Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 504: Method

"kill!"

​​

After a fire burned all kinds of equipment in the orc camp, Talis and Ser Murak took the champion knight and the unicorn holy beast to break through with all their strength.

​​

At this time, the army of orcs hadn't had time to encircle, and most of the army of more than 100,000 people were still confused. Because Sean died too suddenly, and it was still at night, the orcs of each legion only knew that the camp was raided by humans, and most of them did not realize the seriousness of the matter before Taris and others set it on fire.

​​

Knowing that the raging fire ignited from the engineering camp, and the flames illuminated half of the night sky, the commanders of the orc legions realized that something was wrong.

​​

At this moment, Sean died again, and the same schedule cannot be carried out. The actions of each legion depend on the reaction speed of their respective legion commanders. The quicker one has brought some elites to the center of the fire, while the slower one has not yet started. action.

​​

It is not a big mistake to be cautious at night, but this cautiousness has left a great breakthrough for the cavalry of Taris. Originally, the orcs still have the opportunity to use the numerical advantage of the army to keep the cavalry of Taris, at least to a certain extent. casualties, but the actions of the army in the orc camp were somewhat disjointed at this time. Talis led the cavalry to find the loopholes of the orc army keenly, and barely collided with the orc army of the brigade. After solving a few small troops blocking the road, they rushed out of the orc camp. Only a messy orc camp was left, and a group of orc officers who hadn't reacted to what was going on.

​​

……

​​

morning light

​​

The sun slowly illuminated the entire orc camp, and the orc army that had been chaotic in the middle of the night had basically returned to order at this time. Each legion was ordered by the officers to count the number of people and count the casualties and missing people.

​​

Last night, the direct casualties caused by Taris and the others to the orcs were not too many, and the injured were only a few thousand casualties. Although this number does not seem small, considering the strength of this cavalry team The lowest level is also the existence of earth steps, so this number of casualties is not difficult to accept.

​​

The downsizing of thousands of people, to the army of more than 100,000 orcs, is painful, but it will not hurt the bones, and it will not play a decisive role in the direction of this war. What was unpleasant was the burning of a large number of siege equipment and the death of Sean.

​​

"Lord Legionnaire, Sir Sean has been found!"

​​

"Where is it, show me there!"

​​

Although many soldiers saw the scene of Sean's death in the battle at night, several orc commanders still held the attitude that they wanted to see the dead but the corpse, and ordered the soldiers to find the body of Sean. It may not be easy to find the corpse of an ordinary soldier among the messy corpses, but it is still very easy to find a commander-level general like Sean. Soon after dawn, the orc soldiers found Sean in the pile of corpses. The corpse of the head, and Sean's head was soon found nearby.

​​

"Lord Sean!"

​​

The orc army commander, led by the soldiers, saw Sean's body that had just been restrained, and couldn't help jumping up and crying.

​​

As a samurai protecting the country and in charge of the Imperial Guard of the capital for many years, Xi En has a high prestige among these orc officers. Seeing Xi En's body at this time reveals some true feelings.

​​

"Commander of the Sini army, please restrain Sir Sean now, we have more important things to deal with."

​​

At first, when the surrounding orc warriors saw the commander of the Sini army crying, they could only watch it dryly, and even wept together after being affected.

​​

It wasn't until another orc legionnaire came over that Sini's meaningless crying was stopped.

​​

"Um."

​​

Sidney bent over, wiped the blood on Sean's face a little, and then stood up. Just now, he was just a little out of control because of the series of defeats in the army.

​​

As a senior general, after being reminded by his colleagues, he quickly adjusted his mentality, but he did not take any words from another legion commander for the time being.

​​

"Lord Ruth, wait a moment."

​​

"Where is the captain of Sir Sean's personal guard?"

​​

"Also died last night."

​​

"What about the soldiers of the Guards?"

​​

"Most of them also died in battle, and a few collapsed in the battle, and they haven't recovered yet."

​​

"Lord Sean is dead. What kind of face are these guards alive? Pass my order that all deserters of the guards will be executed."

​​

"Yes, Sir Sydney!"

​​

Sini gave an order, and hundreds of heads fell to the ground. It stands to reason that Sini was not qualified to execute the soldiers of the Guards, he could only govern his own legion.

