Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 794
"But that bomb is a strange trick, not some kind of fairy art. It always doesn't have eyes and doesn't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy."

"If our army fights with the enemy army, they can't still use bombs to attack, wouldn't they even hurt their own people?"

"What's more, when this Shazhou City was built, it was thought that there would be a day of street fighting, so the streets and alleys in the city are very spacious, enough for the army to move around."

"We can rush out to fight the enemy from time to time, and if we find that we are invincible, we will retreat to a hiding place."

"The defenders of Shazhou City must be more familiar with the situation in the city than the opponent. If the opponent chases and kills rashly, they will fall into our army's trap."

"What's more, everyone is practicing day and night, working extremely hard. Even if you haven't been on the battlefield, if you really want to fight, it's hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker."

The subordinate explained his thoughts to Zhou Shahu in detail, and Zhou Shahu's eyes lit up when he heard the words.

"It makes sense. If we really want to fight with them, it's not certain who will win."

Only then did he realize that when he fought against the enemy before, he only thought about how to defend, but he never thought that he could also attack.

Now it seems that even if he takes the initiative to attack, it is not without chance of winning.

Thinking of this, he also patted the subordinate's shoulder, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I will do as you said."

"Since that's the case, pass on my order. The whole army must gather and find their own officers without delay."

"In addition, let Xiao Cheng lead eight thousand troops and start a counterattack. The rest of the army will all retreat to the north of the city. Without my order, they must not act rashly."

Although the terrain in Shazhou City is quite spacious enough for soldiers to fight the enemy in the city, there are a full [-] troops in the city, and if they really fight, they will definitely not be able to use it.

In order to make room for the vanguard, the other soldiers naturally had to find a place to stay first.

The adjutant immediately got out of the dental tent to pass on Zhou Shahu's order.

But not long after the adjutant came out of the tent, Zhou Shahu couldn't sit still: "No, I have to go to supervise the battle in person today. I want to see how powerful those Beihai soldiers are."

He picked up his saber and went out.

On the other side, Wu You led his men into the city. As soon as they entered the city, they encountered resistance.

He didn't even think about it, and immediately asked his men to bomb with grenades.

Fifty grenades blasted the surrounding land into potholes, and caused about 300 casualties to the defenders of Shazhou City.

This number is already quite a lot. Although a grenade can theoretically incapacitate at least 20 people, it needs enough space for the shrapnel to fly around.

In such a crowded place, the shrapnel cannot fly out, and the biggest impact on the soldiers is the impact of the explosion.

Under the impact of the bomb, the soldiers staggered one by one, and when they finally stood up again, how could they have the courage to fight against Wu You, and they all ran away quickly.

Seeing this scene, Wu You laughed disdainfully.

"I thought they'd have more backbone, but it turns out that's all there is to it."

After his words fell, he was not in a hurry to continue advancing, but asked his troops to search the surrounding area.

This is the city of Shazhou, so there will definitely be a lot of materials stored.

Although the current Beihai army is working under Qin Feng's command, and they are rich and powerful, of course there is no need to worry about not having enough food.

But this kind of free gift is not for nothing. Even if they take it, Zhou Shahu can still go to the court to sue them?
Naturally, Zhou Shahu's troops were not polite at all. They searched around and took away everything they saw that could be taken away.

In addition, Wu You had another thought in doing this. They didn't know the situation in Shazhou City, and they didn't know if there would be other ambushes around here. Naturally, they had to figure it out first.

Otherwise, it would be bad if someone suddenly attacked behind them when they pushed forward.

On the other side, after discussing with his subordinates, Zhou Shahu quickly found a way to deal with Wu You, that is to confront them head-on.

He immediately mobilized his troops and led his soldiers towards the city gate.

There are a total of [-] troops stationed in the entire Shazhou City. It is conceivable how big the Shazhou City can accommodate such a large army.

However, Zhou Shahu only kept 1 of them, and the rest of the troops moved to the north of Shazhou City as he said.

"What are those soldiers from Beihai doing now?"

"General, there are about 6 enemy troops outside the city, but less than 1 have entered the city. The rest of the troops are waiting outside the city."

"The [-] troops that entered the city, after repelling our troops just now, are currently searching the south of the city, and seem to have removed a lot of supplies from the city."

Hearing this, Zhou Shahu fell into deep thought.

"You really have the guts to treat my place as a warehouse?"

"Hmph, since that's the case, then I naturally want to show them some color."

After his words fell, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flickered.

The structure of Shazhou City is very simple. There are huge school grounds on the east and west sides, where soldiers practice on weekdays, and in the center is the big camp in the city, where generals like Zhou Shahu live.

On the one hand, as generals, they are naturally entitled to special treatment.

Of course, this is also because the generals live in the center of the city, allowing their orders to be transmitted to every corner of the city as quickly as possible.

In addition to the camp, the treasury of Shazhou City is also built here. The treasury stores the military pay and rations of the soldiers in the city.

In the north of Shazhou City, there was originally a school yard, but after some reconstruction ten years ago, it has now become a market in Shazhou City.

Vendors outside the city came to do business in the city, that is, in the north of the city. Basically, the money-spending places that can be seen in other cities can be seen here.

Of course, because there are military prostitutes in the army, there are no facilities like brothels here.

The military system of the Great Zhou Dynasty was the system of the Weisuo, which means that all those who join the army have military membership and have joined the army for generations.

People with military status don't need to worry about food, clothing and clothing from birth, and everything is naturally paid by the imperial court.

But there are also headaches. Once you become a member of the military, you need to serve in the army for generations.

People with military status have to join the army from the age of 16. If there is no successor, they have to stay in the barracks at least until they are 45 years old before leaving.

Otherwise, someone needs to inherit it, that is, after his son reaches the age of 16, he can also be discharged from the army.

But there are also cases where there is no child under the knee, and there is only a daughter, then a son-in-law is needed to inherit the position.
