Chapter 295: Schwaka's Scheme

The Great Xia army pressed the border, and a murderous aura permeated the military array.

It looked like a well-trained soldier, constantly putting psychological pressure on the rabble on the opposite wall.

"Yo, there seems to be something on the wall of this Mor Khanate." The white wolf, holding the monocular, chuckled.

The thing on the opposite wall looks like a catapult. However, the white wolf obviously didn't pay attention to the bit of city defense equipment on the other side.

They have the technological power of both humans and goblins, and in terms of equipment, can they still lose to a group of natives?

I saw that the white wolf waved his hand, and the soldiers walked out of the military formation with siege equipment.

This time, considering that there was a city wall on the opposite side, Xia Qi allocated five eight-bull crossbows and five catapults to the white wolf.

There was no nonsense, the Eight Bull Crossbow, which occupied the longest range, was the first to fire, and in the roar of round after round, the prelude to this siege battle began.

With the precise operation of the crossbowmen on the bed, after only three rounds of fire, the catapults on the opposite wall had all been reduced to rubble.

After directly depriving the opposing side of the counterattack, the siege force continued to push forward, and when it stopped again, it was already in the range of the catapult.

The indiscriminate bombardment of the siege troops officially began at this moment.

The small earthen city of the Moor Khanate, which was built in a short period of time, was too vulnerable in the eyes of the white wolf, looking at the city walls that were quite good, it could not withstand the repeated fire of the crossbows and catapults.

After the catapult smashed a round of boulders, in the face of the extremely destructive attack, the entire wall had begun to collapse significantly, causing the soldiers of the Molkhanate on the wall to panic, which can be said to be completely confused.

As soon as the battle began, as the defending force, the opposite side had already shown a bit of a rout, which couldn't help but make the white wolf feel a little strange.

The walls of the Morkhanate could not withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of the eight-bull crossbow and catapults, which the white wolf had long expected, after all, in terms of siege equipment, the advantage of Great Xia's scientific and technological strength was great.

But the problem is that the performance of the opposite side is inevitably too vulnerable.

According to the earlier rounds of fighting, the means shown by that Schwagka should not be so weak.

Just as the white wolf was thinking this, the half-collapsed city gate on the opposite side had already opened, and a large number of Molkhanate soldiers rushed out from inside.

The white wolf did not dare to be careless, and immediately signaled the siege troops to retreat aside.

Then, as soon as the enemy soldiers rushed into their range, the archers immediately opened fire, unleashing a very powerful long-range shot, almost showing the terrifying power of harvesting, like mowing grass to shoot the Morkhanate soldiers who rushed to the front.

After closing the distance, although the Morkhanate side also began to try to counterattack with a rain of arrows, the melee troops under the command of the white wolf were basically sword and shield soldiers who could attack and defend in battle.

The shield in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers was raised, and the firepower on the opposite side was not a threat to them at all, compared to it, the firepower on the side of Great Xia was much more ferocious than that on the other side.

In the blink of an eye, it was completely a wave of simple and crude anti-suppression.

The melee forces of the two sides quickly collided with each other.

In the face of the well-founded battle formation of the sword and shield soldiers, the soldiers of the Mol Khanate, who were like a plate of scattered sand, although they were numerous, could hardly pose much threat to them.

Relaxed, too relaxed, but the white wolf's brow was furrowed more and more.

"Bailan, what do you think?"

Bai Lan is the white wolf's personal soldier, yes

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It is a talent cultivated and promoted by the white wolf.

Bai Lan, who was suddenly asked, was also very calm, after all, over the years, he had become accustomed to the white wolf's sudden questions.

"Returning to the general, my subordinates think it's very strange."

Hearing this, the white wolf nodded and motioned for Bai Lan to continue.

"Looking at the weapons and equipment of the soldiers of the Morkhanate on the other side, they should all be regular troops. But this offensive method is like using cannon fodder, constantly rushing up, wanting to consume our troops, but not caring about the life and death of those soldiers at all. ”

Speaking of this, Bai Lan's voice paused slightly, and then the conversation changed.

"Of course, it is also possible that the infantry unit of this Mor Khanate itself is only to this extent, after all, the most powerful steppe people are still cavalry, and it is not incomprehensible that the infantry troops are not in the climate."

The white wolf just nodded at Bai Lan's words, but did not make a sound.

Because for a long time before, he was the commander of the Southern Expeditionary Army, and he stayed in the south for a long time, and his understanding of Schwaka, he was far inferior to Silan, Kree, and Hawke.

But there is one thing that the white wolf knows.

A city was built on the opposite side.

Building a city meant that in siege warfare, cavalry would hardly be able to achieve anything.

Because no matter how powerful the cavalry is, there is no way to take the tall city walls.

Under this premise, wouldn't the steppe people, who had also established the city, not know this?

