"Master Flag Captain! The scout team discovered a human army approaching Dragon Scale Castle in the northern dense forest!"
The northern dense forest is quite large, with dense vegetation and complex terrain. In addition, the legions brought by Sean are not familiar with the terrain. Even if there are five thousand people hiding in the mountain stream very close to Dragonscale Castle, it will not be easy to find them.
But hiding in a mountain stream is one thing, coming out to take action is another. Five thousand people were marching in the woods, but they were still approaching Dragon Scale Castle. In less than half a day, the orc scouts noticed it.
He quickly reported it to the current defenders of Dragon Scale Castle.
"How many of them are there?"
After hearing that a human army suddenly appeared in the northern dense forest and approached Dragon Scale Castle, the orc commander showed a surprised expression. In his understanding, the main human force had already evacuated Dragon Scale Castle and retreated to Dragon Wing City.
, there should be no human army nearby.
"The number is unclear, but it should not be much, no more than one legion."
It is difficult to judge the strength of an army marching in the forest. Even professional scouts can hardly determine the number of enemy troops through simple inspection. The orc scout team is already quite professional, at least judging
The number of troops led by Elena was not large.
"Less than a legion?"
The leader of the Orc Flag Guard stationed at Dragon Scale Castle breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this number and felt a little more relaxed. After Sean captured Dragon Scale Castle, he also attached great importance to Dragon Scale Castle and left a force of 5,000 people.
The flag regiment was stationed, and a thousand-man wolf cavalry brigade was also dispatched. The orcs' combat power was already higher than that of the human army. If they were still in a defensive position, this advantage would be amplified.
A solid fortress garrisoned by orcs. The human army either has an absolute numerical advantage of more than ten times, or dragon knights participate in the attack. Otherwise, it will be difficult to break through the city. Normally, it is impossible for a legion of humans to take down Dragon Scale Castle.
of.
"What did the scouts do before that they missed so many human troops in the northern dense forest? How much trouble would they cause us if they directly attacked the food road?"
"It was the scout battalion's mistake! It's just that the dense forests in the north are too big and we are not familiar with the terrain..."
"Don't make excuses. Fortunately, no major problems occurred. I'll record this mistake for you first. Now hurry up and find out the specific number and direction of the human army, and then send someone to report the situation here to Longyi City."
"Yes, Lord Flag Commander!"
"Where's General Walls?"
"Your Majesty, General Walls received a report from patrolling wolf cavalry this morning and found a group of human knights nearby. He personally led the main force of wolf cavalry to eliminate them."
"This guy…"
The leader of the Orc Banner shook his head, a little helpless. There was a lot of movement of the wolf cavalry leaving the city. He knew that the wolf cavalry was taking action, but he did not expect that Walls, the leader of the wolf cavalry, would personally leave the city with the main force.
Notify him.
Here, Sean actually made a small mistake. When he sent this wolf cavalry to support the garrison of Dragon Scale Castle, he did not clarify the primary and secondary relationship between the two teams.
It stands to reason that the commander of the flag regiment stationed at Dragonscale Castle has 5,000 soldiers, and his status should be higher than that of the wolf cavalry commander. However, the status of the wolf cavalry in the Orc Kingdom is higher, and they are usually a little arrogant. Although they are
They were ordered to come to support the defenders of Dragon Scale Castle, but they did not take the commander of Dragon Scale Castle so seriously. They even took hundreds of people with them without even reporting to the commander of the flag regiment for fighting out of the city.
The Wolf Cavalry left the city. Of course, it could also be that the patrolling cavalry heard that the number of enemy cavalry found was only a few dozen. Walls didn't take it seriously and just thought it was to vent his depression at being transferred from the main battlefield.
That’s all.
The leader of the flag regiment heard that most of the wolf cavalry had been taken out of the city to fight by Walls. Apart from being a little helpless, he was not particularly worried. Everyone knew that the most capable cavalry in human beings were still on the main battlefield in the center line.
According to the intelligence, there are no human cavalry on the northern front that can threaten the more than a thousand wolf cavalry. Maybe Walls will bring him a surprise when he takes the wolf cavalry out to fight.
