Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 309: Zhan Tianji
"Young Master Zhao has to be saved."
Tian Ji commanded an army of 50,000 people to support Zhao Gongzi's army. The special arms and the common Qingzhou crossbowmen opened the way with arrows, forcing Hua Mulan's reconnaissance army and Joan of Arc's servant army to retreat.
On the periphery of Tian Ji's army were armored soldiers with halberd shields, protecting the crossbowmen from cavalry assaults.
"What should I do now?"
Joan of Arc's Servant Legion has ten thousand people, facing the calm Tian Ji's army, it is impossible to start. The attack meant a volley of large numbers of crossbowmen, with heavy casualties.
Servants are cannon fodder, but cannon fodder is also valuable.
Hua Mulan also has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, wandering around Tian Ji's army, looking for opportunities.
On the other side, the white-robed army had already drowned Zhao Gongzi's central army.
Zhao Gongzi led his own soldiers to retreat, and he was no longer able to control the situation.
Xuzhou's legions were all elite divisions, coupled with the betrayal of the Yellow Turban Legion, Zhao Gongzi's legion collapsed directly and fell into a melee.
"The Fifth School of the Northern Army and Yan Jia turned to attack Tian Ji's army!"
Chu Tian discovered that only the White Pao Army could destroy Zhao Gongzi's camp, so he asked Yan Jia and the Fifth School of the Northern Army to deal with Qi's attack.
The heavily armored and shielded Yanjia soldiers lined up to prevent Tian Ji's army from being rescued.
The archers of the Shesheng Battalion threw a rain of arrows and fell into Tian Ji's army!
The longbowmen of the Shesheng Battalion had a longer range than horse archery. When the arrows rained, many bowmen and infantrymen of Tian Ji's army were shot dead!
Tian Ji was surprised by the fierce arrow rain from the Shesheng Battalion, which brought a lot of losses to his army.
"That's Yan Jia? Let them know that the Qingzhou Legion is not easy to mess with!"
Tian Ji pointed forward with his long sword, fired his long bow and individual crossbow, and fired ten thousand arrows. He used a rain of arrows that was denser than that of the Shooting Sound Battalion to counterattack!
Although Tian Ji's army only had about 3,000 Qi Qi strikes, there were a large number of Qingzhou crossbowmen who were superior to Tier 3, so the arrows formed by the interweaving were impervious to the wind.
Yanjia used shields to pile up tortoise shells. When the rain of arrows fell from the sky, the arrows collided with the shield, and most of the arrows were blocked!
A low-level bowman will do little damage to a seventh-level Yanjia!
The rear archers of the Shooting Battalion have more casualties!
"As expected of a Qi attack, Yan Jia stepped forward to attack, followed by the infantry battalion and the Shesheng battalion to cover!"
Chu Tian commanded the Fifth School of the Northern Army and Yan Jia assigned by Le Yi, who took the initiative to attack Tian Ji's army, which was far more numerous than his own.
The infantry battalion and the Shesheng battalion have a total of 6,000 people, and the Yanjia is only 7,000 people, but these are elite divisions!
Chutian saw that the two legions of Mulan and Joan of Arc were walking around Tian Ji's legion. He believed that as long as he took the initiative to attack, the two legions would cooperate with him.
If Mulan doesn't cooperate, she will have to serve her family when she returns.
Yan Jia took a neat step, first marching normally, then starting to trot, charging against the cloud-like rain of arrows!
Iron arrows keep hitting shields and armor, sparks flying at the moment the iron strikes!
The rain of arrows failed to stop Yanjia's offensive! This is the terrible thing about high-level heavy infantry and high-level heavy cavalry!
They sacrifice mobility for great defense!
Even Chutian currently has only 1,000 staff for Yanjia, because the equipment required by Yanjia is too expensive.
Tian Ji's army can bring effective damage to Yan Jia or Qi martial arts warriors. Qi Jijing is good at various fighting skills and is a relatively balanced arm. Some arrows shot by Qi Jijing can kill Yanjia.
However, it is not just Yan Jia that Qi Jishu faces.
The Shesheng Battalion cooperated with Yanjia to suppress Qi. If Qi Qiu concentrated on shooting the solid Yanjia, it meant that the shooting sound battalion could use the arrow rain to kill the Quartet.
Hua Mulan has been following Chutian for the longest time and knows that she should take the initiative to cooperate at this time. When Yanjia attracted most of Qi's attention, her iron eagle scouts and low-level light cavalrymen began to tentatively attack Tian Ji's army.
Wave after wave of light cavalry harassed Tian Ji's flank, and when they reached the range of cavalry, they retreated after shooting a rain of arrows.
Tian Ji's army began to falter, and ordinary soldiers had realized that it was not good - Tian Ji's army lacked enough cavalry to cover.
Joan of Arc is observing the battlefield. In order to return to France as soon as possible, she cannot fail easily, otherwise she will be made an excuse to prolong the time of returning to France.
