Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 395 Bloody Battle in the Imperial Capital (1)

Although it is now the end of August, the temperature in Fernando City is still extremely hot. Soon after the sun rises from the east in the morning, it is already unbearably hot.The gate of the orc camp made a creaking sound, and a large group of orc warriors filed out, forming a square formation on the open space outside.

Soon, these orc warriors lined up in a neat array. They did similar things in Thor’s Fortress, but this time it was to show off their strength and force the warriors of other clans to attack. The main force of the bear clan attack is them.

The Beast King and the Prophet Evan stood on the chariot and slowly appeared in front of everyone. Lei, the commander of the Mammoth Legion, personally drove the Beast King, and the chariot of the Mammoth Legion and the blood guard of the Beast King followed closely behind.In the end, there were a large number of warriors from other clans. These warriors did not have the aura of the warriors of the Wild Bear clan. Not only were they very different in physical appearance, they also showed timidity and fear for the warriors of the Wild Bear clan in their eyes. Look.

Orcs make a living mainly by grazing and hunting. Their army is actually the young and middle-aged in the clan. They usually do nothing for their lives. Once a war breaks out, they immediately bring their own weapons and become warriors.This method has been going on for thousands of years, but it has been changed in the Beast King and Prophet Evan.At the suggestion of the prophet Evan, the Beast Emperor classified the members of the Barbarian Bear clan, and the strongest males were individually selected for high-intensity training and became qualified fighters.

Using this method, the Barbarian Bear clan quickly acquired a powerful army, thus quickly establishing its absolute dominance in the orc tribe.These elite warriors are the foundation of the Wild Bear Clan, and as long as they are still there, the Wild Bear Clan will still be the ruler of the orcs.Now, the Beast Emperor has led all the orcs to outside of Fernando, the imperial capital of mankind, realizing the orcs’ dream of fighting back to the South Tarun grassland for hundreds of years, and as long as the Beast Emperor brings them one step forward, they can make this complete The huge empire composed of humans falls apart, and the orcs will take advantage of the situation and rule the entire continent.

Standing tall on the battlefield, the Beast Emperor looked at the wall of the imperial capital a few kilometers away, and gave his fighters a final inspiration: "We have finally waited for this day. The honor of the orcs, the dreams of our ancestors, and our people. Your future is in your hands. Go ahead, my warrior, use the most powerful force to destroy everything that stands in front of us, conquer this city, conquer this empire, and conquer the entire human race!"

"Kill!" The warriors of the hundreds of thousands of Brutal Bear clan shouted in unison, and the huge momentum also shocked the other clans who are also orcs. Many people's faces already appeared in horror, and they no longer dared to resist the Brutal. The idea of ​​the bear clan, the biggest hope of these orcs now is that the beast king can keep his promise and allocate the corresponding land and wealth to him so that he can live a good life.

The Beast King gave an order, and the orc attack began.Fifty dump trucks with wooden wheels were slowly pushed and placed less than 3 kilometers away from the city wall of the Imperial Capital. Soon, the ejection rods of these dump trucks were pulled into a horizontal state by the noose. The heavy objects removed from some building were placed in the "spoon" behind the ejection rod.Most of the heavy objects that were removed were stones, which could be regarded as stone bullets.These stone dump trucks were obtained by the orcs from the walls and warehouses of the Thor Fortress. After a simple study, the orcs have mastered the method of using them and learned that their range is about 2000 to 3000 meters.

Hundreds of siege vehicles are scattered in an area of ​​about ten kilometers. These siege vehicles are much larger than they were in Thor Fortress, and they look stronger, especially the baffles on the siege vehicles. Many orc warriors who followed the car were protected.This is mainly because the orcs have obtained part of the human siege equipment production technology in Thor Fortress, which can make this kind of siege vehicle larger and stronger.There are 8 orcs in each siege vehicle pushing with all their strength, and there are more than ten people behind each siege vehicle. They will become the first wave of fighters to reach under the wall.

After the siege carts are scattered orc warriors in a loose formation. Since the walls of the imperial capital are only 5 meters high, orcs who are generally more than 2 meters tall can easily carry a wooden ladder less than 5 meters in length. , And these orc warriors carrying wooden ladders are also protected by orc warriors holding shields to prevent them from being attacked by human shooters.

A huge whistling sound passed through the air, and the 50 orcs started to launch "stone bombs". After more than 100 kilograms of "stone bombs" flew in the air for more than ten meters, they slammed on the walls of the imperial capital. , The stone chips flew all around immediately, and these "stone bullets" either bounced fiercely, continued to roll and flew out, or directly fell apart, covering a range of several meters around.

