Chapter 357: Dock Chawton's counterattack

Tarke and Wang Jing rushed out with their troops.

Seeing this, Doc Joton wanted to attack, but the wave of explosions just now was too serious a blow to the morale of the army under his command.

Even quite a few soldiers were already frightened.

In such a state, if you force the attack, it will only increase the casualties.

Thinking of this, Doc Joton gritted his teeth and gave the order to retreat.

But where can the speed of ordinary infantry compare to that of a sturdy elf?

In particular, the elven guerrillas who are good at bending bows and arrows in the face of intense sports?

Faced with the situation in front of them, Wang Jing and Tark should have shown the value that elven guerrillas should have.

With the shooting of sharp arrows, further reducing the opponent's strength advantage, Doc Joton, who had no intention of fighting, retreated all the way.

Wang Jing and Tarke want to take advantage of this hard-won opportunity to continue to expand their advantages.

Naturally, it was not so easy to let them go.

Chased and killed thousands of kilometers all the way, until the other party completely fled far away and could not catch up, and then began to gather troops and retreat to the city.

And Doc Joton, who finally got rid of the pursuit with the army under his command, immediately began to transfer positions with the army.

The previous camp raid, coupled with today's one, has now lost two times in a row, and in order to ensure safety, the original camp obviously can't stay any longer.

After moving to the new camping site, Doc Joton had a gloomy face, and when the casualty statistics were delivered, his face was even more gloomy.

A series of explosions cost him seven or eight hundred troops, plus the oil and large engineering equipment he brought this time, they were also directly blown up by the explosion.

And this is still when he reminded in time and made most of the soldiers retreat.

But even so, in the process of his retreat, he also lost two or three hundred troops.

"Damn!"

Doc Joton slammed his fist on the table in front of him to vent his frustration.

Originally, he only thought that Xia Qi was a rookie who had just been promoted, so he should be very easy to deal with.

But as it turned out, he still miscalculated.

This Xia Qi is not only difficult to deal with, but the most important thing is that this guy actually has a flying class in his hands!

In today's battle, I originally wanted to win a big victory, but it turned out that this kind of bad thing happened.

This time, because it was an invasion war, and it was also to probe the strength of the other party, he only brought 7,000 troops.

But with two defeats, he now has only about 5,000 troops left in his hands.

And, even all the siege equipment he had brought with him was gone.

If he retreats like this, the system will definitely judge him as a failure.

At the same time that Xia Qibai got a treasure chest, he also had to lose another civilization point to the other party.

How was Doc Jordon able to swallow this breath?

So, this time he will not give up.

After a few days of rest, on the seventh day of the invasion, the army was again overwhelmed.

This time, he didn't plan to finish anything, he directly set up a formation outside the woodland, and then with the sound of the horn, the army under his command directly began to advance.

Pose for a head-to-head showdown with Tarke.

In the face of such an offensive, Tulk and Wang Jing naturally hurriedly mobilized their troops to meet the attack.

After withstanding the continuous attacks of the elven guerrillas, the main forces of both sides broke out in the forest in the first head-to-head battle!

Taking advantage of the woodland environment, the forest warriors have gained a lot of environmental amplification, and at this time, they are not inferior to the enemy at all.

Tark also personally led the elk knights, charging left and right in the enemy formation.

Because they are in the forest, they are more flexible and have more records.

And the sword and shield soldiers under Wang Jing's command, although they did not get the increase like the forest warriors, after all, they had also been in this forest for so long, and they had already been familiar with the combat in the forest.

In comparison, the offensive of the enemy soldiers was obviously affected to a certain extent, and the complex environment of the woodland greatly affected the efficiency of their operations.

However, Doc Joton is still calm, he has fought invasion wars for so many years, and he has not fought in the forest terrain.

And he knew very well that the troops on the other side were inferior to his.

Therefore, in order to give full play to his superiority in strength, he decisively adopted the means of encirclement, mobilized the soldiers under his command, and constantly put pressure on the opposing garrison from all directions.

On the battlefield where the two armies are at war, the strength of the army is the key factor that determines the outcome of a war.

I have to say that this guy still has real skills.

Under his command and mobilization, the superiority of forces in his hands began to be brought into play rapidly.

The troops on the side of Tarke and Wang Jing, almost every soldier at this moment, had to face the unfavorable situation of having more than one enemy.

The rapid exertion of the superiority of forces allowed Doc Joton to gradually grasp the situation of this war in his own hands.

Wang Jing and Tarke wanted to kill the enemy commander in order to turn the tables and win in one fell swoop, but they were entangled by Dorke and Arnold and other generals on the opposite side.

The strength of these generals is not bad, so they can't get out at all.

After a long time, Tarke and Wang Jing fell directly into a disadvantage.

Because he couldn't keep a cool head in the face of these invaders who set fire to the forest, Tarke temporarily transferred the command to Wang Jing long ago.

Now in the face of the disadvantage, before the formation of the encirclement formation on the opposite side, Wang Jing hurriedly issued a retreat order, with the familiarity of the forest terrain, the enemy soldiers could not stop them at all.

Not to mention that in the forests on both sides, there are also a large number of elven guerrillas to help them cover.

Fighting and retreating all the way, Wang Jing and Talk quickly withdrew to the city of the wood elves with their troops.

