，

Immediately the trumpets sounded in the barracks of Naian, and more soldiers poured out of the tents and ran to their posts as fast as they could.

Under the angry shouts and shouts of the professional officers, the cavalry, hoplites, archers, ballistas, and all the troops quickly moved into action. Facing the orcs in a battle formation.

The positions of the different arms were orderly and neatly formed, and the soldiers of the 10th Eastern Legion, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, clenched their weapons and looked at the enemy on the opposite side solemnly.

At this moment, I saw the formation of the orcs. Suddenly rushed out of several teams.

These orc warriors swarmed, regardless of what the attack formation was, and ran towards this side with their legs outstretched, shouting and rushing towards Lorraine.

And to the surprise of Lorraine and their Naian army, half of the team in the formation of the orcs did not take any action, and honestly stayed in place, like a group of bystanders,

Immediately after, a rapid drum beat sounded behind the orcs.

The orc warriors around Vichin and Torek waved their battle flags and shouted loudly.

"back. ”

"There are no brains. ”

Legion Commander Phildoris has been on the battlefield for a long time. Seeing this, he couldn't help but have a gleam in his eyes, and said hurriedly: "My lord, take this opportunity to eliminate half of them first." ”

Lorraine shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't look at these orcs, they're not that stupid. But it's good to let everyone move a little. It's a drill. ”

With his order, the horn trombone, the military flag waved. The Naian Legion was mobilized in an orderly manner.

The archers on both flanks stepped forward and shot at the corners. The Chinese hoplites raised their towers, shields, and heavy spears, ready to engage the enemy.

The ironclad cavalry instigated their horses and began to move on the flanks, ready to weave through the flanks in a roundabout way.

At this moment, a long and mournful horn was heard from the half-orc army opposite, and the half-orc team that was about to rush up suddenly stopped.

The orcs stood extremely valiantly out of range of their bows and arrows, spitting and farting at the human camp, pointing at the breaker and scolding.

Immediately afterwards, I saw that the cavalry on this side had lined up and was ready to charge. They immediately retreated several times faster than when they came.

The corps commander Ferdoris was about to order an attack, but now he had no chance, so he couldn't help laughing angrily and scolded in a low voice: "The military order is unknown, and each of them fights." There is no army in the advance, and there is no order in the retreat. And he is greedy for life and afraid of death, reckless and unscrupulous, such an opponent can be regarded as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Lorraine also nodded with a smile and said, "Your Excellency the Legion Commander has seen a good thing. However, "

He changed his voice and continued, "Still, we can't despise them. After all, there are a lot of them, not to mention 100,000 half-orcs, even 100,000 pigs for us to kill, and they can also exhaust the soldiers to death.

Do you see any black army in the middle? According to the intelligence, it is the leader of this half-orc alliance, the Dulchy. ”

Legion Commander Ferdoris raised his hand and looked south for a while, then nodded and said, "There is still a bit of an army, and the other orcs are just like a gang of bandits."

However, it is not impossible, as long as their flanks are lured out to defeat them, the black half-orc force will definitely be scattered by their own people in formation, and then they will be charged with cavalry. Hmph, they don't even have a chance to retreat. ”

Lorraine chucked his jaw slightly and said, "It's okay, when the war officially starts, we will fight the tribes on both sides." Let's see how these Dulche people play after the flank collapses. ”

The orc warriors who rushed out saw that their flanks were completely exposed, while their companions behind not only did not move their heels, but also looked at themselves gloatingly, shouting: "Go up, we support you spiritually." ”

But he almost didn't say clearly: Go and die. Don't worry, after you die, I will take care of your wife and daughter or something.

They had no choice but to retreat in frustration. Then there was another set of old accusations against each other, and their own people scolded their own people.

There was a stalemate on the battlefield for a while.

The orcs were dismantling each other's platforms. Noisy and noisy.

On Lorraine's side, he saw that there was a rift between the orcs, and of course he wanted to use it as much as possible to see if there was any possibility of dividing the enemy, and if it could cause them to fight, of course it would be better.

