Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Hyderabad's face. Since the fleet that had just arrived was the Sea Lion fleet, what would be the fate of the two Merchant Alliance fleets that attacked the imperial forces?
Viscount Hyderabad stumbled and almost fell. Then he stepped forward, picked up the messenger's collar and asked, "Is everything you said true?"
"Your Excellency, is it still necessary to deceive now?"
The dejected Viscount Hyderabad let go and was lost for two seconds, and then immediately realized that the situation had completely collapsed.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, we have already entered into a fight with the Austrian Parliament. Please hurry up and take command." At this moment, a messenger suddenly broke in.
When the Viscount of Hyderabad heard this, he immediately reacted. After all, he was just impulsive, but he was not brainless. What he needed to do now was to make a truce with the Austrian side as soon as possible, and then jointly deal with the Central Empire.
He immediately said to the envoy: "Go back quickly and ask your people to stop. I will also ask our troops to stop immediately and give you a certain space. Then we will talk about cooperation."
Although Hyderabad responded quickly, the two armies that had become entangled were not so easily separated. At this time, the Sea Lion Fleet also came to join in the fun, and its naval guns directly fired at the two armies in the melee.
Although it will not explode, solid artillery shells can often bounce two to three times after landing, and will bounce very far. The scene of the cannonball running over the human body is quite shocking. This is still a situation where the bloody effect has been removed. Although the shelling caused
The casualties were not particularly large, but it caused great confusion, especially for ordinary NPC soldiers. This made it more difficult to convey orders from the top leaders of both sides to the soldiers below.
The melee lasted for about 4 minutes before the two armies were completely separated, but the damage caused was irreparable. Counting the previous battle losses, the losses of the two NPC troops of the Merchant Alliance exceeded 20%, and the NPC of Austrian Law
The loss of the troops was nearly half, and the players on both sides basically died 3-4 times.
The merchant alliance retreated a certain distance, leaving an open space for the Austrian side to avoid the sea lion fleet's bombardment.
In the current situation, both the Merchant Alliance and Austrian Law knew that they had to cooperate. If they continued to fight, they would be blamed by the Empire. Therefore, the top leaders of the two parties quickly reached a consensus after a brief conversation.
But the Sea Lion Legion in front of them did not land immediately, so they had no way of starting.
So they decided to march towards the city of Cagliari first, and then wait until they arrived, depending on the situation.
After the two merged camps left, the Sea Lion Corps began to land, but they had to leave some personnel to guard the enemy, so only about 2/3 of the troops that could land were less than 8,000 people.
After completing the landing, Nelson did not dare to lead his troops to follow immediately because he was afraid that the enemy would turn around and attack.
In fact, the merchant alliance and the Austrian-French coalition were indeed ambushing near a hill outside the port. If Nelson rushed out recklessly, he would definitely be attacked head-on.
After waiting for a while, they found that the Sea Lions did not follow, so the coalition forces had to continue towards the port of Cagliari.
Because they had wasted a lot of time at the port, when the coalition forces arrived near the city of Cagliari, they happened to meet the imperial player troops who had just arrived outside the city of Cagliari.
The city of Cagliari, the imperial player's troops, and the coalition forces are just in a straight line, and the imperial player's troops are sandwiched in the middle. There is still a distance between the three, and the distance between the city of Cagliari and the imperial player's troops is farther.
Up some.
For the players of the empire, it was really unfortunate to encounter the enemy here. If it had been a little later, they would have been able to successfully enter the city of Cagliari.
Everyone was extremely excited when they heard from Yun Xiaohan that the city of Cagliari already belonged to the empire, and that a city guard and an elite cavalry force of 500 people would be on their side.
Seeing that as long as they entered the city of Cagliari, they could defend the city, but unexpectedly they encountered an enemy at the gate about to enter the city. The number of enemies was extremely large.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that the Business Alliance and the Austrian Parliament had actually united together.
After a brief moment of confusion, the race began. Although the movement speeds of both sides were not slow before, they were still a little casual. But now it is different. Both NPCs and players have begun to speed up in an all-round way. There is an acceleration skill.
Put one.
The advantage of players compared to ordinary NPC infantry is reflected. They are obviously faster, but the improvement is not particularly much, and when both sides increase their speed at the same time, it is still difficult to catch up with empire players.
However, the coalition forces were not just ordinary infantry. The two camps combined had more than 800 cavalry. The terrain in the port area in front was not suitable for cavalry, so the cavalry from both sides did not participate in the battle, so the losses were very small.
The scene at the moment was perfect for the cavalry. Three teams of cavalry came out one after another, including two teams from the Merchant Alliance and one team from the Austrian Law. The cavalry quickly merged into one force and directly pursued the imperial player's troops.
Compared with the cavalry, the players' speed is completely inadequate. If they continue to run and are rushed by the cavalry group, the players will immediately collapse.
Yun Xiaohan immediately shouted: "Everyone stop, don't run, we can't run, let's gather together. Don't worry, I have made full preparations for this battle. I have selected 21 earth mages alone."
, there are also many players with group control skills and cavalry restraint skills. We can block this wave of cavalry. Don’t run away. If we stop and fight, we still have a chance. If we continue to run, we will definitely destroy them all.”
Perhaps more than half of the troops were acquaintances or members of the Lingqiong Pavilion, or perhaps it was Yun Xiaohan's personal prestige that played a role. The effect of his shouting was immediate, and most players immediately stopped and began to concentrate.
The rest saw the players around them stop and stopped one after another.
Yun Xiaohan breathed a sigh of relief and began to draw a pie and mobilize before the war: "Brothers, we have already won half of this battle. If we can resist this wave, we can achieve an unprecedented victory. Think about the previous
In the battle, our empire did not even have a partial victory, but in this battle we are likely to win a complete victory. Not to mention the huge battle rewards we can obtain, this record alone is enough for us to brag about our awesomeness for a long time."
"Yun Xiaohan, what should I do if I die?" Qiting Fengyin asked, this was a request, this problem was arranged before the war.
"This is no longer a naval battle. Players can choose to spend 1 silver to resurrect in place, but there will be a 5-second weakness time for the first time, and then each time they are resurrected, the weakness time will increase by 5 seconds. Don't be reluctant to spend money, because we didn't enter.
The city cannot be resurrected at the resurrection point in the city. It will take at least half a minute to run from the nearest resurrection point outside the city, not to mention that there are so many enemies around, you can't run over at all.
Now is the time to fight hard. Please cooperate with each other and pay attention to my command. Victory or failure depends on this!"
