Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

The city of Lhasa is located on a high ground next to the valley plain in the middle reaches of the Lhasa River. The entire city overlooks the surrounding valley plain, and the terrain is extremely steep.

Not to mention that the Snow Mountain Legion did not carry any engineering equipment. Even if they brought over the most advanced siege equipment from the Condor Empire, it would be difficult to break through the city wall of Lhasa from the ground.

Because the outside of the Lhasa city wall is either a cliff dozens of meters high or a huge slope, it is difficult for the advanced siege equipment of the Condor Army to reach under the city wall.

After capturing the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Tiger Zhairi chose Lhasa, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, as his capital and carried out key operations.

Like his father, Hu Zhairi also brought the families of the generals of the Tiger Legion to Lhasa City as hostages, and arranged for his confidant Hu Ertai to garrison Lhasa City.

The city of Lhasa was already easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now that there are five thousand elite Tiger Army soldiers stationed in the city, it is even more difficult to break it.

When Bai Ze formulated the entire battle plan, he had already taken into account the steep terrain of Lhasa City.

Originally, with the strength of the Condor Army, Bai Ze could have sent the Silver Pegasus Army to bypass Qamdo City and directly launch a surprise attack on Lhasa City.

As long as he is willing to sacrifice the Silver Pegasus Legion, even if there are five thousand Tiger Army soldiers in the city, it will be difficult to resist the Silver Pegasus Legion's unreasonable attack.

However, by using this forced approach, not only will the Silver Pegasus Legion lose its troops, but once the enemy launches a large-scale counterattack, the city of Lhasa is likely to change hands again.

So after carefully weighing the gains and losses, Bai Ze formulated a dark night plan.

It can be seen from the name of the Dark Night Project that its protagonist is neither the Silver Pegasus Legion nor any ground legion, but the vampire legion that has not been fighting for a long time.

After entering the Great Earth Era, the vampire legions of the Condor Empire were rarely dispatched.

The reason why Ning Yuan did not allow the vampire army to participate in the battle was not because they were incompetent, but because their limitations were too great.

Vampires are afraid of sunlight and can only be active at night. This racial characteristic destined them to be unable to march long distances in the wild.

Although Ningyuan can ask other legions to set up some tents for them along the way for them to rest during the day, and use this relay method to help them on their way, this method has great disadvantages.

First of all, the Vampire Legion cannot carry any logistical supplies. Their daily needs require others to help them prepare them. This will greatly increase the logistical pressure on the Condor Army.

Secondly, vampires are very vulnerable during the day. Once the enemy attacks their resting camp, they may encounter the crisis of annihilation.

Ning Yuan has a deep understanding of this aspect, because he did such a thing on the Lost Continent back then, and he still can't forget the gorgeous daytime fireworks.

It is precisely because of these two fatal shortcomings that even if the vampire army is the king of the night, Ning Yuan rarely sends them out to fight.

Especially after the formation of the Silver Pegasus Knights, the Vampire Legion was completely on the bench.

Bai Ze's dark night plan with the vampire army as the main character this time was mainly based on the characteristics of vampires who are not afraid of cold and heat.

The temperature difference between day and night on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is very huge. The sun may be scorching during the day, but the wind will be biting at night.

For other races, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at night is very tiring, but for vampires who are immune to cold and heat, there is no difference between minus 20 degrees and minus 50 degrees, so let them control the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. At night, it is simply getting twice the result with half the effort.

Taking into account the difficulty of marching by the Vampire Legion, the first step of the Dark Night Plan is to quickly occupy all the cities and villages on the Tea Horse Road to provide some shelter for the Vampire Legion soldiers to hide from the daylight.

While the Silver Pegasus Knights and the Snow Mountain Legion were attacking cities along the Tea Horse Road, every night, Xue Guangyi would lead his vampire legions to garrison the cities captured by the Condor Army.

In this way, the Vampire Legion has been closely following the Snow Mountain Legion. When the Snow Mountain Legion arrived in Lhasa, they had already stationed in Gonggar City, which is closer to Lhasa.

After the failure of deceiving the city, why did Hu Dashan dare to sleep soundly in a nearby mountain col? It was because he knew that there was nothing going on with his Snow Mountain Legion at night, and his mission was during the day.

Huertai always thought that the Snow Mountain Legion and the elusive Silver Pegasus Legion of the Condor Army were his archenemies, but little did he know that the real King of the Night had quietly come to them.

Just as night fell, Xue Guangyi led the vampire army and set off from Gongga City.

When they flew near Lhasa City, they happened to catch up with the time when the defenders on the city were at their most relaxed, so Xueyang Guangyi led the army towards Lhasa City without hesitation.

Although they haven't participated in a battle for a long time, the fighting techniques of the vampire warriors are not unfamiliar at all.

They first habitually extinguished all the open fires in the city, plunging the city into complete darkness, and then immediately began the extremely oppressive night invasion.

Although the Khajiit warriors also have good night vision, compared to the vampires, their night vision is not that good.

In addition, vampires have the perverted racial talent of night killers. At night, they are more sensitive than tiger warriors.

Therefore, even if the personal strength of the tiger warriors was stronger than them, under the pervasive surprise attack of the vampire warriors, those tiger warriors who took the initiative to rush out eventually fell in a pool of blood.

After hearing the golden warning coming from the city wall, Huertai rushed out of the room immediately, and within a few minutes, he fled back in embarrassment with wounds all over his body.

Facing those vampire warriors who were everywhere in the darkness, even someone as powerful as Hu Ertai was no match. If the guards around him hadn't desperately covered his retreat, I'm afraid he would have been completely left outside.

After escaping back to the room, Huertai didn't bother to bandage the numerous wounds on his body. He quietly came to the window, and then suddenly shouted with all his strength:

"The tigers in the city obeyed the order and no one was allowed to leave the house. Everyone relied on the house to defend themselves. After daybreak, the vampires would automatically retreat.

The person who heard the order immediately passed it on to me. "

Although Huertai had never fought against the vampire army before, he still knew the weaknesses of the vampires clearly.

In addition to being afraid of the sun, vampires' biggest advantage is that they can silently shuttle in the dark and launch sneak attacks on enemies from different directions.

The best way to prevent being attacked by vampires at night is to enter a place with limited space such as a house to defend.

Vampire warriors will not easily enter any confined space, because the confined space will restrict their ability to fly.

So after finding no way to deal with the vampire army, Huertai could only choose to hide in the house until dawn, waiting for the other party to retreat on their own initiative.

As soon as Huertai's shouting stopped, the same shouting immediately rang out not far away. After a while, the same shouting began to echo throughout the entire city of Lhasa.
