    Chapter 34: Everyone has their own plans

    The coalition of bandits quickly captured the fine iron mine.

    In the second round of the attack, the soldiers in Jingtie Mine all knew that the bandits were ferocious and that even if they surrendered, there would be no way to survive. They desperately resisted the bandits' attack and cost the bandits more than 500 lives before they could completely control the situation.

    However, unexpectedly, the bandits did not immediately kill the soldiers from the Iron Mine who had made them pay a heavy price. Instead, they unloaded their weapons, and some martial artists sealed the soul caves and opened them separately.

    There were quite a few captured soldiers from the Iron Mine, as many as a thousand. It was indeed a heavy burden for the bandit alliance, which now only had more than 2,000 people left. But if they really killed the opponent,  , will definitely cause a riot among the surrendered soldiers, and Zhu Tian does not want the bandits to lose additional manpower because of this problem.

    In addition, these surrendered soldiers are also bargaining chips for the bandit coalition, and they can be used to resist attacks from Noire City when necessary.

    Until now, Zhu Tiancai knew that he had made a bad move and that he was riding a tiger with no way out.

    From the beginning, he should not have believed in the promise of the Blue Moon Empire and led the bandits to cause chaos on the border of the Qingtian Empire.

    He clearly knew that there would be no benefit in conquering the Fine Iron Mine. If the bandits were stationed here, they would only lose their own advantages. On the contrary, the soldiers of Noire City could attack at any time.

    " Moreover, when Ren Zizhen was defeated, he had already burned the food reserves on the mountain. Even if the bandit coalition defended the mountain, they would not be able to withstand it for long.

    However, before Zhu Tian could reach this point, the Blue Moon Empire had given away a lot of benefits, coupled with the temptation of future feudal lords. The real purpose was not as simple as letting the bandits disrupt the logistics supply line of the Qingtian Empire's frontier troops. It was obviously  If the bandits and Green Grass City and Black Corner City die together, the Qingtian Empire's border troops will lose their only support and supply place within five hundred miles. It will also draw away some of the border troops and allow the Blue Moon Empire to launch a powerful offensive!

    If we were on Earth, the tactics of the Blue Moon Empire would be basically impossible to implement, but this is a world with backward communications. Information transmission still relies on human hands, blue-eyed harriers, wolf smoke, etc. The Blue Moon Empire is fighting for this time difference.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off

    Xuanwu City is thousands of miles away from Black Corner City. Even if you ride a fast mount, it will take two days to go back and forth. Ordinary soldiers march at an even slower pace. It is impossible to reach Black Corner City in less than ten days.  In addition to preparing ordnance and baggage, etc., it takes even more time.

    Although the Imperial Frontier Army can get there faster, it will still take at least three days to reach Black Corner City.

    Because of the bandit turmoil, the nearby civilians have basically moved away. It can be said that the area is hundreds of miles away and sparsely populated. The supply line for the frontier army from Xuanwu City is too long, and Black Point City cannot supply the frontier army.  It is naturally a great danger to the border troops.

    You must know that hundreds of thousands of frontier troops consume an astonishing amount of food in a day. The people here are not like the people on earth who can fill their stomachs by eating just a few taels of white rice. People like Sikong Wu can eat a sheep a day if they let their stomachs go.  It's not a problem. The stored grain, fodder, mount food, etc. can only last for two months at most.

    Normally, Green Grass City can collect food and fodder from civilians to support the frontier army. Now that Green Grass City has been destroyed, Black Corner City itself cannot be protected, and nearby civilians are fleeing in all directions. Qintian City, the only city that can support the frontier army, is difficult to attack due to terrain restrictions.  The Blue Moon Empire was preparing to transport grain and grass to the frontier army on a large scale. It was precisely this time difference that the Blue Moon Empire was preparing to hit the frontier army of the Qingtian Empire before the Qingtian Empire could react!

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Dozens of Martial Masters Killed Out of the Fine Iron Mine, Lost More Than Half Their Lives, and Finally Destroyed Several Giant Siege Vehicles. Even if they could be repaired, it couldn¡¯t be done in an instant.

