Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

In the three-month defensive battle, facing the fierce attack by Jordanian players, the Principality of Lamu with only 60,000 troops held on extremely hard.

Every time they lost a fortress, they would lose at least several thousand soldiers.

Although the Kingdom of Jordan will pay several times the price of the Principality of Lamu, the number of troops in the Kingdom of Jordan is dozens of times that of the Principality of Lamu, so they can completely afford it.

The most elite army in the Ram Principality is Li Tianqi's Tianfeng Knights.

The players of the Sky Wind Knights are all good players on horseback, so asking them to dismount to defend is simply a waste of natural resources.

However, the situation is stronger than the people. Facing the massive invading Jordanian army, Li Tianqi has no other choice. He can only let the players of the Tianfeng Knights act as infantry defenders.

With their unafraid mental state and excellent archery skills, the players of the Skywind Knights successfully inspired the fighting spirit of other armies of the Principality of Ram, and launched a series of desperate battles with the unreasonable Jordanian army.

Although the final result was that the Principality of Ram continued to lose land and the number of surviving troops was getting smaller and smaller, they succeeded in buying enough time for the expedition fleet of the Condor Empire.

When the expedition fleet of the Condor Empire appeared in the Gulf of Aqaba, there were only 24,000 defenders left in the Principality of Ram, of which only more than 10,000 players from the Skywind Knights were left.

Now all 24,000 people have retreated to the last fortress at the foot of the west side of Lamu Mountain.

If this fortress is lost again, then the entire Aqaba area will no longer have natural dangers to defend.

The expedition fleet of the Condor Empire came at just the right time, because the Jordanian army had already begun a round-the-clock ferocious attack on the Aqaba Fortress.

...

After learning that a large number of dark warships appeared in the Gulf of Aqaba, Li Tianqi, whose eyes were red from the exertion, immediately rode to the port on horseback.

As a huge flagship sailed into the port first, a tall lion-human man in silver armor walked off the deck first.

After scanning the people on the shore, the lion man walked directly towards Li Tianqi.

Walking in front of Li Tianqi, the lion man showed his sharp white teeth and said with a smile: "You must be General Li Tianqi!"

"I am Li Tianqi,

May I ask your Excellency? "

Facing the tall lion man, Li Tianqi nodded in confusion.

"Hello, General Li Tianqi, my name is Kuka Zack Lion, and I am the commander of the Lion Legion of the Condor Empire.

This time I came to support your Lamu Principality under the order of my Majesty. It seems that we are not too late. "

With that said, Kuka stretched out his big hand like a cattail leaf fan.

After listening to KUKA's introduction, Li Tianqi became even more confused. He reflexively stretched out his hand to shake KUKA's hand, and then directly invited KUKA to a rest area on the port.

After arriving and taking a seat in the rest area, Li Tianqi immediately asked: "General Kuka, how many troops have you brought this time?"

"I brought the first legion of the Lion Army, a hundred thousand people."

Kuka replied with a smile.

"One hundred thousand lion warriors?" Li Tianqi asked.

"Yes, there are a hundred thousand lion warriors. In addition, there are some other auxiliary troops. Counting the naval soldiers on the warships, the total number exceeds 120,000."

Kuka introduced the strength of the expedition fleet to Li Tianqi in detail.

Li Tianqi's breathing suddenly became rapid when he heard that there were 100,000 lion warriors.

After staying in the Arabian Peninsula for so many years, Li Tianqi is very aware of the fighting power of the lion warriors in the tropics.

Compared with other orc warriors, lion warriors are undoubtedly more suitable for the hot weather in tropical areas, so in Africa and the Saudi Arabian Peninsula, the lion warriors are more effective in combat.

Originally, Li Tianqi thought that Ningyuan would send a mixed army of humans and elves to support him, because most of the armies of the Condor Empire lived in cold areas, and only humans and elves could adapt to the heat of the Arabian Peninsula faster. environment.

Li Tianqi never dreamed that Ning Yuan would send a lion-human army that could only be found in Africa, and the number actually reached 100,000.

