Chapter 323: Combination of Contradictions (I)
At this moment, the city of Spiegel is completely peaceful, the people in the city work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and their lives can be regarded as quite fulfilling, but sitting in his new office, Luo Ji knows that this wave after wave of invasion wars is not over.
After a period of development and expansion, the large border of the territory brought Luo Ji an advantage, that is, it was more convenient for him to deploy the troops defending the city, because in most cases, he only needed to concentrate his troops on the key peripheral cities, and he could basically do it foolproof, except for one place......
"Your Majesty, report on the battle from the front!" One of the guards rushed in quickly with the battle report in his hand.
Luo Ji took the battle report and looked at it, his two eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, he had said before that in this invasion war, wherever the opposing player invaded, he could basically do it foolproof, except for one place, that is, the grassland!
Due to the geographical location, even the Tiebi City, which is closest to the grassland, cannot expand its territory in a short period of time, which causes Luo Ji's territory to be cut into two pieces, one large and one small, and the grassland is the small one, but this time, the other party has invaded the grassland.
After the effect of this war-free card ended, the player who invaded was still the merchant army, and Luo Ji currently has a total of three cities on the grassland, namely Wild Horse City, White Horse City and Eagle City, and this time it was White Horse City that was attacked by the enemy.
The battle on the grassland was dominated by cavalry, supplemented by infantry, but this time, it was an unexpected nemesis, according to the description in the battle report, the merchant army seemed to have brought a large number of large shield soldiers and spearmen this time.
Without a doubt, this is a pretty classic' Contradictory combination', it is also one of the mainstream playing styles of the slow attack type, the big shield soldier holds the shield in front, and the spearman advances under the cover of the big shield soldier with the length of the spear, which can be said to be a very stable panacea configuration, coupled with the deliberately spread out advance formation, it is clearly aimed at the slingers defending the city, and at the same time, thinking of the performance of the other party during the previous invasion, this merchant army seems to be a fairly typical moderate player, and his actions also make Luo Ji basically unable to see anything wrong.
In the middle of his thoughts, Luo Ji quickly took out a bronze talisman with a unique shape, and then handed it to a guard beside him, "Take half of my talisman, hurry up to Tiebi City, and order Liu Zheng and Zhou Yi, the generals of Tiebi City, to lead troops to help White Horse City!" At the same time, tell them that the first priority is to capture the leader of the outsiders alive, and if they can't be captured alive, then they will be killed, and if they can't even be killed, then they will drive the other party to the depths of the grassland. ”
"Subordinates obey!" Taking the bronze talisman in Luo Ji's hand, Zhou Cang, a member of the escort team, set off immediately after bringing some dry food.
In this battle, Luo Ji did not plan to rush to the front line in person, with the current location of Spiegel City, he personally gathered his troops and then led his troops to White Horse City, let alone a five-day journey, in other words, it was very likely to run in vain.
And he is also the emperor's majesty who has a large territory under his command, usually he has a lot of opportunities, busy government affairs, every time there is an invasion war, he needs to go to the front line in person, it is inevitable that it is too tiring, and it is no wonder that he will accumulate work and become ill before.
After figuring this out, Luo Ji plans to relax his heart a little, the generals under his command are not mediocre, you have to believe in their abilities, it is easy to worry about everything, this can be regarded as his own player's illness.
After ordering everything, and then after eating his nutritious and healthy, but hardly visible oily lunch, Luo Ji stretched his waist, and then said to He Liang, the captain of his escort team, "I'll go float on the lake for a while." ”
During the fishing period, the surface of Mingjing Lake is very quiet, so Mingjing Lake has become the best place for Luo Ji to take a lunch break, and lying on the raft and drifting with the tide has also become one of his main leisure methods, and it is undeniable that this comfortable state can make his thoughts clearer, which is conducive to his development policy after tidying up.
At the same time, on the other side, the White Horse City, located on the grassland, was not so comfortable, and the three-day siege made the merchant army show a strong dedication to breaking through the city gate.
This is actually a ploy arranged by Lin Leshi, and it is a matter of time before the other party finds out about his identity, but it is a round to be able to conceal it, because this can reduce Luo Ji's preparation time.
So this time, while the merchant army was fighting a reconnaissance war, it actually meant to be a little serious, after all, if he could really break through a city, plunder some resources, or even directly kill that Luo Ji and take Liu Ye's reward, then why wouldn't he do it?
Not to mention that this time he also found a good resource point, war horse resources! In the era of cold weapons, it is not easy to raise some cavalry, to a certain extent, in addition to a few special troops, cavalry can be said to be the most resource-intensive class to raise, in the case of being able to grab war horse resources, it is estimated that any player will not be soft, of course he is no exception!
"Keep the siege, push up, push up!!" At this time, the merchant army couldn't wait to occupy the stables in this city, and this wave was definitely an unexpected joy.
Relying on the vision provided by the binoculars, looking at the army in the distance that was constantly attacking the gates of White Horse City, Bai Ze frowned deeply, "Hasn't that guy from Burigud arrived yet?!" Although the enemy's siege force is not strong, in the face of such a continuous siege, White Horse City will not be able to hold out for a few days......"
Bai Ze's light cavalry unit and the Buzhigude archer cavalry unit themselves have the ability to fight alone on the grassland, and their fighting styles are not the same, so they usually act separately in order not to get in the way of each other.
But this time, in the face of the opponent's highly targeted 'contradictory combination', rushing forward is basically a dead end, and Bai Ze's light cavalry troops undoubtedly need a little cover.
And for the sake of safety, the precious garrison of White Horse City obviously cannot be used easily, and there are no extra infantry in Wild Horse City and Eagle City to support them, and the number of infantry troops on the grassland is not much, in case the next round of attacks fails, or if there is some unexpected situation, the infantry troops are lost, and the White Horse City without the defending forces will definitely fall, and even the people and resources in White Horse City will all suffer! They can't afford to take the risk.
In this way, Bai Ze at this time could only patiently wait for the archers of Burigude to come over to cover him.