    There are less than 200 second-level martial artists in Black Corner City, and nearly fifty martial artists have been stationed at the Fine Iron Mine. This time, forty martial artists were sent to lurk in nearby mountain streams. They spent a lot of money to destroy these siege giants.  Cars, even if the alliance of bandits kills the fine iron mines and attacks Black Point City, without these giant siege cars, the difficulty of siege will increase several times!

    Seeing less than half of the elite martial arts masters who returned with almost everyone injured, Mo Anwu, another Martial Emperor of Black Corner City, was a little worried and said to Qiu Pojun: "City Lord, you really destroyed this huge siege vehicle. Those powerful warriors."  Will the bandits stay in the Jingte Mine? Use the dangers of the Second Young Master and Sikong Wu and the thousands of soldiers in the Jingte Mine as bait to lure these bandits to attack the Jingte Mine. If they come down the mountain immediately,  Our troops are absolutely unable to withstand it, wouldn¡¯t it be a waste of the strength of the Iron Mines?¡±

    Another strong man with a dark body and an ape-like body was also a little puzzled: "Mo Zongfeng is right. The soldiers from the Jingtie Mine plus the reinforcements from Qin Tiancheng are basically equivalent."?One-third of our troops in Noire City were eaten by bandits like this. My subordinates really don¡¯t dare to agree!  "

    Qiu Pojun frowned and sighed deeply: "Of course what you said is reasonable, but I also have difficulties. This bandit turmoil is backed by the Blue Moon Empire. Otherwise, how would the bandits have such sophisticated equipment and weapons?  , everyone has a good mount? If these bandits are allowed to disperse, when the two countries go to war, they will be a great threat to our army's rear. "

    "In addition, I have already contacted the emperor. In order to avoid similar bandit turmoil in the future, I need to let these bandits stay in the mountain for three days. The emperor's team will come to the fine iron mines to destroy them. If not  In this way, Lianshan will not be allowed to risk staying on top of the fine iron mines."

    Mo Anwu pondered for a moment: "The safety of the Second Young Master and Sikong Wu"

    The several generals who followed Qiu Pojun were all close subordinates who had visited the ancient tomb together. Qiu Pojun did not need to hide them. He looked in the direction of the fine iron mine: "I have already discussed this with Zizhen.  When necessary, I will take Sikong Wu and hide in the ancient tomb. With the terrain of the ancient tomb, even if the bandits discover it, as long as Zizhen and Lei Meng are safe, they will not be able to attack."

    "Then what should we do now?" A middle-aged martial artist with messy yellow hair and sharp eyes asked in a deep voice.

    "Wait!" Qiu Pojun's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he continued, "Although the terrain of the fine iron mine cannot be said to be dangerous, there is only one passage suitable for horses and other mounts to go down the mountain. The bandits must pass through this place if they think about it.  They suffered heavy casualties when they captured the Fine Iron Mine, so they did not want to confront us head-on and chose to temporarily repair at the Fine Iron Mine."

    "They never imagined that the empire had long expected that the Blue Moon Empire would be restless and sent reinforcements to the border ten days ago. They would pass through here in three days. By then, not only would the border army not reduce their troops to fight against the Blue Moon Empire, they would also  On the contrary, we can quickly increase our troops to suppress the opponent."

    Mo Anwu is still a little worried: "The Blue Moon Empire has been planning for so long, and the military strength on the border will naturally not be as simple as it seems. Now people on the border are panicked, and civilians are migrating around. Even if the empire increases its troops and supplies cannot keep up,  As long as the situation cannot be opened up quickly, once we fall into a quagmire of confrontation, we will probably be the ones who suffer!"

    Qiu Pojun sighed and said helplessly: "The border land has never been peaceful. Those guys in the empire put my fiefdom here, how could it be a good idea! But this is not something we can affect, so we should solve the problem at hand first.  Let¡¯s talk about these bandits.¡±

    After this bandit turmoil, more than 30,000 of the hundreds of thousands of citizens of Black Point City were killed. More families and even whole villages moved to other places. Less than 20% remained in the territory of Black Point City.  The originally infertile farmland was abandoned. Even if the bandits were wiped out and the border troops withstood the attack of the Blue Moon Empire, it would probably take more than ten years for Black Corner City to recover!
