Law of the Devil

It is mainly on the city wall in the north. Although the heroic General Miro led his guards back and forth to fight. Just like firefighters. They kept fighting one danger after another, but from the perspective of form, it seemed that the defense of the city wall was becoming more and more difficult, and the human soldiers began to retreat steadily, faintly seeming to be unable to resist.

at this time. Looking from a distance, it is above the city wall. Dozens of ladders have been set up, and then, under the city wall. Iron phalanxes of orcs came up one after another. Because the city wall has been caught in a fight. The defenders simply couldn't spare their hands to use bows and arrows to restrict the advance of the orc phalanx below the city. The phalanx of the orcs also sped up a bit.

Orc warriors line up, the kind that hold their shields high and march forward into the Subway A phalanx. Each is about a thousand orc warriors. From the siege battle in the morning to the present. Basting invested a total of more than a dozen phalanxes. More than 10,000 orc warriors launched wave after wave of attacks on the human city walls.

There were fights all over the walls. Screams, howls, and blood flying everywhere!

In front of the orc army in the distance, the white rhino Bastin looked at the city wall coldly. It was sneering: "Huh, it seems that these humans are so capable? I heard from the human civilians captured by the wolf riders. It took humans two full years to build this line of defense... It seems that it is nothing more than that! This It's only been a morning. They can't resist, hum!"

Indeed. On the city wall, more and more orc warriors have occupied climbing points one after another, and then several groups. Firmly formed arrays one after another. Guard the climbing point tightly. Let more orc warriors climb the city wall!

The morale of the human soldiers seems to have gradually declined. Although still resisting, but gradually. Slowly retreating without knowing it, this allows the orc to take up more and more space!

"That's it? This is the combat power of the human army? So it seems that within today, we will be able to occupy this fortress! I heard that humans have set up three such fortresses in the north... Hmph. That's all."

Basting began to feel a little complacent. He didn't even commit to the last of the elite reserves. Even the powerful siege equipment built by those dwarves was not used, and the behemoth Behemoth of the orc race did not appear... Relying on the simplest ladder, it is almost impossible for humans to resist!

this moment. The orc general couldn't help but look down on the combat power of humans.

It seems that in front of the invincible orc warrior ground. Humans are really vulnerable!! Orc warriors, in terms of combat effectiveness, are far superior to weak races like humans!

"It's almost time, my lord."

When the defenders on the north wall were retreating steadily, in a tall tower on the east side. A pair of eyes were looking through the gap in the wall. Coldly observing the tragic scene of fighting on the city wall.

Rostock's face was indifferent. Although he was old, the veteran of the empire had a face of fortitude and courage. on the battlefield. He appeared to be much calmer than those generals behind him.

"My lord..." As the coach's son, Luo Yantar was a little more courageous than the others, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He couldn't help urging in a low voice: "I think it's almost the same, General Miro seems to be a little nervous."

"Shut up." Rostock frowned and looked back at his son: "General Miro is a brave general of our army. I know him much better than you! He hasn't reached his limit yet!"

Looking at his son's eyes. Rostock sighed inwardly, he was still young after all. Although his only son fought bravely. But he is a simple fierce general type of kid. In the midst of war. It's not enough to just hit and rush, after I get old in the future. If his family wants to continue to gain a firm foothold in the imperial army. Enough wisdom is also needed-but wisdom is the quality that my son lacks the most.

Feeling soft, Rostock pointed to the fiercely fought city wall in the distance, and decided to call his son again: "See clearly, General Miro is very smart. Although his soldiers seem to be retreating, they are not scattered. They It's strategically retreating bit by bit, giving space to the enemy. Try to attract as many enemies as possible to the wall! Do you understand? It's not the time yet! Wait! Can you see the bottom? These enemy phalanxes are still advancing! Let them come a little more! Since we have spent our capital in this battle, we must get the maximum harvest!"

"But... the casualties of the soldiers..." Luo Yantar was a little anxious.

"War, there is no immortal!" Rostock gave his son a cold look: "Wait a little longer. Milo can hold on for a while!"

Time passed minute by minute.

Seeing that the imperial defenders on the city wall retreated more and more. Almost half of the city walls have been occupied by orcs. Only the parts along the female walls on both sides were still firmly occupied by the defenders of the empire. The orcs on the city walls occupied one tower after another, and they frantically destroyed the heavy ballistas in the towers. More and more orc warriors crowded on the city wall, trying to attack inside, but the parapet going down the inner side of the city wall was still occupied by the human army, relentlessly resisting...

