The strongest Marquis in history

Arthur must win the Qi Kingdom.

As a Marshal, Philip failed. If he can first capture the Wa Kingdom, and then gain a foothold in the Qi Kingdom, and the news is sent back to China, he will also be able to become a Marshal of the Haixi Empire in the future.

This is what Arthur was looking forward to.

After receiving Arthur's words, Anthony felt relaxed and lifted up his heart.

This is a good opportunity to make a fortune if you let it be looted.

The warships were still on their way, and Arthur went straight back to his room to rest.

As time went by, when the warship approached the port of the Wa country, soldiers informed Arthur. At this time, Arthur came out from the cabin. He stood on the deck with a look of anticipation on his face, already looking forward to the coming good thing.

The warship is getting closer and closer to the sea port.When approaching the port of landing, Arthur ordered all the battleships to stop together, and then gave the order to fire.

The cannons on the battleships used as firepower to continuously bombard the shore.

The sound of rumbling cannons resounded continuously.

Arthur arranged this way in order to block the troops on the shore from blocking, so that the soldiers under his command could land and land on the shore.

Arthur is not a fledgling fledgling, he has already experienced many battles on the battlefield, and he knows that fighting on the battlefield is not easy.He came from the sea with an army, not thinking of the strength of his own side, and quietly and undetected.

On the contrary, Arthur believed that his strength must have been discovered early on, and the Qi army must have been prepared.

So bombard it first to suppress the firepower on the shore.As the cannons roared, small boats quickly descended from the battleship, and batches of soldiers entered the small boats and headed to the shore.

As long as Arthur's troops landed on the shore first, everything would be easy.

This is Arthur's plan.

When Arthur's soldiers rushed forward quickly, there were already fortifications built far from the shore.

The person in charge in the army was Xu Xiaolong, a subordinate under Xu Nanfeng's command, and he was from Xu Nanfeng's village.He is also a brave general in the army, not only good at fighting, but also good at managing artillery.

Xu Xiaolong's eyes fell on the sea, and with the help of binoculars, he could clearly see the warships on the sea.

At this moment, small boats kept rushing forward.

This is a surprise landing.

Xu Xiaolong looked around the sea again. Except for the fifteen warships of the Hercynian Empire, there were no other warships.

The corner of Xu Xiaolong's mouth curled into a smile.

Fifteen warships, even if there are 3 or [-] people, they are all here to die.

In Xu Xiaolong's previous letter sent back to Tokyo, he had already said that he wanted to lure the enemy to go deep in order to wipe out the opponent.To Xu Xiaolong, the troops of the Hercynian Empire came from afar, and they looked powerful, but they were actually rootless.

Because of the opponent, there is a lack of logistical supplies.

Once the opponent's warship is destroyed, the rear of the entire Hercynian Empire will be completely finished, and there will be no chance to retreat. This tactic is also the experience of the confrontation between the Qi State and the Hercynian Empire.

Xu Xiaolong withdrew his gaze, looked at the orderly beside him, and ordered: "Send the order, all the cannons in the fortifications will start bombing, let's bomb the small ships of the Haixi Empire, and bomb their warships by the way."

"Yes!"

The orderly made arrangements immediately.

boom! !

The sound of firing suddenly rang out.

Boom! !

The sound of firing guns one after another continued to resound.Mortars fired quickly.Cannonballs flew through the air and landed on the sea in a blink of an eye.

The shells exploded, the waves were everywhere, and many small boats where soldiers of the Hercynian Empire were located were directly blown over, so that the warship capsized, the soldiers fell into the sea, and some were directly killed.

Xu Xiaolong looked at this scene with a calm expression.It is not surprising that several soldiers of the Hercynian Empire were killed, and it would not affect the overall situation.With the continuous bombardment of shells, not a few soldiers of the Haixi Empire died under the cannons.

However, the opponent's small boat quickly forcibly landed.In a short time, it was already close to the shore of the ferry.One after another, the warships docked, and the soldiers of the Haixi Empire landed and began to go ashore.

These people were very familiar with building fortifications on the shore and began to counterattack so that the soldiers in the rear could quickly catch up with them.

Xu Xiaolong saw all this in his eyes, his expression was still calm, without any panic.

What he has to do now is very simple, first simply block it, and then pretend to be invincible, luring the enemy to go deep.

