Chapter 260: Three Alls Policy
`
"Sir, there is a gathering place of the orc lion tribe ahead. According to intelligence, they are a medium-sized tribal gathering place with about 10,000 people..." After easily breaking through the orc blockade, I led the army into the territory controlled by the orcs. Because they have lost their long-range advantage and are worried that I will gather and move their small troops, the orcs dare not disperse their troops too much. They only set up a few large military camps along the entire front to prevent surprise attacks. Therefore, breaking through such a line of defense is not a problem for me at all.
"Very good, all troops, surround this tribe. The First Division will use long-range rockets to burn their gathering place first, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop!" Looking at the tribe not far away that was panicking and arranging defensive measures after discovering us, my first massacre order was immediately issued.
"As you wish, sir! Move out the whole army, let the orcs also have a taste of being slaughtered..." Following my order, Shen Qiang led the First Division to the front. Tens of thousands of soldiers drew their bows and arrows, and after piercing the ignited cotton with arrows more than 1 meter long, they shot at the gathering place in front of them at the maximum projection angle.
At a distance of nearly a thousand meters, the arrows shot from the strong bows quickly flew across this distance and stabbed their sharp arrow tips fiercely into their targets, no matter whether it was a human body or other wood or tent, they pierced into it relentlessly.
Afterwards, the casings filled with fuel that were firmly attached to the arrow tips were squeezed hard because they could not follow the arrow tips into the objects. As the arrows penetrated deeper into the objects, the fuel inside the casings exerted greater pressure on the casings. . . until the entire casing burst open, spilling the fuel all over the area around the arrows, and being ignited by the gunpowder that could not follow the arrows into the objects being attacked and kept burning on the surfaces of the objects.
In an instant, a raging fire broke out within a diameter of several meters, centered on the arrow. . . . .
If such arrows hit an object, it would instantly ignite it, and the fire would spread too quickly to be put out. If the arrows hit a crowd, not only would the person who was hit directly be severely injured and possibly ignite, but there was also a high probability that the people around the unlucky person would also be burned.
This is not the most troublesome and terrifying thing. Since this is the basic tribe of the beastmen, they also preserve and raise many domesticated beasts and livestock brought from the northern wilderness in the tribe, as well as countless livestock and animals that were snatched from humans by their tribesmen.
The things that were burned showed the most amazing things. After being burned, the only reaction of countless pigs, sheep, cows, dogs, chickens, ducks, etc. was to run around madly. In a short time, the gathering place, which was mostly made of animal fur and dry wood, was ignited into a huge fire pit.
"Burn it! Burn it! This is the interest I owe to my survivors..." Looking at the fire that was rising rapidly in the wind, Yiya whispered in confusion beside me. After the land of the survivors was occupied, since the news came that the orcs were slaughtering the survivors left in the land of the survivors, Yiya, who used to be extremely disgusted with killing the wounded and prisoners, has changed to this.
"Yiya, I will definitely avenge you... Just watch! We will let those orcs know what they will pay for invading our human land and killing our compatriots... and what they will gain in the end..." Gently pulling Yiya's hand, I pulled Yiya from her warhorse to my front, comforting her softly and making promises.
"Xiang, I don't know if I was wrong to bring you to the tribe..." Yiya leaned gently in my arms, her body trembling slightly.
"No, Yiya, you are absolutely right, and you really saved the survivors. Just think about it, if you didn't take me with you, then we would have no way to get to the Canglang defense line in time, not to mention almost annihilating the undead army.
And think about it again, if we have no way to cripple the Undead army, then after the orcs and the Undead army join forces, what ability will the human army have to resist the invasion of the orcs
No, there is only one outcome, and that is the demise of all of us humans. . . By then, do you think the orcs who occupy the Western Continent will let humans go? Will they let the survivors go? No, absolutely not. . . . . .
So, in fact, not only did you do nothing wrong, but you also made a great contribution. If it weren't for you, there would be no journey of my survivors, and there would not be millions of survivors leaving the survivors' land and coming to the Kingdom of Yan... So, it was you who saved them, and it was you who continued the heritage of the entire survivors!"
"Really? I really did nothing wrong? I..." After hearing what I said, Yiya seemed to be relieved a lot, and raised her hand to gently wipe away the tears that had been rolling in her eyes.
"Really, absolutely true... First of all, what we need to do is to deal as heavy a blow to those orcs as possible, so that they know that we humans are not so easy to bully. Only in this way can we force the orcs to withdraw, and we can ensure the safety of the entire Yan Kingdom, including your compatriots who have moved out of the Land of the Survivors."
"Can we really fight off the orcs?"
“Yes, absolutely! I swear in the name of your husband that I will send the orcs I killed back to their homes... Of course, if they are willing to die here, I don’t mind having a little more fertilizer in the Kingdom of Yan..." Looking at Yiya who had become extremely well-behaved in my arms, I made a serious oath to Yiya... Although I didn’t believe at all whether the oath would come true...
In the short time I was comforting Yiya, the situation on the battlefield had become extremely clear. . . Or maybe this wasn't really a war, it was just killing chickens and dogs. Under the huge fire, the orcs in the gathering place had no way to rely on their fortifications to resist, and they all ran against the wind towards me. (To be continued)
