Chapter 192
In July of the 41st year of the Mandra Empire, the three main divisions of the Immortal Legion entered Langtian. According to the order of the young commander Hu You, Zhu Daneng's ** regiment attacked the South Gate, and Hou Sanzhao Special Regiment launched an attack from the West Gate, while Harrison's field regiment went to the North Gate. The Inner Guard and Guard Regiment did not participate in the direct battle. Under the leadership of Kochis, they established a central army camp five miles outside Langtian City, ready to support at any time.
In the early morning of the 17th, the three main battle divisions of Immortal Birds launched an attack on the Red Turban Army of the ancient capital Langtian from the three gates in the south and west. The battle turned daylight from the beginning. For a moment, the killing sounds and the roars from the thunder chariot made the entire Langtian City tremble in the wind.
In Fengbu Mansion, Hu You set up a temporary command center here, specializing in managing the coalition forces of aristocratic merchants contacted by Fengbu. After five days of secret contact, Hu You had successfully developed a 10,000-person army composed of private soldiers of aristocratic merchants in Langtian City.
Hu You divided the ten thousand people into 100 groups, cooperated with the attack of the Immortal Legion, and carried out purposeful destruction in the city, spreading rumors that the Red Turban Army would be defeated.
Zhebo frowned and asked Hu You, "Young Marshal, I can't figure it out. Our military strength is not enough. Why don't you let Kochis attack the East Gate? Such attacks in four directions at the same time can better show our army's strength? Why should we leave the East Gate to empty?"
This question, since the Legion launched an attack this morning, Zhebei has been thinking about it, but until the afternoon, he didn't understand why Hu You was doing this.
After Hu You gave the 78th Team, which had just successfully burned a granary of the Red Turban Army, reached a new mission. While grabbing another document, he looked up at Zhebei, who was full of confusion, and asked, "Don't understand?"
Don't nod hard. Look at Hu You with your eyes, hoping that Hu You can give her an answer.
Hu You opened the newly sent battle report and said, "Do you know the purpose of our attack on Langtian?"
When Hu You spoke, his work did not stop. He had too many things to deal with at this time, which was Zhebiao. If someone else had changed, he had no time to pay attention to it.
Zhebe replied: "I know this, of course, it is to take down Langtian and give our Immortal Legion a better development platform."
"It's right." Hu You looked at Zhe with praise and taught him for so long. If she said that Hu You attacked Langtian because she wanted to be Langtian, Hu You would definitely knock on her head.
Although Hu You likes the title of Langtian King, Langtian King is just an accompanying gift and a false reputation, and has no substantial effect on this. Hu You's real purpose is to take down Langtian City and get a better development platform for the Immortal Legion.
"Feng Bu, let Team 56 burn the warehouse of his owner for half an hour. Be sure to pay attention, only burn the warehouse, and don't burn the store. If the fire is wrong, I will not compensate you." After Hu You threw a command to Feng Bu, he continued to Zhebi: "The purpose of our Immortal Bird Legion is to take down Langtian. You can only think about this idea and understand. The key is to take down."
"Catch it." Zhebo lowered his head and murmured to think about the meaning contained in Hu You's prompt. Hu You saw Zhebo thinking seriously, smiled and continued to deal with military affairs.
Langtian City Lord's Mansion.
The soldiers with sweating heads reported to Alshaven: "Reported to General Alshaven, many refugees suddenly appeared in the city setting fires everywhere and spreading rumors. Someone just attacked our messenger."
Arshavin cursed inwardly and asked, "Do you know who is making trouble?"
The soldier replied: "The city is very chaotic now and I can't find it out."
Arshavin also knew that all the cities were in chaos because of the war. The soldiers below who had not received much training were not able to deal with this issue. After pondering for a while, he said, "I ordered Liu Gang to take two thousand people to calm the situation. Anyone who provoked trouble would be executed on the spot as a crime of colluding with the enemy.
"Yes" the soldier ordered him to leave.
Al Shavin drank a sip of tea hard to keep himself as calm as possible. He had regarded this Immortal Hu You as his biggest opponent in his life, but he did not expect that he would underestimate him. This Immortal Legion is much more difficult to deal with than the previous noble soldiers.
In the Immortal Legion, not only are there a large number of attacking weapons, the most feared thing is that their thunderbolt chariots have been improved. In the past, the thunderbolt chariots were all smashed by stones, mainly destroying the city walls. The thunderbolt chariots of the Immortal Legion not only smashed stones, but also smashed half a pound of iron gall.
When Al Shavin thought of those iron gills, his heart was bleed. The iron gills were filled with sharp spikes all over his body. Those spikes more than half a foot long were thrown at the top of the city, not only killing the soldiers, but also hindering the movement of the troops.
"How could that bastard come up with such a bastard trick? It's his grandmother's bastard." Arshavin cursed in his heart.
"I understand." Zhebe, who was sitting opposite Hu You, was thinking hard, suddenly screaming excitedly and ran to Hu You.
Hu You didn't raise his head and stuffed the water cup into Zhebi's hand and said, "Don't rush to say it first, make me a cup of tea, my voice is almost smoking."
