Boom rumble~

The plains on the outskirts of Arabelle are ideal for both sides, and the vast expanse of open ground around the city is preferred by the human coalition, which means they don't need to entangle with the orcs in the forest, and Millman-Lauer's carefully prepared heavy cavalry has room to charge, allowing wizards to cast spells on a large scale.

Tukin also liked the terrain, the open space meant that the Orc god Bagru blessed the Goth Beast Riders could easily gallop through the clearing, and the Troll Brigade, the Giant Legion and the tall ogre legions would not be overwhelmed by the difficult terrain.

Therefore, as the coach, Ms. Raul and Tujin Khan both tacitly chose the open space on the outskirts of the city, set up a position, and prepared for a big battle.

On the human alliance, Ms. Raul arranged the human army as follows:

She placed her most elite 3,000 headquarters troops on the left flank, among which the Falcon Legion and the Phoenix Legion under her personal command were listed at the rear of the left flank, which was conducive to avoiding the most ferocious surprise attacks of the orcs, and the mage regiment led by the eldest lady was under the protection of the Phoenix Legion, and the mages led by Charlotte were ready for battle.

On the outermost side of the left flank were 500 heavy cavalry, and Aaron's contemporaries, such as Havre, the son of the Minister of Shipping, Norrington, who had been killed by the orcs, and other purple dragon knights were also inside, ready to charge at any time.

3,000 people, including Aaron, Eleanor, Renard, Disma, Samir, and even the Son of Bane, were placed on the right flank, which consisted of a large number of religious armies, armies of other nobles in the kingdom, and a small number of Cormier natives who spontaneously came to the war, as well as organizations invited by Lady Raul to participate in the war, such as the verdant Druyin, the wizarding group of Abi Gale from Waterdeep, and so on.

The number of troops on the right flank was slightly inferior to that of the left flank, but the quality of the individual troops was not bad at all.

The commander of the right flank was Archbaron Damon, the master of dueling with two swords.

The left and right flanks formed the rear army, but the central army in front was composed of about 1,000 untrusted outsiders, aliens, scattered adventurers and mercenaries from all over the country.

At the head of the list was the orc sword saint Doherty, who and his team of orcs were at the forefront.

Obviously, this group of orcs is the least trusted.

In the army formation on the right flank, Aaron held Eleanor's trembling little hand, and he could feel Miss Reverend's nervousness: "Is it the first time to go to war?" My dear? ”

"Hmm...... Isn't it the first time for you? Eleanor pursed her lips slightly, she glanced at the surrounding paladins, the priest of the church with a heavy hammer, the heavily armed guards, and Druyin, who was already preparing to transform, and looked a little nervous: "Aaron, wait and follow me, otherwise I won't be able to give you the magic on time." ”

"Also, don't rush around just relying on dragon skin armor!" Eleanor then commanded, "Beware of the ogre's stick! ”

"Be careful, although there are not many shamans among the orcs, you still have to be careful with magic."

Miss Reverend was so broken that Aaron didn't respond to her and threatened to knock him.

Aaron responded gently before adding, "Anything else?" ”

Eleanor had nothing to say, she only looked deeply at Aaron again: "What about you, don't you have anything to say to me?" ”

"Wait to be my baroness, Eleanor." Aaron said seriously: "When this battle is over, we will go back to Susar......"

"Shut up! Aaron, shut up! Eleanor was ashamed and annoyed, and felt that it was very unlucky to say such things before the war, and she quickly motioned to Aaron to shut up: "Instead of having time to talk here, let's pray to our lord one last time." ”

With that, Eleanor also ignored Aaron, and she began to pray, one last time.

And Aaron also began to pray, but not to the Virgin of Silver, Suren, but ......

"The road to the throne can only be paved with blood, and I will choose it myself." A terrifying voice whispered in his ear: "Kill them, kill that group of orcs, kill them, destroy this group of humans, I will use ten thousand skulls to pile up a Jingguan here, Scarbrand is ready, what about you?" Aaron? ”

Aaron was silent.

If the throne to the Throne of Cruelty had to be paved with blood and a head, then do it!

