Chapter 25 Deadlock (Part 1)

The war on earth slowly fell into a strange state.

On the front battlefield, facing the Great Wall defense line built by humans for a long time, the orc army could do nothing even if they had the help of magic.

The Great Wall is both high and thick, and the whole body is reinforced by magic. When ordinary swords are cut, they can only leave an inconspicuous mark, which will disappear in a while. These walls are not simply connected together, but rely on the earth veins, and are uneven. Many tortuous urns are formed. If you want to rush in along the road, you will fall into the urns and be attacked by several sides, and it is easy to be wiped out.

Therefore, to attack this line of defense, you must rely on equipment such as cloud ladders to climb the city wall.

However, when it comes to the level of siege equipment, the orcs' skills are really a bit terrible. Over the years, they have not been able to invent something more powerful - it is really unnecessary. The orcs themselves do not have the habit of building high and thick city walls, and they also do not have the habit of siege. What's more, even facing the towering and steep city walls, aren't there flying monsters and middle and high-level strong men?

But for the Great Wall defense line, flying monsters are useless, and middle and high-level strong men are also useless.

Humans also have flying troops, and the number is also huge. Perhaps the total number is not as large as that of the orcs, but at least it is enough for defense.

In terms of the number of strong people, the human side has an absolute advantage. In the last battle, the confrontation between the legendary strong men of both sides ended with the retreat of the orc side. Unfortunately, that battle took a long time and ultimately did not have any decisive significance for the battle situation.

On this point, the situation happened to be the opposite of the flying soldiers.

But if the Great Wall defense line is used as the battlefield and the legendary strong men on both sides start a long battle, the number of people on the orc side will be fully revealed. At that time, I am afraid that the legendary strong men will suffer a lot, which is something that the orc emperor cannot accept.

Ordinary soldiers lose some money, which is not a problem for such a clan battle, but the number of legendary strong men is not large, and if they lose some money, the situation will be even more disadvantageous.

Since the legendary strong men cannot fight, the orcs are naturally at an absolute disadvantage. If you want to attack the city, you can only fill in the lives of humans.

Do they have enough lives?

Of course there is.

But the Orc Emperor did not intend to use his life to fill that terrifying line of defense.

"No need." He said in the evening military meeting, "there are more people than us on the human side, and the food is definitely more nervous than us. Moreover, they lack sufficient casters, treatment for the wounded, and cultivation of the patients... all of them are at a disadvantage."

"More importantly, there is something wrong with their logistics line." The emperor's old face had a cold smile. "Ten thousand people are constantly destroying behind them, and his Majesty's envoys are attacking the temple and altar. They can't last long!"

This is the result of the discussion of the staff. According to their estimates, the military rations of the human side will only last for about a month. In a month, millions of troops will face the dilemma of shortage of food.

At that time, humans will either take the initiative or retreat, and have no other choice.

Emperor Yiluo was not worried about the safety of the mobile troops. They were not as isolated and helpless as the mobile troops of the Southern Legion of the Gold Coin Federation. Behind them were the great gods and a large number of divine envoys.

These Gods will provide them with sufficient intelligence and support in a timely manner so that they can maintain a good condition and even deliver supplies to them. With the help of Gods, even though they are alone, they are not alone.

On the contrary, in reality, they might live more comfortably and freely than the main force team that was staring at the human army on the west side of the Great Wall defense line.

After all, the enemy they have to face is not strong, they are nothing more than some militias or noble private troops. The elite human troops have either gathered on the Great Wall defense line or are guarding the key points on the supply line. It is impossible to draw enough troops to deal with them.

As for the issue of drawing a few strong people, what is the use of facing tens of thousands of troops and those who may be hidden in the army? It's just a death sentence.

In fact, humans can also mobilize several troops to encircle and suppress them. With the advantage of military strength, this is not impossible. However, the orcs have a divine envoy to collect intelligence. They easily avoided the two encirclements and suppressions of the human army. The second time they even took the opportunity to set up a trap and launched a beautiful counterattack.

As the days passed, the weather gradually became warmer, but the commanders on both sides felt cold.

What is cold is not despair or fear, but murderous intent.

Human beings have suffered huge losses, and it is fine to have lost their losses in positional warfare before. During this period, they were really suffering heavy losses by the orc mobile troops in their hinterland. At least hundreds of towns and villages have turned into ruins, and more than 100,000 civilians needing assistance were added to refugees - and all this has just begun.

There are not many 100,000 people, but it is not so easy to prepare food and residence for 100,000 people.

After repeated considerations, the human side finally had to choose to migrate these 100,000 people towards the Great Wall defense line. Only there can they get enough food and residence.

As for the dangerous issue, if the army is defeated, where else is not dangerous?

As for the orcs, the mobile troops were also a little tired after more than ten days of continuous combat. The most important thing is that their biggest goal of this trip has not been completed yet.

For the orc mobile troops, attacking the hinterland of humans and creating a large number of refugees is just a by-pass target. Their main goal is to destroy the supply line of humans. However, humans also expected this. Every stronghold on the entire supply line is heavily defended, almost all of which are fortresses, and there are heavy troops to guard. The orc mobile troops are enough to attack noble castles or towns, and they can be used to attack fortresses with heavy troops, but it is far from enough.

Under such circumstances, these orcs who were deeply behind enemy lines couldn't help but become irritated.

According to tradition, at this time they should capture a large number of humans, force these civilians to attack the fortress, and use their lives to consume the weapons and morale of the fortress defenders. This method is cruel, vicious, and very effective.

However, this time it won't work.

When the Orcs held a military meeting to discuss the plan at night, they heard the roar coming from the sky.

The sturdy tent was torn to pieces, and the huge green jellyfish looked at them with their terrifying scarlet eyes.

Sui Xiong said nothing, but his attitude was already very clear.
