Chapter 397 Leizhou Changes Owner

Cao GUI's self-confidence did not last long.

In less than half an hour, the messenger ran over in a panic, and said with a pale face, "General, it's not good, the enemy's reinforcements have entered the city!"

"what?"

Cao GUI's face turned pale with fright, his body swayed, and he was about to lose his footing.

His face instantly became ferocious, and he stepped forward quickly, grabbed the messenger by the collar, and said sharply: "Nonsense. The city gate is guarded by two thousand troops, how could it be breached so quickly? How dare you fake the messenger's collar?" Military situation, I will kill you!" As he said that, he was about to draw out the sword at his waist.

The poor messenger was frightened by Cao GUI's ferocious expression, and his collar strangled him almost out of breath. His heart trembled, it was over, he was going to die at the hands of the general.

"General, general!"

Fortunately, the personal guards rushed over in time and saved the orderly soldier's life.

Cao GUI was taken aback, and finally recovered a little. He tried his best to keep calm, and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Tell me, how did the city gate be breached?"

The messenger took a quick breath, his face flushed, and he turned around a little. He glanced at Cao GUI with lingering fear, and said cautiously: "The enemy had already ambushed an army at the gate of the city, and caught the guards of the city gate by surprise. The two sides cooperated internally and externally, and the city gate was quickly breached."

It was Zhao Yan's five hundred elites who ambushed the city gate defenders.

Last night, Zhao Yan led his troops and sneaked into the houses near the city gate. As soon as the army led by Luo Shixin arrived, they rushed out immediately and beat the two thousand city gate guards to pieces.

"ambush?"

Cao GUI is so clever, he can figure out the cause and effect of the matter in one go.

"Careless!"

Cao GUI did not expect that the enemy army would ambush a surprise soldier in advance in such a desperate situation. In this battle, Cao GUI lost, completely.

The huge sense of frustration made Cao GUI look devastated.

"General, what should we do now?"

"What should I do?" Cao GUI muttered to himself, and after a long time, he managed to squeeze out a few words: "Surrender!"

Cao GUI didn't want the soldiers to lose their lives in vain, and it was meaningless to fight any longer.

There was a sudden silence on the tower.

Falling from heaven to hell, this feeling is definitely not good.

One moment, they were still in sight of victory; the next moment, they were about to become prisoners.

"Surrender!"

Cao GUI said it again, but his tone was much firmer.

My lord, Cao GUI has something to trust!

In Cao GUI's eyes, there was a flash of death.

***********

When the sound of rumbling horseshoes sounded on the commercial street, it was a nightmare for the allied forces who were attacking.

The chilling cavalry rushed over from behind at high speed, and immediately turned on their backs.

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 on the top of the city. The Allied soldiers quickly dropped their weapons like a ghost, for fear of being accidentally killed by these demons.

Compared with the bleakness of the Allied Army, the position of the South Route Army was naturally a carnival.

They did it, and under the onslaught of 50,000 troops, they finally persisted until the arrival of reinforcements.

The First Division of the Huben Legion is worthy of its glory.

After the carnival, there is great exhaustion and sleepiness. In order to prevent the enemy's night attack, the soldiers have not slept a good night for two days and two nights.

Some soldiers, regardless of the bloody battlefield, fell asleep.

The corpses on the battlefield were used by soldiers as pillows.

When Luo Shixin led his troops to arrive, what he saw was such a strange scene.

***********

With the surrender of the Allied Forces, the first battle in Tammu County ended with the victory of Shanhai City.

Fan Lihua stood on the dilapidated battlefield, but there was no trace of the victor's joy on her face.

This victory did not come easily.

In this battle, more than 3,000 soldiers were killed in the First Division of the Huben Army, including a brigade commander and six battalion officers. If you count the wounded, the casualty rate is close to one-third.

This is the first time that a brigade commander has died in battle since Shanhai City became an army.

The loss is not insignificant.

The brigade commander who died in battle was Li Mingliang, the brigade commander of the Cavalry Brigade of the First Division.

Li Mingliang is also a veteran of Shanhai City. Since the time of Shanhai Village, he has been valued by Ouyang Shuo. He has been promoted all the way, from Huo Changgan to Team Leader, then to Camp Leader, and finally to Brigade Commander.

Unexpectedly, he fell forever on the battlefield in Tanmu County.

The atmosphere on the battlefield seemed a little depressing.

Seeing this, Luo Shixin led his troops to take over the work of taking prisoners of war.

Of the more than 50,000 allied troops, only 30,000 survived in the end. Some of the soldiers were seriously injured and must be retired. At the end of the battle, no less than a thousand people were executed by the supervising team alone.

This battle was really brutal.

Fan Lihua is also a strong female general, after being a little sad, she recovered.

Take prisoners of war, treat the wounded, clean up the battlefield...

In addition, there is the completion of the occupation of Tamu County, the restoration of order in Tamu County, the implementation of military control over Tamu County, and so on.

The work after the war was really complicated and piecemeal.

The lord of Tanmu County broke the table, and when Luo Shixin's army entered the city, he abandoned the city and fled.

