My Empire War Game

Chapter 255 Siege Battle

"Silver Wing Knights! Charge!"

The strongest troop in Blackrock Fortress, the Silver Wing Knights quickly assembled, and then charged directly south under the leadership of Wayne.

The orcs who created chaos in the city have long been dispersed into small groups. Their purpose is not to kill people, but to create chaos. As long as they see human soldiers begin to gather, these orcs will rush to kill the humans.

When some orcs saw a large number of knights gathered here, they wanted to rush up, but before they could make a move, the knights launched a charge. Once the five hundred knights charged, these orcs were simply a man’s arm blocking the car, a dozen elite orcs. The warrior, without even a splash of water, was completely submerged under the knight's hooves.

Behind the Silver Wing Knights, there were still many cavalry and rout soldiers retreating. With these Knights opening the way, the orcs in the city were unable to resist, and soon the Silver Wing Knights rushed out of the city.

Seeing the Blackstone Fortress, which was already in flames behind him, Wayne called a guard beside him and said solemnly, "Give him the fastest horse!"

"Go to Karth City now! Tell Lord Ellie that Blackrock Fortress has fallen, and let him prepare as soon as possible! Go now! Quick! You guys escort him together!"

The Blackstone Fortress was breached, and the northern provinces were the first to be hit. The only city in those cities that could resist the orc army was Carth City. Once Carth City was lost, the orc army would be able to drive straight in.

It was already five o'clock in the morning when Su Lun received the news. He was sleeping soundly with Alex in his arms, and was woken up by several harpies. He was surprised when he learned that Blackrock Fortress changed hands overnight. Close your mouth.

"Are those defenders all rice buckets?" Su Lun couldn't help complaining. Originally, he was thinking of taking advantage of the fact that both the orc army and the human race were at a loss, so he could benefit from it. I didn't expect these human armies to be so weak. To live up to expectations, relying on this solid city wall was easily breached.

"How did the orcs break through the Blackrock Fortress?" Suren asked.

"The orcs sent their elite troops to cross the Nefer Mountains, and then took advantage of the dark night to carry out a sneak attack. The Blackrock Fortress was disturbed in chaos. The army of orcs outside the fortress took the opportunity to attack the city. Human beings could not resist and could only abandon the city and escape." The harpy returned to the road.

"Crossing the Nafir Mountains?" Su Lun squeezed his chin: "It seems that there are also ruthless orcs, but it is not easy for even a small group of troops to cross the Nafir Mountains, and their number must be Not too many, but if you want to disrupt Blackrock Fortress, you can't have five or six hundred people."

"The orcs must have used other methods!"

"When you were investigating, was there anything unusual in the orc camp."

"By the way, we found some wyverns in the orc camp!" said the harpy.

Su Lun nodded: "The two-footed flying dragon, the orcs actually domesticated this kind of sub-dragon, so it is no wonder that their sneak attack went so smoothly."

"Let our people be careful, don't be discovered by the orc scouts, and pay attention to which wyverns!"

Although bipedal dragons are not outstanding among flying dragons, their strength is also third-order, and they also have deadly venom. They are a very troublesome dragon, but the air force is the air force.

"What's the situation with the orcs now?" Su Lun asked.

"The army of orcs is passing through Blackrock Canyon, and some orcs have already begun to rush into the northern provinces."

"It seems that the Kingdom of Florence is in big trouble. The Blackstone Fortress has been breached. Without this barrier, the northern provinces will be in a melee, and the food will be ripe in a week, and now it is time to supply those orcs! "

"Once there is enough food, these orcs will be difficult to deal with!"

Just when Su Lun was hiding, the orc army began to continuously advance towards the human hinterland.

The first to suffer was Winter City. Blackrock Fortress was breached. They didn't receive any news at all. Then, at dawn, they saw the army of orcs that they had become. Except for part of the army of orcs guarding the city, the rest of the army of orcs was hurrying to harvest. food.

Although these grains are still a week away from being ripe, the orcs can't wait any longer. Seeing the army of orcs outside the city, the city lord of Winter City did not have the courage to go out to fight at all, so he closed the gate and recruited soldiers again to defend.

The orc army didn't care about Winter City's actions at all. This Winter City was not as strong as Blackrock Fortress. The most important thing for them now was to harvest food. After the food was harvested, they began to deal with Winter City.

The army of Winter City is only a thousand people, and its strength is also very average. There are seven thousand soldiers temporarily recruited, but these people have never been on the battlefield, and there are no wizards. The city wall is only six or seven meters high. Far from being comparable to Blackrock Fortress.

