Such a tragic exchange ratio can be described as an extremely bloody and sad battle for humans. Even the orcs who had the upper hand couldn't help but feel fear when they looked back at the battlefield of a night of fierce fighting after sunrise.
The ground for dozens of miles has turned into scarlet, and countless corpses are piled up on the ground, which can be seen almost everywhere. In several places where battles were particularly intense, corpses were piled up layer upon layer, forming a horrifying mountain of corpses.
Most of these corpses belonged to humans, but even those belonging to orcs were enough to scare the bravest orc warriors.
At this point, no one can continue the fight. If some repairs are not made, the humans will certainly not be able to bear it, and the orcs will also face the risk of blowing up the camp.
So the bloody battle came to an end temporarily, and both sides retreated their troops. Humanity hurriedly retreated, completely abandoning the positions they had worked so hard to build before, and directly retreated to the Great Wall defense line built over many years. The orcs took action to clean up the battlefield to avoid epidemics such as plague.
Sui Xiong watched all this from the sky and sighed deeply.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the weather is still cold now, and with my restraint, there will be no outbreak of plague." The God of Plague who accompanied him said, "And the orcs have always been very good at disposing of corpses, and they will not waste resources. of."
Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant.
The way the orcs dispose of corpses is simple: human officers wear exquisite armor, and the corpses can be preserved, waiting for them to spend money to redeem them. The corpses of ordinary soldiers and orcs were sent to be treated as "meat" after taking down the relics and sorting them out.
No matter human or orc, if it dies, it can only be regarded as meat. It costs a lot to transport corpses back home, and it is impossible for the families of ordinary soldiers to afford it, so they just need to sort out their belongings.
When an army is dispatched, it needs a lot of supplies every day. It is always good to have more meat to supplement it.
Large pots were propped up, and corpses regardless of race were processed and thrown into the pot, eventually stewing into a pulpy broth.
The two sides who once fought to the death finally merged into one, regardless of each other, and became the driving force for the soldiers to continue fighting.
Sui Xiong watched sadly as all this happened before his eyes, but did not stop it.
He once thought about stopping it, but after careful consideration, he decided against it.
War is cruel and survival is difficult. If the orcs want to win this war, they must use all means. If Sui Xiong stepped in to stop them from turning corpses into food, it would undermine their neutral stance.
In fact, the orcs are not inherently cruel. After the battle of "The Day the Sun Dies", they did not turn the corpses of the dead into food. It was probably because the war was over at that time...
"War, war... never changes..." He couldn't help but murmured a famous saying he didn't know where he had heard, "a cruel war..."
At the same time, in the void where the two divine kingdoms collided, various pantheons that had united to fight against humans had spread out like a net, trying their best to search for traces of human gods.
The human gods have not fallen, which can be seen from the fact that their temples on earth have not lost their holy light. But they must have been so badly damaged that they were unable to even provide magical support to the clergy.
If we don't find them now, kill them, and wait for them to catch their breath, everyone will be unlucky.
Fortunately, the Kingdom of Gods of the human gods has been destroyed. Without the foundation of the Kingdom of God, it will not be easy for them to recover.
Some gods have already sent their envoys to fly towards the human world, launching attacks on the churches and temples of human gods. However, due to the influence of the barrier on the main plane, the gods are not able to do much to the human world. The priests of the human gods rely on the defense of the temple, but they can still withstand it.
But everyone knows that if this continues, if the human gods do not appear again, as long as it is delayed for a while, their priests and temples will not be able to hold on.
Similarly, since they have been patient until now, when they appear, they will definitely be accompanied by a shocking and violent attack!
The war has temporarily reached a stalemate.
What broke the deadlock was the excited harassment troops sent by the orcs.
This time it is not a small force of thousands of people like during the Gold Coin Federation Civil War, but a large force counting in the tens of thousands. They used flying monsters to bypass the Great Wall defense line and rushed directly into the hinterland of the Kingdom of Glory.
This group of orc troops was not as ferocious as the mobile troops led by Earl House. They did not carry out massacres wherever they passed, but completely destroyed all production tools and food reserves in various towns and villages, and then walked away. , leaving only the refugees who had no food and clothing, and were in panic in the cold late winter.
This approach was naturally decided after discussion by the Orc Empire's staff group. They believed that blind massacre would not bring much benefit except wasting the soldiers' physical strength - for the decisive battle between the two races, massacre could not bring a blow. The other side's morale is just making the other side angrier, which is meaningless.
On the contrary, if only production tools and food are destroyed, then mankind will face a huge difficulty - those refugees who have lost their food, tools, and even their houses have been destroyed. Should they be saved? Still shouldn’t be saved? If you want to save, how to save
There is no doubt that this will greatly restrict the strength of the human side and will also cause them to consume a lot of supplies.
For the orcs, such a result is much more useful than a mere massacre.
"The living are always more useful than the dead, it just depends on how they are used." The former orc emperor Yunero Tiger once said this, and now the orcs have learned and applied his teachings to great effect.
As for Emperor Yunero himself, he is currently under the command of the orc gods. As a general, he is searching for clues of the human gods in the void.
However, he has also been paying attention to the war situation in the human world. The orc gods attach great importance to his opinions and have arranged for him several weak but fast envoys to act as liaisons so that he can learn about the human world in a timely manner. War situation.
When he learned that the orcs had sent out raiding troops to destroy human production and supplies without massacring civilians and leaving only countless refugees behind, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Well done!" he said, "Keep doing it, we will recover our disadvantages bit by bit and win in the end!"
"Your Majesty, can we really win?" asked the young man who had not been an envoy for a long time.
"Of course!" Yugnero laughed confidently, "Humans actually want to make enemies of all races this time. They are seeking their own death!"
