Chapter 631: After not seeing each other for a few months, have all the orcs become so brave?
“That’s right!”
Brand also agrees with Mr. Cecil’s idea.
When the army pushes forward, the only thing that can stop them is the gray screen of war.
But warriors who are not afraid of death orcs, as well as carefully built fortresses and fortifications!
The greatest use of the orcs' gray fog of war is not to confront them head-on.
Instead, they gather superior forces and carry out precise attacks on their weak points or supply lines.
Furthermore, because it is at a disadvantage in detecting intelligence, the empire is bound to act safely and step by step.
——The gray fog of war can effectively slow down the offensive pace of the Imperial Legion!
To change this, the empire needs to invest more in intelligence detection.
Thinking of this, he turned to look at the gray fog of war at the end of the northern field of vision, covering the sky and the ground.
Brand feels that this may not be an easy task.
While thinking, the team in front began to walk aside.
A team lined up in a long line, coming towards you.
Different from the teams we met before.
Many people in this team have bandages on their bodies.
There are also some injured people with pale faces lying on the carriages transporting supplies to rest.
Other soldiers who were not injured were like guards, protecting the injured in the center of the team.
After taking a closer look, Mr. Romien explained:
“This should be the team of wounded soldiers who retreated from the border legions.
Recently, there have been a lot of fighting on the border.
The orcs organized many large-scale attacks.
Although these attacks were repelled by us.
But many soldiers were injured or even killed in these battles.
Those who are seriously injured and require a long time to recover will be sent to a safer rear area to rest and recuperate. ”
Hearing this, Brand nodded understandingly.
While riding a war horse, Brand saw Grand Master Mesa chatting with a burly warrior wearing shiny high-end armor on the side of the road.
From the emblem on the warrior's armor, Brand realized that this gentleman, like his Uncle Anthony, was a commander of the Imperial Infantry Corps.
At the same time, he should also be the leader of this team.
Because he didn’t know each other, Brand didn’t go over to join in the fun.
After summoning the light screen of the empty shadow screen, Brand began to check the border situation on the intelligence map.
At this point in time.
The border area north of their location does not have the red star for the orcs.
It was their destination, a battle was breaking out near Spruce Castle.
——Two big orcs are leading the legion to attack the border blockade!
In the past few days, every time Brand checked the intelligence map, he could find that the border of the empire was being attacked by the Orc Legion.
Like now, in addition to the long border near Spruce Castle, there are 9 other areas that are in a similar state of war.
It is conceivable how much pressure the legions guarding the border area are under.
But they can't retreat either.
Once the defense in the border area is abandoned.
The gray curtain of war will completely spread southward.
At that time, the orcs will cross the border even more unscrupulously, cutting off the connections between the fortresses, and causing them even greater trouble!
Just when Brand was sighing.
The infantry regiment transporting the wounded passed them by, and Lord Mesa rode up on his horse.
Brand is seen looking at the intelligence map.
Mr. Mesa slowed down, followed him, and looked at him curiously. Immediately afterwards, he said:
“There seem to be quite a lot of orcs in the north of Spruce Castle.
Although the soldiers of the Imperial Legion blocked the ground, the sky was still dark. There is no other way.
In the past two days, there have been frequent sightings of hawks in the area around Spruce Castle.
On our journey this afternoon, there is a certain possibility of encountering the Eagle Man. "
After learning about such a thing, Mr. Romien on the side said leisurely:
"If there is really an attack by the Yingmen, then you must protect us logistics personnel. There are also baggage vehicles. "
Hearing this, Mr. Mesa smiled and asked:
"The Holland Family Knights and the Library Mage Group are guarding you on the left and right. What are you afraid of?
Besides, it's only somewhat possible.
With a team of tens of thousands of people like ours, even if the orcs want to attack, we must weigh our own strength! "
As Master Mesa finished speaking, Brand said:
"Uncle Romine, please don't worry, the library can enter combat mode at any time. "
After saying this, looking at the dark clouds above his head, Brand was a little curious and said:
"By the way, Uncle Mesa, since our detection methods cannot penetrate the gray screen of war.
Will there be big orcs with their legions ambushing inside, and then looking for suitable targets for raids?"
The elder Mesa nodded and said:
“Of course it is possible.
In fact, such a thing just happened yesterday afternoon.
Since half a year ago, a big orc eluded our detection circle and sneaked into the border.
The Military Affairs Department specially formed many blocking teams specifically to target the infiltrating big orcs, and specially allocated a batch of high-end armaments including the big knight golem.
Once a large orc suddenly appears in the area within the border, these blocking teams will immediately set out with weapons to block it.
So far, several large orcs have been killed by our interception team.
Yesterday afternoon, although the big orc who infiltrated in the gray fog of war was not left behind by us, he was also seriously injured.
The accompanying elite Eagle team was also killed by us. "
After explaining this, Mr. Mesa looked up at the dark clouds in the sky.
Then, he suddenly said helplessly:
"But again, Speaking of which, in yesterday's surprise attack, we certainly inflicted heavy losses on the attackers.
But before the blocking team arrived, we also suffered a lot of losses, which allowed the orcs to seize the opportunity.
Therefore, there are still certain risks when marching in the wild! ”
Chatting along the way, we stopped to rest and eat at noon, and continued marching in the afternoon.
The most unexpected thing is:
They did encounter an attack!
< br>When the team reaches an open area
Suddenly there was a "black rain" in the sky, falling silently!
The most powerful Mr. Holland was the first to discover the anomaly!
“Attention, there are enemies in the sky.”
After the warning, the power of the Great Knight swept across the sky.
The "black rain" in the sky exploded into countless black feathers in an instant, causing a violent storm in the surrounding area!
Then, they dissipated into nothingness!
Seeing such a scene, Mr. Romien said with some surprise:
“With this number of black-winged spears, there are probably not a few hawks in the sky!
No wonder Dare to attack a team of tens of thousands of people like us!"
On the side, Mr. Robert shrugged and said:
"There is no doubt that this is because we are transporting supplies, so we want to try to cause damage.
But what makes me more curious is:
There are clearly hundreds of people in our team The mage wearing the mage robe is not wearing any disguise, he is obviously not an ordinary legion!
Have we not seen each other for a few months, have the orcs north of Spruce Castle become so brave now?”
