The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 328 Amidst Wind and Fire!

"Dump!" Omske calmly directed his soldiers to discard the tattered equipment.

Meanwhile, the centaurs and other human soldiers continued to fire back and forth intermittently. The only difference was that every time the centaurs turned to counterattack, an orc would fall to the ground, while the archery skills of the human cavalry and knights were practically random, missing nine out of ten shots, and the one remaining shot would hit the orc's shield.

"Fight! Fight!" The tribal chiefs rode their wolves and drove the ordinary orc soldiers behind them. In their eyes, the human soldiers were already at their wits' end. At first, they threw away their ordinary leather armor, and later they even began to discard their iron armor. Now, Lord looked at the slightly dull standard-issue sword in his hand and nodded in satisfaction. Such a good thing could only be used by him, as the tribal chief.

"Kill those human cavalry! For every human you kill, you'll receive a suit of armor and a metal weapon!" Love encouraged.

Sure enough, the soldiers charged towards Omsk and his men with a roar as if they had been injected with chicken blood, which really surprised Omsk. He didn't expect that the orcs could accelerate a second time.
"Keep running them around! Try to exhaust their stamina!" Badr immediately caught up with Omske and suggested. He had keenly sensed this opportunity. If they continued to run with the orcs for a while, the orcs' stamina would be almost completely depleted. When they reached the target basin, these orcs wouldn't even be able to run!
“Alright! Let’s detour a little! Let’s take them a few more steps!” Omsk nodded, agreeing with Baldr’s suggestion. After all, it would be the orcs who would get tired, and the Sharma’s stamina was amazing, so running such a distance was nothing.

"Gear up!" Omske pulled the reins lightly, and the horse's head instantly shifted to the right. Under Omske's leadership, the entire Lagrange Cavalry deviated from its original route and circled into the distance, almost imperceptibly to the naked eye.

……

"Girl, do you think they'll be alright..." Roland stood on the third-floor terrace of his castle, looking north. He had staked all his mobile forces on this battle, and he couldn't even imagine the consequences if anything went wrong.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, with His Majesty Omske and the two dragon riders, everything will be fine. Besides, there's also a whole hundred-man knight order..." Nyx affectionately nuzzled her head against Roland's chest. She loved this reassuring feeling; after all, a young girl in love had eyes only for her sweetheart!
But Roland clearly saw the seriousness and unease in Nyx's eyes. He understood that she was just trying to comfort him. Roland also understood what Nyx's unfinished words were—even if they were defeated, the Knights would be able to escape unscathed.

"Hmm, it's getting late... Shall we go and rest?" Roland said, gazing at the lovely girl in his arms and giving her a gentle kiss.

"Hmm!" Nyx nodded as she looked at the setting sun, then gently pushed Roland aside and skipped into the bathroom.

"Hehe~" Roland looked at Nyx's beautiful back and gave an ambiguous smile.

As Roland grinned at Nyx, Omsk was leading the orcs in circles. Omsk had ordered his soldiers to throw away all the "junk," and the soldiers, now unburdened, increased their speed even further.

"The basin is just ahead!" Lavian's eyes lit up as he pointed to the sunken ground ahead.

"Keep up, you bastards!" Omske turned and sneered at the orcs following closely behind. Then he saw the sun hanging in the sky and setting in the west. He seemed to think of something and laughed even more heartily.

……

"They've stormed into the basin!" Lord said, looking at the cavalry regiment in the basin.

"They want to use this basin to escape our pursuit!" Love believed he understood the humans' intentions.

"What? You want to run away? You've kept us running for so long? Now you want to run away! Men, chase after them!" Lor immediately exploded.

"Kill!" Urged on by the lords, the orcs quickened their pace, even catching a glimpse of the Lagrang soldiers' tails. "Dragon God!" Ravian turned around and was terrified; these two-legged orcs were only a hundred meters away from them.

"Speed ​​up!" The Lavian people were dumbfounded. Were these orcs livestock? How could they run so fast!
"Kill those wolf riders!" Badr raised his mane-grip and aimed at a group of wolf riders charging straight at them.

"Wolf riders!" Lavian frowned. This group of over four hundred wolf riders already made Lavian feel threatened. If these wolf riders charged up and entangled them, it would be troublesome. The two groups of people fighting each other like meat grinders would definitely make the dragon riders in the sky hesitate to act.

"Soldiers! Charge!" Omske brandished his lance and roared furiously. He swore this was the first time in his military career that he had ordered his men to charge in the opposite direction...

"Pfft! A reverse charge!" Ajax couldn't help but laugh in the sky. Omsk, who had been hunting geese all day, had finally been pecked in the eye by a goose today. The wolf riders hidden in the crowd had long been discovered by the dragon riders in the sky, but Omsk had been controlling his speed to keep the orcs at bay. So the wolf riders were kept hidden in the armies of the various chieftains. They were only sent out when they saw that the chieftains were about to speed up their escape.

"Hehe!" Caslo chuckled awkwardly. To be fair, this reverse charge was indeed incredibly classic. One has to admire how a knight's charge is a divine skill for escaping! (The formation changed during the march, with the most vulnerable ordinary cavalrymen placed at the very front.)

"Fire back!" Badr fired an arrow!
"Pfft!" Nearly ten wolf riders on one road exploded instantly.

"Thud! Thud!" Armor-piercing arrows were launched by the centaurs, and dozens of wolf riders fell to the ground instantly.

"Damn it! I should have brought more mounted archers!" Omske thought of Roland's bunch of unproductive Battanian archers.

"The orcs are all in!" Lavian suddenly exclaimed. At this moment, all the orcs had entered the basin.

"Run! Run as fast as you can!" Omske's pupils shrank as he saw two figures hovering in the sky.

"Boom! Boom!" Everyone frantically whipped their warhorses, trying to make them go faster, while the centaurs thrashed their hooves like madmen.

At that moment, the Lagrange cavalry crumbled instantly, and they began to flee madly in the other direction.

"What's going on? Those humans have gone mad!" Lord exclaimed in surprise.

"Centaur? How did they get mixed up with humans?" Love asked, puzzled.

……

“Let’s begin!” Caslo said, smiling at Ajax.

“Yes! It’s kind of Your Majesty Omske to go to such lengths. Leave the rest to us!” Ajax nodded.

The immense fire and wind dragon powers began to converge wildly, slowly forming a vortex in the sky!
