(Non-original) Fengyue Continent Episode 36 [End] (3/4)

Episode 36, Chapter 8: The Winter of the 540th Year of the Fast Calendar was just like the current situation on the mainland, it came quickly and violently! News came from the distant East Japan. In the past about two months since the Fast army set out for East Japan, with the full assistance of Kannazuki Yukihime and the majority of the people of Eastern Japan, they overthrew the tyranny in one fell swoop and helped Kannawu. Yuexueji took revenge and regained the throne. Moreover, when Kannazuki Yukihime came to the throne, she led all the Eastern Japanese people to follow the example of Yunyang and join the Fast Empire. Near the end of the year, the area east of Fast was successfully captured with almost no bloodshed. Combined with Fast's current situation of using troops everywhere, it is logical to capture Wu'an, Yasu, Chuyue and Pali, and the great cause of unification can be said to be on the way. reached a new level. On the Chu-Yue front, after nearly two months of fighting, the Shura army has captured the capital of Chu-Yue, with its sword pointed directly at the northwest region of Chu-Yue. The retreating Dark Knights gradually retreated to the area. This time, the two sides fought again in Chu-Yue. Hujuzhou, an important town in the northwest, suffered. If the Dark Knights lose this state, they will face a situation with nowhere to retreat. Shura led his troops to pursue the troops to the foot of Hujuzhou City, but was not in a hurry to launch an attack. After two consecutive months of fighting, he had completely figured out the Dark Knights' tactics. They do not have the overall combat strength of a regular organized corps, and they are completely amateurs when it comes to positional warfare and mobile warfare. Their advantages are mainly reflected in their individual soldier capabilities and SMall-scale combat advantages. Therefore, if the opponent adopts a break-up style to launch urban street battles to defend the city, to a certain extent, they have to guard against it. However, these purely tactical issues are not Shura's main consideration. In fact, now there is only the Dark Knights who control the area in the northwest corner. It won't take long for them to have problems themselves. Based on the current situation in the northwest region of Chuyue, most of the people have already fled this land of disputes. As time goes by, the farmland is deserted and the market is depressed. What do the Dark Knights use to pay their generals and what do they use to ensure logistical supplies? As long as Fast's army guarded the main entrance and exit to the northwest. As time went on, the opponent was defeated without attacking. Out of this consideration, Shura garrisoned troops under the city, and drilled the sergeants all day long, as if they were about to launch an attack at any time, but in fact they were waiting for the opportunity to wait for the opponent to mess up their position. But on the surface, Shura is still ready to deal with any changes at any time. If the opponent sees through the mystery and takes the initiative to attack Fast's army, then Shura is also waiting with a net, ready to wipe out Chu Yue, the last force at any time, and strive to capture the entire Chu Yue in advance and give Ye Tianlong a satisfactory share. results. On the other hand, just as Shura led his army to wipe out the evil forces that had retreated to the northwest corner of Chuyue, the Gods, who seemed to flaunt themselves as righteous, finally couldn't bear it anymore and took the lead in taking action in Pali. However, the current location where the Gods are taking action in Pali is not the Faster area, but the Ludian occupied area where they have conquered territory but have chaotic governance. As mentioned before, although the Ludian army captured a vast territory that exceeded Fast, its extensiveThe situation of rule and chaos has created a complicated social situation here. The Gods have a wide market here. After this period of brewing, it seems that they are ready. General Shi Xuguang and General Qingji were very vigilant about this. Although the Protoss had not invaded the Fast jurisdiction at present, they understood that the Protoss' appetite was not just the Ludian jurisdiction, but the entire Pali, or even the entire continent. Therefore, while quietly watching the battle between the Gods and the Ludian army, they had already made secret preparations. It is said that in the Ludian area, the long-term chaos since the occupation may have made the Ludian soldiers a little broken, so they are almost numb to the various events that occur in their area every day. It was at such a moment that the Gods suddenly appeared from various places in the Ludian area, gathered some people who had lost their judgment and were hostile to the Ludian army, and launched a surprise attack on the Ludian army in various places under their jurisdiction. It was like a sudden riot that caught the Ludian army by surprise. By the time they wanted to investigate the truth of the matter and respond, it was already too late. Just like the vast ocean separated Ludian's scattered army like isolated islands, by the time they understood what was going on, their battlefield initiative had been completely lost. The Protoss themselves have a strong strategic awareness. They seemed to have a regular Protoss army emerging overnight, and then established a so-called self-defense army composed of a large number of participating people. The Ludian troops who were separated were unable to form a joint force. They watched helplessly as the protoss army led a group of so-called rabble to defeat them one by one, divide them and eat them. The precise planning ability shown