Raymond could see clearly where the breaking point of the war was, and Ning Yuan, who had already mastered the initiative in the war, knew more about how the enemy could turn defeat into victory.

Since Ning Yuan already knew what the enemy would do next, he naturally would not give the enemy any chance.

In order to stabilize the defense line of the Zagros Mountains, Ning Yuan not only transferred an elite army from the local area, which is good at defending the city and mountain warfare, but also transferred a large number of skilled craftsmen from the craftsman department.

When the multinational coalition led by the beautiful country crossed the Tigris River to attack the fortress in the Zagros Mountains, the Condor Army not only placed a large number of trebuchets in the fortress, but even placed them on the ridges on both sides of the fortress. Dense trebuchets.

These trebuchets are all new trebuchets with a super long range, and the range will become longer after they are condescending.

In order to protect these trebuchets, Ning Yuan also stationed an orc army and an elf army on the ridges on both sides.

As long as the enemy dares to venture up the mountain, the combination of orcs and elves will immediately kill them without a place to die.

When Raymond led a siege army and pushed countless trebuchets towards the fortress, before their trebuchets were placed, the trebuchets located on the ridges on both sides of the fortress had already opened fire.

As countless stone bullets flew down from the ridge as if they didn't want money, the vanguard led by Raymond was instantly beaten and turned over.

However, even though the soldiers and catapults were suffering casualties and damage, Raymond did not issue an order to retreat. He directly dispatched a supervising team to force the siege army to continue sieging the city according to the original plan.

It's not that Raymond doesn't want to retreat to reduce losses, but he has clearly realized that this level is something they must face head-on.

Because the fortress leading to the Persian Plateau is there, if they want to enter the Persian Plateau, they must first break the fortress in front of them.

And if they want to break through the fortress in front of them, then they must attack the fortress against the trebuchets placed on the ridge by the Condor Army.

Today they can retreat temporarily, but what about tomorrow?

Don't they have to face the mad bombardment of those trebuchets on the ridge tomorrow?

Could it be that the Condor Army will take the initiative to move those trebuchets away?

As long as they want to attack the Persian plateau, they cannot avoid the slinging attack of the Eagle Army.

However, a storm was a storm, and Raymond did not allow the trebuchets on the ridge to attack recklessly.

After calling a few player generals and giving some orders, two mixed coalition forces consisting of orc players and elf players rushed to the ridges on both sides of the fortress.

Raymond knew that there would definitely be defenders of the Condor Empire on the ridge, but at this time he had no choice. He had to destroy the catapult positions on the ridges on both sides of the fortress as soon as possible, otherwise the catapults on their side would be completely useless. Can't install.

Anyone who has experience climbing wild mountains must know how tiring it is to climb hills where there is no road.

Climbing a boring **** all the time is the most consuming of physical strength. Going up alone will be exhausting, let alone wearing weapons and equipment.

Although the physical fitness of soldiers is much stronger than that of ordinary people, blindly climbing hills is also a huge consumption for them, especially in places without roads and overgrown with weeds and rocks.

Climbing from the bottom to the top is already very laborious. If there are enemies who keep firing arrows or throwing stones, it is basically impossible to climb up against the arrows and rolling stones. No more.

Raymond also knew that it was very difficult to storm the hillside, so he directly sent tens of thousands of players to attack.

However, what he didn't know was that there were also tens of thousands of Condor soldiers on the ridge.

There were tens of thousands of defenders on the hillside that could have been easily defended by one or two thousand people. If they could stand up to the attack, the defenders on the ridge would definitely be useless.

Obviously, it is impossible for a condor Empire army, known for its elites, to be useless, so Raymond's plan quickly fell through.

With the constant screams of players' soldiers rolling down the hillside, the corpses of players from all over the world were soon piled up at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing that the corpses at the foot of the mountain were getting thicker and thicker, the troops attacking the mountain were getting fewer and fewer, and they had not made the slightest progress, Raymond finally chose to temporarily confess.

With the sound of the drum sound of Ming Jin's withdrawal of troops, the soldiers of the multinational coalition army suddenly retreated like a tide.

