With the roar of war drums, thousands of warships finally entered the effective firing range hundreds of meters away!

About a few hundred meters away, the heavy crossbows on countless warships of the Blue Moon Empire began to scatter towards the south bank of Hansi City. For a moment, arrows rained like locusts, shooting straight towards the beautiful south of Hansi City.

After one wave of arrows after another, many people on the Blue Moon Empire's warship were dumbfounded. They were about to dock, but not even a wave of rebellious arrows fell on their heads!

Soon, large and small warships docked one after another. Many people couldn't wait to jump off the warships and shouted slogans to embolden themselves to kill the enemy. They went straight to Hansi City and rushed in. They thought they would be attacked by the mighty army before they docked. Blocking the attack, I never thought that I would be able to wash up on the shore without any resistance.

Being able to make it ashore alive is of course the best thing for these Blue Moon Empire soldiers who are at the forefront!

"Kill!" More and more Blue Moon Empire troops entered Hansi City, waving their weapons excitedly, shouting and rushing into the streets of Hansi City.

As time went by, many soldiers of the Blue Moon Empire were shocked to find that there was no trace of the Haotian Empire army in the entire Hansi City. However, there were quite a few civilians in Hansi City. Some bold Hansi City civilians, He actually didn't even close the stalls on the street. He was just doing business while watching the Blue Moon Empire's army running around in the street.

"You! Tell us quickly, where is the main force of the Haotian Empire?!" After realizing something was wrong, a general of the Blue Moon Empire finally pulled over a Hansi City citizen and shouted loudly.

"General! The Haotian Empire's army has gradually withdrawn from Hansi City early this morning. They also told us that there is no need to be afraid. There will be no war in Hansi City. Let us continue to live in the city with peace of mind!" The people at the collar replied with some fear.

"Abandon defending the city?!" the Blue Moon Empire general muttered in surprise.

Soon, the news that the defenders of Hansi City and the Haotian Empire withdrew from the city spread like wildfire. This news surprised and delighted the three commanders of the Blue Moon Empire. They were able to successfully capture the city without spending a single soldier. They were naturally excited to get to Hansi City!

"Two marshals! What's the plot of this Du Long?! He actually gave up the city of Hans and refused to defend it?! Are you taking advantage of us?!" Elliott, the commander of the Southeast Theater, asked in surprise.

"I also find it very suspicious! Giving us a city for nothing is incredible, isn't it?!" Cui Yuanhai, the commander of the Southwest Theater Corps, was also confused.

"Haha! No matter how much he does, if you can take Hansi City without any blood, at least you can explain it to the emperor brother!" Jin Yanri, the temporary commander-in-chief of the three armies, thought of it wisely.

"The coach is right! We control the entire Hansi River waterway, we can attack when we advance, and we can defend when we retreat. Moreover! The military aircraft department urgently called us, asking us to occupy the Hexi Corridor as quickly as possible and build fortifications there! Hansi! The battle in Sicheng can only be fought quickly! No matter what conspiracy Du Long has, he has given us plenty of time!" A legion general gave him a respectful flattery!

"That's right! No matter what plots the Haotian Empire has, we can take advantage of them and seize the opportunity to occupy the Hexi Corridor and cut off the only passage between the two major war zones in the east and west of the Haotian Empire! By then, we will be able to defeat them one by one!" Another legion general spoke. road.

"Haha! That's right! If you don't dare to enter the empty city, then you have really fallen into Du Long's empty city plan! Send the order, and the whole army will cross the river at full speed. They must all cross the Hansi River this afternoon! By then, we will Celebrating in Hansi City!" Jin Yanri laughed triumphantly.

As a result, the Blue Moon Empire's two to three million troops began to cross the river and head north. Each trip could transport more than 300,000 cavalry or 600,000 infantry across the other side. The two to three million troops only needed a dozen round trips to complete the task. !

With the right to control the river, the Blue Moon Empire's army began to march towards the north bank of the river with almost no obstacles!

In order to facilitate the command of the army, the three commanders and deputy commanders, together with dozens of commanders and deputy generals, rushed to the city of Hans on the north bank of the Hans River in advance, and then began to mobilize troops and generals. First, they mobilized the entire three armies to go eastward as much as possible. Control the Hexi Corridor in the eastern part of Qingyun Grassland at a fast speed!

According to intelligence, there is no main enemy force within a few hundred miles of the Hexi Corridor. This shows that the Haotian Empire does not know the strategic intentions of the Blue Moon Empire!

It stands to reason that before the three armies move, food and grass will go first. However, in order to save time this time, the Blue Moon Empire tried every means, and finally came up with the most primitive and good way, allowing each soldier to bring ten days' worth of food. Set off, rush to the Hexi Corridor first, occupy that area as quickly as possible, and then send troops to transport food and grass from Hansi City to the Hexi Corridor!

Therefore, without waiting for grain and grass to be transported from the south bank of the Hansi River, the 600,000-strong army of the three legions left the city of Hansi and marched eastward along the bank of the Hansi River, heading straight for the Hexi Corridor!

After sending away the three legions, the three Blue Moon Empire coaches secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The reduction of 600,000 troops also reduced the huge pressure on Hansi City!

If two to three million troops were all crowded into Hansi City, it would be a big pressure on the Blue Moon Empire's army!

. . . . . .