"Winter~Winter~Winter~"

The sound of orc war drums could already be heard in the distance, and the orc Great Khan Tujin of Arabel only shouted a few words in the direction of the humans.

"Human!"

"Look at this battle flag! Look ahead! This is the battle banner of our Bone Spear Tribe! ”

"Arabel? No, this place has never been your human domain, and the orcs were already the masters of this territory when you begged the pointy-eared bastards like house slaves to give you a way to live, us? Since ancient times! ”

"Who cares, though? It's fair, in the name of our gods, let the battle decide who owns the land! ”

"If you come to fight, I will fight!" Tukin lifted his bone spear and pointed it straight to the sky: "Geush!

! ”

The orcs echoed like a tsunami of mountains and mountains, and everyone's scalps tingled.

The desolate and wild war drums sounded, and the orc drummers began to vigorously hammer the war drums made of Mengqi skin, without giving humans any time to react, hundreds of orc war pig riders had already come out, and the big black fur boar rode on the beast high pig, holding a spear, and a row of feathered wings behind them, and they launched a charge directly on the battlefield.

Hundreds of pigs rushed into battle, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

The strong black-haired boar trotters stepped on the ground, followed by a hundred war pig riders to charge a large group of orcs and soldiers, from goblins to goblins to bear goblins to jackals and kobolds, these orc slaves followed the war pig riders in a chaotic chaos to charge together, many Hu servants also followed behind the war pig riders like crazy, but more Hu servants had to advance.

Because the orc warlords lined up in a row, followed behind with sharp axes in hand, ready to eliminate the deserters at any time.

Exactly the same, on the side of the human coalition army, the ragtag army in the front was also ready to fight, as the war pigs rushed in, there were constantly screams in the front, and the wild boar riders smashed their shields, smashed the gun array, and went straight through the line, without making any stops, and rushed directly towards the main human army on the left and right flanks.

Hu subordinate against miscellaneous cards, ace against trump card, Tujin asked the goblins and goblins in Hu Cong's army to deal with the miscellaneous army that was also ranked at the forefront by Raul.

Aaron saw the half-orc Doherty flip the boar rider from bottom to top with a knife, cutting it into two ends, causing the surrounding people to let out a "oh oh oh" shout, while the shield formation formed by several mercenaries from Amm around was directly shattered, two people broke bones, fell to the ground, and were hit by the gnoll who followed behind with a few swings of the flail and smashed their heads, killing them on the spot.

"Crossbowman, prepare!"

Archbaron Damon began to give orders, his fierce voice was so indisobedient, and with his command, a group of temple guards came out with heavy crossbows and bows, and they lined up in two rows and began to load.

After all, the war in the kingdom is still different from that of the Middle Ages, the professional should be better equipped, the armor should be thicker and not affect the action too much, and the heavy crossbow and big bow in his hand In many times, in Aaron's previous life, only the famous strong man could reload, but here, the rows of professionals effortlessly reloaded the arrows and crossbows.

"Spear formation, prepare!"

Armed with large shields, soldiers from Baldur's Gate and the major churches embedded the half-man-high shields deep into the earth, and they held their shields diagonally and raised their spears, and the soldiers behind followed them, and the large shields were stacked on top of each other, forming an impenetrable wall.

"Mage Regiment of Waterdeep, prepare!"

Abigail and other wizards of Waterdeep City responded one after another, they first blessed themselves with various shield spells, no one planned to release plastic energy magic or direct damage magic, and the spellcasters who participated in the war knew very well that the first enemy to rush over was to consume their mana and spell slots.

"Priest~" Archbaron Damon finally focused on Eleanor and the others, and Miss Priest, along with the other priests, cast spells on the surrounding professionals.

"Calm down!"

"Blessing Technique!"

"Aid!"

"Enhanced attributes - the strength of the ox, the tenacity of the bear!"

Shrouded in white light, the priests were offering their strength for this war, and the paladins were not far behind, they sang hymns under the leadership of Renard, and the divine power from the depths of the multiverse gradually made the blood in everyone's body start to burn, and they were ready to fight.

"Winter~Winter~Winter~" The orc boar riders who rushed through the first array are getting closer and closer.

