As Haaland led his army forward, the Orc Brigade also came within range of their strikes.

Three hundred scorching ray guns were activated at the same time, and the archers of the first brigade led by Haaland also shot feathered arrows, and the magicians also released fireballs and lightning to hit the orcs from a distance.

However, the long-range strike forces of the two sides are still clearly strong and weak, and the exchange ratio is obviously at a disadvantage.

In this case, Sophia could only let the first team charge the orc team against the rain of arrows, hoping to be able to fight hand-to-hand combat to offset the long-range attack advantage of the orc team.

The situation on the battlefield has long been in Richard's eyes, although he can now release a third starlight bomb to defeat the orcs, improve the battlefield situation, and allow Haaland to lead the army to reduce casualties and gain the upper hand.

But Richard awakens to his talent for danger perception and is vaguely aware of danger lurking in the dark.

Think about it with your brain, when an army of hundreds of thousands of orcs is attacking, how can there be no legendary orcs in charge?

Richard has been leading troops to fight for 20 years, and he is already a veteran of a hundred battles in northern Xinjiang, plus he has a cautious personality, and he feels that the crisis is still hidden in the dark, so he naturally has to stabilize first, see what hole cards the orcs have, and will not exhaust his magic power.

Seeing that the orc archers kept shooting arrows, they quickly shot the second and third rounds.

After six rounds of arrow rain, Haaland led the first brigade to rush through this road of death.

In just three hundred meters, withstanding six rounds of arrow rain from half-orcs, the soldiers of Haaland's first brigade have suffered nearly five hundred casualties. The casualty rate reached the level of two out of five.

If it was an ordinary army, suffering such heavy casualties, it would almost be directly defeated. However, the 1st Brigade led by Haaland was a unit with a very strong sense of honor, and despite the heavy casualties, it still launched a fierce charge against the Orc Brigade.

The officers and soldiers were like wounded tigers, their eyes were completely red, and they fiercely crashed into the military formation of the orc brigade.

Hand-to-hand combat began, and the casualties of the 1st Brigade were immediately reduced.

At the same time, the magicians who cooperated with the first team to fight were released one after another, and the greasy spell, spider web technique, and fireball technique were continuously released, helping the first team defeat the enemy.

Although the half-orc arrow rain is powerful, but the magicians can release defensive arrows, magic shields and other spells, plus the professional officers focus on protection, the half-orcs have six rounds of arrow rain, and the magicians led by Harland are almost unharmed.

The orc archers were caught in hand-to-hand combat, and although they were just as strong in hand-to-hand combat as they could compete with the First Brigade led by Haaland, they were not as formidable as long-range attacks, and with the help of the magicians, the battle line remained balanced.

Just when the first brigade was in a bitter battle, Haaland led the second brigade to lead the troops to break the balance.

Although this brigade is not as elite as the first brigade, it is also equipped with more than 600 pieces of enchanted armor, and the number of professionals in the brigade exceeds 300. The 2nd Brigade was also armed with 300 Scorching Ray Guns, and the 9th Orc Brigade suffered heavy casualties in the long-range attack.

After entering hand-to-hand combat, the ninth orc brigade was quickly destroyed.

The second brigade freed its hands and immediately cooperated with the first brigade to flank the orcs.

The flanks were struck by the second brigade, and the casualties of the orcs immediately increased, and the situation became worse, and they fell into the dilemma of fighting on both sides.

At this moment, the retreating orcs had completed their rectification, and the three legions of orcs had their hands free, ready to launch a counter-charge, cooperate with the thirteenth legion, and surround the Haaland soldiers who came out of the city.

The magic crystal cannon on the tenth station continued to attack, blocking the orc reinforcements. And the orcs gritted their teeth despite the casualties.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, the high-level leaders of the Harland Mage Association took action one after another, and the elf squadron and the special squadron jumped out of the military formation one after another, acting as stragglers to hunt orcs.

The Lion Cavalry, Wyvern-Foot Dragoon, Magic Hot Air Balloon and other flying units are all dispatched, ready to synchronize the troops to attack the orcs from the air.

The harpies in the orc army also gathered and launched a counterattack against the griffin and the wyvern.

The lion and the two-legged wyvern are already much more powerful than the harpy, and with the help of the knight on their backs, their combat effectiveness is far superior to that of the harpy.

Despite ten

There were six or seven hundred Harpys near the station, but when they fought against Haaland's flying troops, they fell into disadvantage.

Wendini, Wendy, Eve and other magicians are very strong in combat, and as soon as the magicians of the Harland Mage Guild exert their strength, the casualties of the half-orc brigade suddenly increased.

