Online Game Bandit Empire

"My lord, tomorrow we can launch the final attack on the enemy's earthen castle at the top of the mountain. Gongsun continued to say excitedly.

"Haha, that's good. No one can show it. When I return to Changli City, I will ask the court for credit for everyone. "

After six consecutive days of non-stop attacks day and night, we finally succeeded in clearing all the arrow towers and forts on the mountain range where the main village of Wulong Village is located, and tomorrow, we can launch a final attack on the mountain thief earth city on the top of the mountain. As long as the mountaintop Tucheng is taken, the combat goal this time will be basically completed. All that remains is to wipe out the other weaker cottages in the mountains, but the biggest bandit has been killed, and the remaining small fish and shrimp are not a problem.

Six days of mountain warfare, the sacrifice of the crusading army is staggering. Only more than 60,000 of the 200,000 player legions remained, and the officers and soldiers also lost more than 50,000, and the total loss of troops exceeded 200,000. Although the combat mission was successfully completed, only more than 40,000 bandits were killed, and excluding some of the troops that were held back on other hills, it is estimated that there are still about 100,000 fierce bandits in Tucheng on the top of the mountain.

The earthen city on the top of the mountain, the city wall is 2 zhang high, not too high, but extremely thick; it is built with hard loess mixed with gravel, mixed with lime, animal blood, and glutinous rice juice; the defense is very strong, compared with most of the stone city walls, it is not inferior in any way.

It is quite difficult to capture such a Tucheng located on the top of a mountain, and it is garrisoned by 100,000 fierce mountain bandits, and a large number of heavy siege equipment cannot be transported to it.

Most of the player legions used to be used as cannon fodder have died, and it seems that this final siege, the army of Changli City is about to face great sacrifices. However, as long as he can capture Oolong Village and die with 200,000 troops, Li Tianlong can accept it so-so, although there is still a faint pain in his heart.

"Your Excellency, the Vulture Knight has an important military report. "

Come in. "

At this time, what important military information do the Great Vulture Knights have, Li Tianlong was puzzled and asked the guards to bring the Great Vulture Knight in.

"My lord, it's not a good thing. We found that in the surrounding mountains and forests, there were a large number of mountain bandits secretly surrounding Wulong Village. The captain of the Great Vulture Knight Squad said with a worried face.

"What? How many people are there, and what is the strength?" Li Tianlong was shocked.

"It is estimated that there are at least 300,000 mountain bandits, eighty percent of whom are ironclad infantry and twenty percent are ironclad horse bandits.

"Why didn't you find out until now? Don't you fly in the sky every day?"

"It's also our negligence. The bandits did a great job of concealment, and I suppose the enemy lurked during the day and traveled at night, thus avoiding the detection of our great vultures. "

How far away are the bandits from us now?"

and "The enemy is coming at us in a semi-circle, and the nearest is about 30 miles away from us."

"Semi-circular, there are no bandits coming from the back mountain?"

"No, the bandits are surrounding our troops in the front mountain. "

Hmph, knowing that my main force is in front, do you want to concentrate your strength to defeat my main force in one fell swoop?

"Is the enemy still advancing?"

"It has been observed that the enemy is resting, presumably moving after dark. "

Calm down, calm down, you have to be calm. Li Tianlong paced back and forth in the military tent, grandma's, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. I didn't expect that the bandits of Wuwu Mountain would have such strength and courage, and they would unknowingly surround hundreds of thousands of their own officers and soldiers, did they want to wipe out our hundreds of thousands of imperial army in Wuwu Mountain? When did the bandits have such great courage?

Although there were a large number of bandits entrenched in all the mountains, rivers and lakes in the thirteen states of the Eastern Han Dynasty, looting villages and robbing caravans, there were definitely not many bandits who dared to take the initiative to attack the imperial army, especially the elite army that took the initiative to attack hundreds of thousands. Only a handful of powerful and ambitious rebels dared to do so, like the Yellow Turbans.

It seems that he kicked the iron foot board this time, and the bandits in this oolong village are very unusual.

