Chapter 116: Defeat on the battlefield of the coalition forces
There was more than one combat team sent by the coalition forces, but it was the first time for the combat team to try this form of warfare, but there were many things that the Tianhan National Army had never seen before, such as power grids and electric lights.

The allied soldiers of the combat team, they can sometimes see antenna-like things in the barracks of the Tianhan National Army.
What frightened them the most was the mines buried in the ground, which they had seen for the first time, and most of the soldiers were accidentally hit and paid a heavy price.
In these cases, it was difficult for the sent combat team not to fail, and only a very small number of troops destroyed a warehouse.
For the entire logistics department of the Tianhan National Army, the losses were not too great, and it also made them more vigilant.
The next time you want to sneak up on the logistics department again, it's not as easy as the first time.
The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, and many soldiers were still resting, sporadic gunshots rang out, warning every soldier that the war was not over.
The offensive of the Tianhan army was still fierce, and the various units were basically equipped with new equipment.
This time, the pressure on the coalition forces is much higher than the last time, and they have not even eaten up the advanced rear-loading guns, and the appearance of these new weapons is simply a nightmare.
On the artillery array of the Tianhan Army, the artillery continuously reloaded the shells and then opened fire.
Artillery is now the arm with the fewest casualties, after all, the howitzer range of the Tianhan Kingdom is nearly several kilometers, which is beyond the reach of any artillery of the coalition forces, and they are still struggling within 1 kilometer.
At present, it is still dominated by the army, and the air force has not been born, and if you want to destroy the artillery array, you must first deal with a large group of infantry in front of the artillery array.
They are all equipped with all kinds of advanced weapons, and the machine gun is one of the big killers, and it has become impossible to suppress them by numbers.
It was impossible to break through to the front, which made it more difficult for the coalition soldiers to attack the artillery position.
This is only one reason for the envy of the other soldiers, and the second is that the ammunition of the artillery is simply too sufficient.
Sky-high shells don't cost money, those that the soldiers see are not shells at all, but pieces of gold bricks!
And the artillery, these losers, will blow up if they want to, and if they blow up less, they will be reprimanded by the commander.
It's just infuriating!
Although the artillery consumed a lot of resources, the results they brought were also considerable, the positions of the coalition forces were basically blown up, and not a single pillbox was intact.
The shells also caused a great psychological shadow to the coalition soldiers, and when they heard the sound of the cannons, they couldn't help but tremble.
Under the baptism of shells, the front-line units of the coalition forces were dealt a heavy blow, their numbers were sharply reduced, and they could no longer defend effectively.
Finally, in the afternoon of the next day, the coalition forces gave up defending the town and began to retreat, after all, the whole town was also bombed, and it was in ruins, which was no longer suitable for defense.
In this town, the Tianhan National Army did not take a fancy to it, and followed the footsteps of the coalition army, as long as the other party was lax, they would bite off a piece of his meat.
One after the other, the two sides finally came to Dishi City, which is the capital of the Middle Earth Kingdom, and the defense is also very strong.
This time, the coalition army also realized that the Tianhan army was too strong, and it was impossible to send a large number of troops to help the Middle Earth Kingdom, leaving only one legion, that is, 10,000 people left behind to defend the prefecture and city.
plus 10,000 descendants of Xia Ding, as well as 100,000 militia on hard chips, a total of 120,000 people.
The army sent by the Tianhan Kingdom, including the navy, totaled more than 200,000 people, but the number of troops attacking the city was only 50,000, which was not considered elite.
It's not that the Tianhan Kingdom looks down on the coalition forces, so much territory needs to be occupied by the army, and it is not necessary to facilitate the 4 countries to counterattack from other directions, not to mention that the navy accounts for 50,000 people.
This is the pain of insufficient troops, although the number of troops is not very large, but as long as it does not occupy territory, it is still possible to directly collapse a country.
However, the Middle Earth Kingdom has been gradually replaced by the Heavenly Han Kingdom, and it is still very beneficial for the Heavenly Han Kingdom to annex that huge population.
For these reasons, the Tianhan Kingdom was not too anxious to fight a decisive battle with the last troops of the coalition army, and first stabilized the civilians occupying the territory.
The military discipline of the Tianhan Kingdom has always been good, and the quality of the clones is nothing to say, and the recruits recruited are originally from this country, and some bad events have not happened.
Not only that, but the troops stationed there also successfully cleared out the local bandits, robbers, and ruffians, and won a lot of favor.
Following this trend, it is only a matter of time before these populations become their own.
The Tianhan Kingdom besieged but did not attack, which made the coalition forces in Dishi City a little uneasy, especially Xia Ding, seeing that the coalition army only left one legion, he knew that the other party was almost on the verge of giving up on himself.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable, and he wanted the nobles of all countries to support him again, and the next battle must be won.
If he loses, he doesn't dare to think about it, you must know that the 4 countries can cease war with the Tianhan Kingdom, but he can't stop the war, this is the end of offending the Dead Tianhan Kingdom.
Even if he surrenders, it is estimated that the emperor of the Tianhan Kingdom will not agree, after all, the reason for the other party to declare war is for his own imperial concubine, and what kind of people are in dire straits.
If he knew that the 4 countries were so weak, and they were not the opponents of the Tianhan Kingdom together, he would not have offended the Tianhan Kingdom to death and regarded it as his own vote.
It's a pity that the matter has come to this point, and there is no room for regret.
Xia Ding, who was extremely depressed, also hated the army that killed Xia Qi, he obviously said that he was captured alive, why did he kill him.
What other party was killed by his own people?
I don't listen, I don't listen!
Xia Ding, who was under great psychological pressure, thought about executing that army to get angry, maybe he could let them take the blame, let the emperor of the Tianhan Kingdom dissipate his anger, and compensate for the loss.
Maybe the emperor of the Tianhan Kingdom is magnanimous and will let himself go, you must know that the second princess Xia Qi is his cousin, and the emperor of the Tianhan Kingdom is not his brother-in-law.
While Xia Ding was calculating, Tianhan issued an announcement:
Lin Xiao, the emperor of the Tianhan Kingdom, has been sick in bed for several days, and the emperor usually loves the people like a son, and is a corporal of Lixian, and he is deeply popular with the people.
Dealing with the murderer of the imperial concubine, the Tianhan Kingdom is determined to punish it severely!
After this announcement came out, the response from all parties was very high.
The army even let it go, and within one day they set foot on the city of the earth, captured Xia Ding alive, and hanged him on the city wall.
These words also reached Xia Ding, completely destroying the delusions in his heart.
Since there was no way to cease the fighting, Xia Ding simply resisted to the end, and he vigorously captured the strong men, and the number of militia increased from 100,000 to 300,000 in just a few days.
Basically, as long as they are all men, they are all arrested by Xia Ding and used as an army.
After the Tianhan Kingdom stabilized the territory it occupied, the war between the two sides was also imminent.
