《Rise of the Horde 》Chapter 51
Advertisement
For the past few days, the residents of the village spent their time waiting and preparing for their foes.
Trot'thar up high in the watchtower saw a massive low cloud of dust to the east. Straining his eyes, he finally saw clearly what they were. Goblins, thousands of goblins whose skins seem dried up, cracked in many places oozing black liquid and some parts of their body rotting.
Picking up the battle horn, he blew it as hard as he can and a long deep sound echoed through the village, alerting everybody of the enemies' presence.
"Finally!!!"
Galum'nor bellowed as he stood up from where he was lazily resting at because of boredom. The warriors of Yohan quickly assembled and proceeded towards the walls. The others gathered at the end of the entrances where they will hold the enemies.
"Move your asses!!! The enemies have come!!!"
Sakh'arran shouted. The ogres and taurens guarded one gateway each, while the Yohan First Battalion guarded two. Positioned at the back of the taurens and ogres were also a group of orc warriors as a backup plan, just in case the ogres and taurens get so excited while in battle that they forget about the plan.
Xiao Chen quickly ascended towards the walls through the concrete stairs that were attached to the walls. There, he saw thousands of goblins slowly marching forward in a massive single formation.
"Prepare the big boys!"
Xiao Chen yelled towards those handling the huge shotgun crossbows embedded on the walls with concrete to contain its massive recoils and not to throw its operators off the wall. Four feet long iron bolts, and almost five inches in diameter, iron balls then were placed into the magazines of the weapons.
Xiao Chen stared at the flags that were placed far away from the walls which helps in aiding them in knowing that the enemies were within range. He waited for the horde of goblins to cross the mark area first before giving the command to let loose.

Almost about one fourth of the enemy army finally crossed the markers that were placed.
"Make it rain!"
Xiao Chen shouted. Bolts and balls of iron whistled through the air, announcing their presence to the goblins. It was an outstanding sight to behold. Xiao Chen smiled as he watched the iron bolts skewer enemies through and the iron balls shattering the unfortunate ones in its path into a messy pile of flesh and blood.
"Show them the pits of Gehenna!"
Sakh'arran yelled as he watched the fallen goblins get decimated by the raining iron bolts and balls.
"Reload!!! Reload!!!"
Trot'thar shouted in excitement as he felt the thrill of killing enemies with such a weapon. It flushed his face red as he caressed the enormous weapon in front of him.
Trot'thar's partner loaded the iron balls and cranked the lever to cock the huge crossbow. Every time that Trot'thar fires an iron ball, his partner would crank the lever to cock it.
The fallen goblin swarm finally reached the bottom of the walls. They crowded together towards the open gateways, unaware of what was waiting for them.
"Here they come!"
"Ready!!! Aim... Fire!!!"
Maghazz shouted and a hailstorm of a foot long iron bolts and lead pellets peppered the fallen goblins below, injuring and outright killing the unfortunate ones.
"Leave some for us!!!"
Galum'nor yelled towards the orcs on the walls, who had the shotgun crossbows as their weapons. The goblins were being stopped by a wall of iron bolts and lead pellets which stormed them from their left and right.
The taurens, ogres and the Yohan First Battalion on the ground watch as corpses of the fallen goblins slowly piled up a few paces away from them. They just stared at their comrades, enjoying their time atop the walls, felling their foes easily with the new weapon introduced by the chieftain.

"Finally, some action!!!"
Galum'nor muttered as one fallen goblin finally got through the hailstorm of lead and iron unscathed. Raising his weapon, ready to strike down on the lone target that got through.
"Closer"
"Come closer"
"A little closer"
"More"
"Come on"
Galum'nor whispered as the fallen goblin hesitantly inched forward towards the spiked shield wall in front of him. It looks like he was deciding whether or not to charge forward. The iron spikes protruding from the shields in front of him were screaming danger in his mind, but a whisper from within its head told him to attack and charge forward and slay as much as it can.
"Kik...ki!!!"
The fallen goblin screamed its shrieking battle cry as it charged forward towards Galum'nor and the other orcs, who were waiting for any enemy that got through the rain of lead and iron.
"That's it... come on!"
Galum'nor grinned as the lone fallen goblin finally charged forward, his hand gripping his weapon trembled with excitement. The lone goblin was only a few feet away from his weapon's reach, but the fallen goblin's head just shattered into pieces.
"No!!!"
The muscle head howled as his excitement died down and it left his raised weapon hanging in the air without a target.
Blood, flesh and brain matter rained down in front of the disappointed Galum'nor as a lead pellet ricocheted off his iron shield. Raising his head towards the wall, Galum'nor finally saw the culprit. It was an orc warrior belonging to the Azure Dragon group.
The orc warrior who fired the shot met gaze with Galum'nor. He felt goosebumps as he saw the angry eyes of the huge orc through the holes on the helmet that he was wearing. The poor orc warrior forced a smile on his face, then ignored the huge orc staring daggers at him, hoping that the big orc would forget his deed of stealing a target from him.
The taurens remained composed in their formation, just chilling and watching as the fallen goblins get destroyed in front of them by the orcs atop the walls. They leaned on their halberds lazily as they spectate the massacre happening just paces away from them.
