Throne of the North

There are many orcs in Xiangshan Plain. Ryan said there are 10,000, but in fact, there are more than that.

The nobles of the North Wind Province have accumulated food for 18,000 defenders for three months, which is prepared for the inconvenience of transportation in winter.

On the day when the fortress was breached, the soldiers had no time to care about these logistical supplies, and naturally all of them were cheap for the orcs.

Therefore, the black goat people who occupied a large amount of food, more than 20,000 people, remained in this fortress.

"In the fortress, the meaning of quantity is not absolute. Block those holes and close the south gate. Besides, they don't know our number, right?"

The shouts and killings shook the earth. The knights' attendants did not ride horses, but rushed to those hidden roads as infantry. The orcs who were still sleeping among them had not reacted in the first time, and were pierced through the chest by the sharp long sword produced by the frozen land.

It's not that the head can't be chopped off, but the bones of the orcs are hard, and chopping off the head is also a loss for the knight's weapons.

It was much easier to pierce the heart. The orcs could not wear any clothes. The linen clothes snatched from humans were only strips of cloth when they were on them, which could not prevent the sword from penetrating.

As the screams of dozens of orcs rang out, other orcs around them gradually woke up and reacted, looking angrily at the humans who appeared, holding the weapons they had snatched or simply rushing towards the humans with bare hands.

Orcs have no morale. Before they really face the fear of death, the orcs always want to kill all the humans in front of them violently. They are even less sensitive to numbers than these soldiers.

With three or four hundred corpses falling, the remaining orcs were stimulated by the blood, and some became more irritable, while others began to retreat because of the fear of death.

A large number of orcs were divided into two parts. Beside Ryan, the servants kept killing the irritable orcs who rushed up. They were not ordinary soldiers, or even ordinary knights. Ryan stood between them and formed the most critical layer of faith blessing.

Powerful force, the strength of these knight attendants is no less than that of the strong orcs. Their agile speed, superb skills, and even strong desire to fight are suppressing the black goat men in front of them.

They are more like violent beasts than orcs, but at the same time, the knight attendants have the calmness and rationality of humans.

In groups of three or five, ten is a complete team. They will help each other and resist attacks from any direction. This is their battle formation in the war. Such orderly military discipline guarantees the combat effectiveness of the thousand knight attendants.

One by one, the black goat men fell in front of them. The soldiers who leaned together held a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, and kept rushing forward.

Around, the thousands of ordinary soldiers watched the orcs fall so fragilely, and finally picked up their confidence. Morale has little effect on orcs, but it is the most terrible buff for humans.

Strong morale can allow mortals to face the dragon's breath flames, and defeated morale can make humans flee for their lives when facing the skeleton army, and be chased and slaughtered by the skeletons.

In the Xiangshan Plain Fortress, the orcs farther away were also alarmed. The black goat people who had not yet woken up were a little irritable, looking for traces of humans with red eyes. No higher ruler appeared. These black goat people had no rules. They did not wait for a large number of orcs to gather together, but rushed in the direction of the human voice they heard in their own way.

But the black goat people in front would be pushed away by the black goat people behind, but their number was too large. As the black goat people in the front continued to die, in the end, a large number of black goat people still surrounded the human army in the middle.

Looking around, Ryan saw a black mass. Compared with the werewolves, their faces were handsome werewolves, but their eyes and the goat horns covered with demon language brought a particularly terrifying look.

The pitch-black fur is the characteristic of the black goat people, and it also makes them powerful. You must know that the North is covered with wind and snow, but the snow-white world, the black goat people can survive, which is itself a kind of proof.

Even if the Black Goatmen here are just ordinary civilian Black Goatmen in their tribe, and they are not even qualified to follow the orcs who entered the North Wind Province to kill humans and plunder the southern land.

They are still strong, stronger than ordinary human soldiers, and twice as strong as these human soldiers who don’t even have defense.

"Remember what I said this morning, occupying this place and occupying the fortress is your only hope of survival."

"Dead or alive, let the bodies of these damn orcs tell us the answer."

"Kill!"

The orcs shouted and killed the humans, and the soldiers became crazy, desperately stabbing at the rushing Black Goatmen.

The narrow fortress road was blocked by humans, so that they didn’t have to face all the orc enemies at once, which gave ordinary soldiers a chance to breathe. After the soldiers in front fell, the soldiers behind them could take over and continue to resist the attacks of these Black Goatmen.

