Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 318 Surrounding the Capital
In the entire Zhongjia country, except for the central city Shouchun, there are ten other large and small cities around, and the newly occupied area is equivalent to a Zhongjia country, and there are more than ten cities.

Now, Yuan Shu, who was in his own Shouchun Palace, was caught off guard by the sudden attack, and because of the rapid progress of the Qinghe Territory, the five cities located on the border between the old Zhongjiaguo territory and the newly occupied area were quickly broken through, and were attacked in all directions at the same time. For a while, various unfavorable information was transmitted to Shouchun City in the center.

In the northern area of ​​Zhongjiaguo, Hu Sanniang led the Wolf Totem Legion as the North Route Army of Qinghe, and took advantage of the night to dissipate to defeat Zhongjiaguo's [-]-man army stationed in the border area.

Afterwards, they advanced all the way, took the opportunity to take down a city, and advanced [-] kilometers south in one fell swoop, followed closely by the following Red Dragon Army, leaving a regiment to garrison the city.

The other troops continued to advance, and the wolf totem army consisted of more than 2 people, with the wolf cavalry as the main force.In the second city, even before receiving any news, it saw a large number of enemies rushing all the way under the city wall.

Immediately afterwards, the wolf cavalry, whose strength was at least the bronze level, did not need siege equipment at all. Hu Sanniang, the leader, sat down and charged away with a breath of dragon wolf.

Afterwards, the wolf cavalry rushed into the city and quickly occupied the entire gate area of ​​the city. The infantry behind followed in a short time, and then the entire wolf totem army entered the city, quickly annihilating the resistance in the city.

Moreover, because they saw the cloud of legions above Hu Sanniang's troops, the defenders of this city also recognized that they were elite troops.

Yuan Shu has four elite regiments under his command, each of which is a 3-strong frontier garrison led by General Ji Ling.

One is the 1 combat troops commanded by Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui, and the [-] imperial guards guarding the palace. These troops all have a legion spirit and have their own legion talents.

It was by relying on these four troops, together with Ji Ling's gold level strength, that Yuan Shu could fight against other mist lords on the misty land.

And the combat effectiveness of Legion Cloud Qi is also well known by the troops in other parts of Zhongjia Country. When they saw that the enemy was also Legion Cloud Qi above their heads, these troops defending the city became afraid and did not dare to resist at all.

In just half a day, Hu Sanniang went down two cities and advanced forty kilometers all the way. It can be said that the progress was so fast that even Yuan Shu's generals stationed in various places hadn't reacted yet.

On the other side, led by the Snake Bone Army and followed by the Desert Jackal Army, the South Route Army did not have the speed of Hu Sanniang, but they also captured a city and advanced twenty kilometers.

According to such an advance speed, it only takes two days to block the road from Zhongjiaguo to the newly occupied area.

But now, two counties in the fringe area of ​​Zhongjiaguo were quickly occupied by the Yellow Turban Army and the Sharp Army, followed by the Legion of Faith and took over the security of the two cities.

At the same time, he learned about Yuan Shu's situation from inside the city. When Di Feng heard about Yuan Shu's situation, he casually took a look at the living conditions of the people at the bottom.

Immediately, Di Feng understood that he had chosen a correct opponent this time. He only needed to give Qinghe Territory a period of time, and these occupied areas would become part of Qinghe Territory without any resistance.

Knowing the location of Shouchun City from inside the city, the next step is to go straight to Huanglong. Di Feng quickly summoned two regiments, the Yellow Turban Army, the Sharp Army, and the Faith Army, with a total of [-] troops to attack Shouchun quickly.

But in Shouchun City, there is Yuan Shu's imperial guards, and General Zhang Xun commanding [-] elite troops. According to intelligence, these [-] troops are elite troops with legion cloud energy and legion talent.

Therefore, Di Feng didn't dare to be careless. Forty thousand elite troops, plus himself as a gold-level powerhouse, how could they be able to fight against Yuan Shu's elite troops.

But now, according to the information, the Qinghe leader has taken down five counties, and the entire core area of ​​Zhongjiaguo is ten counties and one Shouchun capital. It can be said that Qingheling has taken down Zhongjiaguo half of the land.

Moreover, with the transfer of the Qinghe Territory, a 2-strong force has been organized in the rear of the Qinghe Territory from various guards and border defense regiments.

This force escorted a batch of supplies, and some officials who were transferred quickly rushed towards the occupied area.

When this group of people arrives, these counties will become the territory of Qinghe Territory, and the system of Qinghe Territory will be implemented.

Running all the way, at dusk in the afternoon, Di Feng arrived at the city of Shouchun with three legions. It only took one day from the time the news came to the enemy's attack. Officials of the country were shocked.

Compared with the slow speed of his own territory, Qinghe's marching speed is simply unimaginable. Moreover, standing on the city wall, he can see above the camp of the Di Army camped up, and the thick cloud of the army shrouds the entire camp.

This means that the enemy's army is also an elite army, and now there are only two troops in Shouchun City, and the rest are ordinary guards.

