He was busy with state affairs, and it would be too exhausting for him to personally rush to the front lines every time there was an invasion.
It was no wonder he had previously suffered from overwork.
Having come to this realization, Lu Gi decided to relax a bit.
His commanders were not incompetent.
He needed to trust their abilities.
Worrying about everything was also a sign of his player s affliction.
After giving all the orders, he finished his nutritious and healthy lunch, which had hardly any greasy food.
Then stretched and said to his guard captain, "Hilian, I'm going to float on the lake for a bit.
" During the fishing ban, Mingjing Lake was very peaceful, making it the best place for Lu Gi to take a break.
Lying on a wooden raft and drifting with the current became one of his main leisure activities.
It was undeniable that this relaxed state allowed his thoughts to become clearer, helping him organize his future development plans.
Meanwhile, on the grasslands at White Horse City, things were far from peaceful.
After three consecutive days of siege, the merchant army showed a strong determination to breach the city gates, clearly gearing up for a serious assault after a round of reconnaissance.
This was actually a strategy arranged by Lin Lei.
It was only a matter of time before the enemy discovered their identity, but it was better to delay it as long as possible to reduce Luo G's preparation time.
Therefore, this time, while the merchant army was conducting reconnaissance, they were also taking things somewhat seriously.
After all, if they could truly breach a city, plunder some resources, or even eliminate Luog and claim Lu Ya's reward, why wouldn't they want to? Not to mention that they had discovered a valuable resource point, Warhorse resources.
In the cold weapon era, raising cavalry was not easy.
To some extent, apart from a few special troop types, cavalry were the most resource inensive units to maintain.
Any player would likely not hesitate to seize warhorse resources, and he was no exception.
Continue the siege.
Advance.
Advance.
At this moment, the merchant army was eager to occupy the stables within the city.
This was definitely an unexpected delight.
With a vision provided by the telescope, Bise watched the enemy troops continuously attacking the gates of White Horse City, frowning deeply.
Isn't bridge here yet? Although the enemy's siege forces were not particularly strong, White Horse City could not hold out much longer against such continuous assaults.
Bise's light cavalry and bridgegues archery cavalry were capable of independent operations on the grasslands.
To avoid interfering with each other, they usually operated separately.
However, this time facing the enemy's highly targeted contradictory combination, charging head-on would be essentially a dead end.
Bise's light cavalry undoubtedly needed some cover.
For the sake of caution, the precious defensive forces of White Horse City could not be easily deployed.
Wild Horse City and Eagle City had no surplus infantry to support them, and the number of infantry on the grasslands was already limited.
If the next wave of attacks failed or an unexpected situation arose resulting in the loss of infantry forces, White Horse City would surely fall along with its people and resources.
They could not afford such risks.
Thus, at this moment, Bise could only patiently wait for Bridgegu's archery cavalry to arrive and provide cover.
In a chapter, chapter 324 contradictory combination part two.
Meanwhile, at the other end, Zhaoang, a member of the escort team, leaving Mingjing city with a half- bronze military talisman from Laja, changed two fast horses along the way.
He hurriedly spurred the horses and finally arrived outside Iron Wall City before sunset.
Who goes there? Announce your name.
I am Zhaot, a knife wielding guard of his majesty.
And here is his majesty's military talisman.
Open the city gates quickly.
As Zhaong shouted, he raised the bronze military talisman high in his hand.
Hearing this shout, Zhao E, who was patrolling the city wall at that moment, immediately lifted his binoculars to confirm, then waved his hand to quickly open the city gates.
The gates of Iron Wall City slowly rose.
After Zhao Tang entered, a group of people led by Ziao Pan.
Lu Jang and Zhao quickly approached.
Ziao Pan with a steady demeanor clasped his fist and said, "This is a matter of great importance.
Brotherhot Tang, may I see that military talisman?" The general is being polite, please.