In addition, due to the fact that it is not early, if you attack now, it will inevitably turn into a bad battle. Once it hits the night, the night eye of the half-orcs will take a lot of advantage, and Lord Lorraine will definitely not suffer this loss.

It wasn't until the sun set in the west that the orc camp was almost formed. When it comes to the degree of camping, the orcs are indeed not covered.

Although their camp was not good, it was just a tent and people could sleep, but it was better than chaos enough. Lorraine was very suspicious that if he threw all the cavalry into it, they would not get lost inside

At this moment, a long horn sounded from the orc's side.

After a long confrontation with the human army. They finally retreated to the camp first, and almost instantly, countless fires rose in the orc camp.

Lorraine pouted, even if it was too busy today, then stood up and stretched, and said, "Collect the troops, let's have dinner."

Oh, by the way, herald soldiers, the sky is dry, and the heart is on fire. ”

Legion Commander Phildoris was stunned for a moment. Then he glanced at the dry grassland in front of him, smiled and nodded, and said, "Yes, my lord." I understand. ”

After sunset in the west, the land was dark.

In the whining cold wind, the sky darkened little by little. In the end, there is only the bright starlight.

There is only a hazy haze on the prairie... Sixty-two, the light on the opposite side, indicating the location of the orc camp"

Vera leaned against the wooden railing of the watchtower, cowering her head to avoid the cold wind. Pulled up the coat on his body. and rubbed his face vigorously. Dissatisfied pushed Lorraine next to him, and said, "Young master, let's go back, it's cold." The orcs probably won't come. It's all late."

As he spoke, he opened his mouth again and yawned.

Lorraine couldn't help but smile bitterly.

After returning to camp today. As soon as I heard that I said that there would be orcs attacking the camp tonight, I arranged for personnel to ambush them halfway. Vera was like hearing something funny, and she pulled herself screaming and making trouble, so she had to follow along.

In desperation, he had no choice but to take Vera to the watchtower in the center of the camp after dinner.

The moment the net began, Vera was holding a large bag of snacks. As he threw it into his mouth, he looked south with his head cocked, and every three minutes he asked Lorraine, "Why haven't you come yet?" ”

Lorraine was just an old god looking up and counting the stars in the sky.

By the time Vera tore open the third paper bag, she was already patting her mouth and yawning. Then he was bored and pulled Lorraine to chat.

"A few days ago, there was a store in the city."

"Hmm. Lorraine snorted.

"The food sold is delicious."

Perverse. ”

"It's just a little bit more expensive. ”

"Huh. "Young master give it to me."

"No, I can't. ”

"I haven't said it yet. ”

"No, I can't. ”

"Chi"

"Yes"

"Whew...... Huvira fell asleep.

Lorraine turned her head to look at Vera's head little by little. Dumbfounded, he picked up the blanket next to him and still had Vera on top of her.

At this moment, there was a sound of soft footsteps, and a Praetorian Guard mage walked over and whispered, "My lord, they are here." ”

Vera suddenly jumped up from her chair, poked her head out, pinched her fingers, and said in a hurry: "I'm just waiting to set the fire." ”

She looked around. Then he turned back in disappointment and said, "Young Master, no?"

Lorraine sighed softly, pinched Vera's smooth chin, and turned her head to the side. "Don't make a sound, keep your eyes open and look there." ”

Even if it's just starlight. Nor does it affect the dragon's vision, Vera sees, on the west side of the camp. A figure is sneakily touching this way. The orcs in front of them all had bows and arrows in their hands.

The sound of the whirring wind muffled the sound of them stepping on the dry grass, night raids were the usual way of warfare for the orcs, and they sneaked over this way, if it hadn't triggered the magic alarms set by the mages around the camp, it would have been difficult for humans to see them in this dark night when there was no moon.

The soldiers in the camp sprang into action. But I'm afraid that the fat that is about to reach my mouth will slip again, and everyone is worried. All I heard was the sound of shredded footsteps and the sound of armor.

