Because it is necessary to lay an outpost position, it will also be a logistics base for all kinds of armies. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoTherefore, the first target of the three-way army is invariably aimed at the third-level county seat.

The target of the Northern Route Army was Hengshan County, a third-level county town located in the northwest of Leizhou; The target of the Middle Route Army is Leishan County, a third-level county seat located in the middle of Leizhou; The target of the Southern Route Army was Hai'an County, a third-level coastal county located in the southernmost part of Leizhou.

In this way, three of the five third-level county towns will be removed, and it will be like gnawing the hardest bone.

The most important thing is that the three selected county towns are all located on the edge of Leizhou, and after the army lands, there is no need to make a detour, and they can directly attack the territory. Otherwise, Bai Qi would rather choose the second-level county seat on the border.

The lonely army is deep, but it is a taboo for soldiers.

The plan was decided, and the army immediately set out.

On 15 May, the Praetorian Division, as the vanguard force, took the lead in the expedition.

Bai Qi, as the commander of the whole army, set off with the Praetorian Guard Division. And Ouyang Shuo, after seeing off the army in Beihai Port, immediately returned to Shanhai City.

As a lord, he has his own duties.

At this moment, Ouyang Shuo is sitting in Shanhai City, which is the most important thing. With him personally in charge, it is enough to stabilize the hearts of the army and the people, and the young people do not dare to act rashly.

Beihai Port is still a voyage away from the central part of Leizhou.

On 18 May, the first formation of the North Gulf Fleet arrived at its intended destination. The fleet was docked at a place called Black Earth Harbor, and there were no troops stationed nearby, except for a small fishing village.

As early as a week ago, this small fishing village of three or four hundred people was investigated by the Black Snake Guard. The village is populated entirely by NPC fishermen, and there are no players staying there.

In order to prevent adventure players from accidentally breaking into the fishing village, the Quanzhou Intelligence Station also specially arranged for a snake guard to be stationed here. Therefore, the fleet will be relieved to dock here.

Ancient warships were not just looking for a place to dock, they had to have a harbor. Otherwise, it is very easy to run aground, especially for a giant warship like the Lou Ship.

After the fleet landed, the Praetorian Division landed and quietly went ashore.

In addition to the large army, countless siege equipment and food and grass materials had to be unloaded.

It was busy until noon, and the unloading was completed. The fleet will return to the ship, and the fleet will then be responsible for transporting the 4th Division of the Longxiang Army led by Mu Guiying to the second predetermined destination in the north of Leizhou.

At the three landing sites in the south, south, and central, the Black Snake Guard made careful arrangements.

The Black Snake has given a death order, and it must show the value of the Black Snake Guard in the Battle of Leizhou.

After the army was assembled, they repaired on the spot in the fishing village for a day. Most of the non-commissioned officers in the army were on a boat for the first time, and their bodies were inevitably a little unwell, and they really couldn't go into battle immediately.

In addition, it is the war horses that were transported with the fleet.

Compared with the soldiers, the green worm horses are more precious, and the road is bumpy, and these war horses have to rest well.

The small fishing village became the temporary station of the Praetorian Division. As for the villagers in the fishing villages, they were naturally kept under centralized detention to prevent them from ventilating and reporting the news.

The army rests, there is a unit, but it can't rest, they are the scout squadrons directly under the division.

Under the leadership of the squadron leader, all the scouts were dispatched and secretly advanced towards Leishan County.

Their task was, firstly, to determine a specific route of march, and secondly, to remove "obstacles" along the road.

After all, the Military Intelligence Department has only been active in Leizhou for half a month, and it can only reconnoiter the large terrain and landforms, and when it comes to the terrain and landforms of a certain place, each division and regiment needs to be responsible for the reconnaissance on its own.

The first day of the Battle of Leizhou was spent in peace.

Leishan County, hundreds of kilometers away, had no idea that a large army had sneaked under their noses.

The next morning, the army that had been repaired for a day and a night was refreshed.

The real war has just begun.

Early in the morning, as soon as the army was assembled, they didn't make any stop at all, and the soldiers rode the green worm war horses that had recovered their vitality, and directly began to march rapidly, rushing towards the county seat of Leishan.

At this time, one more moment of delay will be more dangerous.

The most difficult thing was the transportation of siege equipment.

These big guys are powerful, and transportation is a big problem.

Bai Qi made a quick decision, leaving two battalions to escort the siege equipment, and the main force continued to rush forward and march towards Leishan County.

In the early morning in Leizhou, the morning fog was shrouded and the humidity was extremely heavy.

Through the morning light and the morning mist, the Praetorian Division, under the guidance of the scouts, was like a ghost, moving swiftly and quickly, like an agile and elegant civet.

Bai Qi used soldiers, and never adhered to the common law.

In Bai Qi's opinion, in order to catch the opponent by surprise, it is necessary to send a vanguard force to take the city gate directly before the enemy can react, so as to avoid a hard-fought siege battle.

If a large army is dispatched together, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves alone is enough to alarm the enemy. Therefore, the vanguard can only be a small force, with a battalion being the most suitable.

With the strength of a battalion, taking the gate of a third-level county town, although it is a surprise attack, it is also a task that seems not almost impossible to complete.

