After cleaning up the battlefield, Richard went directly to the field hospital to offer condolences.

After Richard came to the hospital, he immediately comforted the wounded soldiers. Thanks to better medical conditions, many of the more seriously injured veterans were able to save their lives. The vast majority of soldiers were able to recover and return to the troops. These wounded and recovered soldiers will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the army.

Excellent medical ability is an important reason why Haaland leads the army to be super combative.

According to the statistics of the staff officers, today's raid killed more than 5,600 orcs, of which more than 900 corpses were left behind by the dragon vein kobolds.

Harland led the troops, not only conquering the front Orc Battalion, but also the Grizzly Legion conquering the Orc Left Battalion.

The losses of the middle and right battalions of the orcs were also very heavy.

Because the human army won and controlled the battle line, after the battle, it could not only treat its own wounded, but also slaughter the wounded orcs.

In this battle, the orcs were killed as high as 5,600 people, and more than 700 orc prisoners were captured, and more than 3,000 wounded entered the orc camp.

The casualties caused by this battle to the orcs have been more than 10,000.

Although the results of this battle were brilliant, the losses of Haaland were not light.

The soldiers of the 1st Brigade suffered 280 casualties, more than 560 minor and serious injuries, and more than 800 casualties, with a casualty rate of nearly 60%.

Sixty percent of the casualties did not break up, and they held out until after the war, and the first brigade led by Haaland was undoubtedly a strong army.

The Warcraft Cavalry Brigade suffered more than 160 casualties, 45 killed, and more than 100 lightly and seriously wounded, which was also very heavy for a team of 400 people.

The guard brigade suffered 86 casualties and more than 200 minor and serious wounds, and the troops of the Haaland territory attacking the right battalion suffered more than 600 casualties.

In this surprise attack in the fog, Haaland led the regular army to more than 600 casualties and more than 1,300 minor and serious injuries.

Haaland led nearly two thousand casualties, and the Grizzlies' losses were not light at all.

Because the Grizzly Legion was not equipped with many alchemy bombs, they suffered heavy casualties in the attack on the Orc Left Battalion, although they annihilated many Orc Legions, killing more than 800 and seriously wounding more than 1,500 people.

In this battle, the human army suffered more than 4,200 casualties and annihilated more than 10,000 orcs. In particular, the core dragon vein kobold of the orc army suffered more than two thousand casualties, and the losses were already very heavy.

After this battle, the number of human regular armies has surpassed that of orcs.

The military power in the northern part of the Grant Kingdom is also gradually becoming a little unbalanced.

After the battle, Richard went to the Grizzly Legion camp and met his father, William.

After William went to Fort Grizzly to take office, he did not take his family with him. Although Fort William is now prosperous and Richard has invited Lady Ola, Lady Ola still does not want to settle in Fort William, and she and her children still live in Fort Blackriver.

William sat in the command tent and was a little unhappy that Richard Mingjin had withdrawn his troops. But Richard was already the Earl of Haaland, and his status was a few points higher than himself, so he was patient and did not directly reprimand him.

"Through the morning battle, I found that the morale of the orcs has declined, and now the Grizzly Legion still has nearly seventeen thousand soldiers to fight, and Haaland has about thirteen thousand men, and we have a total of thirty thousand regular troops. The orcs suffered more than 10,000 casualties, the main army only had 20,000 people left, and the six brigades of auxiliaries in the rear battalion of the orcs were not used at all in the field. The fighters have appeared, we should seize the opportunity to storm the orc camp, I don't know why the count wants to collect troops? ”

Richard heard the displeasure in his father's voice, so he explained.

"The heavy trebuchet has not yet been assembled, there is no long-range strike force, and the casualties of the storming orc battalion must be heavy. I don't think there's a rush, just wait. Tomorrow, when the trebuchet troops are assembled, and under the constant blows of long-range projection forces, we can force the orcs to leave the fortifications and fight us in the field, so that not only will the casualties be lighter, but the probability of victory will also increase. ”

Richard's explanation, William was still not very satisfied.

"If we don't hurry up and attack, give the orcs time to rectify, the morale of the orcs will recover a lot, and we may pay more sacrifices in the field tomorrow. Besides, we have given the orcs time to recuperate, the orcs will have the initiative, and if the orcs retreat tonight, we will lose the opportunity to completely annihilate the enemy, and such a situation must not be forgiven. ”

Decision-making on the battlefield has always been based on the public saying that the public is justified and the mother-in-law is reasonable, and William and Richard disagree with each other, which is mainly determined by the style of fighting.

