The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 435 Must Capture the City
[-] Vikia archers, these fleeing soldiers of the original Vikia lord, were bought by Zhang Qiang with money and righteousness, wealth and wealth, and became Zhang Qiang's soldiers, which made Zhang Qiang's military strength skyrocket to the point where he could not control it.

Yes, it cannot be controlled, and his command ability consists of three parts.

His own command skill is currently level 12. According to the previous statement, a level 12 command ability can command five more soldiers, and level 60 is only [-] people.

The number of commanding soldiers increased by the status, the seventh-class viscount, is said to be able to command 700 people, and the total is 760 people, not to mention the number of people increased by the commanding skills of each level of status, in general, A total of 760 people.

The second is prestige and charisma, as well as meritorious service points. These are floating, and it only adds 300 people to him at present, that is to say, he can only control 1060 people.

The problem is that although he had a small victory recently, his prestige did not increase much. Instead, he was repeatedly defeated and fled, and some soldiers were reared up to attract the enemy's large troops. His prestige is tied to his charisma and meritorious deeds. If he loses a battle, he will lose some. If there are too many times, his prestige will also fall to the bottom. It is estimated that everyone on Calradia now knows that he has repeatedly escaped. thing.

There is no way, who made your strength too low, he no longer has the arrogance to fight against the army of the Kingdom of Sarande, that time it was the enemy's stupidity, his ignorance, and luck, and only then did he know that sometimes, luck can also used up.

Rod LaPoye's invitation, Drina's cuteness and charm, and the huge temptation of the family marriage made him rush over in a feverish manner. As a result, Rod LaPoye miscalculated the enemy and made mistakes in intelligence and reconnaissance , making him so embarrassed.

The army was walking lifelessly on the snow field, and now he wanted to go back to Kulau City to rest and recuperate. The deserters who had just surrendered were not stable.

The extra 140 soldiers and bandits have already exceeded his control ability. In many cases, you can't take care of them, and they start to make trouble for Zhang Qiang.

It is obviously impossible to take care of 40 Vikia archers with a force of only 40 people, plus more than 200 wounded who have not recovered from serious injuries.

Marching has become a kind of torture. There is not enough food, so what if they have money? up.

Zhang Qiang's impassioned speech at the beginning was now thrown away by them and fell on deaf ears.

Facing these soldiers, Zhang Qiang began to feel a headache.

How to find a way to restore morale and find food is what he needs to think about most, but now he is in a wasteland with no people for hundreds of miles.

where to find food

Where to go to rest?

He found Lesarit, after all, he had served as a soldier in the Kingdom of Vikia, a veteran, and a soldier instructor.

He called for Lesarit, "My hero knight, where do you think we can find a place to rest?"

Lesarite thought for a while and said: "My lord, I observed the surrounding terrain and found that this place is not far from Fort Le Lago. I also asked which soldiers and bandits were recruited, about 160 miles away. If we can take Fort Le Lago, then we can get rid of a serious problem for Rod Laboye and gain an extra territory, or let our soldiers go to the city to rest."

"Castle Le Lago?"

Zhang Qiang asked.

"Yes, my lord, Fort Lelago, that is the fortress closest to the edge of the snow mountain. Where did many Vikirians enter the mountain, to find some prey in the snow mountain that does not know the border or how deep it is, and use the prey to fur and flesh to satisfy their trade and food needs.

Of course, these are all means of survival for the nearby Vikia people. The most primitive Vikia people live here. Even most of the people in the Vikia Kingdom are no longer willing to go deep into the mountains to live a life of ruthlessness and blood. , they have better options, they can trade with the Nords, they can also trade with the Kingdom of Swadia, and they can even do business with the Kujit. "

"Okay, let's go to Fort Le Lago and attack Fort Le Lago."

Lesarite said: "My lord, Fort Le Lago is not a good place. The mountain road is steep and colder. The Vikiers there are more brutal and have fighting power, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

"It's okay, we have 200 people." Zhang Qiang smiled and looked at the Vikia archers who had just been recruited.

Lesarit looked at those people and nodded slightly.

