Chapter 598: Sue for Peace
The follow-up troops also arrived within two days.
Qin Ning ordered all the troops to spread out along the four sides of Wude City and surround Wude City.
This is really a dumpling with a big filling in a thin skin, and 100,000 people are scattered in the four directions of Wude City, with less than 30,000 people in each direction, and they are all likely to face twice or even three times as many enemies in Wude City.
In Wude City, at the military meeting organized by the second prince, the one-sided shape of the main battle underwent a reversal change due to the fiasco of the first battle.
At this time, there were still quite a few generals fighting. There is no other reason, the first battle was defeated because the enemy's ordnance was too fierce and did not take precautions, not because the soldiers were not desperate enough and brave enough.
Although the enemy is vigorous, he has a fatal weakness, that is, he is at an absolute disadvantage in numbers. It is not necessary to make contact with the enemy, but to use tactics to exhaust the enemy.
In other words, the troops that go out to fight look like they are going to fight the enemy, but in fact they are bluffing, and when the enemy moves, we will withdraw.
Behind us is our base camp, and it's safe to retreat.
The enemy, on the other hand, is always in a state of instability. The small number of the opponent itself, coupled with the constant harassment, will definitely produce a feeling of exhaustion, so tired of the other party, will naturally disintegrate the enemy's will to fight, and then lay a good foundation for future battles.
The second prince didn't want to fight at all, and the battle of 10,000 people sent out was already the psychological limit of the second prince. If the defeat was not so bad, the second prince might have been able to have some courage to try to fight.
However, the situation reported back made the second prince completely desperate. Qin Ning is unfathomable. The second prince has been deeply taught, and the second prince never dreamed of having such an opponent.
saw the gloomy face of the second prince. Munch knew what he had to say.
"Guys, it's good for the main battle. Whether it is the main guard or not, a common purpose of everyone is to protect His Highness to defend Wude City. Everyone knows the battle report of the first battle, and the Qin army's ordnance is too terrifying. Even if we go out to lure the enemy, we will suffer heavy losses because of the extraordinarily long range of the enemy's ordnance, which will undoubtedly have a great impact on the psychology of the soldiers. Therefore, I believe that it is the best policy to hold on to the enemy and wait for the enemy to retreat. ”
The second prince nodded gloomily, glanced around at everyone and said, "Munch is very reasonable. So it was decided. Order that all troops are not allowed to leave the city, but those who dare to speak out will be subject to military law!"
Seeing that the second prince had made up his mind to shrink back on the defensive, everyone didn't dare to say different opinions anymore.
Since they do not go out to attack, then all the preparations for war revolve around defense. From the armory, all the defensive ordnance was brought out and piled up on top of the city walls. Although this is a bit of a nest, the generals feel that the enemy has only a small number of troops. If you want to take Wude City, it's also a fool's dream.
Everything has been realized according to Qin Ning's expectations, and now in front of Qin Ning is how to startle the snake.
The walls of Wude City were extremely strong, and the number of defenders was extremely large. Knock down a wall. It should be possible to concentrate all the heavy artillery of the Qin army.
But what is the use of destroying a wall?
Moreover, as soon as you enter Wude City, because of the limitations of the building. Weapons such as rainstorm pear bullets, which are known for their firepower, will be greatly reduced.
If the 100,000 people enter the city. I'm afraid it's the meat buns that beat the dog.
Through Guò observation, Qin Ning found that Wude City was extremely amazing in terms of investment in city defense. Basically put all the weapons that can be used on the table.
Now, Wude City is very shameless and clearly told Qin Ning, I am just shrinking into defense, see what you can do to me?
The city gates are closed, the city walls are strong, and there is saturated anti-aircraft firepower, basically Wude City has become a turtle shell, and wherever you start, you will encounter an incomparably strong turtle shell.
Qin Ning decided to hold off for the time being, and ordered all troops not to conduct any military operations until they received the order.
The actions of the Qin army made the city defense troops of Wude City incomprehensible, and they came over with great fanfare, and won the first battle so beautifully, and the next thing should be to attack the city in one go, why did they be busy and lively for a long time, but they didn't move?
For a day, two days, three days, and more than ten days, the Qin army did not move at all.
The defenders of Wude City gradually slackened a little, although the generals knew that there must be a reason for the abnormality, and repeatedly warned their subordinates to be careful, but once they were about to relax, it was not a few orders that could be tightened.
Qin Ning observed the slackness of the soldiers defending the city, and immediately ordered the Qin troops in all directions of Wude City to launch a heavy artillery attack on the city wall of Wude City that night, and every half an hour, carry out a round of heavy artillery shelling.
As soon as the cannon sounded, the defenders of Wude City were suddenly chaotic.
The accumulation of slack momentum for more than ten days made these people feel a little like they were back to their normal state, and all of a sudden heavy artillery attacked, although it did not hit their bodies, but it also caused great panic.
When all the troops entered their posts and were ready to meet the enemy, they found that there was no enemy attack at all, and, after some time, the shelling stopped.
The tense soldiers defending the city waited for a long time without moving, and just wanted to leave their posts, another round of shelling came.
The rounds of shelling made the defenders of Wude City extremely tired.
