Chapter 719
It was an artillery attack, an overwhelming bombardment, and no one could resist it, and no one dared to defend it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The guards around the eldest prince of Lingguo, when they saw this kind of scene, subconsciously wanted to escort them, but such a wild bombardment, how could they be able to resist such flesh and blood? Even if they were fifth-level professionals, in the face of cannonballs, there was no other way but to dodge.
For a while, the entire enemy coalition army was in a mess, and no one knew where to hide, because it seemed that no matter where they ran, a large cannonball, as if it had eyes, would explode beside them......
The eldest prince of Lingguo, seeing this bloody scene with his own eyes, was stunned for a moment and was at a loss! Around, I saw that the soldiers of the coalition army were like blind flies, running in all directions, even if they were bombed so that they could not find the north, they didn't care about the three, seven and twenty-one, they ran away first. But no matter how hard they tried to escape, it seems that today, Lady Luck is not willing to favor them, and there are constantly those who are killed by shells, and there are those who trample each other to death because countless soldiers are panicking, and there are those who are blown up and can't die all of a sudden, and they are constantly wailing in place......
The tragedy of the scene is unbearable. Under such an impact, the prince of Lingguo no longer had the heart to command the soldiers to attack, and when he finally came to his senses, he also followed the soldiers to quickly dodge the shells, and it was important to escape.
The situation of the Moon Kingdom is not much better, and it is also in a state of losing the command core, because the little prince of the Moon Kingdom is obviously not as lucky as the eldest prince of the Ling Kingdom, he was killed early in the explosion, and no one can even tell which of the corpses on the ground is their original noble little prince.
Of course, the cannonballs continued to explode in their ears like rain, and no one bothered to think about collecting the body of their little prince. Now that their backbones are dead, the remaining soldiers of the Moon Kingdom are even more concerned about fleeing for their lives.
Even the Ling Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom have been reduced to this point, and the armies of the rest of the small countries are even more unbearable. If the Ling Kingdom is headed by the eldest prince and the Moon Kingdom is headed by the little prince, then the armies of the other small countries are headed by the Ling Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom from beginning to end! The Ling Kingdom was blown up, and the Moon Kingdom could not find anyone, and the rest of the army only saw what happened to the Ling Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom, and no one could care who to follow, and they all fled one after another.
This coalition of enemy countries was completely dispersed and routed. This battle has just begun, and it is already facing an end.
If the enemy coalition felt fear and confusion, then Zhao Bai, the commander of the Xinghua Army, as their hostile force, felt very speechless in the face of the chaotic enemy army.
What's the matter? That's the end of it, isn't it? Is this the one that can make them hold a solemn meeting to discuss the enemy army that they want to annihilate with their main force in one fell swoop? Just for the sake of such an enemy army, they have to seriously set up their formations, prepare food, grass and ammunition, and be fully armed and ready for battle?!
It was so unexpected!
The enemy army had already broken down, and seeing that there would never be any more turnaround, out of the idea of saving shells, Zhao Bai ordered the artillery battalion to stop the shelling.
Subsequently, the soldiers of the artillery battalion received the military order to temporarily reorganize in situ, so they liquidated each gun, and found that before the start of the war, the army scheduled each gun to carry out at least three attacks in order to control the enemy, but did not expect that after this series of attacks, each gun actually carried out two attacks at most, and a lot of ammunition was saved in vain.
When the soldiers of the artillery battalion were ordered to count the number of shells and ammunition, Zhao Bai did not relax his vigilance because of this, but continued to observe the situation of the enemy on the field. After the soldiers of the artillery battalion reported and counted, Zhao Bai continued to order: "Advance! Annihilate the enemy in front of you!"
Zhao Bai ordered a general attack, and the main force, slowly moving forward, began to sweep away the enemy's soldiers.
Ambushed in the surrounding troops, Yan Zhenhua and others also got the order for a general attack through the walkie-talkie and took the initiative to attack.
All of a sudden, the allied forces of the countries could no longer hold back in the face of attacks from all directions.
The morale of the armies of the Ling Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom has been lost, and they have all collapsed, and the armies of the rest of the small countries think that they are not strong enough to defend, and they want to run away with all their hearts.
Except for some of the enemy troops in Loulan City who did not get the news, the enemy troops outside the city can be said to be a thousand miles away and collapsed.
The various units of the Xinghua Army drove the enemy army around, and the battle ended after a while.
