Fifty-one flags

Wen Jie could feel the huge pressure brought by His Highness Qin's words. It is not the question of whether he can take over the Principality of Medan, but whether he can open up the Medan channel in the shortest time to win time and take the initiative to win the four city-states in one fell swoop. If too much time is spent in the battle to conquer Medan, once the mercenaries return east, the entire southern expedition plan will be trapped in a quagmire, especially the intelligence agencies have obtained the information that the Pasha people actively negotiated peace with the coalition forces.

"Your Highness, my subordinates insist that it is more appropriate to negotiate after taking Voda. Although we won a great victory in the Battle of Sulawesi, it was based on the situation where the coalition elephant soldiers were resolved by us with special means. Many people in the coalition still believe that our Western Xinjiang Army is not as powerful as imagined. If we can conquer Voda City with an iron fist and let the Peninsula people fully see the iron-blooded military power of our Western Xinjiang Army, then our invincible image of our Western Xinjiang Army will surely penetrate into the Peninsula people.

In his heart, whether it is our conquest of the four city-states in the later period or the confrontation with the Western Alliance of the Peninsula Alliance." After taking a deep breath, Wen Jie's dark face turned a little white. He knew that his words were enough to affect His Highness the King of Qin's judgment and decision, but he believed in his understanding of the Medan people and Maloda. Since His Highness asked about him, he must show his own opinions without reservation. As for whether His Highness adopts it, it is His Highness's business.

"Your Highness, my subordinates also agree with Wen Jie's opinion. Our army has already obtained a bridgehead in Sulawesi. It can be said that at least it has established a foothold on the peninsula. To completely make the peninsula surrender, political, economic and cultural infiltration and assimilation are important, but when showing the necessary military power, my subordinates think it is very necessary. This can shock some people with bad intentions and at the same time deepen the awe of the peninsula tribes for us. Sometimes awe are often more important than kindness, especially some weak nations. Many times you are kind to it, but it thinks that you have something to ask for it or be weak and bullied. The necessary iron-blooded means can often play many unexpected roles. Excessive warmth will only have side effects." The Director of Military Affairs, who has not spoken, was thought-provoking as soon as he opened his mouth, especially the last two sentences even hit the crux of Wufeng's hesitation.

This sentence can also be applied to the political level. In order to attract people's hearts, I have always shown my kind and generous side in front of the people. Although I have won the support of many ordinary lower-class people, it also brings many side effects, that is, those upper-class nobles of the nation and country sometimes have too high their own strength and ability, and even have the idea of ​​challenging their authority. It can be seen that many things often have pros and cons and cannot achieve both ways. However, this time it may be time to show their iron fist and bloody side.

Nodded heavily, and with the support of the two, Wufeng also made up his mind: "Well, since that's the case, let's wait for a while that day and give the other party a straightforward ultimatum. The terms of principle must be changed according to the conditions we have formulated. I will not see the other party again. I guess the other party will still be entangled. If you want to let him go, you might as well give him a false conspiracy. Here, order the 3rd Division of the Fourth Legion to keep three corpses stationed in the city of Jiana, and the two corpses will advance eastward with Gao Yue's militia and insert into the hinterland of Medan; order Mulige and Wenna to lead the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th Division of the Fourth Legion, and the 3rd Division of the First Legion to enter Medan immediately. Within two days of going south, you must take Vodal City for me at all costs. I will see the Golden Peng Banner hanging on the top of Vodal City, otherwise military law will be carried out!"

On November 16, 698, the mainland Gregorian calendar, the 110,000 troops of the five Western Army, who had been waiting impatiently at the junction of the Principal of Sulawesi and the Principal of Medan, were surging down like a torrent of opening the gate, carrying a storm and storm to the city of Voda, the important city in the northern Principal of Medan, which was leading the way.

Vodar City is located in the northern part of the Medan Basin in the northeast of the Indochina Peninsula. The Medan Basin is the core area of ​​the Principal of Medan. Vodar City and the capital Miallo City are located at the north and south ends of the Medan Basin. As an important town in the northern part of the Principal of Medan, Vodar is also the largest industrial and commercial center in the northern part of the Principal of Medan, and is also a famous coffee processing and distribution center. The Hongshan Mountain area on the north side of the basin produces strong and dark coffee flavor and long-lasting aroma. It is known as the treasure of the Eastern Continent, and is no less than the coffee produced in several major central mainland major producing areas that produce coffee. Vodar City has thus established its important position in the Principal of Medan and the eastern part of the Peninsula Alliance. However, due to its long-term peace and stability, the urban defense system here is in a formality and has not received necessary repairs and completeness for a long time. Although some urgent improvements were made after learning that the Western Xinjiang Army invaded the Peninsula Alliance, there is a huge gap compared to the urban fortresses that the Western Xinjiang Army once conquered.

