Orc Tyrant

When the attack started, it came suddenly and brutally—not a single village was invaded, not a dozen, but dozens or hundreds of villages, outposts, and farms.

This assault had such a rapid, coordinated, and brutal nature that, in the eyes of those far from the front line, the only sign that appeared was silence.

This silence is like the entire region being dug out of the empire's territory. Death comes so completely and suddenly, they can't even scream or shout for help from their neighbors in painful struggle. .

The doomsday that fell on the area near the edge of the rainforest in the province of Kramatia was so fast that even after the war, it was impossible to confirm the true scale of the offensive.

The fate of the heavily guarded Harrow police post, the fate of the frontier colonies of Pat, Katri, and Boru, the fate of the coastal town of Eritz, and the fate of the ancient Abnon University, as well as more than 60 other human settlements Little is known about the fate of dots, except for the invaders who came, and then they fell silent.

The first warning to be sent came from a fishing boat named Iron Spoon.

When it appeared in the sea off the port of Tyre, it burned from the bow to the stern, as if it had been plowed by a nail rake.

Those who saw the alert were shocked and unbelievable, but as the surviving fishermen reported the atrocities they had seen on the coast and the strange fleets roaming the sea, everything became clear.

Oak attacked from another direction, from a direction that would never be noticed.

On the west side of Tyre, near the Waka Rainforest, an area called Yanze is blocked by many rivers and tidal flats. Since ancient times, it has been regarded as a western barrier for the province because it is not conducive to large-scale marches.

So how did these oaks pass through this area?

No one knows the answer.

The local militiamen were mobilized, the fleet off the coast of Tyre was ordered to be concentrated, and the units already assembled to support the frontline were soon received new orders for redeployment.

When the provincial capitals were united and mobilized to prepare for the battle, communications became more and more obstructed, forcing the Empire to use manpower to transmit information to those settlements that were still in the dark about the arrival of the nightmare, and until the messengers’ warnings were delivered At that time, the true scale of this offensive was only revealed.

An entire Ork Legion, an intact and powerful Ork Legion-the Blood Axe Legion.

But even at this time, the top empire still knew nothing about the nature of the raid—the authorities had not received any definitive post-war reports, and the enemy’s appearance was still unknown.

What is even more difficult is that the battle at the Witlier Grand Canyon is still not over. The defenders did not repel the enemy as expected. The war turned into a terrible tug-of-war, and a lot of manpower was poured into this flesh and blood mill.

Until the launch of this new round of raids, the imperial army had casualties of more than 150,000 people, not including "missing persons", and the true loss of force was conservatively estimated at more than 200,000.

This is already a thorny one. The lost troops also include a large number of veterans and elite troops. The loss of these precious forces cannot be made up in a short period of time.

What is more serious is the loss of supplies. Less than a month of fierce fighting has exhausted all of Tyre’s arsenals. Although assistance from other regions has not been interrupted, due to the increasingly active Occo pirates, maritime support is changing. It's getting harder and harder.

In addition to materials and ammunition, the food problem is even more serious.

Tyre has accumulated a large number of refugees, and even with the lowest food ration, millions of tons of food are still needed to sustain it.

As Oak swept the entire empire's granary, these food gaps became a more serious threat than bullets.

Under such internal and external difficulties, when the Blood Axe Legion suddenly appeared on the west side of Tyre and began to advance at high speed, the top commander of the front line, General Yushijin, almost fainted.

"No wonder... no wonder!"

At that time, he was paralyzed in a chair and said to the people around him:

"I have always wondered why according to intelligence, Guk should have four legions, but only three can be seen on the battlefield... It turned out that he kept a knife and wanted to kill us when we were weakest. Seal the throat!"

"Sir! This is impossible! Why can they be silent..."

Many people still expressed their doubts, but Yushkin immediately realized how the blood axe passed through the salt and appeared outside the city of Tyre.

"It's the sea, our navy... careless."

After receiving the news from Beruf that everything went well, Guk, who was leading his troops to attack the last main peak of Mt. Mihir, seemed very happy.

"I'm really a genius!"

He boasted like this to the boys around him:

"I can't walk on land. Can we still walk on the water? It used to be impossible without a boat. Now that there are more big boats in Golden Tooth, we can walk wherever we want!"

It turned out that after sweeping the southern part of the province, Guk transferred the Blood Axe Army to the Great Rainforest of Waka and asked them to stand by on the north side of the rainforest near the sea.

Some kids interpret this order as a punishment, because Beruf violated many of Guk's orders.

But only the warlords know that what Guk really meant was to let him and his army wait for the Golden Tooth fleet by the sea.

At that time, the Golden Tooth fleet had already set sail, along the coastline all the way east, avoiding the patrol routes of the Imperial Navy along the way, and the Empire had little encounter with the Ouke pirates and did not have any defense.

In this way, the Golden Tooth fleet arrived smoothly and carried the lightly loaded Blood Axe Legion onto the ship, and then an unexpected landing operation took place.

Although almost all dirty tanks and heavy artillery have been abandoned, the Blood Axe Corps still has a large number of motorcycles, armored vehicles and light artillery. More importantly, they are the most disciplined army and can use various tactics to make up for the equipment. Loss.

For example, the special warfare boys cut off all telephone lines and railways on the offensive route in advance, so that in the initial stage of the offensive, Tyre was unaware of it.

When they found out, the main force of the Blood Axe Legion was only more than two hundred kilometers away from the city.

The preparations for the war were in a hurry. All the scouts and rangers were sent frantically to this new front. Even the Marines were sent to station in Fort Modera on the west side of Tyre, which is the current city. The only barrier.

The mayor of Tyre, Gabrun Lang, used his power to transfer troops from other areas to the front lines to enrich Modras’ defenses. He also brought in many merchant ships and formed a huge fleet in the port. This fleet will be the only salvation at the last moment-only for the upper class.

The people were also very panicked. The military began to mobilize young and middle-aged men, curfews had begun on the street, the national anthem and the holy father's hymns were broadcast on the radio, and the engineers began to build barricades and defensive facilities, all of which exacerbated the tension.

Crimes such as riots and robberies began to become frequent, because hunger and despair caused many people to flee towards a safer area in the west, but the imperial army set up a large number of checkpoints on the west side of the road in the name of strictly guarding against spies, anyone without a pass Don't go through, forcibly punching the card will kill directly.

As a result, there are still a large number of people stranded in the city of Tyre, and the chaos caused is getting better every day.

The tense nerves of the military department under pressure were about to burst out. The nobles and commanders were all putting pressure on Lang, hoping that he would take the initiative instead of waiting for the next blow.

They made many active retreat plans, ranging from the large-scale sea evacuation suggested by the Imperial Navy to the generals suggesting an armed land escort.

Long had decided to veto all these plans one by one, and in this matter he won the firm support of the supreme commander of the night blade, Nutans.

As the eyes of the queen and the spokesperson of power, his words are very heavy, and he also directly conveys the meaning of the shadow prince.

"If you stick to Tyre, no one can take a step back."
