Chapter 210: The Final Battle of Zezhou (1)
The first division of the Yunjia army traveled for nearly half a month, especially in the last few days, in order to rescue the Shangguan clan day and night, the soldiers were tired, so Yun Yi ordered the first division to temporarily rest in Dingxiang County for a day, and set off again on October 16, and the soldiers pointed to Zezhou City.
At the same time, Yun Yi also sent a message to the second division in the core area of Zezhou, ordering the second division to set off and rush to Zezhou City, at present, the second division will stop after entering the core area of Zezhou and attacking the next city, waiting for the first division to also enter the Zezhou area and attack Zezhou City together, it is expected that Yunyi's order will be delivered to the second division after October 17, when the first division and the second division will be under the city of Zezhou about the same time.
Zezhou City has become the base camp of the Zezhou Guangming Army, and it is also the last line of defense of the Zezhou Guangming Army, the Holy Maiden of the Guangming Sect led the army to withdraw to Zezhou City, and the Guangming Army led by Liu Kun and Zhu Wen also converged to Zezhou City after leaving Dingxiang County.
Not only were these two armies going to converge in Zezhou City, but Zhu Wen also ordered the Guangming Army stationed in various cities in Zezhou to gather in Zezhou City.
This is also a matter of no way, the Warrior Guild thousands of registered warriors rushed to various parts of Zezhou, several warrior squads combined to take a county seat, the number of warriors doubled, as long as a detailed plan is made, even a county can be taken, now Haiqu County and Jieliang County have been completely controlled by the Yun clan, and there are two cities each in Helin County and Huichuan County that have been taken by the warriors, and there are already two temporary warrior alliances planning to take Helin County City and Huichuan County City, and the situation of the Guangming Army is critical.
Now the first and second divisions of the Yunjia Army are one west and one south, and the goal is very obvious, that is, Zezhou City, Liu Kun and Zhu Wen discussed, because of the limited strength in their hands, they finally made a decision to abandon the division of troops to support the cities in various places, and instead gathered most of the troops of the Zezhou Guangming Army to Zezhou City, so as to have a decisive battle with the Yunjia Army.
If the troops are divided to support the counties of Zezhou, there will only be one outcome in the end: the city of Zezhou was quickly taken by the Yun family's army, and then the Yunjia army pocketed the counties of Zezhou one by one, and the Yun family finally completely occupied Zezhou.
It is not feasible to divide the troops, so you can only gather troops for a decisive battle, and the decisive battle is won, and in the future, Zezhou will be the world of the Bright Sect, and if it fails, everything in Zezhou will be owned by the Yunhua Yun clan.
In fact, whether it is Liu Kun, Zhu Wen or Yuan Xin, they are not willing to fight hard with the Yunjia army, let alone have a decisive battle, but now the Guangming Army in Zezhou has been greatly reduced in strength after several major wars, and some of the troops are still scattered all over Zezhou, and the Guangming Army in Zezhou's neighbors Laizhou and Hezhou are unable to divide their troops to support the Zezhou Guangming Army, and the initiative in the war is even more in the hands of Yunyi, and the Zezhou Guangming Army can only choose to gather forces to fight a decisive battle with the Yunjia Army, so as to have a chance to redeem the current decline of the Zezhou Guangming Army.
In several battles between the Zezhou Guangming Army and the Yun Family Army, Liu Kun, Zhu Wen, Yuan Xin and others could find a problem: the Guangming Army was killed and injured at a long distance by an unknown "hidden weapon" in the hands of the Yun Family Army.
This kind of "hidden weapon" is launched overwhelmingly, the power is powerful, the big "hidden weapon" even the innate grandmaster does not dare to resist, the small "hidden weapon" high-level martial artist will be killed if he is not careful, the martial artist is like this, how can ordinary soldiers resist, even the shield in the hands of the soldier can't stop it.
