Chapter 426: Under the Boundary Town

Mobile reading

"Who's under the city?" Someone shouted loudly at the head of the city, Zhao Siwen looked up, and there were several people standing next to the city tower above the city gate, and they were nervously staring at the mighty army that was driving towards the city gate at the city gate. At this moment, there was a faint figure on the city wall swaying between the battlements, and from the tips of many spears exposed above, it could be seen that many people were hiding behind.

"Listen to the defenders of Jiezhen," Zhao Siwen hurriedly shouted at the head of the city, "We are the vanguard of the Southern Expedition of Annan, and we have come to take over the defense of Jiezhen on the orders of General Zhao Ximin. ”

"Annan? Which Annan are you? Who is your manager? The people at the head of the city were very nervous and shouted downward, but except occasionally poking their heads down, the shouters never stuck their heads out and looked down.

"Which other Annan could it be?" Zhao Siwen was a little angry, "Can't you understand Shuai Qi?" My commander is General Zhao Ximin, don't hurry up and open the city, I have just won a big victory, and recently killed thousands of people in the south, and now I will return to Jiezhen to rest, and I will continue the southern expedition in the near future! ”

"Just blow it!" The voice at the head of the city continued with some playfulness, "Although we haven't left the boundary town, we still know the situation outside, your current soldiers are all holding firearms, they must all be pretending to be Nan Rebellion, we just killed 4,000 Nan Rebellion who pretended to be our army not long ago, and our head has just been sent across the Boundary River!" ”

"Kill four thousand?" An officer beside Zhao Siwen couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "That's it?" Can you kill four thousand? ”

"Humph! Don't try to deceive us! The head of the city continued to say loudly, "They pretended to be veterans who came back from the streamlining of our Heavenly Army, and they were all killed by us in the camp if they left their fathers and sons!" Now that you've sent your head to report your merits, you still want to lie to me and wait? ”

"What?" Zhao Siwen's heart felt as if he had been smashed with a stone, and he suddenly understood the meaning of the so-called fake Northern Army, this group of beheaded people was the fake Northern Army, and the group of soldiers under the city were from the same army. It was not long after Zhao Ximin seized power that he repatriated the old, weak, sick and disabled by streamlining the troops of the Northern Army, and let them go back to Jiezhen to wait for their main force to return and then repatriate. Who knew that this group of pigs in Jiezhen would directly kill these old, weak, sick and disabled people as enemies, and they all cut off their heads and sent them back to show their merits.

"Listen to me, turn around, and take two hundred steps back!" Zhao Siwen hurriedly issued an order, and the soldiers looked puzzled, they didn't understand what the words shouted at the head of the city meant, but now that they heard the order, of course, they immediately turned around according to the order, and then stepped away.

"What's going on?" Seeing this situation, Zhao Ximin looked puzzled and asked Zhao Siwen, who reported the situation to Zhao Ximin with a sad and angry face.

"So that's it?" Zhao Ximin stroked his beard and groaned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Ma Xiang and asked, "I wonder what General Ma thinks?" ”

Ma Xiang was confused, he didn't know what was going on, where could he get his opinion? He had no choice but to look at Zhao Siwen. Zhao Siwen hurriedly explained the cause and effect of this incident to Ma Xiang, and Ma Xiang immediately jumped up, "Isn't this a bastard?" When you kill an enemy, you can escape faster than the enemy, and you don't show any mercy when you see your own people using knives! It's too lacking! ”

"And what do you think?" Zhao Siwen hurriedly asked, but Ma Xiang waved his hand and said, "Don't ask me about this matter, this is the internal affairs of the Northern Army itself, and we have no right to interfere." As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Ximin, who was standing in the distance.

Zhao Ximin didn't speak at the moment, his eyes were blurred, and pictures flashed in his mind, when he fought bravely under Ruan Phuc Yuan, he bravely moved forward and won the position of commander-in-chief of the South Bank Army for him, but then he became arrogant, relying on the power in his hands to become the emperor of the soil in this town. Later, when the new emperor overthrew Nguyen Phuc Nguyen, not only did he not take the lead in defending his own source of power, Nguyen Phuc Nguyen, but immediately said that Yi Zhi would follow the new emperor. This choice caused Ito Otazo, who was loyal to the emperor, to lead tens of thousands of his men to leave overnight, not only taking almost all the supplies with him, but also burning down the remaining materials along with the houses, and even destroying the water supply channels in the paddy fields, causing the Nan'an Army to suffer heavy material losses.

