Section 431 The First Azeroth Battle
Fortress Terran, the first barrier to defend orc invasion. Today, he ushered in his maiden battle. Less than twenty miles from the fortress, a joint legion consisting of 30,000 orcs and 20,000 winged people was stationed.
Li Xiao, the garrison officer of the Tran Fortress, stood at the top of the city, holding a thousand eyes in his hand, observing the situation of the enemy outside the fortress, frowned slightly. He only had five thousand soldiers in his hand. Although he occupied the geographical advantage, the proportion of the number of soldiers from ten to one was a big problem. What's more, there are 20,000 out of these 50,000 enemies who can fly in the air.
"I wonder if I can hold on until the reinforcements arrive?" Li Xiao put down his eyes and said to himself.
Orc army garrison
Orc general Vera and Wingman general Park Yisheng are discussing the attack plan. They are constantly arguing about who will be the main attacker. Vera believes that Wingman should attack first to attract the attention of the enemy, and then the orcs will attack again. Anyway, you Wingman is in the sky and are not in danger of life. However, Wingman general Park Yisheng believes that the orcs are brave and good at fighting, and are the best candidates for the lead. At least they Wingman, just follow the orcs' attack. Vera sneered at his remarks. Although we orcs are honest, this does not mean that we are stupid. The head is a life of great casualties. For the fifth prince who is at a disadvantage in the league, he cannot afford to suffer too much casualties.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and in the end each took a step back and attacked together, regardless of main attack or auxiliary attack.
Looking at the orc army less than one mile away from the fortress, Li Xiao was a little dry and knew that the situation might be a little bad today. Judging from the orcs' posture, they clearly planned to go down one by one, without the intention of temptation.
An beast soldier rushed to the fortress on horseback and said loudly to Li Xiao standing on the city wall: "Listen to the defenders in the city, my elders have something to say to you. God has a good life and your guards are weak. You are definitely not a match for my army. In order to survive, it is best to open the city and surrender immediately. My elders promise that you can guarantee your life safety after surrender. Give you an incense stick of time to consider it." After that, the beast soldier pulled out his horse and returned.
Li Xiao looked at the soldiers who began to whisper because of the words of the Beast Soldiers, and sighed in his heart: "After all, they are new recruits, they are not as good as the troops they were in before."
"Brothers, everyone listen to me..." Li Xiao cleared his throat and shouted to everyone around him: "Who is outside the city now? Can you believe if it is the enemy? Let us put down the weapons in our hands. What if the enemies are treacherous at that time? And don't forget that our family members have been transferred to the rear. If we have an accident, as a lord, we will definitely take good care of our family. But what if we surrender without fighting, what should we do if our families stay in the rear? Will they all live in the ridicule of others in the future? Reinforcements will arrive soon. As long as we persist for a few days, we can meet our relatives in the form of a winner and make them proud of us. Now, I want to ask you, do you dare to fight?"
"Fighting and Fighting" the soldiers raised their arms and shouted.
Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling glad that the *** was not in vain. The lord said nothing at all. The best way to motivate the soldiers is to use what the soldiers value the most. Looking at the soldiers with high morale at the moment, there should be no problem if they want to defend the fortress for three days.
"Woo~~~" As the horn sounded, the orcs began to attack. The strong orcs carried the ladders of the attacking city and rushed to the Fortress of Terran. When they entered the attack range of the bow and arrow, they heard a shout from the city: "Let's go" a rain of arrows poured the orcs running head-on, shooting to death and injuring the orcs who were running desperately. The orcs who were not shot didn't even look at their companions who were shot beside them, and they still rushed down the city frantically.
Within five hundred meters, the archers had only time to shoot three rounds of volleys, and the orcs rushed to the city. They raised the ladder with force and put it on the wall. The orcs bit their weapons in their mouths, grabbed the ladder with both hands and climbed up quickly.
"The fork lever hand immediately spread the cloud ladder from the city wall and prepare for boiling water." Li Xiao ordered calmly. The soldiers who served as the fork lever hand, five groups, held a fork lever about five meters long, aimed at a cloud ladder, and hit it hard. The cloud ladder fell backwards, accompanied by the orcs' terrified screams, and fell heavily to the ground. The orcs climbed on the cloud ladder were either dead or injured.
"Water" With Li Xiao's order, the boiling water on the city was poured down by the whole pot. Immediately, the orcs screamed by boiling water.
