Chapter 1658 The war is coming

Your Majesty also nodded, and there will naturally be eunuchs who write down all these things. Now these things are just talking, but after leaving this door, all these things have become big things. It seems that the body is really not good. After talking for a while, I am out of breath. It is a bit too cruel for this old man to put the national fortune of the whole country on such an old man, but there is no way to do it , who said that the entire empire has been peaceful for too long? There are not many people who understand military affairs. Compared with other people, they are not very good, but now they can only rely on others.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing to tell the Southern Empire. Although our two empires are constantly at odds, the internal affairs of yours, to put it bluntly, belong to the same ancestor. We can fight them at other times. But we can't do it at this time. We have never seen the power of the snake queen. We just know that they will be very powerful. According to historical records, every time the snake queen appears on our side, and the murlocs appear in the Southern Empire. When we become king, the two empires can only be united. Otherwise, we will not be able to win at all. I think that as long as His Majesty revises a letter, the people of the Southern Empire should also take care of the overall situation. At this time It doesn't matter if we lose some." The Taiwei said, His Majesty's face was a bit ugly, the emperor was generally tall when the Northern and Southern Empires were not begging for help.

In history, when the snake-human race appeared in the Northern Empire, the Southern Empire did come to support it, and what was the price of millions of cavalry, but this letter was still to be written by His Majesty the Emperor, and he also knew that there were people in the Southern Empire. Many far-sighted people will definitely agree to support us, but I don't know what they will do with this request.

"The entire empire is going to enter the wartime mechanism, and all dignitaries and dignitaries must reduce their unnecessary expenses. We must all work together to overcome this difficulty, and let all the checkpoints in the empire enter a state of first-level combat readiness. Absolutely not possible. This kind of spies infiltrating into the imperial capital happened again, for the traitor Longlu, the pursuit must be severe, and absolutely not to be tolerated, but it is better not to attack too fiercely in the county palace now." Taiwei also sees the political situation of the empire. Quite clearly, this point is the same as the emperor's vision. Now the county prince's mansion just abolishes the prince for him, and the other people don't care, just find someone to watch them Well, as long as they can reimburse the empire at this time, other things don't need to be pursued so much, but if they are still obsessed with it, something serious will happen.

"Okay, what the Taiwei said is right, I will arrange these things immediately." Several people talked about other things, and the Taiwei's body couldn't hold on any longer, so they asked someone to send them back. His Majesty the Emperor just read it slowly. What the Taiwei said was more important. His Majesty the Emperor also left Cheng Zhijie to talk to him about the defense of Guangming City. , Li Cong, as the new admiral of the Nine Gates, also stayed to listen,

Li Cong is not very clear about some military issues in this era. It is always good to hear more. It seems that Li Cong may start a large-scale invasion after the savages attack, so that the entire empire will fall into a crisis. Although the fragile period was a bit cruel to the common people here, Li Cong did the right thing in the long run, and they can also enter the technological age.

"General Cheng, I have seen the defense map of Guangming City many times, but I still haven't found out that the topographic map was also here when they put down the rebellion. Things still have to be ranked first. A few people walked in front of the largest model. From the perspective of size, the defense of Guangming City is indeed the top priority of the entire imperial affairs.

"Yes, Your Majesty, please look, generals. This is our newly reinforced Bright City. It was completed a year ago. During this period, there was an attack by the savages. There were about 300,000 people in that time. The final result is that we The casualties were less than 300 people, and more than half of the enemy's 300,000 troops were wiped out by us." Cheng Zhijie pointed to the huge building in front of him and said, Li Cong saw a huge stone city erected at a dangerous pass, here It is the northern barrier of the empire, Guangming City. The main city wall must be at least a hundred meters high. It is impossible to rush up. A large number of various weapons are densely arranged within a range of twenty miles. A condescending blow would definitely cause the wildlings to suffer heavy losses.

"Everyone, Guangming City was built 30,000 years ago, and it was only a small checkpoint where less than 300,000 troops could be stationed. Back then, our army withstood the attack of the not very powerful savages here. Our empire has developed like this for thousands of years, and the savages are also developing rapidly. Of course, their speed is still a bit slow compared with ours. It can be seen from the fact that they have not stepped into the customs for these years. Ten years ago Lord Taiwei began to preside over the repair plan of Guangming City, raised the city wall of Guangming City to 120 meters, and set up thousands of observation points within hundreds of kilometers north of Guangming City, starting from Guangming City and continuing to The imperial capital and the large barracks in other administrative regions have all built spacious roads that can accommodate eight rows of soldiers. Troops from all over the empire can reach Guangming City within half a month. It is also the second line of defense of Guangming City. This is called the Deputy City by the Taiwei. The Deputy City is ten miles away from Guangming City. The city wall here is 50 meters high. Every city is the same." Cheng Zhijie pointed to a relatively small city some distance away from Guangming City.

