For a long time to come, I hope that Murakami will implement the policy of "the enemy advances and we retreat" from top to bottom.
Whenever the pig-headed men gain a slight advantage in the battle, they will run back to their territory.
After all, the pig-headed men are strong and unafraid of death. This desperate fighting style requires them to pay a lot of lives to win in a real head-on confrontation.
But they only have one life, how could they die here!
Where there is life, there is hope.
The wretched fighting style of Hope Village is indeed constantly disrupting the rhythm of the pig-headed attack. Coupled with the assistance of the archers and ballistas on the city wall, it is obvious that the pig-headed attack is more violent and the attack is dominant. , but their losses were greater than those of Hope Village.
The number of pig-headed men is constantly decreasing.
Gradually, the number of people from the original 500 to over 400 now.
The speed of reduction was invisible. By the time Coleridge reacted, the number of warriors he brought had already decreased by one-fifth.
Another wave of fighting stopped, and when the remaining pig-headed men stood outside the opponent's attack range, after counting the number of people, Coleridge looked incredulous.
Not only were nearly a hundred soldiers dead, but also because half of the more than four hundred people left were injured.
The extremely powerful Pig-Headed Legion can only be a wounded Pig-Headed Legion at this time.
More importantly, their morale was somewhat low after being hit by Hope Village.
Their brains are indeed not very bright, but they are not stupid.
On the surface, they "win", and the people of Hope Village are always forced to flee by them.
But in reality? They lost miserably.
And they noticed.
I noticed the hired orcs in Hope Village. Dozens of them were the first to show up and fight with them. Both sides punched hard. In the most direct confrontation, both sides were injured.
But the second and third time, fewer and fewer people came out.
The follow-up made it even more clear that the injured orc of the opponent will basically not play for the second time in a row. If he appears again after being injured, it must be after he has recovered from the injury.
Once such a result comes out, how can they feel better in their hearts!
A human territory can treat a hired orc so well, why can't their own territory?
These thoughts of the pig-headed man were all hidden, and the lord Coleridge did not care about it, because he was only holding the battle from behind during the whole process, and was only concerned about the situation of the battle.
At this time, after assessing the losses, Coleridge was shocked and became increasingly anxious.
He didn't believe it.
A level 2 human territory actually forced him to this point.
Looking at Coleridge, who exuded a gloomy aura, Paul fell silent this time.
He said everything that needed to be said, and if he said more, he was afraid of being offended.
Grant, on the other hand, looked at Paul, walked quietly to his side, and whispered: "You were working in Hope Village back then? Did you leave because the other party looked down on the orcs?"
By now, Grant had seen that the situation in Hope Village was not consistent with what Paul said.
Compared with what I saw with my own eyes, what I heard before is naturally open to question.
….
Paul certainly felt guilty when he heard Grant asking this question, but it was only fleeting. He quickly returned to his calm appearance and said "yes" unswervingly.
They orcs were able to do things in the human territory, so they thought highly of him. He was just a little less obedient, and drove them away without giving them a chance. Isn't this looking down on them?
Grant snorted, believing him.
He thought of Paul's character and had roughly guessed the whole process.
He didn't say much, just said one sentence.
"Do you regret it?"
Paul's originally somewhat arrogant head lowered slightly.
from
To be honest, he did regret it.
Thinking about it now, the time in Hope Village was indeed the best time in life.
It's not that it's good on the outside, but it's real on the inside.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Paul didn't have to say anything; his reaction proved these two words.
Grant said nothing and looked at the Hope Village in front of him with a faint curiosity in his eyes.
I wonder if he will have a chance to be hired in the future?
If he was hired, he wouldn't be as ignorant as Paul, a fool who doesn't know how to cherish things.
"Continue the attack!" Coleridge announced again. Obviously, he was still unwilling to give up.
All the pig-headed men listened and had no choice but to obey.
Who puts their fate in the hands of the lord!
Grant also withdrew his eyes at this time.
Why is he curious about Hope Village! Isn't it because Lord Coleridge is too unreliable and he needs to find another way out.
Why not rely on other orc territories? That's because when people of different races go to other territories, their fate will only be worse, unless they go to the royal capital, but the royal capital is not something a low-level orc like him can go to.