Seeing his beastmen retreating, Vera's face looked a little ugly. He felt that he had been fooled by the Winged Man. He had agreed to attack together, but he had already lost a battle, and the winged birdmen had no movement at all. Vera was about to send someone to ask what happened, but the Winged Man sent someone first. He told Vera that they had already prepared and could start attacking together. Vera was so angry that he laughed and felt uncomfortable being put on a whim. If it weren't for the fact that he was on the battlefield now, Vera might have to take people to trouble those birdmen.
"Go back and tell your elders, don't have a next time." Vera said coldly to the visitor. If it weren't for siege now, Vera would never have let Park Yisheng go easily.
"Yes." Facing the orcs who were eyeing each other, the person who sent the letter to deliver the letter was scared and trembled. He was really afraid that the orcs who were crazy about the orcs who didn't buy the account of the king would tear them to pieces.
Looking at the messenger who was rolling and crawling away, Vera sneered disdainfully. He ordered his orcs to "notify you and prepare for a second siege."
"How is that? How is that Vera's face?" Park Yisheng asked the messenger back with some smugness.
"The face looked ugly, but I held it back."
"Haha... a vulgar orc wants to play tricks on me too? I can't kill you." Park Yisheng said proudly to himself. But Park Yisheng didn't know that his behavior caused a rift to create this cooperation between the orcs and their winged people.
"Woo~~~" The horn of the attack sounded again. The orc rushed up again carrying the ladder. Unlike last time, this time, a dark cloud appeared behind the orc's square formation and slowly pressed towards the Tran Fortress.
"**. It's a little trouble this time." Li Xiao put down Qianli's eyes and cursed hatefully. From Qianli's eyes, Li Xiao found that what was flying in the air was not the dark clouds, but the special army of the Tianyu Empire, the Winged Bowman. As Li Xiao, who first followed Ye Kaihuai and served as Ye Kaihuai's personal guard, they knew exactly what special army there were in various countries. Because Ye Kaihuai used his personal guard as his future military officer to train him. In addition to teaching them to read and learn military tactics every day, he told them about classic battles and what special arms there were in various countries. The Winged Bowman among them was the special army of the Tianyu Empire.
Compared with other races, the Winged Man is relatively slender because of flying. Letting the Winged Man fight with other races fighters head-on is no different from letting them die. For example, an adult Winged Man fighter has the same ability as a housewife in hand-to-hand combat. However, they also have advantages that others do not have. They can fly, so on the battlefield, as long as they bring enough arrows, they can fly with bows and arrows to shoot opponents where their opponents cannot hit. However, this is not without shortcomings, the supply of bows and arrows is a problem. This also creates an embarrassing situation where Tianyu can only defend but not attack. But this time, with orcs as their shields, the Winged Bowman can shoot arrows, supplement and shoot arrows without any scruples.
In just a short while, with the help of the Winged Bowman, the orcs had attacked the city three times. Although they were all beaten down in the end, for Li Xiao, the Winged Bowman was indeed annoying.
The battle continued until it was late. The Winged Bowers could not fight at night, and the orcs did not want to fight alone anymore, so the two sides ended the battle tacitly, giving the Fortress a valuable time to breathe. After counting after the war, the daytime battle left more than half of the soldiers in the Fortress, and most of them died after the Winged Bowers entered the battle. There was no way, while fighting with the orcs in front of them, they also had to beware of cold arrows from the air. This was a very difficult problem for soldiers who had never seen blood.
"Can't fight any more." Li Xiao said in his heart. He knew in his heart that if the orcs and Winged Man still attacked the city together like today, the Tran Fortress will sooner or later be broken. He has to find a way to deal with the Winged Man.
"Sir, reinforcements have arrived." A surprising voice interrupted Li Xiao's thoughts.
Li Xiao quickly rushed to the city gate where the reinforcements arrived and looked at the face that was illuminated by the lights. Li Xiao quickly ordered: "Open the city gate quickly." After that, he hurriedly ran down the city. When he ran to the city gate, Li Xiao was excited and said to the reinforcements general: "Mr. Locke, why did you lead the team in person?"
"This is the defense zone I am responsible for. Now that something is wrong, why can I not come? Stop talking politely, hurry up and tell me the situation here in detail." Locke asked straight to the topic after answering a sentence.
"Yes, we have fought with those orcs and Winged Man today?"
“How does it feel?”
"If there were no winged men, the orcs' attack was not scary."
Li Xiao told Locke about the daytime battle situation. After hearing the news that the defenders of Tran Fortress had suffered more than half of their casualties in one day, Locke made a decision that made Li Xiao suspect that he had heard it wrong.
