Chapter 160 Foreign Aid
An army of over one hundred thousand men hid behind more than ten thousand ordinary people.
Jun Qiulan used the same trick to copy tens of thousands of such pictures, and asked Huo Lan to send people to spread them to various places in Dasheng at an extremely fast speed.
This time Yan Jing was not there, so Jun Qiulan contacted Tang Te directly. Tang Te was still the most qualified assistant. He didn't ask anything and just arranged things.
There is a color-printed photo on the front, and an explanation of what the situation is like on the back.
Such a brutal general represents a brutal regime and is like a devil in the hearts of the people.
It not only affects the situation on the battlefield, but also whether the eldest prince can sit firmly on the throne. Jun Qiulan believes that the other princes will definitely add fuel to the fire.
But this will only cause public outcry and will not be of much help to their current war.
If Zheng Zian really wanted to use this trick to evacuate the people in front, he would not do this if he really cared about his reputation.
It's better than nothing.
The broadcast on the speakers never stopped, fully describing their ideology, policies, and treatment in the military.
Zheng Zian was unable to destroy the sound system, but he also issued an order that any soldier who dared to retreat would be killed on the spot.
This move can only serve as a delaying force.
Huo Lian: "In my opinion, this catapult has also been improved. Comrade Jun, you lead the soldiers in the city to meet the enemy head-on. I will lead 50,000 soldiers to circle around and attack them from behind, attacking them from both front and back. I will make sure they never return."
By then, the enemy's front and rear will be in chaos, and the people in front of the battle will have a chance to survive.
Huo Lian despised Zheng Zian's behavior in his heart, but they couldn't avoid fighting all the time, which would greatly affect morale.
Jun Qiulan knew that this plan was already a perfect solution, but the more than 10,000 innocent civilians in front of the battlefield might not be able to escape so easily.
All the civilians were tied together with hemp ropes. When the war broke out, even if they wanted to escape, if they couldn't break free from the hemp ropes on their feet, they would probably die in the chaos or be trampled to death.
Jun Qiulan really didn't want to see innocent people die tragically.
Such things should not happen in the new world they pursue.
Huo Lian knew what Jun Qiulan was thinking and offered some words of comfort: "Mercy on the battlefield is useless. We can only save as many as we can."
It is almost impossible to rescue all the more than 10,000 people safely.
Jun Qiulan was silent for a long time. "Give me a few more days and I'll think of a solution. Send a propaganda officer to calm the morale of our troops."
Tell them that these people are innocent.
What if among them is the family of one of their soldiers?
When the people in the city heard the news, they felt bad, as there must be someone they knew or was familiar with among them.
They want to build a new world and should not step on the bodies of innocent people.
But they did not expect that on the tenth day of the truce, Zheng Zian sent people to challenge them again.
If they do not respond to the call, a thousand people will be killed every day.
These more than 10,000 civilians can be killed in just over ten days. Will we be able to fight head-on by then?
But Jun Qiulan and Huo Lian both knew that Zheng Zian would continue to add people.
They also couldn't bear to see the people being slaughtered.
Huo Lian said, "This matter cannot wait any longer. Those civilians are on the battlefield, and Zheng Zian has only provided them with a small amount of food and water over the past ten days."
They were all huddled together, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating on the spot.
They could faintly smell the stench in the city.
If this continues, even if they are not massacred, some people will starve to death or die of disease.
The most frightening thing is that so many people get sick at the same time and cause an epidemic.
Jun Qiulan closed his eyes and said, "Let's follow General Huo's previous plan."
Huo Lian wanted to lead his troops to launch a surprise attack from the rear. There were many mountains here, and they could only cross the mountains and ridges to have a chance of survival. Jun Qiulan led his troops to fight head-on in the front.
But it would take time for these tens of thousands of soldiers to go around the rear. Even if they marched quickly, it would take three days.
