Shitou, Li Wei and Li Yan quickly gathered their troops back to the acropolis.
The logistics quickly moved over buckets of hot food. The soldiers who had just experienced a big battle devoured the hot soup and meat, and were immediately ordered to rest in the barracks on the spot.
The soldiers didn't have time to see which comrades were missing, so they were dispersed and clocked into private houses, where ten people per room were given the opportunity to rest.
"What are the casualties?"
Xu Feng sat on the wooden pier with a bowl of hot soup and stones, Li Wei and Li Yan.
"The infantry regiment suffered 10,000 casualties, and most of them were new recruits. The heavy infantry regiment was better, with 1,000 casualties."
"The Xishan Battalion has 5,000 troops, 1,000 casualties, and basically no loss of combat effectiveness."
This was only the first day, and the main force of the orcs had not yet appeared, and almost 20% of them had been killed or injured in the early testing.
This is with the help of the Archer Corps and the Elemental Division.
However, Xu Feng's trump card has not been revealed yet. The Ghost Fire Soul Erosion Formation, the Skeleton Giant Wolf Cavalry Regiment, and the Rat Tide have not yet been deployed, and the elementalist team has not yet shown its strongest strength.
Both sides focused on testing in the first round of attacks.
"What to do with the corpses outside the city? Do we need to arrange to bring the corpses of the soldiers back for burial?"
"Time is tight and manpower is insufficient. It will be a waste to arrange for people to go down."
Xu Feng said, teams of people took special kerosene and threw the corpses into the deep pit in front of the city gate. Barrels of kerosene were poured in. This is a specially made kerosene in the army. It has a low ignition point and a long burning time.
A raging fire was lit in front of the acropolis. Xu Feng and other soldiers watched the flames on the city wall. In the contrast of red and yellow, they seemed to see young faces returning to the embrace of heaven and earth with smiles.
As night fell, the two armies that had experienced a fierce battle lit up bonfires, and the infantry regiments in the Acropolis fell into a deep sleep.
Shitou led the fire-zombified warriors and ten thousand reserve troops to guard the city. Chuck also brought all the trolls to the city to help defend.
Fang Ying and Lu You were on standby at any time, just in case.
Xu Feng is currently planning to counterattack the Orc army. Blind defense is not his usual style. He will give the Orc army a surprise tonight!
Hundreds of thousands of rats have lurked into the logistics area of the orc army. Each one has been hungry for several days. They will open their bellies in the orcs' logistics area and have a feast!
There were more than 5,000 sharp-toothed rats with Xu Feng's special mission, and each of their stomachs was filled with flammable and high-temperature fire oil.
In the orcs' tent, Klin was organizing troops to attack the acropolis at night. The orcs had the numerical advantage and took turns attacking the city day and night, not giving Xu Feng a chance to breathe.
"Damumu, lead 30,000 orcs to launch an assault on the Acropolis in the middle of the night. Master Shaman will help you!"
Krillin said to one of his lieutenants.
"Shaman, please go with Damumu tonight."
Klin turned his head and said respectfully to the Orc Shaman. The Shaman is the wise man of the Orcs, a symbol of wisdom and strategy, and has a respected status within the Orc tribe.
There is a huge difference between an orc army with a shaman and an orc army without a shaman!
There is a huge gap in morale. The shaman has the terrifying skill of quickly restoring the life of the orcs, and can also cast various buff spells.
Hearing that there was a shaman helping out, Damumu happily accepted the task!
"As ordered, I will prepare the army immediately and prepare for the siege at night!"
"I have sent word to Your Highness that the Saber-toothed Tiger Cavalry Regiment will come with a batch of magic resistance armor to replace the Dire Wolf Cavalry Regiment."
After discovering a monster with a high-level wolf king in the acropolis on the battlefield, Klin immediately transferred the Dire Wolf Rider away, leaving him in the military camp only to become a mascot that consumes rations.
The appearance of the elemental master team also made Klin vigilant. Although there were only three third-level elemental masters on the scene today, it cannot be ruled out that there will be more elemental masters participating in the battle with the orcs in the future.
So Klin sent a message to His Highness Gural, requesting a batch of magic resistance armor to equip his berserker army.
"Why do I suddenly have a hunch that Acropolis may be a harder nut to crack than Luzhuang?"
The elemental divisions, archer corps, etc. on the Acropolis during the day today were things that had never been reflected in the previous intelligence. The key defenders of the Acropolis gave him a feeling of being at ease.
"Bao Li'er, lead 20,000 orcs and be on standby at any time after Damumu attacks. Once there is a change on the battlefield, immediately attack to relieve the siege!"
After the shaman and Damumu left, Klin suddenly summoned another deputy general, Bao Li'er, and ordered him to lead 15,000 orc warriors and 5,000 Komodo giant rhinoceros cavalry, on standby at any time!
This kind of sudden keen intuition on the battlefield is often the most fatal. Klin devoted himself to the strategy map in front of him and re-formulated the siege strategy for the Acropolis.
The cold night fell, and dark clouds shrouded the sky. After the flames in front of the Acropolis burned the corpses, they were extinguished by the cold wind. The orc army began to advance towards the Acropolis under the cover of night.
When the Orc army entered four to five kilometers in front of the Acropolis, Xu Feng and Xiaogu had already noticed the Orcs' movements.
The dark night is when Xiaogu's energy is at its strongest, and the heat source of life emitted by tens of thousands of orcs shines in Xiaogu's eyes like bright lights.
"Call Fang Ying and Lu You, the orcs are attacking."
"Drummer, beat the drum and sound the alarm!"
Xu Feng ordered to the surrounding guards.
Stone and Chuck immediately became alert when they heard the sound of the drums, cheering up the army and preparing for a night battle!
"Lord City Lord, we are here."
Lu You and Fang Ying walked quickly to Xu Feng's side, and fifth-level elementalist Aunt Zhou followed Fang Ying worriedly.
"The orcs are still five thousand meters away from us, prepare to release the spell."
Xu Feng said in a deep voice.
Damumu led the orc army to advance quickly, and soon heard the sound of drums coming from the acropolis.
"The reaction is not slow yet, the whole army should speed up and charge!"
The orc army immediately began to speed up. The originally silent march became violent, and roars rang out in the night. Since they had been exposed, they speeded up their pace to keep their spirits up.
In front of the city gate, Shitou led the fire-zombified warriors to wait quietly for the orcs to attack. Under the dark night, the fire-zombified warriors would show their butcher knives.
Chuck also led a thousand trolls to assist.
At the top of the city, Fang Ying and Lu You chanted incantations in a low voice, and huge elemental energy emanated from their staffs!
