Chapter 44: Reinforcements Arrive
When the morning was about to dawn, the sound of fighting on the city wall gradually subsided, and then a large number of seriously wounded people were sent in, and from their mouths, Wu Fan and they also knew the situation of this battle.
It turned out that the intensity of the siege on the city wall was not large, mainly to attract the main force of the Tiger Legion, and the real killing move was that the orcs used the winged men as a means of transportation, and transported many nezumi elites into the city, and some government dignitaries, magicians, etc. were assassinated; Water sources in the city have been poisoned and important public facilities have been destroyed.
Hearing this news, Wu Fan couldn't believe it, aren't the orcs in the legend all the representatives of stupid big people? How can you be so smart? Uh, it's so insidious!
After some small talk, Wu Fan finally had some understanding of orcs.
It turns out that the orcs are also divided into many races, each race has its own specialty, for example, the winged people are united by the swan race, the eagle race and other flying races, and many people in the human race can't tell them apart, so they are collectively called the winged people, they are the air force among the orcs, good at bows and arrows; Cat people, rat people, snake people and other races with high dexterity are the assassin race, and they are also essential in the army; There are a large number of pig-headed people, and most of the ordinary soldiers in the army are composed of them, which belong to the cannon fodder race; The Minotaurs are powerful and are the backbone of the infantry among the orcs; Werewolves are ferocious and often have wolf relatives or wolf training, the two cooperate with the industry, come and go without wind, and the wolves in the orcs cannot be ridden; The fox tribe is cunning and insidious, and is the most intelligent race among the orcs, and they will mostly become orc sacrifices; The tiger people are the royal family of the beast clan, and the high-end power of the beast clan, the tiger clan accounts for more than half.
There are many other races, although there are individuals who are quite powerful, but their numbers are too small to be dominant among the beasts. For example, the Beamon Giant Beast Clan and the Giant Crocodile Clan; There is also the legend of the most powerful dragons, but the dragons do not admit that they are among the beasts.
This time, there are fox people in the beast army, as well as snake people and embarrassment soldiers, and the plan they set is not to be underestimated, and the night sneak into the city to sabotage and assassinate must be designed by these military advisors.
At the headquarters of the Tiger Legion, the 'Tiger' had a black face at this time, and opposite him was Andre, the city lord of Black Earth City, and his face was not good-looking at this time.
"Lord Tiger, last night, many dignitaries in our city lord's mansion were assassinated, many public facilities were destroyed, and the wells were poisoned, and now the people in the city are panicking, I heard that the rat people assassins were sent into the city from the sky by the winged people, you have to think of a way, otherwise, the city will be in chaos." City Lord Andre said with a bitter face.
The tiger said with a dark face: "What can I do, my tiger army only has 200,000, and I have to guard against millions of orc troops." The most odious thing is that he doesn't know who the military advisor on the other side is, but he is so cunning that he uses his troops perfectly, insidious and vicious. ”
After thinking about it, the tiger said: "In this way, the personnel who have been recruited, except for the magician, will be handed over to you to deal with the infiltration of the orcs." But first of all, if the war on my side is tense, I will temporarily let them come to support. ”
Andre nodded and said: "That's the only way, the city guards in my hands have no combat effectiveness, they can only deal with ordinary things, and if there are professionals who have been recruited, it will be much easier for me to do it, then I will go back first, I have to find the presidents of several guilds to discuss, how to prevent orcs from infiltrating again." ”
Andrei left in a hurry, and the tiger summoned a few of his men to arrange the strength of the army.
"After you go back, gather more soldiers who can shoot arrows, strengthen the bow and arrow battalion, and in the future, our strategy will have to be changed, try not to fight with orcs, use more bows and arrows and magic, don't talk about magicians, the magic brigade will deal with it itself; In the past, the number of archers in the battalion was small, but when the number increased, it was mainly used to defend against the opponent's air force and clear important targets in head-on combat......"
……
After dealing with a lot of things, the tiger was also very tired, he hadn't slept for several days, if it weren't for the fact that he was a sword saint and had a strong physique, he wouldn't have been able to hold on.
"My lord, there is a piece of news, you will definitely be in a good mood when you hear it." One of the tiger's guards reported to the tiger with a smile on his face.
The tiger frowned, and looked at the person who was talking in front of him with some displeasure, this person was his brother-in-law Jiang Xi. When he was young, he devoted all his energy to cultivation, and later entered the army, busy with military affairs, and never considered personal affairs.
It wasn't until a few years ago, after cultivating to the Sword Saint, it was almost impossible to improve his cultivation, so he married a wife, he was more than a hundred years old, just for the reason of cultivation, he looked like he was only in his forties, very young, his wife was in her twenties, and she gave birth to a son to him last year.
His father-in-law is a small nobleman, there are many women, and there are many children, his wife and this brother-in-law are brothers and sisters of the same father and mother, in order to take care of this brother-in-law, specially arranged for him to be a personal guard by his side, earn some military merits, and take care of himself, there will be no danger.
It's just that this brother-in-law usually doesn't do his job, and he thinks it's not fun in the army all day long, so he runs around.
