I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 155 Strategic retreat

"Follow me! Don't be afraid of them! I'll take the lead!" Harold yelled hoarsely, and had been bringing his troops with all his might to boost the morale of the friendly troops.

Harold is indeed a qualified general. Leading the system soldiers to launch a charge can tear apart the mighty orc army, but other armies cannot cooperate well with him.

It is nonsense that a lion can defeat a pack of wolves with a group of sheep. The militiamen and auxiliary soldiers began to flee after the death rate gradually increased, and the knights who commanded them had nothing to do.

The orc army is indeed too brutal, and the battle loss ratio has always been high. The death of a dozen or even dozens of human soldiers can be exchanged for the fall of one orc.

In terms of attributes, this is also very scientific. These human soldiers are all cannon fodder. None of them can exceed 8 points in strength and agility.

But the strength of the orcs exceeds 15 points, even after the outbreak of anger, they can easily break through 20 points, and the agility is also above 15 points, completely crushing the human army. Can't stand it.

At this time, the armies have been fighting for several hours. The 100,000 human army died in battle, and more than half of them fled, leaving less than 30,000. The orcs still have more than 7,000. Many of the human soldiers died in battle and have not yet escaped. However, none of the orcs were cowards, and they all fought to the death, which made Harold feel deep fear.

What's more terrible is that the physical strength of the soldiers on the human side is basically exhausted, and the orcs are still full of vitality. This is not only a strong physique. It is a weaker extraordinary creature, and it is not comparable to normal races.

"My lord, let's withdraw!" Lucius suggested to Harold with difficulty. He felt that this battle was really over. Anyway, winning or losing this battle is not the key to determining the outcome of the entire battlefield.

If the giant fortress is defended, there is no need to worry about what waves these 5,000 orcs will cause. The siege battle is much easier to deal with the orcs than field battles. If the giant fortress fails, even if they can defeat this little orc army. There is no point in retreating strategically.

"Brother, you retreat first, you can't die, I will stay and fight for you until the last moment! The Harold family will never desert!" Rand fully embodies the spirit of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers.

Not only was Harold not moved by Rand's fearless spirit, but he slapped Rand on the forehead. Noble morality, chivalry, or spirit are all used to brainwash and deceive subordinates and civilians. You Damn don't take it seriously!

When the danger comes, the nobles are the ones who run the fastest. Look at the Kingdom of Chiat, which has been ravaged by demons and orcs for a long time. How many nobles in the Kingdom of Chiat died for their country?

"Lucius, you lead the cavalry to stand by, don't continue to attack, wait a while to create an escape space for our troops!"

Harold carefully looked at the battle situation and realized that there was nothing to do. Even Steele had left early with the Twilight Brigade, but he had greeted Harold in advance.

This kind of battlefield with more than 100,000 people cannot be changed by him, a legendary strong man who is not lightly injured. It is the best choice to save some strength to deal with the legendary orcs on the giant fortress. At the end of the day, he and the rest of the Twilight Brigade successfully rushed to the giant fortress.

Harold, who had the idea of ​​retreating, was no longer desperate. It didn't matter how many orcs he had, the most important thing was to be careful not to be surrounded.

Lucius' proposal was indeed correct. As the human army was hit hard by another orc attack, the surviving soldiers no longer had the courage to fight, and began to flee in large areas.

The orcs began to brutally massacre the scattered human troops. Harold felt very unwilling in his eyes and only hated his lack of ability, but he could only retreat with the troops directly under him. The orcs had no commander, and the pursuit effect was mediocre. Attracted by the scattered army, Harold managed to escape with the troops.

"Let the soldiers take the time to rest, and we will make a detour and continue to advance towards the Giant Fortress!" Harold gave the order, and it was definitely a stain to escape with the troops like a bereaved dog. After being promoted to a top nobleman, how could he just give up like this.

The orc army seemed to have lost their minds, and completely dispersed the rout army that was chasing and killing humans everywhere. It must be a fruitful and great contribution for Harold to gather troops to encircle and suppress the orc army one by one at this time, but Harold is still worried about the safety of the giant fortress .

Once this fortress is breached, the Kingdom of Corondo will no longer be able to resist the attack of the orcs. At that time, the country will be gone, and no matter how much credit it has made, it will be useless!

And in this way, I have a perfect reason to explain my escape behavior. It's not that I can't beat the orcs and run away with the troops, but I don't want to entangle with those orcs, and I am eager to bring troops to support you!

The loss of Harold's direct troops is not too great, and there are more than 6,000 people left. If the orcs and the defenders of the giant fortress are inextricably fought, and both sides suffer tens of thousands of deaths and are exhausted, these troops of his will definitely make a difference !

It happened that Harold met Alan and his group on the road. They brought the wounded very slowly. When they found that the secret passage was destroyed and they could not enter the Giant Fortress, they wanted to meet Stiyl and Harold first. Steele missed.

"That half-dragon member of yours was resurrected perfectly. Not only did his strength and lifespan not decrease because of the resurrection, he even got some benefits with my full (heavy money) help!" Harold told the good news as soon as he met.

Harold's troops are already very close to the giant fortress. He ordered the large troops to be stationed and repaired, and sent scouts to investigate the situation. He must not approach rashly and attract the hatred of the main force of the orcs. He will definitely be easily defeated by the orcs. .

Harold didn't have the idea of ​​dying for the country, and it was absolutely impossible for him to sacrifice himself in exchange for a respite from the fortress.

"Have you encountered the orc's interception force?" Alan found signs that Harold's army had just fought, and asked.

"Well, the other troops were blocked, and I was the only one who successfully broke through with my men and rushed over to support!" Harold was also embarrassed to tell the truth in front of Alan, and slightly beautified the facts.

"That's pretty good too. The orcs divided their troops into 10,000, which greatly reduced the pressure on the fortress. It's a pity that the ancient war tree is scrapped. Otherwise, at this time, you drive the ancient war tree and lead the troops to charge, and cooperate with the fortress defenders to attack the orcs. Fighting can scratch the full stop!"

Alan felt a little regretful, but it was okay if he didn't mention it. Harold would feel a little overwhelmed when he mentioned it. The sky-high compensation is really terrible. When he becomes a nobleman, he will be heavily in debt. Maybe his life will be worse than before Bitter, I just hope that the Archmage will not be too stingy.

This is an ancient war tree that was destroyed in order to fight against demons from other worlds and save the world. You don't need to be completely free, at least give me a preferential price at the head office!