When she saw the Fifth School of the Northern Army and the Scouting Corps flanking Tian Ji Corps, she understood that the Servant Corps should take the initiative to cooperate and defeat the enemy for the lord.
She assembled the heavy cavalry from the servant legion and formed a cone formation, with Spanish and French knights in full armor as the vanguard, and the heavy cavalry from India's Mughal Empire, Goryeo Kingdom, and Dongying Kingdom in the rear.
The Servant Legion can make up about 600 heavy cavalry, although the number is not large, but it can tear apart the enemy line!
In the rear are light cavalry and infantry and archers.
"God will guide us to victory!"
Joan of Arc holds a lance and leads the heavy cavalry of the Servant Legion to charge!
The Servant Legion was infected by the commander, and their morale rose, fanatically following the Holy Maiden!
This is the unique charm of the master!
The ground is shaking, knights and heavy cavalry are stepping on flying swallows, and the dust is rolling!
The knight in full armor charged with a long and sharp lance, and Tian Ji's heavy infantry on the flank couldn't help but change color.
The European knights sometimes behave very cowardly, but under the inspiration of the saints, they have become reckless men who are not afraid of death!
This is why France wants to do everything possible to redeem the representative hero of their civilization. The ability of the Saintess alone can improve the combat effectiveness of the French Legion.
Hundreds of heavy cavalry rushed in from the corner of Tian Ji's army. The cavalry and warhorses protected by heavy armor knocked down the heavy infantry in the front row.
Tian Ji's army was shaken, and the light cavalry who were good at riding and shooting came from the rear, and used the arrow rain to destroy the square formation of Tian Ji's army, aggravating the chaos.
In the further rear, troops from various civilizations, such as the Arab Empire's light infantry, Eastern Ying warriors, foot knights, and Tongyu sword players, flocked to attack along the openings torn by the heavy cavalry!
Although the Servant Legion looks diverse, they are after all elite troops from various civilizations. With the bonus of a saint, they are no worse than a high-level legion, which soon led to the partial collapse of Tian Ji's legion.
Any collapse of the Legion in any direction is fatal to the Legion, like a chain reaction.
Hua Mulan's reconnaissance corps also began to formally attack the shaky Tian Ji Corps.
As long as the formation of Tian Ji's army is chaotic, the light cavalry will march straight in, and advance forward!
Yanjia has already collided with Qijutsu and Qingzhou infantry. The Yanjia soldiers in full iron armor killed the Qingzhou infantry in the front row, but the Qingzhou infantry are only cannon fodder used to slow down the impact of Yanjia, and they are really the main force of Qijutsu. The halberd, melee combat with the slowed Yanjia, the halberd collided, and the sound made the scalp numb!
The Qi skill with Tian Ji's bonus exploded with powerful combat power, and could kill many Yanjia soldiers who were equipped with heavy armor.
"It's a pity that Le Yi is blocking Taishi Ci, otherwise the Yanjia with Le Yi's bonus will be stronger."
Chutian lacks the bonus to infantry, only cavalry can exert the greatest power in Chutian's hands.
It was somewhat wasteful that Yan Jia gave command to Chu Tian.
However, Yan Jia's purpose is to attract Qi's attention and gain opportunities for the Servant Legion and the Scout Legion.
Cavalry is the key to eliminating Tian Ji's army!
"The friendly forces have been defeated, and it is pointless to continue fighting. It is better to withdraw."
Tian Ji's army saw that the cavalry of Mulan and Joan of Arc defeated the infantry and archers he had deployed on the periphery, so he led the army to retreat.
Zhao Gongzi's Northern Navy Corps was annihilated by the White Pao Corps and the Yellow Turban Corps, and Tian Ji was helpless.
If they don't retreat in time, Tian Ji's army will also explain this.
The main force of Xuzhou was in hot pursuit and kept attacking Tian Ji's army.
In order to escape, Tian Ji gave up his army of 30,000 people and kept only 20,000 people.
His tactics paid off. Thirty thousand soldiers blocked the pursuit from the Xuzhou Guard Corps and the main army, and Tian Ji took the opportunity to flee.
The battlefield is full of rout soldiers, and 30,000 people are enough to cover everyone's sight, and there is no end in sight.
Young Master Zhao led his own soldiers to escape. The army was defeated like a mountain, and most generals did not have the ability to reverse the situation, and neither did Zhao Gongzi.
If he has the kind of general who can turn defeat into victory in the face of adversity, he will not be forced to use the tactics of clearing the wall and clearing the field.
Zhao Gongzi fled to Juxian County, the government seat of Beihai Kingdom, gathering thousands of defeated soldiers on the way.
Tian Ji's situation was much better than his. He decisively sacrificed most of his troops, leaving 20,000 new troops as the troops for the next battle.
Of the three thousand strikes, only a thousand survived.
"The cavalry of the Xuzhou Corps is so terrifying. If it wasn't for the flank collapse, how could it fail so quickly?"
Tian Ji escaped by chance, but his heart lingered in fear.