Grandma's, it's really dangerous. If it weren't for the Great Vulture Knight to discover these guys in time, he would really be caught off guard by these insidious bandits this time, with the strong strength of the bandits, it is really possible to leave his hundreds of thousands of troops in Wuxian Mountain forever.

"Someone, please Captain Gongsun, Captain Zhao Song, Captain Zhao Fan, Captain Zhang Ren, Captain Duan Qili, and the Commander of the Inhuman Legion Command Blade, hurry up. "

Yes, sir. "

Send the Great Vulture Knight to Changli City, pass on my order, let Shi Dang lead 30,000 Xianbei cavalry, 50,000 Karasuma iron cavalry, and 150,000 heavy spear iron cavalry on the road at night, fifty miles outside the mountain, behind the tail of the ambushed bandits. "Grandma, if you want to pinch me, then I'll give you a counter-pinch. A hundred miles away, the big vulture can fly to Changli City in just half an hour to inform the remaining general Shidang.

These guys probably didn't expect that our Great Vulture Cavalry had already discovered them.

"Yes, sir.

After a while, several high-ranking generals of the crusading army quickly came to the Chinese military tent, and everyone was shocked when they learned that there were more than 300,000 ironclad bandits surrounding them not far away.

"My lord, the enemy army is strong, and it is best to retreat to avoid the enemy's front. Zhao Fan said.

"Cowardly guy"; although the situation is critical, Li Tianlong has no intention of retreating. Spent a lot of military salaries, food and arrows, and killed 200,000 troops, if you retreat and evacuate Wushu Mountain, it will not be a loss of face, how to intimidate the generals and soldiers under your command, how to make a name for yourself in Liaodong, how to prestige Youzhou, and how to ask for merit from the imperial court.

Although there were more than 300,000 enemy troops, plus the bandits on the mountains, there were still about 500,000 mountain bandit troops; moreover, most of these mountain bandit troops were ironclad bandits, and the rest were also ninety percent of the middle-level troops, and their combat effectiveness was very strong. However, the Qianshan army still has 30,000 heavy spearmen, 60,000 heavy shield and sword soldiers, 60,000 heavy archers and crossbowmen, 30,000 heavy spear iron cavalry, 20,000 Xianbei rangers, more than 2,500 bed crossbows, and 60,000 elite player troops. Most of the dead troops were player legions, and the strength of the entire team did not take a big hit. Although there is a disadvantage in quantity, but in terms of quality, the army of Changli City is all high-level troops, and the remaining players are also elite players of Liaodong vassal countries, with this strength, they are completely able to fight against the mountain bandit army. Counting the cavalry clusters of Changli City that can arrive before dawn, it is just right to take down the largest bandit force in Wuxian Mountain.

Li Tianlong is determined to exterminate the Oolong Village and take down the Wuxian Mountain. Even the troops that remain here may immediately be caught inside and outside by the bandits, and suffer heavy losses. There is a good saying, there is no gain without effort, and where can you succeed without sacrifice. If you give up this time, the next time you come to attack the bandits, the defense will definitely be tighter and stronger, the army on the mountain will be more, and the price you will need to pay will be even greater.

"Don't worry, I've already sent the Great Vulture Knight to Changli City, and the reinforcements from Changli City will arrive soon, and the time will be right to wipe out the bandits.

"My lord, the sun is about to set, will the bandits attack us at night, or will they attack us tomorrow during the day when we attack the mountain?"

"It is very likely that tonight, the bandits are only thirty miles away from us, and they can arrive in an hour. They didn't know that we had spotted them, and it was likely that they were attacking us while we were lax in the night.

Immediately go back and set up your defenses. Gongsun Xu was responsible for the defense of the main peak of Wulong Village, and all the single-bow bed crossbows of the whole army were carried to the mountain, and a large number of crossbowmen were arranged to arrange multiple blockade lines on the hillside, and the bandits on the mountain would definitely take advantage of the situation to counterattack at that time. The rest of the bed crossbows were all arranged on the periphery and aimed in the direction of the enemy's attack. The whole army was ordered not to take off their armor during the night's rest, and to place their blades with them. . . "

Yes, sir. "

The defense in the army is naturally arranged by the captains, and Li Tianlong flew to the back mountain of Wulong Village on a big vulture to meet the captain Wang Men, who is responsible for the attack and defense of the back mountain.

