Chapter 56: Occupying the Mall

"General! There were less than a hundred casualties in the battle today!" Lu Su also looked at the gradually dim scenery outside the pass and replied with a little sigh: "From the defense of the heavenly chasm, and then to the counterattack, until now occupying the pass under his feet, the entire army suffered less than a thousand casualties, and our army could be considered to have minor casualties!"

"A thousand casualties!" Di Qing sighed, looked back at the world behind him, and sighed: "With this pass, it is worthy of defeating the heroic spirit of the martyrs!"

He then said to Lu Su: "Leave half of the field artillery and let General Zhang come back to lead the guard brigade to guard this pass. Our battle is not over yet!"

Lu Su clasped his fists and took the order seriously, "Yes, General! I'll send someone to pass on the order!"

Di Qing issued this order because information was transmitted from the country, and there were some abnormal movements in the territory outside this pass.

Moreover, the basins within the pass have not been occupied yet, and there are still three cities waiting for him to attack.

Fortunately, there are few warable soldiers in the basin, especially if you only need to open the walls and castles of Shangdao City, capture or destroy the seven lords inside, you can be considered as completely occupying the entire basin.

At noon the next day, Zhang Wei led the cavalry who had cleared the remaining enemies to the newly occupied pass.

"General Zhang, the information shows that there are some abnormal movements in the territory outside this pass. I am afraid that the visitors are not good. General Zhang also needs to lead his original men and horses to defend this place!"

During the military discussion that afternoon, Lu Su explained Zhang Wei the situation at this moment at the warning.

Then Lu Su explained: "General Zhang's guard brigade is mostly light-armed warriors and is suitable for defense. General Di also left half of the artillery for General Zhang to help with defense!"

Di Qing took advantage of Lu Su's words and ordered: "So, I have to trouble General Zhang to garrison here. I will also attack the stubborn Shangdao City!"

Zhang Wei listened to the two of them with expressionless expression. Finally, after listening, he stood up and fisted at Di Qing and said, "Since General Di and Staff General Lu, you have all said this, I will just follow the orders."

Because Zhang Wei was only the deputy commander, and Di Qing and Lu Su explained in detail to him, he had to stay in this pass.

He was not a ungrateful person. Through this war cooperation, Zhang Wei knew the character of Di Qing and Lu Su, and also knew that this was not deliberately alienating him.

Because for so long, Di Qing would always send him up as long as there was a suitable combat opportunity. Even in the past few days, the cavalry he led was a little too busy.

So he accepted Di Qing's arrangement without any objection.

After seeing Zhang Wei cooperated so well at this time, Di Qing nodded with satisfaction.

Since the negotiation was decided, Di Qing and his troops from the infantry brigade were leading towards the Shangdao City early the next morning.

"General! I wonder what do you think of General Zhang?" On the way back, Lu Su hesitated for a long time, looked around, and couldn't help asking this question.

When Di Qing heard this question, he frowned at first, and looked at Lu Su without answering it. After seeing Lu Su's serious expression, he thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say!"

When Lu Su heard Di Qing's answer, he knew what the other party meant. He smiled and stopped asking more questions and continued to rush forward.

Lu Su also asked Di Qing about the same question before the war, but the results before and after were a little different.

...

The journey back to Shangdao City was very calm, without the harassment of the enemy, and no abnormalities happened, only some civilians who fled.

It is already the end of June, and the second season of rice in Xia is about to be harvested. The people of Xia are looking forward to a good harvest.

Fortunately, there is sufficient fertilizer supply, otherwise even if the sunlight and moisture are enough, the fertility in the land will not be enough.

The war outside the heavenly chasm is about to come to an end.

"What's going on in the city?" Di Qing came to the position in the west of the city and asked the officers here.

"Report to General Di! In the past ten days, there has been no movement in the city!" The one who stayed outside the city was Yu Shu, the staff officer of the guard brigade.

Yu Shu has been doing logistics work as soon as he comes. When he needs the militia to disguise the main army, he will drop him from the temporary logistics support department back to the front line and stick to it until now.

After the defensive stage, although the logistics pressure has increased but not decreased, there are much fewer things that need to be decided in time, and there is no need for a military staff to make a decision in time. Therefore, Yang Ren from the Later Security Bureau re-elected as the head of logistics support.

Moreover, Yang Ren also learned a lot of useful experience in this process and has grown a lot. The subsequent logistics support work can be handled much more completely.

When Di Qing saw the city wall that had been standing in front of him for many days, he ordered: "Destroy the city wall and attack the whole army!"

With Di Qing's order, the gunpowder that had been buried was ignited. Amid the earth-shaking explosion, the entire city wall in front of him turned into gravel and flew into the sky.

In the castle of Shangdao City, the lords were shocked after receiving the news that reinforcements were intercepted and defeated. Then they became extremely crazy. After the madness, the wine and color sublimated and the pleasure was full of pleasure.

Especially Lord Cave, his last little confidence was extremely desperate to be hit by the news of the soldiers fleeing back to the city!

He couldn't believe it at first, but after being confirmed, his whole body collapsed, followed by hysterical roars and despair. Finally, he let all the guards go out, leaving behind naked maids, and embarked on a crazy journey to the wine pool and meat forest with the other lords.

Because they all knew that they could no longer run away, there were 20,000 enemies outside the city surrounding several city gates, and even if they wanted to escape, they would not have enough troops.

They can't hold on, and they can't run away. After despair, they only have this little madness to vent.

Finally, the other powerful people and the people who learned the news were in chaos in the whole city, fearing that the enemy would come in immediately and make some preparations.

What food, slaves, as long as there is something that can save their lives, no matter what kind of rumor or whether it is useful or not, the powerful are all preparing, while ordinary civilians can only wait for the judgment of fate.

According to the rumors, the Xia Kingdom is said to be breaking the convention this time. No matter whether it is the lord or the territory, the Xia Kingdom will not let go, let alone ordinary civilians - the credit from the Intelligence Bureau!

Until just now, a shocking sound declared the fall of this city and also represented the birth of the war!

But there is still a last point in the war, that is, thorough cleaning and control this basin!
