Chu Zihang vacated a bag of food, put the deserter's head in it, and let the Donald family carry it on their backs.

After some fierce humility, Donald's youngest son took on the task with a bitter face.

"What's going on with Fort Rejek now?"

Chu Zihang began to interrogate the leader of the deserters.

The leader of the deserters snorted, don't look away from him.

"Takar."

Chu Zihang didn't waste time either, and directly dispatched professionals.

"Yes. Answer your Vice-Chief's questions well, brute. ”

Takar grinned, grabbed the deserter's hand and poked a sharpened wooden spike between his fingernails.

"Ahh

Ten fingers connected to the heart, and the pain in the heart made the deserter leader scream miserably.

"Speak quickly!"

Takar picked up another wooden thorn and shouted.

"I say, I say."

Where did the deserter leader receive this, and the little backbone that was left immediately disappeared without a trace.

He spit out what he knew like a machine gun, lest he be tortured again if he spoke slowly.

At present, five of the eight villages of Barony Reyek, plus the village of Rhodes, have been slaughtered, and the remaining three villages have been concentrated in the town of Reyek, not far from the castle, for defense.

It turned out that the townspeople of the town of Rejek were concentrated in the castle.

The army of the orc boss Scar was divided into two groups, the main force besieging the castle, and the partial army continued to attack the town of Rejek.

Two of Baron Rejeck's three sons had been killed in battle, and half of his knights had been lost.

Coincidentally, Baron Reyeke had a conflict with his neighbor Baron Iberin, so he gathered all his knights to the castle and prepared to march to Baron Iberin's territory for an armed parade.

Although the village of Rhodes was easily destroyed by the orcs, Fort Reyek and the town of Reyek were able to resist the orc raid.

Baron Reyek also sent knights to the Barony of Ibeline for help, but they never returned.

Although the two have a lot of contradictions, they are not to the point of not being saved.

After all, the orcs' thirst for war is well known, and once the Reyek Territory is destroyed, the next unlucky person will be Baron Ibeline.

So either the people sent were intercepted by the orcs, or the Barony of Ibelyn was also attacked by the orcs, and the doppelganger was lacking in skills.

Either way, it's bad news for the people of the Rayek Realm.

Baron Reyek was not a fool either, and knew that this time could not be shaken, so he blocked the news and announced that reinforcements would arrive soon.

But the leader of the deserters accidentally learned the truth, so he escaped with a few familiar soldiers.

Although it is possible to die if you escape, it is better than waiting to die in the castle.

Sadly, they still killed themselves.

"How many troops do the orcs have?"

Chu Zihang asked.

"There are at least seven or eight hundred, and they're still increasing."

Said the head of the deserters.

Seven or eight hundred?

He was a little surprised, and a little confused.

If these orcs were all at the level of the three heads they encountered at the beginning, how did Baron Reyek hold on?

"How many troops does Baron Rejek have left?"

Chu Zihang asked again.

"Before I left, there were probably more than forty knights, more than fifty knight squires, and more than three hundred infantry."

Said the head of the deserters.

In the late Middle Ages, there were more than forty knights in a baron.

Baron Reyek can still have so many troops after the fierce battle, this strength is a bit of a supermodel.

But after all, it's a dream world, and it's normal for productivity to exceed the standard.

With so many troops, and castles and towns as defenses, it should be too late to rush over.

"Take us to Fort Rejerk."

Chu Zihang said.

"No, you don't know that those orcs are terrible, and you will only be torn to shreds by them when you go back."

The leader of the deserters shook his head repeatedly.

"If you don't take us there, you'll be cut into slices by me right now."

Takar threatened at the right time.

He sliced the deserter's shirt with his dagger, the tip of the knife roaming across his back, as if looking for a place to strike.

"I'll go, I'll take you. Please, don't torture me anymore. ”

The leader of the deserters wept bitterly.

"What about your choice?"

Chu Zihang looked at Donald's family.

"If you choose to go it alone, I can give you some food, armor, and weapons."

He said.

"We are willing to follow you, my lord."

Donald's flabby face shook a few times, and finally made up his mind.

Even the cavalry calling for help couldn't escape, so where could they flee?

And even if Chu Zihang gave them armor and weapons, they were still just a group of untrained civilians.

Killing a group of armed soldiers in a trial squad is as easy as killing a chicken, and killing them is just as easy as killing them.

