Heroes of the Invincible Knight

The information Sol got was naturally sent from the North Route Army, and the news revealed in the intelligence was so bad that even people like Sol who couldn't show emotions could not help but change their faces.

So much so that Sol is now in a very embarrassing state. He will not doubt the authenticity of the information. This letter clearly states that the information was confirmed by Richard. Although Richard is ambitious, he has nothing to do with the royal family. Loyalty, but there is no problem with dealing with alien races, and this battle is a race war between humans and orcs. It is impossible for Richard to deceive himself in such matters.

The alliance between the orc and the white dragon is almost inseparable, but it is not known when the white dragon will arrive on the battlefield and when it will arrive.

"Al, how much do you know about White Dragon?"

The white dragon had always lived in the extreme north, and had competed with the snow giants for living space, and had little contact with humans. Even the well-informed Sol only knew his name, and had never seen a real white dragon. Dragon, but Al, as a golden dragon, has had some contact with white dragons in his long life.

Although Al was a little injured at this time, and his spirit was a little sluggish, a very humanized mocking expression appeared on the dragon's face when he heard Sol mention the word white dragon.

"White Dragon, those guys should have been eliminated from the ranks of giant dragons a long time ago. They can't even compare to the green dragons. I can fight at least three when I am not injured."

Although Al is a little out of tune among golden dragons, he is indeed a solid golden dragon in his prime, and he is already a giant dragon close to the ancient level. There is really no pressure to easily beat three white dragons.

But although Al said this easily, Sol's whole expression became more serious. Before Al was injured, he could only deal with three white dragons. Counting him, a sky-level knight, the combination of the two can top five or six at most. White dragon, according to the information, there are at least fifty white dragons joining the army of orcs. Even if you count the other four dragon knights, it is impossible to stand up to it.

"Is there a lot of white dragons?"

"There should be more white dragons than our golden dragons, but those white dragons have a short lifespan, and they don't even have a sanctuary in their clan. They never dare to act wildly in front of our golden dragons."

When Al talked about the white dragon, his tone was always full of superiority, but Sol became more and more startled the more he heard it. The white dragon may not be worth mentioning to the golden dragon family, but the white dragon's help to the orcs is obviously the same as it is now. The Golden Dragon Clan is incomparable, this is troublesome.

"Let me make a count of how many orc dragon-hunting crossbows are still usable, and immediately organize soldiers to practice operating the dragon-hunting crossbows left by the orcs."

"Yes, my lord!"

Although one of the orc's dragon-hunting crossbows was directly burned by Al at the beginning, none of the other dragon-hunting crossbows were directly attacked by Al, and many of them should be usable. Immediately use the orc's dragon hunting crossbow.

"Call all the generals of the corps to discuss matters in the inner castle."

"Yes, my lord!"

The messengers who had been waiting beside Sol immediately moved into action and began to run around to convey Sol's orders. Sol asked Al to recover from his injuries and then returned to the inner castle, waiting for other senior generals to come to discuss matters.

South Line

Ironspear

The siege has been going on for several days. The White Wolf Warriors, the ace of the Western Territory Army, have participated in the siege several times. This half-orc banner regiment built with a lot of money is simply an existence that stops children from crying at night in the Western Territory. Usually, one banner regiment can Chasing tens of thousands of lizardmen in the desert.

Although lizardmen are not a strong fighting race, they are not such waste materials as kobolds. In fact, their combat power is barely comparable to that of humans, and stronger than elves. In addition, they have strong fertility and their bodies are better adapted to the desert. The desert environment in the western region, so even if he has been pressed and rubbed on the ground by the Duke of the western region, he still survives tenaciously like Xiaoqiang.

Some warriors of the Lizardman Tribe have good fighting abilities. The Western Territory Army, especially the White Wolf Warriors, can always press the Lizardmen on the ground and rub them. powerful.

With the addition of the White Wolf Warrior Corps, the pressure on the orcs in Iron Spear City has increased significantly. The Western Region Army has already attacked the city wall several times, but the human army on the southern front still lacks the combat power of the Dragon Knight, which can make a final decision. , was driven off the city wall several times by the orc general leading the reserve team.

