Lin'an City, outside the south gate.

Zhang Yi inspected the position on horseback. The New Army, under the command of Chen Yiyi, had dug a trench about one meter deep. The excavated earth and rocks were piled in front to form an arc-shaped protective wall.

The soldiers stood in the trench, holding up their rifles, waiting for the enemy to attack.

An artillery piece was set up every fifty meters, and its black muzzle was pointed at the city gate.

"Brother Yi, it's very strange," Chen Yiyi said, "the enemy has been silent and allowed us to build positions."

"It's not surprising. The enemies were quarreling along the way. They were like a crazy hydra. No one wanted to listen to anyone else," Zhang Yi said with a smile. "Be prepared for battle. The situation will force them to make a choice. Very soon.

They will react soon."

Chen Yiyi smiled and nodded.

The enemy has been more than a beat slower, thus losing the initiative on the battlefield. However, we cannot be careless. Dogs will jump over the wall when they are anxious, let alone hundreds of thousands of troops.

Zhang Yi inspected the situation and was very satisfied. He told Chen Yiyi to hold on to his position until the enemy retreated.

"Please rest assured, Brother Yi, we will defend our position to the death, and the enemy will not even think of crossing the position!"

"Okay, Yi Yi, I believe you can do it!" Zhang Yi laughed heartily, and then said to Chen Yi Yi, "When Hangzhou Bay is blocked, the enemy will be defeated."

Chen Yiyi smiled knowingly.

Now is the time to buy time. After our steel warships arrive at Shanghai Port, they will replenish fuel, water and other logistics, and then blockade Hangzhou Bay.

The enemy is about to suffer a devastating disaster, but they are still kept in the dark.



Under the command of Zhang Yi, two generals, Niu Ben and Aser, led their troops and were stationed outside the north gate and west gate of Lin'an City respectively.

The east gate connects to Hangzhou Bay, and the enemy has a strong force and is difficult to cut off. There is no need to wait for the Chinese fleet to attack.

Xiao Liu, Xiao Long, Xiao Han, Shi Gandang and others stayed with Zhang Yi and set up a camp near the south gate to provide support at any time according to the situation.

The wolf cavalry led by Niu Ben and the prairie cavalry led by Aser ran back and forth outside the city, creating the illusion of a large number of people.

The purpose is to allow the enemy to attack from the south gate. Our firepower is concentrated outside the south gate and we can kill a large number of enemies.

The night was uneventful, but a tense atmosphere enveloped the city and beyond.

This is a battle related to the fate of China.

"Will Marshal Zhu be able to arrive in Lin'an tomorrow?" Xiao Liu asked worriedly.

"They still have to deal with the enemies on the front line of Huangshan. However, I want to mobilize the two armies of Li Changzhi and Vajim to rush to Lin'an City tomorrow." Zhang Yi said.

"This arrangement is appropriate. I will send a liaison officer to convey Brother Yi's order." Xiaolong said.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. We still have 30,000 new troops and 8,000 iron troops in our hands. With this strong reserve team, we can make up for any leaks at any time." Xiao Han said with a smile.

"Of course I'm relieved, but I'm still very nervous," Xiaoliu said, covering her pounding heart. "The enemy's force is twice ours right now. We must persist until reinforcements arrive, and we must persist until the Chinese fleet attacks."

hour!"

Not being nervous is a lie.

This is an international war. Zhang Yijun faces the six-nation coalition forces, plus the army of Little China.

This is also the first modern war in the wasteland world. Although the enemy's guns and artillery are backward, their lethality is much greater than that of catapults and arrows.

"I think Little China was forced to participate in the war under the coercion of the six countries, and they will not try their best." Zhang Yi expressed his judgment.

"That's right, Brother Yi," Xiaolong affirmed, "If Little China works hard, reinforcements from all over the country will gather in Lin'an, but according to intelligence, Little China has not issued a mobilization order."

"This is a good thing. It shows that they don't want to be traitors wholeheartedly. They just want to resist the brother's unification cause." Xiaoliu said.

"Haha, no one can stop us. People stand in the way of killers and ghosts stand in the way of killers!" Shi Gandang said.

"Little Fatty," Zhang Yi suddenly called him by his nickname, patted Shi Gandang on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "When you encounter foreign devils, you kill them freely, but when you encounter people from Little China, you have to take it easy. Xiaolong is right.

Yes, Little China is in an embarrassing situation. If you pull it, you will be one of your own, if you chop it, you will be the sworn enemy!"

"Well, Yi Ge, let's help them out then!" Shi Gandang said with a naive smile.

Everyone nodded and laughed.



The man does not take off his armour, the horse does not take off his saddle, and it is a tense night.

In the early morning of the next day, artillery roared at the top of Lin'an City.

Zhang Yi and others stood on a hill in the distance to observe. Sure enough, the enemy's main attack direction was outside the south gate.

Countless projectiles hit our army's position, and the firepower was very fierce.

Our soldiers were squatting in the trenches, safe and sound.

"The trench is really good. It protects our soldiers. Each person is equipped with an engineer shovel. This is a great invention of Yige! It turns out that I didn't think it was of much use, hahaha!" Xiaoliu said happily.

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, this was not his invention, but he knew that on the battlefield with hot weapons, the importance of trenches was unparalleled.

Therefore, he listed digging trenches as one of the essential skills for the new army, and specially designed a portable engineer shovel for individual soldiers. When the bullets were exhausted, the soldiers could fight with the engineer shovel, which was also a murderous weapon.

Of course, this is the last option. According to formal training, when engaging in hand-to-hand combat, the bayonet equipped on the rifle plays a huge role.

The training and equipment of the new army are prepared in accordance with modern warfare.

Today I will show off my talents.

Under the command of Chen Yiyi, our army's artillery fire began to return fire.

The two sides launched a fierce exchange of fire.

Chen was desperate to fight all the way. He galloped across the battlefield on horseback, holding a flag and a sword to boost morale. Cannonballs exploded beside him, soil splashed onto his body, and the air wave almost overturned the horse to the ground.

.

But every time, Chen Yiyi was able to break out of the smoke and continue to gallop.

"What a great general!" Xiaoliu marveled in admiration and clasped his hands together to pray for him.

Zhang Yi saw it clearly and was very pleased. Chen Yiyi was not only brave, but also had keen judgment. He knew where the shells would land and always avoided them in advance without any danger.

Fortunately, the enemy's artillery shells have limited power.

In terms of range, power and accuracy, our army's artillery has advantages in every aspect.

Half an hour later, the city gates were blown to pieces, the towers were blown down, and the enemy soldiers were bloody and bloody. What was even worse was that the artillery was taken out one after another, causing heavy losses.

Seeing that the artillery battle was suffering, the enemy changed their tactics and sent out cavalry to charge.

Soldiers from the Maurya Dynasty, wearing exaggerated red and white ornaments on their battle helmets, riding horses covered in red cloth, holding spears, and charging towards our trenches with strange screams.

This is the weakest unit in the Six-Nation Alliance, and it is used as cannon fodder to carve out a bloody path.

They don't know what's waiting for them...
