Section 728 Accidents
Although there were some problems in the middle that were not too big or small, and the results were not as rich as expected, they still could not change the result of the expeditionary force's complete victory.
This is a crucial victory for the entire Northern League. The expeditionary force personally raised by the princess of the north won the first battle, which means that in addition to her own strong force, the princess also has a wise mind and accurate eyesight, so her prestige has risen to a higher level.
The defeated coalition army is like a flock of fleeing sheep in all directions, and the expeditionary force is like a vicious wolf, giving full play to the advantages of the mercenary profession of "good at small-scale independent combat, good at field tracking and survival", divided into multiple small units, and followed behind the rear of the rout.
In this way, the expeditionary force pursued all the way to the border of the Silverclaw Principality, but Chen Xing was not satisfied with this, and ordered the troops to cross the border and continue the pursuit.
Through tactical satellites, Chen Xing observed that the marginal towns near the border were in a state of emptiness, and immediately ordered an attack. Within three days, six edge towns were defeated in a row.
When the news came back to the Principality of Longhong, the whole country immediately celebrated, even the tabloids and magazines that were very unfriendly to Chen Xing before, they had to praise a few words, and the stars shone brightly and they were invincible.
The reason for such a result is that Wei Haitang did not send troops to support out of prudent considerations, but heavily guarded two large towns in strategic locations.
First, he was afraid of being hit by the rout.
Sometimes your own army is more terrible than the enemy's army. In order to escape for their lives, it is not uncommon to storm their own defenses, causing the otherwise normal troops to fall into chaos. You can't kill your own people casually, and at this time, the enemy troops who are following will take advantage of the chaos to enter, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Second, the combat strength of the expeditionary force was underestimated.
Wei Haitang never fights uncertain battles. Although the coalition forces are basically miscellaneous soldiers from various countries, they are also 800,000 people, and they are not without a little combat effectiveness. Even Qin Wu, who had a gluttonous monarch, was broken by the other party with an arm, which can only show that his combat power is not weak, and he must deal with it carefully.
Because of Wei Haitang's cautious approach, Chen Xing easily took the six edge towns of the Silverclaw Principality at the junction of the Devil's Cry Plains.
Among them, only one edge town resisted desperately, and from the mayor to the city defenders, the whole army was wiped out. The two fringe towns only symbolically resisted for a moment, and then surrendered. The remaining three fringe towns fled without a fight, relinquishing control.
After taking the six edge towns, Chen Xing did not
Continue eastward. Across in front of him were two heavily guarded towns, one on the left and one on the right, completely blocking the road to the Silver Eagle Territory.
The expeditionary force had just finished a big battle, and it needed to be recuperated and reorganized, and it was unable to fight a tough battle.
He set up his headquarters in a fringe town called "Dada Town".
Dada is the best of the six fringe towns, built on a low stone hill, occupying a commanding height, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
At the same time, Dada Town is also the only town that has resisted desperately. The city defenders and some Silver Claw citizens only had a few hundred people, but it took Chen Xing an entire afternoon, and he also lost a town-guarding officer and hundreds of soldiers before it was defeated.
Nowadays, in addition to the homeless people living in the shack area, the silver-clawed citizens with black tables are basically dead and fleeing.
After occupying Dada Town, Chen Xing gradually gathered his troops and then dispersed to the five surrounding occupied towns.
With Dada Town as the center, the six edge towns are horns of each other, echoing each other from afar, forming a solid line of defense.
The war entered a stalemate, and Chen Xing kept his eyes back on China while repairing his troops.
A few days later, an article titled "What was she doing?" The article quietly appeared on the major online platforms and newspapers and magazines of the Red Dragon Principality.
This article first describes what happened from an objective point of view. The First Elite Regiment of the Expeditionary Force pursued Qin Wu, the commander of the Allied Army, and the First Army of Chiyan pressed the border, intending to rescue the Marshal of the Allied Army and encircle and suppress the officers and men of the Expeditionary Force who were lone and deeper.
However, in the face of the empty Chiyan First Army in the rear, the Red Dragon Second Army did not move, missing the opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the enemy's main force.
Then the question was raised about what the Supreme Commander of the Red Dragon Second Army, Lacey Marris, was doing at that time and why he missed such an obvious fighter.
The article adopts an objective tone, argues and confirms from all sides, and finally comes to the conclusion that the iceberg goddess who attaches equal importance to wisdom and beauty cannot miss the opportunity, and must have been taking a bath at that time, because the heartthrob princess of Allure takes more than an hour to take a bath, and in such a long time, it is very normal to miss a fleeting opportunity.
At the end of the article, the words seem to be serious, but they are actually slippery, suggesting that the beauty is bathing, the ice muscle and jade skin, the beauty is delicious, the reverie is beautiful, and the fragrance is fragrant.
When Lacey finished reading this article, she was trembling with anger, and her chest rose and fell violently
, a pair of plump almost tearing through the clothes, tearing the newspaper to shreds on the spot.
"I want you to die, die!"
She gritted her silver teeth, hated it to the extreme, and after tearing up the newspaper, she was still angry, and she tore a room full of sheets and pillows. The bright red nails were sharp and sharp, tearing cotton wool into pieces.
However, nothing she did did did to cause any damage to the person who was thousands of kilometers away, not even a single hair.
Soon a second article appeared, in which he told in a sympathetic tone the miserable situation of the expeditionary force, fighting for the country, but without even the most basic ammunition supplies, and denouncing those selfish magnates.
The article quickly provoked the indignation of the domestic population. Seeing death and not saving it, stabbing a knife in the back is a taboo in the red country with a martial style. The people worship force and the strong, and only the weak will make small moves behind their backs.
In order to alleviate the pressure of public opinion, the Grand Duke of the Red Dragon, Salod, personally issued an order of the lord of the country and dispatched ammunition from the military headquarters to fill the vacancy in the expeditionary force.
Then the third article appeared again. This time, he was crying poor, and countless soldiers were shrouded in horses and sacrificed their lives for the country, but the expeditionary force couldn't even afford pensions......
There was a touch of sadness between the words, but also full of tragic emotions, and the people were moved by it and donated one after another. The Grand Duke of the Red Dragon was forced to withdraw part of the military funds from the First and Second Armies to help supplement the expeditionary force.
Lacey was reluctant to take her military expenses like cutting her flesh and giving it to Chen Xing to eat, physically and mentally traumatized, but helpless.
During this time, Chen Xing had money and food, and his life was very nourishing.
But then, something happened that he didn't expect.
It was so sudden that he didn't have time to prepare.
When he woke up one day, he felt his scalp swell and his skin tingled slightly.
Through the inward view of the realm, he soon discovered the problem, the black hole under the sea that absorbed the spiritual energy overflowed from the black pottery urn was gone.
He probably knew what was going on, and his body's abnormal reaction was a sign of psionic overload.
He quickly withdrew his consciousness from the realm and pulled out the old pocket watch that Shad Sinclair had given him.
The copper shell is as bright as new, and when you open the lid, the glass surface is full of light, and the clock walks slowly, and it is completely restored!
