The Northern Citadel's pikemen had been through a lot of battles. Even the weakest pikemen were elite pikemen. The backbone of the army was the heavy armored pikemen. These heavy armored pikemen had all reached the level of knights. In the Kingdom of Florence, a knight was at least a centurion.
These heavy armored pikemen were very strong in close combat. They were much stronger than the orc infantry. Only the elite orc warriors could fight them, but there weren't many of them. Not to mention, the Northern Citadel's army was well-equipped, while most of the orcs only had leather armor. Under these circumstances, the orcs were no match for the Northern Citadel's army.
The orcs originally wanted to kill the humans with their axes, but their vision blurred. They felt a sharp pain in their chest, and the energy in their bodies was quickly drained away. Then, they fell into an endless darkness.
The Barbarian warriors in the Northern Battlefront City army were even more desperate. They loved this kind of chaotic battlefield. Two hundred Barbarian warriors were wearing full-body armor made by the dwarves. They were holding giant axes in their hands. The heavy axes were like toys in their hands. Even a strong orc would be cut in half with a swing of their axes.
These Barbarian Axe Berserkers all activated Berserk, and with all kinds of buffs, they became even faster. They swung their axes like windmills, and wherever they went, corpses littered the ground. Not a single complete corpse could be found. The Barbarians were attacking with all their might, and they had no defense at all. However, the Dwarven full-body armor they were wearing blocked all the attacks.
The orcs were powerless against these killing machines. The Archers began to fire, and the continuous rain of arrows caused the Orcs to suffer heavy casualties. Following this, the Centaur Heavy Cavalry launched a surprise attack on the Orcs' flanks. 200 Centaur Heavy Cavalry formed a conical formation, and behind them were even more Centaur Light Cavalry, attacking from the flanks.
The heavy cavalry tore through the orcs' formation, causing the already chaotic formation to turn upside down. The orcs were beaten up by the Northern Citadel's army since the beginning of the battle. They didn't even have a chance to breathe. The harpies in the sky began a new round of attacks. Large amounts of rocks fell from the sky. The orcs didn't even have a place to hide.
The orc army quickly fell apart under the attacks of the Northern Citadel's army. The five thousand orcs were completely defeated in a dozen minutes. Large amounts of orcs began to flee. The Northern Citadel's army killed their way through. Everywhere they went, there were corpses.
After defeating the orc army, Su Lun didn't continue to chase after the orc army. Instead, he rode to the orc army in the east, which was the closest. The orc army hadn't received the news yet, so they didn't expect the Northern Citadel army to come from the north.
They didn't expect this, so their left flank was broken. The harpies used the same trick again. The rocks fell from the sky. This orc army couldn't hold on either. They quickly fell apart under the Northern Citadel's attack. Under Suhlen's command, they won again.
After defeating the two armies, Su Lun didn't order his army to continue. Instead, he took the time to rest. Although the results of the two successful raids were glorious, it was also a test of the stamina of the soldiers of North Town City. From the beginning of the battle with the wolf riders, they had traveled 20 kilometers back and forth, defeated three armies, and killed tens of thousands of orcs in just one hour. It was a glorious result.
After such a long battle, the orc army in the east and the orc army in the south had finished regrouping. At this time, the orcs already knew that the other two orc armies had been defeated. When they heard this news, the commanders of the two orc armies couldn't believe it. After confirming it again and again, they reluctantly believed it.
Right now, there were only two paths in front of them. They could retreat, or they could regroup and fight the Northern Citadel's army.
These orcs weren't willing to just retreat. If they went back like this, they would lose a lot of soldiers, and they wouldn't get anything. No matter how magnanimous Rogsius was, he wouldn't be able to resist chopping off their heads. Plus, this human army had just fought a fierce battle with the other three orc armies. Although they won, they must have used up a lot of their stamina.
They didn't believe that the Northern Citadel's army could defeat the orcs so easily. Therefore, they thought that the Northern Citadel's army was already at the end of their rope. They couldn't retreat at this time.
After a simple discussion, the two orc armies merged and charged toward the Northern Citadel's army. Suhlen wasn't surprised by their decision at all. If it was a human, they would most likely retreat. If they pursued, it would easily cause the entire army to collapse.
After seeing the orc army continue to attack the Northern Citadel, Suhlen sighed. If the orcs really retreated, Suhlen would definitely chase after them. At that time, with the help of the Harpies and the Centaurs, he was 100% sure that he could defeat the orc army while they were retreating. At that time, all he had to do was chase after them.
