Chapter 66 Departure
If we look at the mobility of the orcs on the wastelands by the standards of the nineteenth-century army on Earth, the prospects of mankind will be extremely pessimistic.
Before humans had trains, cars and planes, the movement power of the human army was like a turtle climbing compared to orcs. Even if we compared the equipment level of humans during World War II, the maneuver power of the orcs still had its own unique features without large-scale airlift capabilities.
The key is that the orcs' animal husbandry has cultivated a traditional logistics system that assists a large number of livestock, and most importantly, the terrible physical constitution that exists on the flesh of each individual orcs themselves.
Most orc races have physical strength that can still travel more than 200 kilometers a day when their weight is more than 50% of their body weight (the average light level of twelve hours in winter). This speed will not cause too much physical strength to be lost by the orcs, nor will it affect the orcs' camping and eating, and even prepare for war in unexpected situations. During the long evolution of the orcs, the orcs have almost their whole life to follow large groups of livestock to migrate on the wasteland, so their foot strength is quite terrifying.
As for the famous long-legged centaur among the orcs, it is even more amazing. In the short-distance assault on the wasteland, these guys can run highways of more than 100 kilometers per hour. Even if it is a long-distance raid, it is easy for them to travel 5600 kilometers a day, as long as they can ensure supplies.
The terrifying physical strength of the orcs gave them unparalleled maneuver combat capabilities. Not to mention, this weight and physical ability alone could make the human soldiers on earth feel ashamed and die of death. In ancient times, the orcs had such strong physical strength to form an invincible high-motor-powered tank legion, which was invincible; and even in modern times, the orcs armed with modern industry, could become assault troops with extremely small dependence on logistics, with extremely terrifying combat radius and sustainability.
If these data are obtained in the history of human wars, it is definitely a very terrifying number. Even in the modern wars of the 21st century on Earth, the power of large-scale human corps cannot be compared with that.
Compared with centaurs, the human air force may have a combat radius that exceeds this number, and the strike distance between the strategic air force and ultra-long-range missiles can be even more overlooked. But that is the level of unconventional combat forces. Among the real conventional combat forces on ground operations, let alone the army overlord mechanized army of the last century, even the more modern air-raid army, under the barrel effect of logistics support supply restrictions and the differences in maneuver power of different troops, it is difficult to compete with the overall maneuver power of the orcs' large-scale centaur combat group.
The orcs, a strange and intelligent species on the other world continent, actually contain extremely terrifying war potential. Compared with them, humans only have the advantage in the fire density of modern weapons, information-based unified communication command and weapons of mass destruction.
Such a race, or a continent like the Orc Wasteland, seems to be extremely large in area, but by doing so, it really looks like a narrow cage to the orcs.
Even Zhang Quan himself gradually realized this fact after personally commanding such a large-scale marching of his subordinates. After he calculated it privately, he was immediately shocked! Even if he was just an otaku puppet army fan on earth, he knew a little about what this terrifying power meant to war, and he couldn't help but feel terrible for the power hidden in the orcs.
What is even more afraid is that this ability does not rely on external machinery like humans on Earth, but belongs to them themselves.
Orcs, a civilization that is completely different from humans on Earth, gradually opened their true colors to him as Zhang Quan gradually integrated into him.
...
After Berg, who flew back in the air, reported to Zhang Quan in detail about the discovery of the leopard man a hundred miles away, he immediately ordered the troops to speed up the march as a whole, and while marching, he urgently summoned the generals under his command to discuss matters.
"It was the subordinates of Russian Dilus who were fighting with the elders. It should be, that's right." Zhang Quan first asked the former Catman patriarch Carters to introduce the situation to everyone, and also let him appear in front of his subordinates.
He said, "When I just escaped from the Claws, I saw the people in the Claws in a mess and attacking each other. Until now, it has not stopped."
"What you mean is, should we take a quick action to eliminate them, or should we look at the situation around us?"
"No, patriarch, we should seize this opportunity and immediately take action to eliminate them. The Leopards on the wasteland are known for their strong mobility. Once they find our army approaching, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not immediately retreat and wait for support from other divisions. The Leopards fight to kill each other, but it does not mean that they have no precautions against foreign tribes. If the pressure brought by us is too great, it is also possible that they can complete internal integration in advance and deal with us in unison."
Zhang Quan nodded in his heart, and the same was true for him. While the leopard human race is still in chaos, thunder attacks and defeats are his established policy.
The leopards are not easy to deal with. They are the most terrifying assault infantry on the wasteland and are born sprint champions in the wasteland. They are invincible in the short-distance assault among orc races. The attacks are extremely fast and their movements are agile and fierce. They are the natural enemies of almost all lower orc races. Now they have the opportunity to annihilate some of them while they are weak in the field. It is naturally the best.
He would never tolerate any hesitation in the battle of such an enemy, and he must be more fierce than them. He actually advocated taking the initiative to fight, but although he agreed in his heart, he did not show it from his face.
He looked at the other subordinates and waited for their opinions.
Several other generals in the tribe, Bill Gates, the dog-headed man Grant, the centaur Glen, and Thor, who was recently promoted by Zhang Quan for his military achievements.
These guys were obviously unhappy with the appearance of Carters, the cat man, but they also agreed with him, especially Thor, who is Kenya's deputy and is very concerned about his elders.
"Captain! Lord Kenya, I haven't come back yet, how is his situation?"
Zhang Quan replied, "The situation is very bad. He must stay behind to monitor himself. His physical fitness can no longer be maintained."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!" Thor said anxiously, "There is no need to wait for the brigade to attack. It's enough for us scouts and centaurs to move. Leopards with less than a thousand are divided into two groups of melee. Our two pieces combined together are enough to defeat them."
Zhang Quan was also anxious when he saw others. Everyone was concerned about this old man in Kenya.
"Okay, then go!" Zhang Quan decided to believe in the combat power of the centaurs he had trained with his own hands. "Just use Thor's suggestion, the centaurs will attack the thunder of the hundred-mile thunder. Be sure to defeat this Leopard man. Gelan, you will lead the team, Thor will assist you!"
"Yes" the two agreed in unison.
"But you must pay attention. According to the cavalry combat regulations I have formulated, you must wait until the enemy formation is chaotic before charging, otherwise you can only surround the periphery and attack!"
"Yes!" The two looked at each other, looking very excited and unable to hold back.
"Okay, then go! The whole team set out!"
The two of them responded and immediately rushed out of the RV, rushing forward with a whistle of horses. Then the gathering whistle of the centaur cavalry sounded one after another in front of them. The centaur cavalry and scouts who were originally protecting the wings of the army gathered together in front of the whistle and shouting. After a moment, they turned into a swarm of bees that were moving away.
