Chapter 226: Turning Point

Arelin's silence made Zhang Xiu see it in his eyes, and his heart was already happy, little dog, finally you have today, and the low population should end up like this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"All of them, hurry up and dig trenches, we will fight to the death with the army of Willow Wind! We can't afford to lose again and again! Zhang Xiu shouted loudly.

These words were not a taste to the ears of the leaders led by Arelyn, they were a melancholy emotion.

Defeat after defeat refers to the Arelin army, Zhang Xiu has not participated in the war so far, therefore....

Hearing Zhang Xiu's order, everyone started to dig the ground with the butts of their guns, because they didn't bring sapper shovels or anything like that when they came, some of them returned to Zhang Xiu's camp to bring a large number of shovels, and these people took advantage of this gap to dig the ground vigorously.

The road itself was muddy, and the soil became soft when it rained, but the stickiness also increased, and the butt of the gun was so hard that it was impossible to look directly and was covered in mud.

Seeing that these people were in full swing, Arelyn couldn't stand by and continue to make a bitter face.

"All obey my orders, assist Governor Zhang Xiu in his work, and hurry up the construction of trenches!" Arelyn shouted.

The soldiers who ran out with Arelyn were already highly nervous, and with the long-distance running, they were now under double pressure on their physical strength and heart, and they were a little numb when they heard Arrellin's words.

Seeing that the soldiers were not active, Arelin yelled, "You guys really want to die, don't you? The army of Willow Wind is coming soon! Hurry up and dig trenches! “

The soldiers came to their senses when they heard Arelin's shouts, and hurriedly dug the earth under the feet of the men with the butts of their rifles, and the heavy rain showed no sign of abating.

According to this method, the entire area should be flooded by flash floods in less than three days, because of the heavy rainfall, how many sparse grassland meadows on the mountain, it is easy to have landslides, mudslides and other natural accidents due to loose soil, plus this Shanbei Plain is less than ten miles away from the Mediterranean Sea, it is impossible for that guy to hide, unless he goes up the mountain now.

This idea could not have come true, because Zhang Xiu was organizing resistance, the trenches were digging, and Liu Feng's army was close at hand.

.................

After the Willow Wind battalion cleaned up the battlefield, it was ready to continue the attack after the recoilless guns, tanks, and rocket launcher troops caught up, and many of Erelin's tents were seized here, and the army was tidying up their clothes in the tents at this moment, as if there was no war.

Liu Feng mainly wanted the rain-soaked soldiers to stop and drink hot tea and eat a compressed biscuit to replenish their physical strength, because marching and fighting on this muddy road itself was very physically demanding, so that after all the artillery troops rushed over, the soldiers could usher in a short rest before victory and lay a good foundation for victory.

Liu Feng didn't know the enemy's intentions, and he didn't know that the enemy was digging trenches, otherwise he would have rushed over, and now it was raining on the battlefield, and it was still more difficult to spy on the enemy's military situation.

Zhao Yun walked into the tent, covered in water, shook the raindrops on his clothes and asked: "Your Excellency, the bazooka army, tanks, and recoilless artillery units are already in place, come and ask for instructions on whether to pull them out!" “

Liu Feng didn't speak, but looked at Tana and said, "Bring Zilong a glass of hot wine, I'll treat you!" “

Tana picked up the wine bottle from the table and pushed it to the seat in front of Zhao Yun and returned to Liu Feng's side.

Zhao Yun saluted and thanked Liu Feng, took the wine glass and drank it all, did not sit down, but stared at Liu Feng.

Zhao Yun didn't understand Liu Feng's intentions, and was waiting for Liu Feng's next words.

"Sit down, have a glass of wine, add some food, it's not too late to go! The artillery unit has just arrived, let them rest more in the tent, this rain will not stop for a while and a half, rest assured, the enemy will not be able to escape! Liu Feng smiled and ate his wine.

Zhao Yun was really speechless, at this moment, it was the time to drink and eat, and he had not yet completely won, and he really admired the prime minister's heart.

However, Liu Feng is the prime minister, as long as he says anything, Zhao Yun will naturally do it, without the slightest twist and rebellion.

Zhao Yun walked to the chair and sat down, pushing the cup with Liu Feng to change the lamp, unconsciously half an hour had passed, the wind and rain outside gradually became more and more raging, Liu Feng just didn't give the order to attack, Zhao Yun was also a little unable to sit still, and the army was going to be trapped here in this way.

There was already a lot of water under his feet, and Liu Feng picked up the saber on the table and stood up.

"Zhao Yun, now I don't have the confidence to capture the enemy army in the east overnight! I've heard that Zhang Xiu and the army with Arelin have converged! Liu Feng staggered and burped and said,

"Then why didn't the Prime Minister give the order to attack earlier? Isn't this a missed opportunity? Zhao Yun said with a sigh.

Liu Feng laughed and let Tana pull out the communication phone of the Aerilin camp, but Zhao Yun didn't understand what it meant.

"This thing is a communication telephone, half an hour ago, we had a phone call with the governor of Carthage, and they asked Zhang Xiu to temporarily stop building fortifications and enter the camp to hide from the raindrops1, do you think they didn't notice our movement for half an hour, will they believe it?" Liu Feng laughed.

Liu Feng did dial the number of the Carthage headquarters half an hour ago through the phone left by the communication office of the Arelin camp, and Liu Feng directly explained the proposal for peace and got the promise of the Carthage headquarters, and they also asked Zhang Xiu to withdraw his troops as soon as possible. Therefore, when Zhang Xiu received the news of the withdrawal of troops, although he was skeptical, he still listened to the advice of the headquarters to stop digging trenches.

It's not that Zhang Xiu is so honest, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the trenches dug are flooded with water, not to mention staying in the squatting pit, or going down to dig will get wet, this humid and hot climate is not swollen by the blisters.

Although Zhang Xiu's army stopped building fortifications, but still at the suggestion of Erillin, left a few observation posts, judging from each report of the observation post, the enemy really stayed in Erilin's camp and did not move, and even the tanks, recoilless guns, and rocket launcher troops arriving from the west all stopped advancing.

The observation posts were mostly hiding in their tents, and there was still time to stare at the west all the time, and gradually the sky became darker, and they were even more reluctant to go out in the rain to observe in such conditions.

This provides good offensive conditions for the Willow Wind army, Willow Wind wants to completely destroy all the forces and threats of the system people in the strategic places in West Africa, as long as these people are not eliminated one day, one day still exists, they will always threaten themselves, as for the Governor of Carthage's coping, when the enemy cruiser arrives, seeing all the West African expeditionary forces that have been destroyed, they will not rashly bombard Willow Wind, they also need to get permission from the Governor of Carthage.
