Chapter 195

On the third day after leaving, the Centaur appeared by the Baishui River, only about 10 kilometers away from the north town. All the people of the North Town and the Centaur tribe add up, and the population is only more than 10000. This number is about the same as that of the orc army, but most of them are civilians without combat effectiveness.

Sulun also officially declared that the territory entered a period of war. All commercial activities were stopped, cities and ports were closed, and various materials were temporarily recruited. All caravans can choose to leave or stay to help Zhenbei against the enemy.

If you stay, the caravan guards and their mercenaries will be recruited to join the army. Many caravans turn pale when they learn that the orc army is about to attack here. They directly have to leave with the caravan guards and mercenaries. For these people.

Sulun was not embarrassed, but just recorded their caravan. In the future, the chamber of Commerce will not get any preferential treatment when it comes to the north town for trade. Specialties such as white sugar, rum, dragon tiger wine and vodka (made from potatoes) will no longer be open to them.

At the same time, Su Lun also wrote down the caravans who were willing to stay. The guards and mercenaries of these caravans joined the army. Su Lun would give them more preferential treatment. In this crisis, they were willing to stand with Zhenbei City, no matter what their thoughts and goals, but after all, they helped themselves.

Sure enough, as soon as the order was issued, many chambers of Commerce directly packed their bags and left. There were an endless stream of people who left. Of course, in addition to these people, some were willing to work together to let the guards and mercenaries join the army in the north town.

The battle also made sulun see who were friends, who were passers-by, and who were trustworthy at a critical juncture.

A fast horse galloped from the northeast, then crossed the gate and rushed directly to the Lord's castle. The figure turned over and dismounted and hurried to the castle.

There was a rush of footsteps in the corridor, and soon the bodyguard's voice sounded outside the door, "Sir, the investigation team urgently reported."

"Come in."

The bodyguard came in with a drow elf.

"Sir, Captain Aton asked me to come back and report that the orc army has moved to us. Captain Aton is still watching."

"Hard work, how far is the orc army and how many people are there?" Suellen got up and asked.

"When I left, the orc army was still 200 kilometers away from the north city of the town. According to their speed, now it is 180 kilometers away from us at most, with at least 10000 people and 5000 servants. Among them, 1000 wolf cavalry were the vanguard." the drow Spirit said clearly.

"Soldiers are coming to the city!" Su Lun nodded.

The scope of the strategic map now only covers the scope of his territory. Only those orcs can see it when they enter the territory.

"You go down and have a rest." Suellen waved them back, and then said to the bodyguard, "order the army to be ready for war at any time."

"The north town implements military management, and all materials are rationed and distributed!"

"The security forces patrol 24 hours to prevent people from taking the opportunity to make trouble!"

"All square cities are closed and a curfew is imposed. Everyone is not allowed to go in and out without order!"

The attendant next to him shouted, "I see!"

Soon the whole North Town began to operate like a precision instrument.

The battle that is about to begin can be said to be the most difficult one encountered in the north of the town. Tens of thousands of orcs are coming. Su Lun doesn't intend to let them swagger over so easily.

What if the orc army besieges the city and the North Town drags the orc army. At that time, the Centaur will retreat directly, so he is ready to put the battlefield in Baishui River or Hongsha River and rely on the river for defense. The long tested tactic of half crossing and attacking is simple but useful.

As for fighting in a backwater, this tactic is really not something that ordinary people can play. If it is used well, it can naturally stimulate the soldiers' determination to die, and then fight to the death with the other party. However, if it is not used well, it will really become a death, and the afterlife is really not something that ordinary people can play.

Outside the north of town.

Two thousand and five hundred troops from the north city of the town lined up neatly. Suellen stood in front of the team with Chris, Hathaway, Karina boulder and Johnson. Grace and Harrison stayed in the north city of the town.

Aton led the reconnaissance battalion to still monitor the movements of the orc army in the front. The Centaur army also assembled. However, after a disastrous defeat, the Centaur tribe gathered all the people who could occupy. There were only 2000 people, some of them female centaurs.

Two teams of barbarian soldiers stand around. They will be the assault force in the north of the town. They will tear each other's defense at the time of shutdown. On the periphery are two teams of half elf archers, which are sulun's Lord guard.

The low horn sounded and the high flying flag sounded. Su Lun turned over and mounted the horse, then gently knocked the horse's belly, and the big black horse took a few steps forward.

to be sonorous!

