Chapter 327: Offensive and Defensive Battles (1)
Chenyang District is fertile and wild, from the perspective of the city itself, is a very suitable area for development, but from a military point of view, it is not very good, from the southeast twelve counties after the Yanyang Pass, here is the only barrier to the Chenyang District, after this pass, it is the plain area of a horse and Pingchuan, and there is no danger to defend at all, Chenyang Nine Counties has not been warn for many years, although the high wall and iron gate, but the geographical advantage is not big.
And once the other party enters the plain area and turns the surrounding towns into blood fields, the other party will at least be in an invincible position, because the cavalry of the chaotic clan comes and goes like the wind, as long as the Yanyang Pass is lost, even if they don't capture the nine counties, they can continue to harass you, so that you can only shrink into the city defense and fall into passivity!
Blind defense has always been an inferior means in the way of using troops, Carter, as a qualified general, naturally tries to avoid this situation, and she has to support Guo Lang as soon as possible, that is to say, although the territory of Chenyang District is very large, but the location of the decisive battle between the two sides is actually only in that Yanyang Pass!
Under the city gate, Canaan led a team of blood-soaked knights to the pass, looked up at the last checkpoint in the southeast region, and sure enough, the other party gathered all the precautions here as he expected!
Yanyang Pass is a pure fortification building level, and those who rely on geographical advantages, set up according to danger, and hold the strategic throat of the level, because of the area of this piece of land causes it to have no dangerous place to defend, at the beginning of the Rus Empire, in order to prevent the nobles of the southeast county from rebelling, spent huge resources and people's power, established the most magnificent Xiongguan of the Rus Empire, although it is not the most dangerous, but it is the most grandiose, the most atmospheric level!
This kind of checkpoint has advantages and disadvantages, but all dangerous passes are all one-man passes, and ten thousand people are not open, but on the other hand, it is also said that there is not much difference between a few people guarding the pass and dozens of people guarding the pass, and the role of the superiority of troops is not very important in that kind of dangerous checkpoint.
And this kind of atmospheric level is different, he needs to defend heavily, because the level defense line area is large, the horizontal line space is relatively long, and the required troops are naturally a lot, so although the demand has become larger, but if his own troops are sufficient, there is a certain advantage.
Especially for archers, this kind of big pass, when the area is large, it seems that the defense will be relatively disadvantaged, but if the strength is sufficient, then after the defense facilities are rolled out, the external lethality is also very strong.
For example, the archers on the general city wall are always limited, but because of the large area on the gate, the combat effectiveness of the archers will be strengthened after they are spread out, plus Carter's broken crossbows and ancient guards, because of the wide terrain, the firepower will naturally be maximized!
"Tsk" Canaan shook his head: "It's really not a simple role to choose a place!" "The chaotic clan is a race that takes the elite route, unlike Naga and the undead who have so much cannon fodder to consume, and it is actually very disadvantageous to fight this kind of big city, and it can't be spread out to fight, and it is easy to be set on fire if it is concentrated, which is a bit troublesome
"Pull it out!" Canaan suddenly raised his hand behind him, and a sinister smile flashed on the faces of the soldiers behind him, and after a while, countless humans who had been tortured to the point of being inhuman were captured like piglets!
Carter, who was on the city wall, narrowed his eyes slightly after looking at those people, she could see that those who were caught had the family emblem of her Merinos family on their bodies, although they had expected it, but when they really faced it, Carter's chest was still bored!
"Villainous behavior!" Carter said in a cold voice with an expressionless face, but Canaan under the city gate flashed a sneer, although the other party had a cold face, but if he really didn't care, he wouldn't open his mouth!
He waved his hand with a cruel smile, only to see the soldiers in the back row tie up those hardcover men tightly, and suddenly pulled out the other party's hamstrings, although those people have been enduring it, but this cold still made them scream, and instantly lost their center of gravity and knelt on the ground!
Then Carter saw a terrible scene, those strong men with red faces and fangs, who looked like they were all muscular, suddenly took out a kind of iron hoop, put it on the heads of those prisoners who knelt down just now, and took out a small hammer and beat it gently!
Carter's vision is excellent, although she can still see clearly from such a distance, the gap between the iron hoop and the scalp seems to have a wooden wedge, when the hammer is gently struck, the iron hoop will be tightened more and more, the tortured person's eyes are full of hideous, the pain is like a knife, and even the skull is cracked and the brain overflows, not to mention the tortured, even the people watching from the side feel some illusion that the skull is about to be cracked!
Carter's eyes flashed with cold light, although the picture was cruel, but she never looked away, but very seriously, very clearly engraved this scene in her heart, she has never been a person who will escape, no matter how cruel the reality is, Carter will face it!
"It's a little interesting" Canaan sneered, and suddenly waved his hand, this time it was the children, women and children who pulled out from behind, and the other party had not moved, and the soldiers on the city wall were already staring at each other, Canaan took in the anger in the eyes of those people on the city wall, and secretly sneered in his heart.
In this world, whether from the perspective of morality or biological nature, the slaughter of the old and young wives and children of their own race is the most intolerable existence!
Under the clear sky, the cries of women and children were not exchanged for the slightest mercy, and the women and children were stripped naked, like showing animals, and those people were turned in circles, and the women tried their best to protect the children and beg for mercy, but in exchange for more cruel torture on the other side.
It's not that Carter has never seen torture, but like this, the little devil with a woman's lower body is pierced and her limbs are nailed with iron nails, and the little devil with a sharp beak monkey cheek uses a crescent-shaped scimitar to neatly peel off the human skin from the skull, and although the tortured person is convulsed in pain, he is neither dead nor unconscious under the devil's delicate manipulation!
After the human skin faded away, the flesh and blood blurred surface meridians were revealed, and the other party was pulling out the soft tendons, and suddenly the blood flew sideways, but no matter how tortured, the tortured person could maintain a clear consciousness, and the children were frightened and cried when they saw their mother suffering such a terrible criminal law, and the people on the city wall closed their eyes one by one, and couldn't bear to see this tragic scene!
"What are you doing with your eyes closed?" Carter's cold voice suddenly resounded throughout the audience: "If you close your eyes, won't these things happen?" Can you escape with your eyes closed? ”
The crowd was silent
"Open your eyes for me, take a good look, this scene is for you, and those people died so miserably because of you! Because they want to break your will, they will leave these people to be tortured in public, without you they will not suffer all this, since they have no ability to rush down to save people, then carry this life, life, owe, just pay it back! ”
Everyone's expressions froze, and after trembling, they all opened their eyes again, this time they did not have that kind of distorted anger, but they were as cold as Carter, but that cold temperament was even more frightening!
Like a beast that chooses to devour people, Canaan below and a number of high-level demons suddenly shrank their pupils, the Fauvists have a strong sense of their kind, and they know that the beasts that can't scream are often the most terrifying!
"Hehe, it's really a character!" The sneer on Canaan's face became even stronger, he clapped his hands loudly, and suddenly there was an excited roar from the rear, and then it was an old man who was tortured to the point that he was not human!
Although it was already somewhat unrecognizable, Carter recognized it as the current head of the Merinos family and her grandfather: Archduke Alexandra!
