Chapter 228 Fighting Elf Navy
More than 20,000 people in the orc army have attacked the opposite river bank. Although they are compressed by the arch and arrow troops of the elves and cannot take a step forward, the chief priest undoubtedly relieved the pressure of the orc transport fleet on the river.
However, just as the battlefield situation began to fall to the orcs, several black warships suddenly appeared on the river.
These warships made a mechanical friction sound and rushed into the battlefield at high speed. The crossbow gun on the bow was fired at close range, and the hit rate was quite amazing.
The battlefield situation fell to the elves again in an instant, and these ironclad warships exported by Luomai became the killer of the elves against the orcs.
The beast king Wipton's eyes were straight. Those terrible ships easily smashed an orc transport ship and continued to move forward unharmed.
"Aim! Aim! Launch!" The elf navy shouted loudly and fired one after another of crossbow guns. The orc warships not far away broke down. Because most of them were returning empty ships, only some sailors floated on the water.
These 10 warships are like wolves entering the sheep pen, running through the transport section of the orcs crossing the river without any resistance, sinking dozens of orc transport ships and reimbursing thousands of orc troops.
Soon, the transport ship full of orc troops sailed to the opposite battlefield again to support the logged-in orc soldiers.
After a circle, the elf warship also returned to the battlefield and harvested the life of the orc's transport ship.
However, this time, the orcs were not passively beaten. Many ships shot bows and crossbows, killing and injuring the soldiers on the elf battleship, but the iron-clad ship could not be stopped from sinking the transport ship.
Then a shocking scene appeared. A Bimeng beast jumped on an elf ironclad ship at the moment when its transport ship was crashed, instantly destroying all the crossbows on the deck and killing many elf soldiers.
"Return! Drive that monster down!" The captain of the ironclad ship ordered that the sailors and soldiers braved the rain of arrows to drive the Bimon, but Bimon fiercely slaughtered the elves that rushed up.
Then he began to smash the cockpit and the exhaust pipe, and finally made the ironclad ship uncontrollable and hit a shallow strand.
The warship that lost its mobility was immediately besieged, but the orcs found that they could not open the unlocked hatches to enter, while the elves used the cabin to resist tenaciously.
In the end, the orcs could not attack for a long time and had no choice but to use a large catapult to turn the strong steel ship into a pile of scrap metal across the river.
At a heavy price, the elf's ironclad still insisted on repeatedly hitting the orcs' river crossing troops, sinking or sinking or sinking hundreds of orc transport ships.
Then another ironclad ship was destroyed because it climbed up the Bimont beast. The ironclad ship directly hit the river bank and twisted into several sections and broke on the shore. The keel structure inside was distorted by the huge force, and the magic array was completely destroyed.
However, for this reason, the orcs also paid a heavy price for the sinking of dozens of Bimon transport ships, and the Bimon beasts were drowned in the river.
"turn around! Continue to attack! We will defend our compatriots to the death! Long live the elf forest!" An elf captain shouted solemnly.
All the crossbow guns and other weapons on his ship's deck have been destroyed, more than half of the soldiers have been killed, and only some sailors are barely maintained, but the elf warship still rushed into the orc's fleet without hesitation.
"ignite! Launch the rocket! Burn these iron boats! Their deck is made of wood!" Orcs are not passively beaten. They are also looking for the weaknesses of these steel warships, and soon they began to make different attempts.
Countless rockets began to shoot at the elf's ironclad ship. The deck of one ship was really lit, and a blazing fire broke out. The elf sailors who came out to put out the fire were killed by bows and arrows, which had no effect.
Although it only ignited an elf ship, the ironclad ship that ignited a raging fire crashed into the port of Elf King City, easily destroying a wharf.
Then an ironclad ship crashed into too many wooden ships and finally hit the iron plate on the sideboard, and in an instant, a large amount of river water poured into the hull.
"Block the loopholes quickly, or we will sink!" A sailor leader ordered, but the water still could not be controlled, and soon tilted the hull of the whole ship.
As a result, the leaking ironclad ship hit two orc troop carriers in a row, completely damaging the cracked side of the ship and leaking more river water. Finally, the ship tilted and sank in the middle of the river.
The loss slowly made it a little difficult for both sides to accept. There were only six of the elf fleets left, and each of them was injured, two of which were completely unreliable, and more than 3,000 people were killed. The orcs also lost more than 20,000 infantry, dozens of Bian giant beasts, and more than 3,000 bear warriors.
The loss of the orcs is not only limited to these troops, but also more than 30,000 troops were attacked near the banks of the elves. If these unsaved troops are included, the losses of the orcs' attack will be very huge.
As a last resort, the beast emperor Wipton ordered to stop the attack again: "Order the troops to stop attacking, send a signal to the orc troops opposite, and order them to surrender. The beast god will forgive their choice."
It took a while for this order to reach the commander on the other side of the river. The sound of drums and horns interfered with the contact information of orcs who relied on loud voices.
The orc troops who continued to struggle for half an hour to cross the river finally put down their weapons and announced their surrender to the Elf Forest. The second battle of the orcs crossing the river, which lasted more than 3 hours, ended.
Blood covered the river, and the pale red river returned to its true nature half an hour later. The second river crossing attack of the Orc Empire failed again.
This time, the elf clan captured the first prisoners since the beginning of the war: about 20,000 orc troops surrendered, including 3,000 bear warriors.
These troops were escorted to the town behind, confiscated weapons and equipment, divided into smaller teams, and handed over to the elf recruits.
Although Tessa's observation report is skeptical of the combat effectiveness of the elves, and the criticism of their mistakes and backward equipment in combat is very sharp, it still praises the determination and courage of the elves to defend their country in the final summary.
In this battle, the elves' navy defended the elf king city, forcing the orc empire to give up the attack, and finally made the 20,000 orcs surrender and complete their task.
The elves won more valuable preparation time, and the Battle of Kubu, which was personally commanded by Arcado on the northern front, was successfully launched.
