Chapter 632 Anticlimactic

For them, the supplies are sufficient and the supplies are sufficient to send.

Undersupply There are undersupply tactics.

At the beginning, when the city walls were in disrepair and the personnel and equipment were insufficient, they were still able to withstand the invasion from the Odin orcs.

Now that the situation has been greatly improved, it is impossible for them to lose the courage of the bloody battle.

Broken Blood Castle is famous all over the world, and it is not without reason that the Broken Vessel Defense Line has been able to stand for so many years.

Sean sighed inwardly.

The current broken line of defense should be the strongest moment in history.

Last year's trade bonus has improved their equipment several levels.

And this kind of economic development has only just begun, and the morale of the soldiers who have broken the line of defense has not been corrupted by money and interests, and still retains their original bravery.

In the future, the equipment of the pulse-breaking defense line may become better and better, and the same bravery will also be eroded.

This is from the corrosiveness of capital.

This in itself is a matter of gain and loss.

Of course, this matter is not completely impossible to resist.

That is faith.

The belief here does not refer to the belief of the Holy See of Ether.

But a general reference.

The collar badge that the Yong Ye army leader is promoting.

The belief of the Byron Alliance that guards the line of defense.

It's all a kind of faith.

When the faith is implemented in the hearts of every soldier and everyone is united, it is the most powerful moment for this army.

Seeing that the morale was available, Grand Duke Cedric laughed and said: "With the bravery of the generals, no matter how powerful Ulan Bari is, he can't think about the next step. Okay, let's assign specific combat tasks now, Esmond General."

"Yes." General Esmond responded.

"You are in charge of the western front of Blood Castle. Haricagai, who is in charge of the attack on the Odin orc side, is Ulan Bari's number one minion. He must follow through on the opponent's orders and spare no effort to launch an attack. Therefore, you The tactics are based on defense, and don’t give the opponent any opportunity to take advantage of it.” Grand Duke Cedric fully combined the information he had at Blood Castle with the information Sean had stolen.

The Rangers of Broken Blood Castle are not in vain. The two sides have been fighting for so many years, and they have a lot of information on the high-level intelligence of the Theodin Empire.

"Obey." General Esmond ordered.

"General Pedro, you are in charge of the eastern front of Blood Castle. Hai Ridong, who is in charge of this direction, is your old opponent. This old fox has too many calculations in his heart and will not be loyal to Ulan Bari. This time He will definitely be as usual, bluffing and coping with the matter. If he can seize the opportunity, he will be given two hard punches to make him timid, but be careful of Orilheke, this guy may wander on this line. " Grand Duke Cedric ordered again.

General Pedro patted his chest, grinned and said, "Don't worry, Hai Ridong is the defeated one of his veterans. He couldn't pull out the waves before, but can he pull it out this time? As for Erile and Kena A savage bear, more than brave, not enough wisdom, can't play too many tricks. If the two are combined and cooperate seamlessly, you still need to be careful, but the two tribes have been feuding for a long time, and it is good if they meet without fighting. Don't say it's cooperation."

"Don't rely too much on the enmity between them. These people are profit-seeking people. Maybe they will give up their previous prejudices for the greater good." Grand Duke Cedric warned, "Be careful, this kind of There's no room for any chances."

"Understood." General Pedro nodded.

"Let's prepare for the battle! If you break your pulse, you will win." Grand Duke Cedric waved his hand and said confidently.

"Duanmai will win." All the generals of Duanmai Blood Castle stood up and said.

After all the generals retreated, the Shadow Soul Eater came out from the shadows, and said with a smile: "Seeing the high morale of the soldiers, I am relieved. It is very difficult to make meritorious deeds here, and it is estimated that within three or four months, they will have to go back in despair."

Grand Duke Cedric did not hide his true emotions in front of Sean, and a cloud of mist flashed across his face: "I am not worried about this war, what I am worried about is the next comeback of the Theodin Empire, All the attacks they are launching now are like a kind of trial and adaptation, testing the power of black powder and adapting to it. When they come to attack next time, not only will they be prepared for this, but they may also Bringing a large number of black powder kegs here, the power of the line of defense we relied on in the past will be greatly weakened."

Obviously, Grand Duke Cedric knew very well how bad a person's character would be if he corrupted it.

The Theodin Empire didn't know about black powder before, but once they knew it, they would definitely try to get it.

This thing is too destructive to the city wall.

Without the support of the city wall, the Odin orcs' superiority in numbers would undoubtedly be revealed.

