Chapter 111: Reinforcements of the Beast Race

When Oulong heard his colleagues questioning him, he spoke indifferently, "You just haven't met them yet. They are different from the Two-legged Sheep we have encountered in the past. These masked Two-legged Sheep give me the feeling that they do not fear death."

After hearing Oulong's words, Mailun nodded and said, "Hmm, we still underestimated these Two-legged Sheep too much. That is what allowed them to enter our Base Camp and destroy the Rune Bullets for our Rune Cannons. However, today we also found out where the remaining City Defense Cannons of those Two-legged Sheep in the Inner City are. Leave some Rune Cannonballs behind to prepare to take out those Two-legged Sheep's fire points. As for the rest, I will arrange for some Orc warriors to arrive at the Inner City gate tonight and attempt to blow that gate open in one go!"

"The Lord is wise!"

A group of Camp Leaders echoed.

"Is there anything else that seems off? Just speak your mind; I do not wish for us to fall to the same mistake twice!" Mailun looked around at the group of Camp Leaders and said.

"Lord, we did not find the heavy firepower unit of Two-legged Sheep that you sent us to look for; it is as if they vanished into thin air," Duolaigai said at this moment.

"Not long after the camp storing ammunition in the Base Camp was destroyed, sounds of shelling also came from within our Base Camp," Oulong also added at this time.

Mailun nodded and said, "Hmm, I can basically confirm that the heavy firepower unit you both mentioned should be the same unit. I am just curious, how did they manage to move such heavy weaponry so quickly?"

Just as the group of Camp Leaders was racking their brains with Mailun, Mailun's Orc guard walked into the tent, saluted Mailun, and said, "Lord Mailun, the weapons and equipment sent by Lord Maike to support us have arrived. They have now been pulled into our camp."

Upon hearing this news, Mailun first cast the problem he had been unable to figure out to the back of his mind, stood up, and said to the group of Camp Leaders.

"Let's go take a look at the supporting equipment first; it must be distributed to every Beast Race warrior!"

As Mailun spoke, he led the group of Camp Leaders outside, only to see Orcs pulling crudely made carts into the camp.

Mailun walked up, looked at the Rune Bulletproof Armor on top, nodded with satisfaction, and an Orc walked up at this time to salute Mailun.

"Lord Mailun, the equipment sent by Lord Maike is all here, along with 40 Rune Cannonballs and 【number missing in source】 Orc warriors."

After hearing this, Mailun nodded with satisfaction and said with a laugh, "Hahaha, now we can prepare to start the second attack!"

He turned back to the group of Camp Leaders and said, "Hurry up, distribute this equipment!"

The group of Orc leaders took their orders and left. Mailun returned to his tent, recalled the words the Camp Leaders had just said, and whispered, "I must capture the Captain of this unit in the Outer City; he must have many secrets on him!"

Fourth Defense Zone Inner City.

When Kelin and Kaxi found Xindi, they discovered that this guy had actually fallen asleep, looking at some flesh and blood that had fallen from the city wall, not knowing if it belonged to Orcs or Human Alliance soldiers.

"Regardless, at least the first wave of attacks on the Inner City was held off," Kelin looked at the flesh and blood and said with a tone of relief.

After noticing movement around them, Xindi immediately got up to check, and upon discovering it was Kelin and Kaxi, yawned and said, "Why are you here?"

"We came to bring you supplies and weapons and equipment. Are the Orc losses heavy?" Kaxi asked after seeing Xindi wake up.

"Orcs? The losses should be heavier than ours. It is only because Yingzhou is helping outside that we were able to withstand the Orcs' attack today. He must have destroyed the place where the Orcs stored their cannonballs, which is why the Orcs didn't dare to use Rune Cannons to shell us afterward."

Xindi rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat on his chair to recover for a moment, and then answered.

"You mean that soaring fire and thick smoke were the Orcs' cannonball storage being destroyed? And Yingzhou did it? This is too outrageous, right? His squad members are still in the Inner City." Kaxi looked shocked and said incredulously.

"I didn't agree to him going to the Outer City at first, but I couldn't sway him. Who would have thought that it was precisely because I sent him to the Outer City that the Inner City was not breached by the Orcs." Xindi was also filled with melancholy, took a sip of water from his cup, paused, and continued.

"However, the Orcs will not give up; they will definitely attack the Inner City again. Moreover, we cannot contact Yingzhou now; I don't know what his situation is."

After listening to Xindi, Kelin nodded and said, "Regarding Captain Yingzhou's strength, I don't think the possibility of him having an accident is very high. How many of our soldiers have been lost now?"

"About 8,000 or more died. This was even while the Beast Race stopped using Rune Cannons later on. It was only after we started to counterattack with the City Defense Cannons that the casualties decreased; otherwise, the casualty count might have been even higher. However, the Orcs lost even more; I estimate they lost 【number missing in source】 Orcs. I don't know how many Yingzhou killed on his side, but in any case, their losses were definitely more miserable than ours." Xindi handed a document on the table to Kelin and Kaxi and said.

"Hmm, this is a good sign, indicating that we will be able to hold off the Orcs' attack. By the way, we also found three City Defense Cannons from Department Head Zhang Hai, and we just had some soldiers bring them down," Kelin said as if remembering something.

As soon as Xindi heard the words "City Defense Cannon," a flash of light burst into his eyes. "City Defense Cannons! These are good things. A lot of City Defense Cannons were destroyed by the Orcs today, which pained me to death. This guy Zhang Hai actually hid such things? These guys really dare to take anything!"

"Let's talk about this matter after we get through this current difficulty; at least we still have hope now," Kelin pacified the somewhat agitated Xindi.

"Hmph! I'll deal with them after this battle is over!" Xindi said viciously.

After seeing Kelin and Kaxi off, Xindi called the Guard outside the door in.

"Change the positions of all five City Defense Cannons from today, and also place the three newly arrived City Defense Cannons separately so that our firepower can be maximized and balanced. The Orcs suffered a loss today, but that doesn't mean they won't attack, especially at night. Increase the number of scouts for me; if you discover any abnormal movements by the Beast Race, report them to me immediately."

"Yes!"

After the Guard left, Xindi looked at the city wall as the sky gradually turned dark, pondering subsequent countermeasures.
