Although the Holy Alliance is outnumbered, most of the low-level soldiers are unlikely to have so many fish to supplement their nutrition like Black Iron City, if they can really mechanize their operations, or even reach the level of fish farming, then Black Iron City will not need to play, and it may be better to surrender directly.
It is precisely because of the fatal flaw of the other party that Shu Han's sneak attacks have been able to succeed repeatedly, because in the dark, the other party is a blind man, and if he wants to see the surrounding situation, he must light the torch, and this also exposes the other party's whereabouts to Shu Han and others, at the same time, Shu Han's troops are very popular in the local area, and even when dealing with the surrounding villagers, they will give them a part of the food directly, so that they can spend this difficult time, it is precisely because of this, Most of the people in Yangcheng have a good impression of Black Iron City, and they are willing to work hard for Shu Han and provide some help within their ability, which makes Shu Han have these tens of thousands of women and children as eyes and ears out of thin air, and they can timely and effectively understand the deployment of the surrounding army, which also makes their plans more daring.
Liu Sanyi and Shu Han have only one purpose, that is, to completely swallow all the three thousand enemy soldiers south of Yangcheng, not one left, this is undoubtedly an extremely dangerous task, for more than a month, Zheng Yuanche is not nothing, during this time, he mobilized a part of the Yangcheng prisoners to build a large number of fortifications around the village, especially the one that is regarded as a small town, it is a key defense, a large number of bunkers and cement fixed towers, so that Shu Han and others want to conquer the city is very difficult.
But at the same time, Shu Han also thought of some ways, that is, to mobilize those captured Yangcheng people, this is a fatal mistake made by Zheng Yuanche, they use Yangcheng people to build watchtowers and pillboxes, which can undoubtedly speed up their construction, and the soldiers of the Holy Alliance are not willing to do such dirty work, but after the project is over, Zheng Yuanche directly locked up all the prisoners in the town in order to facilitate management, a total of about 3,000 people, a large scale.
Zheng Yuanche's angle is that there are so many people, it is not convenient to transport them back and forth, and at the same time, there are twenty or thirty thousand men in their hands, so many prisoners, it is completely enough to deal with the side of Yangcheng, it doesn't matter if these three thousand people stay, most of their women are under the villages under their control, as long as their families still want to live, they must obey their own arrangements.
Zheng Yuanche thought it was undoubtedly very good, but unfortunately, the people of Yangcheng didn't like them at all, but they didn't have the strength to resist, plus Yangcheng was besieged, it was difficult for the rulers within Yangcheng to establish effective communication with their people, which eventually led to the Holy Alliance being able to do whatever they wanted, but now it is obviously not possible, the Holy Alliance's blockade of Yangcheng has loopholes, and these loopholes have allowed Yangcheng to re-establish contact with the local people, on the other hand, the Black Iron City side is also acting, Although there was no greeting on both sides, there was still a tacit understanding, and just tonight, the envoy of Yangcheng finally came to Shu Han's camp.
Liu Sanyi took all the Skywalkers in the entire military camp to receive them personally, Shu Han also sat aside, the envoys of Yangcheng were two Skywalkers, dusty and dusty, obviously very tired all the way over, Liu Sanyi asked people to send hot water, and then welcomed them very affectionately, and then the two sides jointly insulted the sins of the Holy Alliance, and said that the strong friendship between the two cities has a long history, and the Black Iron City can't bear Yangcheng to be tortured like this, so he poured the country's soldiers to help Yangcheng.
Both sides of these polite words know that it is just a trick to deceive people, and it is impossible for Black Iron City to help for no reason, and Yangcheng also knows that if this battle is not without the help of Black Iron City, they cannot win, so after the two sides have an intimate conversation, they will enter the meat play, Black Iron City's requirements are that after the victory of the war, Yangcheng will surrender to Black Iron City, and the two sides will be integrated into one, of course, Black Iron City will definitely not treat Yangcheng badly, and all Yangcheng residents and Black Iron City people enjoy the same treatment, At the same time, the Skywalkers of Yangcheng will be on an equal footing with the Skywalkers of Black Iron City, and if there is a major event, it will be decided by both parties, which is not an annexation, but a merger.