Xuzhou Corps attaches great importance to cavalry tactics, often attacking on both sides, and infantry is more used to attract the attention of frontal enemies.
In the face of this tactic, Tian Ji had no good countermeasures.
Tian Ji's army and Zhao Gongzi joined together. Together, there were about 30,000 people.
Compared with the previous huge army, the army of 30,000 people has undoubtedly shrunk by more than half.
Dorgon limped with Zhao Gongzi, he could not fall into Xuzhou Mu's hands, because Zhao Yun always regarded him as a mortal enemy and could not coexist.
"Where is Xue Wanche?"
Young Master Zhao could not find Xue Wanche.
After Xue Wanche led 5,000 cavalry to attack the Yellow Turbans, there was no news.
Tian Ji doesn't care about Xue Wanche's life or death, but considers the next strategy: "Our army's morale is low. If the enemy pursues, it will be difficult for Juxian and Beihai Kingdom to defend."
Dorgon proposed: "The last general and Wu Sangui captured Linzi of Qi State not long ago. The city is solid and bordered by Le'an State and Jinan State. Le'an State and Jinan State are controlled by the plains, and reinforcements can arrive in ten days. Echoing each other, even if Xuzhou has 200,000 troops, it will not be able to capture Linzi.”
"You mean I want to give up Beihai and Donglai County, and only keep Qi?"
Young Master Zhao was struggling.
He has three counties, and Qi has the largest population. However, by giving up Beihai and Donglai counties, the population of his forces has also been reduced by half.
"Relocating the population around Linzi to Linzi will make Linzi with a population of one million, and it may not be impossible to make a comeback. Chu Zimou can't occupy two counties in Qingzhou. How can the resources of the two counties compete with the remaining four counties. ? Unless he transports food and population from Xuzhou all the way, can he capture Qi. The lord sticks to Qi and can join hands with Pingyuan to recover Beihai and Donglai County at any time."
Dorgon strongly persuaded Zhao Gongzi to defend the most populous state of Qi and join forces with Pingyuan to fight for Qingzhou.
Chutian occupied two prefectures in Qingzhou. These two prefectures were destroyed by the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou. It took time to restore productivity. It was very difficult to use the forces of Beihai and Donglai County to crusade Zhao Gongzi and Tian Qi. Equivalently, if Zhao Gongzi and Tian Qi used the forces of four prefectures to attack Beihai, it would be less difficult.
Zhao Gongzi is still struggling in surrendering and holding on: "If Chu Zimou captured Beihai Guoju County and marched towards Qi State Linzi, how should we resist it?"
"I'm asking the lord to dispatch a guard who can protect Linzi for you."
Tian Ji speaks to comfort people at a critical moment.
"Guardian? Can you defend Linzi?"
"Believe me."
While Young Master Zhao and Tian Ji were discussing the next move, Xue Wanche led the cavalry to return with blood dripping from his body.
He threw a head on the ground: "The last general has taken the head of the traitor Guanhai!"
"As long as General Xue is still alive."
Young Master Zhao thought that Xue Wanche was killed or captured, but Xue Wanche actually killed Guan Hai.
If it wasn't for Guan Hai's betrayal, the Qingzhou Legion's persistence tactics would not necessarily fail.
Tian Ji was secretly surprised, Xue Wanche was really a fierce general, leading 5,000 cavalry to charge into the Yellow Turban Army, and he was able to take the bandit's head among the ten thousand army.
"Report, Xuzhou Corps is marching to Juxian!"
Sure enough~IndoMTL.com~ Xuzhou Corps pursued the victory and wanted to capture Beihai Kingdom's administrative county in one breath. Only the capture of Juxian can be regarded as the real occupation of Beihai Kingdom. What's more important is that Juxian has a teleportation formation. As long as this teleportation formation is controlled, the elite divisions of the Xuzhou Legion can be dispatched here from other counties at any time.
While the teleportation array is expensive, there is no need to waste a month or two of marching time.
“We are withdrawing to Linzi.”
Young Master Zhao was unwilling to live up to Xue Wanche's life-and-death battle, and since there was still half of Qi's population, he wanted to take another gamble.
Liu Bei had only one Xinye at the beginning, and he could make a comeback.
Chutian led his troops to take Juxian directly. When his troops arrived at the base of Juxian, the few defenders opened the city gate and let Chutian enter the city.
Chutian took Juxian almost effortlessly and took control of Beihai Kingdom.
He changed the lord of Juxian to himself.
Chu Tian not only did not feel complacent, but felt troublesome for Zhao Gongzi and Tian Ji's initiative to shrink their sphere of influence.
The opponent took the initiative to shrink the defense line, obviously concentrating the population and troops, and it may be more difficult to attack the next, and even waste a lot of time.
Time is very precious to Chutian. The world is so big, and it is impossible to spend several years in Qingzhou.
"Attack Qi!"
After Chutian captured Beihai, he attacked Qi nonstop.
Qi State is a prefecture state in the middle of Qingzhou, and the core area of Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
