Chapter 255: Genocide (2)

Views:

Elvis, the leader of the Fengpeng clan, stood humbly in front of Lei. A few hundred meters behind him was Fengpeng's camp. The level of orcs building cities was far inferior to that of humans, and it was also very poor on the North Talon Prairie. It was difficult to collect stones to build a high stone wall, so the structure of the Fengpeng clan's camp was still mainly made of wood, and the entire camp was surrounded by a hardwood fence as high as one person.

Lei looked at Elvis and asked coldly: "Master Patriarch, the Beast King's order has been issued for more than a month, why haven't you implemented it yet?"

Elvis quickly replied: "Dear Legion Commander, I have sent my son to lead 30,000 soldiers to the Beast Blood Castle for the Beast King's dispatch."

Lei snorted and continued to ask: "Then why did I hear that you still left two thousand teenagers in the camp?"

Elvis was shocked when he heard this and thought: "Fortunately, I asked them to set off overnight. They should be hundreds of miles away by now. Did Ray hear something?"

Seeing Elvis' silence, Lei's tone immediately turned gloomy: "What, is this true?"

"What an injustice! Lord Commander of the Legion!" Elvis is indeed a treacherous man. His face did not change when he heard this, but he had already begun to defend himself: "There are absolutely no young people in our clan. If you don't believe it, you can investigate in detail. "

"Huh, do you think I don't dare?" A look of disdain appeared on Lei's face. He thought for a while and continued with a smug look: "But I won't be so stupid as to go from tent to tent. Go and turn it over. Elvis, let your tribe come out and stand over there, and then find the tallest part and measure it and you will understand."

Elvis hesitated for a moment after hearing these words. He made a secret calculation in his mind. He felt that now that all the elite members of the clan were gone, only the elderly, children and women were left. If they contradicted Lei, they would suffer a loss on the spot. They would not be able to find anything anyway. It's better to deal with it first by pretending to be obedient. This time the Beast King decided to go on an expedition to the Thunder God Fortress. It was generally impossible for the archers of the Fengpeng clan to attack the fortress. The losses would not be too heavy, and he had a backup plan. When the Barbarian Bear lost his troops, it would be an opportunity for Fengpeng to rise.

These thoughts are quite long, but they only went through Elvis's mind for a brief moment. After weighing the situation, Elvis turned around and issued an order, asking the tribesmen to slowly come out and stand in a densely packed large open space outside the camp.

The camp suddenly became lively. The elderly, children, and women came out one by one under the command of the clan leader. After a long time, all the remaining clan members of the Fengpeng clan came out and stood in a mess. .

On the other hand, the Mammoth Legion, even if the Fengpeng clan was in chaos, it did not affect them at all, and they were still quiet. Without the order of Legion Commander Lei, a total of 25,000 people stood upright, like lifeless stone statues.

Elvis looked at his people and then at the warriors of the Mammoth Legion. He was very envious. With such discipline, it was no wonder that the Mammoth Legion was so famous. He made up his mind that when this expedition was over, he would be the same. To train such a team.

After finally waiting for all the orcs in the camp to come out, Lei waved his hand expressionlessly, and an orc warrior holding a giant ax jumped out of each chariot behind him. Each mammoth chariot is driven by one person, two shooters attack from a distance, and two giant ax warriors are responsible for protecting the sides of the chariot. Therefore, there are 25,000 people in the five thousand chariots, all of whom are warriors of the Barbarian Bear clan.

"Three thousand people entered the camp to check if anyone was hiding and couldn't escape. The rest went to check the people outside and brought out the taller ones to compare." At this point, Lei pointed at the spiked chariot wheels under his feet: "The Beast King has ordered that if any clan hides a man taller than a wheel, he will be punished as a treason!"

"Honor your order!" 5,000 orc giant ax warriors agreed in unison. Under Lei's order, they began to separate. The person responsible for searching the camp immediately ran all the way into the village gate, while the other group quickly began to check the Fengpeng tribe standing outside. From time to time, they brought out slightly taller and stronger orcs and took them to another place. In one direction, they were slowly comparing their heights beside the wheels of a chariot.

The patriarch was not worried that Lei would find men with prohibited heights among them. After all, he had made preparations in advance. However, the efficiency of Lei's soldiers was completely inconsistent with the military appearance they had shown before. This made Elvi Si was very surprised.

The soldiers searching the camp were wandering near the entrance of the village with only giant axes. The soldiers checking the height pulled out seven or eight thousand people, but they only used one chariot for comparison. At this rate, I'm afraid it won't be finished even if I wait another three days and three nights.

Seeing that it was already past noon, Elvis saw that most of his tribe were hungry and thirsty, and the people standing there were a little excited. If it were not for the fear of the Mammoth Legion, he would simply rely on the majesty of his tribe leader. Unable to suppress it, it dispersed long ago.

"Can't we just keep standing like this?" Elvis secretly thought: "When will this be over? Could it be..." An ominous thought floated in Elvis's mind, but he immediately put it away. Putting it all to the back of his mind, he simply didn't believe that the Beast King would do this.

Lei was still standing motionless on the carriage of the Mammoth Chariot. Seeing that his men had taken control of the Fengpeng clan, he knew that the time was almost up to move on to the next step in the plan of the Beast King and Prophet Evan.

