Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

Just when Lang Wubing, Xiong Xiaoguang and the werewolf army who came to support thought that this would be a bloody night, the next move of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance stunned them.

According to Sun Junyi's order, when the sky just turned a little dark, the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces located on the east bank of Dushan Lake shifted to a defensive state.

The several elven legions surrounding Yangshu directly entered Pengzhuang Village and relied on the terrain there for defense.

The Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces that were guarding Jiukongqiao Village also took advantage of the afterglow of the sun to withdraw to Shengjiawu Village near the shore of Dushan Lake to station themselves, completely clearing the way to Pengzhuang Village.

The Minotaur Legion on the Colorful Bridge also retreated nearly a hundred meters, and then defended the bridge.

This series of actions of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance were completely unexpected by Lang Wubing and others. Faced with the encirclement that was immediately broken up, Lang Wubing and others still hesitated and did not dare to act rashly.

"General, we have successfully connected with General Lang Wuque who came to support us.

Now General Lang Wuque is leading an army of 10,000 werewolves entrenched on the outskirts of Jiukongqiao Village. He hopes that we can set off immediately and then evacuate to Luqiao Town with him. "

In order to find out the truth, Lang Wubing sent a large number of werewolf scouts. Soon a group of werewolf scouts who successfully met the werewolf reinforcements brought back the latest information to Lang Wubing.

Hearing that his cousin was leading the army to occupy the outskirts of Jiukongqiao Village, Lang Wubing immediately frowned and asked: "Why don't Lang Wuque and the others come over quickly? Also, didn't he bring 20,000 people with him this time?" Did the werewolf army come? "

"General General, General Lang Wuque has indeed led an army of 20,000 to come to support us.

In order to get to Yangshu as soon as possible, they had a fierce battle with the Northern Expeditionary Army stationed in Jiukongqiao Village during the day, where they lost nearly half of their troops, and ultimately failed to break through Jiukongqiao Village.

In the evening, the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces stationed in Jiukongqiao Village suddenly moved to Shengjiawu two kilometers away.

General Lang Wuque suspected that this was a tactic by the enemy to lure the emperor into a trap. He was worried that if he led the army across the Baima River, the enemy would counterattack Jiukongqiao Village and block our retreat, so he did not dare to lead the army across the Baima River. .

Now General Lang Wuque is leading the army to monitor the enemies in Shengjiawu. He hopes that we can retreat immediately. When the time comes, he will lead the army to cover us across the Baima River. "

The werewolf scout answered honestly.

Hearing that Lang Wuque had lost nearly half of his army in the daytime battle, Lang Wubing and Xiong Xiaoguang immediately looked at each other, and then both showed a wry smile.

Although they had decided to break out and retreat at night, this was just a helpless move.

If reinforcements can arrive in time, they still want to continue to defend with Yang Shu as the core.

After all, in order to capture Yangshu and Colorful Bridge, they had fought many battles in succession, and their troops had suffered heavy losses. How could they be willing to leave if they were just asked to give up?

It's a pity that when they heard that the 20,000 werewolf army led by Lang Wuque lost half of their troops in just one battle, their only remaining glimmer of hope was immediately shattered.

Although the werewolf scouts did not elaborate on how brutal Lang Wuque's battle was, they could still infer some clues from the results.

First of all, the Jiukong Bridge east of Jiukongqiao Village is the only bridge on this section of the Baima River. Their reinforcements have only two options if they want to cross to the east bank of the Baima River.

One is to storm Jiukongqiao Village and then pass through Jiukongqiao.

The other option is to bypass Jiukongqiao Village, reach the shore of Dushan Lake, and then find a shallow water area at the entrance of the Baima River to wade across the river.

Considering that the Northern Expeditionary Alliance has troops stationed in many villages such as Jiukongqiao Village and Shengjiawu, and that the entire Dushan Lake is under the control of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance transport fleet, the Northern Expeditionary Alliance only needs to deploy an elven army on the east bank of the Baima River Monitoring Lang Wuque’s army,

Lang Wuque would never dare to cross the river.

Therefore, if Lang Wuque wants to lead his army across the Baima River, he must attack Jiukongqiao Village and occupy Jiukongqiao Bridge.

Judging from the fact that half of Lang Wuque's army was lost in a single battle during the day, they must have suffered a major defeat.

From this, Lang Wuque and the others could deduce that the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces defending Jiukongqiao Village must be very powerful, and there might even be a tauren heavy infantry there, otherwise Lang Wuque's army would not have been defeated so miserably.