More than two thousand orc warriors crowded on the city wall. Although the city wall of the fortress is much wider than other military fortresses in the empire, it is still too narrow for the huge orcs. Pile after pile of orcs crowded together, only the orcs in the front row could take over from humans. The orcs behind could only yell frantically. Crowding forward, humans only need to firmly occupy the part of the parapet. Form a defensive array. Still able to resist the orcs to advance.

As for General Miro, it seemed that after several rounds of fighting back and forth with his brave personal guards, he also gradually exhausted his vigor. This brave general who just won the Imperial Medal. The armor on his body was also broken in several places. Especially the armor on the armguard of his left arm was deeply dented, and there was a huge crack. The muscles in the arm have been blurred.

This was left to him by a high-ranking orc warrior he just fought against. The orc warrior's knife slashed Milo's arm. Under the mighty power of the orcs. It directly chopped his armor to pieces. If it wasn't for being a general, Milo's armor would be a masterpiece of human craftsmanship. If you change the armor of ordinary soldiers. I'm afraid that this knife can cut off Milo's arm. And on his thigh, he was also stabbed. But fortunately not heavy. .

Milo's face was covered in blood at the moment. His arm was sore and numb, and he couldn't remember how many enemies he had killed. The long sword used just now has already rolled its edge. At this moment, he held a mace snatched from an orc warrior in his hand and waved it vigorously.

Time passed minute by minute. In that tower, General Rostock's face gradually became serious, although he still looked very calm. But the knuckles of the fingers that were clinging to the wall and stomping were somewhat white. It also revealed the nervousness of the old general.

Finally, when the generals behind couldn't bear it anymore, Rostock spoke.

"Okay! The rabbit is in the nest! Let's go!"

In the distance, when the orc general Bastin was complacent, humans launched a lore!

First of all, in the ditch below the city that has been mostly filled. Underground trenches originally dug by humans. The pipelines hidden in the ground have been buried long ago, after Rostock gave the order of "start".

The valves of those pipelines have already been opened. The soldiers who controlled the valve in the city desperately unscrewed the opening of the pipe!

soon. Under the transportation of the pipeline, in the trenches that seemed to have been filled one after another, large tracts of oil were sprayed from the pipeline!

These expensive oils. At this moment, it was secretly injected into those trenches, quietly. Quietly soak the logs filled in by the orcs in the trench, as well as the things that were originally arranged by humans to ignite the fire.

And at this time, all the orc warriors above and below the city. Suddenly, I heard a series of extremely strange sounds...

Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka...

A series of movements seemed to be rolling mechanical winches. But it seemed to come from inside the city wall! The voice was faint. But like thunder, for a while, the sound kept ringing, and the orc warriors were a little at a loss.

under the city wall. When the armored phalanx of orcs were still crowded under the city wall one after another, when the generals could no longer hold back, Rostock spoke.

"Okay! The rabbit is in the nest! Let's go!"

far away. When the orc general Bastin was complacent, humans launched a lore!

First of all, in the moat under the city that has been mostly filled up, the trenches that were originally dug by humans have already buried pipes hidden in the ground one by one. After Rostock ordered "Start".

The valves of those pipelines had already been opened, and the soldiers who controlled the valves in the city desperately unscrewed the openings of the pipelines!

Soon, under the transportation of the pipeline, one after another seemed to have been filled in the trenches. A large area of ​​oil was sprayed from the pipeline!

These expensive oils are secretly poured into those trenches at this moment. quietly. Quietly soak the logs filled in by the orcs in the trench, as well as the things that were originally arranged by humans to ignite the fire.

And at this time, all the orc warriors above and below the city suddenly heard a series of extremely strange voices...

Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka...

A series of movements that seemed to be the rolling of a mechanical winch, but seemed to come from inside the city wall! The sound was faint, but it was like muffled thunder. For a while, the sound kept ringing, and the orc warriors were a little at a loss.

Under the city wall, there are still orc warriors crowded in the lower half of the city wall one after another in the armored phalanx of orcs. It immediately turned into water without a source! They couldn't move forward, because the human soldiers were firmly guarding the female wall of the lower city. They cannot go back. There was no reinforcements coming up behind him. Because the ladder has been completely destroyed!!

