Mythical Lords of the Three Kingdoms: Invincible from the Bandit

Chapter 206 Lost four cities in a row!The eve of the outbreak of war!
Gongsun Zan's army did not play cards according to the routine, which not only severely damaged the players' coalition forces, but also disrupted the deployment of the players' coalition forces.

Even Qin Yuan was greatly affected.

"What a big trouble!"

Looking at the information reported from the front line, Qin Yuan couldn't help feeling a headache.

I thought it would allow the player's coalition to resist Gongsun Zan's army and buy him some time.

However, the cavalry led by Gongsun Zan directly crossed the player's line of defense and sneaked into Pingyun County without a sound.

And relying on the fast moving speed, they hid their whereabouts, so it was impossible to know where this army was.

Even if the spies sent out found the enemy, when they returned to report, it was estimated that the cavalry had galloped hundreds of miles away.

"Information from the player."

"A total of three armies were attacked last night, and they were all on the way to the frontline city!"

"The three waves of attacks all ended in disastrous defeat for the players, with the loss of more than [-] combatants, among which [-] advanced elite units have been transferred!"

Qin Yuan murmured.

He glanced at the number of vacancies on the Tiger Talisman, and he was able to know how many transfer units were lost.

The cavalry in these three raids were all Youzhou Tuqi, with a number of about 18.

The battle was led by Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan and others.

However, the most important person, Gongsun Zan himself, did not reveal his whereabouts.

"My lord, the enemy dared to bypass the city and enter the area of ​​Pingyun County!"

"As long as we block all the passages, we will be able to surround them!"

"At that time, the enemy will have nowhere to go in the face of being surrounded by four sides and logistical support!"

Chai Wanqiang said.

It has to be said that Gongsun Zan's ingenious strategy has achieved astonishing results and caught the players' coalition forces by surprise.

But there are also many disadvantages, that is, once the back road is cut off, they will undoubtedly die.

In ancient wars, the attacking side often faced the situation of attacking the city.

It's not that it's impossible to bypass the city.

But once you cross the city and enter the enemy's rear, it is equivalent to handing over the rear to the enemy, and it is easy to be double-teamed.

Also, the logistics supply line is the lifeline, and it is also an important part that affects the outcome of the war.

Once broken, the consequences are unimaginable.

"If it is an ordinary army, maybe it can do this."

"But since Gongsun Zan dared to lead his army into Pingyun County, he must have full confidence!"

"According to speculation, the number of cavalry entering the boundary of Pingyun County must not be less than 20!"

"20 cavalry! Even if an encirclement is formed, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes for them to break through!"

"Besides, Gongsun Zan probably wants us to go out of the city and fight them!"

Qin Yuan shook his head.

Blocking enemy forces is simply not practical.

Not to mention a cavalry that can move at high speed.

Unless they can lead cavalry with a larger number and stronger combat effectiveness than them, to fight the opponent.

As for cutting off the enemy's life supply line.

Qin Yuan has also considered it.

It is not realistic to implement.

Because Gongsun Zan probably never thought of using his own supply line at all.

There are so many villages, towns and cities in Pingyun County. Apart from Pingyun County and the city guarded by the player's coalition army, which other city can stop the attack of 20 troops?

Although cavalry is not good at siege.

However, when the strength of the army reaches a certain level, wouldn't it be easy to break through a city.

Except for Pingyun County, the cities occupied by Qin Yuan had as many as [-] defenders and as few as three to five thousand.

In addition to the front-line army and a city near the county seat that serves as a temporary headquarters, the player coalition forces have fewer defenders, probably not even five thousand.

In other words.

As long as Gongsun Zan wants, he can conquer most of the cities at any time, not to mention some villages and small towns.

Just as Qin Yuan expected.

On the second day, Qin Yuan received news that four cities had fallen.

The locations of these four cities are also ingenious. If you look at the map, you can find that these four cities are located in the four directions of Pingyun County, East, South, North, and West.

At first glance, it looks as if Qingfeng Village and the player coalition forces have been surrounded.

It is even declaring that as long as Gongsun Zan's army wants to, it can attack any city.

Lost four cities, almost one-tenth of the territory.

However, the blow and impact on the morale of the rebels is very large.

Among the four cities, three belonged to the player coalition forces, and one belonged to Qin Yuan.

