Chapter 372: The Battle of Xindu Begins

The mountain of corpses and the sea of blood under Gaomi City have achieved Fang Zhiwen's prestige, and this black devil who was once silent finally showed his fangs again, using hundreds of thousands of corpses and a large area of blood-stained land under Gaomi City to tell everyone that the prestige of the black devil cannot be desecrated.

When Fang Zhiwen took advantage of the power of the great victory to protect the residents of Gaomi City and Zheng Xuan's children and slowly went north, Yuan Shao's troops, who were far away outside the Xindu City of Anping County, Jizhou, finally began to attack.

Either because he was stimulated by Fang Zhiwen's hearty victory, or because he understood that Yiren was just a paper tiger, Yuan Shao went against the previous caution and successively issued an all-round attack order, but Yuan Shao did not get dizzy, he adopted the method of cleaning up the periphery first and finally attacking the city.

At this time, outside the Xindu City of Anping County, it had already become a huge military camp group, and the local officers and soldiers led by Yuan Shao and the troops of the players of the imperial court camp occupied the periphery of Xindu, and the inner circle of the camp around the Xindu City was established a circle of camps for the Yellow Turban Army and the people who had been taken captive, as well as the camp of the Yellow Turban camp players.

More than three million people gathered here, and it was a scuffle on an unprecedented scale.

Less than an hour after Yuan Shao's agent, An Ping Taishou Zhang Wen, sent out various attacks and assisted attack missions, and the largest battle in the history of the game so far began.

The first round of attacks, camp battles.

Similar to the Gaomi campaign, the prologue of the Xindu War also began with the camp attack at night, because Xu You, who came up with the idea, knew the player's work and rest habits very well, so he started the campaign when the number of players online was the lowest, in order to increase the results of the initial battle, and at the same time consume a lot of the enemy's vital strength.

As for the problem that the player troops who can participate in the battle on their side will also decline, there is actually no problem, because now it is not a full-scale general attack, but a battalion-by-battalion raid battle, and one attack is counted as one. Purely for the sake of killing.

The camp in the east of the castle was built on the back of the castle wall of Shinto, with three layers inside and out, and then to the north and south, there were more than a dozen camps, and the camp was surrounded by a wooden fence made of double-layered giant trees, and the middle was filled with mud to form an earthen enclosure. Although the height is less than two zhang, there is no problem in blocking the cavalry impact. If the enemy wants to attack, it can only attack from the front.

Moreover, by laying wooden planks on the top of the wooden fence, crossbowmen can be stationed to form the first line of defense. As for the outside of the wooden fence, there are traps and traps, which has to be thanked for the ability of the Inhuman, most of the skills that the Inhumans have are very practical, and the trap skills are almost necessary for everyone, so. In the periphery of such a huge camp, there are traps all over the place.

It's just that when the war came, these strong defensive facilities made Zhang Niujiao, the leader of the Yellow Turbans in the camp, extremely depressed, because the strong fence and the rotten ground dug outside the fence restricted his access path. The mobile troops could only attack from the flanks, but due to the long distance of the movement, the speed of response was too slow, giving the opponent enough time to set up a position to block the cavalry, and the blocked reinforcements were surrounded by the opponent's cavalry and a large number of Inhuman troops in the dark night.

Zhang Niujiao looked at the opponent's attack method and knew that the enemy commander on the opposite side was a very experienced general. The current Zhang Niujiao is no longer the original reckless farmer, but after formal training, he can be regarded as a veteran who has experienced more than ten battles. This bit of eyesight is still there.

The troops of the officers and the aliens were not in a hurry to storm the inside of the village, because after rushing in. The correct way is to develop to the sides, occupy a wide enough attack surface, and then slowly push inward until the opponent's defense system collapses, and then charge with cavalry.

This tactic has long been familiar with Zhang Niujiao, because under the city of Xi'an Pingcheng, they have been attacking and defending the city for three months, if they don't even understand these basic things, it is better to drown themselves by urinating.

Zhang Niujiao commanded the troops to set up obstacles on the road and deploy defenses on both sides of the road, while constantly replenishing the losses of the crossbowmen behind the walls on both sides, and forming a consumption exchange with the other party, he clearly remembered Fang Zhiwen's words, war is to fight the exchange ratio, find a way to make the opponent's losses greater than you, and you will win.

On the one hand, Zhang Niujiao also asked people to strengthen the defense of the second camp, build new defense facilities, and at the same time dismantle the tents and temporary structures near the second level of the camp to prevent the other side from taking advantage of these obstacles.

As for the West Gate, which was not attacked by the enemy, Zhang Niujiao did not dare to be careless, although this is already the range of defensive weapons on the city wall, but it is difficult to guarantee that there will be enemy sneak attacks in the dark night, Zhang Niujiao makes people defend tightly, and they are not allowed to let people in, even if they are their own people, Zhang Niujiao has seen that those alien camps on the north and south sides of him have also begun to catch fire, obviously the enemy has also attacked these camps at the same time, Zhang Niujiao is worried that the rout of those camps will pour into his camp, which will lead to chaos in his camp, The rout was supposed to head west, and be contained in a camp that was not attacked there.

At the same time, Zhang Niujiao also sent a letter to Xindu City, not far away, asking Chu Feiyan on the opposite side not to send troops to help, to prevent the other party's tricks to send reinforcements, as for the other Inhuman camps that were not attacked, Zhang Niujiao suggested that they hold out and use defensive warfare to consume the opponent's troops.

