Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Dragonscale Fort

It has been five days since Sydney and others left. At this time, the orc warriors who stayed under the Dragonscale Castle knew that they had become the abandoned part even if they were slow to react. Most of them left with the elite from Sydney. Food began to run out that night. Except for a small part of the army commander Devi, the remaining orc soldiers hadn't had a serious meal for five days.

Most of the soldiers were dizzy with hunger, and they were not picky about what to eat. They ate up all the foods that contained protein, such as rats and bugs, and even grass and leaves became their choice for wrapping their stomachs. Gru did a great job. When retreating, he abandoned all the surrounding castles and burned all the supplies. The orcs could hardly find any food within a radius of several hundred miles.

"My lord, the guard battalion has run out of food, and the guard battalion will run out of food starting today."

"Um."

There was almost no expression on Devi's face. The lack of food was expected. They were just an abandoned army. Although he served as the last force to maintain order, the personal guard battalion provided a few days more food, but in general There is only so much food, even if there is preferential treatment, it is time to run out of food by this time.

"And one more thing…"

The officer who was reporting to Devi was hesitant to speak, as if what he was about to report next made him a little hard to say.

"Tell me, there's nothing else I can't say right now."

Devi's mentality at this time is already quite Buddhist. Since he took over the task of staying here for cover, he has put life and death aside, so there is no bad news that he can't hear.

"The bodies of the soldiers we buried in the east of the camp were stolen. The soldiers patrolling this morning found a big pit in the cemetery..."

Even the head of the legion, Devi, who was already ashamed, frowned instinctively after hearing the news.

Although there are many scavenging beasts on this plain, the vivacious ones nearby have almost been eaten by hungry orcs in the past two days. Facing tens of thousands of orcs armed to the teeth, how can any jackals and beasts dare to approach them? In the orc camp, digging graves and looting corpses, only the orc soldiers who were so hungry that their eyes turned green stole the corpses of their own.

Although the orcs are more ferocious than humans, they can be regarded as a civilized race in essence. In the short time since the elven empire fell, the orcs can be said to be a tyrant on this continent, and they also have their own unique characteristics. Unique civilizations are actually races that have broken away from primitive savagery. Generally speaking, there will be no human beings who are enemies of them on their diets, let alone eating their own race.

But it’s different now. When they are extremely hungry, some people can stick to their principles and resolutely refuse to eat anything other than their own recipes. Some people can also break their principles and eat some unconventional food in order to survive. It’s just that after so many days of fighting, humans left few corpses, and almost all of them were on the walls of Dragonscale Fortress. Only the orcs left a large number of corpses outside the city. Some extremely hungry orcs had no choice. Of course.

"Don't worry about it, let them go..."

After a certain amount of resistance instinctively developed, Devi felt a little moved in his heart. If all the corpses left in the past few days were made into meatloaf, maybe he could last for a few more days?

"Yes, my lord!"

Devi's attitude is obviously acquiescing to the behavior of some generals, and he doesn't force it. He can eat what he wants, so that some people can always preserve their physical strength for a period of time to fight against humans.

Corresponding to the orc side is the human army in Dragonscale Fort. Dragonscale Fort was originally a food storage place for orcs. When Mlak and others led the army to seize the city, it was so sudden that the orcs guarding the city did not Before they had time to completely burn the food and supplies in the city, the food reserves prepared by the orcs in Dragonscale Fort were enough for thousands of human defenders to open their stomachs and eat for half a year.

Now the defenders in the city can not only eat three meals a day, but even eat some meat occasionally. Although they are currently surrounded by orcs in the Dragonscale Fort, their lives are much more nourishing than the orcs outside the city. They even sometimes deliberately eat at the top of the city, trying to let the orcs see them eating.

…

…

Just when the eyes of most orcs were already green with hunger, a human army appeared and also appeared around Dragonscale Fort.

Not long after Sean withdrew, Gru led an elite army selected from Dragon Wing City and gradually approached Dragonscale Fort.

Although this legion only has more than 20,000 people, its combat strength is not ordinary. Apart from this legion itself being the main force of the North Route Army, there is also Gelu who gathered most of the knight-level and above masters in the Dragon Wing City garrison. After being used in this legion, the number of knight-level masters in the entire legion has reached an unprecedented 300. Coupled with the part of the system troops brought by Gru, there are at least 600 knight-level players in the 20,000-strong army. master.

"Master Gru, the orc camp is less than twenty miles away from us. The camp is very chaotic, and it seems that there is not much security."

Of course, the orcs are not on guard at this time. An abandoned army does not have enough food, and its mental and physical conditions are in a slump. How can it maintain normal operations? No matter how low-key the army is, the orcs should have discovered it when they approached the twenty-mile range of the orc army. A human army approached, so that after Gru approached with the army, the orcs didn't even react at all.

"Continue to investigate!"

"Command the army and prepare for battle."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Ron!"

"Master Gru!"

"In a while, you will lead the crusaders and fanatics directly into the camp of the orcs, and the four snake demons will be handed over to you to command, and you must destroy all the organizational forces of the orcs."

"Yes, Master Gru!"

Ron, as the first hero to follow Richard, although his basic aptitude is not good, he is also a system hero with a British template. After so many battles, coupled with the investment of various resources, his strength has reached the level of the earth, and he will lead a group of Crusaders can definitely kill three in and three out of a group of chaotic orcs.

...

"Master Legion! There is a human army approaching us again!"

Finally, when the human army approached several miles away, the orcs finally found the approaching human army, and finally a few dedicated soldiers passed the news to Devi's camp.

"It's finally here, earlier than I thought."

When Devi heard the news that the human army was approaching, not only did he not panic, but his clothes looked relieved. He was not afraid of the human army coming to attack, but what was even more fearful was that the human beings would just stand still and starve them to death here. Let them have no chance to die in battle.

However, he didn't know Gru's needs. How could Gru be willing to let them starve to death naturally like this with the experience packs that he had spent so much effort to surround.

"Can the guard battalion still fight?"

"The Guard Battalion is still the sharpest knife in the hands of the Legion Commander!"

"good!"

Devi stopped talking nonsense, and with the help of his soldiers, he put on his battle armor and walked out with his tomahawk from the weapon rack. More than a thousand orc warriors from the guard battalion had already put on neat clothes and stayed outside the tent.

Devi's main tent is almost separated from the soldiers outside. Compared with the chaos in the big camp, the orc warriors around Devi's main tent are still basically in order. After all, these guard camps haven't been hungry for long enough. With a little sense, they can still organize a certain resistance at this time, but when the orc army on the periphery faces Ron and the others as the vanguard, they can't even hold their weapons.

"kill!"

"clang!"

As the vanguard, when Ron led the crusaders and fanatics into the orc camp, he encountered almost no effective resistance, and it was a completely disgraceful massacre.

Under the command of the officers, some orcs barely raised their weapons to resist, but the war in the era of cold weapons requires more physical strength than the era of hot weapons. Weak and weak orcs can't launch any decent attacks at all, while the crusaders can easily block them They attacked limply, harvesting the lives of the orcs.

Except for some orcs who resisted, some orcs were already in a state of numbness, just staring at the human soldiers who came in and slashed wantonly, not even fleeing, as if dying under their swords was a relief.

If Ron were to evaluate the situation of this camp, it would be lifeless. If there were no skeleton soldiers in the camp, Ron would have thought it was a camp controlled by Diya's Necromancer.

"Directly attack the big tent in the center of the orcs, don't make trouble here!"

Ron didn't have much interest in slaughtering some orcs who could hardly resist. After killing a few waves of weakly resisting orcs, he led people directly to attack Dwayne's camp.
