Chapter 1354 The court did not give up on them(1/2)
The 100,000 Anxi troops were in a hurry after leaving the capital, and most of them were marching in a hurry except for necessary rest and recuperation.
The military situation is urgent and time is of the utmost importance.
At the forefront of the army was Ye Wushuang, who was wearing silver armor and a cloak on her back. Her pretty face was full of solemnity.
It was too late to send troops, there was no time at all.
What she was most worried about was that before the Anxi Army reached Pingzhang Pass, the Western Region Army had already attacked.
There is no such possibility.
There are only 30,000 armed forces in the northwest, which is absolutely difficult to resist.
After arriving in Tongzhou, no army from the Western Regions appeared. Could it be that the intelligence was false and it was not that serious?
As we continued to march and sent out scouts to investigate, we finally learned the details.
Just as the army from the Western Regions was attacking, officials from the two northwest regions spontaneously organized themselves to resist the foreign enemies!
At first, you could still see refugees fleeing and migrating, but later it was hard to see them. When the people of Tongzhou heard about it, they all rushed to Weizhou.
They actually went against the wind!
Ye Wushuang was a little unconvinced, but she was completely convinced when she witnessed several waves of people gathering to go to Weizhou.
The people spontaneously resisted foreign enemies.
It is precisely because of this that the army of the Western Regions failed to attack Tongzhou, at least it is still in Weizhou now.
Everyone knows how powerful the Western Region army is.
In the absence of regular troops, how much does it cost for civilians to do this?
Ye Wushuang didn't dare to think about it.
She only knew that she should march quickly, give them support, and let the people of the two northwest states know that the court had not given up on them!
"Send the order, speed up the march!"
Ye Wushuang thought to himself and issued another emergency march order!
Her identity changed very quickly, and no one dared to violate the seventeen taboos and fifty-four beheadings she set.
Of course, she is not alone, there are two people assisting her.
Ji Rui is a military advisor and can make plans.
This princess who was regretted by the late Emperor Wei as not being born to a daughter finally had a place to be used.
Guan Ning thought the same way.
If Ji Rui were a boy, I'm afraid there would be nothing wrong with her uncle.
She is good at assessing situations.
After learning about the people's spontaneous defense against the enemy, Ji Rui keenly seized the opportunity to spread the news throughout the army to stimulate morale and fighting spirit.
Even if the common people can do this, the soldiers who have the duty to protect their homes and the country should do their best.
All the officers and soldiers in the army were shocked and excited to fight.
Even when given many urgent marching orders, he still had no complaints.
Wen Youjun Ji Rui.
Wu has Jin Yue.
Jin Yue, who was once a member of the Zhenbei Army, is well versed in the ways of the military.
The Anxi Army rushed to Weizhou under the leadership of these three iron ladies!
At the same time, Deng Mingyuan led the main force of the Western Regions army to Qianxi County!
Having just stepped into the Central Plains and raided the border, I had very good expectations for the prospects of this war.
Deng Mingyuan also divided the army into multiple routes, thinking of advancing in multiple routes and capturing the two northwest states as quickly as possible. Strategically speaking, he had a large rear area.
But not long after, a basin of cold water rushed up.
They met with fierce resistance.
This made Deng Mingyuan a little confused. Could it be that the intelligence was wrong?
At this time, the Wei and Liang coalition forces did not attack Daning?
Daning has a large-scale garrison in the northwest?
Isn’t this hitting the muzzle of a gun?
Deng Mingyuan was panicked!
He knew very well how powerful Guan Ning was. Without the Wei and Liang coalition forces to attack Daning, he would not dare to lead his troops!
But the result was unbelievable!
It is not the regular army that resists them, but the common people!
When did the people of Daning have such awareness?
As someone who once lived in this country, he knows it all too well.
The people of the two northwest states have always complained about the imperial court. It would be good enough not to rebel and cause chaos at this time. How could they spontaneously resist foreign enemies?
The most unlikely thing happened!
He had considered all factors, but he had not considered this.
But he didn't care either.
They are just ordinary people. What do they mean in front of the powerful army of the Western Regions?
As long as it's not the Zhenbei Army who comes, he won't be afraid!
The mantis is just blocking the car.
When they hit a wall, they will realize how naive they are.
The result once again made him unbelievable!
These ordinary people actually mean it.
They seemed to be unafraid of death. From being difficult to resist at first, they gradually occupied the city and the location, and actually caused obstacles to his Western Region army.
The troops sent to Tongzhou were driven back before they really left!
Yes!
They encountered stubborn resistance from the Northwest Army.
Many armies suffered defeats one after another. Although they did not suffer much losses, they were hindered.
They want to trap their Western Region army in Weizhou!
Deng Mingyuan was so smart, how could he not know the enemy's intentions.
In this way, the impact of the Western Region's attack on Daning can be minimized. After the crisis of the Wei and Liang coalition forces is resolved, we can start to deal with it...
Of course Deng Mingyuan must clear the obstacles.
What he didn't expect was that these people who he didn't take seriously would actually cause him so much trouble!
There must be a master commanding behind this.
They will not confront us head-on, but occupy some important and important cities, blocking the way south.
There is another trick that is even more cruel...that is food control!
Weizhou is a barren land, and the common people have limited food reserves.
It is difficult to grab food, but these people don't give them a chance.
Even if everything is burned, not even a cent will be left to them.
The army of the Western Regions, which was originally meant to survive by burning, killing, looting, but had no source of resources.
The morale of the army was turbulent, and the soldiers were quite complaining.
You say this is the Heavenly Mansion of the prosperous age, with a vast world and countless beauties.
But now all I see is endless loess.
How could the soldiers be willing to fight under such circumstances?
Of course, it would not work without food. Deng Mingyuan had no choice but to lead the army to find food, and at the same time sent the vanguard army to open the way...
Now he has led the main army to Qianxi County.
This is the only way to go south, and he also knows that there are enemies blocking the way in Laiyang City ahead!
If he wants to eliminate it in one fell swoop, then the road ahead will be clear!
It’s just that something unpleasant happens right now.
"You said that attacking a small Qianxi County resulted in the loss of nearly 8,000 troops?"
To be continued...
