Reincarnation Paradise: There are vests everywhere

Chapter 2206: Conquering Shahe City

The war begins.

The mechanical Zerg army surged out from the depths of the quicksand like a torrent woven of steel and darkness. These were the vanguard of the mechanical Zerg army.

The vanguard of the mechanical insects surged from all directions like a tide. They were a "sea of ​​insects" composed of countless tiny and precise mechanical units. Some of these mechanical insects were shaped like cockroaches, with hard shells and sharp cutting blades; others were like giant scorpions, with deadly stingers dragging from their tails.

With a deafening roar, the mechanical insect army launched a charge. Countless mechanical insect bodies rushed towards the well-defended Shahe City like a black tide. They wove a dense net in the air, and each insect body was like a node on the net, cooperating seamlessly with each other, showing amazing coordinated combat capabilities.

As the defending side, the Sand Flame Nation's defenders used all kinds of city defense weapons. Arrows, kerosene and other war weapons could not stop or even slow down the mechanical Zerg army's attack.

Soon, part of the mechanical insect army climbed onto the city wall, and the mechanical insects engaged in close combat with the Sand Flame Nation warriors in Sand River City. The mantis-shaped mechanical insects waved their sharp forelimbs and engaged in a fierce battle with the Gray Soul warriors. Every collision was accompanied by the sound of metal breaking and sparks flying.

The spider-like mechanical insects used their agility to quickly shuttle across the battlefield, looking for weaknesses in the defenders. Sometimes they climbed on the walls of Sand River City, trying to destroy its structure; sometimes the warriors of Sand Flame Country launched a surprise attack, making it difficult to defend against.

Lin Jiu heard even heavier noises. After the mechanical Zerg vanguard completely surrounded Shahe City, the main force of the mechanical Zerg arrived and began to show its true strength. The huge Thor Zerg units were like mobile fortresses. They had heavy armor and powerful firepower systems. Every time they fired, there was a deafening roar and dazzling flames.

Dazzling beams of energy shot out from their weapons, instantly piercing through the wall defenses of Sand River City and directly hitting its main structure. With a deafening explosion, the walls of Sand River City began to collapse, and the Sand Flame Nation warriors, as the defenders, fell into despair.

"Kill!" After the city wall collapsed, Lin Jiu raised his spear and pointed it in the direction of the city. He led the cavalry regiment to charge forward. The basic mechanical Zerg engineers laid a solid "railway" on the quicksand, and the cavalry rushed into Shahe City without any hindrance.

【Due to the war...】

……

The mechanical Zerg under Lin Jiu's command slaughtered all the people in Shahe City, carrying away the metal objects in the city, the weapons on the battlefield, and the remains of their companions.

They just left the food in Shahe City. As an important defensive city not far from Shadu, Shahe City had a lot of food stored in it, which was enough for Lin Jiu's army to eat for a few months.

Soon, the mechanical Zerg army that had destroyed Shahe City to such an extent evacuated or burrowed into the yellow sand. After about half a day, there was no trace of a single mechanical Zerg around Shahe City.

Afterwards, Lin Jiu asked his men to spread the news that he had captured Shahe City. Lin Jiu discovered that the Shayan Kingdom had sent hundreds of thousands of war beasts to the front line to support Su Xiao's campaign. When Su Xiao had almost formed a beast cavalry corps, it would be time to enter the Kingdom of Peru.

He had not made any big moves before, not because he did not have the ability, but because he was afraid that the noise would be too loud and would destroy Su Xiao's Beast Riders. Even without the help of the mechanical Zerg army, relying on the battlefield destructive power of Winnie's transformation into an ancient dragon, it would not be a problem to attack the city at a cost.

Su Xiao was indeed waiting for follow-up support. The Battle of Peru Gate was a great victory, and Su Xiao wanted to directly enter the Kingdom of Peru. However, after this battle, he only had 12 soldiers left, and more than 8 died in the battle. Compared with the 19 deaths of the dwarf troops, this number of casualties was already a big victory.

The individual combat effectiveness of his soldiers is indeed strong, but the dwarves also have elite troops. The Ram Cavalry Regiment is the toughest bone to chew. Of the 8 soldiers killed in the battle, more than 3 died at their hands.

This was when Lin Jiu took away 5 Ram Cavalry Regiment. The Ram Cavalry Regiment only had 4 men. Before the dwarves were about to be defeated, Spring Iron Sheep ordered the Ram Cavalry Regiment to retreat. The advantage of the cavalry was reflected at this time. The Ram Cavalry Regiment withdrew more than 1 men, and about were killed in the battle.

If he wants to invade Peru, these alone are not enough. Su Xiao does not want Shayan's elite troops, and Shadu will not give them to him. He needs heavy shield soldiers who can resist the charge of the ram troops, or get a large number of war beasts and heavy armor, and arm the existing 12 soldiers into heavy armored beast cavalry. If he can achieve this, he is confident that he can lead 12 beast cavalry to invade Peru.

Taking 12 soldiers to invade Peru now is not bravery, but courting death. Once they enter Peru, they will not only have to face the defenders in front, but also the dwarf troops coming from the rear.

Otherwise, on the cold weapon battlefield, cavalry is king. Take the Ram Cavalry Regiment as an example. If they want to retreat, they will charge and break through once, and then retreat. The infantry and light shield soldiers cannot catch up at all. It is true that the soldiers have gray souls in their bodies, but so do the war sheep. When the two sides are pulled to the same level, the two-legged ones really can't outrun the four-legged ones.

Does Sand Flame have no troops corresponding to the Ram Cavalry? The answer is yes, the Beast Cavalry is it. It's not that the Tsar is stingy, nor that the High Priest has no overall view. The Beast Cavalry cannot be moved. They are stationed at the edge of the Ataro Desert in the central battlefield and are the last bastion of a certain area.

Yes, it was the line of defense that Lin Jiu had forcefully torn apart. Once they were deployed, the Peruvian dwarf army would march straight into the territory of the Sand Flame Kingdom just like Lin Jiu's army. The trouble caused by Lin Jiu's cavalry regiment of less than 50,000 people entering the territory of the Sand Flame Kingdom was already not small. If the regular Peruvian army broke through this line of defense, the result could be imagined.

However, Su Xiao was not worried that the Tsar, Uno and Carlos would not send soldiers and resources. He had already breached the Gate of Peru. If those three did not express their opinions, it would surely discourage the other commanders-in-chief.

At the same time, the situation on the central battlefield changed. In the area around Segona City, all the dwarf troops withdrew from the territory of the Sand Flame Kingdom overnight. These territories were conquered by the dwarf troops in previous wars, and now they could only retreat to several fortress cities on the same level as Segona City.

These dwarf troops had to retreat. What they originally occupied was actually the fortress city of Shayan. After the Gate of Peru was breached, Su Xiao's troops were like a nail separating these dwarf troops from the Kingdom of Peru. Once the war broke out, these fortress cities would be besieged from the front and back by Su Xiao and Niposo's troops.

This allowed our troops to easily recover large tracts of territory. According to conservative estimates, one-tenth of the territory that had been occupied over the years was recovered tonight. This is not a small amount. This territory is enough to feed more than 400 million civilians.
