119 The power of civil work

The walls of the ditch were filled with soft soil that had been soaked in water. I wanted to climb up, but there was no place to put my strength. I stretched out my hand and grabbed a large handful of sand from the ditch. It was very difficult to climb up, plus half of it.

The orcs were already heavy. When they jumped to the bottom of the ditch, they were covered in mud up to their ankles. As soon as they lifted their feet, the mud stuck to their boots. Anyway, it was very uncomfortable to climb up the ditch.

The Orcs' forward was trapped in the mud of the first ditch, unable to use their hands and feet, and their speed suddenly slowed down. The soldiers behind could not continue to rush forward due to the terrain, and could only wait in front of the ditch, waiting.

The first group of people climbed over.

At this moment, Xiao Feng, who was standing on the city wall, raised his right hand. Kyle, who was standing next to him, immediately opened his bow, and the other seventy people beside Kyle also opened their bows and arrows.

.

More than fifty of these people are members of the cattle-catching team, and more than twenty are overseers selected from the natives on Friday to maintain order. It turns out that they are also warriors from various tribes, including squad leaders like Hua Bao.

, I used to be a hunter who was good at bows and arrows when I was in the tribe.

Xiao Feng waved his hand fiercely, and immediately there was a "taut" sound of the bowstring after releasing the arrow, and then a row of arrows streaked through the air.

Because they were at a high place, Xiao Feng did not let the archers choose to shoot horizontally, but chose to throw. The arrows formed a parabolic rain of arrows in the air. After flying to the highest point, they fell quickly, and those orcs

The forward team was trapped in the first mud ditch at this time and was unable to extricate itself.

Because they underestimated the enemy, they did not take out their shields at all. The arrows falling from the air fell hard from the top of the orcs' heads, splashing a rain of blood in the ditch.

The orcs who were hit by arrows in the ditch burped on the spot after being hit in vital parts. Some of the lucky ones were slightly injured, and there were some unlucky ones who were hit in vital parts and failed to belch on the spot, and immediately let out a shrill scream.

The orcs who were standing in front of the ditch waiting to climb into the ditch were also shot down sporadically. This sudden change shocked them. Before they could understand what was going on, a second shot had already fallen above their heads.

This round of arrow rain, this round of arrow rain shot farther when Xiao Feng directed everyone to adjust the elevation angle, and shot down more than a dozen orcs crowded in front of the ditch...

Now even the stupid orcs knew what was going on. There were a few leaders in the rear group, and they immediately shouted loudly for everyone to retreat.

Although the orcs are not afraid of death, they are not fools. The current battlefield area is too narrow, and they cannot form a formation. If they are crowded in front of the ditch, they will be giving away their lives to those humans. They simply withdraw first and start again.

Organize a team to launch an attack.

The orc leader's military quality was still good and he started to call his men to retreat. Xiao Feng quickly ordered the archers to fire another round before they retreated. After all, their bows and arrows had a range of one hundred meters, and they were standing on a platform more than eight meters high.

If it is ejected, it can shoot farther, so of course it is necessary to take advantage of the orc team's panic to collect more heads at this time.

The orcs retreated very quickly, but still left behind a dozen heads in this round of arrow rain.

Xiao Feng looked at the situation on the battlefield through the telescope and couldn't help but lamented that these orcs were rough and thick-skinned. In order to maximize the damage to the orcs, Xiao Feng had chosen heavy arrows with tapered iron arrowheads.

, coupled with the gravity after ejection, these two arrows, plus the acceleration of gravity, if a person wearing only simple leather armor was hit, he would definitely burp on the spot.

But these orcs would not burp on the spot unless they were hit by these heavy arrows in vital parts such as the face, neck or chest. If they were only hit in the arms and legs, these guys could actually grit their teeth and endure the pain, and follow the team to retreat. Although

The speed is a bit slower, but it does not lose combat effectiveness immediately.

The beasts are indeed terrifying. Xiao Feng knows that the reason why orcs behave like this is entirely because they have not fully evolved. They maintain the wildness of beasts and usually secrete several times, or even more than ten times, more than humans.

times of hormones, and these hormones will make them stronger and more flexible than humans, and more able to endure hunger and pain. Of course, excessive secretion of hormones is not entirely a good thing. It will make these guys prefer to act according to their instincts, which means that they will not

It is easy to follow rules and get ahead of others, and the development of wisdom will be limited.

But on the battlefield, these are a group of terrifying guys who completely follow the instincts of beasts and are not afraid of death. No wonder the human army is no match for them.

The orcs retreated hastily, leaving thirty or forty corpses in the first ditch and in front of the ditch. It is estimated that there were more than twenty wounded soldiers who escaped. In just one encounter, they killed and wounded so many orcs.

The orcs only relied on a simple trench, which made everyone on the city wall overjoyed.

Needless to say, the natives have never lived in a castle before, and they have no concept of defending a city. In their previous encounters with orcs, they were always in close combat, using their own shortcomings to meet the strengths of the orcs. Basically, they were defeated in one encounter.

The beating was violent.

How had they ever seen such a result today? Thirty or forty of the orcs were killed without even getting close to them. This was a great victory in their eyes, and of course they couldn't help but cheer on the spot.

He was indeed a god-like master, but he only ordered everyone to dig a few trenches and blocked the orcs.

And those Toulon soldiers were very satisfied with such results. They had defended the city before, but they never thought of digging a trench in front of the city wall. Everyone attacked the city in a straight line, even if it was

The same is true when orcs attack the castle they protect.

When Xiao Feng asked everyone to dig trenches and fill them with water, everyone was puzzled as to why he did this. Now they understand that it is just a lot of physical labor, but it can bring such results. In the past few days,

The resentment accumulated while digging the ditch was instantly dissipated.

Soon they also cheered together with the natives, and their eyes when looking at Xiao Feng gradually changed.

Compared to these ordinary soldiers, Knight Kyle and Keira are well-informed. They have been to many castles, the most magnificent of which is the royal city of the Toulon Empire, but they have only seen the moat in the royal city. As for the castle

Several trenches were dug in front and the mud was mixed in the trenches. They had never seen such a defense method before.
