Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 79 Lecheng
Lecheng is different from Tsing Yi City, the main army of Tsing Yi City has been almost wiped out before the war, and the war potential of Tsing Yi City is not large.
But Lecheng is different, Lecheng, which has more than two million people, has a strong war potential, as long as he is given enough time, the army of two or three hundred thousand can still be pulled up, and Lecheng, which has developed peacefully for many years, does not know what kind of password is hidden.
It's not that Qin Fei is afraid, but he hopes that his soldiers can reduce some deaths, and he also hopes that the battle can be settled, so that Lecheng will not have time to develop his war potential.
Although the generals should think more about victory, but on the premise of being able to win, then they should consider more on the soldiers, although a general will be successful, but the veterans of a hundred battles on the battlefield are also important assets of generals and countries, and they cannot be easily lost.
Just when the scouts sent by Zhang Liao infiltrated Lecheng to inquire about the news, Lecheng finally knew that Che Qingyun's army had arrived two kilometers outside the city.
"Report to the general, there are currently about 100,000 military horses gathered in Lecheng, the weapons and armor are all good, 50,000 are considered elite soldiers, and the other 50,000 troops are composed of private soldiers from various families in the city, and they are also elite soldiers!"
In the commander's camp, the scout captain knelt on one knee and hugged his fists.
Hearing this, Qin Fei frowned slightly, and said, "Explore again, try to know Lecheng's defense layout today!"
"Yes, my subordinates obey!"
There was a slight hesitation on the scout captain's face, but he still didn't say it, but said in a loud voice.
After the scout captain left, Qin Fei got up and stood with his hands behind his back, walking around the tent, thinking about countermeasures.
Lecheng's 100,000 army, if there is a head-on battle, Qin Fei is not afraid when he arrives, Lecheng has not had a war for a long time, because it is close to the mainland of the human race, the barbarian invasion cannot reach here, so most of these soldiers have not experienced battles, and those family private soldiers, Qin Fei did not take it to heart, the army is a whole, not a combination of a group of martial arts masters, and the army that does not cooperate is better than the rabble at best.
Qin Fei's soldiers are all trained according to the training outline formulated by Ye Qing, although due to the short time, many of the training is not in place, but compared to the standing soldiers in Lecheng, they are already very elite, after several battles, under the bloody battle, these soldiers have already been trained like steel and iron, the degree of cooperation of the army is also very high, the morale is even higher, and the combat power is naturally strong and extraordinary.
Now Qin Fei is only worried about whether Lecheng still has any secret methods hidden, and if the Lecheng army insists on defending the city and does not come out to fight, whether he will fight or not.
On the second day, early in the morning, the war drums were beating, Qin Fei was in high spirits, and led an army of 10,000 to launch a tentative attack on Lecheng.
However, the Lecheng side was also prepared, and under the advantage of numbers, after each side paid hundreds of corpses, they hurriedly ended the tentative attack and Mingjin withdrew his troops.
This round of temptation also allowed Qin Fei to successfully test the combat strength of the defenders of Lecheng, so he was sure that the only thing he needed now was how to lure the defenders out of the city for a decisive battle.
Although the first wave of attacks was in vain, the morale of Qin Fei's army did not decrease, on the contrary, under the stimulation of the casualties of his comrades, all the soldiers showed a look of grief and indignation on their faces, and everyone was gearing up and excited!
In the next few days, Qin Fei would send a large army to attack the city every day, which could not only serve the purpose of actual combat training, but also paralyze the defenders. Although the battle was fierce, the number of casualties was not large, and the attrition in a few days was only 500.
In the dark night, Qin Fei secretly led his army to the city of Lecheng. After several days of paralyzing tactics, the defenders of Lecheng have lost their enthusiasm at the beginning, and their defense has been much lax, almost all of the defenders of Lecheng have already tacitly acquiesced that Qin Fei's 20,000 army could not capture Lecheng, and now they are still attacking non-stop, but they are just unwilling to fail.
The walls of Lecheng are very high, but for masters who have achieved martial arts cultivation, such a height is actually nothing.
Although there are no masters in Qin Fei's army who are too strong in martial arts, there are at least about two thousand advanced masters, and in addition to the necessary people to command the army, at least hundreds of good players can be summoned.
The night breeze was blowing, and now it was almost winter, and the thousand elite cavalry hidden under the wall outside the gate, they were all drawn from Ye Qing's personal guards, and they were only temporarily seconded to Qin Fei's command. They were arranged by Ye Qing to deal with them at close range outside the city gate, and their small number was not easy to find. As soon as you open the door, rush in. The target of Qin Fei's army is a bit large, so the distance is a little far.
Then, under the cover of night, under the leadership of a commander (a handsome master), the Ye soldiers above the rank of 500 climbed the city wall of Lecheng very easily.
On the city wall, the soldiers standing guard in Lecheng were sleeping, and no one would have thought that an enemy army would suddenly kill. Qin Fei had already attacked the city today, but he had never attacked at night, and the defenders also took it for granted that Qin Fei would not choose to attack at night.
