My Empire War Game

Chapter 194 The cloud of war (2)

"Mishion, I remember that the strength of you and the orc tribe is not much different, why did you suddenly lose?" After the group sat down in the living room, Su Lun asked the doubts in his heart.

Mishien smiled bitterly: "We were too careless."

"After defeating the army of orcs, we relaxed our vigilance, and the orcs also shunned us after that defeat, which made our warriors even more proud. Now that I think about it, they did this to paralyze us and expose our flaws. "

"Obviously they succeeded."

"But even if you are paralyzed, you won't be defeated so easily." Su Lun asked strangely.

"Indeed, even if we are careless, we won't lose so much if we fail. After all, we can still run even if we fail."

"It's just that the orcs have long been prepared. The orc shaman used the obscure technique, and the orc army relied on the obscure technique, and then used the cover of night to successfully surround our tribe."

Su Lun nodded. He understood the plan of the orcs. The haze spell is not too difficult. After using it, it can cover a layer of phantom outside the human body. In addition, the night is shrouded in darkness, which is comparable to invisibility. surgery.

It is not easy for the army of tens of thousands of orcs to use invisibility to cover them all. Even a legendary wizard needs to consume a lot of magic power to cast a dozen times.

Although the orc shaman is powerful, it has not broken through the legend. The use of the hazy technique in conjunction with the night barely achieves the effect of the invisibility technique. Moreover, the hazy technique has another effect, and the resulting shadow is easy to make the archer shoot away.

Then, after the centaur was paralyzed and careless, the centaur marched in a hurry overnight and surrounded the centaur tribe. The strength of the centaur lies in the charge of the horse and the heavy cavalry group, losing speed, and being approached by the orcs, the centaur lost all advantages, and the army of the orcs Formed an elite army, the number was only 2,000, and then cooperated with the Orc Warg cavalry to directly break through the defense of the centaur tribe, and the centaur tribe was defeated.

In order to break out of the siege, the centaur tribe paid huge casualties, and some warriors launched a decisive charge against the orc army, and made a way for more centaur women and children with their flesh and blood.

In the end, the centaurs lost more than 3,000 elite soldiers, and some women and children, and in the end, less than 4,000 centaurs managed to escape. And even so, these centaurs were still being chased and harassed by the Orc Warg cavalry.

The centaur tribe, which suffered heavy losses, fled all the way to the vicinity of Zhenbei City, and then stopped. Facing the army of orcs, they were unable to resist it on their own. These centaurs wanted to unite with the humans in Zhenbei City to fight the army of orcs.

The war in the wasteland is very cruel, and once it fails, there will be a crisis of genocide, and the orcs will not give the centaur a chance to rise again.

"Are you going to ally with us?" Su Lun said, looking at the little mare Mishien.

"Yes, Lord Suren, humans and orcs are a feud. We also have a huge hatred with orcs now. We should unite and deal with those orcs together."

"And after the orc tribe defeated our centaurs, their strength is no longer something that either of us can fight alone."

"I don't deny this." Suren nodded and said, "The orcs are indeed our common enemy. We agree to form an alliance with the centaur tribe."

When the centaurs heard that Su Lun was willing to form an alliance, their faces were overjoyed. This news could be said to be the best news they had heard since the defeat that night.

"Your Excellency Suren, we have one more request." Michion hesitated and said.

"What request?"

"We need Zhenbei City to support us with some food supplies, tents, medicines and weapons." The centaurs didn't carry any food at all when they fled that night, and many centaurs didn't even have weapons.

Su Lun held his chin in one hand, "Chris, how much food and tents can our territory provide now?"

"Master, the food in the territory has just been harvested. After deducting the food we need and the new population every month, we can take out 30 tons of food." Kris said, Suren knew that this was only a small part, but Just make a gesture for the centaur to see.

"Immediately arrange for someone to send thirty tons of food to the centaurs." Su Lun said directly.

"clear."

"Thank you for your generosity, Sir Suren, you are our centaur's best friend." Mishien said gratefully.

"This is our support for our allies." Su Lun said with a smile: "It's just that we are also very limited in weapons and equipment, and we can't provide you with too much."

Su Lun's territory is not large, and his current weapons and equipment are barely maintaining his own army. You must know that there are 1,700 soldiers in the territory, and many soldiers are still wearing leather armor. The equipment that can be provided is naturally limited. .

