Chapter 176: Battle Damage
Juggling is not a mysterious word in the army system of the Orc Empire, on the contrary, the meaning of this word is understood by almost every orc in every legion, and the army that is called juggling is often the army with the strongest comprehensive combat ability, in the army system of the Orc Empire, the soldiers of these troops are respected by others as magicians, and they have another more resounding name: the king of soldiers!
The king of soldiers, the king of soldiers, this is the highest honor of orc warriors after the reform of the orc empire, the king of soldiers is one in a million, with excellent combat effectiveness, in a certain field, he is like a king, no one can surpass, once he becomes the king of soldiers, he will be called by the empire, and then transferred away from the original legion, as for where to go, few people know, so the king of soldiers began to become a legend in the orc emperor ** team system, and its mystery can even make people feel fear.
When Marlos heard bellows say that his army would play tricks, the first thing he thought of was the Soldier Queen's Supplementary Legion, which was rare in the Empire, and with Malos's authority, he only knew an approximate number, and only one person in the Orc Empire knew the exact number: the Beast Emperor.
This is also an army that even the Imperial God Envoy is not very clear about, although he is responsible for the selection and training of these soldiers in the early stage, but the commander of these people is only the Beast Emperor, but the army of the King of Soldiers is not dispatched at will, so the army that the bellows said will be very likely to be the candidate troops of the King of Soldiers, but it was not said before that they were all ordinary armies, and even recruits and eggs were involved, and the main purpose was to train soldiers?
"Of course it's a recruit, or a recruit who hasn't started, these are all candidate troops for the king of soldiers, and if you want to become a member of the army of the king of soldiers, there's nothing wrong with saying that they are recruits, in addition, don't worry too much about the number issue, it's just a name, there are many numbers in the emperor ** team system, and you don't have to worry about it. Wind Fang seemed to be at ease in the face of Marlos's question, and the bellows had already drawn the situation of the enemy and us on the sand table at this time, and after the flames were extinguished, the Eagle Man's reconnaissance report became more and more detailed, but when the bellows showed all the information that could be collected on the sand table, even the Wind Tooth couldn't help but gasp.
"The prince on the other side is crazy, isn't it? It's all pressed again?" The adjutant of the wolf cavalry looked at the strength mark, and asked in disbelief, Malos glanced at it and said: "If it were me, I would also press it with all my might, and then try it to be a refueling tactic, which has no practical significance, and they do not have an advantage in the terrain, so they have increased the pressure on us in terms of numbers." ”
Erfeng nodded in agreement, and seeing that a group of heralds were already in place, Fengya took a deep breath and said: "Pass my order, after the enemy enters the firing range, start to attack, and the air troops will attack another wave, hit the opponent's archers, and then rest for two hours, and after two hours, intervene in the battlefield, is there a problem?"
"Report sir, there is no problem. After saying that, the eagle general turned around and left the tent, the eagle man troops really need to rest, but they have decided to face off with the opponent head-on, so it is still okay to send them some desserts, anyway, the opponent's griffin troops have been disabled, and the range of the ground troops' bows and arrows is not reachable, and it is very convenient for them to weaken the opponent's long-range strength as much as possible.
The eagle man, who had been waiting in the air for the order, immediately lifted up after receiving the order, and after the large number of eagle men gathered together, a huge black and gold column was formed, and the top of the rear column slowly pressed down from the air, and the target of the column was the Kotler Imperial soldiers who had begun to climb the pit on the first line of defense.
The rain of arrows roared again, but with the shields of the infantry, the casualties of the Kotler Empire were not large, with the movement of the column, the rain of arrows began to slowly move towards the rear of the main force of the Kotler Empire, and the rain of arrows slowly began to become sparse, it seems that the eaglemen have used up the crossbow arrows, and even the orcs should not be able to withstand the repeated battles, right?
When the human general came up with this idea, the prince frowned, the group of fools under his command did not notice that the eagle people had already been supplied once in the morning air battle, and their standard crossbow arrows should be more than twenty per person, according to the current level, the air eagle people should only use about half of it, and there must be some special purpose for reducing the offensive at this time.
Just as the prince ordered to strengthen the defense of the rear army, the column that had been moving parallel suddenly changed, the eagle man led by first raised the height, and then the column stood together again, the prince's eyes narrowed and suddenly realized something, and before he opened his mouth, he saw the column fall again, and with it, some black debris shrouded the entire archer phalanx.
