A burst of shouts and screams was heard, and the commander of the heavy cavalry camp led more than 1000 of his men, dressed in armor and riding armored horses, rushed out.

The dark armor wrapped the entire horse and heavy cavalry, and the horse's eyes were also covered, so it could only obey the master's orders.

However, due to long-term training, the horse and the rider have almost reached the level of telepathy. As long as the soldier makes a slight movement, the horse will understand and change direction according to the soldier's intention?

The heavy cavalry shouted in unison, shaking the heaven and earth like thunder. They wore heavy armor, held spears and sharp swords, and sat on tall horses, looking mighty and majestic. The sound of horse hooves was as rapid as war drums, and in the midst of flying dust, they rushed towards the enemy camp like a violent storm.

The spears were like a forest, gleaming coldly in the sun, and every swing was like a thunderbolt. The heavy cavalry were like tigers descending from the mountains, unstoppable. Their iron hooves crushed the ground, their swords cut through the sky, and their frenzied charge frightened the enemy.

The formation of the light cavalry quickly collapsed under the impact of the heavy cavalry, and the light cavalry retreated one after another, unable to resist this surging tide-like attack. However, the heavy cavalry showed no mercy, their swords and spears were like the sickles of the god of death, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the enemies they touched.

On the battlefield, screams, shouts, and neighs of horses intertwined to form a thrilling picture. The armor of the heavy cavalry gleamed in the sun, and their eyes were firm and cold, as if they were ready to meet all challenges.

Under the charge of the heavy cavalry, the enemies on the road fell one after another, and the battlefield was covered with blood. However, the heavy cavalry did not stop their steps, they continued to wave their weapons and charge forward, their target was Kaidehong's South Gate Camp.

The entire charge process was like a spectacular epic, in which the bravery and fighting spirit of the heavy cavalry were fully demonstrated.

The captain of the heavy cavalry charged forward fearlessly, for he knew that if the battle failed, he would be held responsible, and it would be better for him to die on the battlefield than to be punished by the emperor.

Leading his remaining men to the southern camp was a helpless move, but the heavy cavalry commander still had options and had studied them carefully. As long as they rushed to the southern camp, they would have hope and support from friendly forces. If they stayed here, they would surely face death. Although there were still more than 1000 people left, if they continued to be consumed slowly, these 1000 people might not survive until the arrival of reinforcements and would be killed in battle.

In fact, the light cavalry did not dare to confront the heavy cavalry head-on. The moment the heavy cavalry rushed out, the light cavalry on both sides scattered, but they did not run far away, and continued to fire arrows at them from a distance.

Countless arrows flew over and hit the heavy cavalry's armor with a clanging sound, but the effect was not great. When the heavy cavalry ran, the possibility of injury was lower.

However, the horses’ legs were not covered with armor, and occasionally one or two arrows would hit the horses’ legs, causing the horses to fall to the ground, and the heavy cavalrymen on the ground would also fall to the ground, and then the heavy cavalrymen behind them who had no time to dodge would also fall to the ground together, until the heavy cavalrymen who were a little further away reacted and gently passed over these people, but most of them would be trampled to death. This was how cavalrymen behaved during their march, and even if they didn’t die after falling off their horses, many would be trampled to death by their comrades. As long as one person fell, several others would be implicated.

The captain of the heavy cavalry brigade didn't care about these things at all. He just wanted to get these people out and get support from friendly forces so that more of his brothers could survive. Occasional injuries were normal. War is always like this.

All the way, the heavy cavalry chased me and fled madly, while the light cavalry chased and shot me. The distance was not too far, and finally half an hour later, the heavy cavalry arrived at the edge of the Nanjing camp.

A team of armored infantry rushed out from the edge of the South City camp, and then dozens of magic crystal cannons kept firing at the light cavalry. The light cavalry commander knew that you can't chase them anymore at this time, and the light cavalry will suffer when facing the magic crystal cannons. The retreat drums sounded from behind, and all the light cavalry withdrew.