And there is another reason. After all, the two sides are only allies. These centaurs are not harmless to humans and animals. Once they are given too much equipment, what will they do if they turn back and attack themselves? This situation is not impossible. One vote, and then continue to flee to the south, and those orcs will not continue to pursue.

There are not too many rules in the wilderness. Here, we believe in the survival of the fittest and the survival of the fittest. If Zhenbei City still looks like Zhenbei Fort without a tall city wall, then these centaurs are probably not seeking alliances but directly grabbing One vote continued to run.

Thirty tons of grain sounds like a lot, but because there are only potatoes and no other meat supplements, according to the appetite of a centaur, a centaur will consume about two or three kilograms a day, and a horse will eat five to six a day. With kilograms of hay and about two kilograms of feed, the centaur's food intake is even more astonishing.

Thirty tons of food, plus their own hunting, can feed more than 3,000 people from their centaur tribe for half a month. If they want to rely on this food to continue their journey, they can't last for long. Plus the orcs chase, These centaurs are likely to starve to death in the end.

Su Lun is vigilant against any force, even if he is an ally, he will use the greatest malice to figure it out. In this world, conspiracy and killing are happening all the time.

The centaur tribe lacked weapons, but they had bows and arrows. What the centaur lacked was iron armor. In the chaos that night, they had no time to put on the armor, which also led to the lack of heavy cavalry in the centaur tribe. Although the heavy cavalry has many shortcomings such as slow speed, inability to turn, high cost, large loss, etc., it still cannot deny the irreplaceable role of heavy cavalry on the battlefield of cold weapons.

If the centaur tribe has a thousand, no, five hundred heavy cavalry, they can completely cut through the army of the orc tribe on the frontal battlefield.

Sullen gave the centaur tribe three hundred sets of iron-clad leather armor, as well as a collection of javelins and spears. They even sent thirty tons of food to the centaur tribe.

At the same time, Zhenbei City entered a state of wartime alert. All 1,700 soldiers returned to the team, 200 Zhenbei Fort guards were also on standby at any time, 2,000 militia reserves were assembled again, and the blacksmith shop also started to produce armor.

Su Lun intends to distribute iron armor to all soldiers above the elite pikemen. The strength of the elite pikemen is slightly worse than that of the knights. However, after they are equipped with well-equipped iron armor weapons, ordinary orc soldiers are no longer their opponents.

Now, most of the pike soldiers in Zhenbei City have reached this level, and some have reached the strength of the heavy armored pike soldiers (knight-level).

These heavy-armored pikemen are the backbone of the army, so their equipment is the best. The half-body plate armor forged by the blacksmith shop in the territory has been given priority to the heavy-armored pikemen. Equip them.

The barbarians also use half-body plate armor and are issued with double-edged axes and hand axes. These people can only be used to launch counter-charges, or to disrupt the enemy's formation.

The archers are all inlaid with iron and leather armor, longbows, and melee weapons are also issued. Only some of these archers use centaur longbows and elf war bows, and the rest use ordinary birch bows.

The range of the birch bow is one-half shorter than that of the elf war bow and the centaur longbow. Sulun originally planned to replace all the archers with the centaur longbow or the elf war bow, but the oak used in the elf war bow Not yet ready, can only be replaced by birch.

Although the birch bow has a short range and low power, it consumes less energy. Although it is not a big threat to the orc warriors wearing iron armor, those ordinary orc soldiers do not have iron armor, and the birch bow can still pose a threat to them.

Su Lun issued a call for war in Zhenbei City. There are still many mercenaries in Zhenbei City. All of them have been recruited into the army, and the half-elves are also within the scope of the recruitment. Last time, Su Lun promised Grace that only 150 half-elves would be recruited to join the army, but they can continue to recruit when the territory faces great threats, so this time a total of 350 half-elves joined the army. The same drow elves So are they.

In order to deal with the coming army of orcs, Suren can be said to have used all the power of the territory. But even so, apart from the militia, the army in Zhenbei City was only 2,500 people.

All the scouts have been released. Every three hours, there will be scouts reporting the latest developments of the orc army. This time, the orc army has an army of tens of thousands of people, including about 500 elite orc warriors, orc wolves. There were three thousand cavalry and eight thousand other orc warriors. In addition, there are more than 5,000 servants in the orc army.

After the orc army defeated the centaur tribe, a large number of gnolls, goblins, and bear goblins joined the orc army. As for ordinary goblins and kobolds, they were not even qualified to join the army. The only allies in Zhenbei City were less than 4,000 people. centaur.
