Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 175 The Light Army Advances
In Keluo City, the governor of Jiuyuan Province, Najialuo, temporarily moved to the camp. The guards in strong and sharp guards stood at three steps, one post at five steps, and one sentry post at five steps. The entire camp was heavily guarded.

In the huge war room, the staff members are working nervously on the map, the messengers with the red flags on their backs are hurrying, and the mud on the boots of the messengers from the front line is splashed on the precious carpet.

Governor Naga Luo stared at the combat map with red eyes, and tapped his fingers on the nanmu desk, which seemed particularly abrupt in the noisy combat room.

On the map, the three black arrows symbolizing the Nanchuan Army have been deeply embedded in the hinterland of Jiuyuan Province, and they are still going deeper.

On the sand table map, the staff is pulling down the red flags of each city and replacing them with black flags. The atmosphere in the combat room is dull and depressing.

The Nanchuan army was divided into three groups, all the way advancing triumphantly, with such momentum that they had advanced more than 800 miles in just one week, and it was only a few days away from the provincial capital.

The dynasty garrison troops stationed in various cities retreated one after another, like paper. Sometimes the Nanchuan army was still hundreds of miles away, and suddenly someone shouted: "The rebels are coming!"

The garrison of the entire city collapsed, and people fled one after another. On the provincial road leading to the north, thousands of residents fled their homes with their families.

The gray-haired old men staggered forward supporting each other, their cloudy eyes were full of despair, and a father holding a child shouted his wife's name loudly among the chaotic crowd...

The soldiers of the disintegrated garrison had thrown away their weapons and armor, and the dragon flag was thrown into the ditch beside the road, and they retreated numbly wearing red shirts.

The shepherd who was driving the cattle and sheep watched desperately as his cattle and sheep were scattered by the fleeing crowd, and cried out. The wounded soldiers groaned in pain and crawled forward with difficulty.

The Nanchuan army from the south has been demonized. They are described as man-eating demons. They have three heads and six arms. They will burn, kill and loot every city they come to...

In order not to be eaten by demons, tens of thousands of residents abandoned their family property and fled in haste. The roads in the entire province were blocked. Looking down from the sky, it looked like a winding dragon.

"Your Excellency, Kuluo City has just fallen, and the commander of No. 15 people died in battle." The messenger's voice was a little choked up.

Governor Nagaro nodded, with a low voice in his throat: "I see."

"My lord, Roeblin has fallen, and the rebels on the left are less than [-] miles away from our city of Kero." The messenger who reported the message panicked.

"My lord, the central rebels have defeated General Yingtan's troops, and General Yingtan is retreating—"

The bad news came one after another. Governor Najialuo sat on his nanmu chair with a blank expression on his face, and he didn't bother to say the last word.

Until dusk, Nagaro raised his tired face and asked, "What time is it now?"

As the governor, he didn't care about the frontline battles, but asked what time it was. Although the staff were deeply disappointed and contemptuous, someone told him that it would be dark in two hours.

"Where are the troops led by Zhang Haotian?" Governor Najialuo continued to ask.

Faced with the governor's inquiry, the staff members were at a loss, and then frantically rummaged through the pile of defeated letters.

"I found it, I found it!" The staff happily found the report from General Zhang Haotian from among a large number of frontline defeat reports, and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past few days, the front line has been defeated one after another, and the rebel army is advancing rapidly. The governor is in a bad mood, and yesterday he ordered the execution of an old servant who broke a teacup.

The aide said: "General Zhang reported that the [-]st Cavalry Regiment has arrived at the designated location."

Hearing this, the staff officers and officers uttered a voice of surprise, what is a designated location?Could it be that……

They turned their heads to Governor Najialuo who was sitting there calmly. Najialuo's face was still half tired at the moment, his eyes burst out, his face was rosy, and he seemed to be a different person.

Governor Najialuo stood up and said loudly: "Order to the Fifth Banner Battalion, Eighth Banner Battalion, No.13 Banner Battalion, and No.30 First Banner Battalion. You can act now."

"Ah?" The staff and officers all opened their mouths, and were stunned. Aren't these troops already defeated at the front line?

Governor Nagaro announced calmly: "The war has just begun—"

Soon someone reacted and rushed to issue an order. As Governor Najialuo recovered, the entire war room was swept away from the previous gloomy atmosphere, and the entire staff team resumed efficient far-distance rotation again. They knew that they did not Defeated, all this is just a game.

In Keluo City in the central part of Jiuyuan Province, the Ye Feiqi Regiment of the Nanchuan Army has just occupied here.

"Send a good news to the General, we have successfully captured Keluo City, and we will be able to reach Jiuyuan City, the capital of the province tomorrow." Ye Fei strode into the city hall of Keluo City in high spirits.

The city hall has been occupied by Nanchuan soldiers in hard-wearing clothes, and the soldiers' knife edges are still dripping with blood.

As a left-wing offensive force, Ye Fei's Second Banner Regiment made rapid progress. They took down five cities in three days and defeated the dynasty's defense forces.

As a commander, Ye Fei had never fought such a straightforward battle. The enemy was too weak, and he took down the city of Keluo with a population of [-] with almost no effort.

"Sir, there is no food in the treasury—" the quartermaster of the Banner Regiment hurried over.

Ye Fei frowned: "Are you sure there is no food?"

The quartermaster nodded and said, "Just like the previous city, there is not a grain of grain in the treasury."

Sergeant Major Li Ke sneered: "This Dynasty army is not good at fighting. I didn't expect to retreat quickly, and took away all the food."

The new Chief of Staff of the Banner Corps showed concern and said, "Could it be that the enemy army fortified the wall and cleared the field?"

Ye Fei laughed and concluded: "I guess the refugees ransacked the treasury, and the dynasty's army was defeated. How can there be time to fortify the wall and clear the country?"

"How about this, the Third Banner Battalion went to the surrounding villages and towns to find food, go back quickly, we have to continue the attack tomorrow! If you come back late, you will not have any part in the war."

All the officers around laughed, but the battalion commander of the Third Banner had a bitter face and was ordered to find food.

Almost all the residents of Keluo City have fled. There are countless jars and pots thrown away on the street. The entire street is empty except for the patrol team of the Nanchuan Army.

Because the Ye Feiqi regiment advanced so fast, it was two full days away from Linchuan's main force on the middle road.

On March [-]st, when Lin Chuan received the good news that Ye Fei captured Keluo City, he was not happy because of the good news. Instead, he hurried to the map and looked at the black arrow that had been deeply embedded in the provincial mansion. Full of worry.

Immediately, the cavalry with the black flag on their backs rushed out from Commander Lin Chuan and rushed towards Keluo City.

The dreadful retreat of the Dynasty Army has attracted Lin Chuan's attention, which is too unreasonable. For two consecutive days, they saw not a single enemy army nor a single enemy except for the dilapidated city. Residents, between heaven and earth, there is a dead silence.
