Although the army's assembly speed was not slow, it was still a bit slow for Su Xing.
W looked at the quickly assembled army with surprise in her eyes. After all, she knew what Chernobog's previous army was like. Tallulah had sent people to scout before attacking Chernobog. It couldn't be called a mob, but it was almost the same.
This was not the first time she had seen Su Xing's army, but when she saw them gathering, she realized how fast this army was. There was an indescribable feeling about them, just like those people who had followed Queen Theresa before, there was faith in their eyes.
Su Xing deployed these troops to the weak points of the city, and then let them fight and retreat when they encountered the enemy, leading the enemy to the place he had prepared.
After receiving the order, the army set out quickly and soon dispersed to various weak points in the city.
As time went by, the army led by the nobles had arrived at the city of Chernobyl. When they saw the soldiers in the city were sure that they would flee immediately, contempt appeared in the eyes of these soldiers.
Obviously, this soldier's actions made these people more certain that the people who occupied Chernobyl were just a group of mobs, and they were scared and ran away as soon as they arrived.
Many soldiers laughed, thinking that this battle was too easy. Didn't these forces occupy the mobile city? Why did they send so many people to deal with such a useless force? The Marquis was still making a big fuss.
The leading general had a similar idea. After seeing the soldiers running away, he directly ordered the army to attack. Under the attack of the army, the city gate was quickly breached, and the army entered the city from various places in Chernobyl.
Su Xing, who was observing in the dark, nodded when he saw the enemy troops dispersed into the city. It seemed that the generals of the army were not too useless. They knew to disperse the troops into the city and did not let them rush in through the city gate all at once.
After all, those generals didn't know whether the enemy had set traps at the city gates. So entering the city in a dispersed manner was a more stable method. Even if there was an ambush at the city gate, it would not have much impact on the army.
As the explosions sounded at the city gate, many soldiers entering from there directly triggered the landmines buried by Su Xing, and many were directly killed by the explosion.
Su Xing: “Ah?”
He felt that this was the only word that could express his doubts.
Su Xing didn't understand what these troops were thinking? Were they just charging straight ahead? Didn't these people survey the area before they advanced?
W understood why Su Xing was so surprised. She was the same. After all, it was the first time she saw the regular army of Ursus. She originally thought it was a powerful army.
This is the result? Although W knew that these troops might not be as scary as he imagined when he saw them before, he didn't expect them to be so terrible?
Are these people definitely regular troops and not a mob?
Su Xing looked at the army whose hundreds of men had died and the speed of advance suddenly stopped. Then he looked at the ground in front of him cautiously.
After all, the explosion of the mines was deafening, and now they dared not move forward casually.
When the generals in the rear saw this, they hurriedly ordered them to advance carefully and to be on guard against the presence of mines on the ground.
Su Xing looked at the army's slowing pace and began to give orders to attack.
When these troops were advancing cautiously, the soldiers with crossbows in the dark began to take action.
Su Xing has no plans to expose the existence of firearms for the time being. Originally worried that the regular army was too strong, Su Xing was prepared to use rifles to deal with them. Unexpectedly, the army of this noble was so weak, so there was no need for Su Xing to expose the existence of rifles. Crossbows were enough to deal with these troops.
Moreover, Su Xing had no intention of engaging these people head-on. The city of Chernobyl was quite complicated, so Su Xing prepared to engage in street fighting and a war of attrition with the enemy's army, ready to use tactics to kill them.
Under the attack of crossbows, many soldiers died on the way forward.
The generals in the rear cursed upon receiving the news. They had lost a lot of soldiers before even encountering the enemy. This made the Marquis realize that he would suffer the consequences.
The general quickly adjusted the tactics, letting the shield guards defend in the front, and then letting the deminers do the mine clearance work, while the rest of the army kept an eye out for enemy attacks.
With the general's order, the army's advance speed increased a lot. Crossbows were useless against the shields of the shield guards, and the mines buried underground were found and cleared one by one by the demining soldiers.
Lev asked, "Marshal, the crossbow attack is no longer effective. Should we continue to harass them?"
Su Xing said, "Go on. It doesn't matter whether it works or not. We just need to lead them to the place we prepared in advance. As long as we can keep these people here, their next attack will take more time to prepare, and we can also take advantage of this time to develop."
Lev quickly ordered his men to continue the harassment while leading the troops towards the abandoned area.
After receiving the news, the crossbow team attacked more fiercely. Although the crossbows were useless against the shield guards, they could still harass these troops. While harassing them, they did not forget to lure these troops to the place where they were ambushed.
Chapter 36 Attack
The generals in the rear looked livid. They didn't expect that an unknown force would be so difficult to deal with.
