Chapter 50: Let them be
The garrison flag regiment of 5,000 people was caught off guard by the surprise attack of hundreds of thousands of troops. In the face of the encirclement and suppression of the absolutely superior forces, the orderly resistance of the elves quickly disappeared. There is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, and those second-line elven soldiers still have the heart to resist, either fleeing outside the city, or rushing to the harbor, preparing to get on the ship and escape from the city.
The Guards Regiment followed the main road in the city, chasing ducks and following the rout towards the harbor, and the figure of the Yanyang-class battleship on the harbor not far away was already close at hand. Although I don't know the identity of this battleship, its outstanding appearance makes it clear that it must be the flagship of the elven fleet without much thought. The Guards followed the rout, and before the Royal Navy could react, they boarded the main ships.
"It's done! let's go into the city!" When the army attacked the city gate, Zhou Yi and the others drove their war horses to slowly advance towards Wanghai City. After the heralds came back to report the battle, he greeted Zhao Mu, raised his horsewhip and whipped it fiercely, rushing towards the city gate like a whirlwind. Zhao Mu was also excited to hurry up, although he heard Zhou Yi talk about strategy, but he didn't expect that he would take Wanghai City so lightly.
"Report! The 1st Division of the Guards Regiment has completely annihilated the enemy's navy and taken over 51 main warships!"
"Report! The battle of the city defense is over, and the defenders in the city will be annihilated!"
After entering the city, Tan Ma kept reporting the situation of the battle, and it was all good news.
"Wanghai City has been broken, this is the military stronghold of the elves! Reinforcements and supplies from the mainland will be brought ashore here, and they will definitely take it back at any cost. You'd better hurry up and think about your next step, it's not a good place to stay for long. The little woman doesn't want to wait here with you to die!" Seeing that Zhao Mu was getting more and more excited, and Zhou Yi's expression was also very satisfied, Zhao Min couldn't help but striking, but what he said was a good intention.
Turning her head to look at Zhao Min, she raised her pretty face and threw Zhou Yi a roll of her eyes, which means don't think that I care about you, this county lord doesn't want to die with you.
"Well, capture Wanghai City to replenish the army's supplies, and then burn Hicks's logistical supplies, and let the old fox drink the northwest wind! Let's go north to attack Zhongyue City and Dongyue City, and cut off the branches and vines of the old fox. Seeing Zhao Min's expression, Zhou Yi shook his head helplessly, and he didn't know how he offended her, and he actually had such a big grudge against himself.
This is, Yue Feijie trotted over on a horse and whispered in his ear. By the time Yue Feijie finished speaking, Zhou Yi's eyes had already lit up, and Zhao Min was suspicious. What's so good about it? It can make this guy so happy.
"Your Highness, I'll come when I go, you go to the City Shoufu to rest first!Minmin, you can also go and rest!" Zhou Yi said to the two, although Zhao Mu didn't know what was going on with him, but the past few days of running around were really hard, plus the war was smooth, and he was about to have to travel a long way. After hearing this, he did not refuse, and prepared to go to the castle guard's mansion. He also knew that it might be something that the Eight Banners had gained, but for the sake of the superiors, he had to be tolerant and allow his subordinates to get some benefits. What's more, Zhou Yi, a peerless national warrior, should be full of trust.
"I'll go with you, don't want to leave me! Also, we haven't gotten acquainted to that point, so it's better for Lord Zhou to call me by my name!" Zhao Min was not so easy to dismiss, insisted on following, and solemnly reminded Zhou Yi to pay attention to the salutation, which made him embarrassed.
"Okay, then please ask the county lord to come along!" he didn't care about himself, and quickly changed his name to the county lord, this lord is not a good stubble.
Yue Feijie watched her follow, full of reluctance, but because of Zhou Yi's face, he still led the way in front of the head. The group quickly came to a warehouse area on the dock, and the soldiers with the yellow flag had already been stationed in front of the gate with their bows and arms.
Seeing that Yuedutong arrived with Lord Zhou, several soldiers pushed open the door of the warehouse area and let them go. When the people had entered, they quickly closed the door.
"My lord, this should be the wealth looted by the elven army in the city, as well as their military expenses!
Walking to one of the warehouses, after the soldiers guarding the door saluted Zhou Yi respectfully, they turned around and pushed open the door, only to see rows of large wooden boxes neatly stacked in the room. As a rough estimate, there are probably a few hundred boxes.
"Open it all!" ordered expectantly, and a group of soldiers immediately ran up to open the wooden box.
"Hiss......" Zhao Min, who was following behind him, was shocked by the scene in front of him and gasped, and the golden gold coins were full of boxes, almost every time he opened it. Don't look at her in a high position, her father is the king of Ruyang who controls the world's soldiers and horses. But the Great Yuan Dynasty has long been in decline, and the treasury has long been able to run mice. The little gold and silver that his father had painstakingly raised was also used for military expenses to support the army for the imperial court. She has been strictly disciplined by her father since she was a child, and she has never seen so much wealth.
Zhou Yi waved his hand, and the gold coins in the wooden box disappeared suddenly, leaving an empty wooden box to prove that Zhao Min had indeed seen the deposit of the gold coins.
