Chapter 703
The war was far more bloody than any battle. The blood continued to stain the walls of Holy Helm Castle red, and slowly slid down, converging into a stream of blood like a stream.

As time went by, a strong smell of blood permeated the entire valley, and the corpses of orcs were covered under the walls of the Holy Helm Castle, like a hill.

The siege on the first day was just a test. Although Ashgar ordered the orcs to attack, he did not put all his strength on it.

Under the strafing of bows and arrows, the orcs suffered a lot of damage, more than 300 people lost their lives, but later when the spears were thrown as a cover, the momentum was suppressed.

The spears thrown by the powerful force penetrated the bodies of many archers on the wall and nailed them directly to the wall.

The suppression made them dare not attack unscrupulously with arrows, and also made the orc's siege ladder lean against the city wall.

Once the distance is close, there is no way to throw it, and with the armor of the orc, the threat of bows and arrows is greatly reduced.

Moreover, the Rohan people of Holy Helm Fort still face a problem, that is, they have to deal with the orcs who climbed up, which is not convenient for bows and arrows.

Thus, hand-to-hand combat began.

The orcs were powerful and fearless. When they climbed onto the wall one by one and started to attack, the threat they posed was enormous.

The orcs were dying, but the people of Rohan were also beginning to suffer heavy casualties.

On the first day, more than 1000 orcs died, and more than 1000 died in Rohan.

On the second day, Ashgar slowed down his offensive a bit. The orcs suffered more than 800 casualties.

On the third day, all the people of Rohan were extremely exhausted, and including all the wounded soldiers, there were only more than 2000 people.

Xi Youde was covered in blood, with bandages on his shoulders, standing on the wall, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of worry.

"Hold on for another day, and on the third day the king's army will come."

He took the lead and killed many orcs, and finally persisted until the third day.

Although there were heavy casualties, as long as they survived today, it was time for them to counterattack Rohan.

"Prince, the orc offensive has been suspended!"

At this moment, a loud shout sounded, Xi Youde's expression tightened, and he immediately came to the edge of the city wall. Sure enough, the orc army had stopped its offensive.

"Have our reinforcements arrived?"

The deputy general also knew that the sudden stop of the army was wrong, but after thinking about it, today is the third day, and reinforcements should have arrived.

Excitement flashed in his eyes. If the reinforcements arrive, then as soon as the reinforcements launch an attack, they will rush out from the inside and cooperate with the outside. These damned orcs will all die.

However, when he looked at Xi Youde, he suddenly found that Xi Youde's face turned into a pale white paper.

"dong dong dong"

Hearing the sound of heavy footsteps, he suddenly looked towards the valley outside the city wall, his pupils contracted rapidly, and a look of fear flashed past, and then a coolness rushed straight to the sky.

"Trolls, he, they even have trolls!"

The orc troops were slowly getting out of the way, and three tall, terrifying trolls in the valley were coming with heavy steps.

They are about seven meters tall, with dark skin and bulging muscles. They are covered under a steel armor. The thickness of the armor is one or two centimeters, which tightly protects the whole body.

In their hands, they held a huge meteor hammer. The whole body was made of metal, and the meteor hammer head was full of blunt thorns. It was more than one meter in diameter, and it looked no worse than a battering hammer.

The three trolls strode toward Helm's Keep, every step seemed to be stepping on the heart of Rohan's soldiers.

Fear gradually spread in the army.

Even if it was the first day, it would be better for Ashgar to directly use the troll that day than to show up now.

Seeing such a monster at the end of the battle is the nightmare of all warriors.

"Send the arrow, release the arrow!"

Xiyoud ordered loudly, but the soldiers at the top of the city were silent, and their voices were mournful: "Prince, we ran out of arrows yesterday, and all of our rolling stones and logs were used up."

They are defending in a hurry, there is no way to store more defensive materials, and they have already prepared all the food.

As for the equipment for city defense, needless to say, there was no time to make and prepare them.

Although Ashgar intentionally delayed the time, he had no intention of really paddling at all.

The siege is a real siege, and it is also his plan to consume the supplies in the Holy Helm Castle.

Soon, the ogre had strode to the front of the orc army, only a few tens of meters away from the city wall.

Hiyod knew that he and Fort Helmet were at the point of life and death, and he almost screamed.

"Throw spears, throw your spears, and don't let that thing come near."

"whoosh"

Xiyoud almost exhausted all his strength and threw the spear in his hand.

How he hoped that this spear could penetrate the troll's body and kill the troll.

If that's the case, the morale will be boosted, and Holy Helm Castle will be able to last until his father arrives.

However, with a soft ding, the spear landed on the ogre's armor, leaving only a little trace, and then fell powerlessly.

All the guarding soldiers of Rohan almost did the same thing, hitting the trolls sparsely with their spears.

Most of them couldn't break through the defense of the armor, and occasionally some fish that slipped through the net got stuck on the arms of the shemale.

The next moment, the pain-eating troll pulled out the "thorn" and threw it back hard, sinking into the wall.

For such a huge size of the troll, unless it specifically hits a vital position like the head.

Otherwise, if ordinary attacks want to kill him, they can only grind slowly.

And now, do Xiyoud and the others still have time to kill a powerful ogre?

I watched the ogre walk through the curved corridor and came under the city gate.

"Block the door, seal the door!"

Sealing the city gate was Xiyoud's last order, but in Ashgar's view, it was useless.

"attack!"

The orc troops launched an attack again, and this time the entire army was on top, and the remaining six or seven thousand orc troops joined the siege sequence in a dense manner.

"boom"

The troll began to hit the city gate, swinging a huge meteor hammer, with unrivaled strength, slammed into the city gate fiercely.

With just one impact, the sawdust of the city gate splashed and shook vigorously, making a loud noise.

The trolls are so powerful that this city gate can't bear it.

The three trolls took turns banging on the door, one after another, the city gate began to penetrate, revealing the worrisome soldiers behind and in front of the gate.

On one side were the distressed soldiers of Rohan, and on the other side were fanatical orc warriors. The sound of shouting and killing almost resounded throughout the Fort of the Holy Helm.

Ashger didn't do it himself, he held the secret ring in his devout hand, and half-kneeled on the ground, the black power spread around the entire sacred helmet, invading the ground like a root system.

"The great mother tree of war, accepting the call of the great master, I will offer sacrifices and come here."

The ground swelled, and the dark tree roots suddenly emerged from the ground, churning like a python, and then took root in a wider and deeper place, and a mother tree actually grew here.