Seeing such a huge change. Orc General Bastin's eyes, which were still somewhat powerful, suddenly fell into a haze! Its eyelids twitched violently, and then immediately roared: "Quick! Let the soldiers under the city wall back quickly!!!"

It roared with anger and anxiety.

But, it's too late!!

Inside the fort. The human longbowmen lined up again, and under the command of the observers, the longbowmen carried out several rounds of projectiles again!

Only, this time. The target was not an orc warrior. But...the trenches!!

The longbow rested on the ground, and it was a special rocket whose arrowhead was wrapped in ignition fuel! One by one, the officers trotted all the way with torches in their hands. Run quickly in front of every archer. Set the arrow on fire!

After a burst of bowstring vibration sound. Rockets are flying out of the sky! It's like a meteor shower in the sky!!

Countless rockets were shot at the trench area, and in those trenches, the wood that had been quietly soaked in oil. sack. There are also the corpses of the orcs... and the burning objects that have been buried below to start the fire. Instantly ignited!!

One after another, flames quickly burst out of the trenches, and the flames staggered and condensed together, almost in a moment, before most of the orc warriors could react, the flames had already spread rapidly. spread!!

A group of trenches as long as 100 meters deep, in fact, each trench is connected internally! In addition, the sky is covered by rockets. The trenches turned into walls of fire, and then quickly spread along the connected parts of the trenches, and suddenly turned into a sea of ​​fire with a width of 100 meters!!!

And under the city wall, those orcs who lost their ladders are crowding in a daze, and the orcs are crossing the trench position and approaching the city wall one by one. Almost just a few breaths in between. I was engulfed by that sea of ​​fire!!!

100 meters!

What is the concept of a hundred meters?

Even the fastest runner among human beings has to run 100 meters. It also takes at least ten seconds! Not to mention most people. But not that speed!

Not to mention the orcs! Although the orcs are physically strong. But it is definitely not good at speed! What's more, they are wearing heavy armor!! Running is more strenuous!! Slower!

Needless to say, at the speed of orcs running. A hundred meters away from the sea of ​​flames, before you can run out, you have already been burned into a ball of fire!

A hundred-meter-long sea of ​​flames. Immediately engulfed team after team of orc warriors inside!

Countless orcs roared desperately. Pushing and squeezing. Fleeing towards the surroundings with all their strength! It's a pity that there are fires everywhere, making many orcs in a panic, and they can't even tell the direction clearly!

In a panic. Every orc is desperately trying to run back, every orc is trying to push away the slow companions in front to escape, but. The orcs caught in the sea of ​​fire and unable to escape, unable to discern their direction! In the midst of the crowd. Get lost in no time!

Even most of the orcs who didn't know their direction didn't run backwards at all! They ran sideways!.

The trench position is as wide as 100 meters, so what about the length of the sides? Longer!!

This is a huge sea of ​​flames. The screams of the orcs soared to the sky! Countless orcs were buried in the sea of ​​flames, one by one, the orcs in the team turned into burning fireballs! They are covered with long hair, and they are more vulnerable than humans. Burning! Most of the orcs ran a few steps away. They fell down weakly, and some orcs were choked by the smoke after burning and couldn't breathe!

Basting was almost stunned for half a minute. Only then did he finally wake up. An order was issued!

It sent two phalanx people to rush to fight the fire, trying to pull out the soldiers who were trapped in the sea of ​​fire. But on the battlefield. Where can I find something to put out the fire?

not to mention. Human archers are still hiding inside the city walls, commanded by observers. Round after round of projectiles!

The orcs below the city struggled and screamed in the flames. The flames soared into the sky! But the orcs on the city wall seemed to be in shock collectively!

Hearing the heart-piercing howls of countless companions and similar people, the orc on the city wall said, "Ming Dan is timid! I am finally timid!!

at this time. From the towers on both sides of the city wall. Team after team of fully armed new human forces rushed out! These soldiers have been waiting for a long time under the strict order of Rostock! Now they are giving an order. These soldiers swarm out!

The leader of the team is the son of General Rostock, who is famous for his bravery in the Stormtrooper Legion, Reoenthal!

"Drive these spear monsters off the wall!!!"

Luo Yantar roared majesticly and retreated from the city wall. He drew a huge sword. Lead by example. He took the lead in rushing towards the lone orc army that was crowded on the city wall! Behind him was a group of human soldiers!!

The resistance has gradually returned to calm from fierce!

