Power and Empire Chapter 2523: Anlusu Fire (4)
" God, who will save me! "The Crown Prince of Ikar, Prince Marix, who is hiding behind a wall crenellation, is trembling, and his face is pale like a piece of paper. On the stone crenel, even if he is wearing a platinum heavy armor with the emblem of the royal family of Ikar, he does not feel the slightest sense of security.
"Rumble" fire light mixed with black smoke and rose up, the huge fire light exploded like countless masks, and the rising billowing heat wave engulfed the surrounding soldiers into a whirlpool-like atmosphere. In the waves, a scream rippled to the surroundings. The broken limbs and flesh and blood, mixed with fire, blew up in the sky, and scattered in the air like raindrops on the heads of the coalition soldiers who had been messed up below. At the same time, countless small irons The beads pierced deeply into the bodies of the coalition soldiers with a strong momentum, and the iron pieces flew across the steel tower shield, and the soldiers behind made a heavy grunt, and their flesh and blood flew all the way.
"If you continue to fight like this, our soldiers will die here without the imperial army attacking!"
Harvey Kingdom’s Duke Feitai punched on the armrest of the fort with great chagrin. The situation was worse than he expected. It can even be said that if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe such a scene. The two hundred thousand elite coalition forces, the essence of the six southern countries, were under the advantage of being guarded, and they couldn’t even lift their heads under pressure. It was not the first time that they had fought against the imperial army, except for the first encounter. Familiar and suffered a disastrous defeat, the second time in Lulan, he was introduced into an ambush because of risk. Duke Feitai admitted that the combat effectiveness of the coalition army was not much worse than that of the imperial army. Even when the two armies confronted, he did not find that the imperial army possessed this. A huge advantage
Something must have changed that could lead to this situation! Is this the same imperial army that had confronted him for half a month before? Although his heart is already shocked, Duke Fei Tai can be sure that the "Baidu Qihang Text" Imperial Army outside the city is the one that confronted him for half a month, but he didn't know why, this time it broke out. Such a powerful force,
His face is gray, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes fixed on the attack line of the Imperial Army in the distance, he wants to see the truth, but besides the dense attack line of the Imperial Army wriggling like an ant colony, there are countless arrows. The clusters are like swarms of locusts bursting on the horizon in the distance, continuous coverage shooting, and the density is so dense that the sky loses its color, and he can't see anything,
If you don’t withdraw now, it’s a dead end! I don’t know why, the famous Harvey Kingdom, who has experienced many battles and is known as a mad lion, flashed such thoughts in his heart. He saw with his own eyes the soldier who was hit by the arrow and was immediately crushed with a new corpse. A squadron of soldiers curled up behind the city wall, seemingly safe, but was immediately hit by the imperial Thunder God dragging black smoke and exploded. The body of the person behind the crenel was like a heavy hammer. It hits, the gravel flies around, is rolled up, the gravel blood **** is like a puff of red and black rain thrown into the air, all kinds of broken limbs, layer by layer, like autumn cut The dead man, the bright red blood laying on the walkway of the city wall, trickles like a stream, and the city road seems to be freshly painted in dark red.
Faced with the crazy coverage of hundreds of thousands of imperial crossbowmen, the coalition on Anlusu’s city wall was beaten to pieces. Even though the coalition had 200,000 people, even if it had a solid wall, it was terrifying in the imperial army. Under the coverage, it is almost imaginary. It is eliminated piece by piece at a speed visible to the naked eye. The heavy infantry in the coalition has been nailed to death by arrows, not to mention the infantry equipped with light armor.
"Send the order immediately, abandon the city wall, and the troops will withdraw to the city's defense line!" Duke Fei Tai commanded with a serious look. He thought that relying on Anlusu's defense, even if the Imperial Army rushed forward, it would have to pay a heavy price, and then the situation It was completely beyond imagination, it was a one-sided slaughter! The coalition forces had no room for counterattack in front of the imperial army!
" Woo! "The bleak retreat horn sounded from Anlusu's direction,
"Report to your Majesty that the enemy abandoned part of the city wall and began to shrink toward the city!" Valisian knelt down on one knee behind the fat man with a look of excitement. He reported loudly with excitement, and he looked at His Majesty Falcon. His back gaze is full of undisguised admiration and admiration. Strength, what is strength, he considers himself to be a famous player, and is also considered the top in the rankings in Oubaro, but in front of your majesty, it is simply It’s the scum. In order to capture Anlusu, he has studied it carefully, and has drawn and calculated battles for three consecutive nights. Although his Majesty Falcon said that Anlusu can be captured within three days, in fact, it was only seven to seven. At the cost of 80,000 casualties, how can it be so easy to fight now?
Why didn’t I think that I could use the deep trench dug by the coalition forces to attack the "Xingmeng☆Qingwu☆Flying" bunker? His Majesty Falcon is His Majesty Falcon. He grabbed the weakness of the Allied Forces when he shot, and it made people feel desperate.
