the next day. The temporary camp was officially completed.
All the forces settled down according to Marvin's arrangement.
And more adventurers are lingering outside the camp, preparing to pick up some sweets after the battle begins.
at noon.
Outside the camp, all the soldiers who are about to participate in this war are assembled.
Yes, no matter what your previous identity was, once you participated in the glorious campaign to open up the wilderness, you were a soldier.
You must obey the orders of the lord.
No matter what you think in your heart, at least superficial work still needs to be done.
Everyone gathered outside the camp, according to their respective forces.
Marvin rode a horse and came slowly from the northernmost point.
He wears a sword at his waist, and this sword was left behind by his grandfather when he opened up the wilderness.
Now, it is back in his hands again.
This kind of pre-war mobilization is actually mostly to boost morale. But the problem is that the army under Ma Wen's command is completely gathered together from all directions.
Except for a few, they had no loyalty to Marvin.
No matter what Ma Wen said, it would be difficult to motivate them to fight for themselves.
So he simply pulled out his saber, symbolically collided with the weapons raised by the soldiers in the front row, then turned his horse's head and returned to their front.
In the next second, he held up his saber and roared loudly:
"honor!"
"wealth!"
"open up!"
His voice was loud, resounding in everyone's ears, like thunder!
That's because he used a witchcraft scroll.
Except for those wizards, everyone was shocked. Their eyes finally focused on Marvin, and finally on the tip of the saber.
Marvin watched all this with satisfaction. His eyes swept over everyone:
"Warriors."
"Our ancestors have explored the wilderness countless times, and opened up piece after piece of pure land in Feinan, where there are many monsters."
"Now, we will follow their glory and march into the wilderness."
"I, Baron Marvin, will lead you to open up the wilderness again based on the wilderness development order issued by the Southern Wizarding Union."
"Today's battle is just the beginning. The wealth and resources we can obtain are far more than you imagined."
"We are unstoppable."
"All monsters will be slaughtered by us. Five or ten years later, this place will be extremely prosperous. And we will also be rewarded for helping the alliance open up a new territory."
"Nobility, fiefs, money, beauties...everything is at your fingertips."
"Now, please join me and draw out your weapons!"
In the last sentence, Marvin roared almost hoarsely.
bang!
The chaotic but loud chirping of gold and iron rang out immediately!
Everyone drew their weapons.
They looked at Marvin silently, no matter what purpose they had before, they participated in this battle.
But since it's on the battlefield. Then they have only one purpose, and that is to hit the enemy!
After all, their enemy is a terrifying ogre!
A small team of human soldiers may not be a match for an ogre.
At this time, if you want to play with your mind, it is tantamount to courting death.
Ma Wen raised his saber high, aimed at the high mountain, and slashed it down!
Whoosh!
There was a crackling sound in the air.
"Set off!"
The army moved slowly.
…
Ogre on the mountain. Huge but flexible figures are frantically busy.
They are building fortifications.
Ogres are not simply savage monsters. Some ogres are so intelligent that they can speak the Common Tongue.
About the Wilderness Reclamation Order. They have also heard about it.
Coupled with the warning from the old man in black, they were already prepared.
In the entire ogre tribe, there are a total of forty-five ogres, each of which is in the prime of life.
They migrated down from the Screaming Mountains in order to survive; and the reason why they did not raid the White River Valley was because the monsters on the Screaming Mountains were bound by the power of order.
This is the imprisonment set by God Lance back then.
Only when outsiders take the initiative to invade, will this power of order be released.
All ogres are excited!
They have long wanted to go down the mountain and have a taste of human beings. It's just that I have been suffering from no chance.
After all, Gnoll's meat is too sour to eat.
But now, the Wilderness Exploitation Order issued by Marvin launched an attack on them, which meant that the shackles that were tied to them were no longer there.
They can wantonly rush into human territory and occupy their own territory.
This is the dream of every ogre.
In fact, if their leader hadn't stopped them severely, most of the ogres would have rushed down and smashed these weak humans into meatloaf with their weapons.
They have long been unable to suppress the bloodthirsty desire in their hearts.
They didn't understand why the leader insisted on sticking to the mountain, wouldn't it be better to just kill him
These humans can't possibly be the opponents of the mighty ogre!
You know, every ogre is born with a racial specialty—natural power!
This means that their initial strength will not be lower than 20 points!
This is a very scary number.
