Chapter 395: The veteran is out

,

The first sentence of the emergency startled Lorraine.

As early as when Croni was in Cronnie City, after several days of reconnaissance by Vera, Lorraine determined that there were only 20,000 half-orcs in front of Croni City, so he dared to lead the army south to meet them.

Originally, Lorraine Jigo eliminated this group of orcs, which could relieve the pressure on Crony City. Squeeze out surplus forces to support areas where the military is weak.

It turns out that there are also smart people among the orcs, and there are quite a few of them.

Even if it is not like Lorraine, there is a dragon-shaped reconnaissance plane of Vera's level, which can always keep abreast of the dynamics of the front line, but the half-orc scouts are not given for nothing.

The orcs knew early on that there was a human army south of Crony City, waiting for the orcs with the Scorpion King as the head to fight them head-on.

And a hundred and ten miles east of these 20,000 orcs, there was also a team of half-orcs composed of several tribes with a scale of 10,000 people.

After learning the news that Lorraine and the Emperor ** team were about to fight the Durchi, the patriarchs immediately realized that the opportunity had come.

More than 10,000 orcs immediately pulled out of camp, relying on the guidance of a few orc slaves who had escaped from the human world, and marched almost day and night to Crony City.

At that time, due to the pre-war battle, Lorraine asked Vera to only pay attention to whether the enemy on the opposite side was ambushed, and did not dare to let Vera go out and turn too far, which left a gap for these orcs.

"Careless, Lorraine slapped his forehead. sighed heavily, and secretly said in his heart: I still have a little bit of a loss for the other, but this is also something that there is no way to do. After all, the battle line is too long. His own troops are too small. There's really no way to take care of it.

And he didn't expect that these orcs were really brainless, and they dared to divide their troops before they could solve themselves, and they also went deep alone and attacked the city behind them.

It's really the old saying, "Meat eaters." One can never overestimate the IQ of those who inherited the position of patriarch from Lao Tzu and the second ancestors

Thankfully, the orcs didn't pose much of a threat to Crony City. When they arrived a few dozen miles away from Croney City, General Larry had already received the scout's report and had the exact news.

At that time, there were only 3,000 regular troops in the city of Crony. There were 5,000 militiamen, but most of them were armed citizens and farmers. The combat effectiveness is not high, and it is okay to defend the city, but it is not good to let them go out to attack.

However, "ginger is still old and spicy." "General Larry is not good at politics. I don't understand the whiskers and shoot the horse. But as a generation of heroes Lord Wei said, the more people who can't make sycophants, the more capable they are.

At that time, the defenders of Kroni City unanimously asked to defend the city, and at the same time asked Lorraine for help, and when the time came, none of these orcs wanted to escape.

But General Larry simply refused this Jianyì, he knew that Lorraine was fighting against the orcs twice the size of the emperor's ** team, and there was no room for distraction at the moment.

I really want Lorraine to ask for help, and when the time comes, Lorraine can't withdraw even if he wants to, and he will fall with his tail behind his back, maybe under Crony City, it will become a chaotic battle. Against all odds, General Larry decided not to ask Lorraine for help, knowing that the orcs were on the way. The action must be frivolous, so he set a trap in the city of Cronie.

Two days ago, under the city of Croney.

The convoy transporting supplies outside the city lined up in a long line, as if it was stuck in traffic, and stopped motionless on the main road outside the city gate.

It can't be helped, there are too many vehicles, and the city gate is so big. It takes a lot of time to inspect the registration office, and today it seems that something is happening at the gate of the city, and a large group of people have gathered at the gate, shouting around the guards at the gate, and the whole gate is blocked tightly.

The guards of the convoy have been blowing the autumn wind outside the city for a while, their faces have been blown dry, the guards can only lick their dry lips, tightly scold their mothers impatiently in the back, and they can't wait to simply throw the car away, squat on the side of the road and gamble.

