From Soldier To Emperor

Chapter 224: Fill the pit

Long Letian now understands that no one can rely on this war, he can only rely on himself!

Fortunately, An Lushan didn't mean to push the Long Family to death—the Long Family was gone, wouldn't it be missing a cannon fodder barrier that had a grudge against Richard?

Therefore, the land of the Long Family was very generous, so that the Long Family had the capital to compete with Richard!

If there is only one Xizhou, no matter how "optimistic" Long Letian is, he will not smash with Richard...

Xizhou City not only concentrated all the elites of the Long Family Army, but also the entire Xizhou Youth Group by the Long Family, and mobilized a large number of ordinary civilian youth in Xizhou City, forming tens of thousands of defenders.

These people can't help but provide a lot of labor for the fortifications of the city, and can also go to the front line to help the soldiers throw stones as cannon fodder during the battle...

Many Min Yong were even given a cheap inferior wooden spear by the Long Family, and they were pulled to the city’s head for defense together...

In addition, the food in Xizhou City can still be eaten for a year and a half, and I am not afraid of Richard's siege. For a year and a half, the Dragon family members led by Long Batian are enough to pull up a local armed group for training. , Support Xizhou to relieve the siege.

At that time, it is very likely that Richard will fall into the ocean of people's war.

Of course, these are all Long Letian's most optimistic ideas. First of all, he has to face a problem-how to hold Xizhou City.

At the moment when Richard's army approached the city, Long Letian knew that Richard would not slowly besiege the city and consume him...

What Long Letian didn’t know was that the Ming army looked beautiful, but behind it was a poor government running back and forth on the brink of a deficit. If more than 100,000 troops besiege the city away from the Western Regions for a year or a half, they don’t need Long’s reinforcements to arrive. , Richard’s army will eat itself first...

Therefore, Richard would rather die a large number of people than wait slowly and besieged the city.

Richard now has a basic plate that can fill more than 20,000 soldiers in the Western Regions in a month. He is really not afraid of anyone who is desperate.

Without this confidence, Richard would not take the initiative to attack Anlu Mountain and take part of the pressure of the green skin to go south for Anlu Mountain...

Although the equipment and combat effectiveness of the Western Region Infantry Panels of the Empire Age are very average, they have inherited the glorious tradition of systematic soldiers not fearing death, and they are definitely sufficient for attacking the fortified city.

However, it was too slow to mobilize the Western Region infantry from the capital of Qiuci. Richard did not plan to throw all the Western Region infantry under Xizhou City at one time. Richard felt that it was time for the auxiliary army that he had raised for several years to use his blood to be loyal.

In the eyes of Richard, people who are not from my race must have different hearts. Ninety percent of the auxiliary army is occupied by the Semu people, and the remaining 10% are the original prisoners of war who survived by chance. The proportion of Han people is not even 1%. To!

This is also the reason why Zhao Li, who is a Han Chinese, has made steady progress in the auxiliary army.

Zhao Li's ability to fight is very average, and he is afraid of death on the battlefield. He always lets the people below charge forward and stay behind. As long as the front collapses, he is guaranteed to run first...

This is also the reason why Zhao Li can survive as a commander in the auxiliary army.

Such an officer, if he were not for his Han identity, would never be promoted to a high-ranking officer in the auxiliary army-a commander.

This is already the first person under the general general in the auxiliary army, and the general general in the auxiliary army has always been not promoted from the auxiliary army, but directly transferred from the field army to the middle-level officer to ensure the auxiliary army’s 'Political correctness'.

Therefore, if Zhao Li does not establish a meritorious service, or if the nature of the auxiliary army does not undergo major changes, basically the command and envoy will have come to an end.

Not only Zhao Li, but all the pure Hans in the auxiliary army, who can live the worst until now, is also a mid- to high-ranking officer. The commander in the auxiliary army is even more of a Han Chinese.

These Han Chinese were all surrendered prisoners of war who had served the Turfans. They were punished for serving their lives to foreign races and were incorporated into the auxiliary army of the cannon fodder nature at that time.

After some battlefield elimination, along with Richard's unification of the Western Regions, the remaining Han Chinese regained their identity as the Han people under the government's intentional political guidance, and naturally, they also became a high-ranking officer group in the auxiliary army one after another.

Zhao Li still didn't know that his auxiliary army had been on the reserve blacklist and had become a priority target for Richard to consume.

Of course, Richard is not targeting him personally, but the ‘sexy nature’ of the auxiliary army. Who would call him an extreme Han nationalist?

A single extreme Han nationalist is not terrible, but if this extreme Han nationalist becomes a king and has a plug-in, it will be terrible!

In the history of the earth, Genghis Khan and his descendants can definitely be regarded as ultra-nationalists. This is not to say that their thinking, but that their actions are no different from ultra-nationalists.

If you divide people into several levels, you will massacre the foreign cities at every turn. If this is not an ultra-nationalist, then those ultra-nationalists in later generations can be washed away...

Of course ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Another mode of interpretation by ultra-nationalists is that they have made outstanding contributions to the national integration...

This is the victor’s political propaganda to himself, and it is naturally fine...

After all, national assimilation has always meant slaughter and genocide. Otherwise, why would other nationalities make you assimilate?

It is pure nonsense to not confess the other party's obedience, ethnic integration.

Zhao Li didn't realize Richard's intentions. He only knew that he now had 8,000 cannon fodder in his hand, which could reduce the casualties of his own soldiers very well.

In the drums of the offensive, a large number of numb and frightened civilians filled the pit with their lives. They had no armor or weapons, not even a shield. All they could rely on was their two legs and their own strength!

In order to survive, the ordinary people who filled the pit naturally used the strength of suckling to play high-speed sprint sprints. Fortunately, people in this world suffer hardships and stand hard work every day. Their physique is no worse than that of urban white-collar workers who went to the gym every day by Richard's previous life. There is still a surplus. There are not many people who are shot and killed by arrows from the city under high-speed movement.

There is a sharpshooter level in the Long Family Army, but it is a pity that the sharpshooter is very small for the entire battle. Most Long Family archers still look like a monk halfway.

It is naturally not a problem to let them mass projectile surface damage, and the arm strength is also very adaptable to the rhythm of continuous bowing because of long-term exercise, but if you accurately shoot the civilians who are running back and forth in the city to fill the pit, it will be a bit difficult...

The vast majority of Longjiajun archers who defend the city shoot out at a certain direction, and cannot shoot accurately at moving targets at all.

Because of this, the civilian casualties of the Semu people who filled the pit were far less than Zhao Li expected!
