"Your Majesty the Emperor, I think we should open another battlefield!" At the military meeting of the orc army, young Wilder, who had previously suggested the formation of a mobile force, suggested, "At this time, the army is in vain. It is better to open another battlefield. Put more pressure on humans!”
Emperor Yiluo was slightly startled and looked at the staff officers.
He has always believed that professional matters should be handled by professional people. He never makes the decision on such strategic issues by himself. He always consults experts first.
The staff officers had already discussed this matter, and now they all nodded in agreement.
"That's right, the army is confronting the humans here, so it doesn't actually need that many."
"Although we cannot disband the troops and go back to farming, it is still feasible to mobilize some troops to attack other places."
"And if we put more pressure on humans, we may have more opportunities."
Since the staff group's opinions were unanimous, Emperor Yiluo nodded and agreed to the matter, and then he asked the staff group to arrange how to deploy troops and choose the target of the attack.
In fact, there is no choice in the target of the attack. There are only two directions to attack humans from the Orc Empire. Either go east and attack the Kingdom of Glory; or go south and attack the Kingdom of Eagle.
If you attack the Kingdom of Glory, you must attack the solid Great Wall defense line. The two sides are currently facing each other here. They fight a small amount for three days and a large amount for five days, but they still cannot win or lose. They are just wasting military rations, materials and human lives in vain.
To attack the Eagle Kingdom, you must attack the northern fortress group composed of multiple fortresses. Emperor Yunero once conquered several of these fortresses, but later lost most of them due to the "Battle of the Day the Sun Dies". Only one of the fortresses remains.
In recent years, there has been no war between the Eagle Kingdom and the Orc Empire, and the defense of the northern fortress group has been somewhat slack. But now that the two tribes are engaged in a war, it is impossible for the Eagle Kingdom not to station heavy troops at the fortress defense line. This war is likely to be another tough battle!
But when had the orcs ever been afraid of war
So what about a tough battle? They also attacked these fortresses back then and even gained an advantage!
So when the news came out that they were preparing to form an army to attack the Eagle Kingdom, all the orc armies actively signed up. In the end, the ones who got the chance to participate in the war were several races known for their bravery or speed.
Of course, there are also large numbers of flying troops.
To attack the northern fortress group of the Eagle Kingdom, one naturally needs to confront their famous aerial knights, and flying troops are indispensable.
The orcs always do things very quickly. In just a few days, the army was selected and then immediately started to move towards the Eagle Kingdom.
It is difficult to hide the movements of the army from the enemy. Even though humans are currently at a disadvantage in terms of magic confrontation, they can still complete the reconnaissance work with their huge air force. Therefore, the orc army has just launched, and the human commanders have Got the information.
When he learned that the orcs had separated a large force and headed southwest, obviously heading towards the Eagle Kingdom, the king of the Eagle Kingdom immediately couldn't sit still. He hurriedly bid farewell to the coalition headquarters and hurried back to the kingdom to go. Host the army.
His own family knew about his own affairs. Ever since the Eagle Kingdom split from the Griffin Principality, its military power had been greatly weakened. Although there has been no large-scale war with the Orc Empire in recent years, and the population has recovered to a certain extent, the inherent shortcomings have never been able to make up for it.
If the orcs had attacked the Eagle Kingdom at the beginning of the war, perhaps he could have withstood it with adequate preparations and support from various countries. But after these months of war, the armies of all countries have suffered heavy losses, and the Eagle Kingdom is no exception. Especially the air force - the human air force mainly comes from the Eagle Kingdom.
Currently, the "Aerial Knights" that the Eagle Kingdom is proud of have lost less than 30% of their previous strength. There are not many ground troops left - there are still many ordinary troops, but the elites who have undergone new training have been reduced. Not much.
What's more, even if there are remaining troops, so what? Could he still be able to bring the troops back to the Eagle Kingdom from the Great Wall defense line
From the defense line of the Great Wall to the defense line of the Northern Fortress Group of the Eagle Kingdom, orcs can gallop all the way across the plains and grasslands in plain clothes, but humans have to pass through many mountains and mountains, and they can't get up no matter how fast they are.
Therefore, in the end, he could only take a few masters and the remaining air knights back, and ask for support from other countries.
Since the start of the war, the Northwest Republic has restricted all teleportation arrays. Apart from purchasing daily necessities and allowing refugees to pass through, residents of various countries are no longer allowed to pass freely. Without the most convenient transportation method in the world, those who want to be the first to It's easier said than done to rush back before the orcs who have the advantage of the location and take the first step!
Fortunately, with the efforts of the magicians, they arrived at Eagle Wing City in time.
As soon as he arrived at Eagle Wing City, the king, who wanted to call Leon "Uncle Grandpa" in terms of seniority, immediately issued a general mobilization order, mobilizing all the young men in the country who could be mobilized, and assembled a large army, heading towards the northern fortress group. Go.
At the same time, he continued to urge the Griffin Principality, the Kingdom of Thousand Springs and the Gold Coin Federation to send troops to support as soon as possible.
He didn't know if this would be possible in time, but now, he could only try his best to give it a try.
Of course, he also sent a letter asking for help to Leon, but this time, Leon clearly rejected him.
"Before I became the elder of the Igor family, I was first the chief priest of the Church of the Masked Void." Leon replied, "The Church of the Masked Void is neutral in this war, and this is also my attitude. If you If you are worried, you can send some of the younger members of the family to Void City, and I will protect them and take care of them."
The king had no choice but to follow what he said and sent some of the more outstanding juniors of the Igor family to Void City. He planned to at least preserve some blood for the family no matter what, so as not to let this most splendid and long-standing family in the history of mankind be destroyed. The family has weakened or even become extinct in this generation.
After all this was done, and the army was assembled, he went on the expedition himself. With the determination that he would succeed if he failed, he led this barely cobbled army straight to the defense line of the northern fortress group.
At the same time, the Kingdom of Thousand Springs also urgently mobilized its troops, crossed the difficult and rugged Duanyun Mountains along several relatively "low" mountain gorges, and hurried to the Eagle Kingdom.
Although the support force formed by the northern government of the Gold Coin Federation was easier to travel than them - passing through the northern part of the Great Swamp and part of the Graystone Mountains was much easier than crossing the Broken Cloud Mountains - their marching speed was slower than them. Much more.
Because this group of gold coin federal soldiers who rushed to support the Eagle Kingdom encountered the swamp army who also marched here to intercept them.
One side is more elite, the other has the advantage of the geographical location, and the two sides are fighting inextricably. Even though the Gold Coin Federation is relatively dominant, it cannot be done in ten days and a half to break through the obstruction.
As for the Griffin Principality, they are obviously very close and the road is easy to travel, but because they previously deployed a large number of troops to ensure the logistics and transportation of the Great Wall defense line, they can't send many elite troops now.
Therefore, when humans and orcs once again started fighting on the battlefield in the northern fortress group of the Eagle Kingdom, humans were at a disadvantage once again...