A black light flashed, and the defending soldiers standing guard fell down in response, but they were held back by a black shadow that suddenly appeared, and did not immediately report to the ground. When the soldier next to him saw it, he immediately shouted, but he couldn't make a sound. I only felt a sore throat, and then I lost my senses.
Immediately afterwards, more and more Ye Jun masters went to the city wall, and the soldiers on the city wall were killed silently one after another. Eventually, a large number of dark shadows gathered and gradually poured in the direction of the city gate.
There are no absolutes in everything, no matter how cautious and cautious you are, you will inevitably be discovered. The soldiers near the city gate were not blind, so many people attacked together, it was strange not to see them.
Of course, there isn't much time left for them to react. Just after the soldier saw the black shadow attacking and shouted "Enemy attack!" loudly, a dagger also broke through the air.
Dealing with the soldiers near the city gate, it was definitely devastating, and there was not much time wasted at all, and when the soldiers patrolling nearby arrived, the gate was already slowly being opened.
The reaction speed of the defenders of Lecheng was not unpleasant, but unfortunately, the long period of comfort made these soldiers too relaxed. Their vigilance was also greatly reduced, the number of defenders gathered was not too many, and the impact was not large, and they were easily resisted by hundreds of Ye troops.
As the gate opened, the elite cavalry that had been waiting for a long time quickly rushed in. The feeling of the hideous cavalry to the soldiers defending the city was obviously more terrifying than that of the hundreds of good soldiers. The gate was opened, the elite cavalry broke in, and the morale of the soldiers defending the city was greatly reduced. Although the defenders continued to build, they were increasingly unable to resist.
Qin Fei led an army of more than 10,000 infantry to arrive in an instant, and the defenders of Lecheng were already demoralized by the cavalry rush just now, and now they saw tens of thousands of Ye troops rushing in, and they immediately scattered and fled, unable to organize effective resistance at all.
A defeated army was not much different from a sheep on the steppe. Qin Fei's men and horses were the steppe wolves who hunted sheep, closely cooperating, the cavalry galloped in the city, chasing the fleeing defenders of Lecheng, and others also began to attack one after another, seizing the surrounding city gates and seizing control of Lecheng.
There were too many routs, and they were running around the streets like flies.
"Kill!" every Ye Jun was in high spirits, marching wildly, shouting and killing resounded throughout the city;
Every time you encounter a street corner, you have to divide your troops, and in the end, a street will be divided into dozens of people, but you can chase hundreds of routs to cry and cry for your mother.
Sheep are sheep, no matter how many are sheep, in the case of this great rout, no one dares to turn back and fight hard, and when they are chased and have no way to escape, they will hula la and kneel on the ground, holding their heads and begging for mercy.
Although the defenders of Lecheng have nearly 100,000 troops, but in the case of no one to organize, they can only become the sheep being chased, Ye Jun only paid a slight price, and controlled the surrounding gates of Lecheng, and the next thing is to clear the remnants of the enemy in the city.
At this moment, Qin Fei looked at the courageless defenders of Lecheng, and then shouted loudly: "Those who surrender will not be killed!"
Hearing Qin Fei's words, the Lecheng soldiers around them finally breathed a sigh of relief, they quickly threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground, so that Lecheng had no strength to resist, and Qin Fei's army completely occupied Lecheng.
After a few days, Qin Fei finally won Lecheng, and the territory of Qingyun Territory expanded again!
At this moment, all the officials in Lecheng have been strictly imprisoned, and the prisoner of war camp formed by the captive soldiers has been left behind with heavy guards, and the soldiers in Qin Fei's hands except for a thousand cavalry, the other Ye troops have all been sent out to patrol to maintain law and order in Lecheng.
This thousand cavalry is still Qin Fei's mobile force that stayed behind to be ready to support at any time for the sake of insurance.
This Lecheng has a population of nearly one million, it is a first-class small city, and it is the most powerful existence in the small city, after the broken city, maintaining order naturally requires a large number of people and horses, fortunately, Qin Fei's army has a strong deterrent, and after recruiting some prisoners who defend the city, there are a large number of people and horses to maintain law and order, and his army can be used as a deterrent.
It was only about ten days after Qin Fei broke through the world of Lecheng, and Ye Qing, who was sitting in Tsing Yi City, also received good news from Wang Feng, Song Fei and others, although Ye Qing gave them the task of only striking at the living force of the target territory, but in order to prove their ability, the two armies Ye followed Qin Fei and directly captured the target territory.
At this point, Ye Qing can be said to have become the most powerful force in the Chaotic Hills in one fell swoop, occupying five of the nine small cities, with a population of nearly 10 million and a territory of more than 500,000 square kilometers.
However, Ye Qing currently occupies only about half of the territory and population of the Chaotic Hills, and the other three cities together also have a territory and population comparable to Ye Qing's current first.
Even in terms of comprehensive strength, they are stronger than Ye Qing, after all, these three cities have a history of many years, and their heritage is not comparable to Ye Qing.
