It has to be said that the Tang Empire has a lot of new things. When the gathered orcs saw a helicopter landing in front of them, they were all stupid.
They were already very ugly, and many of them had been prisoners on the battlefield. They had served as soldiers, and they had indeed played with guns - Cyric flintlocks.
Now, when they saw the UH-1 helicopter, they finally realized that they might not be able to defeat the Tang Empire in their lifetime.
After demonstrating its outstanding and special performance, this kind of aircraft that could take off and land on the spot loaded a few orcs and flew towards the other side of the mountain range.
As long as you cross the high mountains, you can directly reach the war zone in the north of Shanping. This is also the fastest way to send the orc "mercenaries" in the Tang Empire to the front lines of the Great China Empire.
Although doing this is very expensive and does test the number of helicopters, doing so deliberately helps the Fengjiang Army quickly increase its frontline strength.
The goal of these orc troops is very clear: they want to help Fengjiang Army quickly capture Shanping at all costs!
As long as they can complete their combat missions, Her Royal Highness Le'er, the imperial concubine of the Tang Empire, who is also an orc, assured them that they can be exempted from slavery and no longer need to continue working for the Tang Empire for free.
After hearing the news, all the orcs were very excited. They thought this was an opportunity given to them by the beast god to gain happiness.
In order to seize such an opportunity, these orcs quickly started to sign up enthusiastically. Without even two days of training, they took the initiative to move to the front line.
The same goes for goblins. Although after so many years of torture, the number of goblin slaves in the Tang Empire has dropped sharply. The original hundreds of thousands of slaves have actually been reduced to ten, but the remaining goblins are still signing up crazily in order to reduce their sentences.
In the eyes of these goblins, the mortality rate of fighting on the front line is lower than that of mining in the mines of the Tang Empire. What's more, they heard that as long as they agree, they can get rid of their slave status. This is definitely a miracle.
Big temptation.
You know, these goblins are all serving their sentences for the tragedies of Zheng and Qi. Logically speaking, they can only hope to get rid of their slave status after twenty years.
But now, the civil war in the Great China Empire has given them an opportunity to escape from slavery early. How can they not be overjoyed?
The surrendered general of the Mirage Kingdom, Mirage Wuxiong, even volunteered to go to the front lines to help the masters of the Tang Empire expand their territory. Looking at the 1.45-meter-meter goblin general, Tang Mo finally agreed to this in a wicked way.
A request from a mighty general.
Le'er's side also selected an orc general named Shanlu, which means as majestic as the mountains. As the name suggests, he is a tribal general more than two meters tall, with a green face, fangs, bald head and one eye, which is very ugly.
This guy lost one of his eyes in the battle. He is very fierce and is also the leader of the orc slaves in the Tang Kingdom.
After hearing that he could fight for the Tang Kingdom, the general immediately expressed his willingness to fight for the Tang Empire, and eventually obtained the position of commander-in-chief of the orc mercenaries.
In fact, the Tang Empire sent three battalions of about 1,500 orc warriors to the front line in one day.
These unarmed soldiers received exciting weapons and equipment in the south of Fengjiang: including M35 standard steel helmets, Dahua Army clothes and early Tang Dynasty tactical armed belts.
In addition, they also received military boots and supplies that were ten times more than their daily supplies. The weapon was the Cyric Type 1 bolt-action rifle that many orcs were equipped with before they were captured.
With almost no training, these orcs, who were originally prisoners, immediately jumped into the battle. And their willingness to attack was much stronger than that of the Fengjiang defenders.
Soon, the Dahua garrison stationed north of Shanping discovered that their frontal attack troops had changed their tactics.
Under the cover of several Dahua Type 1 tanks, hundreds of Fengjiang soldiers began to attack. After taking two shots, these soldiers did not retreat. Instead, under the cover of the tanks, they approached the Dahua Empire's defense line.
At the beginning, the Dahua defenders did not take it seriously: it was not like they had never seen a strong opponent, so they did not panic.
After destroying two Type 1 tanks, the Dahua Army stationed on the position finally discovered something was wrong: Under normal circumstances, after two tanks were destroyed, the Fengjiang Army would be unlikely to continue to attack.
But today, this unit not only did not retreat, but continued to attack fiercely, charging directly at the defense line regardless of casualties, and then fought with the Dahua Army.
Just kidding, these orc troops are ruthless people who have been fighting against the difficult Qin border guards all year round. Even though they have been repeatedly frustrated and bruised on the Western Wall defense line, that does not mean that their combat effectiveness is weak.
The weakness of the orcs is that their weapons are inferior to those of humans, and their tactical arrangements are not as good as those of Qin. They are backed by poor supplies in the desert, but they still have some fighting ability.
