Chapter 357: The Battle of the North and South Boundary Rivers (1)
Although only one arrow can be fired on the battlefield, this arrow can almost take away a human life, which can directly turn the tide of the war for a large-scale war. In the face of this sneak attack by the Qilin Legion, the cavalry of the Russian Empire suffered heavy losses.
Coupled with the total suppression of the undead cavalry, the Loose Empire soon gained an absolute advantage. At the same time, on the battlefield ahead, the vanguard of the Russian army has been basically surrounded by the army of the Easy Empire and has become a turtle in an urn.
After the battle situation stabilized, the remaining Qilin Legion soldiers began to support the battlefield ahead. Seeing that the general trend had gone, the upper echelons of the Russian Empire, who received the news, decisively issued an order to retreat, and the cavalry that came to support was less than 30,000 who fled back.
As for the 500,000 vanguard troops of the Russian Empire, they were directly lost. This is indeed a big blow to the Russian Empire. After deeply experiencing the horror of the cavalry of the Empire, the Russian army began to change its strategy.
Since the Russian Empire had suffered losses at the hands of Lao Jiu in the past, and this time it suffered heavy losses, so that they began to fight steadily and steadily, and were no longer in a hurry to attack. Rather, it was specifically aimed at the combat methods of the Empire, and invented a set of offensive systems.
When the scouts came again with the news of the Russian Empire's march, Lao Jiu was directly speechless about the layout of the Russian army that came back. Because after encountering many blows, the entire periphery of the Russian army was followed by collisions.
As a siege chariot, it was originally used to destroy the city walls, but now it is used by the Russian Empire as a shield for the outer perimeter of the army. Not to mention, for the Russian army's brain-opening method, it really solved the problem of the cavalry raid of the Empire.
In the face of a collision dozens of meters high, Lao Jiu certainly would not let the cavalry touch it. And the other party's collision not only defended against the cavalry of the Xiaoyao Empire, but also, to a certain extent, could defend against the Qin crossbow arrow array of the Xiaoyao Empire.
Due to the large number of collisions and followers, this also led to the speed of the Russian army's march being slowed down countless times, and this also bought time for the Empire. After receiving the news, Lao Jiu began to organize personnel to start building a defensive fortress at the southern end of the Northeast Boundary River Bridge.
At the same time, the Empire had to change its previous battle plan, and while defending, it sent various armies to cross the north-south boundary river first, hiding the army in the territory of the Russian Empire, ready to fight a surprise battle with the Russian army at any time.
If all the troops of the Russian Empire are allowed to reach the North and South Boundary Rivers, then with the current strength of the Empire in the North and South Boundary Rivers, it will not be able to stop the all-out attack of the Russian Empire at all. Therefore, Lao Jiu directly set the target in the rear of the Russian army.
Millions of troops are heading south, and the front of the army alone is a little terrifying. Every time we set up camp, the distance between the front end and the end of the army was thousands of miles away. And along the way to the south, the Russian army cannot be rigorously defended everywhere, and there are always flaws exposed.
And Lao Jiu's main task is to sneak attack along the road with the undead cavalry, and do his best to slow down the Russian army's march. At the same time, it creates opportunities for a sneak attack for the 500,000 troops that entered the territory of the Russian Empire.
Originally, with the speed of the Russian army, it would take ten days to reach the north bank of the north and south boundary rivers, but under the constant harassment of Lao Jiu and the ambush and sneak attack of various armies, the speed of the Russian army's southward movement was slowed down several times.
It took them more than a month all the way before the vanguard troops could reach the north-south boundary river, and all the way south, in the continuous battles with the Xiaoyao Empire, the Russian army once again lost nearly 500,000 troops.
But the situation of the Empire is also unsatisfactory, and the 500,000 army has also suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, which makes Lao Jiu very helpless. Since the current ranks of the army, as well as the equipment, are almost equal, the necessary losses are inevitable.
Fortunately, the death of these soldiers is also of great significance, and during the period of time they have been fighting, the defensive fortress of the Northeast Boundary River Bridge has been built. And the grain production base outside the customs also began to harvest grain in large quantities and then transport it to the Xiaoyao Empire.
In order to be in a hurry, Lao Jiu mobilized almost all the large-scale space equipment of the Xiaoyao Empire, and made every effort to transfer the recently harvested grain. And mobilized five million soldiers, recruited by the Easy Empire, to come to the war.
For this inevitable war, Lao Jiu decided to be: the battle to defend the north and south boundary rivers! In Lao Jiu's plan, the five million troops of the Russian Empire must all be eaten this time. Because this time, he must beat the Russian Empire in pain and fear! Let them never dare again, and easily wave their troops south!
Through the river transportation of the north-south boundary river, Lao Jiu directly let two million troops land on the southeastern border of the Russian Empire, so that the entire army was divided into zero, and every 100,000 troops were divided into a team, and began to enter from the southeastern border of the Russian Empire, all the way north.
