King

Chapter 128: Situation Out of Control


The shouts and killings rang out, and the camp was already filled with wails and cries. Blood stained the earth, reflecting the blazing fire that emitted an eerie glow.

With a simple charge, the Iron Tower Tribe's army was completely routed.

The chieftain fled with the defeated troops, leaving behind a group of the old and weak wailing in the camp.

Victory came too easily, as the enemy hardly resisted, leaving Hudson with no sense of achievement.

This is the aftermath of a big reputation.

The enemy was terrified before the battle even began, and when the great battle erupted, their morale had already dwindled.

Of course, this was just Hudson's personal opinion.

The frantically fleeing Ironwood Chief did not think so.

The Lionman's combat power was indeed not weak, but he only had one tribe. Altogether, they only had about thirty to forty thousand soldiers, combining all the young men and women fit for battle.

With so few troops, facing the Hundred Thousand Army of the Devil King Hudson, the courage to engage in battle was already commendable.

The current ending was fully expected. After just a straightforward clash, the troops collapsed. If they didn't flee quickly, they would end up as nourishments for the great plains!

The enemy forces fled in all directions, and Hudson was too lazy to order a pursuit. Being alone on the prairie was already synonymous with danger.

Due to the influence of resource competition, the relationships between adjacent orc tribes were generally not good.

During times of material scarcity, hunting solitary members of other tribes to serve as food was all too common.

However, with the news of the Devil King Hudson's invasion, it was estimated that nearby orc tribes were busy migrating and did not have the time to kick others when they were down.

Resistance and counterattacks would have to wait until the news reached the Orc Empire, and decisions could be made after high-level discussions and the deployment of troops.

The border guards existed purely in a symbolic sense, with more responsibilities falling on the border tribes. The unique system of the Orc Empire prevented the various tribes from collectively supporting an army.

Anyone with a little bit of sense knew how unreliable it was to bring together a group of races with deep-seated hatred.

As the blazing fires rose, the Iron Tower Tribe, which once dominated the area, vanished from the great plains.

The army's march did not halt, and after a brief rest, the fluttering Dragon Bear Battle Flag resumed its journey.

Almost simultaneously, the high-ranking members of the orcs who received the news stood in a daze.

The most feared situation had finally come true. The Devil King Hudson himself led the attack, and the Hundred Thousand Army could be considered a million-strong force.

"A new round of the human-orc war has erupted!"

Upon reaching this conclusion, numerous high-level orcs secretly cursed the Elf Race for their inefficiency. The enemy was at the door, yet their leader had not made up their mind.

"Ladies and gentlemen, war is here. This is the critical moment to determine the future destiny of the Orc Empire. We must unite as one to overcome this crisis!"

The Silver Moon Wolf Emperor said with a solemn expression.

As he spoke, a slight tremor could be seen in his wolf claws, indicating his lack of confidence in the unity of the various tribes.

"The Wolf Emperor is right, we must unite as one!

The enemy is formidable, but they are ultimately not gods.

Even gods can fall, so what reason does Hudson have not to fail?

The previous failures were because we underestimated this opponent and did not go all out to strangle the enemy.

Now, we've learned our lesson, and everyone needs to be on high alert. As long as we don't make mistakes, the enemy can do nothing to us!"

The Hawkman Emperor followed up, boosting morale.

Anyone with clear sense knew that the Orc Empire did not lack military strength. If the various tribes could unite, they still had the strength to contend with the Kingdom of Alpha.

Theoretically, as the defending party, with the advantage of the vast plains, the Orc Empire's odds of winning were somewhat higher.

The premise was that the enemy removed the Dragon Bear Battle Flag, facing this orc nemesis, the Devil King Hudson, their confidence in victory vanished.

In times of war, a lack of morale was deadly. If the high ranks didn't have enough confidence, the soldiers below could not possibly have the confidence to achieve victory.

"Hawkman Emperor, how's the situation with the Alliance?"

The King Bimon, who was standing nearby, said knowingly.

Since everyone lacked confidence in themselves, they might as well find ways to inject confidence from the outside.

The Orc Empire wasn't a foundationless small tribe; as an important member of the Anti-Human Alliance, the alliance would not abandon them.

"Everyone rest assured, our allies will not leave us in the lurch. The Elves are currently in the final stages of negotiations, and it's just a matter of time before they send troops to intervene.

The Dwarf Kingdom has already entered a state of war, and the Stone People Race, Three-eyed Race, and Trolls are fully preparing for battle, ready to support us at any time, the empire is not alone now!"

The Hawkman Emperor immediately assured them.

The art of empty promises is a skill, and the Hawkman Emperor and King Bimon's cooperation this time was not seamless. However, they still gave the kings of the tribes a reason to convince themselves.

Before things happened, everyone preferred to believe what they wanted to believe.

All the tribes were indeed preparing for war, but they were forced by the human nations, not to rescue the Orc Empire.

The high-level elves were indeed in the final negotiations, but unfortunately, the specifics of their discussion were not what the Orc Empire wanted.

Luckily, they did not know the Elves intended to run away, otherwise, the Orc Empire might explode.

In politics, it was not uncommon for a leader to sell out a small partner, but to outright sell out all the partners would be record-breaking.
