Episode 38 Guerrilla Warfare
"The situation is already obvious, it is impossible for the Qin army to have any large-scale attack plans for Changshan City in the near future, so it is a complete waste of troops for us to continue to maintain the deployment of so many troops here, and it is also a missed opportunity. Now, it's time for us to take the initiative!"
As soon as Linda returned to the military base, he immediately issued a new directive. Because of the shift in the direction of the Qin army's attack, the Flying Dragon Legion, which was the main force of the Blue Star Army, no longer continued to stay at the Changshan base, and the remaining tens of thousands of troops were led by Kui Feng to form the Seventh Army of the Blue Star Army. However, Lin Da only asked Kuifeng to leave 50,000 people at the Changshan base to continue to contain the Qin army, and the other 30,000 people were broken into pieces and scattered into the Qin army occupied by Yan Zhao and even Wei to carry out guerrilla warfare.
Of course, the transfer of these troops did not take place overnight, but in a planned manner in secrecy. In order to cover up the movement of the army, Linda also organized the army to carry out various military exercises from time to time, and sent several troops to run dozens of kilometers away at once, but only one unit came back, and soon the 30,000 people were secretly dispatched.
And during this time, the Qin army also pretended to attack the Blue Star Army military base several times, but each time the number of people invested was not large, as soon as the Blue Star Army's shells fell on their protective shields, they immediately retreated, for fear of a real battle with the Blue Star Army.
In this way, more than a month has passed, and after such a long time of preparation, the Blue Star Country has gradually become ready for new battles.
In early June of the 28th year of the Blue Star Age, the Tanzan Railway was finally successfully opened to traffic, the first transnational railway in the history of the Blue Star Country, and finally closely united the Blue Star Country and the Yan Kingdom, so that all kinds of materials from the Blue Star country could be continuously transported to the front line of the anti-Qin resistance.
In July of the 28th year of the Blue Star Age, the first Yanzhao Mortal Coalition Corps recruited by the Blue Star Army was officially established, and this corps of 5,000 people was soon deployed to a small city more than 100 miles away from Changshan City after a short period of training, responsible for guarding the safety of the city. In addition, dozens of larger Combined Legions are being trained and drafted, and the Blue Star Army expects that the total number of the entire Combined Army can reach a staggering 1 million men.
At the same time, base points behind enemy lines in various parts of Yanzhao also began to be gradually established. A large number of experienced officers sent from the Blue Star Kingdom dressed up in disguise, constantly wandered around the Yan and Zhao occupied by the Qin army, and went deep into the cultivators and mortals at the bottom of Yan Zhao, instilling in them the idea that mortals should strive for equality and independence, and trying to convince the people that only by relying on the strength of the Blue Star Country could they defeat the Qin army and strive for peace.
In order to better win the support of the people, the Blue Star Kingdom even put forward the political proposition of the peaceful reunification of Dongyanzhou, the purpose of which is to win the support of the people of other countries, unite to expel the invaders, and establish a peaceful and unified Dongyanzhou where everyone is equal. The combat units behind enemy lines in various localities spread these ideas deeply among the people, and immediately aroused great enthusiasm among the people.
When did the mortals of Yan and Zhao who had been under the oppression of cultivators for a long time accept these novel ideas? In particular, the idea that mortals should be independent and have the same status as cultivators advocated by the Blue Star Kingdom blew into the hearts of the mortals of Yan and Zhao like a gust of spring breeze, breaking the shackles of traditional ignorance that had been imprisoned on these people for thousands of years, and the people woke up one after another and gave the warmest support to the ideas of the Blue Star Kingdom.
Soon, with the support of the local people, the combat units behind the enemy lines of the Blue Star Country took root and established one base after another. They even seized on the weakness of the Qin army's insufficient strength and only controlled important cities and mineral areas, and specialized in developing where the Qin army's strength was weak. In just a few months, the base behind enemy lines created by the Blue Star Kingdom occupied most of Yan Zhao's territory.
These base areas of the Blue Star Country are completely managed in accordance with the domestic governance methods of the Blue Star Country. First of all, the officers of the Blue Star Kingdom abolished the privileges of the local Yanzhao nobles and landlords, and reasonably divided the land to mortals, and at the same time, they canceled a large number of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in one go, exempting mortals from heavy burdens. At the same time, the base areas have also invested heavily in medical care, sanitation and education for the people. The most important thing is that the combat troops behind the enemy lines of the Blue Star Country dared to organize troops to fight against the Qin army, and they saved many mortals who were forcibly taken away from the hands of the Qin army, dealt a severe blow to the aggressive momentum of the Qin army, and greatly reduced the damage of the war to the people of Yan and Zhao.
These practices of the Blue Star Country naturally made the people of Yanzhao grateful to Dade and won the great support of the people of Yanzhao, and many people even regarded themselves as the people of the Blue Star Country and unconditionally supported any action of the Blue Star Country.
Of course, the existence of these base areas greatly threatened the Qin army's control over the occupied areas, and was regarded by the Qin army as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, and they were eager to be uprooted. And the local Xiuzhen nobles and mortal nobles in the Yanzhao region, who had surrendered to the Qin army, suffered heavy losses because the base area broke their privileges, and they also hated the existence of the base area very much. The two hit it off, and soon formed an alliance to deal with the base areas together.
...
On a hidden path more than two hundred miles east of the capital of Zhao State, a large group of ragged, frightened, and tired mortals were being detained by more than 100 Qin soldiers, walking towards a Qin army stronghold dozens of miles away. This group of mortals was obviously captured by the Qin army from all over the country, and I don't know how much they suffered, and many of them died under the random ravages of the Qin soldiers, and the number of people was reduced from more than 10,000 at the beginning to only seven or eight thousand along the way.
