Chapter 160: Soldiers Descend on the City

Because they gave up the territory north of Silver Pine Castle and had enough depth, when the Black Rock Orcs did not move further forward to the base camp, their wolf cavalry did not dare to run long distances to the front line of Silver Pine Fort for the time being, although the wolf of the Orcs was fierce, but this endurance was a little worse, and they did not dare to go too deep into the human side without backup.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Feng wants to establish a fortress defense line on the front line of Silver Pine Fort, according to the information provided by Shore, it will take fifteen or twenty days for the orc army to advance to the vicinity of Silver Pine Fort, which also leaves time for Lin Feng to build a fortress defense line, well, even if a large number of magic scrolls that "turn mud into stone" are used, it will take at least ten days to complete the construction of this defense line.

Teranya's "Puran Adventure Group" once again received a big task, after all, the level of the Dru's legal technique of "turning mud into stone" is not high, and the junior druids can learn and cast it, of course, the lower the level of the druid, the smaller the scope of the spell's influence, and the stone quality of this mud stone is much worse.

Let's put it this way, Tyranya can transform nearly 100 cubic meters of soil at a time, and the products after transformation are the hardest granite, but a junior druid, he can only transform less than five cubic meters of soil, and the transformation products are just ordinary stones.

However, it doesn't matter, if the quality is not good, the number and quantity will be piled up, anyway, those idle druids in the Druid Guild Branch of Golden Moon City have been recruited by Tyranya's "Puran Adventure Group".

In Lin Feng's words, "What can be done with gold coins is not a matter, not to mention that the gold coins hired by the druids this time are also evenly distributed to all the nobles of the noble council." "Well, a generous hand to others!

In the jingle of gold coins, it took only twelve days for a defensive barrier of fortresses centered on Silver Pine Fort to be built, and more than thirty small bastions were built on this defensive line, and in front of the bastions were three trenches of different depths but certainly wide enough.

This is also Lin Feng's idea, because there is no sea sand here, and the soil used to build the fort is all made of local materials.

Originally, Lin Feng still wanted to get barbed wire in front of the trench and sprinkle it with thistles or something, but those nobles in the noble council didn't agree this time, and they all slandered in their hearts, "Building this defense line will almost cost us all our gold coins, how stupid do we have to be to listen to you, and make those things with the steel that is urgently needed now?"

Indeed, after deciding on the defensive strategy, the coalition forces also began to change their outfits, longbows and crossbows, muskets and artillery became the most common weapons in the defense line, of course, in view of the amazing performance of the heavy cavalry in the small town of Spark, at the insistence of Lin Feng, the noble council also cobbled together a heavy cavalry corps of 3,000 people.

This legion is equipped with heavy armor even for men and horses, and the weapons of the soldiers are mainly heavy spears, "Thrust, thrust, as long as your war horse can still run, your tactic is only this, that is, keep stabbing at the enemy!" Lin Feng didn't have much time to train them, just let all the heavy cavalry remember his words.

Eighteen days have passed since the blockade of Spark's small town, and the "Seventh Column" has also brought back the last group of civilians they can find from north of Silverpine Fort, according to Shore's intelligence, the temporary base camp of the Black Rock Orcs with their army is not far from Silverpine Fort, and Lockland also reported to Lin Feng that traces of orc scouts have also been found near the trench at the forefront of the defense line, in a word, the big war is about to break out!

After another two days, an army of orcs appeared on the small plain in front of Silverpine Fort, and Crove Black Rock also observed the majestic fortress in front of him in the army, to be honest, he didn't want to attack the strong castle of humans at all, but, according to the scout's exploration, except for the small plain in front of this castle, the other places were dug by humans with deep and wide trenches, and there was no way to detour.

Croft also went to inspect it himself, but found that in addition to the trench mentioned by the scout, there were also some small fortresses on the opposite side of the trench, and if they wanted to fill the trench, they would inevitably be attacked by the human soldiers on the fort, and what was even more frustrating was that this trench was not one, but three!

If it weren't for the support of those people, Croft would definitely turn around and leave, anyway, he and his tribe have already plundered a lot of food and slaves from the humans, this meat is full, there is no need to gnaw hard bones again, even if he is willing, the warriors under his command are not reluctant.

However, Croft looked at the group of black-robed orcs mixed with his subordinates, "Well, where did these orc warlocks come from? In the history of our orcs, the profession of warlock has been lost for nearly 10,000 years! Legend has it that in order to gain power, they sacrificed their souls to the darkness. ”

"But why is there still a record in the clan that they are all heroes of the orc clan?'In ancient times, the orc tribe also relied on the power of warlocks to gain a foothold on the continent of Strand!' is there such a record, right?'It's been a long time since I've been to the tribe's record room to look through those 'storybooks', and I can't remember it clearly. ”

"As promised by the Ancient Pact, I will cooperate with you in attacking this castle, but if I can't take it in one go, I won't lose all the warriors of the Black Rock tribe here. Well, that's a fool's errand, we Black Rock Orcs don't have a tradition of giving up our strengths to die gnawing hard bones!"

Croft was riding on his wolf and thinking about it, but the black-robed orcs walked straight to the front of the castle.

When they walked out of the orc camp, Lin Feng, who was watching the orc formation from the tower of Silver Pine Castle, immediately noticed them, "Shadow Church?" he whispered these four words.

Because Lin Feng was very familiar with their dress, the prisoner who was still imprisoned in the cell on the ground floor of Silver Pine Castle was wearing the same black robe as the black robe worn by these orcs, "They actually belong to the same organization?"

This was very unexpected to Lin Feng, he originally thought that the "Shadow Church" was just an "evil god organization" within the Auron Empire, and its members were also composed of some humans who were dissatisfied with reality or could not tolerate the mainstream, but what did he see now? a group of orcs wearing the same black robes!

"It's really unexpected!This Shadow Church can actually allow races that hate each other to work together, and their power is even greater than I thought!" Lin Feng thought in his heart as he issued an order to Locklan to be on "supreme alert", and a big battle was about to break out!
