As soon as Duke Dozan's reward military order was issued, all the officers and soldiers of the Dozan side were boiling. Killing a soldier will give you two Golden Vic, which is equivalent to the price of a horse, and it is a windfall for ordinary families to be able to get this money!

All the guards are gearing up to do a great job, and killing a few more rebel soldiers means that their ordinary family can become a small and rich family. How could such a temptation be resisted by these soldiers, who were paid only a few silver coins a month? Duke Dozan is betting all his net worth and life on the line, Cheng Lei commented.

In addition to this reward order, there is also a military order that also makes all the soldiers pay attention. That is, if a soldier is disabled in battle, Duke Zozan will support him for the rest of his life after winning the war. If he dies in battle, then his family will be given a monthly pension, which is also a way to stabilize people's hearts, and the Duke of Dozan's means are really endless.

Finally, there is the punishment law, and the soldiers who flee in the battle are shot. Soldiers who violated military orders, shot. Soldiers who did not obey the command, shot. If there is a heavy reward, there will be a heavy punishment, and sure enough, as Cheng Lei thought, Duke Duozan did not leave a single mistake.

According to the report of the secret sentry sent by Cheng Lei, Fei Bo did not know where to recruit more than 100 mercenaries. However, these mercenaries are not as good as the Poison Fang Army, because they are so poor that they can't even get all the horses, and it seems that only two or three people have a horse. Moreover, their weapons and equipment are not comparable to the elite soldiers on Duke Dozan's side.

It may be that the rebels are afraid that this mercenary army will be in the same situation as last time, and they will be eliminated by Cheng Lei and them unknowingly. So instead of letting them camp outside the city, they went directly into their rebel camp in Silver Tower City.

Cheng Lei felt a little funny, Lige and these people are also some human spirits, but they are not the opponents of Duozan, the old fox, at all. They only knew how to gather more people to fight this battle, but they didn't think about it, the soldiers are expensive but not too expensive, and what is the use of more soldiers being straw bales!

Over the course of a week, the entire city knew that the two sides had reached a tipping point in the exchange of fire. Therefore, the common people in their vicinity have helped the old and the young to flee in all directions, and in a few days, there is no human population except for the fighting sides in a radius of more than ten kilometers around the Silver Tower.

Most of those who fled went to the West, South, and North Cities. Dongcheng is the most chaotic place in Yinta City, with many large and small gangs, so the serious people in these central cities will not flee to that kind of place. For them, it is better to flee to the East Side than to stay in the center of the city and resign themselves to their fate.

Maybe the rebels don't want to hurt the civilians, after all, they also want to succeed. If there are no people after success, who will pay taxes to feed them? So after a week, when all the people had fled, one night the rebel artillery finally thundered into the sky.

Cheng Lei was sleeping in the room at the time, and suddenly heard a thunderous sound, and immediately jumped up, with his many years of military experience, this is definitely not thunder but cannonball. After he got dressed, Zheng Bin also walked in.

"The rebels have begun shelling the Silver Tower, and our camp is within range. They smashed both lookout posts. Zheng Bin said, holding an automatic rifle in his hand.

Cheng Lei frowned and said, "Are there any casualties?" ”

"Not yet, they shelled the Silver Tower first, so the sentries at the lookout post came down when they saw that the situation was not good."

Cheng Lei nodded and said: "Order all the team members to assemble in the small playground behind the barracks, and Li Changcheng will lead the recruit company to participate." All the chariots and wagons were concentrated in the small playground, and all the weapons and supplies were also concentrated. ”

Zheng Bin nodded and went to make arrangements. Cheng Lei's heart was in a delicate mood at this time, and he didn't know if it was the bloodthirsty element in his heart that was causing trouble, his heart was full of expectation and excitement. There was no fear or worry, but anticipation and excitement, and he couldn't understand why he was in such an emotion.

It was raining, and although it wasn't pouring rain, it was drenching everyone. The queue of the Lion King Squadron stood neatly, and it was impossible to tell that this was a military appearance in the rain. The recruit company also stood in a row, and although they had only been training for a short time, they were still standing in a decent military posture.

Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin stood at the front of the queue, although they were both wearing military raincoats, the rain kept flowing down their cheeks. The cannon roared not far away, and from time to time, a shell would fall on the large playground of the Lion King Squadron, blowing up a big crater, but no one looked at it except for the recruits under Li Changcheng.

