After more than two months of marching and renovation, in early June 309, a total of ten legions gathered in the Solomon Fortress near the Palmela Plain. With the order of Emperor Ora, eight of them were 550,000 troops opened out of the Solomon Fortress.
The attack empire was divided into two main attack forces: the Southern Cluster and the Northern Cluster. The target of the battle was Tobrook, known as the Fortress of the Fortress.
The commander-in-chief of the Southern Cluster is Aland. In addition to the two main corpses of Emperor Dragon and Silver Dragon, there are two Ninth and Tenth Corps recruited and formed a year ago, with a total force of up to 250,000.
His strategic goal is to defeat the boulder fortress in the southern part of the Pamela Plain, cut off the possibility of demons' reinforcements to orcs, and protect the rear security of the northern cluster I commanded.
The northern cluster of 300,000 people, commanded by me, consisting of four legions of the Black Dragon, Bilong, Sea Dragon Knights and the Youth Guards, is responsible for the attack on Tobrook Fortress
Because on the Eastern Front
The Empire is in the unfavorable condition of fighting against two
The number of soldiers in each legion has been greatly expanded
The strategic reserve team of 100,000 people, commanded by the old Red Armor Dragon, is in charge of Solomon Fortress and is ready to make reinforcements to the two legions in the north and south at any time.
The Empire assembled a total of 650,000 troops on the Eastern Front
Whether in terms of gathering troops or consuming materials, the scale of the Dragoon plan far exceeds the Seven Years War, and it can be regarded as the largest military operation since the founding of the Empire.
But the Dragoon plan did not go well at the beginning
The old red-armored dragon Cordith, the seventh generation dragon warrior, the dignified president and the identity of an elder, was squeezed out by two young people in this battle and became the commander of the strategic reserve team.
Of course he was not happy when he was on the bench. Originally, he wanted to command the Southern Legion, but Ruyue strongly recommended Aland. In the end, Emperor Ola was forced to give in.
In order to appease the old Red Armor Dragon, the emperor appointed him as the supreme commander-in-chief of the front line. Aland and I have to obey his movements
But in fact, this commander-in-chief is only nominal.
Robin secretly told me that in order to prevent the old Red Armored Dragon from leaving Solomon Fortress and running to the front line to interfere with Aland's command, Aland received a secret order from Emperor Ora, giving him the right to act independently on the front line, telling him not to pay attention to the old Red Armored Dragon.
Ruyue also personally took over the Fortress of Solomon in the name of the general. On the surface, she was the position of military supervisor, but in fact she was to restrict the old Red Armored Dragon, so as not to stretch her hands too long for this veteran who is not a general.
Interfere with the military affairs of two frontline commanders, Aland and I
Although I did not receive a similar order to Aland, Emperor Ola knew me very well. If the old Red Ankylosaurus's hand was too long, I would not buy his account at all.
In fact, the Dragoon plan was troublesome from the moment it was placed on the table. In order to deal with the various military doubts raised by the commanders of each legion, the imaginary difficulties, the troops mobilized continued to expand like steamed buns, and finally turned into a terrifying giant.
When this plan was passed, the number of troops participating in the battle also changed from the initial 400,000 to the current 650,000
After the Ministry of Finance trembled and reported the military budget needed to support this battle, the nine-digit military budget changed greatly on the spot.
It is equivalent to the two years of the empire's fiscal revenue!
The Golden Dragon's heart almost collapsed due to the impact of this number
However, in order to make a glorious event before death, and to divert domestic conflicts, Emperor Aola finally decided to pass the Dragoon plan, which can be called a gamble in the century.
When Emperor Ola announced the passage of the Dragoon plan in a hoarse voice in the large chamber, the entire chamber was as quiet as death. After more than ten seconds, no one of them took the lead, and cheers and applause rang out in scattered lights, but none of the senior officials who knew the exact figures of the military budget showed a good face, and everyone looked heavy.
In order to save money, Emperor Ola repeatedly asked Goridel and his group to improve the manufacturing process
Reduce manufacturing costs
At the same time, a group of auditors were sent to track and review the allocation and use of each military expenditure. If there is any corruption and fraud, all the property will be killed and the property will be charged.
The empire is poor, and the importance of money has never been as prominent as it is now
The night before the army set out
Emperor Ola called Aland and I and said to us gloomy:
Duke Suneda, Marquis Yasen, please give you everything! You all understand that I, like you, have already shot arrows and never turn back! If you are defeated in this battle, you both come to see me with your heads!
