Chapter 283 Western Theater

When Ningyuan launched the northern campaign, the western theater also fought a grand battle.

The Palace of the Gods has 850,000 troops in the western theater, and the main arms are humans, elves and werewolves.

The Shenying leader has less than 500,000 defenders in the Western Theater, of which 200,000 are stationed in Xiliang City, the Iron and Blood City, the Natural City and the Moonlight City each have less than 100,000 people, and the Golden Crow City is one. Empty city.

In the Western Theater, it can be seen at a glance that Xiliang City is much larger than the other cities and is the main city here.

As long as the city of Xiliang is captured, the western theater is basically captured, so the enemy directly launched a fierce attack on the city of Xiliang after gathering their troops.

Because of the absolute superiority in military strength, the enemy directly adopted the strategy of besieging the city. Except for the two armies defending the iron blood city and the natural city reinforcements, all the other armies were assembled under Xiliang City.

Because in the Western Theater, there were no assassins in the Palace of the Gods, they didn’t start the siege officially until the third day after the invasion.

The player leader of the Palace of Gods in the Western Theater is called Yin Dong, a player lord who has entered the age of empire.

In this invasion, Yin Dong brought an army of 150,000 people and an army of 100,000 elves. On the western theater side, his army had the largest number, so everyone directly led him.

When Yin Dong attacked the city, he adopted a tactic of besieging three and missing one.

The Western Allied Forces of the Palace of the King of Gods attacked Xiliang City from the west, north and south at the same time, venting directly to the east.

Yin Dong hopes that the defenders in the city can withdraw from there at a critical moment after seeing the vitality of the east, so that his western coalition forces can avoid encountering a defending army fighting to the end.

Yin Dong thought very well, but unfortunately, he met a formidable opponent-Baize Lion.

Although there are only 200,000 defenders in Xiliang City, because the enemies here are also some conventional arms, the Baize Lion can be said to be able to defend the city with ease.

In the Cold Weapon era, the most headache for the generals was the siege war, because with the strong city, as long as there is enough food and grass in the city, the defenders can easily hold the city for months or even years.

The most famous battles of defending the city were the battle of Chencang in the Three Kingdoms period and the battle of Xiangfan in the Song and Yuan dynasties.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang led tens of thousands of troops to besiege Chencang. Hao Zhao had only a thousand soldiers in the city, but with this thousand soldiers, Hao Zhao insisted on holding on for more than 20 days, and finally followed the enemy’s reinforcements. Upon arrival, Zhuge Liang had to choose to retreat.

During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty fought a six-year offensive and defensive battle around the city of Xiangyang.

During the period, Xiangyang City changed owners several times, and Fan City was later defeated. The Yuan army used the tactics of encircling and fighting aid to cut off Xiangyang City’s reinforcements. Xiangyang City’s defense finally chose to surrender after running out of ammunition and food.


From these two examples, it is not difficult to see how difficult it is to break a strong city if there is no special way.

Xiliang City, as the main city of the Western War Zone, has a wall of 20 meters high, and a large amount of food, grass and materials are stored in the city.

In addition, when Ning Yuan was building Xiliang City, he cut off the possibility of the enemy digging tunnels to attack the city, so the Western Allied Forces of the Palace of the Gods wanted to break through Xiliang City in a short period of time.

Although there are 200,000 defenders in the city, Baize Lion can easily hold Xiliang City, but just holding the city is not the result that Baize Lion wants. What he really wants is to wipe out this palace of the gods. The Western Allied Forces.

Everyone is right. Although there is a big gap between the enemy and our army, Baize Lion wants to annihilate this enemy army.

In order to consume the enemy’s vitality and morale as much as possible, Baize Lion directly hid half of the army when the enemy launched a siege.



In order to allow the enemy to always see the hope of breaking through the city, Baize Lion divided the remaining 100,000 defenders into three echelons, two of which took turns defending the city, and one echelon as a reserve team ready to support at any time.

More than 30,000 troops defended three walls, with an average of more than 10,000 people on each wall. Under the enemy’s fierce attack, the defenders on the walls underwent tremendous pressure. Although they killed a large number of enemy soldiers, they also let the enemy once. Attacked the head of the city this time.

After finding that the enemy had attacked the head of the city, Baize Lion immediately dispatched a third-echelon reserve team for reinforcements and suppressed the enemy again.

In this way, the enemy attacked the city again and again, and the reserve team cooperated with the defenders to beat them down again and again.

Every time it seemed to be just a sigh of relief, Xiliang City always gave the high-levels of the Western Allied Forces of the Palace of Gods an illusion that they could be breached at any time, and then they were firmly trapped here.

The five consecutive days of siege warfare made the enemy and the enemy very tired. Because it was the siege, the coalition forces in the western part of the Palace of Gods suffered more than 200,000 casualties.

Of course, the defenders of Xiliang City also suffered heavy casualties. Today, including the reserve team, there are more than 80,000 warriable soldiers in the city.

The casualty ratio of nearly one to ten is a good example of the advantage of the defender.

In these five days, the army of the Palace of the Gods has attacked the city’s head countless times, but every time they go up, they will be immediately beaten down by the defenders who suddenly reinforce them. Feeling extremely upset.

In order to be able to break through Xiliang City as soon as possible, they even used the tactics of exhaustion.

The armies of the humans and the elves are responsible for siege the city during the day, and the forces of the werewolves are responsible for the siege at night. They want to use this tactic to completely bring down the defenders in the city.

It is a pity that Baize Lion was prepared for this. The first echelon and the second echelon are directly divided into two shifts, which does not give the enemy any chance at all.

Tired soldiers tactics?

It’s not easy at all, because the soldiers put earplugs in their ears and eyes when they fall asleep, and after a day of fatigue, they all sleep very deeply.

Not to mention the sound of screaming and killing at the top of the city can not affect them, even if you use a big horn to yell near the barracks, I am afraid it will be difficult to wake them up.

Baize Lion knows the real situation in the city, but Yin Dong and others do not.

They always believed that Xiliang City would be breached as long as they worked harder, so even if the South Route Army sent someone to contact them and wanted to take down the Iron-Blooded City with them, they refused, because they were afraid if Stopping the siege will give the defenders in the city a chance to breathe.

For Yin Dong and others’ concerns, the player lords of the Southern Route Army expressed their understanding.

After all, the West Route Army has been attacking for five consecutive days, and even attacked the top of the city many times. It may be just like Yin Dong and others said, it was a breath away, so it is absolutely impossible to give the defenders in the city any opportunity to breathe. .
