As Caroline sang attentively, streaks of frost energy began to surge under the ground, and countless cracks revealed icy cold light, as if there were thousands of ice warriors ready to attack. In the densest area of the two armies' front line, the ice broke through the ground
It came out with a huge sound of breaking the ground and instantly pierced the bodies of hundreds of green-skinned orcs.
The ice even froze the blood, and a biting cold wind appeared on the hot-blooded battlefield. With powerful frost energy, countless ice cubes gathered together, forming a wall of ice that stretched for miles, and the green-skinned orcs were
Completely isolated from reinforcements from the north!
"retreat!"
On the back of the bear, Rhodes shouted loudly.
The northern coalition forces began to retreat in an orderly manner. According to the pre-war tactical arrangements, this was a guerrilla war, not a decisive battle. Even if the entire Kislev devoted all its efforts, it would not be able to resist the iron-clad army, let alone now it was just
Half of the troops in the northern border. The numerical gap made this battle impossible to win. Even after being attacked by surprise, when the green-skinned troops turned their heads to deal with the human troops, the human reinforcements still felt endless pressure. The number of orcs was almost
It is more than twenty times that of human reinforcements.
A dense army of orcs and goblins with no end as far as the eye can see swarmed in. If they continue to fight, the whole army will be annihilated. When Rhodes gave the order, all the soldiers in the army immediately carried out the order. Even the dwarf army, which hated the greenskin the most, was bitten.
Ya chose to retreat. They knew that if they continued to fight, they would die here meaninglessly.
On the front line, there were reinforcements from the North that were constantly retreating. In the back, Caroline continued to release her frost magic. Layers of ice froze the green skins, covering the retreat of the Northern Allied forces.
Hoo…ho…ho…
Grimgor Ironhide roared loudly and angrily, and the world seemed to echo with the orc's violent roar. He waved the huge Gisnik battle ax, and Ironhide shattered the ice in front of him again and again.
, ice shards splashed in front of him. However, every time a piece of ice was broken, more ice stood in front of him. He roared loudly, anger surged in his body, looking at the only opponent worth challenging - the white bear.
The king is getting farther and farther away from him, but he can't catch up. Grimgor Ironhide has never been so angry as now.
The undead personal guards followed him around, smashing these annoying ice walls together.
However, Caroline kept chanting spells, and snowflakes and broken ice were flying between the sky and the earth. This feeling reminded Ironhide of the blizzard he encountered on the outskirts of Kislev. Is this country all about ice and snow?
Rimg roared, his anger was like a heavy punch hitting cotton, he was very unhappy, unhappy...
Roar……
He roared again, and Gisnik was lifted high. At this moment, the bloody battle ax reflected the red light of the sun. In his fury, Gisnik struck the ice wall with his axe. This blow brought with it
The endless anger of the black orc leader smashed a deep crack into the entire frost wall!
The power was transmitted throughout the ice wall, and in an instant, the tall ice wall collapsed in front of the Black Orc King Ironhide!
Like an avalanche, broken ice fell in front of the greenskin army.
Hoo…ho…ho…
At this moment, all the orcs were boiling. They roared collectively and rushed towards the human reinforcements. However, the large troops of Blackhammer Castle and Heidelberg had completed their evacuation. The dwarf troops of Ironforge and Dulong City had also completed their evacuation.
Before the war, Rhodes was worried about the speed of these dwarves more than once, but now it seems that they are just a little slower than humans.
"Stop casting, my dear, withdraw!"
Rhodes, covered in blood, rode a war bear and ran to Caroline and said hurriedly.
Soon, the Frost Witch Lord rode his war horse and retreated together.
The greenskins exited the Watch Keep like a tide, roaring and killing into the distance. The people in the Watch Keep were excited. They finally defended the castle and defended this last line of defense.
"Rhodes! King of Thunder! Son of the Bear God!"
The people and soldiers shouted Rhode's name. For the people of Fort Watch, the name Rhode is worth remembering forever. It was Lord White Bear who saved them. It was Lord White Bear who led the reinforcements and rushed into the battlefield regardless of danger to save them.
They were killed. No one knew what happened outside. They had no aircraft, no giant eagles, no griffins, and could not see the outside world at all. The entire outer city of Watch Fortress had been reduced to ruins.
When the tide of greenskins evacuated the castle, people saw corpses strewn all over the place, and houses that had been burned to only their frames. The towers were scorched black by the fire, and the streets were covered with collapsed houses.
There is no doubt that Watchfort has been saved, but the future reconstruction work has a long way to go. There is no way to restore it to its original state within five or six years, and it is estimated that it will take at least ten years to restore its strength. After all, half of the
people died in this greenskin invasion.
…
"Lead them to the forest!"
Outside the Watch Fortress, Rhodes rode a giant bear and loudly directed the march of the troops. Although the equipment and clothing were different, under the leadership of their respective lords and leaders, the troops retreated in an orderly manner.
Rhodes knew that the longer the battle line was, the more beneficial it would be to the human coalition. The greenskins only wanted to fight. This was their racial nature. Just like humans are obsessed with power and wealth, orcs have an innate talent for war and destruction.
Obsession and fanaticism. They have come all the way from the dark land of the south for the purpose of war and to find opponents worth fighting.
They are extremely fanatical, and their charge will inevitably be scattered and unorganized. The strong orcs will rush in front, while the weak goblins will fall behind. Using this time gap, they can concentrate their superior forces and annihilate a small group of greenskins.
Wait for the large army to arrive and then continue to retreat. Withdraw all the way and fight all the way. Only then can this huge army be held back.
Although this process will be difficult, Rhodes has made up his mind to lure the greenskins out of the north. Otherwise, the ironskins will not be able to go south to the city of Kislev, and he will come back before long.
The three thousand troops were marching in an orderly manner. At the same time, in the forest, the "Black Hammer Castle Engineering Team" had dug fortifications and traps in advance, waiting for the enemy to follow.
Without advantages in numbers and equipment, we can only deal with the enemy through careful arrangements. In the pre-war meeting, we formulated a series of deployments and several sets of alternative plans. Now it seems that we are really well prepared.
When the large army withdrew to the forest, Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief. The only thing that was not as expected was that it took a lot of time on the frontal battlefield, so that it was close to night when the army withdrew to the forest. This was not suitable for an ambush battle.
It is very disadvantageous, because Rhodes cannot guarantee that there are no night goblins in Ironhide's army. Once these little things appear as a reconnaissance force, then every move of the Northern Alliance Army will be exposed under Ironhide's eyes.
