"Old Pang, this is the latest news sent by the dark guard." Li Shaozhou didn't have the heart to go to any New Year's Festival at this time, and hurriedly handed the information he received in his hand to Pang Lingming and said: "This big cannibal New Year's Festival will not stop, this is planning to come to a desperate plan." ”

"What's wrong? Now that the big cannibal has basically exhausted its means, is it possible that there is nothing to repeat? The competition between them and Great Qin in Egypt will be difficult to see in a short period of time. Pang Lingming took a leg of mutton and gnawed there, took the information in one hand, and then glanced at it, and suddenly said: "The big cannibal plans to dig up the wave-proof seawall outside the Phoenician city?" What is this for? This Egypt is their own territory, right? There is only one big city within a radius of hundreds of miles? ”

"I think they are used to blasting, so they plan to use any means at this time, and they don't care about the lives of tens of thousands of people in the city." Li Shaozhou said with a little contempt: "According to their tactical feints and arrangements, I am afraid that they will act immediately as soon as the New Year is over." As long as the city of Phoenicia is breached, the Eridogan army will inevitably be in chaos, and when the sea and land armies cannot be connected in tandem, they will be able to rely on their superior cavalry to attack the Great Qin army, and then completely defeat the opponent. "Although this move of the Great Cannibal made Li Shaozhou disdainful, it was very good from the perspective of tactical effect alone, cutting off the connection point between the Great Qin army and navy, and making the navy lose the channel to support the army, so that the entire Great Qin army on land would become a source of water and be calmly annihilated by himself. After all, under the situation that they were blocked in the south and the east was the Great Cannibal Formation, the strategic maneuver space of the Great Qin army suddenly became extremely limited, and on the one hand, Tunisia and other places were the territory of the Great Cannibals, and on the other hand, the Great Qin Army was not the opponent of the Great Cannibal Cavalry in terms of marching speed, and once it was dragged back, it would inevitably retreat, and it would eventually be completely annihilated.

"Forget it, even if we know about this kind of thing in advance, I'm afraid it won't be able to make any difference. Fortunately, Phoenicia is not my Tang Dynasty city at present, and although the people in the city are innocent, we are powerless. Pang Lingming's face was lit up and down by the candlelight, and after a long while, he sighed and said: "Forget it, it's inconvenient for us to do anything about this matter, tell the dark guard, if possible, find a way to inform Elidoan at the moment before the big cannibal starts, or find a way to organize a part of the people to escape, and do your best to secure your destiny." This battle was really a wretch. ”

When Pang Lingming and Li Shaozhou were in the sky over the north shore of the Great Bitter Lake in the direction of the Phoenician city in the northland, they rushed to the Persian governor's palace, and then changed from the railway to the fast ship Starry Night towards Wolong Port, seven days later, that is, on the sixth day of the first month of the thirteenth year of the Apocalypse, Qu Chengxing received Wan Yi's order in Wolong Port.

"Don't delay, take a boat immediately and go north day and night, and directly send the order to Li Shaozhou and Pang Lingming, so that the two of them can act cheaply." Qu Chengxing calculated the time and immediately asked people to take a boat to convey the order, and at the same time ordered the marines in the Wolong Port base to leave for Suez City immediately, and at the same time ordered someone to notify the rear Marine Corps command and ask them to draw troops from other directions to come to Wolong Port and Egypt for reinforcements.

After the order was delivered, Qu Chengxing began to study the situation in the entire area on the map, pondering the reason why the Western Expeditionary Army Headquarters suddenly ordered the Tiance Army on the front line to secretly intervene in the battle between Great Qin and Great Eclipse in Egypt. But before he could figure it out, the news from Byzantium was transmitted to him by the Secret Guards. The reason why Qin Kong's order was sent to Qu Chengxing after Wan Yi was mainly because Qin Kong thought that Qu Chengxing would sit in the Persian Governor's Mansion, but after the information arrived, he found that the other party was in Wolong Port, so this time it was delayed. However, after Qu Chengxing received this information, he understood everything, the situation in Taixi had unknowingly reached the point of great change, and the command of the Western Expeditionary Army asked the Tiance Army to intervene in advance, but I was afraid that it would be Xiang to take Egypt directly when necessary.

