Chapter 170 Bloody Battle (3)

10days ago traverse Novels 9
After Liu Litao, the commander of the Fourth Army of the Free Army of Maoming Prefecture, retreated to Maoming City and two medium-sized towns south of Maoming City, he retreated all the troops of the Fourth Army to Maoming City and stationed two divisions in Maoming City, and one division in the other two towns.

If it was just an order issued by Chief General Ji Wumou, perhaps Liu Litao would argue with reason and insist on fighting with Qiu Haoran and Qiu Shuitao from Zhanjiang Prefecture, Shunde Prefecture, the Yunyuan Legion, and the Shunde Legion led by Qiu Haoran and Qiu Shuitao, who went south from Zhanjiang Prefecture, Shunde Prefecture, and the Shunde Legion led by Qiu Haoran and Qiu Shuitao.

Although the Fourth Legion was formed shortly after it was formed, Liu Litao believed that with the advanced ordnance of the Free Army and the ever-improving individual combat power, the increasingly mature combat formation cooperation... he would definitely have the power to fight with the two legions of the Qiu Yulong Army!

Qiu Haoran's Yunyuan Legion was a team of the original Zhenbao Division and was recruited in Zhanjiang Prefecture. In addition to generals at all levels, the Shunde Legion led by the Jade-faced Tiger Qiu Shuitao was basically the new army and the surrendered army, which was far inferior to the combat power of the Free Army Reserve!

The Heaven and Earth Skills, the Breaking Void Skills and other merits were first widely circulated under the rule of the Free Alliance, setting off a large number of ordinary people to practice martial arts. The Liberation League implemented the militia system and provided a large number of soldiers with excellent physical fitness and martial arts foundations for the Liberation Army's several major expansions.

Although the Fourth Legion was transformed from the reserve force, it had to pass extremely rigorous tests to select each reserve force. In terms of individual combat power, these soldiers were no less than veterans with certain qualifications and insights in the past, and they just lacked the experience of battle formation and the test of blood and fire. However, under the training of generals and veterans at all levels who have experienced the test of blood and fire several times, plus the best equipment and weapons, and the outstanding record of the Free Army winning every battle, the soldiers of the Free Army have always been very morale. Even if they compete with the Jade Dragon Army, which is twice as many as their own, Liu Litao is definitely sure that they will not be defeated!

It took countless manpower and material resources to make a major retreat, and handed over the area in the north and east of Maoming Prefecture to the invaders, which made most of the soldiers of the Fourth Legion not understand, but Liu Litao issued a strict order: Those who violate the order will engage in military law!

As one of the oldest generals of the Free Army, Liu Litao could not obey the command of the Chief of Staff, and could even use the orders of the general outside the army to be unacceptable. He would not dare to violate the orders of the leader issued by Liu Yufei, but he would never dare to violate the orders of the top secret number 2. During the training of the base, a secret order was personally given by Marshal Hua Yinghong.

Hua Shuai, who claimed to be in seclusion, seemed to have expected what happened today. He secretly arranged the preparations for a large retreat more than ten days ago. A large number of carriages and other means of transportation were transferred to Maoming Prefecture. The two towns, Zhaoqing Town, which are southeast of Maoming City and about 30 miles southwest, also dispatched 40,000 soldiers and 100,000 well-trained migrant workers in Zhenbao Island to expand the outer wall day and night. Now it has begun to take shape, which is four feet high! All of this shows that this battle was long under the Marshal's calculations...

The son of Freedom Hua Yinghong is young and looks very ordinary. Under normal circumstances, he will not show aggressive domineering aura. However, no one dares to underestimate his wisdom and means, at least Liu Litao dares not! Since Hua Yinghong was able to transform him from a small leader of a slave slave into a lieutenant general who holds an army of 160,000 in more than four months, he can easily control him to never turn over! Perhaps not only Liu Litao himself thinks so, but perhaps this is an idea that almost all the Free Alliance and the Free Army have...

Report! Qiushi Yunyuan Legion and Shunde Legion have entered the northern part of Maoming Prefecture and went south for thirty miles...

Report! Warships flying maple leaf flags and flying dragon flags were found in the Treasure Strait, and the landing area can be 60 miles away from the southeast of Maoming Prefecture...

Has the people retreated into the city to resettle? Liu Litao couldn't help but feel deeply moved when he heard the military newspaper. If the Fourth Legion was still fighting against Qiu Haoran in the northern region, no one would have thought that the long-standing hatred would be difficult to resolve for many years, and the Long family and the Qiu family, who had just had a bloody battle in life and death, would turn wars into jade and join forces to deal with the Free Army!

The aristocratic families' hatred and concern for the Free Alliance can be seen from the fact that the Dragon Family and the Qiu family's maritime coalition stabbed the southeastern area of ​​Maoming Prefecture and captured Maoming City in one fell swoop, the Fourth Legion would not be able to fly except for being surrounded and annihilated!