Yuan opened her small mouth, and the scene in front of her subverted her pitiful cognition even more. What about the gold coins? What kind of trick is this? Is he an immortal? Zhao Min was confused, this is too unbelievable. But looking at what other people are accustomed to, she feels that she really doesn't know too much about the world.
Looking at Zhao Min's surprised appearance, Zhou Yi laughed proudly in his heart, aren't you arrogant and cold? How about it? Aren't you frightened by your brother!
"What's going on?" Zhao Min couldn't help it, Zhao Min asked.
"Space equipment! That is, Nasumeru is almost like a mustard seed!"
"Oh! there really is such a treasure!" Zhao Min began to examine Zhou Yi's whole body, trying to find the so-called treasure, revealing her penchant for collecting the world's divine weapons in the original book.
Being scrutinized by her like this, she felt a little uncomfortable, and Zhou Yi said in a low voice: "I will have the opportunity to tell you in detail in the future, and now I should take these things away first! lest the Guards Legion react for a while, but it is a little bad!"
"Hmm!" replied in a low voice, she was not an unreasonable person, and naturally knew that he was swallowing the spoils of war alone.
With the help of the roulette space, it was only a few moments of work, and the property of the entire warehouse area was confiscated by Zhou Yi. Longbows, feathered arrows, food, bedding, drinks, crystals, and so on were all loaded into the wheel, and the scale of Hicks' million-strong army can be imagined.
Sure enough, as Zhou Yi expected, as soon as everyone finished searching for the materials, there was a shouting and scolding at the gate of the warehouse area.
"Get out of the way! My Guards took the docks first, and didn't send troops to garrison here in order to seize the elven warships. It's good that you dare to take advantage of our inattention to rob our army's spoils!" said a man in the uniform of the commander of the Guards Regiment on his horse, and a group of soldiers behind him were armed with swords, and they looked like they were fighting without saying a word.
"Hmph, you said you came first, you came first, I only know that it was my Eight Banners Legion who occupied this place first!" the half-elf centurion guarding the door had a disdainful expression on his face.
"You're looking for death!" The officer will say it one last time! Get out of the way! Otherwise, don't blame the officer for not talking about friendly forces!" The flag commander sat on his horse and trembled with anger, these half-elves are simply too hateful.
"You dare!" the centurion half-drew his sword, and the soldiers guarding the gate behind him pointed their bows and arrows at the soldiers of the Guards, and the swords were unsheathed and wound. The two armies confronted each other, swords slapping at each other, clearly restrained. However, if you are not careful, a miss may lead to a large-scale firefight.
"This official sees that you are looking for death! Beat this official! Kill him, this official will bear it!" Commander Qi drew his sword and shouted angrily.
"Who dares to be presumptuous! The two armies are fighting, can you bear it with the head of a small flag?!" At the critical moment, Zhou Yi and his party finally came to the gate. Looking at the flag commander who ordered the fight with the friendly forces, he was angry. What a bold man, he dared to fight his allies for the sake of the spoils of war!
"Ah, Lord Zhou! I don't know you're here, please atone for your sins!" The head of the flag was still wondering who dared to scold him, but when he saw Zhou Yi's figure appear, he was so frightened that he was ready to turn over and dismount. As a result, I was scared in my heart, and I accidentally fell off my horse.
The surrounding armies, facing the originally quite funny scene, did not dare to come out. The status of this Lord Zhou in the two armies, as long as he is not blind or deaf, knows it. Even His Royal Highness the Great Prince is obedient to his words, and what are they worth.
Looking at Zhou Yi's cold dripping face, the half-elf centurion also came to the front with trembling to ask for guilt.
"What is the conflict?" I knew in my heart, but at this time I could only pretend not to know. Then the two of you explained the matter in one word, Zhou Yi snorted coldly, and pretended to be generous and said to the centurion: "Let them go!
"Yes, my lord!" Although the centurion did not understand, Zhou Yi's order was greater than the sky, and he turned around and shouted: "All of them, assemble!
"Lord Zhou, I'm ...... I'll ......" The commander of the Guards Regiment's banner smiled wryly, I don't know what to do, if I had known that Zhou Yi was here, I wouldn't have dared to run here to spread wilderness if I had given him ten dares.
"It's okay! If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you must be cautious! You are a high-ranking officer, and you are an example in the army in everything you say and do. If you are too reckless, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the army, remember!" Zhou Yi said to him with a pleasant face, but what he thought in his heart was not enough for outsiders.
After speaking, Zhou Yi didn't care about the group of officers and soldiers of the Guards Regiment who were standing down, and took the group to get on the horse and leave. Zhao Min saw such a scene with his own eyes, and that heart was really full of feelings, this guy was so shameless, things were looted by him, and then left an empty warehouse to be a good person! If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really didn't know that he still had such a side. However, such a man is quite interesting. Thinking of this, a smile tugged at the corners of her charming mouth.
"Captain Banner, the warehouse is empty!" a soldier hurriedly returned from the warehouse, then reported to the Flag Commander.
"Uh......" In the bleak spring breeze, he was left standing at the door stupidly, looking up at the sky godlessly, his eyes wanted to cry without tears, is this himself a villain in vain!
