"Lord Marquis, don't you still have three hundred thousand soldiers under your rule, and without sufficient soldiers, I ..."
"Needless to say, eighty thousand at most, that's all. ÷Miscellaneous∫Chi∫Bug÷"
It's not that Marquis Mark didn't want to send soldiers, but he couldn't, out of his three hundred thousand soldiers, two hundred thousand had already gone to support the Hill Grand Canyon, which was Duke Edward Hewlett's sphere of influence.
As a matter of common sense, Marquis Mark shouldn't have sent soldiers to Hill Grand Canyon, the Black Earth Plain was almost pierced through, he still had the leisure to support others?
Marquis Mark was forced to do this, the status of the Duke and the Marquis were not on the same level, the Duke's order, Marquis Mark did not dare to refute, besides, it involved a lot of interests and his handle.
Just at this time, a knight in silver armor, riding a fast horse rushed, silver armor knight does not wait for the horse to stop steadily from the horse rolled over and leaped down, landing smoothly.
"Mark 'Earl' lord, his majesty has ordered, the black earth plains war front is urgent, because the earl has not participated in military politics for many years, during the black earth plains war, all matters are handed over to Carlos 'legionary' management, his highness has already sent three hundred thousand troops to To reinforce the Black Earth Plains war front, Earl please return to Holy Dragon City quickly, this is His Highness's personal order."
The silver-armored knight pulled out a short dagger encrusted with jewels from his pocket, and seeing this short dagger, everyone around him fell to their knees with a crash.
"What did you just... call me?"
Marquis Mark gulped.
"Lord Earl Mark."
Hearing those words, Marquis Mark, no, it should be Earl Mark who directly fell off his horse.
"Also, Earl-sama, His Highness has personally sent someone to investigate the matter regarding the renovation of the Black Iron Fortress 14 years ago ..."
What the silver-armored knight said, Earl Mark could no longer hear, his ears buzzed, for hereditary marquises, normally there would be no demotion, unless it involved a head-killing crime, such as embezzling the cost of refurbishing the Black Earth Fortress.
The stench filled the air, and the 'Marquis Lord', who was majestic before, could not even stand up straight at the moment, limply paralyzed on the ground, and the officials who had slipped up before, retreated a few steps back.
Count Mark east window, was demoted a level, and may even head is not guaranteed, but the status of the blood lion Carlos straight line climb, from the deputy army chief directly to the correct, if calculated according to the empire's official position, the position of the Iron Blood Legion commander, higher than the count, the legion commander, after all, hold the power of the army.
"When will the three hundred thousand soldiers arrive?"
Carlos took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"A day at the most, it's drawn from the 'Grand Canyon of the Shire'."
"Very well. "
Carlos pulled the adjutant beside him and explained a few things to the adjutant.
"Lord Legionnaire, will this be too hasty, the reinforcements are arriving soon, why don't we ..."
The adjutant's relationship with Carlos was obviously unusual, and he knew how to judge the situation, and immediately changed his tone to legion chief, without the slightest sense of dissonance.
"There's no need to wait for reinforcements first, it would be a good thing if the horde's mongrels were stationed at the fortress instead, and also the most fearful of them destroying it from within the fortress, don't forget that their purpose is to invade us."
Carlos sighed, although attacking the fortress would cause a shocking number of deaths and injuries, one of his orders would result in hundreds of thousands of living beings dying in battle, but the battle had developed to the present, it was no longer a matter of the rate of deaths and injuries, as the saying goes, mercy doesn't control the soldiers, Carlos was ruthless enough, or else he wouldn't have been able to climb to this kind of position.
"Subordinate understands."
The adjutant immediately notified each of his subordinates, who in turn conveyed the order, and the army continued to approach the Black Earth Fortress.
As the army moved forward, Su Xiao, who had extremely strong eyesight, plus a higher location, could see the situation of the Black Earth Fortress.
