"Remove the poisonous needles in the three formations here, leaving only the poisonous needles in the Five Elements formation in Xiaohuludu." said the Ranger Troop Leader.
"How long does it take for the poison to take effect?" Yulin Blood Eagle asked.
"There's still half an hour!" said the Ranger Captain.
"Do we still have dwarf mines?" Yulin Blood Eagle asked.
"There are 300, which is not a lot." said the Ranger Captain.
"First bury 50 at the entrance of the big calabash belly, bury 5 at a certain distance, and bury those 5 closer together, not in a straight line."
Yu Lin Xue Ying thought for a while and said: "Let's take one as the center, four surrounding it and one meter apart from the one in the middle!
Make a good disguise so that the orcs don't see it. Move the mage team to defend nearby. If the orcs attack, let them cooperate with the mine formation and defend for a period of time to buy time for us to apply poison and insert the needle.
Don't apply the poison now to avoid wasting it. How to complete the poisoning and formation combat within the limited time that the mage fights for us, you can do whatever you want!
Don’t withdraw the formation yet, just withdraw the single needle after the poison effect wears off. The orcs have suffered losses before, so when they attack again, they will definitely be aware of the poison needle. Let’s see how they do it first.”
"If we do this, would we arrange for two squadrons of rangers to assist and protect the mages?" the ranger leader asked.
"Okay!" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
The leader of the ranger force left and went to discuss with other officers and mages how to deal with the next orc attack.
The sun was high in the sky, and it was already noon. But there was no movement from the orcs. The elves had already laid the dwarf mines, and all the iron needles on the ground had been pulled out.
The orc's quietness and unconventional behavior confused Yulin Blood Eagle, and he could not figure out the orc's thoughts for a while.
Let's wait for the poison's expiration date to pass! An hour has passed now. If the orcs had waited for the poison to expire, it would have already passed by now. If they wanted to attack, they should have attacked long ago. Why has there been no movement until now?
The feeling of not being able to guess the enemy's thoughts is really not fun at all, and the Yulin Blood Eagle also feels anxious and uneasy. The elves have been waiting for the orcs to attack, and their spirits will inevitably be in a state of high alert. This makes it easy to get tired, and
The orcs are the ones who have the initiative. They can attack at any time and rest at any time.
It's not okay to keep doing this! If the orcs keep doing this for three days and three nights, will the elves also have to live in such a nervous state for three days and three nights? What did the orcs do when they were surrounded? The first season of Yulin Blood Eagle's Memories and
The troop arrangement of the orcs at the Dance of the Beasts Gala.
That time the orcs were more tired, and their situation was more difficult. Well, it was part night patrol and part rest. Forget it! Let's follow suit!
He called the ranger officer in charge and discussed with the mage leading the team for a while, and decided to leave only some people on guard, or others to rest as well.
Just in case, Yulin Blood Eagle asked all the rangers to bring their battle pets with them and put their battle pets in armor. Anyway, all the poisonous needles on the ground have been pulled out, so there is no need to worry about them stepping on them.
In the afternoon, there was no movement from the orc troops.
Yulin Blood Eagle was still wondering if the orcs were going to attack at night. At this time, the griffin knight guards who went to detect the movements of the orcs on the border came back. They reported seeing a group of about 20 wolf cavalry, moving towards the border.
"Are the orcs asking for help from the army on the border?" He asked the griffin knight guards. These guards were all excellent officers in the past and had great combat experience. There would be no harm in asking more.
"I think so!" the Griffin Knight guard said.
"But now the orcs still have a considerable advantage over us." Yulin Blood Eagle said with a frown.
"Their goal is not us, they want to capture Proudmoore's Mirasil Port."
The Griffin Knight guard said: "Facing us, they are unwilling to use their full strength, especially they are unwilling to waste too many soul fragments. Otherwise, when they arrive at Menethil Port in Proudmoore, they will be powerless against the tall city walls.
Already.
The wetland is different from other places. There are no tall woods here for them to build large missiles, and there are not enough stones for them to use as stone bombs for attacks. They can only rely on soul fragments to summon demons to help siege the city."
Yulin Blood Eagle thought for a while and felt that what the Griffin Knight Guards said was reasonable. He then told the orcs about the abnormal behavior today and asked for the opinions of the Griffin Knight Guards.
"I think the orcs are likely to attack at night!" the Griffin Knight guard said after thinking about it.
"Why!" Yulin Blood Eagle asked.
"They must have discovered that we relied on the color of the linen to identify the passage, but they didn't understand how to identify it, so they chose to attack at night."
The Griffin Knight Prince said: "Because neither side can see the color of those strips of cloth during the battle at night, at least it will put them in a relatively equal position when fighting us. If I were the orc commander, I would definitely choose
Attack at night!"
"What you said makes sense!" Yulin Blood Eagle said with certainty: "If you were the orc commander, how would you attack?"
"It depends on the resources at hand." The Griffin Knight guard said.
"Configure it according to the relatively high magical power of the orcs!" Yulin Blood Eagle said.
The Griffin Knight bodyguard squatted down, stepped out of the general map shape on the ground, and talked to Yulin Blood Eagle about troop formation, attack and defense.
After listening for a while, Yulin Blood Eagle asked the commanders at all levels to discuss the various attack plans of the orcs and how to defend them.
As night fell, the orcs launched an attack at night.
The orcs escorted three warlocks and a shaman with hundreds of heavy shield infantry, and attacked the elven positions step by step. The orcs changed from the usual rapid charge and chaos when fighting against human armies to win, and tried to give full play to the strong individual advantages of each orc warrior.
The combat method is very similar to the tactics of the human army, but the organization and advancement plan is adopted.
The orc attacking troops entered the attack range of the elven arcane mages, and the elven arcane mages released a group attack spell - Blizzard. Diamond-shaped icicles shot out from the arms, one by one, fell from the sky towards the orc infantry phalanx of a hundred people.
The orc heavy shield soldiers erected heavy shields on the front, rear, left and right sides of the phalanx at the same time, blocking any attacks from the front, rear, left and right, while the orc heavy shield soldiers inside raised their shields towards the scales, also blocking attacks from the diamond-shaped icicles in the sky.
The heavy shields were arranged and connected with each other, protecting the orcs inside in almost all directions. The orcs' military formation reminded Yulin Blood Eagle of small moving water cubes. He sighed at the speed of learning of the orcs, and also sighed.
War is indeed the best teacher.
The blizzard magic of the elf arcane mage was countered by the orc infantry for the first time. Countless icicles hit the orc infantry square, and the icicle shield shattered into countless small pieces, and then from between the shields.
The gap slid to the ground. Due to the shield's blocking, the orc received extremely little damage.
The orc heavy infantry phalanx moved steadily towards the elves' front position with heavy steps. Hundreds of huge shields combined to form indestructible steel fortresses.
The only effect of the blizzard spell is its additional freezing effect, which only slows down the movement speed of the orcs' steel barriers.
