Chapter 17

“Master we have to retreat. The orc army is too strong and we cannot send our soldiers to the city gates. It just sends them to death.” The guard standing beside Carrie whispered.

Carrie's face was grim as she had not expected to face such an outcome.

The number of soldiers on the other hand was clearly several times less than them. However, with the help of a powerful orc army as well as a great archer, Xiao Yu was able to reverse the outcome of the battle. That made Carrie angry.

Where did Xiao Yu get those orc soldiers?

Orcs never fit in with humans. How can they fight for humans? Does that mean Orcs and Xiao Yu have made an alliance? That should be the only reasonable answer. Otherwise, orcs would never help humans.

Orcs are almost extinct. But they are intelligent animals. Surely they had migrated to the outskirts of the Ankagen Mountains and wanted to develop a colony by the Lion town. As a result, Xiao Yu and the Orcs made an unusual alliance.

Carrie hesitated for some time. However, during that time another 200 soldiers were killed. Archers were excellent and soldiers had nowhere to hide from arrows.

Soldiers had shields and armor but could not protect them forever. They could avoid one arrow but the second or third arrow would take them to the afterlife.

"Retreat." Carrie looked at the solid city walls. He knew he had to come back. The terrain at the city gate was narrow and blocked by the Orcs. His troops could not pass through the place.

They had a witch and could have broken through the gate with the help of that witch. However, the Kumar Witch told them that Xiao Yu had a very powerful archer. Master Kumar is injured and he won't be easy going forward.

"I'll step into the city next time!" A chill flashed through Carrie's eyes as she looked at the battlefield.

The soldier was relieved to hear the order to retreat. The arrows were like endless rain falling on them. Moreover, they did not have the courage to face the orc army head-on.

Xiao Yu stood up and narrowed his eyes as he watched the enemy soldiers retreat. He was thinking about the pursuit.

He hesitated for a while but decided not to chase after the enemy soldiers. They had achieved incredible results but they relied on the sturdy city walls, the strength of the orc warriors and the accuracy of the elite archers.

However, Xiao Yu believed that he would lose all profits once they started fighting on the plains.

There was no problem with the Orcs' attacks. But the elf archers were too fragile. The casualties would be huge if they continued.

Elf archers were extremely strong in long range attacks but their flaw was that they were extremely weak in close combat. Even ordinary bandits could easily kill them as long as the distance problem was resolved.

Xiao Yu had seen this flaw in his previous fight against the bandits. That was why he was very careful in using archers.

Xiao Yu had asked the problem he was facing on the system. The answers given by the system had confused him. In short, there might be some improvement to the close combat abilities of the elves but it was insurmountable. That is also the lack of this game. Actually the advantages of the game system stand out, but the disadvantages also stand out. The game system is not like real life where you can train the soldiers in all aspects of battle.

The city soldiers started cheering as they watched Carrie's troops retreat. Some of them even cried with joy.

They all thought that they would be killed and the city would fall. They expect their parents, children, and spouses to be hurt in the process. However, they did not expect that under the leadership of the prodigal son they would defeat Carrie's forces.

They were able to defeat an army of 5000 soldiers with less than 1000 men. In the process at least 3500 enemy soldiers were massacred. It was already a big win.

"We won, we won!" The soldiers started shouting in unison.

Xiao Yu's fourth sister-in-law, Suesha, wiped her bloodied sword. He thought like the others that the city would be destroyed and no one could escape death.

Suesha wondered where this lost child had gotten those elite soldiers from. It was just a miracle. He looked at Xiao Yu who was standing on the wall and holding a glass of red wine in his hand. Xiao Yu looked like a mighty commander.

“Is he really a lost child? As if he was a different person.” Suesha was thinking about the change that Xiao Yu was going through. It seemed like he was a hero who had taken on the responsibility of saving the city. But the next moment, he discovered that Xiao Yu's eyes were secretly directed toward the thigh of the female archer next to him.

The wind was blowing over the wall. As a result, the side of the huge robe exploded and Tyrande's thigh opened.

Xiao Yu's saliva flowed in the wine glass.

"A dog can't help but eat shit." Suesha cursed furiously. He got down quickly through the stairs to tell his sister about the good news.

Suesha slammed the hall door. The four brothers were sitting around a simple round table. There's honey juice on the table. They are waiting for the outcome of the battle.

They will drink it when the city is broken into.

Housekeeper Hong stood beside the woman. The hall was filled with a gloomy aura.

“First sister, Second sister, Third sister, Fifth sister.” Suesha rushes in. His clothes were covered in blood after the battle.

“The fourth sister, did they enter the city? We heard their cheers and we will die together today. Come, join us.” Brother-in-law Xiao Yu, Yin sighed and took a pot of honey juice. He started pouring it into the bowl in front of everyone.

"No! Our sister won! We have defeated Carrie's army!” Suesha blocked Yin when she saw him pouring poison.

"What?" The four women and Housekeeper Hong were shocked when they saw Suesha.

“Fourth brother, are you confused? We don't have a decent army. How can we defeat Carrie's army?” Sister Yin asked.

He could not believe Suesha's words.

"Yes brother! The prodigal son had hired a group of mercenaries who had orc soldiers. We defeated Carrie's army and they retreated.” Suesha quickly explained.

"What's? Xiao Yu had hired the orc mercenaries.” Qiyin and the other women turned to look at Suesha.

They could understand he was hiring mercenaries. But orcs?! Isn't the orc extinct?

Suesha quickly came to the table and threw away the pot full of poison: “I don't know how the lost boy hired the Orcs but we defeated Carrie's army. Check outside! We are all celebrating a win.”

The complete adage used by Suesha (Xue Sha) is “Dogs inevitably eat shit; leopards cannot change their spots.” <- I believe there is no need to explain what it means…