Above the city wall, those who lost their retreat. Lost reinforcements. Unable to move forward and unable to retreat, the orcs were alone. After a strenuous resistance, human beings finally counterattacked one after another continuously!!

Countless orcs were killed by humans. Some desperate orcs. Just hugging the nearby human beings and leaping towards the city wall!

After fighting for nearly half an hour, more than two thousand orc warriors successfully climbed the city wall in the morning. All destroyed!

And under the city wall. The sea of ​​fire burned for a whole day!

There are charred corpses of orcs all over the place!

Until the fire gradually dissipated. There was still black smoke rising from the ground. The orc corpses on the ground were so burned that they couldn't tell their true colors. One by one. Some are scattered all over the place, and some are piled up in a pile. On the city wall, there are still many orc corpses hanging on those huge spikes...

The orc general Bastin in the distance fell into a terrible silence, his eyes were full of anger, and his teeth were gritted. Staring at the human city wall!

The sound of fighting on the city wall has ended, which is enough to tell Bastin that its attack has completely failed! Those lone troops on the city wall have been completely wiped out by humans!

Ten armored phalanxes! A total of 10,000 orc warriors, less than 3,000 came back!!

In addition to the nearly 6,000 cannon fodder lost to fill the trenches... Today's first battle, I lost more than 13,000 lives!

But the city wall of human beings! The tall city wall. It is full of tingling stabs! After being smoky, the outside of the city wall has turned into a black city wall. But still standing there majestically! Silent. Like a cold monster that will swallow the life of the orcs at any time!!

"Victory! We are victorious!! Father!!"

Reoenthal rushed to Rostock with an excited expression on his face. The brave young general's armor was covered in blood, and there were several spots on his body. Only half of the long sword in his hand remained, and the helmet fell off.

But General Rostock's expression was not at all relaxed. Looking at his excited son, he said calmly, "We just won a battle. General Roenthal, now is not the time to be happy."

"According to the observation report. These monsters lost at least 10,000 people!" Luo Yantar still couldn't suppress his excitement: "10,000 enemies were injured in one battle. Father, this is a big victory!"

"The army wants to call me an adult!" Rostock glared at his son.

Then he looked at the generals around him. Slowly said in a serious voice: "Everyone! We can't be careless! There are still many, many enemies! Although we won this first battle, a lot of it was luck! For example, the wind direction! The big fire under the city. Although it burned Many enemies died, but because the wind is not blowing from the north today! Think about it, if the wind blows from the north today, we are on the south side. We set the fire on our own. It will burn our own city wall!"

"What's the matter! We have set up isolation zones under the city walls and fire extinguishing devices." Luo Yantar laughed loudly: "Speaking of which, the city wall designed by Lord Tulip is really great!"

General Rostock nodded: "Let's pass the victory to the imperial capital. Don't forget to write down the merits of the Duke of Tulip in the military newspaper. Without the design of the city wall, we would never have won so easily... and the one who calculated the climate and The astrologer of the wind direction, also give him a credit."

"Yes!" The clerk and officer beside him hurriedly recorded them one by one.

After General Rostock finished speaking, he stood up and looked at the many generals under the ground: "We can't relax! Everyone! The fire device in the trench under the city wall is a one-time use! After it is used up this time, it will not be used next time! And .We have very little kerosene. It is not enough for us to do this again. The enemy is not a fool. There are too many! Let the logistics officer rush to mobilize urgently! Send the wounded soldiers down as soon as possible... General Miro's troops fought bravely in this battle. The sacrifice was great. Let his troops temporarily retreat to recuperate... Roenthal , order your men to the walls. Replace General Miro's men!"

After issuing the orders one by one, the old general's eyes deeply swept over everyone: "Everyone! The enemy is stronger than we expected! I believe everyone has seen it. These monster races. They have powers far beyond ours. Fighting power, and fearless courage! There are large numbers of troops outside the city! We must be prepared for a long-term struggle! No one is allowed to relax!"

"yes!"

With the command of the coach. All the generals of the Storm Legion stood upright.

"Also. In view of the fact that the situation in the first battlefield is going well, I use the authority of the commander in chief of the northern theater of the empire. Approve the second set of raid operations plan! Execute immediately! Send someone to contact General Andre, now is the time for me to see this army What is the combat effectiveness of the so-called air force?"

A murderous look flashed in Rostock's eyes: "Everyone, work hard! Fight the enemy bravely, and I will ask for credit for everyone!"

