Chapter 315: Attack and Defense of Castle of Black Blood

readx(); The movement of the orcs to climb over the city walls and mountains was blocked, and they could not reach Waterdeep City for a long time. The communication from the Kasper division was also interrupted by the barrier of the elf magic circle. The death knight did not know the battle situation ahead, so he could only constantly mobilize the army of the orcs to come.

Because the width of the passage is not large, too many troops cannot be invested at one time, so the orcs have the advantage of quantity but cannot exert it. Black Blood Castle, as its name suggests, has become a meat grinder for the city walls and mountains. All the blood of the orcs has been squeezed out and turned into black marks left on the ground.

As the number of orc deaths continues to increase, new problems arise for death knights. The power of the Wraith will be weakened after possessing and causing death. Although the black channel is now formed, the characteristics are still there. The blood on the passage melted the ice, and the souls of the orc warriors met the needs of the resentful spirits. The only passage that could pass through the city wall and mountains was gradually disappearing, and the chances of the orcs were getting less and less.

Even if they still have more than 100,000 troops gathered in the north of the city wall mountains.

Black Blood Castle also began to feel the pressure, mainly from the logistical side. With the consumption of arrows, spears and various long-range weapons, the defense becomes more and more difficult. Fortunately, Siegel never wanted to stand still, nor did he force the destruction of all the orc armies. Therefore, Mana issued an order to ask the soldiers on the city wall to increase their hit rate and not allow the volley of arrows.

The caravan from Heim finally arrived, bringing in weapons and ammunition purchased from castles along the way. Many lords also sent knights and archers, hoping to join the action against the orcs.

"Let them all go down the mountain and act with the cavalry of the Jackdaw tribe." Siegel arranged: "Pay attention to controlling the number of orcs passing through and maintain the current situation."

The female knight nodded. Because it occupies a great geographical advantage, the casualties of Heim Land are not large, but the results obtained are amazing. She asked Siegel inexplicably: "If the Black Blood Castle is defended like this every time, how can the orcs enter the city wall mountain range?"

"This is the first time the dwarves used their forbidden rune formation, and the orcs were caught off guard. Originally, the city wall and mountains were so vast, with many paths, canyons, and cave passages that we didn't know about, and that was the main choice for the orcs to enter the secret way. Siegel said: "Black Blood Castle just happened to guard a return passage that could carry loot. It was never a place to guard against orcs' attack routes. There is no sentry tower that can see the north. There is no storage of roadblocks and denials." Horses. Most of those hidden passages cannot transport trucks, so they can only go under the Black Blood Castle. Over time, the lord of the castle knows that the carts of loot will slow down the speed of the orcs. The orcs become living targets."

"Have you thought of this for a long time? Lord?" Mana looked at Siegel with admiration. "Did you expect the victory of Blackblood Castle?"

"No, I can't think of that specific," the wizard said honestly. "I figured out that the orcs might attack, but I didn't know where they would come from. So when we were in the Jackdaw tribe, I asked Kerry to help find it. His cavalry Scout the City Wall Mountains and found this passage, that's why I asked you to come here."

"In addition to the City Wall Mountains, the orcs originally had other ways to cross the City Wall Mountains, and that was by boat." Siegel continued: "Makabuda originally had a large number of ships, and there were shipyards that could continuously produce new ships. The warships, fortunately, were all burned during the last orc war, and have not formed a scale since then. As far as I know, the sea trade routes have been quiet in the past two years. The piracy of the orcs has dropped significantly, which is related to this. I estimate that it can be It would be good to transport 10,000 to 20,000 orc troops to Waterdeep by sea, and the elves can eat this amount."

"I don't know what's going on in Waterdeep City." Mana smiled: "I hope the masked lords can persevere."

Surprised, Siegel asks Mana why she wants the Masked Lord to win.

"We helped him defend the orcs in the north, lest the orcs sack their beautiful city, shouldn't we pay for it?" the female knight said: "Even if we dig out the inventory of the Black Blood Castle itself, this time we will use it in Heimland. A lot of supplies, especially plasma bolts, all of them are gold coins! Although defending orcs is a glorious and just cause, if there is no income, wouldn’t it be more and more poor?”

Seeing the sly look in the female knight's eyes, Siegel laughed: "Don't worry, I'm ready. What do you think Kerry is going to do? He went to liberate Waterdeep. Why didn't he get anything? And what's going on here? Wouldn't there be no part of Heimland? Besides, orcs aren't really paupers, and no army is paupers."

Could it be that the lord is going to march north of the City Wall Mountains? Mana had heard of those orc towns, and knew that robbery, slave trade and smuggling had accumulated a lot of wealth for the orcs, but the north was the orc territory, and the loss of the land would inevitably increase a lot of casualties. She wanted to dissuade. But she also thought that Siegel was never a dizzy person, and would not let his soldiers die in vain. How could he not have thought of these situations?

When the mercenaries finally led from Heim to Castle Black, Mana finally understood what Siegel was thinking.

