Chapter 668: Anti-Aggression

The Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force was undefeated in the Gukou landing battle, and was always on guard against the extraordinary means of the Far Eastern Empire, and went south to replenish the consumed ordnance and troops.

With the departure of the cannon giant ship, the city of Mo Shuojin has become prosperous again, and even the officialdom of the capital, which was shocked three times a day, has returned to its old and depressed atmosphere.

The mind of the barbarian chieftain, even the best at figuring out the intentions of the henchmen and important ministers is not very good, directly mastering the harem of the iron cavalry outside the Guanwai, wearing the system of the green girl in the same line, and not getting any reward, the atmosphere in the big interior is simply death-like silence, although the thunder, rain and dew are all gentlemen, the current situation is like a cold winter wax moon dripping into ice.

The truth is that the nerves of the "Tian Khan" are as thick as a bucket, and he originally looked down on the transformation of foreign people, who would have thought that the expeditionary force of the Eagle Jili Empire would go north along the coastal road, drift in the sea off Jincheng, and even force a landing to fight at all costs.

The cannon fire of the Battle of Gukou was like thunder, if it weren't for the soldiers of the empire who used their lives to pile up and kill the firearms battalion with horse leather shrouds, and dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the expeditionary force of the Eagle Jili Empire, if the empire failed in this battle, it would definitely lead to a shock in the current situation, which was serious enough to threaten the country.

It was a fluke for the barbarians to enter the Central Plains, and they took advantage of the opportunity of the great loss of internal and external strength of the former dynasty to carry out this act of swallowing elephants, with a mere million small clans, to dominate hundreds of millions of Li people.

Because of this, the barbarians have not won the country properly, since the establishment of the country, there have been rebellions in various places, and the barbarian empire has not had a long peaceful life, and it has to be quelled by troops every three or five times, and the national strength has been lost on these things, and the vitality has been wasted.

On the one hand, he was imperceptibly influenced by the harem and countless women in the harem, erudite and knowledgeable, and on the other hand, he was educated by the traditional education of the barbarian royal family, proficient in power to control countless domestic slaves and foreign ministers, both the open-mindedness of politicians and the autocratic face of barbarian chieftains.

For example, under the influence of the Dressed Green Girl, Tian Khan knew a lot about firearms, much more than the old barbarian royal family, but he valued the barbarian tradition of being skillful with bows and horses, which deeply bound the thinking of the barbarian chieftains.

The results of the Battle of Gukou were both defeated, and the blow to Tian Khan was not insignificant.

He was the one who inspected the iron cavalry outside the gate with his own eyes, and he knew very well that his grandmother was in the land where the barbarians were prosperous, recruiting warriors who had been tempered by the bitter cold environment outside the gate, and the elite heavy iron cavalry that he had deliberately trained.

Five thousand iron cavalry is the strongest weapon of the empire, enough to sweep the world, in the past, it has won many battles, and it has never missed, but it did not expect to be defeated in front of the firearms of the alien.

Tian Khan received the surviving warriors, and was surprised to find that the fearless elite of the empire were all dead, leaving only an empty shell, and they had exhausted everything during the battle of Gukou, and now there was nothing left.

What is the concept of the casualty rate of this iron cavalry outside the Guanguan exceeding 90 percent? Most of the members are from the families of barbarian princes and nobles, and overnight, the courtyard of the high gate of the capital is covered with linen and filial piety, and the city is full of vegetarian food.

This battle lost the vitality of the empire, and also knocked out the backbone of the barbarian main battle faction, they could not stiffen their waists to deal with the main and faction, which meant that above the court, the two forces rose and fell, and the latter obviously had the upper hand.

As a balancer, Tian Khan naturally wants to reach out and pull the main battle faction, but he is not a king who will fight the world immediately and is accustomed to a peaceful life, and when he finds that the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force is so powerful, his heart is really bottomless.

After all, the strongest heavy iron cavalry of the empire has lost everything, played the most important trump card, and has not many hole cards in his hand.

If you don't have hole cards, you won't have confidence!

Fortunately, the gunboat fleet of the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force returned from the Battle of Gukou without success, and was greeted by the top assassin Assasin at night, and found that the Great Empire of the Far East was unfathomable, so he took the initiative to go south and enter victoriously.

In this way, the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force lost the opportunity to sign the alliance under the city, and the Barbarian Empire also saved its face.

The Eagle Geeli Empire Expeditionary Force, which had been heading south, assembled on an island at the mouth of the Pearl River, which was originally just a small fishing village and had long been transformed into an advance base.

