After March, Xiangcheng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Report to the commander, there is a large group of men and horses marching towards our city in the west of the city, and it is getting closer and closer to our city. Visually it's going to work against us. ”
In the government hall of Xiangcheng, gathered Xiangcheng officials and generals, an hour ago, there were soldiers to report, the west of the city found a large army marching towards Xiangcheng, it seems that the people who came are not good, it seems to be unfavorable to Xiangcheng.
At this time, the city lord of Xiangcheng was sitting at the conference table in the government hall, his eyes scanning the staff under him, Xiangcheng had never experienced such a large army pressure.
Sitting in the conference room, you can already hear the sound of neat footsteps coming from outside the city, which shakes the ground and makes people shudder.
From the sound of neat footsteps, it can be heard that this is a well-trained and very powerful army, and I am afraid that Xiangcheng will be more auspicious today.
"Do you know who is coming now?" The city lord asked the commander-in-chief of the city defense army majestically.
The commander-in-chief was sweating like rain at this time, his body trembled slightly, and he replied tremblingly, "City Lord, according to our observation, the invading army is under the banner of Loucheng. ”
"Loucheng? How so? Have we all handed in this year's offerings on time? Why did they come to invade my city? When the city lord heard this, he couldn't help but feel depressed, if it was Loucheng, this Xiangcheng would not be able to be saved.
"How many horses does the other side have?" The city lord asked with a hint of luck.
"As far as I've observed, there are five or six hundred thousand, to say the least." The commander replied with sincere fear. He initially estimated that the other party should have about 300,000 people, and deliberately exaggerated his words, so that the city lord could agree to surrender and save himself from the suffering of fish and flesh.
"So much? How many people are there in our army? "As the lord of a city, he doesn't even know his own military strength, and he deserves to be unlucky.
"Back to the city lord, my city defense forces are ...... total Total...... No more than 100,000. "In this matter, the commander's eldest brother didn't talk nonsense, the total number of city guards in Xiangcheng did not exceed 100,000.
"What about the other troops?" The city lord is a little nervous, less than 100,000, as the saying goes, know yourself and know your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and now in this situation, heh, you have to be led by a dog.
"Report to the city lord, my special operations brigade, 10 soldiers." A middle-aged man with a dark face stood up and replied, looking at all the officials in this Xiangcheng, only this person seemed to have some skills. His eyes are like torches, and he looks very shrewd, and his body is strong and powerful.
"Ten people? Are you teasing me? How is your special operations brigade managed? Why are there only so few people? What is the establishment? The city lord trembled a little angrily.
"My lord, the total strength of our special operations brigade is 7,000 people, and at its peak, the number of soldiers in our brigade reached 4,321. Later, in order to save expenses, you dismissed all the members of the special operations brigade, leaving only ten people to escort you. The brigade commander had a little complaint in his words, a special operations brigade with good combat strength, he was a city lord who was called a dog, and he said that he would be dismissed. Now it's a blood mold, do you know it's wrong? Should! Bah!
"What about them? Now is the time to use the army, and you can summon them back to defend their homeland. "The city lord suddenly found that he was quite shrewd at this time, these soldiers must still be in Xiangcheng, and now they are recruited, they can also fight for Xiangcheng, and they are too clever to do this at the beginning, that is, they don't need to raise them, at the critical moment, they still have to fight for themselves.
The brigade commander secretly cursed in his heart, "You stinky old guy, when you dismissed us, all the soldiers of our brigade knelt down and begged you, you are good, resolute-willed, and merciless." Now I want to recruit back, you don't know how to write the face characters, right? Aren't you the old immortal of the Xinhuoyun Legion at the beginning, he told you to disband the army and buy more fighting slaves, and you will really be dismissed, you are looking for him, you are going to let your fighting slaves come to protect the acropolis. ”
There were all kinds of unhappiness in his heart, but the brigade commander's face showed embarrassment, and he said very flatteringly, "The city lord is wise, it's just that after all these years, these soldiers ...... In order to make a living, many have joined the mercenary legion, and some have even gone to the Huoyun Legion, and now they want to gather I'm afraid ......"
"I'm afraid of what?" The city lord is a little impatient, when is it, and he is still selling off.
"I'm afraid, I won't be able to come back." The brigade commander bowed his head and replied.
The brigade commander scolded the city lord again in his heart, "You old bastard, you can't even fucking hear this, and you are still the city lord, why am I so unlucky to follow you." , Shet, garbage. ”
"Damn, useless things, your own soldiers, you can't bring them back. Are there any other troops? The city lord glanced at the brigade commander with disdain. Asked the others instead.
"Castle Lord, gone"
"City Lord, I still have dozens of security guards in my house, I can make up for it."
"City Lord, I also have a few dogs at home, the breed is good, and they can be used as military dogs."
"City Lord, my family has a self-defense force of several hundred people."
"City Lord, why don't we surrender......"
"Pull this person out for me, damn it, surrender, surrender Lao Tzu will be reduced to a slave. You rice buckets, useless things, usually raise you, but at the critical moment, none of them are useful. The lord of the city was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.
The monarch of this hereditary system is not good, if it is passed on to an idiot one day, the century-old foundation will be ruined.
According to the general law of modern warfare, as long as the officials in the city open the city and surrender, they will be put to good use and still maintain their noble status, but the city lord will be reduced to slavery, and the officials who are usually oppressed can beat and scold the city lord's family to get angry. Often, before the city lords had time to experience what it was like to be a slave, they were beaten to death at this stage.
