The weird game of the ancient gods

Chapter 222 The leader’s big game

Xia Yu stood on the city wall and looked at the endless military camps below, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Although the power of modern weapons is absolutely worthy of killing enemies, he always feels that there is a dark cloud hanging over the city. What is the leader's plan? Just rely on the large number of people to pile up heads? He has obviously seen the power of modern weapons, why would he do this again? No, he must have a back-up plan, what could it be?

Just as he was thinking, there was movement in the military camp below.

Groups of 'soldiers' came out of the military camp.

Xia Yu picked up the telescope and looked at it. They were obviously not soldiers, but some civilians. They were not holding swords but shovels, and they started digging trenches outside the camp.

What's the meaning? Are the Imperial Army trying to trap this city? Xia Yu was a little stunned. The problem was that the expeditionary army would win if they persisted for another half month.

The dragon knight next to him asked: "Do you want to fire two shots?"

Xia Yu shook his head, "There's no need. They're just cannon fodder. No matter how many people are killed, they won't feel bad. Cannonballs are precious, so it's better to save them for critical moments."

Xia Yu continued to observe as he spoke. He was a little worried at first, but soon felt relieved. These people used the most primitive tools and could dig out one meter in half a day. If they wanted to dig a trench under the city wall, That's not the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

Watching these people dig until night, they only dug a few dozen meters.

The enemy continued to dig trenches the next day. They seemed to have made up their mind to dig the trench all the way to the bottom of the city wall. Moreover, they were not digging in one place or on one side, but across the entire city. The entire city of Kalai seemed to be digging. It's going to be surrounded by trenches.

It was found that there was no response from the city wall, and some brave people even rushed directly to a place hundreds of meters away from the city wall and started digging.

This was unbearable, but it was a waste of bullets to shoot two or three kittens with a machine gun, so Xia Yu put snipers in position and killed dozens of them in a burst, and the rest dispersed in a rush.

At night, Xia Yu met with others and found that the same situation had happened to several other city walls.

Ergouzi: "Conspiracy, there is definitely a conspiracy! I think they want to limit the mobility of our tanks and compress our strategic space. When the time comes, the ground will be full of ditches and the vehicles will not be able to drive. How about we send in tank troops?" Go out and do something?"

Xia Yu felt that things were not that simple, but this seemed to be the best choice at the moment.

"Okay, then circle the city, shoot while moving, and don't get blocked."

"Do not worry!"

On the third day, when the enemy sent people to dig trenches again, the gates of Kalai City suddenly opened, and ten chariots filed out and rushed directly towards the enemy's camp.

The civilians who were digging trenches were frightened and fled in all directions. The tanks drove the farmers away like ducks. The machine guns on the roofs of the vehicles fired a burst of fire, and corpses were everywhere. However, the trenches were working at this time, and the hard workers rushed to Jumping in the ditch really dodged most of the bullets.

The chariot went around the city, shooting as it went. People jumped into the ditch one after another. It was quite relieved, but not many people were killed in the circle. Most of them were civilians, so it was a waste of money. Less ammo and gas.

Back in Kalai City, Ergouzi was also speechless, "Oh my god, this leader is really interesting."

Feihu said: "But I still don't understand. They are so far away from the city wall. If they had to dig under the city, we would have won by now."

Xuanniao frowned, "Maybe this is his idea, to induce us to make mistakes. We just need to remain unchanged in response to changes."

Xia Yu sighed. It seemed like this was the only way he could do it for now, but he still felt that something was wrong. Do he really want to sit back and wait for death?

He asked the soldiers on the city wall to pay attention to the progress of trench excavation, and if it exceeded expectations, they must respond immediately.

The next seven days were very peaceful. The enemy kept digging trenches and attacked from time to time in the city. However, the small number of tanks was not enough to penetrate the enemy's camp, and they did not dare to concentrate the infantry. Occasionally they fired a few cannons and killed several people. Hundreds of civilians, but it means nothing to the enemy's huge force.

Xia Yu also thought about carrying out an arson attack, but unfortunately there were no incendiary bombs. Ordinary arson methods could not burn it at all. The enemy had nothing but plenty of manpower. There were also a large number of people keeping watch at night, and the slightest fire was put out immediately.

Then the city began to attack again at night, causing panic, but it seemed that the Dark Goddess really gave her followers shelter. The camp in the darkness always remained quiet no matter how many shells it received.

This situation lasted for ten days. At the end of the ten days, the imperial army only dug less than one thousand meters, and they were still only more than one thousand meters away from the city wall.

And at this rate, the Holy Spirit core would be activated in five days. Xia Yu felt a little lucky in his heart. It seemed that the imperial army really had no chance.

On the eleventh day, the enemy seemed to finally realize that continuing like this was not an option, and the army began to take action.

Thousands of siege vehicles, ladders, and building vehicles began to move towards the bottom of the city wall. Thousands of soldiers walked out of the military camp. This time they were not civilians. Most of them were regular troops. They seemed to be planning a fight. The most typical siege battle.

Xia Yu did not go to the city wall. It was enough that the dragon and tiger combination were responsible for defending the city. He decided to sit in the temple with peace of mind.

Boom boom boom!

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

The sound of explosions and machine gun shooting continued to come from a distance. Xia Yu observed the battle situation through a drone. The enemy's morale was as bad as ever. Whenever the troops came under concentrated fire, they would collapse immediately if there were too many casualties. Those attackers The city equipment was destroyed one after another before they even moved under the city wall.

