*****************

These hippo and rhinoceros people never expected that they would encounter such an aerial interception on their way to the mountain town of Napal.

So when they encountered Xiao Feng and the Black Shark helicopter he drove, these orcs put up a long snake formation that was convenient for marching.

The soldiers at the front formed a battle formation after encountering the Black Shark helicopter. Unexpectedly, they were wiped out by Xiao Feng with sixteen rockets as soon as the formation was deployed.

The next thing was simple. Xiao Feng drove the Black Shark helicopter in the air, plowing the fields along the ridges, sorting out the long snake formation formed by the orcs on the ground.

I was saving rockets again and again, trying my best to launch them in an orderly manner, but I still couldn't take care of this long snake formation.

After all, the hippopotamus and the rhinoceros each sent out two thousand people, making a total of four thousand people, forming a line that could be several miles away.

And Xiao Feng only had so many rockets. At first, one shot could kill or injure three or four people. But later on, these orcs were not stupid. They naturally knew how to break up their formation or lie down on the ground.

.

In this way, the lethality of his rockets will be greatly weakened!

Fortunately, the 30-caliber aircraft cannon still had a lot of shells. After the rocket shells were used up, he continued to plow the ground with the aircraft cannon, going back and forth twice until all the shells were fired.

After this round, Xiao Feng estimated that he would have to kill and wound more than 500 orcs, so he drove the helicopter with satisfaction and turned around to return home.

Nipangu, the leader of the rhino people, and Ulitan, the leader of the hippo people, who were hiding behind the team, looked at the team in front with tears in their eyes.

This is too tragic!

The two of them are also veteran members of the orc army. It can be said that they have spent most of their lives on the battlefield since they joined the army in their teens and have been fighting until now.

At first, the orc tribes were fighting each other. Later, the Holy See suddenly appeared and unified all the orc tribes, formed an alliance, and then led them to attack humans.

Over the years, the two of them have personally participated in hundreds of battles, large and small, but never once has it been as miserable as today!

The hippopotamus and rhinoceros have extraordinary racial talents. Even in the Orc Alliance, they are the strongest and strongest, with an average height of more than four meters.

The height of young warriors is more than three meters, and the height of adult warriors is more than five meters. In addition, the weight is also there, and the thick skin is equivalent to a set of natural heavy armor.

This kind of physical talent gives them an advantage in battles with orc tribes and wars with humans.

Especially when facing human beings, those human beings have no equal in front of them!

Therefore, as long as there is a war in which they participate, the result will be more victory than less defeat, and they will rarely suffer casualties, especially in recent years, when humans have been killed by them and have no courage to resist directly.

.

But today, they were attacked head-on without even seeing what their enemy looked like.

The battlefield was full of crying and wailing rhino and hippo people. Many people fell on both sides of the road. The dirt road was full of deep pits after the explosion. The surrounding areas of the pits were pitch black, but in the center of the explosion there were still people.

I saw many rhino and hippopotamus limbs and severed arms.

Many rhino and hippo people who were blown up in the air were even more miserable. At this time, they were lying on both sides of the road, wailing loudly.

Some of these hippopotamus and rhinoceros people had their limbs smashed, and some had their internal organs damaged by the shock wave of the explosion. This was the most miserable situation. With the current medical methods of the orcs, it was impossible to save them.

What awaits them is a long and painful death process!

Others were injured by fragments from rocket explosions. The fate of such orc warriors was also very miserable.

Although the shrapnel is very small, perhaps only as big as a human fingernail, the pain caused by such shrapnel remaining in the body is conceivable.

Such a small piece of shrapnel will cause inflammation and pus in the absence of modern antibiotics and surgical treatment, and the final result will be sepsis and tetanus.

Therefore, most injured orc soldiers will die in the end, but the death process is more painful.

Nipangu, the leader of the rhino people, and Wulitan, the leader of the hippo people, looked at the wounded soldiers who kept wailing, and finally gave the guards around them a wink.

The guards naturally knew what the leader wanted them to do, so they immediately led the team to the front of the battlefield, swung the sword in their hands, and gave the wounded soldiers a good blow.

Seeing that the war was imminent, the orcs' medical methods were very limited, and there was no way to save these wounded soldiers.

To keep them alive, people need to be allocated to take care of them, and the wailing and screaming of these guys day and night will greatly affect the morale of other soldiers.

So just get rid of all these 'burdens', so that you can be out of sight and out of mind.

Only these half-orcs can do such cruel things. After all, they are incompletely evolved human-animal hybrids, and the animal nature in their bodies has not completely disappeared.