The formation of this law was proposed by a mysterious military advisor in Qingshan City more than 30 years ago, and with this method, the soldiers of Qingshan City regained the small city next to it without blood. This battle was widely spread, and many large cities followed suit, and slowly the rules of war were formed, and the generals could keep their glory and wealth as long as they abandoned the city and surrendered.
War is also to pay attention to integrity, as a big city, can often guarantee the status of surrender nobles, then, when this big city attacks other small cities, naturally there are many people willing to surrender, after all, it is more fun to be a nobleman in a big city.
Therefore, of course, the city lord of Xiangcheng does not want the word surrender to be mentioned, as soon as he surrenders, he will be finished, his whole family will be finished, how can this kind of thing happen? He must resist, even if all the people in this room are dead, he will resist to the end.
Everyone was silent, and this silence made the city lord panic in his heart, "What are they thinking?" You can't betray me, right? Bastard who is greedy for life and afraid of death, Lao Tzu treats you not lightly on weekdays. ”
The city lord pretended to be calm and said, "Everyone, I see that you have been thinking for a long time, but what is a good strategy for retreating from the enemy?" ”
"Uh...... That one...... We will resist to the end. ”
"Resist to the end."
"Resist to the end."
"Resist to the end."
What do they think in their hearts?
The meeting ended hastily, and everyone gathered their men and horses to prepare for battle.
The city guards who usually use to collect taxes are fully armed, standing on the city wall trembling all over, looking at the black and dense enemy in the distance, their hearts are about to break.
The lord of the city personally put on the battle to boost morale: "Brothers, my dear brothers, today is the time to test you, the compatriots of Xiangcheng are waiting for the news of your triumph. Your family, they don't want to be slaves, they shouldn't be slaves, soldiers, brothers, show your courage, fight, let these enemies who come to see me, I am Xiangcheng, do not be bullied. ”
After listening to the words of the city lord, the soldiers trembled even more, isn't this a drill? Is this really going to be fatal? Usually they have played with their own lives.
At this time, the enemy troops outside the city had already assembled, neatly lined up in a phalanx, holding high the banner of Loucheng. All the soldiers were dressed in the camouflage uniforms of the pre-war army, body armor, helmets and masks, and their whole body was covered without showing any skin.
The first two rows of the phalanx are the terrifying steel soldiers of Loucheng, these steel soldiers, dressed in the uniforms of the alien law enforcement team a hundred years ago. This suit is all made of alien metal, invulnerable, impenetrable to fire, ordinary walls, they can directly penetrate it, in the war, it is an invincible existence, described as a single small tank.
In this large city and small city with a radius of hundreds of miles, everyone knows this invincible army, and the city can stand tall in this area, and it is a blessing, and this steel army is indispensable.
Seeing this formation under the city wall, the city lord of Xiangcheng was frozen in his heart, it was really a building city, an indestructible building city, how could they come to attack Xiangcheng? Could it be that a big city like Qingshan City was also beaten down by them? The city lord shouted helplessly in his heart: "My life is over." ”
When the city lord felt sorry for himself and lamented his fate, a small soldier stepped forward to report: "Report ~ Report to the city lord, there is an army in the east of the city approaching our city." ”
"Chengdong? There are also enemies in the east of the city? Who? Could it be that Yacheng is also here? It's impossible, Yacheng has always kept a low profile and never participated in wars. What about the Fire Cloud Legion? The enemy came from the east, and they didn't resist? Could it be that the Fire Cloud Legion is also finished? "The city lord has a lot of doubts.
"City Lord, the Fire Cloud Legion has changed its name to the Lihuo Legion." A kind reminder from the informed creep.
"Get out!" The lord of the castle was furious.
"Report ~ City Lord, the troops in the east of the city claim to be from the Lihuo Legion, saying that they learned that Loucheng is attacking and wants to help us defend the city, and now they are clamoring to see you and ...... with you ...... with you Talk to you about the price of defending the city. Just as the city lord was angry, another soldier ran to report.
"They're here to help us defend the city? Hahaha, a good thing, a good thing, tell them that they can promise as much as they want, as long as they can help me defend this city, Xiangcheng can divide half of them. "It's like grasping at a life-saving straw, and the city lord's face is about to bloom with joy.
This fire cloud, ah no, the fighting power of the Glass Fire Legion is not to be underestimated, they can always come up with some strange weapons, which is surprising. For more than a hundred years, this legion has stood strong, and there have been many large mercenary groups that tried to annex them, but they were defeated miserably. There was even a time when five large mercenary groups jointly attacked them, but they all suffered a big loss at their hands, which shows the strength of this Lihuo legion.
Since then, the Lihuo Legion has been known as the strongest corps, but later they did not do their job, let the mercenaries not do it, and freed up slaves.
This time, with the help of the Glass Fire Legion, Xiangcheng may still have a glimmer of life.
The city lord is very happy, in this time of crisis, the Glass Fire Legion came to visit, it is really lucky.
So, can the Lihuo Legion help Xiangcheng and defeat Loucheng?
The Lihuo Legion, which said that it was going to attack Xiangcheng, why did it help Xiangcheng again? What happened in between? Could it be that the bad thing I did on the way to Bluewater City, the East Window Incident? The East Window incident happened, and it doesn't matter about the building? Did they know the plan of the Immortal?
Loucheng, a big city that dominates one side, why did it appear here to attack Xiangcheng?
If you're as smart as you, you've already guessed the outcome.
Yes, that's right, it all started three months ago......
