4 years through the calendar.
At the beginning of the new year, the rainy season has completely ended. After the weather cleared for 4 days, the 38th Regiment of the 58th Brigade in Anning City also began to attack the north.
In just one day, the troops crossed Tranquility Lake and captured the city of Anoni in the north.
Then Panda's troops landed in Anoni City by boat, and began to maintain order in the city, liberating the 38th regiment's hands.
After Panda's army entered the city, the nobles of Anoni declared their allegiance to Emperor Caesar of Panda.
This is the case with nobles. Whoever swears is not an oath. As long as you keep your title and keep your territory, everything is easy to say.
War is a matter between you, the most senior nobles, and it is always a matter of trivial matters.
"Fairy Wood"
Don't implicate us in your affairs.
Most of the nobles in the Avalon region have this kind of thinking. The painful experiences of the nobles in the southwest region are vividly remembered, and they have been miserable by the empire and the Holy See.
The Demon King's army, aren't all humans with one head and two eyes, whoever is loyal is not loyal, so most of the small nobles in the Avalon region did not resist much.
Soldiers come, will descend.
The 38th regiment rested for a day after taking Anoni, and then continued to move towards Lawrence City to the north.
This is a large city on the south side of Avalon Lake, a city in the middle of the entire Avalon Grand Canal, and the whole city is quite prosperous.
However, facing the northward advance of the 38th Regiment, Lawrence's defender, the Marquis of Weimar, did not choose to surrender to Li Long.
The Weimar family, who has been loyal to the Avalon royal family for generations, the noble sense of honor and pride will not allow them to surrender to the enemy.
Standing at the top of the castle, although the 38th Regiment could not be seen, the news from the scouts who were released by Li Long was that the 38th Regiment was 3 kilometers away from Lawrence City.
According to the news brought back by the scouts, Li Long asked Lawrence to surrender. If he did not surrender within two days, the 38th Regiment would officially launch an attack on Lawrence City.
In fact, the two days were not for the surrender of Weimar, but for the evacuation of the civilians in Lawrence City.
The information given by the Time and Space Administration mentioned that prestigious nobles like Weimar could only choose to die in such a national war rather than surrender.
Therefore, the CPA still relies on the Air Force to distribute leaflets to Lawrence City, asking people in the city to surrender, and asking the civilians in the city to leave Lawrence City as soon as possible.
And because of the four years of CPA's combat style, it can be considered to be understood by the nobles in the north.
Especially the war in Ole City half a year ago made the nobles understand a truth.
This strange army of Huaxia seems to care about the casualties of civilians. During the war, they will do their best to avoid the war from affecting civilians.
This is very puzzled to the nobles of Aghanim. Aren't commoners just cannon fodder? Isn't common people supposed to be bullied and kneaded casually
Of course, the battle of Ole City also taught the nobles of Avalon a lesson. If there were civilians in the city, the Chinese offensive would not be so fierce.
Therefore, in the face of the large-scale attack from China, the first thing Weimar did was to declare the fortified walls and the wilderness, and drive all the civilians in the villages and towns near Lawrence into Lawrence City.
Use civilians as shields, so that the Chinese people will be a little timid when attacking Lawrence City.
Before that, Bob had delivered enough food for the military and civilians to eat and drink for 3 years for Lawrence City.
Weimar believed that Lawrence City would never fall as long as the civilians held on to it.
Weimar's response had to be said to have hit Huaxia's key point. The 38th regiment, 3 kilometers away, was furious in the headquarters, and he threw the electronic board with Lawrence City information in his hand heavily on the table, cursing and saying. : "Damn, these nobles are not good things.
Using civilians as meat shields, I can greet your ancestors for eight lifetimes! "
After scolding Weimar fiercely for a while, Li Long paced to the screen again, watching the footage of Lawrence City sent back by the drone.
Throughout the city, all adult males were recruited by Weimar.
Or send simple weapons, go up the city wall, and assist in defense.
Or send simple tools and be dispatched to various places in the city to repair fortifications.