In this way, in the first defensive battle, the Condor Empire made a good start with zero casualties, while the multinational coalition not only lost a large number of troops, but also lost hundreds of trebuchets, which was a disadvantage.

......

"Who can tell me how to fight this tough battle?

You said that what you are doing is not good, and that you have to carry out an absolute air ban plan in the whole of Central Asia and the Middle East.

Alright now, shoot yourself in the foot.

If there is no forbidden area, we can just send a flying army to fly up and immediately destroy the enemy's catapult positions on the ridges on both sides of the fortress.

This damned forbidden area directly makes the defense line of the Condor Army like an impregnable wall. Even if we use human life to fill it up, we will not be able to fill the Zagros Mountains in front of us! "

After returning to camp, Raymond was directly angry at the meeting.

Today's siege battle was the most embarrassing battle in his life. They lost tens of thousands of people, and they couldn't even touch the bricks at the top of the city. This is simply a great shame!

Seeing that Raymond was so angry, the others in the tent did not dare to say anything, for fear of getting burned.

Seeing that everyone in the tent was speechless, Raymond took a deep breath and asked, "As far as I know, this forbidden space is not irreversible, do you know how to remove the forbidden space? "

"Your Excellency Raymond, only Your Excellency Ibn Heydar knows about the forbidden area. You should ask him directly!"

This time someone finally spoke, but it was nonsense with little nutrition.

Seeing that the player mentioned Ibn Haidar, Raymond couldn't help but pouted.

Originally, Ibn Heydar had been staying on the side of the coalition camp, but since he had refused to send troops to attack the Persian plateau before, Ibn Heydar left in a fit of anger.

I don't know where in Iraq Ibn Haidar is now, so after a long sigh, Raymond could only look at the other people in the camp again.

"Apart from Ibn Heydar, don't any of you know the secret of how to lift the forbidden area?"

"Your Excellency Raymond, although I don't know very much about this, as far as I know, if you want to lift the Nine Bans Realm, you must use the Unlocking God Stone.

This Unblocking Divine Stone was also produced on the Nine Prohibition Divine Peak. Now the entire Nine Prohibition Divine Peak has fallen into the hands of the Eagle Empire. I am afraid that even if we find a way to unblock it, we will not be able to unblock it, because we can’t get close to it now. Nine Forbidden Peaks. "

Seeing that Raymond didn't want to look for Ibn Haidar, Guli Muhartov of Turkmenistan had to take the initiative to tell some of the information he had.

Hearing what Guli Muhartov said, Raymond was suddenly speechless, and his feelings still couldn't reach the hurdle of Ibn Haidar!

Glancing at the people in the tent, Raymond asked in a deep voice, "Your Excellency Guli, does Your Excellency Ibn Haidar have the Unblocking God Stone in his hand now?"

"It's probably not, because this time His Excellency Ibn Haidar escaped all the way from Guchang County.

In order to escape the pursuit of the Condor Army, he traveled lightly on the way.

By the time he escaped from the Zagros Mountains, he didn't even have a bag on him, and I really couldn't see where he could hide some rocks. "

Recalling the miserable appearance of Ibn Heydar at that time, Guli Mukhartov shook his head.

After learning that Ibn Heydar was completely useless now, Raymond shook his head in disappointment.

If the forbidden air domain shrouded in the Zagros Mountains cannot be cracked, then the Zagros Mountains are an insurmountable natural moat for them.

In the era of cold weapons, he really couldn't think of any way to break through such a scorpion-like line of defense in a short period of time.

In the ancient cold weapon war period, the enemy and the enemy surrounded a solid fortress and could continue to fight for several years, or even decades.

Some countries and even emperors have changed several times, but still have not been able to break through the strong fortresses located on the dangerous terrain.

Now the army of the Condor Empire is constantly launching a coastal invasion war on the coastal areas of the Arabian Peninsula, and the troops of the Ayub Kingdom on the Sinai Peninsula have all withdrawn to the area west of the Suez Canal.

