In a way, the appearance of the mercenaries can be regarded as temporarily saving the Chen family, at least giving them a chance to deal with the situation. Of course, if the mercenaries retreat, it won't be long before the Chen family will still face a lot of pressure and danger.

It was precisely because he learned about these early that this time the lark found Chen Di instead of visiting other important ministers. Because according to their analysis, the Chen clan is the most likely to bow to the mercenaries, and in some ways, everyone has a common enemy, don't they?

Seeing that Chen Di was a little speechless at this meeting, the lark smiled like a victor, "Okay, Lord Chen, you don't have to think too much, seriously, this time I came here to save you, don't you say?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Chen Di knew that the other party had checked his old bottom clearly, and in such a situation, it was pointless to talk about anything else, so he sighed and said: "Okay, then say whatever you want to say, and see if I can do it." ”

Faced with this obvious bowing statement, the lark knew that the main topic was coming, "It's very simple, when we attack the city tomorrow, we need your help, we are loyal to the public, no matter how strong the castle is, we are afraid of attacking it from the inside, so you should understand what I mean." Of course, if you do this, when the city is broken, your Chen bloodline can be preserved, how about it? Isn't this a fair deal? ”

Skylark bluntly said that he needed to do things in the city, and Chen Di had already prepared for this. After all, if it weren't for this, there would be no need for the other party to risk appearing in front of him at this time. It's just that he was a little dissatisfied that the other party only said that the Chen bloodline could be retained, and did not say that the Chen family would be properly settled, which was not what he thought.

When you need help from others, shouldn't you have to give a lot? It's like such an understatement, the Chen family can live to let him betray Jiaozhi, obviously this bargaining chip is a little low, so then he refused to argue and said: "This is a little unfair, I need to take such a big risk, even the world's scolding, all I get is to live, this..."

"Of course, not only are you alive, you can also have the power to form an army of 10,000, of course, this army can be led by your Chen family, but when something happens, you still have to listen to the mercenaries. Well, this is already our biggest concession, you must know that with the powerful firepower of the mercenaries, even if you don't do this, Xiyu City will still be broken, and at that time, the Chen family is afraid that they will not even be able to leave their bloodline, which should not be what Lord Chen wants to see. ”

Chen Di, who originally wanted to talk about it, suddenly turned a bad face when he heard the powerful firepower of the mercenaries, and then he thought about what a powerful enemy he was facing this time. Even if he doesn't contribute, it will only be a matter of time before Xiyu City is broken, and when it really comes, will he blame himself for giving up the opportunity in front of him?

Once he let the clansmen know that there was once a hope of life in front of him, and he didn't fight for it, those people would definitely tear themselves apart.

It wasn't meant to be a fair negotiation. The chips in Chen Di's hand were too few. Faced with the half-threat and half-temptation of the lark, he quickly surrendered and had to agree to the other party's request. As for whether it will be dangerous to do this, what are you kidding, if the city is broken, there will be no danger to him?

Not to mention, if Chen Di doesn't agree, I'm afraid he will die tonight.

The night continues, but some people's mindsets have changed. After agreeing to the lark's request, the two began to discuss tomorrow's war, and it is conceivable that with such an internal tumor, the speed of the collapse of the originally torn country can only be faster.

The sky is finally going to be bright, and when time passes little by little, and Taishang also hangs to the sky, a battle to destroy the country is slowly unfolding.

Today is a good day. The previous drizzle is long gone, and the sun hanging high in the sky gives people a scorching feeling, which seems to make people unconsciously shed layers of sweat. Of course, whether these sweats are really because of the hot weather, or because they are scared and nervous, then everyone will see.

The time was about to reach noon, and there was still no movement from the Jiaozhi army in the west of the city. This seems to have indicated their attitude.

Yang Chendong, who had been prepared for a long time, first ordered the army to open fire and raise food, and after lunch, when it was still a quarter of an hour before noon, the mercenaries began to move, slowly approaching the west and east towers.

Just three miles outside the east gate of the west city, a large Jingguan composed of about 5,000 heads was standing there at this time.

This was left behind by the Jiaozhi soldiers during the First World War yesterday. They left behind six or seven thousand corpses, and except for a few soldiers who had been shot and had their heads smashed, the heads of the other dead soldiers were collected and piled up into such a Jingguan.

