Chapter 132 Attack and Defense of Soto City [Part ]

This era is not a peaceful era to begin with. Countries are at war with each other and constantly conquering each other. Every city is on alert and can be converted to defense at any time.

Even countries with the same stance are wary of each other and will never hesitate to stab the neighboring city when an accident occurs. The Tiandou Empire is bloated due to its huge territory and cannot and cannot control the battles between its own cities. As long as it is not a war to destroy the country, the gains and losses of a city or a place will often occur. This is why Cheng Ying chose to attack a city in the Tiandou Empire.

As for the excuse to start a war, he had already found one. According to the imperial military order, Duke Tulip personally led an army to the Kingdom of Luolin, and supplies and food could be obtained from the cities along the way.

The Duke asked Soto City to prepare five hundred ferries to cross the river, but Soto City refused. He had no choice but to refuse. Soto City did not have that many boats at all. The so-called Tulip Duke had never heard of it. The messenger was He was kicked out directly.

Although the excuse is lame, it is enough. The Caohe River is Chengying's retreat to the Luolin Kingdom. He must be in his own hands, otherwise Soto City will be closed during the retreat, and even set fire to the river to stop Chengying. If you retreat, the fun will be great.

Among the more than 10,000 people, there were only 3,000 combat soldiers, and the rest were logistics soldiers responsible for transporting baggage and cooperating with the artillery.

Among the three thousand soldiers, two thousand muskets advanced in formation. Each of them carried a main weapon, a Mosin-Nagant rifle and a secondary weapon, a Kalashnikov assault rifle. The one that came out may be different from the original, after all, he never actually touched these guns.

Each soldier wears two ceramic-cased fragmentation grenades on his waist. This is the biggest life-saving prop after being caught in a melee.

In addition, there were a thousand grenadiers, each equipped with ten cast-iron-cased fragmentation grenades and only two large-caliber pistols as thermal weapons at their waists.

There is internal energy 01 on the back, which powers the ice and fire on the waist, two long knives, and a melee equipment. The tactical goal is to rush up and occupy the city wall as soon as possible after the artillery blasts open the city wall. The danger is very high. Soul masters are likely to die, but they are also the easiest to obtain meritorious service.

When the troops advanced ten miles outside the city, Sotuo City closed the city gates tightly. The defensive soldiers climbed onto the city wall to stand guard. The archers were ready to shoot downwards. Because ordinary people in Douluo Continent also have good physical fitness, bows and arrows It can be made very heavy. The one-stone bow is just the basis here, and the most exaggerated one is the ten-stone bow.

Ordinary soul masters can't pull it away, and its destructive power and range are already on par with sniper rifles.

Andy, the lord of Soto City, stood at the top of the city and looked at the neatly formed Tulip army. His brows furrowed into a "Sichuan" shape. The number of soldiers on both sides was three thousand, but with the opponent's strict military discipline and uniform movements, it was very difficult to It is easy to judge the outcome of a field battle outside the city.

Not to mention the opponent's strange weapons, even if they only use ordinary spears, it is by no means easy to defeat.

"Light the smoke, order the defenders not to leave the city to fight in the field, stick to the city wall, mobilize the young men in the city to prepare rolling wood and stones, and demolish the houses fifty meters inside the city wall to prevent the enemy from using fire attacks.

Collect human and animal excrement and boil it into golden juice. If enemy ants attack the city, pour the golden juice and roll wood and stones, it can withstand it for at least a week. Reinforcements will arrive a week later, so Xiaozi outside the city has nothing to fear! "

If this was a classical siege, Andy had no problem with what he did. It could even be said that his command was determined. Even if he faced tens of thousands of soldiers attacking the city, it would be easy to hold on for a week.

It's a pity that he doesn't know the true face of this battle, and he doesn't know the terror and speed in the battlefield full of iron and fire. Under the city, the infantrymen held Mosin Nagants. As rifles that could be used as sniper rifles, their range was much longer than that of bows and arrows. Even if they shot upwards, they would definitely have a farther range than bows and arrows.

The infantry arranged in scattered skirmish lines looked chaotic, but it gave people a sense of pressure. The artillery set up artillery batteries two kilometers outside the city. The 152mm heavy artillery was unloaded from the truck and lined up in a row. A heavy artillery position with one hundred artillery pieces was deployed on a flat terrain outside the city.

Andy had never seen such a siege, but he could tell that the location of those heavy artillery should be the location of trebuchets in regular battles, which made him feel a little bad.

Long-range siege machinery such as trebuchets would hardly cause many casualties in the city, but it would seriously affect morale. In serious cases, mutiny might even occur. Although he was not worried about soldiers having the ability to take his head to collect the reward, if the city was opened quietly, The door is definitely a problem.

Cheng Ying's army advanced silently, with no formation calls or insults. They were silent and cold, which made people feel even more suffocated.

Finally, Andy couldn't sit still anymore and bowed to several old men in rich attire behind him: "The Tulip Duke is coming menacingly. If the city is broken, it will be plundered. I believe you will not understand the truth of lips dying and teeth falling cold." The operators of the Soul Fighting Arena and the participating teams probably don't want to see the city change hands.

Nowadays, Tulip Duke has a lot of construction machinery. If the bombardment continues day and night, the morale of the defenders may be lost. If we then passively defend, the huge Soto City cannot be defended by just a few of us.

This time everyone was called together to discuss a surprise attack out of the city to destroy the enemy's siege equipment. If it was successful, the annual tax revenue of the Great Soul Fighting Field would be reduced by another 30% on the current basis. The spirit masters who participated in the operation were above the third level. People can also receive one hundred gold soul coins. "

It’s definitely a lie to say that it doesn’t hurt. Soto City relies on the Great Soul Arena to make money. The tens of thousands of gold soul coins paid to the participating teams can be earned back in a few months, but the 30% tax reduction is so Andy's heart is bleeding! But there was no Contra in charge of the fighting arena, and there was no guarantee for this operation, so he had no choice but to cut his flesh with pain.

Hearing Andy's promise, Mark's slightly old face showed a hint of joy under his white robe, but he quickly covered it up and coughed lightly: "We are part of Soto City, and we are the city lord. Of course it's your duty to share the worries, so don't worry, City Lord, the construction machinery won't be able to fire a single projectile today!" As he said that, two yellow, three purple and three black soul rings appeared behind Mark, majestic.

Outside the city, Cheng Ying, who was practicing lip reading with a telescope, raised his eyebrows and complained: "What a hypocritical adult!"

"You are talking as if you are a ninety-nine hundred thousand year old child." The Ice Emperor grabbed the telescope and saw Mark leading more than a hundred soul masters and jumping down from the city wall.

Cheng Ying raised the flag in his hand, drummers beat drums to convey orders, the machine gun positions were ready to fire, and the infantry covered the grenadiers in preparation for counterattack.