Aland and I swore to the earth that we would fulfill our mission, but we cursed the emperor's bastard in our hearts, and thought that this plan was not made by you. Now that we say such irresponsible words, we clearly want to use us as scapegoats and slaughter them after we are defeated.
Faced with this huge pressure, it is impossible for me to deliberately let go of the water and lose the battle.
In order to win this battle, whether it is the loving Emperor Aola or the ruthless Princess Ruyue.
All gave me and Aland to the greatest extent
Aland commanded the Southern Legion. In order to make his military orders thoroughly, no dragon warrior participated in the battle in his legion.
It was unthinkable before that without the Dragon Warriors joining the war
There are many opponents, but Ruyue dismissed all the opposition in one sentence
The best warrior does not equal the best famous general!
And I am the only one who participated in the Northern Legion I commanded.
Mis, Dicanho is on the Western Front, Kristen Jr. is missing, Ruyue is in Solomon, Josie is responsible for logistics support. As for my best brother, Bordeaux, Emperor Ola, does not allow him to go with me, the reason is very high-sounding: Auntie Brigitte is just such a son, afraid that he will make some mistakes
Of course I understand the intention of the Dog Emperor's move. Bordeaux is my best friend and good brother. If I really want to rebel, letting him be by my side is equivalent to filling the wings for the tiger.
But I also admire this dog emperor a little. I, the traitor, was the commander who led the army of 300,000. His courage really surprised me
Of course, in the 300,000 army I commanded, the emperor must have installed countless spys, and based on the actions I may take, he must have made sufficient preparations.
After leaving Solomon Fortress, the army marched east for two days, and then began to divide the troops.
On the eve of the division, two senior officers from military clusters gathered together to hug each other and say goodbye to each other.
I took Robin to shake hands and say goodbye to Aland
Aland, you will protect my rear. Please!
I promise you that a demon soldier will not set foot on the land of the Bruce continent.
We are both soldiers and comrades with good relationships. The farewell words are quite brief, and then we salute each other as a military officer.
Robin also stood up, the farewell ceremony between the brothers was even simpler
elder brother!
Do it well! I won't let you down!
Aland patted his brother on the shoulder and nodded at him with encouragement.
The brothers looked at each other, hugged each other, and then quickly separated for ten days, the northern cluster with the Black Dragon Knights as the pioneer passed through the Pamela Plain and entered the Bruce Continent.
Standard hilly terrain from the continent of Bruce
A large number of hilly mountains cut the land into countless broken basins & cols
The climate here is dry, and most of the plants in the mountains are low bushes
Due to the many mountains and few plains, the terrain here is not suitable for heavy cavalry combat
The so-called death triangle
It is actually a very vast area, including two parts: the Forbidden Demon Area and the Demon Suppression Area
The Forbidden Demon Area starts from Modanna at the entrance of the Bruce continent in the south, to the famous fortress Tobrook in the east, and to the gold-producing city of Libys in the west.
The distance between the three cities is almost equal (about one hundred and fifty kilometers), and it is arranged in an almost perfect equilateral triangle.
In this triangle area, no magic can be used, and the name of the magic black hole comes from this
With this equilateral triangle as the center and expanding outward within a range of about 200 kilometers, it is a magic suppression area with severely limited magic use and greatly reduced power.
From the outside to the inside
The closer the distance to the forbidden demon area, the more difficult it will be to use magic and the more restrictions you will be
A level seven magic that is extremely powerful in other places, in the demon suppression area within a hundred kilometers of the forbidden demon zone, its lethality is only equivalent to level two magic.
This is true for lethal magic, auxiliary and restorative magic are even more discounted
This is the famous Death Triangle Region, the battle paradise of orcs, and the magic black hole. In this area, the compass that distinguishes direction has lost its sense of direction, and the pointer is constantly turning around, completely losing its function. When marching, you can only rely on the sun and stars to distinguish directions.
Modanna is a city built in a circular valley. It is located in the Forbidden Demon area, less than ten kilometers away from the nearest area where magic can be used.
The Northern Legion is about to attack Tobrook Fortress, the first obstacle before the imperial army is Modanna City
The Dragoon plan is too large, and things that are too large are always hard to hide. As early as a year ago, people on the entire continent knew that the center of the imperial military strategy had shifted from demons to orcs.
When the Empire was actively preparing for war, the orcs were not idle either
When the Northern Legion was still three days away from Modanna, the scout cavalry sent in advance sent back the news that the orcs had assembled an astonishing number of troops in the area of Modanna City, and were preparing to fight the imperial army there to the death.