Hundreds of mages unleashed a round of magic, and nearly two hundred orcs were killed or wounded. After all, there are quite a few mid-level mages led by Haaland, plus a large number of low-level mages, the mage group is already a heavyweight weight that determines victory or defeat on a medium-sized battlefield.

The orcs were originally caught in a dilemma by the first and second brigades, but now they were hit by the mage group, and the situation was suddenly unsupportable.

At this moment, Richard had already taken the Second Warcraft Cavalry Brigade to flank the Tenth Orc Brigade.

The combat effectiveness of the 10th Orc Brigade was relatively weak, and it was simply unable to resist the attack of the Warcraft Cavalry Brigade. Almost in a charge, the 10th Orc Brigade had been routed.

The Warcraft Cavalry Brigade freed its hand and immediately circled around the right flank of the Half-Orc Brigade, cooperating with the First Brigade and the Second Brigade to attack the enemy.

Now the orcs are caught in hand-to-hand combat, besieged by the first brigade and the second brigade led by Haaland, and they can't spare much manpower to shoot arrows, and they are quickly approached by the monster cavalry.

The battle has reached this point, and the army led by Haaland has already destroyed the 1st, 6th, 7th, 9th, and 15th infantry brigades of the 13th Orc Legion, and the two special brigades of the Serpent Man and the Silver Moon Wolf Cavalry.

Now the Warcraft cavalry rushed up, and the last elite soldiers of the orcs were also in a desperate situation of being surrounded on three sides.

Coupled with the orcs who were killed and wounded by the magic crystal cannon, the casualties of the orcs were already very heavy.

Although Mellonla transferred four legions to the direction of Grant this time, these four legions are all legions with average combat effectiveness, and their numbers are relatively low.

The Orc Steppe Governorate covers a vast area, not only with three million square kilometers of the Northern Prairie, but also with one million square kilometers of the Silver Wolf Mountain Range region, one million square kilometers of the Eastern Coastal Forest Area, six million square kilometers of the Northern Ice Fields region, and one million square kilometers of the Filip Highlands region.

More than 100 years ago, the Orc Grassland Governorate still managed millions of square kilometers of the Eagle Mountain Range, and its territory extended to the south of the Dragon Canyon, including the three northern provinces of the Grant Kingdom, and the four major dukedoms of Edward, Fox, Harland, and Jonathan.

More than a hundred years ago, Duke Breenau won a decisive victory in the Dragon Canyon, and the orcs gradually withdrew from the Eagle Mountain Range region, and now they have lost nearly 600,000 square kilometers of land.

Despite the loss of a large territory, the territory managed by the Orc Grassland Governorate covers an area of more than 12 million square kilometers, although nearly half of it is a cold ice field area, and the orc army is also very tight to defend such a vast land.

There were sixty-eight orc legions in the entire steppe governorate, and the regular army was close to one hundred and forty thousand men. In addition to the ten corps mastered by Melonla, it was divided into three front armies.

The main opponent of the Eastern Front was the Kingdom of Grant, which was organized into fourteen orc legions, close to 300,000 troops.

Nineteen years ago, Richard invented the counterweight trebuchet, and Martins, the commander of the Northern Legion, relied on this new weapon to achieve a great victory, when the Kingdom of Grant invaded the northern prairies and killed the legendary boar man, the commander of the Eastern Front.

In order to improve the situation of the Eastern Front that year, the orcs mobilized reinforcements from four legions in this direction.

After more than 20 years of conquest, the orcs lost their troops, and were annihilated by more than 200,000 troops led by Harland, and also lost the legendary dragon vein kobolds. In the last battle, even the ace unit of the 17th Army Corps was lost.

Although the cannon fodder troops are easy to replenish, cannon fodder alone cannot win in a war, and each elite is surrounded and annihilated, and the war potential of the orcs is weakened by one point.

This time four legions of reinforcements were mobilized, and Merlonla was already doing his best. In order to stabilize the situation, in the last ten years, the steppe governorate has been unable to continue to increase troops to the Eastern Front.

You can't give up the Fili Heights, the Silver Wolf Mountains, and the Orc Steppe Governorate is not the only one enemy that Harland leads. The Red Dragons of the Coast and the legendary ogres of the Eagle Mountains are all enemies of the Orcs in a way.

Not to mention also

There are five human states, the Kingdom of Grant, the Grand Duchy of Starnik, the Kingdom of Lane, the Grand Duchy of Larsun, and the Grand Duchy of Crimea, all of which are enemies that the Steppe Governorate needs to defend.

In the face of so many enemies, the Steppe Governorate simply could not transfer all its forces to the Harland Territory.