Mulige stood in the forefront of the camp, looking at Vodar City in front of him with his waist. The city wall was slightly northeast to southwest. The north gate of the city was only seven meters high. The gate was made of thick wood wrapped in iron. The outer edge of the city wall was flat ground. There were some defensive facilities such as rolling wood began to be piled up above the city wall. Mulige saw it and was happy in his heart. The Medan people obviously did not have much preparation, and they were prepared against unprepared. He had already taken the lead in this battle. He had five divisions and 110,000 troops, and one of them was the Third Division of the First Legion under his old subordinates. Although the time was tight, his highness was determined to solve the obstacle in front of him in advance.

"Brother Wen, how about it? This is the first shield that the Medan people are resistant to perseverance. Your Highness has already ordered us to not attack, and we must take it firmly in one attack. There must be no drag on it. We must completely exert the military prestige and reputation of our Western Army. I am going to let two divisions go on the battlefield at the same time, launch an attack from the north and the west respectively. Those who enter the city first will reward you! Which two divisions will come first?"

Wen Na could hear the other party's heroic spirit from the other party's words, and his unyielding bloodiness in his heart was suddenly ignited by the other party's words. The other party obviously regarded his old subordinate, the Third Division of the First Legion, as the main force of the siege. It is also good that he would take this opportunity to let the other party see the true strength of the Burmese elite.

"Haha, Legion Commander, you seem to be a little biased. You are now the commander of the Fourth Legion, but you are no longer the commander of the Third Division of the First Legion. Do you have the heart to see that this kind of reputation of our Fourth Legion falls on other units? I suggest that our Fourth Legion First and Second Division will go first, the Fourth and Fifth Legion as the reserve team, and the Third Division of the First Legion will be tracked as the reserve team. I wonder what you will do at once, the Legion Commander?" Wenna smiled gently, seemed humble, but his words were merciless.

After being stunned, Mulige suddenly burst into laughter: "Brother Wen reminds you, how can our Fourth Legion descendants like this? Well, according to Brother Wen's wishes, the First and Second Division will rest for half an hour, and then launch a general attack after half an hour. I hope not to see me use the reserve team!"

When he said the last sentence, Mulige's eyes were straight at the two division commanders of the first and second divisions standing aside.

"Please rest assured, the first (second) division will never insult the mission!" The two division commanders' faces were already red, and their shiny eyes revealed not only infinite confidence, but also the passion of eagerness to fight.

"Very good. Lord Wen and I are here waiting for the two good news. His Highness Qin is also waiting for our army to send him the news. This battle is a great opportunity for two to show our fourth legion. We will also report the performance of our two people without reservation. It is a mule or a horse. Now it is time to take a walk!" He patted the two of them on the shoulders, Mulige's eyes were full of eager expectations: "His Highness Qin once asked me to convey to us all of the Fourth Legion. If there are any mistakes, they will be punished and if there are any merits, they will be rewarded. All of our performances are in the eyes of His Highness Qin. I hope everyone can seize the opportunity!"

The surging craze slapped on the walls of Voda City. The flying rain of arrows and the rolling wooden rocks pouring down could not stop the soldiers of the Fourth Legion who were determined to make achievements in this battle, from the division commander to ordinary privateers, everyone was watched from behind by His Highness the King of Qin looking forward to your performance. This sentence aroused endless fighting spirit and fighting spirit. The two division commanders, together with their respective deputy and chief of staff, divided more than 20,000 troops into three groups of their divisions. Under the cover of insufficient small long-range weapons, launched fierce attacks on both walls one after another.

The wailing and screaming of the soldiers had no effect on the officers who had been red-eyed. The residual limbs and blood and meat sauce were no different from mud and sand for the officers and soldiers. This place had become the cheapest flesh and blood slaughterhouse. Although Voda City is not an indestructible fortress and dangerous pass, it is indeed difficult to win such a big city in one day to make the soldiers of the two divisions. However, with its indomitable spirit and huge psychological advantages, the two divisions finally destroyed the originally not strong enough Medan defense system after launching the sixth wave of offensive. Xicheng and Beicheng fell together almost at the same time. The Golden Peng Banner floated high at the top of Voda City in less than a day and a half under the order of Li Wufeng.
