One day later, the forward regiment of the "Haimu Alliance" arrived at Witherspoon on time.
This vanguard army is composed entirely of elite knights from the Mulan Empire, numbering approximately one hundred thousand, each with a fat chestnut camel.
In the Tieletai military system of the Mulan Empire, which dominated the entire desert, there was originally no infantry formation except for slave warriors. This desert empire had too many Bactrian camels and dromedary camels, even ordinary ones.
Civilians never lacked means of transportation; the Mulan people relied on their camel cavalry to come and go like the wind, and destroyed one desert nation after another and civilized countries that were unwilling to surrender.
For Beamon, the arrival of this forward army not only indicates that the war has begun, but also places a good fighter plane in front of Witherspoon. It depends on whether Beamon has the courage to eat it in one bite——
--------The camels in the desert are the same as the Aegean war horses. They are also divided into varieties, grades and prices. Camels with noble blood and rigorous training have famous camels with soft humps and are as fast as the wind.
With his running speed, he will not be frightened even if he is on the battlefield, and he can still remain quiet even if he is injured.
The maroon camels equipped by the forward corps are the famous camel species of the Mulan Empire, "Lancang". The status of this valuable mount in the camel world is equivalent to the "Qinghai Cong" in the war horse world. Every Lancang
Camels weigh more than half a ton, are more than two meters tall, have thick manes and are extremely strong.
Since the Muran people marched into the Behemoth Kingdom by sea this time, they could not carry too many mounts. Therefore, most of the Mulan soldiers who did not have mounts became infantry after they landed ashore. They were also unable to travel on land.
Together with the Hai tribe soldiers using their mounts, they were rushing to Witherspoon on foot. -------------The infantry's marching speed was as fast as that of Lancang camels, and it was no different than that of turtles and turtles.
It's a rabbit race, so invisibly, the forward army with excellent mobility has become disconnected from the main force.
This medium-sized fighter plane was discovered by Beamon's staff who were responsible for monitoring the "Eye of Saruman" in the combat laboratory in Chesang Continent; it would take at least seven days for the main force of the "Haimu Alliance" to arrive.
By arriving at Witherspoon, with the current military strength of the Northeast Province, it would be enough time to eat up this 100,000-strong vanguard army.
The huge role of large-scale magic equipment in war has been well verified as soon as the war started. If it is handled according to conventional warfare and a large number of scouts are sent to slowly conduct reconnaissance, even if the same fighter planes are captured, it will take a lot of time.
It was enough for the main force of the "Haimu Alliance" to hit the door.
However, if you want to eat this camel cavalry numbering up to 100,000, it is not something you can do with a crooked mouth.
General Mulan, who was responsible for leading this forward corps, was not an idiot. He was not so arrogant as to dare to attack a fortified city with cavalry alone. After arriving at Witherspoon, Mulan's cavalry first whizzed past the city while exploring the surrounding area.
Terrain, while looking for any hidden enemy troops.
After all their duties were completed, the vanguard army set up camp thirty miles away from Witherspoon.
Groups of rangers patrolled outside Witherspoon at different times, keeping a watchful eye.
There are currently two different opinions in Witherspoon on how to deal with these 100,000 Mulan cavalry.
The first opinion is naturally to go out of the city to fight and eat these 100,000 Mulan cavalry.
The reason is very simple. If we don't take the opportunity to eliminate this enemy now and wait for the opponent's main force to arrive, sooner or later these Mulan people will climb up the city wall to fight the Behemoth soldiers. If we kill them now, it will also reduce the pressure for the future. If we can
Getting their baggage is also very beneficial to Witherspoon. Just the fresh meat that can be obtained by slaughtering 100,000 camels, if it is stored in ice in the emerald snow-capped mountain caves, is enough to make the entire city happy.
Eat for a long time in the future.
The second opinion is to hold on and ignore the 100,000 Mulan cavalry.
