In the afternoon of the next day, the gunfire of the guards in Ningxia Town gradually subsided. After nearly a day and a night of fierce fighting, the Northwest Field Army completely conquered Ningxia Town, a nine-sided military town of the Ming Dynasty.

Because the Northwest Field Army was well-planned and chose to attack at midnight, the suddenness of the battle was achieved, so except for a small number of stubborn Ming troops who were killed,

Most of the remaining Ming troops fled to the nearby military towns of Yansui, Gansu and Guyuan while it was dark, and those who did not have time to escape were captured by the Far Eastern Army.

A large number of wagons and horses, following the footsteps of the attacking troops, entered the main town and town of Ningxia Town, and the guard station, wantonly collected all kinds of materials, and transported them to the banks of the Yellow River day and night, and then loaded them by the displaced people waiting here.

Before the war, the Far Eastern Intelligence Department had already deployed a large number of men at various important targets and led the participating units to occupy various targets, and the attacking troops had undergone several drills before the war, and the commanders at all levels had a detailed map provided by the Intelligence Department, so the efficiency of the troops was very high.

Each unit was followed by a logistical support brigade composed of displaced people, equipped with a large number of wagons and trolleys, and whenever a target was overcome, a large number of displaced people began to be commanded by special personnel, quickly gathered supplies, and then transported to the banks of the Yellow River.

Li Ming's airship landed outside the town of Ningxia Town, and he and Chief of Staff Shang Ming and others walked down from the pod and led him into the town of Ningxia Town.

At this time, the town of Ningxia Town was full of a hot scene, four-wheeled carriages in and out were endless, and a logistics support brigade composed of a large number of displaced people was desperately busy in the city, scraping the ground and collecting all kinds of materials.

Wang Yaowu introduced Li Ming with a smile: "Yesterday's battle was relatively smooth, but when the assault troops first entered the city, they encountered some decent resistance. But it was immediately routed, and the rest of the battle was basically to receive prisoners. Qingwangfu wanted to defend to the death, but our infantry artillery fired two shots and collapsed directly. The Ming army couldn't help fighting, and it was rotten from top to bottom. ”

Gao Qiang also smiled and said, "Commander, King Qing and the family members of the palace." There are also civil officials and military generals at all levels in the town and the eunuchs guarding the town, all of whom are locked up by us in the Qingwang Mansion, don't you want to take a look. Zhou Billy went to Qingwangfu as soon as he arrived, and he didn't know what this guy wanted to do. ”

Li Ming shook his head and said, "I won't go, order the troops not to hurt them, and when the troops leave, let them all go." I guess Lao Zhou went to contact them, and he definitely didn't have any good intentions, hehe...... Let's leave it alone. Let him do it, this guy won't let us down anyway. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard Li Ming's words. Although the company's impression of Billy Zhou is average, everyone has to admit that this guy is really powerful, and his contribution to the company is also great, although the means are sometimes a little darker, but the effect is very effective.

Li Ming thought for a moment and said, "Is there any movement of the Ming army in the direction of Guyuan?" ”

Wang Yaowu shook his head and said, "The Hetao guerrilla detachment and three cavalry battalions are being deployed in Weizhou. The Ming army in the direction of Guyuan was monitored, and at the moment the Ming army in Shaanxi was only consolidating the border wall. Strengthen the defensive lines of Yansui, Gansu and Guyuan. However, they sent out a lot of nights, and some of them were wiped out by our cavalry, and they never dared to come again. ”

Li Ming nodded and said, "Order all troops to gather supplies as soon as possible, and strive to withdraw from Ningxia Town within five days." Another thing is to do a good job in the ideological work of the prisoners of the Ming army and the military households in Ningxia Town, and bring them back to the Hetao base area when we evacuate. ”

Zhao Lianhe and a group of border troops in Zhenyuanguan. They were sent to a makeshift prisoner of war camp on the west bank of the Yellow River and imprisoned, most of whom were military households who only knew how to farm, but were actually serfs from the heads of the guards. The generals of the Ming Dynasty were not locked up with ordinary Ming troops, and they were detained alone in the barracks of several acropolis.

Zhao Lianhe looked at the camp full of border army prisoners from Ningxia Town, and he couldn't believe his eyes. Could it be that the huge town of Ningxia, a day and a night's hard work, was taken down by this gang of thieves.

But when he thought of the few heroes who fell from the sky last night, Zhao Lianhe could only shake his head with a wry smile. These thieves can come down from the sky without knowing it, and it is really nothing to break Ningxia Town overnight.

He saw a few border troops stationed in the main town, and hurriedly walked over and asked, "Lao Li, aren't you in the town?" Has the town been broken by thieves too? ”

A stout border soldier saw Zhao Lianhe, and said with a sad face: "Don't mention it, last night the beacon smoke was lit, and our brothers all went up to the city wall of the town, and before they ran to the place, they heard a loud noise, the movement was so big, I still have buzzing in my ears." I don't know what kind of gunpowder the thieves used, the gate of the town was blown open at once, and most of the 100 old brothers who could fight at the city gate were killed on the spot, and the rest were also stupid.

The thieves rushed directly into the city, and the brothers in the city desperately tried to block the thieves, but the thieves' firearms were very fierce, and the medicine was sprinkled like rain. There are also dense iron bumps smashed over, and they sound when they hit the ground, and they die next to each other.

Our firecracker hasn't been ignited yet, and the hundreds of most capable old brothers are all dead, and everyone looks at this formation, throwing down the guy and running, paralyzed, this is a special fart. I still don't know where these thieves came from. By the way, Lao Zhao, aren't you in Zhenyuan Pass? ”

The group of people around Zhao Lianhe were happy. A border soldier teased: "Lao Zhao said that these thieves came down from the sky......

When the border army of the main town on the opposite side heard this, they were immediately stunned. Hurriedly asked, "Lao Zhao, tell me what's going on." ”

Zhao Lianhe had to smile bitterly and tell everyone about last night's experience again, but he was ridiculed again. made Zhao Lianhe so aggrieved.

At this time, there was an exclamation in the distance, and Zhao Lianhe and the others also turned to look over there. A border soldier suddenly pointed into the air and shouted, "My mother, what is this......"

Everyone also looked up into the air, and saw several behemoths slowly flying over their heads. scared a group of border soldiers in Ningxia Town so much that they almost sat on the ground.

For the people of this era, the huge airship is to them what the people of modern society see flying saucers. Enough to subvert their worldview.

Zhao Lianhe shook his head and said: "You see, this gang of thieves came down from these big guys, and before Lao Tzu could react, he was put on the head by the fire gun." Now you should trust me. (To be continued.) )