The coalition must be vomiting blood now. It took so much effort to dig these dozens of barriers to stop the imperial army from attacking. In a blink of an eye, it became the imperial army attacking. The imperial crossbowman is hiding inside. Even if facing the sling shot from the city wall, there is nothing to worry about. It is really safe. It can no longer be safe. Unless the coalition forces send out infantry to sweep out, they can only stare. The problem is , The souls of the coalition forces were almost collapsed by this powerful assault, and they dared to send infantry out to wipe out
"These allied forces' idiots should taste what is the first in the empire's ability to attack fortifications. I really think that they can be dragged down with an Anlusu!" The corners of Varisian's mouth almost smiled, and his heart It’s even Pembert. The coalition on the opposite side would definitely not think that the commander of the Imperial Army is no longer himself, but the first general of the Obaro continent, the ruler of the Empire, the Emperor Falcon. If the coalition knew about this change, absolutely It will not be completely suppressed as it is now. Being able to fight under the banner of His Majesty Falcon has always been regarded as the highest honor by the empire's soldiers. The emperor personally commanded, and the entire army led by the heavy siege artillery in front. Morale, now even if the previous imperial army’s combat effectiveness was over one hundred, it is now one hundred and fifty super-level performance.
"swish!" The arrow cluster is like a waterfall across the sky,
The tens of millions of arrow clusters brought by the transport fleet with His Majesty Falcon, at this time, it was like no money pouring wildly, where the arrow clusters fell, no matter how many people there were, they were densely packed anyway. The tail feathers of the arrow clusters filled all the places that can be seen. Yes, the emperor’s order was to pour out, because the emperor did not intend to seize the city wall. In just one hour, all ten million arrow clusters were poured out, the emperor’s The purpose is very simple. It is to make the coalition forces on the wall of Anlusu have no place, and make the coalition forces think that as long as they stay on the wall, they will be dead. Only in this way will they abandon the wall and retreat to the city. In fact, This is a fake deception
Such intensive shooting, even the Imperial Army can’t take too long. The shooting intensity of an Imperial Archer of more than 100,000 can be imagined, so before the battle, every crossbowman received a large bundle of arrows. Ten million arrow clusters are divided into each archer’s head, which is an average of one hundred. In general combat, the arrow clusters carried by the Imperial crossbowmen are only thirty to forty. Now it is required to shoot the crossbow arrows that were not available for the entire campaign. They all shot out, even if the imperial army is on the wall, it may not be able to hold it, not to mention the southern coalition, which was already hit hard, the 30,000 light infantry of the Kingdom of Ikar was the first to retreat, the Prince Marix. With an arrow in his leg, he was lifted down all the way wailing, followed by Feize and Aden. . . . . .
The coalition forces on the city wall are evacuating quickly. The experienced Duke of Fehler ordered all objects that can be ignited on the city wall to be ignited. It was a flame. The tower blockhouses on the city wall were ignited by the fire. I hope to use this The method will prevent the imperial army from occupying it for a short time, otherwise, once the imperial army rushes on the wall and is condescending, the southern coalition that is still evacuating will be killed and injured.
Two hundred thousand southern coalition forces are over!
Varisian took a deep breath, and his eyes fell on an arrow tower that collapsed and broke in flames on the wall of Anlusu, flashing with complexity, and following orders issued from the army, more than a dozen times The imperial crossbowmen in the deep ditch began to build a passageway with wooden planks, and sent the cavalry to fly past the silent imperial catapult arrays, shouting the order to advance, and the catapult troops began to move forward. The wooden wheels were crushed on the planks, making a gurgling sound, black smoke billowing over the city of Anlusu, black smoke pillars straight up to the sky, looking like hell, the array of imperial troops outside the city, imperial generals riding on horses Watching the scene coldly, only they know that the withdrawal of the coalition forces really stepped into the ghost gate,
There are three hundred catapults pushed up this time, and they are mainly arranged in three directions of Anlusu City. Once the fire ignites, the only direction with less flame is the front gate of the Imperial Army array. , Hundreds of Thors in the Empire, and nearly one hundred thousand Imperial Crossbowmen, have opened a big net, not to mention the 200,000 burnt and scorched coalition forces, even the 200,000 coalition forces that are strictly waiting for it, there is absolutely no trace. The possibility of breaking through, everything is ready, now all you need to wait is time, setting fire to the city, naturally the best night, when the flame on the wall goes out, the imperial army occupy the wall, and rows of imperial crossbowmen occupy the wall. , They will use rockets to ignite the nearby city. As the slings were hoisted up the city wall, the Empire heavy ballista was also lifted up the city wall. Two hundred thousand imperial troops were condescending, looking down on the city, closing the city, just waiting The moment when the general order was issued
I was too useless during the day, and now I have lost the most dependent city wall. The coalition forces had to call an emergency meeting to adjust the original planned tactics
Duke Feitai suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, and read the battle damage during the day. In this battle, our army killed more than 34,000 and injured 20,000! Although frustrated, the main force is still there, as long as the empire The army dared to attack the city, the victory or defeat is difficult to say, but losing the city wall is at a disadvantage after all, so I suggest to launch a raid at night and take back at least part of the city wall first!"
