Chapter 324 October Siege(1/2)
According to the attack frequency before the Yongye Army took the lead, when a new wave of soldiers comes in, their new round of attacks will arrive. They will conduct a new round of cleaning up the remaining soldiers, and then attack the soldiers who are preparing to go ashore.
Get back before the soldiers go into weakness.
Then another wave of effective forces came up to launch a new round of sniping.
But this time, the remaining soldiers from the previous wave had already built fortifications on the shoal, and the other party had no intention of launching any attack.
Only the rain of arrows was still falling sparsely.
"No, they are about to withdraw!" Akmeser finally lost his coldness and his expression changed slightly, "Attack, take the initiative, and be sure to entangle them."
The Kingsley family flag waved and gave the order to the soldiers on the shoal to attack proactively.
This confused the low-level officers on the front line for a while.
"Hell, are they giving blind orders? In this case, shouldn't we stick to it? How come they gave the order to take the initiative?"
"These bastards, can't they understand the situation? From the beginning to the end, they have been suppressing us and fighting. Now that the other party has not attacked forward, God has blessed us. They even ordered us to take the initiative to attack. Our numbers are not enough.
The other party stuffed it between his teeth."
"Isn't it because the order was wrong?"
"Yes, it is indeed an order to attack on all fronts, and it is to fight to the death."
"Fight to the death? Do they regard us brothers as human beings? We have already fought hard like this, and we still want to fight to the death? Are we brothers going to risk our lives here?"
The Kingsley family's command flag was waved several times in succession, and then the Kingsley family soldiers came out from behind the bunker sparsely and began to assemble.
The reason for their resistance was because they were frightened from top to bottom by the fierce offensive led by the Yongye Army.
If they don't attack us, it's a blessing from the true God.
Not to mention taking tens of thousands of people to attack the camp defended by the opponent's three major legions. Isn't this killing an egg with a stone?
But military orders cannot be violated, so they can only use this delaying tactic.
When they gathered together and launched a counterattack, it was already more than half an hour later. Akmesser on the dragon battleship was in a hurry and stamped his feet, but there was nothing he could do.
By this time, even the low-ranking officers of the Kingsley family noticed something was wrong.
Not only did the Yong Ye army leader delay in launching an attack, but also because the rain of arrows that had not stopped from beginning to end became increasingly sparse and stopped completely a quarter of an hour ago.
The entire battlefield was eerily quiet, with only the billowing smoke still rising.
After the Kingsley family burned down the reed swamp where the Yong Ye Army leader first hid.
The leader of the Yongye Army used another ingenuity to lift the incompletely burned log rafts in their direction.
The first is to clear obstacles, and the second is to use them to artificially create a fog of war so that the Kingsley family cannot observe their situation.
This is why the Kingsley family can't figure out which legion the Eternal Night Army will use to attack in the next wave, nor what tricks they are hiding behind them.
It's not that Akmesser didn't want to send people to clean up these obstructive things, but the problem was that they couldn't even stand on their feet, let alone send people to clean them up.
The previous method of setting fire to the reed marsh was not easy to use. After all, even dry logs were troublesome to burn, let alone that they were not dry and had been soaked in water for such a long time.
Has the other party already retreated?
Those low-ranking officers of the Kingsley family who sensed something was wrong came up with such speculations.
But the opponent still has the advantage, why would they retreat at this time?
Did Marshal Akmeser give the order to launch a full-scale attack at this time? Could it be that he had already guessed something? Or that he had prepared some back-up move and had already launched it?
The more I think about the last possibility, the more likely it becomes.
Akmesser's conduct style is rigorous, and it is impossible for him to be unprepared for being sniped when he lands.
Even if I was unprepared at the beginning and was sniped for such a long time, I would not fight to the end without thinking.
Perhaps a partial army had already been sent ashore not far away, and they could go around behind the enemy and attack from both front and rear.
The more I think about it, the more likely it is.
Because of their hesitation, they missed the best opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
"For the sake of the family, for the sake of glory, go for it!"
A low-level officer shouted loudly, raised his sword high, and led his team towards the enemy camp shrouded in fog.
"For the sake of the family, for the sake of glory, go for it!"
The other junior officers who reacted were not willing to be outdone and rushed to the front.