The holy city of Hassam is the holy city of the prairie people!

At this moment, the entire western part of the Holy City is occupied by 400,000 newly reorganized troops from the Guide Army, the eastern part is occupied by 300,000 prairie cavalry, and the southern part, facing the direction of Hans City, is occupied by 200,000 elite troops from the Haotian Zhongwu Legion plus 30 prairie people. An elite army of ten thousand cavalry!

The entire Holy City of Hassam has assembled an army of 1.2 million, almost surrounding the entire Holy City of Hassam in a half-moon shape, leaving only the west side of the Holy City undefended!

In the commander's tent of the Zhongwu Army, all the important generals from the Qingyun Grassland War Zone of the Haotian Empire were gathered. There were dozens of generals above the rank of deputy general, standing respectfully in the commander's tent, following the orders of Du Long, the youngest commander in the mainland. !

Everyone looked at the young man sitting high in the commanding position with admiring eyes. Just now, Tan Ma came to report that the Blue Moon Empire people had not yet established a foothold in Hans City, and they hurriedly sent out 600,000 soldiers. The troops went east and headed straight for the Hexi Corridor!

Before that, Du Long told them that once the Blue Moon Empire occupied Hans City, they would definitely send three legions of troops to the eastern Hexi Corridor!

It didn't take long before the intelligence came in that confirmed what he said. There was a coach who knew what was going on. Looking at the confident figure in the coach's seat, everyone at the scene became more confident in this battle. !

"Master Marshal! Why don't we launch an attack on the Blue Moon Empire while their army is still unstable?!" Inside the commander's tent, the Prairie King asked with some confusion.

"That's right! The people of the Blue Moon Empire were too anxious. They didn't even move the food and grass. They sent three legions of 600,000 troops to the Hexi Corridor first. We only need to cut off the passage between Hansi City and the Hexi Corridor. By then, , The enemy troops in the Hexi Corridor haven't just starved to death?!" Even Du Zhentian also questioned.

"The city of Hans that we finally captured was given away in vain. It would be very unpleasant to watch the enemy gain a foothold on our territory!" Kang Tuo, the leader of the Guide Army, interjected at the right moment. .

Looking at the generals of the legions with a smile, Du Long responded calmly: "Why are you so anxious?! Killing ten thousand enemies and damaging eight thousand yourself! I won't do it! The soldiers in our hands, then But they are all good men of flesh and blood, and we cannot let them die easily! Only when the enemy army is defeated and the army is allowed to charge, can our losses be minimized!"

"Let's talk about it! Let us have an army of one million to intercept other people's life passages? Are all the generals of the Blue Moon Empire idiots? Wouldn't they have thought of this trick?! How dare they send three major legions to show such a big show? A flaw?!"

"You stinky boy!" Du Zhentian was obviously ruthlessly rejected by his son because of his suggestion. He suddenly felt a little embarrassed and scolded with a red face: "Then you should analyze it and see how such a good opportunity will be for us. What’s the disadvantage?!”

"It's very simple! Our military strength is only half of theirs. How can we block their way with less advantageous troops? What's the difference between sending them ourselves and being surrounded by them?!" Du Long showed a slight expression of anger when faced with his father's question. replied awkwardly.

"This..." Du Zhentian's old face turned even redder. He didn't know how to refute for a while, but the Prairie King came to his rescue and said: "If we send the elite prairie cavalry to intercept the road, we can still rush out if something goes wrong. Yes, after all, on the grassland, the mobility of the cavalry is absolutely impressive!"

"No! No matter what method is used to cut off the road, even if it succeeds, we will have to sacrifice a lot of subordinates. As the commander-in-chief, I don't want to see my good men die in a meaningless war of attrition!" Du Long He immediately shook his head and refused.

He valued the lives of his men so much, which moved all the generals present, especially Kangtuo and Gass, the commanders of the first and second regiments of Guide!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see from this formation that coach Du Long actually placed his family's main force, the Zhongwu Legion, in the most dangerous forward position, instead of using the slave army as cannon fodder like the Blue Moon Empire. The Federal Army Regiment is the second cannon fodder!

Instead, he used his family's main army as cannon fodder. Such an arrangement had already moved the Prairie King and the generals of the Guided Army!

Everyone has a feeling, a feeling of finding a sense of belonging. All along, under the rule of the Blue Moon Empire, they have never felt that they are members of the Blue Moon Empire, but an inferior race that is inferior to outsiders!

Well now, Haotian Empire's various benevolent methods have made them feel that they are not inferior to the main army of Haotian Empire!

"You brat! Then tell me, how are you going to fight in the next battle?! You're not going to have a large-scale battle with the Blue Moon Empire's army on the grassland, are you? In that case, it's even worse! There is no technicality at all, and our casualties will probably be even more serious!" In front of dozens of major and deputy generals from several legions, Du Zhentian was not polite to Du Long at all.

It's not that he doesn't know that the coach should be given face on such occasions, but the people from the prairie and slave legions have just joined this team. If it's too formal, it's easy to be alienated from them.

On the contrary, this method of communication, which did not consider them as outsiders, made all the generals present feel very relaxed. This is clear just by looking at the relaxed smiles on the faces of all the generals present!

The third chapter will start today. If you vote at the end of the month, you will get one more chapter with one vote! Let us work hard together!