But everyone knows that according to this rhythm, it is only a matter of time before Iron Spear City is breached. The guards of Iron Spear City are also constantly urging the reinforcements of Strom City under this pressure, and finally appeared near Iron Spear City today. And after discovering hundreds of thousands of orc reinforcements, the human army did not continue to attack, but retreated like a tide, leaving a mess on the ground.

…

"Damn it!"

"My lord duke, today is almost too close. The leader of the orc army has been entangled by us. If we retreat later, we will take Iron Spear City!"

The person who spoke was a half-orc general with a burly body and similar facial features to humans, but his skin was slightly green. At this moment, his face was full of frustration. The White Wolf Warriors had suffered a lot in the past two days, but As a general, what he distressed was not the loss, but the failure to achieve the goal after paying the loss.

The few human generals around were also full of regrets. The orcs had almost run out of oil and lamps when they attacked the city today. The only thing left was the last trembling. I'm holding my breath.

"Uth, be safe and don't be impatient, don't be so impatient."

"I'm sorry, my lord, I lost my temper."

Although Us is a half-orc, he actually doesn't like orcs at all. To Us, there is no difference between fighting orcs and lizardmen. He doesn't even reject fighting humans. The only home of the orcs is the western region, where they have dignity, status, and honor. At least on the surface, no one dares to provoke and discriminate against these half-orcs, and they only offer their loyalty to the Ross family who ruled the western region.

So with one word from Ross, the half-orc general, who was still complaining just now, immediately sank down, apologized and quieted down.

"As soon as the orc reinforcements come, they will come. It is a good thing that Iron Spear City has been captured. If it is not defeated, it will not affect the next plan."

"Order the infantry to retreat to the camp and strengthen the defense. All the cavalry prepare ten-day rations, feed the horses, and prepare to go out at night!"

"This? Are we going to attack at night?"

"My lord, this orc has just arrived, so I'm afraid he will be very prepared tonight, and our army does not have an advantage in the night battle."

The order of the Duke of Ross made the generals in the tent a little puzzled. The dispatch at night seemed to be a rhythm of launching a night attack, but what does it mean to prepare ten-day rations? Bringing so many things is of no use to a night attack.

Moreover, the orcs can't avoid fighting at night with one hand, and the other is because the orcs are still in a semi-nomadic state, and like fishy smell, they often eat some biological offal. Much more serious. Although these generals didn't understand the reason, they still knew that orcs had a lower rate of night blindness, so they tried to avoid night battles with orcs.

"Don't ask too much, just do what I say, and I will give you the answer tonight."

"Yes, my lord!"

The Duke of Ross is still a one-sided existence in the Western Region Army. Once an order is issued, no matter whether he can figure it out or not, his execution is no problem. As for the infantry sent by Longxiguan to assist in the battle, he has no doubts about Ross's qualifications.

Soon, the generals of the big tent took their orders to disperse, and the human army began to retreat slowly.

During the siege of Iron Spear City during this period, the army from the South Road did not do nothing. At least the camp was very strong and organized. After a little processing, it could be regarded as a stronghold. When the human army retreated, the orc reinforcements rushed over. They didn't chase, but approached Iron Spear City from the other side, but the army didn't enter the city in a hurry, but started camping close to the city, which seemed to have some plans.

On Ironspear City, the orcs cheered because of the arrival of the reinforcements, while Duke Ross stood in the camp and watched from a distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

...

night falls

Because of Rose's order, more than 200,000 western cavalry took a short rest during the day. At this time, they were all in armor, each leading two horses and waiting for orders.

"My lord, the troops are ready."

"Um."

The elite of the Western Territory Army is not only reflected in its bravery and fearlessness in combat, but also in all aspects. At least this scheduling ability and execution ability are beyond the reach of ordinary troops. More than 200,000 cavalry can do it at night. It is very agile, without any sense of procrastination. It seems that it is not completely impossible to launch a night attack directly?

Adil, who reported to Ross, shook his head and dismissed this idea. Although the orc army did not all enter the city, they were stationed not far from the city. It can fully echo with Ironspear City. Night raids are too risky. up.

"My lord, are we really going to attack the orcs at night?"

"Who said they were going to attack the orcs at night?"

