"It's almost time, get the archers ready."
Seeing more and more orc warriors beginning to climb the walls of Bloodbath City, the orc army commander gave instructions to those around him.
Before the humans even noticed, a large number of orc archers began to mingle with the orc army, slowly approaching Bloodbath City.
"Chieftain, the archers are in position. Should we order them to attack immediately?" The orc who had previously advised the orc leader reported to him.
“Select an elite force composed entirely of novice warriors and have them quickly scale the human city walls while the archers are attacking.”
"yes!"
About 200 meters in front of Bloodbath City, the orc archers began to form ranks. After completing their formation, they picked up their longbows and quickly launched an attack on the human warriors atop the walls of Bloodbath City.
The bows held by these orc archers were much larger than those of the humans, probably close to two meters wide.
Although the human warriors were clad in heavy armor, the orc warriors' immense strength made their arrows extremely lethal. Even the human's thick armor could not completely withstand their power. Caught off guard, the orc archers achieved some success against the human warriors.
Just as the orc archers began attacking the human warriors, the elite force drawn from the orc commander also took this opportunity to rapidly scale the walls of Bloodbath City.
"Quickly! Shieldbearers, move forward to defend! Spearmen, hold back these beasts charging up below!"
The human generals quickly took appropriate countermeasures.
However, while his defenses held off the arrows fired by the orc archers, they did little to hinder the orc warriors charging up from below.
For an elite force composed entirely of novice warriors, led by dozens of second-tier extraordinary experts, the towering walls of Bloodbath City were nothing.
Even the most ordinary soldiers in this elite force could leap dozens of meters high. After using their momentum several times, they easily killed the soldiers blocking their way and scaled the walls of Bloodbath City.
After scaling the walls of Bloodbath City, these elite orc warriors inflicted heavy casualties on the human warriors atop the walls. Furthermore, they destroyed some of the city's defensive equipment, including several ballistae and three catapults.
After the human commanders organized an effective defense and began to besiege the orc elites, more orc warriors began to scale the walls of Bloodbath City.
After a large number of orc warriors scaled the walls of Bloodbath City, the human warriors were forced into a fierce close-quarters battle with the orcs.
In the chaos of battle, human warriors were unable to organize precise battle formations. They could only rely on their heavy armor to gain a slight advantage in the fight against orc warriors.
But this situation didn't last long. As more and more orc warriors began to scale the walls of Bloodbath City, the rate of human casualties increased dramatically, and the situation began to turn against the humans.
"Quickly! Notify the rear to send 5,000 troops to provide support, and then select some martial arts experts and warriors with a battle qi level of intermediate or higher to go up the city wall and fight the enemy!"
The general guarding the walls of Blood Station City ordered his personal guards to quickly relay the order to the main army inside Blood Station City to reinforce the walls.
After reinforcements arrived, the human warriors on the walls of Bloodbath City quickly stabilized the situation. With the participation of some martial arts experts and intermediate-level warriors, the elite orcs on the walls of Bloodbath City began to be swiftly wiped out.
After sacrificing a large number of human warriors, the orcs on the walls of Bloodbath City were finally driven back.
After the orcish attack was repelled, the orcish archers had very few iron arrowheads left.
After the attack was repelled, the orc leader sent more orc warriors to join the attack on Bloodbath City.
During this attack, the Orc leader also deployed a strategic unit of the Orcs—the air force.
After a century-long standoff with the Winged Clan, the Orcish Air Force has grown into a powerful army renowned throughout the Tianyuan Continent.
Looking from the walls of Bloodbath City, one could see a large number of orc warriors with the ability to fly spreading their wings and flying towards Bloodbath City, their densely packed figures filling the sky.
If you look closely, you'll see that each Orc air force soldier holds several javelins.
It's unimaginable what devastating impact these incredibly sharp spears would have on human warriors if they were hurled from the sky.

On the walls of Bloodbath City, the city's garrison commander saw the overwhelming orcish air force overhead, but showed no sign of worry.
With a sneer, he ordered the soldiers around him, "Hmph! We were prepared for this. Men! Get me the quiver."
The quiver appears as a completely black rectangular prism. It is one meter wide and two meters high, and the side facing the orcs is covered with a dense array of holes.
The quiver is a weapon meticulously designed by the dwarven masters. Arrows can be loaded into its holes and fired all at once. Each quiver can hold up to 1,000 arrows.
After hundreds of quivers were properly positioned, they were simultaneously fired at the orc warriors flying in from the sky, under the command of the human city's garrison commander.
This round of attack involved launching hundreds of thousands of arrows, creating a dense rain of arrows that covered the orc warriors from afar.
After a volley of arrows, countless orc warriors were shot down, falling densely to the ground.
The remaining orc air force soldiers, after suffering heavy casualties under the relentless fire of the human archers, finally approached the walls of the human Bloodbath City.
"Raise your shields!"
Upon seeing the spears hurled down from the orc warriors in the sky, the human commander guarding the city began to direct his warriors to raise their shields in defense.
Faced with the spears raining down from the sky, the human warriors' shields only offered partial defense. Another portion of the spears inflicted casualties on the human warriors.
However, that was all the Orc air force achieved. Faced with repeated attacks from the Humans' quivers and archers, the already heavily damaged Orc air force was forced to retreat.
After the attack was repelled, the orc army suspended its offensive for the day and prepared to attack again the next day.
The following day, the orcs continued their attack on the human city of Bloodbath. During this attack, the orcs organized several high-level warriors to launch a surprise assault on Bloodbath.
Faced with these powerful orc warriors rapidly advancing towards Bloodbath City, and with the city in danger of being breached, the human commanders guarding the city calmly began to prepare for defense.
"All archers, switch to armor-piercing crossbows and, together with the mages, focus fire on the people charging up!"
