Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 698: Western Lord and Attila (2 in 1)
On the Danube River, the coalition of Western lords deployed along the Danube River. This time, thirteen lords gathered their forces to meet Attila's army.
The French lord Louis and the Castile queen Isabella, two new lords joined the Western lords coalition. This time almost all the lords in Europe participated in the decisive battle against the Attila army, and the number of troops invested was abnormal. amazing.
Some players from the Western Continent even risked their lives to witness this epic battle in the Western Continent in person.
It is the nature of every civilization to watch the fun.
The great lords who participated in the war were all king-level figures, equivalent to the princes of the various states of the Han Empire, and they were also obstacles to Attila's unification of the Western Continent.
If this group of Western king-level characters can be defeated, then almost no one can stop Attila and this group of people from carving up the Western continent and establishing more than a dozen kingdoms headed by Attila.
On the contrary, if Attila is defeated, then the threat of the Huns to the Western Continent will be basically lifted, and Attila will be wiped out by the Western lords sooner or later.
"That is the queen of our Castile kingdom, Her Majesty Isabella, her Spanish phalanx is a high-level infantry, invincible in the Iberian Peninsula."
"I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Castile also sent a legion to deal with Attila. I thought she would stand by the sidelines. It seems that Attila's army in Vienna has caused panic in all the kingdoms, so they decided to join forces Repress Attila."
"Attila has angered the lord of the West this time."
These western players are on the opposite bank of the Danube and can witness a huge army of troops deploying along the banks of the Danube.
It is clear that the army of the Western lords wants to meet Attila here.
Players from the Western Continent saw the elite legions that these kings might not be willing to use at ordinary times.
The legions participating in this war came from different civilizations and were the elite divisions of their respective civilizations.
When the life and death of the Western Continent are related, the kings of various kingdoms are under pressure and still use the elite of their respective civilizations.
"You people get out of here, otherwise, you will be affected by the war and killed by the murderous Attila."
A team of Templars appears, driving away players from the Western Continent who are trying to watch the battle.
In the eyes of these Templars, it was a holy war against a diabolical figure from the East, Attila. Anyone who has nothing to do with the war should leave this place.
But in reality, Attila was just a little stature, and Westerners tended to demonize these conquerors.
"This is the Knights Templar of France, one of the three great Knights, and they have a firm belief."
A spectator in France could easily identify the Templar logo, which was too obvious.
"I didn't expect that two of the three knights, the Teutonic Knights and the Knights Templar, would be dispatched in this battle. I don't know if the Knights Hospitaller will arrive on the battlefield."
"What's the difference between the three Orders?"
"It is said that the Teutonic Knights are the largest in scale, the Knights Templar are the most steadfast in their faith, and the Knights Hospitallers have healing skills to save lives and heal the wounded. Each Knights also has its own marks and abilities. With two knights dispatched, Attila may be in trouble in this battle."
"Attila has been harassing our Western Continent for over a year, and it's time to defeat her."
Players in the Western Continent also held a grudge against Attila, who brought millions of casualties to the Western Continent.
"These aliens, what are they doing?"
The three giants of Rome frowned slightly when they found the Western mainland players watching the game.
These players may be killed in the melee of the cavalry on both sides, and they have not yet realized the cruelty of this battle.
In the last war, the combined forces of the Western lords lost 100,000 people. In this war, the kings of the various kingdoms believed that there would be at least 200,000 casualties.
This is also the painful price that must be paid in order to defeat Attila.
Even with the lord of France and the queen of Spain joining the war, the situation is still not optimistic, and either victory or defeat is possible.
Hohenzollern served as the commander of the coalition of Western lords, deploying a large army along the Danube, especially to strengthen the defense of the rear, to avoid the situation that was surrounded by Subutai and Timur last time.
As long as they are not surrounded by the eastern cavalry, then for the western lord army with two major knight orders, they will not necessarily be inferior to any of the cavalry of Temujina and Tira.
Among the western lords' coalition, there are two well-equipped knight troops, mainly from Germany and France, two countries rich in knights.
Spain's big phalanx can barely handle Gustav's firearms corps, while Rome has excellent heavy infantry, and from. Crossbowmen of the city-state of Genoa.
If the Western lord coalition has a disadvantage, it may be the lack of a large light cavalry force like Attila. Western lords could not have such a large-scale light cavalry, because Attila and Temujin light cavalry came from the Great Plains of Eastern Europe, or the Mobei Plateau and other places. Other terrains in the western continent do not have such vast plains, sacrifice farming, and instead cultivate a huge light cavalry force.
"Constantine, is that your Genoese Crossbow Legion?"
