There were 300,000 civilians and more than 100,000 troops in the city of York, all scattered on the roofs of buildings or on the walls.

Thousands of Huya and Wolf Fang flocked to the city wall, shooting all the way, and they died when they touched it. The 29th Regiment Cheng Zhi was Deng Ai who took the lead, and ordered the sergeants to be responsible for carrying all the wooden rafts into the city along the river, and the wooden rafts entered the city, and immediately more than ten sergeants stood on it and walked down the river to the city.

Huang Jie did not issue an order not to kill those who surrendered, because everywhere he passed, there were corpses, and the people were no exception.

Deng Ai was anxious to perform, led the army all the way forward, and was the first to kill the entire York City, and the first to climb the east gate wall was the first battalion of the 79th Regiment.

Where the gunpowder guns of the defenders in the city were loaded, it was a blessing to be able to fire one out of ten shots.

The slaughter was reddish from the east, and the solstice was until noon.

After the war, some people calculated that the York defenders of Palostan were almost completely wiped out, with more than 80,000 killed, and the people were even more tragic, with 130,000 innocent people being shot or drowned by the rebels.

The battle shook the city of London in the south, and the loss of York meant that half of the country was lost.

However, it is said that Huang shot York, and ordered laborers to start repairing the river, which is the case, and more than 2,000 laborers were washed away by the water due to an accident in the process of building the river, and their whereabouts are unknown.

Paloster had fallen across the entire northern territory, and Yang Xi was too late.

A day later, the blocked sewers were reopened, the water gradually dropped, and the army began to burn the corpses of the city that had not been washed away.

Deng Ai performed well, and sure enough, he was recommended to Yang Xi by Huang Zhu on the spot, and Yang Xi personally received him.

"Passing on the order of the Generalissimo's Palace, Deng Ai made meritorious contributions in this battle, and his achievements were outstanding, and he was awarded the rank of colonel during the war and promoted to the commander of the 79th Regiment!"

In this way, Deng Ai was overjoyed, but Cheng Zhi was shocked that he was replaced.

However, Yang Xi then looked at Cheng Shi.

"The former commander of the 79th Regiment was recommended for meritorious service, commanded decently, and had quite meritorious military achievements, was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general, transferred to the deputy commander of the Great Britain Wartime Command, and the former deputy regiment commander was promoted to the chief of staff of the Great Britain Wartime Command!"

So everyone was happy, this is a wartime adjustment, Yang Xi has privileges, and the merits of other people are naturally measured after the war, but Yang Xi does not need to arrange them one by one.

"Good! Command the whole army, bring enough food and grass, the whole army goes out, the goal, the city of London! ”

Since he has come here, there is no need to worry about grain and grass, Yang Xi feeds the war with war, and everywhere he passes, nobles have been robbed, and churches have been destroyed one after another, and there is plenty of grain and grass.

York City and London City are only more than 300 kilometers apart, if it is a special force, it can be reached in one day, but the army has food and grass, and Yang Xi arranged to arrive in three days.

The City of London was a commercial port established by merchants on the River Thames in the early days of the Roman occupation of Britain, around 47 AD.

After the Roman conquest of Britain, settlements and river ports were developed, and after the town burned down in 60 AD, the entire town was planned to be rebuilt. The newly built town was surrounded by walls, flourished economically, and by the first century it became the largest settlement in the Roman province of Britain.

Paloster rose in the city of London, and its roots were deeply rooted in the city, developing a river port town with a population of only 60,000 or 70,000 into a commercial and industrial center with a population of 7 or 800,000 today.

The Romans first built a bridge across the Thames in 50 AD, and Paloster expanded it into a reinforced concrete railroad bridge.

It was the largest city in the whole of Great Britain, but on this day the people were in fear, and many of the city's merchants and pawns moved their families and fled south across the Thames Bridge.

The merchants who had fled back from the north had brought them the exact message that the people of the Nachen River were from thousands of miles away, vicious and vicious, devils from hell, and that they had killed all the soldiers and civilians without sparing the slightest hand.

So the city of London was in turmoil, and more than 200,000 people fled in two days.

On the third day, when everyone was sure of the truth about Yorktown, the runaways reached their peak and the situation appeared that the ten rooms were empty.

Even the Führer Paloster had the intention of running away.

There is no way, it is too late to transfer troops.

Originally, Paloster thought that the Chenhe army would be blocked in York, and he didn't want York City to fall in a few days, and London City only had 50,000 defenders, which was not as good as York City.

Paloster is well aware of the true rifle horror, the early war, which is invincible.

Even if the other party only has 10,000 people, he can't fight 50,000 people head-on.

Some ministers suggested that they immediately surrender to the Chenhe Army, and promised to transfer back the Central Asian army and break away from the Six-Power Alliance.

No, it's the Five Nations now.

Of course, those who advised surrender were in the minority, and most believed that the city could be defended.

In the end, Paloster himself decided to defend the city and wait for reinforcements.

This reinforcement was naturally armed by the local armies, and according to Paloster's speculation, fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses were assembled in just three or four days.

When the time comes, maybe you can defeat Yang Xi and have a beautiful turnaround.

And the news has already been sent to Germany and Zov-Rome, and these two countries will definitely not sit idly by at that time.

At the end of February, Yang Xi's army reached the Thames.

Yang Xi personally went to the Thames River and sighed that the world is wonderful.

The Thames River is more than 340 kilometers long, traversing more than a dozen cities along the river, and widens down the city of London, forming an estuary with a width of 30 kilometers, which flows into the sea. Upstream of the city of London, there are the cities of Eton, Oxford, Henry and Windsor.

Yang Xi looked at the river, compared it with the information in the system, and knew that he didn't need to spend a single soldier.

It turns out that the River Thames flows down from the city of London into the sea, with an 88-kilometer channel that can be passed by huge ships!

This waterway is a lifeline for the economy in peacetime, but a death channel in wartime.

Yang Xi ordered that the whole army be divided into four divisions and camp in four directions to guard the main roads of London.

But it did not attack, some people raised questions, Yang Xi said: "The city of London is only the center of the center, and there are five major cities on all sides: St. Desburg, Oxford, Cambridge, Henry, and Eton, each with thousands to more than 10,000 troops. If we take the city of London, we will need to divide our forces and break through it in various ways, and we are afraid of damage at that time. Yes, our army only needs to surround the point and send reinforcements! ”

"Encircle the point and send reinforcements!" Huang Jue understood, Yang Xi wanted to finish his work in one battle.

Sure enough, within two days, news came from the east that about 20,000 troops and horses from Oxford City were moving towards the city of London.

Yang Xi immediately ordered Lu Yang, Sun Shao, and Deng Ai to lead their own regiments, a total of 30,000 people, and ambush them halfway.

On the second day, the battle report came, and the three armies used Deng Ai's strategy to ambush the enemy army when they were halfway across the Somme, and almost wiped out 20,000 enemy troops.

Deng Ai proved that his previous plan to defeat York City was not luck, but a real military talent. [End of Chapter]
