Online Games Barbarism and Civilization

The terrain where Hancheng is located belongs to the alluvial plain of the Yellow River, with the majestic Huanglong Mountain to the west, and a narrow and long plain to the north and south, which is a typical terrain with mountains on one side and plains on three sides.

After the cavalry regiment of the demon coalition was blocked from returning, the only way they could escape was to the north.

When the demon army occupied the Hancheng area, they only built a fortress defense position on the east side specially used to target the Condor Army. In the north and south directions, they only built simple trench defenses.

After Ning Yuan captured the Hancheng area, in order to implement the siege and aid tactics, he built a fortress group on the south side of Hancheng that was the same as the east side, and kept the original state on the north side.

In order to facilitate passage, Ning Yuan just ordered people to fill in a few passages in the north. As for the trench dug by the demon army, it is still the same as before.

When Sun Qi led the cavalry regiment all the way to the north, he was immediately blocked by the wide and steep trench in front of him.

After seeing that the only passages that could pass were full of ape-man warriors holding spears and giant shields, Sun Qi suddenly felt a little dark in front of his eyes, and almost fell off the horse directly.

After taking a deep breath and stabilizing his figure, Sun Qi glanced at the fortresses to the east and the Condor Army base camp to the south, then shook his head helplessly.

Whether it was the difficult barbarian army or the ape-man army ambushing in the fortress group, none of them caught up at this moment.

After Sun Qi led the cavalry regiment and fled northward, the two armies all returned to their previous posts, leaving no chance for Sun Qi's cavalry regiment.

"Hey."

After looking up at the sky again, Sun Qi sighed helplessly, and then resolutely led the cavalry regiment towards Huanglong Mountain in the west.

Although the Condor Eagle Army stationed in the Hancheng area had no good way to take the highly maneuverable cavalry corps, after Sun Qi led the human cavalry through the east fortress group, their fate was already doomed.

After Yuan Shiba led the ape-man warriors to block Sun Qi's retreat with the tripping rope, they could only retreat south or north.

Going south, they will pass by the base camp of the Condor Army.

That passage is too close to the base camp of the Condor Army. If the Condor Army also deployed heavy infantry in the south, then they are likely to be dumped by the Condor Army.

Sun Qi didn't dare to risk the lives of tens of thousands of cavalry, so he could only choose to go north.

And after the passage to the north was also blocked by the Condor Army, they were immediately trapped in the encirclement circle arranged by the Condor Army.

Although the encirclement is huge, without enough troops, the Condor Army can't really encircle them.

But after the several Condor troops all stood firm, Sun Qi and the others had actually lost completely.

Because it was cold winter, and the temperature would drop sharply at night, the cavalry regiment led by Sun Qi only carried some dry food and fresh water with them, and had no other supplies.

In addition, all members of this cavalry are human knights, they are not good at night fighting, but there are a large number of orc warriors in the Condor Army.

If they continue to stay in the encirclement, they are likely to die from the cold weather or the sneak attack of orc warriors.

So after finding that there was no opportunity to take advantage of, Sun Qi had no choice but to lead the remaining cavalry into the mountain.

Although the environment in the mountain is even worse, many people may not be able to get out after entering, but at least there is still a glimmer of life in it. They can find wood that can keep warm in the mountain, so as to avoid the destruction of the entire army.

In the cold north, the days in winter are very short, as long as the afternoon arrives, it is not far from darkness.

As a native of the north, Sun Qi knew very well the horrors after dark, that's why he decided to enter the mountain after realizing that his side had fallen into the encirclement of the Condor Army.

Because if they couldn't find enough dry firewood and a hiding place to avoid the cold wind before dark, few of them would survive to see the sun the next day.

 …

When the Terran cavalry led by Sun Qi was cornered by the ambush set by the Condor Army, the Dwarf Sheep Knights led by Sosa Warhammer successfully intercepted the Demon Legion led by Diop at the outskirts of the eastern fortress group.

Facing the dwarf blue sheep knight army that suddenly appeared in front of the army, Diop didn't dare to be careless, and immediately ordered the army to stop advancing, and then set up a defensive formation on the spot.

Seeing that the demon army's defensive formation was impenetrable, Sosa Warhammer didn't dare to attack rashly. He just ordered the dwarf blue sheep knights to wander around the periphery of the enemy's defense line, waiting for the enemy to mess up.

