"This group of useless waste!"

The annoyed curse of the Governor Racole was quickly submerged by the noise on the battlefield. He angrily shook the whip in his hand. The sound of the whip made the turbulent front line temporarily stabilize. But this could not stop the fact that he was constantly disappointed: the beastmen soldiers under his command had failed to attack the city wall for the fifth time, and some soldiers who were trying to escape were whipped down by him on the spot...

The long whip with a metal whip tail over seven meters is very powerful, and it is comparable to a sword when you twitch it casually. Several unlucky deserters were screaming in pain by the spot, but this still cannot stop the negative situation at present!

He doesn't want to give up!

With the logistics and supplies troops, Governor Rakol was blocking nearly 4,000 orcs outside the fortress. However, facing the turtle-like wall, the orcs had nowhere to start for two consecutive days. They could only pile up more and more corpses under the wall, and watched the morale continue to decline...

Orcs on the grassland never built any fortresses or castles. Their combat level was therefore greatly limited: there was no problem with plain charges and close combat, but climbing the fortress walls and forcing the boulders and rushing upwards against the huge rocks and hot oil falling above their heads was something the orcs had never done before.

Therefore, even though the fortress wall in front of him is only seven meters high, it still becomes a "natural barrier" in the eyes of orcs.

"Do you just go back like this? That guy Zoro will definitely look down on me..."

Rakol believed that he had a large number of soldiers, so he was the most powerful among the remaining governors. He listened to Zoro's orders on the surface, but he always commanded the specific battles and ignored Zoro's suggestions at all. However, the current situation gave him a headache.

If this attack fails, his leadership prestige will definitely drop sharply, which is definitely not something a supervisor who is in love with power is willing to see.

Just as Racole was worried about the siege, a messenger who rushed from the main force rushed to Racole and sent Zoro's oral message - although the orcs had written words, they accounted for more than 90% of the illiterate ones, so most of the orders were completed by oral statements.

Lacol frowned after hearing So*'s order, but at the moment he had no room for refusal. Finally, after thinking for a while, he decided to follow the order of the chief: "Retreat! Let's change places before dark!"

The so-called governor actually didn't know much military order. Rakol was the primitive method of catching up and down in the tribe in his usual command. However, his subordinates were relieved because they had long been looking forward to the order to retreat. They retreated from the city wall as quickly as possible, and then gathered the team and marched in the direction indicated by Rakol.

After one day, a team of more than 3,500 people surrounded another fortress, a fortress separated by 40 kilometers. This fortress, Racole had never noticed it before. At this moment, it seemed that the city wall in front of him was much shorter than the previous one, and the humans defending on it seemed not as dense as before.

Obviously, this is a small fortress with weak defense.

This time, Racole was not in a hurry to attack, because after a team of orcs gathered back from the main force arrived, they began to log and collect wood nearby, creating a "ladder" on the spot!

If the orcs are stupid, they can't be really mentally retarded. In the previous battles, they would also create simple wooden ladders to assist in the attack. However, because they lack the experience of manufacturing siege equipment, successive failures are naturally inevitable. But now the team quickly created six or seven simple folding ladders - the orcs don't know how to make wheels, so they simply push dozens of orcs with brute force to push them under the city wall. Although their behavior seemed ridiculous, the subsequent siege immediately put the fortress in danger...

Because this is the first time that orcs can stand on the wall of a human fortress!

If the knights who defended the city were not very skilled, I am afraid that the orcs would be able to capture the fortress with the third impact.

The war was ignited, and the fortress, which was in critical situation, immediately sought support from nearby friendly forces. The eight nearby Iversa Knights immediately ordered their troops out of the city to help. The battle to defend the city over the past few days made these knights abandon their initial fear of orcs. At this moment, what they thought about was no longer the power and barbarity of orcs, but they were full of yearning for making achievements.

The cavalry unit with a total of about 100 people and the infantry sequence of 700 people soon arrived in front of the fortress that was fighting. Governor Rakol was naturally ready to fight, so Ying led the wolf cavalry to rush over to the battlefield. With one encounter, he killed the Everta Knights to pieces!

Orcs do not have the principle of "the head coach will not go to the battlefield". They only recognize the strong and not the others. Rakol can control tribes of ten thousand people, and his strength is not something that ordinary knights can stop...

"Hahahahaha, kill them all! No one can be let go!"