The reasons are equally good. The Danube Wasteland is too flat, which is the most suitable for cavalry combat. At present, Witherspoon is mainly infantry. Only by relying on tall cities can we maximize the damage to the enemy. Once we go out of the city to fight, it is extremely possible.
The impact of the Mulan cavalry may have caused huge casualties! Taking another 10,000 steps back, even if the Beamon infantry has the strength to defeat the Mulan cavalry, the Mulan cavalry can completely retreat. With the mobility of the camel cavalry, it is better than
Even the Mongolian soldiers couldn't catch up.
His Majesty Bratt is a supporter of the first argument, while General Reyes adheres to the second opinion.
Liu Zhencheng did not participate in this irrelevant discussion. Anyway, he could do whatever he wanted. As for other people's arrangements and plans, that was other people's business.
"Your Majesty Brat, your appetite is really too big! There is no way we can eat these 100,000 camel cavalry in one bite!" Although General Reyes was more conservative, what he said was true: "We currently lack
Enough cavalry. Without cavalry, we cannot hold back the opponent. If we cannot hold back the opponent, it will be empty talk. Otherwise, we will be eaten by the opponent! Our strength is twice as high as the opponent, but most of us are infantry. The Muran people can
They are all cavalry! Even if we Witherspoon now have 200,000 Orphan warriors, we cannot destroy this enemy! I also want their baggage, but this is simply unrealistic!"
"General Fox, our Behemoths have had an extremely glorious record of fighting against cavalry on foot in history. Didn't you never learn this knowledge when you were in the military academy?" The red high priest said disdainfully: "Even I know that.
"Heart-piercing tactics", how come you forgot about it?"
The "heart-piercing tactic" mentioned by the old gecko is an old method used by Beamon infantry to deal with cavalry. This tactic is simple and effective. An elite force with excellent maneuverability is used to detour from the flanks and attack the enemy at the appropriate moment.
The army's command system launched a surprise attack and clung to the enemy's supreme commander, forcing the enemy's cavalry to return to rescue the commander.
As long as enough time can be bought, once the following Beamon infantry and enemy cavalry are strangled together to form a melee, the outcome will basically be decided.
"Of course I know the "heart-piercing tactic"! But in that case, the casualties will definitely be beyond my tolerance. When the main enemy force arrives, what will I use to defend the city?" General Reyes smiled bitterly: "Hey,
You must not mistake our warriors from the Northeast Province for those from the Southern Province or the Royal Capital. Pig warriors cannot defeat human warriors in a one-on-one situation!"
"You are slandering the strength of our Behemoth Warriors!" Old Gecko immediately became furious. Although he also knew that what Reyes said was the truth, he still could not accept this statement emotionally.
"Nixia, as clergy, it seems that we should not interfere too much in military affairs." Liu Zhenzhen couldn't stand it any longer. He sat aside and listened for a long time. Although he supported the views of the red high priest in his heart, Raye couldn't stand it anymore.
Si's words were not just a passive avoidance of war. As a guest soldier, he had to remind Lao Gecko to pay attention to his identity. After all, Witherspoon's overall defense could not be solved by relying on the Temple Knights or the Summer Palace Guards.
In this regard, the human military observation group has done better. These high-ranking military advisers from the human country never interfered in Witherspoon's military affairs decisions. Liu Zhencheng felt that the old gecko had the desire of laymen to lead experts.
Not a good sign.
The weight of each person's words is different. The Divine Comedy Shaman opened his mouth. Although the high priest in red still had an angry look on his face, he did not dare to yell at Old Liu like he was lecturing Reyes.
"It's not that I don't want to go to war, Your Majesty Bratt, Your Majesty Richard, even if you go to war, you have to have a plan, right? I will arrange small-scale harassment and sneak attacks even if you don't tell me! But a big siege and annihilation battle,
Even if we have enough time to implement it, we must think twice before we act!" General Reyes' handsome face turned as red as his tail: "In any case, guarding Witherspoon is our biggest task at the moment!"