After thinking about it, the leader of the Orc Banner also turned his attention back to Dragonscale Castle itself and ordered:
"Order the entire army to be on alert and not to take it lightly. We have been hoarding food and grass for the army for more than ten days. If something goes wrong, we will all be guilty!"
"Yes, Lord Flag Commander!"
…
About ten miles southwest of Dragon Scale Castle, a large group of wolf cavalry is galloping wantonly. The size of these giant wolves is no less than that of ordinary war horses, only slightly smaller than the horses of the Western Region, but they are also of the same size, plus their carnivores.
Due to their ferocious nature, they can easily suppress the Longxingguan cavalry most of the time. Only the Western Cavalry can slightly compete with them due to their numerical advantage.
"Lord Walls, look at those human cavalry."
Looking in the direction pointed by a wolf cavalry captain, there seemed to be a dissatisfied centurion cavalry team, and some of the horses didn't even have knights.
"A knight with two horses?"
"Lord Walls, some of the horses have one horn. They seem to be the one-horned horses mentioned by the defeated soldiers before!"
The terrifying legend of the unicorn sacred beast was naturally spread to the officers of the Wolf Cavalry through the mouths of the defeated soldiers. At this time, two or three miles away, they were actually shocked to see the real existence of the unicorn in the mouths of the defeated soldiers.
But Walls said nonchalantly:
"Those unicorns, no matter how strong they are, are just a group of horses. There is not even a knight on the horse. How effective can they be in combat? There is no way to use those defeated troops. Let's make up a story about the terrifying unicorns.
"
Having said that, the orc commander Walls no longer hesitated and immediately ordered:
"Order the fourth and fifth teams to detour from the south and block the southward path of this human knights. The sixth team will circle to their right flank. The rest will join me in pressing from the front and approaching at normal speed.
!”
"Yes, Lord Walls!"
Although Walls acts a little impulsively, he will not fight an uncertain battle, and his ability to command troops is not weak. No matter how arrogant he is, he can still observe that the human cavalry on the opposite side are not easy to deal with.
The armor shone brightly in the sun, with no part of it exposed except the eyes, and even the tall war horses were completely protected under the armor.
Such equipment cannot be equipped by ordinary cavalry. It looks like another formation of the human army, a knighthood composed entirely of knight-level experts.
More than thirty human knights are considered valuable targets in the eyes of Walls, otherwise he would not personally lead the team to attack, and he also directly brought almost all the wolf cavalry to ensure nothing goes wrong.
Although a team of more than thirty human knights is not easy to mess with, the more than a thousand wolf cavalry are also elites who have been fighting for a long time. There are also more than double digits of warrior-level experts and two great warrior-level experts in the team.
It is quite possible to annihilate this group of human knights.
The two squads in the southwest were to seal off the direction that humans could not escape in advance, and the squad on the right wing was to make a detour and try to encircle the main team, the human knights.
It's just that although the leader of this wolf cavalry, Walls, was clear-headed and his command was qualified, he never imagined what kind of existence he would encounter on his own initiative.
"Mrak, does this orc treat us as soft persimmons?"
The human knights discovered by Walls were none other than Sir M'rak, Taris and others who were leading an army to join Elena in taking down Dragonscale Castle.
Sir M'Lak's speed bonus was maximized, and he brought with him faster high-level units or flying units. In less than a day, he detoured the distance that other armies would take several days to cover. When they arrived at Dragon Scale
When we were near the fort, the flag regiment that was closer was not yet in place.
After they arrived at Dragonscale Castle, they did not deliberately hide their whereabouts. They were quickly discovered by the patrolling wolf cavalry accepted by Walls. Only then did Walls take the initiative to lead his wolf cavalry to eliminate them.
"If I don't let the Griffin Knight and the Silver Pegasus Knight leave the team and hide first, I'm afraid these orcs won't dare to take the initiative to fight."
"Since the orcs have taken the initiative to fight, let's have some dessert before meeting Elena for a big meal."
After saying that, Taris pulled down her visor to cover up her charming face, and her temperament suddenly transformed into a cold warrior.