"Now in Guangming City..." Just as Cheng Zhijie was explaining the situation in Guangming City, a lot of things have already happened on the front line of Guangming City. The observation post 150 miles north of Guangming City, here The observation post is not at the front, so some soldiers are not so concerned. They are all selected death row prisoners, and they are not afraid of them escaping here. This may be their post on the cliff in the north of Guangming City. It's safe, they will turn into civilians for any big mistake, rather than being killed in the empire, it's better to come here to make contributions.

"Boss, it's really cold in his body tonight, why don't we take out the wine, everyone drink some, and warm up well." A bald man rubbed his hands and said, this guy made a mistake. Homicide, he was going to be executed, but the people from the Ministry of War came to him and gave him such a job. Although he was close to death, he didn't have to die immediately, and when he was working, his family members could get five gold coins every month. Well, the money is not a lot, but it is enough to support the uncle I grew up with. It is a hundred times better than dying myself. There are only three people here, and one person is responsible for observation in one direction.

"Let's wait. When is it now? We only have a jar of 30 catties. If we drink it at this time, we won't be able to stop. We have to drink some every day, otherwise we will have trouble getting through it." Yes, it's better to make the fire a little more prosperous. Anyway, there are firewood everywhere on this mountain, so don't worry about it. The savages really don't know their brothers. Maybe it's because they can't see people every day.

"Yes, bald head, the boss is right. He can persist for a while now. It's like something scary. He is in charge of the north. Could it be that the savage army has appeared? The other two people have a bad feeling in their hearts. .

They all looked towards the north, and it really appeared. The savage corps, the most powerful bear corps, although it was night, they could still be seen by the moonlight. Those were all savage corps, densely packed, and there were quite a few of them. There are hundreds of thousands more.

"Don't be dazed, light up quickly, bald head, you go to prepare. Our self is a novice, and now I was punched by the boss, and I remembered everything during the usual training, so I won't be so flustered. Hurry up then Several treasures have been taken out, and they all have to go back alive. Although the wind direction tonight is not good, but at an altitude of several thousand meters, they are no problem in the air. It is said among the savages that they can fly Yes, but it seems that they are not from the same tribe as the savages, and the fights are also very fierce. There will be no flying. This is the usual thinking of people.

Fortunately, two of the three are veterans, otherwise it might not be a big deal to be scared at the moment. The hundreds of thousands of savage troops marching are much more imposing than the human army. The front is at least twenty Wan's bear army is the most terrifying. These bear men are all over three meters tall, and the person holding the stone tablet in front is even four meters tall. The shields are all made of stones, which means people like them can handle them. Otherwise, shields weighing several hundred kilograms would be useless to human beings. They don't have the ability to handle these weapons. What is the weapon? They still sprint towards Guangming City again and again, throwing their lives there.

The beacon towers were prepared with some combustible materials, and soon the three of them saw that another mountain pass a few miles away was also on fire. What they wondered was why the beacon towers in front of them were not lit. Didn't they see it? It's impossible. Even if they fall asleep, they will be awakened by such a big movement. This time, it's Brother Fei Brothers, some big birds, like eagles. A warrior of the eagle tribe sat on the giant eagle. Their weapons were sharp stone knives sharpened in their hands. With the eagle's fast speed, they cut the throats of these three people. They relied on these The people killed one outpost after another, but this time their movements were a bit slow. This place is already on fire, and the next outpost is also on fire. Even if their speed is soaring to the extreme, they can't keep up with the eye-spreading Quickly, when they were fifty miles away from Guangming City, the news finally reached Guangming City.

The main general Cheng Zhijie is not in Guangming City, but in the imperial capital. The deputy general Fengguo General Zhu Shan has become the commander of this army. When he received the news in his sleep, he immediately put on his armor and went into battle. Even if the savages want to attack It shouldn't be at this time. It's still very cold at this time. They should wait a few months until the spring blossoms before attacking. At this time, attacking is also a big test for them. However, thinking of the three emergencies that came to the imperial capital in a day, he knew that he knew about the Snake Queen, and they didn't need to know that much, as long as they knew that these savages were the same as before, they were not their opponents.

"The whole army is on alert. Thirty miles ahead, the hundreds of thousands of savages are basically here, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner as before.

"If they attacked Guangming City in the past, they would probably be in bad luck. The various killing moves here can kill these people. When they finally reach the city wall, there may not be many people left. Speaking of it The soldiers in this city still hope that they will attack from the tunnel.