His retribution was imminent, and the new emperor's will soon came to lead the entire South Coast Army to attack the port of Champa where the former emperor Nguyen Phuc Nguyen Yuan was located. Along with the new emperor's will came the main force of the land war of the Maidno people, and under Russell's drive, the 100,000-strong army of the South Shore Army had to leave the boundary town he had painstakingly managed and went to attack the port of Champong. Subsequently, the South Shore Army suffered a crushing defeat in the attack on the port of Zhancheng, and Zhao Ximin not only lost almost all the main forces of the South Shore Army, but also lost all the supplies. Having lost almost everything, he frantically gathered his rout, finally gathered thousands of people, and then took this group of people to defect to North Annan.

What he didn't expect was that for a general like himself, North Annan not only did not welcome him, but also scattered all his troops and scattered them into various units, and at the same time, he directly organized the soldiers of the South Bank Army into a cannon fodder regiment and sent them to the front line of forcibly crossing the boundary river to attack Champa Port, and almost lost everything in the battle. All the generals of the Northern Army have only one opinion about him, that is, contempt, and the insults and attacks on him have never stopped, and this is led by the commander of the Northern Army, which makes him angry almost from the beginning but has no choice but to endure the humiliation and continue to move forward. Due to the suddenness of the attack of the Northern Army, neither the Medenor nor the Southern Annan could have anticipated this offensive operation, so at the beginning of the North-South War, the Southern Army was defeated one after another, and the Northern Army attacked the city and plundered the land all the way, and its contempt for the Southern Army was even more overflowing. And he, who was once the commander of the strongest unit of the Southern Army, naturally became the object of everyone's contempt, and even ordinary soldiers were able to insult him.

The arrogance of the Northern Army was soon retributed, and in the Battle of the Valley, the Southern Army defeated the Northern Army, which was several times its size, head-on with new tactics and new weapons, completely disintegrating the offensive of the Northern Army. The defeated and fleeing Northern Army was disgraced all the way, and forwarded their anger to Zhao Ximin, and many generals scolded him at the military council, and some even beat him. In the end, he finally found an opportunity to sweep away the commanders of the Northern Army and replace them himself through a coup d'Γ©tat. In order to ensure his command, he carried out a reorganization and streamlining of the Northern Army with the help of Zhao Siwen, and then defeated the Southern Army that followed all the way with the reorganized elite soldiers and the new rifles obtained from the Chinese, and finally regained the initiative.

The ship is not a science department, and the war is far away

At this moment, he originally followed Ma Xiang's suggestion to find a place to rest, he knew that this place was very close to Jiezhen, so he led these thousands of elite soldiers to Jiezhen, wanting to rest here for a few days, and then attack the main force of the Southern Army, but at this moment, he got the news that the soldiers who had been streamlined before were killed.

He was still pondering, but suddenly he heard a wail in his ear, "O my son! "Brother!" "My child was killed by them!"

Knot far from Keku, Sun Cha, Zhan Yue, Ji Ku, pick-up

Zhao Siwen was also stunned, and hurriedly ran over, only to know that more than ten heads were thrown down from the city just now, and the soldiers originally planned to pick them up to report their merits, but soon some soldiers found that these distorted faces were very familiar, and when they looked closely, they turned out to be their relatives, and they couldn't help crying loudly one by one. The unknown soldiers hurriedly asked their comrades-in-arms, and only then did they learn about such a thing, thinking that their relatives or friends had only been streamlined and sent back to Jiezhen. Originally, they thought that this would keep them away from the battlefield and danger, but when they saw these heads, they were like ashes, and they cried loudly, and many of them even cried so much that they went straight away, and the whole team was in chaos for a while.

What he didn't expect was that for a general like himself, Bei Annan not only did not welcome him, but also scattered all his troops and scattered them into various units, and at the same time, the soldiers of the South Bank Army who were collected later were directly organized into cannon fodder regiments and sent to the front line of the forced crossing of the Jiehe River to attack the port of Zhancheng, and they were almost lost in the battle. All the generals of the Northern Army have only one opinion about him, that is, contempt, and the insults and attacks on him have never stopped, and this is led by the commander of the Northern Army, which makes him angry almost from the beginning but has no choice but to endure the humiliation and continue to move forward. Due to the suddenness of the attack of the Northern Army, neither the Medenor nor the Southern Annan could have anticipated this offensive operation, so at the beginning of the North-South War, the Southern Army was defeated one after another, and the Northern Army attacked the city and plundered the land all the way, and its contempt for the Southern Army was even more overflowing. And he, who was once the commander of the strongest unit of the Southern Army, naturally became the object of everyone's contempt, and even ordinary soldiers were able to insult him.