Listening to Kuka's tone, it seems that these 100,000 people are not all of the entire Lion Army, because he just mentioned the first army of the Lion Army.

What surprised Li Tianqi even more was that the Condor Empire actually had a large-scale lion-human army. You must know that in previous wars, there had never been a lion-human army in the army of the Condor Empire.

This guy Ning Yuan actually managed to cultivate a terrifying lion-human army without anyone noticing, and he was able to tolerate it without using it for so many years. This courage is truly terrifying.

No wonder Ning Yuan was able to achieve today's results. It turns out that he relied not only on good luck, but also on unexpected courage and long-term strategic goals.

After learning that Cook had brought 100,000 lion warriors, Li Tianqi knew why Ning Yuan had been hiding the lion warriors from using them.

This old boy must have been preparing to use the lion-man army in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula from the beginning.

In other words, while others were still desperately fighting for the territory in front of them, Ningyuan had already begun to settle in Africa.

If they had known about Ningyuan's plan before the Eagle Empire set foot in the Central Plains, people would definitely laugh at Ningyuan for being so ambitious, because at that time Ningyuan was not even able to unify China.

But now, Li Tianqi can only admire Ning Yuan's foresight and foresight, because the Lion Clan army is really suitable for fighting here.

Thinking of this, Li Tianqi couldn't help but feel glad that he finally chose to join Ningyuan, otherwise he would sooner or later come up empty-handed.

Well now, he has joined the Condor Empire on behalf of the entire Principality of Ram. After this crisis is over, he will soon be able to continue leading the Skywind Knights to gallop in the wilderness.

After personally pouring a cup of herbal tea for Kuka, Li Tianqi said in a deep voice: "General Kuka, His Majesty Ningyuan once mentioned to me that we need to solve the army's food and grass problem on the spot.

To be honest, now our Principality of Lamu has lost most of its territory, and only the Aqaba region is still in our hands.

The food reserves in Aqaba are limited now, and you and the Lions under your command are relatively good at eating, so what is before us now is not only the problem of defending Aqaba, but also the problem of food and fodder for the army. .

His Majesty Ningyuan means to obtain supplies of food and grass materials from the Jordanian army.

Now the camps of the Jordanian army are spread across the entire Lamu Mountain, and a large amount of food and supplies are also stored there. Do you think we should take advantage of the fact that the Jordanian side has not yet learned your details and catch them off guard?

In this way, we can not only defeat the unsuspecting Jordanian army, but also seize the massive amounts of food and supplies they brought over. Wouldn't it be nice to kill two birds with one stone? "

Nothing is perfect in the world. While Li Tianqi was surprised by the arrival of the Lions, he also began to worry about the Lions' food and supplies.

Lion warriors are not only powerful personally, but their food intake is also directly proportional to their strength.

The current food reserves of the Principality of Lamu cannot meet the daily needs of one hundred thousand lion-human warriors. In less than half a month, the granary of the Principality of Lamu will be bottomed out.

Now the only way to get enough food is to defeat the Jordanian army and then take their food and supplies as your own.

Li Tianqi knew that this matter could not be delayed, so before the soldiers of the Lion Legion landed, he began to encourage Kuka to immediately launch a counterattack against the Kingdom of Jordan.

After listening to Li Tianqi's proposal, Kuka said with a bright smile: "General Li Tianqi, do you know why I didn't order the troops to disembark?

In fact, I have exactly the same opinion as you.

There were so many warships suddenly appearing on the Gulf of Aqaba. Unless the enemy was blind, it was impossible for them not to see what was going on in the Gulf.

However, since this area is also covered by a restricted airspace, the enemy can only see the fleet on the bay from a distance, and they cannot know the specific situation on the ship.

I did not immediately order the troops to land just so that the enemy could not find out our true and false intentions.

After sailing into the Gulf of Aqaba, I have sent Seraph scouts to explore the situation on your side.

Through the reconnaissance of Seraph scouts, I now have a rough idea of ​​the enemy's troop deployment.

My opinion is consistent with yours, which is to land after dark and then use the cover of night to launch a major counterattack against the enemy.