Although the Red Sea Fleet of the Condor Empire withdrew from the Mediterranean in order to avoid public outrage and siege, their routes between Cyprus and Syria were open again.

But the Condor Empire has also occupied most of the Sinai Peninsula, and is eyeing the kingdom of Jerusalem, which has been destroyed.

If the Eagle Empire really takes over the Kingdom of Jerusalem, then their logistics base in Syria will immediately face the threat of the Eagle Empire.

Once Syria was occupied by the Condor Empire, their million-strong army in the Tigris River Valley would really become a turtle in a urn.

Thinking of these aspects, Raymond couldn't help but have a headache.

If he had known that the situation in the Middle East would erode to such an extent, he would not have gotten involved.

Anyway, their beautiful country does not border the Condor Empire.

The Condor Empire has occupied the Middle East, and the players in Africa and Europe should be anxious. This time, he is purely blocking the sword for these guys.

"Do you know how many troops are left in Reynolds' Jerusalem?"

After thinking of the logistics base in Syria, Raymond suddenly asked.

"Lord Raymond, as far as I know Raynor's kingdom of Jerusalem claims to have 400,000 Blue Crusaders.

These so-called blue crusaders are all composed of aborigines, and their combat effectiveness is at the top level among the human races.

After two consecutive defeats, Lai Luo's Blue Crusaders are estimated to have only about a hundred thousand left.

It is very difficult, very difficult, to resist the attack of the Condor Empire with the help of 100,000 Blue Crusaders. "

Seeing that no one answered Raymond's question, Syria's Assad Hussein took the initiative to stand up.

"What about the player army?

Isn't Renault a French player?

What about fellow Crusaders who share his passions? "

Hearing that Renault was likely to have only a hundred thousand Blue Crusaders left, Raymond immediately frowned.

"Reynolds' Kingdom of Jerusalem has been at war with our neighboring countries for a long time, and with the little land of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, Reynolds simply cannot support too many troops.

So between the aboriginal army and the player army, Reynolds decisively chose the former.

After making the choice, although Reynolds did not refuse Crusaders to join and participate in the war, he only recruited elite players. Ordinary Crusaders who wanted to come to the Kingdom of Jerusalem to participate in the war had to bring their own food.

Fighting wars is not only costly, but also expensive.

In order to attract money, Reynolds not only opened Mount Sinai to European players for a fee, but also opened the Cross Road and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the holy city of Jerusalem to all European players, and then charged per person.

Renault's move directly angered countless European players, and even many French players disliked him very much.

When he besieged Aqaba County last time, Renault used the player army of the Kingdom of Jerusalem as cannon fodder again, which once again caused players to be dissatisfied with him, and many players gave up completely and returned to the Kingdom of Jerusalem after being resurrected.

So Renault is now in addition to those remaining Blue Crusaders, he is probably very difficult to get the support of European players. "

Sometimes it is your enemies who know you best, and Assad Hussein falls into this category. During his years of hostility with the Kingdom of Jerusalem, he has almost thoroughly studied Reno.

"The kingdom of Jerusalem cannot fall, nor can the kingdom of Jordan fall, otherwise we will have to face the attack of the Condor Empire in the west."

After muttering to himself for a while~lightnovelpub.net~ Raymond immediately looked at the people in the camp, and after scanning a circle, he said in a deep voice, "Everyone, the Zagros Mountains are here for a short time. No breakthrough is possible.

If the two catapult positions on the ridge remain unresolved, then we cannot pose any threat to the fortress in the valley.

Since the Zagros Mountains is destined to be a long and protracted battle, then we must not be impatient and must fight steadily.

If we want to play steadily, we must have a safe and stable rear.

Now that the waters of the Mediterranean Sea have returned to safety, all that remains is Syria, where we are hoarding supplies and assembling our troops.

We must guarantee absolute security in Syria.

So I decided to temporarily slow down the attack on the Zagros Mountains, immediately dispatch all cavalry to urgently return to the Kingdom of Jordan and the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and at the same time send all the troops that have arrived in Syria to these two countries to help these two countries resist The attack of the Condor Empire.
