Richard rode an iron wildebeest and followed Lieutenant Colonel Marven to attack the orc formation.

They appeared on the battlefield very suddenly, caught off guard, and the orcs were not prepared at all.

Commander Gunderson hurriedly used the tactic of drawing a group, directing the two squadrons in the rear to turn around through the flag, changing the formation and blocking the cavalry in a dense phalanx.

Before the engagement, Marven led the cavalry to release three rounds of feathered arrows in a row, shooting down fifty or sixty orc soldiers.

Gunderson had the herald command the kobold infantry to fire crossbow arrows, but the numbers were small enough to hit only seven or eight soldiers.

Once the cavalry charge falls off the horse, it is difficult to save the life unless it is a powerful professional.

Richard's archery skills were very good, and after a few rounds of feathered arrows, he shot six orcs, including a professional, and got 500 experience points, a small achievement.

Getting closer and closer to the orc formation, Richard rode his war horse and violently rushed into the orc formation.

The Iron Wildebeest was so strong that it violently knocked down an orc, trampling the orc to death. Richard stabbed his spear hard, killing the second enemy.

A sound of breaking the air came, and Richard didn't look back, and he could feel a trace of cold through his clothes.

Listen to the wind, it's the sound of spears.

If you turn back, I'm afraid that you will be pierced by this shot first. The orcs who can stab this shot have a good level of marksmanship.

Richard was not good at using spears, and when he saw the crisis coming, he decisively discarded the spear and suddenly came to hide in a kick, hiding on the other side of the iron wildebeest's body.

The spear stabbed through the back of the wildebeest, and Richard almost lost his life.

Richard looked back and saw that the attacker was a third-order minotaur.

The minotaur stabbed in the air, and just as he was about to return the gun and stab again, Richard had already ridden away.

The opponent of the Minotaur has become Lieutenant Colonel Marvin.

Lieutenant Colonel Marven rode a fourth-order fire dragon horse, and the fire dragon horse spewed out a stream of flames and poured it on the minotaur, and the spear in his hand was picked up hard.

The third-order minotaur weighing several hundred pounds was jumped high by Marven, flew out a distance of more than ten meters, and landed near Richard.

Richard used his long sword to backstab with his left hand, impartially, and hit the minotaur in the throat, easily ending the life of the third-order minotaur.

"Kill a third-order minotaur and reward 2,000 experience points."

Kill a third-order minotaur and reward three minor merits.

Although Lieutenant Colonel Marvin accounted for the vast majority of the contributions, the post-war military judge should have given Richard a small credit.

This battle is not over yet, Richard has already won two small merits, adding 2,500 experience points.

Richard opened the attribute panel and found that he had accumulated 5,000 experience points, which was enough to improve the three skills of the kingdom's basic swordsmanship, horsemanship, and northern legion fighting skills.

Of these three skills, the fighting skill is the most useless.

Combat skills are bare-handed combat skills that play only a small role in warfare. Unless Richard falls off his horse and gets caught in hand-to-hand combat, and wants to knock down a heavy soldier, he will use the Combat Skills skill.

Generally speaking, the third-order fighting technique is sufficient. Unless he was a gladiator performing hand-to-hand combat, few soldiers specialized in this skill.

Even Richard's third uncle, Bernie Haaland, has third-order fighting skills, and his second uncle Powell's fighting skills are not as good as Richard's.

On the contrary, Richard's father, William, was one of the few warriors in the Northern Legion who was proficient in martial arts, and he cultivated this skill to the limit of the sixth order, reaching the peak of human fighting skills.

Horsemanship and Grant Kingdom basic swordsmanship are both very important. Riding can enhance the cooperation with the Warcraft mount, in the battle just now, if Richard hadn't ridden and performed a kick to hide, I'm afraid he would have been severely injured by the third-order minotaur and died in the battle.

The basic swordsmanship of the Grant Kingdom is also a very important combat skill, and it has been repeatedly used in cavalry charges. Moreover, the basic swordsmanship of the Grant Kingdom is also a prerequisite skill for high-level swordsmanship such as the White Crow Swordsmanship, the Spirit Snake Swordsmanship, and the Flying Dragon Swordsmanship.

In terms of increasing combat effectiveness, improving the basic swordsmanship of the Grant Kingdom can have an immediate effect. It was impossible for Richard to think too long during the battle, and Richard had already made a choice to increase 3,500 points of experience to the basic swordsmanship of the Grant Kingdom.

Experience was added, and the properties panel changed immediately.

"The fourth-order basic swordsmanship is already the limit, and if you want to enhance the power of the swordsmanship, you can only look for a higher-order swordsmanship skill."

Richard froze, holding his sword in his backhand, and with all his attention slashing down the orc soldiers who stood in his way, he swept his eyes and found that the cavalry had broken through the barriers of the two orc squadrons, killing more than one hundred and eighty orc soldiers.

Of the orc soldiers who survived this round of charge, only a sparse fifty or sixty remained, and they had already been frightened and fled to the forest in a panic.

With dozens of soldiers, Ron constantly shot arrows to hunt down these rout deserters.

After defeating the two orc squadrons, Lieutenant Colonel Marven turned around and stormed the left flank of the orcs.

The orcs on the left flank were very close to the castle, and the formation was already scattered, and there was no dense formation, and the orcs could not stop the cavalry charge at all.

Lieutenant Colonel Marven fought successively, concentrating his forces on the scattered enemy, and continuously charged, defeating five squadrons of orc soldiers one after another.

In the follow-up battle, Richard once again seized the opportunity and shot a second-order orc, adding 1,000 experience points and accumulating two small skills.

In this morning's battle, Richard gained 3,500 experience points and accumulated four minor skills. Now he has saved two medium merits and seven minor merits.

The soldiers of the Eighth Brigade, who were stationed in the last three castles, were already low in confidence and wanted to make plans to break through.

Suddenly, I found a wave of reinforcements, which immediately strengthened my confidence.

Seeing that Lieutenant Colonel Marven was like chopping melons and vegetables, easily defeating five squadrons of orcs, the defenders at the head of the city, under the command of Captain Sharp, seized the opportunity and rose bravely, and took the initiative to open the city gate and launch a counterattack against the orcs.

Caught between the human soldiers inside and out, the orc soldiers suddenly retreated. Captain Sharp commanded his soldiers in desperate pursuit, taking advantage of the situation to recapture the lost Seventh and Fifth Forts.

The remaining orc armies withdrew to Castle 1 to 3 one after another, not daring to act rashly.

The orc siege force was attacked by cavalry three times during the siege, and each time suffered heavy losses.

The third loss, in particular, was even more painful for Commander Gunderson. Seeing that he was about to break through the Platos defense, he did not expect the situation to fall into a stalemate again.

Although the number of cavalry commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Marven is small, its combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the Warcraft cavalry under the command of Baron Harden. But this cavalry seized the best opportunity, like the last straw on the camel, and crushed the spirit of the orcs at once.

Gunderson knew in his heart that if it didn't take a long time to remediate, the two orc brigades would no longer have the confidence to attack the city.
