Chapter 396: Leizhou Changed Hands
Cao Di's self-confidence did not last long. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In less than half an hour, the herald ran over in a panic and said with a pale face: "General, no, the enemy's reinforcements have entered the city!" ”
"What?"
Cao Di was shocked, and when his body shook, he was about to stand unsteadily.
His face instantly became hideous, and he stepped forward quickly, grabbed the herald by the collar, and said sharply, "Nonsense." The gates were guarded by 2,000 troops, how could they be breached so quickly? If you dare to fake military information, I will kill you! As he spoke, he drew his sword from his waist.
The poor herald was frightened by Cao Di's hideous expression, and his collar was so strangled that he was almost out of breath. His heart trembled, it's over, now he is going to die at the hands of the general.
"General, General!"
Fortunately, the guards arrived in time and saved the life of the herald.
Cao Di was startled, but finally came to his senses a little, he tried his best to keep himself calm, and asked in a deep voice with a slightly trembling voice: "Say, how was the city gate breached?" ”
The herald took two quick breaths, and his flushed face turned slightly. He glanced at Cao Di with apprehension, and said cautiously: "The enemy has already ambushed a force at the city gate, and the city gate defenders were taken by surprise. The two sides joined forces, and the gates were soon breached. ”
The ambush of the defenders of the city gate was none other than the five hundred elites led by Zhao Yan.
Last night, Zhao Yan led his troops and secretly lurked in the houses near the city gate. As soon as the army led by Luo Shixin arrived, they immediately rushed out and defeated the 2,000 defenders of the city gate.
"Ambush?"
Cao Di is so smart, he can figure out the cause and effect of the matter at once.
"I'm careless!"
Cao Di didn't expect that in such a desperate situation, the enemy army would ambush a surprise soldier in advance. In this battle, he Cao Di was defeated, and he was completely defeated.
The huge frustration made Cao Di seem depressed.
"General, what now?"
"What should I do?" Cao Di muttered to himself, and after a long time, he struggled to squeeze out a few words: "Surrender!" ”
Cao Di didn't want the soldiers to bury their lives in vain, and there was no point in continuing to fight.
On the city tower, there was a sudden silence.
Falling from heaven to hell is a feeling that is never pleasant.
A moment ago, they were still in sight of victory; The next moment, he will be reduced to a prisoner.
"Surrender!"
Cao Di said it again, but his tone was much firmer.
Lord, Cao Di has a negative trust!
A hint of death flashed in Cao Di's eyes.
**********
When the rumbling sound of horses' hooves resounded on the commercial street, it was a nightmare for the Allied forces that were storming.
The slaughtering iron cavalry rushed from behind at high speed, and immediately the man turned on his back.
In an instant, the Allies suffered heavy losses.
Fortunately, this nightmare came and went quickly.
In less than ten minutes, the white flag of surrender was hoisted at the head of the city. The allied soldiers hurriedly threw away the weapons in their hands as if they were ghosts, for fear of being killed by this group of demons by mistake.
Compared with the bleakness of the allies, the position of the Southern Route Army was naturally a carnival.
They did, and under the onslaught of 50,000 troops, they finally held out until reinforcements arrived.
The 1st Division of the Tiger Ben Regiment is worthy of its glory.
After the revelry, there is a great sense of exhaustion and sleepiness. In order to prevent the enemy's night attack, the soldiers have not slept well for two days and two nights.
Some of the soldiers, ignoring the bloodshed of the battlefield, fell asleep.
The corpses of the battlefield were used as pillows by the soldiers.
When Luo Shixin led his troops to arrive, he saw such a strange scene.
**********
With the surrender of the Allied forces, the battle of Tanmu County ended in the victory of Shanhai City.
Fan Lihua stood on the ruined battlefield, but there was no trace of the joy of a victor on her face.
This victory was not easy to come by.
In this battle, the first division of the Huben Regiment lost more than 3,000 soldiers, including a brigade commander and six battalion commanders. If you include the wounded, the casualty rate is close to a third.
This is the first time that a brigade commander has been killed since Shanhai City became an army.
The losses are not uncatastrophic.
The brigade commander who died was Li Mingliang, the brigade commander of the cavalry brigade of the 1st Division.
Li Mingliang is also a veteran of Shanhai City, since the time of Shanhai Village, he has been valued by Ouyang Shuo, and has been promoted all the way, from the fire commander to the team leader, then to the battalion leader, and finally promoted to the brigade commander.
never thought that he would fall forever on the battlefield in Tanmu County.
The atmosphere of the battlefield seemed a little depressing.
Seeing this, Luo Shixin led his department and took the initiative to take over the work of taking prisoners of war.
Of the more than 50,000 Allied troops, only more than 30,000 survived in the end, and some of them were seriously wounded and must be retired. At the end of the battle, no less than a thousand people were executed by the Overseers.
This battle was really tragic.
Fan Lihua is also a strong female general, and after a little sadness, she recovered.
Take prisoners of war, treat the wounded, and clean up the battlefield......
In addition to this, there is the completion of the occupation of Tanmu County, the restoration of order in Tanmu County, and the imposition of military control over Tanmu County, and so on.
The post-war work was very complicated and fragmented.
