Chapter 705 "Insurance"!
"Is that the power of totem protection? What a magical power!"
Opening the eyes of insight and looking at the scarlet mist shrouding the orc fortress in the distance, Andy said this sigh.
At this point in time, they have arrived at their destination.
The army is preparing for the war, and the scouts have begun to explore the perimeter of the fortress and deploy dispersal devices.
There is also a small knight group high in the sky, dispersing the gray clouds of war high above.
Brand has also brought members of the library to join forces with the "Gilded Team" and their teams.
Yersen has his own bodyguards, Louise has her slave army, Andy and Finn each have a team of family mages and servants, and other young noble descendants also have their own bodyguards. The total number of people is about two thousand.
Next to them are the baggage vehicles of the various pioneering legions of the army, as well as other soldiers of their noble pioneering legion.
——In the next battle, their noble pioneering army will serve as a guard to protect the safety of the army's baggage.
——As the "Gilded Regiment", Yersin and others are responsible for the defense of this small area.
Although they are all new here, it is their first time to participate in the war with the orcs.
But not to mention that they all have their own trump cards.
In addition, they have the backing of a high-level military armed force with a great record in the Library.
So in theory, there is no problem with this arrangement!
At this moment, looking at the fortress in the distance, the eyes of the members of the Gilded Team were full of novelty.
Although I was still a little nervous on the road, I felt the atmosphere of the battlefield and the high morale of the soldiers.
Looking at the huge war weapons erected in the distance.
Most of their inner tension was dispelled.
As they gathered together to comment on the fortress in the distance.
Mr. Mesa rode his war horse and approached, then smiled and said to everyone:
"Although our task is to protect the baggage, there is no task of attacking the fortress.
But everyone also Be prepared for battle.
Recently, the orcs have been destroying our logistics and delaying our Northern Expedition.
It is very possible that they will attack the fortress in the middle of the attack. There are orcs coming for a sneak attack.
If this happens, the defense of this area will be left to you.
Based on your specific performance, I will take credit for you! ”
When the topic of asking for merit comes up, everyone’s morale rises unconsciously!
——They came specifically to the frontline battlefield, not just to watch the show from the sidelines!
Not long after, the army was ready.
The long-range strike methods began to show their fangs, and the attacking legions officially began to move forward!
Feel the trembling earth and the continuous sounds of battle like thunder.
Yersen and the others couldn't help but feel excited.
"Look at the top of the building on the far right! A big orc has appeared!"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes quickly focused on it.
——I saw a huge wild boar wearing armor and carrying a battle ax, holding a bow and arrow to carry out long-range attacks on the attacking legions.
Every arrow wrapped in scarlet will is shot out, exploding sonic boom clouds in the air, and causing particularly conspicuous ripples on the shield of the siege shield vehicle!
While observing, a taller tauren appeared in another location inside the orc fortress.
Then the third, the fourth...the ninth!
The appearance of so many large orcs immediately put huge pressure on the attacking troops.
Each legion leader also used the legion's secret skills to act as a human shield at the front.
Correspondingly, our own ordnance also began to adjust its angle and cover the location of the big orc.
However, for the big orcs who have been strengthened by the power of totem protection. There are not many weapons that can pose a threat to them.
Ordinary ordnance can only bring them a little interference.
Such as Mingguang Heavy Crossbow or even Rosenkar's Scorching Fire Crossbow, there are only a few top weapons that can release powerful magic attacks.
What's more, the "Battle of Mountain Fortress" two months ago also caused the Eastern Allied Army's legions to lose a large number of ordnance.
So at least in this battle, these big orcs can only be dealt with by the leaders of each legion and high-level military armed forces.
The obvious situation is: they can handle it too!
After a period of hard work and paying a small price, the army successfully advanced to the fortress.
Immediately afterwards, equipment for destroying the city was set up.
The thick wall outside the fortress was quickly broken through by the army!
From this moment on, the battle between the two sides has become fierce!
One by one, the legion leaders and the big orcs began to fight against each other, and two high-level military armed forces roamed around to provide support!
More and more Imperial warriors are crossing the fortress outer walls.
They cooperated with each other and relied on various instruments to demolish the fortress buildings inside the fortress.
Accordingly, the orc army also tried its best to stop it.
Saw this scene from behind.
Yersin couldn't help but start to feel a little bit anxious.
I was thinking of discussing the attack with Brand.
But when he turned his eyes, he saw Brand leisurely chewing berries while observing the battle.
——It seems that the battle in the distance is very "eating"!
After noticing his gaze, Brand gave him a questioning look.
——Would you like some too?
After a moment of silence, Yersen reached out and took a berry from Brand's hand.
He opened his mouth and took two bites, feeling the sweetness of the pulp spread in his mouth, and Yersin's restless mood quickly calmed down.
——I have just come to the battlefield, so there is no need to be so anxious about meritorious service. There will definitely be many opportunities in the future!
Then, he said curiously:
"In this battle, do we only have the task of guarding the baggage?
Although this type of task must be Merits and war contributions will be shared, but the specific amount shouldn't be too much, right?
Or is this to give us some time to adapt to the battlefield, so we specifically gave up the riskier option? "
After swallowing the pulp in his mouth, Brand slowly explained:
"We have certainly considered the time and space for the legion recruits to adapt to the battlefield.
But at the same time, we have not given up on more profitable options.
In fact, in addition to the task of guarding the baggage this time, we also have the task of responding to emergencies.
In the event of an unexpected situation such as a Titan orc attack.
We will act as 'insurance' and handle accidents full-time to ensure that this battle can proceed smoothly.
Don’t forget, there is a real possibility of encountering Titan Orcs this time! ”
Hearing Brand’s explanation and combining it with the library’s past achievements, Yersin also understood a little bit.
——Unlike the other two high-level military forces on the battlefield, Brand Germany's library mage group has been recognized as one of the top mage groups in the empire, so of course it can assume greater responsibilities
After taking a look or two at the slowly advancing army inside the castle in the distance, Yersin asked again:
"So it seems that there is no accident this time? Then we can win the war in vain Contribution and meritorious service?”
Brand shook his head and said:
“The battle is not over yet, we can’t draw a conclusion until the end.”
Looking at Bu. Rand's steady look made Yersin agree with a smile:
"You're right!"