As Xiao Pan and Lu Jang were veteran generals under Loajia, their status needed no further elaboration.
Even other generals within the civilization would treat them with extra respect, let alone Zhao.
After receiving the bronze military talisman from Zhaoang and taking a look, Ziaopan immediately recognized its design and handed it to Lu Jang.
Clearly, in order to avoid impersonation and confusion in this era of cold weapons, each general was issued a different military talisman.
And this half bronze military talisman undoubtedly corresponded to Lu Jang.
After Lu Jang received a half bronze military talisman, he quickly took out the other half from his bosom, combined the two, and after confirming it was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then his gaze fell back on Zhao Song, asking, "What orders does his majesty have?" The imperial decree commands the city defenders Lu Jang and Zhao e of Iron Wall City to mobilize troops and set out soon to reinforce Bama City.
I, Lu Jang Zhao, accept the order.
Divider.
As time passed on a grassland outside Bama City, a new round of siege warfare began again.
The foreign invaders continuous assaults made it increasingly difficult for the defending forces of Bama City to hold their ground.
Just as Bise was pondering whether to expose his whereabouts to attract the attention of enemy troops, thus causing them to hesitate and slow down their siege.
A cry of an eagle came from the distant sky.
Upon hearing the sound, before Baise could react, his beloved white eagle had already taken to the sky.
Looking up at the two circling eagles above let out a sigh of relief.
It was the golden eagle led by Burriud.
That guy finally arrived, setting aside their mutual dislike for each other.
No one could deny the strength of the cavalry archers led by Burriud.
And he indeed needed the protection of the cavalry archers.
now over there.
He glanced into the distance at the direction where the golden eagle was circling.
Burriu leading his cavalry archers quickly approached.
The moment the enemy troops came into his view, Burri frowned.
He could clearly feel that this group was not easy to deal with.
The large shields and sharp spears could effectively curb the charges of the light cavalry, making it quite targeted against Ba's light cavalry troops.
However, for his cavalry archers, this was also a tricky target.
Suddenly losing the mood to mock B, Burugi waved his hand, issuing orders for everyone to adopt a hanging shot attack, a rain of arrows fell from the sky, directly striking the merchant army's siege troops, causing some casualties among his soldiers.
Have the reinforcements arrived in the face of this wave of arrow attacks? The merchant army remained relatively calm.
After all, they were experienced veterans in the bronze segment and would not be thrown into disarray by a single wave of attacks.
Calculating the time, it was entirely normal for the opposing players reinforcements to appear.
If they did not, that would be strange.
Shield soldiers all raise shields for defense.
A mere reign of arrows posed no real threat to the merchant army.
The dominance of archers on the battlefield was basically limited to the ancient times without ranks.
Back then, if you could muster a squad of archers, you could largely do as you pleased.
However, with the emergence and upgrade of armor, the dominance of this ranged unit on the battlefield had clearly begun to decline.
The iron wallike shield formation made Burriod's muscles twitch in irritation.
This wave, his cavalry archers could undoubtedly only provide cover for that guy by Zay.
With this thought, Burugi waved his hand, leading his soldiers to begin their best strategy of mounted shooting, moving while continuously firing arrows, aiming to add some hindrance to the enemy's large shield troops.
However, as this tactic unfolded, their figures inevitably became exposed to the enemy's sight.
Damn, cavalry archers.
The sudden emergence of the cavalry archers made the merchant army feel a wave of envy.
They initially thought it was just archers, but it turned out to be cavalry archers.
It is no exaggeration to say that this unit combining mobility and range advantages undoubtedly had the capability to hinder them.
At the same time, forming such a cavalry archery unit was not easy.
It required a significant investment of time and resources.
Now, a shortcut lay before his eyes.
As long as he could break through Bama City behind him, he could probably have everything in an instant.
The merchant army viewed the rear Bama City as a giant treasure chest that made them drool.
They had to take the city down and then seize all the population and resources inside.
