Suddenly, after receiving such an order, everyone was a little at a loss, after all, in their minds, now that the war has not broken out, everything should be gradual and slow, how can it be a storm at the beginning? But reality often does not follow people's minds, but will change quickly, fortunately, Shu Han was not frightened by this sudden move, and immediately began to deploy, the army itself was already in a state of high alert, just when everyone was in a meeting, they had already begun to prepare things, and they could set off anytime and anywhere, and now the most important thing is to let these Skywalkers immediately set off first, and go to the south bank to station for defense.

This requires a very fast speed, and these Skywalkers are still immersed in peace, and let them accept all this in a short time, naturally they are unwilling, just like people know that death will come eventually, but you think it will be ten or twenty years later, and in an instant he will come to you, most people can't accept it in a short time, in the morgue, often the family members who die of illness don't cry too loudly, it's not because they don't love their loved ones, but under a long period of torture, Mentally prepared.

The loudest crying, the loudest howl, are often those who die because of accidents, such as homicide, car accidents, factory accidents, etc., the death of these people, without giving people any time to accept, and then pass away, for his family and friends, this is unacceptable in a short period of time.

Of course, the acceptance of death is a huge proposition, and now let these Skywalkers immediately join the battle, it has not yet reached this level, but it is not much different, after all, the Holy Alliance is aggressive and leads the army forward, and the garrison on the south bank is only about 10,000 people, and in the face of the enemy's army, there are more than 100,000 at least, this is Shu Han's calculation, the entire Holy Alliance has a population of about four million or more, and the army has reached about 170,000 to 200,000, which can be said to be a level of exhaustion.

Such a large number of troops, in addition to guarding their own cities, must also retain a part of the defense of the first line of Guangyuan Kingdom, so the number of troops that can be mobilized should be between 70,000 and 100,000, and now he took the lead in launching an attack on Black Iron City, thinking that it is a full blow, the strength of the army cannot be less than 70,000, such a huge army, plus a powerful naval army, the pressure on the front line can be imagined, and it is precisely because of this that Skywalker must go to the front line, which will be of great help to the battle situation, but at the same time the danger is also quite large, It's still very difficult to get everyone to accept it for a while.

But at this moment, Shu Han didn't care so much, he said to everyone: "The enemy is menacing, we must act immediately, if we delay any longer, when the enemy officially launches an attack, our army's defense line on the south bank will completely collapse, and the market will not be guaranteed at that time, we will take the defense line of Asakusa City as the main defensive target, which is a huge threat to our army, and now our army has 10,000 defense troops on the south bank, 2,000 naval troops plus 15,000 Asakusa City garrison troops that have begun to move forward. If we don't make a quick decision, then these 30,000 troops will be wiped out by the enemy, everyone, please act as soon as possible, and do not think meaninglessly. ”

After Shu Han finished speaking, the people of the Joaquin faction naturally immediately stepped forward, with Shi Ping as the representative, and said in front of everyone: "The general's words are true and even reasonable, now that the enemy has invaded the door, there are only less than thirty kilometers left from us, everyone, instead of sitting here and talking, it is better to get up and act, I Shiping is willing to be the first." ”

With the person who took the lead, the people of Joaquin and his faction also got up to agree, with the example, the others were simply allowed, except for a few people who were still sad, most of them approved of Shu Han's plan, at this time only these Skywalkers could rush to the front line immediately, and at the same time, Shu Han allocated all the 2,000 cavalry in the army to Lin Bida, and he led the immediate support of the front line, and it was necessary to ensure that the defense line on the south bank was safe. “

This is a very difficult task, there are only 30,000 troops on the side of Black Iron City, and there is no strong naval army, while the army on the side of the Holy Alliance is about 70,000 to 100,000, and there is a strong navy, and the number of Skywalkers will definitely not be less than a hundred, it will be a huge challenge, but at this moment, Lin Bida did not say the worry in his heart, but said: "The subordinates will definitely complete the task." “

After everyone finished discussing, the army quickly marched, and Shu Han immediately arranged the army, packed up as quickly as possible, and then marched towards the direction of the market, and he took the lead in leading the remaining three hundred cavalry and one thousand tribal warriors to quickly rush to the direction of the market.

