Devil's Law Pit Filling Project

Chapter 44 time

"Are these orcs crazy! They really dare to come out!"

General Rostock looked at the orcs on the other side with a telescope - the telescope was also made by the Tulip Workshop.Tulip Workshop has provided many incredible gadgets to this continent, and everything makes them earn a lot of money.

Although the words sounded relaxed, in fact Rostock did not dare to relax at all.

The orcs really seemed to have lost control. They poured out from the western fortress and attacked the central fortress together from the front.

What humans are most worried about is that criminals use the western fortress as a springboard to enter the empire.But the military department has always believed that any criminal who dares to enter the human territory will never come back.Not to mention the interception of the central fortress, not to mention the counterattack of the Tulip family, just a million local garrison, even if it is grinding!It can grind all the intruders to death bit by bit!

Of course, the same is true if the human army enters the territory of sinners.The vast number of criminals have taken root in the frozen forest and the Kilimaro Mountains, and it is only their army on the front line.In their own internal territory, it is almost said that even the old, weak, women and children can become combat forces!The physical quality of human beings determines that even if they have a population five or six times larger than the sinners, they still cannot drive them back.

But what I never expected was that the criminals would actually want to gnaw down the central fortress!No attack on the interior of the empire!Instead, they went to besiege the fortress from across the river in the middle and from the west.This relieved the local garrison who had already made defensive preparations—neither they nor the overall military department thought about letting these local garrisons charge the criminals on the battlefield. That was not a battle, but suicide. .It is the best way to use the defense of the city wall and fill it with human life as much as possible.Anyway, there are so many more human beings than criminals.

But it wasn't just the local garrison who breathed a sigh of relief, even Rostock breathed a sigh of relief.What he is most afraid of is that the criminals will enter the hinterland of the empire at the risk of annihilation of the entire army.The turmoil that would cause the Empire would be unimaginable.To put it bluntly, it is possible to cut off the supply lines of the frontline fortresses!

After experiencing a real defeat, the human legion, which has not recovered, seems to have been frightened by that terrible magic.Although reason tells humans that the large-scale power that is close to gods should be limited, and Du Wei also told them that it should be impossible for elves to cast such magic again.But the fear that originated from the soul still makes the whole fortress ready for storm.

Orc raids are very fast.

In fact, at the beginning, humans didn't know that the stupid orcs would actually adopt a two-line attack method.When almost all the troops were concentrated at the main gate, using trenches, defensive equipment, and city walls to deal with waves of orc attacks, the hot air balloon scouts suddenly reported that a large number of orc troops also came to the west of the fortress!And it looks like it's at least [-] or more!

Fortunately, when the western fortress was breached, humans had already dug some simple trenches on the west side of the central fortress.These things finally played a little role at the critical moment.But, only a little bit.

At the fortress planning meeting.

"Ask Gabriel! What's going on, the support from the east has not arrived yet! The orcs are almost out now, and the possibility of continuing to attack in the east is very small. Send me a group of scouts! They're going faster!"

"General, over there in Yajin City..."

"What's wrong! Say!"

"Ajin City said that we should prepare for the worst to prevent the orcs from breaking through the defense line of the central fortress, so we only provide the eastern fortress with the supplies needed to dispatch half of the army..."

"These bastards!" Rostock slapped the table angrily, and the explosive vindictiveness almost shattered the table.

But the messenger below finished speaking tremblingly: "And they said that the supplies to our central fortress may also be halved..."

"Stupid! What are the quartermasters in the military headquarters thinking!? Afraid that the other party will break through the central fortress? How can they send fewer troops even if they are afraid of being breached! These guys who are sheltered by the eastern fortress are simply afraid of attacking them! ?” Rostock was like an angry old lion at the moment.

The old imperial admiral did have reason to be so angry.

The sudden attack from both sides by the orcs really made the humans flustered.But the initial defense is still very easy.However, no matter how easy it is, it can't stop the wave after wave of offensives.

These orcs seem desperate!Stepping on the shattered corpses of your companions has to go one step closer to the human city wall!That battle lasted for two full days and one night!For nearly twenty hours!

It has been a long time since there has been a war on the front line, and the last time a war was fought, humans took the initiative to attack.

After more than a year, humans once again felt the deep malice and blood from the orcs!

