The retreat of the orc army was expected. In this battle, it is not possible to say who will win and who will lose. Luo Ji, Zhao Pan and other generals obviously understand this in their hearts.
But the soldiers didn't understand. Seeing the retreat of the orc army, the soldiers thought they had won, and cheered and celebrated one by one.
? In this regard, Luo Ji and others did not say anything. It is a good thing to improve morale. There is no need to worry about this trivial matter. The key point is what Li Yuanjie will do next.
Whether the opponent was misled by them, and then chose to stay and continue to attack Shangyuan City became the focus of Luo Ji's next plan.
Just in case, Luo Ji decisively dispatched a team of scouts, signaled them to use the ladder to leave the city from the other side, and quietly followed to confirm the situation.
If the opponent planned to retreat, the scouts might be able to interrupt at the critical moment, which might ruin the timing of Li Yuanjie's retreat.
Of course, before the scouts set off, considering the orcs' keen sense of smell like wild animals, Luo Ji must have repeatedly warned them.
Let the scouts be careful and treat those orcs like beasts with a keen sense of smell. Not only must guard against the eyes and ears of the opposite side, but also the nose of the opposite side. Don't let your guard down.
After ordering one thing, Luo Ji used a telescope to confirm twice that the other party had really retreated, and then ordered the soldiers to carry the sand and prepare to put out the fire outside the city.
The temperature of the fire ignited by this kerosene is quite astonishing. The few boulders thrown by the elephant slingers on the opposite side had already smashed several holes in the wall. After that, repairing the city wall of Shangyuan City will probably be another big project. The head of the construction department may have to vomit blood again.
After extinguishing the fire with sand and soil, cleaning the battlefield is naturally a top priority. The arrows and heavy crossbow bolts shot before can be recycled as much as possible. Although they are consumables, they cannot be used as disposable items.
But this time, the focus of Luo Ji and others was obviously not on the recovered arrows and heavy crossbow bolts
Looking at the corpses of the orcs brought in by a few soldiers, the generals and soldiers in the city exclaimed one after another. Seeing these orcs who looked very different from them at such a close distance, to everyone, Undoubtedly it was a different feeling, even Zhao Pan couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
However, no one acted rashly. Everyone still harbored some fear of these strange creatures, but Luo Ji, on the contrary, was more interested in it than fear.
This is an orc. For a modern person like him, it only exists in fantasy and video games. It must be false to say that he is not curious at all.
Possessed of curiosity, Luo Ji's gaze quickly shifted to the corpse of a kobold. This corpse was apparently killed by several arrows, with blood dripping from top to bottom.
After motioning for a soldier to come over with a bucket of clean water to simply wash away the blood stains on the corpse, Luo Ji finally saw the true face of the kobold.
To be honest, it is not quite the same as the kobold image he made up in his brain. If he had to say it, he was uglier than he expected, with a wrinkled face. From the appearance, he looked a bit like a Shar-Pei. With a huge nose, two obvious fangs protruded from the lower lip, which can be said to be quite ferocious.
Luo Ji stretched out his hand and rubbed the kobold's skin. It felt unusually rough, but it was also quite tough. Unlike humans, to a kobold, its natural skin alone was equivalent to a layer of leather armor!
Realizing this, Luo Ji felt a tinge of pressure in his heart, "Damn! Fighting head-on with this kind of beastman, humans are too disadvantaged in terms of physique. They must rely on equipment and cooperation, otherwise they can only rely on The number of people piled up"
The last solution is undoubtedly the last thing Luo Ji wants to see. His current military strength in civilization has reached a certain limit. It doesn't mean that he can't recruit soldiers, or that he can't raise soldiers, but that he can't recruit them.
Although he has made up his mind that even if he has to pay a certain price, he will definitely swallow this orc civilization in one go, but the loss in terms of troops should be reduced as much as possible.
After confirming the appearance of the kobold, Luo Ji turned his attention to the tauren next to him. The appearance of the tauren was basically the same as he imagined. It was undoubtedly stronger than the kobold in terms of physique. After fighting, he can already clearly feel that this is a unit that can resist and fight.
The physical strength of the orc arms is really far beyond his imagination, which makes his mood in theThe situation became serious. He might have to pay a heavy price for this battle.
He didn't stay here too long. After confirming the situation of these orc corpses, Luo Ji turned around and returned to the barracks. He had to think about the countermeasures.
And as soon as Luo Ji left, the soldiers who had been around for a long time naturally gathered together, and a discussion quickly unfolded
"The tauren's horns are real!"
"Nonsense, it's called a tauren. Look at this head, it looks similar to the old black cow in the field."
"How strong is the old black bull in the field? This tauren is as strong as the old black bull?"
"Maybe bigger than the old black cow." After finishing speaking, the soldier subconsciously glanced at the exaggerated muscles of the tauren, and he knew how powerful it was just by looking at it.
The soldiers were talking about a few strange orc corpses. What they felt was novelty, but what the generals felt was pressure.
Undoubtedly, Zhao Pan and Luo Ji wanted to go together, and then needless to say, a group of people walked towards the combat conference room in the direction of the barracks in a tacit understanding.
As soon as they walked into the battle meeting room, everyone immediately noticed that Luo Ji had already been sitting in front of the huge tactical sand table, and all the generals felt ashamed for a while.
However, Luo Ji didn't think too much about it. After seeing Zhao Pan and the others walk in, he asked casually, "How do you feel?"
Everyone didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly expressed their thoughts and analysis in their hearts. After hearing this, Luo Ji nodded repeatedly. After all, he was a person who could be named a general by him. Naturally, he couldn't be mediocre. He basically thought of it with him. .
"Tomorrow at the earliest, no more than two to three days at the latest, the orc army will definitely attack again. Before that, we have to think about a strategy to deal with this army"
