Lord Harland.

The two armies collided fiercely, and blood and flesh flew everywhere in an instant.

At this moment, Soros and Sophia's troops in the swamp basin also detected the enemy's situation. The soldiers stopped cleaning the battlefield and began to gather.

Soros and Sophia were only a few kilometers away from the battlefield, and the monster cavalry was the fastest, arriving at the battlefield in less than an hour.

Seeing the appearance of the Warcraft Cavalry Brigade, Plett had to mobilize his troops. The Orc Brigade at the rear turned around to protect the flanks of the military formation and prevent the Warcraft Cavalry from causing trouble.

Richard led the soldiers of Harland's territory to fight with the orc army.

He observed the formation, invested sixteen points of mental power, and released a powerful wall of fire technique.Putting in points of mental power, Li Cha released the powerful wall of fire spell, which is more powerful than the standard nine-ring magic.

A wall of fire suddenly appeared in the orc array, and the howling wind carried flames and ignited everything it could touch.

Violent flames raged through the orc army.

Burns are the most severe pain, and the pain is beyond a thousand cuts. Although the orc has thick skin and thick flesh, he was ignited by the fire and turned into a burning man. Immediately there was a shrill scream, and the injured orc lay on the ground, rolling over and over, hoping to extinguish the flames.

In an instant, the ranks of the orc soldiers were in serious confusion.

A powerful four-ring magic wall of fire immediately disrupted the formation of a squadron of orcs. The soldiers of the first squadron rushed bravely, and the orc squadron collapsed immediately.

The First Squadron fought very bravely and broke into the depths of the orc array. The grenadiers were in the back row and immediately threw alchemy bombs at the orcs.

Dozens of alchemy bombs were thrown out, and the orc rear squadron suffered heavy casualties.

The soldiers of the first squadron activated their fighting spirit, activated their brute force armor and activated their brute force technique. The strength of dozens of soldiers suddenly increased by four points.

The soldiers, whose strength had increased dramatically, swung the enchanted long sword like chopping melons and vegetables, and pierced through the second squadron of orcs.Then they smashed through the orc army in one go.

In less than ten minutes, the first squadron defeated three orc squadrons and penetrated the orc army formation.

Pratt's Chinese army only deployed two brigades. Seeing that the two brigades could not withstand the elite of Harland's territory, Platt hurriedly mobilized troops and continued to deploy a brigade of orcs to strengthen the defense line.

Although there are seven or eight thousand orc auxiliary soldiers, these auxiliary soldiers are all sheep-body troops, and their combat effectiveness is extremely weak, so they are not suitable for cruel field battles.

As long as the sheep-body people suffered a little more serious casualties, they would start to scatter in all directions.A little away from the supervision of the main force, he fled to the mountains and forests.The only effect of using sheep-body people to fight is to consume the energy, arrows, and stone bullets of the defenders.

If it is a long-term siege, using auxiliary troops to attack the city can also have some effect and consume the enemy's strength.

But Pratt's troops are now fighting in the field, and using sheep-body men can only make his army more chaotic. The only thing he can rely on now is the main force of seven orcs.

Through the harpy's reconnaissance, Plett knew in his heart that there were human reinforcements on both sides. When reinforcements from the east and west arrive tomorrow, it will become a decisive battle for the main force.

The orcs lost three brigades and used seven brigades to fight the main force of Harland Territory and the coalition of nobles from Black River County. Pratt had no chance of winning at all.

The soldiers in the Harland Territory are well-equipped and of excellent quality. In addition, they are equipped with a large number of alchemy bombs, and their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the Northern Army.

The combat effectiveness of the 7,000 Harland Territory soldiers exceeded half of the Northern Army.

Platt divided his troops to attack the swamp basin, and the enemy's situation was not investigated clearly. From a military point of view, it was an adventure.

After the military adventure failed, Raquel, the deputy head of the army, was captured alive by Harland's territory.In order to save his political future, he led the army to launch another battle when the conditions were not ripe.

This battle also violated the taboo of military strategists, rashly launching a decisive battle with the main force when the conditions were not mature.

Enemy reinforcements have arrived on the northern front. Although this enemy group is small in number, with only two guard squadrons and one auxiliary squadron, close to a thousand, the enemy is equipped with alchemy bombs, which should not be underestimated.

As a last resort, Platt could only continue to deploy a brigade of soldiers to defend the north.

The battle has continued until now, and the orcs only have a large reserve team left. In order to defeat the enemy in the north, Platt personally went to the front line.

"Boom!"