Except for some of the enemy soldiers who rode horses and ran fast on their feet, most of the enemy soldiers chose to surrender on the spot. Although many enemy soldiers don't know why they lost, at this time, saving their lives is the most important thing.
For these surrendered soldiers, Zhao Bai did not choose to kill, but chose to receive. As Anhua City continued to be built, a large number of slaves were needed to build it. The large number of slaves will not only reduce the capital investment of Anhua City, but also allow the management of Anhua City to think about welfare policies without thinking about the safety of slaves. Recently, one of the biggest projects in Anhua City is to build roads.
After the enemy soldiers did not resist, Zhao Bai ordered the soldiers to start capturing the prisoners.
After another two hours, the Xinghua Army completely cleared the enemy forces in Loulan City, and the whole battle ended.
In Loulan City, Wu Zhendong commanded the soldiers to clean up the mess and move the corpse in the middle of the road to the side of the road.
In the city, there are many corpses. The corpses in this were not only the corpses of enemy soldiers, but also the corpses of the residents of Lou Lan City. There are some people who are always reluctant to leave, even if Anhua City is willing to provide a minimum diet, they do not want to give up their property and belongings. Of course, there are also rich and noble families who hire slaves to help them guard the family business. However, when war came, how could a few slaves resist the brutal soldiers? There are even some soldiers who are forcing the slaves to speak their treasures, and if the slaves can't say it, they will only face the word death.
Therefore, Wu Zhendong brought troops and saw many tragic things while fighting in the streets of the city. Because of the direct face of the enemy, the battle inside the city is far more brutal than the battle outside the city.
After a while, Wu Zhendong and the others saw a large army led by Zhao Bai entering the city. After the battle, Zhao Bai and the others don't need to stay outside the city, they can enter Loulan City to rest. In addition to the Xinghua Army, there is also a Xinghua Empire Lou Lan Army, they were originally the city guards of Lou Lan City. King Lou Lan threw himself into Anhua City, and the Xinghua Empire re-gave them a three-level legion, which was controlled by officers assigned by Anhua City, referred to as Lou Lan Army, and the main task was to defend the city. Lou Lan Cheng is also about to enter the city, and the main task is to maintain law and order in Lou Lan City, as well as to clean up some hidden enemies.
After a day or two of rest, the main force of the Xinghua Army will return to the Hualou base and completely hand over the city to the Lou Lan Army.
"Sir, are we leaving Lou Lan City?" asked Wu Zhendong, a soldier under Wu Zhendong. In fact, there are few people who want to stay in Lou Blue City. Because it's not like a city, it's more like a battlefield.
"I didn't receive an order to evacuate Lou Blue City. After all, we have experience, and it is very likely that our superiors will arrange for us to continue to stay in Lou Lan City and continue to fight until we defeat the Roman legions. Wu Zhendong thought for a while and said.
"Sir......" the soldier still wanted to ask.
"I saw an acquaintance and went to ask him about it. Wu Zhendong saw Yan Zhenhua, who was escorting a group of prisoners, and walked up.
"Hello, Yan Zhenhua, the harvest is not bad!" Wu Zhendong complimented Yan Zhenhua.
Yan Zhenhua was a little high-spirited, as soon as his troops rushed forward, the enemy surrendered and captured many enemies, which was all his credit.
"Oh, it's Zhendong, you've worked hard too! I heard that you're in the city, fighting the enemy...... I was very bored, and as soon as I rushed up, they surrendered before they could shoot a few shots!" Yan Zhenhua laughed.
"I have something I want to ask you about. Wu Zhendong had something to ask, so he quickly stopped the topic, not wanting his pride to be too floating.
"What's the matter?" Yan Zhenhua asked with a smile.
"Do you know the next arrangement of our army? Actually, I want to know the next step, the military department's considerations. Wu Zhendong asked, "I don't know anything, I don't know the bottom of my heart." ”
Yan Zhenhua was also stunned when he heard this, shook his head and said, "I don't know either!" However, if you pay attention to the walkie-talkie, the corresponding order will definitely be conveyed soon." I heard that the Roman legions were on their way to the Western Regions......"
Octavian, the Grand Prince of the Roman Empire, who personally led the army on the expedition, decided not to expect that the Roman legions would be annihilated before they reached the Western Regions.
At this time, the 50,000 elite Roman legions had just left the city of Hasara.