At this time, the Black Earth Fortress is stationed in front of the tribal party's army, different from what was imagined, the tribal party did not use the fortress to build a defense, but set up an army at a highway in front of the fortress.
Tribal army, most of them are orcs, orcs are actually just a general term, including minotaurs, dog-headed people, lion-headed people and other subhuman races, these races in addition to the head is a beast characteristics, most of the body is similar to humans, but the body is taller than the human body, the average height of 2 meters 5 or so.
Of course, the tribal side of the army not only have orcs, there are goblins and dwarves, goblins all green skin, how to look like kobolds, as for the dwarves, their height in 1 meter 3 or so, although the body is short, but these like to stay bearded dwarves, extraordinarily solid body, the hand is not carrying a short-handled war hammer or carrying a wide-bladed axe, as for the trolls, for the time being, I have not seen.
In the tribal side, most of the orcs are cannon fodder, except for the minotaurs, and the dwarves are the artisans of the tribal side, their talent in forging far exceeds most of the races, of course, the dwarves' combat power is also very strong, belonging to the backbone of the tribal side, and their combat power is only below the trolls.
As for the goblins, these guys are good at alchemy, have a better magic talent and affinity, don't look at their five short bodies, but they are experts in war, the tribal side of the magic type of war weapons, are from their hands.
The last troll is the finale of the race, although most of the trolls IQ is not good, but the naturally strong body plus a certain degree of magic-free skin, so they become infantry killers, but the trolls are sparse, not until the critical moment will not go to war.
In terms of troop strength, the tribal side is about twice as many as the imperial side, but most of them are cannon fodder orcs, and in a real fight, it's not certain who will win or lose.
The human side has weapons made by the Elves, while the Horde side has weapons made by the Dwarves, each with their own strengths in terms of weapons.
Buzz~
The Imperial side's war horn blew, which basically meant that the war was about to begin.
Boom!
A low muffled sound pierced out from the back of the Horde camp, inside the Black Earth Fortress, black stone chips flew up dozens of meters high, if it wasn't close enough, one wouldn't have been able to hear the explosion, which should have been a bomb made by the Goblins.
Seeing this scene, all the soldiers of the imperial side were already furious, the thing that army chief Carlos feared the most happened, the tribal side was blowing up the Black Earth Fortress from the inside.
Once the fortress was blown out with large gaps, even if the Imperial side managed to retake the place, they would still have to face endless uproar from the Horde side.
It seems that the tribal side is also clear, the imperial side will be unremitting efforts to recapture the fortress, so as an aggressor they simply do not defend this place, direct destruction of the fortress, when the tribal army rushed out of the empire's territory, into a whole, wanton destruction, then there is the imperial side to suffer.
Knock, knock, knock...
The deafening sound of war drums came from the rear of the imperial army, a giant race with a height of about ten meters was holding a drum hammer, striking a huge drum with a surface full of runes.
Hearing this drum sound, Su Xiao's heartbeat began to speed up and the flow of blood elevated.
[You obtain the gain effect of 'Iron Blood Legion War Drum Song', movement speed +5%, strength +1, stamina +1, pain sense -20%].
This was a mega gain skill, and as the drums sounded, the soldiers of the Imperial side began to step forward neatly.
Wow. Wow. ...
With the rhythm of the beating of the war drums, more than 100,000 people's steps reached unanimity, making a wave-like sound.
The drums became more and more urgent, and the soldiers' footsteps came more and more, slowly turning from a stampede to a trot, and finally running wildly.
"Warriors, kill the Confucian and weak Imperial Army."
Su Xiao heard a roar from the front, but he was in the midst of the Imperial Army's crowd and did not see where there was a tribal army.
As a plains battle, there were no tactics at all, only battle formations.
The spearmen at the front of the imperial army quickly charged, they aimed the spears in their hands at the enemy, the rows of spears and halberds formed a horizontal line, this was the result of I don't know how many years of training it took to get there.
The two armies quickly intersected like two rapids colliding head on, just when the spearmen at the front were still three meters away from the tribal army, they suddenly stopped.
