Heart of Empire Chapter 164: The danger of the pure sword

The onslaught of orcs is coming soon.

Right now, the team that Alexandrina can really use to fight those orcs is only 300 pure swordsmen in white robes.

It has to be said that, inherited from her father's training method, the combat effectiveness of this troop is guaranteed. The two-handed swordsmen are not considered heavy infantry, and they only wear inlaid leather armor, and their protection is not very good. However, in the case of the tiger and tiger wielding a big sword with both hands, in a head-on confrontation with the orc warriors who came on the attack, they did not lose the wind at all.

But this is only temporary.

There are more orcs and more complete arms. In the absence of heavy infantry to resist the charge of the orc army, the battle axes and hammers of the orc warriors are still very threatening. This kind of reckless fight, if you lose, you will be defeated, and most of the wins will be just a miserable victory.

With support in the rear, Delina is of course unwilling to accept such a result.

Her choice is also very smart, she shrinks the team as much as possible, and strictly orders the soldiers under her not to take the initiative to chase out. And she herself, together with Caroline, stood on the front line of the battle. The long swords in the hands of the two are flying up and down. A seventh-level swordsman and a ninth-level swordsman are still very powerful in battle. When facing the two orcs, most of them would think that women are easy to deal with at first, but after facing them, most of them would have their heads chopped off by their two-handed swords within one or two strokes.

Brown-skinned and green-skinned orcs, carrying heavy weapons, fought fiercely with the pure swordsmen, shouting all over the sky, blood was constantly being thrown out, the tomahawk smashed the head, and the warhammer smashed the chest, The pure swordsmen suffered tragic casualties, and not to be outdone, they also beheaded the orcs one by one with their long swords.

From the very beginning, the fierce battle gradually developed towards the most tragic direction.

The eyes of the orc army are not blind, of course they can see, not far away, another human army led by Dane has appeared in the field of vision, and I am afraid that it will not be long before they will join into the battle. However, now they have no choice but to quickly defeat the human army in front of them, they may still have the strength to fight again, even if they choose to retreat and escape, they will be much calmer.

But if they failed to defeat the Pure Sword Mercenary Group and let Dane lead the troops to kill them, then failure would be inevitable.

An orc commander riding on a war wolf is not stupid. He watched Pure Sword's crazy resistance and Dane's troops approaching step by step. He was determined to put the last and strongest force in his hands into the battle: seventy wolf cavalry!

On the frontal battlefield, the orc infantry and the pure swordsman were inextricably fighting. Of course, he would not be stupid and directly put the wolf cavalry in his hand into the front. It was a waste of the wolf cavalry's excellent maneuverability.

He instigated the war wolf under his crotch, uttered a war horn, and led the wolf cavalry under him to roar and start to move towards the flanks of the battle formation. Not only that, he also separated a small team, about a dozen wolf cavalry, and rushed towards Irons who was trying to regroup.

The movement of the orc wolf cavalry did not arouse the alertness of the pure sword mercenary group.

In fact, if Delina was still in command, she would definitely be able to see the intention of the orc wolf cavalry—to use a small group of wolf cavalry to drive away the scattered mercenaries and prevent Irons from reorganizing Even if the army cannot stop it, at least it can delay the process to a large extent. The remaining main force of the wolf cavalry, led by the orc commander himself, went around to the rear of the pure sword mercenary group and launched a fatal attack.

There is no doubt that if the actions of the wolf cavalry are successful, it will definitely deal a fatal blow to the pure sword mercenary group. Don't say that Delina, who is facing the orc blade on the front line, can't notice it, even if she notices it, what can she do? The pure swordsmen who fought inextricably with the orc infantry from the front could hardly defend against the impact of the wolf cavalry from the rear in the fierce battle.

Now, the only thing that can be counted on is that Irons can sort out a troop in a short time, and then rush to support and defend the rear camp of the Pure Sword Mercenary Group. The number of this army does not necessarily need to be very large, there are dozens of people, forming a careful formation, blocking it for a while, and temporarily alleviating the impact of the wolf cavalry.

After all, Dane's large army is right behind and is about to arrive. As long as they hold on for a while, it will be considered a victory.

But Irons failed to make the right choice at this time. His progress in reorganizing the rout was not very good. Under the impact and drive of a small group of wolf cavalry, the troops that could have been sorted out immediately were once again scattered due to being driven away.

There are only a dozen or so wolf cavalry, but they are like wolf dogs driving sheep ~IndoMTL.com~ easily driving the rout soldiers around.

In fact, as long as Irons takes the lead and brings some soldiers around him, it is enough to wipe out the wolf cavalry who came to make trouble. He himself has the strength of a tenth-level shield knight, and with a few mercenaries, how could he not be able to defeat a mere squad of wolf cavalry?

But no one knows what he thinks, maybe because he didn't dare, he didn't make a decisive choice. As a result, the rout was still a rout, and it was difficult to carry out the reorganization, let alone fill in the danger on the rear front of the Pure Sword Mercenary Regiment.

Now, it seems that no one can save Delina's pure sword mercenary group. The team of wolf cavalry is about to bite their buttocks. Once these wolf cavalry really charge up from the side and rear, the swordsmen with their backs to the cavalry, under the scimitar of the orc wolf cavalry, will definitely be the same. A lamb waiting to be slaughtered is generally powerless to resist.

At the same time, after the rear was hit by a fatal impact, the chain reaction would cause the entire formation of pure swords to collapse. in the bottom of the abyss.

At the critical moment, a rain of arrows and the flash of arcane magic saved the Pure Sword Mercenary Group.

The ones who showed their power were of course the two teams belonging to Dane who had caught up first - the ranger troop and a small team of mages!

The rangers and mages who caught up before Dane's large army used arrows and spells to reverse the situation that pure swords must lose!