This is the correct way to fight.

When more and more Haixi Empire soldiers landed and docked, these people began to advance the front line.Xu Xiaolong immediately ordered to shoot and attack again. At this time, he used the power of the rifle to suppress the soldiers of the Haixi Empire who were rushing forward.

Cannons, rifles, and cross-attacks severely suppressed the soldiers of the Haixi Empire who were about to attack.

Although the soldiers of the Haixi Empire were still advancing, under the pressure of rifles and cannons, countless soldiers of the Haixi Empire were killed or injured.In a short period of time, the soldiers of the Haixi Empire failed to make a breakthrough.

Arthur stood on the deck, looking at the situation on the front line.When he saw the fighting in this battle, he still failed to break through quickly, and there was no panic on his face, but his fighting spirit was burning.

This kind of fierce fighting is really commonplace, too simple and too ordinary, there is nothing to worry about at all.

Isn't fighting to kill people?

Arthur just gave an order for a strong attack, as long as he broke through the defense line of Qi's army, he could kill them.

This is a great opportunity.

For the soldiers of the Haixi Empire, they were also extremely excited.Coming from the White Elephant Kingdom, a group of people were suffocated along the way. After entering the Wa Kingdom, they could vent their anger wantonly, and naturally they all attacked violently.

Under the fierce offensive of the Haixi Empire, the distance between the two sides is rapidly narrowing.

One hundred steps!

Eighty steps!

Sixty steps!

When the distance between the two sides was reduced to less than [-] steps, the soldiers of the Hercynian Empire landed and docked on a large scale, and entered the port in large numbers.

Xu Xiaolong did not use grenades, nor did he arrange landmines and other weapons to stop him.According to the news of several previous fights with the Hercynian Empire, the Hercynian Empire did not have grenades, landmines and other weapons.

So these weapons are Xu Xiaolong's trump card.If grenades and other weapons are used in the current fight, scaring the soldiers of the Hercynian Empire, it will be difficult to deal with it later.

Today's fighting is still done with rifles.

The distance is shortened again.

When the soldiers of the Haixi Empire were less than [-] steps away from the line of defense, it was easier to shoot and kill the soldiers of the Haixi Empire.

Xu Xiaolong's eyes flashed brightly, and he ordered: "Withdraw the troops, all retreat."

With an order, Xu Xiaolong himself quickly retreated.After a burst of shooting, all the soldiers under his command left the battlefield quickly, and no longer stopped the soldiers of the Haixi Empire who were killed on the battlefield.

Everyone retreated quickly, and the soldiers of the Haixi Empire quickly pursued them.

In this battle, it is necessary to defeat the opponent.

Arthur saw this scene with a bright smile on his face. He looked at Anthony, the staff officer beside him, with a complacent expression, and said with a smile, "Anthony, did you see that? Our army has easily broken through the line of defense."

"Break through the past this time and win the Wa country, and it will be just around the corner."

"I've already said that the army of Qi State here is vulnerable. After all, most of Qi State's main forces are in Qi State's home court. How many people can be stationed in Wa State?"

"Also, it's impossible for them to be all elite troops."

At this moment, Arthur seemed very confident.

He already thought that there would be no suspense in this battle.

Anthony echoed: "General Arthur is indeed far-sighted, and he can see the problems of the Wa Kingdom at a glance. Now our team has landed on a large scale, and we can also start to land."

Arthur nodded and said: "Get ready, we will also start landing. After we land, we will first destroy this army of Qi, capture their camp, and take their supplies and food. Next, we will find a town , Wanton looting to vent. The fighting spirit of the soldiers needs to fulfill their promises before they can be improved."

Anthony was a little excited for a while, and said, "It is true."

Arthur said again: "Send the order, the army will land on a large scale, directly defeat the army of Qi State, and take down the camp of Qi State."

"Yes!"

Anthony made arrangements immediately.

Following Anthony's order, the battleships of the entire Hercynian Empire began to move forward rapidly one after another.When the distance gets closer to the shore of the port, all land and dock.All the soldiers began to participate in the attack, trying to destroy Qi's army in one go.

Arthur and Anthony also brought soldiers and joined the pursuit team.

The chasing team is getting bigger and bigger.