When they were a thousand steps away from Guangming City, these savage troops stopped. They had already seen the walls of Guangming City. To be honest, they were scared at this time. It’s not like they haven’t been to Guangming City before. But it was the first time for them to see such a tall man. This situation made them a little scared, but when the officers' leather whips came down, they stopped talking one by one, and the scared expression just now disappeared. There is no need to be afraid, millions of troops are behind them. For the first time in ten years, so many troops have been assembled. This time, they will definitely be able to rush into the city of light to avenge their prince. They are not worthy of living on such a good land. They must be used as food. Yes, the best place for these human beings is to serve as food for our savages.

"Oh my god, these savages are so arrogant, they are going to set up camp in front of us." Nothing, the emperor has already warned them that there may be snakes coming in, but Guangming City has also strengthened their defenses , a natural enemy of snakes has also been arranged everywhere. As long as a large number of snakes are found, the orcs that are discovered will not pose any threat at all. Sooner or later they will be made into jerky. Eating orcs, these orcs also eat humans, they all regard their enemies as the most delicious food, but over the years, it seems that humans eat orcs more often, and the chances of orcs to eat humans are still relatively small.

Zhu Shan took a look in the tallest tower in Guangming City. There are at least 500,000 orcs that can be seen so far, and they are all relatively large bears and bulls. A useless race. They are characterized by large numbers of people and relatively fast reproductive ability. Their greatest role is to serve as cannon fodder in the army. Now there must be 200,000 cattle people among the 500,000 people. Their boss is the most useless among the orcs, just like cattle in human society, they are useless at all, but they are a bit stronger, and their annual reproductive ability is very strong, the savages don't have so much food to give They eat, so reducing the population on the battlefield is a necessary policy, and after these cattlemen die, the wildlings can carry nothing. If they can't be eaten, it will be useless at all. They I don't care about being eaten.

Soon, the savages prepared to form a huge phalanx, consisting of about 40,000 people, with 500 people in each row, and a total of 80 rows. Seen from above, it was quite a large phalanx Well, it seems that these beasts are providing cover for those who are camping. They are about 800 steps away from the main city wall. Some powerful archers in this position can kill them, but they are all four meters in front For the tall stone shield, the two of them inserted the shield into the frozen soil vigorously, and then hid behind the shield and started howling at the soldiers on the city wall of Guangming City, each of them was not a good thing.

"These fools, think that we can't form a phalanx for ourselves. Your shields are all placed in the front. The defense in the front is indeed very strong. Even if you use a crossbow to attack, you may not be able to fight. No clothes, but now our troops are on both sides of you, and there is no protection on both sides of yours. Do you think that there are no organs because there are mountains on both sides? It’s really stupid. Let you see how powerful human intelligence is.

The archers on both sides stood up immediately after receiving the order, and they all roared at the same time. A group of savages who were howling towards the city wall were dumbfounded. What kind of protective equipment is this? The stone weapons wanted to get rid of these bows and arrows, but the final result was that they didn't have that ability at all. In the end, they all shot into their own bodies, and a large number of orcs began to fall, and each of them was very Not reconciled, I knew that these humans are very cunning, but I didn't expect them to be so cunning. I thought they expanded the city wall to be their last weapon, but I didn't expect them to extend here. Zhu Shan is in the bunker Seeing that a large number of orcs were shot to death, the soldiers on the city wall were so happy. Aren't these orcs still very rampant just now? How come a large phalanx was killed when they came up now? Soldiers never tire of cheating, archers They are not interested in fighting, and immediately retreated after seeing more than half of their casualties. The mountain became what it was just now, and all the places where they came out were closed. These organs are exquisite, and it is impossible for these orcs to understand. Let alone understand the matter, it will take a while for them to come up.

The unfavorable start made the orcs extremely angry. Originally, they thought of avoiding something, but they must have rushed up quickly, and they had to do something for their death. They stopped and continued to build. Their camp, as if the tens of thousands of dead orcs had nothing to do with them, quickly added another phalanx, but the distance between them was farther, and it was difficult to do anything to them even with the passages on both sides. It hurts, even the crossbow can't reach them, this is really strange, this is not like the style of these orcs, Zhu Shan also feels a little bit out of control.

It seems that these orcs have IQ overnight. One of the reasons why orcs are called orcs is that they have no IQ like wild beasts, but now it seems that they are different from before. Zhu Shan immediately repaired the book Feng Fa is going to the imperial capital. If it was before, Zhu Shan would definitely send a cavalry unit to fight against them. Anyway, they can't let them build the camp so easily, but today Zhu Shan feels something is wrong. , it is better not to go out.

"General, do we just watch them so presumptuously in front of our eyes?" A general felt very uncomfortable watching the orcs camping outside in full swing. In fact, everyone felt uncomfortable, even though they all felt Seeing the changes of these orcs, but they still hope to send cavalry out to kill for a while.

