Chapter 520: Take it lightly
readx;?
The Feng army led by Shang Guanxiu naturally did not sit idly by, and at the same time as the Ningnan army was transferred on a large scale, the Feng army suddenly marched westward, using Dangxiong County as a springboard and advancing into Chidu County. The change of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Fengjun once again exceeded Ningnan's expectations.
According to the offensive route of the Feng Army, the Ningnan Imperial Court speculated that the ultimate goal of the Feng Army was Tianjing, and now that the Feng Army suddenly moved westward, it can be said that a series of deployments formulated by the Ningnan Imperial Court were all disrupted.
What made the Ningnan court even more alarmed was that in Chidu County, not only did a large amount of gold and silver be hoarded, but it was also the terrible Thirteenth Army stationed in Chidu County. This is not a legion that will make the enemy feel terrible, but a legion that will panic its own people.
The Wind Army was marching extremely fast, and when the Ningnan Imperial Court realized that the Wind Army's westward advance was not to avoid the encirclement of its own army, but to attack Amy City in Chidu County, it was too late for them to transport away the gold and silver hoarded in Amy City.
The Ningnan Imperial Court sent a message to the Thirteenth Legion, asking the Thirteenth Legion to defend Amy City for only three days. It's just that the transmission of the Ningnan Imperial Court has not yet reached the hands of the 13th Army, and the commander of the 13th Army has already given the order to take the initiative to meet the Feng Army.
The commander of the regiment was named Chastan, a mixed-race Ningnan native, his father was a pure Ningnan native, and his mother was of a different race, and he was named Stan after his father's surname.
He ordered to take the initiative to attack, of course, there is also his reason, the wind army is a long journey, and from Dangxiong County into Chidu County, to Amy City, in the middle of the desert area is not small, the wind army is obviously forced into Chidu County by the central army, and it must not be familiar with the terrain here, just out of the desert, not to mention how many people died of thirst and starvation, and must be exhausted up and down. Don't give the Wind Army a chance to breathe, and take advantage of this time to attack, it will inevitably cause heavy damage to the Wind Army. >
He thought very well in his heart, but who knew that the arrival of the wind army was precisely planned, and he entered Chidu County to fight Amy City, which he was stationing.
It is worth mentioning that before the battle of the Thirteenth Legion, the soldiers in the barracks took off their armor, looked around for ink, and then smeared the ink on the back of the armor.
By the time Chastain gave the order to assemble, the 100,000-strong reorganized regiment had actually reached less than 80,000, and at least more than 20,000 soldiers had taken sick leave.
Chastain did not delve into the soldiers who were on leave, so he took the 13th Army, which was less than 80,000 men, out of the city to meet them.
The two armies faced off against each other outside the city of Amy, each setting up a battle formation, making a decisive battle.
The wind army was not polite at all, the artillery was firing, the infantry was advancing, and the cavalry was interspersed on the left and right, protecting the two wings.
When the firecrackers on the side of the Wind Army began to shoot, causing the 13th Army to suffer casualties, and then looked at the Ningnan Army on the opposite side, as if the commander had given an order to retreat, the rear team immediately changed to the front team, and the whole army retreated. What made the Feng Army even more stunned was that the Thirteenth Army turned around and ran, and when he looked at it, the black pressure in front of him, the original yellow armor, all turned black, and the color of his own armor was exactly the same, and it was not clear whether it was the Ning Nan Army or the Feng Army's own people.
This battle, before the soldiers on both sides had time to make close contact, it had already ended early. What is even more pleasing is that as a result of this battle, there were almost zero casualties on both sides, and only the 13th Army was killed and wounded by the firearms.
The thirteenth legion entered from the east city of Amy City, and did not stop for a moment, but passed directly through the city, and ran away from the west city, and the soldiers who had been left in the barracks were all sick at this time, and ran out of the city with the main army.
Until the Feng army entered Amy City without blood, the soldiers felt that the battle was confused, inexplicable, and they didn't understand why the Ningnan army, whose morale was so strong and dared to take the initiative to go out of the city to face the battle, suddenly retreated (it was actually a rout, but it was a rout before the battle, and it looked like a retreat).
The defeat of this battle, for the thirteenth army, is just another defeat in the military history of the defeat, Chastain also felt quite relieved, although it was defeated, but the wind army is so powerful, their own side did not pay too many casualties, it is good.
In the thirteenth legion, down to the small soldiers, up to the generals on the record, many of them are relatives of the powerful people in the DPRK to gild, Chastain can not afford to offend anyone, as long as there are no dead and no casualties, and this young master army is raised fat and fat, he will complete the task, as for the defeated and undefeated, it doesn't matter.
After the Feng army took Amy City lightly, Shangguan Xiu immediately ordered not to pursue the fleeing Ningnan army, not to rob the people's money, and not to kill the people in the city.
In the middle of Amy City, there is still the royal palace of the former Avon Kingdom, a majestic castle-type palace.
Now the palace has been converted into a county warden's house. Before Dylan, the county guard of Chidu County, could escape, the Wind Army came in.
