Chapter 919 – Looking at the Joke

The guard soldiers charged around left and right in the crowd like a pack of wolves hunting amongst sheep. The human group exploded as they swarmed outward.

The Great Xia Army was facing a huge test.

Di Qing frowned; he did not wish to wait anymore, so he turned to Lu Bu and said, “I need general to remove the threat.” Di Qing looked at the guard soldiers; his eyes were filled with disgust.

Such an act of not caring about civilian life made them unworthy of being called military personnel.

“Watch me.”

Lu Bu could not stand it anymore. He moved to the front of the formation and armed his bow.

Be it in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Three Kingdoms records, there was the story of Lu Bu shooting a halberd. As a result, one could see that his archery was among the top during the Three Kingdoms Period.

Mixing into the crowd, the Somalia Guards cavalry were like fireflies in the night – they were just so eye-catching. Lu Bu causally shot out an arrow, and it hit one of them, launching his target off their horse.

Following which, ‘Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!’ Multiple arrows were shot.

When the other archers who were good at archery saw this scene, they all armed their bows to shoot at the enemy. Every arrow shot would hit one, and they did not make any accidental kills.

The dragon blood war cavalry had many hidden tigers and dragons. At the crucial moment, one would not act unless one had skill.

There were no more than 100 Somalia Guards cavalry, and they all fell in less than 10 minutes. To prevent the war horses from charging around, they shot down all the horses.

One had to say that Lu Bu had truly performed beautifully.

Helplessly, the people were already like birds after a gunshot. Ever since they exited the city gates, the continuous changes had made them like flies, and they were all randomly running about.

When Di Qing saw this scene, he felt a headache.

“What are they thinking?” Di Qing scolded out.

No matter how the civilians rushed, they could not cause much of a threat to the Great Xia army. If it concerned life and death, Di Qing did not mind killing them.

Even those players who sneak attacked them were too weak to even be mentioned.

Why did the Somalia King try so hard and not even care about his own people?

Was it just to create problems for the Great Xia Army?

Quickly, the Somalia King gave his answer.

The Somalia Alliance Army that had not done anything finally acted.

Close to noon, the south and north city gates of Mogadishu opened up. The 80 thousand guard troops, 50 thousand territory troops, and 90 thousand players all charged out toward the two wings of the Great Xia Army.

The two wings of the Great Xia Army only had 20 thousand people. Facing five to six times their number, they were immediately at a disadvantage. Although the dragon blood war cavalry were elites, the Somalia Formation infantry were far too weak, and they fell after less than an hour.

The Somalia Formation was formed not too long ago, so if they were in a bad state, the soldiers would lack killing intent and toughness. Their formation was crushed and scattered by the enemy instantly.

The dragon blood war cavalry was trapped by the enemy almost instantly.

At this point, the true motive of the Somalia King was revealed. He wanted to swarm the Great Xia Army in a sea of people. The civilians breaking out of the city could ensure that they had nowhere to run.

With that, the Somalia Alliance Army could act and take care of the two wings.

The two wings of the Great Xia Army were attacked by the Somalia Alliance Army, and they were facing a dangerous situation. The middle troops were also trapped. Looking at the situation, this country war had actually welcomed an unprecedented turn around.

This made the reporters outside the city really excited. As soon as they could, they reported the news back to their countries.

The moment the news went out, the world was in uproar.

Somalia used such a method to become the hot topic of the entire world.

The strength of Great Xia had made many people unhappy. Seeing them face a setback, there were many people who laughed.

“Great Xia focusing on military, they are destined to not have a good end!”

“The arrogant will fall!”

Similar mocking words filled the forum.

Lords, adventure gamemode players, enemies of Great Xia, and jealous people all jumped out to humiliate Great Xia. Even in the China region, there were many people like that.

To witness Great Xia make a fool of themselves was a rare sight.

In an instance, Great Xia fell from their lofty position.

Caesar even announced that as a result of Great Xia fully focusing on their military, their harm on the order of the Mediterranean had resulted in karma.

************

Shanhai City, Xia Palace.

In the Imperial Reading Room, Military Affairs Minister Du Ruhui, Guards Commander Huo Qubing, Administrative Mentor Court Chief, Jia Xu, and the like were discussing the Somalia war.

Although the outer world was filled with mockery and was really boisterous, it was very silent and calm in the reading room.