The officers who patrolled the front and rear of the convoy on their horses all had tense faces and solemn expressions, but they only did not see the behavior of their subordinates.

Looking at their appearance, they are also a little impatient. Frequently look at the city.

A few ordinary people with their families and families rushed to the city of Cronie, and they were probably the last people to withdraw into the city.

The soldiers kept their spears on the side, squatting on the ground to gamble, and the few people passing by were not angry to watch them shout excitedly.

An old man with a gray head pulled a soldier on the side of the road and asked, "Brother Bu, what are you transporting?"

The soldier glanced at him and said angrily, "Military supplies." ”

"It's not like that!" the old man muttered to himself, "Look at your ruts, the indentation is so shallow, which is loaded with military supplies." There are now more than 100,000 people in the city, and there is not enough food to eat. ”

The soldier waved his hand and said, "I am a soldier." How to know. Maybe it's horse feed. ”

The old man smiled and said: Brother, you are fooling people, and you need to wrap the oil cloth so tightly to transport hay. ”

The old man knocked on the oilcloth on the car with his cane, and made a "boom" sound, and said strangely: "Huh, why does the car look like wood?"

The soldier waved his hand impatiently and said, "I said, old man, why do you care so much, hurry up and walk your way, maybe it's for the winter."

The old man took the abduction and said, "No matter what." The half-orcs raised by the son of a bitch are here, and the old saying has boiled our family about the city and the military disaster, I don't know if it is bad to make trouble for so many people in the city of Shigongzhen, if it is so bad that there is no food or drink, what will we farmers do?"

"You old," the soldier grinned, not knowing how to speak.

At this time, an officer rode up to him, and with a black face, he shouted loudly: "What happened here?"

The soldier hurriedly stood up and said loudly: "Captain, this old man has been asking questions. ”

The old man bent down to the officer on his horse. A hearty smile.

The officer glanced back and forth, turned his head to look at the horizon behind him, and said impatiently: "You, send these people to the city, hurry up." ”

"Huh?" the soldier was stunned for a moment by this strange order, and said, "That, me"

The officer flicked his horsewhip and shouted, "If you want to go, you will go, send them all in in a quarter of an hour, and come back quickly." ”

"Yes," the soldier agreed, pulling at the old man. Urged: "Hurry up, hurry up." ”

When he walked through the city gate, the old man watched a group of officers gather at the gate and talk nonsense, but he didn't care about the big car parked at the city gate, and he didn't mean to rush to the city at all.

Only the city gate hole was empty, and a row of horse-drawn carriages blocked the city gate hole.

The old man was very angry when he saw that the officers were not doing their job, and wanted to stop and teach them a few words. A high-ranking officer at the gate waved his hand impatiently and said, "Hurry up, pass through the side street." ”

The soldiers hurriedly dragged him into the city.

Watching them enter, the people at the door seemed to be relieved.

In a few moments, a cavalry rushed straight to the city gate from a distance. Roll over and jump off the horse.

The officer at the city gate looked up into the distance and asked, "Have all the people outside been evacuated?"

The cavalry straightened up and said, "Yes, my lord." There are no civilians left nearby. ”

The officer nodded with satisfaction and said, "Sue everyone, your eyes are bright, and our punishment cannot be missed." ”

"Yes!"

"Why haven't you entered the city yet?" The guards behind waited until their stomachs were hungry, but when they saw the officers at the city gate, they still didn't have any intention of moving their nests, and they hid behind and cursed. "Dangdang Dang"

Suddenly, a rapid bell rang. Following the sound of yelling and screaming from the city wall, there was a panic at the city gate, and the officers blocking the city gate quickly disappeared.

The soldiers looked at each other and wondered, "What is this sound?"

One of the soldiers suddenly shouted, "Hell, it's a wake-up call, someone is coming." ”

The guards panicked and ran around in a hurry, hurrying to lead their carriages. Pulling the reins, he wanted to hurry the horse into the city.

