Suhlen moved his wrists and weighed the spear in his hand. The three-meter-long spear was thrown out with more power than the ballista bolts. Several wyverns that were hit directly fell from the sky.
The three-meter-long spear pierced through their bodies, and even the orc knights on their bodies were pierced. Seeing such terrible injuries, the remaining wyvern knights were so frightened that they quickly flew higher into the sky, not daring to tangle with the harpies.
To these wyvern knights, killing a few dozen harpies was not enough to make up for their losses. How many harpies were there, and how many wyverns were there? To put it bluntly, the value of a wyvern was several hundred times that of a harpy.
The orc army had more than a hundred thousand in total, but there were no more than thirty wyverns in total. They had already used up the entire tribe's strength to successfully tame them. The amount of resources and energy spent was too much for a large tribe like theirs to bear.
The northern wastelands were barren to begin with, and the orcs were not good at farming, so the food production was limited. A Yaron like the wyverns needed a bison for every meal. In a month, these thirty-odd wyverns needed hundreds of bison. Not to mention the cost of capturing and taming them.
Every wyvern was very precious in the Orc Tribe. Now, six or seven wyverns had died in this battle. Such a heavy loss made Barton not dare to tangle with the Harpies anymore.
Even in Calt City, they had only suffered three casualties after fighting against the human griffin knights for half a month. On the other hand, the human griffin knights had suffered more than twenty casualties. Originally, Barton did not care too much about the mission of encircling this human army. After all, in their opinion, this human army only dared to launch sneak attacks. As long as they blocked them, it would be easy to deal with them.
In the end, the development of the situation surprised them. After being surrounded, the human army did not have the slightest intention of escaping. Instead, they directly killed the wolf riders that were in charge of delaying them. Then, they quickly ate the two orc armies, and then went to fight with the remaining two armies. Even their wyvern knight squad suffered a great loss.
The Wyverns retreated from the battle in a panic. Alex coldly glanced at them and did not give chase. The main reason was that these Wyverns were very fast, making it very difficult to chase them down. The battle below was still ongoing, so the Harpies could not leave the battlefield.
Without the wyverns' interference, the harpies once again launched a surprise attack on the orcs. A large number of stones fell from the sky, and the orcs, who lacked protection, were unable to resist at all. The originally struggling front quickly began to collapse. At this time, Suhlen activated the Lightning Domain.
There were no Legendary-level warriors in the Orc army. After all, they thought that it wouldn't be too difficult to wipe out the small army that had been causing trouble at the rear. However, they didn't expect that the 20,000 Orcs would be defeated by this "small army".
What was even more unacceptable was that the commander of this army was actually a legendary powerhouse. They had originally wanted to catch a big fish, but instead, they caught a shark. Not only was the bait eaten, but even the fisherman could not escape.
Under the continuous attacks of the barbarian warriors, heavy armored spearmen, spear guards, harpies, and centaur cavalry, the orc army was in a precarious situation. After seeing Suhlen activate the Lightning Domain, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The entire orc army no longer had any intention of holding on, and completely collapsed.
Seeing the orc army collapse, the morale of the northern city soldiers was even higher. With the help of the centaur cavalry, they began to chase and kill the orcs. The scattered orc army had no discipline at all. The mountains and plains were filled with orcs running wildly, afraid that they would be killed by the humans behind them if they were too slow. This orc army had completely lost the courage to continue.
In the end, even if they managed to escape the pursuit, it would take a long time for them to recover their morale. The soldiers of the northern city were like chasing ducks. They chased the large number of orcs away. Along the way, there were corpses of orcs everywhere. Suhlen chased for 20 miles. When he saw that the formation of the army had completely collapsed, he was shocked. He quickly ordered all the troops to gather.
The hot-blooded soldiers of the northern city finally came back to their senses. After seeing that the army had completely dispersed, Suhlen was also scared. If there was another army ambushing here at this time, with the performance of the northern city army, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
Luckily, the orc army did not leave an ambush here. However, this also reminded Suhlen that he could not be complacent at any time. Otherwise, he would end up like Cao Cao. Haha, I laughed at Zhou Yu's lack of strategy. Zhuge Shaozhi! What if I ambush another army? What will happen?
That famous scene suddenly appeared in Suhlen's mind. He shook his head and swept the scene of why the prime minister was laughing out of his mind. Suhlen then ordered the army to clean up the battlefield. Although the orcs did not bring any supplies, they still had a lot of weapons and armor.
