Chapter 147: Soldiers Descend on the City
Early in the morning, the sky is slightly bright, Linjiang County, South City Gate.
Nie Zheng stood on top of the city tower and looked towards the city with a cold face.
At this time, outside the South City Gate, Niu Meng, Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, Xue Changsheng and other leaders led four thousand dragon and tiger elites, with their waists straight, standing on the wide field energetically, waiting for the order of the Nie League Lord.
Since receiving the order to attack Yangzhou City last night, these four thousand dragon and tiger elites who were selected were so excited that they didn't sleep all night.
After the alliance of the dragon and tiger mountains, the favorite thing that these dragon and tiger heroes like to do now is to follow the leader of the Nie League to attack the city and pull out the village, and fight those officers and soldiers who are foreigners, wolves and rats, and farts and urine.
It's a very exciting and enjoyable life.
Especially when they exterminated the Dayue people and captured Linjiang County, they saw the people in the city and loved them so much, and these dragon and tiger heroes had a great sense of accomplishment in their hearts.
In the past, when they were mountain bandits in Longhu Mountain, they robbed houses everywhere, basically everywhere they went, they all made the local people feel panic and hatred, where would they be so popular in Linjiang County.
For the first time in their lives, they were proud of their identity as bandits.
At the same time, after this southern expedition and repeated battles with those Dayue foreigners, all of a sudden, these Longhu Mountain bandits seemed to have found a new direction.
The big bandits, protect the family and the people!
This sentence was the conclusion of the "Army Building Conference" held by the leader of the Nie League outside Beicheng a few days ago.
At that time, when everyone heard this sentence, their hearts were surging and they were greatly encouraged.
Although most of these people were illiterate, when the leader of the Nie League said the words "The great bandit, protect the family and defend the people" with emotion, everyone present felt the sky-high arrogance contained in it.
At the army building conference, the leader of the Nie League told everyone that since they chose to travel far to Annam, they should take it as their home, and now there are a gang of ruthless and cruel Dayue foreigners who have invaded everyone's "home", so everyone should do their best to defend, to conquest, and to expel them.
Expel the foreign invaders and defend Annam!
It's like when they were in Longhu Mountain that day, no matter whether the enemy was officers and soldiers or other forces, as long as they dared to invade the Longhu Mountain, everyone would work together to resist foreign enemies.
Now in Annan County, it's the same. It's just that the enemy has been replaced by those Da Yue Wai Gangs.
Until this moment, everyone still clearly remembers the warning given to everyone by the leader of the Nie League on the day of the founding of the army; From today on, all of us are no longer bandits, but armies! Since we are the army, we must no longer do the green forest work of robbing houses and houses, otherwise, it will be an insult to the military prestige, so why should millions of people in this Annan County respect us? Since it is an army, we have to take a resounding name: Dragon and Tiger Army!
Dragon Tiger Army!
From now on, they are all part of the Dragon Tiger Legion.
The leader of the Nie League also said that in three years at most, the three words "Dragon and Tiger Army" will definitely make the three words "Dragon and Tiger Army" famous all over the world and powerful the world.
At this time, the four thousand dragon and tiger troops, Qi Qi set their eyes on the city, and waited for the order of the Nie Alliance Lord.
Nie Zheng slowly walked to the head of the city, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and suddenly, he waved his hand violently and shouted: "Let's go!" ”
"Yes, Alliance Leader!"
In the tsunami-like sound of everyone's roar, the four thousand dragon and tiger army took the steps of shaking the world, holding various arms and weapons, and rushed straight to the direction of Yangzhou City.
Seeing this scene, a group of dragon and tiger elites who were responsible for staying in Linjiang County were envious, but there was no way, when the lottery was drawn last night, they were not selected, and for this reason, they were depressed for a long time.
Looking at Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie and others leading the team to gradually move away, Jia Xiufang, Su Dongshan and more than a dozen dragon and tiger elites, supporting Nie Zheng's mount, slowly walked out of the city gate.
At this time, Nie Zheng sat on the horse, glanced deeply at Su Dongshan and Jia Xiufang, and said with a solemn expression: "Dongshan, Xiufang, this Linjiang County, I will hand it over to the two of you, I hope you don't let me down." ”
Su and Jia nodded firmly, and said, "Don't worry, alliance leader." My subordinates wish you success and invincibility! ”
Nie Zheng smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said, "You guys go back to the city, you don't have to send it again, in a few days, you will wait for our good news." ”
After that, he instructed Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, who were standing under the horse: "Go!" ”
After hearing Nie Zheng's order, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu immediately took the reins and led dozens of warrior masters who personally guarded the safety of the alliance leader, and trotted all the way straight to the team in front of them.
…………
Yangzhou City is located in the southwest of Linjiang County, about more than 200 miles away from Linjiang County.
The journey of more than 200 miles is not too far, nor too close, if the whole process is accelerated, you can reach the outside of Yangzhou City within three days at most.
