Chapter 12: The First Battle
"Pang Zhi, listen, you must take down the city and the pass in front of you within 1 day, and then immediately move all your weapons to the pass to defend. Although the battle will be very difficult, you and Hua Feng must hold on and wait for us to arrive, otherwise the whole plan will fail. ”
Silver Kamen had informed the other parties of their plan before the operation, so they knew exactly what they were facing, and it was definitely not a sneak attack as they had expected at first, but a defensive battle that was undoubtedly like a raging wave, but even so, everyone agreed to his proposal.
Now is the perfect opportunity, they are located on the border of the Empire, there are several strategic strongholds that can be called fortresses, and at this moment, the Empire's attention is temporarily attracted by the actions of the Northern Ruins, and they can take advantage of this opportunity to take those fortresses.
In this way, they cut off the route of attack of the imperial army and only needed to hold it. Waiting for Silver Kamen to succeed in their plan, and they seem to have gained legitimacy, they will be able to completely control a large area behind them.
But because of this, the intensity of the battle will be more intense, and they are no longer as simple as throwing out an identity that can be used, but they really want to gain the qualification to control power in this country, so that even those who want to use them will definitely cooperate with the state to destroy them in the first place.
"It's not easy to keep it."
Pang Zhi felt that it was relatively easy to occupy the level, he just led a group of people to march to the city in a hurry, and launched a siege battle at night, the performance of the defenders of the level can be said to be the most professional in the world at present, rolling stones, thunderwood gold juice, and non-stop shooting, completely suppressed their charge.
Even Pang Zhi himself, relying on his own strength, had no chance of rushing to the city wall, and at most he would be beaten down by concentrated fire halfway through the climb. But, after all, they slackened, taking for granted that the important enemy was in the north, and subconsciously believing that it was impossible for the southern rebels to attack from a few towns.
During the day, they also opened the pass and let the merchants accompany them, even if they raised the inspection level by a level, it was only the level of extorting a little more money, and Hua Feng easily sneaked in.
At night, when Pang Zhi led a group of people to climb the city wall, another group of people took advantage of the attention of the defenders to be attracted and came to the city gate.
Because it was almost a sneak attack to capture the next fortress, the grain, grass and defensive weapons in the fortress were not destroyed, but even so, in the face of the enemy at this moment, Pang Zhi still felt a bitterness on his tongue.
Below are undoubtedly the elites, the elites who have come out of the countless killings, the elves, the dwarves, and the orcs can all be seen in the neat army below, and because of this, Pang Zhi guessed their origins.
"The last army that fought with the Wanderers."
Fortunately, this batch was only sent by the nobles, and only the elite of the Chinese army, which was only two hundred people, was composed entirely of veterans, and the rest were only trained.
"Don't panic, don't rush, take turns attacking, there are not enough of them, it is impossible to destroy our defenses."
Pang Zhi ran around the city walls, trying to create as many illusions as possible of himself fighting with his soldiers, maintaining their morale and allowing them to attack steadily.
"Third from the right, throw 30 rolling stones, fourth from the left, stop shooting and immediately go down to the city wall to overhaul the guns, and prepare for the fourth from the left to go up the city wall." Hua Feng stood on the high platform in the middle of the city wall, adjusting the movement of the soldiers on the entire city wall in a posture of overlooking, perfectly resisting the attacks below.
"It's just a test now."
For the time being, the impact below is still at the level of a group of people filling with human lives, at most, it is the level of making engineering vehicles to rush the city wall. There is magic in this world, and there is also magic that changes the terrain, but because some people did it in the war a long time ago, all cities, especially important towns and levels, are now set up with magic circles to suppress magic.
50 meters away from the castle, it is impossible to change the terrain directly with magic. However, it is not possible to change it directly.
"Is that a new weapon?" Hua Feng's eyes stared at the few things hidden in the woods behind the enemy on the opposite side, and waiting for those appearances was the climax of this siege battle.
Although he really wanted to destroy those weapons, but that was impossible, the group of rookies under his command left the protection of the city wall, and they would definitely be defeated by the other party after the two battles, and only himself and Pang Zhi could sneak out and attack, but Pang Zhi couldn't leave under this kind of attack.
And himself.
"You have to win at the lowest cost."
This is just the initial attack, it is a struggle for those who do not hold the power of the Empire, in order to gain power, and after they and others defeat them, there is a close 98% chance that the army of the Empire will be ushered in, and the intensity of the battle will go to another level at that time.
"Second from the right, pour the gold juice down immediately."
The only thing that can be thankful is that compared to the weak army on their side, their supplies are terrifyingly sufficient, especially after gaining more than 10,000 prisoners, it is really very convenient to make certain things.
The attack below did not stop, even if they had already dropped 100 corpses, the people who wanted to rush up still did not have any retreat, but on the contrary, the momentum of the other party had been overwhelmed, plus.
"All hidden."
"Poof, poof."
A few streaks of blood mixed with something white spurted out, staining the city walls red, and the people near the corpses panicked.
"Don't panic, get into cover now, get into cover now."
"Cut." Pang Zhi swung his sword in a leap, deflecting a beam of light that was shooting at him, and at the same time kicked the soldier in front of him the hip, barely sending him into cover.
The local attack efficiency is not high, even if they are equipped with weapons with a longer range and higher accuracy than this side, and attacking from below and up, especially on the walls with protective walls, the killing efficiency is not high.
But for this group of rookies who have not experienced enough battles, such an attack is enough.
"Three people died, six were injured."
Theoretically, the lowest number of deaths can be achieved without reducing the defensive strength of the walls, but if you repeat it a few more times, it is still very troublesome.
"Woo!"
Suddenly, the horn of the troops was blown on the opposite side, and the soldiers who had been pushing the ladder turned around and returned, taking away the corpses on the ground, and the people who could still be saved.
"Ceasefire."
There is no need to pursue these people, the other party hides in the ladder, or scatters and retreats, and if you want to hit those people with the accuracy of the weapon here, you basically have to splash water, not to mention that there are more important things to do.
"Pang Zhi, you take the three teams to the tower area."
The daytime attack was just to paralyze themselves, their attack seemed fierce, but in the process of charging more attention to saving themselves, the wounded soldiers immediately fell in place and hidden, it seemed that there were many fallen to the ground, but 10 charges were only a hundred dead.
As for what the night raid is, there are two rough guesses, both of which are the reasons for the disappearance of the city walls in modern warfare.
First, artillery fire, enough to destroy the city walls; Second, airdrops.
