Heart of Empire Chapter 153: Fatal hit

At around three o'clock in the afternoon on January 15th, Dane finally blocked the front of the orc transport team with more than 500 soldiers.

After looking at the orcs who had already made defensive preparations, he breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, these guys didn't run away.

During the pursuit, Dane has been paying attention to the news sent back by the two sword falcon knights and the ranger of Patience sent in advance in turn. He is very worried that this orc transport team will find themselves After being targeted, they will choose to run away. If this kind of thing really happens, then the situation will be worse.

If the orc's transport team left those supplies and started to flee, Dane might not be able to lead people to catch up. The soldiers under him are all infantry. Although the ranger and sword dancer moved faster, it was impossible for him to catch up with the ranger and sword dancer who had a total number of only a hundred or so. In that case, the troops will not have an advantage, and the arms are single. If you fight against those orcs, although you can still fight, the loss will be relatively large. But if you want to chase, no matter if it's other miscellaneous mercenaries or Dread fighters, the speed of movement is average. Those orcs fled desperately, and it's hard to chase them with two legs.

Fortunately, these stunned orcs seem to have no plans to escape. Seeing them put up a defensive formation in full battle, and even let the orc laborers pick up stone hammers and wooden sticks as weapons, when they were ready to fight, Dane felt that the battle was stable.

Those orcs may think that there are 200 people on their own side and only 500 people on the other side, so what can they not beat? no

It's not surprising that they have such an idea. The fighting power of the orc army is stronger than that of the human army. This is due to racial advantages. The individual strength of orc soldiers is indeed much stronger than that of human soldiers in the same situation. Perhaps, in large-scale legion battles, the influence of soldiers' individual combat power on the battle situation will be weakened, and it may be replaced by higher discipline and tactics, but in battles with hundreds of people, individual combat power The strength advantage will still play a big role.

But is the army in Dane's hand an ordinary human army?

More than two hundred miscellaneous mercenaries may not be strong in combat; the hundred or so fear ghost fighters are already a good force, at least not worse than the same number of orcs on the opposite side. The most elite are sixty elite rangers and more than sixty sword dancers. This is the most terrifying sharp blade in Dane's hands.

Without hesitation, Dane's army only rested for ten minutes at a distance of five or six hundred meters from the orcs, and then began to attack according to the predetermined plan.

On the way here, he had already thought about how to fight this battle. An ambush is of course impossible. On the endless eastern wasteland, unless there are certain terrains, an ambush is a joke—hundreds of people, if the wind and sand are a little smaller, they can be seen from a distance of one or two kilometers away. What is there? Good ambush? Face-to-face confrontation is the only rule of war on the wasteland!

The female half-orc berserk warrior Maca, who was temporarily appointed as the leader, became the vanguard. At Dane's order, she began to lead more than two hundred and fifty, a miscellaneous mercenary who was dissatisfied with the brigade, and began to press forward.

The morale of the miscellaneous mercenaries is not bad, it is unrealistic to expect them to fight tough battles, their fighting will is not so strong. However, the difference in the strength of the two sides is relatively large now, and these mercenaries will still fight with their hearts.

After the phalanx of miscellaneous mercenaries began to advance, the ranger troops led by Patience followed closely behind. These elves are the ones to launch the first round of head-on blows. Following behind were the fearsome warriors led by Delin. At the end was the sword dancer unit led by Dane himself.

The orc team with their backs on the pack lizard and the baggage cart saw Dane's troops gradually approaching, and there was some restlessness in the team. Almost every orc yelled at the humans who were gradually approaching. If anyone could understand the orc language, they would know that these orcs were insulting them before the battle, and it was a way to boost morale.

After hearing the voices of the orcs, the human soldiers who rushed to the front also started to shout. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. Ranged power on both sides.

Of course, the orcs also had archers. When the two hundred or so miscellaneous mercenaries leading the battle approached a hundred meters away, more than thirty arrows shot at them. At this distance, the accuracy and power of the arrows were not very good, but two mercenaries were still shot to death on the spot, and four or five others were injured.

With such a loss in the face to face, it can be seen that the orc shooter is not as good as imagined. But single-digit casualties are not enough to cause the human army to collapse. Maca, who was in the lead, let out a roar, and took the lead, changing from a brisk walk to a charge. And the mercenaries who followed her also began to charge~IndoMTL.com~ With a distance of 100 meters, it was almost time to charge. At the fastest speed, rushing through the enemy's shooting range and entering the melee is the kingly way.

At the same time, the elf rangers led by Patience, who followed up, also entered the best range.

"Fire the arrow!" General Ranger gave the order, and first shot the arrow he held in his hand. The arrows that rolled up the storm, and after rushing into the enemy's formation, penetrated three or four orc warriors in an instant. These three or four unlucky guys who were targeted by Patience, without exception, all had powerful chests. The arrows were shattered.

Following her arrows was the attack of sixty rangers. The archers in the orc army are not weak, but the elf rangers are obviously a few levels stronger. After one round of shooting, at least twenty orc warriors directly lost their combat effectiveness.

The ratio of casualties they brought was much higher than that of orc archers!

After two rounds of shooting each other, the orcs couldn't bear the rain of arrows from the ranger troops. However, the next thing they have to face is the impact of the mercenary team that has rushed forward!

In hand-to-hand combat, the orcs, who had already lost a lot in the arrow rain, could barely withstand these miscellaneous mercenaries. However, their resistance did not last long. When the horror warriors led by Delin also pressed up, there were less than 150 orc warriors who survived, and they could no longer hold on. There are signs of a breakdown.

Next, Dane and Patience personally led the ranger and sword dancer who pulled out the elf scimitar, and gave them a fatal blow~IndoMTL.com~ The fastest and hottest serial works are all on ~IndoMTL.com~ Mobile phone users please go to read.
