Chapter 100: The Fall of the City
"Shall we just give up, sir!" some of the soldiers still refused to leave, they did not want to see Z lose his first city like this.
"Are you crazy? Do you want to be smashed into meatloaf by the guys in the sky?" The commander was also very helpless, but there was no way, he couldn't watch the soldiers die one by one.
"But......" The soldier tried to say something, but was angrily stopped by the commander.
"Go, give me go, go down, hurry up and get me down. "The chief didn't listen, after all, the current situation is still here, and it is obviously not a wise thing to speak.
The soldiers on the walls retreated quickly, which gave the First Coalition the opportunity to open the first wall.
"What!" Hearing the news from ahead, Cheng Jin was a little shocked and a little worried at the same time. Historically, the four empires have never had any air forces. So where did this come from?
The sound of "bang", "bang", "bang" and "bang" kept crashing into the side of every Atlantean soldier. Inside the castle walls are various buildings, and it is also a bustling place because it is close to the coast and some fishermen also fish here, so it is also the largest fish market. But it had been vacated a week ago, so all that was left was an empty building. However, these can also be used as cover for attacks.
"Archers prepare. "The soldiers are all in place, just waiting for the arrival of the First Coalition. The sound of the impact continued to be heard, but I don't know what's going on, the city gate has not been broken until now, which makes everyone on the Atlantis side puzzled. Could it be that the gates were too strong?
"Bang. Surprisingly, the gates were slammed open after the thought came to him. "Archers, release arrows. "Atlantis's side also reacted quickly, and immediately gave a big order to release the arrow.
A row of bows and arrows shot at the front row of the First Coalition Army, and clusters of blood flew in the air, and the First Coalition Army was immediately afraid.
"Raise your shield. "The few soldiers in the First Coalition Army with shields held their shields in place of the soldiers in the front row.
"The angle was indiscriminately shot upwards, and after the shooting, he immediately retreated. Prepare for a white-knuckle battle. "Yes, without the protection of the city walls, once you enter the city, then it will be a fierce white-knives battle. Ranged units like archers aren't of much use here, so they're definitely retreating.
After firing the last wave of arrows, the archers quickly retreated. After all, they don't have melee strength, so they usually practice the ability to escape in addition to practicing arrows.
"Plop", "plop" Every soldier seems to be able to hear his own heartbeat, beating hard. After all, this is their first real fight.
After the First Coalition found that there was no rain of arrows, they also waited for a while and lowered their shields. "Everyone, get closer, beware of sneak attacks. The commander of the First Coalition commanded.
In Atlantis, it's a country, so there's nothing big in peacetime that can be called a war. On the Western Continent, there are four countries, so they are usually constantly fighting, and they have also trained the skills of these chiefs.
It's a pity that the generals of Atlantis have made painstaking arrangements, if they follow his script, then they will definitely bring some casualties and even drag the First Coalition Army to death here. It's a pity that this is reality, not a place in his mind.
The soldiers of Atlantis were a little impatient, and they hurried through the city, luring the soldiers of the First Coalition. "Someone. "There's someone over there. "A compilation of news of the discovery of the enemy spread among the coalition forces.
"Don't go, everyone come closer, don't act alone. "Fortunately, the soldiers of the coalition army were still very obedient, and none of the soldiers left alone.
"Forward, forward. Leave them alone and move forward. "The commander of the First Coalition is very determined, and even more stupid and not foolish.
"What to do, sir, they weren't fooled. The soldier close to the commander of Atlantis asked anxiously.
"Weapon scrambling. In fact, he was also very anxious, and the soldiers of the coalition army had no chance to catch a lone attack, which made him very helpless.
"Boom" "Boom" all sorts of daggers flew in the air towards the soldiers of the coalition forces.
"Don't panic, try to dodge, the shield warriors stand on both sides to defend. "The commanders of the coalition forces are also more vigilant, because this is an unfamiliar place for them, and it is obviously inappropriate to fight the enemy in the shadows here. And their task is to explore the situation ahead, as for the occupation or something, there are special people to do it, and there is a large group of people behind, so I don't believe that they can't be cured.
Although there were some casualties, on the whole, the coalition forces still maintained their combat effectiveness, and the follow-up troops continued to come in, which made the soldiers in the front row feel a little relieved.