Caesar and Pompey have been keeping an eye on Constantine's legions.
Genoa is also a part of the Roman region, where high-quality crossbows are abundant, and they come to Linz through the teleportation array.
This legion is armed with expensive steel crossbows that can easily pierce the armor of noble knights at close range. Although it is a shameful thing to shoot through a knight's armor with a crossbow, it is very practical. No one would reject a practical battlefield weapon.
"Caesar, it was you who made an agreement with me that I would occupy Genoa, you would occupy Venice, and Pompey would occupy Sicily. I recruited crossbowmen in Genoa, which should have not violated our original agreement. The hoplites you recruited in Venice and Mediterranean fleet, I have not interfered with you either."
"Constantine, I didn't mean that."
Although Caesar was wary of Constantine, on the surface the three were allies of Rome and tried to avoid infighting.
In addition to the Genoese Crossbow Legion, Constantine also brought the Carthaginian Legion.
This legion came from North Africa, and the troops came from a powerful city-state civilization in Tunisia. The Carthaginian legions had a mixed force of elephants, cavalry, and infantry that could rival the Roman legions.
Constantine's vision was a step further than Caesar and Pompey. He regarded North Africa as his colony and focused his expansion on North Africa, so he obtained a large number of servants.
"Perhaps we should also expand into North Africa and not elsewhere."
Caesar was very jealous of Constantine's discovery of a large population and army of servants from his conquests in North Africa, because Constantine benefited so much from it that he was almost as powerful as Caesar and Pompega. Sit together on an equal footing.
"Although we in France have lost the core hero of Joan of Arc, we still have the Knights Templar, the brave feudal knights, the civic army, and the peasant army. This time, to deal with Attila, we must revive Our French prestige."
The French lord Louis participated in this huge war. He led a hundred thousand French legions from the teleportation array in Bohemia and then converged on Linz to participate in the battle in time.
Of the 100,000 French legions, the number of knights was as high as 5,000. Rows of knights in white robes and red crosses marched on horses, with shields, spears, bows and arrows hanging from their saddles. Wearing eccentric helmets and showing only one pair of eyes, they took part in this great battle with enthusiasm.
This group of knights had an amazing faith, some of them were the Templars, and some were the feudal knights of France, that is, noble knights.
"I don't know if the Teutonic Knights are stronger or the Knights Templar are better."
Hohenzollern saw the Knights Templar, and he had not tried the Teutonic against the Knights Templar, so he could not tell the winner.
"These civilizations are more powerful than I imagined. If I want to conquer them, I can't be their opponent alone. Together, they are stronger than anyone else."
Alexander witnessed the preparations for this huge war with his own eyes, and the characteristic arms of each civilization emerged one after another.
He faintly noticed that, in fact, it was quite difficult to deal with one of the great civilizations with the ability of the Macedonian Kingdom. If the two great civilizations joined forces, the Macedonian Kingdom might be wiped out.
The western continent still maintains a delicate balance - the great civilizations dare not annex each other, because if one of the great civilizations rises, the other civilizations may join forces to suppress them to avoid the rising power Civilization annexed.
"King, if you want to conquer these civilizations, you may need to provoke their battles and let them consume each other before they can unify the Western Continent. This time, thanks to the king's credit for wounding Attila, if you can capture the Huns Empire Your prestige will be unprecedented. In addition to provoking conflicts among various European civilizations, perhaps you may become the king of all Europe.”
"Eumenes, you are right."
Alexander listened to Eumenes's suggestion and probably had some ideas in his heart. However, Attila is the hurdle they have to overcome for now.
Attila's threat to the Western Continent is too great, and it must be eliminated first and then quickly.
Attila's army is only a hundred miles away from Linz!
Mongolian general Subutai takes the lead!
"It's not too fast, it's not too fast!"
The Western lords were startled.
It was Subutai that caused the last war, and the various lords of the West were passive.
"Let us, the Knights Templar, thwart Subutai's advance."
Louis from Paris, France, wanted to see the front of the Mongolian cavalry.
"A class suitable for decisive battles like the Knights Templar should not be wasted here."
The Knights of the Swords of Hohenzollern suffered heavy losses when they were attacked by Temujin's cavalry. In order to prevent the French Templars from repeating the same mistakes before the decisive battle, he blocked the impulse of the French lords.
For Louis, points may be gained, but in the eyes of other Western lords, especially those who have already fought against the Mongol cavalry, the French iron cans go to war against the mobile vanguard of the Mongol cavalry, Possibly taking the initiative to send the head.
"Are the Mongolian cavalry really that powerful? Worse than the last national war?"