If the Fourth Legion is annihilated, nearly one million people from Qiu and Long clan coalition advance from east to west, Tenglong Port, Changlong City, Dongguan City... No matter how strong the combat power of the Free Army is, the entire defense line will collapse like a domino!

If you show off your courage for a while, you will become a sinner forever. Liu Litao and Hai Tianqing have some similar temperaments. They like to fight with real swords and guns. Thinking of a secret order issued by Marshal Hua Yinghong to himself. The words in this sentence are so fierce. I have never heard of it before. Finally, I understand the reason.

Maoming City, Bao'an Town and Zhaoqing Town have received a temporary evacuation of 1.5 million people. There are still about 700,000 people in the palace who are unwilling to leave their homes, or they have not yet withdrawn from the interior department because they are remote and have prepared a large number of tents. The indigenous residents in the city are also very cooperative, and there will never be anyone who dies of cold and starvation.

After hearing Liu Litao's question, Yuan Sitong, who was formerly the leader of the Nanhai branch of the Restoration Association and is now the director of the Military Information Department of the Fourth Legion, replied: However, dozens of cases occurred in the three cities, including the Qiu family and the Long family masters attacked key departments, and arson, and other situations. The security department and the military information system are cooperating with the garrison to capture and kill.

Is there any special master to disrupt the hearts of the people? Liu Litao seemed not surprised. It would be strange if the Free League openly accepted immigration policy, coupled with the large-scale acceptance of people into the city without any scrutiny within one day, and there would be no spies in the city.

No masters with the Holy Level level have been found to take action. Yuan Sitong replied: The news from all over the world is that those who are the most skilled in the rebels are only seventh or eighth grades. Although there are as many as thousands of people, they are not opponents of the Ministry of Security, Military Intelligence Department and the garrison. It is estimated that the losses will not be too great.

Sitong, don’t take it lightly. Liu Litao said with a serious expression: The enemy’s actions are just a trick to confuse the enemy. He ordered hunting teams everywhere to keep the task in mind. He did not see the enemy’s masters of the holy level or above level, and he would not take action!

Yes! Yuan Sitong is not unfamiliar with the Fourth Legion. The Military Intelligence Department and the Maoming Prefecture Security Department all have a large number of experts going to the Top Secret No. 2 base for training in batches. After returning, he draws special personnel to form the Hunting Team. The Army Intelligence Department is temporarily controlled directly by the Legion Commander. The Military Intelligence Department is only responsible for passing orders.

As far as Yuan Sitong knows, with his cultivation level of the first level of the Saint level after training, he would only need one concentrated attack to attack a hunting team of thirty people! For such a hunting team, the Fourth Legion formed a total of fifty teams...

The real battle is when the enemy is at the city. We strictly prevent the enemy from colluding with each other inside and outside to break the city, but victory must belong to us. Although we are about to face a million troops, Liu Litao was not afraid at all: Since the establishment of the Free Army, we have always defeated the strong with the weak, and the more we fight, we have become stronger with the results. There are too many such achievements.

Why did the soldiers of the Free Army fear an unprecedented battle that was expected by the Marshal of China and made full preparations?

The fireworks and arrows that kept rising from the sky in Dongguan City, Dong! Dong! Dong! The beating war drums attracted the attention of countless residents in Dongguan City, no one could sleep when the Ding family's 480,000 troops came to attack the city!

Ding Zixing stood in the air on a tall nest car, almost looking down at the soldiers of the Ding family launching a siege against Dongguan City.

According to the information from the Ding family intelligence system: Qiu Shuibo personally led two legions to launch a real gun attack on Qingshuiling, and the battle was very fierce. The six major legions of the Qiu family and the Yangjiang Naval Army were all dispatched to launch a full-scale attack on the Free Army!

In any case, the Qiu family cannot play a double-act plan with the Free Alliance to plan all forces participating in the annual closing plan. So according to the previous agreement, the Ding family should also take over Dongguan City at any cost!

Ding's pre-war preparations were very sufficient: the troops from Binjiang Prefecture westward, the large number of troops from Wuling Prefecture and the troops trained by Ding in Beijiang Prefecture and Nanjiang Prefecture were secretly transferred back to the junction of Jianghan Prefecture and Tianshui Prefecture by escorting goods or carriages, or the line of Shilong Town where the troops were added to Dongguan Prefecture

No matter how powerful the intelligence system of the Free Alliance is or how strong the combat power of the Free Army is, on the front line of Shilong Town, the Ding family gathered 12 divisions and 480,000 people, plus two hundred holy grades and one thousand ninth grade guardians with such powerful strength to deal with the only division of the Free Army in Dongguan City, no reason to be defeated no matter what!

Perhaps because of the disparity in troops, in the north of Dongguan City, the Free Army also easily gave up the defensive positions built in advance and retreated directly to Dongguan City.