Alchemy bombs exploded continuously, with streaks of fiery red light like blooming flowers. The gravel on the ground was splashed more than ten meters by the air waves, sweeping down a large area of ​​nearby orcs. Under the leadership of grassroots officers and key veterans, the soldiers of the Harland territory immediately swarmed forward and killed all the injured orcs.

Platt personally led troops to fight several times, broke through the line of defense, and would immediately be attacked by the mage group.

With the blessing of the lightning staff, the power of the chain lightning was quite extraordinary. A chain of lightning struck down, and more than a dozen Pratt soldiers were blown away. Their limbs mixed with gravel were sprinkled from the sky.

These orc army commanders' personal soldiers are all low-level professionals and reserve officers. In an instant, there were heavy casualties, which made Pratt's heart bleed.

The battle lasted all afternoon, and the orcs on the northern front lost soldiers. Wendy and Sophia released a series of lightning bolts seven times. Seeing that the orc soldiers couldn't move anymore, Platt chose to call a truce.

At the same time, Thoros and Richard led their troops to end the battle with the orcs.

In this battle, the orcs suffered a small loss on two battlefields, and lost two thousand soldiers in total.

The soldiers on the northern front commanded by Sophia only suffered 200 casualties, and the main force of Harland Territory commanded by Richard only suffered 400 casualties. Thoros led the Warcraft Cavalry, which was only a diversionary operation in the morning, with only casualties. There were more than a dozen soldiers.

On the second day, although the soldiers from Blossom City and Graveson were farther away, they rushed to reinforce them first.

The fifth and sixth brigades were almost in full force, and they also brought two squadrons of auxiliary troops. The number of reinforcements exceeded nearly 3,000.

The arrival of these three thousand fresh troops on the battlefield was like the last weight on the balance, immediately changing the situation on the battlefield, and the situation of the orcs immediately became worse.

The fifth and sixth brigades were unified under the command of Roland. After Roland led his troops to reinforce, he immediately built a camp one kilometer away from the orc camp, blocking it to the east of the orc camp.

Richard took the main force of Harland's territory and built the camp south of the orc camp. Thoros also led the Warcraft Cavalry Brigade and built a temporary camp in the north of the orc camp. With the addition of Sophia's troops, the orc camp was immediately surrounded by soldiers from the Harland territory.

No matter which direction we break through, we must face a battle.

The strategic situation has developed to the present situation, and the orcs have become very dangerous.

Tomorrow, reinforcements will arrive from the coalition of nobles in Heihe County, and the human advantage will become even greater.

By then the encirclement will be stronger, and the 59th Army Corps under Pratt may be surrounded and annihilated.

Although the two decisions failed, Platt was still a decisive commander. After two battles, Platt knew in his heart that the Orc Front had underestimated the strength of Harland's territory.

Although the territory of Harland has only regular troops, there are auxiliary soldiers. The military strength of this territory is not weaker than that of a developed earldom.

An orc legion whose strength is not much different from the military strength of the Harland Territory.Relying on the Platt Army, after the enemy has a geographical advantage, it is difficult to break through the defense line of Harland's territory.

In this battle, the Orc Front placed a burden that was beyond its carrying capacity on the Plat Army, making it difficult for the Plat Army to bear it.

After analyzing the situation, that night, Platt immediately issued an order to break out of the siege, and the direction of the breakout was also chosen to be east.

As soon as the orc army moved, it was immediately spotted by scouts from the territory of Harland.

Li Cha immediately ordered the whole army to launch attacks from all directions, put pressure on the orc breakout troops, and want to encircle and wipe out the orcs.

Breakout requires strong organizational skills, and organizational skills are precisely the weakness of the orc army. After all, many races are gathered in one legion, the language is difficult to communicate, and the organizational skills are not improved at all.

Without good organizational skills, there are many problems in the process of breaking through.

In particular, the more than 8,000 goat-like auxiliary troops almost collapsed halfway.

The rout even disrupted the orcs' positions. Some of the lagging orc troops were overtaken by the pursuers and could not resist for too long in the darkness.

Platt gathered all the elite soldiers, more than snake-body professionals, together with Platt's guards, formed a powerful attack arrow.

Although Roland and Jennings had camps, dug trenches, laid out antlers, and had a simple defense line, they still could not stop them.

The two infantry squadrons blocking the front were defeated, and a large group of orcs broke out of the encirclement.

Because it was dark night, Roland and Jennings didn't know how many thousand orcs had broken through?

