Online Game: Barbarism And Civilization

Chapter 1158

After the end of the war surrounding Luqiao Town and the Colorful Bridge, both the defeated Dashi Kingdom and the defeated Northern Expedition allied forces seemed to have acquiesced to this result.

After returning to Taiping Town, Xiong Xiaoguang and others immediately sent the detailed report and analysis of the next battle to Xiong Dashi’s table.

Both Xiong Xiaoguang and Lang Wushen advocated a battle against the Northern Expedition in Taiping Town.

To the west of Taiping Town is Jining City, the straight line distance between the two is 22 kilometers, the east is Zoucheng, the straight line distance between the two is 18 kilometers, and the straight north is Yanzhou City, the straight line between the two The distance is 23 kilometers.

The town of Luqiao, which was reoccupied by the Northern Expedition, is located just south of Taiping Town and is slightly westward, with a straight-line distance of 16 kilometers between the two.

Taiping Town is backed by Yanzhou City and is guarded by Jining City and Zou City on the left and right.

If they deploy heavy troops in Taiping Town and build fortifications there to turn Taiping Town into a strong fortress, then the Northern Expedition coalition forces want to continue their offensive, they must first break Taiping Town.

If the Northern Expedition can’t attack Taiping Town, they will not be able to attack Jining City and Zoucheng, let alone bypass Taiping Town to attack Yanzhou.

Therefore, Wolf Wuyi and Xiong Xiaoguang both hope that Xiong Dashi can transfer all the other armies of the Dashi Kingdom to the main battle zone consisting of Taiping Town, Jining, Zoucheng and Yanzhou on the premise of defending the defense line of the Grand Canal, where they will fight the Northern Expedition. The coalition forces fight to the death.

After reading the letter sent by Xiong Xiaoguang, Xiong Dashi immediately returned to the state of commanding the decisive orc.

He only left five thousand bear guards in Yinshan Town to guard the Yellow River Corridor north of Mount Tai, and left enough river guard troops along the Grand Canal, and then led all other troops to Taiping Town. The main theater in which it is located.

At this stage of the war, the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the Dashi Kingdom.

After the whereabouts of the two hundred thousand orc elite led by Lang Xiaotian was unknown, Xiong Dashi knew that he had no retreat.

Now he either relied on his own power to defeat the Northern Expeditionary Forces and smashed into the sky, or he could only kneel down in front of Ning Yuan, praying for Ning Yuan’s forgiveness like a pug, and then open the door to let the troops of the Condor Empire come in.

Xiong Dashi also fought all the way from the sea of ​​corpses. He was unwilling to bow his head to Ning Yuan and became the mascot that was raised by Ning Yuan, so he finally chose to rely on his own power to fight out the sky.

After the decisive battle between Xiong Dashi’s troops and the Northern Expedition coalition in the Taipingzhen theater, the hinterland of the Dashi Kingdom has completely become an undefended existence. As long as the Condor Empire is willing, they can land on the Dashi Kingdom from sea or water at any time.

Of course Xiong Dashi knew that this would have huge disadvantages, but when he had decided not to bow his head to Ning Yuan, he had no choice.

If he continues to guard against the Eagle Empire, then facing the all-out Northern Expedition forces, they will likely be chased by the enemy all the way into the hinterland of the Great Stone Kingdom.

If they want to withstand the attack of the Northern Expedition, or even turn defeat into victory and defeat the opponent, they must concentrate all their strength and cannot have the slightest reservation.

Therefore, Xiong Dashi is betting that the Condor Empire will always be watching the excitement, and betting that they will not suddenly stab himself back.

If he wins the bet, then he still has a glimmer of hope of a comeback.

If he loses the bet and the Great Stone Kingdom is eventually backstabbed by the Condor Empire, then he will go directly to the enemy and fight the Condor Empire with the Northern Expedition Allied Forces.In short, he has given up his old life, so no matter what the result is, he can accept it with pleasure, because he has tried his best to fight for it, and even if it fails, he won’t have too much regret.

While Xiong Dashi was heading towards Taiping Town’s war zone, the Northern Expedition Army, which regained the Colorful Bridge, was also continuously transporting troops and food supplies to Luqiao Town.

As the area behind Luqiao Town was limited in area and could not accommodate too many troops, the Northern Expeditionary Army also chose the elite route this time.

In order to defeat the Dashi Kingdom army in Taiping Town, they transferred all the elites under their hands, which meant that they would be desperate, not breaking Loulan and not paying it back.

Both the enemy and us know very well that the battle surrounding Taiping Town will be a protracted battle, ranging from ten days and a half months to as long as six months and a year. Therefore, while transporting troops to the front, they Constantly transporting a large amount of grain and grass materials to the front line.

After ten days of peace, the Northern Expedition, which had already prepared almost the same, took the first step in the offensive.

Under the command of Lu Chenguang, the 200,000 Northern Expedition Allied Forces walked out from behind the dilapidated gate of Luqiao Town.