"Brothers, we have been in this Silver Tower City for some days. Duke Dozan also agreed to some of our conditions, so to speak, when this battle is over, we can have our own territory and our own foothold. And we'll have a steady stream of supplies and money to replenish our military resources, so it's time to give it a go. From today onwards, our goal is to help Duke Dozan defeat the rebels and defend Silver Tower! ”

Cheng Lei paused and continued: "The Night Lion Squad and the War Eagle Squad will go to the Silver Tower with me to report first. The Viper team and the recruit team are under the command of the instructor, and all the vehicles are left behind to collect the remaining supplies and armaments, and immediately rush to the Silver Tower. ”

"The Night Lion Squad and the War Eagle Squad are in two columns, listen to my commands and stand upright! Turn right, aim for Silver Tower, and head at full speed! After speaking, Cheng Lei led the team to run towards the Silver Tower.

Zheng Bin looked at the rest of the people, some of them were the fighters of the Viper Squad, and some of them were the recruits. Originally, he was still a little worried about the recruit team, but now looking at their already somewhat shaped formation, he is still quite satisfied. This is all thanks to the training of Li Changcheng, the captain of the recruit team, for these mercenary veterans during these days.

"Without further ado, as soldiers, we have to look like soldiers! Viper 1 listened to the order, and led half of the Viper team to check all the supplies and equipment, and the other half was responsible for vigilance, and took immediate action if there was anything abnormal! ”

"Yes!" Captain Pan Jin divided the people into two parts, half led by himself to inspect the supplies and equipment, and the other led by the deputy captain to guard the area around the Duke's Palace.

Zheng Bin continued: "Brothers of the recruit team, it stands to reason that you have not completed the systematic training, and you should not be allowed to participate in the battle. However, the war is urgent, and our Lion King squadron lacks manpower, so although you don't need to participate in the battle directly, do you have confidence in completing the logistics of the main force under the leadership of your captain? ”

"Yes!" The soldiers of the recruit squad shouted in unison.

"Good! Everyone listened to my orders and loaded all the supplies that the Viper team had put in order. The horsemen pulled out all the wagons and prepared them for loading. Li Changcheng, you are responsible for the overall command! After Zheng Bin finished speaking, he went to the warehouse and went to sort out the materials with Pan Jin.

Li Changcheng just said one sentence: "The soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, and now we are all supply soldiers, so we are more important than the front line!" Let's go! ”

Cheng Lei: They were very close to the Silver Tower, so as soon as they walked out of the gate of the Duke's Palace, they saw that many of the nearby buildings had been blown to pieces, and there was smoke and fire. Although the soldiers of the two squads in full armor also had rich combat experience, they were still shocked to see the scene in front of them, after all, this was not an exercise.

With a "whoosh", a bullet flew past Cheng Lei's ear, and Cheng Lei immediately made a scattered gesture for everyone to find cover and hide. Picking up the binoculars, it turned out that at some point, in a building between the temporary base of their Duke's Palace and the Silver Tower, the enemy had already prepared an ambush.

No wonder Duke Dozan didn't send anyone to ask for reinforcements after the battle began, it seems that they were all wiped out by the people in this stronghold, and the few corpses outside the building speak for themselves. This Duke Duozan is really enough to take care of the head and tail, so let people bury a nail in a key place.

But I also blame myself, after hearing the sound of cannons, I gathered everyone back to the temporary base to prepare for action, and if there were a few dark sentries left outside, it would not be as troublesome as it is now. These people in Baili really took advantage of this time difference, and in just one hour they set up their troops on the main road between Dozan and the Lion King's squadron, and it seems that the people in the building should be some dead soldiers.

"Captain, what should I do?" Shao Qian quietly came to Cheng Lei's side and asked.

Cheng Lei glanced at him and said, "Arrange snipers and attack!"

"No, captain, there will definitely be casualties in the attack, but our team members are limited." Yin Kaicheng also squeezed over, and hurriedly said when he heard Cheng Lei's words.

"So what do you say?" Cheng Lei looked at them with some sly eyes.

Shao Qian didn't notice Cheng Lei's expression, thought for a while and said: "I think we can use the old method of that day, howitzers and heavy machine gun flamethrowers take turns to fight, and snipers carry out long-range escort, so that the losses can be minimized."

"Xiao Yin, what is your opinion?" Cheng Lei asked.

Yin Kaicheng thought for a moment: "I think Shao Qian's plan is still relatively good, let me add that we can also use the special tactics of that battle." Throwing a few flashbangs or something when they're most paralyzed would be perfect and would minimize our human losses. ”

Cheng Lei said with a smile: "In the future, after we establish a foothold here, there will definitely be more and more people, and there will be more and more when you lead the troops to fight independently." Therefore, you should give full play to your own abilities, think more independently, and look at problems from the perspective of a commander. But today's opponents, it's not enough to worry, visually look at the appearance of about twenty or thirty people on the other side, can't we special forces beat them? ”
