Chapter 283: Ambush
Xia Qi raised the binoculars in his hand and looked at the orc army that was slowly advancing, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a sneer.
Since receiving the report of the fox scout, in the past few days, Xia Qi has led the army under his command and waited here with ease.
At this time, the orc army, unbeknownst to the present, has been arranged clearly and is heading for a dead end.
Although the Lionman, Rhino and other classes are very fragrant, they are all powerful troops on the battlefield.
But now that both sides are still in a hostile relationship, it is better to wait for this war to be over.
Another point is that Xia Qi's adoption of orcs is not just based on strength.
At the end of the day, it's the human being who is what he is.
If an orc tribe is too brutal by nature to coexist with humans, and even causes harm to Great Xia, Xia Qi would rather slaughter this orc race.
Like the hyena man and the rat man.
The strength of the hyena people is not weak, at least much stronger than the fox and kobold clans, and some of the female orcs can be compared to werewolves.
But in the entire orc world, the hyena people are notorious because they are so brutal.
Another example, the nezumi.
Although the nezumi are very weak, they are numerous and good at digging holes, which is very suitable for mining minerals, but they carry countless viruses on their bodies.
Therefore, once these two orc races appeared in Great Xia, Xia Qi would not hesitate to order them to be slaughtered.
Although the main purpose of Great Xia is indeed to welcome orcs of all races.
But this "various ethnic groups" must be picked carefully.
After all, some orcs who are notorious in the orc world, even if Xia Qi doesn't accept them, no orc will say anything.
Also, some orc tribes may be enemies of another orc tribe.
Under such circumstances, Xia Qi needed to carefully consider whether these two orc clans had full value.
They must have distracted a powerful tribe of Great Xia for the sake of a dispensable orc tribe.
Just as Xia Qi was thinking this, the orc army in the distance had gradually stepped into their ambush location.
Jin Ming, the goblin king who returned to the goblin palace with a cat-man girl and announced in public that he would be crowned queen, after receiving Xia Qi's order, even if he was reluctant in his heart, he still rushed from the goblin king city to the Great Xia City, and after meeting with Xia Qi, he rushed to the front line of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.
Jin Ming's face was solemn, and after confirming the location of the orc army,
The whole state didn't seem very nervous.
After confirming the enemy's location again, Jin Ming immediately ordered: "Prioritize targeting those huge lion and rhinoceros people, and fire!" ”
With Jin Ming's order, as early as the discovery of the orc army, the eight-bull crossbow that had already been loaded opened fire instantly!
Heavy crossbow arrows roared out, and a wild boar man walking in front of the military formation didn't have time to react, and was pierced through his body by a heavy crossbow arrow on the spot.
With one hit, the goblin who operated the eight-bull crossbow and shot the crossbow arrows slapped the eight-bull crossbow in frustration.
Originally, he was aiming at a lionman, but he missed it.
However, there was more than this one, and some of the other heavy crossbow arrows shot successfully hit the target, while others also missed.
But in the face of such a dense
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
In the military formation, all the eight-bull crossbows did not miss.
The army of orcs who were attacked fell into panic in an instant.
Seeing this, the lion patriarch couldn't help but twitch his heart, and his body took two steps back uncontrollably.
The power of the heavy bolts on the other side was terrifying, as if it had been specially made to deal with them!
"There's an ambush ahead! Retreat, retreat quickly!! ”
With a loud roar, the orcs of all races began to flee desperately backwards.
However, Xia Qi had arranged so many days in advance, and if he wanted to retreat, he had to ask the army under his command if he agreed!
Thirty catapults hidden on either side, as well as a large number of red fox archers and goblin crossbowmen, were waiting for them.
In order to increase the area of the blow, all the boulders loaded on the catapult were replaced with small rocks the size of a softball.
The lion-man, the rhinoceros, the boar-man and other thick-skinned orcs are quite good, such as the jackals, who can break their heads and bleed with a single stone bullet, and even die on the spot.
Coupled with the fact that a large number of red fox archers and goblin crossbowmen spared no effort to fire with all their might, the original way of life was blocked by this rain of stone bullets and arrows in an instant!
Bursts of wails echoed in the orc army, looking at the scene in front of them, under the reminder of the fox scout, the group of elephants who deliberately left behind, felt a chill.
Worried about injuring them by mistake, this is really not a lie.
In the face of such furious long-range firepower, even if they are like a human race, they can withstand such a tribal blow.
After all, they are too large and have a wider range of hits.