In this way, Zhang Qiang revised the marching route, and the whole army rushed towards Fort Lelago at an accelerated speed.

In a day and a night, the whole army arrived at Fort Le Lago.

Of course it didn't go so smoothly. Although Zhang Qiang added a dozen men to his total manpower, with the recovery of some seriously wounded, more than 40 people escaped, and these people became soldiers again. Bandit, this is what Zhang Qiang expected, morale is low, there is no food, and he is short of manpower, there is no way to take care of them all.

During the march, it is normal for one or two people to suddenly go away.

Night was the peak time for deserters to escape, and more than 90 people left at once, which made Zhang Qiang's team quickly drop from more than 280 people to more than 40 people in one fell swoop.

What affected the most was that more than 10 bounty hunters led by him also escaped.

The morale of his army suddenly dropped to a dangerous level, currently only more than 30 morale.

The morale brought by defeating the Dark Knight earlier was gone in one fell swoop.

At dawn, Zhang Qiang's troops surrounded Fort Le Lago.

Although it was very secretive, it was discovered by Fort Lelago. They rushed out a dozen or so scout cavalry and ran to a distance, apparently reporting to the army of the Sultanate of Sarande.

Zhang Qiang ordered.

"Yatiman, build siege equipment immediately,"

"Lessarit arranged for the soldiers to set up camp, rest, wait for the siege equipment to be built, and arrange for the soldiers to attack the city."

"Ginny, James, try to take care of the previous wounded and let them recover in the past few days."

"Bolcha, with the scouts, investigate the enemy's presence on the ground of the castle."

"Bestur, lead the scout cavalry to detect the movement of the surrounding enemies and closely monitor all the surrounding enemy troops. If there are large enemy troops coming, try to hold them back first, and then send someone back to report."

At this moment, Zhang Qiang was in danger. If he could not quickly take down Fort Le Lago, his [-] gold coins would be in vain, and these newly joined Vikia archers might escape.

They couldn't escape far, and when he returned to the army, these people might become his trouble again.

When his soldiers had almost escaped, the strength of the troops reversed, and these soldiers might attack him.

He didn't want to play the money trick again.

A great loss to his reputation.

If he fought against these people, he might be captured and his team destroyed. At that time, he could only bring a few heroic knights back to his territory.

At that time, all efforts were in vain.

Losing money does not count, and losing the army does not count. It is possible that these players who followed him will all die in battle, or become slaves and be captured by soldiers and bandits. No matter how you say it, players are also delicate. Life is precious to NPCs. Said to be fragile.

As the sun rose, Polcha's reconnaissance finally paid off.

The garrison in Fort Le Lago is Doruboye who escaped, the original lord of Vikia, and now the lord of the Sultanate of Sarande. He was among the lords of the Sultanate of Sarande who besieged him a few days ago. The captive soldiers learned from their mouths that he was one of the lords of the Sultanate of Sarande who escaped first. He was beaten to death by the dark knight, panicked, and fled back to the territory with his soldiers.

He was later named the lord of Fort Lelago in the Sultanate of Salander, and this was his territory.

There are 200 Vikia infantry, 100 Vikia archers, and [-] Vikia breastplate knights in Fort Lelago.

Zhang Qiang was shocked when he heard the news.

This strength is much higher than his current strength. Although his strength is more than 300 people more than the opponent, but in the field, Zhang Qiang can only escape with people. I don’t know why he is besieging the city at the moment, but this guy doesn’t Out of town to fight back.

If he went out of the city to fight back, Zhang Qiang would have to consider whether he had escaped.

The experience of Fort Garmitch is vivid. When they besieged the Earl of Plais, they went out of the city to fight back against him, but they suffered heavy losses. More than 1000 people were beaten and more than 100 people were left.

It can be said that they narrowly beat the opponent.

If it wasn't for Viscount Garrard's stupidity, and the convenient location, they guarded the hillside, relied on the location, and slowly consumed the enemy. In addition to Zhang Qiang's previous arrangement, trapping horses in pits, tripping horses, and taking horses, the entire terrain would be very complicated. However, the enemy didn't rush out of the city all at once and distribute them so that he could defeat them one by one. He might have been defeated.

