Chapter 143: Enemy at the Gate

Wu Qing emphasized military law, not to send the alliance's army to perform difficult combat missions, but to fear that some territorial armies would get emotional and rush forward fearlessly.

"Meng, you can select some elite troops to assist the Zerg in attacking the city!"

"Other troops are on high alert, and it is strictly forbidden to participate in the battle privately!"

Wu Qing said to Meng.

There are many elite troops in the armies of the five major territories of the alliance and some well-developed territories, especially those that have been strengthened recently. These elite troops have good combat effectiveness and can play a certain role on the battlefield.

For ordinary territorial troops, going to the battlefield to fight with the Zerg can only be regarded as a burden, unless they are watched to die.

Instead of letting them die, it is better to strengthen their momentum, see more of the Zerg's strength and bravery, and contribute to the development and growth of the Zerg in other ways.

"Yes!"

"I will select the elite now! Build a combat-ready army!"

Meng and Hu Wei took the alliance lord to receive the order and left.

There are still many types of soldiers in the alliance army that are capable of fighting, such as the tiger cavalry, feather archers, elephant infantry, cattle infantry, and leopard infantry of the Tiger Territory, the feather archers and feather archers of Wutong Village, the stone heavy infantry of Black Stone Castle, the elite wolf cavalry of Bailangyuan, the fox cavalry of Hujiaqiu, and various powerful ethnic arms.

There are also many territories that have their own elite troops formed by the lords. With the dual support of Zerg energy coins and sophisticated equipment, these elite troops have greatly increased their strength and are about to show their skills.

With the help of the alliance lords, these elite troops will soon be dispatched from the armies of various territories to form a joint force.

The alliance lords whose troops are selected will personally serve as the commanders of their elite troops. They will hand over the territory army to their deputies and personally follow the elite troops to fight.

On the battlefield, there is still a big difference between participating in the war and not participating in the war. If there is a chance to participate in the war, these alliance lords are willing to go into battle in person.

This is also the reason why Wu Qing repeatedly emphasized military law. In this world, going to the battlefield is beneficial. It is not ruled out that some alliance lords are obsessed with sending troops to join the war without authorization when they see an advantage.

However, these alliance lords personally led the team to join the elite troops formed by Meng. This is no problem. This will facilitate Meng's command of this temporary force.

The strength of each lord is not weak, and with their personal guards, this is also an important combat force.

...

When the alliance army was forming the participating troops, the Zerg army had already begun to move.

Wu Qing left 200,000 Zerg troops at the headquarters, and all other Zerg puppies were sent out to start cleaning up and fully monitoring the surrounding areas of the goblin city.

All suspicious targets were not let go, and the connection between the goblin city and the outside world was completely cut off.

The commanders of the sensitive evil god camp seemed to have noticed something, and the huge city that became the camp of the evil god camp army began to be lively.

This city was originally a large city of the Tengu clan, much larger than the Mengzhong City, with tall walls and complete defense facilities. It is a defensive fortress that can be fully utilized.

Even if Wu Qing dispatched 500,000 troops, it would not be realistic to completely surround the city, so he could only attack head-on.

The army of these evil gods had no concept of escape, so Wu Qing only needed to guard against the escape of high-level officials such as priests.

The Zerg wanted to attack the city, and Wu Qing had learned about the siege equipment in this world. This world had siege equipment, and there were many types, and many siege equipment were very powerful.

But those powerful siege equipment can only be made by strong races like goblins who are good at making things, and they are expensive, difficult to transport, and extremely inconvenient to use.

They generally will not be used unless it is an extremely important battle.

There are also ordinary siege equipment, but because the individual strength of this world is generally strong, there are many giant races, and the combat effectiveness of general siege equipment is not high, and in many cases it is not as effective as the giant throwing stones.

This makes it difficult to see the two sides deploy siege equipment, especially in this remote area, where there is not only a lack of technology but also a lack of related materials.

When he learned that he was going to attack the city, Hu Wei also told Wu Qing that he had several simple trebuchets and asked Wu Qing if he wanted to take them.

Wu Qing asked the host to take a look and learned about the performance of the simple trebuchet, and rejected Hu Wei's proposal.

This simple trebuchet is not only large in size, difficult to transport and assemble, but also has poor attack range and power. If the enemy uses this trebuchet to attack the Zerg, a few hydralisks can knock down the thrown stones.

The stone balls thrown by the trebuchet fly slowly and cannot hit moving targets. Attacking fixed targets such as city walls, the power is too weak and almost has no effect.

This kind of thing is a burden to bring.

"Miss the cannon!"

Wu Qing missed the weapons in the system's affiliated world.

If the powerful artillery of the human race can be taken out, such a city will be a live target, just bombard it!

But these ideas are not realistic.

Instead of expecting human artillery, it is better to expect the Zerg's combat unit, the Air Guard. The buildings of interstellar races cannot withstand a few artillery attacks from the Air Guard. With the city defense of this world, it is estimated that it can be destroyed with one shot!

Thinking of the various powerful units of the Zerg, Wu Qing's thoughts returned to the battlefield.

"Fight well and work hard to upgrade!"

In fact, whether there is a shortcut to attack the city or not has little impact on the Zerg.

For the Zerg dogs, the city wall is not much different from the peaceful land. The traditional city wall defense method has limited effect on the Zerg.

On the contrary, the city wall limits the manpower input of the defender. It is still difficult to say whether a strong city is an advantage or a disadvantage in front of the Zerg.

…

The elite alliance troops formed by Meng are about to take shape, and the Zerg's 200,000 frontal main attack army begins to move towards the target.

The army's assembly point is not far from the city of the evil god camp. The mighty Zerg army soon came to the target city and formed a line.

The ordinary army of the alliance territory followed behind the Zerg army, arranging troops at a safe distance, and looked very decent.

The newly formed elite alliance troops had no time to reorganize, and under Meng's order, the lords led their own teams to follow up.

They regrouped on the right side of the Zerg army, integrated according to the territory and the race of the soldiers, and quickly integrated this temporary army into a whole.

This is a great test of organizational and command capabilities, and Meng and Hu Wei are both capable of doing it.

Considering that Wu Qing would not let this elite alliance army charge into battle, and mainly provide long-range support, Meng and Hu Wei took this as the basis and made reasonable formations for this elite alliance army whose members can all carry out long-range attacks.
