Chapter 839: Assault
() Although the city of Shimla is not particularly well defended, it is not something that can be easily taken by Shang Ji's 100,000 troops.
In the field, these 100,000 elite troops can easily defeat the nearly 2 million defenders in the city of Shimla, but it will be a bit troublesome to conquer the giant city they are stationing.
Therefore, Shang Ji can only choose to infiltrate and lurk and engage in conspiracy and trickery.
A large army of the Pingzhou army lurked in the distance, and Shang Ji personally led two thousand of the most elite troops to secretly infiltrate the city of Shimla.
The infiltration of this thing was originally based on luck, but this time Shang Ji's luck was obviously not good, and he was discovered by a small city gate captain of the enemy army.
However, at the time of exposure, nearly a thousand elites of the Pingzhou army had already entered the vicinity of the city gate, and there were five hundred post-rank shadow clothes secret martial arts using stealth skills to secretly ambush in various key positions, in order to be able to forcibly launch an attack when the plan was exposed!
"Pass the order, let Zilong lead the army to rush here as quickly as possible, and at the same time give Su Huan an order, let him lead the Flying Phoenix Fire Horse to harass the enemy army from the air!"
Glancing at the battlefield, with the cooperation of the shadow clothes and secret weapons, the elite Pingzhou army that infiltrated the city quickly killed the nearby city guards, quickly cleared the scene, and completed the control of the city gate.
Seeing this situation, Shang Ji nodded slightly.
Although the lurk failed, the mission to capture the city gate was ultimately successful. As long as you can take an entry point, with the combat strength of the Pingzhou army, you are not afraid that you will not be able to break through the defense of Shimla City.
"Woo woo woo !!"
The horn sounded, and the other areas finally discovered the anomaly and began to send troops to fight back.
Shang Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, summoned the dragon war horse, opened the second form and flew into the sky.
The dragon flapped its wings upward, and in a breath or two, it came to a high place. Shang Ji raised his eyes and looked, but saw several armies of different sizes appearing on both sides, ranging from one or two thousand to tens of thousands. Without exception, these troops are rushing here with murderous vigour.
The entire city of Shimla has been put under martial law, all the gates have been closed, the defensive equipment on the city walls has begun to work, and Cheng has entered a state of combat readiness.
"The order went down, and Dian Wei and Tizok led five hundred elite soldiers to defend the city gate on the left; Tai Shi Ci and Lilith led 500 men to defend the right city gate. Gengxin kept the dragon posture to support at any time, and the rest of the people stood by! ”
"Yes!"
With Shang Ji's order, everyone took action.
Although the Black Armor Xuancai is the highest-ranking army in the Pingzhou Army, the Black Armor Xuancai is obviously not suitable for this kind of infiltration and lurking work. Therefore, the main force that came with Shang Ji this time was not the black armor Xuancai, but the personal guards of the main generals.
For example, Dian Wei's Three Hundred Evil God Guards, Lilith's Blood Thorn Guard, etc.
The most striking feature of these guards is that they are small in number, but they are high in combat!
Take Lilith's Blood Thorn Guard as an example, most of them are nobles (generals), and the lowest are blood counts, each of whom is loyal to Lilith and can pull out to block the knife at any time, and the only job is to protect Lilith herself.
This kind of guard is found in almost every high-ranking general, but it differs in size and quality. Broadly speaking, the Black Armor Xuanqi can also be said to be Shang Ji's own personal guard.
Although the number of troops attacking was pitiful, the quality was so high that it exploded.
Taking Lilith and Tai Shici as an example, three hundred of them are Lilith's Blood Thorn Guards, with an average first-class military strength, and there are four blood marquis and one blood duke.
The remaining 200 people are from Tai Shi Ci's Burning Sun Divine Guard, the lowest ninth-order soldiers, although there are no top-level generals, there are as many as seven super-first-class generals!
Although the left and right flanks are outnumbered, their momentum is like a rainbow, and they regard the enemy's support troops as nothing, and in the face of the enemy army with dozens of times the superiority of troops, Dian Wei, Tai Shici and others brazenly launched an active charge!
