The Fortress of Thunder Mountain was built two hundred years ago. In order to permanently resist the orcs going south, the first sacred alliance empire, Fernando I, used huge human and material resources in the naturally formed Hengduan Mountain fracture canyon, which is the only connection to the South Taran prairie. A sturdy fortress was built along the northern prairie passage. After the fortress was cast, Fernando I stood on the wall of the fortress and looked north, expressing emotion that "I am afraid that only Thor's anger can break through here." The Thor's fortress also got its name.

In order to effectively resist the attack of the northern orcs, the Thor Fortress is actually divided into three parts. The northernmost part is a sturdy city wall that blocks the passage of the Taryn Prairie between the north and the south. It is five kilometers long in the canyon. It is built on both sides of the canyon. It is about two kilometers long and seven kilometers long. It is the first way for humans to resist orcs. The line of defense claims that only Thor ’s anger can destroy this place. This is also the true Thor fortress.

This sturdy wall is quite thick, and the defense is quite tight. At all times, this place is on alert, forbidding any non-Raytheon Garrison troops to enter and leave. There is a gate in the middle of the city wall. If it is fully opened, ten knights can be let in and out. This is the only way to enter and exit the Thor Fortress from the Taryn Prairie in the north. In the battle fifty years ago, the orcs pressed across the board, which posed a great threat to the walls of Thor ’s fortress. However, the then garrison commander boldly led 10,000 knights into the orc position from here, disrupting the orc attack The rhythm finally crushed that orc attack.

For safety's sake, the inside of this gate is blocked. The giant gate up to three meters thick, the iron gate weighing more than ten thousand pounds, and various deadly organs on both sides of the wall passage will let the attackers Deterred: Rather than entering the Fortress of Thunder from there, it is safer to cross over the city wall directly, and the loss will be smaller.

The walls of Thor ’s Fortress are completely a small street where eight carriages can easily travel side by side. If the enemy begins to attack, the commander of the city wall can easily flexibly deploy his own forces against the enemy's strength. The outward-facing side of the city wall has a one-person tall wall, which can effectively defend against the enemy's long-range bow and arrow.

Every one hundred meters or so, there will be a section protruding from the outside of the wall. This is the tower. With the facilities like the tower, the soldiers stationed inside can interact with the soldiers stationed on the city wall to eliminate the dead ends under the city and attack the enemy from three sides from top to bottom. The towers usually have quite elite shooter troops stationed, and their range can cover the two towers around them, maximizing long-range fire support.

About one kilometer south of this section of the city wall, the exit of the Grand Canyon in the south, is the military camp of the Thor Garrison Garrison. The entire military camp stretches for more than ten kilometers, and can usually station more than one hundred thousand troops. Between the camp and the northern city wall is a smooth and flat avenue. Once an enemy attacks, the garrison here can rush to the front line as quickly as possible. Usually, the garrison here would call this barracks: "camp No. 1."

"Camp No. 1" not only has soldiers stationed here, but also twelve giant stone dumpers. The range of these stone-throwing vehicles is about three to five kilometers away. At the moment of the crisis ahead, tens of thousands of boulders can be thrown here. As long as the time is right, such boulders from the sky can destroy the enemy's attack and crush their will.

About five kilometers further south, that is, on the Southern Taryn prairie, there is another barracks, and this is where Ryan rested. In fact, strictly speaking, it can no longer be called a barracks. It contains almost all the facilities a city should have: bars, churches, magic guilds, mercenary guilds, various shops ... merchants from other parts of the mainland will dump here Their merchandise, and the defenders of Thor's Fortress will take turns to take vacations and come here to relax.

Because the garrison in Thor ’s Fortress is one of the elite troops in the empire, many soldiers here are basically impossible to return to their hometown to visit relatives before retiring. Or set up a tent. While on vacation, they can do whatever they want, and many soldiers here marry the daughters of the Klein herdsmen to prosper. So after two hundred years, a very lively city has formed here, but the predecessor here is after all a military camp, and most of the people living in it are related to the garrison, so the name here is still habitually called "No. 2 military camp".

