The orcs risk their lives to attack, while the humans go all out to defend. The orcs are better than the individual soldiers. Although these orcs are not the most elite, most of them are old orcs, but their fierceness is very impressive to the humans. The defenders suffered. Even though these orcs had seven or eight feather arrows stuck in their bodies and had more than a dozen bleeding wounds around them, they still fought hard. The human defenders had the advantage of the terrain. After all, they were condescending and their opponents were With only ordinary wooden ladders to climb, it is impossible for the main forces of both sides to have full contact like on the plains. As long as the orcs firmly hold on to the wooden ladders set up on the city wall, they can create a military advantage in the area, not to mention the human defenders. The number of the army already exceeds that of the orc army. If a human soldier is killed or seriously injured and falls, his companions will immediately take up the previous position, while the orc soldiers will die one less. If they are severely injured, they can only fight to the death on the spot.
General Clark is deeply aware of the terror of the orcs. In the past few decades, the orcs have recuperated their strength and only sent tens of thousands of troops to attack the Thunder God Fortress in a symbolic manner every year. They only left thousands of corpses and hurried away. Escape, the defenders of Thor Fortress slowly began to think of underestimating the enemy. Now the frontline commander, General Clark, commanded 40,000 elite soldiers, and also occupied a favorable terrain. They were still pressed by the orcs step by step, and many monsters appeared on the city wall. After opening the hole, the orcs are still climbing up continuously. Once the orcs gain a foothold, they will threaten the entire defense line.
In order to drive these orcs away, General Clark eliminated almost all the troops he could deploy, including those who were slightly injured in the battles in the past few days. Originally, Clark's army had a total of 70,000 troops, but in the past few days, Tian's battle losses were huge, and the number of killed and seriously wounded was not small. These could not be replenished in a short period of time. Some of the team structures had been destroyed and it would take some time to reorganize. Therefore, the regiment to which General Clark belonged There are only more than 50,000 soldiers, which is why he carried out General Keenst's order to hire mercenaries to assist, because his soldiers need time to rest and rest. Otherwise, with General Clark's character, he would have told those mercenaries to get out. ,
To General Clark's surprise, the attack by the orcs today was too fierce. There were faint signs of a breakthrough in his defense line. If the orcs could not be driven away, General Clark would have to use his last attack. Play a card and personally lead your own guard to attack. If that doesn't work, you will have to ask General Keenst for help and ask him to mobilize soldiers from another legion for support. How can the arrogant General Clark tolerate this
The only bright spot on the entire defense line was Ryan and some of his new subordinates. General Clark just made some arrangements casually at first. In the face of a powerful enemy, Bruce actually took the initiative to provoke him, and was beaten lightly by the enemy. He could only He deserves it, but Bruce is a warrior after all. In such fierce battles, a warrior's brave fighting can often boost the morale of one's own side, so General Clark simply did not punish Ryan, but gave Ryan a chance to show his strength. , I didn’t expect to get a big surprise,
General Clark witnessed Ryan's great power under his personal guards. The boy's magical energy seemed to be inexhaustible. He had fireball, lightning, and magic missiles. General Clark had seen other magicians casting spells, so he could naturally do it. He recognized it, but he never thought that a magician could cast spells continuously for more than an hour and release hundreds of magic spells. Since it was impossible to be distracted and calculate the results on the battlefield, General Clark did not know how many enemies Lane had killed. , but seeing a lot of soldiers slowly gathering around this young magician, where the orc offensive is the most fierce on the entire front, Ryan will lead the people around him to quickly support him, and use accurate magic and arrows to ruthlessly harvest. The enemy's life, relieve one's own crisis,
Soon, the human defenders regained many of the lost positions and consolidated their defense lines. On the entire wall of Thor Fortress, there were only a few places where orcs were still resisting, but those places were far away from Ryan. That's why those orcs persist until now,
Seeing that the crisis was over, General Clark thought to himself: "Maybe there is no need to use my guards. They are the most elite, but they are the last trump card. If the hundred thousand elite orcs arrayed outside suddenly attack, I'm afraid..."
"General, look." General Clark's train of thought was interrupted by his bodyguards. General Clark withdrew his thoughts and looked along the fingers of his bodyguards. A few hundred meters away, about 1,000 orc wolf cavalry were heading towards him at full speed. The walls of Thor's Fortress were approaching. His archer commander mobilized hundreds of people to intercept them with bows and arrows, but to no avail. Following closely behind these wolf cavalry were 10,000 orc troops.
"General, originally the 10,000 orcs attacked, but those wolf cavalry were faster." One of General Clark's guards whispered,
Clark made a prompt decision and immediately issued an order, asking his shooter commander to allocate more manpower to intercept, and then ordered the catapult to move immediately, in order to delay the time of the orc reinforcements no matter what. At this moment, there was a melee on the city wall. Although General Clark's order was very It was quickly conveyed, but it would take a lot of time to actually mobilize the soldiers who were caught in the melee, and then attack the enemies in the distance as a whole team. However, those galloping orc wolf cavalry did not give the human defenders this time. By the time the archer commander mobilized enough men to launch a volley, the orc wolf cavalry running at the front had arrived less than 50 meters below the city wall.
