Chapter 219 Bloodwashing the Long Street
Chapter 219 Bloody Slaughter of the Long Street
Harrison sighed and said intimately, "There is no tiger in the mountains, so only a monkey can be the overlord." Now Hu You and a group of military advisors are not around, so he has to carry the banner.
In fact, Harrison is not a person without ability, otherwise Hu You would not have allowed him to sit in the army to such a high position. If Hou San's upswing had some selfish thoughts about Hu You, then Harrison's upswing was entirely due to his ability.
Harrison was born in a regular army of the Empire. To put it bluntly, when he was a general, Hu You, Zhu Daneng, and Hou San didn't know where to pee and play with mud. However, eight years of life in the slave camp erased too much of Harrison's will. Although he had never given up on himself, he was still hit in terms of self-confidence. He was afraid that this Dilang Tiancheng would be thrown away from his own hands.
Now that things are so far, Harrison knows that he can't hide, so he can only resist. To be honest, it's really good to be entrusted with hope. At least now, no one dares to look down on him anymore.
After all the information was reported, Harrison stood up, looked around everyone, and said, "Send the order and strictly guard the three gates of the south, west and north. Except for the soldiers of the Immortal Bird Legion, no one is allowed to approach the city gate within 500 steps. Those who violate the order will be killed directly. At the same time, a curfew is imposed in the city. The people in Fanlangtian City are not allowed to take a step forward for any reason. Even if it is on fire, they will stay at home."
Harrison's order surprised all the generals present. As soon as they came up, they even issued two orders to fight against the people, saying that they were not allowed to leave the house even when they caught fire. This was something they had never heard of.
Harrison glanced at the generals and saw everyone's reaction. He knew that his order was a bit ruthless, but there was nothing he could do about it. With the combat power of the Immortal Legion, even if it was not prepared, it would not be so easy to break the city gate head-on. Now the east gate was broken all of a sudden, without thinking, it must be an enemy who had sneaked into the city.
It is not too difficult to find these people who have been infiltrated into the city, because Hu You distributed identity cards to every citizen. The biggest use of identity cards is to find spies.
It is simple, but Harrison cannot do this now. Langtian has a permanent population of over one million, and with merchants and tourists from all over the country, the population is about one million. But now Langtian's Immortal troops only have 80,000 people, and they have to deal with the enemy's attack. They don't have that much military force to identify who is an ordinary citizen and who is a spy. The so-called heavy dictionary in troubled times, Harrison stayed in the slave camp for eight years and did not learn anything else. He had a deep understanding of the word "ruthless". Now, only ruthless can solve the crisis.
He snorted, pulled everyone's attention back to himself again, and Harrison said: "The Young Marshal handed over Langtian to our hands, which is his trust in us. Langtian is related to the development and honor of our Immortal Bird Legion. We must not lose Langtian."
Harrison said this and actually laughed. He smiled and said, "In the past, there were young marshals, Zhu Daneng, Hou San, Ximen Xue and Xuan Japanese Army Division, which shone with no light at all. This time, it was time for us to show our performance. Let us use our actions to let the world know that in the Immortal Legion, there are not only military geniuses like Young marshals, but we are definitely not bad."
Harrison's words aroused the generals' desire to win. Yes, Hu You, Zhu Daneng and other generals are too strong. On weekdays, when people mention the Immortal Legion, the first thing they think of is them. Now there is such a good opportunity, how can they not show it? This time, let the young marshal and the people see that they can be very powerful.
The young marshal used only 300 people to block the attack of the Anrong Beast Legion on Huanglong Road, and also took Tiekara's right eye. Now there are two main battle divisions in the city, with 80,000 troops, and they are on their own territory. What's there to be afraid of?
"Do it, we did it"
I don't know who shouted and ignited the atmosphere in the conference room. Although these generals were not as famous as Zhu Daneng, Hou San and others, they also experienced various wars with Hu Youli, and were full of blood. Killing people is just a lie, so what's there to be afraid of?
Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm had ignited, Harrison continued to order: "Gama, Alonso, Villa..., I will command the ** regiment. Your mission is to regain control of the East Gate. Can you do it?"
Gama and other generals who were named stood up and shouted loudly: "I swear to complete the task to the death."
"Okay" Harrison took out the order and handed it to Gama, saluted solemnly and said, "Please give me a message. After this battle, I will ask you for me."
After Gama and others took the order and left, Harrison made new arrangements for each city defense area. Each command was fast and accurate, reflecting strong confidence.
As the generals took orders one by one, there were only three generals who had not yet been tasked in the conference room, and there were only 10,000 soldiers left in Harrison's hands. The three generals thought that Harrison wanted to let them three and the 10,000 soldiers be reserved and support all forces at any time. Who knew that Harrison stood up at this time and said, "Three, it's time for us to perform."