The officers rode past the convoy and shouted, "Cut off the wheels and belts, and hurry the horses into the city." The carriage is gone, quick, quick. Bastards, what are you still doing in a daze, bringing the horses in. ”

The soldiers who heard the order did not dare to slack off, drew their weapons, cut the belt on the horse, pulled the reins and pulled the horse and ran into the city.

For a while, people on the avenue roared and neighed, and there was a mess.

The soldiers behind the convoy turned their heads to look. In the distance, a large group of cavalry was hurrying towards the city gate, and behind them, there were black figures on the horizon, and there were thousands of people coming towards them.

An officer came to the end of the line, pointed to a few soldiers, and yelled: "What are you rubbing, come in, the orcs are coming." Throw your spears on the ground, a few of you. Don't. Damn, hurry up, I'm going to be killed by you. ”

"Captain, how can you lose the guy who eats?" asked the soldier suspiciously.

"What so much nonsense, if you want to throw it, you will throw it. The officer flicked his horsewhip and said hurriedly: "Leave the car alone, follow me." ”

Three orc chiefs were on a slope. Look at the city of Cronnie, a few miles away.

At this moment, the human beings are panicking to drop the cart full of supplies and rush to the city, and in the city of Crony, the rapid bell has already sounded, and the soldiers on the city wall are running around.

It's two miles away from the Gates of Croney. A squad of the most powerful troops made purely by the Orcs. The assault team composed of wolf cavalry is all rushing towards the city gate.

Huge black sitting wolves, carrying the most powerful warriors of the orc clan, lined up, rolled up the dust on the ground, and rushed straight to the city gate with a dignified voice.

Behind them. It was the orc cavalry, wielding this weapon, screaming, following the wolf cavalry, staring feverishly at the human gates.

Two miles behind the cavalry, a large army of orcs was galloping with the cavalry. Under the powerful body of the half-orcs, the degree of these people is not slow at all.

The three orc patriarchs looked nervously at the human gates. Pray that the sturdy door will not be closed.

Their blood-red eyes widened, their faces were hideous, and they didn't gasp, the excited blood rushed to their heads, and the tendons on their heads jumped.

The patriarchs waved their fists and yelled at the orcs in front: "Rush, take the city gate at any cost." ”

"Conquer the city, everyone can live enough in this life. ”

"Kill, kill!"

Two miles passed in an instant, and the wolf cavalry at the head of the platoon bypassed the taxi blocking the city gate and rushed into the city gate through the gap.

As soon as the orcs in the back saw that they had managed to rush into the city before the humans closed the city gates, they roared feverishly, with a roar of greed and cruelty, which further aroused the blood of the orcs.

In their opinion, as long as they rush to the "city wall, and hit the city where they have never begged, it must be his bamboo deception, although the armor of the human race is powerful, but it can't stop them from being numerous.

The three patriarchs laughed at the same time.

"Ancestral Soul Assured, we succeeded. We did it. ”

"I've never dreamed of such a big city, and now, it's ours, and every qiΔ“ in it is ours. Patriarch of Dorieta. You will be the hero of our steppe for eternity. ”

The orc patriarch known as Doretta resisted the great sword. Looking at Cronie City with a wild smile, there was a shocking shout of killing from inside the city gate.

Patriarch Doreta said proudly: "It has been a thousand years, a thousand years, and we have finally achieved the greatest victory in the war against mankind. Patriarch Aulerchi, Patriarch Viridu, this glory also belongs to you. ”

The Patriarch of Aurelch watched the infantry also follow the footsteps of the cavalry and rushed into the city gate, thinking that the big thing was decided, and all that was left was the soldiers who slaughtered all the humans in the city, and sighed. Hanging his eyes, he said disdainfully: "Vichin and Torek, that idiot. Now he is still fighting with humans in the south, who knows that we have picked up the cheap, that dead scorpion that has not grown all his hair, he really thinks that he is the boss of the grassland, wait and see how he faces us