At this time, the Wood Elf City has been raised to the level of ten meters, plus some repairs and reinforcements, at this time, it seems that this city wall looks like that.

At this time, Wang Jing wanted to use the city wall to resist the invasion of enemy soldiers.

It has to be said that this hand is useful.

At this time, all the large siege equipment in Doc Joton's hands had been burned in the series of explosions, and there was no effective engineering means now.

Even if there is a large amount of wood here, it is impossible to make any engineering equipment in a short time, at most it is to make a few ladders.

But even so, it was not easy to storm the city.

As a large army of reinforcements, starting from the Elven Administrative Region, even if it is a rapid march all the way, it will take more than ten days at the earliest.

So far, what Wang Jing and Tarke can do is probably only to bully the opposite side without siege equipment, and then defend the city wall.

The army under the command of Doc Jordon fought a siege battle for three consecutive days.

But in the absence of siege equipment, it is just a casualty of casualties.

In just a few days, Doc Chaudton and his party suffered another thousand casualties.

The high intensity, coupled with the heavy casualties, there were already a lot of complaints in the barracks at this time.

As a general in the army, Dorke could only persuade Doc Joton head-on.

"Your Majesty, the casualties of the soldiers are too great now, coupled with the high intensity, we need to suspend the siege and rest for a while."

Listening to the proposal of this capable commander under his command, Doc Joton glanced at Dork with an expressionless face.

"Give the order to go down, rest for two days, and after two days, continue to attack the city!"

Doc Joton clearly knows the state of his army, too.

In this invasion war, there were too many accidents, and many things that even he didn't expect.

For example, there are air troops on the opposite side, and before they can launch an attack, they use his oil to blow up all his siege equipment.

It is precisely because of the loss of such siege equipment that he has not been able to capture this city until now.

It can be said that no matter who is in the situation they are currently in, they will not be able to break through this city.

It would be too difficult to take down a city with a ten-meter-high wall with just a few ladders. It doesn't matter if he rests for two days, he just needs two days to think about it.

After two days of rest, the besieging army, which had recovered a little, was once again pressed.

Probably because of two days of calming down, Doc Joton at this time has regained some of his original posture.

Faced with the unstoppable defenders, Doc Joton returned directly to his original hand.

Fire Attack!

Now that the climate is dry, it's really easy to start a fire.

Looking at the fire that was burning again in the forest, Tarke's face instantly turned blue with anger.

However, this time, without the help of oil on the opposite side, the fire was much smaller than the previous one, and the fire did not spread very quickly.

Coupled with the fact that in this only remaining woodland, Wang Jing had arranged several isolation belts in advance, and with the efforts of the soldiers, the fire was quickly brought under control.

But everyone knows that this is just the beginning.

You can extinguish the fire, and you can continue to set fire on the other side.

However, it is easy to set a fire, but it is not so easy to put out a fire.

This cycle repeated several times, and the soldiers of the defending troops were already gray-faced and out of breath.

The physical exertion is also very obvious.

What's even more serious is that there are a lot of trees and vegetation growing around and inside the elven city, and if this fire continues to burn, sooner or later it will spread to the city behind.

When the time comes, the whole city will be in flames.

Wang Jing and Tarke would never want to see this happen.

At this time, they were undoubtedly pinched by the opposite side, and Doc Joton used this method to constantly force them out of the city to meet them.

"What should I do?"

With the question asked, one after another eyes fell on Wang Jing's body at the same time.

This time, there were no oil drums on the other side to detonate them.

Feeling everyone's gaze, Wang Jing gritted his teeth, and then squeezed out four words from his mouth with an ugly face.

"Get out of the city and attack!"

From the beginning of the fight to the present, they have won and lost each other.

But now, under the pressure of Dock Joton, they had to give up the advantage of the city walls to go out of the city to meet the attack.

The elven priests in the rear quickly buffed the melee troops, and then the city gate was raised.

Wang Jing held his sword high and hissed: "The whole army is attacking!! ”

The soldiers of the defending force roared and slaughtered outside the city, and soon the two armies were fighting together.

With the sound of shouting and killing echoing wildly in his ears, the rich smell of blood began to spread through the forest.

Tark led the Elk Knights, wildly wielding the scimitar in his hand, slashing one enemy after another.

Adolf, who was originally used as a hole card, also rode a giant eagle to participate in the battle after being exposed.

The eagle's claws, which can easily tear apart its prey, combined with Adolf's precise archery, make him a formidable force on the battlefield.

But this level was not enough to change the situation, because the military disadvantage on their side was too obvious.

Now the only way to reverse the situation is to kill the enemy's commander.

But it was clear that Doc Joton was also clearly aware of this, so he was surrounded by a large number of personal guards.

It was not easy for the troops on the ground to get close to him, so the task fell to Adolf.

Adolf, riding a giant eagle, quickly approached from the air and tried to kill Doc Joton with a single arrow.

However, at this time, Doc Joton was already on guard against Adolf, an air unit, and several of the team of soldiers guarding him were specifically responsible for keeping an eye on Adolf's movements.

As soon as he made a move, the soldiers hurriedly raised the shield in their hands, completely covering Doc Jordon behind the shield wall.

And there will also be sharpshooters in ambush, who will not hesitate to attack whenever Adolf is in range.

Although it didn't hurt him, it made Adolf helpless for a while.