Having said this, the high priest in red sighed and did not continue to argue.
"Why don't we go up to the city wall to observe the enemy first? Maybe we can find some loopholes in the enemy." Liu Zhenzhen saw that he was a little cold and laughed.
This suggestion was unanimously approved, and everyone swarmed out of the conference room.
It was getting late, and piles of bonfires were lit in the camp of Mulan's army.
Although there is no wood in the wilderness, the dry kudzu is still resistant to burning, but the smoke is a bit heavy.
The east and west directions of Witherspoon City are already dotted with mushroom-like tents.
In the warm wind, the neighing of camels and the wild laughter of the Mulan people could be heard in the distance. Because there was not enough wood, the entire Mulan camp only dug a few symbolic trenches. There were no deer villages, fences, or crotches.
Lookout tower.
It was obvious that these Mulan people did not believe that Beamon had the courage to attack them.
They also have a small number of Phantom Beast Air Force attached to the forward corps, but in the absence of observation towers, these Phantom Beast Air Force still have not launched patrols, which shows their confidence.
In addition to the bronze telescope, Witherspoon's Beamon also obtained several eagle-eye telescopes from humans. A group of generals with sufficient military rank observed the Mulan camp one by one. The more they looked at it, the more heartwarming they became.
, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that if he didn't teach the other party a lesson, he wouldn't be able to swallow this breath-------------- After all, their main force still has six or seven days to arrive at Witherspoon. Why?
Arrogant?
"His Majesty Richard, Your Majesty Putra Ni, your guards are equipped with a large number of aviation troops. Since the Mulan people are so lax in spirit, you might as well teach these desert humans a lesson tonight." General Reyes actually had it early in the morning.
I want to say this. With Witherspoon's strength alone, it would be impossible to sneak attack these Mulan cavalry.
"There are two dragon knights in the Mulan Empire, and I have already killed one. I don't know if there are any dragon knights in this Mulan cavalry. Anyway, if they are not here, they are in the capital of Shabak." Liu Zhenshao held the Eagle Eye cliché.
While looking at the barrel, he said casually: "The Mulan people are good at throwing spears, but not good at bows and arrows. Apart from those imams and wizards, the only opponent of our air force during sneak attacks is their fantasy beast knights. If I remember correctly,
The Mulan people's fantasy beast armor should be "petrified pangolin", and its anti-strike ability should be pretty good."
"I really want to send out the Temple Knights now to teach these barbaric slave traders a lesson!" The red high priest shook his sleeves and didn't go back to the dungeon. Needless to say, he must have arranged for the Temple Knights to teach them a lesson!
The mission to attack the Mulan people is off tonight.
"Your Majesty..." General Reyes glanced weakly at the back of the high priest in red, then raised his head to look at Lao Liu.
"One hundred thousand Mulan people are nothing. If we really want to fight, my Summer Palace Guards can take care of them all!" Liu Zhencheng waved his hand, signaling Reyes not to interrupt: "But we are facing a protracted war.
, the bloodiness and arrogance of the opponent must be wiped out at once, so I have an account in my heart. I can’t tell you more about the details! You just need to take care of your own army and hold on to this main city of the northeastern province.
Yes! As for the Pope’s opinion, it can go in one ear and out the other. After all, Witherspoon’s top military officer is you, not him.”
General Reyes nodded silently.
A group of Mulan cavalry flying the Silver Star and Moon flag galloped past Witherspoon City in a majestic manner. Amidst wild shouts, dust kicked up by camel hooves filled the air everywhere.
"What a sharp scimitar!" Several General Beamon and senior advisors from the human military observation group standing on the top of the city couldn't help but cheer.
These Mulan knights did not use whips to drive the cars, but used sabers to beat them flatly. They also roared while drawing beautiful swords while running. Because the distance was relatively close, looking down from the wall of Witherspoon
, the sharp saber held by the Mulan cavalry was clearly visible.
