Under the leadership of Ye Zheng, eight thousand elite bandits, after another two days of rapid march, were getting closer and closer to Qingzhou, the county capital.
In the evening of that day, under Ye Zheng's order, the bandit army chose a wilderness on the spot and set up camp there to rest.
At this time, four days have passed since they left Jinzhou City. If nothing happens, they can enter Qingzhou before sunset tomorrow at most, and they can arrive at Qingzhou City at noon the day after tomorrow at most.
Within a few days of this march, the bandit army passed through two counties one after another. Without exception, the bandits led by Ye Zheng broke into the city, replenished some supplies along the way, and robbed two county chief seals. , our Alliance Leader Ye was given two additional permissions to open the third-level arsenal for no reason.
On the night when he rested in the wilderness, Ye Zheng specially ordered the mountain bandit leaders to strengthen the security of the camp, fearing that they would be attacked by the imperial officers and soldiers. However, the bandit army stationed here for a whole night, but nothing happened. Ye Zheng couldn't help but be amazed when he received any slightest disturbance.
Early the next morning, the bandit army broke out of camp again and headed straight for Qingzhou.
Finally, in the afternoon of the next day, they entered Qingzhou. At this time, Ye Zheng immediately sent an order, ordering everyone to take strict precautions and be vigilant.
However, this time their precautionary work seemed to have been wasted again, because the bandit army basically did not encounter any interceptions or ambushes on the way to Qingzhou City, and even the scouts sent by the officers and soldiers did not touch the scouts. to one.
As a result, the situation became very strange, but Ye Zheng still did not relax his vigilance and still asked everyone to continue to strengthen their precautions.
At the same time, Ye Zheng secretly decided in his heart that as soon as he arrived five miles away from Qingzhou City, he would immediately order the bandit army to stop advancing and directly send out the M270 self-propelled rocket launcher to attack the Qingzhou City defenses from the air and bomb them for a while. .
Anyway, the M270 self-propelled multiple rocket launcher still has twenty-four rounds left, and can be fired twice across the board. As long as it bombs the main tower of Qingzhou City twice in a row, it is estimated that the city defense of the main tower will be , even if it is not turned into ruins, it is probably completely destroyed.
When the time comes, I will send out two armored vehicles and two artillery pieces to take the lead, shooting all the way and crushing them. At that time, no matter what the regular army or the Forbidden Army you are, they will still be reduced to a bloody mass under the overwhelming machine gun fire of their bandit army. sieve.
You know, Ye Zheng spent a lot of money on this trip to attack Qingzhou. He had eight thousand light machine guns, one hundred heavy machine guns, one hundred rocket launchers and other messy arms and equipment. Such a luxurious lineup was quite terrifying. .
On the night they entered Qingzhou, due to time issues, they could not arrive outside Qingzhou City before dark.
Therefore, Ye Zheng once again ordered all the bandits to camp and rest for the night on the way. At the same time, he asked everyone to eat well and sleep well, so that they must have enough energy to prepare for tomorrow's siege.
After hearing the leader's order, a group of fierce bandits excitedly agreed.
That night, the gangster camp was still safe and sound. Until dawn, the brothers who were patrolling outside the camp did not notice any movement or abnormality. This time, Ye Zheng was really confused.
What is the situation? Why did I come to attack Qingzhou with such great fanfare, but Qingzhou still didn't react at all? It's strange, it's really strange.
Resisting his doubts, early the next morning, he once again ordered the army of ruthless bandits to open the road and go straight to Qingzhou City to kill. Finally, after an hour and a half, Ye Zheng led the eight thousand elite ruthless bandits and successfully They arrived five miles away from Qingzhou City.
Through the scope, Ye Zheng observed the huge city five miles away. Suddenly, he couldn't help but secretly exclaimed: "The county is worthy of being the county capital. The scale of the city is not only several times larger than that of Jinzhou City" , even the city wall is several feet higher than the main city wall of Jinzhou City."