The clamor of fighting resounded across the battlefield, and there were lit bonfires everywhere. The orcs did not dare to walk the road leading to the military depot, and chose to drill into the hills around the swamp basin.

Li Cha led the soldiers to chase after midnight in the dark, and found that the fighting sounds gradually stopped.Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, he ordered the battlefield to be cleaned, and the battlefield was cleaned up early the next morning.

The fifth and sixth squadrons suffered heavy casualties in this battle. The two squadrons were almost completely wiped out by the orcs. In total, only a dozen wounded soldiers survived. Adding the casualties of other troops, the number of soldiers killed in the battle exceeded 400, and 300 were lightly or seriously injured. Many people.

On the frontal battlefield, the two squadrons that blocked the orcs fought very bravely, and they did not collapse almost until the end.

Richard personally looked at the battle line and found that the two squadrons had more than thirty snakemen killed or injured in the front defense, and more than a dozen orc professional officers were also killed. Ordinary orc soldiers left more than a hundred corpses.

Richard knew in his heart that the first reason why these two squadrons were so capable of fighting was because of the racial war.

The soldiers and civilians in the northern border have blood feuds with the orcs. As long as they are organized well, they can often fight to the death.Even a lot of underdogs can do that sometimes.Many city defense troops guarding the castle can do this.

The second reason is that Harland Territory's death compensation policy has been implemented for more than ten years, reducing the worries of soldiers and making soldiers willing to sacrifice their lives to fight desperately for the Territory.

The third reason is that the grassroots officers were able to fight the orcs to the end under the leadership of their organizations, until the orcs broke through the line.

The fourth is that the army in the territory of Harland is very disciplined. Not only will you be killed if you flee in battle, but your family will also be reduced to slaves, and you will never be pardoned for the rest of your life.Under the command of the officer, the soldiers can basically fulfill their responsibilities and will not easily collapse.

Seeing such a tragic scene, even though Richard had led troops for many years and had a hard-hearted heart, he still felt a little sad and a little sad. With red eyes, he said to the staff officer beside him: "After last night's battle, the two brigades of Roland and Jennings suffered heavy casualties. Although they did not block the opening and let the orcs escape, they still won last night. The key, the top priority should be given to them. After the war, excellent soldiers will be mobilized to replenish the 23rd and 27th Squadrons as soon as possible.

This year I killed a lot of snakes and after making them into enchanted armor, I gave priority to replenishing the 23rd and 27th Squadrons. "

Except for the heavy casualties of the troops blocking the orcs, the casualties of the other troops were less, adding up to about people.

In the pursuit and annihilation battle last night, the casualties in Harland's territory were about .

Counting the previous battles, nearly 700 soldiers in Haaland Territory have been killed and more than 1,400 were lightly or seriously injured. The total casualties have exceeded 2,000.

Although the casualties were not small, the results were brilliant.

There were more than 4,000 orc prisoners captured last night, more than 3,400 satyrs, and about 800 other orc prisoners.

Orc professionals are sent to Nolan for bloodline experiments in exchange for more meritorious deeds.

Ordinary satyrs can herd, and their life-sustaining needs are relatively low, so they can easily integrate into Harland's territory. Harland discovered copper ore last year, and the orcs not needed by the Grant Mage Association can be mined, saving human resources.

More than 4,000 prisoners were captured and more than 5,000 orc heads were beheaded.

The orc army that followed Platt to break out of the siege was only about .The remaining four or five thousand orcs should have scattered and fled into the surrounding forests.It is estimated that less than half of them can be contained.

By the time the coalition forces of the nobles of Heihe County arrived, the battle was over.

The battlefield has also been cleaned up, and the seized weapons are piled up like a mountain.

Dozens of orc heads were loaded into carts, and the captives lined up in a long queue.

Even though they could no longer smell the smoke of the battlefield, Baron Sharp and other nobles could still feel the intensity of the battle.

In just a few years, Harland's territory has become so powerful. This situation makes Sharp, Rice and others feel unbelievable.

Twelve years ago, Richard was still a junior officer under Sharp's command. His status was far from being comparable to that of Sharp. Only his father, William, could be on par with Sharp.

Nine years ago, Richard joined forces with Baron Rice to fight the orcs. At that time, there was not much difference in the strength of the two territories.

In just ten years, the province of Geda has undergone tremendous changes. Richard actually developed a powerful territory. The soldiers of the Harland family actually defeated a legion of orcs?

Seeing this scene, many nobles were silent.

This is the fear of power. They know in their hearts that after this battle, a new great noble will be added to the Grant Kingdom, and a new power will emerge in the northern region.
