Chapter 450 The Battle of Yaocheng
Chapter 450 The Battle of Yaocheng [Middle]
The greatest weakness of the Dark Magic Knights Legion is finally revealed under the temptation of Sharyla. The Dark Magic Knights belong to the heavy cavalry. In the category of cavalry, speed is definitely not their strength. What's more, the Dark Magic Knights' attack is still completed by magic, even if their owners improve their chant. It is still difficult for the magic speed increaser to release magic smoothly on the fast-running horse. These characteristics determine that it is difficult for the Dark Magic Knight to pursue the enemy who is also a cavalry!
After the Zelei cavalry finished the harassment work, the Dark Magic Knight swam behind them for a while and returned to Yao City again. Another group of attack formations were ready to continue to attack the city, but their formations were neatly lined up, and Zelei's cavalry roared strangely again, like idiots, Dong The commander of Japan also lost his patience and ordered the whole army to return to the camp.
In the next three days, the Dark Magic Knight Legion did not go out. The undead army in the East Japan was indeed mobilized frequently, gathering 200,000 to 300,000 spirits in the four gates of Yao City. The purpose was obviously to stop the harassment of the Zelei Empire out of the city.
Naturally, the Zelei Empire will not be idle. Their cavalry will kill from the east, west and south gates from time to time, break through the obstacles of the undead again and again, and then kill back to the city.
Lei Xianbei used practical actions to tell the island country, 'Your blockade has not been successful at all, and you still need to continue to work hard!'
Although he has broken through the siege of the Eastern Japanese army many times, Lei Xian does not think that he has mastered the initiative of the battlefield, and the senior undead of the East Japan Island country has not yet appeared. Once they join the blockade sequence, whether their own cavalry can break through the battle smoothly, Lei Xian still has no clear answer in his heart, and several rushes have also The few cavalry have suffered a lot of casualties, and they are also very worried about this.
Lei is always paying attention to the Dongxing of the high-level undead in the Dongri Island Kingdom, but he has not found any trace of them. It is also helpless that the Dongri Island Kingdom does not serve the senior undead. The number of high-level undead provided in the demon field is too small, and there are less than 700 in Yaocheng. If it is scattered to three gates, I'm afraid of it. It doesn't have much effect. From the perspective of blocking Zelei, it is difficult for these senior undeads to achieve their goals, whether they are divided or combined. But why must they be blocked? Senior undeads are originally used to attack.
Dongri Island changed its attack method. The Dark Magic Knights Army stared at the north gate under the protection of the undead, but did not launch an attack. Dongri ordered nearly 500,000 spirits to launch a strong attack from the East Gate. At the same time, all the senior undead were put into the East Gate to test Zere's reaction!
Zeley's main force was contained in the North Gate, but Zeley still had a magician's army, plus nearly 10,000 heavy-loaded thorn shield infantry, cooperated with 30,000 infantry withdrawn from various fortresses to attack the undead at the East Gate. After nearly three stalemates, neither side could make much progress.
However, in terms of going out to the Zere Empire, the battles of the East Japan Island Kingdom in several other war zones were losing ground, following the Landsman Mountain Dwarves issuing a declaration of truce and ending the tribal alliance. First of all, the defeat in the war zone of the Conqueror Empire.
The orcs continued to be silent, and no longer wanted to fight with the support of all the sergeants of the East Japan Expeditionary Force in the Kingdom of Acaranti, and withdrew the Orc Legion for various reasons. This East Japan Expeditionary Force was killed by a mysterious team claiming to be the Lanling Legion on a dark and windy night. Department annihilation...
During this war, the East Japan Island State suffered an unprecedented defeat, the disintegration of its allies, and the retreat of the expeditionary army strengthened their determination to take the Zelei Empire!
If the East Japan withdraws its troops, the Zere Empire will also be successful, but the East Japan will still attack regardless of the consequences, and the physical strength of the dead will gradually emerge. In the powerful human beings, they also need to eat, drink and rest. Naturally, the East Japanese army will not withdraw their troops. They are very clear that compared with human beings, they are resistant to Strength is the greatest advantage of the army of the dead.
Lei Xian also found that such hard support was not the way. He immediately ordered the cavalry to leave the city and gather on the left side of the East Japan. If the Dark Magic Knights Legion did not attack the city, don't fight with it. Just pay attention to keeping a distance. While containing the Dark Magic Knights, two magicians were transferred from the north gate to support the East Gate. With the addition of these magicians, the defenders of the East Gate can reduce the number of troops invested, so that there is a chance to take turns to rest. As the main force of defense, half of the heavily equipped thorn shield infantry has also been withdrawn. These people will be transferred to the north gate after a short rest, and have been staying there, where another 10,000 heavy thorn shield infantry Hu exchanged. Defense, with these newly added troops, there will be no problem with the defense of the East Gate.
These actions of the Zelei army are clear to the Dongri Island military, but they have no good way to deal with it. Igar Guni, the commander-in-chief of Dongri, really has no right to let the Dark Magic Knight attack the city. Even if he has this right, he can't make this determination. Although it is important to capture Yaocheng, if For this reason, the Dark Magic Knight Legion appeared on the Internet, which must not be tried, and the mysterious commander of the black knight from the demon field will never give this order.
After a stalemate for a while, the Dongri Island State decisively withdrew again, and the second offensive and defensive battle of Yaocheng ended.