Bacon stared blankly at everything in front of him. As the captain of the Royal Knights Squadron, Bacon was now a commander of 60,000 people, but there were only a few hundred people who could be called elite. They are all holy knights and trainee holy knights of the Royal Knights. About one-third of the soldiers are soldiers who have undergone military training. The rest are ordinary men recruited temporarily.

The attack of the orc dump truck made Bacon's recruits flustered for a while, but under the comfort of the Captain of the Holy Knight and many veterans, they quickly recovered their peace.Bacon looked at the siege vehicle and the large number of orc warriors behind him slowly in the distance, and he sighed helplessly. The peace that this city has enjoyed has been too long.

According to General Orlando’s estimation, the first wave of orcs’ offensives would be very fierce. If human elites were placed on the front line, they might be exhausted soon. When Bacon received the order to garrison the north gate of the capital, he I also received another order from Orlando in private. If the orcs attacked too fiercely, Orlando would allow Bacon to retreat immediately, relying on the buildings in the city to resist.

The orcs’ siege equipment can cause huge damage to the city walls, but in the face of the millions of houses in the Imperial City, Bacon does not believe that the orcs will destroy them one by one with a stone dumper. Besides, there are no bunkers on the walls. Yes, and many of the buildings on the Imperial City Wall are so strong that they may not be able to withstand the stone bombs emitted by the stone dump truck.

"Our boulder truck will start to fight back." Bacon saw that the orc's siege engine was in range, so he gave this order.The stone dump truck that the humans fixed on the wall of the imperial capital immediately began to move, and quickly threw round stone bullets, which also destroyed many orc siege engines and killed hundreds of orc fighters.

When the siege troops in front of the orcs entered a distance of 500 meters from the imperial capital, the human stone dumplings were powerless due to the angle and range. Originally, Bacon should have ordered the use of bows and arrows to cover the orcs in order to maximize To kill the enemy, it’s a pity that Bacon doesn’t have too many soldiers in this area. The holy knight is limited to his own beliefs and absolutely does not allow the use of weapons such as bows, crossbows, daggers, and the newly recruited fighters can’t even hold spears and swords. How can you expect them to shoot feather arrows with accurate heads?If a potential recruit wants to meet the standards of a shooter, he usually has to undergo a whole year of rigorous training. There is no such time now.

Without the support of the archer, the orcs moved forward at full speed, and soon someone came under the wall.The orc with the wooden ladder did not hesitate to put the wooden ladder on the wall, and then quickly began to climb.The wall of the imperial capital is no more than 5 meters in height. This is no way. After all, the wall of Fernando City stretches for hundreds of kilometers. Here is the junction of grassland and hills. Where is so much stone?

"Kill!" Seeing this situation, Bacon roared with all his strength, and commanded the human warrior to resist the orc attack.Dozens of holy knights took the lead, brandishing weapons in their hands and attacking those climbing orcs. Under their lead, the newly enlisted soldiers also fought side by side with the veterans, and slowly adapted to this bloody fight.

The 5-meter-high city wall is difficult to prevent orcs from climbing. More and more orcs appear on the walls of the imperial capital. The pressure on the human defenders is also increasing, and the casualties are increasing.These orc warriors are the most elite warriors of the Wild Bear clan. The human side can easily deal with them except for the holy knights. How can those veterans take 3 to 5 people to resist the attacks of the orcs, and those who don’t know how It takes more than a dozen new recruits to resist. Sometimes an orc warrior starts mad, and dozens of recruits retreat in panic.

Although Bacon has been fighting on the front line, he still pays attention to the battle. The first thing the orcs do after climbing to the city wall is to destroy the human drappers as much as possible or prevent humans from continuing to use the drappers to attack themselves. Compatriots, and have repeatedly succeeded.Soon, the density of the drapery attacks on the human side became thinner, which allowed the orcs' follow-up troops to advance without interference.

Those orcs’ siege vehicles were basically useless. The orcs originally thought they would once again encounter the kind of bow and arrow covering shooting that they used in the Thor Fortress. It was the nemesis of the orcs infantry. Unexpectedly, on the side of the imperial capital, the battle began for a while. He has even controlled a lot of the city wall area, and has not seen the feather arrows shot by the human archer, which made the powerful orcs directly give up following the slow-moving siege vehicle, and directly strode at full speed.

Bacon wielded a long sword and stabbed an orc to death. He raised the shield in his left hand and slapped it hard at an orc who had just exposed his head. The latter fell without a hum.Bacon took advantage of this gap and shouted: "Retreat as planned!"
