Chapter 584: The Power of Orc Weapons
The orcs were already exhausted, but when they saw the city and the hungry soldiers, they gained strength again, and the already slow-moving team began to speed up again.
The ogre leader is riding on his violent bear. This violent bear has a bad temper and is greedy. Most people cannot get close to it. Even the king of the jungle like Feng Leihu dare not come within a hundred meters of this violent bear.
However, this violent bear has the same resemblance to this ogre, and is very greedy, so the violent bear has become the standard mount of this ogre family.
The ogre is also sleepy and tired now. He was tortured all night last night, and he has been tossing back and forth for most of the day today. If he were not about to run out of food, the ogre leader would have wanted to sleep well for a day before returning to the city. Unfortunately, it is already With no food or water left, the orc army had to retreat urgently.
Seeing the city from a distance, it was still the same as when he left, without any changes. In fact, the ogre leader was not worried that something would happen to the city. After all, there was no force nearby that could challenge him, not to mention the city's defense. Yes, all kinds of defensive weapons hidden in the city can definitely turn the city into a big hedgehog in an instant. Anyone who dares to attack the city will definitely make the opponent fly back.
As for the disappeared group of humans, the ogre is eager for them to come and attack him, so that the other party can taste what it feels like to be beaten and take revenge on him.
But as he walked, the ogre felt something was wrong. If he usually came back from the city, the city gate would open whenever he was one kilometer away from the city gate, and the city gate officer would personally go down to the city to greet him.
But today, they were less than 500 meters away from the city. The city gate was still closed, and the soldiers on the city wall were like wood, standing there motionless, with no one paying any attention to them.
"I've just been out for a day, and these guys are already itchy. I won't teach this city gate official a lesson when I get into the city." The ogre leader secretly decided that all the anger he suffered today will be taken out on this city gate official. superior.
However, just when the ogre leader had not thought about how to torture the city gate officer, suddenly the sound of a giant crossbow was heard from the city wall. This kind of crossbow was invented by the orcs themselves. It can shoot up to two kilometers and is lethal. The power is absolutely huge, and even the cannibal leader dare not say that he can block the attack of this giant crossbow. Moreover, they also added magic explosives they developed themselves into this giant crossbow. As long as it hits a hard object, the giant crossbow will explode. That explosion is definitely more powerful than human missiles.
The cannibal leader was startled when he suddenly heard the sound of a ballista being fired. There were no other enemies around him. Who was this crossbow aimed at? Could it be you?
Just when the cannibal leader was confused, the crossbow arrow came straight towards him. It must be said that the cannibal was slow to react, but his violent bear mount was very alert. When the ballista was launched, the giant bear felt the danger. Without waiting for the ogre leader to issue an order, it jumped directly to the side of the team, over the heads of the soldiers next to it, and then ran wildly. I have to say that even though this stupid bear looks clumsy and huge, when it exerts its strength, it can run faster than a mutant horse.
Just as the violent bear was running like crazy, the arrow that was fired landed directly where the ogre leader was, and penetrated half a meter deep into the soil. If the ogre leader had not been taken away by the violent bear, , this crossbow arrow will definitely give him a chill.
The crossbow arrow did not hit the ogre leader, but the magic explosive contained in the crossbow arrow exploded. Those soldiers who were still in a daze and did not understand what happened were directly impacted by the impact of the explosion and flew into the sky. The orc soldiers in the sky had their hearts and lungs shattered by the explosion and were still dead in mid-air.
At this time, a head poked out from the city wall. It was Li Yuanhong who had become a city gate official. When he saw that the orc leader had run away, he secretly sighed: "What a pity!"
Then he turned back to the soldiers who were ready to shoot and shouted: "What are you doing standing still? Shoot me!"
Those soldiers were waiting for this sentence, so crossbow arrows were fired from the crossbow carts, and the catapults on the city walls also began to fire. These catapults were not firing ordinary stones, but orcs. The stone bombs developed by themselves are more powerful than the crossbows and are equivalent to human aerial bombs. Moreover, these bombs are equipped with the orcs' own secret formula. Even the orcs themselves cannot withstand the explosive impact of this bomb. force.
As a result, the exhausted orc army was suddenly attacked and exploded to the point of howling like ghosts and wolves. Many orcs were sent back to their hometowns directly by their own bombs before they fully woke up.
The ogre leader finally ran out of the explosion attack circle as the violent bear ran wildly. When he turned to look back, he was immediately shocked by the scene behind him.
I saw that the 3,000-strong vanguard he led was completely covered by crossbows and stone bombs. Explosions came one after another, and the shouts were extremely miserable. In less than a minute, his personal guards completely disappeared in the explosion. in the smoke and dust.