Although William was old, he commanded the war more fiercely than Richard, and he was also more greedy than Richard. As long as the fighter plane appears, he will bite the enemy tightly and not relax, regardless of the severity of his casualties. He will do whatever it takes to defeat the enemy.

Despite his young age, Richard had a more steady commanding style and was not very greedy for merit. Even if the fighter plane appears, he will take me as the main thing, minimize his own mistakes, and reduce his own casualties.

This style of conduct is partly determined by the position they are in.

William is the commander of the Central Army, and even if there is a battle loss, he mainly relies on the Central Army to replenish it, and he doesn't worry much about it. Richard was a local earl, and every soldier and soldier had to bear the consequences and make up for the battle damage in his own territory.

For Haaland's territory, as long as the Kiram army is repelled and its own casualties are light, it is a big victory. Even if the Kiram army is annihilated, the casualties of the soldiers led by Haaland will not outweigh the losses.

Because fighting the orcs is a long-term war, in three years the orcs may devote more legions to attack the Harland territory. If Haaland loses a lot of losses and does not recover after three years, he could face a worse situation.

But for William, the annihilation of the Kiram Legion was the only way to make a great achievement. If the legendary kobold is killed in battle, William will also become an earl, and the Haaland family will take a new county.

William didn't have just one son on Richard, and the new county was likely to pass on to his favorite eldest son, Ron. Or split out the three viscounties and leave them to Ron, Hayden, George, and others.

The essence of this matter is that the interests of father and son are no longer the same.

The two quarreled for a few words, and seeing that Richard's opinion was very firm, the two sides could only compromise and decided to advance the attack time and attack the orc camp in the evening.

Haaland led the craftsmen to be very efficient, and had already assembled twenty trebuchets in the afternoon.

Seeing this scene, the orcs sent an army to harass them, trying to delay the process of assembling the trebuchet, but they were repelled by Richard and William, who had been prepared.

The two armies joined forces and organized a six-hundred-man Warcraft cavalry. With this Warcraft cavalry staring, the orcs' actions must be in vain.

After seeing the trebuchet assembled, Kiram knew in his heart that defeat was inevitable, the human army had seized the initiative, and this battle could no longer be won.

In Kiram's military career, he had not lost many battles, and when he had just advanced to the legend, he was beaten by the Duke of Breener and almost lost his life.

He was also chased by Duke Jonathan more than ten years ago, and there were only a dozen pro-soldiers left around him.

But losing to a rising star, Earl Haaland, Kiram was still very unwilling in his heart.

Kiram is a person with strong self-control, he quickly suppressed distractions, and quietly gave the order to the dragon-vein kobold to prepare to retreat after nightfall. With a large number of Warcraft cavalry staring, it is impossible to retreat during the day, and once the retreat is a rout, the losses will be even heavier.

The retreat of a large army, without a broken ranks, simply does not work. The dragon vein kobold is a Kiram and the core of his foothold in the orc empire, and of course he can't leave a broken queen.

Those who are left as substitutes for the dead ghosts can only be the four orcs of the right battalion.

This morning, the right battalion was attacked by the infantry led by Haaland, killing more than 600 people and wounding more than 1,000. However, after the war, they gathered nearly 2,000 remnants of the left battalion, and after replenishment, their strength on paper increased by a few points.

In order to stabilize the right battalion, Kiram personally rushed to the right battalion to inspect and talk with the junior officers.

Just as Kiram finished inspecting and was about to leave, an army with neat steps was slowly approaching.

Before the army could get closer, Kiram heard neat footsteps.

At the same time, a high-pitched horn sounded, followed by a dense drum beat.

Kiram stepped out of the tent and looked up to see that it was approaching dusk, and that night would fall soon. Looking at the sunset, Kiram thought to himself: "As long as you hold on for a while and hold out until night, the enemy may retreat." Either way, tonight's breakout is inevitable. ”

More than two dozen trebuchets fired alchemy bombs, and a scream suddenly came from the camp.

In this morning's battle, the alchemy bomb caused serious casualties to the orcs, and hearing this explosion again immediately reminded the orcs of terrifying memories, and the army's heart was immediately a little unstable.

