Volume 3: Tides of Darkness Chapter 205: TR Tactics
kill!
Facing the attack , Varian was not afraid. He also waved his sword and led his troops to charge.
The Storm Knights raised their spears one after another, lined up in neat rows, and charged forward like a forest of spears.
As the saying goes, all are equal under the lance. Human knights are not afraid of this kind of head-on confrontation. The tight formation is not something that the loose wolf cavalry can resist. The rows of lances are not something that the swords can resist.
Puff, puff, row after row of stabbings, in one encounter, almost a thousand wolf cavalry were stabbed down, while the human knights only lost two or three hundred people .
But Hellscream didn't care. He had already seen the fighting methods of human knights. Although this lance charge was powerful, the strongest was only the frontal wave. As long as it got into a melee, the lance would lose its power.
"Surround them, surround them, entangle them, and engage in a melee with them."
Hellscream roared and chopped a Storm Knight off his horse with one axe. The Wolf Riders rushed madly into the Storm Riders' formation. The Storm Riders replaced their lances and fought with the Wolf Riders with their cavalry swords. The human cavalry was immediately at a disadvantage. The Wolf Riders' huge magic iron blades could easily cut through the solid armor.
However, human cavalry swords had no advantage in length. After a melee, humans lost nearly a thousand troops in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Varian chose to retreat without hesitation.
"Get out, get out of here! Kill, kill, kill, kill!"
The knights gathered together, fought their way out of the scattered encirclement of the Wolf Cavalry, and fled desperately towards Dagger Ridge in the west. The Wolf Cavalry army chased them from behind, throwing out nets from time to time to catch lone knights off their horses, and then surrounded and hacked them to death.
"Come back here, you bunch of cowardly humans, fight me!" Hellscream was not at all happy about the human cavalry's escape. He had not killed enough, so he led the wolf cavalry to chase them closely.
In the blink of an eye, the human cavalry had rushed into the valley ahead.
Just as Grom was about to lead his troops in to chase after the enemy, a black wolf stopped him.
Gasser Zog (Blackrock Warlord): "Grom, we can't chase them anymore. Our mission is to burn the human farmland, not to fight a decisive battle with the enemy. We are not familiar with the terrain here. What if the enemy has an ambush?"
In fact, Gasser didn't think there would be any ambush at all. Orcs valued pure violence, and they always fought straightforwardly, with the strong winning and the weak losing. They rarely cared about any strategies, and they would just rush in headlong. At most, they would launch a sneak attack in the middle of the night.
However, ever since Orgrim became the great chief, he has given these chiefs and warlords some rigorous training. Orgrim, nicknamed the "stabber in the back", is naturally wary of such things.
The Blackrock Orcs, in particular, were constantly instilled with information in this regard by Orgrim. Judging from their tactical acumen alone, the Blackrock Orcs were somewhat stronger than other clans.
However, Gasser didn't think that such a thing would really happen. He just wanted to persuade Hellscream, so he had to find a reason.
Grom was a little unhappy. There was no such thing as ambush in his dictionary, but he still felt that he should obey Orgrim's orders.
At this time, Badao Wuqing rushed over riding a wild boar, and immediately became angry when he heard the conversation between the two.
Ba Dao Wu Qing (Ba Dao Chief): "What nonsense are you talking about? The enemy has been defeated. If we don't take this opportunity to kill them all, what if they gather together and cause trouble for us? If you are afraid, just say so.
Boss Hellscream, you are not afraid too, are you? If you are afraid, then let me go and kill those humans. My people are all true warriors and will never be scared by humans and dare not move forward. "
As soon as these words came out, Hellscream's eyes turned red, and the little bit of rationality in his mind was instantly burned away by anger.
Grom Hellscream (Warsong Chieftain): "Shut up, you pig-riding kid. The powerful Hellscream is fearless. Well, let me show you what true strength is. I will personally lead my men to crush those cowardly humans. As for you - stay here!
I'll settle the score with you when I come back."
Gasser was speechless for a moment. He glared at Tyrant Blade and continued to persuade him: "Hellscream, what if there is an ambush..."
"Humph, so what if there is an ambush? In the face of my powerful strength, all tricks are useless - attack with all your forces."
After saying this, Hellscream led the wolf cavalry army and charged into the valley in a mighty manner.
Gasser glared at Badao Wuqing and led the dark wolf cavalry to chase after them.
More than 20,000 wolf cavalrymen poured into the valley, chasing and killing the enemies all the way. Seeing the enemies in front getting closer and closer, suddenly, the fleeing human knights dispersed to both sides, revealing a neatly formed phalanx of human spearmen.
As the knights escaped from the valley, the spear infantry formation quickly expanded, blocking the exit of the valley tightly. The dense spears were like a jungle of blades.
Hellscream was stunned for a moment. There really was an ambush. But his astonishment was immediately replaced by anger. "So what if there is an ambush? Kill them!"
At a command, the wolf cavalry rushed frantically towards the human spear formation in front.
Meanwhile - at the entrance to the valley:
Just as Badao Wuqing and his boar riders were waiting on the spot, an infantry of 10,000 suddenly approached from a distance.
When Badao Wuqing saw this, he hurriedly ordered his boar riders to evacuate the entrance of the valley and form a formation in the distance.
The two armies faced each other, but there was no intention of fighting.
Badao Wuqing rode a wild boar to the front of the two armies, and Murphy also came out with Dara Bangba, Sigelette, Da Vinci and others.
Ba Dao Wu Qing looked at the army in front of him and thought, is that all? It would be very risky to try to stop the Hellscream Wolf Cavalry Army with such a small force.
"Hey, I have nothing to do with this. The rest are all your problems. If you can't handle it, it has nothing to do with me. But I can't lose the 100,000 gold coins."
"Don't worry, the money has been brought, let's do it according to the agreement."
As Da Vinci spoke, he stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation, and Murphy walked forward and traded 100,000 gold coins to Badao Wuqing.
After all, Varian was still a little worried about Da Vinci, so he put the 100,000 gold coins in Murphy's hands.
"Haha, Tianluo Studio is really efficient." Badao Wuqing took the gold coins and gave an order, and five thousand Hell Boar Knights left immediately.
Watching the boar riders leave, Murphy did not relax. Once Hellscream led his troops to retreat, they would be the first to bear the brunt.
It is by no means an easy task to stop such an enemy force.
He touched the ring on his finger and squeezed the Storm Binder behind him.
These alone are not enough to fight against an army of more than 20,000.
"Da Vinci, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, our Tianluo Studio is professional."
After saying this, Da Vinci immediately led his men into action.
He gathered the 3,000 farmers and stonemasons in the army and said, "Men, we must prepare the defense line before the enemy reacts. Let's get to work."
After saying that, he directly activated the hero skill - rapid construction.
The name of this skill is unremarkable, but the effect is quite amazing.
【Quick Construction (Professional Skill/Hero Skill)
Activate: Increases the construction speed of you and your units by 300%, but consumes 30% more materials during construction.
Not only that, Da Vinci also brought a number of mages and priests, who cast spells of "acceleration" and "brute force" on these construction workers.
Three thousand construction workers immediately turned into infrastructure maniacs and started hammering frantically at the entrance to the valley.
Murphy saw a castle rising from the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye. There were two more walls and more than a dozen arrow towers on both sides of the castle.
In less than ten minutes, a solid line of defense had completely blocked the entrance to the valley.
