Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 240: The beginning of the battle (1)
The so-called misfortune does not come singly. In the headquarters, while the contemporary squad leaders were still arguing about the identity of the outer fleet, someone hurriedly pushed in and reported that a beacon had been lit by an outpost.
Everyone’s unsightly complexion instantly became worse. They set up an early warning mechanism similar to a beacon tower at the outpost to be able to warn the enemy’s invasion in advance, but they really waited until the moment when the warning came. No one will be happy about it.
The entire fort has been plunged into an almost chaotic busy schedule. Originally, they had already done a lot of mobilization in their respective classes in the first two days. Everyone did not say that they were not mentally prepared, but now the situation is a bit different. The one next to them The Silver Fleet was completely unplanned.
Slightly reassured everyone that the fleet of suspected elves stopped not far away and did no other actions. Not only did they not use long-range weapons or spells to attack, but they did not send people ashore. Originally, the headquarters was in Discuss whether they need to take the initiative to send someone to negotiate in the past, but now the sudden attack of the orcs makes them temporarily give up this plan.
Regardless of the attitude and position of this fleet towards Dawn Academy, as long as they can continue to keep onlookers like this, it will be enough until the end of the exam.
Although many people find this idea unreliable, they really can’t think of a better way other than that.
The people who arranged the reconnaissance returned quickly. Their defense the previous few days was still effective. They arranged for personnel to use the farsighted scroll around the outpost to reconnaissance around the clock. After discovering the enemy, they first used the beacon to notify the people in the fort, and then rushed back. Specific notification.
As expected, the orcs' wolf cavalry troops are coming here, but the number is not very large. According to the rough statistics of the observers, the number is about three or four hundred, but it is closely behind the wolf cavalry. Yes, nearly 3,000 fully armed orc infantrymen are on the march.
"Wolf cavalry I can understand. If you are marching at full speed, you can go in the morning and at night. But I can't understand the orc infantry. Why are they here at the same time." Xiao Lin stared at the person who came back from reconnaissance. , I hope to get confirmation of this information.
"Hey! You also gave the farsighted scroll. How could the intelligence be wrong!" The scout was from another class. Hearing Xiao Lin's question, the monitor of this class naturally refused to agree.
Xiao Lin shook his head and sighed: "It's not against him, but it's weird. The reason I paid so much attention to reconnaissance before. I just wanted to determine the enemy's movement. The intelligence returned from reconnaissance is that there is no orc barracks around this area. Stationed, where did the orc infantry suddenly emerge from."
"The little jungle nearby?" Fame asked puzzledly.
"The jungle is not big. If we passed there, our outpost would have found it."
"But if they lie in ambush in the jungle ahead of time, just wait for the right time, such as when the wolf cavalry arrives, and then cooperate with them to rush out?" Xiao Lin's words made everyone's expressions even worse.
If this inference is true, then we are closer to the previous question. From the very beginning, the orcs expected that they would engage in this landing battle?
With a heavy heart. Everyone quietly waited for the enemy's arrival on the head of the city.
At about noon, someone on the top of the city shouted: "Come!"
The mighty orc army is getting closer and closer. This is truly a force composed entirely of orcs. There is no murloc army like that. Several squad leaders such as Xiao Lin have already torn open the farsighted scroll and acted on the scroll. Next, these brown orcs were more clear, and even the breath exhaling from their nostrils could be seen clearly.
Boom!
They set up a large number of traps on the road leading to the foot of the mountain. The wolf cavalry brigade without the slightest tendency to slow down first detonated the flame traps. These traps made of flammable materials will cause instantaneous flames of extremely high temperature when triggered. . Even the thick skin of an orc can't stop the direct burning of spell flames, and the wolf ride itself is also a creature that fears flames.
The flames were everywhere, and the wolf cavalry formation immediately became chaotic. The wolf cavalry has also become irritable, but the orc troops are also well-trained. If you stop rashly at this time, it will only involve the infantry behind. Not only did the forward wolf cavalry not stop, but gradually charge up.
The height of the orcs' fighting spirit surprised everyone slightly. Although those cavalry are wearing armor, they lack magical defense, they can't resist the flame erosion, especially the heavier the armor, when it is burned by the instant high temperature, it will be red and hot, and it will live on the body, especially in the farsighted scroll. Xiao Lin and the others couldn't help feeling a hairy feeling all over their bodies when they looked at the steaming smoke. In their eyes, it seemed that they even felt very painful~ IndoMTL.com~ But even so, the orcs still howled. They shouted and did not flinch, their pupils were bloodshot, waving their weapons, and rushing towards the fortress madly regardless of the flames and burns on their bodies.
But the traps they set up are much more than these. Behind the flame trap are the thorn traps. Those barbs coated with venom gave the most deadly blow to the orc wolf cavalry who were stimulated by serious injuries and hemorrhagic.
These venoms were turned out from the fortress warehouse. They actually don’t know how strong the poison is. Now it seems that the effect is really good. The wolf riders who were barbed into the soles of their feet turned forward and backward, constantly twitching on the ground. He curled up, foaming at the corners of his mouth in the blink of an eye, and no more breath.
The orcs who were overthrown were not much resistant to poison. They didn't support it for too long, and they died.
The momentum of more than four hundred wolf cavalry charges at the same time is actually very strong. Many people in the fort have only watched the cavalry charge on TV dramas in their entire lives, and suddenly faced this kind of brown wind sweeping like mountains and seas. When they came, even if they were guarding the city, many people couldn't help showing timidity.
In less than ten minutes, the four hundred wolf cavalry have been wiped out, and there are only a few that can stand on the horse. Many people have clapped their hands and cheered. These days, they have worked so hard to lay traps every day. Building the defensive tower, now the hard work has finally paid off, and I feel very proud.
"I really thought we were bullies!"
"Even if it is an orc, it is not a disadvantage!"
"Hahaha, I feel that maybe we can really guard it, maybe!"
……
The morale of the orcs who used the trap to insult the orcs is also refreshed. The mood swings of these rookies on the battlefield are still very serious. ) Book friends hurry up and pay attention!
