Chapter 413: Burning the Company Camp (Fourth Shift)
After returning to the front line, Ning Yuan immediately dispatched troops to prepare for a second attack on Shuangliao City.
Before the army arrived at the city of Shuangliao, he began to order people to transport a large amount of grain and grass materials to a place five kilometers away from the city of Shuangliao, and built a camp there, he was ready to fight a protracted war.
When the orc commander of Shuangliao City stood at the head of the city and looked at the endless convoy in the distance, his mood suddenly became very heavy.
The enemy had transported so much grain and grass over that it was obvious that they were preparing for a long siege of Shuangliao City.
When the siege began, they would definitely cut off the grain routes of Shuangliao City. Although a lot of food has been hoarded in Shuangliao City, how long it can last, the orc commander has no bottom in his heart.
Just as the first commander was grim, a leopard leader with the mark of a slave on his face came to his side.
"Dashuai, looking at the enemy's posture, they are preparing to besiege Shuangliao City for a long time, we must prepare as soon as possible."
Glancing at his right-hand man, the orc commander shook his head and said, "Recently, a batch of food was brought from the royal city, and with the previous reserves, we can hold out for at least half a year, but now I am very worried that we won't be able to hold out for half a year."
How long do you think we can hold out with the existing forces in the city? ”
Leopard thought for a moment and replied, "Great Shuai, I don't think you need to worry about whether we will be able to hold out for half a year, but you should be worried about whether the Beastmaster will be able to transport food to us in time once the grain transportation channel is blocked by the enemy." ”
"Hey, since the loss of the Empire's wolf cavalry legion, we no longer have the ability to contain the enemy's cavalry regiment, if the enemy wants to break through Shuangliao City this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Beastmaster to deliver food in time.
It's uneven, you've always had a lot of ideas, do you have any good ideas? ”
Because he was so worried that he couldn't do it anymore, the orc commander took the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and put the last bit of hope on his own right-hand men.
"Sir, I can't think of any good way to transport grain and grass, but now I suddenly think of a good way to severely damage the enemy's morale, but it's a bit too risky." Leopard replied.
"Don't take risks or not, you talk about it first." Hearing that the leopard had a way, the orc commander's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Marshal, look at the enemy's camp defense, although there is an elven archer cavalry legion that has been defending our owl legion, the defense power of other parts of the camp is very limited.
You see there, there, and there, just a few ordinary Terran soldiers.
If we can lure that elven cavalry legion away, we'll have a chance to storm the enemy's camp and burn their food and grass with a fire.
The enemy has been hoarding grain and grass for more than half a month, and if we burn it down, their morale will be greatly damaged.
Moreover, if they want to remobilize grain and grass from the rear, it will inevitably take more time, so that we can buy some more precious time to ask for help from the royal city.
It's just that this plan is a bit risky, and the Owl Legion that sneaks out of the city may suffer a lot of losses. ”
Leopard Buping explained the plan he thought of to the other party in detail, and then began to quietly wait for the other party's decision.
After listening to the leopard's plan, the orc commander's face was cloudy, and after a fierce mental struggle, he suddenly patted the leopard's shoulder with his hand, and said solemnly: "Instead of waiting for death in the city, it is better to fight."
It's not fair, I can't trust anyone else, I believe you.
In a moment, I will let the Owl Legion lure away the defending Elven Archers, and then you will take 5,000 warriors to raid the opponent's camp, and as long as you can successfully burn this camp, I will promote you to the rank of Captain. ”
"Please rest assured, the uneven will complete the task, if you can't burn the enemy's grain and grass, the uneven will not come back, and I hope the marshal can sprinkle a glass of thin wine for me and send the uneven last journey."
Seeing that the orc commander valued himself so much, Leopard Buping immediately knelt down on one knee and made a military order.
......
Just as the convoy of the Condor Army was transporting bags of grain into the camp, countless owl warriors suddenly flew out of Shuangliao City, and they rushed to the camp of the Condor Army overwhelmingly.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack ,......。"
As the alarm sounded, the elven archers guarding the camp immediately met them, and as soon as the enemy came into range, they fired a volley of arrows.
Although the elven archers rained down a large number of owl warriors, they were unable to intercept the enemy despite the desperate charge of the owl warriors, regardless of casualties.
"It's not good, don't let them get close to the granary, chase me."
After discovering that the target of the owl army was the granary located in the camp, the elven archers panicked, and they desperately urged the war horses to chase after them.
After discovering the presence of a large number of human infantry in the camp, the army of owls did not choose to land. They suddenly turned a corner and flew in the other direction, and the elven archers followed.
Seeing that the elven archers were successfully lured open, the gate of Shuangliao City suddenly opened, and then an orc army composed of leopards and werewolves rushed out.
Led by Leopard Buping, this orc legion rushed directly to the camp of the Condor Army.
Seeing that the enemy wanted to attack the camp, the Terran infantry in the camp immediately stood by and formed a dense defensive line in front of the orc legion.
Soon, the orc legion rushed in front of the Terran army, and under the leadership of the leopard Buping, they quickly broke through the enemy's formation.
"Don't fall in love with the war, go and set fires everywhere, and after setting the fire, find a way to escape by yourself."
After entering the camp, the leopard Buping took out the fire fold and shouted loudly.
With the advantage of speed, the leopard warriors and werewolf warriors scurried around the camp, and smoke soon billowed from everywhere they passed.
By the time the elven archers who were chasing the Owl Legion found out they had been fooled and rushed back, the fire had become uncontrollable.
Smoke billowed everywhere, tongues of fire everywhere, and all the granaries and tents were set on fire.
Looking at the camp that had turned into a sea of fire, the commander of the elven archers was not in the mood to chase down the orcs who fled after setting fire to them.
His eyes were full of anger, and after a long sigh, he had no choice but to withdraw his troops.