Due to the huge difference in body shape and appearance and the orcs' strong xenophobia, the Empire's intelligence collection work on the Bruce continent was quite unsuccessful, and it was impossible to send spies to spy on secrets before the war.
Although a large number of reconnaissance troops were sent during the war, the intelligence collected was very limited, and even the exact number of opponent's troops could not be identified.
Among the four major legions attacking Brook, the newly formed Youth Guards were the most powerful, with a force of up to 100,000, half of which were new firearms units. The composition of the soldiers was transferred by other legions, and some veterans were combined together according to the ratio of one old and four new ones. According to my recommendation, Orvemas replaced me as the commander of the Young Guards, and the deputy commander was Robin.
In my plan, the Young Guards and the Black Dragon Knights are the aces that annihilate the main force of the orcs
Fire Dragon Gun and Fire Dragon Cannon (hereinafter referred to as artillery) are expensive, the production process is too complex, and the output is greatly limited.
So far, only the Young Guards and the Black Dragon Knights have equipped this weapon in large quantities, while less than one-fifth of the troops of the Sea Dragon and the Blue Dragon Knights are equipped with new firearms.
The Southern Legion commanded by Aland only had the main force of the Imperial Dragon Knights equipped with 200 artillery pieces, and the other legions had not changed at all. At this moment, I concentrated nearly half of the empire's military power, which was correct at all.
After reaching the edge of the Forbidden Demon Area, the Northern Legion stopped advancing and temporarily repaired. A war was about to break out, and a small-scale combat conflict between the two armies
It also puts it on the table in advance like a small dot before the meal
In a small village abandoned by orcs on the edge of the Forbidden Demon Area, a squadron of dracos made up of 100 people (the empire called cavalry equipped with fire dragon spears a dragon cavalry) was surrounded by a small orc regiment of more than 600 people.
Facing a melee corps of six times self, composed of bears, leopards and Comodod dragons, this cavalry squadron equipped with fire dragon guns lined up in a shooting formation and shot continuously, repelling several attacks of orcs in succession, and finally broke out of the thirteen dead in battle at the cost of thirteen people. One of the thirteen dead people was unfortunately hit in the head by scattered debris because the fire dragon gun was overheated and exploded. Five people died in the early stage of the orcs' sudden attack, and the remaining seven were killed during the retreat.
Two hours later, the cavalry brigade who came to reinforce the village again. They found 161 abandoned orc corpses. After the news came, the 161 to 13 record surprised everyone.
The scene at that time was like killing a duck!
Those orcs were rushing from all directions, as numerous as ants!
We shoot continuously, shoot, shoot again
They fell down like cut wheat in rows!
That scene was so spectacular!
The Hundred Cavalry Captains who participated in this battle are now standing in my tent to describe the battle scene
He looked excited, and his mouth was splashing when he spoke. His excited expression seemed completely unbelievable that he was a veteran who had experienced several wars, which made him so lose his composure, who had been grinded into a soldier by the war.
Goridel, who was present, said to me excitedly: How about it? Daxiu, I have said a long time ago that with these two treasures, those four simple-minded four-legged beasts are all waste
This time, the attack on Tobrook Fortress, the Western Amateur scientists led by Goridel also participated in the battle with the army.
I glared at him and said angrily: Don't brag here... You'd better check the wear of the Fire Dragon Gun's chambers they used, and the explosion gun! This kind of ghost thing with limited time and number of usage is too unrest! After driving away Gridel, Orvemas sighed and shook his head:
One Hundred and Sixty-one to Thirteen… The situation is not good!
I also sighed: It's really not good, the power of the Fire Dragon Spear is too great
Robin made a puzzled statement at first, and then he understood the mystery: It’s not good, how could it be bad... Well... it’s really not good!
Yalai, who was taking the record aside, saw that the three of us senior generals were shaking their heads
Put down my pen, look at my face, want to ask, but dare not ask
I saw his expression and pointed him out: If you were King Bemon, what would you think after seeing this 161 to 13 war report? Although Yalai had never seen the Dragoon plan, after the war started, he was a recorder in the Northern Legion, as a recorder, so he knew more than half of the plan.
Yalai comes from a military family
My father and grandpa are all soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, and they are innocent and reliable. In addition, I have the selfish desire to cultivate, so I am qualified to attend such a confidential meeting.
Bite the pen in his mouth and think for a while
Yalai asked me: Sir, are you worried that King Bemon will withdraw his main force from Modanna to Tobrook, which will make our plan to destroy the main force of the orcs in Modanna fail?