The most important thing in taking prisoners of war is naturally Cao GUI.

Taking time off, Fan Lihua specially went to see Cao GUI.

On the city tower, Cao GUI was about to commit suicide and apologize, but was stopped by his personal guards.

When Fan Lihua got the news, she immediately sent someone to detain Cao GUI alone to prevent him from committing suicide. After finally capturing a general, if he is allowed to commit suicide again, Fan Lihua doesn't know how to meet Junhou.

***********

When the battle report of Tamu County reached the hands of the lords.

There was a sudden 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 over, and there is no chance of a comeback.

Some of the lords, without waiting for the Shanhai City army to attack, simply rolled up the money in the territory, left their subjects, and directly teleported to the king city, where they fled.

The entire south-central area of ​​Leizhou suddenly fell into chaos.

Some rogues in the wilderness even took the opportunity to cause chaos, burning, killing and looting.

Leizhou urgently needs a hero to re-establish order.

***********

That afternoon, the first brigade of the imperial guards arrived outside Yanluo County.

The lord of Yanluo County, Yanhuo, had already received the news of the defeat of the Allied forces.

Unlike other lords who abandoned the city and fled, the practice of the pyrotechnic evildoer seemed a bit weird. He hung a white flag directly on the top of the city, expressing his willingness to surrender.

Seeing this, the first brigade seemed a little hesitant, fearing fraud.

The lessons learned by the South Route Army are vivid in my mind. The instigator was the Yanluo County in front of him.

The pyrotechnic evildoer stood at the top of the city, and seeing that the first brigade was standing still, he made another astonishing move. He simply took Bao Shuya, holding the lord's seal, and went out of the city to surrender.

Seeing this, the first brigade felt at ease. After entering the city, they successfully took over the Lord's Mansion.

The strange thing is that the pyrotechnic evildoer did not leave, but moved to live in a mansion next to the Lord's Mansion. Along with him, there is also his important minister Bao Shuya.

The brigade commander of the first brigade did not make any claims. After occupying Yanluo County, he reported the battle report to the base camp in detail, waiting for further instructions from the base camp.

This wait is half a month.

With the end of the battle in Tanmu County, Bai Qi was so busy that his feet never touched the ground. Almost every hour, a battle report was submitted to his case.

Some asked for instructions on the deployment of logistics supplies, some asked for instructions on how to deal with prisoners of war, and some asked for instructions on the next action plan, etc., and so on.

However, every battle report, Bai Qi can't ignore it, he has to give instructions. At a time like this, how could he care about such a small matter. That battle report was kept on Bai Qi's desk, and no one cared about it at all.

Following the defeat of the Allied forces in the south-central region, under the instructions of the base camp, the Luo Shixin Division quickly went northward to support the Northern Route Army. As for the south-central area of ​​Leizhou, it will be handled by the Fanli Flower Division.

The First Division of the Huben Legion, under the command of Fan Lihua, completely wiped out the central and southern parts of Leizhou in just one week at the rate of one city per day.

Bandits from all walks of life fled watching the wind.

The chaotic south-central part of Leizhou suddenly became quiet.

The officials who followed the First Division and took over the city complained to their superiors, saying that with such a fast siege speed, even if they had avatar skills, they would not be able to handle it.

How could the four directors have time to pay attention to the complaints of their subordinates, they were even busier than their subordinates.

Check out the gentry, appoint officials, organize prisoners of war, appease the people...

Fan Zhongyan and the others were so busy that they didn't even have time to eat alone. I can only listen to the reports of my subordinates while eating, and make timely instructions.

Fan Zhongyan was busy, but Du Ruhui was a little frightened.

The army of the First Division of the Huben Legion was busy clearing the territory. In the entire south-central Leizhou, there were less than 60,000 to 70,000 prisoners of war, but less than a brigade of regular troops was in custody.

Thinking of this, Du Ruhui couldn't even sleep well.

The ministers under him were so busy in Leizhou that smoke was blowing from their heads, but Ouyang Shuo, as the lord, was still leisurely sitting in Shanhai City, with no intention of leaving at all, so very uncomfortable.

And with Luo Shixin's regiment heading north, the battle in the northern part of Leizhou has no more twists and turns.

Luo Shixin's army went all the way northward, first assisting the imperial guards and completely sweeping the central part of Leizhou.

Then, the two master troupes went north hand in hand.

Along the way, it was naturally overwhelming.

By the time the army arrived at the confrontation site of the North Route Army, the entire northern part of Leizhou had been basically wiped out.

It was only then that the Northern Alliance regretted that they had not followed the advice of the pyrotechnic evildoer, and ended up losing everything in the end.

The defeat of the allied forces in Tanmu County was like knocking down the first card of the dominoes, causing the entire battle situation in Leizhou to collapse.

Although Wei Zhang is a fierce general, he had no choice but to surrender obediently in the face of the pincer attack of the three master regiments.

The fighting lasted until late June, and the entire Leizhou was basically won.

Leizhou is about to welcome a new master!