The situation of the Black Blood Castle shocked these mercenaries, and the remaining corpse of the Black Dragon shocked them greatly. The dragon symbolizes wealth, courage, strength and great danger, and is the biggest dream of mercenaries and adventurers. "To be a dragon slayer" is the dream of everyone who has embarked on an adventure. But only a very few people have the opportunity to see the dead dragon, and even fewer have the taste of victory.

"All orc equipment is piled up on the mountain road. If you want it, take it all." Siegel said to them: "I need you to send archers to participate in the defense of the Black Blood Castle. Bring your own ammunition. This pays for hire and pays bonuses based on kills."

"Sir, do those soldiers also have this money?" a mercenary leader asked: "I'm only worried about cooperation, so don't cause any conflicts."

Very smart, Siegel looked at him with a smile: "Don't worry. The only thing you need to care about is whether your wallet ends up bulging."

The leaders smiled in agreement, not believing it.

The battle was stalemate for a few days, and the orcs gradually found the trick, and the chance of passing the Black Blood Castle increased greatly. At this moment, Mana gave another order and suddenly increased the intensity of the attack.

The arrows fell like rain, and the orc shrank back when he saw that the situation was not good.

"This gives the people under the mountain time to deal with the orcs who passed by before." The female knight explained when she reported.

She looked at the lord, watching him stand on the tower, observing the surroundings with the telescope. Although Siegel didn't take part in the battle of defending the city's archery, Marna knew that he was one of the most tired. Siegel thinks about the possible actions of the enemy every day, and casts magic around the Black Blood Castle to take precautions. Mana couldn't understand those spells, but she knew that after the Warg Knight, the enemy had never succeeded in a sneak attack.

Although every day when I see soldiers, Lord Lord is happy, always with a triumphant smile. But Mana knew that sadness often crept up his brows when no one else was there. Many times, Siegel would look south for long periods of time, staring at the end of the horizon. There is the direction of Waterdeep.

One day, the orcs suddenly increased the intensity of their attack, and madly—the scene at that time could only be described by the word madness—rushing down the mountain. They didn't seem to care about casualties at all, and there was nothing but an endless frenzy in their eyes.

Arrows, stones, fire, death could not stop them, and all the orcs seemed to be berserk. They gushed down the hillside like a torrent, never stopping even in the event of a stampede.

The archer in the castle doesn't need to aim at all, just shoot down as soon as possible. The berserk in the rage seems to be not afraid of pain, and it seems that he doesn't feel as if he was hit by an arrow or two.

The death knight stood tall, looking down at the Black Blood Castle without saying a word. Siegel stared at it quietly from the tower, his black eyes meeting the reddish soul fire. Bai Long's body recovered, and under the stimulation of the **** aura, he always wanted to participate in the battle, so he couldn't stop twisting. The death knight patted the mount to silence him.

Siegel had been waiting for his opponent to make a move, wondering what else would come. More dragons? giant? Wraith? He was ready to meet the challenge, but after waiting for a long time, the orcs were still charging, and nothing changed.

The soul fire in the death knight's eyes trembled, and there were words in his mouth. The news from the Knox Common Society was affected by the Elf Array, and it could no longer be spread by relying on magic spells. In the vast grasslands, there were cavalry from the Jackdaw tribe attacking everywhere, so the death knight completely lost contact with Waterdeep.

The support operation had actually failed, the death knight knew very well. Relying on the sound of the horn to communicate, he knew that the orcs gathered at the foot of the mountain were also attacked, with heavy casualties, leaving only a few hundred people to rely on a mountain to resist. They don't have enough manpower, let alone enough weapons and ammunition, how can they fight against the cavalry?

This time, he used the spell to stimulate the orcs to charge, and five or six thousand orcs should be able to successfully reach the bottom of the mountain. But just rely on this amount to support Waterdeep City?

The Red God—that is, the consciousness of the master—did not come as scheduled~www.readwn.com~ I don't know what was delayed. Fewer than five Nekos death knights are known to survive, and he is the only dragon knight left. Leave here when the orcs are dead, and then go to the next race to control. Anyway, what Nekos wants is the destruction of the world, it doesn't matter which race is lucky enough to be the last to die.

A horn sounded from the castle, and there was another catapult salvo. These human warriors are growing fast and are growing into an elite army standing on the corpses of orcs. But it doesn't matter, human beings have their own weaknesses, and a strong army is not difficult to deal with.

What the death knight is most worried about is the vision of the commander on the other side. This is the only reason for the failure of the orc support. If Blackblood Castle was occupied in advance, and if it started to go south earlier, if it wasn't for the "reputation" that Knox would have worried about together, the predicament of Waterdeep City would have been solved long ago.

Just then, a violent flash, followed by a succession of smaller flashes, erupted from the southern horizon. After a period of time, violent magic fluctuations came, and every spellcaster clearly felt the impact of the waves.

The death knight snorted coldly, ordered the orcs to continue charging, turned the dragon's head, and left the battlefield north. (To be continued.)