But it was different for the Dahua Army, which saw the orc troops for the first time. Not only did they underestimate the orcs' combat effectiveness, they also overestimated their own courage.
"Ghost!" While fighting an orc soldier face to face with a bayonet, a Dahua soldier finally saw the faces of these "Fengjiang soldiers" clearly. He was frightened by the ugly faces that made people collapse, and his legs
He suddenly fell into the trench.
He screamed and was stabbed by an orc soldier with a bayonet, and then the defense line of the Dahua defenders began to waver.
After investing two orc battalions and penetrating the enemy's first line of defense, the Fengjiang Army then invested more tanks to cover the large forces and began to attack again.
This time the battle went very smoothly. The first line of defense of the Dahua Empire was penetrated. The Fengjiang Army advanced about 10 kilometers and stopped when it hit the second line of defense of the Dahua Army.
Zhao Zheng, who personally went to Shanping to supervise the battle, was confused by a lot of news: he got some news that civilians saw many tadpole-like planes crossing the mountains and flying from the Tang Empire to the Great China Empire.
This way.
Zhao Zheng didn't think there was anything special about this news: if the Tang Empire's planes did not come directly to bomb him, it would be a favor to the Great China Empire. Some planes helped Fengjiang's army transport some weapons and ammunition, which was not considered at all.
What.
Another piece of bad news made him particularly concerned: Fengjiang Army once again launched an attack and broke through his first-line defensive position.
"The telegram from the front said that some orcs appeared on the battlefield. They were very ferocious. Our army was temporarily in disarray, so we lost our defensive position." The officer who reported the matter introduced some situations.
When I said this, it was already the third day after the orc mercenaries broke through the defense line of the Dahua Empire. During these two days, Dahua has been investigating this matter.
In the end, the situation was basically determined: Fengjiang got a group of orcs from nowhere to help fight - the Tang Empire did not participate in the war, and everything was within a tolerable range.
Zhao Zheng, who was a little worried, asked: "Are you sure it's not the Tang army?"
"There are no orcs in the Tang army, and the weapons held by these orcs are not Tang's Type 56 assault rifles, but Cyric Type 1 bolt-action rifles like ours." The officer explained.
Zhao Zheng nodded, feeling that everything was still under his control: as long as the Tang Empire did not participate in the war, there would be no fundamental change in the situation on the battlefield.
As long as he holds the mountain screen, even if he loses all the peripheral positions in the north, as long as the mountain screen is still in his hands, he will have peace of mind all the way.
Anyway, the main direction of attack is not on his side. Zhao Chen will make progress in Hezhe soon. By then, the Fengjiang troops going south, as well as the orc monsters, will all have to return to Fengjiang to defend!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneered: "Order the armored troops to set up defenses on the left and right sides of Shanping! After delaying the enemy's attack, the forward troops retreated to the defense line built in the north of Shanping! Let's wait for work and wait for Fengjiang's rebels.
Come and die!"
He planned to back Shanping, lengthen the supply line of Fengjiang Army, fight a war of attrition in the most advantageous place, and leave the transportation pressure to Fengjiang.
In fact, this was his helpless move: because everyone knew that with the transportation help provided by the Tang Empire, Fengjiang's supply was already strong, and if he couldn't find a way to offset part of it, then Dahua would definitely suffer.
Make the most of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Dahua has an armor advantage, so Zhao Zheng felt that he would have no problem guarding Shanping: No matter how much your Datang Empire supports Fengjiang, it is impossible to send Leopard tanks over, right?
As long as the Tang Empire's heavy weapons and equipment appear on the battlefield, the Tang Empire's guarantee that it will not be involved in the war will become a lie.
Of course, even though this lie was discovered, the Dahua Empire had nothing to do against the Tang Empire. But if you do things like slap yourself in the face too many times, your reputation will still be affected.
For example, a certain lighthouse has slapped itself in the face too many times, and now it is making a fuss. Those who used to talk nonsense and receive dog food are no longer easy to get along with. Then there is a complaint: In the past, if you open your mouth, it means that the lighthouse is doing a good job.
Now all I can say is contemptuous words like "We can't compete with the lighthouse."
"Yes! Sir!" After hearing Zhao Zheng's instructions, his subordinates immediately went to deliver his orders - a month after the civil war broke out in the Great China Empire, the two sides were still in a stalemate on the battlefield, and no one had any hope of winning.
However, at the end of this month, many ugly orc soldiers suddenly appeared on the Fengjiang Army, and later on, many "boy scouts" were seen.
What makes people laugh or cry is that whether they are "ugly ghosts" or "child laborers", their combat effectiveness seems to be stronger than that of the Chinese army...

No status... Two updates first, and one more tomorrow depending on the situation.
