Chapter 838: All must be settled
Ricardo no longer has any fighting brothers by his side.
He smiled bitterly. Although he had tried his best, the inevitable ending still came.
Although, this was expected.
He knew that the success rate of this assault was not very high, and the greater significance was to fight to the death. Failure was the most likely outcome.
Because of this, he was filled with peace at the moment.
I looked up slightly and saw the sky was dim.
He himself couldn't even count the number of greenskin elites who died under his hammer, so dying on the battlefield didn't seem like a bad thing.
"Um?"
Ricardo raised his head and found that the battle flag representing the orc warlord was not far away from him.
But this shouldn't be the case.
He had observed this before, and it was obvious that he did not have enough strength to rush through. The path he had taken to kill his way through should not have allowed the two sides to get so close.
Did Uru come here on his own initiative?
Just as he was thinking about it, the orcs who had stopped besieging him separated to both sides in front of him, leaving a passage.
An extremely sturdy orc warlord walked out of the crowd. He was covered in black and red steel, and was wearing super heavy armor, which made him look almost as big as a Space Marine's dreadnought.
That should be Uru himself.
Ulu stood only thirty or forty meters away from him. For both of them, this distance was already very close. It was almost just a thought and a charge to reach the destination, which might be faster than raising a gun and firing.
Ulu raised the ferocious long-handled machete in his hand with an appreciative look, pointed it at Ricardo, and said a few words.
Ricardo couldn't understand the orcs' language.
But he still understood what the beast meant.
He seemed to be giving himself a fair chance in a one-on-one duel.
Although he had consumed a lot of energy and was injured while fighting all the way here, the opponent was well-rested, so this duel did not seem to be very fair.
But Ricardo still smiled happily.
The other side could have used countless miscellaneous soldiers to overwhelm him to death, but they were willing to duel here, which was undoubtedly an opportunity.
He clenched the hammer in his hand, took a long breath, made all preparations, roared, and charged towards Uru with all his strength.
Thor's hammer was raised high, and with his most determined will, it smashed down heavily and swiftly towards Uru.
Uru also attacked with all his strength, thrusting his long-handled sword upwards. His seemingly wild and violent style showed his extremely exquisite martial arts. He accurately judged the timing, and the sword avoided the hammer head of Thor's hammer, pinching the junction of the hammer head and the hammer handle.
This time, it was as if his lifeline had been grasped. Ricardo gathered all his strength, but just when the hammer was about to be swung, he lost most of his strength with one blow, which made him extremely uncomfortable and also made him realize the huge danger.
He let go of the war hammer, intending to draw his gun to force the opponent back, but what came faster was that Uru used the momentum of the long sword to turn the other end of the handle backhand and smash it against his face.
He barely dodged, but was hit hard by Ulu's kick in the face.
Ricardo was kicked to the ground by the huge force. He struggled to stand up, but was stepped on the chest by the same big foot again.
With new and old injuries coming together, he couldn't help but vomited blood.
In a daze, he seemed to hear Uru say something, but he couldn't understand it in the Orc language.
But at least he could see that the sword that was raised high would fall down immediately.
…
"This guy is a respectable warrior. It would be better if he could be a little stronger."
After he finished speaking, he raised his knife and cut off the head, then Ulu put away the knife.
He casually ordered someone to dispose of the body, and then issued a new order:
"Let the boys keep attacking. Those shrimps can't hold on any longer. I want to leave this world before dawn. The Bone Crusher King is coming soon. His orders are for us to fight, plant more mushrooms, and replenish our troops. The orders of the Bone Crusher King must be completed!"
…
There was a thunderstorm at Exit 7.
Mingmu Star was completely lost, and Ricardo Lazio, the captain of the third company of the Dragon King's Spear who was responsible for guarding Mingmu Star, died for his country.
Under him, only about ten soldiers from the entire company, including the two remnants of the regiment in the Wangyue Star Region, were evacuated.
After learning the news, Taishi Chen immediately led a large army and rushed to the Wangyue Star Region in a hurry.
During the process, the updated intelligence that kept coming in allowed Taishichen and you to piece together the entire battle situation and understand the general cause of the sudden attack.
The first objective reason, which is also the biggest reason for the defeat, is that the enemy was too strong.
This time, a greenskin army rushed out from the Ohmgeria star field with extremely strong strength.
At the same time, stargazers from other star regions sent information at this time. They believed that the war in the Ohmgeria star region might have undergone a major change. A new Orc army arrived from the outside world. They seemed to have used traditional subspace jumps or some other unknown means to reach Ohmgeria and failed to pass the Unbreakable Line of Defense.
The legion that attacked Mingmu Star was most likely part of the new orc reinforcements.
Not only did they have a huge fleet and an exaggerated number of troops, but the orc warlord who led them also possessed very strong strength. During the ground attack, the powerful warlord named "Uru" personally participated in the front-line battle.
Ricardo Lazio, the commander of the human side and also the most powerful fighter, had to make a life-threatening move when the situation on the battlefield was extremely unfavorable: he personally led a team to launch a decapitation operation against the terrible orc warlord.
Ultimately defeated.
Taishichen knew that Ricardo was not to blame for the defeat.
There was nothing wrong with his decision, but the huge gap in strength between the two sides made the correct decision futile. In the end, he could only fight for his life, and there was nothing to say if he failed.
But why is there such a big gap in strength between the two sides?
This was a question that made Taishichen furious.
The strength of the greenskins is certainly the most important objective factor, but he also received support from the people in the Moon-Watching Star Region. After the main force led by him left, after the unbreakable defense line was established, and after the security issue was initially resolved, the solid state began to emerge.
Those guys with ulterior motives may not dare to oppose the alliance, but they can use war to weaken others, preserve their own strength, and strive to gain more voice in the star field, so that they can have more bargaining chips when they are fully integrated into the Dark Side Control Committee and the Alliance in the future.
They still have the courage to do this.
On the way back, Tai Shichen always wondered, if everything went according to the standard, and the defensive forces and facilities provided to Mingmu Star were completed as required, would Ricardo be able to hold on until the support he led arrived?
Maybe not.
Things that have already happened cannot be re-examined.
However, Tai Shichen was determined that this time, while fighting against and destroying the invading greenskin army, taking back Mingmu Star and repairing the unbreakable defense line, he would never let go of those people in Wangyue Star Domain who killed Ricardo.
All responsibilities that should be borne must be settled.