Although these weapons were not as good as the ones in the northern city, they were still pretty good after being reforged. At least these weapons had been refined. Other than leaving a few people to clean up the battlefield, Suhlen once again led his men to attack the orc camp where the human slaves were imprisoned. Half of the orc army in this camp had been mobilized. Now that Suhlen's attack was unstoppable, it did not take him much effort to conquer the camp.
Seeing this situation, Suhlen decided to go all out. He directly led his men to attack the other camps where the human slaves were imprisoned. In order to deal with Suhlen, the orcs had mobilized half of their army in the rear camp. Only the ones guarding the food were not mobilized. Now, the orc army was wiped out by Suhlen. There was no longer an army that could pose a threat to him.
Even if Su Lun swaggered past the Orcs' camp with his human slaves, the Orcs just held their camp without the slightest intention of attacking.
Suhlen ordered his subordinates to gather the prisoners while he checked his harvest.
[The battle is over. Congratulations, Host. You have won an epic victory!]
[The battle of encirclement and counter-encirclement: July 1687 of the Huiyue Calendar. The northern orcs invaded the south. The Blackstone Stronghold was breached in a week, and the northern provinces fell. You led the army of the northern city to conduct guerilla warfare behind the orcs in the northern provinces. You successfully attacked the orc camps multiple times and caused a large number of casualties.
The orcs mobilized more than twenty thousand orcs, including wolf riders and wyvern riders, to ambush you and your army from all sides. At this critical moment, you led your army to eliminate more than three thousand wolf riders, then broke through the orc army that surrounded the two sides. Finally, you engaged in a decisive battle with the remaining orcs.
In the end, you and your army achieved a glorious victory. Your battle dealt a huge blow to the orcs. As the battle was over, the reputation of you and your army began to spread. You have gained a huge reputation in the Kingdom of Florence. [Reputation + 25]
[You have defeated the orcs and saved a large number of human slaves. You have gained + 10 favorability with the nobles in the northern provinces. Your reputation has begun to spread among the nobles. Your Charm has increased by 2, so you can easily gain the favor of the nobles.]
[You have defeated the orc army. You have gained 33,560 experience points. You have gained one platinum treasure chest and two gold treasure chests.]
[The battle is over. You have gained the item Recruitment Token x2!]
Suhlen rubbed his hands excitedly. He had gained one platinum treasure chest and two gold treasure chests from this battle. There were even two Recruitment Tokens. The value was not small. First, he went to find some clean water to wash himself seriously, then asked someone to prepare a quiet room. After meditating in the quiet room for a while, Suhlen ritualistically opened the storage space.
After thinking for a while, he opened the two gold treasure chests.
There was a flash of light, and the familiar sound of the system rang in his ears.
[Congratulations, host. You have opened the gold treasure chest. You have gained the skill [Greater Group Haste (Increase army speed)].]
[Congratulations, host. You have opened the gold treasure chest. You have gained the Tiger Tally: Shooting Sound Camp!]
Seeing the item in the gold treasure chest, Suhlen's eyes lit up.
[Greater Group Haste: A skill created by the system to increase army speed combined with the rules of this world. After use, it can buff the soldiers under your command with the Greater Group Haste. The spell range is 1,000 people. For every additional 100 people, the energy consumption will increase by 20%. Spell effect: Movement speed will increase by 100%. Duration: 1 hour.]
The effect of the Greater Group Haste was very powerful. It directly doubled the speed of the soldiers. If all the soldiers were buffed with this skill, the movement ability of the Northern Battlefront City Army would be insane. No matter if it was used to attack or retreat, they could completely take the initiative. They could fight if they wanted to and run if they did not want to. The only problem was that the energy consumption was a little high.
Suhlen played with the Tiger Tally in his hand. He already had a Tiger Tally like this. It was the Formation Breaker. There were 700 Formation Breakers. It could allow the Spear Guard to advance to a higher level of Formation Breaker. This Tiger Tally of the Shooting Sound Camp had the same effect.
[Commander Tally (Shooting Sound Camp): After use, it can train a special elite soldier type, the Shooting Sound Camp. They can shoot arrows from a hundred paces away, rain arrows from the sky, and shoot arrows from the Feather Forest. They will follow you in life and death. Recruitment: 500 people. Recruitment Requirements: Sharpshooter. Recruitment requires 100 units of food. Kinnar: 200 units. Training success rate: 20%.]
After seeing the recruitment requirements of the Shooting Sound Camp, Suhlen already knew that this was the advancement of the archers. Originally, when an archer advanced to become a Sharpshooter, they would reach the peak. If they could not break through to become a hero, then their potential would be exhausted and they would not be able to advance for the rest of their lives. However, with this Shooting Sound Camp's Commander Tally, those soldiers who reached the level of a Sharpshooter could advance again as long as they passed the test.