Buzz ~ buzz ~
The frequency of the war horn changed, and those spearmen neatly sidestepped, and a shield soldier with a tower shield rushed out from the back.
Bang!
A large row of shield soldiers holding nearly two-meter tall tower shields blocked in front of the spearmen, the tower shields met the enemy, and a spear and halberd poked out from the gap of the tower shields.
The two armies collided together, and those cannon fodder orcs in front of the tribal army were pierced through by the spears and halberds like skewered sugar gourds, and blood instantly dyed the ground where the two armies met red.
The sound of flesh being pierced was continuous, the screams were endless, if there were those who were not strong-willed, they would be scared out of their wits just by hearing this sound.
From the initial exchange, it was clear that the Imperial Army had the advantage, but, the Horde side's troop strength was simply too much.
Clanking when the sound of weapons collision into a piece, broken meat splattered, blood overflowed, shouting and killing sound rushed to the sky, this is the battlefield, the battlefield that is purgatory, no human nature, no use of sympathy, the only idea is to kill all the enemy.
Both sides of the army killed two minutes later, the Imperial Army front row of heavy shield soldiers were broken, both sides of the soldiers into the interspersed shape gradually gathered together, the chaotic white-water battle began.
Su Xiao, who is in the front and center of the imperial army, still didn't see the enemy, the soldiers of both sides are too many, and they can't hit him for a while, but it will be very soon.
Whoosh~
The whistling sound of breaking wind came from the top of his head, Su Xiao subconsciously lie down, you can't pretend to be a beeper on the battlefield, that will really die.
Boom!
A green glass bottle the size of a water tank landed a hundred meters away from Su Xiao, the glass bottle exploded just after it hit the ground, and the green flames spread rapidly to the surroundings.
Whew~
Where the green fire passes, the imperial soldiers instantly turned into ashes, the ground are glassy, the sour smell spreads out, the green fire probably spreads a few dozen meters after drifting away, the ground presents an oval glass surface, the diameter of fifty meters or so, the glassy ground can vaguely be seen melted into iron armor and weapons.
Su Xiao immediately stood up, a dog-headed man with a hand stained with a broken meat scimitar shouted and rushed towards him, he finally saw the enemy.
Chopping Dragon Flash crossed in front of his body, Su Xiao stepped forward, the blade light flashed, the scimitar in the hand of the dog-headed man was chopped off, and at the same time was chopped into two there was also that dog-headed man, directly killed in seconds.
[You killed the Tribal Army's low level infantry: Dog Head Man.]
You gain 10 points of Paradise Coins.
[Your talent 'Spirit Eater' activates, permanently increasing your mana by 6 points.]
...
Judging from the situation at hand, in less than ten minutes, the Spirit Eater would be able to devour 200 mana points, to the point where he would recover even more life and mana from killing his enemies.
Talent Effect (Passive): after killing a target, it will permanently take 1 to 30 mana points and restore the same value of mana and life value (if killing an enemy permanently increases 30 mana points, it will restore 30 mana and life value).
Tip: Each Derivation World can capture a maximum of 200 Mana, if it reaches the limit, the Spirit Eater will be fully activated and the recovery effect will be increased by 50% after killing an enemy (if it has already successfully captured 200 Mana, it will still recover an appropriate amount of Mana and Life after killing an enemy based on the enemy's strength, and will increase the recovery effect by 50%).
Su Xiao had just decapitated a dog-headed man, and he immediately felt a dozen unkind gazes looking at him.
"There is an enemy general here, kill him!"
A dozen cannon fodder orcs rushed towards Su Xiao, while the human soldiers beside Su Xiao subconsciously moved away from Su Xiao without any sense of propriety, which was actually the way to survive on the battlefield.
Su Xiao kicked away the orc corpses under his feet, he who had never participated in a large-scale cold weapon war found that this place was dangerous but great, the strong smell of blood and the shouts of killing in the sky were stimulating his nerves, and a smile appeared on his face.