All those who were mocking them lacked foresight.

With the ability of the Great Xia Dynasty, even if Di Qing’s forces were destroyed, Somalia would still be unable to turn things around. Since Great Xia had so many troops, they could launch multiple crusades.

“I suggest we move the Guards 2nd legion.” The one who spoke was Du Ruhui.

Ouyang Shuo rubbed his forehead, “Friendship City is so far away from Mogadishu. Even with their speed, it will still take four days.”

Du Ruhui and the others went silent; this was the con of an expedition.

“Do not care about the noise outside. We still need to trust Di Qing and the frontline soldiers.” Ouyang Shuo was resolute, “Their attack had caught us off guard.”

Ouyang Shuo did not believe that such a scheme by Somalia could defeat a famous general like Di Qing, nor did he believe that the Somalia Alliance Army could destroy the dragon blood war cavalry.

“The king is wise!” Jia Xu could not hide his praise and smiled, “They look like they have the advantage, but this is only on the surface and cannot decide the victor of the war.”

Ouyang Shuo’s eyes lit up, and he smiled, “Wen He, do you have a plan?”

Du Ruhui and Huo Qubing both looked toward Jia Xu. He was a top strategist, and since he came over, he had come up with many brilliant plans.

Jia Xu said, “No matter how they have calculated, they forgot that something exists.”

“Are you talking about the Atlantic Squadron?” Du Ruhui was the first to react.

Jia Xu nodded, “The Atlantic Squadron has sword-shield soldiers and firearm forces. They can come ashore to help out the left and right wings. More importantly, they have the Flying Squad and the marines.”

“As the Somalia Alliance Army has swarmed out, the imperial city is empty and the defenses are really weak. Mogadishu is close to the water. It will be fine as long as the king gives the order for Alvaro to send the marines to dive into the city. Along with the help of the Flying Squad, they can kill their way into the palace and destroy the stone stele.”

“If that happens, everything will be settled.”

When Du Ruhui and the others heard that, their eyes lit up, and they relaxed.

“This plan is ingenious.” Du Ruhui was filled with praise, “Take down Mogadishu, and the players will be teleported away. More importantly, we can use the teleportation formation to send troops over.”

Jia Xu’s foresight was just that sharp.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, “Since the day the marines were built, they have been waiting for a battle to prove their skills.”

“Yes my king!”

“Commander Huo, ask the Boulder Army to get ready.” Ouyang Shuo instructed.

There was too much cavalry there, so the Boulder Army was more suitable for stabilizing the situation.

“Understood!”

Huo Qubing nodded.

Not long after this meeting ended, Alvaro received the orders.

Alvaro was worried about the battle. After getting the order, he relaxed and said loudly, “Men!”

“Raise the tent!”

“Yes!”

Since this was an emergency, Alvaro quickly passed down the battle plans.

In less than half an hour, the Atlantic Squadron had quietly docked. A firearm squadron and the sword-shield soldiers gathered at the shore.

The battle outside the city was really intense, so no one noticed what was happening.

During the last navy reorganization, Ouyang Shuo had noticed their weak close combat skills. As a result, the navy had reduced the number of archers and turned to sword-shield soldiers equipped with God arm crossbows.

As a Spanish military god, not only was he good at naval warfare, but he was also good at land battles too. He knew that they were not able to adapt so quickly to land, so he gave up on the idea of assisting the two wings. Instead, he focused them at one point to first assist the south.

One had to say that this one specific detail showed his military prowess.

The south side commander was Ma Teng, who was really experienced, so the side was stronger than the north.

With the squadron helping them, they would definitely be able to beat the enemy.

As long as one side was broken, the Somalia Alliance Army would have lost half the battle.

Furthermore, Alvaro had also thought deeper. If the marines failed, saving Ma Teng’s forces could make up for it and complete the mission.

On the contrary, if he went to the north, he might lose his own men without being able to save anyone. At that point, it would be an all-out defeat, and there would be no way to turn the situation around.

To be able to make such a clear analysis during such a nervous battle tested the ability of a general.

The marines had already set out before the Atlantic Squadron had docked. They followed the Mogadishu inner city river to get in and head toward the palace.

To crush the two wings of Great Xia, the Somalia King had gone all out. Apart from the two thousand guards guarding the palace, there was no one left.

At the same time, the Flying Squad set off and targeted the palace.