Louis is not a mediocre person either. He can unify France, and soon realizes that he seems to have underestimated the ability of Subutai. In the last national war, the French were defeated by Temujin's cavalry.
Subutai's vanguard cavalry is fast approaching the coalition of hundreds of thousands of Western lords!
Soon, Mongolian cavalry and Western knights can already see each other's horses!
Historically, the Mongol cavalry once defeated the Eastern European coalition in the Kingdom of Hungary.
This time, they faced the heavy knights in Central and Western Europe. The impact of knights is no less than that of any heavy cavalry, including elite full-body plate knights.
"Several Your Majesty, in front of you is the army of the resisters. Their strength is at least several hundred thousand."
Attila and Temujin commanded the army and approached Linz. The Western lords had already deployed a large number of troops in the Danube area.
"Sure enough, these kings cannot be given enough time to assemble their legions, otherwise they will continue to drain our forces. They must be completely destroyed!"
Attila agrees with the other king-level leaders that all Western lords must be completely destroyed and their lands taken.
As the armies of both sides lined up along the Danube, Temujin had an uneasy premonition that this war was no better than the previous one.
Not only did the Western kings come prepared this time, but the two knights joined forces, and they were enough to compete head-on with the cavalry of Temujin and Attila.
"Temujin, are you afraid?"
Attila could sense that Temujin seemed hesitant, so he took the initiative to ask.
"No, I'm not afraid, I'm just worried about defeat, and I can't defeat it." Temujin did not retreat in the face of Attila's questioning, "The lord of the east, Chutian, and those who recently established the Tsarist Empire. Tsar Catherine, it is very likely that your capital will be attacked. Don't you worry that your capital will be breached? Once your capital is breached, your control over your territory will collapse overnight."
"I have left the generals to assist Brida to defend the capital, and they will teach the enemy who attacked the capital a lesson. If necessary, Temujin, you use the teleportation array to go to my royal city, and your old adversary, once again at war."
Attila knew that Temujin had been defeated many times by Chutian, and deliberately provoked a fight between Temujin and Chutian, and asked Temujin to deal with his old rival.
"No."
Temujin has been reluctant to confront Chutian recently, probably because of the psychological shadow of his repeated defeats.
No matter who has lost to the same opponent repeatedly, he is no longer willing to fight with him.
So did Genghis Khan Temujin.
Attila did not force Temujin, he also needed Temujin to deal with the frontal army of the western lords: "Although you are assured of attacking the army of the western lords, they want to use cavalry to break through the king's city, it will take time. And this time , we have stepped on the corpses of Western lords."
Temujin couldn't help but glance at Attila. Attila obviously had confidence in defending the capital of the Huns, so he had no fear.
Think about it carefully, before Attila gained Temujin and Gustav as allies, he was not defeated by Alexander's offensive, and he also conquered Poland and Lithuania in the war, killing the original Bohemia King, it is impossible not to capture some heroes of civilization for his own use.
Attila is very cunning. Taking advantage of the contradictions between various civilizations, coercion and inducement, to win allies for herself, it should not leave a few trustworthy generals to guard her home.
It is not easy to try to annex Attila's clan. If you are not careful, Attila will annex his own clan instead.
As Temujin covets Attila's power, and Attila covets Temujin's talent, two legends join forces in a peculiar way.
"That is the army of Attila, the whip of God? Even the king of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania were defeated by Attila, and the king of Bohemia was killed by him. In the recent war, even Alexander was injured in the melee. ..."
Isabella, Queen of Castile, with a saber hanging from her waist, stood at a high place, and the other great lords of the west, looking at the opposite Huns camp, the flags were everywhere, and the end could not be seen at a glance.
There are so many troops on the battlefield that it is impossible to deploy such a huge force in one battlefield.
The two sides add up to millions of troops, divided by broken terrain, rivers, woods, swamps, hills, and the warring sides are facing extremely complex terrain.
The complexity of the terrain makes even the most wise commander a headache.
A battlefield can accommodate up to three all-army halos, and broken terrain, divided battlefields, and each battlefield must be superimposed with the highest bonus, so the number of generals with all-army halo is very high.
The Spanish phalanx of the Queen of Castile is on the right flank, with woods and wooden fences covering the arquebusiers, and there are a few Spanish arquebusiers in the Spanish phalanx.
According to the advanced level, the Swedish phalanx of King Gustav of Sweden is actually superior to the Spanish phalanx of Queen Castile, because the Swedish phalanx is in Spain and the Netherlands. Based on the results of improvement.
However, in the world of "Lord" where cold weapons and arms are popular, the Swedish phalanx may not necessarily be better than the Spanish phalanx.
