Chapter 212 [Half-Orc Anomaly]
At this time, He Ping and the elven elders, as well as the other elves, were already on their way back to the interior of the forest, and when they approached the core area, the other elven warriors who needed to patrol the periphery left one after another, and finally only He Ping and the five elven elders were left to move on, and He Ping wanted to follow them to the deepest part of the Meliane Forest, the core area of the Noldor elves, because there were too many things to ask each other.
The battle was won, the half-orcs were repulsed, the elves had losses, but the losses were very small, especially compared to the previous battles, this time the losses were amazingly small, this is still the result after the half-orcs learned to join forces, learned to fight east and west, and learned to wait for work, and He Ping, the role played in this result is very large, however, although the battle was won, but whether it was He Ping or the elves, the face at this time was not too good, and the performance of the half-orcs was too abnormal!
He Ping already knew something about the situation of the half-orcs from the elves, and the elves naturally knew more about the main enemy of the half-orcs, and even had special research, studying the ecology of the half-orcs, studying the system of the half-orcs, studying the civilization of the half-orcs, and studying the power of the half-orcs, but no matter what He Ping learned about the half-orcs from the elves, but the information that the elves already knew about the half-orcs, today's battle, there are too many anomalies.
The first is the union of multiple tribes, which has never been done before, and the half-orc tribes will never unite with each other, firstly, because the half-orc warriors, especially the war lords, are unwilling to obey the command of other tribes, and secondly, after the joint battle, how should the spoils of war be counted? Is it according to the degree of casualties? How many people will play? Or according to the record? There is no standard for any of this, and the question of how the tribes are going to fight and so on is beyond the orc's muscular brains.
But in today's battle, there are three tribes on the northern border, one is the Black Falcon tribe that is closest to the Melione Forest and often comes to attack the Noldor Elves, one is the largest blood axe tribe in this area, and the other is the unknown mysterious tribe, when they didn't know that it was a union of multiple tribes, the elves thought it was the blood axe tribe attacking, because only the blood axe tribe can gather so many war lords and trolls.
But later I learned that it was a union of three tribes, on the northern border, the Black Fastrel tribe was basically doing its best, but the Blood Axe tribe only had a part of its strength there, and on the northeast border, it was also a joint force of the three tribes, of which the remaining strength of the Blood Axe tribe was here, in addition, the unknown mysterious tribe also had a certain number of troops on this side, because this tribe did not have many troops on both sides, but it can be considered that the size of this tribe was only average.
In addition to these two tribes, there is also a tribe with a coat of arms on the northeast border that is a sledgehammer, and a skull is installed at the end of the hammer handle, according to the information of the elves, this is a half-orc tribe called the Angry Hammer that is slightly farther away from the Meliane Forest than the Black Falcon Tribe, and the size is about the same as the Black Falcon Tribe, and the half-orcs of the Angry Hammer tribe on the northeastern border should also be their full strength.
So the problem is, according to the information that the elves have, the Black Falcon tribe and the Angry Hammer tribe are mortal enemies! Although these two tribes will run to the side of the Noldor elves at every turn to fight the autumn wind and plunder some food resources, but in fact, the frequency of battles between these two tribes is higher than the frequency of their attacks on the elves.
But now? Although the two tribes did not appear on the same battlefield, but appeared on two different battlefields, but the fact of union has not changed, the two tribes that were originally mortal enemies actually joined forces to attack the elves, although today there are many things that are contrary to the common sense of the elves, but this fact is what surprises the elves even more, usually, if one side comes to attack the elves, and the other side does not take the opportunity to attack the tribal base camp of this side, it is quite good.
In fact, there are even more surprising things for the elves, this time the offensive of the half-orcs is not only the two waves of troops on the northern border and the northeast border, before He Ping learned from the elves that the half-orcs and wolf cavalry have not been used, and it is not certain that there are no other tribes except for the four tribes known now, so it is not possible to use high-end combat power such as elf elders too early, and the so-called wolf cavalry is not not not dispatched, but just went to other places.
At this time, He Ping knew that not long after the battle between the two sides began, a large number of wolf cavalry approached the northwestern border of the Meliane Forest, although the leaders of this group of wolf cavalry were just ordinary half-orc warriors, not war lords, but the equipment was not bad, and the coats of arms of the tribes were also engraved on them, and the coats of arms on the armor of the leaders of these wolf cavalry were not the same tribe, but also three!
Most of the wolf cavalry are from the Blood Axe Tribe, these wolf cavalry serve as the middle army of this batch of troops, and the remaining half of the wolf cavalry are respectively responsible for the left and right wings, the wolf cavalry on the left wing are all from the Black Falcon tribe, and the wolf cavalry on the right wing are all from the Angry Hammer Tribe.
At this time, He Ping also knew the situation of the battle on the other two sides, although the northern border was more dangerous, but it was good to leave enough elven warriors, so although there were losses and casualties, the half-orc troops still retreated after losing a lot of half-orc warriors and trolls, and the wolf cavalry on the northwest border was handed over to the elven mobile troops who had been on standby in the core area of the forest before, and it was also one of the unicorn knights with high-end combat effectiveness, so there was no suspense.
In fact, the most dangerous thing is the northeast border where He Ping is located, because of the initial preconceived reasons, there are not many troops here, and when it is learned that this side is also attacked, the high-end combat power has to be on standby in the core area, waiting for any other areas to be attacked, therefore, the number of troops on the northeast border is the smallest, if it is not for He Ping to kill so many half-orc warriors with super high efficiency, kill a war lord and a troll, and delay the battle until the elven elders arrive, The fighting there must have been terrible.
In this way, the strategy adopted by the orcs is obvious, whether it is the mixed troops on the northern border or the wolf cavalry on the northwest border, in fact, it can be regarded as a feint, the real target of the half-orcs is the northeast border, the two successive feints have restrained most of the elves' combat effectiveness and attention, and the northeast border can form a superior force to kill the defending elf troops as soon as possible, so as to drive straight into the interior of the forest to plunder.
The fact that the orcs were able to come up with such a detailed and clever battle plan was the most surprising thing for the elves!
