"This shows that your father is powerful, doesn't it?" Liya said with a smile
"Hmph." Long Luxin hummed, but deep down she still agreed with what Leah said.
She still admires her father very much. She grew up listening to other people praising her father. Her father played an indispensable role in the fact that Longwu Kingdom has reached such a level today.
As the daughter of the emperor, others also hoped that she could surpass her father, but her father's achievements were too great for her to surpass!
But this time I have a chance. Since my father has given Britain to me, and I have brought a lot of scholars and knowledge here, I must develop a country that is no less powerful than Longwu Kingdom.
She has even thought of a name. From now on, Britain will be called "The Empire on which the Sun Never Sets"!
Of course, she didn't want to think about Asia and Europe. She planned to occupy the other states on the map that her father had hung in his study. That way, she could build a super empire that was no less powerful than her father's.
As Long Luxin thought about how he would build a super empire that was no less powerful than the Longwu Kingdom in the future, a silly smile appeared on his face.
But isn't the predecessor of the United States Britain? Long Luxin's idea may have a slight possibility of allowing history to return to its original track.
Although she had been informed in advance by her father, Long Luxin was still shocked by the war scene before her.
The enemy and our own soldiers are arranged into several phalanxes of different professions, and such phalanxes are set up to better play the characteristics of the phalanx.
For example, the knights charge into the battle, while the archers line up in the rear.
The other side seemed to know that Leah's troops were mainly long-range, and did not choose to defend the city, but all waited for their arrival in the wild.
"Why don't they choose to stay in the city? It's obvious that the city has more advantages." Long Luxin was a little puzzled.
Liya said calmly: "In fact, the reason is very simple. If you are defeated outside the city, you can escape, but in the city you can only be besieged. When there is no hope of victory, which one will you choose?"
"How do they know they will lose?" Long Luxin was still puzzled.
"The other side should have analyzed what weapons our troops are using. After all, firearms are no longer a secret, even in a remote country like Britain." Leah thought of the Western European envoys who had come to Wu Country before, and there were some British members accompanying them.
With the help of these British entourage members, the British people can quickly become aware of firearms. Just like Bedivere, although he has never seen one, he has heard of it.
"Is that so?" Long Luxin said with sudden realization.
As the drums sounded, the enemy cavalry regiment led thousands of cavalrymen and rushed towards the center of Leah.
If it was an everyday cold weapon battle, there might be some accidents on Leah's side and a little chaos, after all, the enemy's several thousand cavalry dared to charge into their main camp.
But now the times have changed. The soldiers on Leah's side did not show any signs of panic. Without Leah's orders, the generals had already begun to command calmly.
When these cavalrymen were halfway through their charge, Leah's side began to take action. Soldiers raised their rifles and aimed at the approaching cavalry regiment.
As the general shouted to shoot, countless fire snakes sprang out from the muzzles of the guns, making "bang bang bang" sounds.
Suddenly, the cavalry regiment that was charging was thrown to the ground, and countless flowers of blood bloomed in the air. The general who led the cavalry charge quickly deployed a magic barrier in front of him to intercept the bullets.
Chapter 209: Martial arts cannot defeat foreign guns!
Although his fighting power is high and he can stop these bullets, other ordinary cavalrymen cannot.
At the beginning, there were hundreds of soldiers charging along with him, but in a short period of time, only dozens were left, and the number was constantly decreasing as the enemy's gunfire continued.
When he rushed to within dozens of meters of the enemy position, he was the only one left by his side, and because he had been using magic power to form a barrier, he now had very little magic power left.
When he saw the enemy soldiers pointing their guns at him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. What a powerful weapon! He had practiced martial arts for so many years, but in the end he couldn't beat these foreign guns!
As the gunshots rang out, the magic barrier was broken, and countless blood spurted out of his body. He was shot into a sieve and finally fell headfirst to the ground. He looked at the sky and his vision gradually blurred.
In just a few encounters, this cavalry regiment of thousands of people was annihilated by the enemy, which really shocked the enemy.
The remaining enemy generals no longer had the slightest desire to attack. They shouted "retreat" in panic, and like dogs that had lost their homes, they used their hands and feet to run away, leaving behind countless supplies.
Those soldiers who ran slowly were trampled into meat paste by the cavalry, and their retreat turned into a rout.
After occupying the castle, Leah waited for news from the other side. Compared to how relaxed they were, Bedivere and his men were not so relaxed.
All the weapons used here were cold weapons, and all that was relied upon was personal bravery. Bedivere didn't know how many people he had killed, and his magic power was almost used up before he won this victory.
After completely occupying these two castles, the only thing left was how to capture the capital of Baiyang Kingdom.