The accumulation of 5,000 human heads is already very spectacular, plus the "materials" are still very fresh, and from time to time there will be blood flowing out of the skull, looking at it from a distance, it gives people a very terrifying feeling.

This is the psychological tactic played by Yang Chendong. What's more, it was originally the Jiaozhi man named Mo Tuo who assassinated him in front of him, and no matter what kind of posture he put on now, what kind of means he played, others had nothing to say.

There is a saying that righteousness is on his side.

Although Jingguan is terrifying, it is only a means to affect the morale of the opponent's army, and if you want to win the opponent on the battlefield, you still need to rely on strong military capabilities in the end.

At this point, the mercenaries are naturally also strong, just like now, at the forefront of the team outside the city, it is naturally the main third battalion of Leng Feng. There are four companies of four hundred Leng Feng holding the ninety-five style heroic.

To the left and right, there were seven auxiliary battalions, and 2,800 soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms but not wearing military ranks held eighty-one bars in their hands, staring at the front like lions catching rabbits, and a picture of a picture that would make a crazy pounce at any time.

Behind the auxiliary battalion were 18,000 Cochin mercenaries. They were dressed in the uniforms of the Cochin Army, but each of them had a white towel of the same color on their right arm to distinguish them from the Cochin Army in the city.

Behind the Cochin mercenaries were seven temporary auxiliary battalions. Each of them held a steel knife or a spear in one hand, and their movements were uniform. Their presence is not only for the final touch, but also to prevent the cochin mercenaries in front of them from rebelling.

Although anyone with an eye can see that Cochin is now the general trend, anything can happen before there is no result. You can't have the heart to hurt people, but the heart to prevent people is really indispensable.

And behind the nearly 3,000 temporary auxiliary battalions, there are figures in green camouflage uniforms.

The number of people in this team is not very large, and it is only more than 100 people, but those who are familiar with mercenaries know that this is the core of this team. In fact, this is also where Yang Chendong is located. In addition to the platoon of cold front fighters beside him, there are also soldiers from the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team, the Ghost Sniper Team, and the First and Second Guard Teams.

The big war was approaching, but Yang Chendong didn't take a look at the situation ahead, but squatted down and stroked a few iron weapons dressed in army green like stroking a beautiful woman.

If any future generations of soldiers could see this scene, they would definitely call out at the first time, "This is a mortar!" ”

Yes, it's a mortar.

Yang Chendong thought about it for a long time last night, and finally rejected the idea of taking out the giant cannon from the big warehouse. But he didn't do nothing, and he still came up with mortars, a new type of weapon, for today's war.

Even if he has a large warehouse in his hand, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't make good use of the contents of it?

Whether it is a cold front or an auxiliary soldier, or even a temporary auxiliary soldier, a future cold front seed, it is not easy to cultivate. If he has the ability to make them sacrifice less, of course he will not be stingy to come up with something more. Mortars were what he had prepared.

The mortar is a kind of curved smoothbore artillery with a short gun body, a large firing angle, a high ballistic arc, a seat plate to bear recoil, a muzzle loading, and a tail projectile.

The muzzle-loaded, curved artillery, with a short barrel, a short firing range, light and flexible, can shoot at targets behind shelters.

Since its inception, mortars have been an effective suppression weapon to support and accompany infantry operations, and are an extremely important conventional weapon for infantry.

And what Yang Chendong took out was a 100 mm mortar belonging to the active regiment of China and the country.

100 mm - the caliber of the mortar belonging to the active regiment battalion of China and the country. The full mass is about 100 kg, the maximum range is 8000 meters, and the effective killing radius is about 20 meters.

This mortar is not the largest caliber, nor is it the smallest, and the weight of 200 catties is not too heavy, at least a few people can still be easily lifted together.

When five mortars appeared in Yang Chendong's tent in the morning, only Hu Mang and Yang Er were surprised. It's just that fortunately, they have seen a lot of such things, and even if the young master didn't explain it to them, they naturally wouldn't ask questions.

As for the others, seeing that Hu Mang and Yang Er didn't show the slightest surprise, they wouldn't even ask, thinking that this was originally something arranged by the Sixth Young Master.

Yang Chendong could feel a trace of incomprehension in the eyes of Hu Mang and Yang Er, but he didn't explain. Don't they all think of themselves as gods? Then go ahead and be, in fact, he really doesn't know how to explain anything.
