What do the corpses of 200,000 orcs really look like?

Rog hovered in mid-air, looking out from the third layer of the fortress to the distance, in a line chasing the fleeing goblins, densely packed with troops.

Except for the second layer of the fortress defense line, there are several large circular vacuums, which are the traces of the fortress's self-explosion.

About half of the fortresses exploded, and of the remaining half, Rogge only saw the figure of the tired warrior in the three fortresses, and the rest was dead silent, which should have failed to detonate successfully.

There are a total of five layers of fortress defense in front of Fort Hofra, of which the third layer is the highest, and the fortress is the largest. This is designed to give the enemy more angles to shoot arrows and return fire when attacking, and maximize the advantage of defense.

This was the case with Fort Hofra's line, and Rogge estimated that the situation was similar for the entire Northwest Line.

In other words, the vanguard army of about one million of the Orc Alliance destroyed the first layer of fortresses and half of the second layer of fortresses of the northwest defense line, although almost all of them were wiped out, but in Rogge's opinion, in fact, the empire did not take much advantage.

Because the vanguard army, except for the elite troops of the black orcs who are used to inspire brutal killing, the others are cannon fodder, and it doesn't matter how many goblins die in large numbers.

It can be said that the purpose of the Orc Alliance has been achieved, and it is their consistent tactic in the war to consume as much of the Empire's living force as possible with cannon fodder.

Rogge can predict that the next few waves of attacks of the Orc Alliance will definitely be dominated by cannon fodder troops, and the main force of the Orc Alliance will not be seen until the defense line of the five-layer fortress outside the city wall is destroyed.

The short trumpet of "Woo Woo Woo ......" sounded in the sky, and the light cavalry units that pursued it retreated rapidly, and together with the soldiers who poured out of the fortress defense line, they hurried to clean up the battlefield.

At the head of the city, a battlefield inspector reported the first battle to Filia at a very high speed.

"Your Excellency, the call to collect the troops has been sounded, and the troops that have been pursued are withdrawing. The battle was as follows: "

"The vanguard army of the Orc Alliance has a total of 200,000 people in the defensive line of Fort Hofra, and there are about 50,000 troops who have fled, of which the goblins are the mainstay, and the rest are all annihilated."

"The fifty first-tier fortresses of the defense line were all destroyed, fourteen of the thirty second-tier fortresses activated the self-detonation magic array and were completely destroyed, and the remaining sixteen were damaged to varying degrees, but they could be repaired within five days."

"According to preliminary statistics, our army lost 13,000 killed and wounded 3,000. Judging from the battle loss ratio, it was a great victory. ”

"A big victory?" Filia withdrew her gaze from looking out of the city and stared at the Inspector, "The Orc Alliance is attacking the whole country, and it makes no sense to study the battle damage ratio, not to mention that this vanguard army is all old, weak, sick and disabled, and no matter how much you kill, you can't make the enemy hurt your muscles and bones." ”

"Don't compliment me in the future, just concentrate on counting the battle situation and do your own thing."

Filia was the supreme commander of Fort Hofra's defense, which was appointed by Matilda.

The reason why Matilda herself is not the commander-in-chief is because Thea reminded her in her first communication that the Great Chief of the Orc Alliance, "Hell Axe" Grull, personally led the vanguard army, and she, as a saint-level combat force, had to be defended.

This Ombudsman is an old fritter, having served many generals, and even spoke a few words to Emperor Charles.

Years of experience have taught him that if you say what generals like to hear, your future will be bright.

On the battlefield, who doesn't like to hear the word "great victory"? Not to mention, but judging by the data, this is true.

So he said it, and now he was stared at by Filia's beautiful eyes, and he only felt cold sweat all over his body, and his legs were trembling and about to go soft.

Such a beautiful girl, her eyes are so terrifying, people can't help but want to surrender to her.

This feeling has only been experienced by the Ombudsman in a few marshals and Emperor Charles himself, but how old is the commander? With such momentum, the future of the empire is worry-free.

If there is a future.

The Ombudsman wanted to think about it, but now that the commander was dissatisfied with him, he had to show his attitude.

The Ombudsman bowed deeply to almost ninety degrees, and said, "It's my dereliction of duty, then ......"

"Get up." Filia said, "Immediately increase the number of people to repair the remaining fortress on the second layer, and send an inspection team to find the reason why the self-detonation magic array was not activated." In two days, I want to see the results. ”

"Yes! But Commander, I'm afraid two days won't be enough. ”

"The exploding fortress is not completely blown into pieces, there are a lot of stones that can be used, move quickly, two days is enough." Filia paused, "It's just that we probably don't have two days." ”

As soon as Filia finished speaking, as if to verify her suspicions, a scout came rushing and half-knelt and said, "Report! An army of orcs was spotted one hundred and fifty kilometers away! ”

"Quantity?"

"I don't know, it's all the places I can see!" The Scout was in a state of apprehension.

"Sure enough, it came." Filia muttered, "One hundred and fifty kilometers...... If it's fast, it's a day. ”

The Ombudsman was also impressed by Philia's speculation, the five-day period he gave was extrapolated from previous experience, but now this battle is not ordinary, and experience may not be effective.

