The fireball dragged a long tail behind it, and the arrows were coated in green poison. When the Steelback Eagles were less than a hundred meters away, the fireball met them head-on.
"Kill!"
Barrow drew his sword and looked at the rain of arrows. Although he was a little afraid, retreating now would only make him a target. Furthermore, the glory of an imperial knight made it impossible for him to retreat on the battlefield.
"Kill!"
All the knights drew their swords and roared in unison.
"Bang!"
When the fireball hit the Steel Riding Eagle, it directly smashed a bloody hole in the body of the Steel Riding Eagle. Together with the Steel Riding Eagle, the Steel Riding Eagle fell from the sky and was badly mutilated.
"Puff puff puff!"
The poisoned arrows pierced the eyes and bodies of the Steelback Eagles. The hundreds of large Steelback Eagles became the best targets in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the menacing Steelback Eagles fell from the sky like dumplings.
Screams!
Wails!
Wails resounded in the sky above the Utopia tribe.
Barrow's heart was bleeding. It was only the first wave of attacks, but because of the unexpected ambush, the flying regiment had lost two-thirds of its members.
The knights who had lost their mounts and fell from the sky were dizzy from the fall. Before they could react, they were hacked to death by the orcs that swarmed forward.
"Break their formation!" Barrow roared. He led the rest of the flying cavalrymen to charge downwards.
The Steelback Eagles could cover a distance of thirty meters in less than a breath's time. He wanted to slaughter the entire tribe as a sacrifice to his brothers.
"Spear team!"
After a round of arrows, Haga roared as he drew his bow and fired again.
Hundreds of strong men holding five-meter-long spears appeared behind the archers. The sharp tips of the spears were pointed at forty-five degrees to the sky, facing the Steelback Flying Regiment that had taken the first volley of arrows.
"Careful!"
Barrow looked at the silver spears that suddenly rose from the city wall and was shocked. He pulled on the reins to change the flying position of the Steelback Eagles as he shouted.
However, not everyone had Barrow's reaction speed.
One by one, the Ironback Eagles were unable to dodge in time and directly crashed into the slanted spears.
The five-meter-long spear pierced through the Iron-back Eagle's body, skewering it and the knight on its back. Blood splattered all over the city wall, creating a bloody and spectacular scene.
"Retreat! Retreat! "
Barrow shouted in panic as he rode the Ironback Eagle into the sky.
This was the first time they had encountered such a powerful and terrifying counterattack in today's battle. The other party seemed to know their fighting style and used efficient and terrifying methods to deal the greatest amount of damage to them.
Although he was a level-seven knight, he only had twenty to thirty subordinates left. Moreover, the other party had orcs of a higher level. Retreating was the only choice, and also the wisest choice.
Hundreds of Iron-back Eagle Riders charged over, but in the blink of an eye, only a few dozen Iron-back Eagles were left, fleeing in panic.
"Fire!"
But at this moment, the second round of attacks from the Orcs began.
Hundreds of sharpshooters aimed at the twenty to thirty Iron-back Eagles, but in the end, only three Iron-back Eagles managed to escape with arrows. They wobbled as they flew towards the valley.
The cavalry regiment that rushed out of the canyon just happened to see the flying group of Iron-back Eagles charging towards the orc tribe halfway up the mountain. The expected crushing situation did not happen, but they saw the Iron-back Eagles falling down like dumplings. Then, they inexplicably crashed into the city wall, and many of them were nailed to death. In the end, they fled in panic, and only three Iron-back Eagles escaped the range of the arrows.
"How could this be?" The cavalry stared with wide eyes, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
In the previous battles where they had attacked other orc tribes, even the larger ones, the Iron-back Eagles had been able to cause a lot of casualties and internal chaos.
"We won!"
Habeng shouted excitedly, clenching his fists.
The other orcs also cheered.
This was a battle that was destined to be recorded in the annals of the Utopia Tribe.
"Clean up the battlefield and drag the Iron-back Eagles from the city wall back to the tribe. They are very good food." Haga put down his bow. His expression was still calm. He did not feel smug about the battle that he had just led.
"This is only the vanguard of the Roth Empire, and only one of the vanguard units. We will be attacked even more fiercely! The number of enemies is very large. I need everyone to stand up and fight to protect our home and our families! "Haga shouted.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!!! "
The orcs clenched their fists and shouted.
About 30,000 cavalrymen passed through the valley and headed straight for the Utopia Tribe.
An entire Iron-back Eagle Squadron was almost wiped out. This was a huge insult to the warriors of the Roth Empire.
They wanted this tribe, which was only marked as a small dot on the map, to be wiped out forever, just like the other tribes.
The catapults were set up again. The archers stroked their longbows as they stood on the city wall and watched the Roth Empire's cavalrymen get closer and closer.
The spearmen put their spears aside and stood in front of a pile of huge rocks.
Meanwhile, the other orcs had already prepared all the support work below the city wall. This included moving the huge rocks up the city wall, filling in the gaps of their fallen tribesmen, and engaging in close combat after the enemy breached the city wall …
…
"Baro, what's going on?" A middle-aged general in armor asked Baro, who had been shot in the shoulder and was receiving treatment from the medics. Baro's face was pale.
Charlie was a deputy general of the Northwestern Allied Army. He was an experienced general and also a powerful 9th-tier knight.
This time, the military had suddenly given the order to launch a thunderous operation against the orcs. He was leading an army of 30,000 cavalrymen to attack from the middle. Their goal was to break through the entire Twilight Forest and split it apart.
As for those orc tribes that had been breached, the order was to kill them all.
The orcs were not weak as a whole, but this was because they were united. They had gathered the elites and powerhouses of each tribe in advance to form a powerful orc army.
When the orc tribes were fighting on their own, they were unable to withstand a single blow from the large number of well-trained Roth Empire's cavalrymen.
However, this small tribe that had been built halfway up the mountain actually wiped out the Iron-back Eagle Squadron. This was equivalent to destroying their aerial power. Charlie had to take this seriously.
"General, the other party is very cunning. We were ambushed. They came prepared, so we suffered heavy losses." Baro looked at Charlie with an aggrieved expression. Tears were already welling up in his eyes.
