The soldiers of the Jingbei Army fought fiercely with the ogres. From time to time, rays of fighting spirit erupted on the battlefield. It was the knights of the Jingbei Army and the ogre warriors who had a fierce collision.
As the second and third legions joined the battle one after another, even though the ogres once again supported nearly a thousand ogre warriors, they were still completely suppressed.
Although the casualties of the soldiers on the human side were greater, the Jingbei Army was resilient enough, and with victory in sight, the morale of the soldiers on the human side was quite high.
Wei Lu, who was leading the Jingbei Army cavalry, was also eager to try. In Wei Lu's view, the battle was almost over. If he didn't attack now, he might not be able to get the last bit of military merit if it was later.
Weilu kept asking Marquis Wade to attack through flags. As long as Marquis Wade agreed to Weilu's request, the Jingbei Army cavalry, led by Weilu, would charge like thunder to give the ogres the last chance.
One blow, completely ending the battle.
However, Marquis Wade never paid attention to Weilu's request to attack. Weilu could only hold back the urge to charge if he wanted to launch an attack.
Marquis Wade controlled the battlefield situation from a distance. Although the proportion of ogre warriors in this ogre tribe was a bit abnormal, the overall situation was still under control.
However, he was a little uneasy about the disappearance, and Lin Xuan's words when he set off for the expedition echoed in his mind.
Beasts all have a basic desire to survive and know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Ogres are considered intelligent creatures after all, so why would they do such a thing as to commit suicide?
Because there was always some worry in his heart, Marquis Wade firmly held Weiru down, and the five thousand cavalry remained silent and were used as an important reserve force.
…
The tents of the ogre camp are hung with various bone decorations, ranging from beasts such as bears and wolves to large herbivorous animals such as bison and argali, and even human heads wearing helmets.
People are afraid.
At this time, there were dozens of strong ogres sitting densely in the tent. Judging from the still intact armor on their bodies and the shiny metallic weapons at their hands, they were probably all powerful ogre warriors or above.
The ogres sitting here seemed not to care about the situation on the battlefield outside, and they all looked up respectfully.
At the top of the camp stood four ogres who looked stronger. If the strength of the ogre warriors requires careful observation to tell the difference between them and ordinary ogres,
As long as the four ogres standing on the main hall appear in the eyes of the Jingbei Army's scouts, they will be focused on. They are three meters tall and can be said to be extremely conspicuous among a group of ogres that are more than two meters tall.
The whole body metal protective gear is rare among ogres. It is almost certain that they are all chief-level ogres, corresponding to the great knights among humans. Each of them should belong to a large ogre tribe.
The leader was right. Four people appeared in the tent at the same time.
However, compared to the respectful ogre warriors below, these four ogre chiefs seemed a little anxious.
"Master Priest, the warriors are almost overwhelmed, why don't we attack?"
"Brother, if we wait any longer, our warriors may really be defeated."
"What a bunch of rubbish."
There was clearly only one ogre sitting on the big chair on the high platform, but two voices came out strangely.
If you look closely, you will see that this thin ogre actually has two heads on its neck, and it is obvious that these two heads have different consciousnesses and can carry out dialogue.
His body size is not huge, and he is even a little thin compared to ogres. He is comparable to ordinary humans. His skin is not the rough and disgusting light green, but smooth and tinged with blue.
"It's a pity that the cavalry never charged up."
Obviously, the previous show of weakness was to attract more Jingbei troops. If so many ogre warriors and four ogre chiefs had been released from the beginning, even an idiot like Marquis Wade would have realized something was wrong.
If the Jingbei Army retreats and forms a stronghold to defend the city, with the ogre's siege capabilities, it will be terrifying for a while and it will be difficult to attack the castle where the Jingbei Army is stationed.
There are hundreds of ogre tribes in the entire wilderness, ranging from thousands of ogres to one tribe, usually with a high knight-level ogre chief.
As small as one or two hundred ogres form a tribe, they may not even have a single ogre warrior.
Originally, no matter the big tribe or the small tribe, they basically lived their own lives. There was no one who listened to whom, and there were even occasional conflicts between the big tribes.
Fortunately, the ogre has always been in such a state of disunity.
Otherwise, if more than 100,000 ogres in the wilderness unified their orders, it would definitely be enough for the nobles of the North to drink from it.
But now the situation has changed. In the ancient belief of ogres, the two-headed ogre priest, the representative of the ancestor god in the material world, has appeared.
This two-headed ogre, who was born with extraordinary intelligence, hid under the protection of a large tribe for several years. During this period, he also used his special appearance to conquer several large ogre tribes.
This operation against the Jingbei Army was planned by him. In his opinion, human beings are the biggest enemies of the ogres, and the Jingbei Army is the first enemy he wants to defeat. While he is not exposed, the two-headed ogre
The demon priest dug a huge trap for the Jingbei Army.
The two-headed ogre priest stood up from his chair after making up his mind.
"Launch an attack, warriors, defeat the humans on the opposite side and take back the land that belongs to us!"
This is true. The territory that is now occupied by the Northland lords was also the area where the ogres moved.
It's just that ogres in the nomadic stage don't actually have the concept of territory. This concept is considered new to the two-headed priest.
But they do understand launching an attack to defeat humans.
After the two-headed ogre priest issued the attack call, they all shouted and walked out of the camp and no longer hid.
Four ogre chiefs protected the two-headed ogre priests and launched a wave of attacks with more than 50 ogre warriors and all the remaining ogre warriors and kobolds.
Naturally, such a big movement on the Ogre side cannot escape the observation of the Jingbei Army.
