"Array! Conical array
"Charge
Under the cover of night, Macedonian elite cavalry slowly accelerated. When the distance was close to 300 meters, the cavalry half clamped the flat end of the gun in the arm. Start to increase the galloping speed of the horse to the limit!
A black wave is like a surging wave. The galloping sound of nearly a thousand horses makes the earth tremble slightly!
This black torrent with an indomitable momentum swept by!
………………
The dust fell to the ground.
The soldiers began to clean the battlefield. They need to collect everything valuable from these orcs, such as weapons and armor. In this era, the value of a piece of leather armor is not small, and the booty is an important way to supplement the loss of territory.
General Marcus Kane is treating the wounded and counting the casualties.
Murphy, on the other hand, took a group of soldiers to mend the knives for the orc soldiers who were dying and had not yet fully breathed their breath.
Anyway, at least give them a good time.
"Your Excellency." Soon their own casualties statistics out, general Marcus - Kane quickly walked to Murphy''s side, excited: "kill 742 enemy!"
"We lost 14 people and injured about 30."
This can be said to be a brilliant victory!
It was almost a complete victory.
Murphy nodded slightly, not surprisingly. With a killer like the total war auxiliary system, plus the unserved prophet on the strategic map page, if he doesn''t even have this local battlefield result, he won''t want to defeat the orc army at all. In fact, Murphy could even reduce his own casualties to a single digit if it wasn''t for the destruction of the fierce Orc general.
"It''s a lot less trouble to annihilate this group of orcs."
Murphy opened the auxiliary system of total war with his eyes closed, and slowly opened his eyes after seeing the changes of some attribute pages.
"You lead the Macedonian elite cavalry to take these booty back." Murphy took something out of his arms and gave it to Marcus Kane, the general beside him. He said to him, "you must give this to the high priest before dawn!"
"Yes General Marcus Kane, respond.
Murphy nodded, then turned over and got on the horse, and said in a high voice, "the others follow me!"
Soon, almost without any damage, the long bowmen of Crete turned over, caught up with Murphy and headed for the fortress.
General Marcus Kane assigned Macedonian elite cavalry to transport the spoils back.
For now, there is no need for cavalry in the next battle.

---------------------------------
"Break off one of their paws first!"
"And then force them to fight!"
Because of the influence of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, Murphy had to give up the fortress which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and chose to fight a tough confrontation with the half beast army within 50 kilometers of the inner city of Athens!
Only in this way can the orcs give up attacking Athens.
When a bone is hard to chew, the commander of the orc will hesitate to fight to the death with Athens!
In fact, in Murphy''s plan, he never wanted to defeat the orcs in a real sense.
All he has to do is to win a brilliant victory and then express his will to fight to the end to the orcs.
There are 100000 people in the half beast army, that''s right.
But these 100000 people are half the population of the whole Orc tribe, almost all men.
Unless their commander is a lunatic.
Otherwise, they would not be willing to damage all these people on the land of Athens. Even more than 30% of the casualties are beyond their capacity. Because these orcs also need to face the Allied forces of the human city-state, but also need to retain the male for the whole clan, to retain combat effectiveness.
This means that as long as Murphy succeeds in making them understand that Athens is a very hard nut to crack.
Then the initiative in this war fell into his hands.
Did you take Athens at all costs?
Or give up Athens and seek other breakthroughs from human city states?
Murphy''s ultimate goal is to tell the orc commanders! Athens has only a little more than 10000 soldiers, but to win them, the orc army needs to pay at least more than 50000 casualties!
Barefoot is not afraid to wear shoes!
Orcs are like that. Isn''t Murphy like that?
He really didn''t believe that the commanders of the orcs would leave half the males of the whole clan on this land in order to win a little Athens!
Take the life and death of a race for a small territory among human beings.
It''s a good deal or not.
I think the orc''s chief will understand it very well.
But the premise is that Murphy must win a brilliant victory first!
First of all, give the half beast army a hard slap in the face!
The more powerful and unyielding Athens is, the more likely it is to force orcs to give up! As long as there is a sign of weakness and submission in Athens, I''m afraid the orcs will come rushing like wolves smelling blood!
Everything is just two words!
——Fight to the death!!!
Athens dare to die! Murphy dares to die!
Now just ask the orcs if they dare to fight at all costs?!
………………
************************************************************************************************
The light of the morning fell on the wall.
Yesterday''s bloodstain has become dry, but the dark red on the wall is still so shocking!
Both sides of the belligerent camp have raised smoke, they are preparing food, but also ready to face the next battlefield.
Under Murphy''s intentional arrangement.
During the three-day offensive and defensive war, all the newly trained Greek heavy infantry after the Athens gorge pass were sent to the city wall to be baptized by the orc army. They are excellent soldiers, what they lack is just a little blood! Let their swords and spears be stained with the blood of orcs, and they can quickly transform into excellent soldiers!
