Chapter 839: Assault
Although the defense of Simla City is not particularly strict, it is not something that can be easily captured by a 100,000 army.
In the field, the 100,000 elite troops can easily defeat the nearly 2 million defenders in Simla City, but it will be a bit troublesome to conquer the giant city garrisoned by them.
Therefore, Shang Ji can only choose to infiltrate and lurk, and engage in conspiracy and tricks.
The Pingzhou army was lurking in the distance, and Shang Ji personally led two thousand of the most elite troops to sneak into the city of Simla secretly.
Lurking and infiltrating is something that depends on luck. This time, Shang Ji's luck was obviously not very good, and a small captain of the enemy's city gate discovered the clue.
However, when it was exposed, nearly a thousand Pingzhou army elites had already entered the vicinity of the city gate, and there were still 500 advanced Shadow Clothes Secret Warriors who used their stealth skills to secretly ambush in various key positions, in order to be able to forcibly attack the city when the plan was exposed. Attack!
"Send the order to let Zilong lead the army to come here as quickly as possible, and at the same time send an order to Su Huan to lead the flying phoenix and fire cavalry to harass the enemy from the air!"
Glancing at the battlefield, with the cooperation of Yingyi and Miwu, the elite Pingzhou army that infiltrated the city quickly beheaded 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 lurking failed, the task of capturing the city gate was finally successful. As long as an entry point can be obtained, with the strength of the Pingzhou Army, it is not afraid that they will not be able to break through the defense of Simla City.
"Woooooooooo!!!"
The continuous sound of horns sounded, and other regions finally discovered the anomaly here, and began to send troops to counterattack here.
Shang Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, summoned the Lilong Warhorse, and flew into the sky in the second form.
Li Long flapped his wings and reached a high place within one or two breaths. Shang Ji raised his eyes and saw several armies of different sizes appearing on both sides, ranging from one or two thousand to tens of thousands. Without exception, these armies are rushing here with a murderous look.
And the entire city of Simla has been under martial law, all the city gates have been closed, and the defensive equipment on the city wall has also started to work, and the whole process has entered a state of combat readiness.
"Dianwei and Tizoke will lead five hundred elite soldiers to defend the left city gate; Tai Shici and Lilith will lead five hundred men to defend the right city gate. Geng Xin maintains the posture of a giant dragon to support at any time, and the rest stand by!"
"yes!"
Following Shang Ji's order, everyone jumped into action.
Although the Black Armored Xuanqi is the highest-ranking army in Pingzhou, the Black Armored Xuanqi 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-armored Xuanqi, but the personal guards of the main generals.
For example, Dianwei's three hundred evil god guards, Lilith's blood thorn guards, etc.
The most notable feature of these guards is that they are small in number but have high combat effectiveness!
Take Lilith's Blood Thorn Guards as an example. Most of them are nobles (generals), and the lowest are blood counts. Everyone is loyal to Lilith and can be pulled out to block knives at any time. The only job is to Keep Lilith herself safe.
Almost every high-ranking general has this kind of Guards, but there are differences in size and quality. In a broad sense, the Black Armored Xuanqi can also be said to be Shang Ji's personal guard.
Although the number of troops sent out is pitiful, the quality is so high that it explodes.
Take the right wing dominated by Lilith and Tai Shici as an example,
Three hundred of them are Lilith's blood thorn guards, with average first-class military strength, including four blood marquises and one blood duke.
The remaining 200 people came from Tai Shici's Lieyang Divine Guard, the lowest rank nine soldiers, although there are no top generals, there are as many as seven super first-class generals!
Although there are few troops on the left and right wings, their momentum is like a rainbow, and they regard the enemy's support troops as nothing. Facing the enemy with dozens of times the strength of the enemy, Dian Wei, Tai Shici and others brazenly launched an active charge!
Every one of the guards of the evil gods is a weakened version of Dian Wei, all of them big muscles, wearing three layers of black iron heavy armor, and the thick and persistent armor can almost ignore the attacks of regular troops. What they hold in their hands are either heavy weapons such as axes, hammers, and flails, or long weapons such as horizontal knives and long lances.
The fighting style is exactly the same as Dian Wei's, violent and bloody. Wherever the guards of the evil gods go are like harvesting blood scythes, blood and stumps are flying everywhere, and the enemy's killers will be defeated as soon as they come into contact.
Even the heavy cavalry are vulnerable to the guards of the evil gods, and they are often cut in half with a knife.
Compared with the guardian of the evil god, the battle scenes of the blood clan are much more elegant and calm.
One of the distinguishing characteristics of the vampires is their agility, which is especially evident in the high-level vampires. The members of the Thorn Guards of Three Hundred Bloods were as fast as lightning, flashing hundreds of meters with one breath.
From the perspective of the Indian army, they could barely see a red shadow flashing past, and then the soldiers in the front row suddenly fell to the ground clutching their necks. Before I could react, I felt the blood flow backwards, my whole body was sore and limp, and then my neck became cold and I lost my breath.
With the super high speed and the weird and unpredictable blood magic, the high-level blood race against the regular army is already quite a bit like a super master killing cannon fodder in martial arts novels.
Although the numbers of the two armies were small, their fighting power was soaring to the extreme. In less than a quarter of an hour, the two support armies were defeated one after another.
"Boom boom boom..."
Just after defeating the enemy army, he heard sonic booms in the sky. Shang Ji raised his eyes and saw that a thousand flying phoenix fire cavalry led by Su Huan had arrived.
One thousand of the most elite flying phoenix and fire cavalry, driving a very handsome giant eagle, hovered in the air.
"Send an order to Su Huan to monitor the surroundings and harass and stop the enemy."
Soon, Su Huan in the sky received the order, and the flying phoenix and fire cavalry dispersed immediately, in a small group of twenty people, and spread out in all directions.
These elite flying phoenix fire cavalry are not equipped with high-quality bows and crossbows, and each of them also carries a number of magic scrolls/talismans. It may be a bit reluctant to use them to destroy the enemy, but there is no pressure to contain and delay the enemy's march. .
Below Shang Ji, there are still a thousand super-level troops waiting in formation, and at the same time, there are many top fighters such as Huang Zhong, Wang Shu, and Liu Meng eager to try.
"Tap Tat Tat!"
There was a sound of horseshoes, and Shang Ji turned around to look, but saw that the main vanguard of Pingzhou had arrived.
"My lord, General Zhao Yun is worried about the danger of the lord, so he ordered me to hurry up and take the first step. Zhao Yun's army and the main force will arrive later!"
Thousands of silver dragon cavalry galloped in, and the leading general took a breath to report to Shangjihui.
"Enroll, repair, and prepare for battle!"
"yes!"
Under the conditions of the same level, the black-armored Xuanqi is not the opponent of the silver-armored cavalry. All the high-ranking silver dragon cavalry in General Zhao Yun gathered together to let them quickly support Shang Ji to avoid accidents.
With the addition of thousands of silver dragon cavalry, Shang Ji's mobilized troops doubled, and the Indian army's counterattack became even more powerless.
Half an hour later, Shang Ji repelled the Indian army's counterattack three times, and the second wave of support troops from the Pingzhou Army arrived. The joining of 10,000 black-armored black knights greatly increased Shang Ji's comprehensive combat power. He no longer limited his actions to guarding the city gate, but began to actively attack outwards.
More than 10,000 troops were divided into three groups, attacking the city, the left side of the city gate, and the right side of the city gate respectively!