The nearest city is less than a hundred kilometers away from Pingyun County.

At the same time, in addition to these cities, some guilds deployed troops and were attacked during the march.

Gongsun Zan's army seemed to be equipped with satellite radar, and any movement of the army could not escape their eyes.

Once you leave the city, you will be attacked by cavalry.

Even some players who occupied villages and towns were raided by Youzhou Tuqi.

On this day, Pingyun County lost four cities, countless villages and towns, and more than [-] casualties!
As for the players' coalition forces, they were even more afraid of being beaten. They were so frightened that they hid in the city, not daring to leave.

The problem they faced at this time was not only the 20 powerful foreign enemies, but also internal spies, which completely exposed their whereabouts to the enemy.

Every move is seen by the enemy.

On the player coalition side, people are even more panicked, and their morale has been hit hard.

Because they discovered that conventional fighting methods seemed unable to deal with Gongsun Zan's cavalry.

The enemy obviously has unparalleled combat power, but they have been adopting guerrilla tactics to harass the cities and armies of all parties, and then gradually erode, and even mobilize public opinion, attacking the heart first, making the players' coalition forces feel desperate.

They even took advantage of the cavalry to rampage across the Pingyun Plain. Any army that dared to appear would be attacked by Youzhou Tuqi.

The players were even more huddled in the city, afraid to leave, and worried about being attacked by the enemy.

But if it continues, you can only sit and wait.

It has to be said that Gongsun Zan used 20 cavalry to complete the blockade of the major cities in Pingyun County. This strategy was undoubtedly successful.

Even Qin Yuan didn't dare to send the army out easily.

Wait until the third day.

The Luoxing City in the southernmost part of Pingyun County was attacked by the imperial army.

After holding on for half a day, Luoxing City was breached, and the entire [-] soldiers in the city were wiped out.

In fact, when Fallen Star City was under attack, the higher-ups of the player coalition received the news, but there was nothing they could do, let alone support.

They could only watch Luoxing City fall.

Once supported, the army will inevitably suffer a surprise attack on the marching road, and the losses will only be greater at that time.

According to the news sent back, there were about 30 troops attacking Fallen Star City this time.

Among them, 20 belong to Gongsun Zan's elite bowmen, and the other [-] are players from all over the world.

This is not the player power of Pingyun County.

It's the army of players gathered from all over Shanggu County.

Youzhou released a large-scale bandit suppression mission to encircle and suppress the rebels in Pingyun County, and they will receive a lot of money and meritorious rewards.

Those who made the top ten meritorious service will be awarded the title of "General Against Bandits" by the imperial court.

Although it is the lowest general title, it is very valuable, much more powerful than the military general profession.

This is an official position conferred by the imperial court, and it will be recognized in any place, and the invisible benefits it brings are countless.

This undoubtedly attracted the participation of a large number of player guilds.

Moreover, what happened in Pingyun County has always been a hot spot on the official website forum.

All the players knew that the player alliance in Pingyun County was beaten helplessly in front of Gongsun Zan's army and lost many cities in a row.

Therefore, this time, the army led by Gongsun Zan was the main force, and the players who participated in the suppression of the bandits assisted from the side and grabbed some military exploits in the back, so there was no need to worry about suffering too much loss.

And this army of 20 bandit suppressing players is just the first batch.

It is reported that there are still many player forces sending troops to Pingyun County.

The only thing that worries all the players is that they are not afraid that the rebels in Pingyun County are too powerful, but that they are worried that the rebels will lose too quickly, and that the mission will be over before they get involved!

Compared with the players who participated in the suppression of the bandits, the player coalition forces in Pingyun County kept having bad news.

After Falling Star City fell for a long time, several surrounding cities fell along with it.

Except because of foreign enemies.

Civil strife broke out in these cities.

Not only the gentry and common people in the city rose up to resist, but also some players rebelled and betrayed the player alliance.

This time, it was another major blow to the player alliance.

In an acropolis closest to Pingyun County.

Here gathered the troops stationed in Baihua Palace, Bajue Tianxia and other guilds.

The number is about 20, accounting for half of the players' coalition forces.

After knowing that Gongsun Zan's army had sneaked into Pingyun County, they hid in the acropolis and did not dare to leave.

And these days, except for the discovery of some suspected Gongsun Zan spies outside the Acropolis, they have not suffered any attacks.

