By capturing this main city, Zeng Yi and the others have actually reached the final step in their first phase of opening up the passage between the Western Regions and the Central Plains. They only need to capture a pass on the border between Xixia and the Western Regions, and the eastern region of the Western Regions controlled by the Xixia people.
It basically fell into their hands. However, the last step of this first stage is also the most difficult. The frontline pass borders the Western Regions. At this time, the war in the Western Regions is fierce. All countries have accumulated a large number of troops on the borders. Although Xixia Town South
The main force of the army was wiped out by them, but there are still many frontier troops on the border. According to intelligence, the pass that Zeng Yi and the others wanted to capture had more than 30,000 defenders. Moreover, the pass was completely built according to the fortress, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.
, To be honest, Zeng Yi and the others now have less than 100,000 people left, so they are really not confident.
Zeng Yi and others were not completely sure about directly attacking the pass fortress. After wiping out the Xixia Zhennan Army, they immediately turned back to the main city. The reason why they came here was to help the medium-sized guild alliance attack the city.
The fundamental purpose is actually to use them to attract attention. Only by catching the Xixia people by surprise can we quickly win the pass.
After all, the medium-sized guild alliance is a union of medium-sized guilds, and it has just been formed not long ago. Most medium-sized guilds have no experience in running such a large main city, let alone guarding such a large main city.
Although I was happy to go to the main city, after that, to be honest, all the medium-sized guilds didn’t know what to do.
Fortunately, Zeng Yi and his group are all experienced people, especially the vice-presidents of the major guilds, who have personally participated in city management and city defense wars. Under the guidance of these people, the medium-sized guild has finally become a leader.
The situation in the main city was stabilized.
In order to allow the medium-sized guild to defend the city, Zeng Yi specially recruited everyone to study the problem of the Xixia counterattack in the future when the main city faced the Xixia people after they stabilized the situation.
"Everyone, this place is very big! It is the largest city in the eastern part of the Western Region controlled by Xixia, and it is also a medium-sized city in the region. The strategic location is very important. The Xixia people will never be willing to accept it. If we take away their fruits, it is very likely that the Xixia people will
We will launch a strong counterattack."
As soon as Zeng Yi finished speaking, the vice-president of Fengyun Tianxia immediately said: "Boss Ni is right. Although the main force of the Xixia Zhennan Army has been wiped out, there are still many Xixia border troops on the border. The counterattack of the Xixia people is expected to be very serious.
Violent, you need to be prepared for a tough battle in city defense!"
"Then, after this war, our number is less than 100,000. I wonder if these people are enough?"
"In war, when there are not enough personnel, you don't have your own long-range firepower and can't suppress the opponent. You can only prepare as many personnel as possible and fight for it!"
In addition to giving advice to medium-sized guilds, Zeng Yi and others also helped medium-sized guilds plan the defense of the main city, especially when facing enemy long-range firepower, and gave them how to correctly respond.
The news that the main force of the Xixia Zhennan Army was wiped out and the main city was breached was soon known to the Xixia high-level officials. The Xixia Emperor was furious. If the ministers had not stopped him, the Xixia Emperor would have planned to personally conquer the Xixia Zhennan Army. The Xixia Zhennan Army was destroyed.
, this had a huge impact on the Xixia people. There were only a few elite regiments in Xixia, and one of them was wiped out. Not to mention the impact on morale, the most direct impact was that the influence of the Xixia people on the eastern part of the Western Region dropped sharply.
The main city was breached, which made matters worse. It can be said that except for a few areas, the eastern part of the Western Region has actually been separated from the control of Xixia. This is not only a problem of losing the country, but may even affect the Western Region plans of the four countries. You must know that because of the emergence of Xixia
Regarding the problem, the fierce offensive planned by the four countries has been suspended for several days.
In order not to affect the overall plan of the Western Region, not to affect the stability of the country, and to avenge the Zhennan Army, the Emperor of Xixia gritted his teeth and mobilized more than 100,000 troops from the border troops across Xixia, intending to recapture the main city.
Of course, the Qinjun Duwei Mansion paid close attention to Xixia's actions. Later, the Qinjun Duwei Mansion brought great good news to Zeng Yi and the others. Their target pass fortress was originally garrisoned by more than 30,000 people. Now, in order to regain the main
Xixia actually transferred more than 20,000 people to the city, and now there are only more than 10,000 people stationed in the pass fortress. This is huge good news for Zeng Yi and others.
After receiving the information from the pro-military captain's mansion, Zeng Yi immediately informed the vice-presidents of the major guilds of the news. When everyone heard the news, they all asked Zeng Yi for his opinion.
Zeng Yi thought for a while and said: "I feel that this opportunity cannot be missed. The enemy has reduced its defenders by two-thirds. This is the best opportunity for us to capture wherever we can!"
"Since Boss Ni feels that this is the best time, he might as well start immediately! Xixia people are not stupid. They must know that the sooner the rework is done, the better. Don't miss this opportunity!"
Zeng Yi and others set out overnight. More than 100,000 troops left the main city in a mighty manner. Regarding the departure of Zeng Yi and others, the people in the medium-sized guild were actually very conflicted. On the one hand, they did not want Zeng Yi and others to leave.
After all, they had no experience in leaving. They were afraid that if Zeng Yi and the others left, they would be counterattacked by the Xixia people and would not be able to defend the city. On the other hand, they also wanted Zeng Yi and others to leave quickly. They were also afraid that the big guilds would not leave. They
But I'm just making wedding clothes for others.
In the Western Region at night, the road was actually very difficult to walk. Zeng Yi and the others were walking at a good speed in the first half, after all, they had already walked through it once. However, after passing the canyon where they ambush the Southern Army of Xixia Town, their speed slowed down.
During the journey, the players needed to go offline to rest. Until the next morning, the player army had only walked two-thirds of the way.
I thought that the road would be easy to walk after dawn, but as soon as it dawned, the scouts in front of the players sent news that they had discovered the Xixia army more than a dozen miles away, with more than 100,000 people. You knew this for sure without even thinking about it.
Yes, Xixia counterattacked the army controlled by the players in the main city. After receiving this news, Zeng Yi and the others also thought about destroying the Xixia army, but they did not make arrangements in advance. Facing these Xixia regular army NPCs head-on, Zeng Yi and the others still did not have full confidence.
After careful consideration, everyone felt that the overall situation was the most important thing. Besides, even if they destroyed this Xixia army, they would only help the medium-sized guild alliance, which would not be helpful to their real purpose.
"In this case, we cannot encounter the Xixia army. Let's take a detour immediately to avoid the Xixia army!" (To be continued)