The lord of Tanmu County broke the table, and when Luo Shixin's army entered the city, he directly abandoned the city and fled.
The most heavyweight prisoner of war is naturally Cao Di.
Taking the time, Fan Lihua went to see Cao Di.
On the city tower, Cao Di was about to commit suicide to apologize, but was stopped by his personal guards.
Fan Lihua got the news and immediately sent someone to watch Cao Di alone to prevent him from committing suicide. finally captured a general, if he was allowed to commit suicide again, Fan Lihua didn't know how to meet the prince.
**********
When the battle report of Tanmu County reached the hands of the lords.
There was silence in the south-central part of Leizhou, and there was no sound.
Everyone knows that the central and southern parts of Leizhou are completely finished, and there is no chance of a turnaround.
Some of these lords, without waiting for the army of Shanhai City to attack, simply rolled up the money of the territory, left his subjects, and directly teleported to the royal city, where they fled.
The entire central and southern part of Leizhou suddenly fell into chaos.
Some rogues in the wilderness even took the opportunity to make trouble, burning, killing and looting.
Leizhou is in urgent need of a male lord to re-establish order.
**********
In the afternoon of the same day, the 1st Brigade of the Praetorian Guard Division came to the outside of Yanluo County.
The lord of Yanluo County, the Fireworks Demon, has long received the news of the defeat of the Allied forces.
Unlike other lords who abandoned the city and fled, the practice of fireworks demons seemed a little weird. He was directly at the head of the city, hoisted a white flag, and expressed his willingness to surrender.
When the First Brigade saw this, it seemed a little hesitant, fearing that there would be fraud.
The lessons of the Southern Route Army are vivid. The initiator is Yanluo County in front of him.
The fireworks demon stood at the head of the city, and when he saw that the first brigade was stationary, he made another astonishing move. He simply took Uncle Bao's teeth, held the lord's seal, and went out of the city to surrender.
Seeing this, the first brigade was relieved, and after entering the city, it successfully took over the lord's mansion.
Strangely, the fireworks demon did not leave, but moved to a mansion next to the lord's mansion to live. With him, there is also his important minister Bao Shuya.
The commander of the 1st Brigade did not make any claims, and after occupying Yanluo County, he reported the battle report to the base camp 1510 and waited for further instructions from the base camp.
This is more than half a month.
With the end of the battle of Tanmu County, Bai Qi was so busy that almost every hour, a battle report was sent to his case.
Some asked for instructions on the deployment of logistical materials, some asked for instructions on how to deal with prisoners of war, some asked for instructions on the next plan of action, and so on.
However, every battle report cannot be ignored in vain, and instructions must be given. At such a time, where can he care about such a trivial matter. The war report was pressed on Bai Qi's desk, and no one cared about it at all.
With the defeat of the Allied forces in the central and southern regions, the Luo Shixin division regiment, under the instructions of the base camp, quickly moved north to support the Northern Route Army. As for the central and southern parts of Leizhou, it was handed over to the Fan Lihua Division to sweep the tail.
The First Division of the Huben Legion, under the command of Fan Lihua, completely wiped out the central and southern parts of Leizhou at the speed of one city a day and in only one week.
Wanderers from all walks of life fled from the wind.
The chaotic central and southern parts of Leizhou suddenly fell silent.
The officials who followed the 1st Division to take over the city complained to their superiors, saying that with such a fast siege speed, they would not be able to keep themselves busy, even if they had the doppelganger technique.
Where did the four directors have time to pay attention to the complaints of their subordinates, they were even busier than their subordinates.
The gentry were cleared, officials were appointed, prisoners of war were reorganized, and the people were pacified......
Fan Zhongyan was so busy that he didn't even have time to eat alone. I can only listen to the reports of my subordinates while eating, and give instructions in time.
Fan Zhongyan was busy, and Du Ruhui was a little frightened.
The army of the first division of the Tiger Ben Regiment was busy clearing the territory, and in the entire central and southern part of Leizhou, there were 60,000 or 70,000 prisoners of war, but there was only less than a brigade of regular troops to guard them.
Thinking of this, Du Ruhui couldn't even sleep well.
The ministers under his command were so busy in Leizhou that smoke was rising above their heads, but Ouyang Shuo, as the lord, was still sitting in Shanhai City in a leisurely manner, without the slightest intention of moving, so it was not comfortable.
And with the northward movement of the Luo Shixin Division, there were no twists and turns in the war in the north of Leizhou.
Luo Shixin's army went all the way north, first assisting the Praetorian Guard Division and completely sweeping the central part of Leizhou.
Then, the two masters went north hand in hand.
Along the way, nature is overwhelming.
By the time the army arrived at the confrontation site of the Northern Route Army, the entire northern part of Leizhou had been basically cleared.
It was only at this time that the Northern Alliance regretted that it should not have followed the advice of the fireworks demon, and ended up losing all the games.
The defeat of the allied forces in Tanmu County was like overthrowing the first card of the dominoes, and the whole caused the collapse of the entire Leizhou battle situation.
Although Wei Zhang was a fierce general, he could only surrender obediently in the face of the attack of the three master groups.
The fighting lasted until late June, when the entire Leizhou was basically taken.
Leizhou is about to usher in a new owner! (To be continued.) )