Huo Lian had arranged 30,000 people to set off under the cover of night two days ago. At the very least, Jun Qiulan would have to delay the battle for a day and a night.
Jun Qiulan put on armor, took a loud speaker, and stood on the city wall.
"General Zheng, I have the late emperor's decree of succession. The one sitting on the dragon throne now is a traitor who is plotting to usurp the throne. We are all going to the capital to purge him..."
No matter what.
Delay time first.
Zheng Zian doesn't have high-tech loudspeakers, but he does have traditional methods.
Tens of thousands of people spread the word that the imperial edict in Jun Qiulan's hand was fake, and asked the people in the city to help them open the city gates and kill traitors like Jun Qiulan.
The morale of the army cannot be shaken, and neither will the soldiers behind Jun Qiulan.
They know what's going on in their minds. They are just temporarily using the pretext of clearing out the imperial court. They want to build a new world.
But the people in the city are not fully aware of this, and there will definitely be people who believe what Zheng Zian says.
For fear of causing civil unrest, Jun Qiulan's trained propaganda officers quickly went deep into the people without his orders to spread their ideas and appease the people in the city.
By the way, let's "intimidate" them again. If Zheng Zian really enters the city, the people in the city will suffer, especially the girls and women, who will probably suffer inhuman torture.
Look at how the other side can mobilize tens of thousands of civilians to fight against artillery fire on the front line. This kind of thing is inhumane, so don't believe their lies.
With the comfort of the propaganda officers, they also witnessed the discipline of the new army and naturally became biased.
When both sides challenge each other, they naturally cannot lose momentum.
In order to delay time, Jun Qiulan continued to argue with Zheng Zian.
He was alone, holding a big loudspeaker and connected to the speakers, and he cursed with the momentum of thousands of troops.
Yan Jing was also very anxious, so he handed over the task of repairing the tombs of his great-grandfather and great-grandmother to other members of the Yan family.
He had already rushed back with the people arranged by Huo Lan.
Fortunately, the place they went to before was not under Zheng Zian's control.
Otherwise it might be dangerous.
Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing have been in contact through walkie-talkies. The portable mobile solar energy can extend the battery life of the walkie-talkies.
He told Yan Jing not to worry.
But how could Yan Jing not be anxious?
In just one night, Yan Jing had already rushed back.
Fortunately, Yan Jing had Jun Qiulan's token in his hand and was accompanied by General Huo's personal soldiers, otherwise he would not have been able to enter the city.
Yan Jing quickly climbed up the city wall, and Jun Qiulan quickly stopped him behind.
"You're not wearing armor, so don't come forward."
Although the city walls should be out of the range of the enemy's arrows, we cannot be careless.
In case the opponent has a heavy bow and a good archer.
There is no need to elaborate on how those words like "shooting the arrow through the air at a hundred paces" came about.
Yan Jing was also obedient, he knew that the battlefield was no joke.
However, he was still inappropriately distracted by Jun Qiulan's appearance in silver armor.
This was something he had never seen before.
Everyone says Jun Qiulan is the most noble young man in the entertainment industry, not because he was born into a wealthy family, but because he has a noble temperament.
But for such a nobleman, everyone will subconsciously and naturally think that a nobleman should be elegant.
Even if he knew martial arts, it would have to be elegant swordsmanship.
But in front of Yan Jing, there was clearly a handsome young general.
Jun Qiulan felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, "Why are you staring at me? I'll take you back first. A fight is about to break out here."
He also used the walkie-talkie to contact Huo Lan. The first group who set out early have basically arrived. They are still on the way and are rushing forward.
Thanks to Huo Lian's rich combat experience, the 30,000 people who set out first also brought an artillery battalion.
At that time, the artillery battalions in the front and rear will launch an attack on the front together.
No matter what, it can disrupt the enemy's camp.
Yan Jing: "You have to send me back, but you also have to bring me back."
He gestured with the Truth in his hand, but the range of the pistol was not enough to hit the beast.
