The dark moon and the strong wind were the best description of this night. The shadows of the 60,000 knights were hidden by the dark curtain.
The cloth under the hooves controlled the sound of the troops. As they approached, the leader of the army, the Holy Knight Dongfang Yin, felt his heart tighten. Victory and defeat depended on this one move.
The dark night and their overconfidence made the orcs relax their vigilance.
When a powerful cavalry force that could decide their lives was less than a mile away from the town, these orcs were still sleeping soundly, not sensing the arrival of danger.
"For the Tyrone Empire, for our comrades who died at the hands of the Beastmen, advance…!”
Under Dongfang Yin's command, the elite cavalry who had endured for a long time broke the silence of the night, raising their shining spears and waving them.
The torch in his hand rushed towards the sleeping beastmen.
When the sentries on night duty discovered the cavalry, they had no time to make any defensive preparations.
The unparalleled speed and powerful impact of the cavalrymen were quickly displayed.
The bear infantrymen who were alerted by the screams picked up their weapons in a panic and looked for the enemy's figure at a loss.
However, without a formation to rely on, although the bear infantrymen had strength that humans could not compare to, there was clearly no room for them to display their strength.
The heavily armored human cavalrymen, who were lined up in a neat formation and launched a group charge, stabbed their spears at the enemies who tried to resist again and again. Blood soon dyed their white knight armor red.
More bear infantrymen were surrounded by the sudden flames in their sleep. One by one, the barracks were set on fire, and the beastmen wanted to rush out of the barracks to face the flames.
They became the best targets for the Bow Knights. Sharp arrows whizzed out, bringing with them the anger of the knights. They landed on the bodies of these fire men, bringing with them streams of blood.
This was no longer a war, but a one-sided massacre.
Many Bear Tribe warriors had lost their lives for no reason. At the moment they fell, they still did not understand why a large cavalry force would appear in this place.
The battle ended very quickly. Other than a few high-ranking Bear Tribe commanders who fled in the chaos, the 50,000 infantrymen left behind more than 43,000 corpses in the darkness.
The knights had suffered close to 10,000 casualties in the face of the bear soldiers 'desperate resistance. Even Dongfang Yin, who was leading the army, was surprised by the Orcs' will to fight.
If the same operation were to befall the 100,000 human infantrymen, they would definitely be able to wipe out all of them, and their casualties would be less than 2,000.
However, compared to the huge battle results they had achieved, these casualties were insignificant. Destroying 50,000 bear infantrymen was insignificant to the Orc King who had millions of soldiers.
But the grain piled up here was the lifeblood of the Beastmen.
Looking at the mountain of grain that was ignited and emitting a sky-high flame, Dongfang Yin revealed a knowing smile. This time, he succeeded. When he returned, he might be able to use this huge achievement to advance further.
There was a possibility of him becoming the Eastern Army Corps 'Deputy Army Commander!
After completing their mission, the tens of thousands of cavalrymen didn't stay for long. After all, the main force of the Orc army wasn't far from here. If they rushed forward, they would only need half a day to arrive. By then, it would be dangerous.
Dongfang Yin led his troops to another location according to the plan. There was no new mission waiting for him.
……
The flames of the entire town dyed the dark night sky red. Orc King Ryan stared at the place where the fire started.
A hint of panic appeared on his dignified face because he knew what the fire meant. It was a fatal blow to him.
Faced with such a situation, he made the decision to retreat.
After leaving behind nearly 200,000 corpses at the base of the Ao Long Fortress, the nearly one million troops retreated towards the direction of the sunrise City. Only there would they be able to obtain supplies.
Clayon's decision to retreat was not carried out well. It was not easy to retreat such a large number of troops all of a sudden.
Originally, Clayon had expected an orderly retreat, but because of the panic caused by the flames, it became chaotic. All kinds of equipment were thrown everywhere, and everyone only picked up weapons that could protect themselves and set off.
The opportunity that Dongfang Yun had been waiting for a long time finally appeared. The moment the fire lit up, Dongfang Yun had already started to gather his troops.
The cavalry unit that had not been used for the past few days was already fully prepared and ready to go.
The Eastern Army Corps had the 3rd and 4th Cavalry Corps under their command, which consisted of 80,000 cavalrymen from the Dream Dance Dukedom, Wild Waves Dukedom, and the Alliance of Free Cities.
And the 12,000 heavy armored cavalrymen of the 13th division of the Royal Dragon Knights, known as the strongest knight regiment
Together, they formed a long stream of steel.
An hour after the Beastmen started to retreat, the interior of the Ao Long Castle lit up. It was the 9,000 magic casters who had recovered their magic power and were giving our cavalry all sorts of buffs.
The troops that were illuminated by the magic light had their attack power, defense power, and mobility greatly increased.
The east gate of the Ao Long Castle suddenly opened, and the suspension bridge was lowered. The super heavy armored cavalrymen of the Imperial Dragon Knight Regiment, as the vanguard of the entire army, swarmed out.
Behind him, 200,000 cavalrymen followed closely behind.
I've been watching the battlefield for a long time and I've seen this situation
Thinking that it was finally time for me to perform, I pointed my spear forward and led my 2,000 brothers on their horses.
After casting my own super speed magic on my team, our team's speed is invincible.
Even the light-armored cavalrymen who always boasted of their speed had fallen behind us.
Soon, we surpassed the 1st Battalion of the 13th Regiment of the Royal Dragon Knights and became the vanguard of this attack echelon.
As for the Eastern Army Corps 'regimental commander, Dongfang Yun, he was leading his two cavalry troops to advance on the path we had opened up. At this moment, his heart was filled with the desire for victory.
These few days, his troops had been suffering losses. These were the soldiers he had personally trained.
When familiar faces fell in front of him one after another, and strong bodies gradually turned cold in front of him, one could imagine the pain in his heart.
At this time, he would lead these 200,000 people to become avengers and send those damned low-level Beastmen to hell.
As long as one was not a saint, they would be influenced by their own emotions.
How many true Saints were there in this world?
Although Dongfang Yun was an outstanding general, he was clearly not a saint.
At this moment, he was affected by hatred. Although this emotion could increase his combat strength to a certain extent, it affected his judgment of the battlefield situation to a greater extent.
For a commander who was deeply concerned about hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the battlefield, calm judgment was obviously more important than individual combat effectiveness.
Indeed, if nothing unexpected happened, Dongfang Yun's strategy was not wrong.
In the history of the war between humans and magical beasts, the magical beasts, a race that was not very smart, had never had a brilliant strategy.
They only relied on their powerful bodies.
Under Dongfang Yun's strategy, the orcs had fallen into chaos, and the troops that had fallen into chaos had no combat strength to speak of. The current attack could completely defeat the orcs in one fell swoop.
Even if they had millions of people.
However, the battlefield was often the place with the most accidents.
And an accident often had unexpected results.
What would happen in this war?
What would I get?
Let this merciless battlefield test everything.
Anyway!
No matter what accident it was!
I will shatter them one by one!