Don't pout, hold the cup and go to fetch water quickly.
Ximen Xue, who happened to walk into the room, asked Hu Youxiao: "You little guard is so cute, where did you find it?"
"It fell from the sky." Hu You rolled his eyes and asked, "What's the latest news?"
Ximen Xue replied: "Good news, the field team has broken through the North Gate. Now it is competing with the Red Turban Army for the North Gate to form a wall."
"Beautiful job." Hu You slapped the table and said, "This Harrison is worthy of being in the slave camp for eight years. His troops have to be attacked. I have to appreciate him well and invite him to have a drink."
Ximen Xue glared at Hu You and said, "It's now, you still have those things to think about. Is your four maids unhappy to serve you?"
"Hehe, you have to take a breath even if you hang yourself. If it is too tight, your nerves will be broken." Hu You laughed and said, "Is there any good news? How is the situation of the ** group and the special forces group?"
Ximen Xuedao: "I'm still anxious, but I believe that with the advancement of the field team, it's not too long before the Red Turban Army collapses on its entire line."
"Well, it seems that it's time for us to perform. Tell those guys not to set fire, find a place to change their clothes and hide them. When I heard the order, I shouted and ran towards the north gate."
On the front line of the South Gate, the main attack point of the ** regiment. Zhu Daneng was wearing a new black military uniform of immortal birds. The immortal bird's ejection on his shoulders shone with a golden light, and he directed the troops' attack with a deep face.
"Captain, the field team has already attacked the North Gate and has taken the lead." A soldier from the ** regiment reported to Zhu Daneng in a little frustrated. He thought that according to the progress, their ** regiment should have won the first merit.
Zhu Daneng waved his fat hand in anger and cursed: "Grandma, that guy Harrison has eaten Viagra, so fierce. Send me the troops to speed up the attack and catch Arshavin to the first achievement. Our ** regiment cannot lose to the field regiment."
The soldier's eyes flashed and he shouted happily: "Yes, regiment commander. Our ** regiment is the best, gold coins and beauties are all ours."
At the end of Ximen City, this is the main attack site of the Housan Special Forces Regiment and the place where the Red Turban Army focuses on defense. At this time, the positions present a scene of miserable and cruel war.
Under the powerful attack power of the Thunder Cart, there were gaps on the archways, battlements, steps and walls on the head of Ximen City. Many of the corpses of Red Turban soldiers with red cloth strips tied to their arms were hanging softly on the wall. Before this morning, they could still jump around, but at this time they could no longer jump.
There is no one who can't die in a war. Killing a thousand enemies and losing 800 of them will never win on the battlefield. The soldiers of the special forces regiment are also very casualties. The black spots lying in pools of blood, at a glance, are like stars in the sky, emitting a sad and beautiful light.
Hou Sanliang's eyes were blood-red and he pulled his hair. This was the first time he had commanded a division of 40,000 people to attack the enemy. For a hunter-born child, this was something he had never dreamed of in his dreams. He knew clearly in his heart that compared to Zhu Daneng and Harrison, his ability was not enough. If he had not been loyal to Hu You, he would not have been the leader of one of the three main divisions of Immortal Birds.
The predecessor of the special forces regiment was the Immortal Special Forces. This was the earliest unit with Hu You. Among the three major regiments, he was also the most powerful. Looking at the special forces soldiers who were lying on the ground and tangled with the enemy until they died, looking at the soldier who was shot so badly that he was almost unhealthy, Hou San felt that he was about to suffocate.
Hou San discovered for the first time that the war was so cruel. The soldiers who usually brag and spanked with him and drank with brothers and became dead in a blink of an eye. He didn't know what Zhu Da Neng and Harrison were thinking at this time. He only knew that his heart was very painful. He felt that the death of every soldier was related to him. He felt that he was not suitable to be the regiment commander. He wanted to escape, escape all this.
"Captain, leader"
The soldier's call woke Hou San up. He raised his head blankly and looked at his excited face with inquiring eyes.
"What's wrong?" Hou San's voice had never been hoarse before, which was burned by his anger.
The soldier shouted happily, "The Red Turban Army ran away, we won, we won."
"Victory?" Hou San looked at the soldier in confusion. He was dreaming before it was dark?
Turning his head to look at the head of Ximen City, Hou San was shocked. The Red Turban Army, which was fighting to the death, was running around in panic. The soldiers of the special forces regiment had already climbed to the head of Ximen City and were encircling and suppressing the stubborn Red Turban Army.
Hou San asked confusedly, "What's going on? What happened?"
"What's going on? What happened?" Arshavin slapped the table and swept the documents on the table all over the floor. The sound was like leaves flying in the wind.
Al Shavin asked, "Why did the soldiers suddenly rush to the east gate?"
The soldier who reported the news was frightened and stammered, "Report to the general, I don't know what happened.
I just heard that suddenly there were soldiers in the city shouting that the city had broken through, and then rushed to the east gate, attacked the defenders of the east gate, opened the east gate, and ran out. After that, more and more soldiers ran with them."
