MTL - Cthulhu Gonfalon-Chapter 922 ·Blood war (below)
It is getting late.
The front line of the human side has retreated and retreated, at least two or three miles back.
The battle lines in these two or three are really in the air. Every time humans step back, they must sacrifice many soldiers. Every time you step back, you have to fill in a few lives to avoid the battle line collapse.
Although the human commanders have tried their best to seize every fighter as much as possible, the power gap is not compensated by wisdom. Even if they tried their best, they could not recover the defeat.
What they can do is to defeat as much as possible without chaos.
Behind the human front, the goddess of virtue is as heavy as water.
“Do you need us to attack?” asked a half-powered man.
The goddess shook his head and silenced for a long time before he said, "Retreat to the Great Wall defense line and let them attack the city!"
This is also one of the original tactics, but no one has thought that the battle that everyone thought should be able to win easily, eventually turned out to be like this.
Fortunately, the Great Wall is still there.
There is this line of defense that separates the human kingdom from the orc country in the eastern part of the northern land. Even if the orcs have an advantage, they will easily win.
Even without the help of magic, humans can consume the advantages of the land and the number of people.
The gods did not fall, but the connection with the humans had some problems. When the problem is ruled out, it is the time for humans to counterattack!
At that time, the disadvantages of the tired orcs in terms of strength will be completely exposed, as long as a storm, they will let them collapse across the board!
Until then, all humans have to do is to endure hardship.
The night does not stop the two sides from fighting, nor does it delay the withdrawal of humanity.
The orc emperor Iloi stood in the chariot, the night wind blew his long hair, and the lion's golden hair had turned into white because of the old, but the hair was not dry, just like the enthusiasm and fighting spirit in his chest.
"Humans are withdrawing. They probably want to retreat to the Great Wall." From the beginning of the war to the present, he spoke for the first time. "If you want to let them flow more blood, you must start a storm now."
"We don't have enough power to storm." A veteran of the staff committee sighed and said, "Although the reserve team still has it, considering the follow-up siege war, our soldiers need to rest now."
Ilo nodded slightly. He was not good at the art of war. He always respected the opinions of professionals and was good at it.
Just then, a young staff member suddenly opened his mouth and said loudly: "The emperor has a kneel, I have a suggestion!"
This kind of very unconcerned behavior must be severely reprimanded in the human kingdom, but there is no problem among the orcs. They do not care much about "qualification" or "rules".
Ilo looked at the other side with interest. The first thing I noticed was the pair of fox ears. There is no doubt that this is a member of the Wilder family who has always been called the "wise man."
"Little Wilder, what advice do you have?" asked the emperor.
The young fox was excited by the emperor's friendly attitude, his face was reddish, he took a deep breath twice, and then said in as calm a tone as possible: "I think we should send some mobile troops to destroy the human logistics. And supplies."
The emperor glimpsed, since the beginning of the federal civil war in the gold coin, the notoriety of the "piston unit" can be said to be unknown, no one knows. The countries of the mainland, after discussion, even unanimously adopted a treaty banning the use of mobile units to attack enemy logistics and civilians. Now, Little Wilder suggested that the orc empire should form a mobile unit. This is tantamount to unilaterally tearing up the treaty. For the orcs who have always praised credit, it is quite a shameful thing.
Emperor Ilo is also a person who values credit, so when he heard this suggestion, the first reaction was to be surprised, and then he wanted to refuse.
However, he did not immediately speak, but looked at the other members of the staff.
As a monarch, he should first consult the ministers before making a decision.
The members of the staff were shocked and angry, but then they showed their thoughts. After a while, several of the oldest veterans nodded and agreed.
"The treaty is nothing. It is now meaningless. This war is a big battle between the orcs and the human race. The winner becomes the hegemon. The loser is likely to be driven out of the main plane. If so, of course, whatever means can be used. There is no need to worry about it at all."
"Yeah, obeying credit is to let the neutrals support us. Now the whole main plane has been involved in this war, either a friendly or an enemy, and there are any neutrals! Since there are no neutrals Now, why should we talk to them about credit?"
"But be careful, you can't engage in a massacre, or you will irritate the void mask..."
"The Void Mask has clearly stated that except for the massacres and refugees, He does nothing, as long as the maneuvering forces do not do well, he will not intervene."
"What can't it be fire?"
"This...we have to discuss it..."
Emperor Ilo nodded and asked the staff to discuss the issue.
However, the Staff Committee made recommendations before beginning to discuss this issue.
"Your Majesty, since we are going to send a mobile unit to attack the rear and supply lines of human beings, then we don't have to think about the problem of siege." Still the oldest veteran said, "The reserve team doesn't have to rest anymore, continue to storm." Now that we have the advantage, we can kill more and kill more!"
Emperor Ilo naturally accepted his opinion, and the order was conveyed.
Accompanied by this order is more tragic killing than the day, and more bloodshed.
After killing one day, both sides are tired. Even if the reserve team can rest during the day, it is difficult to rest well in this environment, so the state of each other is somewhat poor. However, the orcs can use large-scale magic to quickly restore the state of the soldiers, but the human side who has exhausted the mana does not.
To make matters worse, the orcs generally have dim vision and even dark vision, and nights do not hinder their sight. Humans can't do it. Even with torches and fires, most human soldiers' eyes are greatly hindered. This makes it difficult for them to see the enemy, the attack is hard to hit, and it is even harder to avoid the enemy's attack.
So in this night, human losses are extremely heavy. By the time the daylight was dawning, the loss of human soldiers also caused the commanders to be shocked.
Of course, during this night, humans also succeeded in fighting several counterattacks based on some arrangements originally located in the camp. They consumed a lot of orcs, but from the overall statistics, in this short night, the orcs The exchange rate with humans has exceeded one to five, that is to say, the average fall of every orc soldier will be accompanied by the fall of at least five human soldiers.
Not only that, the orc seriously injured soldiers can save their lives under the magical treatment, and even recover as soon as possible. The human side can't do it. They can only rely on pre-prepared therapeutic potions and other things to rescue them. The effect of the potion is very limited, which makes it almost impossible for their seriously wounded to be saved. If you consider this factor, the ratio of war damage between the two sides is only one or ten!
