Chapter 706: Jie Shika's Car Castle (2-in-1)
The general of the Kingdom of Bohemia, Jashika, received an order from Bleda to protect the treasure looted from the Kingdom of Hungary.
"Hussite legion, go with me."
Jashika left the fortress with the not very well-equipped Hussite legions, carrying with them a large number of wagons, each with about four pack horses.
"I have an ominous premonition, but may the Lord bless me."
Knowing that the eastern cavalry outside the city was not easy to provoke, he still led the Hussite army according to Breda's order, and cooperated with the Hun cavalry in the royal city to support the city that was hoarding treasures.
Large wagons were rutted on the dirt road, and outside were the light cavalry of the Hussite legion and a small number of knights.
Even in the field, the Hussite legion could block the cavalry's attacks, and the food, grass and water carried by the wagons could be used as supplies for the legions, so that Jaishka had the courage to go out of the city.
"Hussite regiments, they left the fortress."
The Iron Eagle Scout Cavalry was secretly observing the movements of the Hussite legion, and immediately followed after the Hussite legion left.
A city in the Hun Empire, Chutian drove the servant army to attack the city, and groups of Gothic and Hun Empire soldiers used as cannon fodder to climb the city wall with simple ladders, and hundreds of soldiers rolled down from the ladders and suffered heavy losses.
Even so, Chu Tian was still indifferent, and the price of storming the city was unexpected.
After many sieges, Chu Tian was already a little numb, and it was not his core strength that was consumed anyway.
Under Chutian's offensive at any cost, the defenders could not stand alone.
The besieging side deliberately surrounded three and missing one, allowing the defenders to continue to ask for help from the royal city.
"The Hussite army of Jayshika has been dispatched, Tai Shici continues to besiege the city, and the rest of the people will follow me to destroy this support army."
Chu Tian led the cavalry, specifically to block the Jieshika Legion.
The Jie Shika Legion once repelled Fan Lihua's cavalry, and there was still a little holiday with Chu Tian.
Ekaterina asked, "How do you break the castle of Jayka?" He should have a relatively high bonus to Cheburg. ”
"Just focus your attacks on a little bit."
……
In the northern part of the Ukrainian plain, the White Robe Corps was blocked, and a Polish hussar was pinning down the White Robe Corps and preventing the White Robe Corps from advancing.
Zhao Yun was no stranger to the Polish hussars, broke the stabbed cavalry spear, and killed more than a dozen Polish hussars.
White Horse Yicong was attacked by the Polish hussars, many cavalry were killed by Polish cavalry guns, and the use of horn bows by White Horse Yicong also caused a lot of casualties to the Polish hussars.
Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army drew out its ring-headed sword and fought hand-to-hand with the Polish hussars, and the momentum of the white broken army was not inferior to the Polish hussars in hand-to-hand combat when the cavalry charged.
The attack of the Polish hussars on the white-robed legions was once again repulsed, and Zhao Yun crossed his spear and looked at the retreating Polish hussars.
This group of cavalry is the most representative type of Polish civilization, the armor is between light cavalry and heavy cavalry, with the mobility of the Eastern cavalry and the impact of the Western knights, killing the Polish hussars requires a lot of physical strength.
Chen Qingzhi's face was solemn: "This cavalry general who keeps attacking us has kept a distance from us, I'm afraid it's to prevent the two generals from slashing him suddenly." Our journey has been delayed, and we have lost a lot of cavalry. This person is not an ordinary person. ”
Xue Rengui held Fang Tian's halberd, which was still dripping blood: "At least two thousand Polish hussars died under our attack, he shouldn't dare to come again." ”
"Let's go and meet the Lord as soon as possible."
Chen Qingzhi knew that the white-robed army had delayed the trip, and maybe it would make a mistake, so the white-robed army collected the captured war horses and accelerated the march.
After the white-robed army left, the cavalry generals of the Kingdom of Poland, who had been delaying the march of Chen Qingzhi and others, led the Polish hussars to appear and clean up the battlefield.