It is impossible for human beings to treat their comrades so cruelly. As long as the wounded soldier is still breathing, what human beings want to do is to save him as much as possible, and will not give up easily unless it is absolutely necessary.

But things are different for half-orcs. When encountering such a situation, the animalistic genes in their bodies will kick in. To them, those wounded soldiers are 'burdens', and getting rid of them all is the best way.

This saves resources and eliminates burdens.

There were a total of 4,000 soldiers when they set out, but they were only halfway through and more than 700 were lost. This was a blow to Nepangu and Wulitan.

The two of them were no longer rushing like before. Anyway, they had already fulfilled their duty to inform the High Priest Zhuo Tuo, and they had also done the task of taking the lead in providing support. Now that they had suffered heavy losses, they naturally would not force themselves to stand out.

And who knows if the Death God of Riverrun will come back to kill him?

After receiving the order, the hippo and rhinoceros soldiers began to work as foreigners, first collecting the bodies of their companions on the road, and then walking slowly all the way.

The road that was supposed to be completed in one hour ended up taking an extra hour and only three-quarters of the way.

And at this stall, other reinforcements from the orcs also caught up from behind.

Nipangu and Wulitan were soon called to the camp of the high priest Zhuo Tuo behind for questioning!

The camp of High Priest Zhuo Tuo is located on a carriage, which is a large luxury carriage drawn by ten horses. Above it is a large circular tent similar to a yurt, which is the exclusive residence of High Priest Zhuo Tuo.

Wulitan and Nepangu were not allowed to board the car because they were too large. Instead, they knelt in front of the car. A short figure, only half a meter tall, walked out of the camp.

This creature's whole body was covered in a black robe, and its appearance could not be seen clearly. However, from the moment he appeared, the surrounding atmosphere became extremely strange.

Wulitan and Nipangu, who were usually fearless, were kneeling on the ground with their heads pressed tightly to the ground, not daring to raise their heads at all. It was obvious that they were scared to death of the high priest Zhuo Tuo.

"Were you attacked halfway?"

The voice of High Priest Zhuo Tuo was very strange, high-pitched with a hint of metallic friction.

"Reporting to the high priest, this is..."

The hippopotamus Wulitan had more dealings with the Holy See. At this time, he began to introduce the previous situation to the high priest Zhuo Tuo, and the high priest Zhuo Tuo did not interrupt them.

"So the Death God from Riverrun flew over from the sky?"

"That's right, he just flew here. If you don't believe me, you can ask Zhuolu the Golden Eagle."

After Wu Litan finished speaking, High Priest Zhuo Tuo did not answer, but fell into deep thought. After a while, he raised his head and looked at the sky in the distance.

After such a fuss, it was already afternoon. It seemed that the morale of the rhino and hippo people had been exhausted. Even if they rushed to the city, they would not be able to take the lead.

Of the 300,000 troops, he came out in a hurry this time and only brought tens of thousands of them. Rhinoceros and hippos were not available. And if he were to attack the city, the kobolds and werewolf cavalry he brought might not be easy to use.

.

High Priest Zhuo Tuo thought for a while, gave up the idea of ​​rushing over in one go, and chose a steady approach.

The orc pursuers who received the order also began to slow down, and it was not until about three o'clock in the afternoon that they began to appear in front of the Napal Mountain City one after another, but they were not in a hurry to attack the city.

And the first thing to do was to set up camp!

This also made Kyle and the others, who had been paying close attention to the movements of the orcs on the city wall, breathe a sigh of relief. They had just eliminated the last resistance forces in the city.

Now the soldiers are getting familiar with the city defense and seizing the time to repair it. If the orcs really rush over in one go, they may not be able to defend the city.

However, the enemy did not forcefully attack, which gave them a chance to breathe.

The purpose of this attack was to rob the orcs, so they didn't bring any baggage at all, but the baggage team still followed. The purpose was very simple. On the one hand, they really wanted to capture the mountain city. They were responsible for transporting as much of the orcs' baggage back as possible.

Arrive at Qukai City.

Another purpose was to serve as engineers. Seeing that the orcs were not in a hurry to charge, Kyle and the others mobilized some soldiers from the baggage team to quickly build the ancient city wall and set up traps and fortifications in front of the city wall.

On the opposite side, tribes of orcs rushed to the temporary camp one after another. The orc camp continued to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It can be foreseen that there will definitely be a bloody battle under this city tomorrow!

They should take advantage of the calm before the storm and be fully prepared!
Chapter completed!
