Chapter 24: It's over

After more than 2 months of training, coupled with the personal guidance of Captain Richard's guard, although Leo can't even compare to Sun Lin in riding skills, and can only fight a tie with Sun Lin in the infantry attack, but in the infantry defense, it is estimated that except for Captain Richard's guard, no other member of the general guard team can break through Leo who is in a defensive posture with a spear and a kite-shaped shield in a one-on-one situation.

One top, one push, one stab, the simple shield spear routine wielded in Leo's hands is vigorous, and the speed of the same cloud will block any half-orc who rushes towards Sun Lin, and even the half-orc hand-to-hand warrior holding a huge stone axe is kicked off the city wall by Leo under his superb steps. And when Sun Lin followed Leo, he made up for Leo from time to time, or disposed of those half-orcs who were lying on the floor and moaning, although Sun Lin rarely made a move, he was still vigilant about the surrounding city walls all the time, because just now, Sun Lin and Leo saw a half-orc who was about to die, and suddenly burst out and hugged a hook and sickle soldier who walked past him, and before the hook or sickle could react, the dying half-orc actually pulled the hook and sickle soldier and fell off the city wall together, You must know that although there are already corpses piled up under the city walls, and the hook and sickle soldier is still wearing a set of full-body light chain mail, if he falls into a clearing, more than 10 people may not be able to fall to death, but he will also be branded with a lifelong disability. And although Sun Lin is not afraid of death, it does not mean that he wants to become a military ghost who wants to sit on a four-wheeled vehicle and command the army every day.

Maybe it's because of the addition of the hook and sickle soldiers and the general's guard, or maybe because these people are favored by God, not long after the orc troops on the eastern wall were completely suppressed, the frantic offensive of the orcs on the western battlefield finally began to weaken, of course, those civilian crossbowmen who climbed to nearby houses to block from a distance cannot be ruled out here.

Legion Name: Civilian Crossbowman

Class: Ranged Infantry

Features: Good at fighting hills and forests

Attack: 2+5 (Ranged: 9+5)

Defense: 1+5+2 (Leather Armor and Light Chain Mail)

Charge power: 1+5 (I just discovered a loophole in this book, that is, if you compare it according to the basic values in Medieval 2 Total War, many people will find that in addition to the low charge power, the attack and defense power of the late infantry are higher than some late cavalry units, right?) For example, when the civilian crossbowman above starts to charge, the attack power generated by the above civilian crossbowman is: (2+5)+(1+5+2)+(1+5)=21, that is to say, at this time, this class will cause 21 attack damage to its attack object when charging, and the cavalry is calculated by multiplication, if the civilian crossbowman above is a cavalry, then the attack power generated when charging is: (2+5)*(1+5+2)* (1+5)=336!Of course, if it is a heavy cavalry, the attack power it causes will be multiplied by 2, and the heavy infantry is also, although the charging power of the heavy cavalry seems to be a bit exaggerated, but this explains how the heavy cavalry can use the charge to knock the infantry away, and do you want to see the strange scene of the heavy infantry knocking the heavy cavalry and the horses into the air? )

"Although limited to the problem of angle, these archers with leather armor and chain mail, helmets with sharp horns or disc helmets, and crossbows in their hands cannot be used against the orcs who climb outside the wall towards the top of the wall, but when those orcs climb the wall, those crossbows are useful again, although these long-range weapons that shoot in a straight line cannot be projectile like bows and arrows, and the reloading speed is not high, but their great power cannot be denied, even after the half-orc hand-to-hand combat warriors with thick skin and thick flesh are taken by an arrow, There is only the life of lying and waiting for death. And the crossbow is more lethal to the enemy the closer it gets, although the power of the stepping crossbow is relatively low compared to the later pulley crossbow, mechanical crossbow and even the continuous shooting crossbow, but at present, for these half-orcs who don't even wear leather armor, the lethality of any crossbow is the same within 100 meters, and they will die as soon as they are hit, even if the enemy's general is the same.

"Leo, are you sure that guy is the leader of the orcs? You know, I only have one of these poisoned crossbow arrows, and if I make a mistake, I won't be able to get this slave. When Leo and Sun Lin climbed onto a half-collapsed shooting platform, under Leo's identification, Sun Lin found a half-orc crowd of half-orcs who was only more than 1.2 meters tall, but holding an axe that was pressed out of iron ore, and the half-orc was not wearing the rough leather clothes worn by ordinary half-orc warriors, but a beast skin skirt that had been modified by various paintings, plus a large number of human bones and animal bone ornaments on his body, which was enough to prove that this guy's identity was by no means ordinary.

"Don't worry, Your Excellency General, you see that guy is surrounded by more than 20 orc hand-to-hand warriors, but nowhere else, and that half-orc is the first of the half-orc hand-to-hand warriors to climb up, according to your reasoning, I think the leader of this barbarian tribe should bear the brunt of the battle, so I am 80% sure that guy is the commander-in-chief of this group of half-orcs, but I have a question, general, why don't you kill him directly but put him down?"

"Leo, let me ask you, what impression does the orcs make on you?"

“………… It's stupid, it's courageous, it's not afraid of death, and it's strong. ”

"You've got to the point, it's a lot of strength! Leo, do you remember a report from the mine a few weeks ago that said that a lot of mine support was hidden in the cracks inside the pit, but because the miners were so big, all the minerals were out of reach, but the orcs were ..............."

"But we don't just need to capture those orc captives, we don't need to capture this leader?"

"Leo, I'll give you an analogy, if one day I'm captured by the enemy, it's just an analogy! What would you do if the enemy offered to let me go if they asked you to withdraw your troops? ”

"It's ............ Oh! I see! General, you want to ............"

"Yes, that's right, instead of controlling a group of troops that will resist at any time, it is better to recruit the leader of this group of troops and let him serve me, and don't forget, there are definitely more than a few orc tribes to fight this time, but the problem is that they are all in the desert oasis, and none of our troops are good at desert combat, if we equip this orc army with weapons and promise it to catch other orcs for us, then we won't be able to get more orc coolies?"

"But Your Excellency, aren't you afraid that they will bring other orcs to take revenge on us?"

"Don't worry, I have a benefit here that they can't refuse, and they won't rebel............... Hey? Is that...... Reinforcements! "The word reinforcement is like a spell, although Sun Lin said it quietly, and he said it in pure English, but the half-orcs present seemed to understand Sun Lin's words, and looked in the direction Sun Lin was looking, and saw a human army of 100 being killed towards the tail of the half-orc army."

"Yes, it's Captain Richard!"

"It's him! Isn't that the battle under the canyon already won? ”

"Hurry up and counterattack! Hurry up and counterattack! We can't let those people see the joke! ”

"It's now!" Just as the military spirit of the half-orcs began to be chaotic and the morale of the human soldiers was raised again, a sharp arrow passed through the layers of air barriers, and under the frightened eyes of more than 20 half-orc hand-to-hand combat warriors, it shot the right shoulder of the half-orc general, and in an instant, the entire army of half-orcs collapsed!