Thirty eight-ox crossbows, thirty catapults, and two ranged units, the Red Fox Archer and the Goblin Crossbowmen, continued to output at full strength.
That scene can be described as quite spectacular.
Xia Qi took a panoramic view of the situation in the battlefield through the telescope.
I have to say that the vitality of this lion and rhinoceros is too tenacious.
In the case of avoiding the fatal point, although it can be hit hard, it cannot kill it with one hit.
At the same time, the heavy crossbow arrows he used to siege the city were still a little petite compared to these huge orcs.
On the other side, when he realized that the orc army had nowhere to go and had fallen into a desperate situation, the ferocity contained in his bones exploded instantly.
There was no need for those orc patriarchs to say anything more, in order to kill a way out, groups of orcs withstood the long-range firepower of Great Xia and slaughtered them like crazy.
Faced with such a scene, Xia Qi immediately issued an order.
"Blow the horn and let the melee troops meet it!"
"Whew-"
The high-pitched sound of the horn resounded throughout the battlefield, and the royal guards led by the bear, as well as the Minotaur infantry and the four elephants, who had long been ambushed around, fought out one after another at the same time as the horn sounded!
"Kill, !!"
The earth-shattering shouts of killing completely erupted on this battlefield!
This time, in order to pacify this orc alliance in the east, Xia Qi can be said to have hollowed out more than half of Great Xia's troops.
With the idea of deciding the outcome of a war, Xia Qi led a thousand human infantry under Li Chuan's command to break into the battlefield strongly!
The imperial flag was held high, and everywhere he went, the morale of the soldiers of Great Xia was greatly boosted.
There is an Eastern Expeditionary Army personally led by Xia Qi
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, can be described as a rainbow of morale.
The scales of victory are rapidly tipping in their favor!
At this moment, the advantages of the Eastern Expeditionary Army of Great Xia were undoubtedly revealed.
However, the five thousand orcs of the opposing orc alliance are not a small number, even if they have withstood several rounds of long-range firepower, the number of remaining troops is still very amazing.
In the next white-knuckle battle, for a while, it may be difficult for them to defeat the orc army that launched a madness.
At this moment, on the periphery of the battlefield.
Xiangyan, who looked at the internal situation, raised his head and roared, and then led the clansmen to rush towards the battlefield.
At this moment, it is also time for it to show its sincerity.
The appearance of this group of elephant men immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield.
The lion patriarch Shi Xin's heart was immediately filled with ecstasy, and he believed that with these elephant men, it would be enough to help it turn the tide of the battle, and then boost the morale of the orc army.
Just as it was thinking like this, it saw that the Immortal Gu Rock that was rushing to the front suddenly launched an attack, and with the ferocious force of the charging momentum, it actually knocked a lion man out on the spot!
This scene was so surprising that the lion man never imagined that he would be attacked by the elephant man, so he did not take any precautions.
The lion-man was knocked out nearly twenty meters away, and then fell heavily to the ground, it opened its mouth to say something, but the blood that kept gushing out of its mouth made it speechless.
Xiang Yan didn't mean to let it go at all, and directly raised his big foot and stepped on the lionman's body fiercely.
With the sound of bones shattering, the lion-man was finally dead.
The tragic death of the clansmen made Shi Xin almost crazy.
"What do you mean by that?!"
With a roar, Shi Xin headed straight for Elephant Rock!
Elephant Rock ignored this at all, and led his Elephant Man warriors to attack huge orcs like the Lion Man, the Rhino and the Boar Man.
The Elephant Terran has rebelled!!
Recalling all the previous things, Shi Xin's whole face can be said to be completely distorted!
The long-standing dissatisfaction with the Elephant Man, the anger of betrayal and the hatred of killing other people, all kinds of emotions quickly intertwined.
At this moment, Shi Xin's eyes were already full of killing intent.
It quickly gathered the surrounding people, formed a lion pack, and then frantically pounced on the elephant people in the distance.
Even if this war is finally lost, it will kill several elephant people to vent its anger!
In the orc world, the elephant people are undoubtedly at the top, and their huge size gives them too many advantages.
However, size is not everything, it is the way you fight that matters!
According to the tonnage of the lion, if you fight head-to-head with the elephant man, there will definitely be no chance of winning.
But the advantage of the lions is that they have more people and are more agile than the elephants!
And, don't forget, although the orcs have a "beast" in their name, they also have a "human" character, and they are not pure beasts.
The biggest difference between orcs and ordinary beasts is that they have a brain that is more intelligent than ordinary beasts, which allows them to know how to use their race to their advantage.
