"Children of the Mountains! The ones who stole the Karag-Red Cloud Mountain are a group of shameless greenskins. Are there any warriors willing to explore their true identity?" Snorri roared, and now his expedition has truly begun. .
To be honest, Snorri was relieved to hear that it was the greenskin warband. He vaguely remembered that there was a landmark in Karag-Hongyun Mountain called the "Moss Clan Headquarters". He also chose the current path after repeatedly confirming with the senior adventurers of humans and dwarves that there were no traces of rats.
Otherwise, there would be a fierce battle with the first clan among the four great clans of the Demon Rat Empire, and Snorri's expedition would not have a bright future.
"I, Cohen of the Moir clan, would like to go!"
"It is my duty to serve my country in order to regain my homeland!"
Leaving the desert, the dwarves became excited again, and every tribesman smelled the smell of wealth and glory. Of all the expeditions in history that have attempted to find Karak-Zun, they have defeated only half of them by reaching the Southern World's Edge Mountains.
Snorri was unwilling to dampen the enthusiasm of the clansmen at this time. On the other hand, he also wanted to select some qualified leaders. Now the only person around him who can take full responsibility is Henryd. His previous position as gatekeeper did not mean gatekeeper but the city defense commander.
A large number of dwarves were scattered out in small teams. They either came from the same city or clan, or they were originally adventuring together, or they formed a team just because they chatted along the way.
The greenskins occupying the Red Cloud Mountain Fortress were not aware of the approaching danger, and they were not alert at all. In the evening, the dwarves who were conducting reconnaissance returned one after another, and they had a clear picture of the situation of the greenskin warband.
This greenskin did not grow locally but migrated from the Badlands. The dwarves speculate that they may have discovered a network of ley lines in the middle of the World's Edge Mountains. Greenskins are one of the few races that can tunnel.
This group of greenskins did not gain the upper hand in the battle for territory in the Badlands, so they were forced to move here. They were not very strong in terms of strength. Snorri decided to attack directly at night.
When he had an advantage in strength, Snorri's tactics were relatively simple. Some tribesmen made a surprise attack from underground, while he took the rest and attacked from the ground with the support of artillery. Two foreign troops were each responsible for one side to prevent the greenskins from escaping, and the knights gathered together to form a mobile unit.
There were some disputes over the command of the underground forces. Johnson Strong Shield's resume was not outstanding, and several tribesmen volunteered to compete with him for the position of commander.
Snorri is still happy to see healthy competition, especially if it does not threaten his overall command. However, this time in order to make a quick decision, he appointed Captain Johnson as the main person in charge. Of course, he also promised that the self-recommended candidates would focus on observing their performance during the battle.
When Shanyue Manthrib was in the sky, Snorri's rune anvil lit up, and Johnson sent a signal that the underground troops were in place. The Coffin Canyon has been riddled with holes by the former kings of Nehekhara for thousands of years, and the dwarves easily dug a tunnel directly into the Karag-Red Cloud Mountain Fortress.
Snorri pointed the war hammer in his hand, and large groups of troops poured out of the mountain col. The greenskins of Hongyun Mountain have not noticed it until now, and it is not their fault. After all, after so long, when both sides of the canyon are full of skeletons, who will still be vigilant?
With the sound of several cannons, the dwarves rushed forward with shouts of death. The goblins in the greenskin camp were alarmed. They ran around screaming, waking the orcs who had fallen asleep.
Soon, a group of black orcs rushed out of the camp. The Black Orcs' name comes from their dark green or black skin, black-painted armor, and infamous reputation.
These strong orcs possess something that other greenskins do not possess - a high degree of discipline and organization. Coupled with their strong armor and heavy blades in their hands, it can be said that they are simply born for war.
Snorri licked his tongue and looked at those guys. To be honest, he was very greedy for these black orcs. It is said that they were secretly cultivated by the Chaos Dwarves in the Dark Land. With dark magic and breed improvement, the Black Orcs have overcome their disadvantages and magnified their advantages.
The leader of the group, a black orc boss who was even more majestic than the others around him, shouted to make the ordinary orcs who were still sleeping soundly in shacks and crypts stand up. The Black Orcs are few in number, so although they despise the undisciplined nature of ordinary Orcs, they are forced to keep company with them.
Bloxon personally controlled a crossbow and aimed it at the Black Orc boss who was waving a big chop in his hand and shouting non-stop. A flaming spear went straight towards the Black Orc boss with a heart-stopping sound of breaking through the air. go.
A shocking scene occurred for the leading dwarves. The black orc first used the battle ax in his hand to move forward, and then moved the shield in his left hand. The crossbow arrow was directly transformed into nothing.
"Waaaagh!"
The black orc boss raised his head to the sky and let out a war cry. Ever since he left the bad land, he has been chopping bones every day. These things will not bleed or scream. It is not pleasant to chop them.
Before the orcs' battle line had stabilized, Henryd led the dwarves' vanguard to kill them. At a glance, the black orc boss saw the dwarf, who was also larger than the surrounding people. He was wielding a two-handed battle ax with one hand. The two strong men were fighting together.
The dwarves also started to fight against the orcs. On the one hand, they were taller and stronger, and on the other hand, they were well-equipped. Originally, there was not much difference. But soon the greenskin side showed signs of decline. Their long-range firepower was really poor.
Goblin archers and orc bow boys either have low armor-breaking capabilities or poor shooting accuracy, and are not on the same level as the thunder guns and crossbows of the dwarves. The Black Orc boss soon discovered that his subordinates were hit by several rounds of projectiles and fell down.
"You eggless dwarf! You only dare to attack from a distance with a shotgun!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the black orc boss swung his ax away from Henryd, and tried to retreat back. The orcs behind it who were still fighting were ready to flee when they saw the situation.
At this moment, Captain Johnson and his men came out from behind the greenskins.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The dwarves first threw a round of detonators they carried with them. The sudden explosion caused the green-skinned long-range troops in the back row to be frightened and rush forward, colliding with the retreating front row. I don't know who came from behind in the smoke and dust caused by the explosion, and I could only hear the shouts of killing.
The crossbows and cannons took advantage of the situation and fired another round of volleys. The morale of the other greenskins except the black orcs collapsed. They dragged their weapons backwards and dispersed to both sides of the battlefield. The black orc boss shouted loudly and slowly but could not control the rout. He killed two or three deserters but made the greenskins stay further away from him.
