Vol 2 Chapter 811: , Snow Pass
(No check, please check again in ten minutes)
In winter, the snow and ice is a very unsuitable season for marching and fighting, and it is also very unsuitable for siege.
Because the temperature difference between day and night is really too big, if you don't prepare enough, a lot of frostbite will occur if you don't pay attention, and you may even die directly.
Even if they are fully prepared, soldiers cannot hold weapons for a long time in extremely low temperatures.
Therefore, people generally will not conduct large-scale military activities after the snow covers the land.
However, there are always exceptions to everything, and many orcs with natural weapons are not included in this list.
Many orc tribes living in the cold northern regions have thick hair. They are more resistant to freezing than humans and elves.
Because they have natural weapons that can kill people, even in the cold winter can not use those iron weapons, they still have a powerful lethality.
The bear tribe, wild boar, tauren, and tiger tribe, the orc races that have lived in Xinjiang for a long time, are all races that can fight in winter.
After Ma Wanli successfully mobilized the three people of Xiong Dalin, the bear people, tauren and wild boar people living in the Tarim Basin immediately took action. The three tribe warriors mobilized by the three people of Xiong Dalin began to continuously move towards the basin. The central city of Tiger King gathers.
Although the Cavalry Corps of the Condor Army can't help much in the siege, the strong centaur can help the tribe warriors of the siege to transport all kinds of supplies.
As the centaur warriors began to serve as strong labor for transporting supplies, soon 90,000 warriors of the three tribes appeared in the east, west and north directions of the Tiger King City.
Considering that there were only 10,000 tiger guards and more than 10,000 tiger family members in the Tiger King City, Ma Wanli and others chose a three-sided attack.
There are 30,000 warriors of three powerful orc races in each direction. They attacked Tiger King City from three directions at the same time. Then the defenders in Tiger King City must choose to divide their forces to defend the city if they want to protect the city.
Even if the tigers in the Tiger King City are all soldiers, they can only have at most 7,000 in each direction.
Thirty thousand to seven thousand, plus the three clans dispatched are the strongest warriors in the clan, and only the 10,000 tiger guards in the Tiger King City are considered elite, and the other 10,000 are basically women, children and the elderly. , So the siege party has an absolute advantage.
Now that everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng.
Although Ma Wanli and others have not participated in the siege operation, they have never eaten pork, have they not seen a pig run?
Although the army of the three races occupies an absolute advantage in number, the tall wall of the Tiger King City has always been an obstacle that is difficult to overcome.
From ancient times to the present, the defenders of the city have been occupying the right place, and they can use the tall walls to defeat enemies several times their own.
Therefore, it is not that the siege party has more people than the defender, and the city can definitely be broken.
To break through a fortified city, you not only need to have a large number of warriors, but also must have advanced siege equipment, otherwise it will be difficult to shake a tall city even if the number of the siege party is large.
Originally, Ma Wanli believed that there would be no shortage of advanced siege equipment in the Tarim Basin, because Hu Xiaotian had already used a siege tower when he attacked Xiaoguan.
However, after seeing the simple siege ladder carried by the warriors of the three races, Ma Wanli and the generals of the Condor Army immediately frowned.
"Patriarch Xiong Dalin, are you going to use these ladders to attack the city?" After finding Xiong Dalin, Ma Wanli immediately asked the doubt in his heart.
Seeing Ma Wanli's brows furrowed, Xiong Dalin immediately asked, "What's wrong? General Ma, can't these ladders work?"
"Hey."
After sighing, Ma Wanli asked, "Isn't Linhai Empire already able to build a siege tower by itself?"
After hearing Ma Wanli’s question, Xiong Dalin suddenly showed a bitter expression and replied: "General Ma, you don’t know. Although Hu Xiaotian recruited a large number of craftsmen from other races, those craftsmen have always followed the tiger. In Xiaotian's army, those of us would never see those craftsmen.
Don't be afraid of your jokes, in Linhai Empire, besides the tiger tribe, the biggest tasks of other races are mining, logging, collecting medicine and grazing.
Those of us don't even have a decent weapon, let alone the siege equipment that can threaten Tiger King City.