These crescent-shaped long-edged scimitars with strange curvatures are thick and heavy. The blades are covered with wonderful brown cloud patterns, which are very different from the cloud brocade blade patterns of ordinary Mulan swords. When you take a look, you will feel like a cut.
Suffocation in the throat.
"This is a Damascus sword." This is not the first time Liu Zhensha has dealt with the Mulan people: "The capital of Mulan is rich in a rare Uzi iron ore. Weapons forged with that ore are far more powerful than ordinary Uzi ore.
The forged weapons are sharper! It is said that in the Mulan Empire, only the best Capricorn warriors in the royal tent can possess this kind of sword."
As if to show off, this team of Mulan cavalry turned their chestnut camels, turned a big bend in the wilderness, and circled around Wetherspoon City again; this time they showed their excellent riding skills,
All of them leaned over and hung on the saddle, with only one foot hooked upside down on the saddle. The whole person was like a big stretched bird, with scimitars hanging upside down to the ground, following the movement of the chestnut camel.
He galloped forward happily, and wherever he went, the weeds and vines on the ground were lying neatly and silently in a line.
The charm of a good blade can only be experienced first-hand when cutting. Although these Mulan cavalry only knocked down a row of weeds with the long crescent knives in their hands, they could judge from the swiftness with which the blades cut the weeds without even a single grass stem jumping up.
Look, this kind of sword must also be unparalleled in its ferocity when beheading.
When the bearded leader of this team of Mulan cavalry passed by the moat, he didn't see how hard he was swinging his sword. He only saw a flash of cold light. After the camel team ran a full ten meters away, the old tree with a huge umbrella beside the moat appeared.
The toon tree silently split into three pieces, and several large trunk sections that were as thick as a hug shook the ground in turn.
"My day!" Liu Zhenzhen was furious. This toon tree was the only big tree outside Witherspoon. It was said to have been planted four hundred years ago. Under this tree, Cui Bexi made him and Helen understand.
They knew how deep they loved each other, but they didn't expect that this testimony of love would be wiped out by the Mulan bandit with a knife.
Although the generals of Beamon were not as indignant as Old Liu, they were secretly surprised by the Mulan people's superb swordsmanship and the sharpness of their weapons.
This group of Mulan cavalry stopped their camels outside the range of their bows and arrows, and laughed wildly at the Behemoth warriors on the city.
The laughter is still lingering, and the Mulan people's good luck has come to an end.
A row of arrows as dense as a rainstorm turned the camel cavalry six hundred yards away into hedgehogs on the spot.
Although several agile Mulan cavalrymen realized that something was wrong, they all picked up the turtle shell steel shields hanging on the sides of their saddles to block their vital points, but the sharp arrowheads that penetrated the stone did not even bother to block the shields.
It penetrates with the flesh hidden behind the shield.
The bearded officer who had just used his exquisite sword skills to chop down the old Chinese toon tree had a head full of dense arrow tails. At first glance, he looked like a large cactus sitting on the back of a camel, dangling for unknown reasons.
The reason is not to fall.
The servants of the Summer Palace shot the sacred arrows and Zheqin in the same position as the bow, with the bow strings trembling "Xianweng Xianweng", and everyone unfolded an arrow fan in their right hands.
"Who just said you like it? Go down and pick up two Damascus knives for your collection." Liu Zhenzhen crossed his arms and looked at the Mulan cavalry who came in a hurry but did not dare to approach within 600 yards and laughed mischievously: "I
ensure safety!"
Behemoth was indeed Behemoth. After deafening cheers rang out from the top of the city, Witherspoon's city gate was actually opened.
The iron cables creaked and twisted as the hub reels slowly lowered the long suspension bridge.
A group of human senior observers from the military observation group looked at each other and stuck out their tongues at each other.