"The enemy is estimated to have 4 people, and their strength is comparable to ours, and we don't know how many gold-level powerhouses there are. Now we will delay until the North Route Army and the South Route Army converge, and we will mobilize two legions to take down the surrounding counties. city."

Di Feng spoke to the legion commanders around him.

"Now we have enough time. Every day we delay, our army's chances of winning will be higher."

"Yes."

Therefore, the Qinghe leader did not attack the city. The three legions blocked the four city gates and quickly deployed their positions. The Qinghe leader not only had cold weapons, but also various types of rune rifles and artillery.

Even if these positions are deployed, even if the enemy's [-] troops sneak attack, they will be able to block them for a period of time, and then other besieging troops will be able to rush over to support them.

Suddenly soldiers approached the city, cutting off the connection between Shouchun City and the outside world, but seeing that the enemy just besieged the city and did not attack, the civil and military ministers of Zhongjiaguo in the city breathed a sigh of relief.

Now the Qinghe leader is not ready, and the city of Shouchun is even more unprepared. The general Zhang Xun led the troops into the city wall, and Yuan Shu assigned Zhang Xun [-] imperial guards and [-] soldiers captured from the city. Militia.

On the first night, Zhang Xun had been deploying the city wall and did not have time to sneak attack, but this gave Di Feng the opportunity, and the legions outside the city deployed their positions overnight without any delay.

In the early morning of the next day, traps, mines, steel mesh, trenches, machine gun forts, artillery positions, sniper positions, and sentry towers were all set up.

Standing on the city wall and looking at it, you can see that the originally flat area has become densely packed with ravines, and there are many soldiers passing through it.

On the city wall, looking at the situation under the city wall, Yuan Shu climbed up to the top of the city and watched the scene.

"Your Majesty, the enemy is trying to surround us."

Following Yuan Shu, Yan Xiang spoke.

At this time, Yuan Shu didn't think that he was no match, and said with a proud expression. "The strength of the enemy is unknown, but it is really abominable to suddenly take down several cities in our Zhongjia country. It is even more abominable than those magicians and witches. When my general Ji Ling returns, he will definitely crush them."

"At the beginning, we have notified General Du Jiling stationed in the border area, and now he should have received the news and is on his way back."

"Let's go back. With the situation of Shouchun City, it can be defended for several years. When Ji Ling and Qiao Rui come back, we will destroy the enemy in one fell swoop."

But on this day, Qinghe's troops besieging the city did not launch a surprise attack. Di Feng was watching the news from other troops in the large tent of the Chinese army.

This morning, the last city on the boundary line between the new and old areas of Zhongjiaguo was occupied by Hu Sanniang, and the South Route Army and the North Route Army joined forces.

Di Feng immediately appointed Sejuani as the commander-in-chief of the temporary corps, subordinated to the Snake Bone Corps, Desert Jackal Corps, and Red Dragon Corps to garrison the city and block the enemy's possible reinforcements from the east.

At the same time, Hu Sanniang's wolf totem army was ordered to attack everywhere and destroy the remaining four unoccupied cities in Zhongjiaguo.

In response to Di Feng's order, Hu Sanniang divided the entire wolf totem army into two parts, and raided the city where there were no elite troops stationed. The artillery blasted the city gate, and the infantry could rush in quickly.

These city defenders are no match for the Wolf Totem Legion at all.In just one day, the Wolf Totem Legion went down to four cities and occupied all ten cities outside Shouchun City.

At the same time, reinforcements from the rear arrived, and 1 militiamen took over the garrison of ten cities. 1 people from the Faith Legion and [-] from the Wolf Totem Legion could be transferred back to strengthen the defense.

At the same time, because of Di Feng's rapid progress, he took down ten cities in a short time and surrounded the opposite lord and ten cities.

The second batch of [-] militia troops mobilized from Qinghe City is coming quickly, and at the same time, a group of officials are accompanying the army, preparing to take over the ten cities.

As for the four cities that have just been taken over, it is not a problem to have [-] troops guarding them. For the city, according to the rules and regulations of Qinghe, the soldiers were ordered to be safe, and the homes of those noble and landlords were raided.

The people of the entire county were summoned to identify the big families and landlords who oppressed him, and finally carried out public executions.

Afterwards, it took only a few days to divide the land, distribute food, and form militias. After public trial meetings, the four counties became the territory of Qinghe Territory.

After the formation of the militia, the formation of four thousand guards and some city guards, the original five thousand militia troops did not need so many.

There are 2000 people left, of which 1000 are middle and high-level cadres of various units, governing a large number of newly recruited local troops, and 1000 are elite troops directly under the county captain.The remaining 3000 people took over other cities from other field forces and started a new security management.

At this time, the follow-up troops arrived, and the field troops who were originally responsible for the security of the city regrouped and fought according to the order.

At this time, the number of troops surrounding Shouchun City reached 7, including the Wolf Totem Army, Yellow Turban Army, Sharp Army Army, and Faith Army Army.

On Sejuani's side, 3 soldiers from the Snake Bone Legion, the Desert Jackal Legion and the Red Dragon Legion blocked the [-] reinforcements brought by Ji Ling, whom Yuan Shu was thinking of.