His legion suffered heavy losses, not rare, but also expensive Polish hussars suffered more than 2,000 casualties, like a white wave of white-robed legions, there were two fierce generals, and the Polish hussars killed at least more than 200 horsemen.
"Their purpose should be to go and join their lords, to show that the king of the east is not among this cavalry......"
The Polish cavalry general thought about it, but still led the Polish hussars, followed the white-robed corps, and marched south.
……
"Stop!"
Jayska halted the Hussite advance, as he could already see the Eagle of the Iron Eagle Scout.
When the War Eagle of the Iron Eagle Scout gained the advantage of vision, it also revealed that Chutian's cavalry was approaching.
Many lords in the West already knew that some cavalry in the East would use warhawks to expand their field of vision.
"Set up a two-fold formation."
Jie Shika occupied a favorable terrain, set the wagon convoy away, and the baggage team, cavalry, and part of the infantry assembled in the middle of the chariot formation, with the forest and the mountains as the flanks for cover, and some infantry and tower shields to assist in the defense of the car fort.
Out of concern for the Chutian Army, Jieshika chose to deploy two lines of defense to prevent the defense line from being broken by Chutian's cavalry.
The infantry of the Hussite regiment was mainly long-handled weapons, equipped with long-range weapons such as crossbows and muskets, and was mainly defensive.
"As long as they delay the main force of the other side, they will not be able to attack the city, and they will wait until His Majesty Attila returns......"
Jie Shika didn't have the courage to fight Chu Tian, he just used himself as a bait to attract Chu Tian to attack him, who was good at defense, so that he couldn't attack the city.
Sure enough, shortly after the discovery of the Warhawk, the scout cavalry of the Hussite regiment returned from the front with news about the cavalry from the east.
The scout cavalry shouted: "The cavalry from the east is coming, and the number is at least fifty or sixty thousand!" ”
All the infantry and cavalry of the Hussite regiment cheered up, and the cavalry of the east made the entire Hun Empire fearful.
After a while, on the horizon ahead, a black line changed from thin to thick, from a black line to a black press, coming all over the mountains, and the red dragon flag and double-headed eagle flag in the front were hunting!
Iron Eagle scouts and Cossack cavalry were patrolling, and as the vanguard, they were the first to appear in front of the Hussite corps.
The Hussite infantry clenched their spears, axes, and crossbows in their hands, and nervously looked at the wolf-like cavalry. This cavalry is not only Chutian's cavalry, but also Catherine's cavalry.
If it weren't for the improved chariots as the city walls, the first reaction of these infantry when they encountered hordes of cavalry was probably to turn around and flee.
The defense line of the chariot fort gave the infantry the confidence to confront the knights.
"No one should panic or retreat, we have enough food, water, weapons, and the carriage is our greatest reliance. At the same time, it is not easy to fight. ”
Jayska personally came to the first line of defense of the carburg, and the only remaining eye narrowed slightly, looking at the incoming cavalry.
The cavalry on the opposite side wiped out the Golden Horde, full of morale and confidence, and the momentum was like a rainbow.
Jayska could feel the extraordinary cavalry on the opposite side, leaving the Chebao line and waiting for the Hussite army to be slaughtered.
The infantry of the Hussite regiment almost held their breath as they saw the Iron Eagle scouts armed with Eastern armor, and the Cossack cavalrymen wielding Cossack sabers. The cavalry on the opposite side stopped outside the range of the bow and arrow.
"That's the castle of Jayka? His rookfort seems to have an additional defense bonus. ”
Chu Tian rarely faced an opponent with this special type of defense.
Hundreds of special carriages were connected in series using iron flails with high guards, forming a long wall that stretched for thousands of meters. In the middle of the gap between the troop vehicles, the infantry of the Hussite regiment erected tower shields to cover the distance of the air attack.
"It is said that in this kind of car fort, each troop has more than 10 soldiers in a group, ten in a unit, and several units in a company."
Ekaterina showed poissiness in the face of Jayka's carburger tactics, and she knew something about them.
"Dian Wei, you lead the Tiger Guards, get ready."
