Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 431 The Zhenxi Army is Running!
The fact that such a prominent family of the Ars family collapsed in just one night made the rest of the nobles sigh. A large sum of pensions, the posthumous titles of the dead Ars family members, and generous burials, but the rest of the nobles knew that the Ars family was over, and it was impossible to re-emerge. It doesn't really matter if there is or not.

The fate of the Ars family made many nobles who were originally opposed to the Lin family suddenly fearful of the Lin family. Now that the Lin family relies on its brave and capable army to rise up, it has become a foregone conclusion. They changed their attitudes one after another, and their original sympathy for the Ars family turned into insulting others, in order to please the Lin family.

Of course, there are still some diehards who are still plotting to bring down the Lin family, because they participated in the massacre of the Lin family back then. Now they are even more anxious and want to kill the Lin family, because once the Lin family Rise is their doom. With Lin Chuan's character of revenge, their consequences will not be much better than that of the Ars family.

Lin Chuan scoffed at these nobles who were bent on opposing him. Now he is not afraid of the counterattack of these nobles. With the support of the Ninth Prince Long Han, he does not need to do it himself. The Ninth Prince Long Han will also attack them in order to stabilize his rights. shot.

But now, in order to stabilize these nobles, the Ninth Prince Long Han still maintained enough tolerance. In order to appease their dissatisfaction, he directly revoked Lin Chuan's position as regiment commander and demoted him to the rank of regiment commander, and transferred Lin Chuan to the front line to serve as military commander. Redemption, in fact, Long Han is also helpless, afraid that Lin Chuan will conflict with them again, and then there will be internal strife, and he will not be able to fight this battle.

Lin Chuan, who was far away from those disgusting aristocrats, felt at ease, and took more than 2 Nanchuan soldiers under his command to fight in Ghana. Now the main force of Zhenxi Army has been trapped in the Orleans area, facing Lin Chuan The field troops under his command, the enemy troops stationed in these areas, would be defeated at the first touch. Lin Chuan lamented that the enemy is really weak, and it would be better to fight against a powerful opponent like the Zhenxi Army.

"General, the city has been cleared, and more than 1000 prisoners of war have been captured."

Less than an hour after Lin Chuan's army's attack on Ghana City ended, this important city in Gyeonggi Province had already fallen into the hands of Nanchuan Army. Seeing the prisoner of war kneeling on the ground, Lin Chuan shook his head helplessly.

"Qin Tian." Lin Chuan shouted to the back.

"General, what are your orders?" Qin Tian quickly ran from behind.

Qin Tian, ​​who was originally the head of the banner of the imperial guards, now serves as the deputy head of the banner under Lin Chuan's command, and is responsible for collecting and reorganizing prisoners of war.

"These prisoners of war are all handed over to you. Carefully screen them out and kill the ones who commit crimes. The rest will be incorporated into the army."

"Obey the general!" Qin Tian was so enthusiastic now that Lin Chuan even wondered if he had been beaten.

In fact, Qin Tian was captured by the Nanchuan Army. He thought he would be beheaded, but instead of killing him, Lin Chuan entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. Although Lin Chuan didn't feel anything, for Qin Tian, ​​his life was Lin Chuan That's right, this kind of kindness made Qin Tian give up his heart to Lin Chuan, so he worked extra hard when doing things.

The entire city of Ghana has changed hands several times during the chaos of the princes. Most of the houses in the neighborhood have been turned into ruins. Walking through the street, the exposed bones on both sides of the street can show how much the war has hurt the people. .

The surviving people in Ghana are one out of ten. Most of the men died in the war, and the rest are women and children who escaped by chance. Seeing their terrified eyes and hungry skinny bodies Body, Lin Chuan, the all-powerful soldier on the battlefield, had a sore nose.

"Mr. Xue, how much military rations do we still have, let's distribute some to these common people." Lin Chuan stopped on the street, unable to bear it.

Xue Wen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "General, most of our military rations have been distributed to the common people along the way, and our military rations are only enough for two meals."

There were too many refugees encountered along the way, and Lin Chuan couldn't bear to see the people starving and freezing, and then the military rations were distributed bit by bit like this. Xue Wen was also very helpless, and Lu Dong, the quartermaster, had already complained to him Many times, but he was irresistible in the face of his own general's orders.

"If you don't have military rations, kill the horses. I can't just watch them starve to death." Lin Chuan pointed at the women with skinny children and said incredulously.

"Okay, I'll go and order." Xue Wen nodded, turned and left.

When Lin Chuan arrived in Ghana City, faced with ruins and hungry people, he had to kill horses to feed his hunger, the same thing was happening in the Zhenxi military camp in Orleans.

The Zhenxi Army is sticking to the camp with a radius of five miles to the west of Orleans Town. More than [-] people are crowded in this small camp. Facing the continuous attacks of the Dynasty Army, the life of the Zhenxi Army is getting more and more difficult. .

The supply line of the Zhenxi Army has been completely cut off, and now more than [-] of them have fallen into a desperate situation. The military rations have implemented a centralized supply system, and the rations of each soldier are decreasing every day. Facing more and more people The army of the dynasty, the army of the nobles, and the camp of the Zhenxi Army were filled with a low sense of defeat.

Originally, Guan Rui, the commander of the Zhenxi Army, wanted to rely on the strong fortifications to fight the war of attrition and the war of time with the Dynasty Army, and wanted to drag down the large number of Dynasty Army through huge logistical pressure, but with the arrival of the noble army His strategy fell into a dilemma. The large amount of rations carried by the noble army greatly supplemented Long Han's troops, but the Zhenxi Army's own rations could not last.

"Kill [-] war horses, let the brothers have a full meal, and let's break through at night." The commander of the Zhenxi Army, Guan Rui, was in a heavy heart, and it was a helpless decision to make this decision.

Originally, he wanted to bring down the dynasty army through logistics, but the arrival of the noble army made his plan come to naught. Now with more and more noble troops, the commander of Zhenxi Army had to fight for the remaining more than [-] Zhenxi troops. The sergeant considered retreating, because they were short of food and they were about to be surrounded by the Ninth Prince Long Han, so he decided to break out of the encirclement until Wang Jing and the Sixth Prince Long Qing had a round before making any plans. No firewood.

The Zhenxi Army's breakout plan was carried out in secret. The dynasty army and noble army who were in charge of monitoring the Zhenxi Army camp did not notice it in advance. The nobles who made meritorious service in front of the emperor continued to attack the Zhenxi Army day and night, and had already broken through several lines of defense of the Zhenxi Army. However, they were careless and did not realize that this was just the initiative of the Zhenxi Army to shrink its troops. , to prepare for the breakout.

At nightfall on April 1th, Earl Bosta of the Dynasty launched a new round of attack on the camp of the Zhenxi Army. More than [-] noble soldiers rushed to the Zhenxi Army with howls. According to the usual practice, after this round of attack, only It was just a harassing feint before going to bed. As before, the noble army was beaten back by the Zhenxi army.

When the earl was about to order to go back to the camp to sleep, an accident happened at this moment. The Zhenxi army, which had been defending for these days, suddenly launched a counterattack, and caught the retreating noble army by surprise, causing heavy casualties. Even the earl himself died of Among the chaos.

The Zhenxi Army hacked along the breach of the rout of the noble army, and soon tore a huge gap in the encirclement. More than [-] Zhenxi Army came out in a row. When the Ninth Prince Long Han received the report, The troops of five banner regiments had already been defeated by the Zhenxi Army. In addition, it was night, and the entire area fell into chaos.