"Immediately withdraw all the troops to the high ground one mile behind, and arrange them in defensive sniper formation. Tomorrow, after our army destroys the enemy attacking from the front mountain, the enemy on the mountain is likely to abandon the city and flee from the back mountain. At that time, the task of blocking the way of the bandits will be in charge of Captain Wang. There are few soldiers in the back mountains, and Captain Wang has a heavy burden.

"Don't worry, if you let a thief go, your lord will punish me.

"Okay, tomorrow all the thieves will be annihilated and Beizhen Mountain will be subdued, and Captain Wang should make a great contribution." "

Under the command of the generals, the soldiers scattered a large number of thistles around the barracks in a nervous and orderly manner, dug thousands of pits, filled the pits with sharpened bamboo tubes, dug the trenches deep again, and laid countless dangerous traps in the camp with a large number of logs and earthen ramparts. Double-bow bed crossbow, three-bow bed crossbow is placed on a high platform, the crossbow has been wound, just wait for the bed crossbowman to hammer down, there will be thousands of crossbow guns roaring towards the bandits...

The whole army nervously prepared for two hours of defense, everything was in order, extinguished the bonfire, and waited for the bandits to come and attack.

At three o'clock, there was a slight but dense rustling sound from the woods around the camp, and with the help of the dim starlight, a large number of black shadows could be seen crawling out of the woods and slowly touching the camp.

Due to the large area of the camp, the thistles and traps are densely arranged within ten zhang of the camp, and the bandits secretly advance without touching the trap.

One hundred, eighty, fifty, twenty, ten, the hideous smile on the thief's face is clearly visible. "Plop", "plop"... Entering the tent of thousands of pits, the bandits fell into the pits. Although the sharpened bamboo sticks were not enough to pierce the iron armor on the bandits, the footsteps of the bandits were ordinary cloth shoes (except for a small number of generals), and the footsteps of the bandits who fell into the pit were pierced by the dense sharp bamboo sticks at the bottom of the pit, and a shocking scream suddenly sounded.

"Get in, brothers. The leader of a mountain thief shouted.

The attacking bandits are the elite forces hidden in the shadows of Oolong Village, far from being comparable to ordinary thieves. The pit did not frighten them, and it was only ten feet away from the gate of the enemy's camp, so it was said that it was a successful sneak attack, and the enemy found it too late. Ten zhang distance, all at once, charged over, and the enemy found that it was too late to react. A few traps are not a big deal, at most a few people will die, and how many pits can be dug at a distance of ten zhang.

The hordes of bandits roared loudly and rushed towards the enemy's camp in front of them from all directions. But the bandits despised the pit beneath their feet.

In two hours, more than half of the 200,000 troops were digging pits, and the number of pits within ten zhang of the camp exceeded 100,000. Numerous pits of the camp were scattered around the camp, covered with weak branches and covered with a layer of turf. The pit is very rough and easy to spot if it is broad daylight. But in the middle of the night, when there are only three or two small stars, it is a very powerful weapon.

The ironclad bandits who charged quickly with steel knives fell into the pit, making the bandits' charging formation extremely chaotic, although few people died at the bottom of the pit. But the important thing is that the bandits can't rush across the distance of ten zhang at once and attack the camp.

At this time, a large number of fires and torches were quickly lit in the camp, and the soldiers had already stood on their respective defensive posts under the leadership of their respective generals.

Because it was a war with mountain bandits, the fortifications of the camp were very simple, and only a half-man high earthen fortress was built on the periphery of the camp. There was also a shallow trench in the lower part of the earthen ramparts. It is said that if the bandits had not been discovered early and a large number of pits had been dug around the camp, the bandits would have been able to charge directly to the camp. With the strength of these level 60 ironclad bandits, a simple jump can jump over a half-man-high earthen rampart and rush into the camp, which is very dangerous.

Behind the earthen ramparts, countless heavy archers and crossbowmen had already set up arrows and stretched their strings, aiming ahead, just waiting for the command of the general to give an order.

