Despite sustaining heavy losses, the trolls pressed on, using their brute force to smash through the trench barriers and engage in brutal close-quarters combat with the orc infantry. In the chaos, trolls snatched up orc warriors, tossing them aside like ragdolls or pummeling them into the earth. The orc soldiers, now facing the fury of enraged trolls within their ranks, struggled to maintain their formation amidst the fray.
With the trench defenses crumbling, the Orc King quickly realized that the tide of battle was shifting again. He ordered his forces to pull back, creating a more mobile frontline that could adapt to the trolls' sudden aggression. Orc archers on the flanks drew their bows and unleashed a volley of arrows, aiming for the trolls' vulnerable spots as they closed in on the infantry.
