The alliance formed by the players' major guilds successively broke through the defense lines of several major fortresses. The defenders of several fortresses also retreated into the fortresses and started fierce street battles with the players.
Players actually thought of many ways to avoid street fighting. Many guilds even organized experts in advance to assassinate the Persian garrison commander. However, the Persian garrison was also well prepared. The commander and various high-level officers were all mixed in with the ordinary Persian garrison.
Among them, even if the top experts from the major guilds were deployed, the senior officers of the Persian Empire's garrison could not be dispatched early.
In the end, without exception, all the major guilds fell into fierce street fighting.
In a street fight, the Persian Empire actually has no chance of winning. The difference in numbers between the two sides is too big. Even if the players risk their lives, the Persian Empire defenders cannot defeat the players.
Especially after the Blood-Shirt Guards took action, the Blood-Shirt Guards' rich experience in dealing with street fighting greatly helped other guilds, which made the major alliances advance much faster.
However, the street fighting between several major alliances of Persian defenders still lasted for more than ten days before the Persian defenders of several fortresses were eliminated one after another.
This battle lasted for a month, and the players finally won. Most of the core areas of the Persian Empire had fallen into the hands of the players. In fact, at this time, the Persian Empire had no ability to compete with the players. The defense line
The fortresses on the map have fallen one after another, and the next thing the player has to face is the Persian Imperial City.
However, the player did not attack the Persian Imperial City directly. The Persian Imperial City can be said to be the largest city in the Persian Empire. Although it is not as large as the Central Plains Capital City, which is a million-level city, it is still a large city with hundreds of thousands of residents.
The Persian Imperial City also has the most complete defenses. The height and thickness of the city walls and catapults are useless. According to the results of the player's investigation, the Persian Empire has deployed a large number of ballistae in the imperial city. Players first have the siege equipment in their hands.
, simply not enough.
Not to mention the Persian Imperial City, which now has more than 100,000, the most elite imperial guards of the Persian Empire, and hundreds of thousands of civilians. The civilians who can live in the Persian Imperial City are the most loyal people of the Persian Empire. These
People can become militiamen at any time.
Based on the current defense of the Persian Imperial City, no guild or alliance among the players can attack it, not even the Fengxiang City Alliance.
In fact, after the Fengxiang City Alliance captured the fortress, they thought of taking advantage of the other guild alliances to attack the Persian Imperial City directly. After capturing the frontline fortress, there would be nothing behind to stop the players, and the players could basically
They fought in an unstoppable manner until they reached the gates of the Persian Imperial City.
Everyone can see that most of the wealth of the Persian Empire is now concentrated in the Persian Imperial City. If they capture the Persian Imperial City, they will definitely make a fortune.
But after carefully investigating the defense of the Imperial City of the Persian Empire, Jingfenghua Qianyuexia and others stopped thinking about those things. Even if Fengxiang City mobilized all its troops and pulled all the players to the front, there was no chance.
Can take the Persian Imperial City.
If you want to capture the Persian Imperial City, it is estimated that all the great guilds must unite.
There are many conflicts between the major guilds, and the major guilds have just ended the fierce war that lasted for a month. They are already very tired and will definitely not be able to continue to advance for the time being.
After the war stopped, the major guilds began to consolidate their own territory. The power between the major guilds basically did not change. Several major fortresses in strategic locations have also all fallen into the sunset. The ten major guilds formed several alliances.
The ones that small and medium-sized guilds won were basically small and medium-sized fortresses.
While the major guild alliances are consolidating the large territories they have just won, they are also actively accumulating strength. This battle in the Persian Imperial City is very important. It is not just a matter of making a fortune. This battle may be the last battle between players and NPCs.
Stand, the end of this war may be the beginning of the competition between the major guilds. And the Persian Imperial City is definitely a strategic location that all the major guilds want to win.
Zeng Yi's business has improved again. It's not just the siege equipment that is in short supply, but the business of the blacksmith shop has also improved a lot. Players from all walks of life are looking for ways to enhance their strength.
Siege equipment is still in short supply, and there is no need to even deliver it to your door now. All the major guilds have sent players to squat on the trading island. As long as one is produced, it will basically be snatched away by the major guilds immediately.
The siege equipment in this battle was too dazzling. Everyone could see that the siege equipment would definitely be a weapon in the fight between the major guilds of players in the future. Whoever has more siege equipment in their hands will definitely have an advantage.
.
In addition to siege equipment, the Silver Empire has also begun to produce city defense equipment. The major guilds are also in short supply of city defense equipment such as three-bow bed crossbows. Jingfeng and Hua Qianyuexia even want to order hundreds of dollars directly through Zeng Yi.
A three-bow bed crossbow was used to arm several strategic locations in Fengxiang City's power.
After the player ended the war, Zhou Yi returned to the capital and reported the battle in detail to the court. Although Zeng Yi repeatedly assured that the player would definitely be able to break through the Persian defense line, the player failed for the first time and still asked the court to
Players don't have much confidence.
After this time, the imperial court was completely relieved. Although the imperial court still only occupied a few military ports in the Persian Empire, and other than that, it did not obtain other benefits. However, it solved the Central Plains imperial court, the biggest rival of the Persian Empire, in one stop.
, this is actually the greatest benefit to the court.
The imperial court can completely say that from now on, no country can threaten the imperial court again.
In addition to reporting on the battle, Zeng Yi also returned to the capital this time to obtain the first siege equipment. At first, Zeng Yi thought that the players all had light skills and some did not need siege equipment such as ladders, but
In this battle, players suffered huge casualties due to the lack of siege equipment such as ladders. With ordinary players' light skills, it was basically impossible to fly up the city wall in the face of the tall city wall and the defense of the defenders.
After this war, many guilds consulted Zeng Yi about siege equipment similar to ladders. Zeng Yi realized that there was a huge market for this type of siege equipment. So he planned to return to the capital and wanted to get it in the future.
Similar drawings of siege equipment.
With the experience of getting the blueprints before, coupled with this war, which equipment was really helpful to the player and successfully broke through the Persian Empire's defense line, purchasing the blueprints this time will be much smoother.
Zeng Yi successfully obtained the siege equipment hook. This siege equipment is a long pole with a hook at the top, a rope or a ladder. It is said in "Kong Ying Dashu": A hook is an object, which is also called a ladder. With a ladder
Leaning against the city, you can use hooks to lure them up. Use hooks to hook the city walls, and the attackers will climb up along ladders or ropes. Hooks and aids can be regarded as a sharp weapon for climbing the city.
