Chapter 112: Lose 6 towns

  Hedong Six Towns Allied Forces are still resisting Zhou Yafu's Three Towns soldiers and horses. Their strategy is to stick to it and consume Zhou Yafu's patience.

However, as time passed, they gradually couldn't hold back.

"Someone has taken over my town!"

A mayor suddenly yelled.

He has received the system prompt that his town was captured by Liu Sandao of Xiazhen, and his lord status has been taken away by the system.

When the    territory is occupied, he can still command his troops, but the morale of the soldiers will drop rapidly, and there will even be deserters.

The other five mayors looked at each other. It seemed that Zhou Yafu's purpose of surrounding them was to divide the troops and occupy other towns.

The Allied Forces of the Six Towns concentrated their forces in one town in order to better deal with Zhou Yafu, but after Zhou Yafu was supplied with troops, he already had the ability to divide forces.

"The other side will divide the troops and occupy the towns. We are too passive to continue like this. There is only one lone town left, and we can't keep it anyway. Let alone the grain harvest in a month, what if they cut off the wheat to supplement their rations? Isn't it just staring?"

"Without food, thousands of civilians and three thousand defenders in this town will starve to death."

"There is no way, we can only attack, see if we can defeat the Shishi generals on the opposite side. He divided his troops and occupy all places, this is our only chance to win. If we can defeat him, we might be able to capture a Shishi general!"

After discussion, the six mayors were forced to fight.

If you don’t fight again, this town will become a lone town, and it will definitely lose.

The town gate opened, and three thousand coalition forces assembled and faced Zhou Yafu's thousand people.

"What is their formation?"

Zhou Yafu frowned when he saw that the six town owners on the opposite side lined up in six squares.

This is also a common problem with temporary coalition forces.

The three thousand coalition forces could not wait for a decisive battle with Zhou Yafu, more than a dozen flags were deployed, and they commanded the coalition to launch an offensive.

The archers from both sides fired at each other, and the infantry advanced to fight for the land of Hedong in the southern part of Kaiyang County.

The infantry of the Xiliu battalion, wearing two armours, had high morale, formed a square formation with halberds, and launched a charge with a shield, and they could still maintain the formation.

Arrows fell on the shields and armors, and the Xiliu battalion soldiers killed several arrows, and the halberd pawns in the back immediately replaced them.

Xiliu Camp collided with the light infantry on the opposite side, and the two sides fought close to each other!

The strength of Tier 6 arms is displayed vividly at this moment. The neat lineup is advancing with great vigor, and soon there is a tendency to penetrate the opponent's formation!

The morale of the Allied Forces of the Six Towns is declining rapidly, and Zhou Yafu's characteristic of "ruling the army" can maintain morale for a long time. Under this situation, the six-town coalition forces are at stake.

Zhou Yafu stood on a temporary wooden tower, observing the situation on the entire battlefield.

He seemed to perceive the weakness of the opponent—the morale of one of the six-town coalition forces had fallen to the bottom, and that was the warrior of the mayor who had lost its territory.

"The light cavalry, round to the right, attack the second enemy on the right!"

"Yes!"

One hundred light cavalry sent by Chutian played a decisive role in this decisive battle. When the two sides fought fiercely, Zhou Yafu sent light cavalry to assault each other's low morale troops, and the Allied Forces of the Six Towns collapsed completely.

"The general trend is over, the crime of non-war..."

The six mayors saw that the small Xiliu Camp defeated their army and lost the courage to continue resisting.

This battle could not be fought. They lacked the ability to command thousands of people in battle. At this time, the combined command of the coalition forces was chaotic, and Zhou Yafu saw flaws everywhere.

If the opponent is also a celebrity player, perhaps he can also make Zhou Yafu a headache by relying on the number advantage.

Before the decisive battle, the six mayors had prepared the white flags. Found that Zhou Yafu could not be defeated, so the white flag was immediately raised to indicate surrender.

There is no deep hatred between the two sides, but the normal fighting between the lords, they believe that the other party will not execute them.

Fortunately, Chu Tian got Zhou Yafu, not Bai Qi, otherwise their fate would be hard to say.

Zhou Yafu accepted their surrender, and did not tie them up, but was put under house arrest and demanded that they surrender the ownership of the territory.

The six mayors were downcast, and their life as a lord was over, and even Kaiyang County could not go out, let alone compete in the Central Plains.

Most of the territories of the little lords were either destroyed in the previous Yellow Turban Rebellion or annexed by the high lords.

The lord who can really dominate a county is one in a million.

"If you lose to the third-ranked lord of the East Han District, it will not be ashamed to pass it out.

The six mayors comforted themselves.

Zhou Yafu asked, "Where is further east?"

After he captured the nine towns in Hedong, he still seemed dissatisfied.

Chutian's order was to capture the Hedong area of ​​the Yihe River, but did not specify where to stop. Hedong is still a large area.

"Further east is the Shuhe River. Without ships, it is difficult to continue to expand eastward. Crossing the Shuhe River, there is a hilly area with few people. To the east is the area of ​​Xihai County, which is a relatively narrow coastal area."

A town mayor clearly did his homework when selecting a site for the territory, and he was very clear about the nearby terrain.

Zhou Yafu fell into a brief silence.

He is now located in the plain between the Yi River and the Shu River, with rivers and hills to the east. It is indeed difficult to continue to expand eastward It seems that he can only expand here, and it takes time to digest this territory. . "

Zhou Yafu gave up the idea of ​​continuing to expand eastward, and the cost of continuing to expand was too high.

The six captive mayors looked at each other again, and the general in front of him seemed to be dissatisfied. This is the nine towns in Hedong, nine towns plus vassal villages, there are nearly 100,000 people.

The population of 100,000 is a huge population in the early stage.

"Send them to Xia Town, and wait for the lord's reply."

Zhou Yafu asked the soldiers of Xiliu Camp to **** the captives to Xiazhen, and he personally took the seat in Hedong Nine Towns.

Hedong Nine Towns are newly conquered territories, with very low public sentiment and unreliability.

Not only players may use the people's heart to make trouble, some townspeople may also rise up to resist Chutian's "brutal" rule.

The six mayors were defeated and surrendered, and the treatment of the mayors who surrendered without a fight was different.

The mayor who surrendered without a fight could even get credit for serving in the villages and towns under the jurisdiction of Xia Town, and most of the lords who were defeated and surrendered were detained for a period of time and demoted to civilians. As for the lord who caused a lot of losses to Xiazhen, the treatment may be even worse.

"Now the nine towns in Hedong are already in hand, adding up to twenty-one towns. Is it possible for twenty-one towns to shake a large city?"

Zhou Yafu compared the power of Chu Tian and Zang Ba, and shook his head slightly.

According to the conventional siege tactics, in "Lord", 21 towns are really not as useful as a large city. Unless it is twenty-one three-level towns.

The large city also has a dedicated teleportation array. Just this building can make countless lords jealous.

Zhou Yafu said to himself: "Master, how do you take down a large city?"