I nodded in appreciation, thinking that the child can teach
The most critical part of the Dragoon plan is to pull the main force of the orc out of the protection range of Thor's Hammer.
Before the war, Ovemas and I were both optimistic about the Fire Dragon Spear and Fire Dragon Cannon, but we didn't expect that their power in actual combat would be so shocking that our supreme commander could not sit still.
If King Bemon realized the huge crisis brought by the fire dragon robbery and artillery and retreated his army to Tobrook and could not be held out, then the entire Dragoon plan I carefully planned would become a pile of waste paper
I ordered urgently: I will notify the generals of each legion immediately. Unless the orcs dispatch the Bemon Behemoth Legion, you must not use artillery troops unless you have to! That is our ace, and you must not reveal it until the most critical moment!
When I was worried that King Bemon might be scared away, bad news came one after another
A team of more than 100 people from a certain unit of the Bilong Knights encountered a bear squad with a number of equal numbers at a certain water source. They used spear-arm infantry to cover the fire dragon guns and volleyball guns to rogue guns and damage them! Our army suffered very few casualties.
More than a thousand people from a certain unit of the Black Dragon Knights rushed into Barclay Town in the forbidden demon area, and fought fiercely with the defenders, and won the battle!
Looking at the battle reports of great victory
Orvimas and I smiled bitterly, and secretly blamed ourselves for not considering it carefully
According to the right-wing Sea Dragon Knights, a 500-man unit equipped with 80 fire dragon guns in the legion was attacked by an orc at night last night, almost wiped out, with only seventeen people escaping
After listening to the battle described by the survivor himself
Orvimas and I are in a deeper mood
It's still the forbidden area. Is the early warning and protection magic invalid? How could the orcs sneak into the village?
Report to the Lord, although early warning magic can be used, in the demon suppression area, early warning magic is equivalent to falsehood and will not call the police at all. It is the same as none of them.
What about the Fire Dragon Spear?
In the dark night battle, he was very useless! And at that time the scene had turned into a melee and accidentally injured more people than orcs!
How is the situation of individual fights?
Very bad! We have to use two bear warriors of the same type to barely compete with him! In this ghost place where magic is almost impossible to use, we are very disadvantaged in individual combat. Physical strength, the orcs among the new humans are never comparable to real orcs, but because the body is mixed with blood from other races, the advantage of the orcs of the orcs is that they can cast some small magic to support the battle in battle, which is indeed what the orcs cannot do.
Under normal circumstances, the two sides are basically equal in one-on-one fighting, but in the area of the forbidden and devil-suppressing, the shortcomings of the orc warrior are completely exposed.
Or is it that the power warriors carefully selected for fighting here will lose so badly?
How did Hannibal do that back then? It was so real!
The result of the defeat did not surprise me. What made me most headache was that the orcs seized many fire dragon guns through this battle.
I am not afraid of imitation from my opponents. The manufacturing process of fire dragon guns and artillery is very complex, and the requirements for metal smelting technology are even more abnormal. With the complex gunpowder formula, they are the crystallization of science.
Orcs and demons who know nothing about scientific civilization don't even think of imitating the gourd. I am only worried that King Bemon will be wary after seeing the Fire Dragon Spear seized and will immediately withdraw the army to Tobrook, protected by Thor's hammer, to avoid war.
On the third day of my headache for the premature exposure of the Fire Dragon Spear, the alarm bell rang, and the Black Dragon Knights, who served as the former army, were attacked by three orc legions.
At the same time, the left-wing Blue Dragon Knights and the right-wing Sea Dragon Knights were respectively restrained and attacked by an orc legion.
Looking at the momentum, there is a intention to swallow the vanguard army in a convex position.
With the intention of steady progress, the Northern Legion was not moving fast, and the four legions were less than three kilometers apart from each other.
King Bemon escaped from the most favorable area forbidden demons and came to the area for suppression to launch an attack. This move is somewhat unexpected, but it is also within the calculation range of the pre-war sand table calculation. For this situation, there are already a preparatory plan in the Dragoon Plan.
After making an emergency corresponding deployment in accordance with the pre-war preparatory plan, I left the army and rushed to the front line to inspect the war situation. The responsibility of leading the entire army to fight was entrusted to Orvimas.
Ovemas serves two positions
One is the commander of the young guard army, and the other is the chief of staff of the Northern Legion
His military talent is far above me, and I feel at ease to hand over the command to him
When I arrived on the battlefield, the orc attack had already begun in full swing. On the two-kilometer-long front, three orc legions formed three huge square formations, squeezing towards the Black Dragon Knights.
