Chapter 519: The Battle of Star Lake (20, General Attack)
,
In the loud sound of the horn of the Emperor ** Regiment, the Emperor ** Regiment launched the final general attack.
The magicians of the Empire flew in mid-air, using their magic to puff up gusts of wind, and under the strong wind, the fire burned more and more fiercely, like a hideous and bloodthirsty dragon, roaring, roaring, and swooping down on the orcs.
The originally green meadow suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
The billowing smoke obscured the sky, and even the scorching sun that reigned over the world had dimmed.
At this time, I finally saw the effect of the high-altitude balloon command.
Because it is high above the ground and has an unobstructed view of the entire battlefield, it can not only carry out real-time battlefield monitoring, accurately perceive the enemy's movements at all times, know the movement of their troops, and provide detailed and accurate information to the commander.
And condescendingly, you can also communicate with your own legions in every corner in real time at any time.
Even though the troops of the Imperial ** Regiment are now scattered, it can be easily mobilized through its signal transmission.
Orders flowed like water.
All the troops had received their orders at the same time and were immediately up to action.
The Imperial cavalry, which was acting as a reserve, all rushed out on horseback.
The rumbling sound of iron hooves was earth-shattering.
Due to the sea of fire in front of them, they did not rush straight to the main force of the half-orcs, but attacked at the same time in all directions on the prairie!
Lorraine relied on the high-altitude balloon he owned as a command platform, and at this time, he actually chose to divide his troops!
In order to be able to end the battle as soon as possible, he did not gather the cavalry together and clench them into a huge fist, but divided into four lanes and attacked at the same time.
This is also Lorraine's absolute confidence in her technological superiority. If you were someone else, even if the god of war was reborn, she would not dare to make such a bold move on the battlefield.
Because the shape of the battlefield is changing rapidly, if there is no clear and clear command platform, once the troops are dispersed, when the soldiers enter the chaotic battle, the order will definitely not be transmitted smoothly, and the soldiers will not be able to find the generals, and the situation of not being able to find the soldiers will often occur.
In this way, it will be difficult for them to gather again.
Once the enemy strikes again at this time, it is impossible for them to react.
But Lorraine, with her own high-altitude command platform, has no such worries. As long as he gives an order, it can be transmitted to the bottom in a very short time. It is truly possible to gather and scatter at will, such as fingers.
At this time, an order was given, and the cavalry corps was divided into four groups.
They galloped like unsheathed gentlemen's swords, and struck at the back of a half-orc blocking force on the outskirts of the battlefield, extremely insidious and vicious.
The artillerymen, regardless of their fatigue, put their guns on their mules and horses, and then swung their whips desperately and headed towards the battlefield.
Just waiting for somewhere, if there is resistance, they use their own artillery fire to shoot at close range, and use the shrapnel like a storm to sweep away all the resistance at the first time.
Although the orcs are brave and known as the most heroic invincible warriors on the earth, they can only do nothing in the face of this merciless sky-high fire. He could only roar angrily and retreat step by step.
At the same time, the archers, grenadiers, spears, and even the artillery behind the empire came up one after another.
They trampled across the freshly burned land, trampled over the charred corpses and ashes, and then poured a terrible rain of bullets on the orcs through the raging fire.
The orcs couldn't support it, and they kept retreating.
In the midst of the panic, their establishment has become more and more chaotic.
At this time, a sniper team consisting of the Imperial Royal Janissaries also rushed forward.
They are the elite in the hands of Lorraine. These ruffians are armed with special bows and crossbows.
Those bows and crossbows are all the work of the Flying Eagle Company. Each one is made of stainless steel and comes at a high price. It has almost reached the level of the Lorraine musket, but compared to the musket. They also have the huge advantage of not having to worry about running out of ammunition.
Lorraine had planned to equip the crossbow with it, but it would cost a lot of money to do so. Those things were worth a lot of money, and all his money was smashed on the artillery, and there was no money left.
Second, this large number of troops was seconded by him, not his own.
Lord Luo only needs them to help him fight in a group, and the 'gold group' hired by spending money is for himself. He is not their real father, and of course he is not obligated to spend money to equip them with good equipment.
And he knew what kind of virtue the governors had, for he himself was the same man.
When the battle was over, the guys turned their faces and didn't recognize anyone, slapped their butts, and walked with those gears. What can Lorraine do with them?
It is estimated that the lawsuit will be brought to the emperor, and the old guy must be on the side, unwilling to offend his real governors for such a thing.
And, whoever it is, if you say, 'We're desperately trying to help him grab the territory, but we can't even give him a tabula rasa!
Third, although the Flying Eagle Company is strong, it has just been born after all, and its ability is limited. Not only did he have to keep things running and mitigate the economic damage of the war, but he also had to produce a lot of artillery, grenades, and wagons...... And so on these war machines.