Even outside Lawrence City, there are thousands of conscripted men holding hoes and starting to dig a moat for Lawrence City.
Li Long squinted his eyes: "Is this going to divert the water from the Avalon Grand Canal into the moat?"
Moreover, these civilians are excavating in almost three shifts, and the construction of the moat is also very fast.
Now the civilians in the entire Lawrence City cannot get out, and if Lawrence is attacked, it will cause huge civilian casualties.
If Lawrence's granary is directly destroyed, it will only speed up the siege progress of the 38th regiment, and the civilians will still not be released by Weimar.
In the offensive that started in the new year, Li Long also thought that the 38th regiment would be the sharp knife of the 58th brigade, and they would attack one city a day. As a result, as soon as they won the city of Anoni, they were blocked by the city of Lawrence behind.
The regiment staff's suggestion to Li Long: "If you want a quick solution, then execute the beheading operation.
Kill all the noble generals in the city, then under the pressure of our strong armed forces, those middle and low-level officers in the city will definitely surrender to our army. "
Li Long nodded, feeling that the regiment staff's proposal was correct, and if he wanted to take Lawrence City quickly, he could only rely on beheading.
Li Long scolded the garrison in Lane City, where the CPA just deployed some special forces.
The dark night team in Lane City also received a support request from the 38th regiment. Xia He held his helmet and said to the team members in front of him, "Brothers, we're on a mission!"
Wu Yin, the captain of the former Dark Night Squad, has been promoted to colonel and is now studying at a higher military academy in China.
As for the vacated position of captain, there was the former electronic hand, and the current Lieutenant Colonel Xia He took over.
In the dark night team, the position of the electronic hand was also handed over to the newcomer Long Yue, a 23-year-old young second lieutenant.
The team members all turned their attention to the female captain. Xia He's commanding ability was not inferior to Wu Yin's. As an electronic hand, her insight into the entire battlefield can be said to be stronger than anyone in the team.
Xia He turned over the map of Lawrence City, and then marked the moat outside, the granary inside, and the places where various noble generals lived on the electronic map.
Then he pointed to the 38th Regiment 3 kilometers away, and said: "The troops of the 58th Brigade are in trouble. The Marquis of Weimar, the defender of Lawrence City, played a hard game and cleared the field. All the nearby civilians were driven into the city, making the 58th Brigade's troops The troops could not let go of the attack.
Coupled with the large amount of food in the city, Lawrence estimates that he can hold on for about 3 years.
But we can't wait for so long. The Dark Night Squad will sneak into Lawrence City through the Avalon River tonight and behead all the noble generals.
As long as these stubborn noble generals are dead, then Lawrence City is not a problem. "
The 28-year-old heavy machine gunner Luo Xiaohei pulled the machine gun in his hand and raised his eyebrows at Xia He. This guy has suddenly developed a love for Xia He recently and is frantically showing his love to Xia He, who is 2 years older than him.
Now when it is time to officially show his masculinity, he is holding a machine gun and showing two biceps: "Sister He, look at Xiao Hei, I gave these nobles to biu one by one, hehe."
Xia He looked at Luo Xiaohei and smiled, and then told the team members: "Don't take it lightly, now we are no longer as unfamiliar to them as when we first came."
Saying that, Xia He raised the gun in his hand and said, "At least they will no longer call the things in our hands iron staff, and they will no longer regard our armor as iron monsters.
They are also learning about us at the same time as we are learning about the entire flat-earth world.
Weimar just saw that we would take care of civilians in war.
Therefore, in this action, Lawrence City is likely to take precautions, and everyone cheers up. "
"Yes!"
Then Xia He continued: "We will sneak into the Avalon Grand Canal at 3 a.m. tonight, and then use the cover of the river to escape the strict outermost defense of Lawrence and sneak into Lawrence City."
Three shifts of canals were dug outside of Lawrence City, and the only way to sneak in was to rely on the cover of the Avalon Grand Canal.
Xia He introduced the mission this time, and after arranging the tactics, he said, "Let's go, let's go, first go to the camp of the 38th regiment to rest until the early morning."
"Yes!"