The forward of the legion who rushed in the front was less than one kilometer away from the defense line of the Black Dragon Knights
Above the Orc Legion, nearly two hundred thunderbirds howled and hovered in the sky. Such a powerful air force made me envious of my eyes.
Due to years of war consumption, the number of thunderbirds, griffins and human-faced birds on the continent has decreased dramatically, among which the human griffins and demons have the human-faced bird troops are the most important.
This time during the imperial expedition to Tobrook, I could only draw out the pitiful thirteen griffins, so I couldn't bear to take them out of Solomon Fortress
If this continues, in a few years, such birds of prey will become extinct on the continent like dragons, and the orcs will not be better. Like the spectacular scene of thousands of thunderbirds spreading over the sky during the Seven Years War, forming a golden cloud, which is hard to appear again.
The one in the middle is the most elite Thirteenth Legion under the throne of Bemon, with two hundred Bemons!
On the east is the Fifth Legion and on the west is the Seventh Legion, all of which are the direct troops of King Bemon. These two troops each have 120 Bemon beasts! According to this situation, on the front of the Black Dragon Knights, King Bemon invested more than 120 thousand troops!
When I stood on the temporary watchtower built on the front line to observe the enemy situation, Hu Te, who was huddled with me, reported the military situation to me in a steady tone.
Depending on the situation, they want to eat us in one go!
I stammered and didn't answer Hu Te immediately
I knew it in my mind that although facing the pressure of three orc legions, it was not easy for King Bemon to make dumplings from the Black Dragon Knights.
The expanded Black Dragon Knights' total strength is as high as 70,000, and the strength of the Northern Legion is second only to the Young Guards.
On the day before the war started, in order to prepare for the general offensive, I had just transferred one-third of the main force of the Young Guards to the front line to join the Black Dragon Knights, and transferred Robin to the front line.
Now, the two troops combined have 20,000 elite heavy cavalry, 25,000 dragon spear soldiers, and 300 artillery pieces. Their strength is not inferior to their opponents in terms of strength.
Sir, you must use artillery. It is difficult to deal with so many behemoths with the Fire Dragon Spear alone!
Seeing that I had not spoken, Hu Te nagged in my ear again. This sentence was what he really wanted to say, because I just issued an order banning the use of artillery not long ago.
When Hu Te and I were talking on the watchtower, all the dragon spearmen on the ground had entered the shooting position dug two days ago, and the cannons prepared to deal with the Behemoth were also placed in the best shooting position.
A small part of the orc troops of the Thirteenth Legion have entered the maximum range of artillery. With my order, the roar of hundreds of artillery will completely tear the myth of the orcs being invincible in the Death Triangle.
I searched through the telescope for a long time. Three orcs forests could not find the trace of King Bimon Des. I felt a little disappointed and put down the telescope and asked Hu Te: Do you think King Bimon's intention in this battle is to throw a stone to ask for directions to test the power of our new weapons, or do you want to eat us in one breath?
Hu Te sighed: I think there are both! If we can't fight against the Behemoth, they can tear our defense apart with just one charge. Without the cover of a powerful magician, any army and the Behemoth Corps face each other head-on battle is no different from suicide.
In the demon suppression area, the magic effect is less than 10% in normal environments. Destructive magic is like scratching the titans against such giant beasts. What's more, before the war, all the magician troops originally belonged to the Northern Legion were transferred to the Southern Legion of Aland. The artillery is the last ace we can deal with the Bemon monsters now!
Agree with you! That old fox is so cunning! It seems that he has to use a cannon!
I sighed and issued an order to allow the firing of the fire reluctantly
The attack empire was divided into two main attack forces: the Southern Cluster and the Northern Cluster. The target of the battle was Tobrook, known as the Fortress of the Fortress.
The commander-in-chief of the Southern Cluster is Aland. In addition to the two main corpses of Emperor Dragon and Silver Dragon, there are two Ninth and Tenth Corps recruited and formed a year ago, with a total force of up to 250,000.
His strategic goal is to defeat the boulder fortress in the southern part of the Pamela Plain, cut off the possibility of demons' reinforcements to orcs, and protect the rear security of the northern cluster I commanded.
The northern cluster of 300,000 people, commanded by me, consisting of four legions of the Black Dragon, Bilong, Sea Dragon Knights and the Youth Guards, is responsible for the attack on Tobrook Fortress
Because on the Eastern Front
The Empire is in the unfavorable condition of fighting against two

Ruyue also personally took over the Fortress of Solomon in the name of the general. On the surface, she was the position of military supervisor, but in fact she was to restrict the old Red Armored Dragon, so as not to stretch her hands too long for this veteran who is not a general.