"Okay, let's go."

Chu Zihang said.

——————

Behind the wooden walls of the town of Reyek, the deputy chief knight, Hawkwood, frowned.

Although there were only two or three hundred orcs attacking this side, it was still a huge pressure for the town that lacked defenses.

Fortunately, there is a wooden wall around it, otherwise the orcs would have swarmed in.

But after all, it was only wood, and although he assigned people to stop the orcs from destroying it, he didn't know how long he could hold out.

"Knight, the orcs are attacking again."

Another knight shouted.

Hawkwood looked up, and the orc position not far away had indeed begun to stir.

"Archer prepare!"

He shouted.

The most effective weapon against such a thick-skinned enemy is a bow and arrow.

More than thirty archers bent their bows and arrows, and each of them had a different bow shape.

Some are longbows, some are short bows, some are horn bows, some are recurve bows, and some are direct hunting crossbows.

Because these archers were not all soldiers, there were also quite a few hunters and civilians.

The killing distance of these bows and crossbows varied, and Lancelot didn't bother to give them a formation, so he directly took a minimum distance.

"Eighty steps, seventy steps, sixty steps"

In his silence, the ugly faces of the orcs clearly appeared in the eyes of the townspeople.

Their faces are full of fighting enthusiasm, and they deliberately bulge their muscles to show off their strength.

Some of the orcs still had all sorts of loot hanging from their bodies, and some townspeople recognized the clothes of their loved ones.

“Waaaaaagh！”

One of the orcs opened its mouth, and all the orcs shouted along.

The savage roar frightened some of the timid archers, and their hands began to tremble.

"Calm down, don't panic. Whoever shoots out early will halve today's food. ”

Hawkwood found out about this and immediately shouted loudly.

He has been practicing knightly martial arts since he was a child, and his lung capacity is quite large, and he even drowned out the roar of the orcs.

And the archers also calmed down under his threat, and their hands no longer trembled.

"Forty steps, shoot!"

Hawkwood drew his sword and roared.

The tight strings of the archers were finally released, and the rain of arrows flew into the sky like a flock of birds, and swooped down on the orcs on the ground.

The orcs who attacked the town of Reyek were basically unarmed, so this round of salvos worked well.

Directly killed seven orcs, and several were shot at the vital point and lost their combat effectiveness.

Looking at the orc who pulled the arrow from his stomach and continued to charge happily, Hawkwood's face twitched.

The thickness of the skin of these guys is almost catching up with the leather armor.

"Keep shooting!"

He shouted.

After a few rounds of firing, there was another pile of orc corpses on the ground, but the vanguard of the orcs had already rushed to the city gate.

"Raise your shield!"

Hawkwood ordered.

A dozen soldiers formed a shield wall, forming the first line of defense behind the city gates.

The city gates are made of hardwood with a diameter of about forty centimeters, and no matter how strong the orcs are, they can't be removed for a while.

Therefore, they can only crowd in front of the city gate and attack the soldiers inside through the gaps.

If it is a civil war between humans, then such an attack is no different from sending them to death.

However, the strength of the orcs is too strong.

There was no need to use weapons, and even if you stretched out your foot and kicked it on the shield, the soldiers who were less physically fit would be kicked and almost fell.

Fortunately, the soldiers also have experience, and as long as one soldier does not support, he will be dragged behind, and then another soldier will make up for it.

More than forty soldiers were constantly rotated, and with the assistance of archers, they were able to withstand the attacks of the orcs for a while.

Hawkwood nodded, the first half of the day should be over like that, and as a rule of thumb, this group of orcs will attack again at dusk.

After the orcs retreated, they had to quickly arrange for the soldiers to rest, and then let the young men of the civilians change their defenses.

Just as he was thinking about whether to raise some food rations today, the waaagh sound of orcs suddenly came from the south side of the town.

Not good!

Hawkwood was shocked.

"Edward stays, and the others come with me."

He yelled, then turned and ran straight south.

The remaining three knights and ten knightly squires followed.

Hawkwood's reaction was not unpleasant, but it was too late.

By the time he arrived, the wooden fence was crumbling.

More than a dozen orcs were carrying a huge log, ready to give the final blow to the wooden wall, and dozens of orcs shouted and cheered on the side.

"I think about it, this time I can definitely smash the wooden stick of the little shrimp."

One orc said loudly, and the other orcs thought so.