Occasionally pushed to the city wall. As soon as they were added up, they were fired upon by machine guns, and the assembled troops were unable to attack the city wall.

At the end of the day, nothing was achieved except thousands of corpses.

"Haha, this idiot, the leader, is totally out of ideas." During the party in the evening, Ergouzi said excitedly.

Xia Yu was also a little speechless. After so long, is this all?

"By the way, do we still have enough ammunition?"

Longqi said: "Don't worry, I've checked it and it's definitely enough."

The situation continued like this on the second day, and the same on the third day. On the fourth day, that is, there was only one day left for the expeditionary force to complete its mission. The enemy seemed to be really anxious. They came out in full force and launched the most ferocious offensive. They were densely packed. Soldiers swarmed in and were sent from the city wall to the camp. They were arranged in scattered formations and seemed to intend to attack by storm all day long.

The supervising team even lined up behind the army. With the large number of people, they even pushed the line directly under the city wall, ignoring the suppression of firepower.

A large number of civilians were also sent to the front line. Although they could not climb the city to fight, they could push engineering vehicles, hold ladders, operate catapults, or simply stand there and waste the bullets of the expeditionary force.

Totally ignoring casualties.

This doubled the pressure. After all, the enemy had an army of hundreds of thousands, and there were only 4,000 people on the city wall. Most of them were the "Legion of Light" who made up the numbers, throwing rocks and shooting arrows.

"No, we can't stand it anymore."

"Dongcheng needs help!"

"We need fire support, coordinates 86.34!"

Xia Yu looked at the fierce battle on the city wall and felt regretful.

Sure enough, it was a mistake to enter the city. The area that needs to be defended is too large. The more than 300 infantrymen of the Expeditionary Force were scattered on the city wall. The machine guns were also too three-pointed. Once there were more enemies, it was difficult to suppress them. Now it all depends on Fixed-point support with heavy artillery came to save the battle.

But fortunately, it seems that I can still hold on. As long as I can survive today, I will win.

He still has a thousand Legions of Light, more than two hundred Temple Knights, a hundred Expeditionary Force soldiers, and chariot troops, so they should be fine.

Seeing that several city walls were in danger, he had to send some reinforcements, one hundred here and two hundred there. The troops were really short, so he had to use the soldiers of the expeditionary force and the soldiers of the Legion of Light. In the blink of an eye, he had Most of the reserve team was sent out, and the situation was finally stabilized.

Just when Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief and felt that the crisis was over, he saw a group of soldiers from the Legion of Light sent to reinforce the city wall running over in a panic, "Oh no, the city is broken!"

"What? How is that possible!" Xia Yu was startled and hurriedly picked up the communicator, "Which side of your city is broken?"

"Dongcheng is still fighting fiercely and can still be stopped."

"Xicheng is fine."

"Beicheng needs more people. If we don't come here, we will really be ruined."

"Nancheng can still withstand it, but it's best to get a few more shots."

It has not been breached. Xia Yu was in a daze when a technician from the air team suddenly rushed out, "It's the old city. A large number of enemies suddenly appeared there!"

Xia Yu hurriedly reached over to the drone's screen and saw densely packed black soldiers swarming out of the ruins of the old city, as if poking a hornet's nest.

They quickly dispersed, some launched a back attack towards the city wall, some began to attack the transport teams transporting ammunition to the city wall, and others rushed directly towards the temple.

Looking at the endless troops being sent out, Xia Yu felt a chill in his heart. Is this a tunnel worm that climbed up the technological tree? how so!

Wait, Nydusworms? Xia Yu looked at the dark enemy troops pouring out. At this moment, all the doubts and uneasiness he had had in the past few days were suddenly understood.

The leader had set up a huge game from the beginning. I still remember his confidence when he said that he would win as long as he joined the Imperial Army. Now it seems that he was definitely not bragging.

Manuk's massive battle of Kalai and the heavy casualties were just a trick by the leader to make the expeditionary army think that the imperial army had been defeated, so that the expeditionary army would enter the city. Open the core of the Holy Spirit.

Only by entering the city can the expeditionary force's firepower advantage and range advantage be limited, giving him the possibility of winning in chaos.

From the beginning, the leader sent four partial divisions, which shows that he knew that the battle would fail. Those four partial divisions were to prepare for the second battle of Kalai. They recruited civilians as cannon fodder to expand their numbers. Only with Only by consuming firepower through numbers can he win. This shows that he has already planned for the battle in front of him.

Kuang Shao's death was probably within his expectation. After all, an inexplicable loss will always feel too fake and easily arouse people's suspicions. It must always give people the feeling that I have exhausted all my cards. And Kuang Shao is the fake trump card, which makes the players think that this is his ultimate comeback. In fact, Kuang Shao is nothing more than a discarded piece that hides from others.

The real killer was the first two thousand people sent out. No trace of them was ever found. Now it seems that most of them are hiding in the ruins somewhere in the city, and their mission is to dig tunnels. .

And their actions of digging trenches in the previous ten days were out of drunkenness. They did not want to trap the city at all, but to cover the excavation of tunnels. They must have opened up Kalai by digging in both directions. The passage from the city to the outside.

In the last three days, they launched a fierce attack as a final performance, attracting most of the troops to the city wall. When the city was particularly empty, they launched an ambush in one fell swoop, coordinated internally and externally, and turned the tables in one fell swoop.

If all this is the leader's plan, then I have to say that this person is really a bit scary.