Interfere with the military affairs of two frontline commanders, Aland and I
Although I did not receive a similar order to Aland, Emperor Ola knew me very well. If the old Red Ankylosaurus's hand was too long, I would not buy his account at all.

As for my best brother, Bordeaux, Emperor Ola, does not allow him to go with me, the reason is very high-sounding: Auntie Brigitte is just such a son, afraid that he will make some mistakes

The Dragoon plan is too large, and things that are too large are always hard to hide. As early as a year ago, people on the entire continent knew that the center of the imperial military strategy had shifted from demons to orcs.
When the Empire was actively preparing for war, the orcs were not idle either
When the Northern Legion was still three days away from Modanna, the scout cavalry sent in advance sent back the news that the orcs had assembled an astonishing number of troops in the area of Modanna City, and were preparing to fight the imperial army there to the death.
Due to the huge difference in body shape and appearance and the orcs' strong xenophobia, the Empire's intelligence collection work on the Bruce continent was quite unsuccessful, and it was impossible to send spies to spy on secrets before the war.
Although a large number of reconnaissance troops were sent during the war, the intelligence collected was very limited, and even the exact number of opponent's troops could not be identified.
Among the four major legions attacking Brook, the newly formed Youth Guards were the most powerful, with a force of up to 100,000, half of which were new firearms units. The composition of the soldiers was transferred by other legions, and some veterans were combined together according to the ratio of one old and four new ones. According to my recommendation, Orvemas replaced me as the commander of the Young Guards, and the deputy commander was Robin.
In my plan, the Young Guards and the Black Dragon Knights are the aces that annihilate the main force of the orcs
Fire Dragon Gun and Fire Dragon Cannon (hereinafter referred to as artillery) are expensive, the production process is too complex, and the output is greatly limited.
So far, only the Young Guards and the Black Dragon Knights have equipped this weapon in large quantities, while less than one-fifth of the troops of the Sea Dragon and the Blue Dragon Knights are equipped with new firearms.
The Southern Legion commanded by Aland only had the main force of the Imperial Dragon Knights equipped with 200 artillery pieces, and the other legions had not changed at all. At this moment, I concentrated nearly half of the empire's military power, which was correct at all.
After reaching the edge of the Forbidden Demon Area, the Northern Legion stopped advancing and temporarily repaired. A war was about to break out, and a small-scale combat conflict between the two armies
It also puts it on the table in advance like a small dot before the meal
In a small village abandoned by orcs on the edge of the Forbidden Demon Area, a squadron of dracos made up of 100 people (the empire called cavalry equipped with fire dragon spears a dragon cavalry) was surrounded by a small orc regiment of more than 600 people.
Facing a melee corps of six times self, composed of bears, leopards and Comodod dragons, this cavalry squadron equipped with fire dragon guns lined up in a shooting formation and shot continuously, repelling several attacks of orcs in succession, and finally broke out of the thirteen dead in battle at the cost of thirteen people. One of the thirteen dead people was unfortunately hit in the head by scattered debris because the fire dragon gun was overheated and exploded. Five people died in the early stage of the orcs' sudden attack, and the remaining seven were killed during the retreat.
Two hours later, the cavalry brigade who came to reinforce the village again. They found 161 abandoned orc corpses. After the news came, the 161 to 13 record surprised everyone.
The scene at that time was like killing a duck!
Those orcs were rushing from all directions, as numerous as ants!
We shoot continuously, shoot, shoot again
They fell down like cut wheat in rows!
That scene was so spectacular!
The Hundred Cavalry Captains who participated in this battle are now standing in my tent to describe the battle scene
He looked excited, and his mouth was splashing when he spoke. His excited expression seemed completely unbelievable that he was a veteran who had experienced several wars, which made him so lose his composure, who had been grinded into a soldier by the war.
Goridel, who was present, said to me excitedly: How about it? Daxiu, I have said a long time ago that with these two treasures, those four simple-minded four-legged beasts are all waste
This time, the attack on Tobrook Fortress, the Western Amateur scientists led by Goridel also participated in the battle with the army.
I glared at him and said angrily: Don't brag here... You'd better check the wear of the Fire Dragon Gun's chambers they used, and the explosion gun! This kind of ghost thing with limited time and number of usage is too unrest! After driving away Gridel, Orvemas sighed and shook his head:
One Hundred and Sixty-one to Thirteen… The situation is not good!