"This is something that will inevitably happen after technological progress." Xiao En is not worried about this at all, "When they come next time, we will not only have new tactics, but also launch new weapons. As long as we can ensure that we run ahead of them, such a large-scale use of weapons will be a big burden even for the Theodin Empire, and within two or three years, they will not even think about moving."

"It's good that Earl Sean has confidence in this aspect, but in the future, he will need to rely more on it." Grand Duke Cedric smiled meaningfully.

Obviously, the complaint just now was not out of thin air, but contained a deep meaning inside.

Now he is even more sure that the leader of the Yongye Army holds a weapon that is more advanced than black powder.

It seems that little Sophie sees farther than herself, and is tied to the leader of Yongye army. This move is considered to be the right move.

Grand Duke Cedric is now the father-in-law looking after his son-in-law, and he loves Sean more and more, even in the state of Shadow Soul Eater, he feels a bit cute.

...

May 8th.

The moment the sun has just risen.

The army of Theodin Empire launched a full-line attack on the Duanmai defense line on time.

The overwhelming Odin orcs were like ants, screaming and rushing towards the high wall of the Broken Vessel Defense Line.

Whether it is facing the black powder kegs that open mountains and crack rocks, or the rain of arrows that blocks the sky and the sun.

They seem to be fearless, and they are completely different from the previous ones that were blown up and collapsed.

Not only because of the previous repeated trials, these Odin orcs already knew a little bit about black powder, and their fear was not as serious as before.

It was also because of the siege this time, not only were the expelled herdsmen cannon fodder, but also a large number of elites. They played an effective leading and supervisory role in the middle, and did not give those herdsmen cannon fodder a chance to be timid.

If you go forward bravely and get blown away by a black powder keg, or hit by a sharp arrow, it depends on the chance.

If you shrink back and get cut down by those ferocious supervising soldiers around you, it will definitely be a matter of minutes.

In addition, the Odin orcs still fully absorbed the previous combat experience.

No longer lined up in a dense formation, unless the simple siege equipment is carried, the interval is more than five meters, and the formation of skirmishers is already immature.

The ears are blocked like those war horses.

The benefits of doing so are obvious.

Without hearing the terrifying sound of the black powder keg exploding, the deterrent effect on them was naturally minimized.

As for the bad.

Once the Odin orcs launched an offensive, they didn't have too complicated commands. This time, they were only allowed to move forward, not to retreat.

The impact is almost nonexistent.

Before charging, their leather robes had just been soaked in icy water. Although it would greatly increase the weight of the leather robes, it had a miraculous effect on the secondary splash damage after the explosion of the black powder keg, and rarely appeared in human form again. The case of the torch.

Even if it is really ignited, there is still time to pick it up and throw it away.

Although the Odin orcs have nouns such as barbaric, backward, and rude hanging on their heads, they don't mean stupid.

There are many smart people in there. When life is threatened, they quickly come up with a countermeasure. Others see that it works, so naturally they follow suit.

The use of black gunpowder in the Broken Vessel Defense Line is too vulgar and simplistic.

There are mainly two types of long-range throwing by trebuchets and falling down from the top of the city.

Not to mention the current leader of the Yongye army, even the original leader of the Yongye army is no match.

Not only because they started too short and didn't have time to delve into it.

Also because of the quality of personnel, the two are not comparable.

In this kind of offensive and defensive battle, it is difficult to have clever strategies and tactics, especially when both sides are prepared.

Both sides are not only desperate, but also courage and will.

Whoever has more courage and can persevere until the end will be the final winner.

In the beginning, the pulse-breaking line of defense with black powder kegs and a large number of arrows was more advantageous.

The courage of the Odin orcs couldn't make up for the inferior equipment.

Not to mention rushing to the top of the city, there is no chance of even rushing to the corner of the wall.

But as the war continued.

The tide of battle is slowly turning.

The strength of the Odin orcs this time is too strong.

Even under the indiscriminate bombardment of hundreds of thousands of black powder kegs and the shooting of millions of sharp arrows.

The number of Odin orcs didn't seem to decrease significantly, and every attack was densely populated, with a saturated attitude.

Although the arsenal behind the Duanmai defense line is producing at full capacity, bringing up the black powder kegs continuously, compared to the long front, the thousands of black powder kegs thrown out every day are just a drop in the bucket.

In the end, it was inevitable to fall into the bloody battle of the past.

Hit with stones, chop with weapons, and even use your teeth when necessary.

When on the brink of life and death, there is not much difference between man and beast.

