Not only are the Sky-defying Monkeys full of aggression, but even the group of cosmic hunters in the meteorite belt are as if they are facing a formidable enemy, each of them has a fierce look in their eyes, and looks like they could hurt someone at any time.
When Zhao Yuan was injured, the group of hunters in the meteorite belt were the ones who most blamed themselves, because they were responsible for Zhao Yuan's safety work, and if they were to be held accountable, they had the greatest responsibility.
There is no need for people in the meteorite belt to question Zhao Yuan's loyalty. It is for this reason that the hunters in the meteorite belt all feel guilty.
In addition to the people in the meteorite belt forming a huge defensive circle, some cultivators on the periphery were also secretly vigilant.
Anyone with a little bit of military knowledge knows that Zhao Yuan at this time is no small matter.
The impact of Zhao Yuan's personal combat effectiveness on the entire battle situation is almost negligible. After all, when the two armies confront each other, there will often be battles involving hundreds of thousands of troops. His personal combat effectiveness has become insignificant. However, Zhao Yuan is not a charging soldier at this time.
He is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and he is the idol of the soldiers and civilians of the Great Qin Empire. Once something goes wrong with Zhao Yuan, not to mention the national fate of the Great Qin Empire, at least the hundreds of thousands of refugee troops will immediately become a piece of loose sand, torn apart, and become a mess.
Lamb to the slaughter.
The layers of defense formed a huge U-shape, completely surrounding a group of Crusaders holding white flags.
Seeing the murderous refugee army, the surrendered Crusaders were all frightened, secretly glad that they did not have to fight each other.
The Crusaders naturally don't know that the people they are coming into contact with now are not real refugees. In addition to a group of hunters in the meteorite belt, there are also some masters in the world of martial arts and cultivators in the world of cultivation. The spiritual temperament of these people is naturally not
It is comparable to a ragtag group of refugees.
surrender!
Although Zhao Yuan had seen the opponent's white flag a long time ago, when the opponent said the word "surrender", Zhao Yuan still felt a little incredible.
Marching all the way from Bafang City, Zhao Yuan made countless siege plans. He also thought of countless possibilities, and even prepared for the worst. However, he never thought that he would not use one soldier at a time.
You can capture such a powerful pass as Zhenshuiguan.
In fact, not only Zhao Yuan felt incredible, but also some officers and cultivators of the refugee army looked dull.
This victory seems to come too easily, and it is a bit unreal.
In order to be sure and avoid a trap, Zhao Yuan arranged for thousands of elites and hundreds of martial arts figures and cultivators to enter Zhenshuiguan in advance. After ensuring complete control of the city wall, hundreds of thousands of refugee troops entered Zhenshuiguan...
…
After entering Zhenshuiguan, Zhao Yuan, led by a group of generals who surrendered, came to the place where Roma was buried, and saw the secret room that had been burned to the ground and a pile of corpses that looked like meat paste.
Zhao Yuan did not doubt Rom's identity because he could feel it.
Not only Zhao Yuan was able to identify Rom's body, but even the Heaven-defying Monkey was able to identify Rom's body.
Looking at the pile of rotten meat on the ground, Zhao Yuan had mixed feelings.
In fact, Zhao Yuan did not know Roma well before the Zhenshuiguan Crusaders surrendered. It was only now that Zhao Yuan knew Roma's status in the Heavenly Crusaders.
Zhenshuiguan was like a festival, decorated with colorful ribbons. The residents of the Qin Empire in Zhenshuiguan held flowers and wine to reward the refugee army. The refugee army received unprecedented respect.
Both the refugees in Bafang City and the people in Zhenshuiguan were full of fanatical worship of Zhao Yuan.
Zhao Yuan allowed Bai Qi to be hanged at Zhenshuiguan without even using a single soldier. This has become a legend.
Not only some ordinary people admired Zhao Yuan, but also some cultivators also looked at Zhao Yuan in a different light.
People are smiling.
In order to avoid chaos caused by the hundreds of thousands of refugees, Zhao Yuan divided the refugee army into groups. Those with relatives went to relatives, those with friends went to friends, and those without relatives and friends temporarily arranged to camp in open spaces.
