At dawn, the fortress in the distance was still lit with lights.

The orcs in the city must have learned the news about the massive counterattack by the human troops at this moment. After all, with such a huge army marching and the distance being only two days away, the news could not be hidden.

The orcs in the city should have sharpened their blades and are preparing for battle.

A smile appeared at the corner of Du Wei's mouth.

Behind him, the gryphon knights who had rested all night were already full of energy. In the dawn wind, the gryphons stood up one by one, facing the morning wind, spreading their wings, as if they also felt the feeling before the battle.

of tension.

"Prepare to attack!" Du Wei issued the order in a low voice, and then turned to look at the lights of the orcs in the city.

Well, didn't they sleep all night? Very good, since you don't want to sleep, let me send you to a long sleep!

When it was just getting dark, the Chinese army came from the south to take charge of the frontal attack. After a night of repairs, they arrived at the south of the fortress at dawn.

The reaction of the criminals in the city was very quick. On the southern city wall, looking at the horizon from a distance, the human army appeared like a swarm of ants, with swords and guns like a forest, and shields like a wall, and they drove over with murderous intent. Those orcs showed no sign at all.

They were not afraid at all, but instead they looked up to the sky and howled excitedly. Many orcs even beat their chests hard and let out ferocious roars.

Humanity!

Humanity!

These cowardly humans, they actually gave up their solid city walls and came to attack us? Huh! If they hide in the city walls, it may still be difficult, but...field battles? Haha! Since the war, human beings have been on the field battles.

I have never gained an advantage!!

The leader of the orc army quickly issued an order to go out of the city to fight. The order was spread to the ears of every orc: Go forward! Kill all those humans! Kill them all!!

On the city wall, the orcs moved several huge leather drums. Amidst the buzzing of the drums, the southern city gate opened wide. Under the early morning light, the orc warriors wore those seemingly crude, but actually

The extremely strong iron armor seemed like streams of black iron rushing out from the city gate.

Soon, phalanxes were lined up under the city. On the city wall, the orc leader let out a loud roar. The orc warriors in the phalanx immediately raised their long swords. The large blades flashed in the morning light.

There was a cold light in it, and then the orc warriors roared in unison, with a shocking rhythm. Under this rhythm, the orc phalanx began to move forward slowly!

In the distance, among the human camp, Alor rode his horse quickly past the front of his queue. He carefully observed the slowly approaching orc phalanx in the distance and made rapid calculations in his mind.

"Draw your sword!!!"

The officer at the front of the queue let out a majestic roar. The soldiers wearing thick heavy infantry armor showed off their weapons. Yalor galloped on his horse, and the spear in his hand quickly collided with the swords of the soldiers in the front row.

, making a series of tinkling sounds.

"Erect shield!!"

The military commander's loud orders spread throughout the battlefield. The soldiers in the first few rows of the human infantry phalanx were all carefully selected men with the strongest stature and the most courage.

The iron shields were erected in front of him. These shields were nearly two meters tall. They were usually disassembled into two pieces for transportation when marching.

Pieces of shields were firmly inserted into the soil. The two-meter-tall shields formed a steel wall under the dense arrangement of the front row warriors!

The soldiers were trembling with excitement. Everyone's face was high and they were nervously watching the orc phalanx approaching from a distance.

"Hahahahahaha..."

The leader of the orc army on the city wall saw this scene. He couldn't help laughing contemptuously: "These cowardly humans! It's obviously a field battle, but they actually put up their shields first and let go! Haha! Look at their shields, they are like city walls.

...These humans don’t know how to fight without the city wall!! Crush them! Even a real city wall can’t stop our warriors! Let alone this small shield!!”

Beside him, an orc immediately blew a horn. The low sound of the horn quickly spread through the wilderness with the morning wind. The sound sounded desolate, but it contained a faint excitement that made people's hearts throb.

!!

"Well, has the war started yet?"

In the distance, I listened to the faint sound of horns coming from the south. Luoxue stood on the north bank of the river, looking at the fortress on the south bank. It seemed to be smiling, but the smile was a little bitter and complicated...

"The war has begun." Behind the hillside in the west of the fortress city, Du Wei heard the horn on the battlefield. He was also smiling, but this smile had a hint of coldness!

The sound of the horn turned into a series of reminders. After the horn sounded, the orc warriors immediately accelerated their pace. The huge steel phalanx suddenly accelerated towards the human camp.

In the phalanx, the orc officer was still using his thick roar to remind his soldiers that while speeding up, they should keep the phalanx intact and keep the shields dense. According to the experience of fighting with humans, humans are very good at using bows and arrows!

However, when the target was only 500 meters away from the human front line, the expected human bows and arrows did not come. Have these humans changed their fighting habits? Humph...

Yalor stood at the front of the team, looking at the orc steel phalanx in the distance with a sullen face. He sighed in his heart: As expected, as the Duke said, there is no need to use bows and arrows at all. In fact, in this battle, under Du Wei's

Under the order, only a small number of archers were brought into the army. Because looking at the phalanx of the orcs, the front, rear, left, right and top of the head were blocked by shields, like an iron turtle. It was difficult for bows and arrows to hit them.

