Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries.

Chapter 180 Night deployment, stage victory!
It can make the residents of the border of the empire feel afraid when they hear the reputation of the orcs. The strength of the orcs is beyond doubt.

Although facing Qingyuan Town, they retreated and suffered losses, but this did not mean that the orc army was weak.

On the contrary, it is already very strong that the orcs can still not collapse in the face of cross-age weapon attacks.

If it were a normal human army, if [-]% of the troops were destroyed, the morale of the army would start to collapse.

And the orcs are the only soldiers who can really fight to the end, of course, the situation of the extraordinary warlord behind them is also included.

The first batch of orcs were captured in Jinyuan City because there were no extraordinary warlords.

Moreover, these orcs had also attacked Qingyuan Town before, so they were very aware of the power of artillery. If they continued to resist at that time, the result would be a dead end.

Although they orcs also have their own integrity, it can only be displayed when facing opponents of the same class.

But Qingyuan Army, what is this?It's a machine gun and a cannon, it doesn't matter whoever fires it.

On the ancient stone city battlefield, although the orcs were outnumbered, they were still able to firmly control the entire city defense layout in their own hands.

When the imperial army and the orc army strangled together, the artillery lost its role.

As for equipment such as firearms and artillery, the only shortcoming problem is this. Once there are people on the front line who are entangled with the enemy, these weapons will lose their advantages.

After all, not all weapons come with infallible entry aids. If there is a slight deviation, it will hit one of your own, which is an act of supporting the enemy.

It was also after the orcs discovered this that they immediately commanded the army to keep advancing and entangled with the imperial army.

The more Imperial soldiers around, the safer they are.

Although it requires one to outnumber the enemy, this kind of battlefield is the one they are most familiar with and good at. Even in the face of several imperial soldiers, the orc soldiers can easily deal with it.

In this purely military contest, it is difficult for the four battalions of the Qingyuan Army to have nearly [-] people to exert their due advantages and effects.

However, under the first wave of attack and blocking, the Qingyuan army has created an unparalleled fighter for the imperial army, and the command of the imperial army is not a fool. With such an advantage, it also began to change tactics and began to divide The battlefield gradually encroached on the orc army.

The battle between you and me also made Gooden see the shocking scene of nearly a million people fighting for the first time.

And this kind of large-scale battle is at most a medium-scale battle between the two countries, such as the front line of the Broken Vein Fortress and the Gobi Sand City in the barren land. military combat.

The war fought from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening.

Taking advantage of the dual advantages of the number of soldiers and the depth of the battlefield, the imperial army can take turns to retreat to rest and replenish their physical strength, and then continue to fight.

Although the orc army has room for movement in the city wall area, it is difficult to fight in rotation like the imperial army.

And the more important reason is that the rear stove fire came together, and the shells that followed fell into the logistics barracks. It was impossible to complete the normal supply work, and many orcs on the front line were engaged in high-intensity operations.

Later, in order to prevent the barracks from being bombed again, the orcs had to capture a group of human civilians who could cook and force them to make the food needed for the front line.

When the scouts discovered this, they were also forced to stop the shelling mission.

The stars in the night sky twinkle and the moon shines.

The Imperial Army, which had been attacking for a whole day, finally sounded the order to retreat.

The retreat of the army does not mean the defeat of the war.

Attacking a city where hundreds of thousands of orcs are stationed cannot be completed in one day. If the defense is tighter, the two armies may have to stalemate at least until the end of the snow season before making a final decision.

The truce at night was to allow the armies of both sides to take away their own corpses. Nearly a million people fought, and the total number of people killed on both sides reached 16 throughout the day.

Among them, the empire lost 5 people and the orcs lost 11 people.

This battle loss situation is still a miracle battle loss for the Imperial Army.

After all, the enemy they were facing was orcs, and it was still a siege operation. Under normal circumstances, the loss was at least [-] to [-], [-] for the empire, and [-] for the orcs.

But now the situation has been reversed, the orcs have become two, and the empire has become one.

This kind of battle damage has a lot to do with the Qingyuan Army's participation in the war.

Inside the big tent of the imperial camp.

The reunited imperial officers expressed disbelief at the battle damage, but they were more impressed by the Qingyuan Army's artillery help.

"It's the first time we have achieved such a record against the orc army. After this battle, the little bastards from the Military Academy may have another battle to analyze."

Taylor's face was full of joy, and he also made a joke in this serious military discussion.

"It's also thanks to the weapons of Lord Gudeen. I don't know how many times they have helped us on the battlefield. I dare say that without the help of artillery, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to touch the ancient city today."

For the praise of everyone, Gudn, the protagonist, just smiled and responded humbly one by one.

Artillery is a killing machine born for war, and it is also thanks to the help of magic technology that it can perform a variety of attacks on the battlefield.

Although Qingyuan Town's chemical technology is already much higher than that of this world, many steps are taken shortcuts, simplified or skipped with magic technology.