However, Diop ruled the army strictly, no matter how provocative the dwarf knights were, the demon warriors remained unmoved.

So after neither the enemy nor the enemy could find any flaws in the opponent, the two armies confronted each other like this.

When the Terran cavalry regiment led by Sun Qi did not move for a long time, Diop guessed that something might have happened to Sun Qi.

After looking at the sky and weighing the gains and losses, Diop immediately sent a fast horse to break through and ask for emergency help from the rear.

When Diop sent a messenger to the base camp of the demon coalition army, the battle on the southern front was coming to an end.

After learning that Sun Qi's cavalry regiment had lost their voice, and that Diop's demon legion was entangled by the dwarf blue sheep knights of the Condor Army, Daniels immediately sent a demon legion to meet Diop.

Facing two demon armies that would join together in success, and seeing the enemy's orderly retreat formation, Sosa Warhammer knew that he was destined to return empty-handed today.

Although he was very unwilling to let the enemy go like this, but the strategic policy of the Condor Army in winter has become a defensive counterattack.

Without any support, the dwarf blue sheep cavalry regiment under him could not eat such a large number of enemies.

Moreover, if he attacked rashly, his cavalry regiment would suffer heavy losses, so he could only helplessly watch the enemy go away.

As the sky gradually darkened, soldiers from both sides, who had fought fiercely for a day, returned to the warm base camp.

In this battle, more than 200,000 players from the two Tenglong legions lost a total of 130,000 casualties, which can be described as heavy casualties. However, compared with the casualties of the demon coalition army, the number of casualties of the Condor Army is still acceptable.

In this battle, only more than 80,000 people escaped from the 500,000 player army of the demon coalition. The demon leader Okafor was not only killed on the spot, but more than half of the demon army he led was killed.

Coupled with the 100,000 cavalry who have not been heard from, the number of demon coalition troops has shrunk by more than half.

Now Daniels has only 400,000 demon infantry and 80,000 player remnants left under his command. The gap in military strength between the enemy and us has basically been smoothed out.

Now it is no longer a question of whether the demon coalition forces can successfully regain Hancheng, but a question of whether they can withdraw safely.

If Hancheng's Condor Army refused to let them go easily, after losing their only cavalry regiment, it's hard to say how much their remaining 500,000 infantry could withdraw.

Because the dwarf blue sheep cavalry regiment of the Condor Army can go around their flanks or front to harass them at any time, but they have no cavalry regiment that can compete with them.

 …

"How long will it take to send reinforcements from the rear?"

After all the troops withdrew to the base camp, Daniels immediately held an emergency military meeting overnight.

As the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, Daniels knew all about these military matters, but at this moment, he still asked them directly at the meeting.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the weather is cold now, and there have been several heavy snowfalls just a while ago, making it very inconvenient to travel by land, so it is impossible for the reinforcements to arrive here within a month or two.

And in a few months, the temperature will slowly rise, so Wei Chen thinks that we should retreat to Huiyang first, and then send a large army to recover Hancheng after spring comes. "

After hearing Daniels' overtones, Diop immediately understood and proposed to withdraw the troops.

"Your Majesty, what General Diop said is very true. The demon warriors of our family are very unsuited to this cold weather. In the cold winter, we can't show our true strength at all. Therefore, I think we should wait for the temperature to rise before going back to fight." Fight the enemy."

 …

Many of today's demon commanders used to be Daniels' old subordinates. They knew how powerful Daniels was, so after Daniels gave a hint, they all scrambled to suggest that they should withdraw first.

Glancing at those empathetic subordinates, Daniels pretended to ponder for a while, then sighed and said, "Hey, if that's the case, let's follow the advice of my lovers. Tomorrow morning, the army will immediately pull out the camp and withdraw to the Heyang.

Diop, you lead an army of 100,000 to be in charge of the rear, and you must ensure the safety of the rear of the army. "

"Yes, Your Majesty, Diop will live up to His Majesty's trust and vow to protect the safe retreat of the army."

Hearing that Daniels sent him to the rear, Diop immediately stood up and issued a military order.

 …

The next day, before dawn, the demon coalition army began to pull out their camp, and then the army began to retreat in the direction of Heyang.

When Ning Yuan learned that the demon coalition forces had begun to retreat, he immediately asked, "How many people did the enemy send to the rear?"