I also sighed: It's really not good, the power of the Fire Dragon Spear is too great
Robin made a puzzled statement at first, and then he understood the mystery: It’s not good, how could it be bad... Well... it’s really not good!
Yalai, who was taking the record aside, saw that the three of us senior generals were shaking their heads
Put down my pen, look at my face, want to ask, but dare not ask
I saw his expression and pointed him out: If you were King Bemon, what would you think after seeing this 161 to 13 war report? Although Yalai had never seen the Dragoon plan, after the war started, he was a recorder in the Northern Legion, as a recorder, so he knew more than half of the plan.
Yalai comes from a military family
My father and grandpa are all soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, and they are innocent and reliable. In addition, I have the selfish desire to cultivate, so I am qualified to attend such a confidential meeting.
Bite the pen in his mouth and think for a while
Yalai asked me: Sir, are you worried that King Bemon will withdraw his main force from Modanna to Tobrook, which will make our plan to destroy the main force of the orcs in Modanna fail?
I nodded in appreciation, thinking that the child can teach
The most critical part of the Dragoon plan is to pull the main force of the orc out of the protection range of Thor's Hammer.
Before the war, Ovemas and I were both optimistic about the Fire Dragon Spear and Fire Dragon Cannon, but we didn't expect that their power in actual combat would be so shocking that our supreme commander could not sit still.
If King Bemon realized the huge crisis brought by the fire dragon robbery and artillery and retreated his army to Tobrook and could not be held out, then the entire Dragoon plan I carefully planned would become a pile of waste paper
I ordered urgently: I will notify the generals of each legion immediately. Unless the orcs dispatch the Bemon Behemoth Legion, you must not use artillery troops unless you have to! That is our ace, and you must not reveal it until the most critical moment!
When I was worried that King Bemon might be scared away, bad news came one after another
A team of more than 100 people from a certain unit of the Bilong Knights encountered a bear squad with a number of equal numbers at a certain water source. They used spear-arm infantry to cover the fire dragon guns and volleyball guns to rogue guns and damage them! Our army suffered very few casualties.
More than a thousand people from a certain unit of the Black Dragon Knights rushed into Barclay Town in the forbidden demon area, and fought fiercely with the defenders, and won the battle!
Looking at the battle reports of great victory
Orvimas and I smiled bitterly, and secretly blamed ourselves for not considering it carefully
According to the right-wing Sea Dragon Knights, a 500-man unit equipped with 80 fire dragon guns in the legion was attacked by an orc at night last night, almost wiped out, with only seventeen people escaping
After listening to the battle described by the survivor himself
Orvimas and I are in a deeper mood
It's still the forbidden area. Is the early warning and protection magic invalid? How could the orcs sneak into the village?
Report to the Lord, although early warning magic can be used, in the demon suppression area, early warning magic is equivalent to falsehood and will not call the police at all. It is the same as none of them.
What about the Fire Dragon Spear?
In the dark night battle, he was very useless! And at that time the scene had turned into a melee and accidentally injured more people than orcs!
How is the situation of individual fights?
Very bad! We have to use two bear warriors of the same type to barely compete with him! In this ghost place where magic is almost impossible to use, we are very disadvantaged in individual combat. Physical strength, the orcs among the new humans are never comparable to real orcs, but because the body is mixed with blood from other races, the advantage of the orcs of the orcs is that they can cast some small magic to support the battle in battle, which is indeed what the orcs cannot do.
Under normal circumstances, the two sides are basically equal in one-on-one fighting, but in the area of the forbidden and devil-suppressing, the shortcomings of the orc warrior are completely exposed.
Or is it that the power warriors carefully selected for fighting here will lose so badly?
How did Hannibal do that back then? It was so real!
The result of the defeat did not surprise me. What made me most headache was that the orcs seized many fire dragon guns through this battle.
I am not afraid of imitation from my opponents. The manufacturing process of fire dragon guns and artillery is very complex, and the requirements for metal smelting technology are even more abnormal. With the complex gunpowder formula, they are the crystallization of science.
Orcs and demons who know nothing about scientific civilization don't even think of imitating the gourd. I am only worried that King Bemon will be wary after seeing the Fire Dragon Spear seized and will immediately withdraw the army to Tobrook, protected by Thor's hammer, to avoid war.
On the third day of my headache for the premature exposure of the Fire Dragon Spear, the alarm bell rang, and the Black Dragon Knights, who served as the former army, were attacked by three orc legions.
At the same time, the left-wing Blue Dragon Knights and the right-wing Sea Dragon Knights were respectively restrained and attacked by an orc legion.
