Chapter 373 When the war broke out
Jianchang, Yuzhang, Yangzhou, is a place with many mountains and rivers. The mountains are continuous throughout the country, with many villages and valleys, and cities are mostly built in dangerous places to guard.
In Jianchang City, scouts came to report that nearly 10,000 orc cavalry crossed the mountains and were quickly approaching the city. County Magistrate Gao Xuan regretted it at this time.
Previously, Sun Jian, the Marquis of Wucheng, led his troops out of Lujiang to inspect various places to strictly prevent tribal orcs. Sun Jian's army passed through Jianchang to rest and recuperate, and happened to receive a military report. Yongxiu and found the whereabouts of orcs near Jiancheng.
Sun Jian led his troops to pursue him. Gao Xuan saw that both places were far east of Jianchang, which meant that the invading orcs were bypassing Jianchang, so he mobilized Jianchang's elite troops to follow the army to support Jiancheng.
But who would have thought that the orcs that invaded from the west had obviously invaded the east of Jianchang. Half a day later, another team of orcs appeared near Jianchang.
The elite soldiers were not there, so Gao Xuan had to seize the city and convene the nearby people to enter the city. More than half of the people entered the city, and on the hills in the distance, the figures of the orc black wolf cavalry had already appeared in people's sight.
"County magistrate, there are trolls' velociraptors, our city wall cannot stop them." On the city wall, a player leader next to Gao Xuan frowned and said to Gao Xuan.
The Jianchang city wall is less than 100 meters long, orc wolf cavalry may be able to stop it, and the velociraptors have stronger jumping power, and they can even leap on the straight city wall. Jianchang's city wall cannot stop them.
"You may stop them for a moment?" Gao Xuan asked the player.
It is not enough to stop the velociraptor, and it is good to block the wolf. The cavalry is quick and can be close to the front in a short time. There are still many people under the city who have not entered the city. Gao Xuan hopes that the players can block the orc cavalry for a moment.
"Let's do our best. We're enough people. We're just worried that the orcs will bypass us." The player told Gao Xuan.
"You should act, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, and then build the west part of Changcheng, and you will be allowed to build a village." Gao Xuan said seriously.
"The city gate is wide open, let them discard the debris and close the city gate in a quarter of an hour. The elite soldiers mount the wall to prepare for the battle in the city wall. Recruit people who can fight, line up a hundred meters away, and prepare to face the enemy." Gao Xuan was sweating on his face, and he gave orders one by one with a cold face.
The soldiers scattered, shouting and shouting, and screaming outside the city kept acclamating. A large number of people accelerated their entry into the city. Some people who were unwilling to abandon their responsibilities would also be beaten and scolded by soldiers.
"Burn their property!" Gao Xuan shouted to the city wall.
When the people entered the city, there were narrow paths on both sides of the city gates. Countless players rushed out of the city, the horse army and infantry were chaotic, and many system soldiers followed the players, and the tens of thousands of players gathered outside the city for a moment.
"We all have the people who have broken the halberd here, and there are only more than 3,000 players left. Many of them have gone to Jiancheng before." The player next to Gao Xuan pointed outside the city and said to Gao Xuan with a wry smile.
Gao Xuan also had a bitter smile on his face. Now he was unintentional. Gao Xuan needed to observe the orcs and ordered the city gate to be closed at any time.
The orcs' strange screams have already entered the city, and the player's army has also begun to charge at the orcs.
A wolf is much bigger than an ordinary wolf beast. It has black fur all over, runs quickly, and has strong synergy between them.
The weapons of these wolf cavalry have been replaced by hard wooden sticks and short axes to exquisite swords and spears. The origin of these weapons can be imagined by the Han Dynasty.
In addition to the orcs riding a wolf, there are also some trolls with velociraptor mounts in this raid team.
With sharp fangs and claws, the harsh hissings were whispering. Faced with the players' military formation, these velociraptors were more warlike than wolves. With dozens of meters away, the velociraptor's strong hind feet jumped up, crossed the front row of swords and shields, and smashed into the military formation like a culling.
Sharp teeth and thick tail whips all over the body. Short, sharp front paws like short hooks can scratch the human head and face, and can also tear the enemy close to it.
The blood spread, and the troll riding a velociraptor made a terrifying scream of excitement, waved the spear in his hand, and faced the surrounding humans, the troll's blade hit back.
