After the Tulai provincial garrison was flooded, Nakajima Snow Bank readjusted the battle plan, he left the 18th Army under the command of the corps, and ordered the 18th Army to make a detour to Dongcheng, Ontario, and attack from the eastern front, marching in one day, attacking the city in one day, and garrisoning in one day, and after three days, the 18th Army must break through the gate of Antario.

The remaining four group armies will advance along the boundaries of Tulai Province and attack several other provinces from the flank, as long as the Yuankun Frontier is defeated, the corps will cut off the connection between the northern theater and the interior of the Xia Dynasty, at that time, the supply channel of strategic materials and weapons of the imperial court will be controlled by the corps, and the supply channel will be cut off, which will deal a fatal blow to the war guards in the northern theater.

After receiving the order, Yoshio Yamamoto, commander-in-chief of the 18th Group Army of the island country, immediately led 10 regiments to march towards the province of Anzhou, because the river upstream was dug up by the war guards, and many bridges along the way were destroyed, so the enemy's 18th Army had to march around the distance and walked more than 100 miles before arriving at the defense area of the province.

At this time, there were two choices in front of Yoshio Yamamoto, one was to attack from the eastern part of the state, and the other was to attack from the northern part of the state, from the geographical point of view, the eastern city was the closest to them now, and the northern city was still a thousand miles away from them, so after discussing with several army commanders, Yamamoto Yoshio decided to attack and break the city from the eastern city.

"Report! The enemy is coming. "The heralds on the city walls beat their drums to warn.

Hearing the sound of drums, Gao Tianci, He Jingxiong, the commander of the second legion, Xie Zuwei, Fu Qingyun, and Ling Xia, who was temporarily left by Gao Tianci, all boarded the city wall, and when several of them saw the other party's battle flag hunting from the city wall, they gathered a group army, although they had a trace of preparation from Ling Xia's previous analysis, but when they really saw the size of the enemy army, they were still frightened.

Although Ling Xia guessed that the other party would divide the troops, but he didn't expect the other party to be divided into an integrated group army, looking at the well-equipped island soldiers under the city, he was also a little dignified, at this moment, the enemy army was assembling, and the one responsible for the first attack was actually a siege corps, and six hundred catapults had been pushed to the forefront.

"What to do? Did the other party dispatch a catapult? The siege crossbow is also being equipped, can't we stop this kind of attack? Instead of being smashed by a catapult, why don't you take the initiative to charge and fuck him? He Jingxiong said anxiously.

"There are too many disadvantages in fighting us head-on, this city can't be defended, there is only one way now, that is, to give up the city gate and transfer the main battlefield to the city ......" But as soon as Ling Xia said this, He Jingxiong refused without thinking about it.

I saw He Jingxiong interrupt Ling Xia's words, and roared angrily: "No, we must not give up the city gate, we are all soldiers, soldiers are used to fight, a manly man, I would rather die than give in, even if I die in battle under the city gate, I will never let go of the way, isn't it death, who is afraid." ”

Seeing He Jingxiong's ignorant and stubborn appearance, Ling Xia was angry in his heart, but he didn't have time to stimulate He Jingxiong at this juncture, and after a moment of silence, he looked at He Jingxiong's mighty and unyielding expression, and had to patiently explain:

"Legion Commander, calm down, don't be impulsive, the other party has ten legions, and we only have two legions here, what should we do? The disparity in strength is so big, rushing over is to send death, I know that everyone is not afraid of death, but it is valuable to die, and they all die in vain, who will guard the gate of Ontario in this state? ”

After some persuasion, Ling Xia pointed to the empty city behind the city wall and said: "Defending the city is not necessarily standing on the city gate, we can change the concept, as long as we ensure that the state and Antario are not lost in our hands, instead of playing offensive and defensive battles with the enemy from the city gate, it is better to bring the enemy into the inner city."

There is a tactic called alley warfare, and there is a tactic called sparrow warfare, which is specially applicable to the battle in the city, we take advantage of the complex layout of the city's streets and the dense courtyard of the people's houses to introduce the enemy into the city, anyway, now the city is empty, the people have all moved away, and we are not afraid of the enemy tearing down the wall and opening the house.

Now that we are all gathered at the gate of this city, the enemy must have a greater advantage than us, but what if we enter the inner city? As long as they come in, they will have to disperse, and we will retreat into the inner city, and they will have to search for us, right? But how do they find a huge city? You can only scatter along the streets and houses.

Later, we will abandon the city walls, deploy our forces into the city, rely on the buildings in the city to deal with the enemy, let the enemy waste a wave of stone bullets and crossbow arrows, and when they find out that we are gone, they will definitely enter the city to search.

The streets and houses are the best separation zone, they will divide the enemy into a group, those alleys and courtyards will cut the enemy into a team, and our soldiers hide in the courtyards of those streets and alleys, as long as they see a lone widow, they will go up and kill them, and when they are done, they will run, run to another deserted courtyard to hide, and wait for the next wave of widows to come.

This tactic has been tested in war, the effect is very obvious, this is called soft knife to pull meat, we are in the dark, the enemy is in the light, the situation is very favorable to us, as long as we do not rush forward, the enemy can not help us, unless they demolish this city, otherwise, they can only be next to each other, until they can not stand it, they will temporarily withdraw their troops. ”

"Can the battle still be fought like this?" After listening to Ling Xia's idea, Gao Tianci and those people were stunned, from the moment they entered the barracks as soldiers, they were instilled with the concept that they fought bravely to kill the enemy, bravely and unyieldingly, fearless of death, and sacrificed their lives to the country.

But Ling Xia's idea today subverted the concept they thought, they thought that defending the city was to defend the city gate and prevent the enemy from attacking, but they didn't expect Ling Xia to come up with a way that no one could think of, and after thinking about it, everyone felt that this plan was feasible, and looked at Ling Xia with admiration, they didn't know what to say?

Seeing that after he finished explaining, everyone looked at him and didn't speak, Ling Xia was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" Do you all think this plan will not work? If that's the case, then let's get another one. ”

At this time, Gao Tianci directly made a decision: "There is no need to change it, this plan is enough, pass the order and retreat according to Ling Xia's plan." ”

With an order, the archers and soldiers who were originally standing on the city wall and responsible for defending the city gate all quietly withdrew towards the inner city, and at this time, the unsuspecting Japanese robbers were wondering where to camp after breaking through the city gate. Unbeknownst to them, what awaited them was never-ending doom.
