Chapter 128: Counterattack
Although half of the people died, it was still within Xie Sanlang's expectations, and his goal was to die seventy percent of the people, which was not enough. It's just that, in some ways, it didn't work out for him.
First, he originally wanted to kill a few more village owners so as to reduce resistance, but because of Xiao Yu's reminder, this plan could not be fully implemented, and most of the village owners were still alive. In this way, they returned to the cottage and half of their troops could be mobilized. Second, Xie Saburo wanted to at least greatly damage the Lion King City through this battle, reaching a point where it would collapse with one blow. But the strength of the lion king led greatly beyond his expectations. Whether it's orcs, elves, or ancient guardians, the shock brought to him by such a powerful class is too great. Now, even if he went back and integrated all the bandits, he was not completely sure that he would be able to completely defeat the Lion King City.
So, now he is also struggling with what to do next. Is it to continue to consume more bandit troops here, or take advantage of the fact that there are still a lot of robber troops now, give the Lion King City a fatal blow, destroy the Lion King City at one time, and then go back and talk about integration.
The strength of the Lion King City forced him to make some changes to his previous plans.
"Siege, start now, besiege the Lion King. In order to defend the city, they moved all the nearby peasants into the city, and in terms of food, it is definitely not enough, as long as we besiege them for half a year, they will definitely be finished. ”
In the end, Xie Saburo made this decision.
Siege is actually a very good way to do it now. First, the number of soldiers in the Lion King City was very small, and they did not dare to go out of the city to fight head-on, so they would lose the protection of the tall city walls, and it would be easy for them to suffer a big loss under the bandits' crowd tactics. Second, the Lion King City has not been developed for a long time, and although it has recruited a lot of people, it must be a big shortage in terms of food storage.
It is undeniable that Xie Saburo is indeed very strategic, and he immediately saw the weakness of the Lion King City, and carried out appropriate methods to deal with it.
Moreover, Xie Sanlang also made up his mind this time to prepare to besiege the Lion King City for a period of time, and when the Lion King City ran out of ammunition, he would mobilize all the elite troops and annihilate the Lion King City in one fell swoop.
At first, Lion King City was not in his eyes, but now it is a thorn in his side, and he knows that it must be eradicated as soon as possible.
So, in the following days, Xie Saburo ordered not to attack again, but to besiege the city, so that the supply of Lion King City would be empty, and then he would naturally surrender without a fight.
In fact, Xie Sanlang's move was indeed very poisonous, and when Long Hui and Mu Huali saw Xie Sanlang besieging the city, their faces immediately changed.
They knew the situation of the Lion King City best, and they definitely couldn't help such a siege. Although there are also secret passages that can lead to the outside of the city, relying on that secret passage, it is absolutely impossible to supply the living needs of so many people.
They are all in the city, there is no way to work, there is no food income, there is no food, how much can they buy by relying on the lion king's collar? How many people are that?
The lion king led in and expanded very strongly, and the people moved in a big way, which was originally a good thing, but now it has become a huge burden.
The most important thing is that many of these people are newly relocated, and they have no sense of belonging to the Lion King's Domain, and if they can't eat for a long time, they will definitely make a disturbance, leading to internal collapse.
Long Hui and Mu Huali were at a loss, and they didn't know what to do. Only Xiao Yu still smiles every day, beckoning cats and dogs everywhere, and teasing a few sisters-in-law, which is very happy.
Seeing Xiao Yu like this, Long Hui and Mu Huali couldn't help but think, could it be that Xiao Yu had any killer features?
"My lord, what should we do in this situation?" Mu Huali asked worriedly.
Xiao Yu stretched his waist and said, "Don't worry, we can repel them immediately." ”
Mu Huali frowned deeply and said, "Lord Lord, with our current strength, it is simply not enough to repel them. Although your orc class is very strong, those recruits have lost nearly 4,000, and the bandits still have at least 60,000 or 70,000 men, and if we abandon the protection of the tall walls, we will surely be wiped out. ”
Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "I bet that we can definitely wipe them out, do you believe it?" Bet your money for a month. ”
Mu Huali couldn't help but smile bitterly, if the city is broken, let alone a month's worth of money, I'm afraid the whole family will be lost, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll bet." ”
Xiao Yu suddenly laughed and said, "You are doomed." Call all rest for two days, and on the third day we are ready to fight back, and when the time comes, I will give them and you a huge surprise. ”
After speaking, Xiao Yu's eyes were completely attracted by the cool summer dress that the third sister-in-law Kamina was wearing today.
Kamina looked at Xiao Yu's confused eyes, without any disgust and impatience, but leaned up her chin and looked at Xiao Yu with a provocative gaze, which means that she only has the courage to look at it, and she has the ability to do something else.