The first to get into a hard fight was neither the Broken Blood Fort, nor those small fortresses and fortresses, but rather small ones like Hukou Fort.

Compared with those small fortresses and fortresses, this kind of fortress usually has less obvious geographical advantages, which is convenient for certain Odin orc siege troops to deploy.

And in terms of material reserves, it is not as good as the Broken Blood Fort.

The attack is fierce and consumes a lot, so it is naturally easier to run out.

Once the black powder kegs and arrows are exhausted, this place will be attacked by the Odin orcs.

It is difficult to change the quantity, after all, this is limited by the terrain.

What has changed is the quality, from the original cannon fodder of herdsmen mixed with elite soldiers, all of them have become elites who have experienced many battles.

These people have extremely rich combat experience, and are usually taller and stronger than the Byrons, plus they are born with magic-like skills.

Once they climbed to the top of the city, without three or two soldiers joining forces, it would be difficult to drive them off the top of the city, let alone kill them.

As for the knights and grand knights, their role in such super-large battles is severely weakened, and their number is their biggest disadvantage.

The whole war was still dominated by recruits and retinue knights.

It didn't take long for some fortresses to change hands several times.

As soon as the Odin orcs captured it with their front feet, the blood castle with a broken foot would organize reserves and elites to recapture it.

However, even if these castles and fortresses are regained, most of them will be severely damaged.

The first thing the Odin orcs did when they captured the fortress was not to repair it, but to wreak havoc and demolition.

Once it is recaptured by the opponent, it will be convenient for them to attack the city next time.

Therefore, which castle has fallen once, its defense difficulty will be greatly increased, and there will be repeated changes of hands.

Sometimes, out of overall consideration, the commander of this section of the defense line even had to order to abandon the defense, and transfer the troops torn down to the surrounding fortresses to strengthen the defense.

Even if the Odin orcs have mastered several fortresses, the significance is usually not particularly great.

Once these fortresses are abandoned, it means that the pulse-breaking line of defense will mobilize a cavalry to stand by nearby.

If the Odin orcs flooded in from this direction, they would be bitten by them, and then cavalry would come from all directions and eat them alive.

It is meaningless to just take a few passes without taking down a large number of broken pulse defense points or broken blood fortresses.

The small-scale influx is only increasing capital for the brilliant record of the Broken Blood Cavalry.

Although the offensive was unprecedentedly fierce, the Theodin Empire did not create an unexpected ending.

After continuously attacking the Duanmai defense line for more than two months, they had to withdraw completely to the north and embarked on the road back to the Xiodin Empire.

They were defeated not so much by the Stracheys as by themselves.

The consumption of millions of Odin orcs and tens of millions of livestock is really amazing.

In less than three months, the hundreds of kilometers of grassland outside the Duanmai defense line, the grass that just grew this year, was eaten up, and in many places even the grass roots were gnawed off by the extremely hungry cows .

It is estimated that in the next few years, the vegetation here will be much sparser than normal.

If the fight continues, it will not be a question of whether the Broken Pulse defense line can be captured. A little carelessness will lead to a big collapse.

Although Ulan Bari was angry, he was not yet so angry that he would risk everything for revenge.

When the Theodin Empire withdrew, it didn't just disperse.

Instead, the east and west lines continued to suppress, and the Chinese army, the main force, slowly retreated.

If the Strachey family sent blood knights to pursue them, they would directly fall into the pocket formation of Theodin Empire.

The two wings cooperate with the main force, attacking from three sides, and directly eat the broken blood cavalry that the Stray family relies on.

Once this well-known cavalry is eaten, the Southern Expedition of the Theodin Empire will turn defeat into victory and achieve an unprecedented victory.

Without the cooperation of the cavalry, the defensive power of the Broken Pulse line of defense would be weakened by 30%, and the Theodin Empire would attack in a big way next time.

Even with a large amount of black powder in the Broken Vein line of defense, it is estimated that it will be difficult to resist.

Defense does not mean that mobile forces are not needed.

Throughout the entire defensive battle, the Broken Blood Cavalry played an indispensable role in it.

They are not only on the way to attack, but also on the way to fight the fire.

Wherever there is a big problem in the fortress, they will be there.

Most of the fallen fortresses were recoiled by them.

Even the brave Odin orcs couldn't hold back with a group of hundreds of broken blood knights.

After the main force of the Theodin Empire retreated, the troops on both wings retreated in turn.

The broken blood knight still didn't dare to attack rashly.