With Bart, a qualified guide, they soon became familiar with it. The soldiers here mainly come to the north of the mainland, the area actually controlled by the Fernando royal family, but the vast majority of businessmen who come here to do business come to the south of the mainland, of which the most are free paradise merchants. But now that he has entered a state of vigilance, the "army barracks" seem quite deserted. Basically, no soldiers are seen wandering around. Even if he occasionally sees one, he hastily walked by. .Mobile phone watch

Although the orcs are coming this year, the residents and businessmen here did not care at all, because the orcs have not crossed the Thor fortress for two hundred years. This year, probably not? Besides, the more this state of war is, the better the business of those merchants is. The whole reason is that the soldiers of the Fortress of Thunder face life and death every day. Maybe they do n’t enjoy it today, and there is no chance to survive tomorrow. As long as the orc ’s initial violent attack has been overcome and the transition to the stalemate phase, the Garrison Garrison ’s garrison will have a planned rotation and be repaired, which is also when it becomes lively.

All the materials brought by Lille and York were brought into a warehouse three kilometers away from the barracks. There were a thousand soldiers guarding it, which should be foolproof. Those sets of heavy lifting equipment have been assembled and transported to Camp No. 1 to stand by, and Lille and York have also been divided into four groups, standing by the equipment in turn, ready to repair various problems that arise.

Seeing that it was shrouded in the clouds of war, Ryan had done his job. He received news from the Thor Fortress and sent a messenger. It has been almost three months since he arrived here. I do n’t know how the war is going. We are losing. Is it big. Ryan couldn't help asking this question.

Bart's reply surprised Ryan and others fiercely. They thought that the war should have entered an intertwined state of life and death, but they never thought that until today, the garrison of the Thor ’s Fortress had been sternly waiting, but the orc ’s huge army still did not It appeared that their vanguard had stayed about fifty kilometers away from the Thor Fortress. The Thor Fortress sent a large number of scouts, but could not pass the orc blockade. After a few months, the scout of the Thor Fortress suffered heavy losses. Now I have to shrink back.

Lane couldn't help thinking: "What exactly does the orc mean, is it bluff?"

"What exactly does the orc mean, is it bluff?" General Keenst, the chief military officer of Thor's Fortress, sat alone in the combat command room, looking at the map around Thor's Fortress and thinking again and again. It has been almost three months since it was discovered that the orcs have gathered a large number of troops. Originally, according to the orcs ’past situation, they will soon come to the Thor fortress to launch the most fierce attack, but now, the orcs are mobilizing without any hassle. Not at all as sturdy as their ancestors.

For this matter, General Keenster was already worried about his gray hair. General Keynst, who was born in the Royal Knights, was sent to the northern defense of the empire ten years ago, the Thor Fortress. Three years later, he took over the position of the retired former general and became the highest military chief here. In recent years, the orcs have occasionally attacked the Thor fortress, but their strength is very weak, less than 50,000 at most, and the combat effectiveness is not very strong. General Keenster easily led the Garrison fortress to defeat them. If it were n’t for the orcs to drop more than 10,000 corpses, General Keynst even thought that they were just completing a tradition left by their ancestors, just as the aristocrats of the imperial capital had the habit of taking a boat to go south for vacation in the cold winter.

Now that General Keenster has gone through the past two hundred years, the description of the orcs ’attacks by the top military chiefs of the Thor ’s Fortress has found no attempt at the orcs, so General Keenst is in a dilemma: continue to maintain vigilance The state will make the garrison quickly consume morale, fall into a mental fatigue, and affect the combat effectiveness; but once this alert state is lifted, in case the orc main force rushes out at night, it can attack the Thor fortress in only two days. At that time, the human army had just released the alert state, and the soldiers relaxed, maybe they would be successfully attacked by the enemy.

After thinking about it, General Keenst felt that the best way is to break through the orc ’s blockade and find the main position of the orc. As long as he understands the orc ’s intentions, it is not difficult to deal with it. From the day the Thor Fortress was built, it has undoubtedly expressed human intentions, that is, only defense, not attack. After all, the orcs were defeated, and it was no longer possible to retreat northward, but once the humans lost the Thor fortress, it meant that the orcs could drive straight through the thousands of kilometers of the prairie in the south, directly attacking the imperial capital of the Holy Alliance-Fernando City.

In a situation where he could only passively defend, General Keenst had no choice but to rub his vaguely painful head, and continued to think about the countermeasures: in this situation where the enemy situation is unknown, and the scouts have suffered heavy losses due to the enemy ’s tight seal, how Looking for a breakthrough?

"It's still necessary to continue the investigation. The enemy's situation is unknown for a day, and our army has no way to recuperate. This delay will be detrimental to our army." General Keenster said a few words to himself, and then he picked up the quill pen. Three lines of writing were written on the notebook in front of him: "intelligence, orc chief, mercenary."

"Maybe, I can use the power of these mercenaries."
