"The east wall is in danger!" The observers on the tower were sweating coldly as they watched the battle on the east wall.
Obviously, the east side is the weakest link of the Far North Fortress, not to mention that the orcs have obviously strengthened their offensive on the eastern front, causing the power of the city wall to be taken away by the orcs bit by bit![.]
Although more than 2,000 officers and soldiers resisted to the death, the orcs had no choice but to pile up the city wall with their lives, causing heavy losses to the officers and soldiers who were reinforcing the eastern front!
No one could have imagined such a scene before the war. The Dragon City General Staff deduced various scenarios, but they did not expect the orcs' determination to die. According to the general army, if it suffered half of the battle damage, it would probably take a step back.
Suspend the attack. But for the orcs, there is no such consideration at all. All they have to do is to do two simple things, one is to rush, and the other is to rush again.
"Brothers, how many of you are still breathing?" A lieutenant colonel in the equipment unit, which had just started to show its power and then went silent, slowly untied the bandage on his forehead and said to the anxious wounded around him.
"Sir, I can still fight!" Following his words, a soldier stood up. His left elbow had disappeared, and blood could still be seen from the bandage.
"Sir, I can do it too!" A soldier stood up. His chest was covered with a thick bandage, and he had obviously suffered a lot of trauma.
More and more wounded people stood up. As long as they could still move and wield weapons, they all stood up.
"Very well, brothers, our brothers are still fighting in front. Anyone who can move, pick up your weapons and follow me!" The lieutenant colonel picked up his weapons and strode out of the square where the wounded were temporarily parked.
His actions filled the entire medical center with a tragic atmosphere. The wounded grabbed their weapons and walked out of the medical center with pride. The military doctor responsible for treating them watched them walk out with tears in his eyes, but did not stop them.
A total of three thousand wounded people joined the Eastern Front, which was the most dangerous part of the battle. Their addition also gave the defenders on the East Wall a shot in the arm. However, it still could not change the increasingly critical situation on the Eastern Front.
kill!
On the east wall, a bandaged warrior roared and killed the orcs in front of him, while severe pain also came from his body.
He glanced down and saw a weapon stuck in his chest. This was the result of the orc's counterattack before he died.
His vision gradually blurred, the sound of fighting in his ears gradually faded away, and the sun rising from the east became brighter and brighter in his eyes.
Zhang Liao, who was on the high tower, was holding the sword at his waist with his left hand. He knew that he had failed. The Far North Fortress was about to fall. Facing the frenzied orc army, Zhang Liao was helpless.
"Pass me an order. In the name of the commander of the Far North War Zone, order all the troops in the Far North Fortress to resist the enemy attack to the death and fight to the last man!" After saying that, he strode down the tower. As the commander of the Second Army, Ji
The commander of the Northern Theater Command has done everything he can, but his misjudgment of the general direction has resulted in no matter how perfect the tactics are.
He planned to defend the Far North Fortress together with the soldiers of the Second Army. Even if he fought to the last man, he could not lose the Far North Fortress.
The battle on the east wall was the first to end.
Even with the addition of more than 2,000 wounded soldiers, the fall of the Eastern Front was still not restored.
The moment the east wall was captured, Thor cried.
Victory is close at hand, and the hope that the orcs have been waiting for for three hundred years comes to the Far North Fortress at this moment.
"Order the army to enter from the east front..." Just when Thor was about to order the orc army to enter the northern fortress from the east wall, he heard a dull sound in his ears.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Dull yet familiar, this is the sound of the horn.
Thor once again confirmed that the sound of the trumpet was coming from the east!
He looked towards the east, but the strong rays of the sun forced him to squint.
The sound of the horn came closer and closer, and gradually the entire Far North Fortress heard the familiar sound of the horn! They looked to the east in disbelief, towards the place where the sound of the horn came from!
Tap tap tap tap...
I don't know how to describe Zhang Liao's feelings at this moment. The so-called ups and downs are nothing more than this. When he was desperate, he found that there was a bright future in the dark. That kind of instant joy can no longer be described in words.
cavalry!
1st Cavalry Division!
They arrived a full day earlier than scheduled!
That's right, they are the branch of Longcheng's First Cavalry Division, the five thousand elite cavalry led by Ma Chao!
Previously, Zhao Yun suddenly divided his troops into two parts for no reason. Ma Chao led a force to attack the Far North Fortress with all his strength. Moreover, the 1st Cavalry Division headquarters also speeded up and would arrive at the Far North Fortress soon!
When Ma Chao saw that the Far North Fortress was about to be breached, he had no time to let his troops rest, so he issued the order to charge.
The horn sounding on behalf of the charge of the 1st Cavalry Division sounded, and the ground east of the Far North Fortress trembled because of the cavalry charge.
The orcs who were celebrating the capture of the east city wall were overwhelmed by the cavalry troops rushing in before they had time to react.
Facts have proved that the orc troops are completely unable to resist cavalry, especially heavy armored cavalry.
More than 5,000 cavalry were able to overwhelm 50,000 orc troops with a single charge!
The sturdy cavalry directly scattered the orc troops, and then harvested the orcs skillfully. The lack of skills to deal with the cavalry made it impossible for the orcs to face the charge of the cavalry.
