In this battle, the reason why she chose Xia Xing as the commander of the main force of the Ghost Mother Kingdom was because she was indeed more mature than Qiu Shuang and more calmer than Chunyun as Gui Mother said. But today she was also anxious.
Xiao Shizhu understood her mood at this time; this time, the navy of the Ghost Mother Kingdom was almost in full swing, and the local coastline could only be handed over to Quanxian and his tribe members to defend. Various materials were also continuously from
The local Shuoyue Island is transported to this place, and the two islands are not close, so the supply line has been lengthened a lot. In addition to the Xiao family army, the ghost mother also allocated 150,000 troops to Xia Xing, and the troops in the country are now left.
Few.
The longer the battle is, the more unfavorable it will be for the Ghost Mother Kingdom; and if the battle cannot be decided quickly on the Black Dragon Island, if something happens in the country, such as being taken advantage of by other enemy countries, the Ghost Mother Army will
Being caught in the disadvantage of being difficult to take into account.
But the more this happens, the more we need to fight steadily. Once we attack rashly in order to achieve quick battles and decisiveness, we will easily be plotted by the enemy.
Faced with Xia Xing's questioning, Xiao Shizhu just smiled and asked her to take her seat first, and then asked herself: "Have the cities outside the gates in the eastern, southern and northern Ghost Kingdom taken over?"
"According to your wishes, you have taken over. My Lord is constantly transferring capable ministers to the country to govern these places. Soldiers have also been arranged to garrison in each dangerous place; at the same time, the actions of encircling and capturing the Mo people in various places are also
Under the leadership of the constable I arranged, it was in silence." After Xia Xing took his seat, he calmed down and said to Xiao Shizhu: "All passes are also being rebuilt according to your requirements." However, his tone was still slim.
The meaning of complaint.
"What about what I want?" Xiao Shizhu rubbed his hands and asked again.
"It's all for you." Xia Xing replied, stopping talking. The other Qianhu really looked confused when he heard it. I don't know what they were talking about? I don't know that Xiao Shizhu asked Xia Xing to give it to me.
What did the Xiao family army transport come?
Xiao Shizhu whispered the word "good" and asked Xia Xing again: "How many soldiers are there by your side now?"
"Fifty thousand." Xia Xing looked at him blankly and replied; after she calmed down completely, she felt that Xiao Shizhu would not do anything passively and lazy to fight, and the slow attack must have a reason, so she put it aside
He looked angry and asked again: "What are the instructions of the Xiao family army?"
"By by Linglong City and take down Huju Pass, which leads to the western region of the Ghost Kingdom Guanzhong." Xiao Shizhu smiled faintly at her, turned to look at Xuanshui and said, "Xuanshui, aren't you unable to sit still?
You will be the pioneer in action tonight.”
In the evening, the Ghost King stood alone in the city gate building on the palace gate, raised his eyes and looked out in the distance south.
More than ten days ago, Xiao Shizhu married the ghost mother and spread throughout Xuanyanzhou, and the Ghost King also heard about it. At that time, he was still thinking that the Ghost Kingdom would have time to rebuild; he felt that
While being lucky, he cursed Xiao Shizhu in his heart as a lustful idiot. If he took down the Ghost Kingdom first and then held a wedding, he would have no chance to breathe.
But as Xiao Shizhu expected, the Ghost King, who disdained him, never even dreamed that he would have a stubborn war on the second day of his wedding, regardless of the happy days. It was for ominousness that he dared to send troops to fight against the Ghost King.
The Ghost King didn't know that if it weren't for Xiao Shizhu's injury last time, his country would have been destroyed. Later, Xiao Shizhu got married with the Ghost Mother, only seven parts were sincere, and the remaining three parts were to confuse the Ghost Mother. News of letting the Ghost Mother get out of the house
The Ghost King's ears made him immersed in the illusion that Xiao Shizhu did not dare to use his swords and weapons on the day of great joy.
When Xiao Shizhu and Xiao's army descended to the Ghost Kingdom again, the Ghost King suddenly realized that his opponent was a ghost who never followed the rules when marching and fighting.
