Chapter 595

After about an hour of fierce fighting, the human warships finally collapsed in this predicament. One by one, the warships were sunk, and countless sailors jumped into the water. At this time, they did not take the initiative to meet the enemy. Seeing the crisis, they had to jump off the ship to survive. For a moment, the river was full of people, The sailors struggled to swim towards the river bank in an attempt to escape.

However, in this chaos, the hippopotamus orcs wantonly hunt and kill human sailors. Some of them are devoured and bitten by the hippopotamus orcs in the water, some are injured and drowned, and some of them are in a panic, but they forget to identify the direction, and swim to the north bank! As soon as they got ashore, they fell into the hands of the orcs who had been waiting for the wolf cavalry on the shore.

General domingues on the shore looked pale, and he roared and screamed, but he had nothing to do with the situation on the water.

The whole river was covered with broken ship plates and dead bodies. The whole river nearby was dyed red by blood!

On the surface of the water, the soldiers screamed bitterly, and the human soldiers on the shore changed color one after another.

Although there are also soldiers on the shore, who are familiar with the nature of water, take the lead in diving into the river and trying to rescue their colleagues, most of these divers have become the prey of Hippo orcs.

On the water, everywhere can see the beast shadow, the hippo orcs in this war out of the limelight!

In this battle, the hippo tribe, originally a small tribe, had less than 8000 members, but this time more than 3000 Hippo orcs were invested. All of a sudden, the water surface of this area will be reduced. It's a hell of a dead zone.

Before evening, the sun was just a little slanting to the west, but the battle over the river had come to an end. Stationed in the eastern fortress, this fleet, eight imperial sea soul class warships, were all sunk!

More than 3000 sailors died. The water was covered with floating corpses. The color of the river had completely turned into a chilling dark red.

At the end of the battle, on the river. The heads of a dense and terrible hippopotamus Orc came out, and thousands of hippopotamus orcs roared wildly on the surface of the water, shouting wantonly at human beings.

The human soldiers on the shore fell into a dead silence. Many soldiers bite their lips and look sad, but watch their colleagues on the water being killed. General domingues clenches his fist and stabs his palm with his fingertips. bloodshed!

In the evening, human beings tried to prevent a counterattack. A large group of 150 airships were mobilized. Under the strict order of Dominguez, they immediately put into battle... But. Waiting for them, but the result is more miserable than the water battle!!

……

……

When the top of the head, an airship flying, once let the morale of the human army! Those airships with the Empire bramble totem. The formation flies toward the north bank, and the bombs hanging under the airship are like eggs, with a faint cold light.

However, above the sky, a large number of dense shadows appeared in the north. From a distance, they looked like a large dense group of birds.

When they fly close, they show their true colors!

A large number of elves came flying. Those elves use their gifted wings to soar in the sky. After approaching the airship, they quickly break into parts and disperse!

One by one, the elves skillfully flew, holding the bow in their hands, and started a clever encirclement and suppression against the airship. All archers of the elves have magic talent. Thousands of elves archers have joined in. Immediately to the human airship forces brought disaster!

In front of smart elves. The airship is bulky and slow. Lack of air-to-air counterattack ability, these weaknesses, all revealed!

One airship after another seems to be trapped in the mire. After being surrounded by dozens of elves, those elves flash around like flies, and arrows with the purple magic light of the elves come out. Although human airships and those leather balloons have been thickened before the war, no matter how thick the leather is, Under the magical bows and arrows of the elves, they are still so fragile

As if the sky is full of sparks, balloons are shot through by magic bows and arrows, which explode under the magic light and turn into a group of fire.

This group of human air forces were all air forces that had received strict training in the northwest. Many people bravely took up bows and arrows to shoot at the elves. But where are the smart elves flying all over the sky so easy to be shot? Even if they hit occasionally, the elves are naturally gifted with magic. These elves are dressed in gorgeous armor, and the hollowed out patterns seem fragile, but they often have some strange magic blessing attribute. Ordinary bows and arrows of human soldiers are difficult to kill effectively.

A large group of airship troops, as if trapped in a sea of clouds, one airship after another was soon engulfed, above the sky, some airships in the balloon explosion, turned into a fire, some balloons were punctured, fell from the sky.

Less than one third of the airships dropped the bomb in a hurry. Unfortunately, this kind of hasty bombing is not worth mentioning. It hardly causes much effective damage to the orcs on the ground.

Compared with the battle on the water, the battle in the sky is even worse for mankind!

One hundred and fifty airships are totally destroyed. No airship can fly back!!

More than a thousand air force soldiers were killed in the battle. Most of them died miserably under the sharp bows and arrows of the elves. The other half turned into flames in the air with the explosion of the airship. The rest fell from the sky in despair. Some of them fell from the air. Even if they miraculously fell on trees and were injured for a while, they were soon captured by the orc wolf cavalry on the North Coast

When the sun goes down, on the battlefield. Has fallen into a silence!

