Even if 300,000 Starmoon Troops were to come out in full strength a few years ago, the defending troops of Wing City should be more than enough to hold them off for a period of time.

As long as they were not immediately breached, they could wait for the troops of the other cities to react and immediately send reinforcements.

No matter how one looked at it, this arrangement was very reasonable.

However, despite all their calculations and considerations, they had missed out on one point, which was that they did not have a clear idea of the expansion speed of the Starmoon Troop.

The Great Zhou Empire was still comparing the difference in strength between the two sides with the strength of the Star Moon Army 20 years ago. They did not expect that 20 years had already been enough to tilt the balance of strength between the two sides!

The Starmoon Troop moved like lightning.

After a few days of rapid marching, they immediately surrounded Wing City as quickly as possible.

Before the soldiers in Wing City could come back to their senses, they immediately activated the horn to launch a general attack.

He looked at the Star Moon Army soldiers outside the city.

Countless Great Zhou soldiers in Wing City were dumbfounded.

Although the Great Zhou Imperial Court had sent them to be stationed in Wing City, Wing City had always been one of the Great Zhou’s hinterland in the northeast. No large-scale war had broken out for thousands of years.

It wasn’t until decades ago when the two regions in the northwest became independent that Wing City, an inconspicuous city in the hinterland, became an important military town and began to send heavy troops to guard it.

However, no matter if it was the generals or soldiers stationed in Wing City, they had never thought that the Star Moon Army in Northern Ice River Town would really go down the river to attack the northeast!

Therefore, after seeing the dense crowd below the city, countless people in Wing City could not believe their eyes.

“The Qi army is still fighting against the 12th Company in the north. This is Wing City, why would so many troops suddenly appear?”

“From the flag, this troop seems to be the rebel army of Northern Glacier Town!”

“Did the Star Moon Army of Northern Ice River Town eat the guts of a bear or a leopard? Do you really want to start an all-out war with our Great Zhou?”

“According to Wang Ji’s information, isn’t there only 300,000 Starmoon Troops? Even if it has been more than twenty years, they should have just recovered from the last battle in the north. Why do I see so many soldiers of the Star Moon Army below the city?”

“Judging from the density of the formation, the number of soldiers is far more than 300,000!”

“Something bad, something bad…”

Looking at the orderly formation of the Star Moon Army Army, the soldiers of the Eastern Garrison Army stationed in Wing City were thrown into chaos. For a moment, they almost forgot their duties.

Fortunately, there were still some elite troops sent by Prince Yu in Wing City.

After discovering that the Star Moon Army had appeared outside the city, these elite soldiers reacted quickly and began to take over the commanding power in Wing City. They mobilized the logistics soldiers of the East Army to pile up all kinds of war equipment on the city wall.

But it was too late.

The dense Star Moon Army soldiers took on wave after wave. Their formation was neat, so they did not have to worry about trampling on each other. They marched at an extremely fast speed. Even though they were bombarded by arrows and catapults, they still charged forward like a precise machine. They were well-equipped, and many of their soldiers were equipped with iron armor. Their combat strength far exceeded that of the defenders of Wing City.

Even though the soldiers in the city had come to their senses and were putting up a strong resistance, they still felt powerless against the vast sea of Star Moon Troops.

In less than half a day, Wing City was easily taken down by the Star Moon Army.

The most important reason for the successful occupation of this central city was not only the advantage in numbers, but also the sudden appearance of the Starmoon Troop, which caused the defenders of Wing City to not have time to think clearly when they were attacked by the soldiers.

Before they could even take out all of the city defense equipment in the warehouse, the powerful and fearless special forces of the Star Moon Army seized control of the city gate.

The gates of Wing City opened, and the main force of the Starmoon Troops entered the city without any obstruction.

Most of the defenders of Wing City who realized that they had lost the battle immediately raised their hands and surrendered. A few who resisted violently were killed on the spot.

After taking over Wing City, the Starmoon Army assigned 100,000 soldiers to guard the city. As a backup, they firmly controlled the entrance of the

Starmoon Army from the North Ice River. The remaining 400,000 soldiers carried enough food and grass and continued to rush toward Jincheng, which was further east.

In Ding Yi’s battle plan, the most important thing to execute was the lightning tactic.

They were prepared to use the fastest speed to cause the greatest damage to the defenders of the Great Zhou’s northeast region. Only by stirring up the entire northeast could the Star Moon Army gain a firm foothold here.

Otherwise, whether it was the Great Zhou turning around to attack the Star Moon Army or the Great Qi taking this opportunity to further annex the land of the Great Zhou, it would not be a good thing for the Star Moon Army.

In the following period of time, the Star Moon Army launched a blitzkrieg.

The first to break through was the target of this trip: Jincheng.

Jincheng’s situation was similar to Wing City’s. In terms of military strength, it was even inferior to Wing City. After all, Wing City was heavily guarded by the imperial court, and the target of defense was the Starmoon Army.

Thus, the soldiers of Wing City were still able to put up some defenses.

Jincheng was the last town in the northeast. Under normal circumstances, it would not be exposed to the flames of war.

Even if they were prepared, it would be against Da Qi in the east..
