There are interceptors in front and pursuers behind.
The situation is extremely serious, and if you are not careful, the whole army will be wiped out.
Bastruan could only fight with his last breath.
Only by defeating the Richard and Sophia coalition forces from the front can this orc brigade have a chance to escape.
Richard, the Sophia Alliance Army has four squadrons of soldiers, two of which are relatively elite and two of which are relatively average.
Although Bastruan had eight squadrons of soldiers, the battle losses were very heavy.
There are less than 30% of the kobolds in the two squadrons left, and their morale is also very low.
The two quilboar squadrons were slightly better, with more than half of their casualties already.
The casualties of the two tauren squadrons were relatively small, and their morale was maintained well.
The Wolf Cavalry Squadron and the Snakehead Heavy Infantry are the trump cards of Bastruan's troops.
Especially in frontal combat, the lethality of the Snakeman heavy infantry is very powerful.
Many times, ten snakemen can defeat an infantry squadron's battle line.
There are forty soldiers in a squadron of serpents. Like harpies, they are a special type of soldier among the orcs. Each one is a professional and can be said to be carefully selected.
Richard, the Sophia coalition has about 600 people, slightly less than the orcs.
The two armies were getting closer and closer. Richard made a visual inspection and found that the orcs had entered the range of the archers, and immediately ordered to release arrows.
When humans fight orcs, long-range projection is their strength, and their equipment is much better than that of the orc army.
The strength of the orcs is their physical fitness, they have more professionals than the human army, and they are good at close combat.
"Archers, prepare, shoot!"
The messenger waved the command flag and fired more than 400 arrows at the orc army.
Because the distance was relatively long, the hit rate was very average, and it only hit seven or eight orcs.
"Killing a first-level kobold will reward you with 500 experience points."
After hearing the attribute panel prompt, Richard was secretly happy and commanded his soldiers to fire a second round of volley.
This time the distance was less than 100 meters, and the hit rate was slightly higher, hitting more than twenty orcs.
The vast majority of those hit were kobolds.
Kobolds have a lower status among the orcs, and this time they are still forced to take the lead, consuming their arrows as cannon fodder.
In the previous battles, the dog head suffered heavy casualties, but now it was caught in a hail of arrows. It could no longer bear the casualties and fled to the rear.
The orcs were very cruel to the deserters. The quilboars holding the line held long knives and cut the escaping kobolds in two.
The strong pressure drove the remaining kobolds crazy. They ran around and shouted.
Some smart kobolds fled to both sides, and some even chose to pretend to be dead. They were caught by the wild boar supervising the battle and brutally killed.
Richard continued to direct the soldiers to fire arrows. When the two armies were thirty meters apart, six rounds of feather arrows had been fired.
The last three rounds were the most lethal, resulting in a loss of approximately one hundred orcs.
After entering thirty meters, the minotaurs used slings one after another and threw stones.
The strength of the tauren is very strong. The strength of an ordinary adult tauren exceeds six points, which is comparable to that of a first-level human professional.
The stone bullets they threw were not weak.
Several soldiers were hit on the head by rocks, which were stained red and white like rotten watermelons.
Stones the size of fists can smash shields with powerful kinetic energy, and even armor can be dented by the stones.
Although the power of a sling is not small, it cannot compete with a strong bow or crossbow.
In long-range mutual fire, human soldiers still take advantage, and the exchange ratio is very impressive.
The next two rounds of arrow rain and crossbows caused more than a hundred casualties to the orcs.
The number of soldiers in Richard's coalition army who were hit by slings was only about thirty, which was less than half of the number of orcs.
Seeing that the distance between the two sides was less than ten meters, the soldiers in the front row could already feel the coldness of the opponent's ice blade.
Richard and Sophia cast spells at the same time with a tacit understanding, releasing the powerful greasy spell.
Generally speaking, under the standard model, the mental power invested in a magic circle is 2 points.
Sophia, in order to increase the area of the greasy spell, Richard invested four points of spiritual power in this magic.
Under the standard model, four points of spiritual power are enough to release a three-ring magic.
Although the powerful greasy spell has no lethality, the area has increased by about three times, forming a large greasy area.
Richard and Sophia joined forces to cover almost the entire front of the position.
The two magics were released, instantly breaking the balance of the battlefield.
Entering the greasy area, the wild boars in the front row fell down a lot and were attacked by human soldiers. A hail of arrows killed and injured about a hundred people.
Seeing the archer drawing his bow again and preparing to fire a volley, Bastruan roared angrily and jumped over a distance of more than ten meters with all his strength.
He held a two-handed giant ax and slashed at the waist, immediately cutting off three spears.
Although Bastruan was in mid-air, he let out a roar, which was a brutal roar of blood magic.
This spell is a second-level magic, a mass sound-killing spell.
Dozens of soldiers nearby were so frightened that they dropped their weapons when Bastruan yelled.
Bastruan brandished a long-handled double axe, and was about to slash downwards when Richard stepped forward, raised his two-handed heavy sword, and struck a fierce blow with the heavy axe!
The two heavy weapons collided together with the blessing of fighting spirit, making a thunderous collision sound.
Although Richard's strength is impressive, it is far from being able to compete with a fifth-level tauren.
Tauren are a race specializing in strength. The strength of a fifth-level tauren exceeds about 20 points. Even his father William cannot withstand a head-on fight with Bastruan.
Richard fell backward, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
But the Tauren's plan to break through the formation was blocked.
Richard could still use his strength on the ground, but Bastruan was in mid-air, but Richard hit him hard into the sky.
Before he could fall down, Sophia had already fired a magic missile.
Bastruan was still in the air when he was hit by a magic missile. He immediately flew back a few meters and fell to the open space where the grease spell was released.
Richard was knocked down by Bastruan. He struggled to stand up. Although his hands and mouth were numb, he endured the pain and released the powerful fireball technique.
The fireball flew more than ten meters away and hit Bastruan in the chest.
The fireball exploded on him in an instant, with splashing flames flying everywhere, turning Bastruan into a burning man.
This time, Richard invested ten points of spiritual power, and the power of the powerful fireball technique was almost equal to the sixth-ring magic.
The lethality of the six-ring magic is already very impressive. Melee professionals, if they do not have good enchanted equipment, generally cannot stop it.
Hit by a powerful fireball, Bastruan died on the spot.
"Killing the fifth-level tauren will reward you with 8,000 experience points."
Richard opened the properties panel and found that 13,000 experience points had been accumulated.
This battle is not over yet, and I have gained 8500 experience points.