Along the way, hundreds of heavy cavalry were shot by light cavalry with arrows and crossbows or trampled to death by their comrades. Even though there was no direct combat this time, only a little over half of the heavy cavalry was left after arriving at the destination.

The exhausted heavy cavalry and war horses all collapsed to the ground the moment they arrived at the South City camp. The armor itself was a huge burden for the heavy cavalry wearing armor, and even more so for the horses. Not only did they have to carry the armor, but they also had to carry the humans wearing armor. Such a burden was only suitable for short-term marches. Long-term marches would cause great damage to the horses. After the horses fell to the ground, they could not get up. Looking at their beloved companions, some cavalrymen even shed tears unconsciously. Those horses were no longer their means of transportation, but more like their friends and companions.

The soldier gently stroked the sweaty horse. The horse's lively eyes also looked at the soldier with resentment. The horse was no longer able to stand up again and could only wait for death silently. The camp fell into infinite sadness.

North of the Baitou River, the outer perimeter of the Bearhead Iron City was full of Tigermen troops gathering everywhere, but the Bearhead people, who were a little careless, did not notice this fact. And a large number of Dogheads and Minotaur had already mixed into the Iron City.

"Thank you so much, Rig. If you hadn't gone to the Beast God City to find me, I would have been fed up with staying there. There's nothing going on there. They're just training soldiers all the time. You know that, and that's not what I should be doing at all." Niu Er scratched his head and said to Rig as they walked.

"Niu Er, you can only think like this. We are helping the High Priest to expand the territory, and all orc soldiers have this responsibility. I came to you just because I am worried that we don't have enough troops to take down all the bear-headed people in the Iron City. You don't have to thank me. Let's work hard to take down the Iron City and repay the High Priest for his kindness."

The words that Rig spoke were becoming more and more human-like, and he seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally forgotten some things about the orcs.

The Minotaur looked at Rig and couldn't believe his eyes. Why did Rig speak so awkwardly?

"Rig, are you saying this to Lewen? Doesn't this kid want to teach you something good? Why do you always do these useless things?" Niu Er said with a frown.

"Nonsense, what do you mean by following Lewen's instructions? Haven't you noticed that sometimes the High Priest speaks like this? I'm just getting closer to the High Priest."

When Rig heard Niu Er mention Levin, he said with disdain that although some of his words were indeed spoken by Levin, he was unwilling to admit it, because Levin was a human being after all, while the priest was a genuine pig-headed man and even a part of the orcs.

"Well, let's not talk about these things for now, something seems to be wrong."

At this moment, Niu Er suddenly felt several powerful forces rushing towards him.

After Niu Er finished speaking, Rig's sensitive hearing also heard something unusual, and then he looked up into the distance.

In front, two bear-headed men on horseback and a bear-man squad of 200 soldiers were rushing towards this side. The whole team was neat and uniform, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not an ordinary bear-man squad. They must have been a rigorously trained and carefully selected bear-man squad.

Looking at the size of the bear man, they are almost the same, wearing silver-white armor. The biggest difference between the silver-white armor and the black armor is that there are much fewer impurities in the silver-white armor. This silver-white armor can only be made in the Iron City, a place rich in iron ore and with a large number of blacksmiths. The production of silver armor requires continuous hammering of iron to knock out all the impurities. This is a tedious and heavy job in this era without heavy machinery.

"What's going on? Did they discover us?"

Rig and Niu Er dodged to the side, and then Rig said doubtfully.

"It's hard to say. Do you want me to send a signal to call someone?"

Niu Er was at a loss at this time, so he asked Rig directly.

Rui Ge looked at the team that was getting closer and closer in the distance.

"It doesn't seem like he's coming for us, because his eyes aren't looking at any particular place, or locking onto us. This must be an emergency."

Niu Er also noticed the two bear-headed men leading the group, but did not notice any particular individual. Perhaps they were carrying out some special mission.