Ma Chao was even more brave. He led more than a thousand people to rush to the city, then dismounted and climbed up the east city wall, driving the orcs on the wall back down again!
A series of changes happened in a short period of time. Thor stared blankly at the cavalry troops that seemed to rush down from the sky. They scattered the orc troops like chopping melons and vegetables, and then re-captured the east city wall!
Just when the orcs were igniting their hopes, a bucket of cold water fell from the sky, completely extinguishing their hopes!
Saul couldn't believe this fact. He was a little hysterical and ordered the troops to continue charging. There was no retreat now, both sides were the same.
After Zhang Liao saw that the East City Wall had been retaken, he immediately issued new orders, and transferred part of the defenders of the North City Wall whose pressure had decreased to the East City Wall, and reorganized a new line of defense.
At this point, the Far North Fortress was once again under the complete control of Dragon City.
Ma Chao and the five thousand cavalry led by him all dismounted and climbed onto the city wall. As a new force, they took over the main task of defending the two southeastern city walls. Their joining also brought the battlefield into a stalemate once again.
As time goes by, the balance of victory slowly shifts to the side of the orcs. If reinforcements from Dragon City do not arrive, then the Far North Fortress is likely to be in crisis again.
However, the orcs may be destined to suffer here.
Still in the east, when the main force of the 1st Cavalry Division came into sight of both sides, Saul knew that they had failed.
After entering the battlefield, thirty-five thousand cavalry launched a charge.
From the east wall to the north wall, almost all the orc troops were crushed by the wind-like cavalry troops.
After the charge of the 1st Cavalry Division, the fighting on the eastern and northern fronts quickly ended. The orcs could no longer attack, and the entire front was completely cut off by the cavalry troops.
Zhang Liao, who finally took a breather, and the remnants of the Second Army in the Far North Fortress, both collapsed from exhaustion.
After a day and night of fierce fighting, no one had the strength to hold on. The belief that had always supported them was completely abandoned after the reinforcements arrived.
The battle on the southern front of the Far North Fortress ended with the automatic retreat of the orcs. After the arrival of the 1st Cavalry Division, the orcs gave up continuing the attack and instead gathered far north of the Far North Fortress.
It was impossible for the 1st Cavalry Division to rush to attack the main force of the Orcs again, so the 1st Cavalry Division entered the Far North Fortress and dismounted to take over the defensive task of the Second Army.
So far, the total losses of the first stage of the orc attack exceeded 20,000, of which ten thousand orc warriors were lost on the northern city wall alone. After being attacked by the Dragon City First Cavalry Division at the last moment, less than 10,000 orcs were left as the main force.
Twenty thousand people.
As for Dragon City, the main force of the Second Army of the Far North Fortress was more than 46,000 people. After this battle, there were only less than 20,000 people left, and almost everyone was injured!
Just a few officers at the school level were killed! One hundred officers at the lieutenant level!
The 1st Cavalry Division, which rushed to the rescue, suffered heavy losses. After running continuously, it immediately entered the battlefield, causing many war horses to die due to excessive use. The cavalry itself also suffered nearly 600 deaths.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the other two planned armies, the First Army and the Tenth Army, finally arrived on the battlefield. This also meant that the balance of forces in the Far North Fortress had changed at this moment, and the numerical advantage occupied by the orcs was already minimal.
The 50th Army, which was the second to arrive on the battlefield, took over the task of the remnants of the Second Army, and the First Army, which arrived later, was stationed not far from the Far North Fortress, forming an angle with the Far North Fortress to contain the orc army.
Subsequently, the battle report about the Far North Fortress was immediately rushed to Dragon City. There were huge changes in the pre-prepared plan, and Dragon City must be informed of it as soon as possible.
In Dragon City, Zhou Yunfei's heart skipped a beat when he saw Pang Tong and several other senior officers from the staff coming in hastily.
"Shi Yuan, what's going on at the Far North Fortress?" Zhou Yunfei asked directly without waiting for Pang Tong to speak.
Pang Tong's face darkened, "Lord, the situation in the Far North Fortress is very bad."
Zhou Yunfei suddenly stood up, stared at Pang Yi and said word by word: "I want to know everything!"
"My Lord, the Far North Fortress is not in danger for the time being. The First Army and the Fifty Army have arrived on the battlefield in advance. The Fifty Army has taken over the defense line of the Second Army, while the First Army is stationed east of the Far North Fortress."
Pang Tong first gave a brief summary of the situation in the Far North Fortress at the moment, and then he said a little sadly: "My lord, the losses of the Second Army in this battle were very heavy, exceeding 60%."
"What!" Zhou Yunfei's eyes widened, as if he heard a joke and couldn't believe it. What kind of army is the second army? It is one of the best ace armies in Dragon City, and now its battle damage rate has reached 60%! Use
You can even tell with your toes how bad the fighting situation is.
"Asshole! What do you do for the staff?" Zhou Yunfei was furious. The ominous premonition in his heart for many days came true, and Zhou Yunfei's anxiety found an outlet. He scolded Pang Tong and several of his staff mercilessly.
.
"Kill all those orcs, leaving no one alive! I want them to be buried with the dead soldiers!" Zhou Yunfei said coldly at the end. He felt that his heart was bleeding for the sudden loss of so many elite troops.