Every time the Evil God Guardian is pulled out, it is a weakened version of Dian Wei, all of them are big-muscled tyrants, wearing three layers of heavy armor, and the heavy and insistent armor can almost ignore the attacks of the regular army. In his hand, he held either heavy weapons such as plate axes, hammers, and flails, or long weapons such as horizontal swords and long lances.
The fighting style is the same as that of Dian Wei, violent and bloody, and the evil god guards are like harvested blood sickles everywhere they go, blood and stumps fly sideways, and as soon as they make contact, they will crush the enemy soldiers on their horses.
Even the hoplites were vulnerable in front of the evil god guards, and often their men and horses were cut in two.
Compared to the Evil God Guard, the battle scenes of the Blood Clan are much more elegant and calm.
Even if the Bloodline is agile in one of its distinctive characteristics, this is even more vividly demonstrated in the high-level Bloodline. The members of the Three Hundred Blood Thorn Guards were as fast as lightning, and a single breath flashed out hundreds of meters.
From the perspective of the Indian army, I could only barely see a red shadow flashing, and then I saw the soldiers in the front row suddenly clutching their necks and falling to the ground. Before he could react, he felt his blood flow backwards, his whole body was sore, and then his neck was cold and he lost his breath.
With the ultra-high speed and the unpredictable blood magic, the high-level blood clan against the conventional army already has a bit of the style of super masters in martial arts to torture and kill cannon fodder.
Although the two armies were small in number, their combat effectiveness soared to the extreme, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the two supporting armies were routed one after another.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
As soon as he defeated the enemy army, he heard a sonic boom in the sky, and Shang Ji raised his eyes to see that it was a thousand flying phoenix fires led by Su Huan.
The thousandth of the most elite flying phoenix fire riders, driving the handsome giant eagles, flying in the air.
"Give Su Huan an order to monitor the surroundings and harass and block the enemy army."
Soon, Su Huan in the sky received an order, and the Flying Phoenix Fire Rider immediately dispersed, with a small team of twenty people, scattering in all directions.
These elite Flying Phoenix Fire are not equipped with high-quality bows and crossbows, and each person also carries a varying number of magic scrolls/Dao talismans, which may be a bit reluctant to annihilate the enemy, but there is no pressure to contain and delay the enemy's march.
Below Shang Ji, there are still a full thousand super-level troops waiting for them, and at the same time, there are many top generals such as Huang Zhong, Wang Shu, and Liu Meng who are eager to try.
"Stomp, stomp!"
The sound of horses' hooves came, and Shang Ji turned around to look, but saw that it was the main vanguard of Pingzhou that had arrived.
"Lord Qi, General Zhao Yun is worried about the danger of the main public, and orders me to wait for the horse to hurry up and take the first step, and Zhao Yunjun and the main force will arrive later!"
Thousands of silver dragon iron horsemen rushed in, and the leading general took a slight breath and reported to Shang Ji.
"Get in line, trim, get ready for battle!"
"Yes!"
Under the conditions of the same level, short distances and fast marches, the Black Armor Xuanqi is not the opponent of the Silver Dragon Iron Cavalry. All the high-level Silver Dragon Iron Cavalry in General Zhao Yun were gathered together, allowing them to quickly support Shang Ji and avoid accidents.
With the addition of thousands of silver dragon iron cavalry, the available forces in the hands of Shang Ji increased exponentially, and the counterattack of the Indian army became even more powerless.
Half an hour later, Shang Ji repelled three Indian counterattacks, and the second wave of support troops of the Pingzhou Army arrived. The addition of 10,000 black-armored Xuanqi made Shang Ji's comprehensive combat strength skyrocket, and he no longer limited his actions to guarding the city gates, but began to take the initiative to attack outward.
More than 10,000 troops divided into three routes and launched an attack on the inside of the city, on the left side of the city gate, and on the right side of the city gate!