Of course, the main battlefield was still the one thousand knight attendants of the Stag Legion led by Ryan. They gathered on a street and blocked the largest number of Black Goat Men. They were wearing full-body armor, and as their swords chopped, sweat seeped through the gaps in the armor and mixed with the blood on the ground.

The muddy ground and the stimulation of blood made these black goat men more and more crazy. Fewer black goat men fled. In their minds, there seemed to be whispers of demons calling them to kill and make bloody sacrifices.

Suddenly, one of the black goat men roared towards the sky with great passion and force. His blood-red eyes revealed thin black lines, which formed a language that humans could not understand. Finally, the black goat man broke the horns on his head.

Blood and pain enveloped the black goat man. He roared, causing resonance among the black goat men around him. Under the flow of blood, the two horns turned into thin scimitars. The black goat warriors with weapons and explosive power rushed over, and the scimitars slashed wildly on the knight's long sword, and the speed was getting faster and faster. When a scimitar passed the long sword's block and fell on the knight's armor, the huge force made the knight's face change.

Among the black goat men, the second one, the third one, in the blink of an eye, hundreds of black goat men sublimated their extraordinary attributes, unreasonably turned into black goat warriors, broke off the goat horns on their heads, and rushed towards the knights.

"It's blood."

Orcs are bloodthirsty, and they get the gift of the gods from the barbaric blood and killing, but Ryan did not expect these black goat men to be bloodthirsty to this extent, so easily unlocking the extraordinary shackles in their bodies.

Ryan suspected that the great existence served by the black goat men had a sign of awakening to some extent.

"Kill them with all your strength!"

Ryan roared, and then drew his weapon. The moment the legendary long sword was unsheathed, the flame turned into a giant dragon and appeared in the air. Then the flame dragon fell from the sky and smashed among the black goat men.

The blazing flames burned the bodies of hundreds of black goat men. The dragon's breath flames were not so easy to extinguish. One black goat man after another rolled on the ground, but in the end he could only turn into a charred corpse lying on the ground.

Ryan is a sky knight, but among the black goat people, there is no one who can compare with him.

Not only that, there is Brand beside him. Ryan used the materials born after the death of the gods in the other world to obtain the potion of sublimating the seeds of life. In a few months, Brand has already successfully become a sky knight.

The stag roared, and Brand inserted the long sword into the ground in front of him, and then threw the long sword out like pulling out a carrot. The majestic blood turned into a circle of blood-colored air waves, defeating the surrounding black goat people and flying away.

Sky knights and gold knights are simply two species. At this point, they have been able to initially expand their attack range beyond the edge that the long sword can touch.

The blood in the body is no longer limited to the size of the body. The body of a small human is qualified to contain the blood power comparable to that of a dragon.

This is a qualitative change, and it also makes war as casual as a game of unparalleled games for them.

Of course, the premise is that the enemies they face will not be extraordinary.

Ryan and Brand fought with all their strength, but their stimulation made more Black Goatmen make extraordinary breakthroughs and become Black Goatmen warriors.

The scimitars slashed towards Ryan, and Ryan slashed with the long sword in his hand, not only melting the two scimitars, but also throwing out the hot flames, igniting seven or eight Black Goatmen.

The power of the legendary weapon is far more than that, but Ryan can only exert this much at present.

No longer holding back, Brand guarded Ryan, and Ryan rushed out directly. His speed was very fast, and his power was also huge. The flames in front formed a path, and in the path, Ryan cut off the heads of all the Black Goatmen.

He kept killing. In fact, for the Sky Knight, there is a more convenient way to kill, that is, the Knight's combat skills. The powerful Knight's combat skills can destroy a town like the breath of a dragon, but Ryan has not yet comprehended any Knight's combat skills. The previous Heroic Spear and Stag Shield were absorbed by him like a passive ability.

The extraordinary Black Goat Warriors were harder to kill, but their numbers were too small. Ryan and Brand's killing speed was close to the speed at which the Black Goat Warriors became warriors, so the number of Black Goat Warriors on the battlefield always hovered around one or two hundred.

Finally, there were no more Black Goat Warriors among the Black Goat Warriors. This phenomenon seemed to represent the unique retreat of the Black Goat Civilization. A large number of orcs began to retreat, leaving behind those completely violent Black Goat Warriors.

"Don't chase."

Ryan's breathing became a little faster. The Black Goat Warriors were not pigs standing in front of him for him to kill. Every chop would waste energy. This was the case for him, and the knights and attendants behind him. As for the ordinary soldiers, they had already lost the strength to fight when the Black Goat Warriors retreated.

There was no rest in place. The ground was full of corpses and blood. The army retreated to a relatively safe place before finally sitting down against the house.