Doretta waved his hand and said, "I still want to thank that scorpion, if he hadn't lured this and the human army in the city away, I wouldn't have thought of this way." ”

Patriarch Viridhu rubbed his chin, his sinister eyes flashed with greed, and he said with compassion: "When that scorpion and the human have exhausted their men, then we will go south again, and slaughter the human army and the dead scorpion together, from the grassland to the human land." That's all a few of us. ”

After speaking, he clutched his stomach and burst out with a sharp laugh.

Doretta narrowed his eyes in confusion, and said with a smile: "Okay, everything belongs to you." I just need that woman

Olerci and Verrido looked at each other. Then he swallowed greedily.

The shouts of slaughter at the gates grew louder and louder, mixed with screams and wails, as if the orc patriarch thought it was the most beautiful music in the world.

Thousands of orcs are crowded at the gate of the city at this moment, scrambling to kill in the city, so they even scramble on the avenue, pick up their weapons and face the orcs around them first.

Anxious orcs climb into the cart discarded by humans. Tearing the cloth on it, the other orcs also rushed to reach out to the cart, and the goods on the cart fell down at once, crushing the orcs below, but it was just a cart of dry firewood.

The orc cursed in disappointment, then shoved the people in front of him and squeezed into the city.

General Larry was accompanied by a group of officers, on a tall building in the city, looking at the orcs inside and outside the city gates.

The orc cavalry in front, after they stormed into Chengnai, soon encountered the high barricades of the streets, which were built of earth and stone. It was almost twenty feet high, and the barricades were connected in an arc, and the two ends were connected to the city wall, enclosing all the vicinity of the city gate, making an encirclement.

The orc cavalry scurried left and right through the streets, looking for a way out, while the orcs who followed behind scrambled to smash the doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the street, jumping into the houses and looting the contents inside.

But all they were left with was an empty house, and there wasn't even a bench left in it.

Seeing that the orcs who had rushed into the encirclement were already full, General Larry waved his hand. Shen Sheng said: "According to the plan, act." ”

The soldiers on the city wall copied the tarpaulin behind the arrowheads, and quickly fired rockets into carts inside and outside the city, and the rockets continued to fall. There was all the oil under the cart, and after splashing on the sparks, "Coax." With a single sound, piles of wood burst into flames, and fierce flames instantly rose into the sky, enveloping the nearby orcs in flames. The orcs roared and struggled desperately.

The other orcs hurriedly dispersed in all directions. But the avenue was full of lit fires, and these orcs had to avoid both sides.

Especially at the city gate, where the most carts were piled up, a fire soon ignited, and the flames blocked the two rear areas inside and outside the city gate, and the orcs who were still in the city gate cave gathered in panic and couldn't advance or retreat.

With a "clang", the gate made of iron bars as thick as an arm's arm fell from the top of the gate, and the sharp bottom pierced the orc who was under the iron gate neatly, and pierced the corpse to the ground.

Several stone bricks in the city gate cave suddenly shrank back at this time, retreated into the wall, and a door came out of the side of the city gate hole.

In the surprised gaze of the orcs outside the door. A gem at the tip of a staff glowed blindly, and a large number of sharp ice picks shot out of the door.

The ice picks that reflected the firelight came out of a bewitching red color and instantly smashed into the bodies of the surrounding orcs.

Then there was another burst of ice picks, until the entrance cleared the first space.

Legionnaires wrapped in armor poured out of the door, slashing at the orcs with sharp weapons. In just a few minutes, all the orcs in the city gate cave were slashed to the ground, and the soldiers of the Neyan Legion pushed up the heavy gate and slowly closed it.

The gates of Crony City slammed shut in front of thousands of orcs.

The officers in the city shouted hoarsely: "Counterattack, kill his mother." If you want to know,,
