376 The Power of New Weapons
I have opened a new book. I am playing a live broadcast in the fairy world. Please help me collect it and give some recommendations! Thank you, all book friends!
*********************
And what about continuing to defend the city? This idea is even more unreliable!
Not to mention the terrifying methods of the God of Death in Riverrun, if someone draws thunder from the sky to smash down the city gates and blow up the city walls, how can you keep guard?
Besides, after witnessing the easy annihilation battle in the afternoon, the pig-headed men on the city wall generally lacked confidence. Let alone the thunder bombardment by the mage, I am afraid that as long as people are sent to wait on the wall, these pig-headed defenders will all be defeated.
Embrace and disperse.
So after much thought, Krutch decided to come down and negotiate with Xiao Feng!
This negotiation also had two purposes. On the one hand, he wanted to pray for peace with this human being. On the other hand, he really wanted to see what the rumored God of Death in Riverrun really looked like!
To his surprise, this Death Archmage of Riverrun was not like the human mages he had seen before, who were all slovenly old men wearing gray robes, with a ruffled face and a bunch of hair and beard.
Instead, he was a very clean-looking young man with black hair, brown eyes, yellow skin, and a tall stature. This was the first time he had seen such a human being.
But what frightened him the most was the human mage's eyes, which were shining brightly. Every time they glanced over his body, it was like a knife scratching him. It made him feel very uncomfortable, as if he was naked in front of him, hiding any thoughts.
Can't stop him.
Even when he walked out of his tent, he felt as if he had just been fished out of the water, and he was sweating profusely.
This feeling was something he had never experienced before, even when he went to see the high priest of the Orc Alliance. He never thought that he would be so nervous!
That person is a mage, it’s really scary!
But now is not the time to think about these things. He must quickly return to the city and organize his personnel to withdraw from the city immediately. Otherwise, who knows whether these humans will change their minds?
Back then, when they, the orcs, were dealing with surrendering humans, they often did double-dealing things. Anyway, the absolute strong can do whatever they want when facing the weak.
Cruci returned to the city wall, where a group of people had been waiting for him. When everyone heard from him that the human archmage had agreed to their surrender and dedication to the city, and allowed them to leave with a certain amount of food and water.
Many of them breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, everyone has heard about the killing of the thousand soldiers by the human group in the afternoon. The thousand elites led by Lord Kruger were destroyed by the human cavalry in front of the human beings. They even had no power to resist. In this way
No one wants to resist the human army.
Soon the north gate of Greenstone Castle was opened. The pig-headed people helped the old and young one by one, and walked out of the city gate with the food and water allowed by humans. First, under the threat of the spears of human soldiers, they went to the designated venue.
Throw down your weapons and armor, and then go to the checkpoint ahead for inspection.
These humans still kept their promise and allowed the pig-headed people to take away five days' worth of food and fresh water, but other than that, they were not allowed to take away anything.
A few pig-headed men who had hidden some gold and silver jewelry on their bodies were searched and found out. They told them they were lying on the spot, but they forgot who the gang in front of them was.
Without saying a word, the spearmen stabbed at the pig-headed men who tried to resist. A stabbing sound of "puff-puff-puff" penetrated the eardrums of many pig-headed men, and the scene in front of them made their legs tremble.
Pig-headed men are quite proud of their thick skin. Even if they are not wearing armor, their thick skin will provide them with strong protection.
In the wild, even if you encounter male lions and tigers, as long as there are two or three wild boars, the male lions and tigers will not dare to easily provoke them, because their thick skin is too difficult to break their defenses.
And once the wild boar starts charging, no matter what lion or tiger you are, if they charge towards you, the tiger will not be able to stop it.
But now, the thick skin they are proud of has no protective effect at all in front of human spears. It is like flimsy paper. The humans don't need to use any force at all to prick them.
Heart-breakingly cool.
What's going on? You must know that among these pig-headed warriors, who retired from the army because of their age, they have fought countless battles with human armies, but when did human spears become so powerful?
Already?
In the past, even if they didn't wear heavy armor and just relied on their thick skin, they wouldn't be too scared when faced with human spearmen, because those human spears couldn't break their defense at all!
The diamond-shaped flat spear head pierced their bodies, just like scratching an itch. Even if they clamped the spear head with their muscles and exerted a slight force, the spear head could be broken off.
But the spears held by these human spearmen from Riverrun in front of them were different from the spears held by the human spearmen they had met before.
The tip of their spear was one foot long and triangular in shape. There seemed to be no sharp tip in front of it, but it was such a long triangular spear, and its lethality was astonishing.
