At the same time, in the orc position and on the Beast Emperor’s chariot,
That orc man is the Beast Emperor Andreas. The old orc behind him is naturally the prophet Evan, and the forty-year-old man is Alexandra, the leader of the Black Hawk clan.
"Alexandra." The beast king's majestic voice hovered over the orcs' position: "Your clan will launch the first battle for the orcs to realize their dreams. No matter what the outcome of this battle is, you and your clan will be destroyed for thousands of years. All generations of orcs will always remember that for Mother Earth, for our ancestors, for our glory and dreams, Alexandra, I order you and your clan to attack, attack, and attack again against the Thunder God Fortress. "
After the Beast King said these words, he pointed the index finger of his right hand at the Thunder God Fortress. It happened to be pointed at General Keenst. At this time, General Keenst also happened to see the Beast King's move.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Beast King." Alexandra squatted down half-crouched her body and made a gesture of absolute obedience. This is the most devout obedience to those with power in the orc tribe. After Alexandra stood up , took out a horn from his arms, put it to his mouth and blew it,
"Du~wu~wu~"
After hearing this order, the undisciplined orc soldiers sat on the ground almost at the same time, took out large pieces of barbecue from their arms, and ate it in big gulps. Everyone took out a bag from their bodies. , raised their necks and drank, the air was suddenly filled with the smell of inferior alcohol. It turned out that what they drank was the blood wine brewed by the orcs themselves.
The actions of these orcs made the facial recognition of the people stationed in Thor Fortress very different. However, under the strict order of General Keenst, all human soldiers tightly held the weapons in their hands to prevent the orcs from attacking at any time.
Soon, these orcs had finished eating and drinking. At this time, the second order sounded, and the dozens of siege equipment were slowly pushed towards the Thunder God Fortress, and the tens of thousands of orcs sitting on the ground shouted , followed closely behind these siege engines,
Most of these orcs are quite old. If it weren't for this war, they might be grazing cattle and sheep on their own grasslands, watching their little grandchildren rolling on the grass, or drinking goat's milk and eating delicious food. barbecue, and now, they embark on the journey of death,
There was no fear or regret on their faces, because their patriarch, Alexandra, had promised them that anyone who died under the Thunder God Fortress would have ten talents of cattle and twenty talents for their descendants. In exchange for the sheep's pension, if they can kill a human soldier, they can also get an extra war horse and an iron weapon. For the orc civilians who experienced a severe winter last year and a large number of livestock died at home, this is a great way for their descendants to recover. The best reward for vitality, and the latter one can make your descendants become real warriors. In the orc tribe, only the bravest warriors will be respected by others.
In order for their relatives to live better, these old orcs bravely picked up the weapons they had obtained and marched towards the Thunder God Fortress without hesitation. Stimulated by the orcs' blood and wine, they did not care about what was about to happen. They don't care about their own lives in the face of dangers, and move forward with red eyes. They have only one thought now, and that is "Go forward, go forward, go forward again, climb up to the Thunder God Fortress, and kill a human being. If possible, Then kill the other one.”
General Kyenst, who was fully clothed, stood on the wall of the Thunder God Fortress, watching tens of thousands of orc troops attacking him. He calmly watched everything in front of him and issued an order to prepare for battle. On the wall of the Thunder God Fortress, humans The archer bent his bow and set up a long arrow, aiming at the densely packed orcs in the distance.
The best way to deal with intensive bow and arrow shooting is to form a square formation and raise the shield in your hand to defend. However, those orcs have no orderly formation at all and rush forward in a complete chaos. As long as these green-skinned guys enter the human shooters The range of shooting is such that any arrow fired can hit the enemy.
Seeing that the orc offensive troops had pushed into a place two kilometers outside the Thunder God Fortress, which was the distance that ordinary trebuchets could attack, General Kyenst issued the first order: "Trebuchets, 2000 meters ahead. Mi, take out the enemy's siege equipment."
Under the order of General Keenst, the ordinary trebuchets installed on the city wall began to launch. Each ordinary trebuchet was manned by ten human warriors. They had already measured the approximate range of the trebuchet attack before. After receiving the general's order, he immediately loosened the tightened winch rope, and the trebuchet ejection rod bent at an almost ninety-degree angle immediately bounced back from the horizontal position to the upright position, and this The huge elastic force also ejected the stone bullet placed at the end of the ejection rod.
Fifty 100-kilogram boulders, coupled with the huge ejection force, roared in the air and flew towards the orc attacking troops. After flying for more than ten seconds, the stone bullets hit the ground like falling meteors from the sky.
