Because of the arrival of the human army, the surrounding wild beasts have dispersed for an unknown number of miles. Not to mention the wild beasts, not even the chirping of insects can be heard. The only sounds in the military camp are the footsteps of patrols passing by and the burning of bonfires in the camp.
The crackling sound.
"General Resado, the human camp is just ahead."
In the dark night, a small orc army approached the human camp with a bonfire burning through a faint gleam of light.
Because they were extremely familiar with the terrain, the small orc army led by Resado actually made a circle in the dark, avoiding the Fourth Legion's brigade and approaching the camp where the senior human commanders were detected by the scouts.
"The defense is so weak. It's really a blessing from our ancestors."
Resado looked out from the gap in the forest, glanced at several campfires, and roughly confirmed that the number of troops in the camp was definitely no more than two thousand.
With the same number, the orcs still have a certain advantage in combat power. Even though this human army is a little different, it still has the advantage of raiding at night. The success rate of this vote seems to be not low.
"Order the army to approach slowly and not make any noise!"
"Yes, General!"
Resado lowered his voice and gave instructions to the orc officers on both sides, and the entire orc army began to get closer and closer to the human camp in front.
…
North Route Army Military Center
Richard didn't know that he had become the target of Lesado, the leader of the Orc Banner, and he summoned several senior officers to discuss the next battle around a bonfire.
"General Gru has basically opened up the way forward. According to the current situation, the orcs will have no choice but to evacuate in two days at most. We will soon reach the orcs' largest stronghold in the dense forest."
"The orcs' village in Yandong Mountain is no better than other wooden villages. It is the last barrier from the northern dense forest to the eastern plateau. The entire village is built against Yandong Mountain. There are many natural caves for hiding soldiers on the mountain. I'm afraid there are no others like that.
The village is so easy to take down."
"However, Yandong Mountain is full of big rocks, but there are no big trees to cover it. It is easier for the army to move away. At worst, if we besiege it several times, we are afraid that we will not be able to defeat Yandong Mountain."
"I don't think the orcs will defend Yandong Mountain. Although the village in Yandong Mountain is not like Langshou Village, and the giant wooden village can be burned easily by dragon breath, it also doesn't have that many big trees to cover it. If the orcs dare to fight us in Yandong Mountain, the giant village will be destroyed."
The dragon can directly join the battle, and the orcs have absolutely no chance of winning."
Yandong Mountain is a stone mountain, and the terrain is not steep enough, nor is it covered by dense trees. It is the most conducive place for the army to deploy during this march. Although the orcs have been operating for so long, they have somewhat advantaged the location, but the army on the North Route is definitely
In the face of the military superiority, this geographical advantage is completely insufficient.
If the orcs dare to set up a decisive battle in Cave Mountain, they will be in line with Richard's wishes. Not only the dragon phantom shooters can take turns in the battle, but also magic mages, djinns, snake demons and other types of troops that are not easy to use in the forest.
You can also take turns to go into battle and set up a battle formation. With the current strength of the Northern Route Army, a hundred thousand orcs army is not enough.
"Nothing, no matter whether the main force of the orcs sticks to Cave Mountain, or they continue to be mice in the woods like these orcs now, we have a way to deal with it."
"Haha, in the next round, let the sons of our army also cooperate with General Gru in the battle, and follow General Gru to drive away the rats in the forest."
After having stable logistical support, the generals of the Northern Route Army became more confident, the atmosphere of military discussions became more lively, and they were less afraid of the orcs.
"Alright, let's go back and rest early. Tomorrow, the First Army will take a rotation and rest, and let the Second Army go to support the task force. The Third Army and the Fourth Army will be ready in the next two days, regardless of whether the orcs defend the cave or not.
Mountains must be prepared for attack."
"Yes, sir!"
"kill!"
"Roar! Kill!"
"kill!"
Just as the generals at all levels were preparing to return to camp, the nearby forest suddenly burst into flames, and dense light spots flashed from the dark forest. They should be torches lit by orc warriors. A large group of orc warriors suddenly appeared in the forest and headed toward them.
They rushed toward the camp where Richard was located. They were already very close to the camp.
