Chapter 110: Retreat
The rain of arrows rains down continuously, and it seems to be very powerful, but the actual lethality is quite limited. However, Lin Bing's eyesight is not to be said, and his command at the time of battle is also remarkable, he actually has the courage to let go of the enemy's powerful vanguard troops, and let these powerful pig-headed and minotaurs go to the city, but instead concentrates the long-range strength to attack the weak defense of the cat and snake people, here the defense of the snake people is weak is debatable......
These snake people have a human upper body and a long snake tail on the lower body, just like Nuwa in classical Chinese mythology. Because of the existence of this long tail, they have no legs, and can only rely on the long tail to twist and move forward like a snake, but the thick snake scales on the lower body, the defense is not low, and the knife and axe may not be able to stop it, but the bow and arrow are indeed difficult to bring fatality. We're only halfway there, don't forget that they also have a humanoid upper body, because the tail is different from human legs after all, it has a strong bone support, so although they can indeed move freely on land, they can be like a fish in water in the water, and they can climb the city wall like a snake, but the most fatal weakness is that this long tail cannot support the weight of the upper body too heavy. This restricts the defense of the snake people's troops, and the upper body, which may be most frequently damaged, is unlucky to be unable to equip heavy armor, so they generally only wear the most rudimentary leather armor, and some poor ones are even bare......
Such a characteristic caused this group of climbers to be seriously injured under the baptism of this round of arrow rain!
At this time, the orc captain had to admire the wisdom of the opposing commander. The other party definitely consciously let himself underestimate the enemy, and there were only less than 10,000 recruits on the city wall, inducing him to make the judgment of attacking the city immediately. Then, in the process of impact, they sent hidden archers to attack their own weak forces with a strong purpose. You must know that although the pig-headed people or even the bull-headed people in the front row have a large amount of strength, they lack siege equipment, and it is actually extremely difficult to break through the thick walls of the other party. Only the cat and snake people who follow in the back row have the ability to attack directly.
With their strong climbing and jumping abilities, the former cat-people can use the tall troops in the front row to jump directly high, climb the city wall, and then turn into the city to attack the city; Among them, the best ones can even break through directly into the defending forces of the city, which is the first choice of the siege troops.
The latter snake people naturally don't have such a good jump, but they also have a long tail when they lose, but they also have a long tail when they become them. They have the ability to snake on vertical planes, and can cruise directly to the city. Of course, there are great limitations to it, one is that the speed is not very fast, and the second is that it completely exposes its weak upper body to the enemy, so they need cover.
But in general, the orcs who did not have siege equipment could count on these two types of troops to rush in and open the gates for them. It really depends on these internal fighting troops to stack Arhats to go to the city...... The captain thought about it and sweated a little.
He ordered the whole army to retreat!
The orcs did not hesitate at all, and retreated like a tide! On the way back, the minotaur kindly picked up some wounded people, and then put them on the back of the ox, which can not only do good deeds with his hands, but also use others as shields...... Who says these guys are honest?
The pig-headed people were also forced to retreat at the back of the arc, and they needed to block the arrows, which made these muscular men with underdeveloped minds very angry!
The forest soldiers at the head of the city saw that the other party was retreating, and hurriedly ordered everyone to use inferior wooden arrows to shoot backwards to complete the extended shooting of the enemy. Anyway, before he came to defend the city, he was already very prescient, and prepared a large number of inferior bows and arrows that were urgently prepared, which would not be in vain...... Most of the purpose of this round of indiscriminate firing was not to kill or injure the enemy, but to respond to the enemy, to create more wounded, and to demoralize the enemy.
Obviously, his goal was completely achieved, and many enemies were slightly injured by arrows, although they did not penetrate deeply, but whoever had an inferior arrow hanging on his body would definitely not be in a better mood? Who knows if this rusty arrow will infect you with tetanus? Oh, my God! There is also a wooden arrow, and the arrow is a pure iron nail! Sister's!
The morale of this force was temporarily low. It was in stark contrast to the cheers of the crowd on the city walls. The Minister of War ordered the troops to rest in place and leave all the wounded in civilian care, so as to minimize non-combat attrition...... There is no way around it, and there is no supporting medical team yet. A large number of people spontaneously climbed the city wall, brought water and simple food, and then carried or used simple stretchers to carry the wounded defenders off the wall, most of whom were local recruits, but they were treated as heroes for their brave fighting style. In fact, there are very few dead people in the human defense this time, and the orcs who are besieging the city have no real threat, but only a small number of uplifters, who are unlucky enough to be killed by centaur shooters!
The post-war affairs in the city were in full swing, and under the command of the forest soldiers, they were carried out in an orderly manner...... In a short time, the city regained its original strongest defenses! Now the only question is, will the enemy attack again? Although he is a follower of His Majesty, he does not have the ability to be like a thief, and he cannot directly contact Lin Tian, so he can only rely on his own experience to judge. However, he was very detailed about his master's abilities, and was convinced that even if the orcs outside the city left at this time, when they reached their position, it would not have any effect on the battle in the south. He made up his mind that if the enemy left, he would follow his master's 16-character tactical policy and lead the elite troops out of the city to harass him, and it would be completely possible to delay a little time!
Will it still attack? This choice had never come to the mind of the proud orc captain at all, and he had never thought about it.
He ordered his troops to retreat a short distance, set up camp, and then ordered his subordinates to go to the woodcuts, and the field must be recovered. He has always been conceited and brave, and even all the officers and soldiers of the army also think so. There are only more than 10,000 human warriors, and there are 10,000 people in our army. Today is a dark loss, and when you prepare the siege equipment, this city is definitely a dish. When the time comes, the three-way army, your own side will win first, and Your Majesty will definitely reward yourself, and you can't say that you can get an Iron Cross if you are not careful! Ha Lu Ha!
He gave an order to the troops, and after the city was breached, the troops were allowed to move freely and rest for a day...... Do you think this order is normal?
You're wrong! What a mistake!
This order is actually the most feared and notorious ...... "city-breaking order" that all ethnic groups on the mainland are most afraid of!