The range of a normal pistol is accurate within fifty meters, but it is difficult to shoot accurately beyond fifty meters.
What's more, the enemy was more than fifty meters away from them.
It was even more impossible to hit Zheng Zian in the center of the enemy camp.
But what about a distant truth?
He said, "To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. Get rid of that beast first and then carry out your plan."
Jun Qiulan opened his mouth and said, "But aren't these things illegal in your country? Aren't they prohibited from personal possession?"
Grandpa Yan felt that it was great that he could get a handful of truth.
Yan Jing: "Don't worry, Grandpa will find a way."
Jun Qiulan opened her mouth, but she really couldn't refuse Yan Jing's proposal.
It was handed over to the deputy general General Ruan on the battlefield.
That is Huo Lan's father-in-law.
"General, I have to be gone for about half an hour to an hour. Before then, challenge the front and do not attack impulsively. Contact General Huo on the intercom at any time."
General Ruan is not young anymore, at least not as a soldier, but his mind is clear.
"Comrade Jun, don't worry."
He had just heard the conversation between the two. It seemed that Mr. Yan with short hair could find a way to deal with Zheng Zian.
When two armies are fighting, no matter which side it is on, the death of the commander will have a huge impact on the war situation.
As long as Zheng Zian died and the enemy's morale collapsed, it would be much safer for them to implement their previous plan.
He also knew very well that ordinary soldiers had poor mobility and basically acted according to the general's orders.
Without the head coach, there will inevitably be chaos.
Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing hurried back to the modern era and drove directly back to the courtyard.
Along the way, Yan Jing drove while talking on the phone to his grandfather, telling him about the situation in ancient times.
Yan Huai was also furious when he heard this.
He had lived in ancient times, so he naturally understood the evil nature of those people.
They don't treat ordinary people as human beings at all.
As for Yan Jing's request to borrow the sniper rifle, Yan Huai made the decision: "Wait for me, I'll find a way."
Jun Qiulan listened to Grandpa Yan's firm tone and gained a new understanding of Grandpa Yan and the Yan Group.
He also curiously looked into Yan Jing's family's business in modern times, which was indeed remarkable.
There was once a news report that a research project of Yan Group was just released and had not yet been promoted among the public when it was directly requisitioned by the military.
However, this news is only spread on the Internet and its authenticity is unknown.
Now it seems that this may not be groundless speculation.
Thinking of this, Jun Qiulan asked.
Yan Jing smiled and said, "It's true. In fact, in addition to that technology, our family and the military also have other technical cooperation."
He has made a lot of contributions to the country's progress.
But those are all my grandfather’s connections, and he’s a low-key person, so not many people know about it.
A few minutes later, Grandpa Yan called again.
"Think of a way. Have Lanlan cover her face or put on makeup or something, so that no one can recognize her as him."
Yan Jing didn't understand why, but he let Jun Qiulan do it.
As for celebrities, their disguise skills are still very strong.
Jun Qiulan even learned some simple makeup techniques from Liu Yue.
There happened to be a set of makeup products from a previous film crew in Yan Jing's car, and Jun Qiulan used them directly.
He came back wearing armor. Fortunately, there is a film and television base in this place. Not only are there people wearing armor, but there are also many people dressed as Terracotta Warriors.
With makeup and covering up the lower half of his face, Yan Jing could hardly recognize him.
All the way to the courtyard.
Grandpa Yan was already waiting. When he first saw the man in armor, he didn't recognize that it was Jun Qiulan.
He was also very inappropriate, "Is this makeup or witchcraft?"
Yan Jing and Jun Qiulan couldn't help laughing.
In ancient times, wars were urgent and could not be delayed.
"Grandpa, has the issue with the wooden warehouse been resolved?"
Yan Huai looked at the time: "Wait a little longer."
After waiting for a while, a helicopter landed in front of the courtyard.
