Chapter 159: First Battle: The Air Force's Loss
"Here you come!!"
On the Morendo Plain, the chiefs of several tribes were in a row at this time, looking at the information from their own flying units in the sky. On the third day after receiving the news of the human army's departure, the army of the Gangwu Empire finally arrived at the decisive battle site.
In the air, bat knights surrounded the sky, with agile trolls sitting on it. The trolls were holding incendiary bombs refined by their own wizards, intending to give the newly arrived human army a warning and slash the enemy's aura.
These giant gambits were air forces borrowed from the north by the Wind Tribe. The environment of the southern grasslands was not enough to cultivate huge bats that could ride orcs.
And these giant bats are surrounded by black wind snakes!
Wind snakes are unique to the south, snakes with flesh-winged wings and alien species, and are the only air force unit in the south. Although they are weak, they have a great advantage in numbers. Moreover, these wind snakes carry extremely strong neurotoxins on their teeth. Even if they are surrounded by powerful creatures, they will eventually become the end of eating by mouth.
However, since its size is not enough to carry orc units, it does not have much effect on the ground. This is also the reason why Hotel of the Breeze Tribe spent a significant price to introduce the northern giant bats.
This air force combination made Kagar of the Thunder Tribe secretly feel a little afraid. He only realized that the Jifeng Tribe had such a group of air forces. He secretly wondered whether he would lie north and buy some such species to come over. Otherwise, he would suffer a lot from facing Jifeng Tribe in the future.
Just as I was thinking, suddenly there were terrifying screams from the sky. If the hissings of the wind snakes were creepy, the sudden loud screams of the birds of prey were shocking from the heart.
Just listening to this sound, you can tell that the creatures coming are definitely the upper class of the carnivorous creature chain.
Immediately, the few people looked up and saw a sparse black spot in the sky. Several chiefs with excellent eyesight saw clearly in an instant that the most elite air force knight of the human race: the griffin army!
The scattered griffin knights, facing the dense group of wind snakes as dense as dark clouds, were not afraid, and rushed into the group of snakes with a hurricane.
Such unparalleled courage shocked the orcs below.
"Hmph, stupid!" Kagar sneered. Even the two-headed dragons in the north who broke into the group of wind snakes in such a tricky way would definitely end up being bitten into bones. You should know that the toxins of the wind snake are not simple. Even if the mighty tauren is bitten by the wind snake, his muscles will shrink after a few minutes and even die in shock immediately. The griffin does look extremely powerful, but can withstand the siege of hundreds of wind snakes?
As long as more than ten snakes bit you, no matter how powerful you are, you will be melted into water by toxins.
But the next second Kagar's sneer stiffened.
The huge and powerful griffin was like a tiger entering the flock of sheep. The moment it rushed into the group of snakes, a bloody rain was stirred up. Many wind snakes were cut into two halves under its dive, falling down like snowflakes!
Suddenly, the sky was filled with dazzling scarlet blood mist, and the strong smell of blood suddenly filled the entire space!
"What's the situation?" Several orc royal tribes around him were stunned. After these griffins swept into the group of snakes, they split a large group of snakes by just rushing. This must not be the warriors sitting on them with swords, right? Is the efficiency of strangulation too exaggerated?
"It's that feather." Hotel narrowed his eyes slightly and almost immediately judged the situation.
When he was in the north, he had no chance to see the griffin knight that countless tribes in the north feared him. When he saw him today, he realized why so many tribes in the north were so afraid of this thing.
The feathers of these griffons can be as hard as blades and can be controlled to stand up. With this terrifying flight speed, if you hit them, let alone these soft wind snakes, even the strong-muscular double-headed dragons will be torn apart.
Moreover, because the feathers are too hard and the riding knight is also armed to the teeth, even if these wind snakes siege up, it is impossible for them to bite the thing. The knights sitting on them do not need to fight at all, just control the direction of the flight of the griffin.
Looking at the bloody rain in the sky, Hotel thought of another nickname of these griffins in the north: Dragon Knight!
He murmured with a gloomy face: "It's really worthy of its reputation!"
Even Old Marn's face was not that good-looking, and he murmured: "How did humans tame such a terrible creature?"
"Call the Air Force to retreat!" Hortel said decisively.
"What?" Kagal immediately said angrily: "Air Force retreat? Are you afraid of the losses of your bats? Once the Air Force retreats, we will completely lose the vision of human beings. Wouldn't the raid plan you proposed before be scrapped?"
Before, Hotel proposed that there was still a chance of raid when the human army entered the plain from the Imperial Avenue, which was to launch a raid after the human army came down from the Imperial Avenue!
This will allow the army in the second half of the tribe to be blocked in the avenue. The army in front is unlikely to retreat due to the large number of people in the rear, so they can only be slaughtered!
But this plan must have a broad vision and the plain view is wide. They cannot be ambushed. They can only borrow the mobility of the cavalry and find the right time to raid directly. This requires the cavalry of the beast tribe to accurately grasp the opportunity to rush forward, otherwise you will be funny before you even get off!
Without vision, what's going on in front of the human race? What if a bunch of dragon-shocking crossbows are facing you and you can't rush into the avenue, wouldn't you be shot in vain?
And not only that, if you withdraw from the Air Force and lose your vision, others will fully grasp your vision. The opponents of the Beast Clan will be clear about how the troops are sent to form a formation, but they can only fight passively.
It is extremely disadvantageous. The role of air supremacy is even in this kind of cold weapon battle!
But facing Kagar's angry questioning, Hotel said quietly: "What's the solution? The Air Force's strength is not as strong as others, so you can only recognize it? Do you have to wait until the wind snake above dies to be cleaned up before you are willing?"
"You" Kagar was immediately angry, but he couldn't say anything to refute. Obviously, when retreating to the wind snakes, these wind snakes can still have a certain combat effectiveness when they fly low at a distance. If they are still stubborn and let them fight with the griffins at high altitude, the people on their side can only watch them slaughtered!
Thinking of this, Kagar finally turned his head away, and Old Mahon sighed slightly: "Then let them retreat!"
Hotel nodded to Mengduo next to him. Mengduo picked up a huge horn, and a loud horn sound suddenly rang through the sky. Countless wind snakes turned their heads and retreated towards the beast tribe when they heard this sound.
The retreat was so dark that only hundreds of griffons hovering in the air were left. The momentum of the entire beast clan was immediately hit.
Of course, these griffon knights were not proud to dive and chase. They knew that once they flew to the beast clan firepower point that could cover their position, they would be really a beating. Griffons are now extremely expensive, and the commander dared not waver casually. They circled for a while. After seeing the formation of the beast clan clearly, under the commander's instructions, most of the griffons returned to the rear to accumulate energy, leaving only a few to continue observing the movements of the beast clan.
At this point, the first shot of the Orcs War, the human race won an overwhelming victory and completely mastered the air supremacy!
A hint of uneasiness flashed through the Beast Clan and others who failed at the beginning.
Rox and others who received the news from afar were rarely relieved. The previous failure of the scouts made them extremely passive. Now they couldn't figure out how many beast tribes were ambushed on the mountains on both sides of the Empire Avenue.
However, the clear vision ahead made them at least know that the southern tribes did not have any means to target the griffin knights.
It wouldn't be necessary for them to fight in a dark way.
"This formation" Arthur next to Rox looked at the sketch Rox drawn after the griffin was wrong and frowned and said, "It's so amazing!"
"Yes," Rox sighed slightly. Although he mastered the opponent's formation, the opponent seemed to be prepared for it. The formation was upright and it was difficult to target it.
Chapter completed!
