Crack!
The sharp blade cut into the flesh and blood, and the hard neck bone could not resist the metal blade. Under the mighty power of the orc, the neck bone was smashed to pieces by this knife, and with a howl, the ice and snow demon wolf finally fell down. In a pool of blood.
Four bull warriors rushed up. Using the knives in their hands, they quickly dismembered the wolf's body and peeled off its fur. One of the bull warriors skillfully cut off the fattest piece of meat from the wolf's hind legs, and sent it to the tallest and strongest bull warriors who had been standing aside and watching coldly.
That guy's body is about 2.50 meters. His broad shoulders and bulging muscles contain great strength, but the iron armor weighing dozens of kilograms doesn't seem to have any sense of heaviness at all. Under its feet, There was a long knife with blood on the ground.
"Head, this is yours."
Glancing at the fat piece of wolf meat in front of him, the leader of the bull warrior opened his mouth and smiled: "Let's share it together! The harvest these days has been pretty good, enough to eat."
The wolf's body was quickly cut into a skeleton. These orcs dried it thoroughly, leaving no trace of meat. Those orcs hung the large pieces of wolf meat on their bodies. And the last guy took a look at the skeleton on the ground, grabbed it and carried it on his shoulder.
Four bull warriors dealt with an adult wolf, only one of them was accidentally scratched by the wind blade shot by the wolf, and the others were happy to get the spoils.
In the entire frozen forest, there are thousands of hunting teams like this.
More than 5,000 cattle warriors acted as the vanguard of the orc army. They have been wandering in the frozen forest for twenty days, and their mission is simple... hunting! Find anything that can serve as food!
In twenty days, the monsters in the Frozen Forest fell into bad luck. Whether it's a strong demon wolf, or those fire foxes hiding under the frozen soil. Or ghouls... They all became the prey of the orcs. A large number of monsters were hunted down by these guys, and then they were cut into pieces of dried meat and stored as future food.
Even those ground dragons with hard scales were lured out of the ground one by one under the powerful force and siege of the orcs. Then use the hammer forged by the dwarves to break their scales.
There is no other place in the Frozen Forest, but the number of monsters is huge, since how many epochs. Warcraft lives and inhabits in this vast forest, except for occasional sporadic hunting by bold and anonymous human mercenaries. Here, monsters have no natural enemies and can reproduce freely.
And now, these are stronger than Warcraft. And it has been twenty days since the orc army with high intelligence entered the frozen forest. The entire forest has become a huge hunting ground!
These orcs are born with the gift of hunting. They are familiar with the habits of all wild beasts, are more cunning than those human mercenaries, and are better at luring those monsters out of their caves to hunt and kill them. Even the traps they set up are more lethal than those of human mercenaries!
There are also large tracts of broad-leaved trees that have been cut down! Scores of forests have become tree stumps exposed to the snow and ice one by one.
To deal with those heavy woods, the strong orcs don't even need any carrying tools, as long as two strong orcs work together. It is enough to carry away the wood of a big tree!
Those timbers were cut down and made into various crude barracks. And the leaves of those trees, especially the broad leaves. It can also become a favorite delicacy of hoofed orcs.
Among the orcs, hoofed people include horse people, cow people, etc. These races are omnivorous creatures. They can eat meat, but they don't reject those tender broad leaves.
More and more vanguard teams drove into the frozen forest. In this vast forest, they are looking for everything that can serve as food. Then store them away and wait for the army that will come later!
Great Round Lake has been taken over by orcs. The edge of this large lake is full of simple wooden sheds of the orcs. Every day, orcs use wooden sticks to break the ice to get water. They also learned to hunt water monsters in the lake.
In addition to the plump scale fish in Dayuan Lake, this is also a kind of monster, when this kind of fish jumps out of the water. It can spit out a poisonous sting like a sewing needle from its mouth, which can poison an adult human being.
But such toxins didn't seem to have much effect on the orcs.
Moreover, among the hoofed feet of the orcs, there is also a strange team. These orcs look like huge and fat bodies. They are bald and seem to have no hair, but they have super thick skins and contain a lot of fat! They have big mouths and small eyes, and they also have big thick teeth. At the same time, there are natural polyps in the huge nostrils, which can make them dive into the water and hide underwater for a long time.
And the thick fat cortex makes them not afraid of the cold lake water at all!
This line of orcs also belonged to the hoofed lineage—according to ancient legends, their ancestors had some kind of kinship with hippopotamuses.
This group of orcs occupies most of the surface of Dayuan Lake. They go back and forth between the lake and the shore every day, catching all the fish, animals and plants living in Dayuan Lake to their heart's content...
"How much have you harvested today!"
By the Dayuan Lake, in one of the largest wooden sheds, a leader of the orc tribe watched the leaders of the hunting team who came back to report.
"Those magical beasts are getting more and more cunning. I only caught fourteen magical wolves today... Haha, these things really look like that annoying guy Dominus." A leader opened his mouth and laughed: "If Maybe it has some kind of relationship with the wolf clan!"
"Shut up!" The leader said angrily, "Respect Lord Dominus of the Wolf Clan!"
"Hmph, those wolves only obey the orders of the elves. I'm afraid they have long forgotten that they are orcs." The subordinate muttered dissatisfiedly.
The orcs are in a very good mood.
This frozen forest, in the eyes of humans, is a wild and terrifying area, but in the eyes of orcs, it is simply a fat hunting ground!
"The human world is so wonderful." An orc couldn't help but sigh: "This is such a good place! We hunt here and harvest every day. It's more than a month when we are at home."
