Chapter 863 Shi Dakai Is a Coward

The satellite city was "emptied", and the second step of the expeditionary force's combat plan was successfully implemented.

Near noon, there was a sudden rumbling sound from the southern suburbs outside the city of Rabat. The three armies led by the vice-general of the expeditionary army Bai Qi marched all the way and finally arrived outside the city of Rabat.

The army of more than 200,000 people almost covered the sky and the sun, and the edge could not be seen at a glance.

All in sight are black soldiers, with a cold light.

In the vast army formation, banners fluttering, iron armors shining, swords and guns everywhere, and people and horses are solemn. Before the army approached, one could feel a chill coming, which made people feel timid.

On the city wall, whether it was the imperial guards or the Moroccan players, seeing such a magnificent military appearance, all of them looked dignified and were speechless in shock.

As the saying goes: If you don't climb Mount Tai, you don't know the height of the mountain; if you don't face the abyss, you don't know the depth of the water.

After seeing the iron-blooded army of the Great Xia Dynasty with their own eyes, the Moroccan players just knew what a strong army is. The players on the city wall were not all adventurers. Some of them had also been lords before, but they had bad luck and were brutally eliminated by the wilderness and turned into adventurers.

These former lords were even more moved when they saw such a large army. In comparison, the army in their previous territory was no different from the militia, and they were not even qualified for comparison.

The strength of the Great Xia Dynasty can be seen.

Thinking of this, the uneasiness in the hearts of the Moroccan players grew stronger. Some players at the top of the city couldn't bear such a depressing atmosphere of war, their feet trembled unconsciously, and their faces turned slightly pale.

If you haven't really seen the iron-blooded army with your own eyes, you won't understand this feeling.

The game designed by Gaia is too realistic.

Whether it is the Longxiang Army or the Imperial Guard Army, they are all experienced and powerful troops. All the soldiers have their own murderous aura. This murderous aura was realistically simulated by Gaia, constantly stimulating the fragile nerves of the players.

Adventurers who have been fighting wild beasts have never seen such a battle.

Gaia's move has its own deep meaning, and it naturally wants players to adapt to the killing atmosphere of this battlefield in advance in the game. In this way, players will not be timid in the face of unknown challenges when they arrive at Hope Planet.

A player team that has not been tempered by blood and fire is really vulnerable to such an army.

…………

Five miles outside the city of Rabat, Bai Qi was guarded by a regiment of iron eagle swordsmen. Walking in the middle of the army formation, Bai Qi glanced at the city of Rabat in the distance, and his eyes flashed.

Bai Qi is no stranger to this city, and he even stayed in the city for one night. Bai Qi knows very well that any royal city, even the lowest level, is still a strong city.

If you want to win such a powerful city, you must have enough patience, and you must not act too hastily.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi said: "Send the order, the whole army is stationed on the spot. Order Shi Dakai to lead the Fifth Army, and immediately march into the satellite city to clear away the obstacles in the city. There must be no mistakes."

Bai Qi's military order seems random, but it actually has a deep meaning.

On the one hand, Shi Dakai has just led the army and hasn't made any meritorious deeds yet, so Bai Qi is giving Shi Da a chance to make meritorious deeds. Second, Bai Qi also took the opportunity to investigate Shi Dakai's ability.

The king admired Shi Dakai very much, but Bai Qi wanted to believe what he saw.

Marching is no small matter, even if it is to attack an undefended empty city, it can test the general's ability. Especially for a general like Bai Qi, there are more things to see.

"No!" The messenger galloped away.

After a little tilt, the vast army stopped and ordered to stop. The sea breeze blew by, and the black army didn't make a sound, just like sculptures standing in the wilderness, motionless.

The Moroccan players in the distance were even more awe-inspiring when they saw it.

At the same time, the Fifth Army Corps, which was deployed on the right wing of the army, suddenly moved. The entire army broke away from the main force, but accelerated its march, turned eastward, and headed straight for the satellite city.

"What are they going to do?" The Moroccan player was puzzled.

Someone hesitated and said: "Looking at the direction, they seem to be attacking satellite cities."

"Aren't they too careful to fight satellite cities at this time?" The Moroccan player was speechless.

"Are we going to stop it?"

"No. This may be the enemy's trick. The purpose is to let us divide our troops so as to reduce the resistance of the enemy's attack on the king's city. We must not be fooled."

"That's right. The satellite city is just an empty city. If they want it, they can take it."

In this way, the Moroccan player decided to wait and see.

As for the Royal Guards, they will not leave their posts without military orders. The duty of the imperial guards is to defend the royal city, so why would they care about a satellite city.

What's more, it was still an empty city.

Of course, at this time, it is impossible for the Imperial Guard to take the initiative to go out of the city to launch an attack.

…………

Just at the moment, the Fifth Army led by Shi Dakai had already moved quickly.

Facts have proved that Shi Dakai did not disappoint Bai Qi.

I saw that the Fifth Army broke away from the central army, arrived at the foot of the satellite city in less than half an hour, and did not immediately attack the city. Shi Dakai first cleaned up the formation, and then arranged his troops in an even and steady manner like attacking a fortified city.