​​

It's just that now that Sean is dead, Sean is the only remaining legion commander in the army, and the other legion commander, Russ, is only the peak strength of the great warrior, which is a whole big difference compared to Seaney. In terms of rank, Sini's right to speak in the army at this time is almost the most among several army commanders, and no one will go against his will on such "little things".

​​

After Sini arbitrarily decided the life and death of several hundred guards, the few remaining orc commanders also entered the tent to discuss their next actions.

​​

Originally, there were 11 people in the tent, but only 5 people were seated at this time, and only these 5 people were qualified to participate in the military conference at this level. A legion commander, the attack on Dragonscale Castle in the past two days and the night battle last night, two legion commanders were killed in the battle, and even the main general Sean died unexpectedly in the battle. The tent is now empty, which makes people feel a little choked up.

​​

And what made the remaining orc commanders even more confused was the current situation.

​​

"How much food and grass are there?"

​​

"Because of the isolation of Dragon Scale Castle, the food hoarded in the jungle cannot be delivered. No matter how much we save the food and grass in the army, it will only be enough for three days at most."

​​

The lack of food and grass is something that several legion commanders expected. If there is enough food and grass, they will not withdraw and want to break through the Dragon Scale Castle. They should be besieging Dragon Wing City at this moment. I prepared in my heart that even after three days, the army would be hungry, and the faces of several army commanders were still the same.

​​

"How many siege weapons do we have left?"

​​

"Almost all of them were burnt down last night. There is one well lantern that can be used, and a few rescued ladders."

​​

When it comes to the problem of the damage to the siege equipment, several orc army commanders in the big tent showed their bitter faces almost at the same time. Without the siege equipment, it was almost declared that they would not be able to take down the Dragonscale Castle, and they could not let the soldiers use it. Climb the city wall with your hands. The city wall of Dragon Scale Castle, which is nearly ten meters high, is not so easy for the warriors to climb up.

​​

Completely trapped in the enemy's territory, with no food or grass, no siege equipment, no possibility of breaking through the enemy's blockade, and the main general has just died. In most cases, I am afraid that this army will have to consider surrendering. .

​​

But several orc army commanders in the big tent, including all the orc warriors outside, would not consider surrendering. They could run away and become deserters, but it was absolutely impossible to surrender to humans.

​​

The two clans are feuding, and the result of surrender is almost certain. Human captives will never end well with the orcs, and if this army of orcs surrenders to Gru, Gru will definitely not keep them. Killing and surrendering is his only choice.

After ruling out the option of surrender, no matter how difficult the next battle is, we must find a way to continue.

​​

"Now that the wounded are excluded, we still have 130,000 soldiers, and we still have the strength to fight."

​​

"Unfortunately, humans will not give us a chance to fight."

​​

Now that the orc army is trapped in the Jedi, as long as Gru has no problem with his mind, he will not take the initiative to attack. When these orcs are hungry for another week and they can't even hold their weapons, they will lead the army to attack, right? Is it easy.

​​

"We have to find a way to break through."

​​

"Which direction? Can we take down the Dragon Scale Castle in front of us or can we take down the Dragon Wing City behind us?"

​​

"We can bypass the Dragonscale Castle and get back from the woods."

​​

"Bypass the Dragonscale Castle?"

​​

"The detour will take at least ten days. The army's food is only enough for three days, and other than the road of Dragon Scale Fort, other places are not suitable for the army to pass through. It is almost impossible to detour."

​​

"What if we give up part of the army?"

​​

When Sini said these words, the entire tent became quiet, and the four army commanders all stared at Sini at the same time. They didn't think about the detour plan.

​​

The main problem is that, detouring from the woods, firstly, it is difficult for the army to pass smoothly, and secondly, the remaining food and grass are not enough to support them to detour, so I directly rejected this plan.

​​

But at this time, Sini brought up this plan again, and also proposed a vicious and feasible plan.

​​

Sini was stared at by four people, and he didn't have any timidity. The so-called kindness did not control the army. Most of the senior generals who could occupy this position would only regard the army under him as a bargaining chip, not a living life. To give them up, just see if the chips in exchange are suitable.

​​

Now, it's time to let go of some people.

​​

"What does Sir Sydney want to do?"

​​

After a moment of silence, another orc army commander, Russ, broke the silence.