Its production capacity was also blown to the limit. There is no additional strength to produce large quantities of bow and crossbow equipment.
There are these three factors that are restricted in it, so Lord Luo pretends not to see it, which saves both money and heart.
But at the same time, Lorraine also knows the importance of being a sniper on the battlefield. So, he also squeezed a sum of money out of his teeth and trained a sniper unit as best he could.
These ruffians were all selected from among the elite warriors of the Empire. Even if they are holding children's toy bows and arrows, they can walk through the sun with their eyes closed.
What's more, the strong bow and crossbow of the Flying Eagle Company are products of the high-tech era.
Not only is there a hidden groove and a mechanical sight, but it is also equipped with a pulley set, which is even an eight-year-old child who can easily pull a bow and fire arrows to hit a target a hundred paces away.
Although these elite warriors were not many in number, they held such a killing weapon in their hands, and immediately wielded their great power.
They have always been active on the front line, according to the standardized sniper tutorial under Lorraine, specializing in sniping those on the head of the BSP; The more feathers on their heads, the more diligent they greet.
It was as if death were playing his beloved harp, and every time the bowstring sounded, he would see a battle flag fall from the opposite side, followed by a panicked shout.
"Chief Dodra was shot dead by them. ”
"Chief Kado is dead. ”
"Chief Willint was killed in battle. ”
“......“
With their shouts, the already panicked orcs now lost their commander, and now they became even more confused, and began to collide with each other in the east and west, and had reached the verge of collapse.
But it was not them who collapsed first, but those troops who were sent to the outer line of the battlefield to monitor and block the Emperor's ** regiment.
Originally, according to the plan of Vichin and Torek, those troops were to be manned in order to stop the onslaught of the outer legions of the empire.
But when this plan fell into the hands of the orc chiefs, it was to show that they were better than the unlucky ones of Vichin and Torek. Second, it is also to gather the strength of the frontal army and strengthen the offensive force.
They only sent a small number of troops as a diversionary force.
In the beginning, the Empire's outer legions were on Lorraine's orders and stood still. Therefore, the orcs confronted them, and they could not be seen.
At this time, as the general offensive of the Imperial Corps began, this evil result was finally revealed.
Seeing that the outer line of the empire swooped down on the army, although those troops were not many in number, they did not show weakness.
"The Great God of Stone will bless his warriors!"
In that loud shout, those half-orcs waved the battle axe long knives in their hands, formed a formation, and resisted desperately, hoping to delay the attack of the Emperor ** Regiment.
But at this time, the Imperial cavalry arrived!
Facing the infantry on the ground, the Imperial cavalry wielded their scimitars with great skill.
They formed a column, and then, like a gale, slashed through the rear of the orcs. The scimitar in his hand slashed at the orcs with their backs to them.
The steel-forged saber swung down, and immediately a bright red blood flower flew up. The heads of the people who were killed directly were rolling, and the blood was flowing like rivers.
Many orcs didn't even have time to realize that something was wrong, and they felt a chill in the back of their hearts, and they had already stabbed them to the ground.
The Imperial cavalry stabbed him in the back by surprise. It was like an iron hammer stabbed into glass, and in an instant, it slew the orc army to pieces and shattered it.
The orc forces were crushed.
The Imperial cavalry was as fierce as a bamboo. They relied on the great inertia of their horses, and even rushed all the way to the banner of the orcs.
Vieira, the half-orc commander, originally gave his sister to the patriarch and became the second wife, and he became the leader with this layer of nepotism, and he had no ability at all. The only ability is to bully men and women.
He saw the Terran cavalry rushing from behind. The shiny saber could almost cut his nose, and he was suddenly frightened.
Under the fright, he couldn't care much, and immediately let out a terrible scream, and then threw down the soldiers around him, holding his head in both hands, and turned to flee.
But by this time a cavalryman had already rushed behind Vieira, and then with a sinister smile, he raised his blood-stained saber and slashed it at his head!
His knife technique was extremely crisp, and he immediately split Vieira's body in half from top to bottom.
Due to the effect of inertia, the dead body took two more steps forward before collapsing.
The cavalryman was confident in his sword. Without even looking at him, he turned his horse's head around and pounced on the orc beside him, who was holding the flag.
He rushed all the way to the orc, then slashed down with his knife again.
With a click, the sharp saber had severed the orc's head along with the banner in his hand.
As the flag fell, the already stretched resistance collapsed.
"The flag is down!"
"Vieira is dead!"
In the midst of the chaos, I don't know who shouted loudly.
Hearing that hoarse shout, the half-beast warriors who were struggling to resist were immediately terrified.
The love of fear spread like a plague in an instant.
