Chapter 47: The Rise of the King
Updated: 2012-04-04
The more than 10,000 troops of Karu's army began to have a fierce attack, which did put huge pressure on Xiao Yu's side. Several times, they even occupied a small area on the top of the city under the leadership of the fighters, but under the fierce attack of the orc infantry, they were beaten back again and again.
Because of the excessive killing of people, all the orc infantrymen were no longer green skin, but all turned blood-red, and their whole bodies were basically stained with blood.
The human infantry did not seem to have performed well in this battle. After all, compared with the strength of the orc infantry, their lethality seemed a bit insignificant.
However, the unique blocking skills of human infantry actually played a huge role. First, they blocked the powerful crossbows shot from behind for the orc infantry and elves archers behind countless times. Second, they used their bodies and shields to protect the enemies rushing towards the elves archers countless times. Third, when the Carru soldiers captured the city and occupied the position several times, they formed a small square formation to block the continued attack of these Carru soldiers.
Each type of army is useful. Human infantry seems to be less powerful than orcs, but the extremely meticulous defense is not comparable to orcs.
Orc infantry is used to rush forward and kill, while human infantry is used to form formations to resist and protect the troops behind.
If the clan infantry develops to form a square formation, it can also play a huge role like Karu's heavy infantry. Now, because their armor is only first-level armor, it still cannot meet the standards of heavy infantry, but in the future, they can also become heavy infantry units.
The elves archers were still shining in this battle to defend the city. With Tyrande's powerful attack aura, they performed even better, shooting countless enemies.
They are still champions when it comes to killing people.
The Dwarf Musketeers performed very well this time. Although they did not seem to kill as many enemies as the Elf Archers, the huge role they played in suppressing the mage is absolutely indispensable.
It is precisely because of them that the opponent's magicians are unable to exert their power. Otherwise, the magicians can definitely cause huge damage to the orc infantry. It can be said that it is they who guaranteed the safety and lethality of the orc infantry.
This time, the elf hunters rode a leopard and ran back and forth on the city wall, killing the enemy in time, and mobility assistance everywhere also played a huge role, assisting the orc infantry to defend the position on the city.
All the soldiers performed well, but the best one was actually Xiao Yu's correct command and correct cooperation with the troops, so he achieved such a victory.
At this time, the opponent had no catapult cart and crossbow cart, so Xiao Yu could use all the catapult carts against the infantry below.
Ten catapults fired together, which was definitely similar to a large magic. After rumbling down, a group of people died immediately.
The city was unable to be captured for a long time and the city gate could not be broken. At this time, the Karu army had already suffered more than 15,000 casualties. Although there were more than 4,000 left, they were psychologically exhausted and difficult to fight.
The continuous display of heavy weapons on Xiao Yu's side also made them gradually feel like retreating. The money, beauty and glory that was encouraged by Karu had already dissipated like a bubble at this moment.
At this time of the war, there was no big suspense. Xiao Yu had already resisted the most difficult attack and basically destroyed the opponent's heavy weapons. They would never have the possibility of attacking the city again. If they continue to attack now, they can only die continuously.
"Karu, why are you running? Your army is still here, but you are going to run away? Are you still a fucking man?" At this moment, Xiao Yu on the top of the city suddenly shouted loudly.
Originally, the entire Kalu army had no fighting spirit. When Xiao Yu shouted, everyone turned around and looked at it. At this time, Kalu's figure was indeed gone on Kalu's carriage.
Since the beginning of the war, Karu has been standing in the carriage and watching the battle, but now, Karu has suddenly disappeared, obviously getting into the carriage and preparing to escape.
When Karu's army heard Xiao Yu's shouting, he saw that Karu was no longer in the carriage. Everyone was immediately panicked, and the last trace of fighting spirit was completely lost. He turned around and ran away.
In fact, Kalu did not escape. On the contrary, he actually entered the carriage and wore armor, preparing to fight Xiao Yu to the death.
Because he had no way back, he had to go back in battle himself, preparing to boost the soldiers' final morale, hoping to have a chance to defeat Xiao Yu's army at the last moment.
However, Xiao Yu had very sharp eyes. Seeing that Karu was no longer in the carriage, he immediately shouted that Karu had escaped. This sentence was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The Karu soldiers, who were already on the verge of collapse, immediately collapsed.
When Karu walked out of the carriage again, the situation had completely lost control and he no longer had the ability to gather these retreating troops.
The so-called defeat is like a mountain of defeat. In a big situation, it is already defeated. Just a little triggering factor can lead to the final failure.
"Chasing." Xiao Yu, who was on the top of the city, just said two words lightly.
This time is different from last time. After Karu's army retreated last time, it still maintained its formation and had not completely retreated. Therefore, once Xiao Yu sent troops to attack, it would cause great losses. However, this time, Karu's 20,000 army died nearly 16,000, and the remaining more than 4,000 people would definitely have a complete collapse in morale, so he could pursue it in the back.
After receiving Xiao Yu's order, everyone immediately went down the city, with orc infantry in front, elves hunters guerrilla on both wings, and other musketeers and elves archers following behind, chasing the collapsed Karu army.
The beast soldiers also carried several blade chariots and fired a moon blade from time to time, causing further damage to these soldiers.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Karu looked at the retreating army and shouted like a madman.
"Young master, let's go. Even if you are punished by Lord Lord, it's better than dying here. Let's talk about it carefully when you go back. Maybe Lord Lord Lord will not punish you severely, but if you still stay here, we will definitely die." The dog-headed military advisor held Karu's hand and persuaded with tears.
Kalu looked at the dispersed army and Xiao Yu's troops chasing behind him. His eyes were red and his teeth were clenched, almost like he was eating people.
"Let's go." In the end, Karu chose to escape.
Even if he doesn't return to his territory, he can survive only by escaping. Karu originally thought he had the courage, but when he watched the orc infantry chase closer and closer, and as the blade chariot cut the man in half, he still felt his hands trembling.
A noble man like him can kill others normally because he is protected by a large army and never falls into danger, nor does he feel like he is truly facing death.
At this moment, he looked at the beast soldiers who were gradually chasing, and then he realized what fear was.
The carriage turned around and began to run. His carriage was a high-end product. After the wind-type magic circle portrayed by the magician, it ran quickly and smoothly, so it quickly escaped far away.
Xiao Yu was relying on the orc infantry to chase faster, and there were not many cavalrymen, so it was difficult to catch up with Kalu. However, Xiao Yu did not think that he had to kill Kalu here.
After going back this time, even if Karu is alive, he may not have a good life.
After defeating Kalu's army attack this time, Kalu's territory could no longer send people to attack. Xiao Yu would get a chance to recuperate, continue to grow and grow, and gradually lead the Lion King to prosperity.
Xiao Yu's orc infantry chased for more than ten miles and killed more than a thousand Karu's troops. Although Karu's army faced several times the force of its own, it had no intention of counterattacking and was only concerned about fleeing in panic.
Seeing that the pursuit was almost over, Xiao Yu ordered the pursuit to stop. Looking at the Karu army in front of him, a smile appeared on Xiao Yu's face.
The victory of this battle also laid the foundation for his future struggle to dominate the world. From then on, his Lion King leader will no longer be a small territory that anyone can bully. In the future, this place will become a kingdom, and then continue to expand around and unify the world with the ultimate goal.
At this time, the setting sun was setting, and the afterglow shone on Xiao Yu's body, pulling out a long figure.
Beside him, the beast soldiers, the elves archers, and the dwarf musketeers, combined with his figure, formed a unique picture of the scenery.
A long time later, a famous painter painted the picture, named "The Rise of the King".
