Chapter 20 Silver Horned Cavalry
Countless orc tribes are scattered on the orc wasteland.
In order to survive in the wasteland where the strong prey on the weak, the structure of the orc society is that small tribes depend on the large sect leader tribes, and large tribes depend on the three orc tribes. Only the leaders of the three major tribes can be called the beast king.
Wars rarely occur between tribes affiliated with the same sect leader. Even if there are occasional disputes over interests and territory, they will often be resolved through the mediation of the clan leader of the large tribe. The conflicts between the large tribes will be mediated by the Beast King.
Although orcs are irritable, warlike, and conflicts between tribes are inevitable, death and injury are inevitable, due to the dependence between tribes, it is rare that the entire tribe will be destroyed and a certain beast tribe will be cut off.
But the sudden intrusion of human soldiers completely broke the tranquility of the orc tribe.
Since uprooting the jackal tribe, the Seventh Squadron broke into the depths of the Orc Wasteland, and within a few days it washed away four orc tribes in succession.
All orcs in the four orc tribes were slaughtered, and all the slightly valuable items in the tribe were looted. After leaving, the orc corpses and tribe camps were burned.
Even in the war between the two tribes, this kind of massacre of the elderly, young, women and children is a complete act of robbery.
But the Seventh Squadron, which was blinded by hatred, had no one from top to bottom except Alia.
The huge gains of looting further encouraged the madness and killing of the Seventh Squadron. The two attacks on the orc tribes no longer chose to attack at night, and directly broke into the orc camp and started killing.
The excessive confidence also made the Seventh Squadron pay the price. The werewolf tribe that was attacked this time was obviously larger than the ones in front. The werewolf leader who left behind the tribe was actually a level 5 orc warrior. In addition to the class leader, there was also a level 4 orc warrior.
When Arthur was entangled by the werewolf leader and Jose and Lund besieged another orc warrior, the battle of the Seventh Squadron was no longer as powerful as before. Although he finally won, two soldiers were killed and six or seven were injured in the battle with the orcs.
Without any supplement, the sacrifice of every soldier is a huge loss to the squadron.
The death of the soldiers also calmed down Arthur a little. For several days afterwards, the Seventh Squadron had no movement.
The information transmission between orc tribes was blocked again, and the sensational information that several tribes were eradicated by people in succession also quickly fermented in the past few days, and a panic began to spread in the orc border areas.
Some large orc sect tribes have received news from the small tribe below, speculating that a small human army broke into the orc wasteland and was robbing and slaughtering.
The patriarchs of most orc tribes threw the news aside. What kind of storm can a small human army break into the orc wasteland cause? It will sooner or later be wiped out when isolated without help. However, some large orc tribes sent reconnaissance teams or hunting teams to find traces of this human army.
What is certain is that the more the noise the Seventh Squadron makes, the more difficult the situation will be.
The Seventh Squadron appeared again a few days later, and was already three hundred miles away from the orc tribe that was attacked last time. The target was a large orc sect master's tribe.
This ranch has three teams of orc cavalry guards, and plus orc civilians grazing for the tribe, there are fifty or sixty orcs in the ranch.
This time, the Seventh Squadron understood the patrol rules of the orc cavalry, and used oil-added tactics to deter three teams of cavalry one by one, and then killed all the orcs in the ranch.
The Seventh Squadron really hit the hornet's nest this time. Not only did he directly find the sect leader tribe of the Orcs, but he also moved the three-eyed dog tribe that specializes in taming the silver-horned stag mounts for the Golden Lion Family.
The silver-horned buck is tall and mighty, a circle taller than the wildebeest commonly used by human cavalry. The six-branched silver horns on the head are not only huge, beautiful, but also extremely hard and sharp, comparable to the human level three spear.
The Silver Horned Buck is a special mount for the Silver Horned Cavalry, one of the three core cavalry regiments of the Golden Lion Family. On the battlefield, the Silver Horned Cavalry once caused great pain to the clan’s infantry and cavalry. The huge and sharp silver horns were lifted forward and could directly lift the heavy infantry of the human race, and the tall and strong body could collide with the heavy armored cavalry of the human race head-on.
This time, Arthur and his 7th squadron not only snatched more than 80 silver-horned bucks from one man and two riders, but also drove away hundreds of silver-horned bucks left on the ranch.
It can be said that Arthur and the others came here specifically for the Silverhorn Bucks this time.
The orcs and human cavalry have their own exclusive mounts, but many mounts are not universal. For example, the wolf cavalry's wolf, even after killing the wolf knight, the human army cannot tame the wolf and become its own mount. Similar to the horned antagonist who is accustomed to riding, because of its timidity and small size, the orcs cannot move after riding.
However, the Silver Horned Bucks are one of the few mounts that can be used by both races. Although the Silver Horned Bucks are tall and mighty, they are relatively docile in character. They can become battlefield mounts with a little training and do not exclude human soldiers from riding.
The Three-Eyed Dog Tribe dared not hide it. While reporting the Golden Lion Family to be guilty, they contacted the major orc tribes around to send troops to pursue this human army.
After Arthur succeeded, he didn't dare to stay for a moment and had already led people away.
Although Arthur and his 7th Squadron suffered some small losses in the last battle, the actual battles between life and death also allowed the troops and the soldiers to grow up quickly.
The orc tribe was successfully washed away several times in succession, and the Seventh Squadron alone had more than 30 pieces of equipment above level three.
Especially in the last werewolf tribe that was damaged by soldiers, the two-headed Lianjia in the werewolf leader's hand was a real level 5 equipment. Arthur threw it directly to Lunde without seeing it. In addition, there were more than a dozen equipment at level 3 and level 4. Although the equipment of the orcs was slightly rough, the power of the same level equipment was no less than that of the human warriors.
Now the minimum weapons in the hands of soldiers of the Seventh Squadron are Level 3, and Level 3 enchantment and Level 4 equipment account for half. From the perspective of weaponry and equipment, it is equivalent to Arthur leading an army composed of officers who are completely squadron leader level.
Although the individual strength of the warriors is still slightly lower, Arthur's previous teaching of the squadron soldiers played an unusual role in the battle with orcs. With advanced weapons, almost every soldier has the ability to challenge orc warriors across levels.
In the battles, an extremely fierce human squadron was tempered.
If the Seventh Squadron still has shortcomings, it is the relatively slow movement ability of the infantry. Once surrounded by orc cavalry on the plain, they may fall into a state of being destroyed.
This time, Arthur led the team to attack the Three-eyed Dog Tribe Ranch, which made up for the last shortcoming of the squadron.
The Silver-horned Bucks mount made the Seventh Squadron look like a tiger. One man and two riders ensured the squadron's continuous and fast marching ability. The Orc Cavalry can't catch up now even if they want to.
Arthur and his Seventh Cavalry Squadron have been elusive for a long time since then, coming and going like the wind, like a blood-colored whirlwind, sweeping through one orc tribe after another...
......
Compared to Arthur's swagger, Leon is much more low-key.
He was quietly digging the corners of the Golden Lion Family one by one, constantly strengthening his own power.
For the Golden Lion family of great power, the small tribes that Leon pried down now are just a small brick of the skyscraper.
