Chapter 104: Assault
Looking at Silverstone City, where the city gate was closed, General Hod only felt cold in his hands and feet at this time, and his heart was cold. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info recalled that before the departure, His Majesty the Beast Emperor had instructed him to cross the Thousands of Miles of Wasteland this time, and he must turn their rear upside down before the Human Empire reacts, so as to reduce the pressure on the frontline battle.
But I never thought that human beings had prepared in advance, how did the news leak?
"General Hodder, this city is already on guard, let's change our target! There are still so many villages in the human territory, enough for us to loot and kill, and let the soldiers vent first!"
"Okay, then order the whole army to turn!" General Hodder, though he thought very much of himself, still obeyed the words of the embarrassed and wise, and immediately passed the order.
Viscount Rubin, who was cowering and hiding at the head of the city, saw the orc wolf riding around, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted luck in their hearts.
Only Viscount Brontë's face changed, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly shouted: "It's not good, they are going to attack the villages and manors around Silverstone City!"
Hearing Viscount Brontë's words, the faces of many nobles changed color, and their fiefdoms, their estates, and even most of their possessions were in the estates outside the city.
Everyone looked at the consul Viscount Rubin, and the consul who was in the spotlight could only smile bitterly: "Think about it, with the combat ability of the city guards, it is still insufficient to defend the city, let alone go out of the city to fight, there is really nothing you can do!"
Viscount Rubin's words made everyone stunned, in fact, everyone understands that even the four main legions of the empire may not be able to win against the orcs, not to mention the wolf cavalry who come and go like the wind and are extremely brutal, with the little strength of the city guards of Silverstone City, it is not enough to go out of the city to fight for others!
Soon, the villages around Silverstone City were killed, and the wolf cavalry crossed the desert on goblins all the way, and entering the human villages at this time was like a wolf into the flock, and a village was slaughtered by them in an instant, all the food and livestock were plundered, and even the corpses of the villagers were full of wolves.
After successively attacking several villages and noble manors, General Hod finally confirmed from the mouths of those humans who took the initiative to beg for mercy and surrender that the main combat legions of the Human Varu Empire were all headed for the Holy Griffin Empire bordering the Orc Empire in the northwest.
In order to better carry out the task of harassing the rear of mankind, General Hod divided his more than 6,000 wolf cavalry into six thousand cavalry teams, led by each thousand cavalry commanders, who slaughtered the human kingdom from all directions, burning and looting along the way.
One of the wolf riders was running in the direction of the Barony of Leo, but when they entered the Barony of Leo, they found that the village had long been deserted, and it seemed that all the inhabitants had already known that they were coming, and had fled for their lives.
Out of caution, the werewolf commander did not order a search and pursuit, but slowed down his march and sent more wolf cavalry sentinels to investigate the surrounding situation.
The caution of the werewolf thousand cavalry commanders was not in vain, and the wolf cavalry sentry soon encountered the Cossack cavalry sent by Leo to reconnoitre. The Cossack cavalry, who had never fought with the wolf cavalry, did not turn around and run away out of confidence in their horse combat ability, but stepped forward to take the initiative to fight the wolf cavalry sentinel, wanting to obtain more information
But what is surprising is that with the same number of people and the same superb martial arts and horsemanship, almost as soon as they make contact, the Cossack cavalry suffers a major blow. The problem lies in the human war horse, although the war horse under the crotch of the Cossack cavalry is a hybrid heavy war horse with excellent endurance and explosive power, but the opponent is a vicious and brutal wolf.
Although it is a head shorter than a human war horse, the moment of contact, the wolf that stands up opens its bloody mouth and bites the neck of the war horse, puts the war horse down and bites it to death, and the Cossack cavalry on horseback has nothing to do even if they are clever in riding, they can only fight desperately with the wolf cavalry, but they will soon be hated on the spot under the attack of the wolf cavalry and the wolf.
More than ten Cossack cavalry were killed without even a charge, and only two wolf cavalry were killed and wounded, this battle damage ratio is enough to show the strength of the orc's combat power, and it also makes the werewolf thousand cavalry commanders feel at ease, the combat ability of human beings is still so weak.
The loss of the Cossack cavalry made Leo in the castle realize that the orc army had entered his territory. And the few points of the gods' pleasure given by the Arena of the Gods indicate that those Cossack cavalry were easily killed without causing any damage to the opponent, and it seems that the opponent is really not good!
After the wolves devoured a dozen horses and cavalry, the werewolf thousand cavalry leaders led the army forward again, and after crossing a mountain range, the tall human castle towering on the edge of a village and town appeared in front of the wolf cavalry.
The smoke rising from the castle indicates that it is inhabited, although the castle looks relatively sturdy and sturdy, but the werewolf thousand horsemen do not care too much, from the experience of burning and killing along the way, as long as the wolf cavalry is a little intimidated, maybe the humans in the castle will obediently open the city gate and surrender.
Of course, if this is the manor of the Dewar family, with the cowardly character of Baron Dewar, maybe he will really do something to surrender voluntarily in order to survive. However, this was Leo's domain, home to powerful legions such as Spartan warriors and Vikings.
The wolf cavalry, led by the commander of the thousand cavalry, let out a long howl and rushed into the town of Beiyuan. However, the result was destined to disappoint them, at this time the town of Beiyuan was already empty, not only that, but all the belongings were also taken away by the townspeople, and everything that could not be transported was piled up in the castle, leaving not a grain of rice for the orcs.
The most ruthless thing is that even a few wells in the town were buried by Potter and others, and if the wolf cavalry could not capture the castle, then they would have to leave the barony, otherwise hunger and thirst alone would kill them.
After searching the town for a long time, and not even finding anything of value, the Thousand Riders felt that the whole wolf was not good, and it turned its head to look at the castle not far away, wondering if everything was concentrated in the castle, and whether it would be a trap for humans.
However, the current form did not allow the Thousand Cavalry Commander to think too much, and almost all the wolf cavalry who returned empty-handed stared at the Thousand Cavalry Commander, hoping that it would give the order to break the castle and make everyone happy to kill and plunder.
