Chapter 1177 Soul Attracting Talisman
On June 4th, the 500,000 troops of the Gupta Dynasty successfully landed in Pathein City in the south of Hetao Province. After a day of fierce fighting with the Imperial Guards stationed here, they successfully occupied the city and obtained a forward base.
The Gupta Dynasty was very clever, and finally chose the Hetao area, which was easier to win, as a breakthrough.
Not long after the Hetao Province returned to Daxia, the defenses of the coastal cities had not had time to be rearranged, and the P1 artillery had not yet been installed at the top of the city, which gave the Gupta Dynasty an opportunity.
If it is Hanoi Province, the situation may be different.
The imperial guards only stationed less than 10,000 infantry in the city. Seeing that the battle was tight, they could only choose to retreat strategically, and make plans after reuniting with the main force.
During this period, the army of the Maurya Dynasty was also frequently dispatched on the border, sweeping up the outposts, villages and watchtowers arranged by Daxia on the border, and they were menacing.
The Great Xia Army could only gather in the city and guard, not daring to act rashly.
Depending on the situation, Tianzhu District is preparing to concentrate its forces and take down the Hetao Province in one fell swoop in order to obtain real benefits. This kind of "not greedy" is also very rare.
It's just that this kind of passive situation is the first time Daxia has encountered it, which is really frustrating.
The Tianzhu district has won many victories, and the morale is high. Some combat players in the country who were still on the sidelines are ready to leave and rush to the front line in an attempt to get a share of the national war battlefield.
On the contrary, global public opinion is overwhelmingly ridiculing Da Xia.
The throat of public opinion is already in the hands of Silver Hand and Azure Badge. Given this opportunity, how could they let it go? Over the past few days, the media have carried out numerous reports on Da Xia's experience, constantly singing bad words about Da Xia.
Not to mention, people really believe it.
Public opinion is also an invisible murderous knife, if used well, it can reach thousands of troops.
To Ouyang Shuo's relief, at the same time that the so-called mainstream media was bad-mouthing Da Xia, there were still some people who stood up and spoke for Da Xia.
"With his own strength, Daxia didn't even dispatch half of the imperial court's troops, and he was able to block the attack of Tianzhu District. With such strength, who can match?! I really don't know how strong those people who say Daxia can't do it have? "
"If one's own strength is not good enough, and one deliberately discredits one's opponent, it's a shame."
Although this kind of voice is very weak, it is enough to prove that the Great Xia Dynasty led by Ouyang Shuo has gained a certain sense of recognition not only in China, but also in the world.
It's like a new sprout, as long as Daxia perseveres, it will always grow into a towering tree.
It was under such circumstances that Ouyang Shuo and his party arrived in Pombin City, accompanied by 20,000 elite combat professional players in addition to 3,000 Shenwu Guards.
The duel a week ago ended with the guilds bowing to Daxia.
That being the case, now that Great Xia is under tremendous pressure on the border, these guilds are naturally obliged to send their elite players to the front line to support them.
Pombin City, the city lord's mansion.
Bai Qi briefly introduced the situation on the battlefield to the king, and then said: "With the current strength of the enemy army, if you dare to forcefully break through the defense line, you will be looking for your own death."
"It is estimated that they will not be so stupid. There are only two choices before the enemy. Either call the forbidden army of the royal city, concentrate superior forces, and take down a certain border city; care about."
"The last general thinks that the former possibility is more likely. Although the Gupta Dynasty captured Pasheng City, facing the siege and interception of the Imperial Guards, it is impossible to rush to join in a short time. They can't afford it. Therefore, the greatest possibility , It is to cut through the mess quickly and implement various defeat tactics."
Ouyang Shuo nodded, Bai Qi deserved to be Bai Qi, he had been aware of the enemy's situation early in the morning, considering Bai Qi's previous fighting style, Ouyang Shuo said with a smile: "The general must have a countermeasure? "
"The enemy doesn't know that the king can summon an additional 100,000 imperial guards to help in the battle. This is our opportunity. If we make good use of it, we will be able to counter the enemy's encirclement and create a fighting opportunity." Bai Qi replied.
Ouyang Shuo knew in his heart that the Great Xia Army was invincible, not only because of its extraordinary fighting power, but also because Ouyang Shuo always had endless cards to deal with the enemy at critical moments.