The soldiers whispered cautiously, and the officers lowered their voices to order.

"Orcs are indeed very intelligent. Lorraine said suddenly.

"Huh?" said Verage, "What do you say?"

"The night attack approaches from downwind to avoid the sounds and smells being known to the other party too soon. Thus exposing his whereabouts, but" Lorraine shrugged his shoulders and said: "In autumn and winter, in the grasslands and woods from the downwind, I am sorry if I don't burn them." Vera. Tell me about their location and number of people. ”

"Oh," Vera poked her head out. Said slowly: "That, it's still six hundred feet away from us, how many people" Anyway, that area is full of people. A piece of black pressing. I know how to count it. ”

The officer's voice gave the order, saying, "Mark 600 to 700 feet." Rocket. ”

Vera jumped over, smiled sweetly at the officer, and said, "This big brother." I'll be the first to put it. ”

The legion glanced at Lorraine hesitantly, saw that Lorraine nodded in agreement, and said, "Okay sister." ”

"Good, good. Vera jumped for joy, pulled out her magic and ran to the front of the archers, waving her wand and gathering fireballs.

"Ignition, ready. ”

At the officer's order, the archers quickly lit the arrows wrapped in oil cloths, followed by a creaking sound of pulling the bowstring.

Vera shouted heroically, "Put." He threw the fireball out.

A rain of fire flew out of the camp.

The orcs, who were stooping and sneaking, screamed loudly when they saw the light of fire in the sky.

"Exposed. ”

"Run, retreat. Fall back. ”

"Withdraw what. Rush up in one breath and follow me. ”

"Run. ”

"Kill. ”

And while they were not knowing where to advance, they heard it." With a bang, the fireball smashed on the ground, and a brilliant explosion erupted, and the flames slammed up to the height of a three-story building, instantly engulfing all the orcs in the flames.

followed the overwhelming rocket head-on, until the moldy one was shot by the rocket, and his body fell to the ground with a squeaky scorching sound.

The withered yellow hay was ignited in an instant, and the whole meadow burst into flames, and the bright light of the fire illuminated the sky and the frightened faces of the orcs.

Lorraine could see the orcs struggling in the flames from a distance, the orcs inside the fire were fleeing in panic, and those outside the fire were fleeing back in a desperate manner.

Now, without waiting for the officer to speak, the archer took up his bow and arrow, and fired viciously at the fleeing half

Person.

Even in the limelight, soon black soot drifted down from the sky, and a pungent smell of smoke followed, accompanied by the miserable howl of the orcs in the fire, which made people's stomachs uncomfortable.

The Flame Child expands outwards with impunity. The most recent has been on the edge of the camp. If they had done a good job of fire prevention when they were camping, they could only watch this fire burn to wherever it was.

When the barbecue was being held outside just now, the soldiers in the camp were still sleeping separately, at most they were woken up and scolded for a while.

Wait until the firelight illuminates half of the sky. The soldiers all ran out of their tents. Huddle in front of the camp and watch the spectacular fires outside.

The half-orc camp on the opposite side also became lively, beating gongs and drums, making noise, and the noise was clearly transmitted to Lorraine.

Seeing that the scope of the fire was getting bigger and bigger, these half-orcs came to their senses, and if they didn't act, they would soon burn themselves.

A number of orcs ran out of the camp with torches, and also set fire to the hay in front of them, burning a barrier.

And the orcs who came out to sneak attack were not so lucky. They were caught between two fires. Running south, they could only crash into the fire started by the orcs, and as the fire grew larger, they could only be driven by the flames to flee west.

Everyone knows that in the grassland, whether it is animals or people, they can't outrun wildfires. They can only hope that they can touch a river or a ditch or something that can stop the spread of the fire. Watching the half-orcs who came out to sneak attack, they were chased by the flames and ran farther and farther away in the light of the fire. Eventually, it disappeared into darkness. Lorraine shook her head and said in her heart: It's a pity. This kind of fire can be set off like this once. Then he looked down at Vera who was arching on the wooden fence and staring excitedly at the fire.

make move

Looking at the fire in front of him, Lorraine suddenly had a vague idea in his mind, and he frowned and pondered. This fire burned spectacularly. Not even the soldiers of Ne had seen it, and there were bursts of exclamations from below.