Xiao Yu immediately felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling, and he was a little uncontrollable. At the age of the strong-blooded people, how can they withstand this temptation?
Looking at Xiao Yu's appearance, Mu Huali and Long Hui's eyes were full of doubts, but at the same time, their worries about the current crisis also faded.
They felt that after three days, Xiao Yu would really be able to come up with any surprises.
After all, this period of time has already given them a huge surprise, especially Mu Huali, after seeing the orcs' bravery against the enemy and the negligible proportion of battle losses, he feels that if there are more such troops, even if it is a sweep of the world, it will be no problem.
The two days passed like that, and Xie Sanlang called people to the front of the Lion King City every day to scold the battle, wanting to provoke Xiao Yu to open the door and go out to kill the enemy.
But Xiao Yu directly asked the soldiers defending the city to choose to ignore it and wait until the third day to settle accounts with them together.
On the night of the third day, the two huge ancient guardians at the gate of the city slowly moved away, and all the soldiers lined up in a neat line, ready to go out of the city for a night attack.
In advance, they had all received Xiao Yu's order to attack at night tonight and annihilate the robbers in one fell swoop, Xiao Yu already had a strong force as support, more than the robbers, enough to annihilate all the robbers.
Because of the successive victories, and Xiao Yu's continuous sacrifice of more and more strange troops, these soldiers believed in Xiao Yu's words very much.
They all said secretly: "No wonder Lord Lord has always been so confident, it turns out that he has prepared such a huge army for a long time." ”
The Terran soldiers have been blessed with power by Uther, and Uther has opened the aura of piety and is in the most important position for them, so that he can give them the protection of the Holy Light.
On the orc side, Thrall and the Kodo Beast troops were also in the center of the troops, preparing to start the battle and start the totem and beat the war drums of the Kodomon.
Old Niu and Grom were at the forefront of the battle, as the vanguard of the charge.
The troops slowly drove out of the city, silently, and under the detection of the elven hunters, they had already solved the scouts of several robbers one step ahead, so that they could not find the troops of the Lion King City in a short time.
They didn't have scouts with the sight of Tyrande, so the forces of the Lion King City had moved very close, and they still didn't have any alertness.
On the one hand, there is too much difference between their scouts and elven scouts, the elven hunters run silently on leopards, and they can also be invisible, how can the bandits' scouts be opponents? On the other hand, the robbers would never have imagined that Xiao Yu would dare to go out of the city and take the initiative to attack them.
After all, the gap in numbers is too great. Even if it is a sneak attack, it will definitely be the Lion King City's side that has suffered more losses.
Xie Sanlang estimated that it would be at least a while before the supply of the Lion King City could not hold on, so he would make the final blow and come out to attack them.
He never expected that after just three days of besieging the city, Xiao Yu would bring people out.
If there are a few sneak attacks like this, the people and horses of Lion King City are estimated to be lost.
The troops slowly arrived at a place two miles away from the bandit camp and stood still, 1,100 orc infantry were at the forefront, with a hundred Kodo beasts, as the vanguard of this charge, the Terran infantry and the 6,000 or so recruits were together, located on both wings, with the orc infantry charging, and when necessary, they could use shields to hold down the position.
Elven archers, dwarven musketeers, and shamans all follow behind the orc infantry, providing ranged attack support.
Elven hunters are on the move, protecting these ranged units.
Behind them, the 500 wolf cavalry troops were on standby, and when the orc infantry in front rushed up, they quickly plugged in and took a step closer to causing chaos.
Everything was ready, everyone looked at Xiao Yu, waiting for his order, they were all looking forward to where the tens of thousands of troops that Xiao Yu said.
At this time, a mysterious smile appeared on Xiao Yu's face, and he issued an order to the back.
It didn't take long for everyone to hear a buzzing sound in the distant sky, as if a bee was flapping its wings, but it didn't seem to be a bee, because the wings of a bee would definitely not make such a loud sound.
It seems to be a flock of strange flying birds, flying in flocks, and there are very many of them.
Soon, they noticed that these huge birds were flying over them, dense and dense, like a large dark cloud. Looking at these strange things, all the soldiers were shocked and inexplicable in their hearts, filled with a fear of the unknown.
"What is this?"
For the unknown, there is a great fear in anyone's heart.
Even if you are your own people, you can imagine what kind of shock it will have if it reaches the top of the enemy's head. In particular, these flying things don't just bite people like some flying monsters, they do explosive attacks.
Xiao Yu's establishment of Batrider to 1,000 people is an absolutely wise choice, because the bombing can only play a shocking role when it reaches a certain scale and number.
The distance of two miles is fleeting for bats that can fly, and when the robbers' sentinels saw the countless huge unidentified monsters flying in the sky, they were immediately shocked, shouted loudly, and rang the alarm in panic.
But by this time, it was already too late.