by the Protoss in this battle shocked Ye Tianlong who was far away in the imperial capital. Therefore, he kept reminding himself in his heart that he must never let such tactics of the Protoss appear again against the Fast army. on the battlefield. The same news came back to Ludian, and the young King Dan was absolutely furious. He spent such a high price to capture more than half of Pali's territory, and it was so easily taken away by the gods. This made him feel great shame! After being angry, he was determined to regain the territory robbed by the Protoss at all costs, so he immediately ordered the recruitment of troops, food and taxes from the country, hoping to form a new force as quickly as possible to seize the lost land from the Protoss. Go in the battle. Although the idea was good, the young king had no idea that as soon as the decree came out, it immediately aroused public resentment across the country. How did he know that in order to launch a war to invade Pali, the burden on the domestic people was already overloaded. Although it seemed that a large amount of property was plundered from Pali at that time, in fact, compared with the direct economic cost of launching this war, it was a win-lose half. The huge military salary and logistics expenses had just been covered, and the common people did not feel it at all. What does this war bring to them? I already feel that I have not gained any benefits from the war, but the burden has increased. I am already very dissatisfied with the government. This time the government has increased taxes again, and the people feel that they have no way to survive. How can they not complain! of course, Ji Wujiu secretly added fuel to the fire and took advantage of it.This opportunity can be said to have plunged Ludian into a chaotic internal crisis. Some people may think that this would not be a great favor to the Protoss. If Ludian was asked to reorganize a force to retake the lost territory and contain the Protoss in that chaotic area, wouldn't it be more beneficial to the Fast army? But everyone should not forget that the ambition of the Gods to dominate the world is obvious. Sooner or later, they will have to fight Fast. And Ludian will be the target of Fast's elimination sooner or later. Since the battle with the Gods is inevitable, and there is a chance to mess up the situation in Ludian, what's the harm in fighting the Gods earlier? Yes, indeed. After the Gods seized most of the original Pali area from Ludian with lightning speed, and seeing that Ludian was unable to take any measures, they quickly organized their troops and pointed their finger at the Fast jurisdiction, which was like another peaceful world. In this regard, the majority of Fast soldiers were not surprised at all. They were fully prepared, as if they were waiting for the Gods to show up. On the last day of the 540th year of the Fast Calendar, people across the continent may not be ready to celebrate the New Year, because this is a year of great changes. Many people don’t know when this continental melee that has lasted for a whole year will end. For all the Fast soldiers in Pali, on this day they ushered in the attack of the most powerful enemy-the Gods! As the saying goes, when troops come, the water will be covered by the earth. The Fast army, which had been prepared for a long time, looked calm and excited when facing the attack launched by the Protoss Legion. They were calm because they were mentally prepared for the Protoss Legion to attack Fast sooner or later, and they were excited because after a long wait, they finally had a great opportunity to make achievements on the battlefield. Everyone was holding a breath in their hearts, and they must be there. Kill more enemies on the battlefield and win the entire battle. Although the Shi Xuguang Division of the Fengwu Legion and the Red Cavalry Legion belong to two major legions, just like when they first met, although their structures are different, the actions of the soldiers are under the unified command of Shi Xuguang and Qing Ji. Facing the ferocious offensive of the Protoss, the two legion commanders were calm and commanded the thousands of troops to first keep the Protoss legion out of their jurisdiction, because they had studied and decided before the war not to let the war spread again to the already prosperous and stable areas. from the jurisdiction. After a night of fierce fighting, the Protoss Army failed to break through any of Fast's positions. With the arrival of the first ray of dawn in the new year, the Fast Army blocked the Protoss Legion outside a SMall town called Yuanping outside its jurisdiction. On the other hand, after the Chu Yue Shura army blocked the Dark Knights for nearly half a month, on the day of the New Year, the other party finally couldn't stand it any longer and made a desperate move to launch a breakout attack on the Fast Army. Shura didn't know the leader of the entire Dark Knights, but if Yunaya was still alive, he would definitely remember that cold face. Yes, he was the Bloodwing who broke through the restrictions and came to the mainland. Kunli, the leader of the demon clan. It seems that after he chose to cooperate with the Yasu Orcs, he won the cooperation of the Temple of the Moon. This time he leads the Dark Knights composed of three major forces, which is enough to show his tyrannical strength. Led by ShuraThe main force was stationed outside the city of Huju Prefecture with five battalions in the front, middle, back, left, and right, and the rest of the troops were distributed in fortresses and fortresses in the northwest corner of Chuyue in accordance with the strategy of blocking the Dark Knights. Seeing that the Dark Knights finally couldn't resTrain themselves from