Here, the Eagle Gilly Imperial Expeditionary Force was replenished with a large number of personnel and soldiers, followed by a large number of ordnance, which was resurrected in the blink of an eye with full blood on the spot, and also obtained a god costume like a steam ironclad ship.

The supreme general, who was unwilling to be defeated, personally led the fleet to the north along the Pearl River from the mouth of the sea, and opened fire on the "governor" of the Far Eastern Empire and the soldiers and civilians on both sides of the strait to declare the strength of the Eagle Jili Empire's expeditionary force.

This move was not without effect, and the royal family of the Great Empire of the Far East sent envoys south to discuss specific matters such as the aftermath of the war.

The top general of the Eagle Gilli Imperial Expeditionary Force was very satisfied with this and began negotiations with the help of an interpreter.

Now that the Barbarian Empire is controlled by the Lords and factions, the royal envoys are ostensibly submissive, but they bring together all the negative drawbacks of the bureaucratic political system, and bring into full play the cowardly and incompetent, petty interests and indecisive side.

The negotiation time stretched from summer to late autumn, and the top generals of the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force made gains and progress every day, but they were never able to achieve it in one step.

When the time came to the end of the year, the birthday of the supreme god who had shone on the continent for two thousand years was approaching, and the Eagle Gillian Empire Expeditionary Force finally obtained a treaty worth looking forward to.

It's a pity that without the recognition and seal of the Great Empire of the Far East, this is a piece of waste paper.

Finally, the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force suddenly came to its senses, and the annoyed and angry Supreme General ordered a war.

The location was chosen right here where the former "Doge" destroyed the most competitive and profitable goods in the Eagle Empire, the gateway guarded by the tigers!

This flotilla dominated by artillery and huge ships suddenly launched a despicable and shameless sneak attack, severely damaged the garrison, killed more than 700 green battalion soldiers on the spot, blew up and sank dozens of ships on the back, and the remaining frightened defenders threw away their armor and fled separately.

Seeing the opponent's tragic situation clearly through the optical refraction and reflection device, the morale of the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force suddenly skyrocketed, and the haze of the Battle of Gukou was annihilated by the Far Eastern Empire's heavy iron cavalry charge.

After the war, the Eagle Gilly Empire expeditionary force took advantage of the victory to pursue, went north along the Pearl River, and used a giant cannon with a longer range to forcibly pull out many of the batteries of the Far Eastern Empire.

Within a few days, the invading troops of this cannon giant ship had already threatened Wuyang City, where the governor's seat was located.

The envoys of the barbarian royal family betrayed the interests of the country in exchange for the goodwill of the enemy, hoping that the opponent would take the initiative to withdraw his troops.

However, the Eagle Gilly Empire adhered to the principle that if you can't get something at the negotiation table, you can win it on the battlefield, and launched artillery to attack Wuyang City.

Ignoring the envoy's demands and even verbal orders, the main battle faction led by foreign ministers immediately led the army and people to resist the invaders.

However, people's feelings and fighting spirit cannot close the weapon gap that is an era apart from each other, whether it is a fixed position of the fort or a clipper on the river, they cannot get close to the fleet of the Eagle Geeli Empire Expeditionary Force, let alone deal a heavy blow to the invaders.

The vigorous battle came to an end, and the fig leaf of the Great Empire of the Far East was accidentally torn off by the cannon giant ships of the Eagle Geely Empire Expeditionary Force, revealing its embarrassing true colors.

However, the people who came to power and groveled to negotiate and were knocked out by the invaders slowly woke up in pain.

As the only city in the Barbarian Empire that opened a treaty port, the people here opened their eyes to the world earlier.

The people who lost their loved ones in the war were even more bitter about the enemy, and they actively united in private, relying on blood kinship as a bond, and gradually formed a loose but extensive alliance.

When the boots of the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force once again set foot on the land of the Great Empire of the Far East, it was not long before they were sniped by the mobilized populace.

What is even more tragic is that the sky is not beautiful, dark clouds cover the sky, the vision is dim, and it is pouring rain.

The Eagle Gilly Empire expeditionary force, which insisted on landing, was attacked from all directions, but the arquebuses they were equipped with were afraid of water and wet weather, so they had to engage in white-knuckle battles with the local soldiers and civilians.

In the dim and dull field of vision, the soldiers and civilians of the Great Eastern Empire were everywhere, and the landing team of the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force fell into the vast sea of people's war.

Due to the loss of their grasp of the direction and direction, they once stayed away from the river area where the fleet was located, and retreated from the Wuyang city area to the hometown of the three fathers in the suburbs, leaving behind many wounded and bloody corpses of their comrades-in-arms along the way.