Yuan Xin is very concerned about the "hidden weapon" of the Yun family army, and it is because of this "hidden weapon" that the Yun family army continues to defeat the bright army, if the bright army obtains this "hidden weapon", then the advantage of the Yun family army will be gone.
So Yuan Xin sent Yan Ping, the only innate grandmaster eleventh elder around him, and more than a dozen high-level martial artists to infiltrate the second division of the Yun family army at night, killing and wounding dozens of Yun family soldiers, and obtaining six firearms, Yan Ping and his party paid the price of two deaths and finally brought these six firecrackers back to Zezhou City.
After obtaining the six firearms, Yuan Xin quickly dispatched skilled craftsmen to study the six firearms, but time passed day by day, because Yan Ping and others only brought back the firecrackers, not lead bullets and gunpowder, these skilled craftsmen could not study the reason, and could only roughly guess the principle of the firecrackers firing the "hidden weapon" according to the shape of the firearms.
Although the Guangming Army was temporarily unable to make and use firearms, Yuan Xin also analyzed an important matter: the Yun Family Army was not good at night fighting.
Last time, Yan Ping led a dozen or so high-level warriors to infiltrate the second division of the Yunjia Army, which brought a lot of confusion to the Yunjia Army, other armies are not good at night fighting, and the Yunjia Army is also not good at night fighting, this is good news, if the Bright Army makes good use of this, maybe it will be able to win the decisive battle.
The 13,000 Guangming Army led by Liu Kun and Zhu Wen was gathering towards Zezhou City, and the Guangming Army from the four counties of Helin County, Gap County, Huichuan County, and Huwei County was also gathering towards Zezhou City.
However, after the Bright Army stationed in various places leaves the city and rushes to Zezhou City, there will be a warrior squad to quickly occupy the city, and there may also be a temporary warrior alliance to ambush the Bright Army.
I don't know how many of the Bright Army arrived in Zezhou City safely in the end? How many bright troops will gather in Zezhou City?
Dingxiang County
Because of a big war, the original scale was only smaller than Zezhou City, Dingxiang County became dilapidated, and the total population of the city was less than 30,000 people, which can be said to be extremely miserable, almost every family hung white cloth, crying constantly, basically no family in Dingxiang County City could completely survive this war, how many people died because of this war.
Ordinary people are so miserable, and the Shangguan clan and the small families vassal to the Shangguan clan are even more miserable.
Before the war, there were nearly 3,000 clansmen in the Shangguan clan, and there were more than 7,000 clansmen in those small families combined, and the two together were 10,000.
After the war, there were less than 100 young and middle-aged men from the Shangguan clan and the small families attached to the Shangguan clan in Dingxiang County (each family also sent a small number of clansmen to hide in the outside world), and most of them were wounded.
The first division of the Yunjia Army came a little late, at that time the Guangming Army had already entered the city and attacked the Shangguan Mansion, in addition to the Shangguan Mansion, the other courtyards in the city of Dingxiang County were easily captured by the Guangming Army.
In this siege battle, there were too many casualties in the Guangming Army, and there was still a sense of difficulty in the still alive Guangming Army that was not vented, and most of the Guangming soldiers were born in the low-level people, and they would not attack those ordinary people in Dingxiang County, but the big families in Dingxiang County were going to be unlucky.
One by one, the courtyards were blasted open by the Guangming Army, and the bright soldiers with blood on their bodies rushed into the courtyards, killing people when they saw them, and robbing them when they saw them, as if they had become a group of bandits, if the Yunjia Army did not arrive, I am afraid that these Guangming troops would kill the red eyes, and finally attack the ordinary people in Dingxiang County.
However, in this way, those big families are also finished, except for the remaining hundreds of people in the Shangguan Mansion, the other big families in Dingxiang County have all been wiped out, whether it is women, children or the elderly, all died under the knife of the light soldiers, of course, there may be some survivors among them, there will be very few such survivors, and they will live in fear in the future.
