After days of heavy rain, the British commander Charlie suspended the attack on Duwana City, he is passionate but very well-behaved typical British soldiers, Charlie knows very well that it is impossible to attack Duwana City in a short time, this is unrealistic, because Duwana City is not only the largest city on the Tianzhu Continent, but also the source of the rebellion in Champang, which is currently the most difficult place to attack, Charlie privately disagreed with the arrangement of the former Indian Governor Marbury, in his opinion, Such a rebellion should not be left until now, if it is suppressed earlier, it should not be as serious as it is now, of course, at this time, Charlie still feels that he just needs to spend a little time on his own.

The heavy rain for several days caused the great river that bypassed the city of Duwana to rise sharply, and the British troops who were originally stationed on the plain outside the city of Duwana had to retreat a little outside and moved to the high ground near the left.

Charlie lowered his head and looked at the documents passed by New Delhi, and now he knows that the armed rebel forces in Chhansi Pradesh seem to have all disappeared, and he will not be naïve to think that it is his strong charm and strong force that make these armed rebels give up armed action, there are probably two possibilities, "One is afraid of our military strength this time, and I am afraid in my heart, so I will hide and watch the wind for the time being," Charlie said, he raised his head and looked at the torrential rain outside the camp, The rain continued to fall like silk threads, blocking people's vision, and the outline of the city of Dewana not far away was a little blurred, "Another possibility is that they all hid in the city of Dewana, thinking of relying on this wall to concentrate their forces on fighting us." ”

"This is impossible," said the clerk from the side, "Honorable General Charles, it is impossible to give them such a chance, and they will no longer be able to hold on to the walls for as long as they can, they do not have the strength to hold on!" ”

After being cleaned up by Charlie a few days ago, this clerical officer sent by Governor Marbury to assist in name but in fact there may be a situation of supervision and surveillance, is now much more honest, and he also echoed Charlie's words, Charlie remained silent, "Now in the case of heavy rain, I don't know how long they can hold out, but I want to make sure that we can continue to persevere, may I ask you, are our logistics materials ready?" ”

Charlie asked this question, and the clerk hurriedly said, "There is no problem at all, we have prepared all kinds of food and grain and grass, both inside and outside Chhansip, we have already given orders, and sent soldiers to collect food everywhere to ensure that there will be no problems with our military supplies, and some consumables have been brought over before, even if the entire city of Dewana is soaked in the flood, we will not have any shortage of food or materials, I can guarantee this, Lord Charlie." ”

Charlie nodded, "That's fine, then I believe that the people of Chhansi will definitely not be able to survive us, although it is a rainy day, they must also be thinking of using the rainy season to dispel our idea of attacking, but this is impossible, with abundant supplies, we can hold on more than them, and," he smiled slightly, showing the confidence that the overall situation is under control, "Now that the rainy season has just begun, we can stay and rest for a few days, and then, even if it rains all the time, we can't continue to stay." ”

Outside the tent, the footsteps and shouts of waiting for drills sounded, and the clerk cautiously put forward his opinion: "Please allow me to say a few more words, if you drill soldiers on a rainy day, there should be some people who will complain, right?" ”

"They are all the best soldiers in our empire, and this little rain is nothing." Charlie said indifferently, "They understand their duty, now we are practicing in the torrential rain, and it is also a deterrent to those Tianzhu people in the city of Duwana in Champang, we are ready and at all costs, we need to achieve the goal, with all due respect, the original heroic soldiers have lived a very depraved life in such a rich place as Tianzhu, and there is no heroic invincibility in the Boer region or North Africa." ”

The clerical officer stopped talking, he continued to bow his head and deal with his paperwork, Charlie looked at the city of Devana in the rain, this time the expedition, it seems that it was not so smooth, he still believes that a smooth beginning is half the success of the proverb, the army directly attacked the city of Devana, and the people of Zhanxi Bang were prepared, which is not unusual, but they are so well prepared that they can even defeat their first tentative attack, which is a little unbelievable, Charlie still thinks now, The combat effectiveness of the natives is not worth mentioning at all.

Then why does he feel something is not right, Charlie is a very cautious person, he feels that there is something wrong with the traitors in the city of Devana in front of him, but it doesn't matter, he is also ready, "Tomorrow morning will start attacking the city again!" "We've been waiting for two or three days, and we're going to try to see if they're ready to fight us for a long time." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion outside, with the sound of gongs and drums and shouts of killing, and the clerk stood up, rushed out of the tent, and then ran back, with rain on his forehead and shoulders, and said loudly to Charlie, "The traitors in the city of Devana have rushed out!" ”

"They are not small," the clerk's face was excited, but Charlie's expression was unmoved, "Knowing that it is raining to attack us, it is obvious that they have an idea," Charlie sneered slightly, "but I can't let them storm our tent." ”

"Looking at the route of their new army just now, it seems that they want to flee somewhere else! It's not trying to shock us! ”

"Then it's impossible to let them go," Charlie thought a little wrong about the actions of these people in Chhansipong, they didn't come to sneak attack, but wanted to escape, what did they do when they escaped? It was hard to imagine, and he immediately ordered, "Get ready, strike right away!" ”

Standing on the city wall, with only a raincoat draped over his body, the prince of Jhansi watched as the group of soldiers galloped out, but was stopped by the British, and the two sides began to fight again.
