Pingluo City is not big, but it is extremely strong. The city wall is as high as two battles. A large number of stones are used as the foundation, and there are a large number of fortresses connected to the outside. It is a complete battle fortress.

The most frightening thing is that the majority of believers here are loyal to the Ma family army and extremely hostile to the Han people, especially the army.Once the elders of the sect come out, they can call a large number of people to assist the army in defense, which is a very big threat to the attacking troops.Before formulating the battle plan, Rong Zhen put in a lot of effort to find out the situation in the city.

Based on various information, Rong Zhen believes that Pingluo must be captured as soon as possible, otherwise it will become a fortress to block the Feng army's attack, so Rong Zhen decided to implement surprise tactics.He led the soldiers quietly across the Yellow River on the ice, and touched the side and rear of Pingluo.

In the night, the engineer company rushed to the front with blasting tubes and explosives.Just when they were more than 500 meters away from the city wall, a black figure suddenly appeared beside them and shouted, "Who is it?"

After hearing this sound, the company commander Zhang Honggang knew that they had been exposed, and he was annoyed in his heart, so he waved his hand and shot, hitting this guy in the head.After the gunshots rang out, the quiet Ping Luo was completely confused, and a fortress not far away suddenly heard chaotic gunshots.

The person who was killed was a soldier in the fortress. He came out to pee, but he collided with Zhang Honggang and the others.Shots rang out from one fort, and other forts followed suit.When Zhang Honggang saw that the situation was not good, their task was to blow up the city walls to clear the way for the large army to attack. Once they were held back by these fortresses, they would not be able to achieve the purpose of the surprise attack.

So he hurriedly called two soldiers over, and said to them: "Use flamethrowers to destroy this fortress. All the others rush in with me!"

After the order was issued, Zhang Honggang led the men and horses to rush forward quickly. Bullets flew over their heads from time to time. Fortunately, the soldiers were well-trained. crawl forward.

Finally they managed to come below the city wall, Pingluo was close to the Yellow River.There was plenty of water, and there was a deep moat outside the city, but fortunately it was winter, and everything was frozen solid, which did not cause any trouble to the soldiers.

"Cross the river quickly. Put the blaster under the city."

The soldiers quickly divided into three groups, and used iron drills to cut small holes in the solid city wall.One after another, the blasting tubes were stuffed in.

Just then.There was also a patch of torches on the city wall. The defenders in the city were commanded by Ma Baolin, who was also one of Ma Fuxiang's most trusted generals. Among Ningma, he was also known for his courage. When he heard gunshots outside the city.Feeling that something was wrong, he hurriedly ordered his men to rush up the city wall.

Zhang Honggang was leading his troops to cover behind, and when he saw the crowds of people on the top of the wall, he knew something was wrong.So they fired in a hurry, and so did the other soldiers. The bullets from submachine guns and machine guns hit the wall like raindrops, splashing countless bricks, sand and stones, and Ma's army didn't dare to look up.

When Ma Baolin saw it, her eyeballs turned red immediately, "Fuck me, rush up and destroy them, other Han dogs approach the city wall."

These Ma family troops all rushed up again, and relying on their superiority in numbers, they began to fight back towards the city, and the three blasting teams also suffered casualties.However, these soldiers couldn't care less about anything. They successfully created three character-shaped holes, and stuffed ten blasting tubes into each hole.After doing this, the blasting team withdrew under the heavy bullets.

boom!boom!boom!Three loud noises came out one after another, like an earthquake, and the ground was shaking. Zhang Honggang and the others stood more than 100 meters away, propped their elbows on the ground, covered their heads with their palms, and drove most of them off the ground in order to weaken the vibration. Otherwise, this violent explosion can shatter the internal organs.

Even so, they were all messy and miserable, and everyone's ears were buzzing, and they couldn't hear anything clearly.The Ma family army in the city was worse than them. The sudden huge shock sent them all into the air, and fell to the ground hard, turning them into a pile of meat paste.

In the violent explosion, the solid city wall also began to shake, and countless huge cracks appeared on it. With a bang, a city wall more than [-] meters away collapsed, and the shell of the Ma family army in the city was finally knocked open.

As soon as Zhang Honggang and the others saw that they had completed the task, they immediately divided into two teams. He led the troops and continued to guard the gap to suppress the Ma's army.The other two companies charged back, knocking out the redoubts from behind and clearing the way for the main force to attack.

The collapse of the city wall was so spectacular that even in the dark night, there was a loud rumbling noise. Seeing that the engineers had succeeded, Rong Zhen immediately ordered the soldiers to launch an attack.

Other troops may worry when they encounter fortresses, but Fengjun has already experienced it in the Far East. After the war, Fengjun immediately summed up a whole set of tactics for dealing with fortresses. .