The fleet of human land was destroyed on the river, and the airship troops in the air were destroyed.

Looking at this scene, general domingues, the commander-in-chief of the eastern fortress, turned pale. Finally he shook his body, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then he fell from his horse. The soldiers around him quickly went up and hugged him.

At this time, the orcs on the north bank. It's time to cross the river!

On the river, the orcs of the hippopotamus became the vanguard of building floating bridges. These huge and terrifying hippopotamus, even without much effort, can directly fall into the water with wood, and then use their natural water. Quickly in the river set up a bridge pier.

Humans on the south bank are still fighting back, archers continue to shoot, and catapults are roaring. But after solving the human airship troops, the dense elves flying in the sky immediately rushed to the human troops on the ground on the south bank!!

These flying spirits come and go like the wind. With an accurate and tricky arrow, wantonly plundering the lives of human soldiers.

In the face of the enemy in the sky, the human army finally experienced the terror of the "air force" personally!

Above the river, the orc's floating bridge is built faster and faster. In the role of the hippos, soon a piece of wood was put up, one by one pier standing on the water.

The human army will fight to the death. On the one hand, the archers have to deal with the elves attacking in the air, and on the other hand, they have to shoot at the river to the shore. The infantry raised their shields and formed a square array to resist the flying elf arrows.

From time to time, arrows came through the cracks of the shield, and soldiers screamed bitterly.

Catapults and catapults for humans on shore. As the catapults were destroyed one by one, some of the human soldiers, in order to protect the catapult, lay on the catapult and used their bodies as shields. Some of them were directly penetrated by the long arrow of the spirit and nailed to the catapult frame!

Despite the difficulties. Orcs still pay a considerable price in the process of crossing the river. In the process of building the floating bridge, the water battle just now showed its ferocity, and the hippos finally came out of the water. They have been severely damaged by human archers. If they are not hidden underwater, then their huge bodies are the best targets for archers.

Those huge hippos often have dozens or even hundreds of arrows on their bodies, covered with blood, struggling and roaring in the water

When the night fell, the pontoon was finally built. When the pontoon extended to the south bank, the human infantry immediately ignored the rain of fairy arrows, rushed to the river bank crazily, and even swam towards the hippos in the water.

On the shoal, the river only reached the waist of a man. The soldiers tried their best, holding shields to resist the rain of arrows, and carrying swords to chop at the hippopotamus.

The fight for the shoal is especially fierce. This shoal has even become a meat grinder! In a short time, a large number of infantry died on the beach, and many soldiers' bodies were still floating on the water. The scene was extremely tragic. The hippos suffered the biggest impact since the war. In the battle of seizing the beach, more than 300 Hippo orcs were killed and injured in this short one hour battle. Facing the huge Hippo orcs, although the human body and size are absolutely inferior, they are swarming like a group of ants, with spears and swords in their hands, Desperate to stab the enemy.

The corpses gradually accumulated, and the river bank almost became a huge corpse yard!

On the shoal, when the first Orc team stepped on the floating bridge built by hippopotamus orcs on the river and finally rushed across the river to the south bank, the bank was almost full of corpses, and there was no place to stay.

Without the warships on the water, the strategy of "half crossing and striking" that mankind had expected before could not be realized on the river. When the orcs cross the river, the only threat they have to face is the human archer's shooting, and the human archer's shooting strength is getting weaker and weaker. After all, the human soldiers have to face the attack from the air.

Team one, team two, team three

In the process of crossing the river, humans launched two deadly counterattacks. For a time, they took back the south bank, but under the counterattack of the hippos, the orcs rebuilt the bridgehead of the south bank. As more and more orcs crossed the river, they formed a thick square formation on the south bank, and resisted the human's attempt to counterattack.

Finally, when the moon rose into the sky and the stars began to appear in the sky, the morale of human beings increased. Finally, the inevitable weak down.

After fighting from the evening to the middle of the night, three infantry regiments were destroyed, and two infantry regiments were crippled. On the shoal of the south bank, the dead human soldiers, ORC soldiers and the bodies of hippos fell together. Some of them still keep fighting posture after death.

The orcs finally got a firm foothold on the shoal of the south bank. One by one, they split tightly and guarded the formation. There were more and more Orc troops behind them. Stride forward from the pontoon and head for the south bank!

General Dominguez had already sent up two more regiment reserves from the city, but seeing that the situation was over, he knew in his heart: the river line. Already lost!

In fact, since the human fleet was sunk on the river bank, this fact can not be changed!

Without warships, human beings have lost their advantage in water, so it is difficult for this river to provide much protection for human defense. In this way, even if we can stop the orcs from crossing the river today, tomorrow will be better. The day after tomorrow... Is always unstoppable!

General Dominguez's eyes are red and his mouth is still bloodstained. At this time, even though he is extremely sad and angry, he has to order the army to retreat. While there is still a chance, he must take people back to the fortress. In the future, he can only guard according to the fortress!