In fact, Zhang Niujiao's guess is correct, the real killer is indeed the 50,000 cavalry ambushed on both sides of the attacking force, if the reinforcements of Xindu City come out, they will definitely be attacked by this powerful strike force, this is the real killing move.

It's a pity that the steady Zhang Niujiao made Xiao Ji's move to send reinforcements completely in vain, and the troops attacking the three camp gates in front of them have made some progress, relying on strong bow and crossbow troops, as well as a large number of trebuchets and siege crossbows, before dawn, the troops attacking these three camp gates actually took these camp gates, and they are still developing to both sides.

As for the other camps where the player served as the main attack, there were victories and defeats, and it turned into a chaotic battle, after dawn, the 50,000 ambush troops could not be a spectator in vain, and finally began to join the battle to attack other camps, with this strong force, some of the Inhuman camps that had been partially destroyed immediately fell into blood mold.

Powerful cavalry troops swarmed through the broken wall, slashing and slashing quickly destroying the player's defenses, and then advancing into depth, what a sight it was for tens of thousands of horses to march into the camp. It was definitely a human disaster, and seeing this situation, the player was very smart enough to turn around and run, fleeing from the camp gate behind him, running to the city wall of Shinto City, relying on the protection of the crossbow arrows on the city wall, and fleeing along the root of the city wall to the north and south.

The player ran away though. But the troops can't run, and how can two legs be faster than four legs. Then the cavalry that was pursued and killed were solved one by one, and then after these cavalry converged, they attacked another camp, and in one morning, a total of six camps were trampled by the horses, and the north and south sides of the horns were almost empty, and they were already surrounded on three sides.

Although after daybreak, the Yellow Turban Army also sent cavalry from the northern and southern battalions to support it. However, after a short battle between the two sides, the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army quickly fled, because it was definitely not a grade of cavalry, and the battle loss ratio was too scary, and the 20,000 cavalry that the Yellow Turban Army finally made up were killed by more than 5,000 in just one charge, so frightened that Bu Ji, who led the cavalry, immediately led his troops to turn in, bypassing several breached camps, and slipped away against the root of the city wall.

By noon, the results of the camp attack were basically clear. Six of the Yellow Turban Army's company camps in the east were flattened, and all the camps due east were lost, except for the large camp with horns.

Zhang Niujiao had already taken the initiative to abandon the first layer of the camp and retreat to the second layer of the wall, but the officers and soldiers of the attacking camp did not retreat, but camped on the spot, prepared to eat and then attack.

In fact, such a camp could not stop the attack of officers and soldiers with superior numbers at all. Because of the assistance of a large number of Inhumans, the Yellow Turban Army is greatly inferior in siege equipment. Zhang Niujiao also knew that if he kept it, he would definitely lose, but he still had to defend it. Because I can't walk, I can't go into the city.

Can't go because there are a large number of people in the camp, or militia, these militia have extremely poor ability to move, and marching is different from walking, once attacked halfway, without strict training of the troops, it is easy to fall into chaos and collapse, so it is better to camp and defend, at least can consume some enemy troops.

As for not being able to enter the city, it is because the city is already full of young people who have been looted from all over the world, and it was not until this time that Zhang Niujiao understood what Fang Zhiwen meant by the disdainful eyes that looked at himself and others, it turned out that what his beliefs and ideals were all bullshit, looking at what he and others are doing now, it is no different from those powerful people in the world, but they have come to this point, but there is no room for retreat.

In fact, as the high-level of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Niujiao knows that Xindu is a Shura field, a place where people are killed and killed, and the Yellow Turban Army has never lost the idea of keeping the letter, Xindu is here to consume the enemy, and it is also a place to consume their own people, in order to buy time for the cities of Julu, Changshan, and Zhongshan to build and upgrade.

Therefore, it doesn't matter what kind of battle is made in Xindu, the important thing is to delay as much time as possible, so that his father-in-law can upgrade these key defensive cities to first-class cities within the predetermined time, forming the first line of defense based on these three cities.

Therefore, Zhang Niujiao has no intention of running away at all, Zhang Niujiao actually doesn't care so much about his life and death now, of course, the most important reason may be because of doubts about faith, or persistence in faith.

Taking advantage of the interval between battles, Zhang Niujiao wrote down his battle experience this night and the morning to Zhang Mancheng and Chu Feiyan, so that they could understand what kind of enemy they were going to face.

"The enemy general is extremely brave, there are at least two seventh-order generals in the enemy army, the cavalry infantry led by him has a high attack and defense bonus, almost undamaged under a round of concentrated fire attack with a heavy crossbow, the range of the enemy's siege equipment is the standard range, it is not advantageous when attacking the city, but it should also be destroyed first, the command level of the enemy army is very high, and the rotation of the defensive troops must be reasonably arranged, the enemy Inhumans have a large number of auxiliary skills such as chaos, rumors, fear, vacillation, etc., and they must also be prepared for this, and they can use the help of Inhumans with opposite skills."

"Generals, generals, officers and men lined up and prepared to attack 1

"Oh, got it, tell everyone to prepare for the enemy." Zhang Niujiao responded lightly, making the panicked herald a little ashamed, and turned around and ran away after answering loudly, Zhang Niujiao took a deep breath, squinted his eyes through the door of the tent, looked at the smoky sky, and shook his head in self-defeat.