Seeing that his brother-in-law didn't speak, Jiang Xi hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law...... Uh, my lord, this news is absolutely important, you will definitely be in a good mood when you hear it, do you know that disciple of Master Willy? It's that high-level magician Wu Fan, he actually knows how to resurrect the technique! ”
"What!" The tiger stood up violently, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't believe that the news was true.
Seeing the shocked look of the tiger, Jiang Xi said proudly: "What I said is true, last night, the field hospital was also attacked, and many magicians died, and in the end, Master Wu Fan made a move, except for the two unlucky guys who were not successfully resurrected, the others were resurrected by him." ”
"That Wu Fan likes Mei Lan, Mei Lan was shot by the winged people, he set fire to the sea of crazy people, and the attacking wingmen didn't have time to escape, so they were all burned into roast chickens by him, and fell down like dumplings, after the madness, he resurrected Meilan! Then the other magicians and their bodyguards were resurrected. I also heard that on the way to Black Earth City, they also encountered the attack of the winged people, he also killed twenty winged people, resurrected many mercenaries, and obtained a lot of military merits, and then he sold the military merits to Ye Tianlong of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce! ”
"So at stake?" The tiger couldn't believe it, but he also knew that although his brother-in-law loved to play, he was a good hand at inquiring about the news.
It's just that what makes the tiger unhappy is that he, the commander of the corps, didn't know about such important news, and no one reported it, or his brother-in-law told him that he only knew, and it seems that after the war, he has to put it in order.
Now I can't control those people, so I need to send someone to protect Wu Fan, if the orcs know the news, they will definitely send people to assassinate Wu Fan.
The Tiger immediately issued a gag order to all those who knew about it, and sent a Sword King (level 8) personal guard to protect Wu Fan, and at the same time, in order not to expose Wu Fan, he also included the field hospital in the protection of the legion headquarters.
As soon as the matter about Wu Fan was arranged, and he was about to go to see it in person, he received news that the reinforcements sent by the imperial capital had arrived.
The Imperial Capital Reinforcements consisted of a Royal Order of 200,000 men and a brigade of Royal Magicians.
The Royal Knights of the Tianyu Empire have a total of 500,000 people, all of them are composed of professionals above the fourth level, and they are one of the most powerful combat forces of the Tianyu Empire, and this time they sent 200,000 people, although the number of people does not seem to be much, but the combat effectiveness is absolutely amazing, at least the Tiger Legion is vulnerable in front of the 200,000 Royal Knights.
The Royal Magician Regiment is the trump card of the Tianyu Empire, with a total of four brigades, each with a thousand people, all of which are composed of magicians above level five, and the number is pitiful, but this combat power is stronger than the Royal Knights.
What the tiger didn't expect was that the people who led the reinforcements this time were actually the eldest prince and the court magician Nan Ke, and it was reasonable for the eldest prince to come, after all, the 200,000 royal knights were such a powerful force, and His Majesty the Emperor was not at ease to hand it over to outsiders.
And the court magician Nan Ke is a little strange, this Nan Ke magician is a genius of the Tianyu Empire, is the youngest holy magic guide in the empire, is indifferent, does not care about political affairs, and is dedicated to cultivation, and has cultivated the water system and thunder magic to the ninth level, I heard that he is now studying the mysterious prophecy magic in the legend, and I don't know how well he has studied it.
In the eyes of the tiger, Nan Ke should study the prophecy magic in the palace, not to be a reinforcement, but it's okay to come, this is one of the few holy magic guides in the empire, the combination of water and thunder, the combat power is not weaker than Master Willy's super ninth-level magic.
"You are Wu Fan?" A tough soldier came to the field hospital, and after coming to the hospital, he directly found Wu Fan.
Wu Fan looked at the soldier in front of him, this guy didn't wear a career badge, and he didn't know what rank he was, but Wu Fan could feel that he was a dangerous guy, and this guy seemed to be very dissatisfied with himself.
"I am, what's the matter with you?" Wu Fan is not afraid that he will really make a move on himself, there are many sixth-level bodyguards here.
"I'm Made, and the Legion Commander asked me to protect you, huh!" Ma De couldn't help but look at the senior magician badge on Wu Fan's chest, the meaning was very obvious, some looked down on Wu Fan's level, and he was very dissatisfied with protecting a senior magician.
Wu Fan was also an arrogant guy, and said coldly: "I don't need your protection, you can go back." ”
Now it was Ma De's turn to be dumbfounded, he didn't expect Wu Fan to say this, he came with a military order, how could he go back casually, and he was a sword king, and he was the personal guard of the army commander, who was polite to him.
He glared at Wu Fan and said, "This is the order of the legion commander, let me protect you." ”
As he spoke, he took out a military order.
Wu Fan didn't understand this, the two bodyguards around him understood, and after helping Wu Fan see it, he nodded to Wu Fan and explained Ma De's identity, Wu Fan had no choice but to leave this arrogant guy, it is always good to have one more master to protect him, although it is not pleasing to the eye.
As soon as Mader was dealt with, an even stranger guy came to look for Wu Fan.
