Chapter 21 The Development of War (Part 2)
"I hope you can think so." After hearing these words, Canrenli put a more complicated look on Anne's face.
Among the orc army, Lutiya Mushabi was patrolling the camp, and the orc warriors were also cooking food, and there were tired priests around taking care of the orc warriors.
“Is the food enough?”
"There are three days left to dosage." An orc replied.
"How are the priests?"
"It's quite bad. Sir, the high priest has arrived in the golden tent waiting for you."
"I understand." Lutiya Mushabi looked at the camp roughly, and then he returned to his golden tent. The golden tent must be a member of the Golden Family, and at least a ten thousand men in the leading position are qualified to use it. This is a huge tent 5 meters high.
"Your High Priest, you are here." Walking into the tent, Lu Tiya. Mushabi nodded slightly to the high Priest: "I'm just looking for you!"
"General, I'm just looking for you!" The high priest said with a smile and disdain.
"When is it for the withdrawal of troops?"
"Yes, now soldiers and officers are used to real battles, and they are no longer afraid of magicians' magic. We have also tried many ways to attack the city. Our purpose seems to have been achieved. Generals, our sacrifices and food cannot be supported."
Lutiya Mushabi's face turned dark, but it did not occur. Until now, the united sacrificial class is very powerful, and even the Khan has to give in a few points. Moreover, the set goal before sending troops has been achieved. There is no benefit to continue fighting.
Although he personally felt that he could capture the city by siege for a while, so he plundered the wealth and people behind him, and even the elves, but how many days would he have to be besieged to take it down? He had no clue. If there were too many casualties, he could not give an explanation to the senior management. Besides, the Temple of the Tiger Sei Dantian Earth would also attack!
In the golden tent, as Lutiya and Musabi pondered, he became dull for a moment. The high priest did not urge him, but just waited quietly. After a while, Lutiya and Musabi finally asked: "Your High priest, are there no food?"
"General, there is no more. Now this batch of food has been mobilized to reserve grain in the Khanate. If it is used again, you and I will not be able to bear this responsibility." A red flashed in the eyes of the great priest. It was a color that was only found in the divine power connection with the beast god (that is, the high priest). This color reminded him that the great priest in front of him was the one who was benefactor of the god.
After a pause, the high priest saw Lu Tiya. Mushabi was still pondering. He showed a solemn expression on his face and asked, "General, do you know how many people our orcs have?"
"It's about three million."
"Yes, it's only three million. How many humans are there on the continent? At least sixty million. Although there are still three gods left in this continent, so humans are divided, and there are many conflicts between the human gods. But can we three million orcs compete with 60 million humans? In the Khanate, we orcs had no agriculture and no blacksmiths. We all rely on hunting and animal husbandry. We split into tribes after tribe. When the Khanate was founded, our population was only 1.8 million. But now? We began to learn how to farm like humans, and we had a large number of blacksmiths and a large number of sacrifices. With such capital, even after many civil strife, our population increased by one million to three million in just over 200 years. What would it be like? Only then did we have the capital to attack the human land with all our might. Now the war is just a small war in some parts!"
"But humans are reproducing very quickly and are constantly immigrating to the north. Two hundred years ago, there were only a few hundred thousand humans here, and now there are more than two million." Lutiya Mushabi said unwillingly. In fact, this is the difference between the Khanate warrior class and the sacrificial class: "We can plunder humans and cleanse humans in the north."
From the perspective of the sacrificial class in the shower, it is now the stage of cultivation and rest, but from the perspective of the warrior class, this may not be too conservative. The warrior class, even members of the Golden Family, are eager to plunder and war.
"A large amount of plunder, even if it succeeds, will only lead to the degeneration of our production areas. Without our own production and cultivation, our beast tribe will have no future. What has plundered, tens of thousands of years of plunder led to? What has led to continuous weakness, and plunder can only maintain the survival of small tribes. Can it maintain the long-term survival of the entire empire?" The high priest said without hesitation: "Cultivating and resting is the principle of God's determination. We allow you to carry out local wars and plunders on mankind, but you are not allowed to destroy God's plan - the lessons of the past, you won't know it!"