"Hu You, that hateful Hu You." Al Shawen kicked the table away and shouted angrily: "Immortal Bird, I swear to you."
Honda Kameyuki asked calmly: "How is the situation in each sect now? How many troops do we have?"
The soldiers reported: "The south gate, west gate, and north gate have all been lost. Most of the soldiers ran away, and now only the 30,000 soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion are left."
As calm as Honda Kameyuki heard the soldiers' reports, he couldn't help but look surprised. The battle situation changed too quickly. Just now, both sides were evenly matched, and even though the North Gate had been lost for a while, they were successfully taken back. According to normal analysis, even if Hu You had 200,000 well-equipped troops, it would be impossible to capture the Langtian City, which had 150,000 people in a month or two.
Honda Kameyu has made plans to fight Hu You for a long time and repeatedly. He has reached a reinforcement agreement with the Qingzhou Front. As long as he can withstand a month, the Qingzhou Three-Nation Alliance will come in in batches. At that time, not only can he remove Hu You's Immortal Legion, but he can also cut off a piece of fat meat from the Mandala Empire after Qingzhou.
By that time, he could take the lost capital of the Bauhinia Dynasty back to his own hands, laying a solid foundation for rebuilding the cause of the Bauhinia Dynasty.
Although doing this was much earlier than the original plan, Honda Kameyu was confident that he would succeed. Unexpectedly, the combat power of the Immortal Bird Legion was so powerful, and that bastard Hu You was so cunning that he opened the gate of Langtian City in just one day, which led to the soldiers escaping in the battle, and even the planned street fighting did not happen.
"No," a light flashed in Honda's heart. He grabbed the soldier and asked gloomyly: "Which unit was the first to attack the east gate? Say it quickly."
Yes, "The soldiers were speechless for a while, and then said with a pale face: "I don't know. No one can tell which unit was the first to attack the East Gate. They seemed to appear suddenly."
Honda Kameyu pushed the soldier away and said with a pale face: "It was Hu You, it must have been made by him. I should have thought that the first person to attack the East Gate must be those who had made trouble and destruction before."
Arshavin said with a disgraceful look on his face: "It's useless to know these now. We have failed."
"No, we didn't lose, we still have a chance." Honda Turtle Sui said: "I'm sure Hu You is in Langtian City at this time. He is by nature willing to take risks, and all of this must be planned in secret. Only he can do so many things in such a short time.
Hu You is the soul of the Immortal Legion. As long as you catch him, you can control the Immortal Legion. Even if they have occupied Langtian, we can force them to withdraw. We still have a chance to turn the tables."
Arshavin doubted: "Prime Minister, do you think that Hu You will really be in Langtian City?"
Honda Kameyuki said affirmatively: "Absolutely."
"Young master, we succeeded. The Red Turban Army was triggered by us. At least 100,000 soldiers rushed out of the east gate and ran away." Xuan Ri rushed into the study excitedly and shouted excitedly.
When Hu You made this plan before, she just judged that it would have a role for a while. However, she did not expect that such a miraculous effect could occur. The 100,000 Red Turban Army dropped the position and ran away without caring about it. It was really incredible.
Hu You was stunned for a moment, then ran out from behind the table, hugged Xuan Ri into his arms, screaming and shouting excitedly. This guy was taking the opportunity to take advantage of the situation again.
Hu You had already decided to attack three gates and leave one gate long before entering the city. At first, his idea was very simple. He just wanted to Langtian City. The Red Turban Army would not have anything to do with him. He would not foolishly use his soldiers to protect the preciousness to wipe out the Red Turban Army. So his purpose of leaving the East Gate to not fight or encircle was to tell the Red Turban Army that there was a way out here, and as long as you ran out of here, you would not have to die.
Later, when he contacted the noble merchants in the city, he found that their servants gathered together, and there were as many as 10,000 people. Hu You's heart started to turn.
Hu You's purpose was to use these ten thousand people to destroy them. But Hu You felt that this was far from enough. He thought about it and finally thought of using people's herd hearts to use a trick.
What does it mean to follow the heart of the herd? The simple explanation is that when something is not known how people should do it, they always like to imitate others' actions.
Just like when you first arrive in a strange place and want to eat or stay in a hotel, but don’t know which one is good, you will observe that there are many customers and you will definitely not go to restaurants that look deserted at first sight.
For example, when Hu You was in the world before, sometimes he had no business, so they would give some money to find some help to coax the scene and pretend to buy medicine to see a doctor. This would attract business.
Hu You made a big scam this time. He asked the ten thousand people brought from the noble merchants to change into clothes similar to the Red Turban Army, then tied the Red Turban Army's signature red cloth strips on his arms, and seized the opportunity to be the image of a defeated army, and ran to the east gate together.
These ten thousand people really made them fight head-on with the Red Turban Army. They didn't have the ability to do it, and they asked them to act, but that was their best.
It was a strange thing that suddenly had a great retreat of 10,000 people, and the morale of the Red Turban Army was still stable. They were originally a temporary army and had poor discipline. Seeing that others were running for life, the fool continued to defend the enemy. So you run, I run, everyone runs, and Langtian City fell into Hu You's hands.