"Everyone has seen the situation today. They are different from the savages we met before. These people seem to have brains. I don't think they will come to die. Besides, our heavy cavalry go out After a head-to-head confrontation with them, the casualties can reach an astonishing one-to-one ratio, and our cavalry troops cannot be allowed to take risks when the enemy's situation is unknown." Zhu Shan's strategy is undoubtedly correct, and now he can only stand still and don't do anything else. Action, see what they want to do.

One night quickly passed in the tense confrontation between the two sides. When it was dawn, I finally saw the entire orc army clearly. There were more than four million troops, and basically all the troops of various races came. , the place more than 20 miles in front of Guangming City is full of their camps. There are people from the cattle clan carrying logs and starting to set up camps everywhere. People from other races start to explore the terrain everywhere. The place where the archers touched yesterday also has them. The wolves are wandering around. If the channel is opened again, they may be attacked by them. It was impossible for these orcs to have such a brain before. Everything made Zhu Shan and the others feel unsafe. Although the flesh skin of these orcs is still the same as before, and the bows and arrows can be shot through completely, but these people have brains, they actually picked up all the bows and arrows fired yesterday, and they gathered all the arrows. To melt these arrows, the officer Ou had to wear armor no matter what.

"咚咚咚..." The huge sound resounded throughout the scope of Guangming City. This is a stone drum of the king rhinoceros among the cattle clan. These percussion instruments made of stone make a very loud sound. Zhu Shan came to the bunker and saw that dozens of large stone drums were erected, and a large number of bull and bear warriors began to gather. Are they going to attack now?

"General, catapults." A lieutenant saw dozens of huge things being pulled out in the distance. It's not that the empire doesn't have catapults, but our catapults are all made of wood, but those people's catapults They are all made of stones, and they are much larger than the catapults in Guangming City. If someone uses that, it is probably impossible to push it, but this is simply too much for the perverted strength of the orcs. For children, this is their most powerful siege weapon. In the past, there were at most a dozen of them, but this time there are hundreds of them. Take them all out, do they want to fight to the death with humans?

It turns out that the catapults of the orcs are also made of wood. The wood on their side is all small wood. The tall wood does not lower the height of Guangming City so that people who come behind them can go up. This is the front attack. The people of the Bull Clan and the Bear Clan know very well that behind the Bull Clan and the Bear Clan is an army of tens of thousands of wolves. When it comes to combat capabilities, the wolves are the most powerful. There are 10,000 wolf soldiers. It is estimated that the empire will need to lose 20,000 heavy infantry to defeat them all. If they also have armor on their bodies, 100,000 may not be able to defeat them.

"Let these damn humans see what we are capable of. We orcs are going to rule this continent. Launch." As a white rhino yelled loudly, dozens of huge rocks flew towards the city wall of Guangming City. After passing by, it is a pity that none of them hit the city wall of Guangming City. These orcs are too brainless. They can't remember where they started their attack before, so all these dozens of stones It fell in front of Guangming City, and half of the stones hit their own people. Their first attack was very unsatisfactory, and hundreds of people were killed or injured. The two square formations in front, one from the bull clan and the other from the bear clan The casualties were the most serious. They cursed those useless white rhinos vigorously. Their accuracy was so bad. Even if one of them was shot, it would be considered your skill. Yes, their voluntary labor made the soldiers on the city wall very happy, and some soldiers even whistled at these wild men, saying that they bother you, I love you so much, so they continue to throw your catapults like this Come on, we stretched our necks and waited for you. Even General Zhu Shan in the bunker laughed. It seems that these orcs are not here to fight, but to act.

"Bastard, Ula, you bastard, tell your subordinates to hit me more accurately. You have one more chance. If your subordinates are still like this, I will kill you first." The leader of the Niu clan over there said The white rhino boss under him, the guy who gave orders just now, shouted, this guy is really stupid, if these white rhinos were not stronger, he would not use them at all, in fact, the smarter ones in the cattle clan It's the white rhino. Without them, they probably wouldn't be able to use these catapults. The white rhinos are responsible for making the catapult. It took tens of thousands of years of research to make it. These people's brains are indeed powerful. a little bit.

"I'm sorry, great king, it will definitely not happen this time." The white rhinoceros said in fear, there is no law in the wildlings, as long as the king wants to kill someone, it is very simple, as long as he moves Someone is going to kill someone just by talking.

"We all saw that our great king is already angry. If anyone still misses this time, I will tear him apart immediately." The white rhinoceros returned to his phalanx and said that they still have another chance to attack. The phalanx in front of the meeting is about to reach the bottom of the city wall. If they still can't hit, they can only hit their own self. If it was those wolves, they probably would have come to eat them.

It's just that this time General Zhu Shan won't give them any chance. This time, even fools know how to adjust. There will definitely be a lot of hits. Waiting to be beaten is not our style.

"Boys, let them see how the catapult works, launch it for me." Zhu Shan said with a smile, following his voice, hundreds of catapults on the city wall quickly threw stones went. (To be continued.