With just one poke, the pig-headed man could be stabbed to the core, and without too much effort, the spear could be pulled out. Once the spear left the body of the pig-headed man, it would bring back a stream of bloody arrows.
As for the pig-headed men who were stabbed to the ground, they could not cover their wounds no matter how hard they tried to cover them, and blood continued to spurt out of their wounds. Within a few minutes, these pig-headed men died due to excessive blood loss.
And they all burped their farts.
Because Crutch had fought against human armies many times before, he thought he had a very good understanding of human armies and the weapons they were accustomed to using, but today he felt that his eyes had been opened by these human armies from Riverrun.
The composition and command methods of this army are very different from those of the previous human armies, not to mention the weapons they use. Although they are still in the category of cold weapons, they are much more powerful.
With these improved weapons, the orcs' previously boasted protective advantage of thick skin and thick flesh has basically disappeared in the face of the new weapons of the human army.
He kept all this in mind and planned to go back and report it.
After the demonstrations of the first few unlucky guys, the pig-headed people in the back became much more honest. No one dared to hide any gold, silver or jewelry any more. Even if there was any private treasure, they all obediently handed it over.
These humans are quite trustworthy. As long as there are no violations, after inspection, humans will allow them to go all the way north to escape.
It was pitch dark in the wilderness outside, but the pig-headed people who came out of the city still felt warm in their hearts. After all, it was better to escape from the castle alive than to be trapped and die inside.
At this time, Xiao Feng had already led a large group of people into the city. The first thing he did after entering the city was to order people to control the warehouse, check the wells, and go to the slave camp to count the number of people to avoid the presence of the pig-headed man.
Get handsy on this.
The reason why he asked them to leave immediately after negotiating with that Krutch was because he was afraid that if he gave them enough time, these orcs would do something in the city.
Now it seems that these pig-headed men have not made so many twists and turns, the wells have not been poisoned, and the grain warehouse has not been set on fire. Of course, this is mainly related to the fact that the warehouse is empty.
As for the slave camp, it was okay. Those pig-headed men did not send anyone to the camp to massacre them. They must have been afraid of revenge from Xiao Feng and others.
Although the slaves in the slave camp are relatively weak, they are still alive.
Xiao Feng sent people to count all night, and found that more than 25,000 people were rescued from the two slave camps in this city. This was the most humans they had rescued in a single time since they entered the Calabash Canyon.
Xiao Feng was very happy. Although the physical condition of these slaves was not very good and the food in the city was not sufficient, he was not worried. He had already had people harvest a large amount of rough oats outside the city. These foods can be eaten at any time.
It can be eaten.
What's more, they had captured several orc cities before and collected a lot of food, which was enough for them to feed their horses for a while.
At the same time, those pig-headed people who had escaped from the radiation range of Greenstone Castle were walking aimlessly north.
"Father, where are we going next? To seek refuge in Su Yancheng?"
One of Krutch's sons, Krutby, asked him that Suyan City is a large city located northwest of Greenstone Castle and is also controlled by the Pig-Headed Tribe. The owner of that castle is one of Krutch's cousins.
And it's not just Suyan City, there are several castles northwest of Greenstone Castle. They are all the territory of the Pig-Headed Tribe, and they are all related to Kruchi. Now that they have lost their old home, it is natural that these people are the most suitable people to seek refuge with.
.
But what Krubi didn't expect was that his father actually shook his head: "No, we are not going there, we are going to Qukai City!"
"What, go to Casterly Rock? It's so far there! And it's the territory of the snake people!"
Cruby was very puzzled by Crutch's thoughts, but at this moment Crutch lovingly reached out and touched the head of his most beloved son.
"Krubi, we can't defend Greenstone Castle. Do you think those idiots in Suyan City and Chiclo City can defend their cities? If I'm not wrong, it won't take long.
In Calabash Gorge, there is smoke everywhere, and no one can escape the attack of the Death God of Riverrun, and no one can stop him!"
Krubi stopped talking. His father was right. The God of Death in Riverrun was really terrifying. Their relatives could not escape the first year of junior high school, but they could not escape the fifteenth day. Based on his understanding of those relatives, they would go now.
If you take refuge, you will get nothing but cynicism, and you will even be used as cannon fodder by those people.
"And over in Qukai City, there is the prince of the Python tribe, Qu Kaichen, who is guarding it. He should be considered the highest-status orc in the Calabash Canyon at present. Only he can summon and unite all the tribes...