Liu Sanyi's conditions are undoubtedly very harsh, if it is placed in normal times, the representatives of Yangcheng will not even think, but at this time, compared with the conditions of the Holy Alliance, the conditions of the Black Iron City are undoubtedly quite easy, and at this time, the Yangcheng has no choice, without the help of the Black Iron City, the destruction of the Yangcheng is only a matter of time, and even the destruction at this moment may not be.
But the envoy said: "We can consider your conditions, but there is one thing, we in Yangcheng will definitely not live according to the system of Black Iron City, we have our own system, this point, please be sure to guarantee, if we want to change our traditions, then we can only go to the Holy Alliance." ”
Liu Sanyi ignored the pale faces of several Skywalkers in the Black Iron City next to him, and said: "Of course, all the habits of Yangcheng are still the same, we will never interfere, I said, this is not a annexation, but a merger, since it is a merger, there is no coercion at all, as long as you are unwilling, we will definitely not interfere, you can still manage according to the original method, but the two cities must be truly integrated, the construction of roads, and the reform of the tax system, which are all necessary." ”
After the two sides are established on the general issue, the subsequent trivial matters naturally have no other meaning, speaking of this negotiation is not difficult, because both sides have reasons to cooperate, and for Yangcheng, they also see the strength of Black Iron City, now the world is becoming more and more turbulent, the growth of power is almost an instant to complete the thing, in this case, Yangcheng wants to protect itself, it is already impossible, in this case, take refuge in a city-state that is still quite understood, Obviously a better outcome.
After the two sides finalized the general outline of the matter, the two envoys of Yangcheng left, and the three children they brought with them stayed, these are three children between the ages of thirteen and fifteen, each of them is a Skywalker, obviously, Yangcheng showed their sincerity enough, and handed over most of the future of their city-state to Liu Sanyi, which is obviously the meaning of the hostages, otherwise Black Iron City would not dare to believe Yangcheng.
On the Yangcheng side, a Skywalker followed into Yangcheng to act as a hostage to ensure that the people of Yangcheng were at ease, and all these arrangements were made, Liu Sanyi and Shu Han led the team respectively, and began to detour on both sides of the road to prepare to attack the town, and the war would start at three o'clock in the morning, which was when people were most sleepy. 61 Library
On this day, Shu Han let the soldiers sleep early, and when they started to get up and march in the early morning, after arriving at the target location, Shu Han, as the main attacker, naturally waited for Liu Sanyi's order, and a small detail happened in the middle, that is, the original time was three o'clock in the morning, but when it was three o'clock, Liu Sanyi's signal was still not launched, which made the people on Shu Han's side anxious, and thought that something was wrong, and only later did they know that it was because all the cannons were in Liu Sanyi's place, The transportation of the 35 cannons was really a very hard work, and when we crossed the mountains and mountains in the middle, there were problems in the handling of several cannons, and the wooden carts transporting the cannons overturned several times, blocking the road.
Liu Sanyi could only temporarily arrange manpower to pull these artillery trucks back, which delayed a lot of effort, and when Liu Sanyi arrived at the combat target, it was about half an hour later than the time of the real battle, which was undoubtedly very torturous for Shu Han.
All kinds of thoughts in his heart are a hundred turns and thousands of times, just afraid that the other party will make some mistakes, resulting in no way to carry out the action, fortunately, in the end, Liu Sanyi's signal finally came, hearing the empty charge, Shu Han immediately commanded his soldiers to start charging the enemy, and at the same time, the Yangcheng prisoners in the town had already connected with this side, as soon as they heard the sound of the charge outside, they immediately began to join hands to resist the surrounding soldiers.
Because their location was investigated in advance, almost all of the artillery bombardment fell outside the prisoner circle, and the troops on Shuhan's side were raid troops, all cavalry, composed of six hundred people, which was all the family of the entire Black Iron City cavalry force, and was equipped with more than twenty Skywalkers, which can be said to be the most elite force, and its main task was to rush into the town, and respond to the captives of Yangcheng as quickly as possible, attacking the pillboxes and fortresses from both sides, so as to ensure that at the cost of minimal casualties, Take the town.
