Online Games Barbarism and Civilization
Chapter 1236, Winter Song (25)
February 4, 34 years of brutality.
As the warm sunshine filled the earth, the last bit of coldness left by the night was driven away, and people left their warm beds to start a new day.
Northern Expeditionary Army Ice House Camp.
After two days of peaceful repairs, many soldiers in the camp were in a lazy state.
Although the chefs in the cooking camp have baked fragrant flatbreads and cooked rich meat-flavored broth, the soldiers who had just gotten up still couldn't cheer up immediately.
It wasn't until the flatbread was in their mouths and the broth was finished that the soldiers felt like they were alive again.
Woo~~~~~~!
Just when the soldiers had just finished breakfast and were lazily leaning on the dry thatch to bask in the sun, a rapid horn sound suddenly came from the distant sentry tower.
After hearing the sound of the horn, which meant that a large number of enemies were approaching, the soldiers immediately jumped up from the thatch and began to gather in an emergency formation.
About half an hour later, the Condor Army appeared simultaneously in the southeast and northwest directions of the igloo camp.
Appearing in the west were the wolf cavalry as far as the eye could see. Countless wargs were breathing and howling in the direction of the igloo camp.
Appearing on the north and south sides were wild boar heavy infantry warriors all over the mountains and plains.
All quilboar warriors are wearing heavy armor and holding shields.
Behind them were tall trebuchets and groups of Baikal seals.
Appearing in the east were all Tauren heavy infantry warriors.
After putting on real heavy infantry equipment, the totem warriors immediately transformed into real tauren heavy infantry.
Behind the tauren heavy infantry are also tall trebuchets and groups of Baikal seals.
Except for the wolf cavalry regiment to the west, which stopped on a high ground three kilometers away from the igloo camp, the armies from the other three directions were approaching the igloo camp at a fixed speed.
...
As soon as he heard the sound of the horn, Lu Chenguang and other generals in the army hurried to a high platform in the camp.
When they used the monocular telescope to observe the enemy situation in the four directions of southeast, northwest, everyone's expressions were very ugly. Even Lu Chenguang, who had always been very confident before, also had a solemn expression on his face.
This time the Shenying Army dispatched much more troops than they imagined, and it seemed that Ning Yuan was serious about it this time and had no intention of testing at all.
After observing the enemy situation in the distance, Lu Chenguang immediately spoke: "Everyone, this time the Condor Army should adopt a tactic of besieging on three sides and blocking on one side.
Although the wolf cavalry to the west of the camp do not pose much threat to us for the time being, if we are defeated, they will immediately become our reminder, because our only retreat is to the west, so we can only win this battle. defeat.
Since the enemies in the east, south, and north directions all carry trebuchets with ultra-long range, we must take the initiative to push them out, otherwise we will only hit the opponent in vain.
I just observed carefully that the Condor Army on the north and south sides should be the two siege armies that Ningyuan transferred to attack Kaifeng and Zhoukou, and the ones on the east are the main force of the Condor Army that was previously stationed here at the Igloo Camp.
In other words, the strength of the Condor Army in the north and south is relatively weak, and the real main force of the Condor Army is in the east.
Soon I will personally lead the main force to the east to fight against the main force of the Condor Army.
Li Chaoyang and Li Feng were responsible for leading their troops to block the attack on the north and south sides.
Li Chaoyang obeyed the order. "
"The end will be here."
"Immediately lead 10,000 Divine Arm Archers, 10,000 Tauren Heavy Infantry, 10,000 Modao Army and 10,000 Black Armor Cavalry to form an array on the north side of the camp. When the Divine Eagle Army approaches, you will follow the tactics I formulated before. To defend against the enemy.”
"The general will obey the order."
"Li Feng obeys the order."
"The end will be here."
"Immediately lead the same number of troops as Li Chaoyang to the south to defend the enemy."
"The general will obey the order."
"President Lu, I will leave you a sufficient number of fishing nets and arrows for air defense, and the safety of the camp will be left to you."
After giving orders to his two capable men, Li Yufeng turned his attention to Lu Chenguang.
"President Li, please rest assured. We are here in the camp. Unless I die, we will never let the enemy invade the camp."
Lu Chenguang gave Li Yufeng a brother-you-know look.
After receiving the assurance from Lu Chenguang, Li Yufeng immediately shouted loudly: "Today's battle is related to our life and death. We must show our determination to fight to the death with the enemy to the end and set off."
