Chapter 78: Five Cities in One Day

Ignorance has the advantage of being foolish, that is, it is very easy to be influenced by things like gods and ghosts. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The shelling from ten miles away, especially the thunderous explosion, made the defenders of Wanling naturally combine all this with the things of ghosts and gods. Seeing the republican **** singing "Song of Freedom", not to mention the incendiary significance of the lyrics, it has resonated with many soldiers, only to say that the previous two thunderbolts have scared their guts.

Du Wei was not from a great family, he could actually realize these two thunders, but he was afraid that they were caused by some kind of weapon of the Republic. But he just couldn't figure out what kind of weapon could produce such a terrible effect. The unknown is the most terrifying, he doesn't dare to gamble, especially when morale has been lost, so he can only choose to surrender.

Danyang Taishou has slipped away, it is said that seeing the city gate being blasted open, the enemy army slowly drove in, afraid that after entering the city, his family will not be able to save their lives, so he directly packed up, and even those large belongings did not bring them, and fled from the north gate with his wife and children.

"Where can he go?" Li Wen summoned the governor Zhang Kang and asked, There are still several county towns in the north of Wanling.

"It's good to lose the city and lose the land, not afraid of being beheaded, does he dare to come and be the enemy of the general again?" The relationship between Du Wei and Taishou doesn't seem to be very good, and he immediately complained when he heard this.

"This general!" An adjutant next to him stepped forward, "I am too good at keeping great achievements, but I am greedy for life and afraid of death." The arrival of your army this time has frightened his courage, and he has already hung up the seal and left, and he should not be embarrassed by your army again! ”

In this way, if you really want to resist, how can you hang the seal and leave? This is to give up the official position, even if you go north to ask for help, without the official seal, you will not be able to mobilize local officials. The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was indeed a bit erosive, and it was not enough to be able to brush your face casually.

"So good! Next, we will manage the captured soldiers, and there will be 500 people who will stay for the time being, and we ask the commander to cooperate more! Li Wen nodded, and then said to the lieutenant.

"Since Zhang has surrendered, he will definitely not repeat, the general can rest assured!" Zhang Kang is not a child of the Zhang family of Wu County, but a child of the Zhang family of Pengcheng County, Xuzhou.

However, he has been a lieutenant in Wanling for five or six years, and he knows the prosperity and wealth of the Special Zone, that is, the Republic. The key is that this country has just been established, and it will definitely need a lot of talent. He is forty years old this year, but if he can make a career in the republic, his achievements in the future should not be small. In the final analysis, he is another opportunist, planning to play the trick of sending charcoal in the snow.

It is true that the republic lacks talents, and there is a great shortage of officials, but it has trained many college students, and in the last year, they even arranged for college students to work as temporary workers at all levels of government according to their academic performance, so as to learn about the world.

The last college students to graduate are basically able to serve as officials at the level of the county magistrate. However, at the county level, they basically rely mainly on grades and elections, and these newcomers have to train from ordinary staff and even the grassroots.

As for officials of the old era like Zhang Kang, they will be retained if they can be retained, and eliminated if they can't. There will be special people to teach him classes, and only after passing the examination can he take up his post, and if he does not meet the requirements, he can only be discharged early, but the republic's retirement pension is very generous.

The next day, Guan Yu received an order and came to replace Li Wen with his own army. To the west and north of Danyang County is the Yangtze River, and then to the past are Lujiang County, Jiujiang County and Guangling County. Although the republic has not yet planned to cross the river to fight northward, it is also necessary to prevent the enemy from crossing the river to attack, and it is also appropriate to leave a general to guard Danyang County.

"Fang Tian, what's going on with you? Two cities in two days, without attrition......" After checking the situation of Wanling, Guan Yu asked curiously. As for the artillery, to be honest, he didn't really know about it.

"That's what it takes! You can't envy it! Li Wen and Guan Yu are also familiar with each other, and they don't tell the truth, they just brag about it.

"What? I don't know how much of your ability you have? There must be a secret, not to mention pulling down! "In the end, it's familiar, and Guan Yu is not polite to him. Li Wen is indeed not full of muscles, he understands this, but he didn't see the Wanling South Gate, and he really thought he could hide it from anyone?

"Alright, now that you're here, we'll be on our way in an hour. There are 3,000 defenders on Wanling's side, and now they are all prisoners, you know what to do with them? Levine is not going to go on on this topic.

"It's easy to do! This time, Guan brought a lot of political commissars, and they have the final say on how to select and assess! In addition, Zhu Zhi was promoted to Danyang Taishou, Chen Qi was promoted to Danyang County Cheng, and a group of college students will come to take office, how to deal with Danyang County is their business, I will be responsible for fighting and defending the city! Guan Yu waved his hand and said.

"If Zhu Zhi is the Taishou of Danyang County, then what will happen to those towns within the original Special Economic Zone?" Li Wen was a little puzzled.

"That is, I heard that I plan to divide Taoyuan County, Lingyang County, She County and Qianxian County into one county as the national capital; Other places have successively returned to the control of the local government, and on the side of Danyang County, Jing County, Guyan County and Yuqian County have been placed under the jurisdiction of Danyang County; The four counties of Wucheng, Yuhang, Qiantang and Fuchun will also return to Wu County later," Guan Yu also learned a little about the changes.

