This time, Lin Ran used more than 1.5 million elite soldiers at one time, including 300,000 in the navy, 1.2 million in the army, and more than 200,000 NPC soldiers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, with the strength of the Yangzhou Alliance, it is not difficult to mobilize 1.5 million troops, and many people in the military department told Lin Ran that if needed, they can mobilize more than 5 million troops in a few months!

Lin Ran laughed and joked at the staff officers of these military departments: "Recruit five million people, I'm afraid that before we reach Shouchun City, we will be defeated, and we won't need Yuan Shu to make a move." ”

Although Lin Ran spoke half-jokingly, it was actually still a little meaningful.

The player army is not so easy to use, especially when the opponent on the opposite side is an NPC army, the player army is extremely prone to a large number of deaths, more than 100,000, hundreds of thousands of casualties at every turn.

As a consequence, the Alliance often has to pay a lot of compensation and rewards after the war, sometimes even more expensive than using NPC troops.

If you win the battle, you can also clean up the battlefield, pick up the equipment that the fallen soldiers burst out, and make up for part of the losses, if you lose the battle, the consequences will be even more severe!

Rao is so wealthy in the alliance, because of the use of a large number of player troops before, he also fell into a shortage of funds for a while, which can be seen that although the player troops are easy to recruit, Lin Ran is unwilling to use a large number of reasons.

Lin Ran's policy now is the policy of elite soldiers, through the cultivation and training of a large number of sophisticated high-level player troops, and the cooperation with NPC troops, in order to achieve the dual purpose of improving combat effectiveness and saving army expenses.

The army of more than one million people drawn by Lin Ran, the three group army groups, brought together almost all of them high-level players, and each player used the latest high-level armor and weapons created and researched by the alliance, and the combat effectiveness of some player troops could even be comparable to that of low-level NPC troops at level 40-50.

In terms of troop scheduling, Lin Ran arranged it like this. Three group armies, Lin Ran divided them into three group army groups.

The first is Army Group East, which has more than 300,000 players and more than 30,000 NPC troops. Lin Ran, the commander of the Eastern Army Group, appointed Ah Fei as the chief of staff of the Eastern Army Group, and Zhao Ying as the chief of staff of the Eastern Army Group.

The task of the Eastern Army Group is to land from the east of Jiujiang County, as a forward force, to open up a landing ground for the two subsequent army groups, and to advance to the Huainan area as much as possible, and to eliminate as much as possible the defenders of Yuan Shu's army in various areas of Huainan when the two subsequent group armies land.

The Western Army Group has more than 100,000 player troops and more than 20,000 NPC troops, with Chu Tiankuo as the commander and Jiu Jing as the chief of staff of the group army. The strength of the Western Army Group was much smaller than that of the other two Army Groups, so it did not take on the task of attacking Yuan Shu's army, but in Yuzhang County on the Western Front, to protect the smooth flow of the logistics supply lines of the entire army, and at the same time, if anything happened, the Western Army Group could quickly wave its division and suppress any enemy recklessness in Yangzhou!

As for the final Central Army Group, it is the main force of the entire army, with more than 500,000 player troops and 150,000 NPC troops, and it also carries countless siege weapons with the army, which is the main force that Lin Ran is preparing to use to attack Shouchun City!

The commander of the central group army group was personally served by Lin Ran, and the staff officer of the group army was served by Zhuge Yan.

The Eastern Army Group under the command of Ah Fei soon arrived at the bank of the Jiujiang County on the warships of the Alliance Naval Army.

"Whew." Ah Fei, who was standing on the huge building boat, took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Dare to rob my Fei Ye's territory, today, Fei Ye, I will let you taste the taste of fart!" ”

Ah Fei stood on the boat, and could clearly see that there were a lot of shore defense troops arranged on the bank of the river, and it seemed that Yuan Shu had raised his vigilance against this strong neighbor to the south.

It's just that maybe because of the news of the defeat under the city of Xuzhou, the morale of these troops is not very high, and if you are careful, you can find that many of these soldiers on the shore defense are still full of vegetables, and even full of a large number of children.

"Even the farmer and the children have been recruited, it seems that this Yuan Shu is really at the end of the road."

Ah Fei nodded to the white strip in the waves behind him and said, "You can start." ”

Langli Baitiao rubbed his hands, nodded his head, and gave the order, "Prepare for bombardment!" ”

At the command of the standard-bearer, numerous large warships carrying a large number of heavy ballistas and catapults turned their bows and aimed their weapons at the shore.

"Put!"

Hundreds of large warships, thousands of catapults and ballistas launched a stormy bombardment on the river bank by hundreds of large warships and thousands of catapults and ballistae!

In an instant, countless smoke and dust rose from Yuan Shujun's position on the bank of the river! The screams and howls were incessant.

"Tsk, this is the tactics of the U.S. Navy in World War II! It's really a bit like that, and the white stripes in this wave really have some ideas. Ah Fei praised from the bottom of his heart.

After ten minutes of the ancient version of "artillery preparation" by the alliance navy, Yuan Shujun on the river bank was greatly intimidated, and had no choice but to abandon the position on the river bank, retreat back for hundreds of meters, and give up a blank distance on the river bank.

"Artillery fire extended!" The attacks of the coalition sailors began to gradually advance towards the front of the riverbank.

The "artillery fire" on the large ships of the coalition naval forces continued to bombard, and those small warships took advantage of the cover of "artillery fire" to quickly transport troops to the shore.

When the smoke and dust on the bank of the river slowly dissipated, and the bombardment of the alliance naval army stopped, the river defense troops of Yuan Shujun, who had just breathed a sigh of relief from the panic, immediately fell into an even greater fear! At this time, what caught their eyes was hundreds of thousands of well-equipped and high-morale alliance troops!

Yuan Shu's army and river defense troops are only tens of thousands, and most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled with little combat effectiveness, and the excellent army has long been transferred back to Shouchun City by Yuan Shu.

After Ah Fei gave the order to launch a fierce attack, Yuan Shujun made some resistance, but he could not support it, and turned around and fled in defeat. At this time, the coalition forces had only officially exchanged hands for less than ten minutes.

Looking at the battle report sent by his subordinates, Ah Fei wiped his eyes in disbelief, more than ten minutes, if this war report is sent to the little white boss, the little white boss will definitely say that he is bragging!

"Well, count the time for artillery preparation, and tell the little white boss that after twenty minutes of fighting, our army has completely defeated the enemy's coastal defense forces, and our army is actively developing into the depths of the enemy's army!"