The soldiers on the opposite side did not fight them head-on, but just hid in the dark and launched sneak attacks. Moreover, there was a landmine hidden on the ground from time to time, which would cause casualties in their own team if they were not careful.
After discovering that the advance was slowing down, the generals quickly came up with a new plan.
That is to send out drones for reconnaissance. As long as the enemy can be found, the only thing left to pay attention to is the mines.
With the release of the drone, the soldiers hiding in the dark and attacking were quickly discovered. However, when they saw the drone, the soldiers retreated directly, giving the other side no chance to besiege them.
After seeing this, Su Xing thought this was a good idea and the general on the opposite side was not too useless.
W curled his lips: "It seems that the general on the other side is not too bad either."
"Of course. Although there are many parasites in the Ursus army, there are also many capable people. Although this general is not so good, he still has some ability."
At this time, Herag next to him said: "The army and generals in the previous emperor's era were still very strong. I didn't expect that the army and generals now have become like this?"
"This is normal. After all, they are all human beings. Without firm ideas and principles, corruption and degeneration are inevitable. In addition, the death of the previous emperor and the lack of prestige of the new emperor make it impossible for him to suppress the nobles below.
There is no control over the dukes, so it is not surprising that the army under them has become like this."
"That's a good point. If people in the world learn the ideas and principles you talk about, won't they become corrupt?"
"Of course this is impossible. No matter how good the ideas and programs are, not everyone can accept them. And even if they do, it does not mean they will strictly implement them."
"So what you said is not nonsense?"
Su Xing shook his head and said nothing.
Although ideas and programs are important, what is more important is to have laws to constrain them. Without the constraints of the law, no matter how good the ideas and programs are, they are useless.
At this time, the enemy army had advanced a considerable distance, and all the buried mines had been removed by the deminers.
Su Xing was not surprised by this. After all, the enemy was a regular army. They were bombed before only because they did not take them seriously. However, after being taught a lesson by a few mines and the crossbow team, they obviously put away their contempt and no longer had the arrogance they had before.
The regular army, facing the enemy army, quickly demonstrated their true strength. The shield guards defended in the front, the deminers cleared the mines, the soldiers operating the drones looked for the crossbow team, and the rest of the army was always ready and would attack as soon as they found the enemy.
The crossbow team couldn't take action against these people. After all, the existence of drones made them very passive. As soon as the crossbow was fired, the drone would fly over immediately, followed by a team of soldiers.
With the army's practice, the crossbow team had to move to another location after shooting an arrow and could not attack at will.
Because that would quickly lead to being discovered, and then a group of soldiers would come looking for us.
Su Xing was not surprised after receiving the news. He asked the crossbow team to pretend to be defeated to lure the enemy army. When they reached the abandoned area, it was time to annihilate these soldiers.
As the crossbow team withdrew, the opposing army began to advance.
Behind the enemy, a soldier ran into the camp and said after seeing the general: "General, the enemy's crossbow team has withdrawn."
The general said, "Very good, just chase them. Also, don't forget to clear the mines while chasing them."
Under the order of the opposing general, the army began to pursue the crossbow team, but their familiarity with Chernobyl was obviously not as good as that of those who were born and raised here.
But the crossbow team did not get rid of them, but kept them hanging, making the opposing army think that they would definitely catch up.
As the army advanced deeper, the general was also wondering if there was a trap or something. The previous incident made him more cautious.
Thinking of this, the general stopped the army and waited for a while.
After receiving the message, Su Xing did not give any orders, but let the other party rest.
W was very curious and asked, "Why don't you attack while they are resting?"
"The other side is not stupid. They must have made preparations during the rest time. It won't cause any harm to them if we rush over now. It might even cause injuries or deaths to our people. That would be too much of a loss." Su Xing said.
"So you're going to continue to stalemate with them like this?"
Su Xing said: "What's wrong with this? Anyway, I can afford to waste time, and the other party doesn't dare to attack casually. If they continue to waste time like this, it will be even better. Maybe they will collapse on their own without us having to do anything."
W was stunned and asked, "What do you mean? Why did they collapse when they were fine?"
Su Xing looked at W with a hint of doubt in his eyes? As if to say, "You don't know such a simple thing?"
W's fist hardened, and he wanted to punch him. What's the meaning of your look at that idiot?
Su Xing retracted his gaze and explained, "You have to know that there are tens of thousands of people on the other side. These people need to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep. If they fight with us, they will definitely die.
After all, food and water for tens of thousands of people is not a small amount. Even if they have food and water, how long can they last?
Even if the logistics are up to par, transportation is still a problem.
You have to know that this is a snowfield. Transportation is difficult due to the extreme weather and muddy roads. Moreover, blizzards occur from time to time, making transportation even more difficult.
