Chapter 646: Chapter 545-hope (3)

Translator: 549690339

The next day, the attacks of the orcs suddenly became more intense. The beast King knew that if the orcs kept attacking slowly, the humans would be suspicious. Therefore, he ordered the orcs to increase their attacks so that they could better cover the movements of the other team.

Sure enough, the Beastman King’s actions immediately attracted everyone’s attention to the iron wall fortress. The humans knew the beastmen very well. They also knew that the beastmen were stronger than the humans in terms of combat power. Moreover, the beastmen didn’t just fight without thinking. They would also Scout the human forces first, especially the beastmen and the Eagle Clan, who were Air Scouts. Their scouting ability was even stronger than the human race.

That was why the church of Light had deployed a large number of troops to the territory of the icksa family, leaving the Versailles family to face the orcs alone. This way, the orcs would know that the icksa family’s territory had a large number of troops, and if they couldn’t find them if they attacked, they would attack the Versailles family with all their might. This was the script that the Church of Light had written for the orcs.

Moreover, the orcs were fully cooperating with them to put on a good show. They launched a crazy attack on the ironwall fortress. The Versailles family suffered a lot of casualties. Of course, the orcs also suffered a lot of casualties. However, this was the characteristic of the orcs ‘attack. They would attack with all their might until they broke through the defensive line.

Very few human troops could withstand the crazy attacks of the orcs. Therefore, human troops would never engage in open combat with the orcs in normal situations, as it would maximize the advantages of the orc cavalrymen.

Although the heavy infantrymen on the continent could deal with the orc cavalrymen, it depended on what kind of orc cavalrymen they were dealing with. If it was an ordinary orc cavalryman, it would be fine. However, they were also helpless when facing the charge of the cavalry of the war clans.

Of course, there were ways to deal with the orcs on the human continent. The orcs usually did not have armor, but the humans had heavy armored Cavalry. When these heavy armored Cavalry charged, they could also cause great damage to the orcs. However, the cost of making these heavy armored Cavalry was too high. Therefore, even the Arkas Empire, which was one of the few powerful countries on the continent, did not have many heavy armored Cavalry.

However, the orcs weren’t good at attacking. There were no cities in their territory, and their battles usually took place on the grasslands. They were usually cavalrymen, so they weren’t very good at attacking cities.

On the other hand, the humans were very good at defending cities. They had always lived in cities, and whenever there was a war, the cities would be the main focus. Therefore, they were very familiar with defending and attacking cities. In the war between humans and orcs, the humans used the cities as support to build defense lines to block the orcs ‘attacks.

People were waiting to see when the orcs would break through the iron wall defense line. The iron wall defense line was very famous on the continent because it had blocked an attack from the orcs before. Now, they wanted to see if the Versailles family could create another miracle.

It had been seven days since the orcs attacked the ironwall fortress. Although it wasn’t a long time, it wasn’t a short time either. The orcs had sent more than one million soldiers to the fortress, while there were less than 100000 soldiers defending the fortress.

However, these 100000 soldiers were all the soldiers that the Versailles family could deploy. Furthermore, all of them were prepared to die, so this battle was extremely intense.

In seven days, the Versailles family lost nearly 50000 soldiers, while the orc Army lost nearly 100000 soldiers. The loss ratio was 1:2, which was rare in the war between the human race and the orc race. The human race was inherently inferior to the orc race, so the human race usually had more losses than the orc race. It was really rare to see the orc race losing more than the human race.

However, only the Versailles family knew that the troops that attacked the ironwall fortress these days weren’t the main force of the orcs. They were all races with good combat power, which was why they suffered such losses. If the orcs had let their main force attack with all their might, they might not have been able to hold on.

Ivan and the others who had dealt with the orcs felt strange. When the orcs attacked in the past, they would send out some of the battle tribe after two to three days. However, it had been seven days and the battle tribe had not shown up. Why was this so?

At this moment, something that shocked the entire continent happened. On the seventh night after the orcs attacked the ironwall fortress, the icksa family territory was suddenly attacked by the combined forces of several major battle clans of the orcs. Although the Church of Light had already stationed a large number of troops in the icksa family territory, they were caught off guard by the orcs. The defense line was broken through in an instant, and the orcs ‘cavalrymen were saved from penetrating through the defense line. They directly defeated the 300000 soldiers stationed in the icksa family territory. Utterly defeated!