"The three provinces, notify the chief of staff, immediately summon the base of the Western Fleet, let the three Shandong-class warships and the five Izumo-class warships on the side of Xihai County all set off, let them come to the Persian Governor's Mansion as soon as possible, and be on standby at any time, and at the same time report to the Admiralty, asking the Marine Corps to send at least two battalions of troops to Wolong Port and other places to standby." Qu Chengxing was silent for a long time and then immediately issued an order, asking Wu Sanxing to prepare quickly. His serious expression made Wu Sanxing's heart move, he was afraid that Taixi's side would usher in a big change, otherwise his own general would not transfer almost all the capital ships of the Western Fleet to the Persian Governor's Palace, and directly asked the Admiralty to mobilize two battalions of marines to deal with it. You must know that the total establishment of the Marine Corps is only 100,000 people, and two battalions were mobilized at once, plus what was already in place before, that is to say, half of the Marine Corps has been transferred to the Western Ocean, what is this not a big change? Therefore, Wu Sansheng immediately sent people to interrogate as quickly as possible.

When Qu Chengxing was preparing for a rainy day in Wolong Port to mobilize naval forces and warships to prepare for a sudden situation, on the thirteenth day of the first month of the thirteenth year of the Apocalypse, under the non-stop day and night, the naval clipper rushed into the Great Bitter Lake and arrived on the north shore to deliver the news to Pang Lingming.

"Oh my God? What's going on over there? Why did you suddenly change your attitude so much? Pang Lingming handed the order in his hand to Li Shaozhou and said: "The command of the Western Expeditionary Army rarely interferes in the specific battles of front-line troops like us, but I am afraid that this time there will be some big changes." ”

"Participating in the war in disguise, and not being allowed to contact the big cannibal in advance?" While thinking about what the headquarters was thinking with Pang Lingming, Li Shaozhou was thinking about how to carry out this order, so when he heard this, he frowned and said, "Old Pang, do you have any tricks?" ”

"Oh, you say this, it's simple, order the whole army to take off their uniforms and put on civilian clothes to participate in the battle. Anyway, aren't there enough clothes to be delivered over there? It won't be a problem to borrow it from Minister Lin temporarily. Pang Lingming smiled indifferently after being interrupted by Li Shaozhou: "Didn't the chief of staff above point it out, anyway, you can't let the people of Daqin see it." As for the rest, it's up to them, guessing it anyway and seeing it are two different things. ”

"Is that okay?" Li Shaozhou was stunned, but then he shook his head and said with a smile: "Anyway, I don't care, although the Marine Corps is also a land army, but I don't want to use my brain in front of you field corps, you say, what should we do?" Time is running out, I'm afraid that the big cannibal will be ready in a few days. ”

"Order the troops to change their outfits immediately, we will go out tonight, and it is expected that we will arrive under the Phoenician city around the night after tomorrow, and then disguise ourselves as big cannibals to attack the city walls, and blow them up directly." Pang Lingming said: "When the time comes, we will bypass this section of the lake and marsh area and start in the southeast corner." If the big cannibals react and get involved, we'll get out of the way and let them go through the passage we've opened, and if they don't move, we'll fight ourselves. If the strength of the two battalions was dispatched at full strength, it would be enough to force the Great Qin army in the city out of the city under the field battle. In this way, when the morning dawns, we will hang up the battle flag of the Great Cannibal and declare to the public that we are the new reinforcements of the Heavenly Sect. ”

"Come on, I'll arrange for the troops to change their outfits, and you will be responsible for the planning." Li Shaozhou always felt strange about Pang Lingming's last words, but he didn't dig deeper, and directly got up and went to contact Lin Yuantu to borrow all the clothes that were originally for the engineering team to be borrowed. More than 20,000 people quickly changed their outfits, and then urgently received marching dry rations and water from the logistics operations department to make emergency combat preparations.

In the afternoon of the same day, it was getting late, and Li Shaozhou and Pang Lingming urgently dispatched 20,000 people and began to head north. Because of the pursuit of speed, the Tiance army threw all the heavy weapons carried by the army to the logistics troops, and then left, and the two of them rushed forward with the troops, traveling more than 100 miles under the starry night, lasting two days and two nights without sleep, and finally arrived at the hidden area chosen by the team that set off in advance on the evening of the fifteenth day of the first month of the thirteenth year of the Apocalypse. Pang Lingming and Li Shaozhou inspected the terrain overnight and contacted the secret guards in the city to understand the situation in the city, and conducted a thorough survey of the defense map and the number of troops of Daqin in the city, and sent a blasting team to approach the excavation and blasting in the second half of the night.

