In fact, Long Aotian's idea is very simple, now that they have invaded the Wa Kingdom, they must stabilize the hearts of the people of the cities they occupy, only by gaining the hearts of the people can they stand firm on this side and continue their battles, and only when they have won the people can they leave with peace of mind.
Otherwise, when the time comes, these popular uprisings behind the front-line battles, their situation will be very difficult. So for them, they have to come up with some way to stabilize the people here, stabilize their emotions, and buy their people's hearts.
The night passed quickly, and at dawn the sun slowly rose over the horizon, glowing with a charming red glow. At this moment, the peace and tranquility in the city have lost the noise of last night, and the shouts and screams of last night. Losing that mess, everything was taken care of by the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion after the battle last night.
Morning. The inhabitants of the city rose up and looked like they were still living the same ordinary life as before, as if yesterday's battle had not been born at all. It seems that everything yesterday was a dream, and they are still living their peaceful lives.
In fact, they already know in their hearts that today's town has changed hands, and they also know that today they already belong to the rule of the Shenlong Empire.
Looking at the teams of soldiers of the Divine Dragon Empire patrolling the streets from time to time, they also had an indescribable feeling in their hearts, and there was still a strange taste in their hearts. They can be said to love and hate at the moment. Love is that the soldiers of the Dragon Empire drove away the army of their own country that has been oppressing them all along, and helped them get rid of the oppression; love is that the soldiers of the Dragon Empire are indeed very strict in military discipline, after the battle, none of the soldiers did anything to harm their civilians in the city, and no soldier was here to rob their things and oppress their people.
But they also have a trace of hatred, hating the ** of the country at home and the scattering of the army, and hating their incompetence.
"Eh, there's a notice over there, let's pass"
At this time, a resident walking on the street suddenly saw a few soldiers of the Shenlong Empire over there, posting some notices over there, and shouted to a few people around him.
"The people of the Shenlong Empire have opened our granary for grain, let's hurry up"
Moments later, the crowd resounded with loud shouts. For the soldiers of the Shenlong Empire to make such a move after they first came to this town, it caused a great reaction from everyone.
a;;;;; >
At noon, a clearing in front of the granary in the city was already full of civilians, and everyone was looking forward to the start of the food distribution.
With Long Aotian's order: "Open the warehouse and release the grain!"
I saw a few soldiers of the Shenlong Empire slowly open the door of the dusty granary, and with the creaking sound, the door was slowly opened.
"Everybody a;;;;; 8226; Everybody's lined up!!"
Seeing this, Bird, who was in charge of the operation, shouted loudly to the people below.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the residents patting the neat team Lin receiving a small amount of food and a little gold coin, Long Aotian and several officers of the Xuanwu Legion also had a smile on their faces, their actions have already won everyone, and the next step is the second step They are going to start taking action against those rich people in the city, it is time for these so-called nobles and high-level people of the Japanese Kingdom in the city to rectify it well, otherwise these people will definitely become a big disaster for them in the future.
After distributing all the food, Long Aotian returned to the barracks and quickly convened a meeting, at which he asked a thousand infantry to stay and put things in order and let them deal with the nobles in the city. Naturally, he also left a member of his guard, Xiao Mao, to stay and assist these soldiers, and after they were in order, they would join the soldiers who had arrived in the city in front of them, and they would continue to move on to the next town in the afternoon, and they must hurry up and not let the enemy have any chance to move his troops to counterattack or defend.
The sun was shining in the sky, and the earth was shining with bursts of heat, and the streets were a lot cleaner at the moment, and all the residents chose to hide in their rooms as long as they had nothing important to do, and they didn't come out to walk, and the hot weather made them really a little unbearable.
At such moments, there was a sudden commotion in the city, and the sound of orders, soldiers' footsteps, chatter, whining, and horses' hooves filled the town once again.
Hearing this voice, the residents of the city thought that the city was going to fight again, and secretly poked their heads out of the window to look at the situation outside, and the scene outside made them breathe a sigh of relief, these voices were all from the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion, and at this moment they were gathering their teams and preparing to go to the next town.