There were more than 10,000 tribe cavalry, only nearly 1,000 velociraptors and trolls, but only these nearly 1,000 trolls disrupted the attack rhythm of the tens of thousands of players' army in a moment.
"Photography!" The archers in the back formation rushed to shoot, with only one shot, and the velociraptor jumped again, running for a short time, and had already started killing in the archers' lineup.
The wolf cavalry has already fought. In later generations, these wolf wolves, who are called "jumping" by players, crossed the shield soldiers' blocking, and cooperated with the wolf cavalry that then collided with the sword and shield to kill the human sword and shield defense line with front and back.
"Gun array!" The human player shouted, and countless spears stabbed at a tribal cavalry from all directions.
Because of the forum, players know the fighting style of tribal orcs better than local people. After the front row of swords and shields, a large number of spearmen were prepared early, and even a large number of spearmen were reserved in the back formation of archers.
There are various long spears, and the weapons in the hands of more soldiers are golden bamboo spears. These weapons can easily break through the orc's skin and penetrate the orc's strong body.
More than a dozen spearmen besieged an orc, and everyone worked together to lift the orcs whose bodies were pierced by spears.
Some orcs whose joints were broken and locked by guns roared and screamed. Without the help of their kind, the one who waited for them would definitely be death.
Unfortunately, the orcs rescued them too quickly, and some orcs who were provoked by spears were arrogant and pulled the weapons that were inserted into their bodies.
The attribute advantages of orc veterans and elites allow players, such as at most intermediate levels, to maintain a tactical advantage for a moment.
The tactics are correct, and the fighting style is also reasonable. All the things targeted at orcs have been thought of. Unfortunately, under the suppression of absolute strength, the player's army only caused some casualties to this orc cavalry, and there were already signs of defeat.
At this time, the mountains were covered, and a rapid march was running towards Jianchang on the rugged official road near Jianchang.
"Gan Xingba, don't wet your pants when you meet orcs!" Gan Ning, who was in brocade clothes, said, "A army of more than 20,000 people, with the support of the march. The leader Wei Hunchong, who was wearing brocade clothes beside him.
"Boy Wei, but relying on his physique to surpass me, I will definitely be good-looking when I upgrade my life level. I will be the second in command of me earlier to save my skin and flesh and blood." Gan Ning shouted at Wei Hun.
"Your Jinfan thief Xiaochi Xiaolang is boring. It's better to train troops in dangerous places and become the second in command of the Shizi. If you need help, just look for someone." Wei Hun curled his lips.
By the way, Wei Hun was a soldier released by Donglai. He met Gan Ning when he was wandering in Ba County. Gan Ning was not young, but he was a slutty person.
After leaving Donglai for a while, Wei Hun felt that it was meaningless, so he recruited some soldiers and began to practice troops and fight for dangerous places.
At first, Wei Hun met Gan Ning in Ba County. When he saw Wei Hun had no official position, he led tens of thousands of war soldiers. Gan Ning, who was not doing his job properly, had the idea of Lawei Hun joining the group as a water thief.
Wei Hun naturally had no interest in fighting with Gan Ning. The two had fought several times. Gan Ning was very skilled in martial arts, and Wei Hun was no match. But Wei Hun relied on his physique and fought like a fight, Wei Hun always beat Gan Ning.
The two of them were not acquaintance and gradually made friends. After Wei Hun's army was promoted, he looked for suitable and dangerous monsters to kill. Gan Ning was useless and often asked him to fight.
Until the news of counterattacking orcs appeared in the group of Donglai soldiers, Wei Hun led his army out of the dangerous land near Yuzhang to attack orcs.
The city gate of Jianchang was closed, and outside the city gate, there were still a large number of people crying and shouting that they had not entered the city. Gao Xuan couldn't bear it but could only face him coldly.
It takes time to open and close the city gate, but when the player's army was defeated, the wolf cavalry could rush into the city in a moment, but he did not dare to open the city gate again.
"Hiss~" The player was defeated, and the only one who escaped was left was allowed to run away. The velociraptor was staring at the crying humans outside the city gate, tilting his head and making an excited scream.
The official road opposite the city gate was blocked by a hill at the end. When the orc butcher's knife rose again, under the sun, the shadows of human figures gradually emerged from the corner of the official road.