The enemy's troops deployed around Lamu Mountain are mainly human troops, with the elves and orcs accounting for less than 30%.

In this case, launching a night attack is more beneficial to us, because the soldiers of the Lion Legion are also very good at night fighting.

General Li Tianqi, before I came here, I heard His Majesty mention that you have a strong cavalry regiment here. I wonder how many people and horses are left in this cavalry regiment? "

"There are more than 10,000 people left, and the war horses are still there, more than 30,000."

Li Tianqi replied.

"Our lion warriors can't ride your horses, but ten thousand elite cavalry are enough.

General Li Tianqi, as soon as it gets dark tonight, I will immediately order the Lions to land.

After the Lion Legion arrives at your Aqaba Fortress, we will immediately break out of the fortress to fight back.

This time we are all infantry, so I will lead the Lions to take full responsibility for the frontal battlefield.

Your task tonight is to lead the cavalry regiment to take advantage of the chaos to hunt down the defeated enemies without giving them a chance to regroup.

Our biggest advantage tonight is that the enemy does not know our true and false strength, so we must seize this opportunity to maximize the results.

Because we are far away from the mainland, we will not be able to get any help from the mainland in a short period of time, so we must use local materials to get through this difficult period.

Before I set off, His Majesty had a private conversation with me. He told me that as long as our Lions appear on the Arabian Peninsula, no matter whether we reveal our identities or not, we will be jointly besieged by several powerful forces nearby. .

Although our Lion Legion is confident of resisting the enemy's attack, the national strength of your Principality of Ram is too weak and cannot afford to support our Lion Legion.

If we want to hold on until the arrival of reinforcements or local food and material support, we must obtain enough food before the enemy sieges us.

So tonight's counterattack is crucial for us, because this is probably our best chance to seize food and supplies.

General Li Tianqi, tonight we will not only defeat the Jordanian army that has been besieging you for three months and rob them of their food and supplies, but we will also take advantage of the situation to enter their hinterland and continue to rob all kinds of food and supplies.

We have just arrived here and are unfamiliar with everything here.

You have lived here for a long time, and you should be familiar with everything here.

So after defeating the enemy, I hope you can continue to lead the cavalry regiment into places where a large amount of food and supplies are stored, and help us seize as much food and supplies as possible.

I know that you have been fighting for so long and are already very tired, but when we set foot on the land here, there is not much time left for us.

Therefore, I hope that you and the cavalry under your command can grit your teeth and persist for a few more days to assist us in completing the important task of on-site supply. "

After saying that, Kuka looked at Li Tianqi sincerely.

Li Tianqi's expression suddenly became solemn when he heard that Kuka was not satisfied with defeating the Jordanian army around Lamu Mountain, but wanted to rush into the hinterland of the Kingdom of Jordan to rob grain and supplies.

Li Tianqi is not afraid of hard work. What he is most worried about is that he cannot control the speed, because there are two powerful neighbors next to the Lamu Principality who have been paying attention to the situation here.

Once they go too deep to rob food and supplies, or delay for too long in transporting food and supplies, the two powerful neighbors next to them are likely to take this opportunity to sneak attack Aqaba.

These two powerful neighbors both have powerful cavalry armies. If they send cavalry to cut off the Lions' retreat, and then cooperate with the army of the Kingdom of Jordan to besiege the Lions, the Lions will be in danger.

Once the Lions have any shortcomings, it will not be a question of the demise of the Principality of Lamu, but a question of whether Ningyuan will be held accountable.

The Kuka in front of me seems to be far-sighted, but he is new here after all!

At present, Kuka's understanding of the situation here is limited to Ning Yuan's information. It is very risky to take large-scale military actions based on this information that is more than three months out of date.

The Lion Tribe had been hidden by Ning Yuanxue for so many years. They must have been suppressed, so they were eager to make some achievements for Ning Yuan to see.

But what Li Tianqi wants is just to keep the Principality of Lamu, and then quietly wait for Ning Yuan to lead his army here. He does not need additional military exploits.

Therefore, he must find a way to persuade the eager lion in front of him to give up all adventurous plans.
