The severe time given by Gong Yi is not enough, but it is definitely more than the three or four days they said before.

But Yan Yan didn't dare to delay for a moment, and set off in the early morning, hurrying by the starlight.

It was not until the sun was high that people stopped to eat and rest.

When the sun was setting, Grim was on the road again, and they would not rest until midnight.

But this time it was only a short rest, because they had a long way to go before the sun rose.

Only in this way can they escape most of the Shun army and rush to Cheng'an County City in the fastest time.

In order to cover the grim action and push the battlefield to the county town, Gong Yi also launched a general offensive on the front line.

Shunjun had already received information from the county city, and knew that the Divine Guard would launch an attack in the near future, so he was ready.

But the result is still the same.

As long as the guards are serious, no city can defend against them.

Shundu City is the same!

There is actually not much difference between Shunjun being prepared and not being prepared.

The 160,000 to 70,000 Shunjun troops on the front line are like a mantis arm blocking a car in front of less than 120,000 Shenwei troops, and they may capsize at any time.

The soldiers of the Shun Army who were facing the attack of the Shenwei Army felt the most deeply.

The previous rebels were also very powerful, but not to this extent!

What happened to the armor on them?

Why does my spear bounce off their chests?

How can it be so painful when their knives and guns cut on my body?

oh! No pain, no pain soon.

I don't know how many soldiers have not figured out why today's guard army has changed so much and lost their lives.

There is no Yang Yuan here, but there is no shortage of siege equipment.

Even more complete than the ones in Yang Yuan's space.

"Tell them, don't be reluctant to give up ammunition, as long as you can break through the city wall with the fastest speed, throw out as much ammunition as you have!"

Now the generals of the Divine Guard Army are very wealthy. After the Divine Guard Army occupied a place, the first thing Yang Yuan did was to resume production, and the second thing was to build various infrastructures.

As for things like law and order and suppression of bandits, they were all done during the occupation, and even law and order cannot be restored, so is it still called occupation?

The soldiers of the Shun Army in the cities on the front line were dazzled by the various siege equipment of the Divine Guard Army, and they were beaten for a while.

If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, but if you beat it, it's too rare.

Shun generals in individual cities didn't even know how to defend against the attack of the Divine Guard.

They have never seen such a siege method before, and using their past experience to defend the city did not have a very good effect, it should be said that the effect was very poor.

It doesn't work at all.

what to do?

We can only use the most stupid way to deal with it, and the lives of soldiers will be filled.

Still difficult.

In just one day, the Divine Guard achieved very good results.

"Gong Shuai, the attack is going very smoothly, and the city can be breached as early as tomorrow."

"That's right, keep going, and strive to break through all the cities on the Shun Army's defense line the day after tomorrow."

"Don't worry, Gong Shuai, he will definitely do it!"

On the second day, the offensive of the guards was even more violent, and they used the same tactics as Yang Yuan.

Blast the walls with gunpowder.

The effect is very good.

Under the cover of a frontal attack, some guard soldiers dug tunnels in the weak parts of the city wall and filled them with explosives.

With a loud bang, one city after another changed its owner.

It's just that the Divine Guards don't have more energy to manage these cities, so they can only wait for the Xuanwu Army to come up to receive them.

The Qinglong Legion has already entered the battlefield, and the Xuanwu Legion is not slow.

…

Bad news spread back to Cheng'an County City one after another, making the atmosphere in the city gradually tense.

Although ordinary people don't know the battle reports from the front line, all kinds of gossip are flying around.

"Have you heard? The champion on the front line lost, with heavy casualties!"

"Impossible, didn't you hear that the attack of the rebels has been blocked?"

"Hey, what truth do those officials say? According to them, the world is peaceful!"

"Hey, Brother Dong, be careful! Be careful!"

"Let's not talk about state affairs, and be more prepared to deal with the chaos of war. If it is not good, we will have to move!"

Those who can move are people with some family background, and there is a way out, but even in the county town, ordinary people and even poor people are the majority.

They don't know what's happening on the front line, and even if they know, they have no way to deal with it. At most, they sell what they can sell at home and buy more food for storage.

You have to do it secretly, otherwise no one will care if you bought the food when it comes to crisis.

County city, county guard mansion.

Cheng'an County Sheriff is no longer the owner of this place. Although he is still here, he has moved away.

If Hao Daozong was not sick, he would definitely not agree to live here. The magistrate must respect him, and he can't let people move when he comes here.

Cheng'an County Sheriff voluntarily gave up the Sheriff's Mansion. First, because the next battle will be dominated by the military, the Sheriff's Mansion is big enough and has better secrecy;

Secondly, it is also because the county guard also admires Hao Daozong.

After Hao Daozong came out of the mountain, Shunguo officials had two attitudes towards this, one was resistance and the other was admiration.

The sheriff happened to admire Hao Daozong more.

And he is a smart person, knowing that at this time, there will be absolutely no problem in making friends with Hao Daozong.

Especially Hao Daozong after his illness.

Anyone who heard that he had given up the Sheriff's Mansion to him would be benevolent~lightnovelpub.net~ But at this time, the lobby of the Sheriff's Mansion was filled with a dignified atmosphere.

Wu Xiong sat with seven or eight generals of the Shun Army and the three chief officials of Cheng'an County, looking at each other silently.

The battle report from the front line has not yet been sent back, and one day is still too short.

But they already had a bad premonition in their hearts.

No matter how you look at it, it is not a simple temptation to make such a big move by the guards.

The final battle has begun.

And their commander-in-chief was still lying on the bed, and he didn't even dare to send the battle reports from the front line.

This battle is hard to fight!

"Tell me, what are you going to do next?"

Wu Xiong said with a blank face.

He was also sad, he thought that coming to Cheng'an County would turn the tide, but he didn't expect bad news to come one after another.

What he did the most after he came to Cheng'an County was to write letters of appeal to the imperial court.

Shame!

But even if his appeal letters were sent back one after another, Cheng'an County has not received any support yet.

Most of the ministers have already recognized the reality. Now the southern supplies and new recruits are gathered in the capital, and they want to ensure the safety of the capital.

Wu Xiong also guessed what the ministers in the capital thought.

If he is still in the capital, he will also support it.

But now that he is in Cheng'an County, he has to think more about Cheng'an County. The people here are also the people of Shun Country, and the soldiers here are also the cornerstone of Shun Country.

After Wu Xiong uttered his voice, the hall was finally no longer silent, but no one came out to answer Wu Xiong's question immediately, but there were quite a few whispered discussions.

Wu Xiong wasn't angry either, if someone stood up and answered him right away, he would probably have to mutter in his heart, this person is probably a flatterer!

Deliberation is good, the result of everyone's discussion is the best result!