Then, Taris raised the lance in his hand, and the more than thirty champion knights behind him understood and also raised the lance in their hands.
"rush!"
"kill!"
"Da da da da..."
The champion knight charges with quite a lot of movement. Compared to the wolf cavalry opposite, the champion knight is completely wrapped in fine iron. When it moves, the armor on the human body and the armor on the horse will make a unique sound of metal collision. In addition,
The ones sitting under the champion knight's seat were all red flame horses that were even bigger than the horses of the Western Territory. The horses' hooves were even larger with iron hooves. Although they were not many in number, they made a lot of noise when they charged.
"You actually started charging so early, are you so inexperienced?"
This human knight order is probably composed of a group of nobles and knights with little combat experience.
After all, there is no heavy cavalry that starts charging two or three miles away. By the time they rush in front of them, the horses may not be able to run anymore.
But soon, Walls was slapped hard by reality. The knights and unicorns on the other side seemed to have no physical limit at all. They charged a distance of two or three miles but were still vigorous and vigorous, showing no sign of fatigue. The speed
It's getting faster and faster.
We can't expect sixth-level soldiers like the unicorn holy beast to run out of energy first. The red flame horses under the champion knights are also amazingly physical. They can gallop for thousands of meters without gasping for breath. Who cares about the distance of a few miles?
, launched the charge directly under the command of Taris.
At this time, Walls had already faintly noticed that something was wrong with the knights in front of him. Forget about those unicorn horses, why could the horses carrying the heavily armored knights run faster than the light cavalry and have such sufficient physical strength?
If all human war horses were like this, they would have turned the Wolf Cavalry into a younger brother. If they collided with each other at this speed, the loss would probably not be small this time.
But the arrow is already on the string and has to be fired. The opponent has already launched a charge. If you retreat at this time, it will not be a problem of heavy losses. It will immediately be a catastrophic defeat. You have to charge forward even though you have no speed advantage.
Under such circumstances, if you dare to turn around, you will immediately be chased and killed all the way.
"Warriors of the Orcs! Charge!"
"kill!"
When the distance between the two sides approached 500 meters, Walls, who had no choice but to raise the scimitar in his hand, gave the order to charge.
…
…
When charging, the general cavalry will try to maintain a cone shape to ensure the impact and penetration of the team, but the confident Taris did not put up such a formation. She is a sky-level expert, and she has faced the most opponents.
However, the orcs of the Great Samurai have a crushing advantage. The champion knights and unicorn holy beasts behind them are also formidable opponents to the orcs and wolf cavalry on the opposite side, so there is no need to use a cone formation.
Break through the opponent's formation.
In order to cause maximum damage to the orcs, Taris directly asked the team to form a thin fan-shaped formation. She was at the top of the fan-shaped convex surface, and more than thirty champion knights lined up in a slight arc. The unicorn holy beast
Following closely behind, from a distance, the two teams looked like a line crashing into the surging waves.
"boom!"
The two teams collided fiercely. Although the Orc Wolf Cavalry team is not a heavy armored cavalry team, the equipment is not bad. The front body of the giant wolf sitting down is also wearing beast armor and has a spike on its head.
A spiked helmet, specially used to press against the neck of a war horse.
The orc knights above are also wearing strong breastplates and iron helmets. With the ferocity of the giant wolf and the good combat effectiveness of the orc knights above, the orc wolf cavalry has a great advantage even when fighting against human heavy cavalry.
It's just that today's human knights are completely different concepts from the human cavalry of the past.
When the two teams collided, the champion knight burst into fighting spirit in an instant. The lance in his hand easily pierced the breastplate of the wolf cavalry. The seven- to eight-meter lance skewered the wolf cavalry as easily as through candied haws skewers.
After using the blood gourd, with the strength of the champion knight, he could even continue to sweep the lance with one or two orcs hanging on the lance, and sweep the surrounding orcs and wolf cavalry away from the giant wolf.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, the huge gap in combat power was revealed. The fan-shaped formation formed by the champion knights remained motionless and continued to advance, while the orcs continued to fall from the giant wolves. The scimitars in their hands even
