Xiao Feng, who was halfway up the mountain, also felt something was wrong.

The orcs had been very aggressive since they arrived in the morning. The battle had only been going on for a while, so it would definitely not end in such an anticlimactic manner.

Therefore, his men never stopped, and the 105-caliber Italian artillery kept bombarding the Orcs' catapult positions, blowing up the Orcs' catapults and knocking people off their feet.

Although the orcs were furious with him, they had nothing to do with him. However, soon the flame isolation zone projected by humans on the battlefield became more and more intense, and thick smoke billowed on the battlefield, obscuring his sight.

Xiao Feng could only stop first.

He sent wild bees to spy on the orcs, and at the same time he quickly cooled down the cannon barrels.

This 105mm artillery really made a great contribution today, blowing up the Orcs' catapult position to pieces. In just one hour, it fired almost a hundred rounds of artillery shells.

A manual single-barreled cannon almost failed Xiao Feng to achieve the effect of a rapid-fire cannon.

Of course, the consequences of doing this are also very terrible. At this time, the barrel has turned red. Xiao Feng also knows that there is a risk of exploding the barrel at any time if this continues, so this is just the time to cool down the barrel.

Although pouring water on the barrel is the fastest way to cool the barrel, doing so will greatly shorten the service life of the barrel. Since there is no replacement barrel, Xiao Feng can only use air cooling even though he is anxious.

This way of natural cooling.

It was useless to stay here, so he asked a few guards to hold the position while he and Friday returned to the city wall.

Kyle was organizing the soldiers at this time, collecting the wounded soldiers, and repairing the city wall at the same time. Xiao Feng took a look at the front position and simply sent a group of soldiers to the front position to lay some traps.

At this time, another messenger came up from behind and brought Ying Ran from Yingzhou. Xiao Feng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw him.

"How's it going? Have you arranged all the rest?"

"Fortunately, my lord, thanks to the newly rescued slaves, we have enough manpower and are almost ready."

When Xiao Feng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Pan Deli, the wild bee who went out to spy on the orcs, also came back. He spied on the situation and talked to Xiao Feng and the others.

It turned out that after the orc army withdrew, they were having lunch and repairing on the position. It seemed that the second wave of attacks was coming soon, and this wave of offensive might be more fierce, because they saw a lot of them on the orc position.

Special arms.

Xiao Feng nodded, then turned to Kyle, Ying Ran, and Bloom.

"It seems that this city cannot be defended. Kyle and I will lead 20,000 people to stay behind. Bloom, you will lead the other soldiers, take the wounded soldiers, and Flamel and others to retreat first and sit down in Ying.

Ran's boat goes away."

Friday was a little anxious when he heard it. As the chief steward of the human tribe, he was very reluctant to part with these materials in the city.

"Sir, what should I do with these materials in the city?"

"You don't have to worry about this and leave it to me. You take the baggage team and escort the human slaves who have just been rescued. Retreat immediately and leave now. Kyle and I will try our best to buy you time."

"Sir, why don't you withdraw first? I'll just stay here."

Kyle looked at Xiao Feng and said, he didn't want the hope of the entire human race to endanger himself by staying here like this.

"That's right, sir, please come with us!"

Yingran and Bloom also persuaded him in unison, obviously everyone was worried about Xiao Feng staying.

Xiao Feng laughed and said: "Don't worry, the orcs who can trap me haven't appeared yet. Besides, I don't feel safe if I don't stay. Okay, don't be nagging, just execute the order quickly and start retreating."

If you think about Xiao Feng's abilities, I won't go into details. How can the Archmage, who is indeed so powerful, be trapped by cats and dogs like half-orcs?

Moreover, with the master mage cutting off the rear, Kyle and the others can safely evacuate. Otherwise, the 20,000 people and Kyle would definitely have to deal with this.

There was no nonsense on Friday, and he quickly returned and led the baggage team to escort the orcs still in the city out of the city quickly, and evacuated to Qukai City.

Broome took the wounded soldiers, Flamel's field hospital, and 35,000 other soldiers onto Yingran's ship and quickly left the Napal mountain city.

Kyle, on the other hand, kept boosting the morale of the soldiers who stayed behind. The soldiers were a little panicked at first, but they quickly calmed down when they saw that the mage actually stayed behind to fight alongside them.

Xiao Feng also took the time to visit the orcs' baggage warehouse, and put all the food, grass, supplies, military armor and equipment that were left in the warehouse into the space. He didn't leave even a hair for the orcs, and then returned to the city wall.

superior.

