Chapter VI: The Four Hundred and One Defenders
In the camp tent of the headquarters of the Hangcheng Army, Liu Han was deploying the battle plan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Brothers, there are five urban districts in Shaocheng, we are now occupying the northern urban district of Shaocheng, and Xiang Chu is in the southern urban district of Shaocheng, and Liu's battle plan is like this......"
Liu Han said and unfolded a map of Shaocheng on the table: "Our army starts from Beicheng District, Brother Long Xiandi leads a regiment of troops to occupy Xicheng District, Xie Xiandi leads a regiment of troops to occupy Dongcheng District, and Liu leads five regiments of troops to capture the central city with the largest number of defenders, and then the three of us brothers will join forces in Nancheng District in victory, and give Xiang Chu a three-sided attack! Everyone, what do you think of Liu's battle plan?"
Liu Han looked at everyone very proudly, and the mercenary captains under him applauded at the right time, while Long Xie and the others looked indifferent.
Liu Han saw that the two younger brothers did not speak, so he asked amiably: "Do the two virtuous brothers have any objections?"
"How did you know the distribution of the defenders of Shaocheng?" Also," Xie Qianqian was full of discomfort: "Can you not call the virtuous brother and the virtuous brother, Liu City Lord, you are almost fifty years old, self-respecting." ”
"The third brother is serious, hahahaha......" Liu Han smiled at Xie Qianqian's second question: "The distribution of the defenders in Shaocheng Liu naturally has an exact source of information, come here, bring it." ”
Liu Han gave an order, and a man wearing the uniform of the Shaocheng Army was brought into the camp by two mercenaries.
"Little Liu Gou has seen Liu Dacheng Lord, Liu Dacheng Lord Wanfu Jin'an!"
As soon as Liu Gou saw him, he gave a big gift of three bows and nine bows, Liu Han looked satisfied, and Long Kui looked disdainful.
"Alright, get up and speak. Liu Hanchong waved his hand at Liu Gou, who was lying on the ground: "You and my two virtuous brothers tell us about the distribution of the defenders of Shaocheng." ”
"The little one obeys. Liu Gou walked to Long Xie and the others in a low manner, and said flatteringly: "The small one has seen the two city lords, the three city lords, and the small one is the regimental staff officer of the Shaocheng Army before he surrenders to Cheng, according to the small one, there are a total of 3,000 defenders in this Shaocheng, and the four hundred in the Beicheng District have been annihilated by our army, and there are 400 defenders in the east and west districts, and the most defenders in the central city are the most, there are 1,000 people, and the last 800 defenders are the personal soldiers brought by Xiang Chu from his hometown Yucheng, and the most elite 200 of them are responsible for protecting his safety in the city lord's mansion. ”
After Liu Gou finished speaking, he bowed to Long Xie and the two of them and retreated to the side.
Liu Han was very satisfied with Liu Gouxian's performance, waved him to step back, and said that it would be reused in the future.
"The two virtuous brothers can rest assured now," thinking that he would soon be able to trample on his rival Xiang Chu, Liu Han was indescribably excited in his heart: "I know the deployment of the Shaocheng army well, and I know that I will not be defeated in a hundred battles. It's not too early, so how about we march in?"
Long Xie and the others nodded in agreement.
"Okay, Commander Zhao, you lead the troops to capture the Xicheng District with my second brother Long Kui; Commander Zhang, you lead the troops to capture Dongcheng District with my third brother Xie Qianqian; the remaining commander of the fifth regiment, you lead the troops to capture the central city with the city lord, and the whole army sets off!"
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the three-way army set out from the northern urban area of Shaocheng and killed the three urban districts in the east, west and central respectively.
Let's talk about Liu Han first, because the army has 5,000 people, so in the process of advancing to the central city, it has almost become a live target for the Shaocheng defenders hidden in the houses, and countless Hangcheng troops have been killed by cold guns and bullets.
This can be a big headache for Liu Han, although the Hangcheng army can annihilate the defenders blocking along the way with the advantage of troops, but the casualties of the troops are too heavy if they continue like this.
Just when Liu Han was at a loss, Liu Gou, who accompanied the army, offered a plan that the defenders in the central city were only 1,000 people, and the Hangcheng Army could divide the strength of the five regiments so that the defenders' attack targets would be scattered, and then the five regiments would seize the nearby commanding heights, organize cross-fire, support each other, and advance steadily.
Liu Han was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered the whole army to act according to the plan, and promoted Liu Gou to his personal staff and accompanied him.
Liu Han's army divided into five routes, quickly occupied the five commanding heights of the central city, and then launched a fierce offensive against the defenders of the city, breaking through the defenders' strongholds one by one, and quickly controlled the situation in the area.
Liu Han led the troops of a regiment to march forward all the way, eliminating several strongholds of the stubborn defenders, and he couldn't help but feel a little fluttering, he took out his pure gold pocket watch and looked at the time, it was only eleven o'clock, with this marching speed, it seemed that he could sit in Xiang Chu's city lord's mansion and drink tea at night.
Liu Han glanced at Liu Gouxian beside him, and saw that he was looking at him respectfully, his eyes were full of admiration, and he couldn't help but be satisfied.
This Liu Gou has a good brain, is very good at talking, and has a respectful attitude, which is much more comfortable to use than his two cheap brothers.