No, the human territory of Hope Village has come into view.
According to the information revealed by Paul, this human territory and the orcs can choose each other. When the time comes, it is really not as good as he thought, and he can regret it.
It's a pity that I'm just thinking about it now. I don't know if there is an opportunity.
The next moment he thought about it, he got into a fight with the residents of Hope Village again.
The same goes for other pig-headed men.
However, Zhou Bai, who was among them, soon discovered something strange.
After fighting again and again, she gradually figured out how to fight the pig-headed man.
The pig-headed man can indeed perform many explosive skills, but as long as you avoid these skills, the pig-headed man will not be a problem.
She defeated several human-pig-headed men in this way, and the other teams also gained something.
Therefore, when she fought again this time, she had already thought of countless ways to deal with the pig-headed man in front of her.
But after the actual battle, she discovered that the pig-headed man opposite was fishing.
Yes, fishing, not actively releasing skills, retaining maximum physical strength, and retreating as soon as there is danger, isn't this just fishing?
Modified?
Zhou Bai observed while fighting, and then discovered that it was not just the pig-headed people he was fighting against, but also the pig-headed people fighting against others.
The pig-headed people who didn't just rush forward were obviously becoming more difficult to deal with.
….
But they are difficult to deal with, and their damage value to people is also low.
Looking at Coleridge sitting in the distance, Zhou Bai already understood in his heart.
But I understand that Zhou Bai will not be polite.
The pig-headed people are fishing in troubled waters because they have nothing to do with Hope Village. If there is a way, then Hope Village will be the one who is miserable now.
As long as you are on the battlefield, the opponent is your enemy!
It was the other party's ability that he had a way to survive, but it couldn't be Zhou Bai's initiative to waterproof it.
Not only Zhou Bai, but also others had the same idea.
They won't be polite.
How to repay kindness with kindness?
However, in comparison, the mortality rate of the pig-headed people is still much lower than before, and the Hope Village side also seems to be much more comfortable.
Due to the slackness of the pig-headed army, this battle continued into the night.
Always focused on the battlefield, Coleridge was unaware of the passage of time. When it got dark, Coleridge realized that so much time had passed.
It’s been almost 10 hours!
It was also at this time that Coleridge had some real feeling.
He's afraid he won't be able to win Hope Village!
When this idea first came up, the people in Hope Village retreated again!
"Eat, eat."
"We'll fight again after we finish eating!"
"Come on, hurry up, I'm a little hungry."
"..."
In the excitement, the people of Hope Village once again exited safely.
The pig-headed people looked at the crowd who didn't pay attention to them at all, and fell silent.
"Cuckoo"
The next moment, their stomachs growled.
So hungry.
Before they came, they did not expect that they would not be able to capture Hope Village after dawn.
But the fact is that not only could it not be won, but it also suffered huge losses.
Immediately, many pig-headed men looked towards Coleridge.
Coleridge finally noticed the slump in their eyes, pursed his lips, and then said: "Let's rest and eat too!"
The pig-headed people, understanding his unwillingness to retreat, fell silent.
Then he returned to a safe area, started a fire, and prepared to eat.
It's getting darker.
In Hope Village not far away, torches were lit around the entire city wall, instantly lighting up the open space in front of the territory.
It seemed to be announcing to Coleridge and other orcs.
If you don’t accept it, come and fight! They are always there for you!
While many pig-headed men were resting, Coleridge approached Grant.
"Tell me, should I just retreat home?"
Grant: "..." - He really didn't want to answer.
"Just tell me! I don't blame you."
"The Lord should have the answer in his mind." Grant said, avoiding the important points. Who knows whether the other party will settle the score later, so it is better to be conservative.
Coleridge paused, he indeed already had the answer in his mind.
But he is unwilling to give in!
After a long while, Coleridge continued to give instructions, "Prepare a camp for the night."
"……yes."
Grant thought that Coleridge would let the pig-headed men continue to fight, but he did not expect that after nightfall, Coleridge did not give any orders. He just stood at the camp and looked at Hope Village from a distance and reluctantly.
….
On the other side of Hope Village, seeing the pig-headed people no longer attacking, they looked a little strange.