Fortunately, Zhenshuiguan is one of the national granaries of the Great Qin Empire. There is no need to worry about the food problem for the time being. Even if there is insufficient food, it can be easily solved. After all, Zhenshuiguan is located in a strategic location with rivers extending in all directions.
After the diversion of hundreds of thousands of refugees, there are still over 200,000 people left. Most of them are young and middle-aged people who have voluntarily stayed to serve the country. Some are old, weak, sick and disabled. These people are the most difficult to arrange.
, if not handled well, it will become a hidden danger.
After temporarily settling a group of soldiers, Zhao Yuan placed a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people in some positions, cooking and washing clothes for the soldiers, making weapons, mending clothes, etc., trying to keep people idle as much as possible.
At the same time, Zhao Yuan mobilized the large families in Zhenshuiguan to let them share some responsibilities.
With effective publicity and some promises from Zhao Yuan, some wealthy families also accepted a large number of the elderly, weak, sick and disabled.
Zhao Yuan knew very well that he did not need this army of hundreds of thousands of refugees at all, and he could not resettle these hundreds of thousands of people with his own strength. He tried his best to divert the refugees so that some gentry and wealthy people could
It is really impossible to solve the problem by providing money and effort, so we can only arrange to work in the barracks.
There used to be high-intensity offensive and defensive battles in Zhenshuiguan, and the damage was serious. Now, hundreds of businesses are waiting for prosperity. It only takes a little time to absorb a small population. In fact, after the refugee army entered Zhenshuiguan, many refugees took advantage of the waterways that extend in all directions.
He left Zhenshuiguan and went to seek refuge with relatives and friends.
It is worth mentioning that because the Crusaders' ships are too large to penetrate deep into some river tributaries from the sea, it is currently unable to fully control all rivers.
For Zhao Yuan, the refugees in Bafang City are his heartache.
No one knows the destructive power of refugees better than Zhao Yuan. When he was in Wanjiadongyuan, Zhao Yuan saw how powerful refugees can be. Under hunger, even the kindest people will become ruthless and unafraid of death.
The evil wolf.
At the beginning, Zhao Yuan decided to attack Zhenshuiguan at all costs because he saw that this place was a granary. At least, the refugees in Bafang City would not be hungry.
For refugees, as long as they have enough food to eat, no problem is a problem.
Thirty thousand surrendered Crusaders were disarmed and imprisoned. In addition to being shackled, they were treated very well.
While the refugees were being diverted, the army at Zhenshuiguan was also in full swing and was being organized.
When we were in Bafang City, there were many soldiers from the Great Qin Empire. In Zishui Pass, a large number of soldiers from the Great Qin Empire were imprisoned. Among them, there were many senior generals. These people were familiar with building an army, plus 30,000 crosses.
The army lowered its inventory of weapons and military supplies, and soon an army of 100,000 people took shape.
Of course, these 100,000 people are not real soldiers in a strict sense. It can only be said that this army is an army composed of young and middle-aged people. It is not like the refugee army mixed with a large number of soldiers.
of the old, weak, sick and disabled.
There is no doubt that this is a deformed army without military training.
In addition, the total number of horses in Zhenshuiguan is less than 200, which means that there is no possibility of forming a cavalry in Zhenshuiguan.
Using infantry to deal with cavalry is simply unthinkable.
Zhao Yuan has read a lot of earth's military history, and he has a comprehensive understanding of it from the era of cold weapons to the era of hot weapons. Among them, especially Genghis Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, he deeply admires him.
There is no doubt that the current combat style of the Crusaders is that of Genghis Khan during the Yuan Dynasty.
The Crusaders' cavalry was extremely mobile. Even a few thousand cavalry could besiege a city with a population of hundreds of thousands. Compared with the combat effectiveness of infantry and cavalry, they could not be compared at all.
It can be imagined that a person, riding a thousand-jin war horse, holding a sharp long knife, charging at a speed of dozens of miles per hour, is completely a mobile fortress. Even if a cavalry rushes into the infantry formation, it will cause disaster.
Consequences of sex…
Although the city of Shuishui Pass is high and dangerous, and there are no worries about floods or droughts, staying here is not a long-term solution if you want to defeat the Crusaders.
The problem now is that Zhao Yuan cannot abandon Zhenshuiguan like he abandoned Bafang City, because behind Zhao Yuan, there are hundreds of thousands of refugees and a newly formed army of 100,000...