Effective killing.

Yalor raised his right hand, and soon the military commander conveyed the order to the rear.

Behind the human camp, the ballista carts dragged by horse-drawn carriages had been set up. After the observer saw the order, he immediately roared: "Thirty-five degree angle! Shoot upward!!"

boom!

There was a sound of nooses and the roar of crossbows. In the sky, the first wave of a hundred and ten crossbow arrows pierced the sky. They flew over the heads of the human army camp and landed hard on the advancing orc phalanx.

middle!

The powerful force of the noose caused the ballistae to easily pierce the shield held by the orc warriors. One by one, half of the ballistae landed on the orcs' heads. Suddenly, there was a trace of chaos in the orcs' phalanx, and the shields were easily destroyed.

Pierce the flesh and blood of the orc warriors hiding inside. Although they are strong, they cannot resist this murderous weapon made by humans. Often, after a crossbow arrow penetrates the shield, it can also pierce two or three orc warriors inside.

!

One hundred and ten ballistae fired in volley, under the constant orders of the observers: Shoot upward at an angle of 35 degrees! Shoot upward at an angle of 45 degrees! Shoot upward at an angle of 60 degrees!!

After several rounds of volleys, not counting the injured, at least hundreds of orc warriors were killed!

Although the ballistae was effective against the orcs' steel phalanx, after all, the ballistae was only good at penetrating power and could not cause too much damage. There was a slight confusion on the orcs' formation, and soon, the dead

The position of the orcs was pushed up by the orcs in the back row, and the gap in the square formation was blocked again with shields! Moreover, the orcs moved faster and pushed forward with all their strength.

Based on past experience in fighting humans, although the human's ballistae is scary, its lethality cannot really scare the orcs. Moreover, as long as the human array is quickly approached, the opponent's ballistae will be useless!

"Huh, it's the same old thing again." The orc leader on the city wall sneered. Luoxue did not intervene in today's war, but left it to the orcs themselves to command. The orcs, who had never been convinced by the elves' command, decided to rely on themselves to do well.

Let's fight a victorious battle and let those elves with higher eyes take a closer look: without you elves, we orcs are still invincible!

The leader of the orcs laughed wildly. He pushed the drummer beside him away and beat the war drum with all his strength. The thumping sound of the drum was exactly the order for the final charge of the orc army!

Hearing the sound of drums, on the battlefield, the orc phalanx was already only a hundred meters away from the front row of humans!

Finally, amid the sound of drums and in the phalanx in front, the orcs roared, dropped their heavy shields one after another, raised their swords high, and swarmed towards the human army!

The battlefield was filled with the crazy roars of the orcs, and the orcs' charge was like a tsunami wave, slamming into the human queue!!

Alor had left the front line and returned to the rear of the human heavy infantry. He saw the orcs' final charge and roared loudly, his voice rich and steady!

"Hold on!!"

"Hold on!!"

The human warriors in the front row saw those majestic orcs with long hair rushing in front of them. They even clearly heard their heavy breathing and saw their blood-red eyes and mouth full of fangs!

finally……

Bang! Bang bang bang bang...

Just like a wave hitting a rock, the front end of the orcs' wave-like charge finally hit the human shield wall hard! A large black torrent hit the front end of the human shield, as if pieces of steel spray were thrown out!

The human warriors pressed their bodies against the shields. The first few rows of humans maintained an extremely dense formation. The orcs rushed in front of the humans, slammed their bodies against the human shields, and slashed crazily with their long knives.

…

"Now! Spear out!!!"

With the roar of the military commander, several gaps in the shield wall of the human heavy armored infantry's front row were opened immediately as planned. The orcs, who had pressed their bodies against the human shield wall, were frantically

In the midst of the roaring collision, he suddenly saw in despair the sharp spears thrust out from the gaps in the human shield wall!

The distance is so close that the orcs at the front of the shield wall cannot dodge at all! This special human spear is more than two and a half meters long, and each spear has two soldiers hiding behind the shield wall.

Holding them together, the spear thrust out from the gap, immediately piercing the body of the orc squeezed in front of the shield!

Blood flowers bloomed one after another. At the front of the shield wall, a large number of orcs were caught off guard and were directly pierced by the spears pierced from the shield. Their bodies were like pieces of dead meat.

, hung on the spears, there were too many orcs charging before the human shields, and the formation was too dense under the squeeze. Almost every spear missed! Some spears even stabbed at once.

Weared three or four orcs!

The long shield wall suddenly became a death zone!

"Pull back the spear! Second round! Stab!!!"

The human officers quickly issued orders, and the human soldiers hiding behind the shield wall skillfully withdrew their spears. Blood splashed everywhere, and groups of orcs fell in front of the shield wall!

The more orcs behind didn't know what was happening, they just continued to rush forward crazily, trampling on the bodies of their dead comrades. The swarms continued to swarm towards the human shield wall.

And then, human beings repeated their old trick, and once again thrust out the spear with the smell of death from the gap in the shield wall!

"prick!!"

"prick!!!"

"prick!!!!"

Howls, screams, roars, struggling and wailing before death!
To be continued...
