As everyone knew, the Green Skin was a race that never recorded history. For this race that was specially created by the Ancient Sages in a crisis and only used for battle, their understanding of history was limited to the various slang, stories, rumors, and myths passed down by word of mouth among the Green Skin.
Most of the Green Skin didn't know how long their tribe had existed, how many leaders had changed, and what important events were worth remembering. These weren't important. Most of the Green Skin only remembered those glorious victories, the battles that they fought to their hearts' content, and the old WAAAGH warbosses in history, as well as some scenes that were engraved into their DNA because of their deep impressions.
And for the Green Skin, those who were known as the greatest, most powerful, and most WAAAGH warlords had undoubtedly done many great deeds, such as the Skull of the Shrimps, the Beard Barbecue, and the glorious story of defeating the group of spiky brats (Chaos).
But to the green-skinned creatures, this was the greatest temptation. It was no different from charging through the Black Fire Pass and entering the so-called Empire of the shrimps. They would burn, kill, and plunder. They would smash the seemingly sturdy cities and great temples of the shrimps into smithereens before defecating and urinating on them. There was nothing more satisfying than this.
The enemies of the Beard were not difficult to defeat. In the Green Skin's memory, they had won and lost in the war with the Beard. They were roughly evenly matched. Among them, the most recent glorious victory was undoubtedly the raid on Fort Calac – Ironpeak, which almost wiped out the Dwarf Royal Family in one fell swoop. And the most recent tragic defeat was undoubtedly the fall of Eight Peaks Mountain. About 100,000 Green Skin died in this battle. Bellegar and the big gray warboss Laing together beat the crap out of Skarnik and Quake. In the end, Bellegar and the big gray warboss Skarnik and Quake were chopped into pieces.
Therefore, compared to dealing with the Beard, the temptation of rushing through the Blackfire Pass and rushing into the plains to slaughter the Shrimps was much greater. Just look at those great legendary Green Skin warlords. Gobard the Iron Claw had almost destroyed the Ivy Hill, destroyed the Sol Hill, and almost destroyed the Wesson Hill. In the end, he stopped at the city of Brunswick. The big eater Gru swept through the entire southern Empire, almost attacking the White Wolf City, and finally, even WAAAGH! They arrived in Ossouin.
When a mysterious visitor found a green-skinned warlord with Sanctuary-level strength to the east of the Roof of the World, and requested the powerful warlord Worgaz Ironjaw to lead the green-skinned warlord to attack the Blackfire Pass, Worgaz Ironjaw didn't think too much about it and thought that it was possible.
It had long wanted to have a fated WAAAGH!
That's right, that mysterious guest was Man Frey, the last Vampire Count. After hundreds of years, he had already figured out the interests of the Green Skins. When he used the Green Skins' clumsy language to explain his intentions, the Green Skins immediately became excited and went berserk.
That was right! How could destroying beards be more interesting than killing shrimps?
Of course, was Man Frey really thinking about the Green Skins when he encouraged them to attack the Black Fire Pass?
Take a guess.
However, other than Man Frey grasping the Green Dwarfs' interest, the Green Dwarfs themselves were facing a predicament where Vogaz Ironjaw hoped to gather such a huge WAAAGH! An important reason.
Since the destruction of Blackrock Fortress and the fall of Eight Peaks Mountain, the survival of the Green Dwarfs at the southern end of the Roof of the World had begun to fall into a difficult situation. In front of the Dwarfs and the three Badlands Warlords left behind by the Gray Can warlord, the space for the Green Dwarfs to move became much smaller.
The recovered Eight Peaks Mountain was managed like an iron bucket, and the shrimps of the three Badlands Warlords received the full help of the beards. More of the Green Dwarfs were forced to develop towards the south. As a result, they bumped into Cytra's Tomb King army. The ribs were more difficult to deal with than the shrimps and beards. They were more difficult to deal with. They often got up after being knocked down, and their bones would reassemble after being scattered. Moreover, it was very boring to fight. The Badlands Green Dwarfs fought a few rounds with the Tomb King, but they didn't gain the upper hand.
