Chapter four hundred, deadlock
When 400,000 Iron-blooded Flagmen soldiers arrived at the defense line of the Condor Heroes at the foot of Qianshan Mountain, the defense situation of the Condor Heroes immediately improved greatly.
Faced with the destruction of the hostile players down the mountain, the soldiers of the Big Banners came forward without showing any weakness, while the elves of the Condor Heroes only needed to shoot arrows behind them. With the soldiers of the Big Banners as meat shields, they no longer had to worry about being besieged by the enemy.
After discovering that the Iron Blood Flag Sect joined the camp of the Condor Heroes Empire, Lin Xiao immediately organized a large-scale raid to give the other party a warning.
Millions of players, Swordsmen rushed out from different directions in the Thousand Mountains, and rushed straight to the defense zone near the foot of the Eagle Empire.
Faced with the enemy's fierce attack, the players of the Iron Blood Flag Sect launched a counterattack without fear of death. They resisted the enemy's fierce attack and created a good output environment for the elves of the Eagle Army's elves.
This battle lasted from sunrise to sunset before it ended. The million-dollar player legion of the Eagle Hoof Empire was wiped out, and the big flag soldiers of the Iron Blood Flag Sect fought to the end, with less than 100,000 left.
Although the million players who died in the Eagle Hoof Empire will soon be resurrected, they still suffered heavy losses in this defeat, because this raid is very different from previous suicide attacks. Players attack with swords, and defeat means losing all their weapons.
Although the weapons used by the players are not of great quality, Ning Yuan is still very happy after seizing so many weapons at once.
In order to thank the soldiers of the Big Banner for their efforts, he not only sent a large amount of fine wine and food to reward the three armies, but also provided 300,000 magic potions to the Iron Blood Flag Sect free of charge, hoping to help those reborn Big Banner soldiers grow to their peak state as soon as possible.
After this failure, although players from Qianshan Mountains often go down the mountain to attack, it is difficult for them to achieve any decent gains.
Faced with this situation, Lin Xiao was also very helpless. Although they had an army of 200,000 orcs in the Qianshan Mountains, the main function of these 200,000 troops was to defend the mountains and restrain the army of the Condor Empire.
Although the army of the Condor Empire cannot reach the mountain now, their 200,000 orc army dare not conquer.
On the Thousand Mountains, the orc army has the advantage of geographical advantages, and the air advantages of the owl warriors are extremely huge. They can instantly form an absolute advantage in military strength on a certain mountain, and can easily circumvent the enemy's rear.
Once they go to the foot of the mountain, this advantage will disappear.
On the endless plain terrain, the elves of archers can easily catch up with them, and they will suffer heavy losses if they are not careful.
After losing a large number of wolf knights, the Eagle Hoof Empire was left with the high-powered troops of the Owl Legion, so Lin Xiao didn't dare to let them take risks easily.
Although this orc legion dared not go down the mountain easily, as long as they stayed on the mountain for a day, the elves of the Eagle Empire's elves archers would not dare to leave.
So even though there was no major breakthrough, Lin Xiao still allowed this legion to be stationed in the Qianshan Mountains for a long time, because it was able to restrain the enemy's annoying elves archery cavalry legion, which was also a victory.
Although Ning Yuan was not satisfied with this delicate situation, he had to temporarily choose to accept it due to his lack of strength. He was ready to fight a protracted battle with the enemy.
So in the Qianshan Mountains, the two armies fought more than ten times a day, fighting once or twice a month, maintaining a delicate balance.
Although the border areas of the Condor Empire are often harassed by the enemy, the Condor Empire still has an advantage in the overall situation, so Ning Yuan can accept the situation of maintaining a balance between the Thousand Mountains and the enemy, but in other places he cannot give the enemy time to breathe.
Now the Eagle Hoof Empire has adopted a defensive strategy of shrinking the entire line, and they are huddled in the area east of the Dongliao River to rest and recuperate.
Due to the existence of the Liaohe River and the Dongliao River, it was difficult for the cavalry regiment of the Condor Empire to advance to the area east of the Dongliao River.
In order to allow its cavalry to reach the orcs' royal city directly, Ningyuan assembled an army of 200,000 to launch a fierce attack on the orcs' heavy city, Shuangliao City, at the intersection of the West Liao River and the East Liao River.
As long as Shuangliao City is captured, the orcs' territory on the Northeast Plain will no longer have any natural dangers to defend, and no one can stop the cavalry regiment of the Condor Heroes from herding horses under the orcs' royal city.
As the most important line of defense within the Eagle Trooth Empire, Shuangliao City cannot be missed, so Lin Xiao arranged 100,000 defenders in Shuangliao City.
Ten thousand totem warriors, twenty thousand tauren warriors, ten thousand wild boar warriors, ten thousand bear warriors, twenty thousand owl warriors, twenty thousand werewolf warriors, and ten thousand leopard warriors.
From the composition of the soldiers guarding the city, we can see how much the orcs attach to Shuangliao City.
In order to reduce losses and to dampen the morale of the defenders in the city, Ning Yuan transferred a hundred stone catapults and launched a seven-day stone bomb attack on Shuangliao City regardless of the darkness and whiteness.
Only after the stone bombs brought over were exhausted did the Condor Heroes start to formally attack the city.
Although the stone bullet rain caused considerable casualties to the orc defenders in the city, it failed to hurt their morale.
When the Condor Heroes began to attack the city, the orcs vented the humiliation they suffered during these seven days on the siege soldiers. The enemy and us launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle around the city wall.
Although the Eagle Hoof Empire lacked long-range troops, they had an absolute advantage in terms of infantry.
The powerful Taurens and Bears defended the city, which was simply unstoppable. The siege soldiers of the Condor Heroes Army drove them down as soon as they attacked the city. They even attacked the siege tower with the floating bridge on the city.
Even the siege arrow tower, the most proud of the Condor Heroes, failed to gain any advantage in front of orcs.
When the orcs discovered that the elf rangers were sniping the defenders on the city wall on the siege arrow tower, teams of owl warriors immediately chose to take off. They braved the enemy's rain of arrows and rushed to the siege arrow tower and fought a desperate battle with the elf rangers on it.
Under the desperate attack of the owl warriors, a large number of siege arrow towers were taken down by the orcs.
After losing the firepower support from the siege arrow tower, it is even more difficult for the siege soldiers to rush to the top of the city.
After seeing the hope of siege, Ning Yuan had to choose to withdraw his troops and let the soldiers retreat.
Although the orcs suffered heavy losses in this siege battle, the Condor Heroes failed to get any advantage. Both sides were defeated.
After seeing the orc's ability to defend the city, Ning Yuan finally had to give up his plan to continue the attack.
Although he was very unwilling to give up, he could only choose to continue his stalemate with the orcs while guarding the current border line.
The current situation is that the Eagle Hoof Empire is afraid of the cavalry regiment of the Eagle Empire. They dare not divide their troops easily and dare not take the initiative to attack.
Ning Yuan was afraid of the infantry legion of the Eagle Hoof Empire, especially the ultimate military totem warrior of the Taurus clan, so he did not dare to start a head-on war easily.
The Eagle Hoof Empire needs time to rest, and the same is true for Ningyuan's Condor Empire.
The Korqin Prairie and Nuru Tiger Mountain areas have just been included in the territory of the Condor Empire. It will take a long time to completely digest the population and resources of these places.
