Chapter four hundred and fortieth battle situation on the southern front
South line of Longxiguan, Nanwangcheng.
This corresponds to the Iron Spear City in the south of the Orc King's Capital. After leaving Longxing Pass, it is also a flat terrain. Although it is still some distance from the Orc King's Capital Monaya, because it is convenient to send troops from here, in humans
When there is still the power to take the initiative to attack, Nanwang City has always been one of the starting points of the human army. The army starts from here and attacks the Iron Spear City of the orcs, and then goes north to threaten Watch City in the middle line, and then threatens the orc capital Monaya. Therefore,
The orcs in this area have built a large number of castles with Iron Spear City as the center, and they have been defended by large armies for a long time. From the perspective of the battle situation, Iron Spear City on the southern line and Watch City on the middle line are in the relationship of each other's horns, and their positions are very important.
…
The Black Mountain Castle of the Orcs is one of the military castles surrounding Iron Spear City. The name of the castle is derived from the surrounding black rocks. It is not known what special ingredients are in the nearby land and stones. The surface is like ink.
Generally black, Black Mountain Castle is built on this black land.
Black Mountain Fort corresponds to the southern line of Longxing Pass in the Golden Dragon Kingdom. The terrain is higher than the city wall of Longxing Pass. The troops coming from Longxing Pass will usually be easily discovered far away.
Black Mountain Fort is a protruding point of the orcs on the entire southern front. There is a city stationed in it for a long time. Five hundred orc warriors are stationed there, led by a commander at the peak of the warrior level and five orc centenarians who have just entered the warrior level.
The mission is to monitor the humans on the southern line. If any movement is found on the humans, they must report it to the big city behind in time.
The Black Mountain fortress wall is six meters high. It is not large but has complete facilities. There is also a large amount of supplies in the fort. If it is surrounded and defended for three to five months, it will not be a problem. In addition, the individual capabilities of the orcs are inherently stronger than human soldiers.
Several times higher, such a Black Mountain fortress garrisoned by 500 orcs can withstand an onslaught of humans from a flag regiment.
At this time, the orc warriors on the city tower were looking boredly in the direction of Longxiang Pass. This is the most important task of every orc warrior guarding Black Mountain Fort. They are the outpost of the entire Iron Spear City defense line.
It's just that at this time, the sun is just right, and it's really good for people to sleep when it's shining on them, and the orc warrior is no exception. Under the soft autumn sunshine, this orc warrior looked at the monotonous scenery outside Black Mountain Castle, and his eyes began to close.
As soon as he opened his eyes, his head was slightly pressed against the pole of his axe, and he wanted to squint and take a nap. He couldn't blame this orc soldier for being slack. In fact, the humans on the southern front had not launched an active attack for a long time.
It was all the orcs who were attacking. In his mind, humans were just cowards who only dared to huddle behind the city wall of Longxing Pass. How could they dare to take the initiative to attack them? It wouldn't hurt to take a break now.
With this thought, the orc soldier gradually stopped raising his eyelids and just closed his eyelids, preparing to take a nice nap...
"Soldier! What are you doing!"
At this moment, a sudden loud shout came from his ears, frightening the dozing orc warrior to suddenly stand upright, and all his sleepiness disappeared.
"Du, Du Tong, your lord."
The person who came to him was the supreme commander of the five hundred orcs in Black Mountain Fort. The orcs in Black Mountain Fort were all conscientious officers. Although there had never been a war in which humans actively attacked on the southern front for decades,
He still patrolled the city wall every day very conscientiously. Today, he caught a lax soldier as soon as he came up and had to teach him a lesson.
"You are so brave to sleep on the observation post. If humans attack at this time, our fort fails to send a signal in time because you took a nap. Can you bear the responsibility?"
"I'll go down and receive ten whips later as a punishment."
The orc soldier did not speak. He only lowered his head and did not dare to look at the orc officer who was lecturing. The orc commander of Black Mountain Castle continued to himself and said:
"What, are you not convinced? Do you think that humans have not attacked in decades and do not need to be so focused on vigilance? We could even withdraw from Black Mountain Castle because humans would not dare to attack anyway?"
"What is a battlefield? A battlefield is a place where any accident is likely to happen. You think that humans will not dare to attack for decades, but maybe humans will appear in the next second, just when you are taking a nap...
"
"What are you looking at?"
The orc commander was training, but he noticed that something was wrong with the other person's eyes. At first, he was still timid and did not dare to look at himself, but now his eyes were wide open and he was looking at him with horror on his face.
Are you so frightened after being lectured by me for a few words? Looking at the exaggerated expression of the other party, the orc commander was a little confused and even stopped lecturing him.
No, he was not looking at me. After careful observation, the orc commander discovered that it was not him who frightened the deserting soldier. He was looking behind him...
After realizing this situation, the orc commander had faintly heard the roaring sound coming from behind. It was the sound of human war horses running. There should be quite a lot of these sounds.
The orc commander immediately turned his head, and then his expression was not much better than that of the orc warrior just now.
The human army appeared at the farthest end of the horizon. From the perspective of Black Mountain Fort, the long black line seemed to have no border. Densely packed human soldiers were pouring towards Black Mountain Fort. One hundred thousand or two
One hundred thousand, or five hundred thousand...