Without the support of chemical technology, I am afraid that the strongest gunpowder weapon that the Qingyuan Army can use now is the flintlock gun, the kind that fires once and then reloads for seven or eight seconds.

"Speaking of which, Lord Gudeen, your Qingyuan Town was once able to defend against an army of 40 orcs. You have also seen our offensive layout today. You have defensive experience in this area. Is there any improvement? Can you give us your opinion?"

Karlov, who is both extraordinary and the general of the Eighth Army, suddenly asked Gudn a question and suggestion. When everyone present heard this, they couldn't help but stop their communication and looked at him.

Hearing this question, Taylor and Hogg also had a trace of anticipation on their faces, wanting to hear what Gooden had to say.

It has never happened in the empire to let a lord who governs the territory give opinions on the battle of the imperial army.

If it didn't matter who came yesterday, I'm afraid none of the people present could take it seriously and hear what he said, and if he really told the other side, everyone would criticize and embarrass Gudn.

But after a day's combat understanding, everyone has been deeply impressed by the strength of the Qingyuan army.

Although the time and number of battles are not much, each shot and the result can surprise and shock everyone.

As for the city wall alone, if they were allowed to attack by themselves for a week, it might not necessarily have such an effect.

Seeing that the other party suddenly asked a difficult question, Gu Deen was also slightly taken aback, and then praised with a smile.

"As an ordinary lord, I don't really know much about this aspect, but judging from today's situation alone, the imperial army's coordinated attack is already very tacit, and the attack angle and tactical coordination on the battlefield are also impeccable. picky."

In other people's territory, it is definitely not possible to directly talk about shortcomings, but this kind of rhetoric makes everyone dissatisfied.

What everyone wants to hear are shortcomings, not compliments, but as a layman, Gudeen can't blame him for not seeing any shortcomings.

A group of officers just sighed in their hearts, but what Gude said next made them suddenly look forward to it.

"However, I may not see any problems from the perspective of the empire, but if I switch to the orc side, I have a lot to say."

"Although the imperial army's offensive has a perfect plan and deployment, the main attack area of ​​the battlefield has not achieved the desired offensive effect. Although there are a large number of orc defenders, the imperial army has more people and better weapon support."

"When the orcs dragged them into their strangulation area positions, the offensive strategy against the imperial army has been alleviated by more than half, and doing so will greatly increase the battle losses of the imperial soldiers."

The matter of being dragged into their combat rhythm by the orcs was also discovered by a group of imperial officers, but they had no good way to solve this method for a while.

After all, after fighting for hundreds of years, the tricks and tactics used have been clearly grasped. Today's battles on the battlefield are the most stable and effective tactics in exchange for repeated explorations.

"In the face of such a defense, the imperial army can actually choose to change its attack strategy. The only variable for the orc army is the army stationed outside the northern city."

"With their existence, all attacks against Ancient Stone City will be blocked and mitigated by them. If they can be eliminated first, the defenders of Ancient Stone City will have no external means of support, and it will not be a problem to push into the city to fight. "

"But the orcs are also aware of this. They will definitely guard against the army outside the northern city. Even if all of them die in battle, they have to defend this place, because this is their last lifeline."

For Gudn's analysis, the three empires are still very satisfied, and the problem of the orcs is exactly the same.

Although today's several attacks have already entered the city, the orcs outside the northern city can always come out to support at critical moments, cutting off the retreat route of the city wall.

In this way, the soldiers who had invaded the city were forced to evacuate outward, giving up the advantage they had finally fought back.

"The key point is right, and there is an offensive point, so if you were the commander-in-chief of the whole army, how would you solve it?"

Hoggz also wanted to see how Gudern's commander-in-chief thought and strength was, and handed over the command simulation sand table to him.

"I don't have much experience in commanding so many people, but from the perspective of my thinking, I will attack on the second day in the north and deploy at least half of the troops to attack."

"At the same time, the attack on the eastern city wall turned into a confrontation. Let a group of troops wait outside the broken city. If they don't attack, they will put pressure on the opponent and prevent them from coming out of the broken city wall to support the northern battlefield."

"The Qingyuan army can also exert its full strength on this kind of battlefield in this environment. If the orcs want to support them, they have to give up the city defenses and fight with us in the plain area."

"But if they can't hold on, then the northern battlefield can be gradually eroded, preventing the opponent's lifeline from being completely destroyed, leaving only an ancient stone city that is difficult to turn over. At that time, the siege army will attack from the north and east at the same time. The defense of the orcs will not be enough. It will be as strong as the first day, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken."

Commanding hundreds of thousands of troops, Gu Deen has no experience in this kind of thing, and a little carelessness is a joke.

Therefore, Gudeen's idea of ​​attack is only a general statement, and he has not explained it in detail.

As for Gudern's idea, everyone discussed the feasibility in a low voice after hearing it, and finally came to a conclusion that there was no problem at all.

They have an idea of ​​the strength of the orcs and the strength of the imperial army. This style of play is not aggressive, but very conservative.