After about a quarter of an hour, looking at the assembled team, Long Aotian raised his thunder and shouted to all the soldiers underground: "Out!"
At this moment, Long Aotian's image looked so great, under the reflection of the sun, I saw that his white armor reflected a little silver light at this moment, and the posture of holding a spear inadvertently exuded a kind of majestic domineering.
Tens of thousands of troops slowly marched out of the city again.
Under Long Aotian's order, as soon as they left the city gate, they immediately sped up their speed and ran towards the next town, because according to their calculations, this section of the journey would take about two hours.
After a rapid march all the way, they finally arrived in front of the enemy's city in less than two hours, looking at the town that was still about a kilometer away from them, Long Aotian ordered to stop their march, take a rest in the same place first, and carry out a halt to rectify by the way. It was only about another hour before dark, and they could use that time to rest and then attack as soon as night fell.
The situation on Long Aotian's side has now entered a state of intense preparation, but the situation in the two cities behind them is not as good as that side.
Since the town was conquered by them, the interests of those nobles in the city were naturally hurt the most, especially those hereditary nobles and the profiteers who relied on the protection of the rulers in the past, and they had no advantage after losing their privileges at this moment, and they were naturally unwilling to accept this situation.
After Long Aotian led the army away, their activities suddenly became active, and those soldiers who stayed behind to rectify also encountered a lot of trouble. Looking at the situation in front of him, Xiao Mao gave only one opinion, that is, to cut through the mess quickly, to hit their arrogance fiercely, to kill when it is time to kill, and to kill the chicken to see!
So in this case, there was also some bloodshed in the city. In the end, under the iron-blooded methods of the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion and the residents of the city, they began to slowly stabilize politics and law and order.
a;;;;;; >
Time passed quietly, and soon an hour passed, and the night gradually descended to the world, looking at the little lights gradually lit up in the distant town, Long Aotian drew a sneer at the corner of his mouth, the time was up, it was time for them to start acting. Looking at the guards who had obviously strengthened their guards today, Long Aotian had nothing to worry about.
According to Long Aotian's conclusion, the number of enemy soldiers in the city should be about 35,000 at this moment, because this town is in the middle of the Wa Kingdom, so they will not gather heavy troops on this side when the country's troops are empty, according to the approximate estimate, the defenders in the city will not exceed 10,000, plus the enemy soldiers who fled to this side after being defeated yesterday, their strength will not exceed 40,000.
In this case, Long Aotian and the others first occupied the advantage in numbers. Coupled with the gap in morale, Long Aotian has an obvious advantage.
"Action!"
With Long Aotian's order, tens of thousands of soldiers rushed over there.
First, the archers took the lead in attacking, and as they attacked, the arrows whizzed towards the walls.
A moment later there was a burst of screams. At this time, although the enemy army that had been prepared for a long time was a little damaged, it was also swift to launch a counterattack, and the enemy soldiers on the city wall also quickly organized a counterattack, and the archers and catapults all deployed their might to attack the city.
The heavy armoured heavy cavalry in front was the first to be attacked. Fortunately, their defense was strong enough, and their armor was strong enough to not cause much damage, and in this case, Long Aotian and they quickly approached the enemy's city.
Set up the ladder, under the beginning of the heavy armor, they began to rush towards the city wall, the infantry and cavalry under the city also quickly began to hit the enemy's city gate, with the roar of the city gate, with each impact with every shaking of the city gate, each shaking showed that they were one step closer to breaking the door.
The battle on the walls soon began.
Under the leadership of the heavily armored soldier Hao Long Aotian, they quickly climbed the enemy's city wall and fought against the enemy.
With the climb to the city wall, Long Aotian held his thunder with one hand and dragged it on the ground, and instantly killed into the enemy's camp, perhaps because he had not participated in the previous battle and had not heard of Long Aotian's reputation, so the enemy soldiers here did not have the slightest concern, and when they saw Long Aotian's attack, they also instantly rushed up to surround the officers of the Divine Dragon Empire, and they believed that if they killed the highest officer of the Divine Dragon Empire, they would be greeted by a rich reward.