The Feng army used blasting tubes, cluster grenades, and flamethrowers to knock down one fortress after another. The army quickly followed the opened passage and rushed into the city.

Ma Baolin commanded the soldiers, using the ruins of the city wall as a cover, and wanted to fight against the Feng army. At this time, the mortars had already caught up. Twelve mortars aimed at the gap, and the shells fell like hailstones. Gunpowder smoke enveloped everyone, and the recalcitrant Ma's army was all blown to pieces, leaving no bones left.

The gate of the city was completely turned into a no-man's land. The Feng army rushed into the city through the thick black smoke. Any Ma family soldiers who resisted were shot dead on the spot, and the corpses were piled up everywhere.

In the chaos, Ma Baolin wanted to greet his subordinates and fight Fengjun to the death, but a shell happened to explode beside him, and the shrapnel cut off half of his head, his brains splashed everywhere, and he was completely dead.

Once Ma Baolin died, the Ma family army was leaderless and fled one after another. The people in the city wanted to help the Ma family army, but they didn't know what to do.

The battle lasted for more than three hours. By midnight, the Feng army had basically taken control of Pingluo. They killed more than 200 people from the Ma family army, captured more than 500 people, and less than 1000 people escaped.The portal in northern Ningxia completely fell into the hands of Feng Jun.

While Rong Zhen sent Zhang Tinglan a good news, he strengthened his control over the city. All the residents were gathered and detained in the prisoner-of-war camp.As for the elders in the temple, they also focused on taking care of them, and they were all arrested.Of course, there are also some temples who are not willing to be captured with nothing, so they rely on the ammunition they have privately hidden and want to fight Fengjun to the death, but they are all killed in the end, and they are not polite at all.

It was not until dawn that the city completely returned to calm. The Ma family army was killed, and those religious elements were also arrested. According to the original plan, these people were all escorted to Suiyuan and other places to serve as laborers for road construction. How many people survived depends on God's will.

Of course, Zhang Tinglan is not trying to engage in genocide, and the facts have proved that this strategy will definitely not work. Zhang Tinglan just wants to break up large settlements, let various ethnic groups live together, influence each other, and change each other. The problem of grouping.

No matter in any region, the number of Han people must maintain an advantage, at least 50.00% or more, and become the main force of local politics, economy, and culture, and other ethnic groups live in a moderate amount.Especially in complex places like the Northwest, the number of Han people must not only increase, but also the total number of any other ethnic group in a certain area cannot exceed 30.00%, and they must live scattered to ensure safety.

As for places like Pingluo, where the religious people have an absolute advantage, Zhang Tinglan had to kill and move everyone out.

While escorting the laborers, the follow-up troops of the Feng army also arrived one after another. A cavalry battalion and a heavy artillery detachment came one after another. The strength in Rong Zhen's hands increased a lot. A bomber came to support, which made Rong Zhen even more overjoyed, and he was ready to play a bigger one.

After taking Pingluo, the eyes naturally fell on the capital of Ningxia. The distance between the two places is 4000 kilometers, and it is completely within the attack radius of the bombers. With support, with powerful artillery, you will not suffer a loss if you fight against tens of thousands of Ma's troops, and you can even win easily.

Especially when the main force of the Ma family army was attacking the central defenders and entangled with Feng Yuxiang's troops, Rong Zhen seized this precious opportunity and immediately ordered the troops to move south quickly to attack the provincial capital of Ningxia and completely knocked out Ma Fuxiang's lair.

Xining has already fallen into the hands of Feng Yuxiang, and if Ningxia falls into the hands of Fengjun, the end of the Majiajun will really come.The Feng army was in full swing along the way. The first stop after leaving Luoping was Li Gang Fort, which was also a place with tight defenses. However, the fortress in the cold weapon era could not withstand the bombardment of heavy artillery. Rong Zhen used the heavy artillery battalion, twelve 150mm cannons In less than two hours, Fort Li Gang was completely reduced to ruins.

The Feng army occupied this place in an extremely arrogant manner, and the next step was to point at Xiejiabao. The Feng army, like a flood, was unstoppable.

Feng Jun went south quickly, and Ma Fuxiang, who was still in the central defender, also received a telegram. When he heard the news of Pingluo's fall, he trembled and fell into a sluggish state as if he had been hit on the head by a thunderbolt.

He was still cheering for victory in the last second. When Ma Jiajun had broken through the city wall of Zhongwei and compressed Han Fuju to the edge of the Yellow River, as long as he worked harder, these thousands of people would have to go to the Yellow River to feed the fish. Such a shocking change occurred just a short distance away.

Ma Fuxiang was also completely dumbfounded. Pingluo was not guaranteed, and Ningxia was uneasy. If Ningxia was not there, he would become a bereaved dog. Therefore, he couldn't care about anything, and immediately issued an order for the entire army to retreat and return to the provincial capital as quickly as possible. (To be continued..)