Racole was in an extremely happy mood. These human cavalry in front of him, which seemed well-equipped, were much easier to deal with than the difficult fortress. For the orcs who were best at land warfare, they would rather hedge against these human cavalry every day than climb the cloud ladder to attack the city - but three rounds and three Everta Knights were killed by Racole's battle axe!

The morale of the troops who came to rush for assistance suddenly collapsed, and the knights in the fortress who had originally wanted to send troops to reinforce him were extinguished from the city to attack... They watched the orc troops rush back and forth to nearly a thousand reinforcements like harvesting wheat, but there was no way.

The "militia" who had never experienced wars performed extremely poorly, and they could even be described as abandoning armor and storming their soldiers with their heads and running away. It is common for three or five people to be driven away by an orc to run away, but later they simply slaughtered one-sidedly.

Racole vented his resentment for several days, but weakened the intensity of the siege by responding to reinforcements. At this moment, another team of more than 300 cavalry roared and cut into Racole's team from the side!

Due to the continuous melee, there was no organization or formation on the battlefield, so this cavalry team holding the Wellington Knights' flag immediately caused a large number of casualties. Seeing this, Rakol immediately led the guards to rush forward, but the leading Wellington Knights did not want to fight at all. After leading their troops to kill orcs outside the city wall, they decisively covered the team and the remaining troops into the fortress.

The cavalry power brought by Wellington is far stronger than the defeated knights before. Racole couldn't afford to organize the team in a hurry, so he could only watch the fortress replenish nearly 300 elite veterans.

After another day of hard attack, Racole finally gave up the attack and transferred the target with his remaining troops and the few remaining supplies.

This battle caused Iversta to have suffered large-scale casualties for the first time, with more than 600 deaths. If Wellington had not been for the timely assistance, even thousands of people in the fortress would have been slaughtered - although the result was pretty good, this was not a good signal for the Knights of Titus and Sally who were in the city of Hollier.

"The orcs suddenly became smart..."

Titus looked at the movements of the orcs on the sand table and made such a judgment.

And he didn't know that this was exactly what Zoro took after receiving a mysterious letter.

As the chief, Zoro certainly knew what this letter meant. But the enemy suddenly sent a letter containing territory information and drawings for siege ladders, and he was more willing to believe it was a trap.

But it is not a trap, and you have to step on it to know. Therefore, Zoro asked Racole, the most powerful general under his command, to test it. If it is a trap, it can consume more Racole's troops... But he did not expect that if Racole had not had enough experience in siege, he would almost directly capture a fortress!

Even if he failed to conquer the final result, the record of killing hundreds of humans was solid, and the morale within the entire tribe was revived. Zoro was so excited, but looking at the stack of letter paper in his hand, he thought more:

Among humans, who is fighting Roddy?

What purpose do these people have to send this letter to themselves?

His eyes were on the southeast side of the Iversa territory in the letter... Obviously, the answer was not difficult to guess for Zoro.

*******

"Is the orc camp there?"

Melinthella's voice was clear and calm in the darkness.

"Well, the main force of the orcs is there. Speaking of which, I have an old friend who should be there too."

Roddy turned his head and looked at the orc camp with bonfires that were not far from the North Cohen Fortress. Looking around, the camp was planned quite neatly, exactly the same as some camping methods in King Karen. Such management ability is obviously not something that ordinary orcs can do.

"Old friend?"

"I've fought several times, and now he should be the chief of the entire orc army."

After nightfall, Roddy and his party had left the area where Elsen City was located, but did not go directly north into the Gondora Mountains, but headed along the edge of the Nehemiah prairie toward the east side of the mountain. Because the terrain was high, when looking at the border fortress in the distance from here, you could clearly see the movements of the orc army.

However, he did not think that the orcs could do anything to Iversa, so he was too lazy to think about what Zoro was doing. The team was moving in the dark very fast, which was naturally due to the various barriers and gain spells used by the accompanying mages - the load of the barbarian soldiers was almost zero due to the long-term application of "floating technique". At the same time, they did not need to worry about vision issues, and they walked along the way even faster than ordinary troops during the day.

After two days and two nights of marching, Roddy bypassed Tasman's inherent defense line in the Gondola Mountains and the fortress radiation reconnaissance area. Following the path Houdini confirmed through "prophecy", he unconsciously crossed a low and hidden valley in the Gondola Mountains one night.