"Rain of arrows

", "rapid fire

", "powerful shooting", "rapid shooting"

...

With the skill bonus of the crossbowmen generals, the rain of arrows and crossbows kept raining down on the bandit troops. There is no need to aim at all, the bandits who are in the dark right now, no matter where the arrow hits, will definitely hit. Although the bandits who came to attack were all the elite forces hidden in Oolong Village, all of them were wearing high-grade iron armor, and their defense was quite strong. However, Li Tianlong's crossbowmen were all heavy archers and strong crossbowmen above level 60, and the penetrating power of the arrows was quite powerful, especially at such a close distance.

The bandits originally had the idea of a sneak attack, and they crushed the Han army, which had been exhausted from many days of fighting, at once. Su Fufeng, the owner of Wulongzhai Dazhai, thought that he was acting secretly, thought that he had a plan, and victory was in sight, but he did not expect that the Han people had discovered his plan. If the sneak attack is successful, a large number of ironclad bandits will definitely be able to crush the Han camp at once, but now, the dense formation has become the perfect target for the Han army.

In the darkness of the night, the overwhelming rain of arrows caused the bandits to fall one by one. Hu was an offensive man by nature, and his troops were mostly aggressive, and he rarely used defensive equipment such as shields. The elite forces of this group of oolong villages are the same. A large number of ironclad bandits wielded their broadswords and iron spears in vain to block the incoming strong bows and crossbows, but in the darkness, the pitch-black arrows were already difficult to see. Listening to the wind and distinguishing the sound, but now on the battlefield with more than 500,000 troops, listening to the wind and distinguishing the sound, it must at least be a prefecture-level military general to be able to do it.

In the first wave of shooting, at least 10,000 ironclad bandits were killed or seriously injured by arrows. The second wave, the third wave ... With the continuous shooting of the heavy archers and crossbowmen, in just two incense sticks, the rapid fire of more than a million arrows and crossbow guns made the bandits fall all over the place within a hundred feet around the camp, whether it was a corpse or a thief who still had a breath, their bodies were densely filled with arrows and crossbow guns.

The so-called one step difference, 100 steps difference. First of all, the extremely dense impact formation of bandits has become a perfect target for arrows. Moreover, out of the arrangement of sneak attacks, the charging troops arranged by Su Fufeng in front were all melee troops armed with swords, guns, swords and hammers, and all of them had strong assault capabilities. The crossbowmen of the sneak attack force were all at the rear, and after being blocked by the hundreds of thousands of traps, Li Tianlong's crossbowmen could shoot as much as they wanted.

Nearly 100,000 powerful ironclad mountain bandits, but in just two incense sticks, they completely fell under the rain of arrows of the Changli City army. Although there are still a large number of bandits who have only been shot and fallen to the ground and have not died, it is only a matter of time.

This result was unexpected by both sides. It's just that the army of Changli City was overjoyed, and Su Fufeng of Wulong Village was already angry.

The bandits, who were stunned by the Han army's arrow rain offensive, temporarily stopped the charge. However, the Wulongzhai bandits on Wuxian Mountain were also as Li Tianlong expected, and a large number of ironclad bandits poured out from the top of the mountain and rushed towards the bottom of the mountain. However, under the command of Gongsun Xu, who had been prepared for a long time, although there were few men and horses, with a large number of bed crossbows and crossbowmen, they gave the mountain bandits a head-on attack.

"What should I do, my lord?" asked the leader.

Su Fufeng made dumplings this time and planned to take down the Han army in one horse. All the elite forces hidden in the dark of Wulong Village were brought over, a full 400,000 ironclad bandits. Among them, 200,000 melee troops, 100,000 ironclad horse bandits, and 100,000 ironclad archers. Unexpectedly, in just a few minutes, the 100,000 ironclad mountain bandits were over.

"Your Majesty, do you want to wait until dawn to make plans?" suggested one of the leaders.