Two men came down, wearing military uniforms.
Yan Huai said rather embarrassedly, "I really can't lend you a sniper rifle, but I've borrowed a sniper for you. I'll take you there."
Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing were both shocked.
Is Grandpa Yan taking the initiative to confess his origins to the country?
Otherwise, how could he say that he took them there?
Jun Qiulan also knew in his heart that Grandpa Yan was also trying to protect his safety and background.
So whether Grandpa Yan said that he would take them there, or Jun Qiulan had to take them there.
That's just how it has to be said.
The sniper was also fully armed, with equipment all over his face, so you couldn't see what he looked like at all.
However, he was also confused when he came to carry out this mission.
The man was called Huo An. He received an order from his superior to kill someone, but he didn't know who to kill specifically. His superior told him to just go to the place and follow the instructions, and also asked him to make sure to turn on the recorder.
Unexpectedly, a residential building appeared.
Who is this going to kill?
Are there any violent criminals inside? Shouldn't the armed police be dispatched?
Special forces like them usually carry out special missions.
Time waits for no one, and the three of them, grandfather and grandson, quickly exchanged glances.
There were two people in total, but only one person needed to be brought over.
"I'll explain it to you when we get there." Yan Huai held Huo An's left hand and Jun Qiulan's right hand, and Jun Qiulan held Yan Jing's hand.
The four men disappeared on the spot, and the remaining one's goggles could hardly hide his shock.
Only when they arrived did Yan Huai explain.
"Just treat this mission as a peacekeeping mission abroad." Old man Yan Huai was also full of nonsense. "However, this country is an ancient country. Your superiors will explain it to you. Here, let the ancient young general explain the situation to you."
Jun Qiulan is naturally this little general.
He didn't waste any time. "The enemy is currently defending their front line with tens of thousands of innocent civilians, and we don't want to harm them. We have no choice but to stop. We've been here for almost ten days now. The enemy wants us to engage them head-on, or they'll start slaughtering the civilians."
This was the first time Huo An had encountered such a thing.
If it weren't for the order from his superior, he would have thought he had been poisoned by the mushrooms he ate.
Isn't this a little too magical?
Ancient times?
He is going to kill a general of the ancient enemy army?
Jun Qiulan knew he was still confused. "I don't know what to call you comrade. Please come up to the city wall with me, and you will know that what I said is true."
The title of "comrade" made him feel very disconnected.
Yan Jing also stood up and said, "Comrade, your superiors already know the identities and backgrounds of my grandfather and me. The war situation is urgent now and we can't waste any more time."
Huo An quickly recovered from his shock and spoke his first words of the day.
"Take me to see the situation first."
He glanced at the recorder on his chest; it was on.
Only when he walked out of the room did he feel the most real thing.
This is fucking ancient times.
Ancient soldiers were running everywhere.
Those who heated the oil carried stones and arrows to the city walls...
The war is almost imminent.
Jun Qiulan quickly took Yan Jing and Huo An to the city wall, and Grandpa Huo stayed in the room.
When you get older, you don't take risks.
"Comrade Jun, you're back." General Ruan was extremely anxious. "Then Zheng Zi'an really did attack the civilians."
Fortunately, there were archers in their own camp who killed the enemy soldiers who were attacking the civilians with butcher knives.
For the time being, the people have been brought down.
Huo An stood on the city wall, and this time he really felt it.
No matter which world or era we are in, the people are innocent during wars.
Attacking innocent civilians is a beastly act.
Huo An seemed to understand why these ancient people asked them for help.
In fact, he also realized that these soldiers were well-trained and had some of the feeling of their own army.
What is the origin of this old man?
Jun Qiulan didn't waste any more time, "Comrade, the enemy commander in golden armor is the enemy commander. He is ruthless and must not be allowed to stay."
Huo An nodded and started to draw his gun.
At such a distance, he brought a high-precision sniper rifle with him. It's a bit of a waste.
