Chapter 211: Onslaught all the way
The people of the Four Seas Country and the Black Gold Group have similar ideas, while sending troops to reinforce Tieshan City, they told Cao Po to drag it first without starting a war, if it is really Zhang Zhen who gets the fortress, he has to see what the Black Gold Group has to do first.
Cao Po was relieved to receive this order, and he was not in a hurry, and he was even more relieved to see Yu Lihuang's corps retreating from the border at night, and even planned to return the corps that had just been recruited from various towns, so as not to be looted by the plunderers in various towns, but fortunately, he decided to wait until the reinforcements from above arrived at noon the next day.
When Cao Po was still drunk and hazy the next morning, the adjutants who came to report urgently frightened him, and it seemed that Zhang Zhen didn't plan to play any tricks this time.
"Lord, Yu Lihuang's corps is in again."
"Lord, we're only a hundred kilometers away from that fortress, and the outpost has confirmed that it's really coming at us."
Cao Po poured water to sober himself up and said, "How long are the reinforcements above, and how many?" ”
"According to the information, only the critical ironforge fort sent a legion over, about seventy chariots arrived in five hours, and only a small corps was sent above, and if it was rushed overnight, it would have to be midnight."
"Lord, what should I do?"
"Defend the city, it's a fortress."
"The two towns in front of the city are gone, and that's our frontline."
"Thirty chariots were lost yesterday, and we now only have about one hundred and twenty main troops, and if we don't concentrate to defend the city and disperse our troops, we will lose a lot!"
"The corps that does not defend Lihuang can reach the city within three hours, and the speed of the fortress is estimated to come in four to five hours.
"Then we have to wait until reinforcements come, and who knows what terrible weapons the fortress has."
"Shut up!" Cao Po felt that his head was about to explode, and this group of subordinates would be noisy when they encountered something, let alone a suggestion that satisfied him, and there was not even a unified opinion.
Everyone hurriedly shut up, staring at Cao Po one by one, anyway, Cao Po took the idea at a critical time, and they were used to arguing.
Cao Po really had no idea this time, he was so anxious that he walked around the house, if it was like before, it was a big deal to go out and fight in a chariot, and he really couldn't shrink the city and defend it for ten days and a half months, but this time he encountered the most terrible Hongcheng fortress in rumors, with the top weapons before the end of the world, there was no confidence in the fight, and there was no confidence in defending the city.
He tugged at his hair and watched the time, hoping that the reinforcements from the Iron Fort would fly over in an instant, so that he would always have some confidence in fighting or defending.
"Lord, it's too late to give an order, Yu Lihuang's chariots are about fifty, and they are already approaching the town on the front line, and there are only a few cars in the town that can fight with Yu Lihuang's elite corps, and if you don't withdraw or reinforce the town, you will lose it in vain!"
"Ma, Qiao commanded two corps to fight with Yu Lihuang, try Yu's confidence, if you can't defend it, you can retreat directly, we just need to drag the reinforcements to the Iron Fort to come." Cao Po finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Zhang Zhen leisurely drank wine in the fortress at this time and learned more about the weapons in the fortress, the fortress drove directly to Tieshan City on the main road, the speed reached seventy kilometers per hour, and the troops could come to the city at noon, and he also estimated that Cao Po had almost recruited reinforcements.
Soon, Yu Lihuang's corps appeared in front of a small town at the front of Tieshan City, this town is similar to Lao Heizi's town, dilapidated, living in a nest of savages, robbers and bandits, ordinary wars These people can also be classified as combat effectiveness in C-level B-level chariots, and in the formal war before the two lords, these people are cannon fodder for a matter of seconds.
The town was in a state of chaos, with no more than twenty chariots with armor and vehicle-mounted weapons, and the mayor summoned everyone to join the battle, and some bandits and savages wanted to slip away, or they wanted to take advantage of the chaos to plunder the town's supplies and run away.
Yu Lihuang's corps began to fire rockets and howitzers into the town without saying a word, and the chariots carrying rocket nests and howitzers pulled out the four defensive towers in front of them in a matter of moments.
