Chapter 2244: Fierce Battle and Tempering
Weapon refiners such as Purple Flame God helped the orc army to refine a lot of equipment.
But these orcs don't like to rely on equipment, and prefer to fight directly.
So Ye Liuyun split their 50,000 people into a team of 10,000 people, letting them fight more with fewer people.
Take turns to attack different enemy forces.
In this way, they don't have an advantage in numbers, so they can only use equipment to reduce pressure.
And once the two sides started fighting, Ye Liuyun no longer gave them time to rest, but marched and fought continuously, and continued to attack forward, exhausting these warlike orcs.
He would even let them step into the enemy's encirclement and watch them fight fiercely.
In this way, he tempered the temper of these orcs.
Gradually, this orc army also suffered heavy losses. When it was integrated by Ye Liuyun again, there were only 30,000 people left.
This made them know that they should reduce losses.
So in the next battle, they began to follow Ye Liuyun's tactical requirements and exert the power of their equipment to the extreme. They could rely on these 30,000 people to resist the siege of 100,000 people and still win.
"Have you learned it?
Being brave and warlike is a good thing, but you should be brave and warlike when you have an absolute advantage, instead of fighting hard.
Otherwise, your tribe will eventually go to extinction!"
Ye Liuyun taught the Tiger King and some leaders.
After these orcs suffered losses, they also learned to be smart and began to learn tactics from Ye Liuyun, and they became more and more comfortable with fighting.
Although there are fewer people now, their combat effectiveness is stronger.
Their own strength is also rapidly improving through continuous fighting.
When Ye Liuyun felt that they were almost there, he began to take them to compete for mineral resources in various places.
Among them, they lurked and interspersed near various demons and demon orc armies many times, and they also knew how to hide their breath and avoid their sharp edges.
Even the 20,000 demon orc slaves who followed them learned a lot from Ye Liuyun.
Therefore, Ye Liuyun's later strategy was executed very smoothly. He seized more than 20 magic crystal veins, more than 30 cities, and countless resources.
Every time he captured a city, Ye Liuyun would demolish it before leaving, which made the demons laugh and cry.
Often when their army came back, the city was demolished by Ye Liuyun.
They couldn't catch up with Ye Liuyun's team.
Even if they caught up, they couldn't beat them and could only be beaten.
Slowly, Ye Liuyun first defeated the forces of the two orcs of the demon clan, incorporated them into his own hands, and let them help mine.
Later, he defeated and subdued the demons.
It was not until this time that he realized that he had unified the demons in the southern part of this world.
In this demon world, except for the southern part that he unified, other places were small tribes scattered everywhere.
Only their Central Empire has the most powerful army, and according to the demons, the Central Empire's army also has armor and high-quality weapons.
Ye Liuyun did not think of going to war with their Central Empire, so he stopped advancing.
But after the Demon Central Empire failed to receive tribute from the southern demons, it sent people to investigate and immediately found that the south was occupied by Ye Liuyun.
Immediately sent out 200,000 fully armed troops to rush to Ye Liuyun.
In fact, the number of demons and demon orcs under Ye Liuyun is more than 200,000.
It's just that Ye Liuyun didn't spend time equipping them.
Fighting hard will definitely suffer.
So Ye Liuyun ordered a general retreat.
And retreat without fighting, leading the Central Army to continue to advance into the south.
Whenever the Central Army hesitated and wanted to stop advancing, Ye Liuyun sent a weakest force of several thousand people to harass the army.
Sometimes this small group of troops can escape, but if they can't, they will be destroyed by the central army.
So in the eyes of the central army, Ye Liuyun's team is simply vulnerable.
So they went deep into the southern hinterland to pursue Ye Liuyun.
That day, they received news that a large number of demon troops were preparing to evacuate in a city not far from them.
So they immediately sent 30,000 people to wipe them out.
When they arrived, they were surrounded by Ye Liuyun's half-orc army.
Because they also had 30,000 people, they thought that Ye Liuyun's fighting style was completely seeking death. They thought that Ye Liuyun just wanted to harass them, and they didn't make any defensive preparations at all, but they were caught off guard by Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun led the army and started the attack directly, catching them off guard.
When they reacted, the formation was already in chaos, and the general leading the troops was shot dead by Ye Liuyun with an arrow, and the soldiers could no longer organize an effective counterattack.
In the end, all 30,000 soldiers were killed, and the armor and equipment were equipped by Ye Liuyun to the 20,000 coolies who had been following him.
These 20,000 coolies have become Ye Liuyun's personal troops.
For the remaining more than 10,000 sets of armor, Ye Liuyun also selected some strong men from the demon orcs to form a 30,000 demon orc army.
The commander of the Central Empire's army did not expect that they would suffer a loss, and immediately led 150,000 troops to chase Ye Liuyun.
But Ye Liuyun let the demons break up into five groups and continue to flee south, attracting the Central Army to chase and kill them.
He led 60,000 fully armed soldiers to attack their camp again, annihilated the 20,000 troops guarding the camp, and seized 20,000 more sets of equipment.
Then they fought and ran away, which made the army of the Demon Central Empire chase them closely.
But along the way, they were always intercepted, usually by a team of 10,000 or 20,000, attacking the rear of their team.
And they always fought and ran away, which made them exhausted.
Suddenly, they found that Ye Liuyun did not run away, but occupied a high ground and began to defend, so they supported their tired bodies and minds and prepared to take Ye Liuyun down in one fell swoop.
But unexpectedly, this time Ye Liuyun fought an offensive and defensive battle with them.
The equipment of the Central Empire Army is indeed much stronger than the weapons in the south.
But they are still a lot worse than Ye Liuyun.
Facing Ye Liuyun's crossbow, they suffered heavy losses.
But their commander still insisted on annihilating Ye Liuyun in one fell swoop, and asked the soldiers to attack continuously.
They finally rushed to the front of Ye Liuyun's army, and encountered dozens of chariots bombarding them at the same time. At this time, Ye Liuyun also launched a counterattack. The 50,000 newly equipped demon orcs followed the chariots and killed them.
The army of the Central Empire was defeated.
Ye Liuyun chased them closely, letting his orcs and demons alternately surround their slower escape team.
At the same time, there were still teams of demons and demon orcs on the road, constantly intercepting them, and each interception could cause their army to lose thousands of people.