Chu Tian handed over the task of breaking through the Chebao to a reckless man like Dian Wei, intending to break through the Chebao of Jie Shika by force.
It's a counterweight between spear and shield.
However, Dian Wei was also in danger of being killed.
The reliability of the chariot lies not only in the defense of the chariots, but also in the crossbows and muskets used by the infantry behind the chariots to shoot the enemy troops attacking the defense line of the chariot.
"Not only that, but they also dug a trench in front of the Chebao defense."
Mulan noticed that Jayka's infantry was digging a trench, which had not yet taken shape due to the short time it had been.
"Interfere with them, and don't let their trenches take shape."
Catherine sent Cossack cavalry, using the mobility of the cavalry, and began to harass the line of defense of Jayka. Otherwise, the trench will take shape, and Jayka's castle tactics will be at their peak.
"His Majesty the Great Tsar ordered us to attack the soldiers of Bohemia!"
The Ukrainian Cossack chieftain Khmelnitsky drew his saber and personally led the Cossack hussars to attack the Chefort line of Deshika.
The infantrymen who had been digging trenches in front of the wagon hurriedly withdrew behind the wagon, the nervous crossbowmen held crossbows, the infantry armed with primitive firearms such as muskets hid behind the thick wooden guards or tower shields of the wagons, and rows of crossbows and muskets were aimed at the Cossack cavalry attacking the wagon.
As long as the Cossack cavalry dared to charge the Chebao defense head-on, then the long-range weapons such as crossbows and muskets would teach the Cossack cavalry how to behave.
A Cossack general bent his bow and shot an arrow, which stuck in the ground in front of the carriage.
The Cossack cavalry operated outside the range of the bow and arrow, as long as the infantry of the Hussite corps did not continue to dig trenches.
"The equipment of this group of infantry is really deceptive......"
Chu Tian led the cavalry to show off his might and patrol outside the Chebao of Jieshika.
Jieshika's Chebao has amazing defense, but it lacks the ability to take the initiative to attack, and the cavalry around Chutian makes them dare not leave Chebao.
Leaving the castle, there is only one dead end!
In other words, although Jie Shika is a famous general, he can only be a turtle with a shrunken head.
"Your Majesty, this is information about the Battle of Linz, the warring parties."
When the coalition of the Western Lords and Attila's army met in the Linz area, many free players chose to risk their lives to watch the battle, including Catherine's spies to gather relevant information.
"Alexander's Macedonian legion, on the fourth day of the decisive battle, suddenly broke out, and all the attributes of its military strength, including morale and physical strength, rose dramatically. It is suspected that he has a special trait that can greatly improve the clan's panel in a battle, and the increase should be one of the highest clan traits. ”
Catherine's wariness of other civilizations in the Western Continent allowed her to gain effective information about other civilizations, most notably Alexander's ability to use in the Great War for the first time.
"There should be a special limit to this level of increase, otherwise I bet that if there were no limit, Alexander would definitely use this ability in every big battle."
Chu Tian thought that his speculation should not be wrong.
Greatly improve the ability of the legion panel, if you have this ability, Chu Tian will use it in every big battle, and the loss of troops will definitely be greatly reduced.
Alexander only used it once in a few years, indicating that his characteristics were particularly limited.
Lords are currently speculating that his perk restriction is that he can only be used once a year, but it is possible that there are other restrictions that make it impossible for Alexander to use it on a regular basis.
This is equivalent to the characteristics of the outbreak type, and the characteristics of Chu Tian are mostly continuous characteristics.
Catherine gave Chutian a copy of the information she had gathered: "And the Romans, they have Carthaginian legions, they have begun to expand into North Africa, North Africa has no status, and Rome wants to establish colonies there. ”
"Carthage, that is the sworn enemy of Rome, was occupied by the Romans, which shows that Hannibal, the top military general of Carthage (Tunisian civilization), has not yet been recruited."
Chu Tian thought for a moment, in the Carthaginian civilization, there might be the only saint-level military general in Africa, Hannibal.
At the moment Hannibal's name is not seen in the hero rankings, and Carthage, without Hannibal, was destroyed by the Roman legions, but it is possible.
