Chapter 28: Crushing the Orc Rebellion

President Resa didn't dwell too much on the issue of the guards, and quickly turned the conversation to the object of their operation.

Xu Yi was not good at this kind of problem, and he didn't care much about it, thinking that he might stay up late at night, so he simply went back to the carriage and slept well.

The convoy did not stop near the Worrall werewolf tribe, but went straight to the intended location.

By the time the convoy stopped at the predetermined location, it was already nightfall.

Xu Yi jumped out of the carriage and beckoned several commanders of his escort team to inquire about the situation.

However, the three of them all said that they did not find anything abnormal, so Xu Yi could only wave his hand and let them continue to strengthen their vigilance.

It was already night, and it was impossible to completely build the camp, so the convoy simply gathered around and put together a simple camp, intending to spend the night here.

It was already close to the end of October, and there was no shelter on the Black Rice Wasteland, and the air around it was a little cold at night.

Xu Yi wrinkled his nose and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If it were me, the first choice at this time would be to go home and sleep well, so that I wouldn't have to run to do such drudgery at night in such a cold night like these idiot orcs, and I would have to give my life if I didn't do it." ”

President Relsa, who was on the side, laughed: "Orcs have lived in this harsh environment since they were children, and they are not as delicate as you, President Xu. Of course, it's true that they are not right to run for their lives. But who told them to beat our mind?"

"That said, you said that you would follow the example of the orc tribes of Worrall and work with us honestly. There is money to be made again. Also relaxed and comfortable. How nice is that. Why bother to find hardships by yourself?" Xu Yi sighed.

"It's a pity, you think it's cooperation, but in the eyes of orc racists like the Orc Independent Legion, it is we humans who want to corrupt the orcs, so they shout slogans to resist.

Xu Yi sneered: "Corruption? Do they mean that the orcs deserve to have no clothes to wear, no food to eat, and have to live in a house with wind on all sides to endure hardship? ”

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, there are quite a few orcs who agree with them. Estimates based on intelligence. We're going to face more orcs tonight than we thought. ”

"A rabble, not worth mentioning. Xu Yi pursed his lips, his face full of disdain.

The last time he was attacked by this orc independent legion, Xu Yi was not fully prepared, so that in the end, he had to rely on his own action to stabilize the situation.

But this time he came prepared, and Xu Yi was confident that no matter how many orcs came, they would definitely not be able to help him.

At the beginning of the night, it was still uneventful, but as soon as it entered the middle of the night, when the night was at its strongest, anomalies immediately appeared.

Looking at the black shadow on the horizon in the distance, the black pressed a large black shadow. Feeling the constant vibration of the ground, President Cruise's face immediately changed slightly. Exclaimed, "Oh no, there are too many of them, right?"

Xu Yi and President Resa glanced at each other and smiled at the same time.

"It's okay, it wasn't too much of a surprise to us. Xu Yi waved his hand, and the leader of the human guards, Hart, the leader of the dwarf warriors, Omar, and the leader of the elven warriors, Farioqi, who were standing behind him, stepped forward in unison. "Do what you planned. I will not interfere with your specific command, but I have only one request. ”

Seeing that all three of them were staring at him solemnly, Xu Yi waved his arm vigorously and said in a deep voice: "Give me all my strength to defeat them! Completely crush the fighting spirit of these damn orcs for me! Let them never dare to have any thoughts of resistance in the future!"

Hart and Omar complied, and Fario gave Xu Yi a solemn salute, and then the three of them retreated.

President Relsa, who was on the side, laughed and said, "President Xu, that's a good point! We just want to let these damn guys hurt and let them know that it's best not to come to our idea in the future, and we will never suffer in the future!"

With that, Resa immediately gave an order to the captain of the guard of the Rexton Chamber of Commerce.

President Cruise shook his head helplessly when he saw the fierce and murderous appearance of the two of them, and summoned the captain of the guard of his Amrley Chamber of Commerce and the captain of the Armani Chamber of Commerce who was handed over to him because he did not come today, and after explaining a few words, he let the guards of the two chambers of commerce also take action.

The joint operation of the four chambers of commerce used almost all of the strength of the escort team of the four chambers of commerce, and the total number of human warriors was 1,500, as well as 200 elven warriors and 300 dwarven warriors.

If it is placed under normal circumstances, this combat power will definitely make everyone look sideways.

However, the orcs who were lured by the bait deliberately released by the four chambers of commerce tonight were obviously far more numerous than the orcs who came to attack last time.

A cursory look at the night, you will find that the number of orcs attacking this time is probably at least more than 5,000.

However, in the face of the enemies far outnumbered last time, although the expression on President Cruise's face was still a little worried, he was far less panicked than last time, and even had the leisure to complain to Xu Yi.

