Chapter 205 Soldiers return to the team
Facing the heavily defended city of Korlo, the Sith Corps, which served as the vanguard, failed several powerful attacks. Time passed by minute by minute, and the commander Sith was anxious.
If the city of Kolo cannot be captured as soon as possible, as Lin Chuan's direct corps, it will not only be related to the honor of the corps, but also to Lin Chuan's prestige in the corps.
Although Lin Chuan is now the commander of the First Legion, his corps came from various units, and the deputy commander and chief of staff were all people directly airborne by the commander.
Lin Chuan was promoted from the commander of the corps to the commander of the corps. Although he had outstanding military achievements before, he was young after all. Although the commanders of the corps under his command expressed support on the surface, everyone knew what was going on in fact.
In the fierce Nanchuan army, they always speak with their strength. Now Lin Chuan is the commander of the legion. The Sith Corps is the direct line of Lin Chuan. Among several corps, although the Sith Corps now has five flag regiments, due to the existence of a large number of new recruits, their combat power is not very strong.
In the pre-war meeting, Lin Chuan disagreed with all his opinions and allowed the Sith Corps, which had a large number of new recruits, to serve as the vanguard force in order to establish his authority.
The Sith did not disappoint Lin Chuan's expectations. He was unstoppable along the way and was invincible in the battle. However, now he was blocked in the city of Korok, which is something that the Sith didn't want to see. If he couldn't conquer, even if Lin Chuan wanted them to continue as the vanguard force, the other corps commanders would have complaints, which would be unfavorable for the legion.
Whether the city of Kolo can be captured now is not only related to the honor of the First Corps, but also to Lin Chuan's prestige in the new position of commander of the Legion. The Sith dare not neglect it.
"Has the trencher been made?" Sith asked the commander of the baggage battalion.
The commander of the baggage battalion replied with a bitter face: "General, you have to wait until noon tomorrow to complete the five trench machines. This is the fastest speed for the craftsmen."
Sith frowned and shook his head and said, "Can't wait, the main force of the Legion will arrive tomorrow at noon."
"General, let our Fourth Flag Regiment attack again at night!" Mu Xue, the commander of the Fourth Flag Regiment, stood up and said.
The Fourth Flag Regiment suffered a great loss during the daytime siege. The Flag Regiment Commander Mu Xue personally attacked against the thunderstone and rolled the wood, and now the blood on his armor was still dry.
Sith pondered for a moment, punched the table and said, "That's all. After dark, the third flag regiment attacked the north gate and the fourth flag regiment attacked the south gate. Be sure to take down Kolo City before dawn tomorrow!"
"No!" The commanders of each flag regiment responded loudly and went out one after another to prepare for the battle after nightfall.
The Nanchuan Army has always been good at field battles, and night battles have always been not good at siege combat. Every time they spend their lives, Lin Chuan has always summarized his experience in siege combat.
However, the Nanchuan Army was established for too short, and various siege equipment was incomplete, and many technologies were firmly controlled by the Dynasty Army. Even the manufacturing of trenchers still captured the craftsmen of the Dynasty Army before exploring the manufacturing.
Now the Sith can only make a desperate bet, hoping to capture Korok City with the night battle that the Nanchuan Army is good at.
The night slowly enveloped, and the sky and the earth became dark. Torches were lit on the top of the city of Korou, illuminating the entire city. The Sith looked at the strong city of Korou, feeling complicated.
Is Kolo really the nemesis of the First Corps? The Sith shook his head and remained silent.
"General, a civilian asked for a visit." The guards hurried over and reported to the Sith.
The Sith waved his hand and said, "Give him some copper coins to send him away. If you want to seek justice, you will find the government officials."
The guard continued, "General, I said the same thing, but he said he had a way to break through the city of Korlo-"
"Oh?" The guard's words aroused the interest of the Sith. Perhaps the local civilians really knew the weakness of Korlo: "Bring him up, I ask myself."
The guards hurried away, and soon a middle-aged man in a robe was taken to the Sith.
