Chapter 60: Road to the North

There is a small town called Suances in the north of Suero, which is a must pass from Suero to the black wood pass in the north. This town is one day away from Heimu Pass, which is strategically important, and is a place to supply Hei Mu Pass. Normally, the materials arriving from the capital and Suero will be hoarded here. Once every half a month, the guard of Heimuguan will send a transportation team to the town to extract the materials.
Occupying this position is equivalent to blocking the neck of Heimuguan. If it takes less than a month, Heimuguan will not self-defeating. So a team of more than 500 people was stationed in the town.
A week ago, when Wang Jiyuan led the brigade to Suero, an independent camp led by Huang Zheng went straight to the north and raided the town.
Huang Zheng chose to approach the town at night and went to the camp outside the town where the Kingdom Army was stationed at midnight.
The independent battalion has no heavy weapons, only 24 mortars, but Huang Zheng used fire elemental shells to achieve the maximum attack effect.
The night attack started at two in the morning. At the moment when the soldiers were most sleepy, the sudden artillery bombardment completely destroyed the entire enemy camp.
Although not many enemies were directly killed by artillery, the elemental fire caused a fire in the barracks, not only burning the materials in the camp. Many soldiers were directly swallowed by the tongue of fire in their sleep, and then caused a large-scale riot in the camp.
The high-level knight Nolacio, who led this team, tried to gather the team, but was attacked by the dark elf ranger Evelyn and the mage class, and eventually died under the arrow of the dark elf.
Several remnants of the vain attempt to rush out of the camp, head-on hit the infantry company blocked outside. Under the volley of the air rifle, everything was wiped out.
In the early morning, when Huang Zheng and his troops rushed into the camp to clean up the mess, there were only more than a hundred soldiers left to wait for surrender.
In the next three or four days, Huang Zheng completely controlled Suances with guns and gold coins. The civilians of this era did not have much concept of the country. When he threw a golden axe of Huang Chengcheng, he quickly hired enough manpower to transform the town and built a fortification suitable for air rifle infantry.
On the fifth day, the second group of Shi Chen's follower Shi Hao arrived in this town, along with Luo Jie and Zhang Hong, and their task was to mix with Huang Zheng's team, and then went north to take down the black Muguan.
Coming outside the town, Xiao Chen found that the town was completely different from the town on the edge of the ground described in the report. Here, high walls and high walls have been erected, trenches have been dug up, and a sentry tower has been built.
Shi Hao said: "Huang Zheng's boy can move fast enough."
"Look there." Shi Hao looked with Xiao Chen's fingers. The two mages were flying in the air, building walls with magic. Between their wands waving, a pile of sand and mud piled on the side, they would be on their Under control, he flew to a half-built wall, piled on the wall, and then they used magic to solidify it into a solid stone.
auzw.com Shi Hao said: "The mage class brought out by Huang Zheng has specially selected mages who are good at earth magic. This time it can be useful." Shi Hao said, "This kind of step by step The method is actually very good. If our warfare is unfavorable, each of these towns can delay the rhythm of the enemy. "
"What kind of crow mouth are you, don't say bad luck." Zhang Hong said. This time most of the high-level mages have received combat missions. Although Zhang Hong, who has just advanced to the high-level, is unwilling to have 100,000 in his heart, he has to go with the army as a magic advisor.
"I hope not to hit such a tragic point." Xiao Chen said.
Shi Hao's mission time is very tight, so they arrived at the town at noon, and a combat meeting was held in the afternoon.
Huang Zheng reported the basic situation to Shi Hao: "According to the intelligence feedback from the Ministry of Intelligence, the guard of Heimuguan has about 2,000 people under the count of Count Olgas. He now knows that Suances was We control the news, but until now he has not taken any measures against us. "
"What is the reason for your judgment?" Shi Hao asked.
"I think there are two reasons. The first is that the army of the empire over Kuroki Pass has begun to gather. The army of the Earl Olgas is very limited, because since the king ’s collapse, the kingdom has not supplemented him. New troops. As far as we know, the empire plans to invest at least 30,000 troops here. Although Kuroki Pass is a natural danger, he must not dare to enlist the fifteen times the enemy. "
"Fifteen times? The gap is so big? Under such a gap in strength, is it possible for him to hold the shady barrier?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Dare not say how long he can stay. But as long as there is enough military food, I think it should be no problem to drag on for a month or two." Huang Zheng picked up the paper pen and used a few pens to draw the shape of a level, "Heimuguan's The location is very good, with high mountains on both sides, and the middle mountain pass is actually very narrow. That is to say, the defensive surface above this level is actually very small. It is said that every time more than 200 people are invested, it can prevent the entire city wall.
Moreover, this level is extremely high, and it can almost catch up with the twenty-story building. It is very difficult for ordinary soldiers to climb up, and there is no lack of magic suppression at this city gate, and the masters of the enemy can not use the means. many. "
"No wonder there were only such a few people at the beginning." Xiao Chen said.
"Secondly, Earl Olgas did not know our attitude. Our attack on Suances was very sudden. His intelligence ability is limited, and he may not know exactly what we want to do. But I guess it will only take a few days. At least, he will send someone to contact us, because the time has come to collect the supplies. According to the usual practice, the food in the Blackwood Pass will be enough to support him for another month, and he ca n’t afford it. "
Shi Hao said: "We can't afford the same. When I would rather attack the level, I stood on the hesitant kingdom people; I would not face a group of imperial people who occupy the level and are fierce."
Xiao Chen said: "This time I specially brought an old friend of Olgas, the Viscount Jossa of Suero City, the two of them have very good personal friendship. When necessary, Viscount Jossa can replace Let ’s go to Kuroki Pass and talk about the situation with our old friends. Please persuade him to give up resistance and join us.

"It's best to talk," Huang Zheng agreed. "Although we have guns, it will destroy the Blackwood Pass itself during a forcible attack. It would be best if we could fight without blood.
After discussion, the general plan has been finalized. Let Viscount Jossa contact him first. If unsuccessful, use force to break through. "