"Oh, let's keep moving forward. We can't reveal any flaws or arouse suspicion."

The two continued walking forward and merged into the crowd again. In the extremely complex steel city, such combinations were everywhere and would not arouse anyone's suspicion.

The bear team passed by Rig and Niu Er, and no one noticed Rig and Niu Er.

Compared to Niu Er, Rig was relatively calm. He didn't care because he had already confirmed his judgment that this group of people were not coming for them.

The two looked at each other and continued walking forward, reaching the city center, walking south at a crossroads, and after crossing two alleys, they arrived at the temporary resting place they had prepared this time.

They have bought four or five buildings in this area. There are people on the roof of each house who are closely watching the people around. Once they find anything wrong, they will immediately sound the alarm.

After knocking gently on the door of the yard seven times, a bear-headed guard opened the door. When he saw Niu Er and Rig, he saluted directly.

The two men quickly entered the yard and then came to the reception room of the house. In the hall, all the small leaders of the dog-headed men and minotaurs had gathered. They had been waiting here for a long time.

"Did you notice anything unusual or revealing?"

The orcs never said useless words when talking about serious matters, so they asked directly. Before taking action, they must first ensure that there is no leakage. If they leak and fall into the enemy's ambush, then they will really suffer this time.

Several team leaders shook their heads, indicating that they found nothing wrong.

"Okay, I order the official action to start at midnight tonight. We will first attack the North Gate. The tiger people have already gathered outside the North Gate. As long as we seize control of the North Gate and let the tiger people in, we will be halfway to victory. Everyone must be extremely brave in this battle and not fear death. As long as we succeed in seizing the gate this time, the High Priest will not treat you unfairly."

At this time, Rig was like a charlatan. Every time he spoke, he would bring up the High Priest to show his respect for him and let everyone remember that this team belonged to the High Priest, not to Rig or Niu Er.

"Okay, let's start the action. Make preparations in advance, arrange all the equipment and personnel, and wait for midnight to come. No one is allowed to drink alcohol today. If you are found drinking and causing trouble, your heads will be taken directly."

Rig gave everyone another shot of prevention. He was always straightforward and straightforward, without beating around the bush. Everyone was used to this way of speaking and didn't pay much attention to it.

After receiving the order, the team leaders nodded silently to Rui Ge, and then all the team leaders left the room. Then, every ten minutes or so, one person walked out of the yard, both to keep the secret and to reduce people's suspicion.

The third prince of the ancient tiger people has assembled nearly 20,000 tiger-headed warriors outside the north gate.

The Third Prince originally planned to borrow some more troops from his father to attack the Iron City, but after discussing with Rig, he did not do so. At this time, he no longer belonged to the Tiger Tribe but to the field. In this case, it would be inappropriate to ask his father for help.

In the tribe, the third prince of the tiger man has no right of inheritance. Only his eldest brother has the right of inheritance and can inherit the rights of the tribal leader. This is the consistent style of the tiger tribe and other orc tribes.

In a family, only the eldest brother has the right to inherit the tribe. Others, apart from working hard on their own, will separate from the tribe after reaching a certain age or when their father dies, to build their own power or wander around. Although it is a bit cruel, such a system has also led to the birth of many powerful undead orcs.

Flowers grown in a greenhouse cannot withstand the harm from nature, but flowers that have been affected by a lot of adverse factors in nature can adapt well to the environment in the greenhouse. All orcs believe in the saying that only the fittest survive and the strong are respected.

Quietly, 20,000 tiger people approached ten miles outside the north city gate, waiting for a signal from inside, and then taking down the Iron City, an important city in the north of the Orc Empire, in one fell swoop. As long as they took this city, the 100,000 troops would not lack weapons. As long as they took this city, they would also have all kinds of agricultural production tools. As long as they took these cities, a large amount of land to the north of this city would basically be under the control of the High Priest. Taking down this city would bring endless wealth to the High Priest.
