Chapter 249: I'm Busy Beating You and I'm Busy Arguing
The answer is that it will not take half a day, and the city will be attacked at dawn, and the city will be in ruins at noon.
Even if the city had to blast the city wall to find a breakthrough, a huge bone and a small team of chariots could seal the opening, Zhang Zhen's Jiaolong could be blocked after installing the cannons in the fortress, and none of the several legions in the city could successfully surround it, and all of them were either blown up at the breakthrough or died directly in the city.
The city lord of Nitrate City wanted to surrender, but there was no way, Zhang Zhen ignored it, and only stopped after blowing up Nitrate City into ruins.
The Wild Lion Legion did not wait for the enemy support legion to rush over, and directly caught up, and ended the war in less than an hour with Jiaolong.
Zhang Zhen asked all the legions to assemble and repair outside the city, and eat, drink and rest generously.
The survivors of the city trembled in the ruins, and the whole city was filled with smoke and fire, but not a single one was unharmed.
The city lord of Nitrate City also luckily did not die, because Zhang Zhen did not let any legions enter the city at all, of course, don't think about it easily, all the city gates and mouths are bombed chariots, and the streets in the city are also scrapped chariots, and the survivors can only walk between the ruins.
He ...... They're just out there to recuperate? An elder watched with horror as the scout returned with a flickering image.
"They're all eating, will they come in after eating?" An officer had a cold sweat on his face, he had never fought such a defenseless war.
"They're moving north, and it feels like they're going to retreat." The intelligence officer replied excitedly.
The city lord of Nitrate City couldn't believe it: "Observe more, could it be a suspicious tactic and prepare to enter the city?!" ”
"It can be confirmed that the enemy is retreating, the giant bones are also in the trucks, and the vanguard has left." The intelligence officer affirmed.
The city lord of Nitrate City hurriedly climbed to the top of the tower full of fireworks, and watched all the members of Zhang Zhen's army retreat in disbelief: "They left like this?!" ”
Everyone was like him, even if they saw that there was no chariot in front of the city, they still couldn't believe that Zhang Zhen had withdrawn like this.
It wasn't until it was about to get dark, when they finally cleared the road and sent a reconnaissance vehicle to confirm that Zhang Zhen's army was returning to Wolong City, that everyone was sure that Zhang Zhen had really withdrawn, and one by one they fell into their chairs as if they had escaped death, breathing heavily.
Of course Zhang Zhen wants to withdraw, he is not here to plunder, there is nothing worth plundering, so there is no need to enter the city, this attack on the group of twin cities is more smooth than expected, everyone is proud, it seems that the cooperation with Yu Lihuang is very wise, Yu Lihuang is really a fierce general when he fights, although he has no great wisdom but has a small strategy, the important thing is to believe in him very much, this is the key to invincible.
The loss of attacking Shuangcheng was not large, and the casualties were almost uncountable, and after rushing back to Wolong City day and night, he began to take an emergency rest and prepare for the bait operation.
The Black Gold Group was shocked when they heard that Shuangcheng was wiped out overnight, it is understandable that Wolf Mountain City was destroyed, the city is poor and there are few generals, but the Nitrate City itself is rich, and it sent a legion to support, and it was gone in less than half a day, which is too scary.
The elders accused the Cabinet of having lost the Fortress and caused the group to lose its frontline fortresses, and the Cabinet accused the Council of Elders of not sending troops to reinforce Wolf Mountain, resulting in the lack of troops and the loss of the Twin Cities.
Cui Yang, the leader of the group, rubbed his temples and knocked on the table: "One day is noisy, don't be busy shirking responsibility, think about what Zhang Zhen's intentions are, and what we will do next." ”
The elder of the council said: "Zhang Zhen does not plunder the city, this is obviously the same as fighting Baicheng, ostensibly to avenge Yu Lihuang, but in fact, it is to give us a demonstration, and then gain time to storm the four seas, otherwise he is afraid that we will attack Wolong City and cut off his back road." ”
"That's not necessarily, Wolong City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, this sheep is extremely cunning, maybe it is like fighting the four seas, attracting us to attack Wolong City, he will attack us with leisure and waiting, so as to consume our troops, and finally attack us in one fell swoop." The cabinet minister looked at the elders of the council with disdain.