But everyone knew that it was not debris, but feather arrows, like a rainstorm of feather arrows in pieces to shoot down the weakly defended archers of the empire, although the eagle man and this rain was unexpected, some of the archers on the ground even loosened the bowstring that had been tightened, and the soldiers of those large crossbow machines should have relaxed their vigilance for the sparse rain of arrows just now, as a result, the eagle man's second attack directly took the lives of nearly a thousand archers, especially in the front of the team, the casualties of the archers were the heaviest, and they became very sparse from the sky。
Then things did not stop there, the follow-up eaglemen continued to gradually expand the attack range of the crossbow arrows to the rear of the archer troops, but the archers who had already been prepared began to counterattack, and the crossbow machine on the ground also shot a three-meter-long crossbow gun into the air, in order to ensure the density of the attack, the formation of the eagleman troops was relatively close, and the crossbow machine made temporarily was naturally greatly reduced, but it still caused damage to the eagle troops, some crossbow guns can even penetrate three eagle people, but the number of crossbow machines is too small, and the damage caused is limited, and after the eagle troops have sorted out the archers on the ground, the casualties of the eagle people have also reached more than 1,000 people。
According to common sense, this kind of attack will always come again, but I don't know why, it may be because of the threat of the crossbow machine, the eagleman troops began to slowly retreat after increasing the height, in addition to shooting the remaining crossbow arrows, the eagleman did not continue to attack other attacks, which made the prince feel a little relieved, after the war, the orc air force has finally reached a fatigue period, to withdraw from the battlefield, in this way, the focus of the war can finally be placed on the ground with confidence.
At the same time that the eaglemen began to retreat, the infantry phalanx in front finally crossed the first line of defense, and reached the ruins of the second line of defense, facing the dense orcs, some human soldiers' hands were a little trembling, and some even couldn't hold their weapons, what they feared was not orcs, not even war, but magic!
The eighth-level magic of the Fire Rain Meteor burned everything in front of him to ashes, and the puddles of metal liquid on the ground that had begun to solidify were mixed with black unknown objects, which were the traces left after the corpse burned, and the powerful and terrifying power of magic was naturally deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the soldiers all looked at the battlefield covered with ashes in front of them with fear, and even completely ignored the orc troops who were confronting them.
Seeing this scene, the prince nodded with satisfaction, it is not terrible to be afraid of the enemy, as long as the fear of his own side surpasses the right, then this is not a problem, now the warriors have realized that this powerful magic is in their own phalanx, therefore, these soldiers will also subconsciously ignore the fear of the orc troops.
As more and more soldiers crossed the first line of defense, in the end, only cavalry and archers were left behind, and the distance between the two armies was only four miles, even ordinary bows and arrows could not reach one-eighth of this distance, since the orcs had no intention of taking the initiative to attack and block, then the human army set up their own formations in a very orderly manner, waiting for the horn of attack to sound.
When the archers also arrived on the battlefield, the main force of the army was already less than a mile away from the ruins of the second line of defense, although it was still not within the range of the bow and arrow, but the prince ordered the shield soldiers to erect the shield wall, and then slowly advanced step by step.
Although the shieldmen were puzzled, they all did so.
Soon they had to say that this was a wise choice, just when the troops advanced less than a hundred meters, the rain of arrows struck again, unlike the aerial strike of the Eagle Man troops, this attack was obviously launched from the ground, because of the protection of the shield wall, so the casualties were not large, but this ultra-long-range attack did startle the soldiers of the Human Empire, if it were not for the order of the prince, I am afraid that the casualties of the troops would have increased exponentially.
The prince's face did not have a hint of joy, because he knew how the casualties were caused, the standard shield equipped by the empire was composed of wood and iron, wood can reduce the weight of the shield, and can provide greater cushion for soldiers in the event of impact, and it is covered with thickened iron sheet to prevent the other party from burning the wood with rockets, this kind of shield is very common in the human empire, because of its practicality, so most of the shield soldiers are equipped with this kind of shield.
However, in the face of the orc's rain of arrows, the practicality of this shield has become a disadvantage, and in addition to the loss of those accidental casualties, the sharpness and strength of the opponent's feather arrows have completely exceeded the shield's capacity.
In the defensive state, the shield soldiers should be tightly attached to the shield to protect the soldiers under the shield from the impact of long-range bows and arrows, so when the feather arrow penetrates the shield, all the shield soldiers have the same expression of disbelief, and then they are either injured or killed, and the intact shield wall begins to collapse in a small area, and many soldiers are exposed to the range of the feather arrows.
The second wave of arrows followed, and the soldiers who had lost the protection of the shield wall began to dodge in a small area in the phalanx, but the casualties were more than double that just now, and the collapse area of the shield wall also increased slightly, which did not attract the prince's attention at the beginning, but when the report of the results caused by the third wave of feather arrows was sent, the prince's face changed again!
The casualties caused by the first wave of arrow rain were only a few hundred, and the number of the second wave of arrow rain has become three zeros, and although the third wave did not fill in a zero, it doubled upward, can the long-range attack of the orc empire really reach this level? The prince looked at the orc phalanx with some disbelief, and now the high platform where the prince is located cannot see where the orc's bow and arrow troops are, and the position chosen by the orcs is not only a pass, but also a slope, which is relatively slow, but it is enough to block the line of sight.
With a sharp whistling sound, the fourth wave of arrows came as promised.