When Cao Po's men heard the sound of gunfire, they rushed over with full horsepower, and as soon as they rushed through, they found that Yu Lihuang's corps was divided into three formations and blocked the three directions in front of the town, left and right, and the artillery bombarded the dilapidated town mercilessly.
Commander Qiao entered through the back door and had an urgent discussion with the mayor, and then decided to let the mayor send the town to gather the marauder corps to go out from the main gate, and then Qiao commanded the troops to destroy a corps of Yu Lihuang from the flank, and then the mayor led the corps to rush out of the main gate to form a trap to destroy the rest.
This plan is really wonderful, but it's a pity that the corps formed by the marauders and savages is willing to be cannon fodder, and they are forced to go out of the city and be bombarded by countless shells, and in an instant several cars become iron shells, and the rest of the guns are not fired, and they flee directly in all directions while driving the car, Qiao commanded the two corps to separate the left and right to attack the Yu Lihuang Corps in front of the formation, and as soon as they rushed up, they found that the other party had already arranged artillery and waited for them, and more than a dozen chariots were knocked out in an instant.
Commander Qiao saw that the firepower could not be compared with the opposite side, so he immediately led all the chariots to quickly retreat and rushed to another nearby town to assemble.
When the mayor learned that the cannon fodder sent out, he smoked and disappeared, and he failed to involve Yu Lihuang's troops in the slightest, and the reinforced corps was directly artillery, and the whole person was covered, and he fled from the back door with the corps in a panic to chase Qiao's command.
I thought that Yu Lihuang's corps would plunder their town first, but I didn't expect to catch up in an instant behind the buttocks, and the mayor urgently called Qiao who fled in front of him to command the rescue, but Commander Qiao thought that fighting now would wipe out the whole army, and it would be wise to reorganize the troops in the next town and defend the town.
The mayor of the town really became cannon fodder this time, and more than 20 chariots were turned into fireballs one by one by the Yu Lihuang Corps that was chasing.
Zhang Zhen had already found out that Yu Lihuang's corps had easily knocked out the first town by relying on the drone, and had destroyed dozens of chariots almost unscathed, and raised his eyebrows and said: "The Flying Dragon Brigade listens to the order, there is a small town seventy miles ahead, Lord Yu's corps is preparing to take it, you drive the warship to support, and the drone will provide battlefield intelligence in the air." ”
"Yes!" The Flying Dragon Brigade, which had long been unable to hold back, had to order everyone to jump directly from the platform onto the slide and quickly enter the battleship platform in an instant, and quickly jumped onto the battleship and flew out of the fortress one by one.
Qiao commanded the panic to flee into the town and came to the guard tower to drink water and prepare to issue a defensive order, but saw that Yu Lihuang's corps had chased to the front of the town, and hurriedly put the water tank and said: "Those who can participate in the battle will participate, the 1st squad will guard the back door to prevent the mob from making trouble, and the town mayor will gather people to guard the town gate." ”
"Commander Joe, is this plane on the radar?" The mayor of the town guarded the only radar in the town with a range of ten kilometers, but usually could not even be detected by a chariot with improvised camouflage, and pointed to the ten red dots in surprise.
Commander Qiao looked at the red dot with a confused face and said, "There are only a handful of people who have an aircraft battle group in the last days, and even if you fight Iron Mountain City, you don't need to be so extravagant." ”
"Don't look at the radar, look outside the town!" An intelligence officer pointed out the tower window and roared in surprise.
Everyone looked out the window, and saw the warships rushing towards the town, and the mayor of the town was in a hurry to lead the fort to defend, when he saw one rocket explode at the fort on the city wall, and then several rockets roared towards the tower.
"Collar ...... Lord, the tower of the last frontline town exploded. The intelligence soldier outside sent back the information with trembling fingers.
Cao Po opened his mouth in disbelief when he received this news, and looked in disbelief at the direction dozens of miles away, as if he had seen the flames rushing to the sky, even if he didn't send two corps over, the two towns shouldn't be gone so quickly, right?!