Filia closed her eyes and thought for a while, then ordered: "Continue to reconnoitre, focus on monitoring the speed of the orc army, and the number can be put aside for a while." ”

"Yes!" The Scout took the order.

"Inform the troops cleaning up the battlefield to pile up the corpses of orcs and goblins a hundred meters in front of the second layer of fortress defense and pour fire oil."

"What do you mean ......"

"Well, break one of our fortress defenses, just use their corpses to buy some more time." Filia handed out a token, "Take the token and go to Fort 30 behind the wall to find the Flame Troops, and let them participate in the restoration of the fortress, which will be completed in one day." ”

“…… Be. ”

The Ombudsman changed quickly, and he didn't ask for reasons but carried it out, and hurriedly left with the token.

Philia gave the order and glanced at the sky behind her, where the familiar figure was gone.

……

A few days ago, the Flame Force was transferred to Fort Hofra with the three major knights under the command of the Burning Sun, Red Flame, and Fire Feather, and became the main force of defense together with the Viper Knights.

Filia's older brother, Reinhardt, was on standby in the group of fortresses behind the city walls, and he would personally lead the army to attack at the command of his sister.

The father of the siblings, Marquis Brandon, was a valuable saint-level combat force who assisted Imperial Field Marshal Grand Duke Edrash in the defense of the Northern Front at Fort Hogaca.

The Flame Troops, who were ready to go, did not wait for their debut after co-ordination with the wolfspiders, but waited for the order to let them repair the fortress, and had no choice but to let the big spiders take off their armor.

Before leaving, Bella said to the inspector who was shocked by the pestle: "Go and tell the eldest lady...... No, Commander, the Flame Force will be able to complete the mission, and in a day the fort will be repaired. ”

"Fifth prince, let's go."

"It's here, Sister Bella!" The fifth prince, Chakra, rubbed shoulders with the Inspector.

The Ombudsman finally came to his senses, what happened to these giant spiders? When did the empire have such a powerful behemoth?

He finally realized that the orc alliance did not use the main force, and the main force of the empire was not activated, but the sacrifice of the empire was real warriors, not cannon fodder.

No wonder the commander said that the fort would be repaired in one day, and there was indeed hope for these big guys to help carry the stones!

…… m.ýanbkj.ćőm

The Orc Alliance also understood that a tired army would be defeated, so they advanced this one hundred and fifty kilometers for two and a half days.

By the time the army came to the northwest defense line, the remaining forts of the second layer of the fort defense line had been repaired, and even the location of the exploding fort had been covered with a few smaller ones with excess stone.

But the orcs didn't care so much, now was the time when the army was at its most imposing and in the best condition, the drums of war were beating, and the vanguard began to charge.

However, the rockets fired from the second layer of the fortress shattered the orc's plan in one fell swoop.

Although the corpses of cannon fodder orcs and goblins do not have much fat on them and are not very good fuel, there is a large amount of fire oil, and the fire is extremely strong.

Under the fiery red sky, the raging flames became an impassable barrier, burning the "enthusiasm" of the orcs.

The roars and roars of the orcs were accompanied by the "crackling" sound of the fire burning, only to be answered by the boulder fired by the trebuchet.

Although the second vanguard of the Orc Alliance is also cannon fodder, being stoned to death is not a good choice, and the cannon fodder also has to die meaningfully.

So the orc army was forced to withdraw from the range of the trebuchet and wait for the flames to disappear.

The fire was fierce, and the corpses of hundreds of thousands of orcs burned for only one afternoon, and as the flames were extinguished, darkness enveloped the battlefield.

The roar of the orcs rang out again, and the light reappeared as a large number of flares rose into the air.

I saw that the black oppressive orc army rushed over, and it was still the elite black orc troops who were at the head.

They rushed past the corpses of the First Vanguard, which had just been reduced to ashes, and rushed past the first layer of the fortress group defense that had been reduced to ruins a few days earlier, and they were about to rush to the second layer of the fortress group defense.

"Boom!" The earth fell again.

In front of the second layer of fortress group defenses, newly dug banded traps came into play.

This time, Philia did not choose to wait for the orcs to rush through the trap before triggering the splitting of them, but triggered it when the black orc troops stepped on the trap, in order to eliminate the elite in advance.

Without the Black Orcs taking the lead in the charge, it will be difficult for the remaining cannon fodder troops to inspire a brutal killing state, and without the cannon fodder for brutal killing, it is really just cannon fodder.

The strength of the black orcs is still very strong, and most of them are still alive in the trap five or six meters deep full of spikes, and they have begun to climb out.

But Felia wouldn't give them a chance, and the trebuchet adjusted its angle, and the boulder roared out, staring at the trap and slamming it.

Her purpose is very clear, that is, to wipe out the black orc elite, and she did it, and the black orc elite turned into pulp in the trap.

The orc army paused visibly, only to recover to its normal state at the roar of the orc overseers, brandishing the inferior weapons in their hands and continuing to charge.

The boulders fired by the trebuchets not only killed the elite of the black orcs, but also filled the traps, which was equivalent to paving the way for the rest of the orcs.

But what the orc army didn't know was that Filia had paved them with a Yellow Springs Road and built a bridge over the Nai River.