"Your Majesty, there are about 100,000 people, all of whom are demon fighters.

Now General Sosa is waiting for your Majesty's order, please give your Majesty instructions on whether to pursue or not. "

"It's so cold, what's there to chase, you go tell Sosa, let him endure a few more months in the barracks for me.

Well, inform the other troops, stick to your own defense zone, and recharge your batteries. "

When Ning Yuan heard that Sosa wanted to chase the enemy, he immediately pursed his mouth, and then directly cut off the opponent's thoughts.

It's freezing cold, and the people who go out to the hut are freezing enough, so if they take the initiative to fight out, wouldn't that make the soldiers suffer?

Now that the winter strategic goal of the Condor Army has been achieved, killing tens of thousands of demon warriors will not affect the overall situation.

So now that the enemy has retreated on its own initiative, Ning Yuan doesn't want to make any more troubles. He just wants to spend this winter quietly.

 …

"What? The demon coalition retreated?"

After hearing the news of the retreat of the demon coalition forces, the Northern Expedition Alliance immediately exploded.

"Daniels is a waste, doesn't he know that the Condor Army has a logistical problem right now?

If the Condor Eagle Army in Hancheng cannot be driven back to the east of the Yellow River, what will he use to resist the cavalry of the Condor Eagle Army when the temperature rises?

This idiot, does he really think his army of demons is invincible? "

After learning about the anticlimax of the demon coalition forces, Dongfang Ming was immediately furious and couldn't help cursing.

"I asked several players who participated in that battle, and Daniels cannot be blamed for this incident.

The demon fighters under Daniels were already brave enough. In order to break through the defense of the Condor Army, they even used suicide-style sharp-pointed collision tactics.

But the barbarians under Ning Yuan were so powerful that the demon army not only suffered heavy losses, but even a demon leader died on the spot.

The Condor Army seems to have developed an iron box that can fire many crossbow arrows at once, and those iron boxes directly shattered the most ferocious attack of the Demon Alliance Army.

The devil coalition army dispatched this time was still too hasty, and they didn't even bring the trebuchets, so it was reasonable that they couldn't break through the positions carefully arranged by the Condor Army. "

Seeing Dongfang Ming getting angry, Ye Ziqing shook his head helplessly, then calmly analyzed.

"Actually, it was a very correct choice for the demon army to retreat to Heyang.

After losing half of their army, they were no longer capable of defeating the advantageous Hancheng Condor Army.

To continue the offensive, Daniels must dispatch reinforcements from the rear to the front.

Now Shaanxi is full of ice and snow everywhere, and transportation is very difficult, so instead of adding troops to the front line now, it is better to wait until the spring is warm and the flowers bloom. "

Murong Changfeng also understood the actions of the demon coalition forces very well.

"I also understand these principles, but the question now is when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, what will the demons use to resist the massive cavalry of the Condor Empire?

It's not that you don't know the terrain in Guanzhong, it is simply a paradise for cavalry.

What if Ning Yuan used the method he used to deal with the Eagle Hoof Empire to deal with Daniels? "

Seeing that several old friends were speaking for the Demon Race, Dongfang Ming didn't want to argue with them, and directly raised the core issue.

"Now the Condor Army is unable to attack the Guanzhong area on a large scale due to logistical problems and cold weather.

If it comes to spring, those cavalry regiments under him will indeed be a big trouble.

Especially the centaur army, not only has a strong combat effectiveness, but also has a very strong battery life.

There is also the dwarf blue sheep army, which can ignore many terrains, and it is also very troublesome.

If these cavalry are infiltrated to the rear of the demon army, then the demon clan is likely to be the next eagle hoof empire. "

After listening to Dongfang Ming's question, Ma Tianming couldn't help talking to himself, but he spoke very loudly so everyone could hear him clearly.

After hearing Ma Tianming's soliloquies, all the senior leaders of the Northern Expedition Alliance fell into deep thought.

Seeing that everyone was frowning, Ye Ziqing hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to speak: "Everyone, after the Condor Eagle Army in Hancheng cannot be driven back to the east of the Yellow River, the future of the demon clan is very uncertain .

Facing the Condor Empire, which has an absolute advantage in cavalry, it is difficult for us to come up with any countermeasures.

So I think we shouldn't hang on a tree, it's time to find a stronger opponent for Ning Yuan. "