This kind of opponent is terrible because you can never keep up with his thinking and can't guess what he will do next. For the first time in his life, a trace of fear arose in his heart.
Especially after the grandma's death, the Xiao family army came to Linglong City again, and this fear became increasingly fierce. He wanted to use fraudulent defeat to lure the enemy into the depths, so that the Xiao family army, who liked to rely on firearms, approached the July Lake, and caused the opponent's firearms to explode.
, but he always ended in failure. This made the Ghost King feel a lot of frustration in his heart, intertwined with fear, making him feel very restless.
The setting sun was as blood as the ghost king sighed lightly.
As soon as the sigh fell to the ground, his daughter Gui Qianer took a team of maids to the city tower and stood beside him. The maids said they were maids, but they looked more like female soldiers. They were all wearing silver armor.
With two swords on his waist, this is Gui Qian'er's princess army, composed of her maids.
Gui Qian'er is also wearing a set of silver light armor today, wearing a silver helmet and pressing her temples, her brilliant scales and armor moves, and she has sun and moon swords hanging on her waist. She stood on the city tower, stood on the railing, letting her beauties
The wind blew past her face, making the cloak on her shoulder roar, and her eyes were filled with heroic looks.
"Father, according to the child, Xiao Shizhu is also a mediocre person. The ghost slave is a ghost slave. How can he become a general?" Gui Qian'er looked disdainful and looked at the bright red clouds in the sky south.
Humph, "It took two or three days to advance two miles. Why should my father be worried every day with such a mediocre talent? It won't take long before he and his Xiao family army will not be able to adapt to the high temperature baking and be exhausted.
"There is another fight." The tone of speaking was relaxed, just to comfort the Ghost King. But she, who was young and uninformed, expressed her intention of looking down on Xiao Shizhu in her words, was sincere.
"Haha, Qian'er, I think he is not a mediocre person." After hearing this, the Ghost King turned his head to look at the fearless look of the newborn calf between her eyebrows, and his mood was a little better.
Eye smiled and said, "As soon as he came here, he had discovered the secret purpose of the divine wood. He followed our example of using the divine wood to cool down the place where he was. This alone shows that his observation is meticulous and not simple. Therefore, it is just defense and
If there is a confrontation, he and his soldiers will not be exhausted by the high temperature. Moreover, he has been advancing slowly these days. It should be because he saw that I have been luring him to approach the lake, so he did not dare to advance rashly."
.
"Teel the enemy? Father, do you want to use the high temperature in the lake to solve the firearm that the Xiao family army is proud of?" Gui Qian'er heard this, then turned her head and looked at the Ghost King, blinking and asked.
Although this girl is young, she is not stupid. The Ghost King just gave a little tip and guessed her father's intention; it can be seen that the Ghost King's teachings to her on weekdays are not just piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or female red embroidery.
"Yes." The Ghost King pointed his head and said, "He dared not make a rash move. He must have seen through my intentions."
"Then the father doesn't have to worry. Xiao Shizhu's slow progress means that he has not come up with a way to deal with you. And our city has enough food, and it will not be a problem to survive for three or five years, but Xiao Shizhu is in trouble.
Once the supply is not enough, he will retreat. Then we will take advantage of the victory and recover the lost territory." Gui Qian'er chuckled and pouted, and the disdain on her face became even heavier.
The Ghost King also smiled, but this smile was so bitter. Over the past few days, he had been connected to the war report and it was the Ghost King Army who was driven away by the Ghost Mother Army led by Xia Xing, and many troops were captured.
Many people turned against each other. Moreover, the southern and northern Heilong Island and the eastern region were no longer under his rule at this time. It was unlikely to rely on the royal ministers from all over the country to lead their troops to serve the king.
In addition, earlier, he received a reward from a spy, saying that after seeing Xia Xing with about 50,000 troops and horses successfully joining the Xiao family army, he hurriedly left, bypassed Linglong City, and headed directly to the west.
