Text: The Great Power Struggle_Chapter 183 Coastal Confrontation
By the time the sun set on the horizon, the outside of Hachi City had become empty.
There are no more sergeants surging before, no stones in the sky, no charging battle flags fluttering. Only the corpses of the soldiers were left behind, the broken armor and weapons, and the battle flags that were still fluttering in the wind before.
The coalition forces retreated, and in the face of huge casualties, and as it was getting dark, Charlie chose to retreat. Hundreds of thousands of coalition troops withdrew from the battlefield and returned to the main camp. The 100,000 Beichen troops on the city wall of Hachi were also greatly relieved.
The previous bloody battle was really not something that ordinary people could resist, thanks to the fact that Zhang Han's subordinates were all decapitated. A group of guys who are not afraid of death and dare to play with their lives can hold the city wall.
At the beginning of the early battle, everyone fought peacefully, and no one was ruthless. Although the casualties are not small, they can still be bearable. But later, because of the erection of the coalition soldiers, the Beichen Army could only use all its strength.
Disguised as a tall building near the city wall, it instantly tore off its veil and revealed its true colors. The tall buildings were instantly transformed into murderous arrow towers, and the crossbows and archers on them inflicted heavy casualties on the coalition forces.
It was precisely in this way that Charlie withdrew his troops early. You know, it's January, and even if the sun sets, the sky is still very bright, and the time is only four o'clock at most.
The coalition forces lost more than 79,000 casualties, and they are already approaching 80,000. There were more casualties, more than 100,000 wounded soldiers. This data almost made Charlie faint directly, which was also a bit ruthless. This battle has only been fought for a long time, but it is only six or seven hours, and the army has suffered nearly 200,000 casualties, and no one is alive.
The coalition suffered heavy casualties, and so did the Beichen Army.
Fifteen thousand soldiers were killed and more than 20,000 wounded. With one-fifth of the casualties in one breath, Zhang Han's heart became colder and colder. Although there are more than 20,000 wounded, and at least 15,000 will be able to go to war tomorrow, none of them will be able to engage in sustained high-intensity fighting.
The combat effectiveness has been reduced by one-fifth, and the future battle will be more difficult for the Beichen Army. The most worrying thing is that the reinforcements don't know when they will come.
Without reinforcements, it is impossible for him to hold Hachi City. There are too many enemies, even if you don't want to fight and consume, you can't bear it for a few days. Not to mention that when the enemy's siege weapons arrive, the duration of the siege will only be shorter.
Today the enemy is new to arrival, and the siege weapons are lagging behind. It can be said that this time is just a tentative attack. But that's it, their own troops still lost a fifth, and they don't know what to say.
The next day, the coalition forces did not come out to attack the city again. All the troops were confined to the camp, not knowing what to do again. The more this is the case, the more worried Zhang Han becomes, not knowing the enemy's movements, it is not good for himself.
On the same day, Zhang Han found hundreds of vats and spread them all over the city, and specially sent soldiers to stay around the vats. This was done to prevent the enemy from digging tunnels and raiding, and with the vat, as long as the soldiers lay on the vat and listened, they could know the movement underground.
For the tunnel battle used by Yue Fei last time, Zhang Han is still terrified. I've seen digging tunnels to steal cities, but I've never seen digging tunnels to complete the strategic layout.
If it weren't for digging tunnels to transport more than 100,000 people behind Hachicheng, Joan of Arc wouldn't have run away. It was the 100,000 people who blocked the seal as quickly as possible, and when Ma Chao ran over, the daylily was cold.
In addition to these, Zhang Han also sent hundreds of detectives to investigate the situation in less than four weeks. lest the enemy take advantage of his inattention and slip away to other places.
The coalition camp outside the second city was bustling, and a small Chinese army tent sounded noisy.
Charlie is in trouble, but it was caused by a big battle yesterday. The casualties were too great, and those players were a little unhappy. After all, they won't gain anything from defeating Beichen Kingdom, but will lose a lot.
If it weren't for the face of the national government, who would fight for the glory of the past!
After fighting for most of the day, they didn't even go up to the city wall, and they also suffered 200,000 casualties. No one will have the heart to fight this kind of battle anymore, and they really can't afford to be hurt!
But this Charlie, today he is still thinking of going out to attack Hachicheng, isn't this Nima a pit of labor? Yesterday, the siege weapons did not arrive, and there were 200,000 casualties, can't he see it?
Now the siege weapons are behind, and at most they will be able to rush over in a day or two, and they will not be able to die after two or three days.
Charlie is bent on destroying the Beichen Kingdom as soon as possible and returning to the real society to get promoted and make a fortune. Players are thinking that when the siege weapons arrive, they will attack the city, which will reduce a lot of losses.
