Section 33 Attack and Defense of Crewe (9)

On the 26th, Pedi got up at 6 a.m. and stayed at the command post.

Most of the staff officers and Chief of Staff Sir Glick in the command post had hardly slept all night, and they had been preparing for the battle that was about to take place today.

A quarter past seven,

Don Wright brought intel, and the Orc Expeditionary Force command didn't make a final decision until breakfast, but one thing was certain... Most of the soldiers of the Orc Fifteenth Banner Regiment have begun to assemble in the Chinese barracks of the Fifteenth Banner Regiment in the northern part of the Been Command.

Pedi was very surprised by the information that Don Wright had brought, because, in any case, the orcs would never be indifferent to the defeat of the goblins in the Kovind territory, after all, it was nearly a third of the strength of the expeditionary coalition.

But that's the way it is,

Pedi waited with doubts until today's battle officially began.

At ten o'clock in the morning, scouts from all over the battlefield reported that there was no abnormality.

The more this happens, the more bottomless Pedi becomes, but now he can't make any big adjustments.

He had to wait before the Eleventh Legion arrived at its designated position, and besides, the current situation was slightly advantageous to him, and it was not impossible to wait for the orcs to strike first.

At the same time, none of his staff officers gave Pedi a single piece of advice that could be used.

At half past three in the afternoon,

News from Viscount Biber came from the Provisional Eighth Combined Regiment in the northwestern part of the Jamich Grassland, a news that surprised and shocked Pedi...

The Eleventh Banner Regiment of the Orcs is not in the grasslands northwest of Garmic!

"Where are they?" Pei Di subconsciously asked the staff officers on the left and right, but no one could answer his question, and when he looked at Don Wright, the other party immediately said, "Give you the answer before dark." With that, he turned and left.

As soon as Don Wright walked out of the command post, Pedi looked at his herald: "Send all our scouts, even if we turn over the entire grassland northwest of Garmichi, I will know the whereabouts of the orc eleventh banner regiment." ”

Several heralds looked at each other and ran out of the command room without even confirming the order.

At this time, the Chief of Staff, Sir Glick, took off the mark of the 11th Flag Regiment on the map, and searched the map in the war room...

Soon, Sir Grek placed the mark of the Eleventh Banner Regiment on the flank of Crewe's Ninth Legion, and then moved the Tenth Banner Regiment marker towards the right flank of Crewe's Tenth Legion.

As Sir Glick moved, Pedy's heart began to beat faster, and when Sir Glick stopped deducing, Pedy stared at his chief of staff for more than three seconds...

Then, after pondering Sir Glick's deduction for more than two minutes, Peddy gave orders to the herald who was on standby: "Tell Sir Bowenlight to let him move to the left flank in a group of the four regiments responsible for attacking the rebels, and establish a stronghold southwest of Lake Garmicch on the north bank of the Three Forks." ”

"Here!" Sir Gorrick marked on the map the best place to establish a stronghold.

A herald near the door immediately looked at Pedi, and with Pedy's nod, the herald confirmed the order and walked away quickly.

"Your Excellency, you don't have to worry too much. Sir Gorrick was much calmer than Pedy, and he picked up the mark of the Eleventh Orc Regiment again and put it in his hand to play with, "Sir Bowenlet is very cautious, he will definitely send a large number of scouts to scout his left flank before going to war..."

"Most of the Eleventh Banner Regiment are wolf cavalry, and they are even capable of reaching our frontal battlefield from the northwestern steppe in two hours. Pedy interrupted the Chief of Staff, "Tell Sir Bowenwright to have his herald report to High Command every half hour on the battlefield." ”

Immediately, another herald came out.

...

The southern defense area of the grassland rebel camp in the southern part of the southern Garmichi Lake, today, the main battlefield of this battle is here.

At half past three in the afternoon, the soldiers of both sides had been fighting here for more than six hours, and Sir Bowenlight's pincer offensive had begun to be very successful, and in the six hours his army had advanced the front line to the front of the main rebel force.

If, if you can capture this line of defense,

Then, the rebels could almost be eaten by all four legions in the hands of Sir Bowenlight...

However, judging from the current situation of the battle, it is obviously impossible to break through this line of defense in a short time, and the will to fight shown by the more than 10,000 rebels who retreated behind the line shocked Sir Bowenlight.

At the same time, the 10th Banner Regiment of the Orcs began at one o'clock in the afternoon, attacking Sir Bolait's right flank as if they were going mad.

If it weren't for the mages and paladins that Don Wright promised to reinforce the front line, Sir Bowen Wright would have almost suffered a dark loss.

...

Three hours ago,

The rebel commander Ritter personally went to the Chinese army camp at Lake Garmic to ask for help from the Morinda Overseers, and to Ritter's surprise, the Morinda Overseers agreed to his request on the spot, and quickly sent the main force of the 10th Banner Regiment to flank the right flank of the Imperial army.

Ritter thought that the Morinda Overseers were just putting on a show, but the strength of the 10th Banner Regiment's assistance surprised not only Ritter, but even the commander of the Crewe-led front, Sir Bowenlet, was very surprised...