When Shangguan Xiu came to the gate of the palace surrounded by a group of cadres, the county officials led by Dylan all knelt on the ground one by one, not daring to breathe or raise their heads.
The ferocity of the wind army, they have heard of it for a long time, they used to often gloat, unlucky is other counties, it has nothing to do with their own side, now, bad luck has finally fallen on their heads, these officials, frightened to the soul, covered with cold sweat.
Shangguan Xiu glanced down, snorted, and asked, "Excuse me, where is Lord County Shou?"
The officials who were originally on the ground raised their heads in unison, and their eyes were focused on a middle-aged fat man in the corner, and they couldn't dodge.
The middle-aged fat man put his head on the ground, squinted his eyes to the side, and saw that his subordinates were all looking at him, and he scolded the eighteen generations of his subordinates in his heart.
Knowing that he would definitely not be able to hide it, he stiffened his head, raised his head tremblingly, and grinned at Shangguan Xiu, but his smile was more ugly than crying, and he stammered: "Will ...... General, under ...... The next official is the county guard of Chidu County, Di ...... Dylan ......"
"Hmm. Lord Dylan, get up. Shangguan Xiu nodded.
"Thank you...... General Xie, I don't know the general's name?" Dylan saw that Shangguan Xiu was not very old, handsome, and quite kind, and the fear in his heart was reduced a little, and his round body stood up from the ground with great difficulty.
Shangguan Xiu's eyes wandered, looked him up and down, and said, "I'm Shangguan Xiu." ”
Dylan's legs, which had just straightened, bent forward, and knelt back to the ground with a pop, kowtowed forward again and again, crying, "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives......"
The other officials also bowed forward and said in unison, "Your Excellency, spare your life!"
Shangguan Xiu didn't come to listen to them shouting for mercy, he said patiently: "Lord Dylan, please get up, and all the adults should also get up and speak." Seeing that everyone was unmoved, they still kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy. Shangguan Xiu said in a deep voice: "Within three numbers, if anyone can't get up, I want someone's head, three!"
In a word, all the officials jumped up from the ground one after another like springs, holding their shoulders one by one, shrinking their heads, and looking at Shangguan Xiu cautiously. Shangguan Xiu glanced at everyone, his gaze fell back to Dylan, and asked, "Lord Dylan." ”
"Next...... Xia Guan is here. ”
"Where is the treasury in the city?"
"In ...... In the county warden's house. If you want to check it out, the lower official is willing to lead the way. Dylan folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen, bent over, and smiled all over his face, so flattering.
"Lord Dylan, please lead the way. ”
"Your Excellency, please. "Lord Dylan, please. ”
Listening to the humility of the two of them, where there is a little bit of enemy country fighting, Shangguan Xiu is not like an occupying army, more like he came to visit, and Dylan seems to be in charge of entertaining.
In Ningnan, the farther west, the more the alien race is the majority, in Amy City, the pure Ningnan people are probably not even ten percent, basically they are aliens, they have no hatred for the wind people, and there is no entanglement of interests, the attitude towards the wind people is just simple fear and strangeness.
Led by Dylan, Shangguan Xiu and a group of subordinates walked into the palace. From the outside, the palace is magnificent, and when you enter it, the inside is decorated with gold, and even the outside of the stone pillars is inlaid with gold leaf. Guangfang deliberately walked to a stone pillar, cut a piece of gold leaf from them with a saber, looked at it carefully, and said in surprise: "Brother Xiu, it's real gold!"
Seeing this, Dylan hurriedly introduced: "It is said that in order to decorate this palace, the king of Evon used a total of tens of thousands of taels of gold, and these pillars are wrapped in gold leaf, and there are a lot of pure gold products in them. ”
Guangfang smiled and said, "We're not here to visit. ”
"Of course, it's okay to take it away. Dylan bowed down and smiled cheekily.
"Haha!" Guangfang couldn't help it, and laughed on his back. Dylan also smirked at him, his brazenness was embarrassing.
In the underground of the palace, Shangguan Xiu and the others finally saw the second treasury of Ningnan in Meng Qiuchen's mouth. There are two silver vaults here, one for gold and the other for silver, which is a staggering amount of money.
Walking into it, all that catches your eye are mountains of gold and silver built up of gold and silver bricks. These mountains of gold and silver, in the vault and silver vault, row by row, occupy most of the space, and the specific number of thousands of taels of gold and how many tens of thousands of taels of silver cannot be counted by visual inspection.
According to the account books provided by Dylan, it shows that the total amount of gold in the treasury is more than 8 million taels, and the total amount of silver in the treasury is 30,000 taels.
The second treasury outside of Tianjing, with such a huge gold and silver reserves, shows that Ningnan's national strength is far greater than that of the Wind Country.
Shangguan Xiu was also secretly surprised in his heart after reading the account book, fortunately, he listened to Meng Qiuchen's opinion and changed the established tactics, otherwise, let the Ningnan Imperial Court put all the huge gold and silver reserves into the national war, and the Wind Country would not be able to win this battle at all, that is, it would be consumed, and Ningnan would also consume the Wind Country to death.
