Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

The dangling orc warrior saw the human archer on the city wall drew another arrow. He roared and he didn't rely on two feet to climb at all, and simply used the strength of his arm to grab the two ends of the wooden ladder. Go up.The human archer shot two arrows in succession, one arrow was avoided by him, and the other arrow hit his left shoulder, which did not affect his crawling speed at all.

The orc soldier climbed up in a few steps. He stomped on the wooden ladder with his feet, and jumped more than a meter high, and his whole body jumped up directly.The orc soldier was still in the air, and he had already clenched the dagger that was in his mouth with his right hand, aimed at the human archer who had repeatedly shot himself, and rushed over.

The longbow in the hands of the human archer couldn't resist at all. He staggered back, touching his waist, preparing to draw out the short sword for self-defense.But the orc pounced at a speed much faster than he could draw his sword, and the human archer was about to die under the orc warrior's short sword.He only heard a loud drink, and the training swept through from top to bottom, cutting the half-air eared orc into two pieces, but the human warrior with the battle axe attacked and rescued his companion.

The orc was chopped into two pieces by an axe. Of course, the forward thrust was weakened. He fell to the ground with a thumping sound. The human archer escaped from death. He retracted his right hand from the sword and drew a feather arrow from the quiver behind. , Shot into the head of the orc soldier who fell to the ground and harvested his life.

After the human warrior holding the battle axe cut off with an axe, he didn't stop at all, and rushed directly to the edge of the city wall. At the same time, another orc warrior emerged.Before the orc warrior could react, the human giant axe warrior rounded the axe in his hand again and chopped off half of the orc's head.

The blood spurted out and spilled the face of this human giant axe warrior. The latter didn't care about wiping it at all. Instead, he picked up the axe in his hand again, because the third orc climbed up again.

"Puff!" A feather arrow passed by the human giant axe warrior, and in the middle of the climbing orc's face, the orc covered his face and fell.

Needless to say, this is the masterpiece of that human archer.The human giant axe warrior roared loudly: "Brothers, come on, kill these green-skin bastards!"

"Yes, kill them!" Not far away, a human soldier responded loudly, and accompanied by a scream from an orc, the soldier who responded slashed down an orc soldier who was about to climb the city wall.

Encouraged by the human giant axe warriors, the human soldiers became more brave, and their cooperation became more and more tacit.In fact, the human soldiers stationed in Thor Fortress are training almost every day, combat skills, teammate cooperation...everything has been practiced tens of thousands of times. They wait for work, and they guard the fortress condescendingly. Geographical advantage.

Most of the orc warriors were herdsmen a few months ago. They were hurriedly called together, and they crossed the vast northern Taren prairie, rested for a while in the Beast Blood Fort, and barely received the most basic military training. Without cooperation, they are fighting by instinct.

The weapons of orc soldiers are far inferior to human soldiers. They have no defensive armor. Only a few people have self-made wooden shields. When climbing the city wall, there is no large-scale siege equipment, and even the use of wooden ladders to climb the city wall is messy. Everyone crowded together in a swarm of bees. Many times a rock was dropped and a large number of people were injured.

Orcs don't have archers, so they can't talk about using long-range shooting to suppress the defenders. Human soldiers standing on the wall can kill and wound the enemy at will.Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that the war is one-sided.But the human soldiers still saw the strength of the orcs, and many orcs even forcibly climbed the walls.However, with human superior forces, almost all of them were killed as soon as they stepped on the wall.

"Swish! Swish!" Dozens of rockets were nailed to the orc's battering ram, and the flames quickly ignited.The orc soldiers who were still trying to push the stakes against the city wall could no longer continue and had to run out.Of course, they were greeted by boulders, logs and feather arrows.

The battle is still going on, but tens of thousands of orc soldiers are now only less than 3,000 left. No matter what everyone knows, the outcome of this battle is clear.

When seventeen arrows fell in a pool of blood in the last orc, the entire Thor Fortress was suddenly immersed and fell into a strange silence, but this silence only lasted for ten seconds, guarding the wall. The human soldiers on board immediately uttered a triumphant cheer, and this huge cheer immediately spread throughout the Thor Fortress inside and outside.