In the scope, he saw that the wall height of Qingzhou City was at least seven feet high, while that of Jinzhou City was only five feet high. Looking from a distance, the battlements and towers were filled with fully armed officers and soldiers. Those officers and soldiers All of them were wearing solid armor and holding weapons made of fine steel. Their expressions were extremely tough. In addition, Ye Zheng also saw that there were many large trebuchets and ballistae placed on the city wall. , and some other city defense equipment that he couldn't name. Anyway, the defensive capabilities of Qingzhou City, the county capital, are definitely several levels higher than that of Jinzhou City.
With such a high city wall and such a strong defense, if he did not have these modern firearms and equipment, he would probably have no hope of conquering this huge city with high walls and thick walls, even if he were given 100,000 elite bandits.
Now, he finally understood why it was mentioned many times in history books that there were only tens of thousands of defenders in the city, but it could withstand hundreds of thousands of siege troops for several months. From this point of view, the cold weapons at that time were In the era, it was indeed very possible to have a city with high walls and thick walls, relying on its super defensive advantages.
Looking at Qingzhou City in front of him, a flash of light flashed in Ye Zheng's eyes, and he ordered everyone to stop advancing on the spot, prepare for a battle charge, and wait for the order to attack at any time.
After hearing the order, the eight thousand elite bandits stopped one after another. Each of them prepared all the weapons and equipment in their hands. Just waiting for Ye Zheng's order, they went straight to Qingzhou City five miles away to kill. go.
At this time, Ye Zheng saw that the time was almost up, and immediately prepared to contact the robots operating self-propelled rocket launchers in his mind, ordering them to prepare to open fire and bomb.
Phew,……
At this moment, a neighing sound suddenly came from the sky. Ye Zheng's heart was moved. He looked up and saw a huge goshawk circling and flying in the sky above his head.
However, at this moment, Liu Chengfeng, who was standing next to him, suddenly pointed in the direction of Qingzhou City Gate and said in a deep voice: "Leader, look, someone has left the city and is flying towards us now. Look, His outfit looks like a red-clad guard from Prince Liang's palace."
Hearing this, Ye Zheng frowned, and immediately looked through the scope. Sure enough, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a red brocade robe, speeding towards them. Look at that man. The whole body exudes a red body-protecting aura, especially the seven-point sword-shaped light between the eyebrows, indicating that the person coming is a martial arts master with level seven strength.
A moment later, the red-clad guard arrived in front of the bandit army's camp and stopped ten feet away from Ye Zheng.
I saw the guard in red shouting expressionlessly: "Where is Ye Zheng?"
Ye Zheng frowned. He didn't understand the purpose of this red-clothed guard suddenly coming to the battle. He stared at him sharply and said coldly: "I am Ye Zheng, what's the matter?"
The guard in red clothes looked at him with a cold look and said: "His Royal Highness, you have been invited to the city to see me."
Hearing this, Ye Zheng's face darkened and he said coldly: "Is that idiot Prince Liang of yours mentally retarded? I have led an army to the city and you want me to go into the city to meet him. What a fucking idiot. Ah, you go back and tell Prince Liang that if you want to meet, you can wait until I get to Prince Liang’s Mansion and then have a good meeting with your idiot Prince to see what kind of ambition he has had to dare to touch my woman. .”
The red-clothed guard never expected that the bandit leader Ye Zheng looked gentle and handsome, but was so rude when he spoke. Suddenly, a trace of anger flashed on his face, but when he saw Liu Chengfeng, Tang Jiuzhui and others Standing next to him, I had no choice but to suppress the anger in my heart and said with a sinister smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that you will definitely come to the city to see him."
Ye Zheng's face turned cold and he looked at him coldly and said: "Oh, really, I'm afraid he will be disappointed this time..."
Before he finished speaking, the guard in red clothes suddenly turned around with a sinister smile on his face and pointed in the direction of Qingzhou City Gate.
Ye Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose. At that moment, he picked up the scope and looked in the direction of the city gate. As soon as he took a look, his face suddenly changed drastically, as if his chest had been hit by a heavy hammer, and he almost stopped standing. They can't even stand still.
