Chapter 709: Trench

Remember this site in one second 【】

"Instructor Carter, this is truly an admirable tactic; the soldiers of Yan Wang are clearly frightened."

Wang Xie lightly shook the paper fan in his hand, looking toward this Sam Country officer who had arrived in Yangcheng five days ago.

The fall of Peng City was another heavy blow for the Shizu.

It made their troops appear like trash before the soldiers of Yan Wang.

The soldiers kept deserting on the road to Yangcheng.

The private soldiers of the Rich Clan, in particular, ran away the most.

Along the way, the Heads of the Family of the three great Shizu were all taciturn.

They felt pessimistic about whether they could hold out until the day the Eastern Land Alliance was established.

But just at this moment, a Merchant Ship crossed the river and arrived.

Three Eastern Japanese and two Sam Countrymen arrived here.

One of the Sam Countrymen called himself Carter, and the other seemed to be his subordinate.

Coming here this time, he was responsible for acting as a Military Instructor, in charge of guiding them in battle.

After understanding the current war situation, Carter ordered them to dig a Trench.

And he introduced to them how to use a Trench to delay the enemy's offensive.

"In the Western Lands, this is a tactic every officer must master." Carter put away his Telescope.

Due to concerns that the Shizu of the North Territory of Da Song were collapsing too rapidly.

After discussions between the Shogunate and the Sam Country Consul, he was required to take a Merchant Ship to arrive in Wu first, then head north, and then arrive in the north of Da Song.

To assist the Shizu Army of Da Song in resisting the offensive of Yan Wang.

After all, they still needed time to discuss the specific matters of the Eastern Land Alliance.

After he finished speaking, the Eastern Japanese beside him translated.

"Is that so? That is truly enviable." Wang Xie chatted with Carter, one sentence at a time.

From time to time, he looked at the Telescope in his hand.

This object, which was like a thousand-mile eye, shocked him greatly.

It was just that Carter only let him experience it for a moment before never letting him touch it again.

Inside the city, in an exquisite and beautiful residence.

Xie Duan and the other two no longer had the dejection they felt after fleeing to Yangcheng.

They sat together with Sato Masahisa, drinking tea, chatting, and laughing, in high spirits.

"It is just that this time, it will wrong your Dongying." Sipping a mouthful of tea, Han Zheng looked toward Sato Masahisa.

According to the Eastern Japanese who arrived, during this period, the Sam Countrymen acted as intermediaries and went to Lincheng in Wu to discuss the matter of the Eastern Land Alliance with the Liang Family.

The Sam Countrymen guaranteed to the Liang Family that Britain would continue to trade with the Liang Family and would not provoke a war with the Liang Family because of the trade deficit.

However, regarding this point, it still required the British to formally sign a contract with Wu.

As for Dongying, Wu demanded North Yi Prefecture from Dongying to test their sincerity.

This condition had already been sent back to the Dongying Shogunate.

Whether the Shogunate would agree would be known within the next half month.

If both Dongying and Britain satisfied the conditions of Wu, Wu would agree to join the Eastern Land Alliance.

At the same time, they would help the Xie Family hold Jiujiang and prevent Yan Wang from continuing to move south.

Sato Masahisa gave a bitter smile; Dongying would definitely agree to this condition.

Because the Eastern Japanese who arrived in Yangcheng had told him one thing in private.

The army of Yan Wang had captured Ryukyu.

With Ryukyu fallen, Yi Prefecture would naturally not be safe either.

It would be better to hand over the north of Yi Prefecture to Wu.

In this way, it could also incite conflict between Wu and Yan Wang.

After all, once Yan Wang took Ryukyu, his next step would definitely be to take the territory of Yi Prefecture occupied by Dongying.

However, he could not say this, but instead said: "In order to stop this evil Yan Wang, paying a little price is worth it."

"Righteousness, truly righteousness." Han Zheng cupped his hands, his expression admiring.

Wang Zi'an and Xie Duan also began to flatter him.

Some time ago, they still had no confidence in this Eastern Land Alliance.

But ever since Carter taught them to dig a Trench and deploy the battlefield, their last shred of doubt had vanished.

Because it was not just Dongying; the Westerners had truly intervened as well.

Next, they only needed to wait for the signing of the contract.

Outside the city.

After observing for a while, Chang Wei put away his Telescope.

Lv Chang stared at the city wall for a while and cursed: "That monster on the city wall, could it be the Westerner that His Highness spoke of?"

"It must be; it's just how did they suddenly appear in Yangcheng?" said Guan Tong.

Qin Shan narrowed his eyes, "Does that even need to be said? Mortar hitting a toad, these bastards have gathered together."

Then he said: "If I catch him, I will definitely pluck all his hair out."

Chang Wei had been thinking about something and did not respond to the three.

After a long time, he said: "Immediately send someone to deliver this news to Yancheng."

Immediately, he looked at the Trench in front of Yangcheng.

This kind of trench layout was something Yan Wang had emphasized to them at the Military Academy.

Sometimes he truly wondered how Yan Wang understood these strange and peculiar tactics.

After all, having fought all the way here, the noble clans did not understand this style of warfare at all.

This must have been concocted by the Westerners in Yang City.

Therefore, how did Yan Wang know that the Western Lands had such tactics?

Unable to figure it out, he shook his head, cast these distracting thoughts from his mind, and began to face the battle before him.

The three trenches of Yang City were very deep and connected together, with a width exceeding one hundred meters, filled with

soldiers.

Launching a charge against such trenches would come at the cost of heavy casualties.

After all, the noble clan soldiers hiding in the trenches could fire a shot and then hide back in the trench to reload their Bullet before firing again.

Meanwhile, the charging soldiers were completely exposed.

To deal with such trenches, they could only dig trenches opposite them.

Use trenches to counter trenches.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the soldiers to likewise dig three identical trenches.

Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
