Ever since Ryan woke up from his slumber. The morale of the human army was restored after retreating, especially the warriors who fought under Ryan on the night when the orcs conquered Thor's Fortress, and after experiencing the test of life and death, they have greatly improved both in experience and psychology, and have become real elites.

General Jonas had been in the army for nearly twenty years and was very experienced in this area, and after consulting with Lane, he used these surviving elites as the backbone to reorganize his collected defeated troops into a new legion. Speaking of which, the only one still alive among the many high-ranking officers in Thor's Fortress is General Jonas. General Kissernst, who was originally from an aristocratic background, because General Jonas was born in the south and was still a civilian, suppressed Jonas and his subordinates a lot, only giving a lack of recruits in terms of troops, and it was far inferior to the Clark Legion, which was born in the imperial capital at the same time.

Unfortunately, the world is unpredictable, and now among the senior officers in the retired army of Thor's Fortress, Jonas is the only one, and according to the laws of the Empire, he has become the supreme commander of Thor's Fortress until His Majesty the Emperor issues a new appointment. But now that Fernando XIII has been killed, it seems that Jonas will be in this position for a long time to come.

However, Jonas will first ask Ryan for advice on everything, because in name Jonas is the commander of this legion composed of routs, but in fact, the spiritual leader of most of these tens of thousands of soldiers is Ryan, that night, Ryan's crazy killing of the enemy has spread throughout the fleet, and even Androkos, who is a magister, said in private: "Ryan is not a human, he is a pervert! Release hundreds of fireball spells in one night, and then only rest for two days and then be alive again, is there still Tianli?" I'm still lying down obediently in the carriage now! I will no longer call the God of Wisdom on top, but Ryan on it. ”

Although the last sentence of this sentence is just a joke, it also confirms Ryan's strength even more. In the army, what qualifications, background, background, identity, are meaningless things, soldiers care about officers who can lead them to defeat the enemy and save their lives, not a waste with noble blood and a resounding reputation but even eat defeats, Ryan single-handedly wiped out more than 5,000 orcs, and also led human warriors to win more with less many times, breaking the convention that humans must use several times the military strength to win against orcs on the plains, what is more convincing than this?

At noon the day after Ryan woke up, the orc's pursuers appeared in the scout's field of vision, but to everyone's surprise, there were only 5,000 of them. The human army simply let the wagons and civilians full of food go first, leaving the main force in place, and set up a position to wait quietly for these pursuers.

Two hours later, the orc pursuers appeared in front of the human phalanx. Jonas sat on his war horse, looked at the orc army that came from the dust, and couldn't help but scold: "That's all, you look down on us too much, right?" Indeed, there are only 5,000 orc chasers, and their equipment is also uneven, some have bronze weapons, some have iron weapons, some have ** on their bodies, and some actually wear the standard armor of human infantry. The entire orc pursuers didn't have any formation, so they caught up in a hurry, and then rushed towards the human phalanx that was waiting for them.

"General, give the order!" General Jonas's men couldn't help but beg for battle: "Beat them well, and let the brothers vent their evil anger!"

Jonas looked at Ryan beside him, who was riding on a docile warhorse without saying a word, and his face was very calm, not at all like a warrior waiting to be killed on the battlefield. Jonas thought for a moment and gave the order: "The infantry phalanx will defend on the spot, and the cavalry commander will go around the right side to the flank of the orcs and wait for the order to charge." ”

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and 10,000 unarmored cavalry, under the leadership of their commander, broke away from the main phalanx and circled an arc to the right side of the human position to standby, while the orc pursuers, who were far inferior to humans in numbers, actually had no countermeasures, and still ran with all their strength in chaos.

"Damn green-skinned bastards!" Colin scolded sharply behind Ryan's back, and he and Thomas each got a war horse to ride because they were Ryan's right-hand men.

Thomas said: "Yes, these barbarian guys have no military common sense at all, our army obviously put on an attack formation, they actually didn't care, and they just ran head-on." ”

"Don't be careless!" Jonas suddenly spoke: "Orcs are inferior to us in these aspects, but their advantages are also obvious, that is, the combat power of a single body, whether it is strength or ferocity in battle, is not comparable to us humans. In fact, for them, fighting is to charge closer, and then desperately, kill all the enemies or be killed themselves. ”

Colin and Thomas were speechless for a while, and Jonas was speechless for them, and by this time, the human cavalry force had reached its designated position and was ready to attack.