In the largest tent among the orc army. Braziers were burning all around. The face of the orc giant Rock in the tent was imprinted into a gloomy expression.

White Rhino General Basting knelt in front of him. The huge body fell on the ground. The buttocks are pouted high, the forehead and palms are pressed to the ground. Plead guilty to your leader.

This kneeling posture of the orc looks ridiculous. Especially the white rhino race. When they kneel to the ground, their huge buttocks look even more prodigious.

But at this moment. The leaders of all the orcs around. But no one dared to laugh.

"My lord! Today's battle is my failure. Please punish me with my family's ancient law!" The white rhinoceros Bastin's voice was hoarse.

Rock stared at Basting in front of him. Its heart is struggling.

Although angry in my heart. After all, as one of the giants of the orcs. This battle. Thirteen thousand orc soldiers were lost. But the enemy's walls remained intact, a stark defeat. Make it unacceptable.

But to punish Bastin... Bastin is an excellent warrior of the Rhino Clan! He is also a rock of the Rhino Clan. Naturally, they should treat their relatives extra favorably! Although the rhinoceros clan is the royal family of the cattle clan. It is also the royal family among all the Hoof Clans. But the population of the rhinoceros has not been large, as the king. Rock is even more unwilling to use the loyal lineage on which he relies.

"Get up." Yan Yan finally spoke, and said something in a low voice.

The fair-skinned bull Bastin heaved a sigh of relief. It knew that Wang's anger would not erupt for the time being.

"We underestimated the fighting power of humans. It seems that these despicable guys have become more cunning over the past 10,000 years. These guys are no match for our orcs. They will only use these despicable tricks... We must be more careful next time Just do it."

The heavy sound of rock. No one around dared to refute the giant's words.

"We only lost once, and our elite ace hasn't been used yet! Those damned dwarves, urge them! Let them make those siege machines as soon as possible! They brag about how amazing their technology is all day long. Let them Hurry up and get something real!"

Rock growled angrily. The body walked a few steps back and forth in the tent. Suddenly there was a flash of desperation in his eyes: "Let the priests prepare... It seems that we are going to take down the human city wall. We need Behemoth to join the battle!!"

As soon as this word came out. Immediately, most of the orc warriors around showed expressions of surprise. Affection.

soon. The first opponent was the defeated sinner, Basting!

"King!" Bastin knelt down on the ground again. He begged loudly: "King! Now is not the time to dispatch the Behemoth Behemoth! It is not winter yet, and the fur of the Behemoth has not yet fully grown! Moreover, the Behemoth Behemoth is dispatched once. Control and drive the Behemoth. Need Consuming a lot of mana from the priests! Now this is only the first line of defense for the humans we attack! There are a lot of humans. In their country. I don’t know how many walls there are! We didn’t capture the humans and tortured them. Is the country a big city! And we don’t have many Behemoths. It can’t be used like this from the beginning...it should be reserved for the most critical moment..."

talking. It raised its head, but suddenly met Rock's cold eyes. Baisting, the white rhinoceros, felt a chill in his heart!

It hurriedly shouted: "My lord! Please give me another chance! I don't need the behemoth behemoth. I will definitely be able to take down this human city! I will use victory to wash away today's failure!"

"Okay. I'll give you a chance. I'll transfer a team of rhinos! There's also a team of priests... Besides. I'll give you two giant monsters to help you!!" Rock shouted: "If you can't take this city again , then I will go to battle in person! But you have to know! If the situation is so forced that I, the king, go to battle in person, then it will be a shame to our whole family! The first thing I do before going to battle is to kill you first. Tu Your entire household!"

Basting made a quick calculation in his mind.

The rhino team with the strongest fighting power of the Niu tribe, and a team of priests... This is a huge boost! There are also two giant monsters!

Although the giant monster is much weaker than the Beastmen of the orc race. But it is also terrifying in combat power (that is, the giant beast with a height of several meters in front of the battle, with a huge drum and a six-sided iron cone. This kind of giant monster is said to have the blood of the Behemoth giant beast. Although the combat power is stronger than the real one Meng Behemoth is much, much lower. But it is also very scary)

As long as he is careful of human tricks, then... it shouldn't be a problem!

"Yes! King! I will definitely take this city!"

The white rhino Bastin gritted his teeth.

"Fight hard. Don't let that tiger and wolf see our joke!" Rock gritted his teeth fiercely. .
