Chapter 148: Duoduo is coming!
After a battle situation analysis meeting, the existence of those orc troops undoubtedly subverted the original worldview of the generals present to a certain extent.
However, thanks to the previous dose of vaccination from Xia Qi, although everyone was shocked, they were more or less mentally prepared, just as those orcs were some creatures that were slightly smarter and stronger than the beasts.
Moreover, as far as this meeting is concerned, the person who has obtained the most information is definitely Xia Qi, after all, he originally had the concept of "orc" in his mind. Now that he has learned all kinds of relatively specific information from Li Qing's mouth, his speed of understanding and analysis is far beyond that of others.
For example, although the individual strength of orcs is significantly stronger than that of ordinary human soldiers, the total number of troops is not as good as theirs, which shows that many races among orcs may have relatively low fertility.
At the same time, in several battles, the orc army did not seem to have used any decent formations, which shows that the order and discipline of the orc civilization may also be a problem, so many formations cannot be implemented in the orc army.
There is also the equipment on the body, according to Li Qing and the others, the only army that can be called well-equipped is the werewolf army that appeared outside the city before, but even so, the level of equipment is the level of ordinary soldiers in Great Xia.
As for the other orc troops, although the equipment of the minotaur infantry is rudimentary, there are still two pieces of leather armor to protect the heart and the back of the heart.
But the kobold had no equipment other than the jagged and worn spears in his hands.
This undoubtedly shows that the orc civilization is not productive, and even they have no way to produce their own equipment, and those uneven equipment are all looted.
Of course, backwardness is backwardness, and the orc civilization is still very capable of fighting, after all, it is also a special civilization, isn't it?
In any case, in order to prevent another night attack on the opposite side, after nightfall, the number of defenders on the city wall was directly doubled, and at the same time, every five paces, a torch or brazier was placed to illuminate the entire area.
In addition, there are several more teams of night vigil soldiers under the city wall just in case, when the time comes, if the night attack troops of the orcs come over, even if the soldiers guarding the city wall have no time to react, the soldiers under the city wall can ring the alarm bell in time to remind everyone.
After arranging the task of guarding the city wall at night, Xia Qi issued another major order, that is, to transfer all the people in the current Xicheng to the former Great Yan King City.
Xia Qi's move was undoubtedly understood by the people, and the transfer work was carried out quite smoothly, and soon, Xicheng became a military city completely.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, nearly eighty percent of Great Xia's troops have been gathered on the side of Xicheng.
However, you don't need that many troops to defend the city, and if you don't take the initiative to attack, there are only two places in the city where you can deploy troops, one is on the city walls, and the other is behind the city gates.
But in these two places, the space is actually limited, even if you have 100,000 troops, but these two places where the troops are deployed can only put 10,000 soldiers, so what is the use of having 100,000 troops in your city? The remaining 90,000 soldiers have no place to exert their strength at all, do they let them chat and fart in the rear?
This is undoubtedly a waste of troops, so Xia Qi wants to deploy all the troops, and his familiarity with the nearby terrain can be said to be a major advantage for them, and there is no reason not to make good use of it.
In this way, the time of the day passed quietly, and Xia Qi, who was busy with the deployment of troops, obviously did not have time to take the initiative, and at the same time did not plan to take the initiative, he wanted to use the method of defending the city to try the depth of the strength of this orc civilization.
However, probably after capturing the copper city, the other party also needed a certain amount of time to adjust, so at the end of the day, there was basically no movement from that Duoduo.
For Xia Qi, this is just right, because the army under his command has just experienced a high-intensity rapid march, and the soldiers also need a period of rest to relieve the physical fatigue accumulated from the rapid march for days.
And this is his home field, when the battle situation in front of him is stalemate, the major cities in his rear should still develop when they should develop, and carts of ordnance and equipment are being sent here, the slower the other party comes, the more adequate his preparation will be, no matter how you think about it, it is a good thing.
In this way, before I knew it, on the evening of the sixth day, in the dark night, a pair of dark green eyes suddenly appeared.
There is no doubt that the Dodor has started the night raid again.
However, how could Li Qing, who had already suffered a big loss before and paid the price of the copper city, repeat the same mistake?
In the city of Tin City, the rapid ringing of the alarm bell proved that its night attack had not officially begun, and it had already been declared a failure, and at this time, Duoduo, who was still hidden in the night, couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Sure enough, the same tactic, the other party will definitely be on guard, it is difficult to work a second time, the bright wall is simply dazzling, and at the same time, the soldiers on the wall have obviously more than tripled.
The Red Fox Archers under his command were all wiped out by the previous wave of serial explosions, and for a while, they had completely lost their long-range attack methods, and if they wanted to capture the wall again in the night raid battle, the difficulty was probably increased by more than one level, just when it was pondering whether to take advantage of the night vision advantage and attack a wave to try it.
On the top of the wall of Xicheng, dozens of torches that were quickly thrown out illuminated their positions at the moment, and two rounds of arrow rain directly smashed over their heads and faces, and several waves of strong long-range suppression made it quite simply dispel the idea of taking advantage of the night to storm Xicheng.
When the Red Fox Archers were there before, Duoduo disliked their short range and poor accuracy, and never took them seriously, but now that Quan Teniang was blown up, he was really not used to it.
"Withdraw! Fall back! ”
Early the next morning, the sound of heavy footsteps from a distance shocked Li Qing, who was personally sitting at the head of the tin city wall at this time.
"It's coming! Quick, sound the alarm! ”
Listening to the sound of the alarm bell ringing in his ears, Xia Qi, who was sitting in the barracks at this time, was not too surprised, he almost expected that the other party would definitely come.
After all, as I said before, the productivity of the orc civilization is low, and it usually depends on raiding. Previously, all the people of Tongcheng retreated, and the materials left behind were pitiful.
Now, there is not much of the supplies that Duoduo is carrying, and if this continues, the hungry soldiers are afraid that there will be a great chaos. After all, in nature, some beasts are found in the recipes of other beasts.
Xia Qi rode lightning straight to the wall, and at this time, the army of orcs of Duoduo was still far away.
It's not because the orc army is advancing too slowly, but because they were exposed too early, and the weight of those few elephant-men, the sound of walking alone can't be concealed.
But the other party estimates that it doesn't matter, anyway, the army of orcs who are more than Duoduo is an army that is good at just facing it, and there is no need to be cowardly with such a fierce giant army as elephant people.
"Your Majesty." Seeing Xia Qi coming up, Li Qing, White Wolf, Xiong and others bowed down one after another.
"At the time of the war, you don't have to be polite." Seeing this, Xia Qi waved his hand and said.
As time passed, the figures of the three giant elephant men gradually became clear.
The appearance of a human, Xia Qi had already made up for it many times before, but when he really saw this creature that only existed in fantasy with his own eyes, he still couldn't help but set off waves in his heart.