He guessed that Xiao Shizhu wanted to take down all four regions of the Ghost Kingdom, east, west, south, north and north, and trap him to death in the capital.
Once this plan came true and after the implementation was successful, he could only fight with the last 40,000 defenders in the capital; all of this made him feel anxious for an afternoon.
But at this moment he didn't know that trapping him in the royal city was only part of Xiao Shizhu's plan, and the more anxious one was still behind.
Gradually, the sky became completely dark, and in Linglong City and in the Ghost King Palace, there were lights rising one after another.
"Report!" Suddenly a ghost slave climbed the city tower and came towards him, saying, "The Xiao family army suddenly advanced two miles forward. Our front-line positions were defeated, and the soldiers were retreating to Linglong City, preparing to go with
The enemy starts street fighting.”
"I understand." The Ghost King gritted his teeth, answered casually, and said to the ghost slave: "Tell the defenders that it is already night now and you cannot take the initiative to attack." His eyes were always looking ahead.
After finishing his speech, he said silently in his heart: "Xiao Shizhu suddenly pushed forward. What is he going to do?" During the confrontation for several days, Xiao Shizhu was afraid that the firearm would protect himself due to the high temperature, and the attack was very slow.
He basically did not take the initiative to attack, but today he advanced two miles in one breath, which made the Ghost King very puzzled.
Intuition told him that Xiao Shizhu was going to take action. But he racked his brains and couldn't guess the opponent, let alone what the other party was going to do. He had to stand on the city tower and work anxiously.
Just when he couldn't figure it out, many fireballs suddenly soared into the sky in the darkness south of Linglong City, accompanied by the whistling sound, shot towards Linglong City.
After a blink of an eye, it exploded in Linglong City. Although the houses in the city did not catch fire, they were also broken into pieces. Apart from far away, the Ghost King also felt the vibration caused by the explosion, which made his heart tremble.
He cursed angrily: "What kind of artillery is this? It can hit so far?"
When the voice sounded in his heart, more than a dozen shells shot out from the Xiao family army camp with a "swoosh" sound, quickly spinning through the night sky, and then landed towards the Ghost Palace behind him.
"Fifty fortress-type Fran machine cannons are enough for him to drink a pot of Ghost King." Xiao Shizhu stood on the artillery position, looked at Linglong City that was stirring in front of him, and laughed.
Around him, there were fifty chariots made of Fusang sacred trees, divided into two rows in front and back, and arranged in one row. The cars were all rectangular, more than three meters long, two meters wide and two meters high, which looked very much like the world.
There are eight tall wheels on the container, four on the left and right, and one person's waist is thick on the axle alone; each car is pulled by two powerful green beast souls. The four walls on the car are almost sealed, but there is only one behind it.
There is a round hole on the wooden board directly in front of it, and behind it is a black muzzle; it is better to say that it is a chariot, it is better to say that this is a wooden tank.
There was a fortress-type Franco cannon built by Lai Yueqi working overtime. The length of the body tube is more than two meters long and the weight is thousands of kilograms. The effective range can reach twenty miles, which is about ten kilometers in the world.
Earth, this is the killer weapon that Xia Xing escorted him earlier. In addition, he was equipped with a chariot made of Fusang divine wood, so he was no longer afraid of self-destruction due to the high temperature.
Relying on the geographical advantages of the Ghost King, Xiao Shizhu's idea, was once again completely cracked.
According to Xiao Shizhu's request, the artillery soldiers of the Xiao family plugged their ears with cotton, drilled into the car through the door behind the car, controlled the cannons in the car to aim at the target, and fired in a non-scattered manner.
What's even worse is that Xiao Shizhu ordered the soldiers to fill solid bullets into the artillery every round of artillery attacks; there is no gunpowder inside this shell, and it is all cast of iron or lead, although it is not lethal to soldiers and horses.
It is large, but has a very long range, and can penetrate the fortifications of the city walls and fortifications made of stone, wood, copper and iron. The houses in Linglong City were instantly blown into pieces by these solid bombs.