This time, the main force of the orc race was attacking the territory of the icksa family. They were the elites of the elites and had rich battle experience. With 100000 troops against 300000 troops, it was a classic battle that could be written in textbooks.

No matter if it was the other human forces or the Church of Light, they did not expect the orcs to do this. The continent was in an uproar. They did not expect that the heavenly orcs ‘desperate attack on the iron wall fortress was actually a cover for this surprise soldier.

Using nearly 100,000 casualties as cover this time was a big price, but it was very cost-effective. This time, they had defeated an Army of 300000, and occupied a large territory of the human race.

Most of the civilians in the vanseer Duchy had left, but the civilians in the ickas ‘territory had not. Because the Army was stationed there, they had collected a lot of resources. Now that these resources had fallen into the hands of the orcs, it had greatly alleviated the food crisis of the orcs.

The people of the church of Light obviously did not expect the orcs to play such a trick on them. They were caught off guard, and their previous plans fell through. Fortunately, they still had room for maneuver. The Church of Light immediately withdrew their troops near the Versailles Duchy and prepared to surround the territory of the icksa family.

However, just as the Church of Light’s Army was mobilized, the orcs attacked the ironwall fortress for a day and a night. Although the Versailles family put up their best resistance, they couldn’t stop the orcs ‘attack. At the last moment, Ivan and the others were taken away by the loyal Warriors of the Versailles family, and the direction they retreated to was Rocky Mountain.

This was Zhao Hai’s plan. After sending ruien and the others to the island of gold, he had asked the primordial Sword Saint to gather a few 8th-tier experts who were absolutely loyal to the Versailles clan. He wanted them to protect the important figures of the Versailles clan when they retreated to Rocky Mountain. As long as they retreated to Rocky Mountain as quickly as possible, they would be able to keep their lives.

With a primordial Sword Saint, Ivan’s words were more effective. The level 8 experts saw that things weren’t going well, so they immediately took Ivan and left. They had already prepared the magic horses, food, and water, and then they ran all the way to Rocky Mountain.

The Versailles clan that had escaped this time numbered less than two hundred people. Most of them were the clan’s sinecures, which meant that they were experts. These two hundred people were practically all experts of the eighth rank.

The beastmen did not chase after them this time. They no longer cared about the 200 people. They were focused on the Army that had just been sent to the icksa family territory and were ready to attack the 100000 people.

The Church of Light did not expect that the orcs would break through the ironwall fortress as soon as they mobilized their troops. Now, the troops sent by the Church of Light were facing the fate of being attacked from both sides by the orcs.

The Church of Light had thought that the orcs ‘Army at the ironwall fortress was just a feint, so they shouldn’t be too powerful. The main attackers should be the 100000 Warriors led by the icksa family. But they didn’t expect that the moment they moved, the orcs in the ironwall fortress would immediately turn from a sniper to a main attacker. They would break through the enemy in one fell swoop and then attack from behind.

He was now passive! Now, the Church of Light was in a passive position. The orcs in the territory of the icksa family were the main fighting force, and with the cooperation of various countries, their numbers had exceeded 100000. Behind them, there were close to a million orcs in the Army. They had sneaked in from the iron wall fortress and killed all of them. This made the Army of the Church of Light very vulnerable.

However, the Church of Light did not give up hope. They thought that there was still a trump card that they had not used, which was the poison they had prepared. Although the ironwall fortress had been breached, the people that the Church of Light had sent to infiltrate the Duchy of Versailles had not been transferred back.

These people had been hiding in the Versailles Duchy. They were waiting for the ironwall fortress to be broken through. As soon as the beastmen Army entered the Versailles Duchy, they would immediately poison them and then deal with them.

In the Church of Light’s opinion, although the changes were a little different from their plan, overall, things were still going in the direction of their plan. The only difference was that the losses suffered by the icksa family were not part of their plan. However, in the Church of Light’s opinion, it was not a big deal. They had lost some supplies placed in the icksa family’s territory, but it might also lower the orc race’s guard, which would make their plan easier to carry out.

The beastmen’s two-way advance had also caused the Church of Light to suffer great losses. However, this was exactly what they needed. He wanted the beastmen to enter the territory of Arkas Empire and then take care of them in one fell swoop within the territory of Arkas Empire, so that they would not have the chance to escape.
