Chapter 393: The main city in the west gathers(1/2)
The soldiers of the Sanghai Empire fell into madness under the influence of the tribal wizard hero, braved the rain of arrows from the Han army and threw stones down, and dozens of Han soldiers fell from the ladder!
Le Jin held up a shield, and stones rolled down above the city wall and were hit by stones. Even if the shield is equipped, it may die.
The fanatical indigenous soldiers fought back. They held large shields wrapped in cowhides and formed a second wall on the city wall to resist the rain of arrows from the Han army.
The tribal spearmen held up sharp spears and stabbed the Han soldiers who were trying to climb the city to death!
The existence of tribal wizard heroes greatly enhances the fighting will of tribal soldiers. Although the equipment of these tribal soldiers is inferior, they are strong in physiques. After falling into a state of fanaticism, they will have stronger physiques and burst out with powerful combat power!
This is the unique ability of barbarian civilization!
"It seems that the heroes of the Sanghai Empire have played a role. Their heroes are basically fictional heroes, but they have special abilities. This ability is a bit similar to the Yellow Turban Generals, and is a little different. The heroes can also strengthen the body of the troops."
As a prince who was on the line of peasant uprising army, Zhang Dao knew the effect of fanaticism best. He saw at a glance that the army of the Sanghai Empire had entered a state of fanaticism, and then he temporarily blocked the Han army's offensive with his strong city walls.
"We know too little about American and African civilizations. As barbarian civilizations, their abilities have exceeded history."
Chu Tian believes that in history, when the Han Empire encountered the Sanghai Empire, it would be one-sided slaughter unless the other party had a harsh natural environment. However, in "Lord", the special heroes of the Sanghai Empire strengthened the combat effectiveness of the Sanghai Empire Legion and balanced.
However, the lord of the Sanghai Empire was facing five powerful princes of the Han Empire!
The key to breaking the deadlock is to siege the tower!
Xue Rengui was wearing white clothes and white armor, standing on the siege tower, holding a king-level longbow in his hand. His eyes were on the wizard on the city wall. That hero was the greatest reliance of the lord of the Sanghai Empire. The wizard could provide a large amount of bonus for the soldiers of the entire tribe!
The king-level longbow was tight and the bow body was trembling violently. It seemed that even a longbow of this quality could not withstand Xue Rengui's strength.
The great wizard of the Sanghai Empire inspired the entire army, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis. He suddenly looked up at the siege tower. His hoarse throat issued an order: "Protect me!"
The heavy infantry of the tribal nobles around the great wizard held a large shield and quickly formed a shield wall!
Before the heavy infantry of the Sanghai Empire formed the second shield wall, Xue Rengui shot a shocking arrow, the king-level longbow screamed, and the tough bowstring broke!
An arrow passed like a white horse, and an armor-breaking arrow shot through the large shield. He ignored the protection of the infantry and killed the great wizard of the Sanghai Empire with one arrow!
The great wizard looked at the arrow feathers that were in his chest, coughed violently, and vomited blood. His eyes were covered with bloodshot, and a king-level hero with special abilities was shot to death by an arrow.
"The great wizard died like this?"
The chief of the Sanghai Empire looked at the siege tower in fear. A general of the Han Empire took action and killed the great wizard with one arrow! Such a terrifying archery technique was simply terrifying!
Dong, Dong, Dong!
The second war drum sounded among the Han army, which made people excited!
Liang Hongyu beats the drums herself, and her ability can restore morale to the entire army!
The Han army that was sieging the city was motivated, and their morale rose sharply, and they rushed forward bravely!
The defenders of the Sanghai Empire fell into chaos because of the great wizard being killed. After losing the fanatical effect, the Han army was pressing on the whole line!
Wang Tieqiu took the opportunity to board the first place. He swept the defenders with an iron spear, and the hundred-pound iron spear directly killed several indigenous soldiers! Dozens of indigenous people retreated backwards, in a mess!
Dian Wei held two iron halberds in his hand, and killed an enemy with one halberd, and his thick arms slammed a tribal hero to death!
