"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 711
Zeshan Town, Yunshan Province.
Billowing black smoke shot straight into the sky, people were screaming and horses neighing, and the black soldiers of the southern army were launching a fierce attack on Zeshan Town amidst the sound of war drums.
"Let the arrow, let the arrow!"
Guarding Zeshan Town is part of the Qinghe Army's Fourth Army Corps. Seeing the Southern Army rushing forward, the Qinghe Army Banner Battalion Commander yelled hoarsely.
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
Sparse arrows fell into the black attacking team of the Confederate Army, and many of them were blocked by the shields of the Confederate Army.
Except for a few unlucky ones occasionally, the sparse arrows of the Qinghe Army did not pose much threat to the Southern Army.
The battle has been going on for several days. Facing the fierce attack of the Southern Army, the Fourth Army of the Qinghe Army is under great pressure.
After the Fourth Corps of the Qinghe Army walked out of the mountains, although its strength had been restored to a certain extent, it was still powerless in the face of the large and powerful Southern Army.
General Song Yu of the Southern Army stationed in Yunshan Province, on the one hand actively encircled and suppressed the rebel Yang Hao and Qinghe Army troops, and on the other hand recruited troops wantonly.
Although Song Yu is the confidant of Luo Mingyuan, the great general of Zhennan, he also knows that in these turbulent years, only with a strong military force can he gain power and status.
Now General Song Yu of the Southern Army is in full charge of the war in Yunshan Province. In the name of clearing up the rebels and rebels, he wantonly searched for money.
And the money was used by him to recruit soldiers and horses. Coupled with the support of some Yunshan provincial families, Song Yu's strength is also increasing day by day.
Although Southern Army General Song Yu was fighting against the Qinghe Army and the rebel Yang Hao's troops at the same time, but because he had a steady stream of money, food, soldiers and horses, his strength has not been compromised, but has continued to increase.
The Southern Army troops under Song Yu's command also fought many battles with Yang Hao and the others, but they were not the pampered rabble back then.
Although some recruits have been recruited aggressively now, the recruits have also quickly entered the battlefield.
Song Yu's Southern Army recruits had a battle loss rate of more than 50%, but Song Yu didn't care.
When the previous batch of recruits is exhausted, he will immediately recruit recruits from other prefectures and counties to supplement the army.
After being continuously eliminated in cruel battles, although Song Yu's southern army suffered heavy casualties every time, their combat effectiveness was gradually increasing.
Even the elite who survived fierce battles like the Fourth Army of the Qinghe Army were somewhat overwhelmed by the waves of attacks from the Southern Army.
"Take Zeshan Town and eat meat tonight!"
Seeing Zeshan Town, which was already piled up with corpses, a newly promoted general of the Southern Army raised his arms and shouted.
This general is not from those big families, but has gradually grown up in a series of battles.
Now half of the more than 10,000 people under this general's command are recruits with crude weapons.
These recruits neither had the uniforms of the Southern Army nor the standard equipment of the Southern Army, and were pulled directly from the refugee camp.
General Song Yu of the Southern Army called these young and strong men without combat effectiveness miscellaneous soldiers, that is, consumables on the battlefield.
Only those miscellaneous soldiers who survived two battles will be issued official military uniforms and weapons, and then enjoy better treatment.
Now, after hearing the general's words, the Southern Army's miscellaneous soldiers immediately cheered and their morale was greatly boosted.
These people were all people who lost their homes due to the war, and because they were starving to death, they joined the Southern Army to earn a living.
?Because of their low status, eating is also the most crude and simple meal, and they will not eat meat unless they win a battle.
However, they often fall on the battlefield before they can eat meat.
Now, in order to eat a bite of meat, they waved their weapons one by one, yelling and launching a fierce attack on the Fourth Army of the Qinghe Army guarding Zeshan Town.
"kill!"
Most of the Fourth Army of the Qinghe Army are veterans of hundreds of battles, but they are also exhausted from continuous fighting.
But in the face of life and death, they also had to fight hard to kill the soldiers of the Southern Army who rushed to them.
"Puff!"
"ah!"
The soldiers of the Southern Army who rushed to the soldiers of the Qinghe Army first were knocked to the ground by the soldiers of the Qinghe Army almost as soon as they met each other.
But the soldiers of the southern army behind did not have the slightest fear, and one by one desperately stepped up to the substitute.
Another veteran of the Qinghe Army chopped down three Southern Army soldiers in a row. When he was not paying attention, he was thrown to the ground by a Southern Army soldier.
Before he could get up, several spears pierced into his body fiercely, and he howled in pain.
Facing the ferocious attack of the Southern Army, Rao, the elite Qinghe Army of the Fourth Army, fought for about half an hour, and the outer defense line was declared lost.
The remaining Qinghe army retreated into Zeshan Town, trying to rely on buildings to fight these southern troops.
"Kill them all!"
The general of the Southern Army gave the order coldly, and the Southern Army poured into the town like a tide from all directions.
In the evening, Zeshan Town was declared to have fallen, and the battle flag of the Southern Army replaced that of the Qinghe Army and was raised in Zeshan Town.
"Master Legion, Zeshan Town has fallen, and only a few dozen brothers escaped."
Almost all the battalion generals in charge of guarding Zeshan Town and more than 3,000 Qinghe troops were killed, and only a few dozen people broke out.
"Fleeers, beheaded!"
In the camp of the Fourth Army of the Qinghe Army, the commander of the army, Liu Yidao, looked very ugly and roared angrily.
"Master Legion, they have held on for three days with 3,000 weak soldiers. They have tried their best. I beg you to spare their lives."
"General, they really tried their best, please let the general be lenient."
"Master Legion Commander, please forgive me."
Hearing that Liu Yidao was going to kill the dozens of soldiers who had broken through, the generals all begged for mercy.
"That's all, that's all, it's not listed."
Seeing so many generals interceding for them, Liu Yidao was not a hard-hearted person, so he waved his hands helplessly.
Liu Yidao naturally knew the situation of the battle in Zeshan Town, but unfortunately, he encountered fierce attacks from the Southern Army in all directions, so that he had no way to deploy troops to reinforce Zeshan Town.
"Send someone to urge General Luo again, and ask him to send reinforcements quickly."
At the beginning, Luo Dagang, the head of the Fifth Army, promised to send troops to reinforce Liu Yidao and the others. Unfortunately, the reinforcements did not arrive for a long time.
With the fall of Zeshan Town on the outskirts, the territory that Liu Yidao and the others can control is limited to a few villages around the county seat.
"Decree to the whole army that people will not remove their armor and horses and saddles, and strengthen their guard in all directions. Whoever loses ground again, I will definitely kill him!"
"No!"
The situation of the Fourth Army Corps is worrisome, and Liu Yidao is also very upset now.
Luo Dagang's troops were actually not far away from them, but Luo Dagang deliberately wanted to reinforce them later, in order to weaken Liu Yidao and the others with the help of the Southern Army.
Although Liu Yidao voted for Luo Dagang, in Luo Dagang's view, Liu Yidao's strength is too strong, which is not good for him.
"My lord, Li Qiye, Chief of Staff of the Second Legion, please see me."
When the generals of the Fourth Army were ordered to deploy night defenses, a personal guard strode into the military tent.
"Li Qiye? What is he doing here?"
Hearing Li Qiye, the Chief of Staff of the Second Legion, asked to see him, Liu Yidao was also full of doubts, because the situation is delicate now. After he voted for Luo Dagang, he and Li Qiye are actually secretly hostile. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
