Relying on the super alchemy bomb, the city wall collapsed.
Zachary led the soldiers of the Northern Army and easily broke into Graveson Castle.
Without the protection of the city fortifications and being attacked by alchemy bombs, the orcs in the castle blew up the camp in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Derenci seemed to have returned to that rainy night more than three months ago.
At this moment, the orc commander knew in his heart that the situation of the war was irreversible, and the orc army under his command had only one way out: defeat.
Drancy is a ninth-level orc, not very old, and has the potential to become a legend.
He is also considered a moderate figure in the Orc Empire.
A high-ranking orc like him would naturally not want to die in the same place as ordinary soldiers.
After discussing with Gunderson, Drancy decided to let the senior orc officers each lead some of their elite troops to disperse and break out.
Delenci is a ninth-level warrior with very strong fighting ability, and the guards he leads are also elite orcs.
Dozens of orc professionals launched a fierce attack and broke through the encirclement, escaping deep into the forest.
Gunderson was not so lucky and was surrounded by William with the third group.
Although Gunderson's combat power is much stronger than William's, on such a large-scale battlefield, a ninth-level werewolf cannot decide the outcome.
Surrounded by a superior force, Gunderson was quickly injured and his head was beheaded by William.
A ninth-level professional is worth a miracle and can be exchanged for a baron territory.
With this meritorious service, coupled with the military exploits accumulated by William in this war, he is not far away from being promoted to Viscount.
But this time William was not going to receive a second title, he was going to exchange his meritorious service for the Breathing Technique.
William's Holy Light Breathing Technique still needs two levels to be perfected. The last two levels of Breathing Technique are very valuable. If you want to redeem the copy, you need to consume eight great skills.
It's enough to get Gunderson's head and exchange it for the Breathing Technique.
William is a very ambitious officer. Although he is not of high origin, he has a soul that is unwilling to be inferior to others. He not only wants to become a noble, but also strives to become a legendary professional.
Zachary won a complete victory in this battle, annihilating all 15,000 orc soldiers and suffering only 3,000 casualties.
There were only about two thousand orcs who broke out from Graveson Castle.
It was already two days later that Richard received the news of the complete annihilation of the orc army.
The war broke out more than four months ago, and the military merits of Harland's territory were also distributed. In the first battle, he captured the orc military station and defeated the orc brigade. Richard received eight medium merits, annihilated Maruland's troops, and received four major merits and six medium merits.
achievement.
It is difficult to deduct military merits, but many achievements in winning battles were deducted by the royal capital.
According to common sense, Richard should have received four great merits by annihilating four brigades of orcs, but in the end, more than half of them were deducted, leaving only one and a half great merits.
The merits of Richard, the commander, were withheld, and the merits of his officers and soldiers were also withheld.
The significance of Richard's victory was almost reduced by more than half.
The nobles of Heihe County knew why Richard's achievements were withheld.
Richard offended the interest group behind Jerram back then, and now he is being retaliated against.
The Harland family has few connections in the royal capital, so they will naturally suffer a loss during the evaluation process. Richard has also considered this and is very clear about it.
It was a pity that the coalition of nobles in Heihe County did not dare to blame the royal capital for the losses they suffered. Instead, they had some estrangement from Richard and were unwilling to obey his command.
With the help of Baron Rice, they secretly wrote to Zachary, requesting to fight under the command of Viscount Romain.
In the past few battles, Richard did very well against the coalition of nobles in Heihe County.
Although Richard got the bulk of the loot, he didn't cheat them.
They never suffered any losses in each battle, and instead captured a lot of property.
Unexpectedly, their interests were slightly damaged. These nobles all stayed away from Richard and defected to Viscount Luomen.
Among these nobles, there is also Richard's uncle, Baron Duck.
Although Richard's mother and Baron Duck were not of the same mother, their relationship was relatively distant.
But because of this relationship, Richard took good care of Baron Dark.
Unexpectedly, he didn't care about friendship at all. Instead, it was Baron Sharp, because he was the first baron and had a strong military style. He was grateful that Richard helped him to defend his territory, and he was still willing to fight under Richard.
The last time he put down the rebellion, Richard had accumulated six major merits and nine medium merits.
In addition to the five major merits and four medium merits achieved this time, it is enough to gain a new territory.
This time he was targeted by the interest group behind Prince Felix. Richard kept it in his mind, and when he got the chance, he would naturally take revenge severely.
Now that he is not strong enough, he can only follow Duke Roger and unequivocally support Prince Chris.
In the military camp, Richard suddenly received the news that the scouts were missing. He immediately felt something unusual and immediately notified Soros and asked the cavalry to assemble.
The scouts sent by Richard totaled forty-eight people, divided into twenty-four groups.
There are six groups of people in each direction, each responsible for five kilometers of reconnaissance tasks.
The scouts returned to the camp in two hours and transmitted information once. The scope of the reconnaissance was thirty kilometers.
It has been two and a half hours now, and there is still no news from the scouts from the east. They must have encountered an accident.
Although Commander Zachary has annihilated the orc army, there are still many fish that have slipped through the net, and the biggest fish is the Orc Army Commander Drunci.
Suddenly thinking of this person, Richard decided to take a gamble.
When she heard Richard gathering the cavalry, Sophia immediately guessed what he was thinking and must follow Richard and participate in this mission.
After the Warcraft Cavalry assembled, Richard and Sophia, together with the Warcraft Cavalry, immediately rushed to the place where the scout disappeared. They repeatedly looked for clues and pulled a net to search, and soon found the body of the missing scout in the cave.
Following the traces left by the enemy, the Warcraft Cavalry followed and soon found the murderer.
The murderer was indeed the ninth-level lion-man Drancy.
At this time, Drancy was at the end of his rope.
At this moment, there are only eleven orc guards left beside Delunci. These eleven orc guards are all werewolves and lion men, and there is also a fourth-level one among them.
The guard's condition is not very good, and he is more or less injured. He has not eaten for two days, and his physical strength is only about half.
Although a big shot like Drancy successfully broke through, he was still being hunted by the Northern Army.
After finally getting rid of the pursuers, he was already less than 20 kilometers away from the orc army, but his traces were accidentally leaked. After killing the scouts, Delenci knew that the news would inevitably be leaked, and immediately took the time to escape. Unexpectedly, he was still chased by the Warcraft Cavalry.
superior.
Upon seeing Delunci, Richard's eyes immediately lit up, as if he had seen a precious treasure.