The proportion of spearmen in the Spanish phalanx is higher than that of arquebusiers, and it focuses on the defense of arquebusiers. It has a greater depth and is not easily penetrated by cavalry and infantry.
In the Swedish phalanx, the proportion of arquebusiers is higher than that of pikemen, focusing on the output and maneuverability of arquebusiers, and the depth is shallow. When attacked by cavalry, if the number of arquebusiers is less than the number of arquebusiers, they cannot resist the impact of cavalry. , easily overwhelmed.
It can be said that in "Lord", the cavalry is still the king of the field. Therefore, the concept of the Spanish phalanx is not necessarily backward, and it has its own advantages and disadvantages with the Swedish phalanx.
The Queen of Castile's opponent is Gustav.
"The Knights Templar will help you defeat Gustav, and the knights are not far behind."
In order to win over Queen Isabella of Castile, Louis, the lord of France, voluntarily sent the Knights Templar to cooperate with the Spanish phalanx.
As the great lords of Western Europe, their goal is to target the Nordic lion Gustav.
"Hopefully the Knights Templar will not disappoint me."
Isabella's force does not seem to be low. In fact, the expansion ambitions of the queens of some European kingdoms are not weaker than the kings.
"The Knights Templar will not let you down. King Visigoth was suppressed by us. I believe you have seen the strength of the Knights Templar."
"The Knights Templar are indeed very powerful, but our Spanish Knights of Santiago are not inferior."
Isabella's eyes fell on her army. In addition to the Spanish phalanx, her army also had a knight order and javelin cavalry.
Just as France has the Knights Templar and Germany has the Teutonic Knights, Spain also has the Knights of Santiago, but the reputation of the Knights of Santiago is far less than the three major Knights.
The knights of this knight order wear white cloaks, marked by a red sword-shaped cross, and the red sword-shaped handle and gauntlet are lily-shaped at the end.
However, the thirteen knight leaders of the Knights of Santiago wore a black cape and a four-cornered hat.
The Thirteen Knights no longer belong to the high-level arms, but the ranks of military commanders, but the force is strong and weak.
The Knights of Santiago cannot compete with the three major European Knights, but they are still the characteristic arms of Spanish civilization and the sword used by Isabella to defeat the enemy.
"The Macedonian army is good at fighting in the mountains. On the mountain on the left flank, it pinches the opponent's flank. We Germany and the Roman infantry and cavalry cooperated to defeat Attila head-on. Attila was injured in the last melee, I don't know. Has he recovered. If he doesn't, then this is a chance to kill him, otherwise, we'll be in a tough fight. But in any case, the victory belongs to us."
The seven great emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, some of them are players, some are NPCs, at this time, have become the mainstay of the Western Continent.
There were dozens of German princes who came to fight, and their troops were strong.
"The Archduke of Austria suffered heavy losses after this battle. The new Holy Roman Emperor may be Hohenzollern."
Among the seven Electors, six of them were intimidated by Hohenzollern's prestige and discovered that Hohenzollern had become the leader of the German region before he knew it.
The only competitor who competed with Hohenzollern for the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand of Austria, suffered heavy losses in this war, and his strength was far less than that of Hohenzollern.
Had Hohenzollern personally commanded this battle and won, he would surely have taken the prestige gained from the victory ~IndoMTL.com~ to the position of Holy Roman Emperor.
The status of the Holy Roman Empire is already at the imperial level, one level higher than that of the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Spain.
Hohenzollern was relatively calm. The plan was made by people, and the success was in the sky. This time, the Western lord coalition had gathered enough troops and was no longer so passive.
The last defeat must be regained this time.
"Attila, let's fight again, I will kill you."
Alexander, hated Attila, his old enemy.
If Attila fought with his Macedonian army head on, it would be fine, but Attila has been keeping him in check, and he has also encouraged the Ottoman Empire to attack the Macedonian Kingdom and resolve the internal conflicts of the Ottoman Empire.
"The other two legions are still unable to catch up with this battle in time..."
Constantine brought in the Genoese Crossbow Legion, the Carthaginian Legion, and four Roman legions, for a total of six legions.
The commander of the Carthaginian legion was Mirka Barca, a famous Carthaginian general, and also the father of the famous Carthaginian commander Hannibal.
The Genoese Legion is commanded by Andrea Doria, an admiral of the Genoese Civilization.
Although the ability of admirals on land will be greatly reduced, some admirals are also excellent commanders of the bow and crossbow system.
A Roman legion had about 5,000 to 6,000 people, while the Genoese and Carthaginian legions were much larger.
Constantine's lineup made Caesar and Pompey jealous.
If the Legion is considered the wealth of the various lords, then Constantine currently has more wealth than Caesar and Pompey.