It is a conservative style of play, the organizational capabilities of the imperial army will not be fragmented too much, and the execution can also be arranged according to the said tactics. Therefore, after comparing and calculating the consumption, the final result is just as Gudern said. .

Once the strangling of the orc army outside the North City was completed, the Ancient Stone City would be completely captured within three days at most.

Such a preset result is much faster than their original designated time. For the orc defenders in Ancient Stone City, the imperial army's plan is to take it in seven days.

But now with the help of the Qingyuan Army, it can be taken within four to five days at the earliest.

However, the idea given by Gudn can solve the orcs faster. This kind of idea and deployment made everyone start discussing the implementation of details quickly and in detail.

And Taylor and Hogz were also very surprised by Gudn's thinking. Gudn's observation and deployment on the battlefield were stronger than they imagined.

As Karlov who raised the question, his views on Gudn have also changed at the moment.

The idea given by Gu Deen gave the imperial officers a new deployment arrangement, and after demonstrating the strength of the Qingyuan Army and wisdom, he was recognized and accepted by the group.

On some issues, everyone will also discuss with Gudn according to the attitude of equality and class. Such a change of attitude is the best embodiment of one's own strength.

It didn't take long to supplement the tactics at night. After confirming the offensive ideas for the second day, everyone immediately started to get busy.

As for the three direct commanders, Chaofan, after greeting Gu Deen for a while, he immediately went to assign tasks.

At night, in order to prevent each other from attacking each other, the two sides made very strict patrols and protection. Even in the Qingyuan Army's artillery position, there was a company on standby at all times to prepare for battle.

Fortunately, after a day of fierce fighting, the soldiers on both sides were already extremely exhausted, and neither side assembled any night attack troops at night.

By the early morning of the next day, the imperial army began to move quickly according to the preset arrangement last night.

From the west and south, troops were mobilized to encircle the orcs outside the northern city from the left, and the main army from the east also mobilized troops to encircle them from the right.

At the same time, the artillery positions that had received the order fired the first shot of today's first battle.

The 36 cannons were attacking the orc camps outside the northern city. Since the orcs knew that the artillery would not attack areas with civilians, there were also many areas where urban residents were detained between the orc camps outside the northern city.

This restricted the artillery attack to a certain extent, but the focus of this attack was to destroy the simple defensive measures outside the camp, so that the imperial army could break into the camp.

At the same time, on the battlefield from the north to the east, the Imperial Army also deliberately gave up an area to the Qingyuan Army to fight.

The weapons and equipment of the Qingyuan army are all crushing. If the orcs don't defend, they will let people into the camp, but if they defend, they can't stop the attack of the Qingyuan army.

Such a situation raised the intensity of the entire war to a higher level from the very beginning.

At the same time, Hadley in the city also looked serious.

After the imperial army's offensive conversion, it is undoubtedly a huge pressure for him.

Once the orc army outside the northern city is dispersed, the orcs can really only fight trapped beasts, but right now the imperial army has assembled 30 people to attack, and the gap in numbers has already reached three to one.

For the defense outside the city, the orcs already had the will but not enough power.

What's even more strange is that there are wars in the west and south, but the eastern city wall, which was attacked the most fiercely yesterday, is quiet at the moment.

Although the imperial army was deployed outside, they did not launch an attack, which made Hadri feel a little weird and at the same time feel even more uneasy.

But as the battle in the north became more intense, Hadley had to respond, and asked the gap in the east wall to mobilize troops to help relieve the siege of the north city.

But as the first batch of orcs stepped out of the city wall, the ensuing bullets and artillery fell, blocking any orcs who dared to step out of the city wall.

At this moment, Hadley understood why the imperial army did not attack the area surrounded by the city wall, it was waiting for his reinforcements to come out!

"Damn Gudeen... order the army to fight out from the west city and support the flank of the north city camp."

"Yes!"

Sensing the situation of the battle, the expressions of the three extraordinary orcs in the room were not good.

The empire's strategy is precisely their most critical weakness, but right now they can help the deployment of troops outside the northern city to be suppressed and unable to get out of the eastern city, which is to be entangled by the Griffin Legion in the sky.

The only army that can go around is also leading through a battlefield area. Such a slow battle is very unfavorable for the camp outside the northern city.

Under yesterday's battle damage, the 27 troops outside the northern city lost more than 15. At the same time, in order to supplement the defense in the city, the defenders at this moment are less than [-].

Facing the attack of the imperial army, the orc soldiers on the front line were almost in a situation of one against three, or even one against four.

Although the orc army is good at standing more with less, it also needs to fight on the same basis, but the current situation is not on the same basis, on the contrary, it is still in a state of being suppressed.

This made it impossible for the orcs to fully display their strength. At the same time, with the official participation of the Qingyuan army on the frontal battlefield, the orcs' defense was obviously a bit weak.

With the continuous adjustment and contraction of the front line, the orc camp outside the northern city was soon completely divided and scattered.

Seeing this scene, Hadley no longer had the confidence to continue to stick to the outside, and ordered the North City army to withdraw to the city for the final defense.