The orc commander could not tell the number of human troops at this time, but he still made the most correct response with the greatest strength!
"Give the signal!"
"Humanity attacks!"
"Ready to fight!!"
…
"boom!"
"boom!"
"kill!"
Human soldiers pouring in from the end of the horizon soon surrounded the entire Black Mountain Fort. A large number of human soldiers carried ladders and various siege equipment and began to attack.
Because Black Mountain Fort is not far from Nanwang City, and the terrain in the middle is relatively flat. The army that left the customs even brought siege equipment built in Nanwang City. The orcs of Black Mountain Fort were stunned as soon as they came up. The well was equipped with a ladder.
and shield vehicles, besieged from all sides with absolute superiority, and the second wave of charging troops established a firm foothold on Black Mountain Fort.
At this time, the brilliance of fighting spirit continued to appear on the city wall, and at least a dozen knight-level humans rushed to Black Mountain Castle.
Now on the city wall, an orc warrior has to face the siege of at least four or five human soldiers. In this battle, the human army directly mixed the knights into the first batch of troops to climb the city, opening multiple gaps on the wall. Before waiting,
When the orcs reacted, a large number of human soldiers had already poured into Black Mountain Castle, completely suppressing the orcs' power.
"kill!"
"boom!"
The orc commander at the peak of the samurai rank was still resisting, and with his bodyguards around him, he wanted to drive away the incoming human soldiers. He just knocked down a human soldier with one blow of his axe, and he and his bodyguards quickly
A section of the city wall was cleared, and it seemed to have some effect.
But soon, someone stopped him in his tracks.
"clang!"
The orc commander's ax was firmly caught by a long knife. This kind of long knife is a very unfamiliar weapon in the eyes of the orc commander. The human soldiers in Longxing Pass are more accustomed to using heavy swords or spears.
As for weapons, only the army in the Western Region likes to use long knives of this style.
"drink!"
The back of the long knife is broad, but it is not considered a heavy weapon. It should not be able to suppress the battle ax in the hand of the orc commander, but this long knife cut down firmly on the orc commander's axe. The orc commander
The officer yelled and tried to raise the weapon, but the long knife pressing against the battle ax did not move at all. The next second, the orc commander felt a pain in his chest and flew backwards. The human opposite was suppressing him.
He kicked him out hard with his battle axe.
"Protect the Governor!"
The surrounding soldiers watched the orc commander fly backwards, and they all rushed to rescue them, but more human soldiers rushed up to stop them, and the human masters on the opposite side strode up, and before they could all stand up,
Then he made up for it with a knife, and the tip of the knife with fighting spirit broke through the breastplate of the orc commander without any suspense. Then the whole long knife was stabbed to the bottom and then stirred horizontally. The orc commander stared at the killer with wide eyes.
The human master who killed him struggled to raise his hand to grab something, but in the end he dropped it without any strength.
"Kill all these orcs!"
"Yes, Lord Legion Commander!"
The human master on the city wall is a legion commander of the Western Army. He is a master at the peak of the Great Knight. He is a whole level better than the orc commander of Black Mountain Castle. This gap is not something that the orcs can make up for with their physical advantages.
The opponent was finished in a few strokes.
Once the orc commander of Black Mountain Castle died, there was no longer any decent resistance in the entire castle, and the battle was basically over before it got dark in the afternoon.
Although the entire orc army in the castle resisted vigorously, the attackers included a total of 500,000 people from the southern army, of which 300,000 were elite troops from the west. There was even a legion commander at the peak of the Great Knight who personally participated in the attack. Black Mountain Castle was so fast.
The collapse of is also being cleaned up.
Under the setting sun, the soldiers of the Southern Route Army began to clean up the Black Mountain Fort, obviously preparing to garrison here. Of course, a castle like Black Mountain Fort could even be stationed with a thousand people, and the army outside was still heading north.
The orc military forts on this front line will probably suffer.
…
"Your Excellency, before we attacked the city, black smoke started rising from the castle. I'm afraid the orcs behind us are already somewhat prepared."
"Nothing, they can't prepare anything in a few days. So many of us have left Nanwang City. As long as the orcs are not fools, they will find out sooner or later. We can march as planned."
"Adil, how are you? How do you feel after fighting this battle?"
"Orcs are harder to kill than the group of lizardmen in our western desert."
"Hahahaha, if the orcs were like those lizard men in the desert, there would be no need for us to come here."
"How are you, are you scared?"
"No, Lord Duke, I think it's much more interesting than fighting the lizard men."
Adil was the legion commander who just led the army to Black Mountain Fort. Originally, there was no need for a legion commander to participate in this battle, but he was born in the Western Region and had no record of fighting against orcs, so he took the initiative to lead his team to attack Black Mountain Fort to verify it.
The strength of the orcs. Judging from his serious and excited expression at this time, it was obvious that the orcs' combat power had given him a big surprise.
"Okay, since Adil is interested, then you will be the vanguard. No orc military forts will be left on the road, and I will arrive at the orc Iron Spear City within five days!"