After the two sides reunited, Leah discovered that there were fewer soldiers in Bedivere's army. It must have been a bloody battle.
After Leah talked about the battle plan for a while, she let the soldiers rest for a day, and then asked the local soldiers to act as pioneers to clear the way and eliminate any potential dangers, and her army would follow.
Not long after, Leah passed by a village.
She smelled a strong smell of blood in the village. Anyone who was familiar with the smell of blood frowned. Leah immediately ordered that no one was allowed to enter.
She walked in with a few people, and when she saw the corpses all over the ground, she immediately became angry.
"Well, these guys are really great!" Leah laughed out of anger. She had never expected that these defeated soldiers would be so brutal.
Why do we say that soldiers in ancient times were like bandits? It's because they would massacre villages and cities at will. What did the people do wrong to deserve such treatment?
Therefore, in ancient times, there was no such saying that soldiers and civilians were one family. Soldiers were definitely the people most feared by the common people.
As Leah walked and looked, she saw that these villagers had suffered great pain before their death. It could be said that all kinds of dismemberment were just small scenes. As for those women... they were not only violated but also brutally killed. It could be said that the whole village was like hell on earth.
"These damn guys!" Long Luxin clenched her fists. Long Luxin, who grew up with civilized education, had never seen such cruel behavior.
Smelling the strong smell of blood, she felt her stomach churning. She couldn't imagine that humans could be so horrible. What was the difference between these people and demons?
Leah calmed down. This kind of thing must not happen in her army. She must set rules for these soldiers as soon as possible, otherwise some generals might not be able to control themselves and do such things.
Bedivere had a serious expression on his face. He glanced at Leah and said, "These should have been done by the defeated legions. They took out their anger on the villagers because they lost the battle. This kind of situation is too common."
Leah nodded and said nothing more, but in her heart she had already sentenced these guys to death.
In fact, this kind of thing was very common in ancient wars. The most famous one was Boss Cao, who massacred cities at any time. According to historical records, his army massacred cities more than a dozen times, which was truly horrifying.
What’s even more ridiculous is that some people regard this behavior as Boss Cao’s true character.
Of course, Leah didn't want to comment on anything. After all, he was not the only one who massacred the city. He was just more famous. After all, everyone has read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms to some extent.
After having all the villagers buried, Leah continued on her journey with her army and arrived at the capital of Baiyang Kingdom at noon the next day.
At this moment, the soldiers of Baiyang Kingdom were looking nervously at the army outside the city gate. A great battle was about to begin.
Leah looked at the towering city wall in front of her, which was somewhat similar to the Chinese style, but not a castle type.
Leah thought about it and realized that the European castles were actually only suitable for cities with a small population. For larger cities, the Chinese style would be better, as only in this way could they accommodate more people.
Leah first sent out her familiars to fly in the sky and observe the surroundings of the city. This would help her know the enemy's deployment in advance and then make arrangements.
After Liya stopped observing, Long Luxin asked, "Father, are we going to attack now?"
Liya nodded and said, "Bedivere, lead your soldiers to surround the three gates of the city, south, west and north, and don't allow anyone to escape."
Bedivere nodded and commanded the soldiers to surround the city.
After Bedivere had done all this, Leah ordered her soldiers to launch hundreds of siege cannons.
So the battle lasted only about an hour under the bombardment of Leah's siege artillery, and the enemy raised the flag of surrender.
We have to surrender. We can't rush out of them, and we can't defend them. Don't you see that the city walls have been blown down?
Leah ordered the soldiers in the city to tie up their teammates one by one, and then walked out herself.
Since it was a surrender, most of the soldiers were concentrated at the north and south gates, while the people were still staying at home in panic.
In front of Leah were the assembled soldiers, and there was not much fear on their faces.
After all, soldiers are one of the important things that all those in power need, and they will not be killed easily. Moreover, they are all from the same country, and the most they can do is to break them up and assign them to different troops.
"Which regiment did the soldiers who guarded Rucheng and Lincheng belong to?" Leah asked Bedivere to ask.
Chapter 210: Of course it's killing
"Report to the captain, we are here to protect Rucheng."
"Report to the captain, we are here to protect Lin City."
After Bedivere asked, two captains stood up and took the initiative to admit that
Bedivere looked at Leah, who nodded to him and asked her to continue: "Ask them about the road that the team passed by the river."
"When you were fleeing, who passed by the road by the river?" Bedivere continued to ask. At this time, he already knew what Leah was going to do.
Find the team of soldiers who killed the villagers in that village. As for how Leah would punish them, he didn't know.