Sir Bowenwright's 10th Banner Regiment, which had been cowering inside the camp unexpectedly, actually took the initiative to send its main force to support the human rebels, which is obviously strange here, because, if this human rebel army was really important, then their previous treatment would not have been so bad at all.

According to Sir Bowenwright's guess, this human rebel army was at most a pawn used by the orcs to consume the imperial army, and its importance was even less than that of the orcs' own C-level troops.

But reality tells Sir Bowenright that this human rebel army seems to have a very important place in the heart of the orc command.

The human rebels also gained unprecedented confidence because of the commitment of the Morinda Overseers and the bravery of the Tenth Banner Regiment, so they resisted extremely fiercely in the final defensive battle.

'There must be something wrong with this...,' Sir Bowenwright couldn't help but think.

To protect the flank line of the Chinese army?

Wrong!

If it is only to protect the flank line, it is completely possible to retreat to the vicinity of the Chinese position, where it has a better geographical location to quickly reset the defense line.

The old knight was directing the battle as he pondered this question that cared him...

What is the reason that the Tenth Banner Regiment, which has always had to fight head-on, can take the initiative to go out of the camp and actively seek to fight? Moreover, it is a more brutal battle! Or is there anything about this human army that cannot be replaced by the orc tribe headquarters legion?

And the importance of this substitution can even exceed that of an orc Grade A elite legion!

What is it?

"What could it be?" said the same question to his chief of staff at the rear command post of the Sancha River.

"Maybe the orcs need to find agents for their rule over the land, and these rebels are clearly the best candidates?" said Gorrik, uncertain.

"Orcs don't need agents at all, they just need slaves. Pedi immediately shook his head, "Besides, orcs never like people sharing their rights. ”

Sir Gorrik frowned when he heard this, he had never encountered this question, so he didn't know how to answer it at all, he thought for a while and said, "My lord, in fact, we don't need to care about the orcs' current plans, because the advantage of the whole battle situation is gradually tilting in our favor..."

Sir Gorrick was more focused on the actual battle report, "So far, the Eleventh Banner of the Orcs has not appeared on the left side of our army as we expected... If I'm not mistaken, it's likely that this army has moved to the vicinity of Byan City. ”

"Two Banner Regiments are assembled in Byan City?" Pei Di raised his eyebrows, "Could it be that the orcs have given up on their eastward advance?"

"Wise choice, isn't it? at least proves that the orc commander can't be as stupid as the goblins. "Sir Grek looked down on the Orcs from the bottom of his heart, and in his eyes the Orcs were inferior to even the poorest of the Empire.

"But now the unthinkable is happening on the frontal battlefield. "Pedy is not as easy as Sir Glick, perhaps because of his status, or perhaps because he has the memory of two lifetimes and is more suspicious than Sir Glick.

"If the orcs of Lake Garmich don't choose to retreat, they will be destroyed by us in three days at most. Glick stared at the map with a straight face and said, "By then, all your worries and doubts will be gone." ”

Peddy froze when he heard the words, and Sir Gorrik said that it was all true, and he could not find the words to refute it, so he did not continue to answer, he was silent for a while, and then sat down on a wooden chair next to the map, and looked at the map of the distribution of friend and foe on the map, and thought alone.

...

Time seems to pass quickly, and it seems to pass very slowly,

For the soldiers fighting on the battlefield, it was as if in an instant, there were corpses and blood all around him, and it seemed that he had gone through countless reincarnations, but it was like a hellish scene...

After nightfall, Sir Bowenright did not continue the attack, but withdrew his troops five miles, encamped and replenished the former rebel front line.

And Pedi, during this time of the afternoon, he felt like he was walking a tightrope, and every time the military newspaper arrived, he had a feeling of panic.

When the last military report from the end of the battle at the front reached Pedi's hands today, his heart finally settled, and at this time, his servant Eden immediately took the opportunity to bring the dinner that had been prepared to Pedi's eyes, causing another servant Bezer to scold softly, 'Villain!'

"Bang..."

The abrupt push of the door sounded almost at the same time as Eden put down his dinner, and Pedy's right hand, which was about to pick up the fork, suddenly stopped, and his eyes looked at the door...

It was Don Wright, who looked dusty, with dirt and dead leaves stained by his hair and leather armor on his head.

Undelivious to the countless glances that fell on him, Don Wright walked straight to Pedy's desk and said, "Bad news..."

"Wait. Pedy stopped Don Wright from continuing his words, motioning for Eden to walk away, beckoning Sir Gorrik to him, and activating the soundproofing magic around him.

"My men told me that the orcs were preparing some unknown magic..."

"A magic?" interrupted Don Wright, who had never liked the paladin from the beginning, and said coldly, "does a magic make you so nervous? ”

"Maybe I should put it another way," Don Wright never gave Sir Glick a good look, "a magic similar to that that that which appeared in the town of Crane Rings Vest not long ago. ”

"Bang..."

Pedi rose abruptly from his seat, the chair behind him toppled to the ground, and Sir Glick was stunned for a moment, and then as if he thought of something, and his face turned pale.

"The human rebels are sacrifices!" Pedi blurted out, and Sir Grek had already thought of it.