But even so, in the face of the powerful Qin army Xiuzhen soldiers, the unarmed people had no ability to resist, and could only be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, waiting for an unknown tragic fate.
"Hurry up, you pigs and sheep! If you can't reach the assembly point before dark, we will kill another 500 random people!" A Qin army led by a regiment of Qin troops flew above the crowd, throwing a whip at the crowd below from time to time, savagely driving the people forward.
Around the crowd, there is a Qin soldier guard every more than 100 meters, from time to time some people who walk slowly are caught by the grumpy Qin soldiers and killed directly, some lewd Qin soldiers see the beautiful women in the crowd, and even directly catch them and ravage them on the side of the road. The poor mortals could only watch the atrocities of the Qin soldiers, but they were powerless to stop them.
A baby's wail came from the crowd, and it turned out that the Qin soldier commander in the air was constantly whipping the crowd, waking up a baby sleeping in his mother's arms.
"It's noisy!" When the commander of the Qin soldiers heard this, he was immediately furious, and with a flick of the long whip, he was about to chop the baby below to death.
"Don't!" the mother closed her eyes in despair as she lifted the baby behind her, bravely standing in front of the flaming whip.
Seeing that the long whip was about to split the brave mother in half, at this moment, a low loud sound sounded from a distance, and then, as if he had been hit by something, the Qin soldier commander in the air seemed to have been hit by something, his body shook violently, and a pillar of blood with internal organs and flesh suddenly erupted from his chest, revealing a huge blood hole in his chest. Amid the exclamations of the other Qin soldiers and the crowd below, the commander fell weakly like a kite that had dropped its strings.
"Not good!"
"There are enemies!"
Seeing this, the other Qin soldiers immediately panicked, and rushed to the place where the Qin soldier commander fell, and sacrificed the magic weapon in his hand, looking around in horror, and his spiritual sense continued to sweep around.
At this moment, more than a dozen dull voices sounded, and more than a dozen Qin soldiers floating in the air responded to the sound. This surprise attack immediately caused the Qin soldiers to be in chaos.
"One or two detachments, kill them! Lure the Qin soldiers out of the ranks, and the third and fourth detachments are ready to ambush! The fifth detachment is ready to pursue!"
In the grass in the distance, a Blue Star Army commander calmly ordered, beside him, more than a dozen soldiers armed with heavy anti-weapon guns were aiming at the Qin soldiers in the distance, and the weapons in their hands could be activated at any time.
As soon as the commander gave the order, more than two hundred soldiers in camouflage uniforms came out of the extremely concealed grass and rushed quickly towards the Qin soldiers in the distance. However, the way these soldiers advanced was not like the Qin soldiers who could step on the magic plate, and many of them couldn't even perform simple levitation techniques, and most of them released some of the simplest light body techniques and jumping techniques to charge, and the speed was only twice as fast as that of ordinary people. It can be seen that this group of charging soldiers is just a Xiuzhen soldier who has just started.
"Is there any mistake that a group of people who have just started refining qi dare to attack us?"
"Those are the guerrillas organized by Yan Zhao, right? I heard that they are all mortal armed, but I didn't expect to encounter them. ”
"Then what are we afraid of, it's just two hundred mortals, let's go up together and kill them all!"
"Kill! Avenge Commander Yin!"
More than 100 Qin soldiers immediately flew out of the crowd in formation and rushed towards the approaching guerrilla fighters not far away. At this moment, hundreds of gunshots rang out, and as soon as the Qin soldiers took to the air, the soldiers of the two guerrilla detachments lying in ambush on one side opened fire.
"Bastards, they have an ambush!" shouted the Qin soldiers, who were disrupted by the bullets, and to their surprise, the oncoming guerrilla soldiers suddenly threw dozens of grenades at them, and under the operation of several of them who seemed to be a little cultivated, they shot at the Qin soldiers at a rapid speed, and exploded at close range.
Immediately afterwards, the guerrilla soldiers pulled out all kinds of guns like a trick and fired fiercely at the Qin soldiers. For a while, the sound of guns and explosions resounded in the sky, and the Qin soldiers suddenly became chaotic, and their hands holding the magic weapon began to tremble gradually, and their eyes showed a look of fear.
After more than ten minutes of fighting, this Blue Star Army guerrilla force completely annihilated the Qin soldiers at a very small cost and eliminated the thousands of people of Zhao State.
"Fellow villagers, we are the Blue Star guerrillas, the Qin soldiers have been wiped out by us, you are safe for the time being!" the guerrilla leader flew into the air, stepped on the flying magic plate, and shouted at the people.
"Hooray!"
"Thank you to the benefactor of the Blue Star Country!"
"Long live the guerrillas! Long live the benefactors!"
...
The people of Zhao State who were solved were immediately excited, and they kowtowed to the guerrilla leaders in the air and bowed, no one expected that they would be able to escape death from the hands of the Qin army.
"Everyone quickly disperse and return to their respective places! There is really no way out, so go all the way to the east, to a place where there are no Qin soldiers, to the Blue Star Country! Everyone remember, the Blue Star Country will always protect the mortals of the world!"
The commander of the guerrillas shouted, showed the crowd several ways to escape, and then hurried away. Soon, the thousands of people also dispersed and disappeared from their places, and in less than an hour, only a mess of ground was left here, and the fragments of the corpses of more than a hundred Qin soldiers that had been dismembered by the angry crowd.