From the perspective of the Green Dwarfs, there should be changes and they should fight for the survival of the Green Dwarfs.
In a situation where both sides needed each other, the Vampire Count Man Frey successfully reached an agreement with the Green Dwarfs.
Therefore, this huge WAAAGH finally erupted.
As Man Frey accurately gave the route and time of Steer's reinforcements, the Green Dwarfs' warlord, Vogaz Ironjaw, directly led his elite troops to set up an ambush on the road and slaughtered thousands of Steer's troops. Steer's General Stoff was also beheaded and hung under the neck of his war boar.
Similarly, the Tribal Shaman also agreed with Man Frey's opinion. That was to let the low-level Goblins and brats exhaust the Shrimps' stamina and life force first. Let the Shrimps be tired, and finally let the warlord lead his elite troops to appear and decide the outcome in one fell swoop!
Then, did Vogaz Ironjaw's plan succeed?
Obviously, without a doubt, his plan was very successful.
When the elite troops led by Vogaz Ironjaw arrived and joined the battle, the Empire's army could only be described as panic-stricken. No one would have thought that after a few long hours of battle, the Green Dwarfs would still hide such a powerful elite troop. Especially when the 800 Green Dwarfs charged together, the five legions of 5,000 Green Dwarfs shouted "WAAAGH" towards the sky. When the two legions of Black Orcs with heavy armor and giant axes joined the battle, the morale of the Empire's army almost collapsed.
It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The first to be hit was Nuer's artillery regiment. Facing the charge of the Green-skinned Battle Boar, Nuer's army bore the brunt. These brave and experienced artillerymen inevitably panicked. When those Green-skinned Battle Boar smashed into the artillery formation like cannonballs, the entire artillery regiment's artillery was almost completely destroyed in the blink of an eye.
"Retreat, retreat!" When faced with the Green Dwarfs' charge, the Nur army's first reaction was to retreat. Emilia's Blackrock Sentinels and Armoured Nur immediately surrounded Frey Derick. The Armoured Nur's commander, Jubal Fokke, shouted towards the young Baron, "Baron, please leave the battlefield immediately! Theodore, I'll leave the Baron to you! "
"No! I won't leave! " Frey Derick was supported by two Blackrock Sentinels as he retreated. The eldest son of the Sun King roared, "How can I run away before the battle!"
"You have to leave. Even if all of us die, nothing can happen to you!" Jubal Fokke roared towards Nur's chief judge, Theodore Bruckner, "Hurry up and take the Baron away!"
"We can't retreat!" Frey Derick roared, "We can only persevere!"
The two Nur artillery regiments were quickly destroyed by the Green Dwarfs. The precious cannoneers were massacred by the Green Dwarfs' machetes. Then came the three musketeer regiments. Relying on two volleys, the Green Dwarfs left behind more than eighty corpses and defeated the three regiments in one fell swoop.
The battlefield was littered with deserters from the Empire.
Seeing this scene, Great Alchemist Bayershaz Gelt turned pale with fright. He hurriedly chanted an incantation, and the Wind of Piety stirred up. A high wall quickly separated the Nu 'er Armored Army, the Blackstone Guards, and the Green Skin Army. Then the Great Alchemist immediately ordered the elites of Saul's Territory to block it.
The Nur Guards were unable to stop the Green Dwarfs' charge, but they managed to buy time for the Nur army to regroup.
The charging soldiers were easily slaughtered and routed. They used their flesh and blood to form a defensive line to resist the charge of the Green-skinned War Boars. Vogaz Ironjaw personally led the charge, and with a slash of its saber, two shrimps were cut down!
Panic began to spread from the left flank of the Empire's frontline. It was as if the Orc warlords were unstoppable. One after another, terrible news arrived at Gelt's side.