"What to do? Checkmate! Zhao Siwen is also a little busy at the moment, although he has served as a middle-level officer in the South Bank Army, but now Zhao Ximin is still in a daze, but the soldiers are already in a mess, if they are not dealt with in time, who knows what will happen next. But Zhao Ximin still stood there and didn't know what to do, at the same time, there was a sudden rush of drumming on the city tower, Zhao Siwen put his hand on the pergola and looked over, and several generals dressed in big hats on the city tower in the distance came out, standing at the head of the city and shouting triumphantly to this side, "The south under the city!" You and the orthodox enemy of my Annan should have been incompatible, but at this moment, my general has good intentions for you and others, and allows you and others to surrender, as long as you hand over a firearm, you will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and those who kill Shangguan who come to surrender will be rewarded with three taels of silver! Those who lead more than 100 people to surrender will be rewarded with five taels of silver and raise a small flag! ”

Before the people at the head of the city finished speaking, Zhao Siwen heard the soldiers around him clamoring one by one, "Descend your mother!" "Kill my son and still want me to surrender?" "Die! Fight! "It's the other way around!"

With that sentence reversed, the soldiers' voices stopped abruptly, and everyone stood there quietly, turning their heads to look at Zhao Ximin behind them, but the backbone of the army still did not move, just continued to be there in a daze.

"It's the other way around!" With the roar of a soldier, "Lao Tzu is a younger brother, and he was killed by them!" Reverse it! The big deal is death! As he spoke, he untied the rifle beside him, pulled a bullet out of his pocket, and began to reload it into it. The soldiers next to him did the same, unfastening their rifles and starting to reload.

Broken! Ma Xiang only had this one thought in his head, he knew better than anyone else that at this moment, whether it was at the head of the city or outside the city, the two sides were actually opposing the Northern Army, but the side where he was had been abandoned by the group in the city. Now, if the soldiers really start with the defenders of Jie Town, it will be a rebellion of the Northern Army. Not long ago, he encountered a rebellion by the Foreign Legion, and as a result, he was going to encounter the rebellion of the Northern Army here, did he have a relationship with the rebels? But after thinking about it, the Northern Army actually has nothing to do with China, the Northern Army ignored the Chinese and the Maidno people, and took the initiative to launch an attack on South Annan, and the current battle between the North and the South is actually a dog-eat-dog war to put it bluntly, and Ma Xiang, as a military observer of the Chinese, originally came to see the play, and by the way, let the Maidno people suffer a loss, and it is best to beat their dog brains out. But now that the Northern Army is in civil strife, he is completely unsure of what consequences this will have for the Chinese to intervene in Annan.

There is no bottom, but one thing is for sure is that the group of northern troops in front of them is now a standard mourning soldier, and they who are swayed by emotions cannot listen to any domineering pride and righteousness at the moment, he only has two choices, either to help them capture Jiezhen, or to turn around and leave.

It was very simple to turn around and leave, originally there were only a few field agents in the Northern Army plus a dozen or so special reconnaissance members of his detachment, and when the next fight started, the battlefield was chaotic, and he could leave immediately. But he knew better than anyone else that he couldn't go. The Senate provided a large number of materials and weapons to Zhao Ximin's army this time, which were all things that could be exchanged for real money. Zhao Ximin, who was short of money, drew a blank check, saying that he would cash it out after defeating the Southern Army, so the money for these weapons and materials could not be collected at all, and even the cost was still a long way, and it was of course very simple to go by himself, but the money was thrown into the water. New China is an economic supremacy country, nothing will make the patriarchs more heartbroken than material losses, he lost several "future weapons" during the Shabak Rebellion for the patriarchs for months, and now if this investment is in vain, then Ma Xiang knows that he has no chance to turn over in his life, and he can only die alone in the "Zongren Mansion" in the future. Then there is only one multiple-choice question in the current situation, and it is necessary to help Zhao Ximin's army capture Jiezhen.

The post-science department is not a discipline of complex surgery

"Zhao Siwen! Assemble your troops! We are ready to attack the city! Ma Xiang shouted loudly, Zhao Siwen was stunned, turned his head to look, Ma Xiang was wearing weapons, and at the same time beckoning the troops behind him, "Machine gun!" Hurry up and bring up the machine gun! Get ready for the siege! ”

The officers at the head of the city could not help but be stunned, and the group of soldiers in front of them, who were not much different from themselves, seemed to be a different person at this moment, and they began to form a group under the command of the officer, and in the middle of the group, six or seven men carried a black thing in the direction of the city wall, and they ran to a distance of two hundred paces, and put the strange four-legged thing on the ground, and then someone carried the large boxes one by one to the side of the monster, and then the boxes were opened, The soldiers rushed forward and surrounded the boxes, and in a short time they laid out long black strips, not knowing what they were used for. Soon the soldiers dispersed, and several men stepped forward, grabbed the monster's tail, pointed their heads towards themselves, and finally turned their heads to look in the direction of their officers.