Jonas narrowed his eyes, he still couldn't understand what the intention of these orc pursuers was, but after he learned the traces of this group of pursuers, he sent scouts one after another to search all over a radius of dozens of kilometers, and there was no trace of the second orc army at all. Jonas hesitated, and decided to fight back on the spot, he couldn't let the 5,000 orcs drive his party back to the imperial capital like this, right?

Jonas looked at the orc soldiers who were getting closer and closer, and calculated the best time to attack in his heart, after all, these 10,000 cavalry were not armored, although they would run faster, but they had almost no defense, and once they fell into a bitter battle, they would be in trouble. Seeing that the orcs who rushed to the front were less than 50 meters away from the humans, Jonas immediately said: "Infantry phalanx, raise your gun!"

More than a dozen heralds immediately raised the command flag, urged the horses to run, and loudly passed Jonas's order, and the ten thousand human infantry raised their spears in unison, aiming their sharp blades at the rushing orcs. In front of these 15,000 spear warriors, there are 5,000 warriors with shields and swords, they put their shields tightly against their left shoulders, and then slightly sideways, facing the front of the shield against the orcs, they can resist the attacks of the orcs at any time, these 5,000 sword and shield warriors will become the first line of defense of the human phalanx, winning valuable time for their comrades behind them.

After a short period of rest, these human warriors were in a much stronger mental state than when they had just been defeated, especially those veterans who survived kept telling them that when forming a phalanx against the orcs, they must not waver in any way, and those who do not want to die and run away must die the fastest, because he has lost the support of his comrades. And as long as you stand firmly in the phalanx and hand over your back and flanks to your comrades, you don't have to be afraid of the attack of the orcs. Although the orcs are very strong in combat, the human gun array is not inferior to them, and these veterans can temporarily form a phalanx with 3,000 defeated soldiers to kill more than 7,000 elite orc warriors, which is the best proof.

Therefore, the spear formations of human warriors are all standing firmly in place, they are far outnumbered by the enemy, and with the Ryan mage behind them, even if the situation is critical, as long as Ryan makes a move, everything can be solved. With such a thought in their hearts, all human warriors are naturally fearless. Equally fearless were the orcs, who had been running with all their might from a few hundred meters away, and just as that crashed headlong into a phalanx of 20,000 human warriors.

"Bang!" A dull impact sound came, and the orc warriors crashed into the shields of the human sword and shield warriors standing in the first row of the phalanx, and the huge impact force hit these human sword and shield warriors back again and again, but behind these human sword and shield warriors, those warriors with spears had already lowered their 3-meter-long spears and aimed them at the orcs, and these orcs who hit the shield were all pierced by the sharp spears without exception.

"Huh!" The spearmen standing in the third row of the phalanx stabbed out the spears in their hands without hesitation, while the spearmen standing in the second row withdrew their spears very tacitly. When the spears of the third row of warriors were stabbed to the limit, the spearmen standing in the fourth and last row also stabbed their spears with all their might, and at the same time, the warriors of the third row also began to collect their spears.

It's a lot to say, but these human warriors have at least half a year of similar training, and as long as the captain of the team shouts the slogan, they will make corresponding movements in unison. In this way, stabbing out, retracting, stabbing and retracting again and again, regardless of whether the spear hits the target or not, and whether there is an enemy in front of them, all these human warriors need to do is a few standard movements that they usually practice to be familiar with.

And the orc warriors did not have a neat attack formation at all, and they could not cause continuous pressure on the spear formation composed of human warriors, and sometimes, a few strong orcs hacked to death the sword and shield warriors in front of them and rushed into the human phalanx, but there were no companions behind him to come up to support. These orcs who broke through the phalanx were only able to cause a little local chaos, and then they were killed under the siege of the superior forces of the human race.

Jonas looked behind him and shook his head, what the hell were these orcs thinking, did they deliberately run over to send them to death. But after all, Jonas has not been careless, even if the humans have an absolute advantage, he still keeps sending scouts to reconnoiter everywhere, but he still can't find any traces of other orcs within dozens of kilometers around here.

Soon, the battle was coming to an end, and the remaining hundreds of orcs no longer charged forward, but turned and ran, and the human infantry phalanx did not pursue without being ordered, but Jonas gave the order for the cavalry to charge. 10,000 cavalry lined up in a charging formation and rolled over the hundreds of fleeing orcs without mercy, leaving only a bloody place. The battle ended in just ten minutes, and the human race only paid the price of dozens of soldiers killed and more than 100 injured to annihilate the 5,000 orc pursuers, and won a rare victory.