taking the initiative to break out of the encirclement, Shura almost snickered. Now looking at the territory of Chuyue, he can be said to have laid a dragnet. As long as the Dark Knights abandon their defense and attack, they will be fish caught in the net, allowing him to be slaughtered by Shura. Sitting on his horse, Shura sneered and ordered the army: "The entire army retreats twenty miles!" Immediately, when the Dark Knights left the city and took the initiative to attack, Fasi, who had been stationed outside the city for more than half a month, The extraordinarily large army retreated. The time left for the Dark Knights is really awkward. They should pursue them. It has been too long and they are afraid of falling into an ambush. After all, they watched the Fast army retreat on their own initiative. They should not pursue them. It was not easy to make up their minds. Taking the initiative to break out of the encirclement, this time it can be said that they have missed the target with one move. It is really not worthwhile to retreat into the city. Suddenly, the Dark Knights headed by Kun Li fell into an embarrassing dilemma. "Send a team of 100 people to investigate. No matter what the situation is, report it as soon as possible!" Kunli, hidden under the black robe, waved his riding crop and pointed in the direction of the Fast Army's retreat and ordered. "Yes!" A soldier immediately took the order and left. After a while, a group of elite cavalry was seen chasing the Fast army in the direction of retreat. Less than half the time it took to burn the incense, a soldier who had just followed Jingqi to investigate came to report that fifty stones of grain and grass were found eighTeen miles ahead, and he came to find Fast's army. Kunli felt as if he had found a treasure when he heard the news. Nothing could touch his heart more than hearing the word "food and grass". The army had already been living off porridge, and receiving fifty shi of grain and grass this time undoubtedly stimulated everyone's nerves. Naturally, they would not think carefully about why they found these things there. "The army advanced eighTeen miles and set up camp where they found food and grass. After the army had a good meal and rest, it launched an attack on the Fast army. Haha, I guess they were frightened when they saw us taking the initiative to attack." Kun After all, Li had no experience in commanding troops to fight, and he was extremely hungry these days, so he had no regard for any military common sense. A staff Officer next to him said: "Commander, this matter is a bit strange. We should discuss it in the long term!" Kunli probably only had the fifty stones of food and grass in his eyes at this time. He could not hear the staff's correct analysis, but he still diSMissed it. : "There is something strange. It must be the food and grass left behind by the Fast army in a hurry. The army obeyed the order and set off immediately!" I saw the staff member shaking his head aside. Although he was dissatisfied, it was difficult to disobey the military order, so he could only implement. After marching for less than a stick of incense, the Dark Knights finally arrived eighTeen miles outside Hujuzhou City and seized the fifty stones of food and grass. They did not notice any unusual behavior by the Fast Army until the afternoon. Therefore, the Dark Knights safely set up camp there, stationing the main forward battalion of the army here, and the main force of the Chinese army stationed fifTeen miles behind. Tasted the sweetness of fifty stones of food and grass, and believed that it was indeed not a conspiracy of the Fast Army, Kunli even moreHe remains firm in his decision to advocate taking the initiative. After dinner, after all the soldiers had a full meal, Kunli decided to set off overnight and continue to pursue the retreating Fast army. This time, many soldiers also supported the coach's decision. After all, the coach's previous decision made them full. The camp had just been set up, and after just one dinner, the camp was set off under the command of the coach Kunli. There will be no moon in the night on the first day of the new year

. Although everyone in the Dark Knights practices dark-type skills, the entire The army had to march at night and it was dark, so they had to use a few torches. Therefore, when the entire Dark Knights set up camp and marched, the torches in their hands looked extremely bright in the dark night. All this is under Shura's nose, but his big show has not yet begun. He wants to continue playing with this weird black-robed monster. He deployed and retreated all the way, leaving fifty stones of food and grass for the Dark Knights every time, because he knew that fifty stones of food and grass was only enough for two meals for them, and he wanted them to be full to acCompany him in this big show. ! After chasing for more than 150 miles continuously, from night to dawn, Kunli also recovered the 150 stones of food and grass that Fast specially left for them three times. Along the way, from the beginning I saw sporadic Fast Army equipment, to now I saw a large number of Fast Army armors and weapons, showing the scene of the Fast Army fleeing desperately. Kunli completely relaxed his vigilance. If he was still a little nervous about the previous pursuits, now he was completely convinced that the Fast Army had fled. After chasing for two hundred miles, they arrived at Wenzhong City, another state city. The spies came to report that there was no one in the city. It seemed that the Fast Army passed through the city during its retreat. Although there were no people left, there was still a lot of radiation heavy equipment in the city. Kun Li, whose self-confidence was already extremely high, had