Since the orcs didn't run, they could only fight. The continuous victories had boosted the morale of the Northern Citadel's army. At the same time, they had a psychological advantage against the orcs. Seeing the orc army advancing, Suhlen began to rearrange his formation. When the orcs arrived, the Northern Citadel's army was already waiting for them.
After a dozen minutes of rest, although the soldiers hadn't recovered to their peak condition, they were still mostly recovered. Their morale didn't drop at all when facing the orc army of over ten thousand.
The orcs were even more surprised when they saw the Northern Battlefront City's army. It was completely different from what they thought the human army would be at the end of their rope.
Suhlen didn't give them a chance to think. He immediately launched the attack. What surprised him even more was that after he gave the order, a system notification suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Congratulations, Host! Your army has triggered the special effect of the Miracle Construction [Triumphal Arch] in this battle. The army on the battlefield has received the buff of the [Song of Triumph]!"
At the same time, in the Northern Citadel far away in the Northern Wastelands, a different kind of energy suddenly came from the solemn Triumphal Arch. A faint battle song sounded. The sound was very faint. On the battlefield, all the soldiers of the Northern Citadel heard the same battle song.
When the battle song sounded, the soldiers couldn't help but sing along. A huge aura rose from the army. Their tired bodies immediately became full of energy. It was as if their bodies had endless energy.
The passionate battle song made the blood of the Northern Citadel's army boil. At the same time, the orc army's morale unknowingly dropped.
Seeing this situation, Suhlen didn't hesitate and launched the first attack. The Northern Citadel's army that had been buffed to the max launched a surprise attack. The orcs didn't show any weakness and also rushed up. As soon as they came into contact, a fierce battle broke out. At the same time, in the sky, just as the harpies were about to launch a surprise attack, a team of wyvern knights rushed over.
Although there were only twelve Wyvern Knights, they weren't afraid in the slightest when facing the Harpies. After all, Wyverns were rank 3 extraordinary creatures. In addition to the rank 3 Orc Knights, even the Harpies weren't a match for them except for Alex.
The flying ability of the harpies didn't have any advantage when facing the wyverns. Compared to the wyverns, they were like children who had just learned how to walk.
In just one contact, twenty or so harpies fell from the sky. It looked like they wouldn't survive.
"You all deserve to die!" Seeing his own people being wantonly slaughtered, Alex was furious.
"Wind Blade Flurry!"
"Slow!"
"Repeating Fireball!"
"Thunderstorm!"
Several flashes of light appeared in a row. A dozen wind blades appeared out of thin air and quickly flew towards the wyverns. Earthen yellow light fell from the sky and the originally swift wyverns instantly slowed down. At the same time, five fireballs formed beside Alex.
Then, he directly flew towards a wyvern knight. A large amount of lightning energy gathered in the sky and in the next second, a dazzling lightning suddenly burst out.
A dozen Wind Blades rushed to the Wyvern's side. The Beastman Knight sitting on the Wyvern wanted to dodge, but his body sank and he missed the opportunity. The three-meter-long lance in his hand hurriedly smashed at the Wind Blade. The lance, which had been activated with life energy, collided with the Wind Blade and directly exploded.
Just as they didn't have time to relax, a fireball had already arrived in front of them. The wyverns quickly dodged, but these fireballs directly exploded beside them and the flames instantly enveloped them. Powerful lightning energy exploded in the air and lightning snakes splashed in the sky. A few wyvern knights were directly electrocuted and numbed. Even the wyverns started falling from the lightning.
Fortunately, these wyverns had good resistances. When they were about to fall, the numbing effect finally disappeared and they avoided the danger of falling to their deaths. However, the others weren't so lucky. Two wyverns that recovered a bit late didn't have time to adjust and fell to the ground. Even with the physique of wyverns, falling from such a high altitude would cause their bones to break.
One of their wings was broken and their bodies were fractured in many places. Seeing this situation, the centaur knights wandering around the periphery directly rushed up and easily killed the confused orcs before they could react. The wyvern knights that were hit by the Repeating Fireball were burned by the flames. The shockwave swept across and their bodies also started falling. However, they quickly regained their balance. After all, the shockwave produced by the explosion had limited effects.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
At this time, a few javelins suddenly flew out from the Northguard City's army. These javelins were powerful and heavy and instantly hit the wyverns. These wyverns stiffened and then accelerated their fall.