The area covered by black smoke is not large, and it only takes three seconds to rush through it while holding your breath.
In fact, many people already regretted it when they launched the charge.
After all, this is just my own guess. What if the enemy has created a confusing formation to lure them into taking the bait, and when they rush over, what if they are waiting for an airtight sword and shield formation?
Judging from the strategies and tactics revealed before the Yongye Army took the lead, this situation was not only possible, but also highly likely.
But the situation at hand no longer allowed them to hesitate. Even if they didn't want to rush forward, the people behind them would push them forward.
"call!"
These junior officers of the Kingsley family, who were imagining various possibilities in their minds, breathed a sigh of relief. The situation was not the worst one.
They faced an empty camp, and the last of the opponent's troops had already evacuated for who knows how long.
"kill!"
Another burst of shouts of killing came.
Groups of soldiers came out from the reeds on the side of the camp, which really shocked these Kingsley soldiers.
"Don't attack, we are one of our own and friendly forces!"
The low-ranking officers of the Kingsley family hurriedly restrained their soldiers.
Although these soldiers who had just emerged looked like clay monkeys, the flags they carried and the armor they wore were exactly the same as them. They all belonged to the Kingsley family's Eastern Army.
Their previous guesses were correct.
Akmesser indeed launched a double-line landing, sent a partial army, detoured back to the lower reaches, looked for a suitable place to land, and then attacked from the side to entangle them.
At that time, not only will the landing be successful or not, Akmeser also wants to take the opportunity to bite a piece of meat from the leader of the Yongye Army.
But I didn't expect that Yong Ye's military leader would be so vigilant and so decisive.
Akmeser has not yet received news that the partial troops are in position, so they have already withdrawn first.
Therefore, even if the entire Kingsley family's eastern expedition army had completely landed on the east coast, Akmesser was still not happy. After all, the heavy punch he had carefully prepared was completely hit in the air.
In the game with the leader of the Eternal Night Army, Akmesel felt like he was one step behind at every turn.
Their landing point was exposed and they were targeted by the opponent's sniper attack, which was not unexpected.
After all, the Donau River is suitable for large-scale army landing sites, and there are only a few, and there are even fewer options near Brother Port.
As long as the opponent keeps an eye on the movement direction of their army, it can be easily guessed.
It’s not like Akmesser has not considered dispersing landings across the board.
However, the danger of doing so is not much smaller. When the time comes, the crocodile tribesmen will be able to defeat them one by one without the Yongye Army leading the troops.
If we compare the number of people alone, the Kingsley family is still inferior to the local crocodiles.
It's easy to guess where the army will land, but it's not so easy for those who are partial to the army.
After all, the scale was small, and they landed randomly. Before receiving the message from the mountain eagle, Akmeiser didn't know where and when they landed.
How did the leader of the Yongye Army accurately estimate the arrival time of the Eastern Expeditionary Army?
Does the Yongye Army Leader really have the ability to conduct aerial reconnaissance?
Only in this way can we explain the reason why they are leading every step of the way.
All the Kingsley Family Expeditionary Force came ashore and plowed a ten-kilometer radius before Akmesser moved down from the dragon carcass battleship.
Without stopping, Akmeser took his personal guards and went straight to the station in front of the Yongye Army, hoping to learn more about his opponent from here.
This first confrontation had allowed him to fully understand the differences between the Yongye Army Leader and the Crocodile Tribe people.
Although the Crocodile Tribe's army is huge, it will only be that much when it comes to fighting.
In the previous bloody battle at the mouth of the Kirigakure Lake, their elites had suffered heavy losses, and their spines had been completely broken.
It is difficult to organize another bloody battle like before.
The confrontation just now also illustrates this point. From beginning to end, it was the Yongye army leader who charged in the front, while the Crocodile tribesmen only provided long-range support from behind.
Although the number of the Yongye Army's leading troops is not large, their elites are formidable, regardless of their equipment or training level.
There is no need for more such armies, if only there are two more.
There is simply no way to fight this battle.
Even if the Kingsley family and the Commons family unite, there is no possibility of swallowing up the Swamp of Despair.
At best, they can rule across the river with the Yong Ye army leader, each occupying one side. This is still relying on the Commons family fleet.
However, this possibility is almost zero.