The Ding army headed south from Shilong Town, and the three cavalry divisions successfully cut off the contact between the west gate, east gate and the south gate of Dongguan City and the outside world, and the Changshengqiu Cavalry Division stationed in Yongda Town at the junction of Dongguan Prefecture and Changlong Prefecture, failed to enter the city to reinforce in time!

But what Ding Zixing regrets is that due to his incomplete trust in Qiu Shuibo, he waited until he confirmed that the Qiu family and the Free Alliance had really fought to the death and then rose up to the south, and thus missed the best opportunity to attack Dongguan City:

Intelligence System Report: The Fifth Corps of the Liberty Army, which set sail from Zhenbao Island North Port at almost noon on the 28th, will arrive at least three days, tomorrow afternoon according to the usual range. But just before Qiu Shuibo launched the general attack at the hour of Hai, Ding Zixing could not have expected that two divisions had secretly landed in Longtan Town and entered the south gate of Dongguan City before the Ding army sieges! With this time difference, the city wall is high and the moat is wide and deep, there are 80,000 more free troops in Dongguan City, and the difficulty of siege is more than ten times more!

Dante Zixing was not particularly worried: in addition to traditional siege equipment such as building cars and activity ladders, he also had the secret siege weapon nest car that he had never appeared before, the super magic crossbow car, the magic dragon blood bullet, and the family's super masters!

The nest car is a kind of siege equipment that is more than seven meters high. It is a combat room on the top, which can ride in more than twenty powerful crossbowmen or archers. The combat room is supported by steel frames from different angles. It is very stable. The combat room is surrounded by thin iron and thick cowhide and is coated with fireproof paint. Only ten combat holes are left for shooting.

If the defending party does not have sufficient firepower to suppress the city, thousands of movable nest cars can approach the city wall within a hundred steps, and almost 20,000 people will take turns shooting from top to bottom to the city wall. In particular, the imitation of the Liberty Army's Divine Machine Crossbow has been further improved and has the function of volley shots and continuous shooting. Combined with the nest cars, it is simply a super siege weapon!

The super god crossbow cart is a super god arm crossbow made of hard wood, horny, hard glue, mechanical accessories such as machine springs, and winch. It is placed on a giant steel frame cart, and then dragged by six well-trained war horses. One large steel crossbow gun after another is sent into the crossbow box trough, and then truncated one by one. Once the crossbow gun with a powerful impact force is fired, it is enough to pierce the shield of any material, or even easily penetrate the bodies of several people!

Inspired by the mobile catapult of the Free Army in the Fire Phoenix Huáng plan, researchers from the Ding family solved the movement problem of the super divine arm crossbow that was super terrifying but too bulky, suitable for defense rather than attack, and created a super divine crossbow, which is a powerful siege weapon that has powerful lethality for ninth-grade masters and even holy-grade masters!

In the battle with Sima Cheng in Wuling City, the magic dragon blood bomb and magic crossbow imitated by the Ding family exposed many loopholes and shortcomings, but it was the actual test that made the Ding family improve: since there were no magic archers who had practiced the archery technique of shooting the sun like the Free Army, the Ding family almost chose the same improvement method as Qiu Shuiliu to improve the structure of the large catapult and magic dragon blood bombs. Thousands of catapults can fire explosive new magic dragon blood bombs in more than 300 steps at the same time. Such a huge lethality is enough to make any guard frightened!

Standing between these siege equipment and behind the formation was the Ding family, a soldier of the Yulong Army under the Ding family, who was full of desire and eager to try, and failed the initial battle with the Free Army in Nanguao. He did not get any advantage in attacking Dongguan City. In Wuling City, he was secretly sold to Sima Cheng and his son by the Free Alliance to plot against the 20,000 Shenji crossbows that were secretly sold to Sima Cheng and his son... A new and old hatred in the village made the Ding family soldiers full of murderous intent for the Free Army without mobilization!

The north gate and city wall of Dongguan are fifteen miles long. The Free Army needs to defend all sides, and at most two divisions can defend the front. Even if people are employed to pile up, this battle will not be defeated!

Dong! Dong!... The war drum is even more urgent! Various siege weapons continue to advance...

Dong! Dong!... Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong The war drum is even more urgent as a storm! Various siege weapons have been moving forward slowly, and have been pushed to the distance of the north gate wall for more than 300 steps. Usually, various equipment suddenly accelerates at the edge of the attack range of the long-range strike weapons of the defense. Tens of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, pushing the city-killing cars, siege cars, moving ladders, and shields suddenly ran forward, and the high-altitude nesting cars, catapults, and super god crossbows that followed were also accelerated forward under the pull or push of war horses or human power!

Once you enter their respective attack areas, various powerful devices will launch overwhelming crazy attacks according to their respective attack procedures!