That''s why Murphy decided to fight in the rear, but still had to spend a few days on the fortress.
He''s going to train these orcs!
Let these newly recruited Athenian soldiers be stained with blood, and let them fight in person to kill the enemy once!
For these soldiers who have undergone the cruel training of the God of war, going to the battlefield once is enough for them to be familiar with and apply what they have learned.
Although the casualties in these three days were a little larger than expected.
But it''s all worth it.
After the canyon war, two thousand Greek heavy infantry, newly trained, matured rapidly in the bloody and cruel battlefield.
They are no longer simply piercing the scarecrow with a long gun, they already know how to use their weapons to pierce the enemy''s heart!
When the sun shines on this bloody battlefield.
Once again, the orc''s mighty battle drums ring!
The ancient song of sacrificial rites sounded. In the song with a touch of desolation of loess high slope, the half beast army put shaman priests into battle for the first time!
The siege equipment made in recent days has been launched one by one, and some elite Orc warriors with armor and axe have also been assembled in front of the battle! Shaman priests with strange animal bone necklaces, holding high the staff, twisting and jumping the dance of primitive sacrifice!
Along with the desolate song of sacrifice, pieces of gray powder were sprinkled on the armored Orc warriors.
General riodari''s face was dignified. He transferred the Spartan heavy armored fanatics to the city.
The chief priest of the God of war closed his eyes. He stood majestic and majestic like an iron tower at the head of the city. After half a sound, he slowly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice to general riodari: "those shaman priests are presiding over the sacrificial ceremony!"
"They are using drugs to weaken the pain of the soldiers!"
As if to verify the words of the chief priests of the God of war, a group of ORC soldiers pressed more than ten human prisoners onto the altar.
That''s a human soldier captured by orcs at Canyon pass.
They wear their upper bodies, and a strange and terrifying pattern is painted on their chest by the orc priest with white paint. The faces of these human soldiers were dull, as if they had lost their consciousness, so they were pushed to the altar one by one and knelt down.
A team of swordsmen went to the altar!
Click!
One by one, the heads rolled down, and the blood gushed out dyed the altar red.
"Roar!"
All the orc warriors around the altar roared wildly. They roared and waved their weapons. Their crazy fighting spirit seemed to infect other soldiers, and immediately even the drums became loud. The human blood flows along the grooves on the altar, and these grooves construct strange runes until all the grooves are filled with blood.
An invisible red light fell on the orc warriors!
Immediately!
The heavy siege equipment is pushed forward, and the orcs who have been blessed by shaman priests step forward!
………………
General riodari and the God of war around the priesthood looked at each other, and then they both nodded to each other and said in a deep voice: "it seems that they can''t keep it."
Today''s action of the orcs is to play with no intention. It means that they will not stop until they win the fortress!
Athens has 3000 bowmen!
In the small terrain of the fortress, although the orcs can''t give full play to the number of people. But the same Athens side can not form a dense arrow rain coverage network!
Except the Greek heavy infantry of the first and second echelons, only four teams of Athenian longbowmen could stand on the wall at most.
This is also the important reason why Murphy decided to give up the fortress for a decisive battle site!
"Everything goes according to plan!"
The chief priest of the God of war took a look at the general around him, and then turned over and jumped down the wall.
A half team of 12 Spartan conquerors followed him. They turned over and rode towards Athens!
The enemy is getting closer and closer in the sound of war drums.
General riodari took a mouthful of the wine pot beside him, then clenched the 27 forged steel two handed sword made recently in his hand, and laughed: "come on! Green skin bunnies
………………
------------------------------
The second era, May 8, at noon.
The battle that lasted for one day finally broke away from the stalemate. Under the crazy attack of the orcs, Athens''s defense force became more and more weak.
The battle on the wall is coming to an end.
Some of the brave Orc warriors have even entered the fortress!
In one morning, the orcs paid nearly 3000 casualties in their crazy attack at all costs, and the Athenian garrison also had six full Greek heavy infantry killed here.
Fortress, general house.
General riodari watched a middle-aged soldier with a firm face in front of him, and then he dealt with a flinch in his hand with great solemnity.
There were shouts of killing outside.
But it did not seem to affect the two people in the general''s house.
The middle-aged soldier with Spartan surname silently took the torch handed by general riodari, then nodded his head with great solemnity and said in a deep voice: "all for Athens!"
"All for Athens!"
General riodari reached out and patted him on the shoulder, in a deep voice.
One side of the general''s guard from the dark corner opened a secret road under the general''s house, and then the Spartan soldier with the fire fold went without hesitation.
General riodari watched the figure for a long time, then took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "ready to retreat!"
"Yes
"Yes! Your excellency
………………
Under the orc''s attack, the fortress finally fell.
But the Lords and generals of these Greeks still made the orcs feel very difficult.
