Chapter Thirty-Eight: Chris Eats Deflated

At Chris's request, Hagen had the soldiers conduct a careful search of the tents and houses.

Of course, they found nothing but some necessities for life.

But to avoid surprises, Hagen brought it all together.

At least if it really doesn't burn, it won't spread so quickly.

"Chris, you've piled food and other things separately from household items as you said. ”

Although it was already dusk, Hagen still did not go to rest.

"Well, at least that won't cause a widespread fire, but be careful not to burn the food, supplies here aren't so fast. ”

"Well, I've written to the carriage in the capital to be ready at all times. ”

Chris was about to say something, but was interrupted by the rapid ringing of the city's bells.

"Is it another enemy attack?"

Hagen looked a little impatient: "How many times has this been?"

In fact, Chris has been very uncomfortable these days.

At this time of the day, almost at the same time, the orcs send a small team to harass them.

Because it was evening, the soldiers' meal time was interrupted.

"It's the fifth time. Chris said as he walked towards the wall. "What the hell are these orcs thinking? Do you think that a small number of troops can break through the gates?"

As before, although the knights had some complaints, they still rode their horses and went out to fight.

But it's not so much about fighting as it is about driving the right one.

Because as soon as the knights go out, the guys riding the wolves will quickly retreat.

Chris also thought of using the method of encirclement, but he did not have a mage who could unleash a wide range of magic.

"If only Ariel were here. Chris said, looking at the knights below.

However, this time the battle situation was somewhat unexpected by Chris.

This time it wasn't just the wolves who rode it, there were also some more creatures in the sky that were similar to wurms. The orcs on their backs carried in their hands what seemed to be forks. Throwing it down.

"That's an orc's Betsy Pterodactyl. Hagen looked down at the knights below, who were not afraid of wolf rides, but had nothing to do with these heavenly things. "Chris, do you want the archers to attack?"

"No, the knights are still under the city, so if you miss, you will accidentally hurt the knights. Chris's heart was also desperately thinking about a way.

"And what about letting the mage unleash the magic?"

"Maybe it's not enough distance, and maybe it's going to be a target for those guys. Chris frowned, "Hagen." Hurry up and let the dragon knights prepare to attack, although I don't want to use it, but this is the only way. ”

The Dragon Knight is one of the most valuable assets of the Empire, and the number of this class is difficult to increase, so Chris generally doesn't use it much.

Hagen's order was soon reached, and one by one wurms began to rise from the city, quickly taking the initiative.

Although they are only wurms, they have all been honed by time, and they must be much more powerful than those who can only fly in the sky.

Saw the dragon knight's sortie. The wolf riders and wyverns soon began to retreat.

"Chase. Seeing this, Chris decisively ordered: "Since the dragon knights have been dispatched, continue to pursue, otherwise they will still come to harass like this in the future." ”

The red smoke representing the attack rose, and the dragon knights who had received the order did not hesitate and continued to pursue the wyvern and wolf riders who had fled.

―――――――――――――――――― cutting ――――――――――――――――――――

"Lord Yu, I have received news that the dragon knights and cavalry are in pursuit. "In a tent near the front. A fox girl lowered her head and said to Bai Yu.

"After a few days of harassment, he still can't calm down after all?" Bai Yu smiled: "Sure enough, I can't help it as soon as there is sweetness." Now go and give the order, let the cavalry on both sides leave the dragon knight alone. Go directly to the siege of the city gates, where the inner should be reached. ”

"Also, let those bats with their butts on fire move, I thought it would take a few days. Immediately after the operation, he withdrew and surrounded the dragon knight with the wyvern. The soldiers on the ground left it alone. ”

"Got it, sir. ”

The results were soon realized.

With a huge explosion at the city gate, Bai Yu's plan also kicked off.

"What's going on?" Chris was startled by the loud explosion.

"Looks like the gate has exploded?" Hagen noticed the unusual appearance of the gate. "It wasn't like the soldiers accidentally blew up the incendiary bombs, right?"

"Is it a spy?" Chris snapped out of the two assassins who had assassinated Anne earlier. Since the Orcs have such an existence as Assassins who can be disguised, it is also possible to blend in with a few soldiers after that battle.

Immediately afterward, Chris noticed dust rising in the distance, as if two large groups of cavalry were beginning to march towards the gate of the defensive line.

And his knights had just gone after the enemy, and now there were only infantry and mages in the city.

However, infantry could not compete with cavalry. The number of mages was not large enough to withstand those cavalry.

"Oops, hit!" Chris, though surprised at why the orc commander was so shrewd this time, had no time to think about it now.

"Hurry up and let the heavy infantry block the city gates, don't let the cavalry in, the archers are ready at the city walls, and the mages support the infantry. ”

At this point, Chris can only find a way to remedy it.

But as he and Hagen stepped off the walls, bat-like flying units appeared in the distant sky.

"Oops! That's an orc bat, you can throw incendiary bombs down!"

"Damn!" Chris complained, and his own dragon knights just happened to go out to chase those cavalry. There are now no units capable of resisting these bats.

If the archers were to come, the accuracy would be low, and it would put more pressure on the infantry guarding the city gates.

This series of actions seemed to be calculated, first using mental tactics to let himself send troops to pursue, and to support the dragoons, and then let Neiying blow up the city gates, and then send air units when he had no air units.

Damn, what the hell is going on with the orcs this time.

"Let all the remaining units go to the defense food and prepare the water!" Chris hurriedly ordered, these bats throwing incendiary bombs were undoubtedly going for the food, and if there was no food, he would have to withdraw from here.

Sure enough, I thought they were misleading by planting combustibles? It would have been better if the food had been kept in the house now.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.

The bats flew straight into the city after ignoring the attacks of a handful of archers, but their goal was not food.

Instead, they threw Molotov cocktails directly into the city.

What's even more terrifying is that these incendiary bombs were thrown on the ground, and they really burned as if they were dropped on cotton.

"Oops! It turns out that those orcs poured burning liquid in the city before!" This series of surprises made Chris already a little overwhelmed.

Immediately afterwards some of the soldiers jumped down from the bats and began to flank the soldiers at the gate from behind, and the bats flew back, but they seemed to be preparing to flank the dragoons in front.

"Chris, retreat!" Hagen said hurriedly, looking at the already burning city.

"But as soon as we withdrew, the line of defense. ”

"If we continue like this, we will only run out of troops, do you think that the dragoons will be wiped out?"

“......”

After hesitating for a while, green smoke rose from the city on behalf of the retreat, which could be regarded as a signal to the dragoons.

Although they were a little panicked, the soldiers hurriedly formed a formation and retreated.

The defense line of the wild land fell into the hands of the orcs.

(I'm going to be busy from tomorrow, so I guess I'll be on a shift every day, but I'll make up for it on the weekend.) (To be continued......)