The orc leader sneered: "Didn't you hear what the elves said, so humans call the place where we were expelled a land of evil. But these humans occupy the best land... Let's keep working hard! Store more food, Our army is coming soon!"
"I heard that the wolves have left the forest. They have fought against humans a few times... Sigh. I really envy those guys. I heard from the wounded of the wolves who sent them back yesterday. They have already tasted the taste of human flesh." .” The leader of a hunting team sighed, and muttered enviously: “That must be delicious.”
After more than two months of investigation, some members of the wolf cavalry. The farthest place even ran to less than 500 meters below the Kaspersky Fortress!
Imperial soldiers guarding the walls. Many people have seen those twos and threes with their own eyes. A monster galloping on a giant wolf.
Then, the wolf cavalry completed their inspection of the area north of the Kaspersky line of defense, and they got enough news. Finally, they all returned to the frozen forest.
"Humans are ready for war." The wolf cavalry brought back the news: "Humans have established a line of defense in the south, and a large number of troops are stationed. To the north of the line of defense, almost all humans have evacuated. Many abandoned The villages and towns, as well as the food in the land, are all gone... But we still caught less than about 600 humans who didn't evacuate... It's ridiculous.
I heard that humans have issued a war order, the leader of humans... oh. I heard that their leader is called "Emperor". The emperor ordered all humans to evacuate, but there are still some disobedient guys staying... It's ridiculous, why did they stay and die? "
A leader of the Wolf Clan cavalry vanguard. Report to the leader in front of you.
The body of this wolf cavalry is very strong, and there are spots of blood on the armor. And its attitude is very respectful. Because standing in front of it and listening to its report. Among the orcs, the leader of the wolf clan, one of the three giants of the orcs, Dominus!
Domines' wolf helmet was casually placed on a stone, and it heard the doubts of his subordinates. The leader of the wolf tribe sneered: "Why don't you leave and stay to die?"
"Yes." The wolf cavalry sneered: "Poor guy, all of them have become our food. My people have made them into dried meat with their own hands. The taste... is not bad. But why don't they leave?"
Dominus sighed suddenly, and looked up at the sky: "Because. They are reluctant to give up their land."
Dominez's tone was complicated: "Just like when our ancestors were expelled from this continent 10,000 years ago, at that time, we were also nostalgic for this place, and there were also many people who refused to leave... This is difficult for the homeland. The feeling of giving up."
The subordinate looked at the respected leader and suddenly smiled: "My lord, your tone of voice is like those hypocritical elves. Only elves can express such emotion."
Dominez wasn't angry either. Shaking his head, he said, "No matter what...we're back!"
came back! !
Two months later, the first large orc army. Finally out of the southern end of the frozen forest!
More than 20,000 orc soldiers. Line up and cross the edge of the forest. Came to the flat northern plain!
The open land in front of you, and the villages and towns abandoned by humans faintly visible in the distance, those buildings, those mountains, those lands...
After the first 20,000 cattle soldiers walked out of the forest, after a brief silence, roars and cheers suddenly burst into the sky!
The orcs waved their big knives, or beat their armor with the back of their knives. The sound of ping-pong-pong, and countless howling sounds scared away all the birds in the distance, and some people beat their chests vigorously. .
The waves of sound came and went, one after another.
Many orcs even threw themselves on the ground, stretched out their thick palms, and inserted their fingers fiercely into the frozen and hard frozen ground. Regardless of the pain of their fingers, they grabbed a lot of dirt with all their strength, and smashed it hard. She rubbed her hands, and then opened her palms vigorously!
"Land! It's the land! Look at the dirt, look at the land! How rich it is!
The orcs cheered, and some cried loudly.
"These are the lands of our ancestors! Our ancestors were driven away from here! Driven away by those hateful and despicable humans! These lands originally belonged to us!!"
"Ten thousand years! Ten thousand years!! We are back!!"
"We're back!
"came back!
Amidst the howling, the raised blades formed a forest, and under the sun, there were patches of cold light!
"What do you think these things are screaming?"
High above the sky, in a hot air balloon airship, four soldiers of the empire looked down at the ground. They hid high above the sky, and the excited orcs below did not notice them.
The soldiers of the empire held a prepared telescope in their hands, which was a product of the Northwest Tulip family and an invention of the Duke of Tulip.
Although the magician's "Eagle Eye" can replace the telescope, the number of magicians is too rare after all.
In the binoculars, the human soldiers looked seriously at the crowd of jubilant and jumping monsters below.
"What are they shouting? Why are they so excited? It's like they've already won the fight, huh!"
A soldier sneered.
"Okay." The chief of the airship shook his head: "We don't need to think about this, let's go back now, send the news back, and tell the higher-ups that these monsters are here."
"Boss..." the soldier suddenly whispered: "Look, there are a few bombs hanging under our airship... Do you want to drop them? Let these monsters suffer, and avenge the dead cavalry scout brothers."
"Go back!" The officer said coldly: "Our mission is to conduct reconnaissance, not to alert the enemy! Strictly obey the regulations! Have you forgotten!"
The current First Division of the Imperial Air Force, the former Northwest Independent Division, at the beginning of the establishment of the Northwest, Du Wei gave this army a completely different brand from the traditional imperial army: strict regulations, and absolute obedience!
Although the soldier felt sorry, he still carried out the order, muttering in a low voice, "Hmph, what's the name of the devil! I'll beat you all back sooner or later."