If it's delayed any longer, once the orc's troops are more and more rushing across the river. Rectification is completed on the south bank. Well, I'm going to pursue these troops. I'm afraid I don't even have a chance to go back to the city!!

At night, finally, the elves began to retreat first. These terrible races in the air, after some fighting, finally retreated to rest. Because the strategic plan for crossing the river has been completed, there is no need for them to continue to exert pressure on mankind.

And the human commander's orders were issued one by one, even though his heart was full of hatred and anger, the human army had to retreat.

At this time, it seems that human beings are going to give up the fight for the river beach, but the several orcs who have crossed the river are cunningly advancing!

It seems that the orcs have a great appetite. They not only want to occupy the river, but also try to swallow the human army guarding the river!

Dominguez was immediately aware of the crisis. At this time, he had to make a decision: one team had to be left behind, and then the big army would have a chance to retreat back to the city. Otherwise, I'm afraid the whole army will be killed by the enemy! But... I'm afraid it's a near death to leave the army behind. There's no chance of survival!!

At this time, without waiting for Dominguez to issue this difficult order, a general in the forefront of the human army, who had already known the situation of the war, suddenly ordered the flagman to wave the flag, and then raised his long sword and roared. His countless warriors rushed towards the muddy river!

Dominguez was at the back. He saw the flag clearly. The content of the flag was as follows:

Die for the Empire!

The commander-in-chief of the eastern fortress knows the general at the front, who is the commander of the sixth infantry division of the storm corps, major general Fink! This major general is a famous brave general in the storm corps, and also a well-known young faction. He and the son of Lord Rostock, the commander of the storm corps, royantar, have the reputation of "cub lion" in the storm Corps. Royantar is called "cub tiger", and this Fink is called "cub lion"!

The two men are known as the Gemini double heroes among the young generals of the storm corps!

In today's battle, the division under the command of young lion Fink is at the forefront. In the battle of the disabled persons' Federation for river beach, his division has been crippled and suffered heavy losses

At the moment, seeing the flag in front of him, domingues knew that it was the young lion general fink who took the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the empress!

He is... Dying!

At this time, Dominguez had no time to be sad. As a general, he had to take the army back to the city to garrison!

At the first order, the rear army began to retreat in teams, leaving the battlefield. In front of them, Fink, the lion cub, had already used the most arrogant roar to motivate the morale of the disabled soldiers, and directed the few soldiers left around him. Team by team, the orc phalanx, which was pressing towards the beach, was on the top!

At this time, no tears! All the tears have been burned into blood.

The last reserve team around him has rushed up. The rear commander of the imperial Division has already stood in the forefront. There are no soldiers in front of him. On the shoal in front of him, his subordinates are dying with their flesh and blood, delaying the orcs who are trying to pursue them there!

Looking around, there were less than 200 Pro guards left.

All the 200 guards are cavalry. Although Fink is the head of the infantry division, as the head of the division, major general of the Empire, all the guards are cavalry, which is his privilege.

There is no time to hesitate now. He grabbed the leader of his own army, his eyes were bloodshot, and gave him the last order:

"You take ten people... To destroy all the catapults and catapults we left behind! Set fire! You can't leave a piece of wood for these enemies! " The captain knew that today was the time of death, but he was not afraid. He agreed with tears in his teeth, and immediately led ten people off to fight with torches. Fink, the lion cub, looked behind him. Under the leadership of Dominguez, the troops had left the battlefield and retreated to the fortress. He was relieved. General Fink's young face is full of perseverance. He knows that he is doomed today. Hum, that royantar, I'm afraid he won't be able to fight with him in the future! Hateful, up to now, has not been able to distinguish a high and low with him! Young double heroes? Hum! Royantar, I'm better than you! Braver than you!! Brush! The saber was pulled out by him and raised high. Fink yelled at the less than 200 guards around him: "brothers! Today is our time to die! Even if we are all dead, there is no shame in the flag of the Sixth Division! There is only glory!! You are not afraid of death! " The cry of 200 people is just like the momentum of tens of thousands of masters: "not afraid!"“ Good! Follow me The young general, laughing twice, raised his sabre, kicked his spurs, and galloped towards the beach. Behind him, 200 Pro guard cavalry did not hesitate to keep up. No one hesitated half a point!! In this battle, the banks of the eastern front of the imperial Kaspersky defense line were all lost, the fleet and airship troops of the eastern fortress were completely destroyed, 1000 air force and 3000 sailors were killed, and the infantry soldiers of a division were martyred! Fenk, the lion cub, became the highest ranking general who had been killed in the Imperial War since the beginning of the war. This battle... No one of the sixth infantry division of the imperial storm Corps under his command survived, including the general himself! On the last day of March, the fight lasted until the dawn of April 1! On the battlefield, the last slogan is the last cry of general Fink: follow me!!