In the streets and alleys, war horses came over one by one. They were very smart and had been waiting.

"Rest for fifteen minutes."

The time was only roughly calculated, and fifteen minutes later, all the knights and attendants got on their horses. Ryan looked and saw that there were still empty horses on their backs. Their masters died in the previous battle. This was inevitable. Ryan's army was not immortal, and there would be casualties when facing orcs.

The war horses ran wildly on the road, and they charged towards the granary. The road was wide and flat. After all, the carriages transporting grain could not walk on such an awkward road.

The sound of the neighing of the war horses alerted the Black Goatmen who had just returned. They were stationed here. For the orcs, there was nothing more peaceful than sleeping next to food.

At this moment, they were also bearing the charge of the cavalry.

"kill!"

The amber sword in Ryan's hand could easily cut off the bones of the orcs. As the horses charged, more than a dozen black goatmen died in his hands. Around and behind him, the speed of the cavalry's attack brought no injuries.

The Black Goatmen, who had rested for less than two minutes, fled again. This time, they had no direction. As long as there was a place to move forward in all directions, they would flee.

"Run toward the chief!"

I don't know if it was humans or black goats who roared in the chaos. A large number of black goats seemed to have a direction and ran towards the fortress gate in the south. Of course they knew where their chief and other black goats had gone. place.

In the process, the Black Goatmen completely lost the courage to resist. Ryan led the cavalry to kill crazily behind them. The only things that could stop them were the corpses and the remains of buildings that were stumbling on the ground.

Boom! ! !

Iron hoofs trampled on the stone ground. Ryan came to the high wall of the fortress. Looking at the muddy traces on the snow outside and the backs of the black goat men in the distance, he guessed that there were about five to six thousand people who escaped.

Were more than 10,000 orcs killed in the city? Ryan thought about it and shook his head. The number was wrong.

"There are still orcs hiding in this fortress, find them."

With a roar, the thick city wall closed. At the same time, the metal gate with magic inscriptions also fell to the north. There were three gates in the north, and there was only one city gate in the south. This is not surprising. The construction of Xiangshan Plain Fortress It was originally intended to deal with the orcs in the north, so it naturally focused on defense.

Ryan returned to the soldiers and looked at those who were still alive... maybe less than 1,500 people. This war was indeed tragic. They faced four or five times the number of orcs. They relied on the narrow environment to meet the brave men and fought with courage. The blood exchange method persisted until the Bucks won.

"Victory belongs to us. We have recaptured the Xiangshan Plain Fortress. Now, in the name of the nobles, I allow you to enter the warehouse and take all the supplies you can."

"However, I need you to promise me that the things you took out include at least a pair of leather armor and a weapon."

"Don't forget what you rely on to survive, and don't forget that there is only one thing in this fortress that can give you food and clothing."

Ryan slowly led these soldiers to the warehouse. The tired soldiers also became excited and energetic at this time, and the pessimistic atmosphere caused by war and death gradually disappeared.

Big sacks. Each soldier was holding two big sacks that were about as tall as a man. Ryan asked them to choose defensive and offensive equipment. They wore them directly on their bodies and used their hands to grab the two big sacks with all their strength. .

Looking at Baron Lane and the many knight attendants behind the baron outside, these soldiers shrank their necks, feeling a little uneasy and afraid.

They took a lot, just in case the noble lord disagrees, in case...

"This fortress is very big and has military camps. Move your food in. From now on, you will be the defenders of this fortress and will defend against the orcs' attack here."

The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were not asked to put down the food.

This much food is enough for them to take home and feed their family for several months.

"Also, there is one more thing."

Ryan's voice made the soldiers' hearts tighten again.

"Go and collect the corpses from the previous battlefield, and throw the orc corpses under the fortress wall in the south. Collect the corpses of your companions, cover them with ice, and wait until the war is over for the nobles behind them to deal with them."

The soldiers were completely relaxed, and Baron Lane never targeted the food in their hands.

After the soldiers left, Ryan looked at Brand, who was a little embarrassed, and then looked at the centurions behind him.

"Leave half of it."

The knight attendants rushed into the warehouse, carried the materials out, passed through the plane gate, and sent them to the world of Bilge, where Bilge's people would naturally transport these materials to Ryan's warehouse.

Ryan's eating habits are not that extreme, and the half of the food left is enough. As for the question of whether the food is enough.

Most of the food supplied by the empire to support Beifeng Province is not here, but in the castles of the nobles. If there is less food here, they will naturally need to replenish the food later.