Although the middle-aged man had a shabby robe, he walked with great power and his swinging arms were very powerful. He did not look like a civilian at all, but like a soldier. The guards around the Sith were very alert and hurriedly blocked the man a few steps away and prevented him from approaching the Sith.
"I heard you have a way to defeat Kolo?" Sith asked loudly at the man in the robe.
"General Sith?" the middle-aged man raised his head and did not answer Sith's words, but asked tentatively.
"Catch him!" Sith's face suddenly darkened when he heard the middle-aged man's answer, and he gave orders to the guards around him coldly.
The middle-aged man had aroused the Sith's suspicion from the beginning when he walked. Now, after hearing his answer, Sith has determined that the man has a problem.
When ordinary civilians see military officials, they call them the chief, but the man did not do this, but instead called the Sith's name.
If it weren't for the enemy's assassin, he wouldn't have known such details.
With the command of the Sith, the guards around him, who were like wolves and tigers rushed towards the middle-aged man. Several guards could not hold him back, which made Sith's thoughts even more certain.
After more than a dozen guards held down the middle-aged man, Sith asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, who are you! What is the purpose of coming here?!"
The middle-aged man in the robe was pressed to the ground by more than a dozen guards, and was in a mess, but he still couldn't hide his whole body.
"General Sith, I am not an enemy--" the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted.
The Sith said coldly: "Tell me your true identity! Otherwise I will behead you as a spy!"
"General, I am the scout of the second flag regiment of the First Corps, a thousand-man team, Liu Erhu." The middle-aged man replied loudly: "I have my military card in my arms!"
When the Second Flag Regiment heard the Sith's pupils shrank slightly. With a wave of his hand, the guards quickly found an iron military card from Liu Erhu's arms.
The other side of the iron plate "Scout Team of the Second Flag Regiment of the First Corps of the Nanchuan Army" is: "Iron Eagle Officer Liu Erhu".
This is a standard Nanchuan Army identity proof, but now the Sith cannot believe it, because the Second Flag Regiment has been destroyed in Korok City, and he cannot guarantee whether Liu Erhu has surrendered to the enemy.
Seeing that the Sith was not moved at all, Liu Erhu hurriedly added: "General, I turned out to be from the First Flag Regiment, and the leader of the Xiao Zhanqi knew me."
Sith turned to the guards and ordered: "Go and call Commander Xiao Zhanqi."
Soon, Xiao Zhan, the commander of the First Flag Regiment, walked quickly, and handed the Sith General's card to Xiao Zhan and said, "Xiao Zhan, do you know this Liu Erhu?"
Xiao Zhan looked at the military sign and replied: "I know him. He used to be the commander of a thousand-man in the first flag battalion of our flag regiment, and later transferred to the second flag regiment..."
"Sir Xiao, I am Liu Erhu." Liu Erhu hurriedly shouted when he saw Xiao Zhan coming.
Xiao Zhan took a step forward and when he saw Liu Erhu, he excitedly hugged Liu Erhu's shoulder: "Erhu, you are really Erhu, you are still alive!"
Seeing Liu Erhu being pressed by the guards, Xiao Zhan hurriedly stood up and said to the Sith: "General, it's really Liu Erhu, let him go."
Sith raised his head and said, "I can't confirm whether he has surrendered to the enemy yet... So, Xiao Zhan, I can't let him go now."
Xiao Zhan suddenly became anxious: "General, I, Xiao Zhan, have a guarantee of the head. I promoted the Erhu with one hand, and he will never surrender to the enemy!"
"General, I, Liu Erhu, are born in the First Corps, and die as a ghost in the First Corps. You say I surrender to the enemy. You are insulting me, Liu Erhu, kill me!" Liu Erhu raised his head and said loudly.
Sith was in a dilemma and finally decided to let Liu Erhu go: "Okay, I can let you go temporarily, but you must explain what happened during this period, otherwise, you know the consequences of surrendering to the enemy."
Soon, Liu Erhu was taken to the Corps Command, and several flag commanders rushed over, all wanting to know what happened to the Second Flag Regiment.