"Order the infantry to light the torches, make some movement, and make a stance to continue the siege, Us, you take the White Wolf Warriors together, act realistically, and put some pressure on the opponent."

"Yes, my lord!"

Because of their size, half-orcs are not suitable for cavalry combat. Although the big horses in the western region can carry half-orcs, it takes a lot of effort, and their physical strength will be consumed faster. Over time, they will be more prone to exhaustion. Therefore, the white wolf The half-orc warriors of the Samurai Order are all heavy infantry, not in the cavalry sequence.

"Adil, after the infantry leave the camp and make noise, we will lead the cavalry to leave the camp and order the army to control the horses and make as little noise as possible."

"My lord, what do we want?"

"Directly through Strom."

"Is this too risky?"

At this time, Adil finally understood Ross's intentions. He had guessed when Ross ordered to prepare dry food at the beginning, but now he has completely confirmed it.

This is absolutely no way out. One man and two horses, pass through Rapids from here, and directly cut into the battlefield on the center line. If there is any accident, the entire army will be in danger of running out of food. It is completely a dance on a tightrope operation. Only the Duke of Ross dared to issue such an order.

"There is no risk in a war. If there is no retreat, we will not retreat and make a way."

"Why, Adil, who has always been desperate, is also afraid sometimes?"

"No, my lord duke, I'm not afraid of death, but if the hundreds of thousands of people in my western region are all on the eastern plateau, then the western region..."

"If this battle is lost, the kingdom may collapse. Without the kingdom, can our western border stand against the orcs?"

"The battle on Lord Saul's side has already begun. We must rush there as quickly as possible. If we continue to spend time under the Iron Spear City, it will be a disgrace to our Western Territory Army!"

It's not that Adil doesn't understand the truth. After fighting the orcs in the western region, he also understood how powerful the orcs are. The fighting power of the orc warriors is almost equal to that of the monsters of the White Wolf Warriors.

There are still millions of such orcs in the army. If the kingdom is gone, with the population and army in the western region, it is impossible to be the opponent of the orcs anyway.

"I understand, Your Excellency the Duke."

After all, Adil left quickly and began to organize cavalry preparations.

"General Juan."

"My lord duke!"

"You will lead the army to disturb the orcs tonight. Be sure to make the noise louder and light more torches to give the orcs the illusion that our army is going to attack the city at night. Repeat this several times, and return after the cavalry leave in the middle of the night. Keep the camp strong, I will leave the White Wolf Warriors to assist you, and if there is a chance later, you can take the infantry back to Longxi Pass, and you don’t need to stay here anymore.”

Juan is a senior officer on the front line of Longxiguan South Wangcheng, and this time the infantry of Longxiguan was led by him to assist the western border army in combat.

"Yes, my lord!"

Now he fully understands Ross's plan, the attack on Ironspear City is actually a cover, the purpose is to mobilize the orc army from Strom City.

The army of orcs who came to help must have brought out the vast majority of wolf cavalry in Strom City. The defenders of Strom City now only have the strength to hold on, and absolutely have no spare power to entangle with the cavalry of the western region. The orc army can quickly pass through the city of rapids and circle around to the rear of the orc watch city.

Although this plan is risky, it is not difficult to achieve with the quality of the western cavalry and the configuration of one man and two horses. After tonight, the orc wolf cavalry will not be able to catch up with the western cavalry going north.

"Us."

"My lord duke, we half-orcs are marching fast, and we must not fall behind. Let me go with you."

Before Ross could speak, Us on the side asked.

"What nonsense again, no matter how fast you run, can you outrun the cavalry with two horses?"

"Cooperate honestly with General Juan's actions. If you return to Longxi Pass, you will win. If you encounter an attack from the orcs, cooperate with the army to defend the line."

"This is an order!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Seeing that Us wanted to say something, Duke Ross didn't give him a chance to speak, and his tone became severe.

Although Us was still somewhat dissatisfied, facing Ross's stern tone, he also knew that Duke Ross's determination had been made, and he was not allowed to bargain any more, so he could only agree.

"Set off!"

The cavalry in the western region began to move quietly. At the same time, the drums of the front battalion were beating, and a torch illuminated the infantry of the front battalion...
