Chapter 265: War of the orcs ns (1)
The ground shook and trembles as the horde of Orcs from Bor n is approaching the fortress. Arial know there is no need for long speech so he just yell
''WE! WILL! WIN!'' It is simple but it echoes his confidence
The Orc echoed the cheer
''WE WILL WIN!''
''WE WILL WIN!''
''WE WILL WIN!''
Bor Orc horde moved in a discipline formation, marching with spears.
The Legion of Leaf is put under Vmina orders. Arial has to acknowledge that the Legion of Leaf is proficient in magic, healing and destructive magic.
Arial found out that Vmina knew some of the members of the Legions so he put them under Vmina.
And it seems they don''t have anyints or dissatisfaction so Arial deemed it a wise choice on his part.
It is better they fought alongside someone they know.
''TIGHTEN YOUR FORMATION!'' Arial yelled and the Orc obey. They have seen Arial prowess. And they respect his strength.
Everyone under him is loyal to him. Instead of fearing therge army of Bor they put their faith in their reliablemander.
No fear! No fear! Kill and win! There will be no retreating!
This is what Arial always said on the barrack. Anyone who he catches running from the battlefield will be struck by his sword and no one wants that.
There is no fear, only honor in their heart.
They believed they would surely gain an entrance to the Great Feast of the Horned God if they die in this battle.
There is nothing to be regretted about. Orcs live. Orcs die. And nature soothe. Such is the way of the Orcs.
The Horde keeps marching. Arial on the other hand is grinning.
''LET US GO INTO BATTLE'' Arial yelled as he swings his ive, pointing it at the horde.
''SPEAR DIVISON'' and from the walls a million spear is thrown out to the horde. Hundred thousand either die or injured.
Then the arrow division of Bor loosen their arrows and one of Arial Ratarai remarked looking at the amount of arrows flying up in the air
''Itblotted the sun'' the Orc said trembling.
Arial smile and said, yelling
''GOOD! THEN WE SHALL HAVE OUR BATTLE IN THE SHADE! HAHAHA!''
Some other Orcs follow Arial andughed maniacally, ignoring the danger
''TORTOISE'' Arial then ordered as the arrow ising down to rain down on his troops.
Arial on the other hand just blow all the arrow around him using his Dragon Palm with his left hand and the arrow were all deflected by the internal energy barrier.
They are approaching swiftly to the Horde and after they arrived at a considerable distance, and managing to endure the volley of the spear throwing, and the barrage of arrows, Arial yelled to his men, to rally them to prepare to engage the enemy.
''This is it'' he thought as his troop is nearing the Horde.
''CHARGE'' he yelled after he decided this is the time to attack. They collided with the massive spearmen.
Arial ive obliterated the first line. While his troops are being stabbed by the spears and sh down by des and swords.
Once again Arial is rampaging to create an opening for his troops and this creates a panic on the enemy side.
The enemy is already overwhelmed enough trying to stop the advance of Arial division when another shocke to them.
None couldpare the shock they are feeling right now when from the South Gate about a hundred thousand of Koer forces joined Arial battle and began Arial formation of rolling up the line.
''STRENGHTEN THE RIGHT FLANK'' Arial yelled while shing the Orcs.
Rolling up the line is Arial usual formation when he is in a war.
The strength of the army is concentrated on the right nk which the cavalry division would attempt to break the enemy left nk.
When the left nk is open, the cavalry can attack from the rear.
Vmina on the other hand is fighting on the east side of the battlefield with another division led by Haer Bor.
The sky run ck around that area and then thunder can be heard attacking Bor horde. She has started, Arial mused.
Arial finally knows why High Elven is very valued in the Dark Land.
This is one of Vmina weather maniption magic. It attacks the enemy of the caster with lightning from the sky.
The only limits are the caster strength and mana. And since High Elven has infinite reserve of mana, the only limit is Vmina strength
''CONCENTRATE THE ATTACK'' Arial ordered and the Orc once again reform the scattered lines and focus their attack.
He is a part of the infantry division this time, so he decided to weaken the center so that the left nk have no choice but to strengthen the center.
The cavalry is led by Fera and Arial acknowledge Fera ability as a leader. Legion of Leaf on Vmina side is using healing magic and attacking magic on the Orcs.
The attacking and the battle grew longer.
A stalemate in the battlefield while Arial and Vmina is advancing their troops and Koer is in the rear to make sure if the front line fails he can prevent the enemies from breaching the forts.
Arial and Vmina does not just have to contend with enemies'' attack but also the barrage of arrows from the fortress that every a few minutes wouldunch themselves killing enemies andrade alike.
Though Arial and Vmina troop is safe.
He has ordered the archer division to shoot every two minutes and so every two minutes his troop would put up Tortoise formation so not many died under friendly fire.
Then one of Bor Orc horde tried to charge and open Arial line.
''STONEWALL'' Arial order.
Quickly the Orc maneuver themselves into the formation and the enemies only collide with a strong defending formation and the charge is then repelled easily as Arial troops stabbed around the slits of the shields with spears.
Arial is satisfied with the flexibility of the Orcs in this battle.
''ATTACK HARDER. WE HAVE SUPERIOR NUMBER!'' Bor is heard yelling and then the attack intensified.
Arial scoffed. If you think numbers win you a war, then you are mistaken. It is merely a factor not the cause.
''REFORM THE LINES!'' Arial order and they reform the lines.
''WEDGE FORMATION'' Arial yelled.
''THE LINE NEED TO BE PIERCED THROUGH! PUSH HARDER!'' Arial in on the front ordering his troop in the back, while he rushed to the Bor Orc horde and smashes into the center of the battle.
Once there, he began swinging his ive and carnage ensues. Limbs are flying around and heads is rolling.
Sounds of yelling and screaming of pain filled the battlefield as Arial troop behind him follow theirmander bravely into the heat of battle.
They began hacking the remaining Orc and by the hour the lines are thinned and Arial could see Bor is standing on horseback ordering his troops.
But quickly the lines are reinforced again.
Fera cavalry on the other hand has manage to destroy the left nk but Arial quickly order them back behind the wedge formation.
From what he could see and sense, to attack it from the rear right now would decimate his cavalry.
''He must not rush'' he thought as he restrained his impulsive side
He will wait for Vmina to finish her enemies and then rejoin with the Legion. Then he can strike a decisive blow for Koer into Bor forces.
This is arge scale battle unprecedented in Arial experience and he need to watch everything with calmness.
Just rushing and killing all the front line will not work in such battle. He needs an advantage.
The arrows are still shooting all over the battlefield
Thousands of Orcs corpse is lying around on the battlefield, some trampled by the cavalry as their body meshed with the soils and the green grass is now all crimson red.
Corpses fill with arrows is amon view in the battlefield but this is different. Mountain of corpse is left on Arial wake as he moved forward with that ive, killing anyone in his path.
And Arial can still afford to remain calm.
The initial shock of seeing that their numbers is more than Bor forces expected must have make him issues his order slower thus making Arial forces to be able to push them instead of them being pushed.
The enemy lines are crumbling
Then suddenly a shadow envelops the area and the Orcs looked upward. Then someone yelled, his eyes looking dreadfully at the sky
''WHAT IS THAT?'' while pointing at the sky.