To put it bluntly, if I directly cut off their logistical supplies and then surrounded these people in the city, they would collapse within a few months.
I won't even have to do anything by then, they will just kill each other, after all, when people are hungry they don't care who you are."
After hearing this, W understood why the evil spirit did not attack, and even wanted to continue to fight with the opponent.
After all, with a mobile city as a supply station, the other side can only rely on the food they carry and logistical transportation. As a result, defeat is inevitable.
Apparently, the enemy's general had also thought of this possibility. If they went forward, they might have to face enemy traps, but if they continued like this, they would just be dying a slow death, and they would inevitably be defeated in the end.
After all, this is their home ground. You are fighting a war of attrition with the enemy on their territory. Isn't this like lighting a light in the toilet - looking for shit?
............
Three days later, the enemy general could no longer sit still. Regardless of whether there were traps on the other side or not, he had to attack now, otherwise he would be finished when the food was gone.
Although the logistics department is already transporting food, it is too easy for the other side to stop it. The people transporting food may be ambushed as soon as they enter the city.
If the food was intercepted by the enemy, the general could be sure that the soldiers under him would mutiny, so he had to attack and not waste time.
Chapter 37 Detonation
Su Xing was very happy after receiving the news. He was not afraid of your attack, but was afraid that you would not attack.
If these troops stayed stationed where they were, it would be difficult for Su Xing to take action. After all, tens of thousands of regular troops were not so easy to deal with, and these troops were not weak. A head-on confrontation would likely result in considerable casualties, which Su Xing could not accept.
Now that the other party has taken the initiative to attack, they have an opportunity. The People's Liberation Army has already ambushed in the abandoned area, waiting for the enemy's army to arrive.
As for whether the other party will take a detour to other places, there is no need to worry, because the abandoned area is the only road leading to the city. If the other party takes a detour, let’s not talk about where they will take the detour.
It was difficult to just get rid of the People's Liberation Army. After all, Su Xing had made all preparations before the other party came, and the other party had no choice.
Of course, unless the opposing general retreats now, they don’t have to worry about the ambush they may encounter during the attack.
However, Su Xing knew that this general would definitely not run away. After all, not only did the attack on Chernobyl cause no casualties to the enemy, but his own side lost hundreds of people. If the Marquis knew this information, there would be no good outcome.
Therefore, the generals will definitely not withdraw, but will find a way to attack Chernobyl, and it would be best if they could capture it. Only in this way will they avoid being blamed by the Marquis.
Su Xing looked at the advancing opposing army, hoping that they wouldn't collapse in the abandoned area?
You have to know that there is a minefield there now, and there are so many mines and bombs in it?
Su Xing just gave the soldier an idea at first, but when he went to the abandoned area again, he found that mines and bombs had been spread all over the abandoned area by the soldiers.
These people were very interested in laying mines and thought they could practice here as a rehearsal for future battles.
If that were the case, it would be fine, but God knows that this woman W was also involved. As a bomb fanatic, she knows much more about landmines and bombs than these soldiers.
She also made many useful suggestions on laying mines, and she was the one who laid the mines in many places.
Su Xing didn't bother to care about W's mines. Anyway, it was all for dealing with the Ursus army. With W's help, the layout of the abandoned area was advanced a lot. Su Xing was very happy about this, after all, it saved a lot of time.
On the other side, after the Ursus army entered the abandoned area, they immediately ordered the shield guards to defend in the front, and the surrounding deminers began to look for the mines buried here.
The opposing generals were also paying attention to the abandoned area. After all, the forces that ruled Chernobyl must have buried a lot of mines here after luring them here. Even the opposing soldiers should be lying in ambush in the dark, so they had to be extremely alert.
Everyone saw how cautious these troops were, and the soldiers hiding in the dark stared at them intently. They had no good feelings towards the Ursus army.
Some of the soldiers were Chernobyl natives. After joining the People's Liberation Army, they learned a lot of knowledge and learned that the nobles, mayor and army in Chernobyl had actually fled before the natural disaster came.
Moreover, they also knew about the attack of the Integration Movement. After hearing the news, many people soon realized that Ursus had abandoned them, so it would be strange for them to have a good impression of the Ursus army.
Moreover, the nobles and patrol teams of Chernobog have been doing evil all the time. If it were not for the forces led by Marshal Su to repel the integration movement and occupy the city of Chernobog to control it out of the range of the natural disaster, who knows how many people in Chernobog would have died by now?
Therefore, after learning, the soldiers who joined the People's Liberation Army gave up their belief in Ursus and switched to believing in Su Xing.
Moreover, I learned from other soldiers that Marshal Su wanted to overthrow Ursus and establish a world where everyone is equal.
Although these people find this ideal difficult to achieve, it does not prevent them from hoping to succeed.
