Chapter 504 Horrible War

One after another magic array to strengthen the wall was opened, and the magician's troops stood in the center of the phalanx protected by shield hands, chanting winding magic spells.

In the continent of Yavia, magicians rarely appear on the battlefield, and most of the magicians are concentrated by the Sword Empire to participate in the development of magic arrays and magic applications.

In addition, the magic cannon technology is becoming more and more mature. Because of the disadvantage in range, the role of magicians in war is getting smaller and smaller. In the end, countries around the world have eliminated the formation of pure magician troops one after another. Most of the magicians are regarded as professional talents by various countries and have been collected into magic colleges and other places for scientific research.

And the fortress empire has retained some magicians because of the existence of the wall of sighs. These magicians are responsible for serving in the Wall of Sighs to resist the attack of the orcs.

"The catapling machine and crossbow gun are ready to fire!" An officer shouted loudly, and the soldiers struggled to twist the winch and fill the crossbow cannon with projectiles. From time to time, the captain shouted slogans, and the soldiers responded loudly.

"The huge stone thrown by the enemy is coming! Pay attention to the sky!" Another officer not far away loudly reminded his soldiers: "Shield!"

Before his words fell, a crossbow gun not far behind him was broken into pieces by a huge stone, bringing a piece of plasma and debris. As soon as the boulder stopped shaking, blood flowed from under the stone and penetrated into the cracks in the surrounding rock walls.

"The enemy has entered the range! General!" An officer patted the dust on his body and ran to the headquarters on the tower. He was reporting to General Vanok, "General Levitt sent someone to ask if he would fight back."

Vanoke nodded, put a cigarette in his mouth, and put his hand around the fire fold: "The long-range weapon begins to fight back! Don't fire the magic cannon first!"

The order to counterattack was soon issued, and the projectiles of countless crossbow cannons flew into the distance with the buzzing sound of the iron strings, skimming through the dense infantry and archers phalanx in front of them, and hitting the orc imperial troops that were constantly approaching the city wall.

Looking at the crossbow cannon of their army flying overhead, the infantry cheered. They had just been attacked by a boulder from a round of orc catapults. Now they have seen their own counterattack. Naturally, morale is greatly boosted, and the battle flags of various legions are fluttering in the wind in the city.

"Fire!" The officers raised their swords and ordered loudly, and the crossbow guns and stone throwers poured ammunition into the orc empire under the wall. The battle was full of blood from the beginning.

"Enemy infantry approaching! Archer ready, come on, come on, come on. There was a shout from the observation tower. Bundles of feather arrows were carried by the soldiers to the archer's phalanx. They quickly picked up the rope tied the feather arrows with a long sword, and these murderous weapons were scattered on the ground, allowing the archers to shoot all the arrows and then use them.

"Ready! Let it go!" The archer's commander's loud order, and with his shouting, there was a tense bang of bowstrings. Arrows like raindrops flew to the sky, and then fell straight down not far away. The dense bows and arrows darkened the whole sky for a moment.

An officer ran in in a panic and gave a military salute to Vanoke: "Sir, the news came from the observation post that the troops attacking the Orc Empire were equipped with good armor protection, and our attack did not have the effect of the past. There are not many casualties, and the formation is still intact. It is approaching our wall!"

Before his words fell, there was a shaking under his feet. With the huge roar, a lot of dust and small stones fell on the roof of the tower headquarters. Before the sound passed, the shaking continued to come, looping repeatedly, and it seemed that there was no end.

General Vanoke knew that this loud noise and shaking was the foundation of the orc war beast approaching the wall of sighing under the city.

"Order the troops to pour down the fire oil! Archers prepare rockets!" He has experienced two attacks on the wall of sighs by the orc empire, and it is not surprising that the situation is not surprising. The only tricky thing now is that he can't figure out how many soldiers in the Orc Empire are equipped with armor.

Now most of the troops in his hand are fighting back the attack of the orc empire according to past experience, but according to experience, the orc empire should begin to retreat under the fierce counterattack, but now it seems that the attack has just begun, and General Vanoke feels very uneasy.

The officer beside him was stunned for a moment and asked weakly, "General, it's just the first wave of attacks. Shall we counterattack with fire oil?" Isn't it? Is it too early?"

"There are not many casualties on the other side by this time, sir! They haven't sent Feilong and Bimon yet! If we wait any longer, the defense line will collapse! Order the troops to fight back freely! Immediately!" Vanoke ordered: "Send another messenger immediately! Contact Luopu! Tell your majesty that I need reinforcements and a lot of magic cannon support! Hurry up!"

Yes! Your Excellency General. The officer turned out, and the headquarters calmed down again. Vanoke stared at the slender wall defense line of sighs. From time to time, there was a slight shaking under his feet. There was an excited or tragic cry outside the door. He slowly sat in the chair and knocked uneasily with his hands on the armrest of the chair.

On the first day, the attack of the orc empire continued until late at night before being repelled by human troops. The city was full of charred orc soldiers' bodies, and the air was full of rotten and scorched breath.

Humans defended the wall of sighing after paying a heavy price, but in one day's battle, 40,000 soldiers and two legion commanders were killed in battle: one legion commander was cut into two pieces by orc soldiers who attacked the top of the city, and the other legion commander was smashed into paste by stones while commanding the battle.

Obviously, this well-equipped Orc Empire Force has paid a heavy price for the human troops guarding the Wall of Sighs, and human beings have been in a very unfavorable situation since the beginning of the war.

Although humans annihilated about 80,000 attacking soldiers of the Orc Empire on this day, this data almost made General Vanoke spit blood, because this proportion can simply declare the failure of the first day of human combat. In the last war of Sighs, the loss ratio of both sides was that one human could exchange for seven orcs.

The next morning, Kerry and Old Yves looked at the barracks next door. A new infantry army was transferred to the wall of sighs. They had to stay in position all night to repel the crazy attack of the orc imperial troops. They knew that soon, it would be their turn to embark on that terrible battlefield. The only thing they could do was to survive in that smoke-filled hell.