If it were a human being, at this time, soldiers would definitely be loaded into hanging baskets and lowered into the city to collect the loot. How could Behemoth be so bold?
The mournful horns sounded, and the Mulan camp suddenly showed signs of unrest. A large number of cavalry began to mount their camels, and groups of fantasy beast knights rose into the sky and pounced on Witherspoon.
Groups of camel cavalry patrolling outside the four cities were like ants lured by honey, rushing towards the south of the city in a noisy manner. The open city gate was like a bride being stripped naked, and all the Mulan soldiers were immediately
The wild incitement is in place.
"No need to close the city gate!" Liu Zhencheng stretched his neck and looked down the city tower. He pulled off his Windsor tie and took off his gorgeous tuxedo, revealing a porcupine skin robe and a strong chest.
"Does Your Majesty want the Summer Palace warriors to compete head-on?" General Reyes saw the Divine Comedy Shaman taking a double-edged battle ax from the guard and immediately guessed what he wanted to do.
"On the other hand, idleness is idleness, just take a look." Liu Zhencheng put his fingers in his mouth and whistled loudly, waving his fingers towards the bottom of the city. Groups of heavily armored warriors from the Summer Palace Guards immediately jumped out.
He stood up and rushed towards the stairs with a heavy breathing.
A group of senior advisors from the human military observation group were trembling with excitement. They had long heard that Beamon warriors were good at fighting cavalry head-on, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. Unexpectedly, Commander Beamon had already vetoed the battle in advance.
ideas, now I still have the opportunity to broaden my horizons.
Humans and General Reyes both guessed one thing wrong. Liu Zhenshao did not want to drag the Summer Palace Guards into the wilderness and accept the impact of the camel cavalry. He was not that stupid.
Relying on the terrain is Feilengcui's consistent combat style, and this time is no exception.
There is a suspension bridge outside Witherspoon's city gate, and a stone avenue inward. The width of the front is about 35 meters. This narrow strip has always been the favorite of the Summer Palace Guards. Liu Zhancheng just planned to block it at the city gate.
A group of Summer Palace soldiers attracted the Mulan people to attack.
The open city gate is a coveted piece of meat for every attacker. The so-called city destruction often refers to the moment when the city gate is attacked; cavalry lacking heavy siege equipment will never rush to attack a strong city.
city, but once the drawbridge and city gates are opened in front of them without reservation, no cavalry commander tasked with the mission of siege will give up giving it a try.
This idea of luring you into a trap was also an idea that Lao Liu came up with just now.
The magic eunuchs calmly climbed to the commanding heights of the city tower. There were a large number of bell towers and towers built on Witherspoon's city wall. Originally, such buildings were used for sacrificial demon pets to fight from a high position. Now, in addition to equipment,
Outside the tower with the long-range crossbow, the commanding heights facing the city gate have been commandeered by the Summer Palace Guards.
Knowing that these Mulan cavalry had no archers at all, the servants of the Summer Palace stepped directly on the parapet and battlements, leaned half of their bodies out of the tower, and drew their bows and arrows to target the swarming Mulan cavalry.
"Attention all porcupine warriors of the Pige tribe, you don't need to intervene in this battle. At the same time, I don't need other long-range firepower assistance. If you fight too hard, these Mulan bandits will retreat faster than rabbits!"
Liu Zhenshaan stood on the tower and shouted: "Today is the battle of our Summer Palace Guards. Let these bandits who can only ride camels see what is force!"
"Boom~"
One after another, the mechanical chariots made a heavy noise from the stone road. Under the gaze of countless stunned eyes, the two meat grinder chariots were like the indestructible Taimurraya Snow Mountain, firmly blocking the open city.
At the door, a moment later, the huge sickle paddle and the barbed roller began to spin crazily.
Five meat grinder chariots and two mechanical Gauzens formed a total of three lines of defense. Behind these war machines made of steel and crystal, there was a group of murderous Behemoth warriors waiting for them.