The chips in Bai Qi's hands are the invincible elite soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Division. These soldiers, but the elite soldiers of a hundred battles carefully selected from various master regiments, are all regarded as five.

Have confidence in them.

After Bai Qi finished speaking, Lin Yi, the commander of the division, took the initiative to ask.

"Dashuai, the last general is willing to go!"

When Bai Qi heard this, he immediately made a decision and said, "Okay, you will lead the personal guard battalion as the vanguard of the whole army." The 1st Brigade served as the front army, which followed suit. Ben Shuai led the rest of the army and was responsible for pressing the rear. ”

The Guards Battalion, one of the most elite battalions in the Praetorian Division, has no more suitable vanguard than it. The young general Lin Yi is also a rare fierce general.

Adding the two, Bai Qi is naturally full of confidence.

"Xie Dashuai!"

Lin Yi saluted, turned on his horse, took the personal guard battalion, broke away from the large army, and accelerated away.

They were followed by the 1st Brigade of the Praetorian Division, whose task was to ensure that reinforcements could arrive in time after the vanguard took the city gates.

Otherwise, everything will be lost.

The entire army, under the command of Bai Qi, is interlocking and responding to each other.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, when Lin Yi led the personal guard battalion, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, suddenly appeared near the gate of Leishan County, the other party did not react at all.

The guards at the city gate thought it was their own troops returning from patrolling.

It wasn't until the guard battalion was less than five hundred meters away from the city gate, and the shiny bright light armor made the city gate guards realize that this was an enemy army.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! The guard shouted.

The originally peaceful city gate suddenly boiled. The people who were still queuing up to enter the city suddenly became a pot of porridge, you pushed me, I pushed you, desperately squeezing into the city.

"Close the gates, close the gates!"

The city gate guard, a middle-aged general, immediately ordered the city gate to be closed when he saw this.

"General, the city gate is blocked by the people, and it can't be closed at all!"

"Get rid of them, or you'll be killed!"

The general's face turned cold instantly, if the city gate was lost, his head would fall to the ground, and at this time, there would be no room for any mercy.

"No!"

The sergeant was also resolute and immediately gave the order.

"Archer prepare!"

The general was not yet at ease and ordered the archers guarding the walls to prepare.

"No!"

As soon as the military ordered, the city gate became more and more chaotic.

At first, the guards tried to disperse the people, saying that the enemy's target was the city gate, and that they would not harm the people, so they would stay outside the city gate.

But the people didn't listen at all, and rushed into the city.

Seeing this scene, the guards had no choice but to wave the butcher knife.

"Ah, murder, sergeant murder!"

At this moment, the city gate exploded even more.

Deterred by this, some people were scared and really began to evacuate.

Just as the guards were about to clear the city gate and prepare to pull up the drawbridge, the guard battalion had already arrived.

The distance of five hundred meters is nothing more than a matter of charge.

"Guard battalion, charge!"

Lin Yi pulled out the Tang knife and ran at the front of the team.

"Kill!"

The personal guard camp does not care about the life or death of the people, no matter who it is, but anyone who stands in the way will be killed. At this time, they are in a race against time, and they cannot tolerate half a minute of delay and mercy.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows! Don't let them rush over! ”

The city gate guards were shocked when they saw the might of the enemy's army, how could there be such an elite division?!

Praetorian Division, Iron Division.

The guard battalion, the steel of steel.

Under the leadership of Lin Yi, the warriors were like a rock, regarded the rain of arrows as nothing, and with iron discipline, they firmly rushed towards the city gate, and no one could stop their iron hooves.

Finally, at the last moment when the city gate was about to close, Lin Yi led his troops to arrive.

"Kill!"

Lin Yi pulled out the Tang knife, and the sound spread to the four fields, and the knife flashed, and the head fell to the ground.

"Kill!"

In the shadow of the sword and sword, it is the blood of men.

Under the collision of passion, it is the glory of the warrior.

In less than five minutes, hundreds of guards at the city gate were slaughtered by the personal guard camp, and none of them survived.

The Guards Battalion has succeeded in taking down the city gates!

"Cut the rope!"

After taking the city gate, Lin Yi was still as calm as ever.

"No!"

"Can't let them cut the ropes, city guard camp, go with me and kill each other!" The gate keeper was also a ruthless character, and immediately led the guards down the city wall to prepare for the battle.

"Mole ants!"

Seeing the other party rushing towards him, Lin Yi looked disdainful, waved his right hand, and said coldly: "Hack them to death!" ”

"No!"

Five hundred guards, facing more than 1,000 city gate guards, there is no fear.

As soon as the troops were short-handed, the huge gap between the two sides was manifested. How is the ordinary city guard army the opponent of the pro-guard battalion of the Praetorian Guard Division.

The city guards were beaten and retreated, and corpses were blocked at the gates of the city, and they were scattered everywhere.

Lin Yi did not participate in this killing, he rode on his war horse and looked into the distance. I saw that on the horizon in the distance, a large army came with thunder.

Under the sunlight, it emits an unobstructed golden light.

The 1st Brigade of the Praetorian Guards Division finally arrived in time! (To be continued.) )
