Chapter 365: Strength of Silver Players(1/2)
As the night became darker, the fire was still lit up in the combat conference room of the Gear City military camp.
Looking at the post-war report in front of him, Hua Ye's brows were locked together as if he couldn't control it.
Under normal circumstances, after a fierce siege battle, the casualties of the siege troops should be much greater than the defender.
However, the fact is completely inconsistent with what Huaye expected. During the post-war cleaning of the battlefield, it was found that the number of corpses of enemy soldiers was much less than he expected!
"Iron tool."
Hua Ye was holding an enemy soldier's helmet in his hand. At the moment he bought it, he could clearly feel a metal texture.
According to the craftsmen in the city, the enemy was wrapped in a layer of iron on the armor.
This approach is not complicated, but it effectively increases the defense capabilities of these armors.
This is the main reason why the number of casualties on the other side is so small in this battle.
And this is true. Andretov pays great attention to the soldiers' defense ability, or the ability to survive on the battlefield.
After all, a soldier can only create value when he is alive.
If you die, you will lose any value.
It is precisely because of this concept that the troops under his command are basically dominated by shield soldiers.
At the same time, although it was already night, the invaders' outdoor camp was still bright.
The engineers who went out with the army were repairing the damaged siege equipment during the day overnight, and the medical soldiers were also treating the wounds for the injured soldiers.
The heavy armor was taken off from the camp. At this time, Andretov was eating military rations and frowned at the casualties report in his hand.
The casualties in this first round of siege were even higher than he expected.
The firepower of the city defense opposite is indeed a bit fierce.
This time I might have picked a hard bone.
However, this first game was just a tentative outpost battle for him.
While touching the opponent's background, his purpose is to consume the opposite city guard resources.
This is a war with a limit of one month.
The eyes should be slightly longer and we should calculate step by step.
What's more, it's useless that he has a killer weapon in his hand.
In the next few days of attack, Andretov could be said to be unhurried and fully demonstrated the level that an experienced driver in the silver rank should have.
In seven days, the result of the three rounds of siege battles made Hua Ye's mood more and more serious.
He had realized that the other party was deliberately consuming their city-defense resources.
Hua Ye concluded that the guys outside the city must have a backup plan.
After the resources to defend the city in their city were consumed, the opponent's trump card should probably be used!
It’s just that such a conspiracy is simply unavoidable.
Fortunately, he is not without trump cards on his side.
Besides, he is not fighting alone.
The wolf smoke has been released, and after a while, reinforcements from the rear will arrive.
Andretov fought three consecutive invasion battles, but at this time he still looked calm.
Although there were obvious casualties in his army during the attack this week, the losses were still within his tolerance.
Since we are going to fight an invasion, we obviously need to have this psychological preparation.
As long as he can successfully break through the city in front of him, he can also plunder the resources and population in the city while winning the invasion.
Such a large city requires at least hundreds of thousands of people.
Such a large amount of cheap labor is enough to further the development of his civilization!
Thinking of this, Andretov felt relieved.
After calculating the time, he turned to a personal guard beside him and said, "Send the order to rest for a day tomorrow, and start the day after tomorrow to continue to attack the city!"
Before the siege began, Andretov saw the burning wolf smoke on the head of the gear wall.
After calculating the time, the reinforcements on the opposite side should have been on the way.
After consuming a few more waves of city defense resources on the opposite side, he should almost do it seriously.
Now turn your perspective to Daxia City.
Since the Ice Bear Country player invaded, Xia Qi has received several letters from Fengxiao from Gear City.
He roughly knew the situation on the front line.
An infantry unit composed of a large number of shield soldiers is characterized by balance of offense and defense, which is most appropriate to fight attrition.
And this is obviously the main purpose of the Ice Bear Country player.
Use a large number of shield soldiers to continuously attack the city, consume the city defense resources of his Gear City, and then see the opportunity to break the city in one breath.
Such a method is a typical conspiracy, and Huaye cannot see it, so Xia Qi was not particularly worried.
Reinforcements from Xiushui City and Goblin King City are already rushing towards Gear City. The reinforcements from the two cities have more than 6,000 troops together. With the advantage of the city wall, it is not so easy for Andretov to take advantage.
Gear City.
After a day of rest, the siege army under Andretov directly launched a continuous siege.
One day, two days, three days...
The fierce attacks of the Ice Bear Kingdom army did not give them a chance to breathe.
A large number of corpses had been piled up outside the Gear City, and after several days of sun exposure, a disgusting stench gradually emanated.
Maintaining this battle rhythm, after five consecutive days of siege, Andretov, who felt that the war of attrition had almost been fought, decisively opened his trump card.
Looking at the dark Ice Bear Kingdom army outside the city, Hua Ye’s face was extremely hard to see.
"Does this invader still have so many troops hidden in his hands?!"
Although he could not draw an accurate number based on his visual observation, after so many days of siege, the opponent's troops could still remain at a level of 7,000 to 8,000, which can already explain many problems.
At the same time, there were four additional tanks filled with metal armor plates in the opposite military formation.
Just looking at it can make people feel the other party's amazing defense clearly.
A large number of soldiers from the Ice Bear Kingdom pushed the four chariots towards the gate of the Gear City.
Judging from the situation, the other party probably planned to use the chariot to hit the city gate!
Hua Ye wanted to stop it, but the person who created the armored combat vehicle was obviously mentally prepared to let these four combat vehicles bear all fire strikes from the beginning.
The armor plates on it are so thick that they are scary.
Faced with the continuous hits of the Baniu Crossbow and the catapult, although the four armored combat vehicles were beaten beyond recognition, they were still pushing forward tenaciously with the overwhelming firepower.
"Qi You, go and guard the city gate!"
Hearing Hua Ye’s shout, Qi You, dressed in military uniform, rushed down the city wall quickly.
The battle of attrition that had been fought for more than ten days ago made the defending troops of Gear City consume a large amount of city defense resources. Now the firepower of this battle is no longer as fierce as before.
This is undoubtedly an opportunity for the soldiers of the Ice Bear Kingdom.
After narrowing the distance to a certain extent, they began to push the armored vehicle to hit the gate of Gear City!
Only a loud bang was heard, and the entire city wall began to shake.
The opportunity to break the city can be said to be right in front of you!
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
As the armored vehicles collided, the closed gate of Gear City began to rise slowly, which made Andretov, who was commanding the siege in the rear, frowned slightly.
"Are you planning to use the limited space in the city gate area to fight me in hand-to-hand combat?"
As this thought arose, Andretov's face sneered.
If this is true, then it can only be said that the opposite side is too naive. His four armored vehicles can rush into the city in one breath!
It would be a dream to trap him in the city gate area!
And just as Andretov was thinking this way, a roaring explosion suddenly came from the Gear City!
Then, before the soldiers of the Ice Bear Kingdom could react, a powerful impact directly hit the front of the armored car.
The front of the armored car, covered with armored plates, was almost smashed on the spot, and the entire armored car was bombed out.
The soldiers who were pushing the armored cart behind him had a miserable end. They were just knocked out and broke their bones and had their tendons broken. They were all lucky.
Many soldiers were killed by this impact by vomiting blood.
The amazing scene caused the battle at the city gate to fall into a dead silence in an instant!
"Oh, bastard, that's a hell!"
To be continued...