​​

"The food and grass in the generals are all gathered. You go back and choose some elites, bring no more than 30,000 people at the most, and leave separately. After the remaining people leave them a small amount of food and grass, let the Devi army commander lead them and fight with humans. ."

​​

The determination of Sydney's plan is not too big, it is equivalent to directly abandoning the army of 100,000 people and fleeing with a small number of elites. Letting them stay and fight with humans is just a scene. Except for Dragon Wing City and Dragon Scale Castle, there is not even a human being in the vicinity. If there is any siege equipment, they will try their best to find no one, saying that they will stay and wait for death. more appropriate.

​​

This is no longer called surviving by docking the tail, it is simply cutting off half of the body to survive, but this crazy plan was not opposed by any of the army commanders below, and they all kept silent.

​​

Silence is the acquiescence. As long as there is still a way, they are unwilling to accept this kind of plan, but at this time the army has reached the limit, and it is better to leave with some elites than to starve to death here.

​​

Seeing that no one objected, Sini did not delay much, and immediately said:

​​

"We're running out of time. We need to keep the food we take away. Now we're going back to the legion to pick people. We're going to set off tonight."

​​

"it is good…"

​​

The few army commanders who had remained silent at first, finally responded to Sini's order.

​​

"It's just the Devi Legion Commander's side..."

​​

There is also a key to this plan to survive by decapitation. There must be an officer with enough prestige to stabilize the situation, especially to maintain the stability of the camp for a period of time after they leave and leave, otherwise they will not be able to circumnavigate very well. It may directly cause a major crash.

​​

The five legion commanders present are all valuable strengths, and naturally it is impossible to stay in the abandoned army of 100,000. The most suitable person to take up this important task is the seriously injured Devi.

​​

Devi was originally a warrior of the orcs, equivalent to a master of the earth rank. He was also the most powerful among the ten orc army commanders, and his strength and prestige were even higher than that of Sini.

​​

However, he was seriously injured in the battle, and he is still being treated in the witch doctor's tent. He has almost lost all of his strength. Now he is barely able to move, and he may not even be able to beat an ordinary orc warrior.

​​

But at this moment, what Sini needs is not the strength of the other party, but the status and prestige of the other party...

​​

"I'll go find Lord Devi in ​​person, and you all prepare separately to ensure that you can leave on time at night."

​​

​​

A camp in the southwest corner of the orc camp.

​​

"This medicine is too bitter!"

​​

"I'm afraid of suffering when my life is almost over, drink it!"

​​

"Cough, cough! There are ants in your medicine!"

​​

"I like to drink or not!"

​​

​​

"what!"

​​

Almost all the wounded in the Orc army gathered here. Before they got close, they smelled a strong smell of medicine. Occasionally, there would be one or two terrifying screams. It should be the witch doctor treating the wounded.

​​

The wounded who can come here are already lucky. At least in the eyes of the witch doctor, they still have the value of treatment. More wounded on the battlefield died in despair without the chance to receive treatment at all.

​​

In addition to several large tents in the camp, there is also a separate tent, where Devi, the commander of the orc army, is receiving treatment~lightnovelpub.net~ With the strength of the earth steps, Devi is finally out of danger. After a period of recuperation under the care of a witch doctor, he was even able to walk a few steps.

​​

But at this time, the witch doctor was kicked out of the tent, and there were only two orcs left inside.

​​

"I didn't expect you, Sydney, to have such courage."

​​

Sitting in the tent, Devi couldn't help but sigh after listening to Sydney's plan. Although he was seriously injured, he still knew the current crisis very well. He was just in a hurry. Not a solution.

​​

"The plan still needs the help of Lord Devi."

​​

"You can go ahead and execute it, I will try my best to stabilize it here in the camp."

​​

"Thank you, Lord Devi!"

​​

Sini's gratitude is sincere. After all, Devi was asked to stay and sacrifice in order to give them a chance to survive.

​​

"Don't thank me, your plan finally makes me feel that it still has some effect."

​​

Sydney was no longer hypocritical, and turned to leave after nodding to Devi.

​​

Devi also picked up the battle axe in the tent after watching Sydney leave, and walked outside. The two personal soldiers who had been guarding not far away immediately rushed over.

​​

"Lord Legionnaire!"

​​

"Come on, put on my armor!"

​​