Secondly, from the fact that the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces stationed in Jiukongqiao Village retreated to Shengjiawu, and then Lang Wuque still did not dare to enter Jiukongqiao Village, it can be inferred that Lang Wuque must have been frightened by the enemy, otherwise he would not have been able to let go The empty Jiukongqiao Village did not dare to enter.

Lang Wuque was so afraid of being made dumplings by the enemy that he only dared to move around the outer areas of Jiukongqiao Village even at night. From this, we can analyze how terrifying the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces that retreated to Shengjiawu was.

The enemy arranged an army with such terrifying strength on the west bank of the Baima River, but did not allow them to wipe out his group in the Yangshu area. They must have had a conspiracy to do so.

"Surround the site for reinforcements?"

"Surround the area and call for reinforcements."

Lang Wubing and Xiong Xiaoguang said these four words almost at the same time, but Lang Wubing's tone was a little uncertain, while Xiong Xiaoguang's tone was full of certainty.

"My young prince, do you also think this is the enemy's plan to encircle the enemy for reinforcements?" Seeing Xiong Xiaoguang and himself thinking together, Lang Wubing immediately asked.

Xiong Xiaoguang nodded slightly and replied: "Yes, since the enemy has transported an army of such strength, they can use this army to deal with us. After all, ours is the main battlefield of this battle.

And now the enemy has actually arranged such an army to Jiukongqiao Village to deal with our reinforcements. This shows that the enemy does not want to eliminate us immediately.

In addition, it can be seen from the fact that the enemy besieged us from a distance with rain of arrows this afternoon that they do not want to engage in close combat with us, because only in close combat can they break through our defense lines and completely eliminate us.

At that time, I could clearly see from the Yangshu platform that the enemy's elf warriors were just shooting indiscriminately in response to the mission, as if they had inexhaustible arrows in their hands.

When the enemy Elf Legion surrounded you, the Minotaur army on the Colorful Bridge also slowed down their offensive. They no longer rushed forward desperately, and no longer engaged in extremely dangerous hand-to-hand combat with us. Stabbing randomly from a distance.

After I discovered that the tauren started paddling, I wanted to send more guards to help you.

However, as soon as I took action, the tauren paddling in the water rushed up again to fight us desperately.

In desperation, I could only transfer those people back.

As a result, as soon as I transferred them back, those damn tauren started paddling again.

It can be seen that after the enemy knows that we cannot cause fatal damage to Yangshu, they are no longer in a hurry to eliminate us.

Now they just want to trap us here, and then use the transport fleet to continuously transport troops from Nanyang Town.

They want to use siege tactics to deprive us of food, and at the same time annihilate some more reinforcements who come to support us, thereby creating a more favorable environment for the next attack. "

"Little prince, I think so too, but there is one thing I just can't figure out.

Since the enemy wants to surround us and use us to encircle us and bring reinforcements, why did they open the door to nothing tonight? Aren't they afraid that we will take the opportunity to escape tonight? "

The reason why Lang Wubing wasn't sure was because the Northern Expeditionary Alliance had a wide open door tonight.

Nowadays, the road from Yangshu to Jiukongqiao Village is smooth. If the enemy wants to use them to encircle the point and bring reinforcements, they should never make such a low-level mistake.

Even if the enemy is afraid of their ability to fight at night and is worried that they will launch a counterattack at night and wants to take a defensive position at night, they will withdraw all their troops to Pengzhuang Village for defense.

It doesn't matter if the enemy withdraws the Elf Legion near Yangshu, but they absolutely should not withdraw the defenders of Jiukongqiao Village, because the Jiukong Bridge is the only channel connecting the two sides of the White Horse River, and giving up the Jiukong Bridge means The enemy wanted to let them go.

It was precisely because the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces withdrew the army stationed in Jiukongqiao Village that Lang Wubing was not sure whether this was the enemy's plan to encircle the point and provide reinforcements.

Looking at the solemn and doubtful Lang Wubing, Xiong Xiaoguang patted him on the shoulder and said: "General, I know what you are thinking, it is nothing more than that the enemy should not abandon Jiukongqiao Village.

In fact, the enemy has only one purpose for doing this, and that is to deliberately lure us away from Yangshu and Colorful Bridge.

If you think about it carefully, why did we fight the enemy all the way to Yangshu after entering Luqiao Town, and we occupied Yangshu and a small half of the Colorful Bridge?