It's just that when the soldiers of Qi State on both sides retreated, they were orderly and fast.So much so that although the soldiers of the Haixi Empire caught up with the soldiers of the Qi State, the distance between the two sides always existed, so that it was impossible to defeat the retreating Qi State army.

The two sides ran and fled, and in the blink of an eye, the distance from the port to the sea became farther and farther, and the distance was already more than ten miles.

Xu Xiaolong retreated with his people. After withdrawing such a long distance, he saw batches of fortifications appearing on the official road in front of him. These fortifications had already been built by Xu Xiaolong long ago.

Only with fortifications can we fight back.

Xu Xiaolong's plan is to lure the enemy into the depths first.Wait for the enemy to approach, and then counterattack on a large scale.Because the journey of more than ten miles is enough to consume too much time, which is precisely the basis of action.

Xu Xiaolong ordered everyone to take their positions and began to block.As batches of teams entered the fortifications, in the blink of an eye, the soldiers of the Haixi Empire who were chasing after them also caught up.

"shot!"

"Call me."

Xu Xiaolong shouted the order.

After being chased for such a long distance, he was already running hot and sweating profusely.That is to say, the soldiers in the army are used to running long distances, but I don't think there is anything unaccustomed to it.

One by one, the soldiers fired quickly.

The soldiers of the Haixi Empire who were chasing quickly looked proud.Suddenly, they were attacked, and they were a little surprised. Under a burst of rifle fire, many soldiers of the Haixi Empire were shot and killed.

These soldiers of the Haixi Empire are all red-eyed, and they want to wipe out all the soldiers of Qi State so that they can plunder wantonly in nearby towns.

Without destroying the Qi garrison, they will not be able to rob wantonly.

Therefore, the task must be completed.

Groups of Haixi Empire soldiers continued to rush forward despite the hail of bullets.Under such a sprint, the distance between the two sides began to shorten rapidly again. In a short time, the distance was less than sixty steps.

The sound of gunshots was endless.

Voices come and go.

Soldiers of the Haixi Empire fell to the ground one by one, and more and more people were killed.

Even so, the distance is rapidly closing.When the distance was shortened to about [-] steps, the Qi soldiers who had been prepared a long time ago picked up the grenades they had prepared a long time ago, and quickly threw them out.

A grenade fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, there was a rapid explosion.

Rumbling explosions, one after another, echoed in the air.

One by one, the soldiers of the Haixi Empire were constantly blown to the ground, and more and more people died.Originally, the Hercynian Empire's offensive was extremely swift and violent, but now there is no offensive at all. They were blown up and down, and many people were killed.

There was even a look of horror in the eyes of the soldiers of the Haixi Empire.

what weapon is this?

Why didn't you encounter such a weapon during the previous attack?

The soldiers at the front of the Hercynian Empire were blown up, and they were terrified, but the soldiers who were killed from the rear diverged and continued to rush forward, constantly attacking.Under the continuous onslaught, they failed to break through, and the soldiers of the Haixi Empire who rushed forward were killed and injured more and more.

The news quickly spread to Arthur's ears behind him. The expression on Arthur's face was full of surprise and disbelief.

How can it be?

Qi's army has been defeated.

The army fled, how could it resist halfway?

Arthur didn't think about it for the time being, he directly ordered a fierce attack, and asked the soldiers under his command to attack further, intending to break through Qi's defense line.As long as Qi's defense line is broken, defeating the opponent will be just around the corner.

Arthur and Anthony sat in the rear, commanding steadily, but about a quarter of an hour passed, and there was still no breakthrough. The soldiers in front were still blocked, and more and more soldiers were killed or injured.

This situation gave Arthur a bad feeling in his heart.

The situation is not right!

Anthony suddenly said: "General Arthur, we are being blocked here now. Judging from the situation, the opponent is deliberately luring the enemy to go deep. Then, is there an enemy ambush in the area where our battleship is located? They want to attack our battleship."

"not good!"

When Arthur heard it, his face changed drastically, and he said: "This is a trick of the people of Qi. They deliberately lured the enemy to go deep, keep us away from the port where we enter the sea, and then intend to deal with our warships. This situation is very pessimistic. "

Anthony said: "General Arthur, all the warships are our foundation. Once the warships are blown up one by one, we will have no way of retreat. Withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops immediately."

Anthony made a suggestion.