Hu Xiaotian is worried that after we have weapons, we will be unwilling, so we have never touched other iron weapons except the iron pickaxe for mining and the axe for logging.
But if Hu Xiaotian treats us a little bit better, we will not directly submit to the Condor Empire. "
Xiong Dalin told Ma Wanli the helplessness of the other orc races in the Linhai Empire, which is why they would just surrender without a fight.
After hearing Xiong Dalin's explanation, Ma Wanli pondered for a moment, and then immediately ordered to the centaur guard next to him: "Hans, you immediately send two small groups of cavalry to notify the troops in the other two directions and let them suspend their attack on the city.
By the way, let the two patriarchs, Niu Dashi and Zhu Dachang, come to us, and I thought of a good way to siege the city to discuss with them. "
After seeing the tall Tiger Warriors in the Tiger King City in the distance, he looked at the ladder in the hands of the Bear Warriors. Ma Wanli had no confidence in breaking the Tiger King City, so he decisively stopped the siege that was about to begin. action.
If these 90,000 orc warriors are the regular army of the Condor Army, then there is still a slight chance of breaking the Tiger King City, and in the big deal, they will exchange their lives with the enemy and fight attrition wars.
But if it were the three tribal warriors that were temporarily recruited, there would be no possibility for a long time.
Because once their loss is too great, then the three of Xiong Dalin will definitely retreat.
Therefore, if you want to break the Tiger King City, you must first smooth out the Tiger King City's wall advantage, otherwise, even if tens of thousands of people come, relying on those simple siege ladders, it is impossible to break the Tiger King City.
After receiving Ma Wanli's notice, Niu Dashi, Zhu Dachang, Ivan and Wolf Wudi quickly rushed to the camp of the bear men.
Seeing that the main personnel were all there, Ma Wanli immediately said: "Everyone, the walls of Tiger King City are tall and strong. If we only rely on those simple siege ladders, as long as there are hundreds of tiger soldiers on the wall, then It is impossible for us to break the Tiger King City."
Seeing that Niu Dashi and Zhu Dachang were both unhappy after hearing what he said, Ma Wanli explained with a smile:
"Don't be upset about the three patriarchs. I don't mean to despise the warriors of your three clans, but because the defenders occupy the advantage of geographical advantages. They can indeed fight more with less.
If it were on flat ground, then the 90,000 warriors of your three tribes would naturally be able to easily crush the 10,000 tiger guards in the city.
But if you attack from the bottom up, the enemy on the wall only needs a few people to stare at a ladder, and you can easily prevent our warriors from climbing the wall.
Because our warriors can only climb up one by one, but the enemy can surround us with three or four people.
Therefore, if we want to break the Tiger King City with minimal losses, we must find a way to wipe out the Tiger King City's wall advantage. "
After listening to Ma Wanli’s explanation, the outspoken pig Dachang immediately asked: "General Ma, we only have this kind of simple ladder in our hands, and we can only make this kind of simple ladder. Could someone in your army make those tall ones? Siege Tower?"
Looking at Zhu Dachang, Ma Wanli shook his head and said, "I don't have that kind of talent in my army, but even if there is no siege tower, I still have a way to smooth out the wall advantage of Tiger King City."
Hearing that Ma Wanli has a way, Zhu Dachang said immediately: "Since General Ma has a way, please speak quickly."
After clearing his throat, Ma Wanli said in a deep voice: "Everyone, it has just fallen a heavy snow, and the temperature outside is extremely low. We took a scoop of water outside and it would soon freeze into ice.
The method I thought of was to use the ubiquitous snow and ice around Tiger King City to artificially build a channel that can lead directly to the city wall. "
"Those tiger warriors on the city wall won't just watch us build an ice and snow tunnel?" Niu Dashi asked as soon as Ma Wanli's voice fell.
After rushing at Niu Dashi, Ma Wanli replied: "The enemy on the city wall will definitely not watch us build the ice and snow tunnel under the city wall.
However, as far as I know, the only long-range attack method for the Tiger Warriors is the throwing axe, and each Tiger Warrior has a limited number of throwing axes.