Li Wen nodded when he heard this, and he understood it.

How the politics changed had nothing to do with their soldiers, so after arranging the handover, they led the troops to attack Chungu County, Wuhu and Liyang counties in three ways.

Xu Shu's tiger and leopard cavalry attacked Chungu, and the artillery was also brought over, anyway, there was a horse pulling speed to keep up; Dian Wei and Chen Tao attacked Wuhu County; Li Wen's troops attacked Liyang County; Yang Lang's department was divided into three, and he took special forces to follow Li Wen to Liyang County.

"One day?" Before Li Wen set out for the expedition, he looked at the commanders of the other two armies and asked. The main purpose of this division of troops is to defeat the entire territory of Danyang County as quickly as possible.

"One day!" Dian Wei, Xu Shu and Chen Tao nodded affirmatively and replied.

"See you in Danyang County?" Li Wen asked again.

"See you in Danyang County!" Dian Wei and Chen Tao replied.

"See you in Danyang County, we will fight in Shicheng County by the way!" Xu Shu said confidently.

"No jokes in the army?" Li Wen was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled.

"There is no joke in the army! Xu dared to make a military order! Xu Shu replied affirmatively.

The generals of the three armies looked at each other and smiled, and then went their separate ways, leaving Guan Yu with a wry smile. These guys are advancing so fast, and it turns out that they are not going to be busy to the death? Really, and I don't understand it......

Judging from the available information, not only Li Wen's way, but also Huang Zhong and Huang Gai's two roads are also advancing by leaps and bounds. More than a day is not a hurry, but also a hero. It's a pity that he didn't have his share in this expedition, which made him inevitably a little uncomfortable.

In the evening of the next day, the three gathered under the city of Danyang County. Albeit with exhaustion, but more pride and excitement. Conquering a city in one day, I didn't dare to think about it before, not to mention anything else, I was afraid that I would be tired to death after a day's march.

"Why did you come so slowly?" Li Wen was the first to rush to the city of Danyang, and after waiting for half an hour, Dian Wei and Chen Tao rushed over, so they laughed and said.

"Chen Heng, the county lieutenant of Wuhu County, is a little capable, organized 300 people to defend the city, and threw stones and logs at us without his life. After that, he led the defenders to fight with us to the end, but it was just like that, and I was directly beheaded by the old man, and I hate this kind of guy who has no self-knowledge! Dian Wei immediately complained when he heard this.

"How many were killed?" Li Wen immediately asked.

"Death to the fart! None of the injuries are counted, unless you count the one or two that twisted your foot or scratched the skin! They didn't want to die, but they didn't protect themselves at all, and we shot hundreds of people like this. After that, we burst in, and even planned to form a formation to fight with us...... To say that this Chen Heng is a bit bloody, he can be regarded as loyal, but his ability is too poor! Dian Wei immediately said all the complaints in his stomach.

In fact, the generals of the Han Dynasty are already very good to be able to do this. However, the republican **** ate well, received modern training methods, and even specialized in literacy, teaching them tactics and strategies. Over time, ordinary generals like Dahan are really a bit unworthy in their eyes.

According to the policy here in the Republic, when defending the city, you must inflict maximum damage on the enemy, but you must also learn to protect yourself. When the enemy invades the city, it is necessary to look for guerrilla and street battles with the help of the terrain, to avoid head-on combat, and so on, all of which have been taught in the officers' night school, and have even been practiced many times.

But in the Han Dynasty, and even in many feudal eras, where did the soldiers who defended the city learn the means of self-protection? To put it mildly, many of them are not the most qualified soldiers! Not to mention the street fighting, there is no way to cooperate with each other, and it is more advantageous to form a formation to fight than to be broken by each one.

"You, you really don't know ...... blessings in the midst of blessings" Li Wen naturally realized this, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Of course I do...... I just think it's so strange, it's only been a few years, how can the troops that used to look good look like garbage now? Dian Wei couldn't help complaining, of course, the latter sentence was obviously learned from Li Yu.

Li Yu has no intuition as a leader at all, and from time to time he speaks some Internet language in later generations. But I didn't know that these words spread out with the people around him, and they also became his 'classic quotations', and I can't say that future generations will write them into "Li Yu's Quotations", and it will be really embarrassing and embarrassing at that time!

"You're already there, huh?" Xu Shu was late at this time, and after arranging the affairs in the army, he came over and sat in front of the two.

"Why are you so slow? Won't you really knock Shicheng County down by the way, right? Dian Wei couldn't help but joke.

"Don't really say it, just after the fight, I have already sent someone back to tell General Guan!" Xu Shu said proudly.

"How many shots were fired?" Li Wen felt that with the help of artillery, it would indeed not be a problem to conquer the city.

"Two cannons! A city gate collapsed directly with one shot! Xu Shu replied with a smile.

The gate was destroyed, the army commander drove straight in, those who didn't want to die surrendered, and all the resistance was killed, basically this routine. The others knew it, but they wouldn't say anything. But two cities in a day, it's amazing!

"Blasting open the gate of Danyang County! Everyone's sleeping in the city tonight! Li Wen smiled, pointed to the city gate and said.

"Whoa!" The artillery commander was actually also listening, and when he heard this, he immediately went to make arrangements. (To be continued.) )