It wasn't until the top commander of the fleet noticed that something was wrong, fired a salvo from artillery, pointed the way for the marines who had been lost on land, and forced a way out, that it was extremely difficult to bring back the few remaining elites of the empire.

This battle gave the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force a great shock, especially the new recruits who were replenished, most of them came from the Eastern Company and the Southeast Colonies, and they were used to being powerful in the past, and they did not expect to be hit so hard.

"After all, we are challenging the great empire that once stood in the center of the world, even if the barbarians are corrupt and declining, and the barbarian government is corrupt and incompetent, we cannot despise this group of people living in this land. Put away your pride and prejudices, and give me a wake-up call to the people of the Empire as the great power of the continent. ”

In two successive landing battles, the Eagle Geli Empire Expeditionary Force did not reap the benefits, but lost the war by throwing away their armor, and even lost a good situation.

The anger in the heart of the supreme general is naturally self-evident, anyway, with their support, the merchants of the Eagle Gilly Empire with a special mission will be treated well by the Barbarian Empire, and that is enough!

Since the king of the barbarians did not have the sincerity to sign the alliance under the city, the top general of the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force decided to continue to fight, through one tragic war after another, to teach the barbarians who occupied this land, to attack the prestige of the barbarian imperial government, even if it was to use strong means, to make them change their thinking in the Middle Ages, and learn the way of getting along with great powers in modern civilization.

The Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force learned through various channels that the hard-line governor who destroyed the goods of the Empire had been removed, the generals of the main battle faction had stepped down, and the business of the Imperial merchants had reopened, which determined that at least in Wuyang City, the prestige of the Eagle Gilly Empire was respected by the local government of the Barbarian Empire.

They decided to repeat their old tricks and go north again along the coastline, using fierce battles and gunsmoke battlefields to make the barbarians understand and respect the glory of the Eagle Gilli Empire.

As a result, during this period, the Barbarian Empire ordered the feudal officials to rectify the coastal defense, and the people on the southeast coast learned of the battle of Wuyangcheng, although they were defeated, they all took the initiative to resist the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force, or cooperate with the Green Battalion to deal with the marines who forcibly landed.

When the gate of Hu Jian's famous mansion was captured by the artillery and giant ships of the Eagle Jili Expeditionary Force, the local soldiers and civilians immediately united and took advantage of the cover of night to launch a counter-aggression war from land and sea.

The Eagle Gilli Empire Expeditionary Force suffered heavy losses and was so tormented by earth-made mines and fireships that it had to take the risk and retreat overnight to the island, where the drums and waves were accomplished.

Hu Jianren's bravery and good fighting gave the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force a great shock, and after replenishing fresh water and food on the island, this invading army that had taken a short break had to give up the fat to the mouth and move on to the next strategic goal.

Who knew that the fishermen in the neighboring provinces were even more fierce, and knew that the firearms of the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force were powerful, and they specially launched attacks at night, led by the legendary senior fish leader, and formed a "Blackwater Party" with strong combat effectiveness.

An endless stream of "water ghosts" launched attacks, mainly pulling out sentry posts and scuttling boats, which dealt a heavy blow to the night defense of the Eagle Jili Empire Expeditionary Force.

The threat of not knowing where death would come from made the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force fear the coming of night.

However, the season came in late autumn and early winter, the nights were getting longer and the days were getting shorter, and the generals still had nothing to do, and the imperial soldiers and sailors were already tired of fighting.

When the Eagle Gilly Empire expeditionary force repeated its old tricks and decided to abandon the coast and enter the inland river, but on the long river, the resistance of the soldiers and civilians on both sides of the river to the invading army was also extremely fierce.

The rope nets that go down the river are a good weapon of great killing, especially against the tail rudder propellers of the steam ironclads, which simply drive the sailors crazy.

Launched as many as twenty times a day, all to remove the nets that were wrapped around the propellers.

The wisdom of the people is unlimited, when the high-ranking officials of the barbarian imperial government were still worried and began to fear the military power of the Eagle Empire, the firecrackers and fireworks invented by the ancestors were improved, integrated into the privately cast bronze cannons, turned into flowering bombs, thundering eggs, and launched a baptism of flames against the invading army dominated by this cannon giant ship.

Asphalt and resin are also widely used in various occasions due to their floating properties, and are usually used as preparations for fire attacks, once burning four wooden gunboats in one go, giving a heavy blow to the Eagle Gilly Empire Expeditionary Force.

The news reached Ye Zhiqiu's ears through the Cao Gang channel, and the de facto behind-the-scenes controller of Jincheng couldn't wait to let the Eagle Geely Empire Expeditionary Force see the benefits of mechanical armor.
