Chapter 24 Retreat
During the battle between Snow Wolf, "Zhao Yu" was dead, so Xingjian went straight to the arsenal in Da Yao Mountain to focus on making military equipment.
Wang Zijie is like a mad dog now. He feels like a bite when he sees anyone. With his unparalleled morale and the epoch-making firearm in his hand, no one can stop him in the north of the Red Dragon Empire. The remaining three cities in the north have already asked for help from the King Capital. If this continues, in less than a month, the entire north of the Red Dragon Empire will fall!
At the same time, Li Dongliu cooperated with Nutao to attack the southern border of Chilong. The empire had reached a state of internal and external troubles at this time.
"Second Young Master, what are your opinions about this situation?" asked the veteran general Pan Zhen.
"I think we should give up the four northern cities and transfer all the people and property. After all, the current form is to defend the enemy and cannot defend it. Instead of not being able to defend it, it is better to give up on your own initiative and minimize the losses!" Xingchen said.
"I understand everything you said! But as a general, there is no reason to be indifferent to the occupation of his country!" said the old general Pan Zhen firmly.
"If you think so, I can't do anything. One of them, I have no military power, and the other is, I have no power. I will be responsible for the people under my territory. Today I will issue a notice to evacuate all the people from the western frontier. Old general, if you still insist... take care of yourself!"
Pan Zhen nodded, and honestly speaking, Xingchen did not abandon his people and ran away, which was beyond his expectations.
Gently pulling out the long sword in his hand, the sword light was already turbid. The sword that had been with him for decades seemed to have come to an end.
...
The Snow Wolf Army is about to attack Luocheng, and the western frontier will be affected by the news. As soon as the news comes out, the people in the entire western frontier will be in full bloom.
Although life was already difficult, we could still survive no matter what. Now, even living has become a luxury!
"Why did His Majesty the Emperor start a war?"
"Where are those nobles? We have paid so much tax to protect us!"
"Dream, the nobles have already run away, who will protect us!"
"I don't want to die yet, what should I do? What should I do?"
"Who wants to die!"
"Haha, if Snow Wolf could accept us, he might be able to live a higher life than he is now!"
"Shh! Sigh down and don't be heard!"
Life is full of all kinds, and you can see it at a glance!
Whether it is the Red Dragon Empire or the Snow Wolf Dynasty, the people at the bottom are tired of war, especially the Red Dragon’s defeat, and the anger in everyone’s heart is almost at its limit.
The people who work hard forever will always be the nobles who will always get benefits.
"I heard that after Chen Du fell, Xuelang did not massacre. As long as he was willing to join Xuelang, he could survive and be distributed to the land!"
"How could such a good thing happen?"
"It's true. I heard that this time the snow wolf is not just for food. They want to rule the four northern cities!"
“For us, who ruled not the same?”
...
All the remarks were heard by the Grand Admiral.
This is what he wants.
For ordinary people in this era who have no independent thoughts, no knowledge, and only know how to survive, living is the most important thing.
Go to the country and the world, go to the country and be loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and go to the country and defend the country. Only living is the hard truth.
The king and the ministers are separated from each other, and the king and the people are separated from each other. This country cannot go far.
In a country, population is the foundation. Wang Zijie's strategy of using the cauldron to remove firewood is to fundamentally shake the Red Dragon Empire.
The emperor of the Red Dragon Empire was too hasty, and the Grand Supervisor's follow-up efforts, which led to the current situation of Red Dragon!
"It's time to add a fire at the end!" The Grand Supervisor thought slightly: "The people from the Fando Continent are almost about to reach the coastline of the Red Dragon. Let them start the war directly, and see if the Red Dragon Emperor can still stabilize it?"
Finally, the Grand Admiral found a map, which was a "treasure map" drawn by the Grand Admiral that could "save" the Red Dragon Empire.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
A creepy laughter sounded.
In the afternoon, Xingchen was about to set out with his 20,000 people and a thousand soldiers, first exposed the Mingcheng, and then headed west to return to the imperial capital.
The old general Panzhen decided to stick to the northern border and never retreat! He took his men to Luocheng, hoping to catch the tall walls of Luocheng to block the snow wolf army's advance.
Should I make trouble?
The Grand Supervisor looked at the 1,000 Zhao family soldiers under his command, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came up with a destructive move that would completely collapse the Red Dragon Army.
"General, my new body has been replaced, please help me!"
"Speak, the latest steel body, super excited."
"You're like this...
...
Along the way, Pan Zhen brought the remaining 20,000 remaining soldiers to Luocheng. The city lord Guo Qi still welcomed him warmly and did not turn against him because of the last incident.
To settle the soldiers, Guo Qi put a banquet to welcome Pan Zhen.
"The veteran general doesn't have to care. Winning and losing is a common thing for military strategists. Isn't it enough to win back in the future?"
"Thank you, City Lord Guo. The Snow Wolf Army is coming soon. Please prepare early!" Pan Zhen said.
"Don't worry, the veteran general. I heard that the reason why the Snow Wolf Army was invincible was because of a weapon called a firearm. I had a rough understanding of this weapon. Although it was powerful, it was very accurate. Thousands of fire were required to exert all the power. Therefore, I ordered people to create a heavy iron shield overnight, which was two inches thick. It stood at the top of the city with an arrow hole on it, and it could fire arrows from it. In this way, I would not be afraid of his firearm at all!" City Lord Guo Qi said proudly.
The old general nodded secretly. He also thought of this method when he was guarding Chendu. However, there was not so much steel, and the second was too late, so this method was not used.
In this way, the most powerful firearm of the Snow Wolf Army can be turned into invisible. The Snow Wolf Army has fought for a total of only about 80,000 people. If it is forcibly attacked the city, it will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
Thinking of this, the old general Pan Zhen had to feel a little admiration for City Lord Guo Qi. Although this person is insatiable, he seems to be a general person to come up with such a method at a critical moment.
Moreover, he is rich and powerful, so much steel is definitely not a small number.