"Feidolf's First Legion has been defeated!"
"My lord, the Third Legion can't hold on any longer!"
"Sol's Fifth Halberd Regiment has been completely destroyed!"
"If we don't receive any reinforcements, the Eldrad Guards will all die in battle!"
Metalface was at a loss as to what to do. Gelt could only order everyone to hold on.
Just as the Sol and Nur armies on the left flank were about to be completely defeated, a young man in a golden robe and black armor appeared in front of everyone again. He raised the Black Scale Golden Lion flag high up. Behind him, the Armoured Nur and Blackstone Guards formed a circle with luggage carts, cannons, and chariots.
"Frey Derick Von Lebowitz Bernardino is here!" Frey Derick raised the flag with both hands. The baron shouted, "Nur and Sol soldiers, gather to me!"
"Toot, toot, toot, toot." A heavy bugle sounded. Under the huge military flag, the left wing, which had suffered more than half casualties, began to regroup towards Frederick's location.
The green-skinned Warlord Worgaz Ironjaw had also noticed Frederick. He laughed out loud and said, "Look at that ugly and bald kid. Why are you looking at me? Strong, strong. "
However, the firepower of Nurr's Iron Armored Army was indeed ferocious. The first few waves of Green Dwarfs that tried to charge forward were blocked by the circular formation and shot down by the rows of muskets. The brave Blackstone Guards swore to protect their Baron and sliced apart any Green Dwarfs that tried to approach with their greatswords. Judge Theodore Bruckner of Nurr sent two Green Dwarfs flying with a punch and cut down a Goblin General with a swing of his sword.
Vogaz Ironjaw quickly determined that the circle could not be taken down for the time being. He was also not interested in Frey Derick, so the Green Dwarfs ordered, "Little ones, hold back your bellies and follow me! Waaaagh！”
“waaagh！”
“waaaaagh！”
The Green Dwarfs went around the circle and went straight for the Empire's central army.
If Frey Derick was trying to regroup the left flank, then the young baron had succeeded. The Nur Sol Alliance, which had lost more than half of its soldiers, retreated into the circle to resist the Green Dwarfs' attack. However, there was no doubt that the Empire's left flank could no longer stop the Green Dwarfs' attack.
The central army of the Empire soon discovered that there were hundreds of green-skinned battle boars charging from the rear. The riders were the best warriors among the Oker Orcs. They were tough veterans covered in wounds, and they were much bigger and stronger than the normal green-skinned brats. They formed an unstoppable force of battle.
What was worse was that on the main battlefield, the addition of the five green-skinned army had already made it very difficult for the Rick army, and the addition of the hairy colossi made it even worse for the imperial army. These terrifying colossi destroyed an entire platoon of dozens of halberd soldiers with just one slap on the ground!
The Black Orcs used giant axes to rush into Ivy's army on the right flank. They punched and kicked Ivy's army and swept their axes. Kurfürst Marius's army could not fight against such a powerful enemy. Kurfürst Marius was forced to ask the Emperor for help! Otherwise, the right flank would collapse within 20 minutes!
"Curt, do we still have reserves?" The Emperor's central army had almost all entered the battle. He asked Marshal Rick anxiously.
"There are still a few legions … but they can't be of any use. Most of them are free men and reserves." Marshal Rick said in despair, "Your Majesty, please leave immediately and retreat with the army that can still retreat. I only need two teams of knights to help me cover the retreat. I will buy time for you!"
"Retreat?" Emperor Karl-franz looked at the scene in front of him. He seemed to be confused.
If the Emperor retreated at this time, what would it mean?
Even if Marshal Rick sacrificed himself to cover the retreat, this battle would still be a failure. Ivy's territory would fall. Not only would the Empire's granary not have any harvest for a whole year, but the countless rich and prosperous towns and manors would also be turned into ashes in the hands of the Green Skins.
