Shen Feng looked at the terrain of Hezhou. There was a huge mountain at the back and a river in front. Hezhou was developing on this narrow and long plain.
In ancient times, the most important factor in building a city was whether there were rivers.
Nan Guang had the Pearl River, Nan Ning had the Yong River, Wu Han had the Yangtze River, Xi'an had the Yellow River, and so on. Other than nomads, most people would choose to build cities in water sources.
Hezhou was no exception. The He River was in front of them, and there was a water source for irrigation.
If it wasn't for the fact that ships couldn't sail through Nanguang, Shen Feng would have considered using a ship to blow it up.
"We are about to enter the territory of Guixi. Please set up an attack strategy.”The system reminded him.
Shen Feng woke up with a start and realized that more than two hours had passed.
It was ten in the morning now, and it would be afternoon when they arrived. However, the road was difficult to walk on, so it would be good if they could reach Hezhou City.
If it was still early, they could start the first wave of attacks after resting for a while and catch Hezhou City off guard.
"Regroup on the other side of He River and start long-range artillery fire from tanks. If time permits, soldiers build bridges and attempt to cross the river for the first time.”
"Black Hawk, bomb the city wall. Make sure to tear a hole in it.”Shen Feng ordered.
He wanted to use all the troops he could to shock the entire country and the world.
If there wasn't enough time, they would use the tanks to bombard them for a few hours before withdrawing their troops to scare them.
On the highway, thousands of military vehicles set off for Hezhou in rows.
The tanks were leading the way. More than 300 tanks lined up in a row, stretching the team for five to six kilometers.
Behind the tanks were vehicles that transported soldiers. They were all moving alone, one after another.
It was like a long dragon that was walking. The head and tail of the dragon could not be seen.
The farmers who were farming near the highway raised their heads curiously when they heard the commotion on the road.
Majestic tanks sped across the highway, one after another, faster than carriages!
They watched for more than ten minutes, but the team still hadn't left. They were still coming from behind, as if it would never end.
"How long is this line?"
"Isn't this the direction of Hezhou? Are they going to conquer Guixi?"
"Recover it as soon as possible and let everyone live a good life.”
"Yeah, I told my son to join the army, but he didn't want to.”
There had never been a dynasty where the people would yearn for war.
Only Shen Feng was an exception!
They enjoyed the beauty of the new dynasty. High-yield crops, new houses, new policies, and so on made the people feel very comfortable.
Their requirements were very simple. They had food to eat, clothes to wear, a house to live in, and money to see a doctor. That was enough. They were already very happy.
At this stage, they felt that this was already a peaceful and prosperous era. They hoped that the entire country could be unified and everyone could live such a good life.
Therefore, there was unprecedented unity and unity in Nanguang. After the announcement of the compulsory conscription, almost every family competed to let their son join the army. They were proud to join the army, and it was shameful to be unsuccessful.
Even the girls were not inferior to men and competed to sign up. Unlike the Manchu era, conscription was like going to jail, and their faces were dejected.
The people of Nanguang were all sighing with emotion. Times had changed.
The convoy continued to speed on the highway. After an hour and a half, they finally saw the last car.
The first car had already arrived at Guixi.
The farmers in the fields were shocked.
Just this convoy alone was more imposing than any army.
When the first car got off the highway and arrived at the border of Guixi, the road began to become difficult to walk on.
In ancient times, the official roads were very narrow and could not be compared to the highway at all.
In ancient times, the width of the official road was ten feet, and only two carriages could walk side by side.
If it was paved with a layer of bluestone, it would be a super high-standard road, which could be called a luxurious version.
However, this path was too narrow for a tank.
One zhang was about 3.3 meters, and the width of the tank was between 3.5 to 4 meters. If there were trees beside it, it could only be broken to advance.
Hence, a very shocking scene appeared. The entire official road was occupied by Shen Feng's steel tank. It was like a steel flood that rampaged on the official road.
These tanks were like giants, charging into the backward civilization.
The merchants and pedestrians on the road had never seen a tank before. Their mouths were wide open in surprise as they hurriedly dodged into the forest. They were all frightened by these steel beasts!
Single-barrel, double-barrel, prismatic attack tanks, and other types of tanks crushed their way through.
No one could stop them from advancing.
"I just heard the news of the war this morning, and you're already here?”
"I heard that Hezhou City's Guard Commander Yao Yundi is still smoking.”
"That's right. They say that we can only fight if the money is in place.”
"These steel giants are driving over. I want to see what he can do!”
People whispered, shook their heads, and sighed. Everyone knew that Hezhou was doomed.
It was just that he did not know how long he could hold on.
Especially the steel cannon. It was even taller than the two of them. Just looking at it made one's heart skip a beat.