"Ready~" Archbaron Damon was almost broken: "Launch!" ”

"Greasy Surgery~"

"Cobweb~"

"Human Immobilization!"

The mages began to cast their magic, and large greasy areas appeared on the ground, on which the boar riders stepped on it, and their bodies began to slide forward uncontrollably.

But the boar plus the orc rider is just too heavy! The slightest slip didn't make them fall at all, on the contrary, many boar riders simply followed the oil stains under their feet and slid all the way to the line.

The mages then unleashed the human immobilization technique and the spider web technique, and the crossbowmen and longbowmen took advantage of the situation to release their arrows, and the arrows and crossbows flew out, and the three boar riders who rushed to the front fell directly into the greasy with the orcs and pigs, and the kobolds and gnolls who followed them fell in pieces.

But this was only a minor setback for the orc riders, and more enemies came.

After three rounds of continuous firing, the hoplites put away their ranged weapons and retreated into the shield, leaving only a small number of light infantry to continue firing from the flanks, and the rest of the heavy infantry were all included in the shield.

"Dongdong ~ Dongdong ~ Dongdong ~"

There were also more than twenty boar riders who crossed all the obstacles, with arrows stuck in their bodies and lost crossbows, from boar riders to hedgehog riders, each orc shouted the name of the god of Geush, not only did the injury not make them feel pain, on the contrary, the orcs went berserk, and the wild boars fell into madness, they resisted long-range attacks, and went straight to the shield wall of the human alliance!

"Peng!"

The first wild boar slammed into the shield wall with the power of a furious charge, its skull and the sturdy iron-clad shield came into direct contact, making a heavy sound, and three of the human soldiers standing behind the shield array were broken on the spot, and five were knocked down by this huge force, and there was a hole in the entire shield array suddenly, and then two, three, four, many loopholes!

"Steady! Steady! Archbaron Damon roared.

Before there was time to repair the loopholes in these shield arrays, an overwhelming orc battle cry sounded in the smoke and dust caused by the wild boar, and rows of orc warriors with large axes followed the gap that the wild boar rider had smashed.

The situation was thrown into chaos.

Only one area about twenty meters wide remained stable on the entire shield wall of the right flank of the human alliance, and the three boar riders crashed into the shield wall, but unlike other boar riders, this shield wall seemed to be three points harder than steel, and the three black-haired boars hit their heads on the shield and their heads were broken, and their heads were cracked, but only one mark was left on the shield.

The orc rider fell off his mount, several spears sticking out of the shield wall, and stabbed them to death in the blink of an eye through the armor.

Blood splattered and stained the ground.

Behind this shield wall stood none other than Aaron Salion, the Child of Chaos, who held up his hand surrounded by the wind of metal, and around him, all the soldiers' armor materials had mutated, becoming stronger, yet lighter, shrouded in a golden hue, dyed with the enchanting eight-pointed star insignia, and everyone became the holy warriors of the golden helmet.

The news of a powerful spellcaster's blessing in the team quickly spread, and everyone's attention was focused on Aaron.

"It's Lord Salian, I know him!"

"He's a warlock, that's great!"

"He's not with those knights, Salian is by our side, fighting side by side with us!"

"Armor, armor has become lighter, more rigid."

"Oh my God, mine swear by Aunt Susan's boots next door, it's the strongest shield and spear I've ever used."

Within twenty-five meters of Aaron, all the soldiers of the Human Alliance were blessed with his power.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Aaron said coldly.

"Yes!" The soldiers were shocked, and hundreds of orc soldiers with tomahawks in their hands had already charged, and they waved their tomahawks vigorously, and with the help of the inertia of their bodies and the strength of their whole bodies, they smashed their heads towards the shield wall in front of them!

Clang!

More than the orcs expected.

Axe, axe broken?!

The sound of continuous blocking sounded, and the heavy infantry in the first row took a step back, steadily holding off the orc attack.

Aaron deftly charged his sword, and the moonlight of the Sword of the Dark Moon slashed through the neck of an orc warrior, and the hot blood rushed out and splashed on him, making it a pleasurable sight.

The white-knuckle battle has begun.