Then, it would be the Halfling's homeland, Mutt's territory, Saul's territory, and Wyson's territory in the south. Nur would be besieged. Then, it would be Brunswick and Rick's territory, until the entire Empire.
Was this what the Emperor would do? Abandon his tens of thousands of people? How would he explain it to all the Kurfürst? Wipe out 100,000 enemies and turn the victory into Brunswick?
"No!" The Emperor opened his mouth. His expression was firm. "I will not return to the capital. Curt, that is your mission. Take a team and go back to Brunswick. Rebuild our army and city defense. I will personally deal with that Green Skin warlord."
"Your Majesty?!" Marshal Rick shouted anxiously. "Do you know what you are saying?"
"This is an order!" Karl-franz's eyes had never been so cold.
Curt Helberg quickly realized that the Emperor had made up his mind. Marshal Rick opened his mouth, but the words of persuasion were stuck in his throat.
He was a soldier, and a soldier's duty was to obey orders. Marshal Rick then saluted the Emperor one last time and left with a team of Rick's guards.
The Emperor couldn't help but smile. At the very end, he could be proud to be able to force Helberg to give in once.
I heard the bell of the Black Fire Pass.
The war song of the Empire's knights shook the mountains and seas.
I am willing to be your sword and shield forever.
Even if the gate of heaven is no longer open to me.
The war hammer that symbolized the guardian of the Empire, Gail Maraz, was raised high in the sky. The Emperor pointed at the Green Skin army and gave his most inspiring speech. "Follow me, warriors of the Empire! Charge! "
Five hundred Rick's guards and a thousand Empire's knights all let out a deafening roar. "For Charlemagne, for the Empire!"
From the top of the hill, a torrent of steel rolled over.
At this time, the Empire's main army was close to being completely defeated. Only the Brunswick Honor Guards, the Kalonborg Swordsmen, and the Franz Guards were still guarding a few scattered positions. There was a massacre everywhere. The Green Skin army happily grabbed the shrimps from their bunkers and positions, tore them in half or chopped them into pieces, and watched them flee in fear. If it wasn't for the steam tanks maintaining the front line, the Empire would have been defeated long ago.
On the right wing, the Ivy army had also been defeated. Only the guards of Von Krasgers Castle and the knights of the Golden Fleece were still fighting under the banner of the Mad Count. The Mad Count had completely gone berserk at this time. His mouth burst out with a series of pig cries. The Rune Tooth in his hand, "Mourning of the Mothers", was one of the few divine weapons that could easily cut open the plate armor of the Black Orcs. He didn't even think of himself as a commander, but as a peerless warrior.
As expected, his existence attracted the attention of the Green Skin warlord, Wogaz Ironjaw. "WAAAGH!" The sound came from afar. More than five hundred Green Skin War Boars rushed to the guards of Von Krasgers Castle from the side and slaughtered the last few dozen people of this famous guard.
Another legendary troop would be wiped out today.
Then came the troublesome knights of the Golden Fleece. These two-handed greatsword knights tried to protect their Kurfürst, but under the pincer attack of the Black Orcs and the Green Skin War Boars, they could only be torn apart like rags and sent flying into the sky like rag dolls.
Wogaz Ironjaw soon saw his prey. He saw the shining Rune Tooth in Marius' hand. The Green Skin army knew very well that this sword was the symbol of the warlord. If they could snatch it, wouldn't it mean that they had become as great as Gobard?
Marius Leitendorf also saw Wogaz Ironjaw. He knew very well that the Green Skin warlord was coming for him.
"Huhuhuhu ~ It's just you and me, you green dog bastard." Marius chose to accept the challenge. The Kurfürst ordered the Knights of the Golden Fleece to scram. Waves of pig cries came from the Kurfürst's mouth. His momentum was at its peak.
"No! Only I, the mule, will bury you! " Wogaz Ironjaw also signaled to all the Black Orcs to shoot. I will personally take care of this mule!
"Before the end of today, there will be one standing and one falling!"
“Yeaaaaa！”