"Let's go......"
"Run......"
At this time, they also forgot the heroic spirit that the orcs had inherited for thousands of years, and immediately threw away their weapons, and then also spread their feet and ran all over the mountains.
When the Imperial cavalry saw that they had completely dispersed, they did not pay any attention to them, and immediately turned their horses. The outer legion that flanked the Empire and fought towards the center of the battlefield.
Originally, the orcs on the outside were still desperately supporting, but at this time, seeing that someone had been defeated, everyone seemed to be relieved.
Since someone has already escaped, it won't be a shame to run away again, right?
Therefore, as if there was a chain reaction, with the collapse of the first orc army, the other army also made a decision immediately when the Terran cavalry arrived, turned around and fled.
Immediately after that, the third, the fourth......
The Empire's outer army, with the help of the cavalry, had completely defeated the orc blocking force in a matter of minutes, and then bypassed the sea of fire on the battlefield and rushed towards the flank of the main orc force.
The Empire's Eagle Banner was seen on their flanks, and they had clearly crossed the front line and stole straight back.
"The back road is about to be cut off!"
"They're going to surround us......"
The orcs, who had been blocked by the flames, were in an uproar.
At the same time, the red flag was waved on the balloons in the high place, and the Imperial cavalry received the order, and they had already galloped on their horses again, swooping towards the half-orc camp in the rear.
At this time, the high command level of Lorraine and the excellent quality of the Eastern Army were revealed.
The four cavalry galloped on the steppe as they regrouped. In the end, a powerful torrent was formed, and with the devastating and indomitable momentum of the iron-blooded spirit rider, it rushed towards the direction of the half-orc camp.
The half-orcs were even more panicked when they saw the billowing smoke and dust raised by the cavalry's war horses.
"Those people are digging our nest!"
"The wife and children at home ......"
"And grain, carts, old sows......"
"What to do, what to do?"
In their panicked shouts, the Imperial Legion had already given them an answer.
The artillerymen, already pushing their artillery, came to the front and took their positions again.
"Put!" waved down with the red flag in the hands of the officers.
'Boom, boom, boom, boom......'
The rumbling cannon rang out again.
The orcs immediately fell again in large numbers.
Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the orcs could no longer support it.
"Go, brethren!" shouted somebody.
Immediately afterward, the army was defeated.
The orcs shouted, and then like a snow-capped mountain collapsing, the huge force collapsed in an instant.
Everyone was running backwards. Some people even threw all the swords and axes in their hands on the ground in order to run faster, spread their feet, and ran wildly.
In this dense flow of people, even if someone wants to turn around and resist, but being caught by the defeated army, they can only flow down involuntarily like a leaf in the river, with the fierce river.
Seeing this situation, Sullivan, the young patriarch of the Silver Wolf Clan, had to turn the tide at the moment. led the silver wolf cavalry under his command, and went up against the flow of people, wanting to meet the army of the human race.
The observer on top of the balloon who was watching the battlefield keenly caught the situation and informed Lorraine.
Lorraine immediately ordered the mobilization of the mage troops - since the enemy in front of him fled, the fire did not need to be controlled. What's more, Lorina's unexpected breakthrough has just shown her might, and a large part of those winds are controlled by her, and everyone has been idle for a long time, just protecting her by the side.
At this time, he received the order, and immediately rose high, bypassed the raging sea of fire, and flew head-on towards the wolf cavalry.
The artillerymen immediately turned their guns around and began to bombard the wolf cavalry.
Before the silver wolf cavalry made contact, they had already suffered countless casualties.
When Sullivan saw the magicians flying in the sky, dense like crows, he immediately felt a chill.
After yesterday's battle, he knew that once these magicians came up, it would only be a matter of minutes before they were destroyed with their unique saturation bombardment.
Sullivan's mind turned, and he immediately ordered to turn, leading his wolf cavalry to draw a half-circle on the battlefield, and then fled backwards quickly.
Under the threat of the magicians, he led his wolf cavalry around the half-orc camp, and without even stopping for a moment, he quickly fled the battlefield and then disappeared from people's sight. It was just that behind him, a cloud of smoke and dust rose into the sky, billowing westward, and finally dissipated.
These bitches run away...... Escaped!
It took a while for the orcs to realize this.
At that moment, everyone couldn't help but scold.
"These cowards!"
"Coward!"
"Bastard!"
"Feed the uncooked pups!"
Everyone scolded and fled desperately backwards.
But at the same time, the original feeling of defeat was even more outrageous. Only this time it's not about their own failures, it's about the betrayers who have fled.
While they fled backwards, they were still a little lucky, fortunately the other party blocked the battle line with fire, otherwise everyone would not have fled so smoothly.
But after a while, I saw the fire behind me dim.