"Carthage had a population of only three million, and it was normal for it to be defeated by the Roman legions, which had a population of 20 million. Now there are more than 20 million, and they already have a large number of colonies. ”
Catherine, as a lord focused on the Western Continent, has always maintained a high level of concern for other civilizations in the Western Continent.
Turning on the colony mode is also an old tradition of the Western lords.
The land and population of the West were divided among the various empires, and their population was not large enough, and if they wanted to expand, they could only colonize abroad.
The existence of the teleportation array greatly reduces the cost of ruling the colony, and the cost of using the teleportation array can be apportioned to the population of the colony.
The Han Empire also had such a tendency, and the destruction of the Goryeo Kingdom by Myeongguan and the forcible occupation of the Goryeo Peninsula were somewhat similar to the destruction of Carthage by the Romans.
Also, Timur's siege of Vienna ended. Archduke Ferdinand of Austria suffered heavy losses in his army, and Hohenzollern could take advantage of the opportunity to ascend to the throne of Holy Roman Emperor and possibly even annex Austria and Hungary. ”
"That's not something we can control, the strength of these lords is quite good."
Chu Tian came to the Western Continent for the first time to fight and had some understanding of the situation in the Western Continent. The Western Continent is currently also a situation of vassals, because of the existence of the player, it still opens up the colonial situation, because the powerful civilizations in the Western Continent cannot conquer anyone, so they can only rely on the colonies to supplement the population and finances.
At present, Chutian is not able to meddle in this side of the matter, and Catherine's influence is limited to Eastern Europe.
"Lord, the white-robed legion is here to join us!"
When Chu Tian was organizing an attack on Jie Shika's Chebao, the white-robed army, which had been without news, finally arrived and joined Chu Tian.
"The trip of the White Robe Legion is a little later than expected, Chen Qingzhi They shouldn't have such a mistake, what trouble did they encounter? Let Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun come to see me. ”
Chu Tian wanted to know the reason why the white-robed army was late.
Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui, and Zhao Yun arrived, and they still had a faint bloody aura on their bodies, and it was estimated that a big war broke out not long ago.
"There is a group of Polish hussars delaying us on the way, probably the cavalry generals of the Kingdom of Poland, and the losses of the other side should be above us."
Chen Qingzhi explained the reason.
"Polish hussars?"
Chutian looked at Catherine, who had a group of Polish hussars under her.
"Look at what I do, the Polish hussars are a special class of troops in the Kingdom of Poland, some important generals or nobles of the Polish civilization, and they are qualified to recruit Polish hussars. The Polish heroes who can delay the white-robed army a little should also be one of the best in Polish civilization. ”
A handful of Catherine's generals were also heroes who had taken over from the Kingdom of Poland.
In the eyes of the Eastern lords, the Kingdom of Poland was a small country, but in reality, its population was half that of France, plus allies such as Lithuania, the population was quite large, and there was a time in history when it was also very strong, the Grand Duchy of Moscow, the Teutonic Knights, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire were all defeated by the Polish cavalry.
In every civilization, there has been a time when the ancestors have been wide.
"That Polish hussar, although the losses are not small, may follow us and participate in this battle."
Chen Qingzhi reminded Chutian.
"The warhawk has already spotted two groups of cavalry approaching, and the number of cavalry is more than 100,000."
"Hundreds of thousands? They could not all have been Polish hussars. ”
Chutian did not believe that the Polish generals of the Hunnic Empire could recruit such a large number of cavalry, and the vast majority should only be ordinary Hun cavalry and Polish cavalry.
Now Chutian and Catherine are facing the Chebao of Jieshika, as well as more than 100,000 cavalry outside.
"Their cavalry from all over the country is finally willing to pour out."
After Chutian turned the target into the loot looted by Attila, the Hunnic Empire finally couldn't hold it back.
Chu Tian wanted to take away this treasure, and he also had to defeat the chariot fort and cavalry in front of him.
"Chief, our cavalry has arrived!"
