Chapter 1076 Orc Collapse
Chapter 1076 Orc Collapse
Due to the existence of the position on the top of the mountain, the orcs were unable to launch an effective attack.
The position on the top of the mountain was firmly fixed in place like a nail. No matter how the torrent of orcs washed it, the position on the top of the mountain remained unmoved.
The orc commander launched six attacks in a row, but failed to capture the position. Instead, he lost more than 4000 soldiers in vain.
The Wehrmacht on the opposite side also suffered heavy casualties. An entire battalion of more than 3000 men in a regiment defending the base on the top of the mountain was wiped out.
The casualties were over 1000.
Because these orcs always like to use smoke cover and then rush directly into the position to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
The soldiers of the Wehrmacht are indeed easily at a disadvantage in hand-to-hand combat because these orcs are stronger than humans in terms of both physique and physical fitness.
But even in such an environment, the National Defense Forces actually withstood the orcs' attack!
And because the orcs had not yet captured the top of the mountain, this had an impact on the morale of the other orcs, and at the same time the soldiers of the National Defense Force were greatly encouraged.
Since the armored forces of both sides were not much different on the plains, the fighting on the plains was a back-and-forth battle.
Both sides set their sights on the top of the mountain, but the orcs were defeated there.
On the third day, the orc commander had to face the decision of retreat.
Because the long supply line was attacked by the Wehrmacht, if they wanted to maintain their combat effectiveness, they had to close the defense line and withdraw to the eastern front before making plans...
And another important point is that the Second Panzer Army will soon arrive at the battlefield. Bachmut knows that his situation is hopeless.
When the Second Armored Army arrived at the battlefield, the orcs lost the initiative to attack and could only resort to passive defense.
Nonsense! Bachmut's army is only about 35 to 40 at most.
Moreover, there were only 18 elite troops among them, and 18 of these elite troops were sacrificed.
But what about the other side? The two Wehrmacht Panzer Armies together had 40 men.
They can defeat the Orc Empire with just their vehicle units...
Because Bachmut had to use up almost all of his assets to be able to compete with the armored forces of the First Panzer Army.
Now tell Bachmut that there is another armored army of the same strength.
Bachmut: How can we play this game? We are being manipulated to death! We are being manipulated to death!
Bachmut urgently ordered the front-line troops to begin evacuating. The orc commander wanted to retreat, but the Wehrmacht would not let them do so. Guderi began to turn from defense to offense, using a small number of troops to contain the orcs' retreat.
Forcing the orcs to walk very little distance every day.
The orc commander knew that at this rate, they would be caught up by the Second Armored Army sooner or later.
So the commander decided to cut off his rear to survive, leaving behind 20,000 miscellaneous troops.
When these 20,000 ragtag troops knew that they were going to die, it would be a lie to say that they were not afraid, as strong protests broke out among them.
But all they were greeted with were cold bullets...
The orc commander threatened their families and forced them to hold their ground.
The 20,000 ragtag troops had to defend their positions to the death. At first, Guderian did not take them seriously.
It was believed that as long as the armored forces charged, they could eliminate these 20,000 miscellaneous troops.
But Gudli underestimated the fighting power of these orcs.
Or maybe Gudli underestimated their desire to survive...
Because the orc commander ordered that as long as they could resist Guderi's attack and hold out for three days, they could retreat on their own.
Three days seemed extremely long to these soldiers, but it gave them hope of survival.
Like mad dogs, they launched a counterattack against the soldiers of the 1st Armored Division.
When Gudry learned about the tenacity of these orcs, he did not hesitate to request air force support and let the air force use gasoline bombs to end this farce.
Twenty thousand ragtag troops and their purest desires were buried together on this plain.
Their biggest wish is not to go home...
It's a pity that in the face of war, no one can say that they will definitely be able to return home...
The Wehrmacht also lost nearly 3000 soldiers.
They, like these orcs, can never return home...
Bachmut had to face the consequences of a major defeat on the front line.
At this moment, Bachmut already knew that he had been defeated miserably.
But he didn't want to give up in vain.
So he decided to fight the good battle with minimal casualties.
Currently, the casualty ratio between the Wehrmacht and the Orcs is 1:10.
This also means that at least ten orc soldiers are needed to replace one Wehrmacht soldier.
This loss ratio made Bachmut's face look gloomy.
But Bachmut decided to make one last crazy move. He assembled 20,000 elite troops and established a line of defense at the northern gateway of the Orc Empire.
Minoan Mountains.
This mountain is located at the gateway to the northern region of the Orc Empire. If you want to go to the northern region of the Orc Empire, you must pass through Mount Minos.
Because there are endless mountains on both sides of Mount Minos, not to mention how many magical beasts and poisonous insects there are in the mountains on both sides, just taking a detour would take at least three days at the speed of the National Defense Forces.
So Guderi would inevitably attack Mount Minos.
But Mount Minoan is made entirely of volcanic rock, because Mount Minoan was once a volcano, but later became dormant for unknown reasons.
Abedora, the orc lieutenant general who led 20,000 elite troops to Mount Minos, was looking at Mount Minos with a serious expression.
The front half of this mountain is completely defenseless, and only the back half can be defended by relying on the mountain.
But the problem is that you can't hold out for long just by relying on the advantage of being at a high altitude...
Abedora had to find a way because Bachmut gave him a damage ratio that was absolutely impossible to achieve.
That is to reduce the casualty ratio between the National Defense Forces and the Orcs to 1:1.
How can this be?
Abedora laughed at himself inwardly. The entire Orc Empire had fallen into the quagmire of war because of Bachmut's selfishness, and now that they were about to fail, Bachmut was still planning to go crazy...
Abedora shook his head, but at this moment, he saw a little mouse coming out of the mouse hole.
Abedora suddenly had an idea.
Since Mount Minos is the only way for the Wehrmacht to pass, if we fight an underground war with the Wehrmacht in Mount Minos.
Then the National Defense Forces will inevitably suffer heavy casualties!
But if he doesn't want to bite himself, and chooses to lead his army north, he can carry out harassment in Mount Minos and poke the Wehrmacht's ass!
Abedora thought about it again and again and found that this idea was feasible!
It seems that I will finally become the last face of the Orc Empire!