The two sides had their own reasons, so they began to quarrel inside the tent.
This scolding did not end until noon, and the dozen or so people involved looked like tired dogs.
At this time, Charlie no longer insisted, what did he insist on at noon! It's time to eat... The battlefield on the western front of Beichen Kingdom temporarily entered a period of peace for a few days, and the eastern front once again ignited the beacon smoke.
The Union Navy is dispatched!
On this day, the weather was clear, the wind was beautiful, and even the wide sea was calm.
On a small nameless island, a large number of troops have gathered. All kinds of military uniforms mean that they do not belong to one force. On the sea ahead of the soldiers, there were wide troop carriers.
One by one, under the command of the commander, carried their own weapons and rations, and got into the troop carrier. When the troop carriers were full, the ships hoisted their sails and sailed out into the distant sea. Immediately afterward, several troop carriers below raised their sails and slowly left.
This scene is on the sea to the east of Beichen Kingdom, and there are many, many of them. When the United Navy reached the eastern ocean of Beichen Kingdom, Beichen Kingdom had no choice but to give up the many small islands.
And now, the Union Navy is using these small islands to house millions of troops. Today is the time for this infantry army, which has been cultivating for a few days, to land.
The army of up to four million was pulled out by half this time, and the full army of two million was headed for the ocean to the north on countless troop carriers.
They were followed by more than 200 protected ships, all of which were small ships. After all, the navy of Beichen Kingdom has not been wiped out, and the main warships still need to besiege Beichen Kingdom's water village!
Dozens of troop carriers gathered together from every corner of the sea. Subsequently, thousands of troop carriers marched together to Donglin City, the capital of Beichen Kingdom.
The military operations of the coalition forces are well known to Li Ancheng, who is located in the water village. But there is no way at all, he is now blocked in the water village by the United Navy, and he can't rush out at all.
There was no way, Li Ancheng had no choice but to inform his king first, so that the coastal defense troops in the north could get ready. He began to organize his warships, intending to fight to the death with the enemy's navy!
If you don't fight, you can't fight, if you don't fight, you won't be able to talk about it from your own king!
A thousand warships, the strength is no different from before. But the enemy's strength is Nima's cheat, 1,800 ships!
Li Ancheng stood on top of the water walled building, looking at the sails raised above the ocean in the distance. I scolded Arzik in my heart, grandma dripping bear! No wonder this bastard didn't come out at home for a few days, and his feelings were waiting for the arrival of the follow-up troops!
The enemy's warships were almost twice as large as his own, and Li Ancheng really didn't know how to fight. Naval warfare is not as good as fighting on land, and there are more victories with less on land, but naval warfare is all about fighting strength!
I can only rely on the secret weapon in my hand, and with this weapon, I may be able to learn from the water god general Jiangdong Zhoulang in the mouth of the king. I don't know who Zhou Lang is, Li Ancheng just learned from his own king. With tens of thousands of sailors and hundreds of warships, this Zhou Lang defeated the 800,000 army that sailed across the river.
Maybe I can do a miracle today!
A thousand warships were quickly assembled, and then one by one they rowed out from the small gate of the water village. Behind these boats are several small sampans, which are filled with flammable materials such as dry firewood.
Fire attack, this is the only strategy that Li Ancheng can take.
Don't mention anything about the division and siege, it's almost the same as being divided by others.
When all the warships were out of the water village, Alzik also ordered his own warships to start heading towards the Beichen army water village. The two sides are expected to fight above the sea in the middle, and the time before the battle starts is only ten minutes at most.
All of a sudden, the eastern sea surface of the Beichen Army's naval division camp became lively.
Arzik had nearly 2,000 warships under his command, and Li Ancheng also had 1,000 warships in his hands. On the small surface of the sea, there are 3,000 warships. With so many warships piled up, the entire sea was obscured by brown logs.
Countless tall sails completely filled the sky, and all the warships reached their fastest speed, running towards each other for the upcoming sea battle.
The outcome of this naval battle was unknown to everyone, not even the two managers.
Alzik has a numerical advantage, and Li Ancheng dares to go out of the village to fight, and he must be holding the hole cards in his hand.
These minions don't care, all they know is to rush over and kill the enemy. Crowded ships, it is very possible to imagine the beginning of the battle. If you don't rush forward, you will be squeezed to the front by your own ships behind.
The western front has just been flattened, and the eastern front has finally begun.
Xiao Chen stood on top of the Tianlong Platform, staring at the distant eastern sea with a pair of eyebrows.
There, a naval battle with unknown results may have broken out!