Although Eridoan arranged enough garrisons for Phoenicia and the defenders in the city were also very well defended, the demolition team of the Tiance Army was much more advanced than the big cannibals who were still using the original explosive packs. The Great Qin army garrisoned in the city was caught off guard and was rushed to the city by the Tiance army, and the two sides immediately started a street battle in the city in the chaos, and the mortars and grenades carried by the army were used by the Tiance army perfectly, and the formal rifle was not comparable to the breech gun, and the strong and continuous firepower suppressed the large number of Great Qin troops in the city to retreat step by step. Moreover, in the second half of the night, many people were very sleepy, and many of the great cannibals were completely defeated by the Tiance army that rushed in before they woke up in the dream. In order to speed up the march and accurately find the location of the Great Qin army, more than a dozen secret guards collectively led the way for the first dozen forwards. After having a guide, the 20,000 Tiance army was overwhelming in the city, and it was simply not a hasty army with backward equipment and a weak army that could compete. After countless explosions, not only the Great Qin generals on the front line could not contain the defeat of the defenders, but even Elidoan's personal bullets and pressure were useless, in the darkness, countless Tiance troops rushed up from all directions, and the guns in his hands, the bullets and grenades and mortar shells in his hands exploded even more numbly, this is not the firepower that the Great Food Army can have, unless the Tang Dynasty hands over the weapons of his army in service to the other party. Moreover, the other party is so proficient in all kinds of tactics, even if it is changed to the most elite team of the Great Food, it may not be able to perform so freely in the dark night. Although the banner of these people is the Great Food Empire, Eridoan roared incessantly, scolding the Tang army for not keeping its word and secretly attacking him.

But at this point, name-calling won't solve anything at all. Although the law enforcement team in Elidoan's hands formed a human wall and used snowy long knives to block the retreat of the defeated army, the defeat was like a mountain, and Elidoan simply could not vacate more and more defeated defeated soldiers and rush back. The opponent's obvious goal is to constantly drive their defeated troops to attack the defense line they have built up with great difficulty, so as to turn the defeat into a snowball until they can no longer control it. Therefore, after venting his anger, Eridoan immediately ordered a retreat, and at the same time asked the naval fleet to turn its guns and bombard the city, using artillery to cover his retreat and block the opponent's continuous pursuit.

"Haha, this Elidoan is a famous admiral, and it's not the same as a naval battle for land warfare." Pang Lingming saw that all kinds of warships in the harbor began to fire at his side, and immediately restrained the army and did not continue to advance. Instead, he smiled: "I didn't think about occupying the dock, otherwise this paper would really not be able to contain the fire." ”

"Haha, Lao Pang, look, I have changed the big flag on the city tower, see if it is a big cannibal battle flag?" Li Shaozhou came from afar and laughed.

"Hurry up and order the soldiers to move all the heavy supplies in the city for me, and then arrange for people to pretend to be on guard on the city tower for me to be on guard." Pang Lingming commanded the guards around him to go up to the city tower to pretend to be guarded, and asked at the same time: "Is there any movement of the big cannibal in the east?" ”

"There's no news yet——, well, it's already here." Li Shaozhou was just about to finish speaking, when he saw his own guards running from afar under the banner in the distance, and he immediately knew that he was afraid of the news, so he pulled Pang Lingming to step forward quickly, only to see a secret guard behind Li Shaozhou's personal guard, and bowed down after seeing Li Shaozhou and the two: "Qiqi two generals, there are cavalry dispatched from the Dashi military camp, the number is about 20,000, and they are coming towards the Phoenician city, and they will arrive at the city in about half an hour. ”

"It's okay, Shao Zhou, you immediately retreat with your brothers in the Marine Corps, and then stay in our hidden location and wait. I will lead the men to fight for a while to keep Elidoan from moving, and then retreat, and cede the city of Phoenicia to the Great Cannibals. Pang Lingming said with a smile: "After the big cannibal takes over the city defense, I will definitely have a wonderful expression." ”

The two immediately split up, Li Shaozhou immediately set off to retreat with countless captured supplies, while Pang Lingming's headquarters attacked the dock several times to drive the last of Elidoan's counterattack into the sea and then retreated to the city. At this time, the big cannibals outside the city were about to arrive under the city, and Pang Lingming saw that the time had come and immediately ordered the troops to retreat, and he didn't even hide his traces, and even the big flag that had just been hung up was torn off and taken away.

And almost as soon as Pang Lingming drove away, the Great Food Cavalry rushed into the city, but at this time, there was no army at all in the Phoenician city, and the people in the city were also frightened overnight and knew what was happening, although there were traces of fierce battles in the city, but when Li Shaozhou and Pang Lingming retreated, they even took away the bullet casings scattered on the ground, and they couldn't find anything in the hurry.

However, the Great Cannibal was still overjoyed to get the city of Phoenicia out of thin air, but before the 20,000 cavalry could gain a foothold, Eridogan on the dock also saw the change in the city and sent troops ashore again to fight for the city of Phoenicia, and the two sides immediately fought again near the dock. It's just that all this has little to do with the initiators Pang Lingming and Li Shaozhou. The two had already begun to retreat reflexively at this time. However, after their uproar, the competition between Da Shi and Da Qin in Egypt suddenly accelerated, and almost in the next few days, the two sides directly divided the victory and defeat.
