Chapter 741: A battle to determine the outcome
"You can't bear to leave your children and can't trap the wolf. You also know that our guild doesn't have much military expenditure. Once the storage funds are really burned, Linhai City will be really finished."
Lu Chen shook his head gently. He had just started using the strategy of repeated charges and retreats, just to attract the enemy's attention, and then let Zhong Yan lead the army down the mountain road on the other side of Zijing Mountain to see if he could attack the other side of the enemy's camp.
Holding the camp will lead to lower morale, and players who cannot earn military merit will become more and more passive and slackening, and even begin to disobey. The 200,000 army in the camp will only be members of the wolf clan, but none of the others will be.
So Lu Chen must first give them some sweetness and a small victory, so that people can know that it is right to follow him to get along with the poisonous wolf. But facing the 300,000 Thunder players who only plan to defend the mountain, it is not that easy to win.
Breaking the camp is nothing. The enemy camp is already simple. If you pay the price of 10,000 deaths, it is hard to say whether Lu Chen wins or loses. At least, the enemy has earned more merits than Lu Chen. But Lu Chen has achieved a strategic goal, that is, break the camp and prevent the enemy from building the camp well.
"Wang Shaoning has increased his troops!"
While observing the enemy's movements, Ying Zai kept receiving news from his subordinates.
There are three mountain roads facing the Rote City on Zijing Mountain. Compared with many narrow mountain roads, they are wide, and on average twenty or thirty meters wide. When Lu Chen led a 30,000 army down the mountain, he only walked one of the passages, but when he retreated, his troops were divided into three groups.
Wang Shaoning was naturally divided into three groups, but he was afraid that Lu Chen would lead the army to retaliate and then charge from top to bottom. So he transferred another 180,000 troops from the camp and divided into three groups to chase and kill the defeated soldiers. Only 20,000 people were left in the camp.
Anyway, the camp with only one wall and thousands of small tents is not valuable and can be made again in a few hours.
"Twenty-eight thousand people walk three twenty meters wide roads..." Lu Chen frowned, then shook his head affirmatively, "They must have some of their troops going around, it's too messy, we can't see clearly."
Twenty-eighty thousand people rushed out, feeling like they were going to surround the mountain. In this case, mobilizing tens of thousands of people to go up the mountain from the back mountain can easily deceive the scouts of the wolf clan. The chaos will make the scouts at a loss.
"Here! President, you are right. Once Wang Shaoning feels that there is an opportunity, he will definitely mobilize troops from the siege troops." Ying Zai received the news and punched excitedly.
Half an hour ago, when Lu Chen saw from the movements of the enemy camp that Wang Shaoning did not want to stick to the camp, he began to design Wang Shaoning.
Three round trips were not in vain. At least Lu Chen saw clearly the mobilization of Wang Shaoning's army through charge. Ying Zai's subordinates were condescending and saw the 500-man regiment arranged to 50 locations, the tens of thousands or even 100,000 troops after 50 500 regiments, and the 60,000 troops who returned to the camp after leaving the camp.
Seeing something wrong with the 50 500-man group, Lu Chen became suspicious. When he became suspicious, he noticed the fifty piles of earth and stones piled behind the camp wall. Then he was sure that there might be something under the pile of earth and stones. It might be a blasting trap or a large equipment.
The result was a crossbow. Although Lu Chen had expected it, he had no intention of dealing with it. Therefore, the formation of the army was easily messed up. With the army running down the mountain at full speed, Lu Chen had two choices at that time. One was to rush to the camp without caring about anything, and the other was to divide the army into two and escape from the left and right sides of the camp wall, just like going down the mountain to sightsee and then go back.
In either case, Wang Shaoning would choose to go out to fight. Because Lu Chen's army's aura was frustrated, players at the bottom would think that there was a problem with their side and were at a disadvantage. Then when they fought, they would choose to protect themselves more without attacking with all their strength.
Lu Chen chose to rush the camp directly. In this case, he could cause some trouble for Wang Shaoning, such as setting fire to delay a few minutes. In a few minutes, the surviving more than 20,000 troops could retreat hundreds of meters.
When the army is in operation, all kinds of professions must be equipped, so there are naturally players with turtle speed professions. With these people, and the mountain road is not wide enough, it would be great if Lu Chen could get the army to get rid of the pursuers for hundreds of meters in a few minutes.
"The order will finally take action. After fighting this battle, we will not owe any players in Rote City..." Lu Chen asked the messenger to release the offensive signal.
"I didn't owe anything..." Ying Zai muttered, and then issued various orders to the intelligence department staff and scouts according to the plan. For example, letting the internal forces create chaos, letting the scouts expand the reconnaissance scope to the designated direction, etc.
"Ha...we are overlords of the Duke of Abelian. If we cannot protect the scattered players in the territory, why should they respect our status?" Lu Chen rolled his eyes, then drew out his sword and directed the army to retaliate.
During the escape, the slow knight and shield warriors fell behind. Lu Chenyi directed the retaliation, and the players who could not save their lives turned to form a shield formation, and then the mages with short legs began to fight back below.
"The Zijing Mountain camp was burned down by my order. Everyone obeyed the order and immediately turned around and attacked the enemy camp at all costs! Only by seizing the enemy camp can we resist the enemy reinforcements and wait for our reinforcements to arrive!"
Lu Chen's voice was conveyed to the entire army through the magic horn, and then the players who were only escaping for life saw the ongoing Zijing Mountain camp. He shouted this sentence seven or eight times before he stabilized the vanguard army, which had been chased to the point where only 16,700 people were left.
The army began to retaliate, and its condescending advantage was still there. After the beginning, it stopped and was killed by the enemy and killed thousands of people, Lu Chen's army quickly stabilized its position. The main reason why Lu Chen's 30,000 vanguard army was defeated so badly was that he did not command much, which also paralyzed Wang Shaoning.
Wang Shaoning was very cautious at the reminder of the think tank, but he stayed behind. When several senior officials ordered to chase him, they relaxed their vigilance when they saw that the enemy was as easy as a lamb. After they chased for two kilometers, the military formation was completely in chaos. The fast-speed thieves, archers, swordsmen and other professions were all concentrated in the front, and the profession ratio was very unbalanced.
So when Lu Chen's army retaliated, except for the setback when he first stopped, he was simply out of control!
The shield warrior holding a large shield may kill several people. The knights and berserkers are even more vigorously going down the mountain, easily reaping their merits.
After setting fire on the mountain, he led the remaining 170,000 troops and began to charge down the mountain in three groups.