Because even if they were defeated, they didn''t panic at all. Everything was in an orderly way. A half Orc warrior who was eager to advance was even attacked by them, and was annihilated in just a few minutes!
Realizing that it was difficult to expand the result of pursuit, the orc commander immediately ordered the whole army to repair.
This crazy attack brought many casualties to the orcs. They also had a large number of wounded people to be treated.
It''s about half past one in the afternoon.
After confirming that all the remaining enemies had been eliminated, the half beast army entered the fort.
And the shaman priests with the army are also busy, they have to deal with the wounds of the soldiers, and they have to appease the orc warriors who have not yet given up their fury.
The buildings in the fortress are very simple, basically wooden structures.
When they left, the Greeks set off a fire. Although the fire was put out in time, part of the houses were burned down. The only one that was not affected was the general''s house, because it was the most magnificent building in the fortress and the first place taken by the orcs who invaded the city.
The orcs are out of action.
After the army took the fort, several Orc generals escorted an old Orc shaman priest into the general''s house.
Next!
A loud bang!
The whole general''s mansion was reduced to ruins in the dull eyes of countless Orc soldiers!
………………
When there was a loud noise in the distance.
General riodari stopped in silence. He stood in the direction of the fortress for a moment. Then he took out his wine pot and sprinkled it on the ground in front of him.
"Let''s go!"
General riodari is like an angry lion at the moment. His eyes are red with blood. He roars angrily!
The soldiers were ordered to move quickly in the direction of Athens.
………………
Athens had its own quarry, and Athens also had a batch of gunpowder purchased from the rear of the city-state for quarrying.
The power of these gunpowder is not great, but the quantity is not enough.
There are fifteen barrels.
Murphy bought it through Mrs. Elizabeth when she first built the quarry. It has been used all the time, and now there are about eight and a half barrels left.
The eight and a half barrels of gunpowder were buried under the general''s house in the fortress. There is a dark grid under the general''s house, which Murphy ordered people to dig secretly during this period. It''s a gift he''s going to leave to the orcs.
It is up to general riodari to choose a martyr and light it when necessary.
As long as there is a little bit of luck around him, it means that this arrangement can be a big fish!
………………
Athens.
With the coming of the war, the whole city has entered a kind of silence.
Whether they are aborigines or citizens of Athens, all those who choose to stay are quietly wiping their weapons.
People can''t always run away, right?
Facing the enemy, facing the war, people should learn to take up the courage to face!
The great Lord has never failed!
——He is invincible!!!
The citizens of Athens believe that the same is true this time, and this strong self-confidence and trust also infects the indigenous people who choose to stay. They are quietly looking forward to, looking forward to Murphy can give them a brilliant victory!
inner city.
Just as Murphy was racing against the clock for the coming war.
The high priest and Helen, the priest of love and beauty, also came to the temple of war. At this time, the temple of war was almost empty, because all the God of war priests were recruited by Murphy as soldiers. They followed the chief priests of the God of war and fought with the soldiers of Athens!
They''re from Sparta.
Their innate mission is to fight!
Temple of the God of war.
"Have you really decided?" The high priest looked at Helen, the priest of love and beauty, and said, "actually, you don''t have to..."
"Don''t think of me as Athena!" Helen''s eyes flashed a touch of divine brilliance. With a sneer on her lips, she said: "only that self righteous idiot can..."
Speaking of this, Aphrodite, the God of love and beauty incarnated in Helen, seems to remember that the high priest around her is now another Athena. She immediately stopped and looked apologetically at the high priest. Although she is hostile to Athena, she has no hostility to the high priest who is the second personality of Athena.
On the contrary, she always felt close to each other.
For these.
There was no change in the high priest''s expression, as if he didn''t care what Aphrodite, the God of love and beauty, said. She just gave a little smile and said slowly, "if you''re ready. Let''s go in. "
"In this war, Murphy must rely on the power of the God of war!"
………………
Just after the high priest and Helen, the priest of love and beauty, entered the temple of war.
About half an hour.
An invisible wave of power is transmitted from the temple of war. At the same time, about 50 kilometers away from Athens, the chief priest of the God of war, who had successfully evacuated to the planned location of Murphy, suddenly looked at the inner city of Athens as if he had a feeling.
ten minutes later.
Murphy''s ear suddenly sounded "total war" auxiliary system''s electronic prompt sound.
"Ding! The power of faith! Kratos, the God of war, has been improved! War Temple upgrade! A new divine power is on
"Ding! The war temple is upgraded to the great temple! Awaken to the realm of killing
"Ding! Olympus has medium power gods! Blood power on! Career advancement system activation, activation progress 10%... "
………………
Murphy was stunned for a long time when he heard these system prompts.
However, he immediately opened the temple page in the auxiliary system of total war to see the changes of the war temple.