At the end of the day, a vanguard of swords and shields was arranged to break open the city gate brazenly.

After entering the city, Shi Dakai first arranged for a cavalry to scout the situation in the city, and after confirming that there was no ambush in the city, he arranged for the guards to break the stone monument of the satellite city until the teleportation array completely disappeared.

During the whole process, Shi Dakai was not in a hurry.

During this period, whether it was the urging of the soldiers of the fifth army or the noise of the soldiers of the Chinese army, Shi Dakai turned a deaf ear to it, and sat in the middle of the army with a deadpan expression, commanding with determination.

In this way, it took the Fifth Army an hour and a half to take down an empty city. During the whole process, the players in the royal city of Rabat dared not teleport over to fight the expeditionary army.

Shi Dakai sent someone to report to Commander Bai Qi that the satellite city had been successfully captured when the Fifth Army Corps entered the satellite city and guarded all the important places in the city.

Bai Qi listened, nodded, and thought in his heart: "There is indeed a style of a general."

Only in this way, Shi Dakai inevitably bears the title of "coward". In the army, it is not a pleasant thing to bear such a name on the back.

The soldiers looked at Shi Dakai with strange eyes, but Shi Dakai had a serious face, and no one could see anything abnormal from Shi Dakai's expression.

…………

The Fifth Army took down the satellite city, and the expeditionary army naturally had no reason to camp outside the city. Bai Qi immediately ordered that the whole army be stationed in the satellite city one by one.

In this way, the expeditionary army obtained a super barracks at once, saving a lot of time and energy.

The army came from a long distance, and they didn't have enough tools to build camps. If they built camps in the wild, they would suffer a lot. Among other things, the mosquitoes at night alone are enough for the army to drink a pot.

Last night alone, when the army temporarily rested on the coast, more than two hundred soldiers were bitten by mosquitoes, infected with diseases, and their bodies were swollen, which was extremely tragic.

Mosquitoes in summer are indeed a very terrifying existence, and mosquitoes are also easy to bring infectious diseases, which is a great disaster. Once the army is infected with some epidemic diseases, it will be a disaster.

When the army entered the satellite city, as long as the sanitation was properly controlled, the situation would naturally be much better.

Bai Qi ruled the army strictly. After the army entered the city, except for the troops responsible for searching for supplies in the city, the other ministries were stationed one by one according to the designated defense area, and were not allowed to leave without reason.

The players in the satellite city withdrew in a hurry, but they left behind a lot of supplies. In addition to food, the pharmacy also kept some cheap medicines, and the equipment store also had some arrows, which is better than nothing!

More importantly, military craftsmen can use the workshops and raw materials in the city to temporarily process a batch of arrows and repair equipment for the army, but it is much better than tents in the wild.

Otherwise, why the ancient marchers like to station in the city the most, and this is the reason.

…………

At the head of Rabat, the Moroccan players were completely dumbfounded.

Seeing that the army of the Great Xia Dynasty was attacking, on the top of the city, both the players and the imperial guards were ready to fight to the death with the enemy at the top of the city.

Unexpectedly, the enemy army approached aggressively, turned a blind eye to the royal city Rabat, took down the satellite city first in a blink of an eye, and wandered into the city.

"How do you say this? Don't they know that this is a national war, and they are so leisurely!"

"Damn, that's too damn contemptuous!"

"Is the Great Xia Dynasty planning to trap us in the city? It's ridiculous."

According to the player's habitual thinking, since the two sides have started a war, they will naturally have to go all out. The Mediterranean Fleet of the Great Xia Dynasty had already captured Udaya Castle and breached the North City Gate, so there was no reason to stop there.

Entering the satellite city at this time is not just playing with people.

"How do I feel, we have been calculated again?"

The Moroccan players looked at each other and had a bad feeling.

From this point of view, the army of the Great Xia Dynasty is stronger if it is stronger, but there is no certainty of victory, so the enemy army will not attack the city immediately, but chooses to win a stronghold and prepare for a protracted war.

"If we knew this earlier, we should have taken the initiative to attack and teach them a lesson."

"That's right, we're still too conservative."

It's not that the Moroccan players are conservative, but that the expeditionary army with its heyday is the first to win, overwhelming the Moroccan players in terms of momentum. In the situation just now, how dare they take the initiative to attack.

"That's not necessarily the case. If we really want to attack, the enemy might have something waiting for us."

Someone said so comfortingly.

"Yes, the other party is too cunning!"

Even though they said so, the players felt a little regretful in their hearts. If they had known this, they would not have evacuated the satellite city so easily, and let the enemy army take advantage of it.

"We don't need to panic. Procrastination like this will be even more detrimental to the enemy. Don't forget that there are still three territories in the country. When the army of the territories comes to King Qin, the enemy may be clever and be misled by their cleverness."

There is no shortage of talent among the players.

"That's right. There is plenty of food and grass in the city, so it's more beneficial for us to consume it like this. On the contrary, the enemy army came from a long distance, and the supplies carried with the army may not last for a week. Since they want to consume it, then we will accompany it to the end."

"I will accompany you to the end!"