This attack on Yangzhou City must be a success, and there is no room for loss, otherwise, Nie Zheng's situation will be very passive.
In order to be able to rush to Yangzhou City as quickly as possible, the four thousand dragon and tiger troops led by Nie Zheng this time were all lightly armed.
Except for some necessary rations and siege equipment, he didn't bring any other extra baggage.
At the same time, in order to reduce the burden of the army in the process of traveling, Nie Zheng recovered almost all the heavy weapons and ammunition into the arms shopping street, and only let Jack teleport them out when they were needed.
At present, among the 4,000 troops attacking Yangzhou, only some AK47s, light machine guns, and some rocket launchers are carried with the army.
These arms and weapons were used to deal with unexpected situations encountered during the march.
This time, Nie Zheng led 4,000 dragon and tiger troops to attack Yangzhou, and in Linjiang County, 1,000 men and horses were left to garrison.
A thousand people should be enough for the small county town of Linjiang.
Besides, on the four gates of Linjiang County, five Makqin heavy machine guns and ten Type 89 grenadiers were deployed, and as for those light machine guns, assault rifles, and rocket launchers, they were also equipped with a little.
The defensive firepower of this scale, used in the city defense of Linjiang County, is simply impregnable.
Unless the enemy who came to attack was a rune army with tens of thousands of people, it would be difficult for an ordinary team to break through the firepower blockade line on the Linjiang city defense.
Nie Zheng prepared fifty Makqin heavy machine guns, two hundred and fifty grenadiers, and RPG rocket launchers for this attack on Yangzhou City, and also carried eighty of them, as for the other miscellaneous arms and weapons, Nie Zheng didn't bother to count them.
Anyway, a team of 4,000 people, equipped with so many arms and weapons, should be able to attack an ancient state city with ease.
Besides, he still has ten Krupp 75mm mountain guns in the arms pedestrian street.
These ten mountain cannons are Nie Zheng's secret weapons for attacking Yangzhou City.
In order to be prepared, Nie Zheng had already entered a munitions commercial street last night, and used the remaining 26.73 million yuan in his personal account to pay 26 million casualty insurance to Jack in advance, like Jack booked 26 clone soldiers.
As long as the troops are outside the city of Linyangzhou, in the event of a big battle, he needs to take out the ten mountain cannons to help, and he can ask Jack to send twenty-six cloned mercenaries out at any time.
In the past few days, Chen Shou and the others, who went to the vicinity of Yangzhou City to spy on the news, would transmit back all the information they had investigated, no matter how big or small, every day.
Most of these situations are about some changes and trends in Yangzhou's city defense, and basically they can't detect it at all.
Because, in the past few days, there have been more and more patrol teams arranged by the Dayue people outside Yangzhou City, and Chen Shou and his gang of intelligence investigators can only carefully hide and retreat, and then continue to hide and retreat, and they dare not easily approach within five miles of Yangzhou City.
Nowadays, during the day, they usually hide in a secluded and dark corner, using binoculars to observe the situation near Yangzhou City.
However, Chen Shou has discovered an abnormal scene in the past few days.
According to the secret letter sent back by Chen Shou, he told Nie Zheng that in the past few days, there seems to be a group of strange people in green robes in Yangzhou City, and those strange people in green robes will drive dozens of strange carriages to appear outside Yangzhou City before noon every day.
Dozens of green-robed weirdos, who didn't know what their purpose was, took out dark red cages from those weird carriages, walked and stopped in the fields outside the entire Yangzhou City, and then put the dark red cages on the ground and ignored them, behaving very strangely.
Since Chen Shou didn't dare to get too close during the day, they couldn't see clearly what those dark red cages were used for.
After learning this mysterious news, Nie Zheng's heart was also very strange.
Regarding the green-robed weirdos that Chen Shou said, Nie Zheng secretly felt that something was wrong.
Later, he thought about it carefully, and felt that those green-robed weirdos were probably making some preparations in advance to activate the protective array outside Yangzhou City, and only in this way could the strange behavior of these green-robed weirdos be explained.
However, no matter what those green-robed weirdos did outside the city, as long as Nie Zheng's army arrived outside Yangzhou City, everything would be clear.
In this way, Nie Zheng led the four thousand dragon and tiger army, and after leaving Linjiang County, he went straight to Yangzhou City to kill.
After two days of rapid marching, finally, in the evening of the third day, Nie Zheng's army of 4,000 dragons and tigers appeared in Happy Valley.
Happy Valley Ridge is located in the southeast of Yangzhou City, about ten miles away from the city.
This is a small hilly landform, as long as the people and horses of Nie Town climb over a small hill in front of them, and after climbing to the top of the slope, they can look at Yangzhou City in front of them.
Because, after Happy Valley, there is a wide and boundless plain below, and at the end of the plain is the "Yangzhou City", which is known as the largest city in Annam.