General Lucius rode on a blood-red dragon horse and walked at the forefront of the army, and Giles followed respectfully on a jet-black horse.
"Gilles, I'm not satisfied with your performance. Lucius said.
Giles replied guiltily: "General, I have failed to live up to your expectations!"
"Well, as long as you know you're wrong, you can make a comeback. This time in the East, I will give you another chance to lead the army. Lucius said.
"General Xie!" replied Giles.
Lukius paused, and then said, "I have sent someone to investigate, and the people in the valley are not bandits from the Blade of Zihada. They are probably soldiers from the Western Regions, and their weapons are very similar to those of the last time they ambushed the army of the Grand Duke of Dila. So, it's not your fault that you lose to them. Your fault is simply that you don't know yourself and your enemy, and that you don't understand your enemy. ”
"Ah!" Gilles was shocked, "who are they?"
"It is said that it is a country called 'Xinghua', and they have a city in the Western Regions called 'Anwar'. Now this country has taken control of Loulan Country and has become a major power in the Western Regions. How a caravan, if you want to go to the East to trade, you have to pass through that Anhua City. Lucius said.
"Mastering the east-west trade routes, then their wealth must be very impressive. Giles replied.
Lucius nodded and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the amazing wealth, why did the Great Prince have to go east? How could the Presbyterian Council support the Great Prince? No one is stupid here, and the Roman Empire is not a country without any background." Before the establishment of Anhua City, the spies of the Roman Empire were already in Loulan City, and every decree of Loulan Kingdom and the price changes in the market would be analyzed by the merchants of the Roman Empire. It's just that the empire didn't pay much attention to it before, simply because the empire didn't care about ......"
Giles nodded earnestly as he listened to Lucius. Some pictures in my heart slowly emerged. Indeed, when they rounded up the Blade of Zihada before, they had already discovered that the Blade of Zihada had far more weapons than most Roman legions.
"General, the army of Xinghua Guoanhua City, their long-range weapons are very powerful, how should we deal with them?" Gilles couldn't help but ask.
"Haha, of course we are prepared. First of all, the Imperial Longbowmen, they are all one of the best second-level archers, with a hundred shots and hundreds of hits within a thousand steps, a range of more than three thousand steps, and two thousand people. There are also five thousand lancemen, as well as trebuchets, and the most precious of all, crystalline spearmen. There are more than two hundred people in this crystal energy spearman, all of whom are at least first-level alchemists, and there is no shortage of second- and third-level alchemists. With them, I think the Empire will have the upper hand when it attacks Anhua City. ”
Hearing this, Giles nodded reassuringly. He believed that with so many ranged troops, he would definitely ensure that the Roman Empire would not lose. Even if Anhua City cannot be captured, it is not too much of a problem for the Roman army to leave safely.
For a while, Giles had great expectations for this crusade.
"Was the Roman Empire strong?"
On a small hill, Wu Zhendong's subordinates asked.
"It should be very strong! Otherwise, how could those coalition forces be willing to follow their drive and come to attack the Western Regions. ”
Wu Zhendong replied while holding a telescope.
Wu Zhendong still got a new order, and it was a sentry mission. However, this time, Wu Zhendong didn't need to defend a certain guard tower, as long as he monitored the road into the Western Regions and monitored the movements of the people around him. As soon as the legions of the Roman Empire approached, Wu Zhendong had to report to the Hualou base. Wu Zhendong's subordinates were more than 100 people, divided into three teams, monitoring the necessary way to enter the Western Regions. Once the Roman army passed by, it would not be able to hide from it.
Wu Zhendong and they have a transmitter that can quickly send reports to the Hualou base.
Wu Zhendong was quite satisfied with this task, at least he didn't need to hide in the guard tower to resist the enemy's attack. That time, a lot of comrades-in-arms died, and Wu Zhendong has always been a little reluctant in his heart. I always felt that my command skills were too poor, and it was a mistake not to bring them all back.
This time, Wu Zhendong thought that as long as he completed the task well, he could take his subordinates and go back safely.
"Sir, there are three great eagles in the sky!" one of his subordinates shouted in surprise.
Wu Zhendong was curious, took the binoculars, followed the direction of his finger, and searched in the sky. Then he saw three eagles flying in the white clouds.
"Where did the eagle come from? Have you seen it?" asked Wu Zhendong.
"We haven't seen it. The subordinate replied.
"I haven't seen it either. Wu Zhendong replied. However, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart. (To be continued.) )
