Chapter 152: Invasion of the Xiling Empire (Ask for Recommendation Votes, Ask for Monthly Tickets)

The border between the Hilling and Lacey empires was a large river called "Imos", which also passed through the Carter, Aegean and Valoran empires, and finally flowed into the ocean.

On the river, there were originally two bridges, but when the Lacey Empire and the Xiling Empire were at war, they were blown up by the Xiling Empire.

Use alchemy magic bombs, the kind that explodes to pieces.

The river is very wide, the average width is about 100 meters in Lilliputia, and the depth is immeasurable.

Today, the river is the best barrier against orcs invading Carter's territory.

There was very little precipitation on the plains where the orcs had lived for a long time, and there was no way to cross the river, which is why Murphy did not seem to be in a hurry to return to his country when he learned that the orc army was attacking his country.

But he really miscalculated this time.

Since Rice had suggested this attack, he would not blindly let the army run in vain.

This army of more than 15 million half-orcs is composed of many races, the largest of which is the hyena people, reaching more than 10 million, followed by the mountain boar people, more than 4 million, then 500,000 leopard heads, 200,000 sheep heads, and finally 30,000 black armored lizardmen.

The key lies in these 30,000 black-armored lizardmen.

As a race secretly cultivated by the Orc Empire for many years, their main mission is to breach the Great Wall, but they also serve other purposes.

That is to cross the river.

Black-armored lizardmen have earth-based magic, or rock-based magic to be exact.

Thirty thousand people used magic to quickly build a stone bridge over the river, which grew and became solid until it reached more than twenty meters wide, forming an arc and erecting over the river.

The entire bridge was made into a single piece by rock-based magic, and it was definitely strong enough for an army of orcs to run wildly.

The defenders of the Xiling Empire, who were originally on the other side of the river, sitting in Poz City, immediately panicked.

Fortunately, as a battle-hardened general, Daros, the current lord of Potts City and the commander of the 200,000 defenders, immediately made arrangements.

First of all, send someone to ask for help, and urgently report the matter to the upper echelons of the empire; Then the nearby residents were notified to evacuate urgently, and at the same time, 100,000 people were dispatched to set up the defensive line as much as possible.

Another 100,000 people, heading in the direction of the Great River, destroyed the bridge at all costs.

General Daros's spirit was given high praise, but this arrangement did not make much difference.

With only 200,000 people, fighting with pure cold weapons, it is absolutely delusional to want to do this in front of 15 million people when the quality of the individual soldiers of the enemy and the enemy is about the same.

The only thing I could do was to send someone for help.

Thankfully, because of Claire's exterminating massacre of this area before, there are not many inhabitants here, so the Xiling Empire still has time to react, but it doesn't have the advantageous terrain like the Imos River.

The Orc Legion crossed the Great River of Imos, leaving behind three bridges built using magic.

In order to build these three bridges, the 30,000 black-armored lizardmen were too tired to keep up with the pace of the large army, so they were abandoned to the end of the group, and even left behind.

Orcs don't protect a group of people who are no longer useful, these black-armored lizardmen are worthless now, at least the commander of this army, the leopard-headed man Mu Sang thinks.

Shortly after the orc army crossed the bridge, the Red Fire Ant Legion also climbed over the bridge.

To be honest, although this river is not wide for Han Dong, and it can be crossed in one step, it is indeed a big trouble for this group of red fire ants.

A number of red fire ants formed ant balls and forcibly crossed the river, and I am afraid that they would lose at least a tenth of their population.

There will only be more, not less.

Water is the Achilles' heel of red fire ants.

But fortunately, the orc legion was very understanding and built three bridges.

On the side of the Xiling Empire, after receiving the news of the orc invasion, they quickly organized a large army.

As an old empire, the heritage is still there, although most of the elites have been sent, but with the existing army as the backbone, it is still possible to recruit millions of people in a short period of time.

It's just that combat effectiveness cannot be guaranteed.

It's good enough that three people can replace a half-orc.

At this time, a total of 600 magic energy artillery trucks traded with the Carter Kingdom had not yet arrived in the imperial capital of the Xiling Empire, and were directly sent to the "Valen City", where the army was also going to set up a defensive line.

Valen City is the largest city in the hinterland of the Lacey Empire from the direction of the Lacey Empire, and it was here that it fought against the Lacey Empire.

This is the final bottom line of the Xiling Empire, no matter what army or anyone can attack this line of defense.

After the army was dispatched, the Xiling Empire continued to recruit troops while asking for assistance from the surrounding countries.

Han Dong sent two "Warcraft Shooting Teams" to follow the magic energy cannon truck and the red fire ants to shoot respectively, and by the way, he also took pictures of the terrain and cultural features around the Xiling Empire.

Not long after the magic energy cannon truck entered Valen City, he saw the orc army rushing from a distance.

These guys also rest at night, but when they march during the day, they are very fast. Sometimes they run in a hurry, and they will run with their hands and feet.

This is when their true nature is most revealed.

Walking on two legs looks like a human, but in fact, he is still a beast in his bones.

The Hilling Empire has not yet built a Light Tower, which means that once the energy in the artillery carriage runs out, even if there are cannonballs, it will be useless.

Therefore, the goblin general Eivar, who was in charge of this artillery unit in the Xiling Empire, attached great importance to the timing of the cannon, and waited until the orc army had reached an optimal firing range before ordering the cannon.

These artillerymen are goblins.

Although they had only studied in Carter's Kingdom for an hour, they had mastered the art with the help of the Memory Seals and their unique talents.

The intensive bombardment formed by 600 artillery carriages directly caused the orc legion to lose more than 100,000 people.

This casualty is not large for fifteen million orcs, but the deterrent power is definitely full.

Even if the ninth-order magic god releases range damage ninth-order magic, the number of effective kills reaches twenty or thirty thousand at a time, which is already very good.

This wave of explosions took away more than 150,000 orcs, and the fear effect was very strong.

Eibar is trying to create such an effect, suppressing the arrogance of the other side on the one hand, and increasing our momentum on the other.

The opportunity must not be thrown away and the shelling continues.

Four rounds of artillery bombardment directly killed more than 700,000 orcs, and the dense artillery fire temporarily stopped the pace of its army.

Eibar knew that it would be difficult to scare the orcs away with the power of artillery, but he still wanted to get into the other party's mentality, in case he succeeded!

So, when he found that the opponent had stopped advancing, he asked his subordinates to pause the firing and wait for them to attack again.