In fact, this is also impossible.Orcs are multiplying too fast.In the human world, it is very rare to have a pair of twins, and most of them are one child.A woman can only give birth to three or four children in her lifetime.

And the orcs are completely different!For an orc woman, one child is at least two, three or four are very common!Some special races, such as werewolves, have five or six births in one birth!

Moreover, the orcs are encouraged to give birth.It is the nature of orcs to love life!Then an orc family gives birth every two or three years. The physique of the orcs makes them have a very long reproductive period!In the case of sufficient food, the reproduction rate of orcs can almost double every 20 years!What kind of terrible fertility is this?Every year, at least [-] young orcs can go to the battlefield!

On the human side, although the fertility rate is relatively low (that's only relative to the orcs), but the base is large enough, so in the continuous attack of the orcs, they can barely recruit soldiers all the time, maintaining the most basic numerical advantage .

However, since the orcs were driven to the barren land by humans, a large number of people have been eliminated every year.That kind of hatred, cruelty, and blood that has been accumulated for a full 1 years is enough to make all human armies terrified!

Disregard for life, whether it is for oneself or others!

An army that has never faced the orcs in person has no right to laugh at those humans who are terrified in front of the orcs.Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know how terrifying it is!Rostock has been on guard for almost a week now.

July is always the hottest time of the year.

Even in the frozen forest before the climate change, by this time, the temperature will rise to the point where soldiers wearing light armor can feel a bit of spring.

As for now, the summer here is no different from the spring in the imperial capital.So all human beings feel a little heat from the bottom of their hearts!

The orcs finally slowed down their attacks a little bit—humph!It seems that these beast-like things also need to rest!Many soldiers who have shown their bloodiness think so.

This must be thanks to the Air Force.The human air force has shown a great advantage in this defensive battle.Because the human scouts found that in the huge enemy army, there seemed to be no those annoying elves flying around in the sky!So they plucked up their nerve and took off some hot air balloons.

Unexpectedly, the bombing brought huge benefits!Except for some strong archers of the cattle clan who can pose a slight threat to the hot air balloons, the air force has almost no losses!And it made the orcs besieging the city in a hurry.

Amusingly, it wasn't just bombardments from the sky that had the orcs scrambling.There are also those heavy-backed iron bows of the tauren who are not accurate enough to circle a big parabola in the sky, but only a few poor bows and arrows have a little impact on the hot air balloon, and most of the rest are returned to the orcs themselves.Many orcs who were charging were shot to death by their own archers for no reason.

Finally, human beings have regained a little self-confidence.

snort!So what if more orcs come?Do you have an army in the air?Can you breach the walls of the fortress?Can you kill all humans?Stupid beast!

There were even a few young and impulsive major generals—such as Major General Luo Tayaner—who asked to lead the cavalry to rush out to kill for a while!Because the scouts found that there were not only elves in the opponent's army, but also none of those terrible wolf riders!Obviously, Dominez is unwilling to let his people follow the rock and the copper tiger to die.

But only a few people know their own hidden dangers. □□□□...It's almost exhausted!

This is why Rostock was so angry at Yajin City for delaying and reducing the delivery of supplies.Oh shit!We don't have any more here!You still want to keep some for yourself in case the orcs come to you and you are useless! ?ridiculous!A large force of the Imperial Air Force is stationed here at Lao Tzu!Even if you lose half of it!That is also the main force!Don't these people even understand the most basic truths! ?

Rostock roared in his heart.There was probably enough bombs left for the Air Force to bomb two more times.But obviously the orcs wouldn't just attack twice before the supplies arrived.

The distraught Rostock looked at his son's passionate gaze, and felt a little restless in his heart.But after thinking about it, anyway, there are no cavalry on the opposite side, and these cavalry under my own hands have not fought yet—you can’t expect a cavalry to go up to the wall to help defend like infantry—maybe you can disrupt the enemy’s formation and delay their attack time?

There is very little time at the moment, and we are waiting for the reinforcements from Gabriel and the military supplies from Yajin City to arrive as soon as possible.

Rostock took a deep breath.Trying to stabilize my thoughts from anger, and then opened my eyes, and gave Luota Yaner an affirmative answer.

"Go! Let those ghosts have a good taste of the power of the imperial heavy cavalry!"