Vera slapped her hands and threw away the grass ash that fell to her side, while looking at her results with a smile, seeing Lorraine staring at him with a frown, she turned her head and waved at Lorraine, and her eyes were crooked with joy.

After dragging his head on the top of the fortress, Ferdoris shouted to the soldiers below: "Don't play, go to sleep, there will be a war tomorrow, close the team, close the team, close the team." ”

The archers below were especially excited, the rockets had not been released before, but this time they were the most enjoyable, they shouted "roar", and the team retreated complacently.

The guards around Lorraine slapped Lorraine's ass, and sighed behind Lorraine's buttocks: "Adults are like gods." ”

Lorraine smiled and patted her head. Then he waved his hand modestly and said, "Not anymore." There are so many tribes of them, and there are always a few people who have their brains pumped out and will think of picking up the bargain. ”

It wasn't until after dawn that Lorraine got up and looked. As far as the eye could see, the entire land turned black, and puffs of green smoke flew out of the ashes. Blown away in the morning breeze. A layer of ash had fallen on the tent, and the ground was covered with black-gray marks that had been stepped on.

A piece near the camp, the ground was strewn and scattered. It was a charred corpse.

A group of soldiers ran out of the camp and trampled on the ashes, splashing the boss with dust with every foot, which soon stained them black.

These soldiers only had sad faces. He stepped forward and carefully examined the corpses that had died in the fire one by one, looking at their strange expressions. You can know that the appearance of those orcs is ugly enough.

The horn blew in the orc camp, first loudly, and then one after another.

Soon the orc soldiers drove out of the camp. In the ashes of this place, facing Lorraine, they began to line up.

Originally, after a long march and the noise of the previous night, the orcs should have rested for two days. Fight against humanity again.

But in desperation, they couldn't wait. They have little food left, and if they can't find supplies, they will have to go hungry, and at that time, the Qianli grassland will be their open-air cemetery.

This time, the orcs poured out of the nest, intending to use their superiority in strength to defeat the humans on the opposite side as much as possible, and go straight to the human city in front.

Vichin and Torek promised to open the gates of the human city, so that everyone could rush in and grab it. These orc patriarchs, it is rare to have a unified opinion, and they pulled out the younger brother to fight with Lorraine.

The formation of the orcs was not thick, but it was wide, and coupled with the inviolable space between each tribe, twenty thousand orc soldiers lined up in a long line.

Above the heads of the orcs, countless banners depicting various totems fluttered in the wind.

Lorraine moved a chair and sat on the top floor of the fortress. Suddenly I looked up at the sky, the bright sun was shining on the earth, and the sky was cloudless. The chilly autumn wind blew across the battlefield, carrying black ashes through between the two armies and flying to the east.

"If Adele is here, she will complain that it is not good for her skin. The thought popped into Lorraine's head for no apparent reason.

His eyes crossed the half-orc formation, crossed Sensen's tent, and looked at the prairie on the horizon, Lorraine reached out and grabbed it in the void, and muttered, "Mine, it's all mine."

Vera wrinkled her nose, tilted her head to look at Lorraine, and said in her heart: The appearance of the young master, why is it so familiar!

Immediately after, Ney'an's soldiers spread out their formation at the top of the slope, with projection troops at the front, crossbowmen sticking a few arrows at their feet, staring at the orcs in front of them, estimating the distance and the direction of the wind.

The main force of the heavy infantry in the army, dressed in the iron armor of the Ruman Empire, holds a tall tower shield in one hand and a long sword in the other.

The officers shuttled between the two columns of soldiers. Checking each one, the man's equipment, while yelling: "Everyone, cover the left side of the other, it is strictly forbidden to break away from the phalanx." No retreat is allowed without an order. (To be continued)