"Report to the captain, we are passing the road that passes by the river." After Bedivere asked the question, one of the team leaders immediately replied.
The other team leader shook his head.
At this time, Leah came up and asked the team leader who did not pass by the river to go down. Leah looked at the team leader.
Even though he was captured, he still looked arrogant. Even when Liya looked at him, he still dared to look at her with lustful eyes. Such an arrogant person could do anything.
"Let me ask you, did you massacre a village when you were at Bianhe?" Leah asked calmly.
Hearing this, the team leader immediately had a bad feeling in his heart, but his audacity also made him think that even if this was the case, Leah would not do anything to him. After all, the soldiers under his command listened to him. If Leah wanted to subdue his soldiers, she still had to go through him.
So he nodded and added.
"Yes, we asked them for some food, but those untouchables were ungrateful and cursed us, so we killed them all."
In this era, soldiers were much nobler than those untouchables. They were just a few untouchables. Just kill them. In his opinion, it was no big deal.
"I see." Leah nodded, glanced at Bedivere, and the two returned to the army.
At this time, a row of soldiers walked out from Leah's army, pointing their rifles at the squad leader and the soldiers behind him.
"Captain Bedivere? What are you going to do?!" Seeing this situation, the captain suddenly panicked. Not only him, but also the soldiers he led were in chaos.
Bedivere was too lazy to answer. Leah looked at the soldiers and said coldly, "Kill.
As Leah finished her words, the soldiers who had been prepared immediately shot at the group of evil soldiers.
These soldiers had their hands tied from the beginning and had no ability to resist at all. As the gunshots continued, the soldiers fell down in rows.
Some people wanted to escape, but Leah had already made preparations. Once these soldiers tried to escape, other soldiers would rush up and kill them until only one soldier was left standing.
As for those who are not dead, Leah will also send people to give them a finishing blow to ensure that no one is left alive.
As all the soldiers were killed, the remaining surrendered soldiers looked at Leah in horror. Didn't this girl even think about letting them live?
But now their hands were tied and they were powerless to resist.
After dealing with the group of demon soldiers, Leah looked at the soldiers who were afraid of her and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. These soldiers just violated the military regulations I set and were caught by me. As long as you strictly abide by the discipline in the future, I won't care about what you did before, but I will punish you if you are caught by me."
If we catch them, we will settle all the old and new accounts, whether it’s them or you!”
After Leah finished speaking to the captured soldiers, she looked at the soldiers led by Bedivere and her own soldiers.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. We, the soldiers, will never bully civilians at will. We always remember your Majesty's words that the military and the people are one family, and there is no home without the people!" Seeing Leah's gaze looking over, the leading general immediately expressed his loyalty.
Following his words, the soldiers behind him also shouted: "The military and the people are one family, and only with the people can there be a family!"
When Bedivere heard the soldiers' uniform voices behind Leah, he was stunned. What kind of discipline made this team so powerful and cohesive?
"Very good, I hope you will do the same in the future." Leah nodded and looked at the other soldiers.
"Yes!" the soldiers shouted in unison.
It can be said that Leah's tactic of killing the chicken to scare the monkey completely subdued this group of soldiers.
At this time, Liya looked at the group of nobles of Baiyang Country and said calmly: "Only the people can build the world and promote the prosperity of society, so this world cannot be separated from the people, so I hope that you people are the same and don't make the wrong choice."
After listening to Leah's words, these nobles all turned pale and nodded repeatedly. As for what they thought in their hearts, it had nothing to do with Leah.
Anyway, once she catches someone, she won't let him off easily.
Leah's killing had a decisive effect afterwards. Whether they were from the palace or the civilian soldiers, they all consciously or unconsciously made an unwritten rule that they would never kill innocent people.
This rule was also regarded by some knights as one of the eight virtues of chivalry.
After that, Leah led the soldiers into the palace, and she handed over the queen and her remnants to His Royal Highness the Prince to deal with their fate. Their life or death had nothing to do with her.
In the end, Leah also declared the legitimacy of His Royal Highness the Prince's throne and helped him regain the throne.
At this point, her promise to His Royal Highness the Prince was basically fulfilled.
And just when Leah wanted to fall asleep that night, Long Luxin came up to her.
"Father, I want to discuss something with you." When she arrived at Leah's room, Long Luxin first took a look at the layout of Leah's room, and then said to Leah.
"Xin'er, what do you want to discuss with father?" Liya smiled gently.
"Father, can you let me handle the affairs of Britain?" Long Luxin asked after hesitating for a moment.
Liya looked at Long Luxin in surprise, then said with a smile: "Xin'er, do you want to conquer Britain by yourself?"