They had only one mission, which was to capture the city of Volz on the southeastern border of the Russian Empire within ten days, and then obtain supplies to recuperate. This time it can be said that if you don't succeed, you will succeed, because if you want to defend the north-south boundary river, you must first cut off the logistics supply of the Russian Empire.
Otherwise, if this battle is really fought, the consumption of the Xiaoyao Empire will also become a huge burden. In addition, the remaining two million troops were stationed south of the Boundary River along the road, while the other one million troops were ready to support the fortress of the Northeast Boundary River Bridge.
The first task of the Empire is not to attack, but to protect the north and south boundary rivers, so that it is difficult for the enemy to cross the boundary river. Lao Jiu, with more than 400,000 cavalry, began to approach the city of Amur, and he wanted to take the city of Amur in one fell swoop before the enemy reacted.
For this city that has changed hands several times, Lao Jiu is still very familiar. For a city without the protection of an artifact, it is still very easy for Lao Jiu to capture it. Because only he could have taken it directly from the inside of a city.
And for attacks from within, it is often the deadliest. When the southward army of the Russian Empire had just left the city of Amur for hundreds of kilometers, Lao Jiu led the undead cavalry and raided the city of Amur overnight.
In just one night, the entire city of Amur changed hands. In desperation, the Russian Empire began to retreat a million troops, wanting to deal with the more than 400,000 Kirin troops in the city first. Lao Jiu did not intend to occupy this city, but chose to destroy it.
If his 400,000 cavalry is really trapped in Amur City by the Russian army, then it is likely that these cavalry will eventually be consumed by the Russian Empire. Therefore, Lao Jiu decisively chose to abandon the city, let the army take away all the materials that could be taken, and then set it on fire, and destroyed a large number of city walls.
In just one morning, the entire city of Amur was almost in ruins. The 400,000-strong army, under the command of Lao Jiu, began to march all the way east, preparing to make peace with the army that landed on the southeast border, and then take the city of Volz in one fell swoop.
And Lao Jiu led 10,000 undead cavalry to break off, directly cutting off the hope of the Russian army's pursuit, and disrupted the Russian Empire's military formation, slaughtering a lot of Russian soldiers. After many times facing the undead cavalry, the Russian Empire finally showed its hole cards.
An eighty-level army of 10,000 players began the hunt for the undead cavalry. And the scout team of the Russian Empire has all been replaced by eighty-level masters. After learning of the information on the southeastern border, the city of Walz began to enter the first level of alert, and began to quickly become a soldier.
Lao Jiu took the special forces of the Russian Empire, and after two days of turning, he still could not escape the interception of the other party, and in a canyon, the two sides finally officially met. This time is the real test for the undead cavalry, because they are facing the real army of the Russian Empire.
And not an army in general, which is likely to inflict considerable losses on the undead cavalry. Along the way, Lao Jiu also wanted to let the undead cavalry directly enter the Heshi Bi to hide, but in the end he gave up.
Because for Lao Jiu, this kind of war in the face of death is what the undead cavalry really needs in the process of growing up. Therefore, he also wants to pass this test and test how strong the undead cavalry is!
For the undead cavalry, Lao Jiu has poured countless efforts, if they can't deal with it, there is an army composed of player masters, then they will lose the meaning of their existence. Therefore, Lao Jiu was ruthless this time, wanting to test the true strength of these undead cavalry at the cost of death.
In the battle of level 80, as soon as the two sides come into contact, it is flying sand and stones. With the charge of the undead cavalry, the entire battlefield was quickly spread out, and the two sides directly started hand-to-hand combat, and the cooperation between the two warriors became extremely important.
Because the strength of the two sides is equal, the equipment used is also top-notch. The only thing you can rely on is a wealth of combat experience and the cooperation between your teammates. The good thing is that on the side of the Easy Empire, there is Lao Jiu, the god of killing.
With Lao Jiu's strength, interspersed throughout the battlefield, his strange body style, coupled with his domineering marksmanship, almost every blow will take the life of an enemy soldier. And from time to time, you can help your own undead cavalry.
After discovering the horror of Lao Jiu, the players of the Russian Empire actually began to form a combined battle formation and began to besiege Lao Jiu with dozens of people. However, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. In the case of a difference of hundreds of times in strength, any combined attack tactics will seem so pale.
Because Lao Jiu didn't intend to play tricks with them, it was completely a barbaric tactic, and with his own speed and strength advantage, he could completely crush them. It was the simplest one that swept through thousands of troops, and the other five tried to resist together.
turned out to be one dead and four injured, which directly made the other party give up the idea of confronting Lao Jiu, and could only rely on more people to contain it. However, it is useless, Lao Jiu's superb pseudo-god costume is not an ornament, using a strong defense, killing almost no enemies anywhere.
When Lao Jiu broke out with all his strength, he almost became the most incomprehensible person on the battlefield. He is like a bug in the war, so that the Russian army has nothing to do. In just half an hour, the Russian masters who died in the hands of Lao Jiu directly exceeded two hundred.
