Chapter 415: Harvesting Heads!

"Roar!"

The orc captain's eyes widened; he could not fathom it at all. He was the only one standing there, while other clan members nearby could easily string together one or two, even two or three, with a single arrow.

So why did he choose me?

"Villains die from talking too much! Didn't you know?" Gervas seemed to read his thoughts and sneered.

Good heavens!

The villains' coffin lids are barely holding on.

Can this phrase be interpreted that way?

Pfft!

Thud!

Of course, the orc captain clearly had no objection, for his chest was pierced through; in an instant, he lost all strength and fell straight to the ground, performing the final thunder dance of his orcish life!

"Storm Legion! Advance!"

The next moment, Gervas wasted no time and directly ordered his subordinates to surge into the city gate.

This time, spear soldiers would indeed be needed to clear the way.

"President, look! They've gone in!"

At that moment, at the main camp outside the city, the great nobles immediately saw Gervas and his party charge into the city.

The great nobles, who had been full of worry, were so delighted they nearly jumped up on the spot.

Because with the main army successfully slaughtering its way into the city, securing Bokacheng tonight was basically assured.

The orcs numbered only around ten thousand; the rest were vassal troops.

Without the protection of the city walls, these vassal troops could only serve as merit for the legion soldiers.

"It still relies on them, these few little ones; they are simply my lucky stars. Quick, order the legion to charge into the city!" The President was so happy he couldn't close his mouth.

This Gervas was simply his lucky star; in such a critical situation just now, the moment he appeared, everything stabilized immediately.

Duke Hernand nodded in agreement, endorsing the President's words.

Duke Lieshi, however, furrowed his brow almost imperceptibly.

Clearly, he did not particularly like Gervas rushing into the city first.

Of course, Gervas knew none of this; after charging into the city, he personally supervised his subordinates as they began to advance.

They specifically chose areas with large concentrations of orcs to move forward.

After all, since they had come in to harvest heads, the more orcs, the better.

The area fitting this condition was Bokacheng's main street.

Thus, Gervas and his party continued to push deeper toward the main street.

Coincidentally, after Gervas and his group advanced several hundred meters, they actually encountered Commander Ryan.

Commander Ryan was now covered in bloodstains, and his subordinates beside him were each in a wretched state.

"Gervas? Mil? How is it you?" Upon clearly seeing Gervas and his party, Ryan was very surprised; he had thought soldiers from other legions had come to support him.

He did not expect it to be Gervas and these minor nobles.

"Yes, it is us. Your teammates are still behind! Are you all right?" Gervas asked.

Ryan came to his senses. "So, after my teammates were driven away by the orcs just now, it was your help, Gervas, that allowed them to break through the city gate?!"

"We few are actually fine, not too badly injured. However, our forces inside the city suffered heavy losses. These orcs are too strong; after we opened the city gate, their reinforcements arrived and directly crushed us!"

"We originally had eight thousand; now, if we have five thousand left, that would be considered good!"

Gervas understood that these legion elites must be under immense pressure inside the city.

If the matter were not so important, the great nobles certainly would not have been willing to let their subordinates enter the city and take risks.

"Commander Ryan, do you want to rest for a while? The orcs behind have already been cleaned up. You can move toward the city gate; that area is very safe!"

At this moment, Ryan's group had only over three hundred people; if they encountered a slightly larger number of orcs, it would be dangerous.

"No, Gervas. I want to fight alongside you! Drive these orcs out of Bokacheng sooner!"

Gervas did not object. "Very well, Commander Ryan, you will follow me. However, Commander Ryan, later you and Baron Mil and the others must listen to my arrangements!"

If it were any other legion commander, they certainly would not have tolerated such words.

How could a proper kingdom legion possibly obey the orders of a minor noble?

But Ryan knew the prowess of Gervas's subordinates, so he naturally had no objection.

Thus, legion soldiers joined Gervas, Mil, and the others' formation.

Regarding this, Gervas became even bolder, leading his subordinates without hesitation to continue pushing forward along the main street.

On this main street, many Behemoth orcs and vassal troops were running about or defending.

Upon seeing Gervas and his party, these orcs did not flee; instead, they rushed forward without hesitation.

After all, over half of Gervas's formation consisted of serf soldiers; these orcs were quite shrewd and thought they could squeeze them.

They simply did not know that this group, which seemed utterly defenseless, was actually a true hungry wolf.

"Roar! Charge up and slaughter these two-legged sheep!"

"Spear formation, thrust!"

Pfft pfft pfft!

Roar roar roar!

"Longsword infantry, surround them..."

Every time they encountered a group of orcs, Gervas and the others' combat method was spear soldiers in front, longsword soldiers on both sides.

After executing this combination punch, the orcs were directly stunned into confusion.

Sometimes, if the number of orcs was truly too large, they could first unleash a volley of crossbow fire, then send in the spear soldiers and longsword wielders.

After this entire treatment, almost no orcs were left hopping around; they all obediently became severed heads.

"Die!"

Pfft!

Roar!

"This... killing orcs can be this simple?" Ryan knew Gervas and the others truly possessed combat power superior to other squads.

But he never expected them to be that strong.

Before them, these Behemoth orcs were no different from ordinary humans.

The spearmen harvested a wave first; while the orcs were stunned, the swordsmen rushed up and hacked the orcs to pieces.

Those orcs, originally full of brutality, would immediately discover they were the lambs awaiting slaughter.

Not only did they have to endure a siege from both sides, but they were also constantly compressed and harvested by the advancing spear phalanx.

Just like that, the panicked orcs were quickly wiped out completely.

After cutting off the orcs' ears, Gervas and his group continued deeper into the city; when they encountered the next wave of orcs, the battle was another cycle.

During this process, Ryan and his subordinates also picked up several Behemoth orc heads.

This made the legion guards, who had originally looked down on these minor nobles, each one relieved that their commander had made the right choice.

"Great Chieftain!"

"How is the situation?"

"Great Chieftain, the... situation is very bad; the humans have broken through the city gate, and their great army is pouring into the city continuously!"

"Broken through the gate? Did I not order four thousand orc warriors to rush to support?" Great Chieftain Molar's face was full of anger.

Four thousand orc warriors should have no problem holding back seven or eight thousand human soldiers; moreover, there were originally many orc warriors and auxiliary troops around.

"Great Chieftain, the original four thousand orc warriors had indeed regained control of the city gate and were preparing to close it."

"But later, when most of the orc warriors were driving out the human elite squads inside the city, a human squad with strange weapons suddenly appeared outside the gate!"

"They could fire arrows as thick as an arm; whenever they fired, they could instantly pierce through several orc warriors!"

"Relying on this weapon, and soldiers wielding spears, these human squads directly broke into the city."

"By the time the other orc warriors reacted, it was already too late; the human great army was already pouring into the city continuously!"
