Chapter 636: Luo Ming

Crash!

Fragments of porcelain were scattered all over the place, and loud sounds echoed through the hall. In the middle of the hall, stood a tall man with a majestic gaze and a grim face.

In front of this man, there were two men in tattered armor kneeling.

"You mean to say that you three veterans with decades of military career were defeated by two children?"

The man standing was named Luo Ming, a famous siege general in the Southern Chu Kingdom. The best thing to do is to storm the city.

After joining the army for more than 20 years, he conquered more than 150 cities, although the heavy troops of the Southern Chu State besieged Xun Renjie. However, a large number of troops were still sent to conquer other cities that had not yet been conquered.

In total, there were three large armies, expanding eastward, westward, and northward.

Among them, Luo Ming commanded the North Road Army, Luo Ming commanded an army of 70,000, and he had basically conquered the important towns in the north, and only two cities were still stubbornly resisting.

To say that the people in the south are indeed hard bones, Luo Ming has conquered most of the cities in the north, and is almost about to rush to the vicinity of Wanling Province, but the two cities that have been besieged for months are still desperately resisting their attacks, so that now the number of soldiers killed in the battle has exceeded 15,000.

"General, they're definitely not ordinary children. They were united, brave, and pre-planned. If it weren't for the luck of his humble duties, I am afraid that he would have suffered the same fate as Yang Long and them. ”

The talking veteran who knelt on the ground was one of the veterans in the Seven Star City, and the three of them had a good friendship, but in the end, he was the only one who survived, which was indeed a sentimental and frightening thing.

"I don't want to hear the reason, the city is lost in your hands. The remaining two men, guilty or not, have died in battle and atoned for their sins with death. What about you? Lose the city, lose the army. You shouldn't have come back. I don't want to kill my own people. ”

Luo Ming said coldly, vaguely uneasy in Luo Ming's heart, overnight, he lost three cities one after another. Although those three cities were not important strategic locations, what really made Luo Ming panic in his heart were those children.

Regardless of whether the veteran in front of him is exaggerating or not, those children are definitely not simple.

Luo Ming's heart was very important, because he was only sixteen years old when he joined the army, and in his first year in the army, he cut off the heads of a hundred enemies, so he was promoted.

In this world, the real strong people don't care about age, they only care about ability.

"Don't kill me, general, let me make meritorious deeds, I am willing to lead the army to take back the Seven Star City."

The veteran said in horror that he would rather try to retake the city than die.

"You're right, I should have made you guilty. But I don't have any more people under my command for you to take to your death. Now I need to strengthen the offensive against Tianshui City, there is just a shortage of people in the death squad, go ahead, I hope you have good luck. ”

Luo Ming regained his mentality, he knew that killing the two people in front of him would not be able to recover the lost city. It's better to let this guy go to the death squad.

"General, you can't do this to me, I have been in the army for many years, and I have worked hard without merit."

The veteran immediately cried bitterly and said, being a death squad is an errand to death, so he doesn't want to be cannon fodder.

"Take him down."

Luo Ming sneered, and then waved his hand to take him down.

After the two people were taken away by the guards who rushed up, a person rushed in from the outside in a hurry, and then walked to Luo Ming's side and whispered a few words.

"Really? Are you sure this information is true? ”

After listening to it, Luo Ming's expression can be described as wonderful.

"This is information from the Province of Ten Thousand Souls, there should be no mistakes."

The man nodded and said, this information comes from the Xun Wenlong forces in Wanling Province. The two sides are cooperatively allied, so there is no possibility of error in this information.

"Xun Langyu, Xuan Jiayin, Mu Youchen. It turned out to be these three people, good, good! Haha, I thought that all I could do in this war was to keep conquering inconsequential cities, but I didn't expect that now there is such a big meal delivered to the door, telling the besieging troops to suspend the siege, we have more important things to do. ”

Luo Ming suddenly said with joy, this time the Southern Chu Kingdom and the Tianchen Kingdom are at war. Although conquering a city is also a great feat, it is definitely not as good as killing or capturing some important people.

You must know that this invasion war may end in peace, and when the time comes, Tianchen Kingdom will definitely cede land and pay compensation.

But it is conceivable that most of the captured cities will eventually return to the hands of the Tianchen Kingdom.

Therefore, no matter how many cities they conquer now, they may not be in their hands in the future. Therefore, the merit of capturing a capable general is better than conquering a city.

The most important thing is that any one of the three opponents is captured or killed, which is enough to affect the situation of the battle.

"General, Tianshui City is about to be captured by us. Now turn the muzzle of the gun and attack the Seven Star City, isn't it ......?"

The man who sent the message was obviously Luo Ming's henchman, and when he heard that Luo Ming was preparing to turn to attack Seven Star City. He felt that something was wrong, so he asked with some hesitation.

"Tianshui City is indeed about to be captured, but it seems that the Xun family army inside can hold out for about ten days. But Seven Star City is different, the walls of Seven Star City are short, and we used 5,000 people to conquer it at the beginning. In just five days, or seven days at most, we will be able to take down the Seven Star City and the other two cities. When the time comes, if we use Xun Langyu and them to fight the defenders in Tianshui City, wouldn't it be able to reduce our losses? ”

In Luo Ming's heart, Xun Langyu and others were already in his pocket. He didn't underestimate Xun Langyu and the others, but they were young after all, and they still needed time to grow up.

"What the General said is extremely true, but we also need manpower to continue the siege of Tianshui City. I'm afraid we won't be able to draw too many people, but as far as we can get now, they have about 10,000 people in their hands. ”

Luo Ming's henchmen continued, there are not as many soldiers and horses under their command now as there were when they set off, after more than a dozen siege battles. Now they have 40,000 men in their hands who can fight.

In Tianshui City and another city that has not been conquered, there are about 20,000 Xun family troops, so in order to besiege the two cities, they must leave enough manpower.

"It's enough for me to bring 10,000 people, they used a surprise attack to conquer Seven Star City before, so I'll let them see what a real raid is."

A sneer flashed on Luo Ming's face, for him, who is good at attacking cities, Xun Langyu and the others are very immature in the end.