"The brothers on the hill have already begun to counterattack, and when dawn comes, something may happen. Su Fufeng said viciously: "Pass the order and let the archers speed up." When the archers come up, attack immediately. "

Su Fufeng was also beaten by Li Tianlong, and his heart hurt with blood, and the 100,000 ironclad infantry disappeared like this. If he doesn't kill the hateful Han people in front of him and avenge his dead brother, he Su Fufeng will not be the king of Wulong Village, and he will not be the overlord of this Wuxian Mountain.

Wait for your own archers to come up, and let these damn Han people live to see how good our Karasuma archers are.

After a while, the 100,000 Karasuma archers in the back arrived at the front. If the sneak attack fails, it will attack in a dignified manner.

More than half of Su Fufeng's 100,000 Karasuma archers are high-level archers above level 60, and due to the talent bonus of Karasuma people's good archery, they are a few points more powerful than the level 60 heavy archers in Zhichang Li City. However, fortunately, the command ability of the Hu generals is far inferior to that of the Han people, and it is rare to know the skills of the archers and troops such as the war skill "Arrow Rain". It is difficult for a single archer to defeat the Hu people against Han soldiers of the same level, but ninety percent of the large-scale archer troops often win against Han Chinese archers.

"Shooting"

Under the suppression of the fire of the Karasuma archers, the ironclad bandits of Oolong Village began to charge again.

In the face of the firing of 100,000 archers in Wulong Village, the casualties of the soldiers in the camp rose rapidly. The crossbowmen on the edge of the ramparts couldn't fire their arrows as much as they had before. Moreover, a large number of traps have also been filled with the corpses of thousands of Wulongzhai bandits. It can't be as big as it used to be.

The crossbowmen stepped back, and the heavy pikemen stepped forward.

Under the command of the general, the crossbowmen quickly retreated from the earthen ramparts, and the heavy spearmen behind stepped forward quickly, tens of thousands of heavy spears two feet long were firmly leaning against the earthen ramparts, and the sharp iron spear heads emitted a chilling light under the reflection of the firelight.

Behind the heavy spear formation of the earthen fortress were the crossbowmen who had just withdrawn, and they were still casting their bows and arrows.

"Kill"

finally charged to the bottom of the earthen fortress, and the ironclad bandits shouted, and jumped to the top of the earthen fortress one after another, and started a close combat with the Han heavy spearmen.

"Kill", the bandits in Wulong Village are fierce, but the army of Changli City is not vegetarian. They have been stationed at the border for a long time, fighting against the Hu people, and they are all quite fierce, and a forest-like * spear head stabbed out into the air.

More and more ironclad mountain bandits rushed under the earthen fortress and jumped on the earthen fortress to fight the heavy spearmen of Changli City. The archers of Wulongzhai also approached step by step with the troops, and started shooting against the Han archers.

The low earthen fortresses could not stop the fierce bandits, and many of the bandits were armed with high walls, many of which were broken by the enemy, and more and more ironclad bandits poured into the camp.

Under the dim starlight, the dim light of the fire swayed with the mountain wind, and the soldiers of both sides launched a fierce battle of life and death. Fortunately, this piece of land is also the usual training place for hundreds of thousands of bandits in Wulong Village, and the place has been repaired to be very wide to accommodate the fight of hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides.

"Why are these bandits so powerful, and their combat effectiveness is not inferior to the army of Changli City", observing this battle, Li Tianlong was secretly frightened. Li Tianlong found that he still underestimated such bandits, and originally thought that his army was all high-level soldiers above level 60, and it was not easy to beat these mountain bandits. Now look at this group of mountain bandits, whether it is equipment or combat effectiveness, they can compete with the well-equipped Eastern Han Dynasty border soldiers, no wonder Wulongzhai can become the overlord of Wuxian Mountain, no wonder these guys dare to have such courage to sneak attack themselves.

Hmph, no matter how powerful you bandits are, when dawn comes, the 30,000 Xianbei rangers, 50,000 Karasuma iron horses, and 150,000 heavy spear iron horses in Changli City will arrive, and it will be time for you Wulongzhai people to die and destroy the village. Grandma's, it looks like I'm almost done with my troops here. Looking behind the enemy, there was still a large group of ironclad horse bandits who were pressed by the black pressure and did not move.