Coupled with their super recovery ability, the same strong physique-except for a little agility, ogres are almost the most perfect fighters.
And humans
Human beings are just a kind of food in the eyes of ogres, and the taste is not bad.
However, in this ogre tribe, the leader's order is above all else. Knowing his great strength, they would not easily offend him.
Since the leader said to stick to the mountain, stick to it.
Anyway, the leader also promised that sooner or later, he would lead them down the mountain and into the human territory. Prey on their favorite prey wantonly.
…
Two miles west of Ogre Mountain.
Under Marvin's hint. The army stopped advancing.
At this distance, the two sides can already see each other.
And with the sprint speed of an adult ogre, it can rush into the human camp in three minutes, so it is necessary to keep a certain distance.
I saw that strict fortifications had been built on the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside.
This is not the style of an ogre.
Marvin frowned slightly.
If we forcefully attack the mountain, I am afraid that the battle will be very tragic. The ogres occupy the high ground, and there are many stones around them. With their terrifying arm strength, they can smash these stones at least a quarter of a mile away!
If he climbed the mountain by force, he might be crushed to death before he even got to the ogre!
"It's not good to go on like this."
Marvin saw the fearful eyes of everyone behind him. They are all mortal. Once hit by that stone, there is no doubt that he will die.
"We must find a way to drive these monsters down from the mountain."
With a wave of his sword, Marvin immediately gave the first order.
Soon, under the protection of a patrol team in River Beach City, six trebuchets slowly began to move forward.
The rest of the troops also dispersed and kept their distance. Slowly rushing around the mountain.
Since the ogres refused to come down, they didn't have to worry about the ogres' charge before that.
Marvin's strategy is very simple, that is, no matter what, the ogre must be driven off the mountain!
Forcing them to fight their own side on flat ground is the only way to win.
And the six trebuchets that Madeline sent over became his key to victory.
Ordinary trebuchet. A normal throw is about one-sixth to one-fifth of a mile.
But the six trebuchets that Madeline provided. It's not ordinary stuff.
They are all solidified with magic, and their range has more than doubled.
Each trebuchet was operated by four soldiers. Another person acts as the commander.
The people in the logistics team were responsible for transporting the carts of stones, which were smeared with turpentine and hot oil.
Even if it was a tentative attack, Marvin would try his best to test the ogre tribe's hole cards.
Finally, under the cover of the crowd, the army came to about half a mile below the Ogre Mountain.
The six trebuchets kept a certain distance, and the soldiers nervously adjusted their angles and began to aim.
The ogre on the mountain was obviously a little uneasy.
Some ogres hurled stones up the hill in a fit of rage.
Their strength is great, but there is still a gap in the distance from hitting the human side.
Under Marvin's order, everyone got ready. Once the ogres were enraged and rushed down the mountain, they had to fight according to the combat policy set by Ma Wen.
Only in this way can they take the mountain with the least cost.
"Master Marvin, the trebuchet is ready!"
shouted the commander.
Marvin's saber pointed at the "fortress" built by the ogre on the mountainside, and ordered: "Smash it!"
The next second, the sound of bouncing and bouncing sounded, and a dozen pieces of gravel suddenly left the human position. Under the blessing of magic, every stone flew very high!
Not only that, because the turpentine and hot oil were applied to the stones, under high-speed friction, every stone turned into a burning stone!
Rumble!
The stones smashed into the ogre fortress scatteredly, and for a while, there was a trace of disorder on the mountainside.
"continue!"
Marvin said harshly.
Soon, the next round of projections will be ready.
Everyone watched all this nervously.
After three rounds, the mountainside had turned into a sea of flames, and the ogres were extremely angry.
Although these flames couldn't harm them, they angered them.
They roared angrily and grinned at the foot of the mountain, wishing to kill them immediately!
However, what made Marvin feel wrong was that even though he was so provocative, these ogres still couldn't be killed!
"Who is their leader?"
Marvin searched hard for clues. However, the ogres all looked similar, and he didn't see anyone giving orders.
"My lord? Do you want to continue?" the commander of the trebuchet asked.
Before Ma Wen could answer, suddenly, a guy with light black skin rushed out of the ogre halfway up the mountain!
With a roar, he jumped down from the mountainside!
boom!
After the loud noise, a trebuchet was smashed by his huge body!
But he himself was safe and sound.
Everyone was terrified.
The corner of Marvin's mouth twitched slightly—[Iron Armor]
Legendary Ogre!
