Section 12
'As I said, Hanks always surprises people and I like his style of play. "Gray is in a relatively high position, and he can see everything on the battlefield clearly.
Rena nodded undeniably, she preferred Robert Knight's commanding style. This knight has been in the army for more than 20 years, and he has held all positions in the army except for the logistics department, so this knight knows very well what the soldiers need, and at the same time, his extremely rich combat experience on the battlefield can help him achieve the maximum results in the simplest way.
Rena looked at Gray, and she could feel that deep down in Gray's heart, she also admired Robert Knight's commanding skills, but she also knew why Gray always praised Hanks in public and never showed good looks to Robert.
Rena is also a commander, and she also doesn't like her subordinates being too smart, although it makes you more comfortable with things.
Of course, a good commander will not be jealous of the talents of his subordinates, so Gray still has a long way to go.
However, when infantry fights the enemy at short distances, they need someone like Knight Hanks.
Because, the soldiers like such commanders, they can feel at ease and increase their confidence when they stay behind Hanks's solid and wide background, and at the same time, Hanks's heroic posture in battle can stimulate the soldiers' desire to kill.
Gray's purpose in choosing to take the initiative is to boost the morale of the soldiers, he knows very well the current state of the orc troops, the opponent has just landed, and the continuous life on the ship has already greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of those heroic warriors.
Therefore, Gray chose Hanks as the commander of the vanguard in order to arouse the bloody fighting spirit of the soldiers, and at the same time appointed Knight Robert as an adjutant, which also favored the opponent's sophisticated command skills.
At this moment, the battle in the center of the battlefield has entered a stalemate, and after noticing the plight of his light infantry, Knight Hanks decisively switches places with Knight Robert, and he puts himself in the forefront position.
"Watch your step, follow my footsteps, don't mess up the formation. Knight Hanks shouted, the steel sword in his hand was already stained with blood, and he didn't know that the shield he picked up from there was torn, his gold-encrusted visor was covered in scarlet, and his eyes glowed bloodthirsty through the visor, "Follow in my footsteps, warriors, let us drink the blood of our enemies!"
"Kill!"
A roar of hot blood pierced through the air and reached the ears of the human soldiers in battle, who roared along with the Knights of Hansk.
On the battlefield, Hanks's battle flag was there, and the soldiers' footsteps subconsciously followed, the spears in their hands continued to pierce and harvest the lives of the orcs under the orders of the commander, and the shields were like waves that overturned the advancing orc warriors.
The advantage began to slowly tilt in favor of the human forces, and if the orcs could not effectively stop Hanks' attack, then it was only a matter of time before they lost this match.
Suddenly, there was a shout from the orc army that Hanks couldn't understand, and Hansk felt that it was dark in front of him, and he looked up to see an orc warrior who was two heads taller than him blocking his path.
At the same time, the giant axe in the opponent's hand had already stopped and slashed at him.
The instinct of battle allowed Hanks to subconsciously raise his shield to resist, but perhaps because the strength of this orc warrior was too huge, when the axe slashed on the shield, Hanks only heard a muffled sound of "plop", and casually felt that his entire left body seemed to be hammered by a heavy hammer, and then his expression was in a trance.
After a brief period of weightlessness, Hanks came to his senses, and the fierce murderous aura made his battle-hardened veteran's scalp tingle, and his eyes looked left and right through the blindfold of his visor, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
The orc just shot him away...
He was already surrounded by orc warriors at the moment!
His entire left hand was trembling from the blow just now, and he was afraid that he would not be able to use even one finger in a short time.
There was no time for Hanks to think about what to do, and the feeling of strong wind hitting him, he subconsciously rolled on the ground to dodge, and by the way, he cut the calf of an orc warrior with a steel sword.
But when Hanks stabilized his body, the attacks of the other orc warriors also arrived, and the axe slashed at his knight's armor, making a "clattering" sound, but it could not hurt him in the slightest, but instead caused him to injure several people in a row.
The orc squad commander said something Hanks didn't understand, and the nearby orc warriors shouted in dissatisfaction, and the commander roared, and then all the orc warriors dispersed, and after a few seconds they surrounded Hanks in the middle.
"Knight Hanks is surrounded by orcs!" The soldiers nearby saw that Knight Hanks was overturned to the ground by an orc, and in the blink of an eye, they were surrounded in the middle of the orcs, because their vision was blocked, and the soldiers only saw rows of axes falling towards where Hanks was.
"Don't mess up, keep in formation, forward!forward!forward!" the officer roared loudly, he had already killed the red eye, he had no idea what fear was, the soldiers were faithful to the execution of the orders issued by the officers, and they charged the orc front with fearless spirit.
The heroic battle of the Hanks knights paid off, and the soldiers desperately tried to rescue their commander.
However, the orc front commander was well aware of Hanks' value, and he gave a death order - to hold the line tightly.
After a few minutes, the human soldiers began to get anxious.
"Long live King Laubert!"
A human officer looked at the line that had not been attacked for a long time, ruthlessly handed the team flag to his deputy, and threw himself towards the orc's line with a roar, and at the same time, the spear in his hand was aimed at the throat of an orc.
"Poof!
The officer was cut off by the orc's tomahawk, and then chopped to pieces by the axes that followed, but at the same time the spear in his hand reaped the life of an orc warrior.
There was a brief gap in the orc's defense, but it was filled.
The human soldiers who fought in front witnessed all this, and when the officer's blood spilled all over the ground, the soldiers only felt that their eyes were infected with the blood on the ground, and an uncontrollable commotion in their hearts was about to erupt.
"Long live the kingdom of Laubert!"
The soldiers roared and chanted the name of their king to dispel the last vestiges of fear, and then they began to storm the orc line without dying.
The orcs were caught off guard by the tenacity and courage of the human soldiers, and even the old Kham general in the rear couldn't help but be shocked.
Under the frantic onslaught of the human soldiers, after a few minutes, they tore through the orc front and successfully rescued their commander, Knight Hanks.
Knight Robert had been watching what was happening on the battlefield, and when he saw Hanks being rescued, his hanging heart finally fell to the ground.
Robert glanced at the soldiers around him, and he saw in their eyes the flames that were burning.
"Brother Paoze, look at our feet, this is our land, the orcs shamelessly invade our land, kill our relatives and friends, brothers, for the sake of the fallen compatriots, in their name, forward!"
Robert roared, his voice piercing the dust of the Great War and reaching the ears of every human soldier.
"Forward!"
Suddenly, the human warriors roared like igniting oil, and rushed into the orc line with a desperate impact.
Gray, who was watching the battle from behind, kept an eye on the battlefield, and when he saw that his troops had gained the upper hand, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Where are the cavalry troops now?"
Rena responded: "Moving on our right flank, according to the information they have reported, in front of them, it is suspected that there are two large groups of orc shield-wielding warriors, which cannot be done in a short period of time if they want to support the frontal battlefield. ”
Gray frowned, "It seems that the orc commander is familiar with our combat methods. ”
"They have come prepared, my lord. Rena reminded.
"Don't worry about it yet!" Gray threw away all the thoughts in his mind, "Order the whole army, advance slowly!"
