Chapter 159 It Begins
"here we go."
"here we go."
On the hillside, Sean and Asim looked at the battlefield where the smoke gradually filled the air.
With the threat of the large fleet, the United Army advanced slowly, moving its position forward, and soon approached Gattuso. Looking at this scene, the orcs in the city could do nothing.
"King, are you just going to let them come here?"
On the city wall, Captain Tieniu looked at the approaching human army and felt a little irritated.
"Ha, I would like them to rush in directly and let them know what true bravery is. It's a pity that these cunning humans may not do that."
Cato Lain silently stared at the battlefield without speaking. The Crazy Wolf, the captain on the side, followed the Iron Bull's words.
And the fact is just as Mad Wolf said, the human army advanced steadily, and stopped when it reached a certain level and began to build fortifications. At this position, some of the orcs' conventional long-range attack methods were simply out of reach.
"It seems that these humans are determined to use their artillery to deal with us."
The voice was sweet, and at some point Cunning Fox, one of the four great captains, also came here.
After the position moved forward, the well-prepared human coalition forces built artillery positions at an extremely fast speed, and then the cannons glowing with metallic cold light were pushed up from behind by the coalition forces.
These artillery are not only numerous in number, but also in caliber. Some are even naval guns disassembled from warships. Once this artillery position is constructed and coupled with the fleet outside the port, the entire Gattuso will really be in a state of complete danger. Under the muzzle of human beings, there is no longer any blind spot.
"King, let me go."
After staring at the artillery position that was rapidly taking shape for a while, Mad Wolf spoke.
After the baptism of artillery fire just now, all the orcs understood the power of this kind of artillery.
"Okay, take your wolf cavalry to deal with this human artillery position."
After pondering for a while, Cato Lain agreed to the wolf's request to fight. He understood that this human artillery position must be destroyed even if he paid some price.
"Don't worry, King, my wolf rider and I will not let you down."
Saying,
He saluted Cato Lain, turned around and walked down the city wall.
Ouch, wolf howls sounded one after another after a while, and a black shadow rushed out from Gattuso.
"King, are you just going to let him go?"
Looking at the charging figures of Mad Wolf and his three thousand wolf cavalry, Sly Fox asked.
"Don't worry, Mad Wolf will be fine."
Glancing at Sly Fox, Cato Rhine's pure gold eyes were indifferent. He knew what the other person was thinking.
This time, he agreed to the Crazy Wolf leading the Wolf Cavalry attack. On the one hand, it was because the human artillery positions must be destroyed. On the other hand, he also wanted to use the Crazy Wolf to attract human attention and disrupt the human arrangement.
Aww, the warg is a very large wolf species, but its nature is not as cruel as most wolves. Instead, it is relatively docile. After being tamed, it becomes a very reliable partner of the orcs. It not only sprints like the wind but also has extremely high obedience.
Boom, boom, boom, looking at the charging Orcs and Wolf Cavalry, the warning artillery positions constructed by the coalition forces began to show their power. The blazing shells continued to bombard the wolves, bringing up traces of gunpowder smoke.
"They couldn't help it."
"Yes, shall we go up to him at this time?"
"No, wait a minute."
On a gentle slope at a small angle, two officers were watching the movements of the orc wolf cavalry through binoculars, and behind them were human cavalry ready to go. Even though the war has entered the age of firearms, the cavalry is still on the battlefield. An indispensable force.
"Run it for me."
A passionate roar sounded, and the agile wolf cavalry broke through the blockade of artillery fire. Their extremely fast speed disrupted the airflow, rolled up gunpowder smoke, and formed black flues behind them.
The power of artillery is indeed powerful, but when the number is insufficient, it is difficult to cause effective damage to high-speed moving units such as Wolf Cavalry.
"Let's go, it's our turn."
Repeatedly, the war horses neighed, and with the help of the acceleration of the gentle slope, the human cavalry began to charge. They could not let the wolf cavalry attack the uncompleted positions of the coalition forces.
The ground roared, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and two torrents, one black and one red, began to merge.
Ow, a long and powerful wolf howl suddenly sounded. At the moment when the collision was about to occur, the well-trained horses of the human cavalry suddenly lost control, so that many cavalry fell directly from their horses.
The cavalry confrontation itself was a cruel and efficient method of duel, but this time it was faster than expected. In just one round, the human cavalry was completely torn to pieces.
At the temporary headquarters of the coalition forces, the moment the wolf howl sounded, many officers frowned.
"There are really some people who are not afraid of death. If he dares to come out, then he shouldn't go back."
The sharp eagle eyes flashed with cold light. At this moment, the coalition commander Maz Kanilenka made no secret of his murderous intention.
"Major General Eduri, Major General Bolt will trouble you two this time."
"no problem."
Hearing this, the two men sitting at the conference table quickly stood up and left the temporary command center without hesitation.
"Humans, nothing more."
Above the warg, howling like the wind, licking the blood from its paws, a contemptuous smile appeared on the face of the mad wolf, and behind him was a pile of corpses, with blood staining the ground red.
"Damn, they're coming, fire on me, fire on me."
Bang bang bang, rifles fired volleys, bullets flew everywhere. Faced with such an attack, many orcs groaned and fell to the ground, but more orcs were still approaching.
Creatures like wargs have rough skin and thick flesh. Unless they hit their vital points, rifle bullets can only injure them but not kill them. The orc cavalry's riding skills are quite sophisticated. They try their best to fit the body with the wolf's body. With a movement speed exceeding that, under such circumstances, it would be difficult for the coalition soldiers to cause significant damage to the orcs.
Closer, closer, the bloodthirsty smile of the orcs was clearly reflected in the eyes of the coalition forces. At this moment, a huge one-handed war hammer slammed down on the orc cavalry with the roar of the wind.
Boom, the war hammer hit the ground, like a powerful cannonball, causing a huge roar.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and a huge pit formed on the ground. Standing on the edge of the pit, the mad wolf's face was particularly ugly. The attack just now came too fast and sudden. Although he escaped, the people around him did not. All of them died. At least two hundred orcs died in this pit.
"Not dead?"
As he spoke, a man wearing a military uniform with red hair and holding a hammer in one hand appeared in front of the mad wolf. Next to him, there was another man standing side by side with him, looking at each other with death. His eyes looked at the mad wolf.
