When the orc warriors and the orc warriors came into close combat, the battle also entered a stalemate.

No matter how simple the orc's equipment at this time is, it can't be ignored that they have a strong combat ability, although they only have short sticks and stone axes as weapons in their hands, but when these weapons are knocked out by the orc warriors with brute force, even the half-orcs wearing a layer of cotton shock absorber belt inside can't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Of course, in general, the 3,000 orc warriors still firmly guarded the frontal defense line, due to the appearance of the stake, the half-orcs and orcs both lost the ability to charge at the same time, in this case, the test is the combat skills and equipment of both sides, and no matter from which point of view, the half-orcs have a strong enough advantage.

And at this time, the half-orcs judged from the system, although they have the ability to attack from a distance, which is very similar to the raiders, but because the half-orc warriors are wearing heavy armor, and the weapons they are equipped with are double-edged giant axes specially used to break armor, in terms of close combat, they belong to the same high-level hoplites as the so-called English foot knights, two-handed swordsmen, and the Sultan Janissake, and they are all specially designed to deal with light armored infantry. These two-handed armed hoplites, which generally have armor-piercing properties, can deal with light infantry with 2 or even 3 times more combat effectiveness than sword and shield hoplites, and when resisting cavalry charges, this kind of infantry can also launch a counter-charge that can be better than sword and shield infantry that uses shield walls to resist.

Although the orc army has many heavy infantry, in general, the defense of these heavy infantry is extremely low, as long as it is cut by these orc warriors with double-edged giant axes, it is estimated that there is no hope of survival, so let alone those orc light infantry, if the half-orc warrior wields well, then it is not a problem for them to cut down two orc light infantry with one blow.

At this time, in the stake area of about 50 paces, although in just a few minutes, the mainland was covered with many severed arms and stumps, and the blood had already dyed the front row of wooden stakes red, but most of these blood and corpses belonged to the orc army, and those half-orc corpses like iron cans were left with more than 200 corpses, and most of these corpses were dragged back by the half-orc warriors who were ready to join the front line in the rear, because these half-orcs were under the influence of the culture of the human kingdom for more than half a year, I learned what it means to respect the corpses and equipment of the war dead.

After seeing that the front office was blocked, the orc side immediately pulled the line apart, taking advantage of its numbers, and began to circle the two flanks of Sun Lin's front army, and made contact with 2,000 hoplite sergeants, and judging from the positioning of the orcs' movements, it is estimated that it will not be long before these orcs will open the line again and attack the 1,000 hook and sickle soldiers in the rear, but before that, these orc warriors will be subjected to fierce long-range blows from the Yoman longbowmen.

"Hmm............... It still needs to hold out for half an hour, but it seems that those heavily armored sergeants seem to be out of order after 10 minutes of fighting, but in the end, it is very normal, although the equipment is very good, but the spearmen are spearmen after all, and the formation of 1000 people is indeed a little too weak............... Pass it on! The 1st and 2nd teams of heavy swordsmen went to support the left flank, and the 3rd and 4th teams of heavy swordsmen went to support the right flank, and those orcs must not be allowed to take a step forward! ”

"Yes!" As time passed, another unwanted but very likely problem that Sun Lin had anticipated arose, in order to ensure that the 7,000 Yoman longbowmen and a group of scorpion crossbows and heavy trebuchets could inflict maximum damage to the orc army in the position, and would not hurt their own soldiers in the process of firing, so the heavy sergeants did pull a little too far in the formation, and this hidden danger was revealed in the continuation of the battle.

Due to the large size of the formation, the heavily armored sergeants guarding the flanks had to stretch their shield walls, which made the formation relatively weak, only 3 rows thick. Initially, although the charge of the orc warriors was very powerful, due to the extremely good defensive and stable nature of the kite-shaped shield, the orcs who rushed forward not only did not break through the line of the heavy sergeants, but were also stabbed by the spears in the hands of the heavy sergeants, causing a lot of unnecessary trouble.

But in the following battle, because the combination of spear and shield is mainly used to defend against enemy cavalry, rather than to engage in hand-to-hand combat with soldiers, so although the spear sergeant is very well-equipped, can kill orc soldiers to a large extent, and protect his own life, but with the passage of physical strength, these heavy sergeants have become more and more inadequate, and no matter how you compare, the physical strength of an ordinary human is not comparable to the physical strength of an orc or half-orc, let alone the warriors on both sides.

Now there are more and more heavily armored sergeants who have been killed by the orc warriors who exploited the loopholes due to physical exhaustion, of course, the luckier ones are replaced by the comrades behind them, but at this time, the heavy sergeants and Sun Lin, who commanded from afar, have found a problem, that is, although the way of taking turns used by the heavy sergeants can reduce the consumption of physical strength, but because the heavy sergeants guarding the formation are too few, they take turns to change those people, and there is not much effect at all. Therefore, Sun Lin had no choice but to press up part of the heavily armed swordsmen to fill the broken wings that had been rushed by the orc warriors.

With the addition of the heavy swordsmen, the problem of the two wings was finally temporarily solved, and these powerful heavy infantry may not be as good as those orc warriors in terms of attack power, but they are much more skilled than the orc warriors in terms of agility and combat skills. A total of more than 1,000 heavy sergeants slowly retreated to the rear to rest under the cover of the heavy swordsmen, waiting for the order to join the battlefield.

However, at the same time as the two wings stabilized again, the orc warriors finally made a detour to the rear after being blocked by tens of thousands of arrows, and engaged the hook and sickle soldiers guarding the rear stake area.