"Asshole, are the garrison going to rebel?" the ogre leader roared at the city wall. He didn't understand at all now that his city had been taken over by humans. He thought it was the garrison leader who stayed behind who was going to rebel. .
However, just when the ogre was furious, a crossbow arrow was shot at him again. This time, the violent bear took him out of the explosion circle, but this time the ogre leader finally understood that the attack on the city wall The attacker was definitely not from the garrison, otherwise they would not have carried out this deadly attack.
The orcs have always been relatively straightforward. They don't have any deep grudges and will never eradicate the roots. As long as they defeat the opponent, even if the opponent goes back to recharge their batteries and make a comeback, as long as the opponent admits defeat and withdraws its troops, the opponent will not pursue them. Moreover, the orcs have always been Loyal, his garrison will never rebel.
Knowing this, the ogre leader knew that the attackers he encountered were probably the disappeared humans.
The ogre leader, led by the violent bear, ran quickly away from the city and ran five kilometers in one breath. At this time, a team slowly came from the distance. This team was larger than the ogre leader's. The team doubled to more than 6,000 people.
As soon as the ogre leader saw this team, his nervous expression immediately relaxed. He had been bombarded by his own bombs just now, and he was hit by the explosion wave several times and fell. Once he fell, The fate of death will immediately come to him.
At this time, this team is the logistics force escorted by the Tiger General. It is called logistics but is actually a non-direct force. This team is responsible for leading the siege vehicles behind, so the speed is relatively slow, and the ogres The leader was anxious to return to the city to rest first, so he was a little far away from the troops led by the Tiger General.
At this time, the tiger general heard faint explosions in the direction of the city, which made him have a premonition that something bad was going to happen, so he urged the team to move forward faster. Unexpectedly, at this time, he saw a man riding a violent horse. The bear rushed toward them, and the man looked very much like the cannibal leader.
"Everyone stop advancing and line up to meet the enemy! Archers are ready to fire arrows at any time!" Although he looks like a cannibal leader, the tiger general has learned well now. He is no longer as arrogant as before, but has become more cautious in everything. , he now puts safety as his first priority, so when he sees someone coming, his first reaction is to prepare for a fight.
Following the Tiger General's order, all the troops immediately took action. The shield warriors in front immediately put their shields in front and built a shield defensive wall, while the archers behind them bent their bows and nocked arrows one by one, aiming their arrows at The ogre leader is coming at full speed.
This move startled the ogre leader. He had just guessed that the city was occupied by humans, but he was not sure. At this time, he saw tigers lining up to meet the enemy. He thought that the tiger general was preparing to rebel.
So the frightened ogre leader slowed down and shouted loudly: "It's me, don't let go of the arrow!"
Upon hearing the sound, the tiger general confirmed that it was the big leader, so he quickly shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Remove the alert and stay where you are!"
With a "swipe" sound, the shield bearers put away their shields, and the archers also put down their bows and arrows, but they were still in a state of combat readiness and did not relax.
The tiger general hurriedly came up to meet the ogre leader: "Big leader, what happened in front? Why did I hear the explosion of our city defense weapons team?"
"Oh, don't mention it. I don't know if the city has been occupied or the garrison is in rebellion. Now those people on the city wall are using our weapons to bombard my troops. I estimate that by now, two-thirds of my troops have already People have been damaged inside." The ogre felt helpless for the first time, and this time he suffered the defeat himself.
"What?" The tiger general was shocked. If the garrison in the city rebelled, he could still persuade them to surrender, but if it was occupied by humans, then he would really be helpless. You know, now the entire It can be said that the orc army has returned from a defeated battle, and has lost all its food and grass. The troops have no fighting spirit at all. At this time, the city is lost, and the only thing waiting for them is destruction.
"It's not sure yet. My troops were attacked before they reached the city. I escaped from death because of a catastrophe. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have been the first to die." The ogre leader added that he had drowned out all the achievements of the violent bear.
After the tiger general heard this, he sat on the back of the green bull and remained silent for a long time. At this time, a figure came behind him. It was the captain of the lynx tribe who had spoken for the tiger general before.
"What happened, Brother Tiger Man? Why doesn't the team move forward?"
The Lynx Tribe has always had a very embarrassing position among the Orc Tribe. Their power is not even as good as the Rat Tribe, which is looked down upon by everyone. Their force is not as powerful as the ferocious beast Tribe. Their population size, are there Orcs like the Dog Tribe and Cat Tribe? There are many, so they can only attach themselves to the big orc clan, and they chose the tiger clan.
