Three consecutive months of frenzied killing of Orc civilians and non-stop harassment of the Orc army have not only caused the Orcs to suffer tragic losses, but also made us extremely exhausted.
Not to mention that we, a group of slaughterers, have to carry out large-scale killings every day. Just the daily efforts to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the large orc tribe forces mean that we don't have much time to sleep well all day long.
In the harassment war against the orcs, the Kingdom of Yan had only a few high-level wizards who could cast magic in flight. Furthermore, they had to be on the move 24 hours a day, so even the elite wizards could not withstand this high-intensity and high-risk job.
But as the war went on, I slowly gained some information, that is, the orcs' high-ranking officials could no longer tolerate the large groups of rats constantly making trouble in their homes, and the only way to stop this was to eliminate us in the near future or inflict a serious blow on us.
After learning the news, I made a prompt decision to issue a gathering order to the God's Legion that was gradually attacking separately, and rushed to the Holy City where the Magic Temple was located as quickly as possible. There, Queen Yan spent countless resources to build a second defense circle armed with magic cannons according to my suggestion. It was also the largest human gathering place closest to the beastman's army.
After flattening several orc gathering places along the way, I led more than 40,000 troops into the Holy City, the center of spiritual belief of the people of the Kingdom of Yan.
"Welcome back, our fearless and invincible messenger of God..."
When I led the team into the walls of the Holy City, the Magic God Priests, who represented the spiritual leader of the Magic Temple, used amplification magic to welcome us in the Magic Temple. This treatment had always been given only to Emperor Yan. Then, the people on both sides of the street began to cheer like mountains to welcome their heroes.
Finally back alive... This sentence has become the common voice of almost all the God's Legion. Although in the past three months, I still often sent troops back to the human-controlled area to replenish supplies, but most of the time, I only sent a few thousand soldiers with vehicles to replenish arrows, magic, artillery shells, etc. from the human-controlled area. I didn't even have the opportunity to let the whole army rest in peace.
"Sir, your achievements have spread throughout the Kingdom of Yann, and even to the places in the East Continent that are still controlled by humans. This has not only inspired our warriors' confidence in resisting the invasion of the orcs, but also motivated ordinary people to actively participate in the resistance.
Although we haven't added many qualified and powerful magician troops, our Kingdom of Yan has also recruited more than 2 million young and middle-aged ordinary soldiers. Now, all of us are more confident that under your leadership, we can completely drive the orcs back to the northern wilderness. "
At the entrance of the city wall, standing alone on the avenue to greet me was my deputy Victor in the Dragon Legion. With admiring eyes, Victor dismounted and bowed to me in front of everyone, kneeling on one knee. And according to the current relationship between him and me, even if he bowed to me, it would be very respectful.
I quickly stepped forward and helped Victor up, and I looked up at the crowd near the city gate. Among them were a large number of magicians, ordinary soldiers who had just joined the army, and even more ordinary civilians.
"I don't want to say anything, and I don't know what to say... But I just want everyone to remember one thing, that is, if the orcs invade our territory and allow them to occupy our homes... then there will be only one outcome, and that is death... We will all die...
Based on what I have seen and heard in the original human towns and villages in the beastman-controlled areas over the past three months, none of us can survive. What those beasts want to do is to kill all of us humans and occupy our land.
Starting tomorrow, I will issue a Level 3 combat conscription order. All young and middle-aged men must join this system, otherwise they must leave this city. . . . I do not welcome the existence of any trash who is not willing to work hard for their homeland. . . . . . Now, tell me, are you trash?"
"No!"
The roar was as loud as a mountain, shaking the entire earth and making everyone's blood boil. Looking at the passionate crowd, I took Victor by the hand and walked towards the city center.

After arranging the troops to the barracks for rest, I washed myself and changed my clothes and walked out of the room to the hall. I knew that the main officials in this city, including Victor, must have gathered there. After all, the warning I sent a few days ago clearly told them that the beastmen were likely to launch a large-scale offensive against the Holy City. In their eyes, what I called a large-scale offensive was definitely not an ordinary war.
"Sir, we have read all your warnings, and have also made various deployments under our available power. So far, the entire Holy City defense zone has 517 magic cannons, about 110,000 regular magician troops, and more than 70,000 ordinary magicians. In addition, there are two infantry divisions of the survivors and more than 500,000 newly recruited ordinary soldiers. . . . .
But what worries me is that, no matter how I calculate, after removing the 50,000 elite mages of the Dragon Legion and the 20,000 warriors of the survivors, the remaining troops are not even as strong as a Dragon Legion. . . . . . "As soon as I sat down, Victor, who had become the defense commander of the Holy City, immediately gave me a brief introduction to the troops in the Holy City.
"It doesn't look good... Those 500,000 ordinary soldiers, I'm afraid that even 50,000 orcs can easily wipe them out when they really go to the battlefield... Then who can tell me, how many orc troops are there in the orc camp opposite us now?" Frowning, I estimated how many orc troops I could fight against on the battlefield with the troops I had.