So as long as we can withstand their first few waves of throwing axes, after throwing all the throwing axes, the tiger warriors on the wall can only watch us build outside unless they take the initiative to attack. Ice and snow passage.
It is very easy to prevent the tiger warriors from throwing axe attacks. My Centaur has a lot of shields. We can also use wooden planks and animal skins to make some simple anti throwing axe baffles.
In a while, I will send someone to send the shields to the three patriarchs. The three patriarchs can select a team of warriors to form a shield formation specifically to defend against the enemy's throwing axe attack. "
"General Ma, you think this method sounds very good, but we will not build the ice and snow tunnel you mentioned." Zhu Dachang said helplessly.
Seeing that Xiong Dalin and Niu Dashi were equally stunned, Ma Wanli patted his forehead helplessly, and then explained:
"This ice and snow tunnel is actually very simple. We only need to collect the nearby snow, compact it with wooden boards, and then pour some water on it.
In order to facilitate our soldiers to launch an assault on the ice and snow tunnel, we need to build an ice and snow **** in the direction away from the city wall, and then cut out the ladder that is conducive to climbing on the slope.
Since the snow tunnel is very slippery, we also need to spread a layer of soil and licorice on it so that our fighters will not slip when they charge.
Ivan, old wolf, do you two understand? "
Seeing that the three of Xiong Dalin still had a bewildered expression, Ma Wanli could only turn his gaze to his two colleagues.
"understood."
"understand."
After getting a clear answer, Ma Wanli nodded and said, "Well, everyone, let's return to our respective areas. The three of us will guide you to build the ice and snow passages.
After the construction of the ice and snow passages in the three directions is completed, we will also launch an attack on the Tiger King City at the same time, striving to take the Tiger King City down in one go. "
......
The six were divided into three groups. After each returned to the area in charge, they immediately arranged for their subordinates to collect ice and snow everywhere.
In winter, since the temperature is very low, the ice and snow are very sticky, so they can be used as the clay of the barrier.
After personally instructing the soldiers to nail the wooden wall used to fix the ice and snow, Ma Wanli and others immediately ordered the soldiers to pour a large amount of ice and snow between the wooden walls, and then began to compact, water and re Compact and water again.
At the beginning, because the place where the ice and snow passage was built was a bit far from the city wall, the tiger soldiers on the front of the city just watched quietly.
As the wooden wall continued to move towards the city wall, soon the soldiers who built the ice and snow passage entered the attack range of the tiger soldiers.
Under the command of the headed Tiger Guardian, the Tiger Warriors immediately began to use throwing axes to attack the siege soldiers who built the ice and snow passages under the city wall.
In this regard, the siege soldiers had long been prepared.
After seeing the actions of the tigers, the soldiers who were specifically responsible for defending the enemy's long-range attacks immediately raised their shields and huge wooden boards.
With a banging sound, all the throwing axes thrown by the tiger warriors were blocked by dense shields and wooden boards.
"Have you not eaten enough? Give me a little effort!"
After seeing the first round of flying axe attack without any results, the tiger guard on the city head immediately let out an angry roar.
After being scolded by their immediate boss, the Tiger Warriors all used their strength when throwing axe again.
This time the throwing axe attack is indeed a lot better than the last one, and many throwing axes are firmly embedded in the plank.
However, in the face of a thick shield ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the power of those small throwing axes can only be so. Except that they can shake the shield-holding soldier's arm a little, they can't penetrate under the city wall. Dense shield array.
After seeing that the second attack still did not achieve much effect, the tiger defenders on the wall were suddenly angry, and they continued to throw throwing axes at the enemy under the wall.
Seeing that the tiger defenders on the city wall had lost their minds, Ma Wanli and others laughed happily, because their most feared throwing axe attack would soon be no longer a threat.
As Ma Wanli expected, soon, the throwing axe on the waist of the Tiger Warriors was thrown out.
When the Tiger Warriors discovered that the throwing axe had been thrown out, they could only continue to watch the ice and snow tunnel built by the enemy approach the city wall little by little.
After the last section of the ice and snow passage was built against the stones thrown from the city wall, a passage nearly 100 meters long and more than 20 meters wide was directly connected to the city wall of King Tiger City.