As if blessed by a mysterious power, the muscles of the orcs carrying the wood bulged even more.

The log was lifted high and slammed into the already cracked wooden wall.

"No!"

Hawkwood shouted in despair.

Once the hole is breached, the town of Rejek is finished.

He prayed to all known gods for miracles.

But the miracle did not happen, and the wooden wall was smashed off, revealing a gap two people wide.

"Warriors, follow me."

Hawkwood drew his sword and shouted.

There is still a chance, as long as they can block this round of attacks, they can rush to repair the wooden wall.

"For the sake of the Ryek, for the sake of the Baron, for the honor of the Knights!"

The knights and knight squires also drew their swords and roared, following the deputy chief knight towards the gap.

They have been vassals of the Rejek family for generations, and some of them even have relatives in the town.

The tragedy of those villages must not be allowed to repeat itself here.

The orcs did not seem satisfied with only one broken log, and lifted the log again.

At this moment, three black shadows flew over from a distance, each hitting an orc.

Two greenskins had their necks pierced by spears, and one greenskin's head had their heads smashed with a hammer.

The unbalanced log immediately toppled to the side, crushing several hapless orcs underneath.

"What is this?"

Hawkwood paused for a moment, and looked towards where the spear had flew.

Seven heavily armed men and women were galloping towards this direction.

"Could it be reinforcements sent by the Baron?"

The thought flashed through his mind, but he immediately overturned it.

It would be good if the baron didn't look for him to ask for reinforcements now, how could he send someone over.

Regardless of the identity of the other party, the arrival of reinforcements still lifted the spirits of the knights.

"Kill these filthy animals."

Hawkwood burst out of the gap, stabbing a orc in the chest with a sword.

And the knights and squires followed, plugging the gap.

“Waaaaaagh!”

The sudden change upset the orcs, and an orc in leather armor and holding a machete shouted, and the onlookers immediately pounced towards the gap.

It didn't move itself, instead staring dangerously at the charging Trial Squad.

"The iron shrimp over there, come and fight with me."

The orc boss shouted towards Chu Zihang.

"I'll kill it, and you can help the defenders."

Its invitation is in the arms of Chu Zihang, although the orcs are not afraid of death in battle, but once the leader is killed, it will immediately become a plate of loose sand.

The trial team is diverted, and he goes on his own to face the orc boss, and Fingal leads people to support the defenders.

"Little shrimp, your stuff is good, but it's a pity that it's mine in a while."

The orc boss looked at the silver plate armor, and his saliva flowed.

"Ugly aliens, all you can get is death."

Chu Zihang said coldly.

The steel sword snatched from the deserter leader pierced through the stab and stabbed into the waist of the orc boss.

"Why does this sound so familiar to me?"

The orc boss muttered as he swung his machete.

Although it has not received special training, it can go from a kid to a boss, and the actual combat experience is naturally extremely rich.

The machete and steel sword slashed at each other, and a gap immediately broke in the blade.

But it's half-chopped and half-smashed, and a little chipping is nothing.

Chu Zihang's arm sank, and the strength of the orc boss was really strong, not worse than when he had not yet become a space soldier.

It seems that it is unrealistic to kill by force, and he can only win by skill.

Chu Zihang pulled out another sword from his waist with his backhand, and the orc boss was caught off guard and immediately had a wound cut on his chest.

The green epidermis flipped open, revealing the thick muscle fibers inside.

"It's a pity."

He sighed.

If it weren't for the leather armor, this sword would have been at least a centimeter deep.

"Ah, despicable little shrimp."

The orc boss shouted angrily, and slashed his head with the handle of the knife with both hands.

Swinging a knife with one hand can make Chu Zihang feel difficult, let alone a hateful blow with both hands.

He wasn't prepared to resist the blow, and he stepped back half a foot to the side with his footsteps.

Although it is still within the range of the machete, it can also avoid its edge.

Just as Chu Zihang was about to defend and counterattack, the orc boss's angry eyes suddenly became dull, and the hands that should have fallen also stayed in mid-air.

"Huh?"

Although he doesn't know what's going on, he definitely won't let go of this opportunity.

As soon as the twin swords turned, they were about to behead the orc boss.

"Stop, Brother Chu Zihang."

The orc boss suddenly spoke, his voice still rough and ugly, but the tone was completely different.

"War Leader?"

Chu Zihang deflected the blade of the sword, his face shocked.