Standing on the city wall, many people couldn't help but started talking as they watched the pig-headed people setting up camp within their territory.
"What are they planning to do? Are they going to rest and fight again?"
"I think they are about to give up. All afternoon, those pig-headed men were beaten so hard that they didn't know what to do. They were not as good as the monsters!"
"You still have to be careful and don't give up until the last moment!"
"Then you say, how about we just go around and make a surprise attack, and annihilate them...the whole army?"
As he spoke, he looked ready to move.
Others also came up with some information.
Although they don't know how the contribution is calculated in territorial wars, it is definitely related to the enemy's situation.
The more they kill, the higher their contribution will be!
Bayer looked at the opponent's temporary camp from a distance, looked at a figure standing there, and said directly: "They have basically given up. If we make a surprise attack and cause the opponent to counterattack, today's efforts will be in vain. So be it!"
The lord has no other instructions, so let’s stop here!
They won the second territorial war again!
Bayer thought, mentally calculating the gains and losses of this war.
The more I think about it, the happier I feel.
He really hasn't fought such an entertaining war for a long time.
I was happy last time and even happier this time.
When the others heard what the commander-in-chief Bayer said, they had no objections.
Also, the orcs didn't fight hard in the afternoon, not because they were incompetent, but because they didn't want to fight.
It's really too far away, and it may be solved before others can save it.
I really almost drifted off.
In this way, the two sides separated from each other by an open space and started a state of non-intrusion between the well and the river.
Time passed by like this minute by minute.
Coleridge didn't sleep all night.
As for Zhou Bai, he didn't sleep well either.
After all, the village-level territorial war lasted 24 hours, and she couldn't really relax until the dust settled at the last moment.
Finally, early the next morning, Zhou Bai received the system notification he had been waiting for.
[Dear host, the territory war has ended. Congratulations on your successful territory defense and victory. The rewards are being settled. Please wait...]
After seeing this message, Zhou Bai fell asleep peacefully.
Coleridge on the other side also received the message.
After seeing the news of the failure of the capture, Coleridge looked gloomy and returned to Stanlow Village with the remaining pig-headed men.
In Stanlo Village, the pig-headed people in the territory who have not been taken away are preparing to welcome their warriors back.
In their opinion, Lord Lord and the others have gone so far, so they must have successfully sieged the city, looted good things from Hope Village, and must have been able to bring back many slaves.
When they come back, it's time to hold a celebration banquet.
Soon, after the same light flashed, Coleridge returned with his people.
When they saw the state of the pig-headed man brought back by Coleridge, the scene in Stanlow Village was silent.
What's going on?
Shouldn't we rob a lot of resources and come back as human slaves?
….
But looking at it now, it seems that their number of pig-headed warriors has decreased a lot, and most of the remaining ones are injured.
What's going on?
Could it be that... their Stanluo Village was defeated? Defeated by the human territory?
Coleridge, who returned, naturally noticed the disbelief on the faces of these people, and his expression became increasingly gloomy. After entering his territory, he returned directly to his residence.
The Lord was like this, and the others were even more silent.
The entire territory fell into silence.
In the territory, looking at the injured pig-headed man, the eyes of some human slaves burst out with a little light.
They knew that Stanluo Village was attacking human territory. They originally thought that this time it was destined to fail, and they might welcome more "compatriots".
But unexpectedly, the human territory won! A level 2 human territory defeated a level 3 orc territory!
This is really good news!
So is there any chance that they can return to human territory? As a trophy? ?
But the next moment, more human slaves' eyes dimmed.
Compared with the trophies that can be obtained in the orc territory, human slaves like them have never been their choice.
Just when they were distracted, the pig-headed man on the side saw them being lazy and whipped them off.
"Don't be lazy. If you don't work, I'll whip you."
With this sentence, the slaves immersed themselves in work one by one.
And soon, the settlement results of the territory war came out!
Two updates in one!
Everyone should pay attention to your health during this special period! I have been ill these past few days and all I want to do is sleep! Update early today and go to bed. I will update again after I recover tomorrow!
Tomorrow is January 1st, I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance! In good health! May all go well with you!
