Chapter 805: Attacking the town
The tribal soldiers on the battlefield were quickly repulsed, and the number of dead and wounded increased tremendously.
With the massive deaths and injuries, plus the fact that the leaders of the Orcs and Trolls didn't come out to stabilize the situation, the tribal soldiers began to appear to be massively fleeing.
The first to flee was not the orcs whose leader was injured, nor the trolls, but the goblins, who realized that the situation was not right and immediately fled with their beloved war equipment.
The second to flee was the trolls, because they had too many dead and wounded.
After the Goblins and Trolls fled, the Orcs could not sit still, they also began to massively flee, as for the hot-tempered Dwarves, they are also fleeing, the other three races have fled, they still play a hammer.
"Kill them all, hahaha."
The imperial soldiers formed a battle formation and surrounded and killed the tribal army that couldn't escape in time on the war, the battle that was scorching before was a one-sided massacre at this moment.
Su Xiao mixed in the crowd, from time to time killing a tribal army, he was surprised to find that the life value recovered by the natural ability 'Spirit Devourer' after killing the enemy was very special, for every enemy army he killed, he could probably recover 13 to 15 points of life value and mana value, the reason he could recover this amount of life value was because the mana value increased by the Spirit Devourer had reached the 200 points cap, and the effect of killing the enemy to recover was increased by 50%.
The life value recovered through the Spirit Eater was able to slowly heal Su Xiao's injuries, this kind of healing was slow, but it was more thorough than the recovery from potions.
When Su Xiao killed a dozen or so enemy soldiers, the chest tightness disappeared and his breathing was obviously much smoother.
Discovering this, Su Xiao killed even more vigorously, and in no time, he beheaded dozens of tribal troops.
Now the battlefield and before do not use, want to kill tribal army to rely on luck, tribal army in mass routing, the imperial army chase.
The miserable screams of rushing and killing were mixed together, a contractee of the Apocalypse Paradise was full of despair, the Imperial Army beside him was too much.
After only a few minutes, the Apocalypse Paradise indentured servant ran out of mana, he was engulfed by the tide of people, if the Imperial side lost the battle, the Reincarnation Paradise indentured servants would not be any better.
The pursuit began, the Imperial Army left a small group of troops to hold the fortress while the rest of the soldiers pursued the Horde Army.
Su Xiao is in the pursuit team, as long as the pursuit does not end, the war will not end, as for going to redeem the [Sacred Oak Tree Branch], for the time being, do not have to think about it, as soon as the war started, the Reincarnation Paradise prompted the Merit Exchange Store to close, and there is a condition for it to open again, which is that the Imperial Army has successfully stationed in the Fortress of the Black Earth.
Before the battle Su Xiao observed the situation of the black earth fortress, the fortress interior was badly damaged, and before and after the stone slope and magma slope need to be cleaned up, and to open up the fortress inside the blocked channel, the inner channel can let the imperial army easily enter the fortress, so in the horde army after the capture of the fortress, the dozens of inner channel sealed.
Before all this was taken care of, the Imperial Army was not stationed in the Black Earth Fortress, and it would take at least 1 to 2 days to try to take care of all this.
In other words, it would take at least 1 to 2 days until the Merit Shop opened, so Su Xiao was not in a hurry, it was useless to rush.
...
Three hours later.
An imperial army that had killed within the Horde Alliance's territory marched neatly, the same army that had fought on the Black Earth Fortress earlier.
It sounded like the three-hour pursuit was already very deep into the Horde's territory, but in actuality it wasn't, this army wasn't trying to go deep into the Horde's territory, but rather cleaning up the Horde's army that had collapsed into small groups around the Black Earth Fortress.
An Imperial officer rode in front of the army on a warhorse, his name was Russell, he had always been a champion of Carlos, a powerful member of the Iron Blood Legion.
After Carlos took the throne, Russell, who was not weak and had great commanding skills, was promoted a few ranks in a row, before, he was not reused because of his bad origin, fortunately, the new head of the legion, Carlos, didn't care about his origin, he only looked at his ability.
"Reporting to Commander Russell, a town under the rule of the Horde Alliance has been spotted ahead."
A scout knelt on one knee in front of Russell's warhorse with a respectful expression.
"Population. "
Russell didn't say much, and he didn't smile, ironic, serious, thin and cold was the first impression he gave.
"Probably around 20,000 to 40,000 people, due to time constraints, my subordinates are unable to learn too specific information."
That scout swallowed his saliva.
"Men, execute him."
Russell's tone was flat, and the scout froze.
"Lord Russell spare his life, my subordinate is really ..."
The scout's face was white with fear.
"Shut up."
As soon as Russell's words fell, a male wood elf clan rushed out behind him, this male wood elf was extremely fast, without waiting for the scout to react, the short sword in his hand had already chopped down, and a human head flew up.
"Marquis Mark that old thing is really a waste, the tribe's scouts have infiltrated the scout unit, every time Lord Carlos wants to deal with the scouts, that old thing looks forward and backward."
Russell didn't even look at the scout's corpse, as a member of the scout force guarding the Black Earth Fortress, he wasn't even clear about the situation of the town near the Black Earth Fortress, this is the basic quality of a scout, even if he wasn't a scout, this kind of dereliction of duty during wartime would require him to lose his head.
The imperial army began to march towards the town, Su Xiao mixed in the imperial army, not long after, a sizeable town appeared in his line of sight.
Whoosh~
The sound of breaking air came, an orb smashed in a parabola towards the Imperial Army, it was a Goblin Bomb.
Boom!
Fire splashed everywhere, a large part of the Imperial Army was blown to pieces, and a short leg wrapped in rotten cloth flew near Su Xiao.
"All troops charge."
The Imperial Army rushed towards the tribal town with great vigor, and the remnants of the tribal army near the town immediately retreated inside the town.
The Imperial Army was not far from the town, in a few minutes, a large number of Imperial Army rushed into the town and started to fight in the alleyway with the remnants of the Tribal Army inside the town.
The screams from the town, That is the civilians living in the town, including orcs, goblins, etc., mostly women, tribal alliance, teenagers or adult males have been forcibly recruited to the army.
When Su Xiao entered the town with the army, the battle had already subsided, and the one that attacked the imperial army before was a small group of tribal army.
Su Xiao walked in the town, did not see civilians on the streets, civilians are hidden behind the windows, look numb looking at the streets of the imperial army, most of the civilian houses in this town are piled up with stones, most of them are two-story structures, the houses are very dense, because it just rained not long ago, the streets are very muddy.
The Imperial Army began to search within the town, from time to time exchanging blows with the scattered tribal army.
It was not wise to continue to move deeper into the tribal territory, so Su Xiao's Imperial Army stopped in the town to recuperate, and would return to the Black Earth Fortress afterward.
After clearing out the tribal soldiers within the town, the imperial soldiers gradually dispersed, their demeanor obviously much more relaxed.
Su Xiao sat on the stone steps in front of a residential house, eating compressed cookies to replenish his energy, the compressed dry food was actually not difficult to eat, it was just very dry in texture.