Isn't it because the enemy's water transportation capabilities are very limited and they are not fully prepared?

Although I don’t know how the enemy obtained Luqiao Town from that dead bald donkey Chu Tianba, I know that the enemy must not have been well prepared at that time, otherwise the enemy that faced you in Luqiao Town at that time would not have been a human army. , but their most elite heavy infantry regiment.

I guess this was probably deliberately arranged by Chu Tianba, that stupid bald donkey. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that we had just received the outskirts of Luqiao Town and the enemy had just arrived there?

General, do you still remember that every city we take over has a large amount of food stored in it?

At that time, I thought that Chu Tianba was facing us. He was just afraid of the strength of the Northern Expedition Alliance, so he chose not to help each other.

Now it seems that we and the enemy have all been fooled by that dead bald donkey.

At that time, that dead bald donkey must have chosen both sides. On the surface, he gave us all the land along the Grand Canal, but in fact, he secretly sold Luqiao Town to the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Chu Tianba knew that it would take a long time for us to transport grain and grass from the rear. He was worried that if we were slow to receive the city, the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces would take the opportunity to transport a large number of troops to the areas behind Luqiao Town.

At that time, we will be caught off guard when faced with a large number of main forces of the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces that suddenly rush out from Luqiao Town.

That's why he left us a considerable amount of food in each city, so that we could receive it as soon as possible in Luqiao Town, and then fight the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces that appeared in Luqiao Town.

From the time when we were unstoppable and fought all the way to the bottom of Yangshu, now the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces have begun to take advantage and surround us.

All this is enough to show that we caught the Northern Expeditionary Alliance unprepared at that time, because their elite legions had not arrived yet, and they could only transport some human legions with low combat effectiveness across the river.

You also saw the battle on the Colorful Bridge during the day. If the enemy transports the Minotaur Heavy Infantry Corps here intact, we will have no chance of occupying Yangshu and Colorful Bridge.

All this can only show that Chu Tianba’s calculation was very good. He successfully caused us to fight the Northern Expedition Alliance in a lose-lose situation.

And now, although we have occupied Yangshu and a small part of the Colorful Bridge, the enemy's elite legions have all arrived here.

Although the enemy has taken the absolute initiative after successfully landing, in fact they are also facing a big problem, that is, logistical supplies.

Throughout the whole day today, the enemy's transport fleet transported almost all troops. Only relying on the dry food carried by the soldiers, the enemy would not be able to hold on for a few days before running out of food.

The current situation is that our reinforcements are on the way, and the enemy's troops are all on the other side of the lake. With the Rainbow Bridge impassable, the enemy must grasp whether the transport fleet is transporting troops or logistics supplies.

If the enemy continues to transport troops, once our reinforcements arrive and form a stalemate with them, they will soon be in crisis of running out of food.

If the enemy switches to transporting logistical supplies in the future, as our reinforcements continue to arrive, their advantage in strength will be quickly wiped out.

Once His Majesty's Imperial Guards supporting us arrive here, it will be difficult for the enemy to defend Jiukongqiao Village without having a superior force.

Therefore, they urgently need to open up the important transportation channel of Colorful Bridge.

With the Guards Corps under my command guarding the Colorful Bridge, it is very unrealistic for the enemy to rely on a strong attack to open the Colorful Bridge. This can be seen from the fierce battle on the Tiantian Bridge.

The strong attack failed, so the enemy thought of luring us away actively, so they transferred the garrison stationed in Jiukongqiao Village.

Although this is a plan by the enemy to divert the tiger away from the mountain, it is also a good opportunity for us to break out of the encirclement.

What I'm worried about now is that as soon as we leave, the enemy's army that retreated to Shengjiawu will immediately counterattack Jiukongqiao Village.

Judging from the fact that they could easily defeat Lang Wuque's army during the day, once they launch an attack, it may be difficult for Lang Wuque's remaining 10,000 people to stop them from reoccupying Jiukongqiao Village.

Therefore, if we want to evacuate safely, we must remain calm, occupy Jiukongqiao Village first, and have the strength to defend Jiukongqiao Village, otherwise we will definitely be beaten by the enemy on both sides. "

After listening to Xiong Xiaoguang's analysis, Lang Wubing immediately understood. He gave Xiong Xiaoguang a thumbs up and said: "Little Prince, your analysis is more accurate. In this case, I will leave it to you for tonight's retreat." ”