" Before the battle, nearly 60,000 people were lost, and now are you going to attack the city wall?"
Hearing this battle damage report, the coalition generals who participated in the meeting were in an uproar. The attack during the day really knocked them all out, and now I think of it, I feel my scalp exploded. I swear in my heart that no one has ever seen it. Such intensive long-range attacks should not appear in this world. At this point, the Falcon Empire’s offensive power is too terrifying. Now the coalition forces are required to actively attack the defense of the Empire. All generals resolutely choose to refuse. Even if there is a city wall, now that there is no city wall, it is simply going to die!
"The Imperial Army has always been famous for its powerful long-range attacks. Thor and Crossbows are all long-range big killers. Active attacks are not good for us."
"It’s better to introduce the Imperial Army into our key urban area for melee combat. I don’t believe that our soldiers are fleshy. The Imperial Army soldiers are not fleshy. They are all fleshy. Cut them up. Who's afraid of who!" In the silence, a figure stood up fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, it was Duke Ma Li, the main commander of Aden sitting on the left. He stood up and patted his hands heavily on the table, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes. , Like a wounded beast,
Seeing him stand up, the other generals stopped talking, but their eyes were more gloating. This time the Aden army was killed and injured. Half of the 60,000 camel cavalry died in Lulan, and the rest Half of them were nested in Anlusu, and their logistics was cut off. They had to kill all camels for food. Camel cavalry were used as infantry. Not to mention, camel cavalry wearing only half-length cavalry armor. The shields in their hands were small bucklers used by cavalry. Encountered dense clusters of arrows struck by heavy rain, there was a large area of casualties immediately, the remnants of more than 20,000 people, and the loss of more than 10,000 people at once, it can be regarded as miserable and can't be miserable. Now the Duke of Horsepower wants to do it most. Yes, it's just a good fight with the imperial army, otherwise, even if you have a chance to go back alive, it will be the laughing stock of the entire Aden Kingdom!
" I also think that the Imperial Army can take down the city wall because we are standing there unobstructed, but it is different in the city. Most of them are buildings, and there are a large number of defensive arrow towers. The Imperial Army If you want to conquer, there is only one fight!" General Rocotivarisi of the Fei Zejun touched his chubby chin. It was purely a subconscious habit, but this action. It will make him look peaceful in the past,
" His Excellency Rocotti Varisi’s words really don’t agree! Your Excellency obviously wants to wait until the Imperial Army breaks through the defenses and choose to surrender!" A general of the Wish Tree Order Army stood up angrily and said "The entire coalition knows that Fei Zejun’s troops are not very large this time. There are only a few large countries in the south, but only 40,000 people were dispatched. It was also divided into two parts, one in the base camp and the other here, which is itself. Question!"
" Grand Knight of Anluo, you can’t talk nonsense! "General Rocotti Varisi’s nose incited a grunt." I, Fazer, is the closest to the Falcon Empire, directly under its pressure, and early to the coalition base camp. There is an agreement that as long as the southern coalition defeats the imperial army in Istanbul, the 200,000 main force of the Fezer Kingdom will immediately advance north, cross the Zhibro seaway, and enter the southern part of the empire. IndoMTL.com~ forms with the main force of the coalition. The situation of things being attacked by things is also the reason why I Fei Ze, really can't send too many troops to participate in this war!"
" Hehe, you can say that. Don’t you feel embarrassed about this? For the benefit of the south, only the great knight commander of our sect nation has lost two people, and there is one high priest, which is tragic, and What did Fazer lose?" Anrio’s mouth sneered. He is the great knight of the Templar nation, and the deputy to the commander of the Templar Knight Commander Maffei. The great knight Commander Maffei is in the base camp of the Allied Forces. The latest news is that Under the attack of the cavalry of the Imperial East Court, he was killed in battle. He is now the highest person in charge of the Templar Army.
For Fazer General Rocotivasili’s words, he is obviously a disdainful expression
Faze is so close to the Congo and Fei Empire, and the two countries have been fighting for many years. It can be said that the country in the southern countries has the best knowledge of the strength of Congo and Fei. The Congo and Fei empire was easily destroyed by the Falcon Empire, Feize Obviously, I understand the horror of the Falcon Empire better than other countries,
Forty thousand people seem to be a lot, but compared to the coalition’s total force of nearly one million, it’s just a perfunctory.
If the coalition forces win in Istanbul, Fazer can cross the strait and enter Congo and Africa. Without any effort, he can easily grab the vast land of the Congolese empire. If the coalition forces are defeated in Istanbul, the loss of 40,000 people will be a mere loss. , For the southern power of Fei Ze, it is really not a loss,
In this war, Fei Zejun’s losses were negligible, and he suffered tens of thousands of war damages with other countries. Fei Zejun’s total losses were four to five thousand people [to be continued] []