The Hussite regiment was blocked inside the Chebao by Chutian and did not dare to move, and they saw the Hun cavalry and the Polish cavalry appearing next to Chutian's eastern cavalry.
Two cavalry, reinforcements from the Hussite legion!
"We already have more troops than the other side, but we still can't attack."
Jayka knows the weakness of the castle.
The mobility of the carriage was even worse than that of the heaviest heavy cavalry, and if the initiative was attacked, the carriage would be disorganized due to inconsistent movements, and the cavalry would break it.
Continuing to hold on is the best way to do it.
"But chief, this is an opportunity to defeat the Eastern Cavalry and make a name for yourself in one fell swoop."
"We, the Hussites, can prove our strength to the world."
The generals of the Hussite corps demanded to cooperate with the cavalry of more than 100,000 Huns on the periphery to defeat the cavalry of Chutian and Catherine in one fell swoop.
In their opinion, their own side has an absolute superiority in forces.
"Still can't attack."
Jayska adamantly disagreed to leave the castle.
On the periphery, the Polish cavalry generals who followed the white-robed army gathered 100,000 cavalry from various pastures of the Hun Empire, and joined the 50,000 cavalry sent by the royal city of the Hun Empire, for a total of 150,000 cavalry.
The Hussite Legion of Jayska had about 40,000 troops of all kinds.
Among the 150,000 cavalry, the core was a few thousand Polish hussars, and a few thousand Hun eagle archers.
The Polish generals rode their horses, and behind them were Polish hussars equipped with special wing ornaments, and they were also armed with fine horses, extra-long cavalry spears, and slightly curved sabers.
"The cavalry of the East, do you want to fight a decisive battle?"
This Polish military general had experienced the military strength of the white-robed army when blocking the white-robed army, and he hesitated whether to launch an attack or confront the eastern cavalry like this, as long as he delayed the eastern cavalry and let them throw a mouse.
"General, the cavalry of the East has attacked!"
When the Polish generals hesitated, the white-robed regiment, which had been harassed by him for a long time, took the initiative to attack 150,000 Huns-Polish cavalry!
"Polish hussars, fight!"
The Polish military general drew his sabre for hussars and commanded 150,000 cavalry to meet the white-robed army!
……
In the eastern waters of the British Isles, two huge fleets clashed, and the large Galen ship of the English overturned the longship of the Viking warriors, and the sharp ramming angles tore the Viking longship in two, and the Viking warriors on board fell into the icy sea and lost their combat effectiveness!
The massive Galen ship ran over the heads of the overboard Viking warriors, and the churning currents of the hull made the drowning suffer.
It's winter, and the water is bitterly cold.
In the 16th century Elizabethan era, the legendary captain of the English privateer, Francis Drake, led the recently assembled royal fleet of Charlie, the lord of LinkedIn, to launch a counterattack against the Viking civilization and the invasion of England by Cnut the Great.
Although in the early days of the rise of the barbarians, all civilizations were uncomfortable, but each traditional kingdom and empire, they all had their own characteristics, heroes and heritage, when these traditional civilizations were familiar with the barbarian combat style and intensity, they began to fight back against each barbarian civilization.
The Royal Fleet of England, led by Drake, finally seized the Viking pirate fleet and crushed it with its tall hull and hard ramming angles, and the rockets on the ships burned the Viking ships.
"Avoid engaging in broadside battles with them, the Vikings are good at hand-to-hand combat, real naval battles, they are inferior to our heroic sailors, and the victory belongs to England."
Drake's eyes reflected the surface of the sea where the fire was spreading, and the flaming planks floating on the waves.
Canute the Great's expression must have been angry at this time, and the English did not choose hand-to-hand combat, but used large ships, from the sea, to solve the threat from the Vikings.
"We have fallen into the trap of the English!"
Just as the cunning Drake imagined, the Viking Emperor Cnut, his expression was distorted when he saw the Viking warship destroyed by the Royal Fleet, and the Viking longship shrank a large circle compared to the large Galen ship, and Drake led it to the ambush circle of the Royal Fleet, in order to completely eliminate the Vikings.