All orcs are soldiers, even if they are old, weak, sick and disabled, if they hold on to the camp, they can hold on for several days. Once this matter spreads, it will be difficult to control the actions of other clans. If it causes unnecessary trouble, it will definitely affect this expedition. Besides, even if they stormed down, their own losses would be too great. Lei Ke had always been looking forward to a battle with the Holy Knight, and he was not willing to lose his troops before then anyway.

Now, under the plan of the prophet Evan, Ray took advantage of Elvis's luck, pressing forward step by step without touching his bottom line, making him irresistible, and finally completely controlled the situation: three thousand giant ax warriors firmly Guard the gate of the village to prevent the Fengpeng clan outside from retaking the camp and defend the camp; the two thousand giant ax warriors not only surrounded the more powerful men of the Fengpeng clan, but also checked other clansmen to confirm that they Basically no weapons.

It is now past noon, and the Mammoth Legion is facing a group of enemies with no weapons, old, weak, sick, hungry, and no danger to defend on the open grassland. If they cannot win completely, Lei Ye will not be a subordinate of the Beast King. The most powerful legion commander, what else can the Mammoth Legion talk about competing with the Holy Knight

"Elvis, is there someone you don't know you know?" Ray said to Elvis calmly with a controlling smile on his face.

Before Elvis could react, Lei waved his hand behind him, and a young orc who was tied tightly and had his mouth stuffed with linen was thrown in front of the clan leader. Elvis was shocked because this young orc was his second son.

Elvis took a chance and took out the linen from his son Fred's mouth with trembling hands. The latter immediately burst into tears: "Father, ten thousand people were killed by them!"

Elvis's heart began to sink, and the thoughts that had just been forgotten immediately came to mind. After corresponding one by one, the various unreasonable behaviors of Ray's men became very clear.

Elvis made a prompt decision. He immediately knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy loudly at Lei: "Legion Commander, I am wrong in this matter. Please give me a chance to give the Fengpeng clan a chance. From now on, Fengpeng will The clan will be the humblest slaves and the most loyal warriors of the Barbarian Bear clan!”

There was a trace of contempt on the corner of Lei's mouth. He jumped off the chariot, walked up to the patriarch in a few steps, and whispered to Elvis at his feet: "Elvis, this sounds good, but why not me, the wild bear?" Why does the clan use Fengpeng's Kerkosi to come to the pasture to train its own warriors? Now there is just one missing reason!"

After saying this, Ray grabbed Fred, who was lying next to Elvis, and pushed him toward the chariot with force on his arms.

With a "poof" sound, Fred's head hit the side of the Mammoth Chariot, and a spike as high as the wheel popped out from his nose. Fred's hands and feet were trapped, making it impossible to struggle. His whole body twitched a few times, and his body hung limply. Blood kept pouring out from Fred's head, flowing down his body, and soon stained a large area of ground under his feet, while Fred's feet were dragged on the ground.

"No!" Seeing his son die in front of him, Elvis lost all strength and collapsed to the ground.

"The Beast King has an order. Any young and strong man who is taller than the wheels of a mammoth chariot and refuses to join the orc jihad will be executed as a collaborator!" Lei pointed at Fred's body hanging on the mammoth chariot and shouted loudly that the beast The emperor's order.

Fred's head exceeded the upper part of the wheel, while his feet were dragging on the ground, which completely showed that his height exceeded the height of the wheel.

"Elvis, you don't have to be sad. Your people will be with you soon."

"Aren't you afraid that my eldest son Terrence will know? He has 30,000 men..."

Before he finished speaking, a human head was thrown in front of Elvis. It belonged to the patriarch's eldest son, Terrence.

Lei's eyes showed blood red: "He already took the first step five days ago."

"Impossible! Thirty thousand elites..."

"You may think they are elite, but our Mammoth Legion has almost no casualties!"

Elvis caressed his son Terrence's head and shed tears of regret. He finally understood that from the beginning, the Beast King was already prepared to kill his opponent. It was ridiculous that he always thought he could play with his opponent. , but they don’t know that everything they do is calculated by others. The strength of the Mammoth Legion far exceeded the previous estimates, and the 30,000 warriors of the Fengpeng Clan did not cause any damage to it.

Lei turned around and walked onto the chariot. Five days ago, the 30,000 Fengpeng warriors were completely annihilated. In fact, they mainly relied on a drug formula provided by the Beast King's human allies. All the orc armies participating in the battle were provided by the Barbarian Bear Clan. , it’s so easy to do something with food. Those 30,000 soldiers ate food mixed with this medicine, and most of them became numb and weak and lost their fighting ability.

It would be strange if the 10,000 giant ax warriors who were equipped with bronze mail armor and were good at close combat could not completely defeat most of the archers who had lost their combat effectiveness in the night raid, and the remaining small number of archers who were not good at close combat.

Lei, who originally believed in "fighting with force", achieved brilliant results under Evan's strategy. Although his appearance was as usual, his heart was also very shocked. He did not expect that he could defeat his opponent with zero casualties. As for the massacre of the Fengpeng clan, which resulted in the Orc Expeditionary Army losing 30,000 shooters, it did not affect the overall situation. The several siege weapon blueprints provided by the Beast King's human ally were enough to make up for it.

Looking at the Fengpeng tribe who started to riot, Lei issued an order: "Exterminate the tribe!"

The mammoth chariot drove slowly, and a bloody killing began.