These merchants, deaf and clear-sighted, they are not slow to get the news at all, they must control the bazaar as soon as possible, otherwise those merchants of the Holy Alliance will inevitably make trouble, if there is a problem in the city behind the defense line at this moment, the entire Black Iron City will be in danger, so Shu Han personally led his personal guard troops to take the lead, only three hours later, he was the first to arrive at the bazaar, and stationed in the city hall.

The arrival of Shu Han and others has a very big impact on the entire market, since the establishment of the city, there has been no garrison, and Shu Han and others are the first troops to arrive, when they arrive, it is still early in the morning, but the city is not so quiet.

Obviously, as Shu Han expected, the Holy Alliance merchants in the city had also received the news, so there were quite a few bright lights in the city, but fortunately, Shu Han came very quickly, and before they could discuss a reason, Shu Han's army had already arrived, and quickly controlled all the obstacles, and by the early morning of the next day, the 40,000 army had also arrived, and by this time, even if the Holy Alliance had any conspiracy brewing in this bazaar, it was too late.

And three hours before this, the Holy Alliance really didn't want to give any time to the side of the Black Iron City, an hour after Shu Han received the report, the Holy Alliance officially launched an attack on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the Black Iron City, with the cooperation of artillery, and the powerful offensive of the navy, although the south bank defense line on Shu Han's side was not like paper, but it could not resist the opponent's powerful offensive at all.

And it happened to be autumn at this time, the autumn harvest had just ended, the Yangtze River had reached the dry period, the width of the entire horizontal plane was no more than 100 meters, in this case, as long as the cannons on the opposite bank were erected on the high ground, they could shoot directly at the defense construction on the opposite bank, although there were also some cannons on Shuhan's side, but the number was too small, on Liu Sanyi's previous deployment order, a large number of artillery pieces had been transferred to the direction of Guangyuan Kingdom first, and at this time there were only about twenty artillery pieces in the south bank area, On the side of the Holy Alliance, there are more than one hundred and forty large and small artillery, and a large amount of artillery fire pours out, and the side of Black Iron City has no way at all, and can only rely on cement fortifications to resist, but the firing of cannons is impossible to complete as usual, as long as the artillery men on the side of Black Iron City are ready to act, there are more than four or five cannons coming towards them, and the huge roar is enough to make people's ears instantly lose the analysis of the sound, under the suppression of this artillery, The sailors of the Holy Alliance began to march towards the south bank with troop carriers, and the defenders on the south bank had no way at all, under the suppression of firepower, no more than ten of the twenty cannons could be used normally, of which no more than five could shoot accurately, and at this time, the water surface of the Yangtze River was only less than a hundred meters wide, and it only took ten minutes for the opponent's ships to row over, and it took an average of three or four minutes to load a cannon, so in such a little time, a dog fired three cannons.

What's more, when the ships got closer, there was also a roar on it, and on the big wooden ship in front, there were more than twelve cannons in a row, although the caliber of the cannonballs was not large, at most it was only some small 75 mm guns, after all, the big guns could not hit it, otherwise it was the thrust of a shell, which was enough to tilt the ship, but even so, at such a close distance, these cannons still brought great trouble to the defenders on the south bank, and at the same time there were soldiers on the ships, At this time, he was holding muskets and shooting at those land fortifications for cover shooting, and the entire south bank was suppressed in a passive situation in an instant, and it was difficult to move at all.

Soon, the opponent's ships have begun to move closer to the land on the south bank, at this time, the number of defenders on the south bank of the Black Iron City is seriously insufficient, the embankment on the entire south bank has a route of more than two kilometers, and the defense force of the Black Iron City is only more than 10,000 people, and the troops of Asakusa City have not yet arrived, the troops are seriously insufficient, and the firepower is a fraction of the opponent's, in this case, it is impossible to achieve victory by relying on people alone.

