The Republic of China: Twins with a beautiful start, navigating a troubled world

time flies!

In the blink of an eye, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and darkness fell, shrouding the busy city of "Xuchang County". The county town, which had been noisy all day, gradually became quiet.

Although Xuchang County cannot be compared with first-tier cities like Fengtai City, it is many times larger and more prosperous than Panlong County.

Xuchang County has a developed economy, a large amount of steel stock, and famous steel manufacturing plants in the province. It is for this reason that it attracts a large number of people to settle and work.

Of course, it has also become a delicious cake, and there are countless warlords secretly watching it.

However, Xuchang County has always been under observation and Zhou Hailong firmly held it in his hands. So far, no one has dared to take advantage of Xuchang County.

It's late at night!

The city gate is now closed and no one is allowed in or out.

At this moment, a group of soldiers suddenly appeared outside the city gate, walking towards this side in neat steps.

"Look, there's an army coming!"

"Army? Look carefully, who are they?"

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Zhou Army who were on guard immediately noticed this scene and immediately shined the lights on it. Some people picked up binoculars to watch.

Looking under the light, it was immediately clear that these people were members of the Zhou Jiajun, wearing Zhou Jiajun military uniforms, fully armed, and holding their heads high.

"Yes, it's the commander-in-chief. The commander-in-chief is back." The man holding the telescope suddenly exclaimed.

Under his gaze, he saw Zhou Hailong walking at the front of the team. Although he looked a little embarrassed at the moment, with disheveled hair and a bruised nose and face, his subordinates still recognized him at a glance.

"Hurry, open the city gate, the commander is back."

"Quick, go and inform the young marshal that the marshal is back."

Seeing that it was Zhou Hailong, everyone immediately became excited. While opening the city gate, they hurried to notify the young marshal.

The person responsible for guarding Xuchang County is Zhou Hailong's son Zhou Chengxing. He has more than 5,000 people under his command. The soldiers and horses are strong. Coupled with the strong defense projects in Xuchang County, it is difficult for ordinary enemies to break in.

However, these men did not notice that behind Zhou Hailong, Zhao He followed closely, holding a pistol in his hand and pressing it against Zhou Hailong's back. As long as he dared to act rashly, he would kill him without mercy.

Obviously, these people are all Tiandao soldiers. As for the clothes of the Zhou family army on their bodies, they were all ripped off from the Zhou family soldiers who surrendered, in order to confuse the enemy and lure them to open the city gate.

Looking at the distance, the door opened little by little, and the corners of Zhao He's mouth raised, revealing a sneer.

"Don't open the city gate, don't open the city gate! They are all..."

But at this moment, Zhou Hailong suddenly screamed wildly. Zhao He's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly grabbed him and covered his mouth.

However, Zhou Hailong was now obviously determined to die and refused to allow Zhao He and the others to enter the city smoothly, and began to struggle violently.

Above the city gate, the soldiers were watching this scene from a distance. When they saw Zhou Hailong's unusual behavior, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Da, what's wrong with the commander?"

"Something's wrong, hurry up, close the city gate, they have a problem."

Everyone shouted immediately. When the soldier who was responsible for opening the city gate heard this, he immediately prepared to close the city gate.

boom!

But at this moment, there was a gunshot, and a red signal flare shot into the sky, and then suddenly exploded in mid-air, erupting into a dazzling red light.

This shot was like lighting a fuse. The next second, there was a loud "bang bang bang" sound, and in the darkness in the southeast direction, shells suddenly burst out one after another, heading straight towards the city gate. come over.

In that direction, the Tiandao Army artillery company, led by Guo Feng, had already set up mortars at some point. As Zhao He conveyed the order, shells burst out one after another, throwing out parabolas. The next second , and then blasted directly in the direction of the city gate.

Boom boom boom!

They were bombarded indiscriminately for a long time. Under such intensive artillery fire, the people above the city gate were suddenly blown to their knees and their blood flowed into rivers.

"Ah! Quick, run! It's a mortar!"

"Quick, get down, be careful of the shells."

"Quick, go and inform the young marshal that the city gate is under enemy fire and seek support."

The soldiers guarding the city gate screamed and wailed, but they reacted quickly and immediately found a place to hide. Some of them immediately went to seek support.

However, despite their quick reactions and rich experience, they were suddenly unable to withstand the fierce attack of the Tiandao Army.

Almost as soon as the artillery fire started, Zhao He shot Zhou Hailong to death. This man had no use value anymore.

"Brothers, hit me, hit me hard!"

Zhao He shouted loudly!

The next second, the Tiandao Army pulled the trigger, and dense bullets exploded towards the city wall, killing every enemy immediately.

Not only that, the second and third teams of the Tiandao Army, led by Tang Li and Yuan Honggang, rushed over from the other two directions and fired wildly at the city wall.

Pistols, machine guns, and even grenades...

Coupled with the cover of the artillery company, the Zhou Army in Xuchang County did not dare to take the lead at all, and did not even have the chance to fire back.

The artillery fire was so fierce that they couldn't stop it.

At this time, Zhao He discovered that the city gate was still closing little by little.

"Give me the bazooka." Zhao He yelled at one of his men.

"Yes, handsome!"

The man responded immediately and hurriedly handed the rocket launcher he was carrying to Zhao He.

This rocket launcher was obviously purchased from the system mall. In order to prevent his younger brothers from being suspicious and thinking that he had conjured it up out of nowhere, he put the rocket launcher into the weapons depot of Zhou's army camp and used it as a captured item, and then asked one of his subordinates to Always carrying a rocket launcher.

After taking it, Zhao He immediately installed the cannonball, quickly put the rocket launcher on his shoulders, and aimed it in the direction of the gate.

The next second, he pulled the trigger directly.

boom!

With a loud noise, a cannonball shot out and hit the city gate.

There was a loud explosion, and the terrifying impact directly dented the big iron gate. As for the soldiers responsible for closing the big iron gate, they were blown away one by one and flew backwards, vomiting blood at the mouth. Lying on the ground like mud, he was probably seriously injured even if he didn't die.

boom!

Zhao He fired another rocket, and the big iron door that was about to close was blown open.

"Brothers, charge!" Zhao He gave the order to charge.

Everyone in the Tiandao Army immediately rushed forward, each and every one of them was extremely fierce, like a male lion. Looking at this momentum, people felt a sense of fear.

At the same time, Zhao He took out the signal gun again and fired a shot into the sky.

boom!

As a red signal flare soared into the sky and exploded in mid-air, blooming with a dazzling red light, the artillery battery immediately stopped its artillery attack.

After all, Zhao He and the others have already rushed to the city gate. If they continue to carry out artillery bombardment, they will inevitably hurt their own people, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