"There is also a face to say, the trouble of Baicheng is not the crime of your cabinet, if you don't send troops to attack Fengyang Town, how can Baicheng's heavy defense of the city be destroyed!" The Elders of the Council took the opportunity to lash out at the Cabinet again.
When the cabinet heard this, he was angry, slapped the table and said: "Baicheng was beaten, your Dongling City did not move, and watched Baicheng be destroyed, what are your intentions?!" ”
"It's ridiculous, Baicheng was destroyed in less than one night, Du Chong's command mistakes cut off many troops, Dongling City is far away, and it is useless to send the legion over, and it will be necessary to sacrifice combat power in vain......" The Council of Elders fought back angrily.
None of these people mentioned the second sneak attack on Fengyang Town because both sides agreed to send troops, but they returned with heavy losses, so they didn't mention it.
Cui Yang was angry and helpless when he saw this group of elders and ministers arguing like shrews and fighting, so he could only keep knocking on the table and drinking, but although he was the leader of the group, his power and majesty were gone.
In order to be the leader, he supported the formation of the cabinet, but as a result, the civil war of the group supported the establishment of the Council of Elders in order to quell the chaos, and the cabinet actually ruled the towns under his name to empty him, and the Council of Elders was in collusion with the lords of the cities, so he was in vain both inside and outside.
"Don't make any noise, depending on the weather, this cold night season may be very large, the entire north will be affected, the four seas are still waiting for our response, all decisions must be taken out immediately, there is no time to quarrel with you." Cui Yang's man in his forties is now like a child, powerless to persuade everyone.
"Listen to the leader, don't pursue right or wrong first, how to deal with Zhang Zhen at the moment is the most important thing." An elder calmly lit a cigarette he had gotten from Zhang Zhen.
"What is there to talk about, our attack on Fengyang Town was plotted, if we want to fight Zhang Zhen now, it must be a desperate gamble, with Zhang Zhen's current strength, we can't get any benefit from winning the alliance with the Four Seas Kingdom, it is better to gather troops in one place, and when Zhang Zhen destroys the Four Seas Kingdom and loses heavy troops, we can take it in one fell swoop." One minister seems to have had a plan.
An elder said angrily: "What is this called decision, now that the twin cities have been destroyed, we need at least five to seven days of marching to fight Wolong City, after the arrival of the cold night season, even if Zhang Zhen loses all the losses and takes the Four Seas Kingdom, we will not be able to take Zhang Zhen in the cold night season, and when the cold night season is over, Zhang Zhen is almost recuperating again, and our fighters are lost." ”
"Then you're advocating the Alliance?!" A minister slapped the table.
Another elder also said angrily: "What's wrong with the alliance, the Four Seas Kingdom has suffered heavy losses, and there are several cities in the hinterland, and Zhang Zhen has been destroyed by the army, and then we will still have many soldiers and many cities in the north, and annexing the Four Seas Country is not a low-hanging fruit?!" ”
"The humiliation of the second attack on Fengyang Town, you forgot about it?!" A minister finally couldn't help but mention: "According to the grapevine, we failed to fight Fengyang Town, and the attackers were not Zhang Zhen's people, most of them were the means of the Four Seas in order to force our alliance, and I prefer the guardians to make an obstacle from it, if this is the case, then the alliance is the plan of the guardians, and then the three sides will run out of ammunition and food, and I don't know who is cheaper in the north." ”
"You've told the gossip, how can it be trusted." An elder shot back: "Even if it is, we only have a good chance of winning with the alliance, Zhang Zhenneng can join forces with Yu Lihuang to destroy the Four Seas Kingdom, and can also destroy our Black Gold Group, if we don't join forces, it will be a dead end!" ”