For several days, Qin Ning used such fatigue tactics. Slowly, the soldiers defending Wude City have also become accustomed to such shelling, and even developed the habit of sleeping in the sound of cannons.
After another time, Qin Ning organized a huge aircraft formation and dispersed all the heavy artillery at the west gate of Wude City in the direction of the other three city gates, and the aircraft formation led by Qin Ning wanted to enter the city of Wude City from the west gate.
That night, the heavy artillery in the southeast and north of Wude City suddenly increased the intensity of the attack, and there was no intention of stopping at all, and the heavy artillery hit one round after another, so that some city walls collapsed.
The most terrifying thing is the defenders of the west gate of Wude City, the camp of the Qin army opposite. There was no movement, which was much more terrifying than being hit by heavy artillery.
Suddenly. A bright projectile shot up into the sky, lighting up the entire night sky. Under the illumination of the bright light of the projectile. The defenders of the west gate of Wude City were horrified to find that there were more than 30 large flying machines, overwhelmingly rushing towards the west gate.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" accompanied by hysterical screams, the alarm bell of the West Gate sounded like a dead man, and the defending troops pounced on the anti-aircraft fire ordnance.
However, just as the defenders were about to use anti-aircraft fire to knock down the large flying machine, countless projectiles were suddenly spilled from one of the large flying machines.
These projectiles were not aimed at the defending troops, but were evenly sprinkled on the ground one by one.
All ......
The projectile exploded on the ground, and the explosion was not loud. There was also no terrifying shockwave, but after the explosion of these projectiles, an extremely terrifying dazzling light was produced.
Ahh......hhh
Desperate screams came one after another, Qin Jun fired a super dazzling bullet, and the bright light produced after the explosion was enough to blind people if they were directly touched, even if they were far away, they would make people blind and dizzy for a period of time.
The air defense forces are out of sight, how can they hit the enemy?
The aircraft formation led by Qin Ning. Shun lì arrived above the anti-aircraft defensive position. A high-explosive high-grade alchemy projectile was sprinkled, the defensive position was in a sea of fire, and the strong fortifications flew into the sky at once.
The aircraft flew along the broken air defense position and flew deep into Wude City. This time, it was not a projectile that was thrown, but a letter.
At dawn, the second prince read the letter tremblingly.
Qin Ning passed on the meaning to the second prince. I have the ability to turn Wude City into a sea of fire purgatory, but I can't bear it. If the second prince is obsessed with it again. I'm afraid you'll be left with no bones left.
The tragic situation in Xicheng made those generals who fought silently. If the flying machine led by Qin Ning threw a sufficient amount of high-grade alchemy projectiles last night. Then Wude City has now become a purgatory on earth.
What Qin Ning said is true!
"Let's make peace!" the second prince hung his hand weakly, and the letter fell to the ground, "Send someone to contact the Qin army, and say that I am willing to offer Wude City with both hands, but I will lead the army that is willing to follow me to evacuate together." ”
The negotiating envoy found Qin Ning and told Qin Ning what the second prince meant. Qin Ning did not hesitate for a moment, and immediately agreed to the second prince's request for peace.
However, Qin Ning also set a deadline for the second prince to evacuate Wude City within three days, otherwise he would no longer be merciful.
In fact, after such a long period of consumption, Qin Ning was close to running out of ammunition. Otherwise, Qin Ning could still squeeze the second prince.
After the second prince got the reply, he immediately packed his bags and left Wude City.
It's really miserable, only 80,000 people are willing to leave with the second prince, and the remaining 120,000 defenders of Wude City have all surrendered to Qin Ning.
Unlike the Polar City, Wude City has not been damaged too much, except for the broken city walls, the internal building structure is still there.
Qin Ning asked all the defenders of Wude City to withdraw from the city and put down the weapons in their hands to prevent changes.
At this time, he didn't care about how much else there was going on in Polar City, so he transferred Jin Long and Qiu Wenhe over.
The matter of reorganizing the army of Wude City was handed over to Jin Long to handle, and the administrative affairs of Wude City were naturally over-handled by Qiu Wenhe.
The most headache is the 120,000 troops in Wude City, if they are put together, Qin Ning is still afraid that there will be no chaos in the future, but the people have already surrendered, and if they don't arrange it, they can't say it.
Qin Ning decided to talk to these people from the bottom of his heart, Qin Ning said all his worries, and finally made it clear that he was also a villain first and then a gentleman, as long as he wanted to do it with himself, he would be treated according to the treatment of the Qin army, but all the original structures must be disrupted and reincorporated into the Qin army.
If they are not willing to become soldiers, Qin Ning can let these people be treated as citizens within the Qin army's sphere of influence and can choose their own lifestyle.
In the end, the soldiers agreed to disrupt the formation and integrate into the Qin army.
After solving the surrendered army, Qin Ning asked Qiu Wenhe to temporarily act as the city lord of Wude City, with the 100,000 Qin troops besieging the city as the backbone, and then incorporated into the surrendered army of 40,000, a total of 140,000 troops responsible for the defense of Wude City.
After taking Wude City, Qin Ning, the seven-star iron wall, has already accounted for four.
In this way, the forces of the Abyss Empire have changed dramatically.
The Qin army has already appeared on the stage of the Abyss Empire's separatist forces as a new giant. (To be continued......)
