Chapter 129 The Allied Forces Siege Frustrated, Comparable to Nightmare Difficulty!(2/2)
Although he thought he had paid enough attention to Chang'an and the battle to attack Chang'an City, the huge losses and setbacks suffered by the coalition forces in the siege of the city still frightened the coalition commander Grant.
Destroying the city seemed to be a difficult task to accomplish.
"General, if you want to make progress in attacking the city, the key is to find a way to suppress the crossbowmen at the top of the city. I suggest that you urgently build more mobile arrow towers and trebuchets." Staff Mike suggested.
"Can."
Grant nodded, "In addition to these, we have to think of some evil tricks, send orders to the frontline troops, try to pollute the water source of Chang'an City, and start tunnel excavation work at the same time."
"yes!"
Mike also agreed that as long as the city could be broken, any method was acceptable.
There is no such thing as moral or immoral.
"besides…"
Grant paused and then said: "The alliance lords have also seen the siege situation in the first week. It's not that the alliance forces are not working hard, but that the enemy is too strong. Tell the alliance lords for me that if you want Chang'an City to be defeated,
Just don’t hide it away, don’t be stingy with whatever treasures you have, bring them all to the base camp.”
"Especially archers, the coalition needs a lot of archers."
"There are also iron armors and shields, and lack of protection. Do allied soldiers really risk their lives?"
"good…"
Mike was used to Grant's lion's big mouth.
If Mike was familiar with Chinese history, he would have realized that Grant, the commander of the coalition forces at this time, was very similar to Nian Gengyao, the great general during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.
Relying on the great support of the imperial court, he gradually became a vassal by exploring the northwest.
And because he controlled the most important military force of the imperial court, the core task of "defending foreign enemies" gradually changed in the specific implementation process.
Because the stronger the "foreign enemy" is, the easier it is for them to seize personal interests.
Based on this, he constantly asked for various support from the court.
The problem is that Nian Gengyao in history was still controlled by the rules and regulations of the imperial court. Yongzheng could engage in the "cunning rabbit dies and lackeys are cooked" method, so what did the alliance use to control Grant?
No wonder.
Grant will have a "disobedient heart".
………
March 25, cloudy.
Just when the coalition's attack on Chang'an was thwarted, the system issued a rare global announcement.
"On April 1, two months after Blue Star's access to "Star Boundary" expires, in order to give back to the lords, a global auction will be held to bid for various rare props. Global lords are asked to be prepared and sign up as soon as possible.
."
As soon as the news came out, players around the world were excited.
There is a saying that goes well, "Products produced by the system must be high-quality products."
The various rare props sold in the mall before were very popular among the lords, but the quantity was very limited, and props such as resource bags even had a time limit for use.
Now that the system actually directly launches the auction, the things must be better.
Another very important point is that in the first month of advent, the pockets of the world's mainstream lords are all dry. In Zunlong Kingdom, even the top players like Xiao Zhan can only raise hundreds or thousands of gold coins.
It's different now.
As the mainstream territory entered the village or even township stage, the gold coin rewards issued by the system gradually made the pockets of the lords gradually bulge without even realizing it.
In the township stage alone, the system has given away a total of 1,300 gold coins.
If you use it sparingly, it's still worth it.
Therefore, in the face of the upcoming global auction event, many thoughtful lords around the world have already begun to quietly raise money.
The reason is also very simple.
In global auctions, competition is fierce, and the competition is about whose pockets are bigger.
Otherwise, why win?
This has also boosted the total demand for gold coins in the global market.
For a while.
Suddenly there were more people selling things in the markets of various countries, and they all asked for gold coins.
Many big lords, especially the leading lords of various countries, such as Mu Xi of the Nanyang Alliance and Kasyapa of the Lieyang Kingdom, are secretly gearing up.
Just waiting to hold back a wave of big moves.
