Amu, who was originally ordered to bring people to keep an eye on the reinforcements in the river valley, was lazily lying on a big chair to rest. When he heard that the human army was approaching, he immediately became energetic.
After all, the ogre's knowledge is a little less, and he lacks awe for Thor, a top powerhouse who is famous in the human world.
In his opinion, with the more than 3,000 elite warriors he led and twice that number of tribal warriors,
In total, there are nearly 10,000 available soldiers, as well as a large number of kobold slaves and servants.
Facing only 60,000 human coalition forces, they can be defeated easily. There is no need to be so cautious. When you come up, you should go up level A and defeat the opponent.
However, he did not dare to disobey Grugesh's order, and after arriving, he could only follow the order and form a stronghold to confront him.
But now that humans are taking the initiative to attack, it is in line with his wishes, and he must immediately mobilize his troops to fight.
This is a human initiative to attack, but it cannot be counted as Amu disobeying the order.
On the other side, Thor, who was dressed in golden armor and rode a black wildebeest, stood at the front of the team.
This first-born, one-horned war horse is a specialty of the southern swamps of the kingdom. It is said that it has a certain bloodline of Warcraft, and its strength and endurance are superior to those of the western war horses.
The only drawback is that it has a bad temper and is difficult to tame. It is not suitable for large-scale domestication and training. However, the bad temper depends on the target. Under Thor's control, this wildebeest is as docile as an ordinary young horse.
Following Thor were all knights riding high-quality war horses. There were about fifty knights in number.
These are all knights who bring their own dry food to join the army for the sake of military exploits. Quasi-knights may be a little poor, but there are basically no poor people in the knight class. Even if they do not have a title, they can usually get high rewards by accepting employment from some nobles.
,
Not only do they bring their own war horses, but they also configure their own equipment. Although they look varied at this time, they are all solid and high-quality goods.
Thor left behind the necessary knight-level officers in the army and those lords who brought their own troops to join the army. He took the rest of the knight-level masters with him directly, including Gunther who went north to join him.
As the ogres came out of camp to fight, Thor's army also stopped and took their formations.
Saul and the officers he brought did indeed have a certain way of training soldiers.
The two legions, based on the six thousand river valley garrison legions as the skeleton, were considered to be decent after only one month of training.
After Sol gave the order, they stood up in formation strictly according to the usual training, but some of the recruits' hands holding the gun barrels were still sweating nervously.
"Sir Saul, there is a letter from the Hunter family. They have arrived at the reserved location and can launch an attack at any time."
"Um"
Thor nodded,
Compared to the Northland lords who are now afraid of ogres, Thor actually sees it more clearly.
In the wilderness, three thousand ogres defeated 70,000 elite Jingbei troops. The battle shocked the north. Everyone overestimated the ogres' combat power.
But if you study the battle report carefully, you will find that although there were only three thousand ogres in that battle, their quality was terrifyingly high.
It was just a trap set up by Grugesh to attract the Jingbei Army to take the initiative to fight.
Almost all of the three thousand ogres are elites from the direct line, and a large number of ogre warriors and four chief-level ogres have been added.
If the ogres had such a high proportion of warriors and chieftain-level warriors, they would have swept across the Northland long ago.
Not to mention the last bug-level mass bloodthirsty skill of Grugesh,
The combination of so many factors caused the unprepared Jingbei Army to be defeated.
The group of ogres in front of him, from Thor's observation, the number of armored elites is about three thousand, and Grugesh must still be sitting in the camp under Piaoxue City.
Although they brought many vassal tribes with them, in terms of combat effectiveness, they were definitely not as good as the elite ogres that defeated the Jingbei Army.
That is to say, the proportion of more than 60,000 new recruits that Sol currently leads is too high.
If the nearly three legions in Sol's hands were elite legions like the Jingbei Army or the Royal Guards, he would be able to take down the ogre army in front of him without Richard's cooperation.
Unfortunately, the ogres are already in sight, and the newly formed legion has only a short training period.
…
"Forward, forward! Prepare for battle!"
"Those who retreat will die!"
Under the orders of the officers, the soldiers of the newly formed legion took the initiative to approach the swarming ogres and kobolds with neat steps.
The three-meter long spears pointed forward like a forest, giving the soldiers a little sense of security.
"boom!"
Finally the two armies collided violently,
But this time, the ogre chief Amu did not choose to rush to the front.
Although the ogre is a bit reckless and has the characteristics of being brave and not afraid of death, he is not really stupid. He will not give it away easily even if he knows that the opponent has a strong man of the earth knight level.
"kill!"
Although there was no ogre chief leading the team, these armored ogres in the front row still easily broke through the line of the human army. Even as soon as they fought, the human army wavered.
"puff!"
"Those who retreat will die!"
fine,
Thor had long expected this situation. The proportion of the Supervisory Team was relatively high. With the deterrence of the Supervisory Team, the team's commotion was temporarily suppressed and the front was stabilized. However, the Supervisory Team alone could only hold on for a while.
But it's enough to hold on for a while...
"Hurry up!"
At this time, the Hunter family's coalition forces had successfully reached behind the ogre army led by Amu, and they had gotten under the ogre's nose without being discovered.
Richard had already seen through the royal griffon that the ogres and the allied forces in the valley were engaged in battle.
At this moment, he no longer concealed his whereabouts and urged the troops to speed up.
"Lord Amu, there is a human army approaching from behind us!"
Just when Amu was watching with satisfaction that his army was gaining the upper hand in the battle, the army led by Richard appeared at the rear of the battlefield.
"What, how many people are there!"
Amu was startled when he heard this and looked back subconsciously.
"There should be thousands of people."
"call"
After hearing the number of Richard's troops, Amu was relieved. Fortunately, it was not the worst situation. Thousands of people appeared in the rear. Although it was troublesome, in Amu's opinion, it was not fatal.
"You take the reserve team and two more tribes to stop them."
"Yes, my lord"
The ogre warrior turned to gather his reserves.
On a large battlefield, it is rare for one side to directly attack all its troops. Except in extreme circumstances, some reserve troops will be left behind.
There were nearly 500 ogre elites plus more than 1,000 tribal warriors and more than 1,500 ogre warriors who came to stop Richard, which was equivalent to more than one-fifth of his total force.
Generally speaking, these more than a thousand ogre warriors can defeat at least half a legion of human troops.
Now used to deal with Richard, who only had one flag regiment, it can be said that Amu overestimated this sudden appearance of the human army.
It's a pity that the flag regiment's army he encountered was obviously not a normal human army...