no time to think about it, and immediately ordered all the troops to enter the city and set up defenses. In his opinion, this initiative to break out of the encirclement had gained a lot, and he had already captured a city in one day. It was afternoon, and all the soldiers of the Dark Knights had entered the city. The soldiers were collecting various supplies in the city, and they were extremely busy. However, just as they were celebrating the victory of a city in the city, within a radius of ten miles outside the city, Fast's hundreds of thousands of troops had surrounded Wenzhong City like iron barrels. The entire Wenzhong City became an isolated city in an instant, and the 100,000 main force of the Dark Knights became turtles in the jar in an instant, waiting only for Fast's army to come and capture them. Shura has been planning this game from the beginning. He has been planning this big game since he discovered that the Dark Knights could not hold back and were ready to take the initiative. The fifty stones of food and grass left for Kunli along the way were like bait for fishing. Once Kunli became addicted to it and felt comfortable eating, he would follow him all the way with complete confidence, and naturally he would station himself in Wenzhong City without any precautions. . During the two days of retreat deployment, he had alreadyHaving figured out the situation of the Dark Knights, they have also mobilized all the other troops blocking them. This time they finally succeeded in surrounding the opponent. The next step is to see how they can eat this group of confident evil forces. When the Dark Knights found themselves besieged by the Fast Legion in Wenzhong City, they regretted it, not to mention how intense it was. Especially Kunli, this time it was clear that he had led the 100,000 soldiers into a dead end. Even if he and his subordinates with strong skills could break through the encirclement, the 100,000 soldiers would undoubtedly be annihilated. In this sense, the Dark Knights have given up resistance mentally. Although they responded quickly on the surface and strengthened city defense and other measures, facing the siege of Fast's army that was several times their own, they knew that this time they would not be able to fly even if they had wings. Moreover, they knew that the more fatal problem was still the food and grass problem. The so-called abundant food and grass that the spies came to the city to explore was in fact, except for some of the truth on the surface, the rest was all carefully disguised by the Fast Army. According to the latest estimates, even if the food and grass in the city are used in the most economical way, it can only last three days. After three days, even if the Fast army does not attack, they themselves will starve to death. Many soldiers feel useless when they think about this. . And Shura's military progress has indeed been very rapid after joining the Tianlong Legion. He knew the situation in the city, so he was unwilling to annihilate the enemy with a hard attack at the cost of more soldiers' lives. He still adopted the strategy of siege but not attack. He believed that either the enemy would be anxious and bear the psychological pressure of the previous failure and take the initiative to break out again, or they would hold on until they ran out of ammunition and food. No matter which one of these two outcomes it is, he believes that he can completely annihilate his opponents. The difference is that the second one may result in fewer deaths! The iron-barrel-like siege caused great psychological pressure on the soldiers of the Dark Knights. In addition, Shura specially sent people to lure the enemy with delicious delicacies under the city. After only one night of siege, there was a great commotion within the Dark Knights. Shura resorted to damaging tactics again and simply sent soldiers with loud voices below the city to incite rebellion against the soldiers on the city wall. Regardless of whether he can win it over or not, at least the repeated troubles have made the other party panic and unable to sleep well. Less than three days later, at noon of the next day, the soldiers of the Dark Knights guarding the city gate actually opened the city gate, and then lined up neatly out of the city to surrender. This move puzzled Shura for a while. Could it be that it was really because he sent a few soldiers to instigate rebellion under the city that it was effective? This is too exaggerated. I originally wanted to instigate a few weak-willed soldiers to influence their mOrale, but I didn't expect that all 100,000 Dark Knights soldiers were instigated. What a miracle! However, when Shura accepted the other party's surrender, he understood it after careful questioning. It turned out that the soldiers discovered early in the morning that their coach Kunli and several core staff were missing. After careful inspection, they realized that Kun Li, seeing that the situation was over, took a group of cronies and relied on his unique skills to leave behind a hundred thousand troops and flee. If the coach is like this, what else do the soldiers have?Keep the faith. Several wise generals gathered together and saw that the situation was over and that stubborn resistance would lead to death. The commander-in-chief had run away, so what else could they insist on? So they simply decided to surrender happily to avoid bringing one hundred thousand soldiers to the road of death. In this way, Chu Yue's last stubborn resistance ended with such a dramatic ending. At this point, the entire territory of Chu and Yue was in Fast's hands, and other minor issues were no longer a concern. Just as Shura promised Ye Tianlong, he captured Chu Yue in less than three months!
