduke Antelo's time, after the power struggle of the Noble Assembly, there was no other voice in the whole of the Northland, and all of them expressed their obedience to the Archduke. Therefore, when dealing with the invasion of orcs, the whole area has to be efficient and swift.

But now, the Grand Duke is unconscious and dying, so those who had forcibly suppressed their grievances because of fear of the Grand Duke, such as the Earl of Exxon, and the Drington knights beside him, who were looking at Gordon proudly, were as excited as slaves who had regained their freedom.

"Exxon, you're still talking about this? The Grand Duke was seriously injured and unconscious, and his shape was critical, of course, we should follow the plan that had been made before, hold on to Gaoyan Castle and wait for reinforcements to arrive, instead of taking the risk of attacking and pursuing an illusory and brilliant victory! "Count Renaline immediately opposed Count Exxon's tiyì.

"Grand Duke?" Earl Exxon sneered, "He's an excellent mage, but he doesn't know anything about military affairs. When he was still sitting in this room, he might have been able to veto my suggestion strongly, but now, he was lying on the bed with his breath dying, and he couldn't do anything. Now whatever my legion and I want to do, no one can stop it! (To be continued!)
