Chapter 151, Cruel Law
Forty-five hundred well-trained arquebusiers marched slowly through the Cyblas Mountains, leaving the mountains ninety kilometers from the city of Rearthur, and then turning onto the road leading to the city.
When this army appeared, it happened that a new recruit of Rearthur who had just finished training was marching down the road.
When the recruits saw the good arquebusiers approaching with neat steps, they wondered which of the standing armies of Rearthur City was.
But what they didn't notice was that the cavalryman who was in charge of leading them to the front line was already pale!
He wasn't one of these recruits who didn't even know the difference between uniforms and ranks, he had served in the Thermarthur army for more than a decade, and he was a well-known veteran.
He had already recognized that the other party was not a soldier from Rearthur City at all, but a strange army of unknown origin!
Although he also knew that the other party was not the army of Nias City.
But at this stage of the war, it is impossible for any foreign army to have good intentions.
"Run!"
The cavalry restrained his emotions and let out a loud shout, then turned his horse's head and tried to flee.
But at this moment, the other party fired.
Projectiles rained down like a torrential rain covering the recruits, and in an instant corpses were strewn all over the field, and even the Rearthur cavalry who tried to escape was beaten like a hornet's nest.
The sudden burst of gunfire immediately panicked the nearby town.
However, although Zhou Mingyue is a little ruthless in exercising now.
But he wasn't the mad butcher either, so he didn't touch the town, but walked through it.
Upon learning that an army of thousands of people was rushing towards the city of Rearthur, the top brass of the city of Rearthur were shocked.
They couldn't have imagined where this strange army had come from.
Of course, some people may have guessed that it came from the Cyblas Mountains, but there is no point in discussing this at this time.
What they need is to send troops to intercept and prevent the entire city of Rearthur from being plunged into the flames of war.
Otherwise, the war with the city of Nias would have ended in the defeat of the city of Rearthur.
"Is it the army from Easter?"
The Grand Leader of Rearthur City sat on his throne with a full face and a big belly, his eyes full of fire, staring at the high-ranking below and roaring.
His guess wasn't too wrong.
After all, as it stands, the only city bordering Rearthur is Esther, except for Nias.
Although the city of Easter is weaker than the city of Binas, with a population of less than 500,000, and generally does not dare to provoke several nearby cities, the big leader of the city of Rearthur still locks the object of suspicion on the city of East.
The reason was simple, he really couldn't think of any other city other than Easter City that could raid Rearthur City.
The army in Nias City couldn't get around at all, and the other cities didn't border.
How do you make him suspicious?
But in the following time, the news received by the Grand Leader of Thermo Arthur City made him a little unbelievable.
The enemy army was overwhelmed, and the tens of thousands of troops he had dispatched in the past were completely defeated in an encounter, and the next defense line naturally could not stop the enemy's attack.
By this time, the strange army had already entered the city of Rearthur!
"Big Chief, why don't we shift our strategy first?"
The chief treasurer of the city of Rearthur was sweaty, and cautiously proposed.
After all, although he has a good relationship with the big chief, with the character of the big chief, it is difficult to say that he will not arrest himself for the crime of collaborating with the enemy!
After all, the Great Chief's personality was too tough, and in the past years, he simply could not tolerate his subordinates' weakness towards the enemy.
But this time it's different, the enemy has hit the city!
In other words, if nothing else, the big boss will not evacuate.
But if the big leader does not evacuate, these high-ranking officials below him naturally have no reason to retreat.
You don't want to die here.
But what everyone present never expected was that in the face of the treasurer's suggestion, the big leader pondered for a while, nodded and agreed to the matter, and immediately stunned everyone.
This is completely unreasonable, right, shouldn't the big boss just reprimand the treasurer and then push him out and shoot him to intimidate everyone?
Why is the Great Leader so merciful today?
But for those high-level leaders, what shocked them even more was that the big boss was willing to run?
This also means that the big leader is not optimistic about the next battle.
Not to mention that the great leader of Rearthur City began to prepare to run away on the other side, and on the other side, Zhou Mingyue continued to rush towards the urban area of Rearthur City with his army of arquebuses.
By this time, the arrival of the strange army had caused panic among the townspeople.
And those reinforcements from Rearthur City who kept coming from all over the country were as many as two or three hundred, and as few as fifty or sixty people, and they couldn't resist the attack of the army under Zhou Mingyue's command at all.
In fact, this is not surprising, even the great leader of the city of Rearthur did not expect that someone would kill the core of his dominion.
The army stationed in the entire urban area is only about 20,000 in total, and they are scattered at hundreds of key points as the core ruling force to maintain the entire urban area, playing an important role in maintaining law and order, intimidating the people, and maintaining the rule of the big chief.
The worst thing is that these armies must be a big leader before they have the right to order their mobilization.
In such a situation, it is understandable that these armies have been slow to react.
After collecting a certain number of arquebuses and corpses, Zhou Mingyue will release the war plane projection and start producing a new arquebus team.
In this way, the army under his command is bigger and bigger.
By the time he arrived at the Palace of the Grand Chief, the most important in Rearthur City, his arquebus team had reached 600 after the number of dead had been eliminated!
More than 9,000 fine arquebusiers!
To be honest, this was the first time he had felt the power of this treasure tyrant in the War Plane!
The city of Rearthur was completely unable to organize a revolt.
Bands of arquebusiers patrol the streets with well-armed arquebuses, ready to crush any resistance.
Of course, in reality, the chances of those citizens rebelling are very low.
The rule of the Grand Leader of Rearthur City over the citizens is probably the most brutal among the eight major cities.
It has promulgated all kinds of extremely strict laws, ranging from robbery and murder, embezzlement and bribery, to spitting and scolding the streets.
But these measures actually go beyond the level of reciprocal punishment.
Take spitting, which in other cities is usually fined how much, or dragged to the mine for three days to work, and so on.
But in the urban area of Hot Arthur City, spitting is directly dragged to the suburbs and shot!