"Major General, aren't we reserve troops?" asked a lieutenant colonel.
Harrison shook his head and said, "We have no reserve troops now, we can only fight to the death and have no way out."
Eighty thousand soldiers wanted to defend a city as big as Langtian, and they were already short of troops. Harrison never thought about leaving any reserve troops. The reason why he left these ten thousand men was to eliminate those spies who were mixed into the city.
Xingwen Street is the area with the most severe riots. When Harrison brought 10,000 cavalry here, the chaos here continued. When Harrison's 10,000 cavalry appeared, those who caused the turmoil not only did not run away, but also wanted to rely on the identity of the people to attack Harrison's troops.
Harrison sneered, pulled his hand and ordered: "Kill me, no one left."
"Sir, many of these people are our city residents in the sky," a general reminded.
Harrison snorted coldly: "Our city people are now at home, and those on the street are all enemy spies. The whole army obeys the orders and kills them."
Harrison held up his sabre, kicked the horse in the stomach, followed the horse, rushed out like an arrow, and raised his sword and fell. The two Baiyun City people who wanted to come over to create chaos in the army were not even in a hurry to react, and they had already lost their heads.
Most of the ten thousand soldiers brought by Harrison were the previous slave camp soldiers. After hearing Harrison's orders, they also raised their sabers, followed Harrison and rushed forward.
Those who caused the riots did not expect that Harrison was so cruel, and he was inseparable from the enemy and the enemy. But now, it was too late to panic. Ten thousand iron cavalry and ten thousand shining sabers, like lightning in the dark, crossing the long street.
Are there ordinary people on this long street? If you ask Harrison, he can tell you with certainty that there are, and many. In this area, many houses in many families have been lit, and many ordinary people have run to the street.
But Harrison doesn't care about so much now, because among these people, there are people and spies. The reason why they want to create chaos is to help the siege troops. If Harrison has enough troops and enough time, he can slowly distinguish who is the people and who is the spy.
But now, Harrison has no manpower and no time. Every second more than a second, Langtian City is in danger of falling into the hands of the enemy. He must resolve these riots as soon as possible to eliminate worries and return to other places.
When Harrison made this decision, he knew that he would definitely kill the people by mistake, so he did not issue this order to other generals, but he would do it himself. He had already thought about it and he would bear all the responsibilities alone. As long as he could protect Langtian City, he would do whatever he could.
Conrad angrily cut three commanders attacking the East Gate in a row. He never expected that the counterattack of the Immortal Legion would be so fierce. His men had successfully opened the East Gate before, and the troops had already entered Langtian City. However, at this moment, not only did they not be able to expand the results of the battle, but they also forced the Immortal's counterattack troops to retreat a little bit. They almost lost the East Gate that they had already obtained.
Conrad had already given a death order and could only move forward, not retreating, and those who retreated were killed. Conrad was not just saying it, he did what he said. He sent his confidants to advance to supervise the battle and drew a line to move forward, but when he saw someone retreating, he rushed up and chopped it up without saying a word.
Many of Conrad's troops were collected by gangsters and bandits. These people were all crazy when they saw blood, and many of them were killed. Not only did they kill retreating soldiers, but they also rushed up to chop some of the slow-running ones.
Under such powerful oppression, many Conrad troops, who had already been repelled, rushed forward desperately as if they had taken the wrong medicine. They actually rushed into Langtian City and occupied a main street.
Gama led the 40,000 soldiers from the ** regiment to fight to the death. He knew that the only one in the city who could use to defend the city was the only one in his hands. Once the enemy was defeated, the Langtian City would be truly lost.
Wars have always been bloody and cruel. This long street cannot allow 40,000 people to enter the battle at the same time. Jiama can only fill up for 2,200 or 2,000. He didn't know how many troops the enemy had mobilized to fight the sky. He only knew that if two thousand people were pulled up, it would take less than twenty minutes. Sometimes, it would not even last ten minutes.
Gama felt like he was sleepwalking. He didn't know what else he could do except step on the blood that had already spread over his instep and fill the soldiers up in teams.
While the soldiers of the Immortal Legion showed their strong combat power, they also clearly showed their military qualities and explained to people what a good soldier is.
A good soldier, a simple explanation is that the soldiers who know they are dead, but they still follow the orders. This is what the soldiers of the ** regiment do now. Compared with the special forces regiments and field regiments, their military age is much younger, but the courage they show is not inferior to the other two regiments at all.
Everyone knows that under such circumstances, rushing up is almost a mortal act. But they have not thought about these problems. They only know that they must use their blood and life to protect Langtian City and the people here.