If you can't notice this, you'd be stupid.

In other words, those who own the city will inevitably realize the importance of the infantry.

After confirming this, such a weak infantry unit is a bit too much to say.

But the fact is that the opposing infantry units are just that.

There must be something wrong with this, but the white wolf couldn't figure it out for a while.

During this time, this battle without suspense quickly came to an end.

But the strange thing is that the cavalry unit, which the steppe people are proud of, never showed up.

"Looks like that Schwagka is playing with some ideas I don't know."

Looking at the steppe soldiers who fled all the way back to the city after the rout, the white wolf fell into deep thought.

The border cities of the Mor Khanate soon fell completely into the hands of the white wolf.

As for the defenders of the city, they abandoned the city long before they broke through the gates.

The white wolf did not rush to pursue, because in this battle, the performance of the other side was really too weak, and the cannon fodder-like way of using troops also made him feel strange, and he had to figure out the situation.

The army rested here for a day.

After nightfall, the white wolf, who occupied the city lord's mansion, was confirming the casualties of the daytime battle, and at the same time discussing the next attack with the generals such as Silan and Keree, who had already taken the initiative to turn.

Just then, a soldier walked in and whispered to the white wolf.

The soldiers told him that there was a strange person outside the City Lord's Mansion, and then said a series of strange things.

The white wolf's eyes lit up, and he motioned for his soldiers to take the man to his room temporarily.

He quickly ended the meeting, and after motioning for the white wolf to leave, he went to his room alone.

Long before leaving, Xia Qi specially explained to him that there would be spies who would take the initiative to contact him, and the fewer people who knew the spies' true identities, the better.

In the room, a man dressed as a herdsman sits.

"Great Xia

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Embroidered Guards Secret Agent No. 9, participated in the general. ”

The man bowed slightly to the white wolf.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, the white wolf asked him about the interior of the Mor Khanate.

"During this time, what strange actions have occurred in the Mor Khanate?"

"Nothing strange has happened in Morkhan lately." Hearing this, Nine shook his head and said.

Then he thought for a moment and spoke again: "If there is anything, it is that Schwaka has transferred another force to the border city. ”

This is indeed not a strange thing, during the war, it is a very normal move to transfer troops to the border, but this obviously does not dispel the doubts in the white wolf's heart.

"On the battlefield during the day today, there is no cavalry of the Mor Khanate, what do you know about this?"

"General Hui, I only know that about a few months ago, a steppe cavalry led by Natulu went out through the border city, and the number of five or six thousand cavalry was visually estimated, and it never came back since."

Hearing this, the white wolf fell into a short period of contemplation.

He knew about it.

Before the infantry troops pressed the border, the cavalry troops led by Silan and Kereh fought with the steppe cavalry of Natulu for several months.

Natulu is also a veteran, coupled with heavy troops, in the case of the other party's bent on maneuvering, even Silan and Keree cannot easily destroy each other.

This matter had already been reported to him by Silan and them long before.

"Now it seems that the cavalry unit of the Molkhanate did not return home at all, but wandered outside...... Could it be the idea of some behind-the-scenes attack? ”

"Wait, logistics troops!"

As if realizing something, the white wolf suddenly got up and ran out of the room, and said to Bai Lan not far away: "Quick, go and call Silan and them back!" ”

Hearing the eagerness in the white wolf's tone, Bai Lan didn't dare to delay, and immediately turned around to find Silan and Keree.

Although this logistics force has troops to escort them, no matter what, they will not send five or six thousand cavalry that can resist to rob food!

In the battle conference room, when everyone heard the white wolf's analysis, their faces changed.

Especially Kereh and Silan, they never thought that that the guy from Tulu did not return to the Mor Khanate, but ran away to rob grain.

According to the normal situation, the Great Xia army is overwhelmed, and Schwagka should gather all his forces to resist, right?

Speaking of which, the white wolf also has to admire the courage of this Schwaga.

Isn't he afraid that in the absence of most of the troops, Lao Wo will be directly taken by the army of Great Xia?

Without time to think about it, the white wolf hurriedly ordered: "Leave six hundred cavalry, and the rest of the cavalry gallop overnight to help the logistics troops, and we must not let the Morkhanate cut off our food and grass!" ”

Now in the depths of this grassland, they have gathered nearly 10,000 troops in Daxia, and if the grain and grass escorted by the logistics troops are robbed, then the front-line troops will have to run out of food in a few days.

As for the looting of grain and grass in the cities of the Mor Khanate, even their own people on the other side are dying of hunger, so how can there be any surplus food in the city?

At that time, the steppe expedition that His Majesty the Emperor had planned for a long time had to retreat because of the lack of food.

They were obviously aware of the importance of this matter, and that night, the generals began to gather their forces overnight and set off immediately.

Along the grain transportation route of the logistics troops, an emergency rush was launched!