After hearing this, Lutiya Mushabi's face changed drastically, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes. However, he did not attack in the end. He just walked around the tent for a few times before suppressing his anger and said, "Since that's the case, then according to the great priest's intention, we will carry out a general attack this afternoon. No matter what the result is, we will retreat tomorrow morning."
The angry Lutiya Mushabi obviously affected the army of the orcs. After a series of roars, and the Golden Guards were wearing heavy armor, these Golden Guards were tall and strong lions. These three hundred lions guards were holding a wide giant sword of four meters long and wearing heavy armor. They had strong and bloody morale in their steps. All the orc warriors lowered their heads in awe.
Lutiya Mushabi is determined to go out in person this afternoon.
The high priest had a complicated look. This is why the Golden Family was the capital of the Golden Family. The special nature and combat talent of the lion warriors, plus the top weapons, even the gods could not change this strength. It is not impossible to eliminate the Lion Family, but this will lead to a sharp decline in the strength of the entire beast clan.
Therefore, the past civil strife can only cause ups and downs to specific members of the Golden Family, but they cannot shake the status of the entire Golden Family.
"Gewushi! Golden Family, Golden Family!" The orc army shouted.
This situation was immediately known to the people in the castle. After blessing the magic, he stared at the army of orcs mobilized and morale soared. Ryanstein's eyes were cold. He ordered: "Call my guards, and I will fight them down there!"
The heavy pace and the sound of attacking horns came from the orc army. All the soldiers and mages on the castle realized that this attack would be different from before, so they grabbed their weapons, held their breath, and waited for the cruel battle.
Many warriors prayed in a low voice, praying to their gods temporarily.
"Kill!" The shouts below and the shouts above burst out almost at the same time, and all the remaining catapults and collision cars that rushed up appeared in their field of vision.
At this time, Annien entered the control center mode again, but in his busy schedule, he still consumed energy to build up a magic barrier to protect himself. For him, protecting himself was the first important thing. The familiar Eye of the Tower of the Mage was immediately connected with him, and the entire battlefield appeared in his vision.
"Boom! Boom!" The terrifying roar sounded from under the city wall, and the sounds of huge rocks and crossbows continued. Even in the mage tower, you could feel the shaking of the impact on the city wall, and the shrill shouts and screams rang out again, and the density made people shudder.
Annien also saw the lion soldiers wearing heavy armor. Even the lions would have difficulty in making any difference in such a siege battle in such heavy armor, but the higher magic skills added by the priests to them made up for this shortcoming. Within a period of time, their armor would become lighter, allowing them to persist in fighting.
"Ice Cone Technique!"
When Annin and other lions approached, they immediately used the energy of the mage tower to cast spells. The white ice fog suddenly landed above the Lionman army, and then turned into thousands of sharp ice cones and fell down frantically. This was tantamount to thousands of sharp arrows.
However, after this ice cone technique was continued, the lion warrior actually blocked all the shields on one hand. Among the three hundred people, only a dozen were knocked to the ground, and the others were just injured. While being hit, the halo of divine magic flashed across their bodies.
Seeing this, Annin took a sudden breath. He gritted his teeth and decided to cast another spell. He noticed that after such a blow, the concentration of the aura on their bodies suddenly weakened a lot, but when he wanted to cast it, he suddenly felt dizzy.
"Warning, warning, the body shows signs of exhaustion, warning, warning, the body shows signs of exhaustion!" Luo Li's intelligent brain issued a warning voice, and then he realized that his divine power had reached the limit of his support for him, and his mental power was reduced to a very dangerous level for twenty-three days.
Annien braved a cold sweat to suppress the disgusting feeling of casting the spell. The spell had been activated, so he naturally could not stop, because once this spell cast using the mage tower was backfired, it was not something he could bear. Even if he could bear it, it would have to pay a considerable price. Instead of doing this, it would be better to cast this spell. Thinking of this, he still insisted on casting the spell.
Another giant ice cone technique fell down and fell madly into the lions' troops. This time, the halo of the magic technique flashed repeatedly, and it was obviously greatly weakened. More than thirty more were knocked down to the ground. Although not many of them were fatal, when they saw this situation, the people on the castle immediately cheered, and Lutiya Mushabi's face suddenly darkened, and the offensive of the Beast Clan's army was blocked.