"If we knew that so many orcs would have come back this time, we should have made some more preparations. ”

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Don't worry, such preparations are enough, just look at it." ”

While the two were talking, the orcs who had rushed to the front had already entered a distance of no more than five hundred meters from the camp.

Xu Yi snorted lightly: "Trebuchet ready!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw several pieces of cloth in the convoy camp being lifted, and then I heard a crisp sound of clicking machinery, and the four dazzling magic arrays activated the light, and the four magic trebuchets stretched out from the previous state of being folded and compressed into a ball in a few breaths, and became a complete body.

"Listen to my commands, one, two, three...... Put!" This time it was not Xu Yi who shouted this, but Hart.

With an order, four boulders with a diameter of nearly half a meter roared out of the magic trebuchet, and after a while, they flew over a distance of more than four hundred meters and fell directly into the rushing orc formation.

The boulder carried the huge impact of the catapult of the magic trebuchet, and smashed down heavily, and suddenly there was a loud explosion like thunder, and the ground of the Black Rice Wasteland was directly smashed into a large pit that was directly close to ten meters.

The orcs who were directly hit by the boulder naturally had no chance of being spared, and even if the orcs who were affected next to them were not killed on the spot, they were shocked by the huge shock wave and spurted blood, and instantly lost their combat effectiveness.

However, these four boulders were only the beginning, and after the first batch of four boulders were launched, only half a minute later, the four magic trebuchets launched four boulders again, mercilessly smashing into the formation of the orcs rushing over, bringing a bloody storm.

Seeing the terrifying power of the Magic Trebuchet with their own eyes, both President Resa and President Cruise couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock.

President Resa couldn't help but exclaim: "This magic trebuchet is really so terrifying, no wonder the Zhenbei Army was able to easily defeat the camp of the Sark Kingdom and snatch back the Murto Mountains with just three magic trebuchets. If the Zhenbei Army can have a few more or even dozens of units, I'm afraid that the Kingdom of Sark will not be able to resist the offensive of the Zhenbei Army at all, and even the capital will be directly captured by the Zhenbei Army, right?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "That's impossible." Although this magic trebuchet is very powerful, the disadvantages are also obvious. The first is that it is not flexible enough, it is only useful when fighting positional warfare, and it will not be useful once it encounters an opponent who is flexible or has a fast assault speed. It's okay to deal with these stupid orcs, but if you use it to deal with the Sark Kingdom, I'm afraid it will be directly scattered by the cavalry of the Sark Kingdom. ”

"Well, that's a problem. President Resa nodded. "It's really good for attacking, but when you defend, it's of limited use. So what are the drawbacks, aside from being inflexible?"

"In addition, this disadvantage is actually more fatal than the lack of flexibility. The shortcoming of flexibility can be overcome by adding mobility to the magic trebuchet in the future, but this shortcoming is something that our Chamber of Commerce can't solve. Xu Yidao.

"Oh, what shortcomings can't even your Chamber of Commerce overcome?" President Cruise interjected curiously.

"That's expensive. Xu Yi smiled bitterly, pointed to the magic trebuchet behind him, which had stopped the first round of firing and began to reload the boulder, but it was obvious that there would be no more chance to launch, and said: "The first version of the magic trebuchet we developed, that is, a magic trebuchet for the Zhenbei Army will cost at least a thousand gold coins. And at present, although this new version of the magic trebuchet has a faster rate of fire and better quality, the cost is also much higher, reaching 1,300 gold coins. ”

"That's not expensive. "As the presidents of the two major chambers of commerce, neither President Cruise nor President Resa thinks that more than a thousand gold coins are nothing. "With such a powerful weapon, let alone 1,300 gold coins, even if it is 3,100 gold coins, countless people will still rush to buy it. ”

"That's it, I'm still worried that if you use it so blatantly, it won't attract the attention of other countries. President Cruise was worried.

"Sooner or later, they'll notice. Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders, not caring much about this. "As for you not thinking it's expensive, it's because you all have money. But unfortunately, our kingdom's military department is really terribly poor. In fact, these four magic trebuchets were originally intended to be sold to the military headquarters, but the military headquarters told me that because I had spent too much money in the battle for the Murto Mountains, the military headquarters could not even take out 5,000 gold coins. I think I'm idle anyway, and I happened to have such an action, so I simply dragged it over and tried it myself. ”

President Cruise and President Resa looked at each other, speechless.

Although they also knew about the embarrassment of the kingdom's finances, they didn't expect that the dignified kingdom's military headquarters didn't even have a mere five thousand gold coins, which was really a bit too shabby. (To be continued......)