Among them, Lu Chenguang personally led the main force of 100,000 to Xiezhuang Village, only three kilometers away from Taiping Town.

The other two roads are Qian Xiaohao’s 50,000 army who is stationed in Shiqiao Town and Luo Jiacheng’s 50,000 army who is stationed in Tangcun Town.

As for Sun Junyi and others who have been able to guard the bridge, they collectively retreated to the second line and became a member of the think tank of Lu Chenguang and others.

Facing the northern expedition forces that came out of Luqiao Town, the troops stationed in the Dashi Kingdom did not respond at all. They all followed Xiong Dashi’s orders and stayed quietly in their own defense zone, waiting for the enemy to take the initiative to attack. come over.

After seeing that the orc army in the Dashi Kingdom did not respond, Lu Chenguang and the others did not rush to launch an offensive.

They also began to build fortifications in Xiezhuang Village, Tangcun Town and Shiqiao Town, and confronted the orc army hiding behind the fortifications in the distance.

The main attack point of the Northern Expedition coalition forces this time is Xiezhuang Village where Lu Chenguang is located. Xiezhuang Village is only three kilometers away from Taiping Town. As long as both of them are willing, the battle can start directly at any time.

As for Luo Jiacheng and Qian Xiaohao, who are located in Tangcun Town and Shiqiao Town, their main task is not to attack, but to defend.

The two of them are not only responsible for protecting the flanks of Lu Chenguang’s army, but also responsible for blocking the enemies in Jining and Zoucheng to support Taiping Town.

As for Yanzhou City to the north of Taiping Town, Lu Chenguang and others could do nothing.

Before taking Taiping Town, they did not even dare to send cavalry around Taiping Town to harass the enemy’s rear. The reason is no other reason. The city here is too dense. If you don’t pay attention, the cavalry who goes deep into the enemy’s hinterland may be caught. The enemy made dumplings.

In a war, intelligence is a very important part, and the accuracy of intelligence can even directly influence the trend of a war.

Although the battle between the Northern Expedition and the Great Stone Kingdom has not yet officially started, the owl scout teams of the enemy and ours have already been killed.

Xiong Dashi knew that the number of owl scouts on his side was not as large as the Northern Expedition Allied Forces, so he concentrated all the owl scouts above Taiping Town, allowing the owl scouts to rely on Taiping Town to resist the infiltration of local scouts.

Under normal circumstances, flying units that can only fly at low altitudes are afraid to easily fly into the enemy’s strongholds, because the long-range firepower in the strongholds can kill them at any time, but the Dashi Kingdom is an exception.

Due to the relatively single race of orcs within the Dashi Kingdom, they not only severely lack craftsmen who can build weapons and equipment, but also lack soldiers who can use long-range weapons, so their air defense capabilities are simply terrible.

Facing the Northern Expedition Allied Owl scouts who invaded the airspace of Taiping Town, thousands of werewolf fighters were shooting randomly with their captured bows and arrows.

The palms of the werewolf warriors are very special. Each finger has long and sharp nails. The presence of the nails seriously affects their posture in controlling the tail of the arrow, so the arrows they shoot have no accuracy at all.

Compared with the werewolf warriors who can barely bend their bows and shoot arrows, the huge palms of the bear warriors basically make them miss the bow and arrow.

Therefore, as long as the Northern Expedition Allied Owl scouts who invaded the sky above Taiping Town were not particularly unlucky and hit the arrow themselves, they could basically ignore the attacks from below.

Seeing that the werewolf warriors who appeared as archers on their own side were very ineffective, Xiong Dashi had no choice but to let the few owl scouts of his side land down, and completely gave up the airspace to the Northern Expedition Allied Forces.

Seeing that the owl scouts of the Northern Expedition Army just kept circling in the air and did not make any other actions, Xiong Dashi couldn’t help but rejoice in secret:

Fortunately, because of their own reasons, the owl family cannot fly in the air with torches. Otherwise, after losing air supremacy, if the enemy’s owl scouts set fire everywhere, they would definitely have enough to drink a pot for themselves.

Anyway, what I should arrange has already been arranged. If the enemy wants to see clearly, then let them be optimistic. It is impossible that Taiping Town can be seen only by looking.

This time, I brought most of the main force of the Bear Guards to Taiping Town, in order to rely on the fortifications of Taiping Town to defend.

How about the Northern Expedition coalition even if they knew the composition of their own Taiping Town’s forces?

If they want to break through Taiping Town, they have to come and fight with real swords and guns to defeat the Bear Guards under their command.

If the Northern Expedition can’t defeat the Own Guards in the front, they can only go as far as they can go.

It was precisely out of his trust in the Bear Guards Corps under his command that Xiong Dashi was not afraid that the owl scouts of the Northern Expedition Allied Forces would see his troops deployed in Taiping Town.

