Although the Xixia people successfully repelled a player's attack from this huge main city, the deputy general of the Xixia Zhennan Army was not careless at all. Although the player's casualties were not small, compared to more than 100,000 people, they were only a drop in the bucket.
He had less than 20,000 men, and nothing changed. As a last resort, the deputy general of the Zhennan Army immediately declared that the city was in wartime, and all the adult men in the city were armed and participated in the defense!
After the medium-sized guild alliance collected a batch of flying claws, it immediately selected hundreds of elite players from various guilds, including a dozen first-rate masters, and the rest were all second-rate, mid-to-high-level players. These people carried flying claws.
Claw, leading tens of thousands of players, launched another attack.
In this attack, the players absorbed the experience just now. The charge formation was very dispersed, and the effect was very obvious. The casualties were immediately reduced a lot. Withstanding the rain of arrows from the Xixia people, the players rushed to the bottom of the city wall again. The hundreds of soldiers carrying
The master of the flying claw immediately took out the flying claw and threw it out. The flying claw hung on the city wall, and these people immediately climbed up along the rope.
The Xixia people were shocked, and a group of soldiers quickly swung their swords to cut off the rope of the Flying Claw. When the dozen or so first-class experts among the players saw this situation, they quickly increased their speed and rushed up the city wall in the blink of an eye.
A dozen top-notch experts, despite the siege of countless Xixia people, finally protected more than half of the flying claws. The players behind also followed the flying claws and climbed onto the city wall one after another, but the number of flying claws was still too small.
, coupled with the crazy bow and arrow shooting of the Xixia people, although thousands of players rushed forward, they were still unable to open up the situation.
The two sides fought fiercely for several hours, but the players could not make any further progress. When more temporary armies formed by civilians in the city came to support them, the players could only choose to retreat temporarily.
The casualties on both sides were huge, both losing thousands of people. The players were outnumbered, and there was no problem with a few thousand people. The NPC side was a bit miserable, with a total of less than 20,000 people. If this continues, it won’t take more than a few rounds.
, all of them should die. Fortunately, most of the casualties were civilians who formed a makeshift army. This was also a blessing among the Xixia people's misfortune.
The news that the formation was besieged by a large army was finally passed to the main force of the Xixia Zhennan Army. At the same time, the Xixia Emperor and the commander-in-chief of the Western Regions Front also knew the news. These people were furious, especially the Xixia Emperor, who almost died
He was so angry that he vomited blood and immediately ordered the Zhennan Army to wipe out the player army.
It was also because of Zeng Yi's actions that the four-nation coalition forces that had just launched a powerful offensive in the Western Region even stopped their attack the next day. The four nations were not very clear about the specifics and did not dare to attack forcefully for a while.
When Jingfeng and the others saw that the enemy had actually eased their offensive, they immediately knew that Zeng Yi and the others must have taken action. They hurriedly contacted Zeng Yi. When they received the exact news, several major guilds hurriedly took the time to rest.
The Xixia Zhennan Army, after learning the news, had already set off before the Xixia Emperor's order came. A hundred thousand troops, swaying, came back from the border area. As soon as the Xixia Zhennan Army moved, they personally
The military commander's office got the news, and their movements were continuously passed on to Zeng Yi.
The Xixia Zhennan Army returned to defense one after another. It was very simple. They were probably really angry and wanted to come back to destroy the players as soon as possible. The march route of the Zhennan Army was straight forward. Zeng Yi and others could basically see it at a glance. They knew Zhennan.
The army's route back to defense.
Following this route, Zeng Yi and the others quickly found an ambush site, a canyon, which was the only way to go along this route. The canyon was not deep, but the slopes on both sides were very steep, making it a very good ambush site.
Zeng Yi and others immediately led players from major guilds to the canyon, and with several vice-guild leaders, they circled around the canyon. Zeng Yi said: "This is very suitable for an ambush, but after all, the Xixia people
They are elite troops. To annihilate them, we must block them in this slender canyon. If someone breaks through the canyon, there will be plains behind. The hard steel and well-trained NPC army in the plains will cause our casualties.
It’s going to be huge!”
"How to block it? Should we allocate some manpower to block both sides?"
Zeng Yi shook his head, "The Xixia army's tactical acumen must be better than ordinary people like us. They naturally know the importance of breaking out of an ambush. If there are fewer people defending on both sides, they will definitely not be able to stop the crazy Xixia people. If there are more people, it will affect the effectiveness of a frontal ambush."
Attack power!"
"What should we do?"
"How about huge rocks? Arrange huge rocks on both sides. When the Xixia people enter the ambush circle, drop the huge rocks and block both ends. All that's left is to catch turtles in a jar!" Zeng Yi said slowly while looking at everyone.
Upon hearing Zeng Yi's words, everyone's eyes lit up. The third child clapped his hands and said, "Yes, this is a good idea! Isn't it like this in movies?"
The fourth child frowned: "That's how it is shown in the movie, but in reality, there are so many huge rocks. It cannot be done in a short time, and they have to be arranged perfectly so that the enemy cannot see any flaws. Although we have many people,
, but it is impossible to complete the arrangement in less than a day. And with the current speed of the Xixia Zhennan Army, they will reach here in half a day at most!"
Zeng Yi frowned and was silent for a moment, looked up at everyone, gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's delay the Xixia Zhennan Army for a day! I personally led the blood-clothed guards on a run, I don't believe I can't delay them for a day.
!”
"Then I'll trouble Boss Ni!" Several guild vice-presidents heard this and hurriedly said.
"Without further delay, I will now take the blood-clad guards to stop the Xixia Zhennan Army. You should seize the time to set up defenses. The main force will be divided into two and deployed on both sides of the canyon. If there is enough time, in addition to arranging boulders at the entrances and exits on both sides, some can also be deployed on both sides of the canyon.
Boulder! Success or failure depends on this time, I hope you will seize the time!"
As the only heavily armored cavalry team among the players, the Blood Clothes Guards are very powerful in combat. However, Zeng Yi and others are arrogant and would not think of blocking the enemy's 100,000 troops with two thousand men. But they must be held back.
Xixia people, there is no other way, Zeng Yi can only use the guerrilla warfare tactics again!
The Xixia Zhennan Army was very anxious and worked hard all the way, just to rush back as soon as possible and increase the number of defenders in the main city. However, the physical strength of the soldiers was limited. After running wildly for most of the day, these elite soldiers couldn't stand it anymore.
The newly appointed General Zhennan had no choice but to order the troops to rest for a while. Just as the Xixia people stopped to rest, Zeng Yi, with two thousand blood-clad guards, had already reached not far from the Xixia Zhennan Army! (To be continued)
