Chapter 67: The first battle with double-digit casualties [Please subscribe!!]
“It’s started! It’s started!”
“I swear, this battle won’t last more than ten minutes.”
The magicians cheered.
With their long lives, they were very interested in everything that could arouse their interest.
“There are too many enemies. If we want to defeat these orcs, I am afraid there may be some casualties in this battle.”
At the rear artillery position, Gu Yuan was looking at the situation of the orc army with a telescope.
The 500,000 orcs charged together, and the scene was extremely shocking. However, the position of the Los Kingdom was chosen on a hillside. To rush up this hillside, there was only an open low-lying area below, which was like the entrance of a gourd.
The army of the Los Kingdom only needed to guard this gap, and the orc army would not be able to cause damage to the army of the Los Kingdom. The only thing to worry about was the orc air force and the griffin cavalry. The number of up to 50,000 was too much.
“Artillery ready! Aim at the orc army and fire!”
During this period, military supplies have been delivered one after another, including 60 155mm artillery and 40 T34 tanks.
“boom!”
“Boom!”
Sixty 155mm artillery fired furiously, and shells instantly fell into the charging orc army.
“Ah!!”
One after another, the shells exploded in the dense formation of the orc army, and their formation was instantly destroyed. Countless orcs screamed and were blown into the air.
When they fell, only the broken limbs were left.
“Damn it! How could these humans have such an attack! Did they set up a magic attack array?!”
Londangor saw that his orc army was being attacked from a distance, and he slammed the armrest of his seat.
At this time, the griffin army in the sky arrived!
“”Fire!” an officer yelled, and all of a sudden, the anti-aircraft machine guns set up on the entire battlefield roared towards the sky!
Flames spurted out from the muzzles, and huge caliber bullets were fired into the sky one by one.
“”Ahhhhh!”
The Orc Griffin Legion howled from the sky as it charged, but they seemed to have hit an invisible barrier in the air. They could not see how the enemy attacked, but could only hear a loud noise. Then they saw the bodies of their companions being torn apart in an instant, with blood and feathers floating in the air like scattered flowers.
Under pressure, some of the MG42 general-purpose machine guns also turned their muzzles and began shooting at the countless Griffin Cavalry in the sky.
Suddenly, the Griffin Cavalry in the sky suffered a devastating blow!
“”Javelins! You can’t charge at close range, drop your javelins!”
A commander of the orc griffin cavalry screamed angrily, and the constant deaths of his companions around him made him extremely furious.
The next moment, a 14.5mm caliber bullet instantly hit his head, and his bird head exploded like a watermelon.
However, his words also reminded the other griffin cavalry. They withstood the pressure and dropped their few javelins as their companions kept dying around them.
Most of the javelins that fell from the sky suddenly penetrated deep into the ground, and only a few hurt the Los soldiers in the trenches.
But this was also the first time that their entire legion had caused damage to the soldiers of the Los Kingdom.
“Are all these humans equipped with magic weapons? How could they launch such a powerful and intensive attack?”
Longdangor looked at the griffin cavalry falling in the sky in the distance. He could no longer bear it and shouted at an orc wizard behind him:”Prepare the formation!”
“Your Majesty, but…..”
The orc wizard was stunned. He wanted to say something, but looking at the furious Longdangor, he swallowed his saliva and still didn’t say anything. He could only go down to prepare.
Before leaving, he glanced at the griffin cavalry in the sky and said to himself,”I’m sorry.”
Longdangor asked him to launch a long-range attack magic circle composed of 300-meter orc wizards.
Once the attack was launched, it might also involve the griffin cavalry above the human position.
But now Longdangor was furious and wanted to launch the attack without caring about anything!
Now Longdangor had only one idea in his mind, that was to completely crush the humans on the hill ahead!
“Go! Go!”
“Kill these humans!!”
An orc heavy infantryman, wrapped in iron armor, holding a long-handled axe in his hand, roared and rushed towards the position of the Los Kingdom.
But the next moment, his iron armor instantly broke into pieces, and countless blood gushed out.
His body fell.
He was not an exception. Beside him, countless orc heavy infantrymen were instantly harvested by the powerful firepower of the MG42 general-purpose machine gun.
“These damn orcs!”
A machine gunner gritted his teeth, controlling the MG42 to burst out powerful firepower, and the crosshairs kept aiming at the densely packed orc infantry.
With a sweep, a large number of orc heavy infantry were killed like wheat.
“”Fire!”
A platoon leader gave the order, and the mortar loaded with shells fired instantly.
More than a dozen Los soldiers around immediately covered their ears.
“Bang! Bang, bang, bang!”
The shells instantly fell into the extremely dense orc heavy infantry below.
“”Boom boom boom!”
Explosions sounded, and countless orc heavy infantry were blown into the sky, and their bodies fell to the ground in pieces.
Swoosh!
A javelin fell from the sky and instantly penetrated the breastplate of a Los soldier, nailing him to the ground.
A griffin cavalryman passed by in the sky, but the next moment a 14.5mm bullet instantly pierced him and his mount, the griffin.
The bodies fell from the sky.
In the orc army behind, a huge magic circle presided over by three hundred wizards instantly opened up, and the fiery red magic circle exuded a scorching breath.
“”Release them!”
The next moment, accompanied by the furious roar of the orc emperor Longdangor, more than ten fireballs with a diameter of one meter formed on the magic circle, and then instantly swept into the sky!
Dragging a long red tail in the air, it fell into the position of the Los Kingdom on the top of the mountain like a flying giant red tadpole.
Several of the more than ten fireballs hit the griffin cavalry who were still in the sky. They screamed and were burned, falling with flames all over their bodies.
“”Ah!”
The rest of the fireballs fell on the battlefield, exploding instantly, with flames splashing everywhere. One of the huge fireballs fell into a trench.
Seven or eight Los soldiers in the trench were instantly covered in flames and fell to the ground screaming.
This was the first battle in which the Los Kingdom army had suffered more than double-digit casualties since its establishment.
