Chapter 168: Invasion
"This is natural, now that the orcs in the north of the Sun Never Sets Empire have begun to invade, we will pass them and they will fight on two fronts, and the situation is quite favorable to us!" Philip nodded and agreed with Zhang Wei's proposal.
"Brother, why is our empire so much weaker than theirs?" Zhang Wei asked strangely.
"Why do you ask?" Philip also looked at Zhang Wei curiously.
"Look at people, millions of troops invade at every turn, we only have hundreds of thousands of troops coming and going!" Zhang Wei said.
"That's what you're talking about!" Philip smiled and explained, "There are many reasons for this, first of all, this area is my brother's fiefdom, and I am the commander, so naturally I can only use my own troops, and I don't worry about the troops of other factions coming in."
This is the first point, then the second point is that there is an island country on our southeast coast, where the men are small in stature, but they are extremely strong in combat, and on our east coast, they burn, kill, plunder, and do all kinds of evil. And they are proficient in naval warfare, and we have no way to defend with strong fortifications, so we have 2.8 million permanent troops on the eastern seaboard. ”
"Why does this story sound so familiar to me!" Zhang Wei listened to the movement in his heart, thought of a disgusting nation, and immediately asked, "What are they generally called?" ”
"They are a bit similar to those of Huaxiaguo, they all have the surname in the first place and the name in the back! I only remember the last time I heard a general say that one of their leaders was called Lord Okamura Ninto."
Zhang Wei "......"
"Does this Lord Okamura Ninji have a younger brother named Okamura Ninji?" Zhang Wei asked a vulgar question!
"I don't know! How? Dude, do you know these dwarves? Philip naturally added his "affectionate name" to the group.
"That's not it, it's just that when I was at home, I heard the elders say that they are not believers in the God of Light. Worship an evil god! Zhang Wei remembered the ugly appearance of their divine beast Baqi!
"I haven't heard of this yet, because it's some distance from our mainland. The light of the God of Light has not yet spread there.
"The topic is off-topic, I'll give you 300,000 horses. Two diamond-level powerhouses form a vanguard army, and our large army will follow behind at any time! Philip suddenly became serious, his eyes flashing with a cold light, as if he could directly see through the deepest part of a person's heart.
"The last general commands!" Zhang Wei gave a military salute to Philip, "The last general asks Sal to be the deputy vanguard!" ”
"Agreed!" Philip nodded.
"Zhang Xianxian, now I will hand over the lives of 300,000 brothers to you!" Philip solemnly took out a gold seal and handed it to Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei took the golden seal with both hands, turned around and left the camp.
The troops set off mightily, but Zhang Wei was not in the middle of the team. The leader is Saar, the deputy vanguard. And Zhang Wei had already appeared on the periphery of Dingbao with 8,000 elites selected from the more than 30,000 people left behind by the original 100,000 people.
Unlike the U.S. * Jian Empire, the Sunset Empire found that the Tianqian Mountain Range changed relatively late, so it was built by the U.S. * Jian Empire at the first break, and after the mountain range was the plain, and it was pointless to build a city on the plain, so the Sunset Empire simply gave up the plan to build a city and directly prepared to seize the city of judgment.
And this Dingbao is the closest city to the City of Judgment, the only fortress in the northeast of the empire on which the sun never sets. After Tinburgh is a smooth road, and opening Tinburgh is equivalent to opening the door to the northeastern plains of the empire.
"General, the security of Dingbao is quite tight, and it looks like a great enemy." The probe horse galloped back. Kneeling in front of Zhang Wei said.
"Sure enough, but it's normal, the 300,000 army is not small. If the other party didn't know, it would be really strange! And the news of Wincher's defeat must have spread here! Zhang Wei analyzed with a smile.
"General, what are we going to do. That's all we have in our hands. It's not enough for people to stuff their teeth! Mo Qi said helplessly.
"Has the terrain around this Dingbao been discovered?" Zhang Wei asked.
"Because there was a moat mountain range between the two countries before, this Dingbao is also lively because of its proximity to the moat mountain range. But it doesn't have the slightest strategic value, so there is no official military topographic map, which I have been surveying for the past two days, although it is not particularly accurate, but it is enough for us to use! With that, Mochi took out a topographic map made of the skin of an unknown animal from his bosom.
"The topography of this Dingbao is quite special, it itself is sandwiched between a low mountain range, it should be a city built by the Sun Never Setting Empire forcibly splitting the mountain range, it can be said that it is in the middle of the Heavenly Moat Mountain Range and this unknown mountain range." Mochi explained the leather map.
"The mountain range is not high, only about 600 meters, but there is no way to march, so if you want to counterattack the empire, it is an inevitable choice to open the gate of Dingbao, but the front of Dingbao is not a smooth road, the entire Dingbao is built in the mountains, the city gate is full of ravines and ravines, and there is almost no way for the army to line up, unless it is to open the mountain and build a road!"
"This is really a husband, don't open it!" Zhang Wei looked at the terrain around Dingbao and couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, do you have any good countermeasures?" Zhang Wei glanced at the generals around him, but they looked at me and I looked at you, looking helpless.
8000 people? Attacking such a city, it is estimated that adding two zeros to the back will be in vain. This man can't be arranged, how can this battle be fought.
"General, you don't plan to take Dingburgh with our 8,000 men!" Mochi's eyes widened, his face incredulous.
"A commander who can't imagine and can't gamble will never have a glorious moment!" Zhang Wei stood up and stretched his waist, although he learned to ride a horse when he crossed over for the first time, but he would, and he was good at it was two different things, this continuous long-distance travel made him a little unbearable, the body was nothing, it was a gold-level physique, but he was tired, and there was a feeling of exhaustion.
"Our troops have 2 days left to arrive, what else can we do now? Give me a solution before dawn! There is no rod to blame 20 military sticks. Zhang Wei directly gave the death order.
"Brother Zhang doesn't know what happened now, if his little army is really met by the other party's large army, it will be a little difficult to escape!" Sal thought worriedly.
For Zhang Wei, Sal is still very grateful, not to mention helping him so much in the imperial capital, this expedition is also Zhang Wei's strength to protect Sal, otherwise with his accumulated notoriety, there will be ghosts if he can let him go. (To be continued.) )
