Chapter 45, Orc Legion
After everything was ready, Fang Hao returned to his room.
Lying on the bed, I went over all the plans from my heart.
Tomorrow, after the novice protective shield disappears, the orcs' Fire Blade Tribe will launch an attack on the territory.
This is not a game, but a real war.
If you die, everything is over.
He recruited all the [Wriggling Spine] he had accumulated into troops in order to ensure an absolute advantage in this war.
The development of the territory has far exceeded that of other lords, but it must not capsize at this time.
Lying on the bed.
Turn on the regional channel, it’s relatively deserted today.
The only people who spoke were exchanging items.
It seems that the sudden appearance of the mandatory mission has put a lot of pressure on everyone.
They are all deploying their territory and have no time to talk nonsense in the channel.
Close the channel and immediately enter the state of divine presence.
[The target of the divine arrival, the giant skeleton bat, has a compatibility rate of 45%. 】
When he opened his eyes again, he was already possessed by the giant skeleton bat.
He flapped his wings and soared into the sky, checking the area around his territory to avoid any enemies tonight.
After a patrol, I found that there was no danger near the territory.
Only then did he release his state of divine presence, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep little by little.
……
The second day.
"Master, master."
Fang Hao, who was not yet awake, felt someone saying something in his ear.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Yi'er bending down and calling him softly.
The upper body was lowered, so that the collar of the clothes that barely covered the skin was opened wide, revealing a large area of white and tender skin.
A feast for the eyes.
"Ah!" Fang Hao replied subconsciously.
"Master, didn't you say that you have something important to do today and you have to get up early?" Yi'er explained quietly from the side.
Yes, today is the time for the orcs to attack.
"Yes, yes!" Fang Hao immediately sat up and started to get dressed.
After a simple wash, he walked out of the room and climbed onto the city wall to look into the distance.
The direction of the kobold camp is to the east of the territory, so the Burning Blade Tribe will also come from the east.
Standing on the arrow tower and looking into the distance, no trace of the orcs was found.
There is still a large area outside the territory covered by mountains and forests. It is possible that the opponent is already on the road and is blocked by mountain cols or trees.
Fang Hao sat directly on the ground of the arrow tower and used Divine Presence.
[The target of the divine arrival, the giant skeleton bat, has a compatibility rate of 45%. 】
Outside the territory, troops gathered.
A giant bat skeleton, its eyes glowing with light blue, flashed its wings and flew towards the east.
After crossing the mountains, I saw a large group of orcs approaching me.
It is estimated that in about an hour's journey, we will arrive at the foot of Territory City.
Fang Hao landed the giant skeleton bat on a giant tree.
While deploying the troops, he continued to possess the giant bat with Divine Presence to monitor the movements and types of the orcs.
……
The Burning Blade Tribe.
Last night, the orc scouts returned news of the enemy territory.
There are indeed some undead soldiers patrolling near the territory, but they are not as exaggerated as the kobold leader said.
According to visual inspection, there are a total of five to six thousand, and they are all first-order skeletons at the bottom.
Chief Kent, after hearing the news from the scouts.
Directly ordered the beheading of the kobold leader.
Early this morning, the whole tribe set out and marched all the way to the undead territory.
He must conquer this territory before night falls, avenge his son Kedo, and plunder all the resources of the village.
"Chief, you can see the other side's territory." A warg cavalry said softly as he approached the chief's car.
On the chariot pulled by two wargs, Chief Kent of the Fire Blade was closing his eyes to rest.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, he opened his eyes slightly, "Have you found the other human lord?"
"I didn't see the opponent's lord. He should be hiding in the city wall and not daring to show his face. But this time, the opponent's troops have increased as compared to yesterday, and they have also built defensive facilities such as city walls and defense towers." The cavalry continued.
"Are they still those skeletons?"
"Yes, they are all the lowest-level undead arms."
"Hmph! Speed up and transport the supplies from this territory back to the tribe before dark." Kent continued to order.
"Yes." The cavalryman responded and conveyed the chief's order again.
All the people of the Fire Blade Tribe are in arms, and this time all their fighting power comes out.
Among them were 20,000 infantry, 7,000 spear throwers, and 3,000 warg cavalry.
How could such a powerful fighting force be afraid of those lowly skeletons?
Kent tilted his chin, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He was already thinking about how he should torture the human lord once he caught him?
You definitely can't let him die easily and wait for the torture to the end.
Then chop it into pieces of meat and feed it to the wargs as food.
The team quickly approached, and when they approached the local territory, they also saw the skeleton army arranged under the opponent's city.
The white skeleton is wearing armor and holding weapons and shields.
The number is really quite large, around 100,000.
"Prepare to attack."
Kent laughed secretly at the other party's overestimation of his capabilities and then gave a loud order.
……
On the city wall.
Fang Hao looked at the orc army under the city with a solemn expression.
Even though complete arrangements have been made, I have calculated it countless times in my mind.
But with the war approaching, tension, depression, and various emotions arose in my heart.
Fang Hao looked at the countdown in the Book of Lords, waiting for the opponent to take the lead in attacking.
When the countdown reaches 0, the system prompt will sound again.
[The novice protection period has officially ended. 】
[I wish you all good luck... 】
The protective shield above the territory dissipated little by little like a broken balloon.
The orc army in the distance also blew the horn of attack.
Woo~!
The trumpet sounded.
The orcs became crazy and ferocious, roaring loudly, and launched an attack.
There are no special tactics to speak of.
All the soldiers ran forward together, but at different speeds, and there was a gap.
The ones at the front were the Warg Cavalry.
I want to rely on my fast mobility to carry out a charge attack first.
"The crossbowmen can attack." Fang Hao gave the order.
On the city wall, Fang Hao arranged 1,000 crossbowmen holding light crossbows. After Fang Hao gave the order, they all raised their light crossbows and shot at the rapidly approaching warg cavalry.
The sudden rain of arrows caught the Warg Cavalry by surprise.
The original formation instantly dispersed, distanced themselves from each other, and still followed each other quickly.
Fang Hao stood on the city wall and watched the changes in the cavalry.
"Yier..." Fang Hao called softly.
Yi'er was also wearing leather armor, and her face was full of fear.
"Lord, master."
"Take care of my body and don't let me bump into it." Fang Hao sat directly on the ground.
"Huh?"
Before Yi'er could figure it out, Fang Hao's body fell softly backwards in the next second.
Yi'er stopped the limp Fang Hao, feeling a little at a loss.
Under the city!
[The target of the divine arrival, the skeleton spearman, has a compatibility of 75%. 】
"The spearmen take two steps forward and prepare to meet the enemy." Fang Hao ordered loudly.
All the spearmen took two steps forward and pointed their spears towards the rapidly approaching Warg Cavalry. (End of chapter)
