His body was covered with dust and his face was stained with blood.
Panting, it was obvious that he had gone through a fierce battle.
"Family...Master, something serious has happened. A group of rebels have breached the city gate and are heading towards Xia Mansion."
The soldier took a breath and said in panic.
"What did you say? Tell me again?"
Xia Guangchuan grabbed the soldier by the collar and questioned him.
"A group of rebels are... heading towards Xia Mansion."
The soldier was completely panicked when he saw the master's anger, but he still repeated it tremblingly.
"A bunch of losers."
Xia Guangchuan was so angry that he kicked the soldier away and roared: "Check, check it for me. Within five minutes, I want to know all the information about this group of people."
Of course, while I was angry, I was also a little confused.
Where did the rebels come from?
Donglin covers a thousand miles and is within the Xia family's sphere of influence.
As for the several major cities adjacent to Donglin, he had contacted and managed them well when he first came to the throne. It was impossible for the families who controlled a city to attack him.
In this case, where did the rebels come from?
Could it be...
Suddenly thinking of a possibility, Xia Guangchuan's face became extremely ugly.
The guards did not dare to delay and quickly retreated.
Only Xia Guangchuan, who was full of concealment, was left behind.
He took a deep breath and looked towards the city: "Okay, I didn't expect you, an old guy, to have a secret..."
At this moment, the entire Donglin was in chaos.
The war was raging and gunshots were heard.
All the people were awakened from their sleep.
At this time of confusion, everyone was frightened and huddled at home, afraid to go out.
Xia Qiuchan's army is exchanging fire with Donglin's defenders.
The two sides fought hard to separate each other.
Bullets were flying like raindrops, and the sound of killing was everywhere.
The weapons held by both sides were mainly secondary firearms. Although they were single-shot, when the number of people increased, the intensive gunfire did not stop, and the scene was equally spectacular.
Although the Donglin defenders have a large number of troops, their morale has long been unstable and their combat effectiveness has declined.
Under the offensive of Xia Qiuchan's army, they retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses.
In addition, many Donglin generals were beheaded and there was a lack of commanders before the battle. This kind of defeat gradually worsened.
In the end, it turned into a situation of overwhelming defeat.
Many defenders saw the opponent's menacing approach and even turned around and ran away...
The 20,000 siege troops advanced with great success.
When they reached the back, many of the leaderless Donglin defenders raised their guns and surrendered.
In just one hour, most of Donglin City's territory had fallen under Xia Qiuchan's control.
Only a few strongholds are still resisting stubbornly, but according to the current situation, it is only a matter of time before they are broken...
In this process, the 20,000 siege troops only lost a mere 4,000 to 5,000 people.
And most of them were killed during the siege.
Twenty thousand versus eighty thousand, it's still a siege.
To be able to achieve this result can really be said to be a miracle.
Zheng Zhi and Xia Qiuchan were suspended in the sky.
The two of them did not participate in the battle, but watched the overall situation like chess players.
Zheng Zhi stood with his hands behind his hands, looking calm.
The scene before him was not much different from what he expected.
As for Xia Qiuchan, her initial surprise turned into a pleasant surprise.
She originally thought that her journey of revenge would be a bloody battle with many difficulties.
But now this process is progressing too smoothly.
It was so smooth that she felt a little unreal.
Thinking of this, she tilted her head slightly and glanced at the young man aside from the corner of her eyes.
She knew that all of this was brought to her by the young man beside her.
In terms of strength, being able to defeat a thousand people is unfathomable.
He is young and has great martial arts skills!
When it comes to resourcefulness, arranging troops, and being proficient in everything, there is nothing missing.
In strategizing, victory can be achieved thousands of miles away.
She had never seen such a monster.
"Let's go, it's our turn to take action."
Zheng Zhi smiled slightly.
As he looked, Xia Qiuchan's troops had begun to surround Xia Mansion.
I don’t know since when, she, the eldest lady of the Xia family, has learned to be obedient in front of Zheng Zhi...
Xia Mansion!
It was heavily fortified, with eight thousand gunmen standing ready.
They were tense and nervous.
Although we did not witness the fighting in the city, we can judge the trend of the war from the sounds of gunfire and rout.
Xia Guangchuan and dozens of senior members of the Xia family stood among the gunmen with a gloomy and solemn expression.
He had already found out the situation before.
He knew that his opponent was Xia Qiuchan.
Twenty thousand versus eighty thousand, the advantage was exhausted and the situation was beaten like this. This ending was a bit difficult for him to accept.
However, after all, Xia Guangchuan is also a person who can take the position of the head of the family. He is definitely not a fool. He can instantly guess that there is an expert commanding him.
And in his mind, a young figure lingered.
Finally, the sound of killing gradually approached.
All the Xia family gunners stared at each other and cocked their guns.
Finally, the siege army arrived.
"Tu tu tu tu..."
All the Xia family gunmen opened fire at once.
The overwhelming siege army encountered unprecedented resistance, and many soldiers at the front fell to the ground.
The battle between the two sides instantly became intense.
The gunmen who guard the Xia family are all carefully selected from the Donglin garrison, and they are all elite.
Moreover, the weapons they are equipped with are also the most advanced.
Although most of the Xia family's gunmen hold level two guns.
But among secondary firearms, it is undoubtedly top notch in terms of lethality, recoil, and accuracy.
There are hundreds of level three firearms!
Such equipment and firepower can only be described as terrifying.
In addition, there were many bunkers set up around Xia Mansion to defend against offensives, so they had every advantage.
Therefore, although the Xia family's gunmen were inferior to the siege army in terms of numbers, they gained the advantage once the battle started.
