April 23, 293 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.

On this day, the East Route Army with a total strength of 80000 finally pulled out, pointing directly at Ariel, the companion capital of the Holy Hiran empire.

The West Route Army with a total force of 64000 and the East Route Army with a total force of 80000 were like two sharp swords, stabbing straight at the two important cities of the Holy Hiran empire.

As for the more than 50000 prisoners in chuboer fortress, they were handed over to the transport team of the northern border administration.

In order to cooperate with Su Cheng's "Aurora" offensive, the northern border administration also made every effort.

With the help of the central government, a transport team with a total size of 150000 people was squeezed out to help transport all kinds of booty of the aurora offensive.

Naturally, these more than 50000 prisoners of war are also one of the spoils of war, and they are also more useful and valuable spoils of war.

These prisoners of war are all cheap labor, do not need to give them any compensation, just give them the food they need to survive.

The 200000 Hiram soldiers captured in the "overlord counterattack" have now been taken to the north to build roads.

Now more than 50000 nearly free labor force has been added, and the people of the northern border administration are not to mention how happy they are.

The reason why the combined regiment should stay in chuboer fortress for a few days after attacking chuboer fortress is, on the one hand, to rest the troops and, on the other hand, to wait for the transport team of the northern border administration to pull people.

Now, more than 50000 prisoners of war in chuboer fortress have also been transported back to the British Empire in batches, and chuboer fortress has also been handed over to the people of the Northern Territory administration.

……

……

As the companion capital of the holy Hiram Empire, the strategic value of Ariel is needless to say.

There are 24 cities between chuboer fortress and Ariel.

In other words - the East Route Army, which must ensure the smooth supply line, must capture these 24 cities one by one before it can reach the city of Ariel.

After only two days, the vanguard troops led by Deng Jiaer successfully arrived at Ulan, the first city blocking their way to Ariel.

Ulan is just a little-known town. If not for participating in the "Aurora" offensive, Deng Jiaer didn't know that there was a city called Ulan in the holy Helan empire.

According to the intelligence spied out by the scouts, Ulan is a small city with low walls, a total population of only 70000, and there are only more than 200 defenders in the city, all of whom are weak soldiers with low combat effectiveness.

Just from the paper data, we can see how vulnerable Wulan is.

Deng Jiaer, who commands the vanguard force, is not only responsible for opening the way, but also responsible for solving some weak and small enemies that the vanguard force alone can deal with.

This Ulan city belongs to a weak enemy that can be solved only by the strength of the vanguard forces.

There are more than 10000 people in the vanguard force, and the trump force of Michael knights, the German undead team, is also in the vanguard force. With such combat power, it is easy to win Ulan.

But after the troops came to Wulan City, Deng Jiaer did not directly launch an attack.

Deng Jia'er remembered the battle essentials Su Cheng told them:

First persuade the enemy city to surrender, and then launch an attack if the enemy city is unwilling to surrender. After conquering the city, they will retaliate against the illiterate slaughterhouse.

Although it is easy to capture this Ulan, it is best to take it without leaving a blood.

Therefore, after the troops came to Ulan City, Deng Jiaer was not in a hurry to attack the city, but first sent someone to shoot her persuasion into the city.

……

……

Holy Hiran Empire, Ulan city.

After receiving the news that the britannian army was approaching, the city Lord of Ulan sent for reinforcements and converted the hall he usually used to entertain guests into a battle command room to make all preparations to resist the enemy.

The Lord of Ulan city was sitting in this temporarily modified battle command room, looking at a letter on his hand with a gloomy face.

In the battle command room, in addition to the city master, there are several officers guarding the army in the city.

The letter that the city Lord is reading now is the persuasion letter that Deng Jiaer just sent someone to shoot in with a bow and arrow.

This persuasion book is very long, and there are a lot of polite words and polite expressions.

However, if the content of this elegant book of persuasion is compressed, the book of persuasion actually only says one sentence:

[surrender obediently, if you don't surrender - butcher city]

After reading the letter of persuasion with strong anger in his heart, the Lord of Ulan city immediately tore the letter into pieces.

"If you want to fight, fight!" The city Lord gnashed his teeth. "Do they think I'm afraid of their threat? We will never surrender! We will fight the hateful invaders to the last minute! "

"Lord..."

As soon as the mayor's voice fell, an officer in front of him said in a cautious tone:

"I think... We'd better surrender..."

As soon as the officer's voice fell, the city Lord immediately threw angry eyes at him.

The officer's body was shaken by the city Lord's eyes.

"What did you just say?!" The city Lord roared at the officer.

At this time, the officer seemed to be out of his mind, swallowed his saliva and boldly shouted:

"Lord! I think - we'd better choose to surrender! "

"Lord, did you see it on the wall just now? There are at least tens of thousands of britannians outside the city! "

"And there are only 212 defenders in our city!"

"Even if all our soldiers are fierce soldiers who take one as ten, they are not the opponent of the enemy outside the city!"

"What's more, the combat effectiveness of these 212 soldiers in our city must not be as good as those of the Knights of the British Empire!"

"In addition, our city lacks all kinds of city guarding equipment, not even many arrows."

"We have no way to compete with the British Army outside the city!"

"If we fight with tens of thousands of enemy troops outside the city, it's just a suicide! Just adding unnecessary casualties! "

"Lord, no matter how hard we struggle, we can't bring considerable damage to the British Army outside the city, so our best choice now should be to surrender to protect the whole city..."

Before the officer finished, he was severely reprimanded by the city master:

"You bastard! When the enemy is present, he should say such despondent words! "

"Lord, I'm not discouraged. I this...... "

The officer wanted to defend again, but the city Lord obviously didn't want to hear his voice anymore.

"Are you still not a national of the holy Hiram Empire? Now that the enemy is in front of us, we don't even think about how to kill the enemy, but we just want to surrender! "

"Your behavior is infidelity!"