Jun Qiulan: "Comrade, please wait a moment. We need to wait for the order from General Huo."
General Huo? Huo An's eyes lit up. A member of the Huo family.
"General Huo is your commander?"
Jun Qiulan nodded, "He led his troops to go around the enemy's rear, and then we will attack from both sides."
Huo An nodded, and then saw Jun Qiulan take out a walkie-talkie.
Huo An: "..." Is this ancient times? Are they filming a movie?
He began to feel confused again.
"General Huo, we have a way to kill Zheng Zian. How long will it take for your troops to arrive?"
Huo Yan laughed heartily. "Alright, you've got a plan. We've set up an ambush ahead. We're just waiting for good news from you."
Jun Qiulan: "It was also Mr. Yan who helped us hire some external help."
Huo Lian thought of something and said, "Okay, no matter what, when this battle is won, this general will thank this brave warrior who came to help."
Ended the call.
Jun Qiulan quickly called out to General Ruan, "General Ruan, arrange for two teams of troops to go out from the east and west gates to support the people down there."
If a real war breaks out, the people below will probably be like headless flies.
There still needs to be a response.
General Ruan quickly made arrangements.
Jun Qiulan added, "After bringing them into the city, we will quarantine them for a period of time to prevent the spread of the disease."
General Ruan also hurried to make arrangements.
Huo Anxin thought, these people are quite professional.
Conditions in ancient times were limited, and it was not easy to think of these things.
The enemy began to challenge again.
The war drums are beating.
Jun Qiulan stopped talking nonsense.
Huo Lin's voice rang out from the intercom, "Launch the attack."
The advance force of 30,000 men fired the first shot from the rear.
Jun Qiulan: "Right now, please, comrade."
Huo An calmed down and pulled the trigger.
The enemy commander sat on a tall horse, and one could barely see his ferocious face under his armor.
There was a loud noise from the rear, and Zheng Zian instantly knew what was going on. Were their scouts blind? The enemy had already reached their rear, yet they were completely unaware.
He also knew in his heart that during this period of time, Jun Qiulan's side used some magical tools to repeatedly shout out some extremely treasonous ideas and policies.
For people like them, it is a heinous crime, but for people at the bottom, it may not be the case.
I'm afraid those scouts were the first group to be tempted.
He turned around and was about to order the massacre of the people in front, but before he could open his mouth, he could no longer speak.
The personal soldiers around him witnessed with their own eyes that a big hole suddenly appeared on their commander's head and his brain burst out.
The crowd began to riot.
Jun Qiulan saw Zheng Zian fall down with her own eyes and felt relieved.
If they don't deal with this person, even if they win this battle, there will be no shortage of troubles later.
Zheng Zian has too many shady tricks and is completely inhumane.
They can't fight so hard every time.
Again, their army does not have an advantage in numbers, nor does it have an advantage in logistics.
Their financial resources only support them to win the battle quickly and cannot prolong the war.
Otherwise, Dasheng’s logistics alone would have been enough to wear them down.
Jun Qiulan drew his sword and shouted, "Attack."
The gunpowder on the catapult was ignited and thrown into the enemy camp.
There was another round of chaos.
The people that General Ruan arranged to go out quickly moved to the front and distributed several daggers and short knives.
"Separate the ropes on your own and run towards the east and west gates. There are people there to meet you, and we will cover your retreat."
These more than 10,000 people were already terrified to the extreme.
Now they heard that someone rescued them, they still couldn't believe it.
Jun Qiulan picked up the loudspeaker on the city wall and shouted, "Comrades, you are saved, run!"
Now, someone finally took action.
They quickly untied the ropes around their feet and ran as fast as they could, even though they hadn't had a full meal for more than ten days.
Live, they want to live.
I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect there was still a chance to survive.
Run, run quickly.
The archers on the city wall were also covering their retreat.
Any enemy troops that chase you will be shot and killed immediately.
