Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 308 Encounter and persuasion

Town of Franklin.

This is an important industrial town in the south of Xifeng, and it is also one of the places where the southern army supplies equipment and weapons.

There are more than a dozen large steel factories in the town here, which can produce firearms, vehicles, and chariots. It is a very important production base for Xifeng.

But at this moment, it is in danger here.

Because it is too close to Kote City, less than [-] kilometers away.This distance, in the case of the fall of Kote City, may be attacked by the Dong'an army at any time.

For this reason, the sheriff of the town has issued a call, requiring every resident with a gun to unite, take to the streets, join the police force, and hold their positions together, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from Xifeng's army.

Many local people responded to the call, most of them were workers, and a team of more than 2000 people was formed in half a day.

Sheriff Seth was very satisfied with people's enthusiasm. He gave a public speech, telling people that as long as they fought bravely, they would be rewarded and honored in the future.

Motivation is high, with patriotism and anticipation of rewards.

Of course, there are also a large number of people who have doubts and fears in their hearts.

The biggest source of this doubt and fear is the previous fiasco.

The former West Maple people didn't have any particular worries about the war, probably because they had always been the winners, and all they saw were the benefits of the war, not the disadvantages.

There are even situations where many young people yearn for war and romanticize war.

However, the previous disastrous defeat in the South China Sea seemed to have given these people a slap in the face, waking them up from their romantic dreams.

People will only truly regret it when it hurts their skin.

In the disastrous defeat in the South China Sea, many of those Xifeng soldiers who died were children from ordinary families. Many of their families found it difficult to accept the sad news.

Only then will they reflect that wars were always won in the past, but it is impossible to keep winning.

This is the reason why a war must be dangerous, and one day the one who fails and dies will be himself.

These families formed the main force against the war, especially after learning of the fall of Cote.They are more afraid of death than revenge against the Dong'an people.

After these few battles, many people in Xifeng were really scared out of their wits by Dong'an, and they no longer had that incomparable arrogance and arrogance.

These people are certainly not what Sheriff Seth wants.

He felt that these people would only cause disturbance, so he ordered them not to go out.

He only led more than 2000 people who were willing to fight against the Dong'an army, guarded several gates in Frantan Town, and arranged many rangers to do scouting work.

It's just that they didn't expect that the Dong'an people came faster than they thought.

The sky was getting dark, and towards evening, a group of chariots came from the road in the distance.

The Xifeng militiamen on the slopes outside the town were very nervous. Although these people had guns in their hands, most of them had never been on the battlefield, and many of them had never even fired. The combat effectiveness can be imagined.

On the other hand, the convoy of the Dong'an Army has a total of forty or fifty vehicles, and at least a few hundred people have come.

Two thousand versus a few hundred seems to have a great advantage, but in reality it is not.

Sergeant Seth held the rifle in his hand and was very disturbed.

He knew very well that if hundreds of professional Dong'an soldiers came, the two thousand or so people on his side would really be in danger.

The gap between professional soldiers and ordinary militiamen is not that big.

A professional soldier with a casualty rate of 30% may not be defeated, while the militia team is estimated to have a casualty rate of 10%.

If you want to win, there is only one way, and that is to rely on the large number of people to eliminate the vitality of a large number of enemies first.

Seth thought, and asked his men to go down and inform the militia groups that as soon as he fired, the others would all open fire on Dongan's convoy.

At this moment, the Dong'an convoy stopped, just outside the attack range of the militia.

Seston gritted his teeth nervously, wondering if the ambush on his side had been discovered?

Impossible, everyone is hiding behind the slope!There are so many weeds half a person's height on the slope, how can it be possible to see them from such a distance?
Seth had a good idea, the naked eye could not see their ambush, but the crux of the problem was that the Dong'an army was not all composed of ordinary soldiers.

It's ordinary soldiers + martial arts masters + assistance team.

Ordinary soldiers and assistance teams can't see it, but martial arts masters have people who are good at sensing skills, and they can vaguely detect someone behind the slope.

According to the past experience of Dong'an soldiers, there is no need to say anything at this time, just cover a round with firepower first.

Those with ambushes can be blown out the best, and those without ambushes can be used as shells to buy peace of mind.Anyway, shells are worthless, and Su Yuan's budget for this is quite sufficient.

To be precise, it was too sufficient. He seemed to be afraid that Dong'an soldiers would run out of ammunition, and each unit was equipped with enough weight to support its saturation strike.

But the previous experience can't be used now because of the existence of the assisting team.

Therefore, Seth and others, who were ambushing behind the slope, saw several chariots open, and a group of Xifeng people with the same skin color and pupils came down from above.

"This is!"

"Damn it! It's ours!"

"Are they captives???"

"It's not like..."

The appearance of the assistance team caused the militiamen in ambush to fall into a certain degree of chaos.

Some people thought these people were captives, but there were no ropes on their bodies, and there were no marks of beatings on their faces.

Dozens of people in the assistance team looked at the towering slopes on both sides of the road ahead, feeling equally nervous.

Just now they were told by Dong'an soldiers that there were people ambushing behind the slope, and their task was to communicate with these people and get them to lay down their weapons.

Dong'an soldiers will only give them 10 minutes of communication time. If this time is exceeded, the attack mode will be activated.

Time was running out, and even though they were worried about being beaten, the people in the assisting team ran towards the slope one after another.After all, this is their job, and what they earn is this dangerous money.

Seeing this, Seth, who was lying in ambush behind the slope, knew that his side had been exposed, so he stood up and shouted, "Stop! Run forward and shoot!"

He pointed his gun at the men of the assistance team, who stopped in their tracks and shouted, "We're not carrying weapons!"

In order to show that they were not threatening, the members of the assistance team took off their clothes one after another to let Seth and others see that they were not "human bombs" and did not carry any explosives on their bodies.

Seeing this, Seth and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and let them approach dubiously.

When the people from the assistance team went up the slope, they were greeted with doubts and vigilance.

Seth asked himself: "What's going on with you? Have you been held hostage by the Dong'an people?"

Arthur, as the captain of this assisting team, is also in charge of explaining at this time.

Unexpectedly, the moment he opened his mouth, the atmosphere became extremely tense.

"We are actually here to persuade you to surrender."

"what?!!"

"Bastard! What did you say!"

As soon as Arthur opened his mouth, there were several voices of surprise and cursing. Sheriff Seth was also very surprised, and then he asked with a sullen face, "You Xifeng people are willing to be Dong'an's lackeys?!"