Resado knew that he would definitely be discovered if he continued to advance, so he might as well take advantage of this moment to light torches and launch a charge to attack the human camp at a faster speed, so he directly ordered the entire army to light torches to illuminate the road and launch an attack directly.
"Enemy attack!"
"Qiang!"
"Protect Lord Richard!"
Suddenly attacked, the number of enemies was unknown, the generals of the North Route Army were slightly panicked, but they quickly realized that all officers in this era were capable of fighting. In addition to the system heroes led by Richard, some of the others gathered here
The North Route Army General was at least a knight-level expert, and several army commanders were even more knight-level experts. They quickly drew their weapons and surrounded Richard with their soldiers.
"Why are there orcs here?"
"It's okay, there can't be too many orcs in this location."
After everyone surrounded Richard, they calmed down. This place is located in the middle and rear of the army. There is a task force led by Gru in front to clear the way. The orcs who come here to attack will definitely not be able to take the main road. They can only rely on their familiarity with the terrain and the small path.
Come.
"The Fifth Flag Regiment of our army is nearby and can arrive in less than half an hour. Now that the orcs are making so much noise, they must have alerted the Fifth Flag Regiment. As long as we hold on for a moment, reinforcements will arrive immediately."
"I was a little careless this time. There were too few troops here, and the orcs actually took the opportunity."
"The giant dragon is not here at this time, otherwise the orcs would not dare to be so rampant."
"We should deploy a flag regiment to protect us at all times."
"Um."
Richard pressed the Vulcan Sword and was surrounded by a group of generals. Listening to them discuss the pros and cons, he said a somewhat noncommittal "hmm". There was no panic expression on his face. Instead, the generals around him understood that he was calm in the face of danger.
A landslide and a fearless demeanor.
But in his heart, Richard is really not afraid at all. He just doesn't want to offend everyone's good intentions by being protected in a crowd. Otherwise, with his sky-level strength, even if there is nothing he can do, as long as there are no orcs who are as strong as him.
If someone is entangled, it will be easy for him to leave.
Moreover, although the formation of his march and the arrangement of the camp seemed to have some flaws, and the garrison strength left around him was insufficient, it also depends on who he kept around him.
There are more than 200 crusaders at the peak of the knight level alone, as well as more than 500 halberdiers with quasi-knight strength, more than 500 centaur elites who have been held in their hands and not used, and higher-level ones.
Champion knights, superb swordsmen, archangels, archangels and other ruthless characters.
Although the more than thirty champion knights could not display their power in the forest, it was just that their combat power could not be fully displayed. Even if the champion knights were dismounted, they still had earth-level combat power, not to mention the gods, monsters, and magic masters.
Mage, Snake, these are the troops of the tower forces.
In fact, the power around Richard only looks weak. If a big fight breaks out, they can easily overthrow an entire army. Richard has nothing to worry about...
…
the other side.
The orc general Qilwei felt more and more powerless about the development of the war. He no longer looked as high-spirited as when he took over the task from the commander of the Adlu Army. His eyes were bloodshot and his eye sockets were sunken.
At a glance, it was obvious that he had not slept well for several days at least.
It was just that there was a little bit of hope a few days ago, but now, after receiving the news from Resado, he was completely desperate. It turned out that all his plans were like clowns, and the flaws he discovered were not flaws at all.
.
"Lord Qilwe?"
Seeing Qilwei suddenly stunned for a long time without responding, the soldier who sent the message gave two tentative shouts.
"Um?"
"Lord Lesado also asked me to tell you that he has found another flaw in the human army. He will launch a night attack tonight. Regardless of success or failure, you don't have to wait for him."
"Night attack?"
"This guy is going to die!"
In fact, regardless of success or failure, Resado's trip does not have much chance of returning. He is surrounded by the Northern Route Army Brigade. Even if he succeeds, he will not be able to escape. What's more, Chilwei originally had a negative attitude towards whether he could succeed.
.
However, after listening to the soldier who sent the message, Chierwei was aroused by Resado's actions. He glanced at the direction of the Northern Route Army and immediately turned around and ordered to his men:
"Deploy some more traps, bring the food and grass in the secret warehouse, and prepare to retreat!"