The vine armor army climbed the city, and the indigenous spearmen stabbed the vine armor, but they could not penetrate the solid vine armor, but were beheaded by the vine armor army! The indigenous soldiers of the Sanghai Empire knew nothing about the shortcomings of vine armor. In their eyes, the vine armor sabers were invulnerable!
The Yellow Turban Long held a big knife in his hand, treating death as if it were alive, and slashed into the natives, blood splattering!
Zhao Yun, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Liao and the Shooting Camp's magic archers shot arrows in the siege tower, condescending to the heights, and many defenders were killed in battle.
Under the fierce offensive of the Han army, the chief of the Sanghai Empire finally lost his courage and prepared to withdraw from the national war.
The arrow was like a meteor, and Xue Rengui shot another arrow and shot the chief of the Sanghai Empire!
The lord of the Sanghai Empire who was unable to escape had his pupils dilated and he fell to the ground.
The Han army fully controlled the city walls. The heroes of the Sanghai Empire who had lost their lords led the defenders to resist. The Han army killed more than 10,000 natives and captured tens of thousands of prisoners!
"Is this Liang Hongyu?"
Zhang Dao, Xu Fengnian, Huo An, and Mu Ke noticed that the woman who beat the drums in the siege battle, and her ability to inspire the morale of the entire army made people think of Liang Hongyu, a heroine who blocked the Jin army in Huang Tiandang.
Chu Tian cannot deny that Liang Hongyu's ability can have unexpected effects when used at critical moments, but it can only be used three times a month, so you have to save money in the future.
This siege was just a training for troops. In the face of the powerful combat power of the Han army, the city of the Sanghai Empire could not even be held on for a day.
Chu Tian captured tens of thousands of natives of the Sanghai Empire and incorporated them into the vassal army as cannon fodder for this national war. In addition, Chu Tian also captured dozens of heroes from the Sanghai Empire, including tribal wizards, witch doctors, tribal nobles, warriors, etc., which can provide a large amount of bonus for the troops of the Sanghai Empire. However, the disadvantage of barbarian heroes is that they only have a small bonus for the troops of other civilizations, which is far less than the heroes of the Han Empire civilization themselves.
For the heroes of the Sanghai Empire, Chu Tian asked them to command the captured Sanghai Empire army and be commanded by Joan of Arc.
Originally, Chu Tian thought that the lord of the Sanghai Empire would choose to withdraw from the national war, but he did not expect that the unlucky chief was shot and killed by Xue Rengui. As a result, all his subordinates were trapped in the national war battlefield and became Chu Tian's prisoner. This was also a big gain.
"Lord, what should we do with these people?"
Le Jin, who had first arrived, brought dozens of women of the chief.
Chu Tian widened his eyes. The chief of the Sanghai Empire who died in battle was living a good life. He even had to bring dozens of women to participate in the national war. But Chu Tian didn't have any.
Chu Tian said to Cao Cao: "Meng De, how about rewarding these dozens of them to you?"
Cao Cao glanced at the woman of the chief of the Sanghai Empire and coughed repeatedly: "I really don't have a good time..."
The Eastern Army captured a city, the Central Army, and Lu Bu descended to the city, killed more than a dozen heroes of the Sanghai Empire in a row, shocked the enemy, Guan Yu killed three wizards, and blood splashed on the city wall! The chief of the Sanghai Empire collapsed and withdrew from the national war!
The Western Route Army, the powerful generals Chang Yuchun, Murong Ba, and Zhou Dewei destroyed the enemy formation, and the Han army flattened the city in front of them!
Three of the five cities of the Sanghai Empire fell!
The chiefs of the other two cities did not dare to support them at all, so they fled to avoid the Han army's troops.
A powerful civilization in West Africa collapsed instantly under the powerful offensive of the Han Empire.
The three Han troops obtained supplies in the city and recruited troops.
"Give me some time, I want to explode the soldiers."
Zhang Dao, a prince from Hanzhong, planned to use his ability to quickly recruit 50,000 peasant uprising troops to make up for the losses of the Han army.
Chu Tian chose Zhang Dao and Mu Ke. Although they were not strong among the many princes of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they all had their own special abilities.
