Feed the whole people, I just lie down and win

Chapter 107 Crossing the river for the second time, Monroe County is destroyed!
The night is cold as water.

Unlike the pitch blackness of last night, the sky is cloudless tonight.

The bright moonlight poured down.

In order to prevent the Chang'an Army from crossing the river overnight and staging another sneak attack, the coalition headquarters arranged for a total of [-] soldiers to set up checkpoints along the banks of the Merlot River.

At night, a raging bonfire was lit, and every move on the other side of the river was closely watched.

It was five o'clock in the morning.

It is the most difficult and slack moment for patrol soldiers.

A monster octopus suddenly protruded its huge arms and legs from the Melo River, turning into a lifeline, swishing, and in the blink of an eye, it dragged the patrolling soldiers on the bank into the river.

Before the others could react, they were also entangled by another arm.

The eight-clawed octopus monster did all it could to solve a group of patrolling soldiers in an instant.

follow.

The octopus monster stretched its arms and legs across the Meiruo River, building a natural bridge.

"on!"

The heavy cavalry lurking on the other side of the river early in the morning led their horses, passed the octopus bridge, crossed the Melo River at the fastest speed, and disappeared into the vast wilderness.

Similar scenario.

Simultaneously played in five other locations.

With the assistance of the six-headed octopus headed by Paul, the regrouped Tiger Brigade, Leopard Brigade, and Tiger Brigade crossed the Merlot River again.

Divide into six strands.

Qiqi entered the territory of Monroe County across the river.

The next scene was almost exactly the same as yesterday's surprise attack on the three counties.

The difference is.

In the past, three heavy cavalry brigades attacked three counties at the same time, but now they are attacking Monroe County concentratedly.

The greater the strength, the faster the action will naturally be.

After the three heavy cavalry brigades were assembled on the other side of the Meiruo River, they were transformed into more than a hundred cavalry squads with battalions and teams as units, and quickly dispersed.

Go to their respective attack destinations.

kill.

Once again staged!

.........

town of lark.

"General, something serious happened!"

Rutgers was awakened again by a rapid knock on the door.

"what's the situation?"

When he opened the door and saw the panicked expression of Staff Officer Mike, Rogers' heart sank again.

Why can't people sleep peacefully?
"The intelligence personnel we arranged on the Folding City forum urgently reported that just now, the territory of Monroe County was attacked again, and the lord was resurrected in Folding City."

"Again?"

Rogers looked gloomy, "Didn't you arrange someone to patrol the river bank?"

"There are patrols."

Mike explained: "After the incident happened, I contacted the patrol force as soon as possible and asked the patrol force to confirm the situation."

"Just reported that at least six patrol teams have disappeared."

"What's even more weird is that when the patrol team went to the incident site, they saw neither the abandoned boat nor the pontoon, nor even the patrol team's body."

"How did the enemy cross the river? Did they fly over?"

Faced with such a strange situation, Rogers couldn't help complaining, feeling flustered.

"do not know."

Seriously speaking, with the lessons learned from last time, this time, the coalition staff responded quickly enough.

In the previous episode, the three counties were almost destroyed before they realized it.

this time.

The Lord of Monroe County had just been attacked, and the staff immediately launched an investigation.

But still nothing.

"General, what should we do now?"

In the military situation room, the generals and the warlord Duke were also urgently awakened again.

"Can you determine the scale of the attack on the enemy?"

As the commander in chief of the coalition forces, any decision Rutgers makes is based on reliable intelligence.

"Not yet."

Embarrassment flashed across Mike's face, "However, judging from the footprints left at the scene, the scale must be quite large."

It happened suddenly.

The intelligence obtained by the staff is also very little.

"Order the main force stationed on the banks of the Huishui River to immediately dismantle their camp and return to Lark Town under the condition of ensuring safety." Facing a cloud of fog, Rogers could only choose a conservative approach.

The so-called security.

I was also worried that if the main force retreated hastily, the Chang'an army on the other side of the river would seize the opportunity.

A bad organization.

The so-called strategic retreat may turn into a big rout.

The generals were silent.

Rutgers issued such an order, obviously preparing for the withdrawal of Monroe County.

This is also no way.

The current situation is unclear, and preserving strength is the best policy.

"Let's inform the lords in Monroe County. It's really not possible. You can send the population and supplies to other territories urgently. Don't leave anything to Chang'an." Rogers added.

"It's so early, I'm afraid they haven't woken up yet and won't see the news." Mike reminded.

"Then send out messengers to notify one by one. On the main force side, you will notify yourself, and you must ensure the safety of the retreat." Rogers looked resolute.

"I'll go to the main force. Mike stays at the headquarters, which will be more effective."

Duke, the warlord, volunteered.

