The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 488 Attack Frustrated
Several people came to a unified understanding, and Earl Kles and Earl Tswede clearly expressed their desire to return to the Kingdom of Swadia, but Zhang Qiang has no way to help them now.

Because he just came to power and became the earl lord, it is not so easy to become an earl country, at least you have to have interests, and this interest must be so great that Harlaus can't accept it, and it will definitely be realized. reluctantly.

In a unified and powerful country, it is impossible for the lords under its flag to be too powerful, as that would threaten the foundation of his rule. The kings of Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty are both powerful. No matter what, they are always suspected by others.

So this matter was left alone, it just allowed everyone to unify their understanding, surround Zhang Qiang more closely, and serve faithfully for his rule.

Conquering Lana City will make Zhang Qiang's rule more legitimate. A big city is very representative in terms of dignity, face, and strength.

The grassland green of the Kingdom of Swadia, when it arrived at Lana, it was obviously at the end of its strength. The green color turned into a gradual yellow-green color, crossed Lana City, and advanced towards Zegasi Pass in Kujit. Before reaching Zegasi , the sky is already full of yellow sand, the mountain wind howls, and the eyes are full of yellow dust, but after crossing the mountain pass, the Kugit lowland grassland surrounded by mountains has another appearance, just like the valley climate in Sichuan. The climate is relatively humid in all seasons, and the vegetation is lush, but due to the shelter of the mountains, the vegetation here is not very high, just enough for the nomads to graze, support cattle, sheep and livestock, and feed them.

There are more frailty and less toughness here. That's why they were beaten to pieces by the highland tribesmen from outside the mountains. They were assimilated and disintegrated within a few years, and became the subjects of the Kujit Kingdom.

After crossing Kujit Mountain, you will find the current Sultanate of Sarande. Where there is yellow sand all over the sky, only sandy dates, date palms, and coconut trees can survive. Of course, there are also semi-nomadic and semi-settled Sarande people.

Adapted to the barren land, they have created their aggressive living habits. They are more civilized than the Kujit, but stronger. If it is not for the terrain, they must have wiped out the Kujit and occupied the Kujit. The kingdom is gone.

Their Mamluk knights, whose skills are on the grasslands, can survive and fight in the desert full of yellow sand, and their strength has reached the level of quasi-sixth rank. Rand Mamluk, it is not certain who will win.

Of course, in small battles, the Sarande Mamluks are still defeated in front of the highly disciplined Swadian army because they have to take into account flexibility and defense, and they are better at fighting alone. Invincible, they haven't made any progress for decades, maybe they can also bully the Rhodok infantry who came out of the mountain, but facing the army of the Kingdom of Swadia, with all kinds of troops and strict discipline, they have no chance of winning Yes, of course sneak attacks and some limited tactical use are not counted.

But today is not a contest with Saland Mamluk, today is a contest with Nayan Boli of Kujit. As a member of the Nayan Asugan family, he has not been out in the two years of battle, so his strength has not been affected. The loss, and his brother Na Yan A Suqian, Na Yan A Guer both met Zhang Qiang at the same time, one was beaten and lost his status as a sweater, and the other was exhausted in the battle and offended Zhang Qiang at the same time. Saiji Khan had to go far away, and finally fell into Zhang Qiang's arms and worked for Zhang Qiang.

At present, Earl Agu'er has been sent by Zhang Qiang to Fort Malag to meet the Kugit expeditionary force of Sergi Khan of the Kugit Kingdom.

It is a question of time and strength whether Sergei Khan will take down Malagburg first, or Zhang Qiang will take down Lana first.

After getting off the horse, it can be said that the Kujit people are all infantry and archers. First of all, they are archers. Therefore, in terms of archery, even if Zhang Qiang sent all the archers, they would not be able to shoot them. You have 10 There are 100 archers. Even if the damage and range are not as good as yours, but you are attacking the city and they are guarding the city. You play all kinds of tricks and they are defending the city. You have to go to the edge of the city. Therefore, Zhang Qiang’s The one-wave tactics of archers are no longer applicable.

Send elites to attack the city, but the losses are too great. In front of the dense rain of bows and arrows similar to the density of bullets shot by Gatling, no matter how strong the elite armor is, there will always be unpredictable places, so elite sieges are not enough. .