Thinking of the two of them, Liu Han was angry, if it weren't for Lao Tzu when he was employing people, Lao Tzu would have condescended to recognize you two as brothers? Look at the virtue of the two of you, the surname Long is like the stone in the thatched house, smelly and hard, and the surname Xie is a miser who fell into the eye of money, and he will let Lao Tzu add money.
Dongcheng District.
Xie Qianqian sneezed.
His unit had a smooth journey, encountering only sporadic resistance from the defenders. Dongcheng District had already occupied more than half of it by this time, and according to the map of Shaocheng, the hospital in front was the last place where the defenders could have a stronghold.
Regiment Commander Zhang had already led a battalion of troops to explore the front, and Xie Qianqian took the remaining two battalions behind.
Suddenly, gunfire erupted in front of them, and it seemed that the defenders were all entrenched in the hospital ahead. Xie Qianqian just wanted to lead the troops to support, but was surprised to find that Regiment Commander Zhang was wounded in the arm and fled back with the troops:
"The three city lords retreat quickly, the defenders have armored vehicles!"
I saw eight armored vehicles chasing the fleeing Hangcheng army at high speed, and the heavy machine guns mounted on the vehicles fired eight tongues of fire, sweeping the Hangcheng troops who were eager to flee for their lives to a large area, and the Shaocheng defenders in Dongcheng District followed closely behind the armored vehicles and charged forward, and the rifles in their hands frequently fired fatal bullets to bring down the fleeing enemy.
Xie Qianqian never expected that the defenders in the hospital would take the initiative to attack, seeing that the battalion led by Commander Zhang had already suffered more than half of the casualties, he hurriedly turned into a black flash and rushed into the chasing Shaocheng defenders to kill several people in a row.
Xie Qianqian saw that he was surrounded by enemy armored vehicles on all sides, and the secret path was not good, and just as he wanted to find a gap to drill out of the encirclement, the eight armored vehicles opened fire at the same time, and the eight tongues of fire rushed towards the turtle in the urn in the center with a piercing whistling sound.
Xie Qianqian held the golden sword in danger and spun in place, the speed looked like a black bladed spinning top, this black top actually bounced off all the bullets fired by the eight armored vehicles, and then moved quickly, crashing into the eight armored vehicles one after another, the sharp blade of the gyroscope cut the armor of the armored car like cutting tofu, and in a while, the eight armored vehicles turned into eight piles of broken copper and iron.
Commander Zhang was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly sorted out the troops and beckoned Xie Qianqian to go to the hospital to clear the remnants of the enemy, who knew that Xie Qianqian couldn't stop turning at all, and the black spinning top entered the hospital with a burst of bloody rain.
Screams suddenly erupted in the hospital, and when Commander Zhang heard this, he dared to enter, and waited obediently at the entrance of the hospital with his mercenaries.
Ten minutes later, Xie Qianqian, who was covered in blood, walked out of the hospital dizzily, holding on to a corner of the wall and throwing up.
"Three...... Three City Lords, are you alright......" Head Zhang asked cautiously.
"No, it's fine. Xie Qianqi, who had a gold star in his eyes, pretended to be calm and said, "You go first, and I will come later." ”
After that, he leaned on the corner of the wall and threw up again.
“…… That...... Take care of the three city lords......"
"It's okay, let's go...... Uh-wow......"
Xicheng District.
Long Kui is in trouble.
In a private house, an officer of the Shaocheng Army put a pistol to the head of a five or six-year-old girl, and said with a trembling smile to Long Kui in front of him:
"You monster! Kill all my soldiers by yourself! Kill them all! Put down your weapons, or I'll blow this little thing's head!"
The officer had apparently broken down and gone mad, and the trembling muzzle of his gun kept hitting the little girl's head, and the frightened little girl cried out loudly for her mother.
The little girl's parents stood opposite her, with Long Kui and a team of Hangcheng soldiers, crying helplessly and asking the child not to be afraid, but they could not do anything about the situation in front of them.
"Second City Lord, if you don't care about this child, just kill this officer, how can there be immortals in a war. Head Zhao said in Long Kui's ear.
Long Kui looked at the frantic officer with a solemn face, and said to the Hangcheng army beside him: "You all put down your weapons, don't let me say it a second time." ”
Commander Zhao couldn't believe his ears, but he didn't dare to disobey Long Kui's order, so he had to order his mercenaries to put all their weapons on the ground.
"Monster, put your weapons down!" the officer shouted at Long Kui.
Long Kui slowly lowered the machete held high, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and the machete flew out with a fierce backhand, and after a few quick turns in the air, it accurately slashed the officer's jaw.
When the little girl's parents saw that the officer was dead, they hurriedly rushed over and hugged their daughter in their arms, and naturally thanked Long Kui for their kindness.
Long Kui waved his hand to let them leave quickly, and asked the head of Zhao beside him, "Counting this, how many defenders have been annihilated in total." ”
Regiment Commander Zhao looked at the corpse of the officer on the ground, and touched his chin in fright: "Report to the second city lord, the mercenaries under my command have just counted the number of corpses, counting this, the four hundred defenders of Xicheng District have been annihilated by you." ”
"I'm not your second city lord. ”
"Where did the second city lord say, the big city lord has become a brother with you, you ......"
A gunshot rang out, and Captain Zhao's brain splashed Long Kui's face.
"Hidden, there are snipers. ”
Long Kui reacted quickly, rolled over to the officer's corpse and picked up his machete, then leaned his back against a nearby corner to dodge.
The four hundred defenders have obviously been slaughtered by me, but where did these four hundred and one defenders come from?