Seeing that the half-orc brigade is about to be surrounded and annihilated, once this elite brigade is surrounded and annihilated by the army led by Haaland, the thirteenth orc legion will inevitably collapse.

Seeing that the battle had reached this point, Richard still did not release the last starlight bomb, and the commander of the Grassland Governorate Melonla finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he suddenly appeared and launched a surprise attack on Richard alone.

Meronla was already a legendary third-order, and her speed was extremely fast, and she turned into an afterimage in an instant, and launched a charge in the direction of the second Demon Beast Cavalry Brigade.

Meronla is a lion man who has awakened six spells after being promoted to the third rank of legend, three of which are already at the legendary level. His personal strength is no less than that of the Duke of Brenner back then, and he is slightly more powerful than the legendary second-order black dragon.

The third order of the Legend is already a high-level member of the Orc Empire, and Meronla's status in the Orc Empire is roughly the same as Richard's status in the Grant Kingdom.

Although the level of magical civilization in the Orc Empire is not high, it has a vast area and can produce a variety of magical resources.

Mellona clenched a heavy giant axe in both hands, like a bolt of lightning, and charged against the current towards the second brigade of the Warcraft Cavalry.

Seeing this scene, Wendini immediately released the powerful eight-ring magic dimensional cage.

A dimensional space appeared beside Meronla, trapping the legendary third-order lion man in a dimensional cage in an instant.

Seeing that he was trapped in another dimension, Meronla's ferocity instantly increased, he roared suddenly, and his body immediately swelled three times, stimulating the bloodline, and violently raised the legendary giant axe, shattering the dimensional cage.

Although Mellonra reacted quickly, the slightest opportunity that Wendini fought for Richard was enough on the battlefield.

As soon as Wendini's spell was released, Richard decisively released the third starlight bomb.

As soon as Meronla got out of trouble, a white light suddenly fell from the sky and hit the legendary third-order lionman.

Seeing this scene, Mellon La hurriedly took out a magic bronze bell, and the magic bell instantly turned into a ten-meter-high giant bell, covering Mellon La from head to toe in the giant bell.

The thick starlight slammed into the giant bell, causing layers of ripples, and the two legendary magic items burst out with huge energy fluctuations. A dazzling light erupted, and a powerful explosion rang out from the giant bell.

In an instant, a deafening sound came from the area near the giant bell.

The aftermath of the battle made Richard, who was a kilometer away, couldn't help but plug his ears and squint his eyes. The second brigade of the Warcraft Cavalry led by him also fell into chaos at the same time.

The ability of the Starlight Bomb far surpassed that of the legendary first-order magic bronze bell, and the furious energy held on for a moment, fiercely penetrating the magic bronze bell.

Suddenly, Richard heard a terrible scream. Although the legendary third-order Meronla survived with the help of the magic bronze bell, the injuries on her body were also very serious.

Melonla's whole body seemed to be steamed, and her life energy was knocked down by seventy or eighty percent, and even the legendary magic bronze bell that she relied on was pierced by the starlight.

This kind of injury has weakened Merlonla's combat effectiveness by four or five percent.

Seeing that the Starlight Bomb had injured Mellola, Richard immediately turned his horse's head, joined up with the First Brigade, and handed the Starlight Necklace to Sophia.

Sophia refined the legendary Styx Elixir, and after breaking through her spiritual power, she brought the Starlight Necklace and could already release three Starlight Bombs, which would be enough to make Meronla lose her life if she could hit it again.

Melonla's eyes were very keen, although she didn't know the details of Sophia, she immediately changed her mind when she saw this scene, and her body turned around and tore apart the scroll of another dimension, and escaped with her life through magical means.

Meronla chose to give up and left very decisively, and the legendary first-order gnoll woman hidden in the shadows was cunning like a ghost, and she also did not show up.

The two legends stopped, and the half-orc brigade was self-sufficient

However, the fate of being surrounded and annihilated cannot be avoided.

Without the elite army of the half-orc brigade, the Thirteenth Legion was quickly defeated, and even if other orc armies responded, only 6,000 soldiers were gathered.

In this battle, the orcs lost another battle, counting the results of the magic crystal cannon at the head of the city, the orcs lost nearly 20,000 soldiers.

More than half of the 20,000 soldiers are strong soldiers in the orc army, and the elite soldiers will be annihilated, and they will not be able to replenish them in a short time.

Although the orcs tried their best this time and used sixteen legions to besiege the Harland Territory, they still could not open the situation, but instead broke their teeth at the tenth soldier and lost the strong army of the thirteenth corps.

After the Battle of the Samba River, the orcs quickly accepted reality and began to withdraw their troops on October 16.