It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, which was originally the hottest time of the day, but because the season had entered late autumn and it was cloudy today, the weather was not muggy.

The north wind started blowing at noon, and became stronger and stronger, bringing with it large dark clouds. It looked like it would rain soon, and the flame isolation zone on the battlefield began to weaken.

Soon the spiritual vulture in the air began to circle and send out signals. Xiao Feng saw the flight trajectory of the spiritual vulture and understood the meaning.

"Let everyone prepare, the orc army is dispatched."

The soldiers quickly climbed up the wall. Some of the soldiers were rotated and hid in the hiding caves under the city wall. Others who fought hard on the city wall in the morning were assigned to guard the back roads and guard other directions.

The north one is only more than 200 meters long, which is enough to accommodate 5,000 defenders. Another 5,000 people are placed in the Tibetan Soldier Cave under the city wall in rotation, and another 10,000 and 5,000 guard the back of the south city wall.

Three thousand serve as a reserve team, and two thousand are assigned by Xiao Feng to guard the east and west sides.

Different from the attack in the morning, this time the orcs did not use a large number of catapults for long-range attacks. It may be because they suffered a loss in the morning, so they did not expose the catapult positions as soon as they came up.

The advancing infantry soon came to the isolation zone where the fire was weakening. However, this time they did not forcefully break through. Instead, they pushed up several wooden water trucks and began to spray water into the isolation zone.

The fire was originally weakening due to exhaustion of fuel, but now it was sprayed by hundreds of water tankers, and the fire quickly weakened.

But this time, the orcs did not shout and charge forward, but began to organize their troops behind the isolation zone to prepare for war.

Apparently they think this is the limit of human catapult range?

And Xiao Feng and the others couldn't figure out what the orcs were planning, so they didn't rush to let the soldiers attack.

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted on the ground of the battlefield about five hundred meters away from the Napal Mountain City, and then a burst of fire suddenly erupted from the ground.

Then several human-shaped torches covered in fire suddenly emerged from the ground, ran around on the ground, and soon fell to the ground and were burned to death.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Feng's expression suddenly changed: "No, the orcs are digging tunnels!"

Five hundred meters in front of the city wall, a series of violent explosions suddenly erupted, and fires shot into the sky and continued to emerge from the ground.

The scene was like a sudden eruption of volcanic flames, constantly erupting from the caves of the Custer Landform, forming a series of volcanic fountains.

At the same time, the broken limbs and arms of orcs were constantly being sprayed out from the ground. There were also many orcs whose whole bodies were set on fire, emerging from the ground, screaming and running around on the battlefield.

.

"Fortunately, my lord is wise and has set up such a trap in advance, which can just break the conspiracy of these orcs."

Kyle, who was standing next to Xiao Feng, looked at the situation on the battlefield with lingering fear on his face.

Xiao Feng, however, was not too happy. It seemed that these orcs had learned the lesson, thanks to the minefield he had laid out before.

Stimulated by the continuous brutal charges of the orcs in the morning, when Xiao Feng was cleaning the battlefield, he took advantage of the fact that the flame isolation zone in front had not yet expired. He sent people to remove the city wall and set up a mine array five hundred meters in front of the city wall.

A lot of landmines bought from Liu Jin before were put to use this time. Not only were there landmines, but there were also many fire oil cans buried there.

It was obvious that the soldiers sent by the orcs to dig tunnels accidentally triggered these mines, causing the mines to explode and igniting the fire oil tanks. This had such an effect.

And when he looked at the screaming orc soldiers running around on the battlefield, his mind was heavy. When the orcs attacked Riverrun City before, they had sent out gorilla soldiers and dug down their city walls.

And this time the people they sent to dig the tunnel were mole orcs. Although these guys were not as powerful as the gorgonians, they were natural masters of civil engineering.

When it comes to digging tunnels and carrying out underground projects, it is definitely much more powerful than the gorilla beetle.

If they accidentally touched the trap and detonated the mines, the numbers seen on the battlefield are definitely not enough. You must know that these rodents always win by numbers.

What about the other mole people?

At this moment, he suddenly heard bursts of exclamations and rumbling sounds coming from the west wall, and Xiao Feng's expression suddenly changed.

At the same time, he also saw that the orc soldiers directly in front of the city wall suddenly started to move. The fastest leopard-headed men were the vanguard and had already rushed out from the isolation zone.

So cunning, they actually used the tactic of attacking in the east and attacking in the west!

"Kyle, gather all the soldiers and retreat to the south gate quickly. The north city cannot be defended. I will go to the west wall to have a look and try to bring more soldiers back."