But the soldiers on the Atlantis side couldn't sit still, and all that could be thrown out had already been thrown out, and just a few people died, which was useless compared to the army.
Seeing that there was still an endless influx of soldiers behind him, the generals of Atlantis reluctantly gave the order to retreat. The maximum number of soldiers that can be accommodated in this city is 1,000, and the number of soldiers outside is as many as 10,000.
"Withdraw. β
In this way, the first city of Atlantis was conquered. The soldiers of Atlantis were in a low mood, but the coalition army was also in a heavy mood, and there were already such large casualties in the first city, so if it reached the hinterland, the troops would definitely be even stronger.
Although the first city of Atlantis was lost, their overall strength did not move much, especially the soldiers, only a few hundred casualties, which was within Cheng Jin's bearing, if it wasn't for the surprise from the sky, otherwise the first coalition army would have suffered even greater casualties.
"The first city has been captured by the coalition forces. The news of the capture of the city also reached Cheng Jin's ears as quickly as possible.
"What about the casualties of the soldiers?"
"Only seventeen people died, one hundred and twenty-eight were injured. The enemy casualties were around a thousand. β
"Well, tell the generals of the other cities to minimize casualties. If you can take it, you will accept it, and if you can't keep it, give up, the soldier is the most important. Cheng Jin sighed, the first city was captured was something he expected, and all he could do was to consume the troops on the other side, but unfortunately it should be able to consume a little more, but I don't know where a strange soldier came out, it turned out to be the air force, which fell from the sky and directly broke the defense of the city. This made Cheng Jin feel a little pity.
The news from the First Coalition Army also made the soldiers feel a little heavier, this Atlantis is not easy to fight!
Deep into the hinterland, the First Coalition Army began their quest again after a brief rest. In the next part of the journey, Atlantis lost a few more cities, but Atlantis gave full play to its geographical advantages, and they were constantly consuming the strength of the First Alliance, and their own side immediately retreated as soon as they saw that the situation was not good.
However, due to the power of the air surprise army, the First Coalition Army, which could have been completely wiped out, still maintained a combat strength of close to 10,000, but Atlantis only paid just 300 casualties. This made the generals of the First Coalition Army a little angry, and so many people died without doing anything on their side.
It was late in the evening, but the First Coalition Army still did not intend to stop the attack, and after a brief rest, they marched towards it again.
There is a section of Atlantis that is not a transit for Atlantis, that is, the country of China. That's the barbarian tribe. Don't underestimate the barbarian tribe, or you're paying a huge price.
And these are all unknown to the coalition forces, and because of this, the coalition forces have paid a terrible price.
"Stop. The general who walked in the front raised his hand and motioned for the soldiers behind him to stop. "Scouts, go find your way. "There are also scouts in the First Coalition, because they are originally responsible for pathfinding, so it is natural that there will be scouts to better reduce their casualties.
A few scouts were in good shape and immediately disappeared into the air. A few minutes later, the bodies of several people were thrown back. At the same time, an angry roar could be heard in the distance.
The general's face was a little ugly, these are the first-class masters of each empire Actually here, they were basically discovered as soon as they entered, and they were killed and the corpses were thrown in front of them, except for the problem of their strength, they could be thrown so far, and they were slapped in the face.
"Charge. The generals didn't think much about how strong a tribe could be, but unfortunately his brain was not good enough, if this tribe was so weak, how could Atlantis allow his existence? No matter where the tribe is a symbol of backwardness, Atlantis certainly will not allow such an existence.
The barbarians, on their part, also received the message of war. "Roarβ" A loud moo echoed throughout the tribe, and then a chorus of voices drifted through the air.
A sturdy figure gathered in front of the tribe's door. The barbarians have actually been making some deals with Atlantis over the years. Atlantis gave the barbarians some technical support with weapons, and in turn, the barbarians were able to help fend off strong enemies when the front was captured.
Almost everyone in the barbarian tribe is a soldier, so when the moo is remembered, almost all the barbarians immediately take up their weapons to defend their homeland.
"What are those?" the general couldn't understand, could these be Atlanteans? But it was too late to give him time to think.
"Bang. "The two armies collided. The fierce battle began immediately. (To be continued.) )