Bai Qi obviously knows how to use his hole cards very well.
Ouyang Shuo smiled, took out a talisman, handed it to Bai Qi, and said, "In addition to the 100,000 extra forbidden troops, this must also help the general."
Bai Qi took a look, with surprise on his face.
[Spirit Attracting Talisman]: After use, ten times the usual number of monsters can emerge from the monster lair.
This talisman was given to Ouyang Shuo by Bloody Romance two days ago. It is regarded as a salute. At first glance, this talisman is really not a good thing. If it really wants to attract ten times the monsters, isn't it self-inflicted? !
The normal beast horde is already exhausting to deal with, once it increases to ten times the number, no one can stop it. At the beginning, Ouyang Shuo suspected that Bloody Romance deliberately used an unusable item as a salute.
But if you think about it carefully, as long as this thing is used in the right place, it can still receive miraculous effects, such as the current battlefield.
Bai Qi naturally understood what the king meant, and said with a smile: "My lord, there is a large monster lair in the north of the border. Because of the serious disturbance of the enemy army, the Hanoi army stationed there has withdrawn from the camp a few days ago."
Ouyang Shuo nodded, "The general will follow the arrangement." Ouyang Shuo came to the front this time to supervise the battle and boost the morale of the whole army, not to take over the command of the army.
The specific battle is still in charge of the headquarters led by Bai Qi.
"Understood!" Bai Qi saluted.
Time entered June, and the monster lair became more and more restless, and the number of monsters gushing out was on the rise. If ten times as many monsters were attracted at once, it would surely be enough for the Maurya army stationed nearby to drink a pot.
Bai Qi had gradually made up his mind.
After the monarchs and ministers met, Ouyang Shuo left 20,000 combat players behind and handed them over to Bai Qi for unified command, while he took 3,000 Shenwuwei and went out of the city again, preparing to inspect the rest of the border towns.
With Shenwuwei accompanying him, the army of the Maurya Dynasty really couldn't resist Ouyang Shuohe.
If the Peacock King was really obsessed with ghosts and wanted to kill him, the King of Xia, Ouyang Shuo would not mind using himself as bait to lure the Peacock Dynasty into the bait.
Don't forget, Ouyang Shuo can summon 320,000 royal guards at any time.
…………
Maurya Dynasty, Imphal city.
Like Pombin City, Imphal City is also a small frontier city, but it is located in the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, facing Pombin City far away, so it was selected as the frontline headquarters of the Maurya Dynasty.
During this time, the army of the Maurya Dynasty had already swept the surrounding area. Naturally, the arrival of Ouyang Shuo and his party could not be hidden from their eyes, and they were soon reported to the headquarters.
City Lord's Mansion.
The Peacock King learned that King Xia had come to the front line in person. While the Peacock King was proud, he also felt a sense of urgency, and said to the generals in the hall: "We can't delay any longer."
Gupta King Akbar was also an old fox. After leading his troops to take down Pathein City, he did not rush north to join the Maurya army. Instead, he stayed in Pathein City on the grounds of waiting for food and supplies.
As the same monarch, how could the Peacock King not know Akbar's abacus. Akbar was just afraid of the Daxia Imperial Guards and did not dare to fight head-on with them.
Even if the two old rivals join forces, they still have their own agendas.
The reason why the Gupta Dynasty was able to delay was because Akbar had no ambitions for the territory of the Hetao Province. His participation in the war this time was just a way to plunder, earn merit points along the way, and win the support of Tianzhu players.
Peacock King is different.
For the Peacock Dynasty, this is their best chance, or even the only chance, to win the Hetao Province. Who knows what kind of monster Daxia will grow into next year's national war.
Coupled with the greater ambition of the Peacock King than the Gupta King, it is destined that the Maurya Dynasty's army must be more active. Seeing that the week is about to pass, they must make a difference.
Otherwise, such a golden opportunity will be missed.
"But according to your majesty's order!" The generals in the hall clasped their fists one by one, and they were also full of fighting spirit.
The Peacock King glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "Starting tomorrow, implement the siege plan."
"yes!"
So far, this national war has finally ushered in its peak.