Looking at the momentum, there is a intention to swallow the vanguard army in a convex position.
With the intention of steady progress, the Northern Legion was not moving fast, and the four legions were less than three kilometers apart from each other.
King Bemon escaped from the most favorable area forbidden demons and came to the area for suppression to launch an attack. This move is somewhat unexpected, but it is also within the calculation range of the pre-war sand table calculation. For this situation, there are already a preparatory plan in the Dragoon Plan.
After making an emergency corresponding deployment in accordance with the pre-war preparatory plan, I left the army and rushed to the front line to inspect the war situation. The responsibility of leading the entire army to fight was entrusted to Orvimas.
Ovemas serves two positions
One is the commander of the young guard army, and the other is the chief of staff of the Northern Legion
His military talent is far above me, and I feel at ease to hand over the command to him
When I arrived on the battlefield, the orc attack had already begun in full swing. On the two-kilometer-long front, three orc legions formed three huge square formations, squeezing towards the Black Dragon Knights.
The forward of the legion who rushed in the front was less than one kilometer away from the defense line of the Black Dragon Knights
Above the Orc Legion, nearly two hundred thunderbirds howled and hovered in the sky. Such a powerful air force made me envious of my eyes.
Due to years of war consumption, the number of thunderbirds, griffins and human-faced birds on the continent has decreased dramatically, among which the human griffins and demons have the human-faced bird troops are the most important.
This time during the imperial expedition to Tobrook, I could only draw out the pitiful thirteen griffins, so I couldn't bear to take them out of Solomon Fortress
If this continues, in a few years, such birds of prey will become extinct on the continent like dragons, and the orcs will not be better. Like the spectacular scene of thousands of thunderbirds spreading over the sky during the Seven Years War, forming a golden cloud, which is hard to appear again.
The one in the middle is the most elite Thirteenth Legion under the throne of Bemon, with two hundred Bemons!
On the east is the Fifth Legion and on the west is the Seventh Legion, all of which are the direct troops of King Bemon. These two troops each have 120 Bemon beasts! According to this situation, on the front of the Black Dragon Knights, King Bemon invested more than 120 thousand troops!
When I stood on the temporary watchtower built on the front line to observe the enemy situation, Hu Te, who was huddled with me, reported the military situation to me in a steady tone.
Depending on the situation, they want to eat us in one go!
I stammered and didn't answer Hu Te immediately
I knew it in my mind that although facing the pressure of three orc legions, it was not easy for King Bemon to make dumplings from the Black Dragon Knights.
The expanded Black Dragon Knights' total strength is as high as 70,000, and the strength of the Northern Legion is second only to the Young Guards.
On the day before the war started, in order to prepare for the general offensive, I had just transferred one-third of the main force of the Young Guards to the front line to join the Black Dragon Knights, and transferred Robin to the front line.
Now, the two troops combined have 20,000 elite heavy cavalry, 25,000 dragon spear soldiers, and 300 artillery pieces. Their strength is not inferior to their opponents in terms of strength.
Sir, you must use artillery. It is difficult to deal with so many behemoths with the Fire Dragon Spear alone!
Seeing that I had not spoken, Hu Te nagged in my ear again. This sentence was what he really wanted to say, because I just issued an order banning the use of artillery not long ago.
When Hu Te and I were talking on the watchtower, all the dragon spearmen on the ground had entered the shooting position dug two days ago, and the cannons prepared to deal with the Behemoth were also placed in the best shooting position.
A small part of the orc troops of the Thirteenth Legion have entered the maximum range of artillery. With my order, the roar of hundreds of artillery will completely tear the myth of the orcs being invincible in the Death Triangle.
I searched through the telescope for a long time. Three orcs forests could not find the trace of King Bimon Des. I felt a little disappointed and put down the telescope and asked Hu Te: Do you think King Bimon's intention in this battle is to throw a stone to ask for directions to test the power of our new weapons, or do you want to eat us in one breath?
Hu Te sighed: I think there are both! If we can't fight against the Behemoth, they can tear our defense apart with just one charge. Without the cover of a powerful magician, any army and the Behemoth Corps face each other head-on battle is no different from suicide.
In the demon suppression area, the magic effect is less than 10% in normal environments. Destructive magic is like scratching the titans against such giant beasts. What's more, before the war, all the magician troops originally belonged to the Northern Legion were transferred to the Southern Legion of Aland. The artillery is the last ace we can deal with the Bemon monsters now!
Agree with you! That old fox is so cunning! It seems that he has to use a cannon!
I sighed and issued an order to allow the firing of the fire reluctantly