And before that, it was naturally Liu Sanyi to perform, with the blowing of the trumpet, thirty-five cannons spewed out fierce flames, iron cannonballs fell in the town, where it was hit, it was a piece of smoke and dust, a large number of houses collapsed, most of these houses were piled up with mud and wheat leaves, there was no defense at all, only those watchtowers made of cement, for these cannons have a certain protective ability.
And Liu Sanyi swaggered out the army directly, and the infantry phalanx of more than 3,000 people appeared on the town's defensive net, which naturally attracted the attention of the town's side, and they immediately mobilized troops to start dealing with Liu Sanyi's troops, and at this time, the number of troops guarding the captives began to decrease, and the Yangcheng prisoners immediately began to revolt, and the soldiers of the Holy Alliance were caught off guard.
Because it is empty-handed to fight the enemy, so the casualties are very large, and it also requires great courage, after all, people have guns in their hands, and you have nothing in your hands, in this case, they have to stand up and resist, no courage is not good, and this courage is from the promise of Black Iron City and Yangcheng, as long as they win this battle, they will return to their wives' side, if the children or wives, parents are killed, then when they catch those enemies of the Holy Alliance, they will be handed over to them for disposal as soon as possible.
At the same time, if they want to circumvent the lives of the captives and give the city a labor force, then the city will pay each of them in the unit of Black Iron City, and give five hundred yuan as compensation, which is already a very large amount of money for them, and it is precisely because of the inspiration of such a reward, coupled with the nostalgia for their families and the hatred of the enemy, they rose up to resist, and after sacrificing hundreds of people, they succeeded in taking the generals in the town by surprise for a short time.
He didn't know which part of the enemy to deal with for a while, so he could only subconsciously say: "Let the defenders in the west deal with the problem of the prisoner camp, and anyone who resists will be killed, and there is no need to report it to me." At this critical moment, the general guarding the town was obviously a little panicked, and directly sent his troops who were still in a state of readiness.
To be honest, he was indeed frightened, because in the dark, he had no way to see the specific number of people in the distance, because Liu Sanyi played a little trick at this time, he asked everyone to raise two torches, so that from a distance, it was torches and torches, and Liu Sanyi was very far away from the town, about one or two thousand meters or so, even if it was a Skywalker, unless he was equipped with a pair of telescopes, he couldn't see it at all, and the telescope was in the dark, where could he determine the specific number of people.
On the small hillside in the distance, Liu Sanyi's army of 4,000 was like a dragon, arranged horizontally, winding and twisting, looking like it had a scale of tens of thousands of people, which did not allow the town defender not to tremble, he only had more than 1,000 people in his hands, where did he dare to face such an army, on the one hand, he asked for assistance from the surrounding villages, and on the other hand, he could only use the reserves.
At this time, Shu Han's opportunity came, and after most of the opponent's western garrison began to move to the east, Shu Han did not hesitate at all, everyone rode on the war horse, and the hooves of the war horse were tied with cloth, and they directly charged the enemy, and the whole army almost did not make any sound, Shu Han wore a red scarf around his neck, so that Skywalker could see him, and everyone walked forward in the dark.
The troops of six hundred people, so neatly and uniformly, are worthy of being the real elite troops of Black Iron City, Shu Han's mood at the moment is undoubtedly excited, such a large-scale strategic policy is about to be realized in his own hands, this feeling, for Shu Han, is undoubtedly a very rewarding thing, but when it comes to the end, he is also more and more cautious, afraid that there will be a little mistake.
Passing through the villages, the enemies in these villages were obviously attracted by Liu Sanyi, and did not notice that behind them, there was a force that was rapidly excited, Shu Han silently praised Liu Sanyi in his heart, it was really amazing to be able to do this, and at this time, they were only a hundred meters away from the western defense circle of the town, and at this time, Shu Han finally didn't have to hide anymore, and rushed up directly on horseback, and the desert eagle in his hand fired three shots in a row, shooting down all three sentries on the roof of the building, at this time, The defenders of the town finally knew that behind them, such a force had been touched.