"The Han army destroyed the Sanghai Empire!"
"The Han army stayed for several days and continued to march eastward!"
The Persian Empire's army gathered and recruited a group of low-level troops, bringing the strength to more than 200,000. They always pay attention to the movements of the Han Empire's expeditionary army.
The powerful Sanghai Empire in Africa was unable to withstand the offensive of the Han Empire's army, and the Han army was destroyed.
The nobles of the Persian Empire looked at each other. They followed the Han army but had no courage to attack.
The 200,000 Persian army faced 500,000 Han troops, and their chances of victory were extremely low whether they attacked head-on or attacked.
"Is this main city going to be taken away by the Han Empire? Our Persian Empire is so unlucky to be adjacent to the Han Empire."
Ardashir, the first lord of the Persian Empire, looked solemn.
The Han Empire attacked the Sanghai Empire just a small attempt.
A team of Goryeo cavalry came on horseback, and Goryeo lord Cui Zaishun came to meet Ardashir: "That civilization has promised to join forces with us. If we join forces, we will have hope to compete for the main city. Otherwise, eight out of ten main city will be owned by the Han Empire."
Ardashir unexpectedly looked at the Eastern Lord in front of him, and he could actually convince the crazy civilization.
"Let the Han Empire see the combat power of our Persian immortals, Parthian heavy cavalry and archers. The entire army continues to follow the Han Empire Expeditionary Force!"
Two hundred thousand Persian troops were in the northern part of the Han army, and were parallel to the Han army, waiting for an opportunity to act.
The army was marching, and sandstorms rolled. In addition to the Han Empire, the Persian Empire, the Sanghai Empire, the Goryeo Kingdom, and other civilizations were also marching in the Gobi Desert.
"Stop!"
Caterina wore a European officer's uniform from the Firearm Age, holding a single-barrel telescope in her hand, observing the enemy marching in the Gobi.
In the vast Gobi Desert, the Ottoman Empire's 100,000 Sipahi cavalry marched between the mountains. The Sipahi cavalry was the Ottoman military feudal landlord cavalry, divided into light cavalry using Turkic bows, heavy cavalry wearing chain mail and spears. The Jenicheri Legion and the infantry composed of the servants' corps are majestic and raise yellow sand.
The Ottoman army also discovered the army of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, and the Sipahi cavalry were on guard.
The civilization represented by the Grand Duchy of Moscow and the civilization represented by the Ottoman Empire were both deadly enemies in history.
"That was the army personally commanded by Suleiman I of the Ottoman Empire. The force was extremely strong. If possible, please do not provoke them. The Sipahi Cavalry and the Jenicherri Legion, they are excellent cavalry and infantry."
Catherine's adjutant Sofia reminded.
"Their target should be the main city in the west, follow them and wait for an opportunity to attack."
Catherine did not rashly fight the Ottoman Empire.
Suleiman I was not only the Sultan (Emperor) of the Ottoman Empire, but also an imperial hero. He had two elite standing legions, which was extremely terrifying.
The Ottoman Turkish Empire was once a great empire that dominated the Mediterranean, which made the whole of Europe scared of talk. If Vienna had not blocked the Ottoman Empire's military front and the beginning of the industrial revolution in Europe, Europe would have been shrouded in the shadow of the Ottoman Empire.
It is worth mentioning that the Ottoman Empire monopolized trade between the East and the West, and Europe had to open up new routes and began the era of great navigation.
The Ottoman Empire was a powerful civilization in West Asia, far above the Sanghai Empire in West Africa.
The Ottoman Empire's Sultan came to the national battlefield in person, and Caterina did not dare to fight the Ottoman Empire easily.
According to her judgment, the Ottoman army targeted the main city in the west.
Sofia suggested: "When the Ottoman Empire takes over the main city in the west, we can attack the main city in the north. Our infantry all have war horses, and it is easy to travel a hundred miles a day. Even if we turn to attack the main city in the north, we will not waste time."
"No, we are going to grab the main city in the west. When the Ottoman Empire fights with other civilized armies, we will enter the battlefield and destroy them all!"
Caterina put down her monocular lens with her eyes sharp.