The orc army in the distance did not make any response to the result of this battle. They did not send follow-up troops to support them, and just watched all their companions die on the battlefield.This really puzzled General Clark, so he immediately sent the messengers around him to report all this to General Keenster in the command post.

After a while, General Keynst received a report from the front-line commander, General Clark, and immediately took his adjutant and a dozen guards onto the wall.

Looking at the few orc corpses on the city wall, and then at the large swaths of orc corpses lying in a pool of blood outside the city wall, as well as the corpses of many human soldiers, General Keenster was slightly disoriented. Stronger than legendary.Looking at the orc positions in the distance, General Keenster was surprised to find that the more elite orc warriors were actually slowly retreating and retreating to the camp in an orderly manner.

General Keynst felt very strange. In the previous battle, although all the attacking orc soldiers were wiped out, it did not mean that the orcs were lost, because those orc soldiers were all old, weak, sick, and they were the most elite. The army is still a few kilometers away.

"Report to General Keynst!" General Clark strode up to General Keynst and said loudly: "The results have been counted."

"speak."

"Yes, sir." General Clark said loudly: "Our soldiers were killed in the battle, 46 were seriously injured, and 159 were slightly injured. Eight of the stone dump trucks were damaged beyond repair. Yu More than 410,700 arrows are consumed. Stone bullets are consumed..."

"Tell me about the orcs." General Keenster did not intend to continue listening, because the reserves of these strategic materials in Thor's Fortress are quite huge, and this little loss is just a small fraction.

"Yes, sir." General Clark thought for a moment, and said loudly, "About 29,000 to 33,000 people were killed in the orcs. The specific data needs further statistics to destroy the orcs, the siege ladder, and the attack. Twenty city mallets each. No orc captives were captured."

"Then what is the quality of these orc soldiers? You have been commanding at the front line, so you should have the most direct experience."

"Report sir, most of these orc soldiers are old orcs, and there are almost no young soldiers. Their weapons are quite poor, most of them are equipped with bronze weapons, and they have little protection. But they are very brave, yes, very Brave, able to use the simplest wooden ladder to climb the city wall many times under the tight defense of our army. Although they were killed as soon as they stepped on the city wall, that was because our number advantage was so obvious."

General Keenster waved his hand to indicate that he knew it. He looked at the orc army in the distance. At this moment, all the more than 100,000 elite orc warriors had withdrawn to the camp, leaving only a large empty space.

"It seems that this should be the orcs testing the defensive power of Thor's Fortress," General Keynst came to this conclusion after thinking twice. "The orcs can also make simple siege equipment, but it is obvious that their soldiers, at least These soldiers in the first battle were not very good at using them. Maybe they are going to go back and research more effective methods, maybe they are going to make more siege equipment?"

"It seems that we need to reconsider the defense of Thor Fortress. Only 60,000 people are stationed at a time. Will it be slightly less?" General Keenster thought silently: "Perhaps, I should adjust the deployment of the military. But. Increased the number of troops, originally divided into three units, taking turns to rest, now it is bound to be combined into two units, which will cause the soldiers to not take turns to rest well."

Standing on the side, Hans seemed to have guessed General Keynst’s thoughts, and suddenly said in a low voice: “General, there are many mercenaries, so let’s use it.”

"Oh? Tell me about it."

"Okay, General. These mercenaries may not be as good as our soldiers for combat, but they should be used for vigil, lookout, and transportation of supplies, etc., should they be good? So that our soldiers can get the most rest."

General Keenster nodded. This is a good idea. It is best to use these mercenaries to watch the night watch. Most of them will have similar experiences when taking risks. They should be more experienced. Just send some elite The soldiers are mixed with them, so there is no need to worry about their mistakes.Other soldiers can rest more in the camp to maximize their physical strength.In addition, the tasks of vigil and watching are not very dangerous. As long as the warning is given in advance, and the soldiers take over the defense line on the city wall, they will be fine.

"That's it." After thinking about all this, General Keenster issued an order: "Go to the Mercenary Guild and release the task. First recruit 2,000 mercenaries, then select 8,000 soldiers, and mix them with them. This ten thousand people Divide into two groups and take turns to watch the night and watch. You can arrange the specific matters. Be sure to ensure safety."

"Yes, Lord General!" Hans stood at attention and gave a standard military salute.