Of course Zhang Qiang didn't know the situation of Doruboye in Fort Lelago at the moment.

At this moment, Doruboye was standing on the city wall, looking at the stretch of tents outside, the muscles on his face were twitching.

Especially looking at Zhang Qiang's last cavalry cavalry and heroic knights wearing dark knight armor on the hillside in the distance.

He had been terrified by the Dark Knight.

Seeing the seventeen knights whose faces were completely hidden under the mask and wrapped in black armor, his heart beat faster than anyone else, and the sweat on his face fell like a waterfall in the cold weather.

Seeing that the banner in front was a nobleman's banner, judging from his experience, it was not a dark knight's army, but with a dozen or so dark knights, he did not dare to act rashly.

He had fought against the dark hunters in Bazek Village, and when the dark knights came out from behind like a storm and attacked them, he didn't take it seriously at first, and charged with the breastplate raiders, but when he had three hundred Vegia chest When Jia Qibing charged in front of him, there were only fifty dark cavalry, and he felt that there were almost three thousand cavalry rushing towards him, and the strength of the opponent was beyond his comparability.

Sure enough, in a face-to-face meeting, he lost fifty cuirassiers, and none of the opponents fell off their horses. These fifty dark knights rushed into the infantry behind him and hacked wantonly, and those infantry did not fight back. Strength, agility is not as good as others, strength is not as good as others, 800 infantry and archers, only caused a few dark knights to lose their horses, and the dark knights who fell off their horses are simply more powerful than the Vekia guards he brought, one hit ten, After fighting for half an hour, his infantry team actually began to break up. When he found the angle and led the cuirassiers to rush over again, he lost another [-] cuirassiers in one face-to-face encounter.

He felt that the cuirassiers he thought were very powerful were like paper in the hands of others, and they were no match at all.

A large number of infantry just made people lose some mobility a little bit, and the loss caused to them was just some dark cavalry fell off their horses. When he charged again, his loss reached 600 people, including 150 cuirassiers. , more than 400 infantry and archers.

At this time, he knew that he could no longer fight, and looked for opportunities to retreat towards the edge of the battlefield.

More than a dozen dark knights chased after him, biting his troops tightly, killing all his infantry, and ran back to his territory with a hundred cuirassiers.

That is to say, he alone contributed about [-] to [-] deserters to the surrounding wasteland, and the rest were either killed or captured by the dark knights and dark hunters.

Perhaps in front of the 4000 army, the Dark Hunter and the Dark Knight suffered heavy losses, but they were also beaten to [-] people and fled in all directions.

This is no longer a matter of military strength, but a matter of the strength of an army.

The strength depends on how elite the soldiers are. In his opinion, the only one who can compete with the Dark Knight is the noble lord outside his city. When he ran away, he saw more than 60 knights and a dozen soldiers. The momentum of the Dark Knight's attack made him feel inferior. Maybe the opponent also lost a lot, but if he had to choose again, even if he led a lord's army of more than 1000 people, he would not dare to fight the Dark Knight.

"Order to go on, everyone is ready to defend the city, stick to the city, and wait for reinforcements."

Doruboye finally made a seemingly safe decision.

Zhang Qiang didn't know this. What he knew was that he had to do things more safely, but he also had to speed up. After another night, under the cover of darkness, his demoralized soldiers might run away again. The morale was low. More than 90 people escaped, plus sporadic escapes along the road, he lost more than 100 soldiers at once. If it gets dark, more than 200 soldiers may escape this time. .

If food is found, the morale of the soldiers will rise if they have something to eat. After capturing Fort Le Lago, with the city, these soldiers will have a safe place to spend the night, and the morale will also rise, and the city can give those who want to escape Soldiers add some trouble.

If you win Fort Le Lago, victory is something that every soldier likes. His meritorious service rises and his charisma rises again, so that the soldiers have a sense of belonging to him, and then morale will rise again.

The game ring has already prompted, "If you take Fort Le Lago, the morale of his army will increase by [-]." Maybe this is not much, but with a morale of [-], the soldiers will not run away.
