In the early morning in the wasteland fortress, the wind was freezing. Qingur led the orc army to spread out overwhelmingly on the grassland. Unlike the previous sentries, the orc warriors in the front row of the army were well-disciplined, neatly formed, with huge bodies and huge bodies. The bone stick, the madness in his eyes was almost overflowing, just waiting for Qingur's order.
On the fortress wall, Xu Feng was observing the orc army in a remote corner. Rows of warriors were rushing in and out of the city wall and inside the city to carry supplies for the city defense. The archer army was guarded by the shield warriors and was ready for battle. Every soldier The archers are surrounded by a shield warrior to assist and protect them, and the catapults behind the archer legion are on standby!
The First Legion stood majestically inside the fortress gate, with heavy armor, spears, and shields. Every soldier showed no fear on his face and had a firm expression.
The third-level earth elemental master, Li Yunfei and others stood on the city wall and observed the orc army.
"The orcs are coming with force. This year's orcs are different from the past. With an army of 100,000, a high-quality knight, and more than a dozen third-level combatants, the scale of the orcs, the eliteness of the soldiers, and the tactical literacy are far beyond those in previous years."
Li Yunfei looked at the orc army and sighed.
The stronger the combat power of the orcs is, the more important it is to reflect the importance of our defense. The fortress is still there, and we must not let these orcs enter the border of our Black Flame Mansion!
"Send the order! We are in the city, and I, Li Yunfei, will fight to the death with everyone!"
Li Yunfei shouted.
"The city is here and the people are there! Fight to the death and never retreat!"
The soldiers on the city and inside the city shouted in unison, and Xu Feng's troops also shouted loudly. The timidity in their hearts was also dissipated by the shouts.
Qingur sat on the Dire Wolf King and listened to the shouts in the fortress, full of disdain. Waving their arms gently, the orc warriors on both sides hammered the ground with their big sticks, roaring like crazy and charging forward, causing the sand and gravel on the ground to shake.
As the orcs' charging speed accelerated, they soon reached the defensive position of the fortress. Unprepared, a large number of orcs fell into the pit and were pierced by iron spikes. Stomp on the corpse and continue charging towards the fortress.
Juma is also blocking the path forward of the charge of the orc warriors.
Cans of fire oil on the catapult were ready, and they were fired at the orc army. The oil cans smashed to the ground, and the pungent smell spread. The amethyst stone giant stood ten meters high on the city wall, holding high the boulder and throwing it.
"Archers, proceed in echelon, release!"
Thousands of arrows were fired. The archer corps on the city wall fired one round for each thousand people, each with ten bows and arrows. Five rounds of people and horses took turns to shoot, ensuring that the rain of arrows in the sky would not be interrupted. Arrows rained down like rain, and the charging orcs were stabbed. The hedgehog fell on the grassland, and soon the orcs behind him carried the body in front, waving the bone club in their hands and continuing to charge.
As the orcs got closer and closer to the city wall, the shooting of the human archer legion caused a large number of casualties. The rear of the orc legion gave way to a road. The orc throwers and trebuchets were driven by the coolies to the front of the team. The orcs threw Hands, arms as big as heads, thick arms, iron spears more than three meters long.
A series of iron spears passed over the Orc warriors, drew an arc in the air, and fell rapidly towards the Archer Legion.
Huge rolling stones were hurled between the two armies, injuring each other.
The shield warrior raised his shield with both hands high and placed it horizontally in front of the shooter. Under the cover of the shield, the archer army continued to shoot bows and arrows at a steady pace. However, due to the sharpness and speed of the iron spears, soon some shield warriors were unable to withstand the spears. Nail the warrior and the archer behind him to the city wall.
During the window of the rain of bows and arrows, the siege vehicles in the orc army were quickly rolling out, and a large number of orc coolies began to gather around the siege vehicles towards the fortress.
Inside the fortress, Li Yunfei watched the Orcs approaching and opened the city gate. The heavy infantry regiment of the First Legion quickly passed through the city gate with heavy steps and put down their heavy shields to protect themselves. Spears stood between the heavy shields, and the city gate was closed. , the heavy infantry had a determined look, and this battle had a narrow escape.
Soon, the coolie army surpassed the orc warrior army and charged into the deep pit in front of the fortress with the wooden bridge high. The guards on the city wall threw their spears and rockets, causing damage to the coolies. The rockets ignited the kerosene on the battlefield. Halfway through A raging fire arose from the orc army. Under the burning flames, the orcs howled, and the wasteland fortress seemed like hell.
As the wooden bridge was built, the orc warriors roared and raised their sticks high. The bloodthirsty atmosphere suddenly filled the fortress gate. The sticks and shields collided, the spears tore flesh and blood, and a fierce battle began.
Stone stood on the inside of the city gate and summoned the totem of tenacity, which gave the heavy infantry regiment a defensive effect. The elemental masters on the city wall also began to gather magic power. Earth thorns stabbed out from the feet of the orcs, and the protrusions of the earth walls hindered the following orcs. The advance of the legions.
Xu Feng stood on the city wall, throwing spears one after another in his hand. Looking at the battlefield shrouded in flames, Xu Feng and his troops had become numb, and the timidity before the war had disappeared without a trace. , the comrades who were still saying hello yesterday disappeared in the breath today. Life on the battlefield is too fragile. I don’t even have time to take a look at the people around me when they fall, let alone the sadness in my heart. All I can do is numbly go to the city gate. The orcs below were throwing spears and stones.
At noon, the fierce battle at the gate of the city was still going on. Several attacks by the orcs failed. Qingur ordered to blow the horn to retreat. Today's siege was just a test to destroy the defense measures of the fortress and fill in the gaps. Level the road and prepare for the subsequent large-scale attack by siege equipment and beast cavalry.
As the Orc army retreated like a tide, nearly ten thousand Orc corpses were left on the battlefield. More than half of the heavy infantry regiment in front of the fortress was injured. The logistics support troops quickly walked up to the city wall, collected the corpses of their comrades, and removed the iron tools on the wall. The fallen rocks were collected, and maintenance craftsmen began to repair the city walls and weapons.
The black mist in the mount space began to tremble, and a stream of divided consciousness dispersed quietly on the tragic battlefield, absorbing the rich aura of death.
Xu Feng leaned against the city wall and concentrated his mental energy for several hours. On the one hand, he was throwing attacks at the orcs, and he also had to be careful of the orcs' spears falling into rocks.
Xu Feng led his troops to change defenses from the city wall to rest. There were still more than 80 people left in the original hundred-man cavalry company. More than a dozen cavalry did not die on the way to the charge, but died on the city wall. The team advanced silently, Xu Feng Feng's comforting and encouraging words were stuck in his throat, but he couldn't say them out.
Guan Ping found Xu Feng and felt relieved when she saw Xu Feng's figure.
"Experiencing a war for the first time is inevitable. Just get used to it and protect yourself on the battlefield."
After Guan Ping explained, she patted Xu Feng and went to the commander's tent.
In the western wilderness, a thousand-man dire wolf cavalry regiment quietly passed through the defense zone on the grass and inserted into the western border. The regiment leader Sack commanded the wolf cavalry to pass through smoothly and divided the cavalry regiment into ten squads, each with hundreds of troops. The cavalry, following Qingur's orders, were divided into parts, looking for the food routes of the Western Guards to destroy, attacking within the border tribes, and disrupting the interior of the western border.