"Alright!"

Rutgers took a deep look at Duke, and at the same time ordered: "Send the Lak Town headquarters to immediately enter a state of war. Also, within half an hour, I will get detailed information on the enemy's attack."

The [-] coalition army was divided into three parts. The [-] main force was stationed on the banks of the Huishui River, threatening Chang'an City; the [-] reserve force was stationed around Lak Town.

The remaining [-] are patrol troops.

No matter what tricks Chang'an is playing this time, with [-] troops in hand, Rogers will not panic.

Just in case.

It is also possible to quickly escape from Monroe County by mail.

"Yes!"

Mike felt the heavy responsibility and deployed it himself.

.........

"Hey, want to send a letter? No way!"

Chang'an, however, took this into consideration early on, and dispatched a full hundred Feilian fighters to lurk around Lak Town in advance to intercept the messengers going out from Lak Town.

not long ago.

Tang Jing spent another 15000 killing points to summon 150 Feilian fighters in one go, ensuring that each division had a Feilian reconnaissance team directly under it.

The Guards Division even formed a full-fledged Feilian reconnaissance team.

responsible for this task.

It was the Fei Lian reconnaissance team led by Feng Shang who used the air superiority to kill the messengers one by one.

Gain time for the heavy cavalry as much as possible.

.........

Greywater River camp.

"General, the other side has moved!" A spy came to report.

Inside the camp.

In addition to Xue Rengui, the commander of the third division, Bai Chuan, the commander of the guard division, and Zhang Liao, the commander of the defense division.

The Chang'an army gathered by the Huishui River mainly included the Third Division, the Shenwu Brigade under the Guards Division, the Yingyang Brigade under the Fourth Division, and [-] soldiers from the Garrison Division.

There are a total of [-] elite teachers.

In Chang'an City, although the garrison division sent [-] soldiers to join the battle, the defense was not empty.

Because another [-] new recruits were added.

It was Qin Shuang who replaced the prisoners of war in the three counties of Dendun with the lord of Zunlong Kingdom one by one, and then transferred them all overnight to second-tier infantry, temporarily responsible for the defense of Chang'an City.

when necessary.

This army can even pull out of the city to help the front line.

"Go, go and see!"

Xue Rengui led the generals out of the camp and came to the high observation platform specially built on the bank of the river.

Raise the binoculars.

You can have a panoramic view of the enemy's movement across the river.

The main force of the 1 coalition army stationed on the banks of the Huishui River was divided into five groups: the front army, the middle army, the rear army, the left army, and the right army, each with [-] horses.

The front, middle and rear armies were deployed opposite the Huishuihe camp.

The Left Army and the Right Army, as the left and right wings, are arranged in a long snake formation along the Huishui River.

Always monitor every move on the other side.

After Warlord Duke arrived, the [-] coalition troops quickly formulated a retreat plan, which was divided into three steps——

In the first step, the middle and rear troops withdrew first.

In the second step, the front army, left army, and right army each withdrew half.

In the third step, the remaining half is finally evacuated.

The three armies cover alternately, that is——

After the central army and the rear army retreated ten miles, they formed formations on the spot and waited;

The second batch of withdrawn troops, after marching for [-] miles, also stood in formation;
And then the third batch.

Such an alternating cycle ensures that none of the three armies will be attacked.

When Xue Rengui led the generals to the watchtower, the enemy's central army and rear army were retreating in an orderly manner, while the front army, left army, and right army were all in a state of battle, ready to fight.

"Something, but not enough!"

"Command, all bowmen, all enter the predetermined battle positions!"

"Yes!"

Immediately a flag bearer waved the flag.

a time.

The Chang'an army of more than [-] people also seemed to wake up, and quickly formed an array and entered a fighting state.

Also divided into three sections.

On the left and right wings, the two brigades under the third division are responsible for monitoring the enemy forces on the opposite bank.

The Chinese army concentrated the Shenwu brigade under the Jinwei division, the Yingyang brigade under the fourth division, and the Xiaowei brigade, Baiyu brigade and Wuwei brigade under the third division.

There are four elite archer battalions, four elite crossbow battalions and four elite spear battalions under the garrison division.

From the very beginning.

Just put on an offensive formation.

Following Xue Rengui's order, the elite bow battalions of the standard infantry brigades and the crossbowmen of the garrison divisions quickly came to the front of the army formation.

He drew his bow and aimed at the enemy on the other side of the river.

As a tributary of the county, the Huishui River is less than 40 meters wide at its widest point, and only [-] meters wide at its narrowest point, where the Huishui River Bridge is located.

Therefore, the coalition forces stationed on the other side of the river have always been within the range of the archers.

At this moment.

Finally, the ferocious fangs were exposed.