……

“Report~~~, the enemy’s troop layout in Taiping Town has been drawn up, President Lu please have a look.”

After obtaining absolute air supremacy, the owl scouts of the Northern Expedition Allied Forces quickly drew a plan of the troops in Taiping Town and gave it to Lu Chenguang.

After hanging up the troop layout, Lu Chenguang and his own think tank members began to watch carefully.

When Lu Chenguang discovered that the Dashi Kingdom had deployed a large number of bear-man heavy infantry outside of Taiping Town, he was just like Sun Junyi at the time, his face was full of helplessness.

According to the careful inventory of the owl scouts, there are a total of 100,000 bear soldiers around Taiping Town, of which about 50,000 are in heavy infantry equipment.

In addition, there is a 30,000 werewolf army in Taiping Town, and there is a 100,000 werewolf army in Pingyangsi Town behind Taiping Town.

Taiping Town is only seven kilometers away from Pingyangsi Town. If there is a danger in Taiping Town, the werewolf army in Pingyangsi Town will be able to support it soon.

The Dashi Kingdom has deployed a total of 100,000 bears and 130,000 werewolves in Taiping Town and Pingyangsi Town, including 50,000 bears heavy infantry. This Xiong Dashi is afraid that it will not bring the entire Dashi Kingdom’s army. Come here!

On their side, the Tauren heavy infantry army of 25,000 people, the dwarf heavy infantry army of 25,000 people, the Elf Wandering Xia army of 40,000 people, five thousand heavy cavalry, and five thousand light cavalry, a total of only ten. Ten thousand people.As the offensive side, you want to use an army of 100,000 to attack a position defended by 230,000. Unless the quality gap between the enemy and our army is very different, it is basically impossible to succeed. .

No wonder the Sun family brothers and Wu Qitian stopped attacking after retaking Luqiao Town. It turns out that the real difficulty of The Underworld is ahead!

“Everyone, don’t worry about pretending to be deep, let’s talk about own views, and talk about how we should fight this battle.”

After sighing lightly, Lu Chenguang finally decided to listen to the opinions of the think tank members first.

“President, now the number of enemy troops in Taiping Town is obviously more than us. If I’m not wrong, the Bearman Heavy Infantry Corps on the opposite side should be the Bearman Guards Corps under Xiong Dashi.

The strength of the Bear Guards Corps can be said to be comparable to our Tauren Heavy Infantry Corps, but their number is significantly greater than our Tauren Heavy Infantry Corps.

Therefore, when the enemy and our main battle corps are almost the same in strength, it is basically impossible for us to win more with less. The solution for this is to continue to increase troops in the front area and fight a war of attrition with the enemy. ”

Seeing Lu Chenguang’s question, Wu Jun, who had a somewhat upright personality, gave the most direct answer.

After listening to Wu Jun’s answer, Lu Chenguang squeezed out a smile, looked at other people and continued to ask: “Does anyone have any other opinions?”

Seeing that everyone else was silent, Lu Chenguang turned his gaze to Sun Junyi and asked, “Junyi, you just fought against the enemy in Luqiao Town. You should know the enemy’s strength better than we do.

If you were to take charge of this battle, how would you choose to fight this battle?

It doesn’t matter, here are all your own people, you can speak freely, no one will blame you. ”

Seeing that Sun Junyi wanted to speak and hesitated, Lu Chenguang immediately signaled him to speak boldly.

After receiving Lu Chenguang’s encouraging eyes, Sun Junyi cleared his throat and said loudly: “President, everyone can think of the tactics for increasing troops to fight attrition. I won’t say more. Now I’ll talk about using this. One hundred thousand people attacked the enemy’s 230,000 people.

As the offensive, our forces are only half of the enemy’s. This is very unfavorable to us, because the enemy is now defending and we have to attack.

Under such circumstances, it is not a wise move to consume troops with the enemy, so we must find a way to attack the enemy actively. ”

“Oh? Then you can think of how to let the enemy take the initiative to attack?”

Hearing Sun Junyi’s different opinions, Lu Chenguang’s eyes suddenly brightened.

“It’s very simple. The Dashi Kingdom is the weakest item. We will seize the weakest item and beat them to death.” Sun Junyi said with a smile.

“Are you talking about long-range attacks? But the bear guards under Xiong Dashi’s hands are not afraid of long-range attacks.”

Hearing Sun Junyi’s prompt, Lu Chenguang quickly thought of an answer, but he immediately denied the answer.

“President, the bearmen heavy infantry are just not afraid of the conventional long-range attack methods of bows and arrows. They can guard against bows and arrows, but they can’t guard against catapults.

No matter how well equipped the bearmen’s heavy infantry are, they can’t stand up to the boulders thrown by the trebuchets, so we can set up a trebuchet position in front of Xiezhuang Village and smash the enemy out with stones. ”

Seeing that Lu Chenguang could not think of the correct answer, Sun Junyi immediately announced it.