This time, Hou San quickly dispatched troops to relieve the danger of Baoning, but did not transfer the ** regiment. This made many soldiers of the ** regiment hold their breath in their hearts. Now these hateful enemies who jumped out of nowhere actually dared to come and fight Langtian, which just gave them a chance to vent their anger. They wanted to fight for the honor of the ** regiment, and they had to use their own blood to prove that the ** regiment is not worse than other divisions. Like other division soldiers of the Immortal Bird, they are also powerful and can also deliver important tasks.
Many of the houses on both sides of the road were destroyed by the fight between the two armies. They were squeezed out by the soldiers with their bodies. Many of the evacuated soldiers did not realize that they were still alive until a while. They all felt very strange that in such an environment, there was still someone who could survive.
However, the surviving soldiers did not Qingxing. They consciously formed another team of two thousand people, silently waiting for the next group to attack during the rest.
A thunder flashed in the sky, and God seemed to want to join in the fun.
Harrison threw away the third saber that had been chopped and rolled up, and used his numb and unconscious hand to pick up another saber on the ground. There was a gap in the saber, and he didn't know what his former owner had done with him. Harrison used it only one purpose, that is, to kill the enemy.
For three hours, Harrison and his soldiers washed seventeen long streets bloody. He didn't know how many people died under his knife. He only knew that fewer people on the streets had become and the riots had basically subsided.
I looked back at the soldiers behind me and found that there were only more than 5,000 people left. None of them were left. Every soldier was covered in blood, with enemies and his own. Some even belonged to those who sat down. Under such circumstances, the war horses were inevitably injured.
Until now, Harrison still doesn't know where the troops launched such a fierce attack on Langtian. He didn't have time to understand these things. He only knew that the enemy he encountered this time was a very terrifying guy, and their combat power would even surpass any enemy they had encountered in the past. Moreover, they also had a cunning coach. He actually used more than 50,000 soldiers to pretend to be civilians and create chaos in the city. If it weren't for the quick implementation of the curfew, Harrison wouldn't have dared to imagine what Langtian City would be like now.
Looking at the empty and deserted street, Harrison thought that if the enemy's tricks were successful, then now there should be thousands of residents who are desperately rushing to various city gates, luggage, carriages, children, livestock, and bags, throwing them all over the ground.
At that time, the crying and shouting were shocking, and it was extremely chaotic. Even if you cut it with a knife, it would not solve any problem. Those spies were mixed in the crowd and rushed to the four gates, and then the city was broken and the people were killed.
The woman who fell halfway to a house but still stayed at home smiled. Harrison shook the reins and rushed towards the east gate. The war there was not over yet, and he wanted to go and see it.
"Mr. Conrad, the opponent's counterattack is very tenacious, and we can't stand it anymore. Generals, can you withdraw... and retreat." The soldiers reported with a panic look on their faces.
Conrad played with the knife with blood in his hand. He had just used this knife to cut a soldier who came to report the news. He actually said that more than 100,000 troops had died in battle. How could that be possible? The soldiers who remained in the city of the Immortal Legion had only 80,000 troops in total, could actually kill his 100,000 troops. He didn't believe that the soldier must be lying to him.
"What did you say? Please say it again, what are the generals saying?" Conrad tilted his head and looked at the soldier. The soldier's words were a little trembling. He didn't understand what the last sentence was, was it a retreat?
The soldier looked at the bleeding corpse on the ground. He knew the soldier. They had dinner together a day ago. He said that his wife was about to give birth to a baby and he would be a father soon. Now it seems that he has no chance to be a father. He has become a father, but he doesn't know if he can still hear the child calling him father.
The soldier stuttered and repeated: "Generals ask for instructions, can you retreat first?"
Conrad showed a smile on his face and asked the soldier with a kind look on his face, "Do you just want to tell me this?"
The soldier nodded nervously. His experience told him that when Conrad smiled, there was often nothing good. People in Baiyun City were saying that Conrad smiled happily when he killed his father.
Conrad sighed and said, "Don't tell me about things like this in the future. I don't like to listen to them. Do you understand?"
The soldier nodded violently, just about to get through Qingxing himself. However, his happiness did not fully rise, and he felt a pain in his lower abdomen. Conrad's cold voice came from his ears: "I forgot to tell you that you have no future."
The only thought that flashed through the soldier's mind when he was about to die was that he would not be a communication soldier in the future, and that was not something that humans did.
The rain finally couldn't help but fall. It was so heavy, so heavy. It was a heavy rain. The rain hit Harrison's body and instantly turned red, bringing a lot of blood. However, the blood red on Harrison's hands could not be washed away, because his knife would always bring new red.
This murderous devil in the mouth of later historians, the blood on his hands is not a small amount of rain that can be washed away.