In the face of this situation, the shaman in the orc army also took action, and lightning or flames were released one after another. This small town with a population of only 20,000 to 30,000 people did not hold up for even a morning, and was overrun by the orcs. Next, the orc army did not stop and went all the way south.

The remaining cities that have been prepared have already begun to fortify their walls and clear the fields, but the orcs came too quickly. Many times, half of the food was not harvested, and then they could only be burned. But even so, a large amount of food was still robbed by the orcs.

The entire Northland was full of humans and orcs fighting each other, the beasts continued to attack, and the humans began to fight desperately.

In order to completely defeat the human beings, the orc army did not stay in other cities for long. After grabbing the food, they saw that these cities were all ready for battle, and the orcs who did not want to give humans a chance to breathe only left a few troops to guard. In these cities, the brigade of orcs rushed directly to Karth City.

As the most important city in the North, Carthus had been the front line against the orcs for more than two hundred years before, until the Kingdom of Florence completely defeated the orcs in a war, drove the orcs further north, and built a Blackrock Fortress, since that day, Carter City has not experienced war for more than 100 years.

Lord Elie Savoy almost thought he had heard it wrong when he heard that Blackrock Fortress had fallen.

After confirming the accuracy of the news again and again, Marquis Eli immediately launched a war mobilization order. Fortunately, the nobles living in the north have not completely forgotten the bravery of their ancestors, and they are much stronger than the nobles in the southern provinces. .

Fortunately, the city defenses of Karth City were well built. After continuous efforts, Karth City finally arrived and was ready for war when the army of orcs arrived.

The alarm bell in the city sounded, and the soldiers of the brigade began to climb the city wall. Wayne and Gavin also climbed the city wall with the gathered remnants. The two of them did not escape. If he ran away now, when the war was over, the lightest punishment would be lowering the title, and even execution would not be impossible.

So in order to reduce guilt, they must take credit.

During this period of time, Gavin gathered more than 2,000 rout soldiers. These rout soldiers were originally experienced veterans. As long as they were integrated, they would soon be able to regenerate combat effectiveness. Wayne also integrated a lot of troops, and he also has a knight in his hand.

From the time the orcs invaded to the present, the war has been going on for more than half a month. In this half month, both humans and orcs have suffered great losses. Of course, humans have suffered even more losses. The orcs have captured two prisoners and slaves. There are more than 10,000 people, and they do not intend to kill these human beings, but they are all demoted to slaves.

After all the soldiers gathered, Gavin and Wayne immediately took them to the city wall. Along the way, there were soldiers in a hurry everywhere, and the constant alarm bells let many people know the seriousness of the matter.

When I came to the city wall, I saw at a glance that they were all densely packed orcs, and the whole earth was green. The war has not yet begun, and cold sweats have already broken out on many people's foreheads.

Under the city, the army of tens of thousands of orcs has been assembled, and the orcs have surrounded the city of Carter. All the way into the hinterland of the human kingdom, the orcs are trying to uproot the city of Carth. As long as the city is captured, the orcs now occupy the land will be stable.

The land that was obtained after paying huge casualties, the orcs will never be willing to spit out the fat that has been late. Even if this land is not fertile, it is much stronger than the northern wasteland where the orcs originally lived.

For the Kingdom of Florence, the loss of the Blackstone Fortress was a bolt from the blue. If the city of Carth was occupied by orcs again, it would not be so easy for the human kingdom to recover.

The low horn sounded, and the orc army began to slowly advance. After moving to the range of the archers, the orcs began to charge forward with messy footsteps. All the siege equipment was moved out. Towers, siege vehicles, cloud ladders, and simple catapults with a strong orc style were also pushed out.

Although these catapults looked crudely made, there was no problem with their function. After being coated with a layer of kerosene, the stone bullets were thrown out by the catapult and then hit the city wall.

Most of the stones in the catapult are two or three kilograms in weight, and some heavy catapults even throw tens of pounds of stones into the sky. The heavy stone slammed heavily on the city wall, directly smashing the place where it hit, and the burning stone bullets caused chaos on the city wall.

The human side did not show weakness, and also used the trebuchet to start the bombing, but because of the limited space on the city wall, the number of trebuchets was much smaller than that of the orcs, but the human trebuchets were more accurate and condescending, allowing them to attack a wider range. .

Stone bullets flew up, and the orcs were not directly plowed out of blood by these stone bullets, but this did not frighten the orcs at all.