Su Lun pulled out his sword and looked around: "soldiers, we have come to this barren land after suffering!"

"Drove away the goblin dog leader, expelled the jackals, defeated the ogres, killed the trolls, wiped out the orc devils, and then really occupied this land!"

"But today, the orc army comes again! They want to occupy this land, they want to enslave us and kill us."

"Now tell me what you're going to do!" sullen roared.

"Death war!"

"Death war!"

"Death war!"

There was a roar around. All the soldiers held their weapons high and roared up to the sky. A high fighting spirit resounded through the sky! The voice spread all over the four fields, and even the Centaur army on the Bank of Baishui River a few kilometers away was slightly agitated.

As soon as Su Lun pulled the reins, the horses stood up, and the army was quiet again.

"Today, more than 10000 orcs came, and we only had 2500, more than four times our number, but I was not afraid at all."

"If you decide the outcome according to the number of people, who can compare with the Kobold and goblins!"

"Soldiers are expensive, but not many. I, Suellen! Led 35 barbarians to start a foundation, invincible all the way!"

"Why?"

"Because as long as I su Lun is alive, he will be invincible!" Su Lun roared.

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

All the soldiers in the north of the town roared in unison, and their voices pierced through the clouds and rocks, reaching into the sky.

"Let's go!" Su Lun pointed to his long sword and roared, "let those green bastards know that attacking here will be the biggest mistake of their life!"

Neat footsteps sounded, the army slowly pulled out, 800 horsemen guarded the two wings, and other soldiers pushed forward slowly. In the rear of the army, 80 crossbow carts were placed on more than a dozen carriages, and the army went all the way east along the Hongsha river.

Su Lun's position to stop the orc army is on the Bank of the Baishui River. After the Baishui River flows eastward through the mine, the water slows down. This is the easiest place to cross the river nearby. According to the news from the reconnaissance camp, the orc army is moving in the right direction. At this time, they are less than 50 miles away.

Across the river, a large number of ORC wolf cavalry swam around. They were closely monitoring the movement of sulun army.

The sun shines high.

Su Lun has commanded the army to camp. The orc army is willing to send soldiers to test. If the north city of Zhenbei is defeated, they will directly cross the river. If not, they will camp and fight with humans all day.

After the troops of Zhenbei City camped again, the orc army did not change direction, but came directly here. Obviously, the orcs decided to completely defeat the troops of Zhenbei fort here.

In the view of the orcs, this is a very good opportunity. They are not good at attacking the city. If they can annihilate the living forces of human beings here, the north city of Zhenbei is basically easy to get. Therefore, after discovering the human army, they not only did not avoid, but directly came in this direction.

In the afternoon, the camp in the north of the town had been built, and the kitchen army had begun to bury pots for cooking. The army was in order. At this time, an orc army on the other side of the river was separated from the army. They carried a large number of rafts to the Baishui river.

The scouts who monitored the orc's actions by the river found the orc's actions for the first time and quickly issued a warning. Su Lun immediately led two teams of long gunmen and two teams of archers out of the camp.

An orc soldier rushed towards the river with a wooden raft. These orcs, like those seen before, were tall, powerful and ferocious. They had a pair of long canine teeth in their jaws, wore leather armor and had a variety of weapons. Most of them were maces and giant axes. Many orcs made simple wooden shields with one side.

The formation of these troops is scattered, but a fierce spirit pours on them. If they are timid, they are expected to turn around and run away. The soldiers behind Su Lun were silent and stared at the orcs on the other side of the river. The next archers had opened their bows and arrows. As long as Su Lun gave an order, these archers would shoot the arrow feathers out at the first time.

"Rush!"

With a roar, the green orcs rushed to the river, then threw their rafts into the water, and then several people rushed up.

The space of the raft is limited. There can only be four or five people on a raft. These orcs hold their shields and rush to the other side.

The river channel of Baishui River here is about 80 meters wide. If it is on the ground, the orcs can cross it with only one charge. Now it is on the river. Although the speed has been reduced a lot, it is still rowing fast.

Soon the orcs had come to the middle of the river. Suellen waved gently and locked them with cold arrows.

At the same time, the long spearmen on the river have also lined up their formations.

"Shoot an arrow!" by the river, Su Lun looked at the orc army indifferently, waved his long sword, and fired at the orc army on the river.
