The onslaught of orcs was coming soon.
Now, the team that Alexandrina could really use to fight those orcs was only 300 pure swordsmen in white robes.
It has to be said that, inherited from her father's training method, the combat effectiveness of this army is still guaranteed. The two-handed swordsmen are not considered heavy infantry, and they only wear inlaid leather armor, and their protection is not very good. However, in the case of the tiger and tiger wielding a big sword with both hands, in a head-on confrontation with the orc warriors who came on the attack, they did not lose the wind at all.
But this is only temporary.
The number of orcs is larger, and the arms are more complete. In the absence of heavy infantry to resist the charge of the orc army, the battle axes and hammers of the orc warriors are still very threatening. This kind of reckless fight, if you lose, you will be defeated, and most of the wins will be just a miserable victory.
With support in the rear, Delina is of course unwilling to accept such a result.
Her choice was also very smart, shrinking the team as much as possible, and strictly ordered the soldiers under her not to take the initiative to chase out. And she herself, together with Caroline, stood on the front line of the battle. The long swords in the hands of the two are flying up and down. A seventh-level swordsman and a ninth-level swordsman are still very powerful in battle. When facing the two orcs, most of them would think that women are easy to deal with at first, but after facing them, most of them would have their heads chopped off by their two-handed swords within one or two strokes.
The brown-skinned and green-skinned orcs, carrying heavy weapons, fought fiercely with the pure swordsmen, shouting all over the sky, and blood was continuously thrown out, the battle axes smashed their heads, and the warhammers smashed their chests. The pure swordsmen They suffered tragic casualties, and not to be outdone, they also beheaded each orc with their long swords.
From the very beginning, the fierce battle gradually developed towards the most tragic direction.
The eyes of the orc army are not blind, of course they can see that not far away, another human army led by Dane has appeared in the field of vision, and it may not be long before they will join the battle middle. However, now they have no choice but to quickly defeat the human army in front of them, they may still have the strength to fight again, even if they choose to retreat and escape, they will be much calmer.
But if they failed to defeat the Pure Sword Mercenary Group and let Dane lead the troops to kill them, then failure would be inevitable.
An orc commander riding on a wolf is not stupid. He watched Pure Sword's crazy resistance and Dane's troops approaching step by step. He was determined to put the last and strongest force in his hands into the battle: seventy wolf cavalry!
On the frontal battlefield, the orc infantry and the pure swordsman were inextricably fighting. Of course, he would not be stupid and directly put the wolf cavalry in his hand into the front. Not only would there be no way to exert the impact of the cavalry , It was a waste of the wolf cavalry's excellent maneuverability.
He instigated the war wolf under his crotch, uttered a war horn, and led the wolf cavalry under him to roar and start to move towards the flanks of the battle formation. Not only that, he also separated a small team, about a dozen wolf cavalry, and rushed towards Irons who was trying to regroup.
The movements of the orc wolf cavalry did not arouse the vigilance of the pure sword mercenary group.
In fact, if Delina was still in the command post, she would definitely be able to see the intention of the orc wolf cavalry—to use a small group of wolf cavalry to drive away those scattered mercenaries and prevent Irons from reorganizing his troops, even if it was It can't be stopped, at least it can delay the process to a large extent. The remaining main force of the wolf cavalry, led by the orc commander himself, went around to the rear of the pure sword mercenary group and launched a fatal attack.
There is no doubt that if the actions of the wolf cavalry are successful, it will definitely deal a fatal blow to the pure sword mercenary group. Don't say that Delina, who is facing the orc blade on the front line, can't notice it, even if she notices it, what can she do? The pure swordsmen who fought inextricably with the orc infantry from the front could hardly defend against the impact of the wolf cavalry from the rear in the fierce battle.
Now, the only thing that can be counted on is that Irons can sort out a troop in a short time, and then rush to support and defend the rear camp of the Pure Sword Mercenary Group. The number of this army does not necessarily need to be very large, there are dozens of people, forming a careful formation, blocking it for a while, and temporarily alleviating the impact of the wolf cavalry.
After all, Dane's large army is behind and is about to arrive. As long as they hold on for a while, it will be considered a victory.
But Irons failed to make the right choice at this time. His progress in reorganizing the rout was not very good. Under the impact and drive of a small group of wolf cavalry, the troops that could have been sorted out immediately were once again scattered due to being driven away.
There were only a dozen or so wolf cavalry, but they were like dogs driving sheep, driving the routs around with ease.
In fact, as long as Irons took the lead and brought some soldiers around him, it was enough to wipe out the wolf cavalry who came to make trouble. He himself has the strength of a tenth-level shield knight, and with a few mercenaries, how could he not be able to defeat a mere squad of wolf cavalry
But no one knows what he thinks, maybe because he didn't dare, he didn't make a decisive choice. As a result, the rout was still a rout, and it was difficult to carry out the reorganization, let alone fill in the danger on the rear front of the Pure Sword Mercenary Regiment.
Now, it seems that no one can save Delina's pure sword mercenary group. The team of wolf cavalry is about to bite their buttocks. Once these wolf cavalry really charge up from the side and rear, the swordsmen with their backs to the cavalry, under the scimitar of the orc wolf cavalry, will definitely be the same. A lamb waiting to be slaughtered is generally powerless to resist.
At the same time, after the fatal impact on the rear, the chain reaction will lead to the collapse of the entire formation of pure swords, and the two-handed swordsmen in the front will inevitably be unable to continue the fierce battle with the orc infantry, and the final result is to slide into the bottomless abyss among.
At the critical moment, a wave of thrown arrows and the flashing brilliance of arcane magic saved the Pure Sword Mercenary Group.
The ones who showed their power were of course the two teams belonging to Dane who had caught up first—the ranger troop and a small team of mages!
The rangers and mages who caught up before Dane's large army used arrows and spells to reverse the inevitable defeat of pure swords!