The next day, the undead of Dongri Island disappeared at the gates, and there were no new measures for three consecutive days. The number of soldiers in Dongri Island was not large, so the camp was relatively small. The undead of Dongri Island made the whole camp impenetrable. Zelei's army took the risk to eliminate a few waves of wind demons at night. The mage flew over the east-Japanese military camp fortress to explore. The magicians found that there were several huge tents in the camp fortress of Dong-Japan Island, in which the lights were bright and the figures were shaking. Obviously, they were busy with something.
The magician failed to enter the tent to see what was going on, and Lei Xian could not guess what the East Japan Island Kingdom was playing. After the East Japan had the command of the undead from the demon field, they would not let their infantry participate in the attack. The East Japan infantry was mainly used to maintain the occupied area. In public security, these undead have no ability to replace them.
At this moment, Lei Xian Bailey's expectation for the support of the Holy See because the army in the demon field is constantly injecting into the mainland battlefield has been eliminated in the battles in the past few days. He knows that if the Holy See wants to check it, there should have been clergy, but he knows that not to mention the Holy See's corps now. Even a divine hair and a magic stick did not appear, so he no longer had any expectations and could only rely on himself.
After a short period of calm, the attack of the East Japan island country began again. Their undead army gathered to the north gate of Yao City, and the Dark Magic Knights Legion was also lined up in it. However, the East Japan side did not attack urgently, and their infantry, which had always moved lightly, also left the camp, 50,000 The infantry carried and carried it. Under the protection of the undead and the dark magic knights, they placed countless driven horses in the open space on both sides of the north gate. It seemed that they wanted to use these horses to curb the harassment of the Zelei cavalry against the Dark Magic Knights!
Lei Xian 1 Bailey is not very worried when he sees the behavior of the winter army. He is still confident about the horse rejection. The noso equipped by the assault cavalry can quickly clear the due gap of the rejection horse, which has little impact on its action. But is Dongri this small trick?
Of course not. Iger Gunney and the leader from the demon field also know very well that these rebellious horses can play a limited role. What he needs is to buy them a little time.
After the infantry completely placed the rebellion horse, Dongri made a new move. Their infantry took out round iron barrels one by one. The diameter of Tietong was very small, about the same diameter as the bowl used for eating with his brother. At the back of the rebellion horse array, they put the iron pass on the ground, and then put them into the earth hard. At first Lei Xian thought that the East Japanese army wanted to use these pillars to form a tripping horse rope array behind Ma Zhenzhen, but after Dongri smashed these iron passes into the ground again, he pulled them out one by one. At this time, General Lei Xian knew that what they did not know was not tripping horse rope array and 20 trap pit arrays!
Lei Xian Bailey sighed for a moment. The commander of the East Japan military was really strong enough. This kind of strategy made him have some doubts about some of the information he had collected before. According to the collection of the Zelei Intelligence Network, the commander of the East Japan Expeditionary Force was Ig Guni, who had previously captured the Kingdom of Dihasu. According to the intelligence, he is a mercenary villain. He has no outstanding talent in military affairs. He is a mediocre commander. However, after these battles, Lei Xian began to have a serious problem with his intelligence network. If this is not an outstanding talent, how can he be regarded as a commander with his own talents? Officer?!
Iger Guni is indeed a mediocre commander, but he can serve his boss well. In addition, his driving background has this position in Dongri Island. Zeray's intelligence is not wrong, but incomplete, because they ignore an important existence, darkness. The trainer and commander of the Magic Knight Legion, and also the real commander-in-chief of this expeditionary force, the purple demon Yu from the pagan in the demon field!
If you didn't do it, you are the princess of the conqueror empire, and Lan Yu Ye Leng, the apprentice of Yanawei, the demon demon realm!
All these tactical strategies are under the command of Lan Yu. Lan Yu has always been sitting as the invisible highest military adviser of the East Japan. At this time, Lan Yu also hid in the dark like the Duchess of Sharilla of the Zelei Empire to observe the battle. It is not so much the battle between the two countries as the two countries. The wise woman is fighting!
Falling into a horse pit has always been a good way for infantry to deal with cavalry. Whether it is rejecting a horse or tripping a horse, it also has a certain impact on the action of the incomparable action, but the degree is much lower than that of cavalry, but it is completely different. The impact of sporadically arranged horse pits on the infantry is almost zero, and small and deep traps will not make it. What's the harm?
But it becomes very deadly for the cavalry. The child's deep pit is to step into the hole for the horse's leg. The end must be the horse's leg to break and the cavalry 'fly'. A large pit is definitely a nightmare for the cavalry, but if the cavalry's mounts are all Yaya's mutations. The impact of the horse will be ruled out, but can it be achieved? Obviously, the answer is no!
Relatively speaking, the pit is much more difficult to destroy than rejecting the horse. It is not always necessary to fill the pit one by one. At this time, Dongri Island has arranged a large area of indestructible pit on the wings of the Dark Magic Knight. However, in order to prevent the harassment attack of the Zelei cavalry against the Dark Magic Knight, there are only two options in the face of the trapped pit cavalry. Either take a detour or dodge with superb riding skills. Enchanting is obviously meaningless. If you ride a horse to avoid these pits, the speed advantage of those cavalry will be completely lost, let alone rushing. In the absence of speed, Zelei's speed advantage will be completely lost, let alone revived. In the case of speed, I'm afraid that the Zeray cavalry will be destroyed under the attack of magic before approaching the Dark Magic Knight...
