"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The dull drum sound came from the ground, and a frightened prairie goshawk made a clear and sharp howl, flapping its wings vigorously, breaking through the thick clouds and flew away, while under its body On the endless prairie, several huge phalanxes are slowly advancing. The dull drum sound came from the Thunder Beast in the center of the phalanx. Each Thunder Beast had a huge basket-like thing on its back. There was a giant war drum in the middle, and two orcs stood on one side. , Struggling to hit the drumhead. And around them, countless orc warriors stepped forward following this drumbeat, forming a rhythmic sound of trampling the ground.
After three months of silence, the orc bear clan finally began to move south. Before that, the Beast King finally integrated the power of all the orc clans by force, and sent all the disobedient personnel to the Xingluo Islands by sea. . In the end, when the Bear Clan's soldiers were heading south, the Beast Emperor already had 400,000 warriors in his hands. This number was naturally not comparable to the one more than 4 years ago, but this time, the orc army There is no second voice in the middle, but the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.
When the Beast Emperor returned south, the chief of the Orc Black Hawk clan Alexandra fled to the control area of the imperial capital with a few people, which also gave humans enough for the coming second attack of the Orcs. It’s just that everyone didn’t expect the orcs to be so calm. Three months after they regained the new city of Thor’s fortress, they officially marched into the control area of the imperial capital. This is obviously not good news, because the longer the orcs were delayed. , Then their upcoming offensive will be fiercer. When the main force of the orcs was 50 kilometers away from the northern defense line of the imperial capital-the third northern fort, the highest commander of the third northern fort of the imperial capital, the commander of the first army of the imperial capital, Sharek, had already learned the news. The officers of a legion stayed in their military tents, using the sand table to study countermeasures, and beside him stood an old orc impressively, but Alexandra who fled to the control area of the imperial capital.
Because humans and orcs are completely different in appearance, it is impossible for both parties to spy on the other's hinterland. Therefore, Alexandra who fled to the imperial capital became an excellent guide, and Alexandra La naturally hopes that mankind can defeat the Beast Emperor and avenge his tribe. Of course, he knows everything is endless.
Sharrek stood in the middle of the sand table, watching his staff keep busy. The Three Forts in the north would release more than 1,000 scouts every day. So many people would naturally bring back massive amounts of information. All the staff officers have to do is to sort them out, and then show them on the sand table.
Looking at the model representing the orc army slowly approaching the Three Forts in the North, Sharek frowned slightly. The Imperial Capital relied on the Three Forts to build the entire northern defense line. As the highest commander of the entire defense line, Sharek had The number of troops that can be commanded is as much as 200,000, but the number of orcs on the opposite side is at least between 350,000 and 450,000, which is almost twice that of the imperial capital army. It is calculated based on the combat power of 5 human fighters against 1 orc. Method, Sharek is equivalent to facing 2 million enemy troops at this time. According to Alexandra’s description, this time the Beast King went south again. It was originally planned for a long time, and spent a lot of time staying in the Thor Fortress. It should be to integrate the internal strength of the orcs. Now the Beast King is directing his army to the north. Three Forts, I believe there will be no internal friction in the orcs similar to the time of the Thor Fortress battle. The North Three Forts are just temporary fortresses. Their main material is wood, not the hard rock like Thor's fortress, and the defense effect is naturally greatly reduced. Under the circumstances, Xia Ruike was not optimistic about the battle that was about to break out.
Looking at the entire sand table, there is still no trace of the imperial capital reinforcements, but the soldier model representing the orc army is placed at the far north. Sharek can't help sighing, although it was a few months ago. I already learned the news of the return of the Beast Emperor, but the Imperial Capital still couldn't concentrate its strength, because Senat's army launched a fierce attack on the southern defense line of the Imperial Capital almost at the same time.
The emperor has a standing force of 1 million, but only ten formal legions of 900,000 soldiers can really come in handy. The rest are reserve legions and garrisons. Sharek was ordered to garrison the Three Forts in the north, and naturally brought all the soldiers of the First Army. After learning the accurate news of the return of the Beast King, Orlando urgently transferred an elite legion and a reserve legion one month later, bringing the total strength of the entire northern defense line to 200,000. This number is difficult to increase. After all, The southern front was also very exhausted. Senat’s army dragged the imperial capital’s nearly 300,000 troops in the small town of Mori, and then eliminated an elite army guarding the imperial capital and expedition to the Jonas army of the Clay tribe. In addition to the garrison troops defending the area under the rule of the imperial capital, Orlando's forces are also stretched, and I am afraid it will be difficult to send more soldiers to Sharek. It’s not that Sharek didn’t know these things. In fact, he could figure out how many people General Orlando could send to him without asking at all. Then, based on the travel time of the messengers he sent out, he could roughly calculate the arrival of the few reinforcements to the north. Sanbao's time, and these can't alleviate the pressure in Xia Ruike's heart.