But they knew very well that it was because of the defense of the city wall that they did not become the target of the enemy's attack.

Once they leave the city, the inner ghosts will definitely leak their information, and they will definitely be attacked.

The story of the player's inner ghost has long been known to everyone.

For the sake of profit, it is not uncommon to betray one's companions.

On Gongsun Zan's side, there were also players involved in suppressing bandits.

Therefore, they can know every move of the player's coalition through the news between the players.

As the saying goes, success is also a player, and failure is also a player.

Although they are all players, they are not in the same community of interests.

On the contrary, because of the bandit suppression mission issued by the Youzhou government, their relationship was directly turned into enemies.

"Nine cities have been lost!"

The starry sky of Baihua Palace said with a serious expression.

In the past few days, bad news has come one after another, and there is no good news.

And they also tried to counterattack, sending an army first, followed by a large army to ambush.

But in the end it failed, because the news was leaked out!
In this way, not only the situation of the players' coalition forces is in a precarious situation, but it also makes the internal parties suspect each other and no longer dare to trust anyone.

Because any player or guild may collude with Gongsun Zan and betray the players' alliance.

In particular, the establishment of the player coalition is not without the shadow of the Gongsun family.

The previous Gongsun Hong had a very close relationship with any guild.

Every guild has received financial support from the Gongsun family.

Even the Baihua Palace once thought of joining the Gongsun family, and the relationship between the two is extremely close.

Therefore, no one can get rid of the suspicion, and anyone may be the ghost.

"Gongsun Zan used the deterrence of the cavalry to keep us from leaving the city without permission, and we couldn't dispatch troops at all!"

"Now, their siege troops have arrived in Pingyun County and captured several cities in a row!"

"We are in a dilemma now, what should we do?"

A group of high-level players from the player guild gathered together, but there was nothing to do.

They thought that after their strength soared, they would have the power to wrestle with Gongsun Zan.

Be realistic but teach them a lesson.

They have forgotten that in addition to the strength of the army, the factors that determine the outcome of a war include strategic tactics.

A successful strategy can change the outcome of a war.

Therefore, strength is not the only key to determining victory or defeat.

Otherwise, there would not be so many examples of winning more with less in history.

"That's all we can do now!"

"First, find a way to bring the armies of all parties together. Dispersing the cities will only lead to a dead end. In the end, they will only be defeated individually. Only when they gather together, can they have a chance to fight against the enemy!"

"The second is to unite with Qingfengzhai to fight together. Because of the territory, Qin Yuan didn't want to participate in the battle with the imperial court, and also wanted to use us to consume the enemy's strength. But in the current situation, we can only unite. I believe Qin Yuan will not Will refuse!"

"The third is to start a large-scale battle with Gongsun Zan's army as soon as possible. This is our only chance! Otherwise, if we can't go on, I'm afraid the coalition forces will lose their hearts. I don't know who is the insider, but the insider's The existence of shaking the morale of the army, the longer it takes, the more unfavorable it will be for us, and many guilds have participated in the bandit suppression operation, and the enemy's army will only increase by then, and it is even more impossible for us to win this war!"

Tianxia Gujiu of Tianxiahui stood up and said to everyone.

"Anyway, it's death. Even before death, you have to bite off the enemy's flesh!"

Chairman Guanghui said angrily.

These days, the life of their player alliance is really aggrieved.

The army that fell under Gongsun Zan's army may number as many as 15.

And the number of enemies killed was not even [-].

This is the casualty ratio after their strength has been enhanced.

If it was before, I am afraid that the casualty ratio will only be higher.

No way, although they have strength, they can't display it normally.

The sum of all their troops must exceed the 20 cavalry under Gongsun Zan's command.

But in every war that breaks out, the enemy is outnumbered, the enemy is strong and we are weak, and we are always crushed by the enemy.

"I agree!"

Everyone agreed.

This is also their last chance.

A way must be found to break this predicament.

After seeing that everyone was fine, they discussed the future battle plan.

On the one hand, it is planned to let the player army scattered in the major cities start to move to the city where they are now.

Although they will definitely be attacked by enemy cavalry, if they act together, some of them will definitely arrive successfully.

As for the rest, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

On the other hand, they sent people to the county seat to discuss the alliance with Qin Yuan.

In the end, it was to find a way to fight Gongsun Zan's army.