An orc soldier heard the whistling sound in the air. He looked up and saw a huge stone falling from mid-air. Before he could react, the stone had already hit him and immediately hit his upper body. In the ground, while the orc's lower body was still exposed and twitching, another stone bullet flew and hit a slowly advancing battering ram. Unfortunately, the battering ram was covered with thick wooden boards. A stone bullet hit the slanted wooden board and was immediately bounced out. It broke the thigh of an orc soldier next to it and pinned it underneath.
"Ah." The orc soldier screamed in pain. He tried to push away the stone bullet that was pressing on his thigh, but the one hundred kilogram stone bullet and the huge ejection force had already been deeply pressed into the soil. How could the orc soldiers push away? In the distance, the screams of the orcs could be heard one after another. In the first round of attacks by the human trebuchets, fifty stone bullets only destroyed one of the orc trebuchets. The platform of a siege ladder was damaged, and dozens of unlucky orcs were hit by stone bullets, either dead or injured.
The flag bearer of the trebuchet on the wall of Thor Fortress carefully observed the attack of the trebuchet he was responsible for, then estimated the position and angle, and immediately issued a series of instructions, directing his men to push The chassis of the trebuchet truck will fine-tune the attack direction of the trebuchet truck in order to achieve better results in the next attack.
After adjusting the launch direction, the soldiers in charge of the trebuchet turned the winch and pulled the upright ejection rod of the trebuchet to a horizontal position. Then a group of four people lifted the stone projectile weighing about 100 kilograms. Place it in the "spoon" with a groove at the bottom of the ejection rod.
Three minutes later, they were all ready. Under the command of the flagman, a soldier once again loosened the tightened winch rope and used the huge elastic force generated when the trebuchet ejection bar returned to its original shape to perform a second blow. emission,
The hit effect this time was better than the last time. The two siege ladders of the orcs were directly hit by stone bullets, and the wooden ladder used for climbing was immediately smashed into pieces. Without the wooden ladder, the orcs could not use it to siege the ladder. After climbing the city wall, the siege ladder was naturally scrapped. There was also an orc catapult that was hit by a stone bullet. Its ejection rod was accurately hit by a stone bullet in the middle. It was broken into two pieces on the spot. The orcs threw it away. Unload the damaged siege equipment and continue moving forward,
The orcs' trebuchets also entered the shooting range. They also began to twist the winch and slowly pulled the upright ejector rod of the trebuchet backwards. Some trebuchet warriors followed closely from behind. A stone bullet weighing about 80 kilograms was removed from the standing ammunition truck, placed in the "spoon" at the end of the ejection rod, and then the noose was eagerly released, while some orc warriors directly picked up the human stone trebuchet and threw it away. The stone bullets that came over were thrown into the "spoon",
"Huh." The stone bullets emitted by the orc trebuchets traced trajectories in the air and flew towards the Thunder God Fortress. However, the first round of the impact of the orc trebuchets was far less effective than the human trebuchets. Most of the stone bullets hit the ground under the city wall. Only three of them landed on the city wall. One hit the open space on the city wall, and then a few bounced and hit the south wall of Thor Fortress. , which gave the human soldiers standing nearby a false alarm, but the other two actually hit a human trebuchet. Not only did it destroy the trebuchet, it also caused a human who was twisting the rope to The soldier was killed on the spot,
General Kyenst frowned. He felt that his luck was not very good. In the past two hundred years, basically only human trebuchets were used to hit orcs, and there were very few examples of human trebuchets being damaged by orcs. The adjutant next to the general, Hans, whispered in his ear: "General, the orc attack can hit the city wall. Please come here immediately and return to the command post."
General Kyenst waved his hand, rejected the adjutant's suggestion, and issued the order to continue the attack. At this moment, the orc vanguard had reached a place almost 1,500 meters away from the Thor Fortress. In the previous battle, General Kyenst could see It turns out that the quality of the orcs' siege equipment is not as good as that of humans, but at a distance of 1,500 meters, all the orcs' catapults can attack the human soldiers on the Thunder God Fortress. They must be completely destroyed in the first time, otherwise the humans Soldiers will pay additional casualties,
"Boom, boom, boom." The ejector rod of the trebuchet kept bending, standing upright, bending again, and standing upright again, making a tooth-chilling sound. In the sky, stone bullets flew past one after another. , fell to the ground, either taking away the lives of enemy soldiers or destroying enemy equipment. Fifteen minutes later, all the siege ladders and catapults of the orcs were destroyed by humans, but humans also paid the sacrifice of thirty-nine people. The cost of lives and the total destruction of eight trebuchets,
At this moment, the orc soldiers have entered about 700 meters in front of the Thunder God Fortress and have entered the attack range of the human shooters.