Sharrek is under a lot of pressure. This is not because he is timid. In the past few years, many officers in the Imperial Capital have been desperately learning the language of the orcs, understanding the history and combat style of the orcs, and Sharek is naturally no exception. After countless war games, Sharek and the others did not find any particularly effective methods. The only consensus was to use superior forces for attrition wars, or to use a large number of magicians for indiscriminate bombing. These are unrealistic for the current northern defense line. There is no effective plan to deal with the enemy, this is the reason for the great pressure of Xia Ruike.
"Legion Commander, the latest information." The adjutant who walked quickly thought about Sharek's thoughts. The adjutant came to Sharek's side in a few steps, and after a military salute, he pulled out from the intelligence folder in his hand. A thin letterhead quickly read: "The information just received, the Jonas Legion has dispatched 10,000 fighters to quickly support us, the messenger said that these 10,000 are all shooters, by Colin and Thomas. Under the leadership, they will constantly change horses along the way, and they will arrive between midnight today and early tomorrow morning. The follow-up troops of the Jonas Legion will also arrive in the next three days."
After hearing the news, Sharek couldn't help smiling in his heart. The First Army and the Jonas Army have always had a deep contradiction. After all, the First Army has always been the strongest army in the imperial capital except the Royal Knights. However, when Faras came to power, he vigorously supported Jonas, giving priority to both manpower and material resources, so that Jonas’s third legion quickly caught up with Sharek’s first legion. and.
On the bright side, neither Sharek nor Jonas could express anything, but the fighters of the two legions were fighting back in the back. Fighting in the bar is naturally commonplace. Sharek’s subordinates are relatively strong. After all, they have always been the strongest force in the imperial capital, and the Jonas Legion is unusually united. Therefore, the two sides have been fighting constantly, and it is difficult for anyone to completely gain the upper hand. Such a small friction will not affect the overall situation, but will stimulate the sense of competition between the two legions. Therefore, although the top level is very clear, they pretend not to know.
What Sharek never expected was that at this time Jonas sent out reinforcements to himself without reservation, which moved him very much, and at the same time, in Sharek's heart, he was also a little surprised. According to the distance, the Three Forts in the north where Sharek is stationed is certainly closer to the capital city of Fernando, but the Jonas Legion, stationed in the remote Jinghu Lake area, is the first to arrive. This has to explain the importance of mobility. It seems this The first legion of his own is going to be beaten by Jonas.

"It's good to give me all the fucking! You two in a team, with a shield in the front and a sword in the back. If anyone dares to look back, just cut it off, and all the family members will be put to death! If anyone rushes forward, there will be ( (Meat) eat, there are women for use!" Kobe, the little bearded boss, shouted at a large group of cowering men in front of him.
Kobe is a captain of the Senate army. What he has to do now is to command his men as a supervising team to drive out the strong men in front of him to attack the position of the imperial capital army. Nowadays, Senat's troops have lost a lot of strength, but no matter how everyone persuaded, Senat refused to change his orders, and in desperation, he had to adopt this method of cannon fodder attack.
These ragged guys are all ordinary people. After being captured by Senat's army, they forcibly drove to the battlefield. Due to the fall of Freedom Paradise, the Senate army is extremely scarce. These cannon fodder units can only use the weapons of sword and shield warriors with two people, and the death rate is naturally extremely high.
Actually, Senat himself knows very well that this level of attack is already strong outside, but he has no choice. If the defection of Freedom Paradise made Senat’s army lose its logistical supplies, then the departure of Mochizuki City completely lost the possibility of Senat’s victory. Therefore, Senat could only make a desperate bet and pin his hopes on his chief magician. Safanas' body.
Senate knows the power behind Safanas very well. In order to get its support, Senat is willing to pay any price. Anyway, after he is defeated, he will lose his life, and if he wins, it is nothing more than dividing the final result. It's just a big piece, those things don't belong to him now, and he doesn't need to feel sorry for it.
According to Safanas’ request, Senat dispatched his own assassin organization to eradicate several important druid tribes in the mainland, and commanded the army to storm the southern defense line of the imperial capital. Then Senat was even more on his own. Extremely harsh and harsh laws were promulgated in the ruling area of China. Whether it was a thief who stole a copper coin, a beggar who was begging on the street, or a prisoner (sorrow) who scolded the Senat regime behind his back, all were arrested. Many of these guys will be sent to the Xingluo Islands by boat, and those who exceed their capacity will be escorted to the front line as cannon fodder troops to put pressure on the Imperial Capital army.