Huge casualties must be paid. Perhaps the Kujit are relatively weak. In terms of foot combat and fighting, they are one-fifth of the strength of the elite soldiers of the Swadia Kingdom. In terms of riding and shooting, the soldiers of the Swadia Kingdom are only half as strong One-tenth, or even weaker, but at present, Zhang Qiang and the others are attacking, and others are defending. All you have to do is to step on their walls first, and then you can use your advantage when you get close.

This is also the reason why Earl Kles besieged and did not attack.

There are 1 enemy troops in Lana City, and the ratio of troops is 1:1.

If there is a strong attack, the casualties will be very high. Although the entire army will not be wiped out, it will definitely suffer heavy losses.

This is a headache for Zhang Qiang and Earl Cress. The two always want to find a perfect solution that can reduce losses and win Lana City.

Unfortunately, at present, there is no such a perfect solution.

On the second day, Zhang Qiang could only use the old method to organize archers, a large number of archers, to besiege the city of Lana in Kujit from all sides.

This time, there are 1200 crossbowmen in the Kingdom of Swadia, 2300 Vekia archers, a total of one-third of the troops, and one or two hundred Kujit rangers and cavalry archers. Said that the place Zhang Qiang occupies now, apart from Lunwadia Fort, Drimag Fort is an inherent territory of the Kingdom of Swadia, Malag Fort and Tuskrum Village, and even Uludana Village Most of the people are of the Kujit nationality, so it is inevitable that there will be Kujit troops in his army.

Of course, using the same short-range Kujit archers to shoot at the Kujit people standing on the city wall is a brain-dead behavior.

So Zhang Qiang still mainly uses crossbowmen. One of the disadvantages of crossbowmen is that they are slow, but their lethality and range are greater and farther than manual archery.

When Vikia archers shoot at opponents on the city wall, they don't trigger the arrow rain effect, and the shooting range is still a little short, let alone a big city with high walls and fortifications like Lana, where the Kujit stand at a height of seventeen or eight meters , you need to raise your head and take all your strength to shoot the arrow up. People shoot the arrow down easily, which is still full of strength.

So there are also some disadvantages. The Vekia archers are used by Zhang Qiang to make feints and harassment shots in the other three directions. The main force is still the 1200 Swadia kingdom crossbowmen, especially those sharpshooters, masters, and snipers. One third, nearly 400 people.

The Kujit on this side were inflicted with heavy casualties on the first day.

Covering the siege equipment approached the city wall.

Coupled with the continuous shooting of catapults and bed crossbows, it can be seen that the Kugits on this side of the city wall suffered heavy casualties, and fewer and fewer shot arrows. In the end, they simply hid and stopped fighting back.

On the first day, with 1200 crossbowmen, Zhang Qiang suppressed the enemy and pushed the battlefield 200 meters below the city wall. The crossbowmen shot at the enemy on the city wall 150 meters away, and the casualties were almost negligible.

But the next day the Kujit began to resist tenaciously. At a distance of 100 meters, they were able to kill the crossbowmen and the infantry pushing the siege equipment in large numbers by virtue of their height.

On this day, Zhang Qiang and the others successfully pushed the siege equipment to the edge of the city wall. Several siege tower vehicles had already put the springboard on the city wall. However, due to the tenacious resistance of the enemy, all the soldiers who went up were quickly killed. After all, there are not many people, about a hundred or so. If a steady stream of soldiers can be used to climb the city wall, Zhang Qiang and the others will win this war, but the problem is that they knocked down the siege tower truck and set it on fire. up.

Those soldiers who fell from a height of [-] or [-] meters, and then were burned by the enemy were miserable, which made people shudder.

The troops were withdrawn the next day. According to statistics, 200 people were killed, more than 700 people were injured, and more than 30 people were missing.

At least one hundred elite soldiers were killed or injured in this battle. The soldiers who rushed up in the first wave cleared the way for the soldiers behind, so they were all elite soldiers above the third rank, which was a great loss.

When Zhang Qiang was silent, Mamunboye beside him said, "Maybe we can try to send people to sneak into the city secretly, and then open a city gate, and our people lie in ambush around the city gate, and rush into the city in one go." .”
