Chapter 371 The Battle of Crossing the River (Part 1) (Fourth)

In the early spring in the north, the weather is very cold, especially in the morning, the spring is very cold and extremely cold.

At this time, the biggest enjoyment is to sleep in the warm bed.

However, the orc warriors stationed on the south bank of the Tao’er River were destined to lose this blessing, because the enemy killed them just after the dawn.

Although Ning Yuan is confident, he is not blindly arrogant.

Although he was confident of defeating the resistance in front of him, he did not dare to follow the enemy’s rhythm. After all, the two orc legions behind him and to the southwest were nothing to display, so he had to break through this pocket array before the enemy could seal his mouth.

Although the orc army on the south bank of the Taoer River has a pocket array, it is impossible to defend all of the hundreds of kilometers of the river bank. Therefore, they only deployed troops in some places suitable for crossing the river to monitor the entire river bank. Up.

The advantage of this arrangement is that no matter where Ning Yuan’s army chooses to break through, it will be blocked by the orc army.

The disadvantage is that their strength is somewhat scattered. If they can’t hold on to the arrival of reinforcements, they can only watch Ning Yuan go away.

In order to be able to persist until the arrival of reinforcements, the Second Infantry Regiment deployed heavy troops at several important ferry crossings, and then set up several werewolf rapid reaction corps specifically to support the battlefield.

If Ning Yuan wants to successfully break through, the key point of this battle is that he must rush to the front of the orc mixed army behind him to defeat the blockers, otherwise he will fall into a disadvantageous situation of being defeated by the enemy.

Ning Yuan’s army and the orc mixed army always kept a day’s distance. If the opponent rushes with all their strength, then it will only take half a day for their forward army to reach the battlefield, so the real time left for Ning Yuan’s army is only half a day.

In order to gain precious time, Ning Yuan started letting the soldiers light a fire and cook food at around four o’clock in the morning.

After eating breakfast, the army immediately divided into three groups and began to rush towards their respective goals.

In this battle of crossing the river, Ning Yuan chose three ferry ports that were relatively close together as his target.

Although the enemy has deployed heavy troops at these three ferry crossings, once the three places go to war at the same time, it may be difficult for the enemy’s reinforcements to arrive in a short time.

And because the three ferry crossings are next to each other, after the enemy’s reinforcements arrive, they can only give priority to supporting the ferry crossings on both sides, and the middle one will be left alone and helpless for a long time.

In this way, Ning Yuan had enough time to defeat the orc army guarding here. His trick was to use space in exchange for time, and he learned it from Jun Moxie.

The Orcs’ Second Infantry Corps deployed a total of 60,000 troops at these three ferry crossings, with 20,000 people at each ferry crossing.

Among them, there are 3,000 wild boar warriors and bear warriors, 5,000 leopard warriors, and 12,000 werewolf warriors.

And every army on the Ningyuan side should have more than 20,000 men, 10,000 barbarian fighters, and 12,000 elven archers.

Ning Yuan himself led the team to attack the ferry in the middle, Philip The Underworld roaring led the team to attack the ferry on the left, and LeBron The Underworld roaring led the team to attack the ferry on the right.

Because the enemy’s werewolf scouts were constantly monitoring the movements of Ning Yuan’s army, their every move was seen by the enemy.

By the time Ning Yuan’s army arrived, the orcs had already lined up their battle formations and were waiting for them.

“The archers scatter freely.”

The orcs understood the actions of Ning Yuan’s army, and Ning Yuan had known the orc army a long time ago.

This is a pure orc infantry corps, lacking the means of long-range attack.

Because their main enemy is the barbarian tribe on the other side of the river, they are the main defender, and the two sides mainly fight in hand-to-hand combat, so the influence of long-range attack methods on defense is not very important.

To deal with this kind of orc army without long-range attack means, as long as there is enough space, the elf archers can completely kite the opponent to death.

It is a pity that Ning Yuan is the main attacker this time, so the elven archers can’t display their full strength.

Although the orcs had already prepared a large number of wooden shields and planks, facing the elf archers who were good at archery, many unlucky ones were shot in the body.

After several waves of shooting by the elven archers, although many orc warriors fell down, the formation of the orcs was not chaotic. They still held their positions. Here it is.

“The archer retreats.”

Seeing that the orc army that was good at offensive was as solid as a rock, Ning Yuan immediately stopped the shooting of the elf archers.

The most powerful weapon of the elven archers is the bows and arrows in their hands, so he dare not let them waste all their precious arrows.

After the logistical supplies are gone, the elven archers have been living tightly. Every time they shoot an arrow, they must do their best to recover them, otherwise they will run out of ammunition and food, so good steel must be Used on the blade.

“Andrew, kill me.”

After Ning Yuan stopped the shooting of the elven archers, he immediately ordered the barbarian army to start a frontal attack.



Andrew: “Kill.”

Barbarian Legion: “Kill.”

After receiving the order, Andrew The Underworld roar immediately led the barbarian warriors to rush up.

Looking at the barbarians who started the charge, the orc army finally couldn’t help it anymore. They threw away the wooden shields in their hands and greeted them.

After these orc warriors fought against the barbarians on the other side of the river, they knew that they would never lose to the opponent in aura, nor could they let the opponent’s speed rush, otherwise they would fall into a complete passivity.

Although the truth is such a truth, it is a pity that the barbarian army they encountered is different from the one on the other side of the river.

Empiricism killed people, and soon the orc army paid a huge price for its own experience.

“Throw.”

Seeing that the distance between the two armies was getting closer and closer, Andrew suddenly shouted, and then some barbarian soldiers holding javelins threw their javelins vigorously.

Ning Yuan equipped the barbarians with five sharp javelins, a giant axe, and a shield.

Although many javelins were lost in previous battles, on average, two javelins were left in the hands of each barbarian warrior.

When Andrew led the barbarians to charge, only the barbarians in the front row were holding giant axes, and those in the back were holding javelins.

The commander of the orc legion mistakenly thought that the enemy was going to fight them hand-to-hand, so the cunning Andrew gave him a hand.

With the javelin rain from the barbarian warriors, a large number of orc warriors were nailed to the ground, and the orc forward army was immediately plunged into chaos.

At this time, the barbarians led by Andrew had already rushed over, and they followed the gap opened by the javelin rain and slammed directly in.

“The archers charge and shoot in coverage.”

Seeing that the barbarian legion had the upper hand, Ning Yuan immediately ordered the elven archers to dispatch again.

More than 10,000 elven archers arrived on the battlefield in an instant. They did not care about the orcs who were entangled with the barbarian warriors, but shot the arrows at the werewolf warriors in the rear of the orc army.