Although the number of people in Haaland's territory is smaller, their combat effectiveness is stronger, so their task is to attack the middle battalion of the orcs, and the Grizzly Legion is slightly weaker in combat and attack the right battalion of the orcs.

As the alchemy bombs continued to be thrown into the orc camp, the human army was slowly approaching, and the orcs were suddenly in a dilemma.

If the orcs stay in the camp and are constantly attacked by the enemy's trebuchets, they will not only suffer a steady stream of casualties, but also deal a heavy blow to morale.

Heavy trebuchets are also equipped in the orc army, but the orc soldiers who operate them can only use them with experience. Orcs are accustomed to throwing heavy stone projectiles, and the range is very close, and it is impossible to shoot at the trebuchet troops in Haraland's territory.

If it is a retreat, the orcs have average organizational ability, and it is easy to turn the retreat into a rout, and the humans and the Warcraft cavalry are staring, and once they retreat, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

The only better option is to send troops out of the camp to fight against the humans.

Although Kiram had plans to retreat, he regarded the 8,000 orc army in the right battalion as a substitute for the dead.

The cohesion of the orcs is average, and if Kiram directly orders them to break off, the orc officers and soldiers in the right battalion may not obey the order. When the time comes, it will inevitably be a situation of haste and dispersal, and it will not be able to play a role in containing the enemy at all.

Therefore, Kiram could only take the method of deception and personally came to the right battalion to boost the morale of the officers and soldiers, but unfortunately in the evening, the humans launched an attack. Seeing that the morale was getting lower and lower as the delay continued, Kiram thought about it for a moment and decided to let the soldiers of the right battalion make a counter-charge.

In order to boost morale, Kiram decided to take the lead and personally lead the team in the operation.

The commander took the lead and had a great impact on morale, and soon under the whip of the orc officers, the four groups of orcs in the right battalion put together their formation.

"Hurry up, run fast, with trebuchet range, we can crush humanity."

The orc officers continued to boost morale, and the orcs dragged in a scattered formation, looking a little chaotic to storm the Grizzly Legion's formation.

In the face of the orc charge, the Grizzly Legion did not dare to underestimate, especially the veterans with rich combat experience. It was such a seemingly chaotic attack that broke the Grizzly Legion formation three years ago and killed countless Grizzly Legion soldiers.

Of course, the attack of the orcs three years ago was much larger than this one, and there were a total of sixteen orc brigades and more than 30,000 orcs participating in the battle.

"Don't panic, shoot arrows! Archery! ”

The officers kept urging, and the Grizzly Legionnaires fired arrows after arrows.

The orcs have rough skin and thick flesh, and some professionals have dozens of feathered arrows stuck in their bodies, and they still rush forward bravely.

A minotaur professional held a shield, and hundreds of arrows were densely nailed to the shield, and he slammed into it fiercely. The strength of the Minotaur professional was very great, and he knocked down the three shield soldiers of the Grizzly Legion in an instant.

As the minotaur professional smashed into the shield formation, more than a dozen orc warriors rushed up through the gap in an instant, disrupting the formation of the squadron and leaving the squadron in a predicament.

The brigade headquarters found out about this situation and immediately dispatched dozens of elite soldiers to fill the gap.

Armed with enchanted bows and extremely skilled in archery, these elite soldiers drew their bows and arrows, and with a single salvo, they eliminated a dozen orc professionals, helping their companions stabilize the crumbling formation.

For a time, on a kilometer-long front, such a scene appeared everywhere.

Although the orcs attacked fiercely, the number of troops was small after all, far inferior to the grizzly legionnaires.

Half an hour into the battle, the Grizzly Legionnaires had already begun to gain the upper hand.

Seeing that the battle was stalemate and his side had fallen into a disadvantage, Kiram immediately decided to personally lead the charge and defeat a large human brigade to recover the disadvantage.

I saw Kiram stretch out his hand, and a flaming dragon appeared in the sky. This is the bloodline spell of the dragon vein kobold, and the destructive power of the spell is already at the level of the seven rings.

Kiram is a Legendary 1st Order, and despite its mediocre magical abilities, it can also use a three-time Standard Model Flame Dragon.

The flaming dragon lunged downwards and exploded directly among the soldiers, killing and wounding fifty or sixty people in an instant.

A bloodline spell from Kiram caused more than one-third of a squadron to suffer casualties, and the battle line was also shaky, and the strength of the legendary professional was so strong.