As Li Yufeng took the lead and walked off the platform, the Northern Expeditionary Allied Forces in the camp also took action quickly.
After a while, an army emerged from three directions: east, south, and north.
After forming a formation outside the camp, the three armies immediately faced the slowly approaching Condor Army.
As the distance between the two armies continued to shorten, the Tauren heavy infantry who were leading the charge soon stopped first.
"Commander Qi, the enemy's tauren heavy infantry are not holding shields. They look like huge door panels."
After Li Yufeng led his army to greet them, the owl scouts took off one after another and began to observe the enemy's situation through telescopes. Then they saw the huge door panel carried on the shoulders of the Minotaur heavy infantry of the Condor Army.
Originally, the Minotaur heavy infantry was equipped with heavy armor and shields. However, when Ning Yuan discovered that the Northern Expeditionary Army carried a large number of ballistae, he immediately ordered people to collect a large number of door panels and wood from nearby, and then rushed to make a batch of them. Extra thick door panel shield.
Ordinary heavy infantry shields may not be able to withstand the attack of the powerful ballistae, but at this time, the huge wooden board about thirty centimeters thick in the hands of the tauren heavy infantry has a great chance of withstanding the powerful attack of the ballistae. .
Ning Yuan's idea is very simple. Didn't you, Li Yufeng, prepare a ballista to deal with the orc heavy infantry?
Then I will directly form a wooden wall in front of the position, use the wooden wall to resist the shooting of the ballistae, and then use the new trebuchet to bombard your position.
The power of the ballista is the greatest when it is fired horizontally. If the ballista is artificially used for ejection, its range and power will be greatly affected.
As long as the ballistae of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance cannot shoot through the huge door panel blocking the front, then the trebuchets of the Condor Army can continue to bomb the opponent unscrupulously.
Ning Yuan's tactic was to prevent the Northern Expedition Allied Forces from clinging to the igloo camp, forcing the Northern Expedition Allied Forces to take the initiative to greet them, and then launch the charge first.
If the Northern Expeditionary Alliance fails to attack, then they will use the door panel formation to continuously advance forward, and use the range advantage of the trebuchet to attack for free.
When Li Yufeng learned from the owl scout that the enemy's tauren heavy infantry in the front row were holding huge door panels, he immediately understood the tactics Ning Yuan wanted to implement.
After thinking for a short time, Li Yufeng immediately shouted an order: "Give me the military order. The army will maintain its formation and continue to advance. All the ballistae will come forward and launch immediately after entering the range."
War is like this. When you fall into passivity, you must take the initiative to find a way to break the situation, otherwise you will always be led by the enemy.
Li Yufeng didn't want to be led by the Eagle Army, so he didn't hesitate even if his side had to be the first to suffer casualties.
Because people will die in war. If everyone is as stingy as Ning Yuan, they will miss a lot of opportunities.
"emission!"
As the Northern Expeditionary Alliance continued to advance, the Minotaur heavy infantry and divine arm shooters in the front soon entered the attack range of the Condor Army's new trebuchets.
After seeing this situation, the general responsible for commanding the trebuchets immediately ordered the trebuchets to start attacking.
After the shouting, countless ice balls appeared in the sky.
The ice ball flew towards the Northern Expeditionary Alliance camp with a sound of breaking through the air.
As the ice ball landed, empty areas immediately appeared in the originally dense formation of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance.
Along with screams, many unlucky Northern Expedition soldiers died tragically under the ice ball.
However, the Condor Army's ice bombing did not scare the advancing Northern Expedition soldiers.
Even though the companions around them had just died tragically under the ice ball falling from the sky, the well-trained soldiers did not hesitate at all, and they still moved forward firmly.
It would be absolutely false to say that they are not afraid, but military orders are so strong that they are more afraid of being severely punished by military law than being killed by a sudden falling ice ball.
Therefore, even if they knew that they might die unexpectedly at any time, they had no intention of retreating. At this time, moving forward was the only thought in their minds. This was also the biggest difference between the elite and the rabble.
"The trebuchet stopped attacking and immediately moved back five hundred meters."
After seeing the well-trained troops under Li Yufeng, Ning Yuan immediately signaled the trebuchet to stop attacking and retreat.