These orc wolf cavalry are actually the personal guards of the leader of the Serpent Clan, but they just use the speed of the wolves to quickly pass through the human defense line. The few orcs who are running in the front and the personal guards of the leader of the Serpent Clan are already fighting in front of them. The first line was reached, and the ground was littered with boulders, logs, siege engines, and corpses of those killed in battle. They jumped off the wargs and rushed forward with long strides. Their own running speed was no less than Riding on the warg, we arrived at the city wall in a few breaths.
The guards of the orc giant snake clan leader roared loudly, and instead of holding on to the wooden ladder with their hands, they just jumped hard and stepped on the wooden ladder in the air. Then they used their bodies to jump up again. As soon as they set foot on the city wall, the guarding human soldiers did not expect that these orcs were so powerful. The two human soldiers who had just moved a log saw an orc coming to the city wall, waiting for them to work together to lift it. When he reached the log, the orc had already appeared in front of him.
Of course, these clan leader's personal guards would not be soft-hearted. The one who rushed at the front immediately flew up and kicked the soldier who raised the log in the chest. The soldier screamed and fell to the ground, covering his lower body. The weight of the wood was not light. Another human soldier suddenly felt his hand heavy. Just as he was trying to stabilize it to prevent it from falling to the ground, he saw a white light flashing in front of his eyes. Then he realized that he was getting heavier and heavier. He is short, but the figure in front of him looks very familiar.
"Kill." Several human warriors holding spears saw the orc giant snake clan leader's bodyguard leaping up the city wall, kicking one of his companions to death, and then cutting off the head of another companion with a knife. They raised their heads with hatred. With the spear in his hand, he formed a small spear array according to the method taught by the instructor, and stabbed the orc side by side.
The bodyguard of the leader of the Orc Giant Snake Clan was not in a hurry. He waited until a few spears reached him, then immediately jumped up high, pressed down the shield in his hand, and pressed the spearheads of the spears against the shield. Then, the clan leader's personal guard rolled up on the spear. The human spear warriors felt their hands sink. Seeing the orc clan leader's personal guard suppressing their own weapons with shields, they invariably used force on their hands and picked up the spear. Head, the orc happened to roll over from high to low, approaching these spearmen,
In this situation, it would have been the best choice to abandon their weapons and retreat, but these human spearmen hesitated. After all, it is the greatest shame for a soldier to drop their weapons and run away. But after hesitating like this, they again It was too late to retreat. The orc rolled to their side and immediately picked up his ax and slashed wildly. The screams could not be heard. The human spear warriors fell down covered in blood.
After the bodyguards of the leader of the Orc Serpent Clan hacked to death several human spearmen, he did not continue to move forward. Instead, he cautiously raised his shield in front of him and retreated carefully. A human archer drew a long arrow. He was about to give the orc a fatal blow, but unexpectedly another clan leader's bodyguard stepped onto the city wall. Seeing the archer trying to sneak attack him, he threw the ax in his hand without saying a word.
The flying ax thrown with full force from a distance of more than ten meters was a very terrifying weapon. The human shooter had no time to dodge. The ax broke the bowstring, then struck him in the chest, and fell limply to the ground.
The clan leader's guard who threw the ax touched his right hand on his waist and pulled out another bronze axe. He raised the shield in his hand to block the spear thrust by a human warrior, and then swung the ax in his hand to slash hard. A human sword and shield warrior hit him. The human sword and shield warrior hurriedly raised the shield in his hand to block it. The ax hit the shield and sparks popped out. The human sword and shield warrior was not as powerful as the bodyguard of the leader of the giant snake clan. He was struck by this The blow hit the shield, unable to stand, and stumbled back.
The orc did not continue to pursue, because there was another human sword and shield warrior who stabbed him with a long sword. At this time, the orc had not retracted the ax after slashing, so he simply picked up the shield in his hand and slapped him hard. The human sword and shield warrior made a loud "bang." The human sword and shield warrior couldn't bear the violent impact. He spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow" and fell backward.
In just a few minutes, the personal guards of these giant snake clan chiefs opened up multiple footholds on the city wall. They did not continue to kill, but just stayed in place, trying to stabilize the positions they had occupied, waiting for their compatriots to attack with all their strength. Climbing up, the human warriors went back with all their strength to seize the lost position, but these clan leader's personal guards were far from comparable to those ordinary orc warriors just now. Even if the human soldiers used several times the force, they were unable to tear apart their defense line. Seeing that the already consolidated human defense line is gradually being broken through by the orcs,