Fortunately, Shu Han's order was given early and decisively, two hours after the outbreak of the war, just when the war was in full swing in front, the Holy Alliance was about to take the south bank, and the landing force had exceeded 20,000, the reinforcements of Black Iron City finally arrived, and there was still half an hour before Shu Han entered the bazaar, and these cavalry and Skywalkers arrived at the most critical moment, instantly changing the pattern of the battlefield.

At this time, the Holy Alliance's troops crossing the river were almost infantry, and the cavalry was behind, because the cavalry needed to bring the horses to land, so there were very few people on a boat, and the action was also very inconvenient, so when arranging the attack, the cavalry was arranged in the back, and the idea of the Holy Alliance at that time was very simple, they were so caught off guard by the attack, Black Iron City would definitely not pay attention, so the defensive forces on the south bank were very few, and most of them were fortresses, and the cavalry was of little use to the fortress, and the infantry was completely fine.

And the great plains in the rear is the time when the cavalry shows their role, at this time, letting the cavalry go first, it will undoubtedly consume the ability of the cavalry, and when the time comes, the speed will be slowed down, so according to this logic, the Holy Alliance naturally put the cavalry on the ship behind, logically speaking, there is nothing wrong, but the only problem is that they didn't expect Shu Han to turn the gun so quickly, and at the same time, the Skywalkers in Black Iron City would move so fast, just a little bit faster, Just as they were about to occupy the entire southern bank, Lin Pida arrived with two thousand cavalry and one thousand Skywalker soldiers and more than sixty Skywalkers, which was already half of all Skywalkers in Black Iron City today, and the rest were either in Shuhan's army or garrisoned in various cities.

The cavalry faced the infantry, and the combat effectiveness between the two sides was naturally incomparable, not to mention that the soldiers who first set foot on the south bank were already exhausted at the moment, and the war was about to be won, but at this time, everything had suddenly changed, and this war would start again, looking at the smoke and dust in the distance, the soldiers of the Holy Alliance had lost the will to fight, and at this time, Lin Bida led the cavalry, launched a charge, and round after round of musket shots were enough to make them completely disrupted.

At this time, the main fleet of the Holy Alliance has also docked on the shore, which is obviously a mistake made by the Holy Alliance, they think that the reinforcements of the Black Iron City cannot arrive so quickly, so they directly unload the small guns on the ship from the ship and put them on land to shoot, which will obviously increase the accuracy of the artillery, after all, put it on the ship, the ship will fluctuate with the movement of the water, the shooting of the cannonball, the accuracy is very poor, and on land, the accuracy will naturally become much more accurate, but at this time, these artilleryAfter capturing these artillery sites, he immediately centralized the management of these dozens of small artillery pieces and directly fired at the ships that were still on the water at this time, while he himself led the main cavalry force to begin a rapid attack on the enemy's landing force.

These infantry themselves are besieging the pillboxes and fortifications of the Black Iron City, where can they defend against the cavalry of the Black Iron City at this time, and they will soon be swept down a large area, but the army of the Holy Alliance is not vegetarian, and they have survived in the war to this day, and these soldiers of the Holy Alliance are also elite divisions, so after a short panic, they quickly began to assemble, and at the same time, some Skywalker officers shouted: "Don't be afraid, these cavalry are coming from Asakusa City, and they have long run out of strength, as long as we form a military formation, we can resist, Don't panic, everyone, there is a large army in our rear that can come to our aid, quickly abandon the attack on pillboxes, trenches, and approach the shore. “

Obviously, when these officers saw the cavalry, they already understood that this battle might not be so simple, and Black Iron City was also ready, but obviously, they were wrong in their prediction, at this time, Black Iron City was able to rush to the army only a little, and now these three thousand people are all of them.