In fact, in such large-scale field battles, the casualties that the trebuchet can cause are very limited. Its greatest role is to shock the enemy and make the enemy fearful.
Now that the vanguard army under Li Yufeng was not frightened by the trebuchet attack, the trebuchet must be kept away from the battlefield, because when the distance between the two armies is too close, the trebuchet will immediately lose its effect.
"God Arm Ballista Shooting!"
When the trebuchets of the Condor Army moved backward, the Divine Arm Ballista of the Northern Expeditionary Alliance, which had already entered the range, immediately began to show off its power.
As the huge roaring crossbow arrows flew towards the Condor Army's position, Ning Yuan's heart rose to his throat.
Under Ning Yuan's gaze, hundreds of giant crossbow arrows directly hit the door panel array arranged by the Minotaur heavy infantry.
After a huge crash, Ning Yuan slowly let out a breath.
Although the Divine Arm Crossbow was very powerful, the crossbow arrows it fired did not penetrate the thirty centimeter thick door panel.
Of course, the crossbows fired by the Northern Expeditionary Alliance did not achieve any results.
After the giant crossbow hit the door panel, many of the tauren heavy infantry holding the door panel suffered broken arms, and then they were replaced by other companions.
"Instruct the tauren heavy infantry in the front to slowly retreat back, and let the trebuchets in the rear prepare to launch again."
After seeing that the Divine Arm Ballista only injured some Minotaur heavy infantry, Ning Yuan decided to do a few more long-range bombings before the enemy launched a charge.
"Commander, the enemy's tauren heavy infantry phalanx seems to be retreating backwards."
After seeing the actions of the Condor Army, the owl scouts in the air immediately reported to Li Yufeng.
At this time, Li Yufeng's disadvantage of being unable to take off and actively observe the enemy's situation was completely highlighted.
Riding the Silver Pegasus, Ning Yuan could observe all the enemy's movements in the air for the first time, and then make corresponding decisions immediately.
But Li Yufeng couldn't. He was in the middle army and could only observe the enemy's situation through the owl scouts above his head. He could only analyze and make decisions after the owl scouts notified him.
Therefore, in terms of the reaction of the army, his side is always a beat slower than the opposite Condor Army.
But don't underestimate this slow beat, because this beat quickly gave the Condor Army's trebuchet, which retreated 500 meters in advance, another chance to attack.
When Li Yufeng saw countless ice balls falling from the sky again, he immediately shouted an order: "Send my military order to leave the Divine Arm Ballista where it is, and the entire army will speed up and advance immediately."
Li Yufeng knew that if they continued to test each other like this, his side would always be kited by the Condor military trebuchet, so he gave up decisively after seeing that the Divine Arm ballista could not shoot through the door panel.
Next, he must quickly bring his own vanguard army and the vanguard army of the Condor Army into close combat.
Only when the two armies were completely killed together could he abolish the Condor Army's trebuchet attack and then take advantage of his own Divine Arm Bow.
Before the centaur legion of the Condor Army showed up, he would not dare to easily send out his cavalry regiment.
So all he can rely on now is the military formation composed of tauren heavy infantry and divine arm shooters.
Seeing Li Yufeng's army suddenly start to speed up, being lured out bit by bit by his own side, and gradually starting to move away from the igloo camp, Ning Yuan had a bright smile on his face.
"Come here, send a signal to Zhao Gang immediately and ask him to start executing the burning plan immediately.
Immediately send someone to notify Niu Tianci, asking him to carry out totem warfare according to the situation on the battlefield, and to hold back the enemy's Minotaur heavy infantry legion so that they cannot easily leave the battlefield.
Go and notify Ma Qianzhang and ask him to immediately lead the centaur army to protect the two wings of the totem army.
If the enemy wants to retreat, let them rush forward immediately and entangle the enemy's two cavalry regiments.
Immediately send four teams of Seraph warriors to notify the four armies executing the bridge-capture plan and all naval fleets on the Yangtze River. The bridge-capture operation will begin immediately. "
Looking at Li Yufeng's army, which was about to engage in close combat with his own Minotaur Heavy Infantry Corps, Ning Yuan issued a series of orders with a murderous look on his face.
If all goes well, today's battle will not only give him control north of the Yangtze River, but will also lay a solid foundation for him to attack the south of the Yangtze River.
After so many years of warlord fighting, the Chinese region will be unified in his hands at the right time.
