Lu Zhen suddenly realized and said: "So, Marshal, you transferred them into the cavalry?" Although he disagreed with Bian Chongxing's words, as an old subordinate of Bian Chongxing, he knew very well Bian Chongxing's vision and personality. Since
Bian Chongxing has said this, so he must have a reason.
Bian Zhongxing nodded: "Yes. It's a pity that Feng Shuai and Xin Shuai are not here, otherwise the progress of the five of them would have been very rapid. But this is good, at least this is the experience they have figured out, and the impression will be deeper.
"
In this reorganization of 100,000 soldiers, except for Wu Xiaolangjun's 5,000 cavalry, most of them were organized into infantry. Bian Zhongxing had long wanted to promote Wu Xiaolangjun to one level. But all the previous officers had already
After reaching the quota, Bian Zhongxing was too embarrassed to be promoted. After all, they had no foundation in the army before, and they were too young, so they might not be able to convince the public. For God's sake, no one in the army should make things difficult for them. However,
I'm just afraid that the soldiers on the Third Road in Hetao have always been unruly, and no one can control them. If Wu Xiaolangjun's confidence is undermined by this, it will definitely leave a shadow on his future military career.
But this time the army expansion is different. The 100,000 soldiers this time are all recruits who have been directly converted from the reserve force. Although Wu Xiaolangjun's qualifications are shallow, he is better than the recruits after all. They are students of Xuanyuan Military Academy, and now
There were enough soldiers, so Bian Zhongxing specially promoted them, and the original infantry under his command also became cavalry. Now, the five of them should be regarded as the youngest Qianqi captains in Hetao.
Bian Zhongxing organized most of the soldiers into infantry, which was also the result of careful discussions with Chu Xiangcheng and others. Now the Hetao Three Roads have become a self-contained system. Except for Haotian himself and Tianyi, they continued because of the common people in the world.
In the end, the court and the military and political parties below had all abandoned their support. Among other things, Lin Taiyue, one of the four famous scholars in Qingfeng, and Xia Houming, the former court official, both felt that the current situation of Hetao Sanlu was very good, whether it was people's livelihood or not.
The situation and administrative efficiency are much higher than those of the empire. If they were allowed to choose on their own, they would definitely prefer the current situation. As for overthrowing the Qingfeng Empire and seeking to stand on their own feet, they may not agree, but they will definitely not oppose it.
As for the military in Hetao, they are united. Needless to say, they killed the five generals in blood, Bian Zhongxing himself was like this. In the eyes of the five of them, the empire has lost its most basic deterrent force. No matter how many people are there,
Wherever we talk about Hetao, Li Xiaositu Lie, Chun Jianshang and others below have no good impressions of the empire at all. They are all common people from Wulu and Hetaolu in Hebei. After going through those years
After the catastrophe, their sense of identification with the empire has disappeared. But after all, they are the top leaders of Hetao, and they still know how to restrain themselves in public. Except for the occasional rant in Xinke, there is nothing. And Zhu Shi below
Talking about others, they don't even care about the most basic face of the empire, and they are all turning against each other. It can be said that the current Hetao Sanlu is completely better than the three major aristocratic families.
As for Haotian's side and the two allies in Hetao, Luo Xiangchu, Xiangcheng and Xuanji were ready to overthrow Qingfeng from the beginning. Xin Jiao is indifferent, maybe in her heart, it doesn't matter what identity Haotian is. Zhang Yuewan was born
The Zhang family in Huaishui are rebels at heart. And Tianwu Xinghe and Bloody Plateau have invested so much money in Haotian, don't they just hope that Haotian can rebel?
However, Haotian is not willing to stand on its own subjectively. Although Chu Xiangcheng and Luo Xiang have promised that when Hetao has the ability to unify China, Haotian will definitely rebel. However, they did not elaborate on the reasons.
Tianyi does not want the world to suffer because of his own selfishness, and Luo Xiang and others, who are well aware of Haotian and Tianyi's behavior, have never mentioned it in front of them in the future. However, they have already had their concerns in their hearts. I want to
Dismounting, Naihe goes bareback. It’s not like the yellow robe has never happened before, and they definitely wouldn’t mind doing it a second time.
Considering that Hetao will one day herd horses in the Central Plains, when expanding the army, Chu Xiangcheng and others had already thought clearly about strengthening the infantry. Before that, Hetao had nearly 400,000 troops. Among them, after the expansion of the army, there were ten cavalry.
Fifty thousand. Including the ally Bloody Plateau, the cavalry in Hetao has reached a terrifying 300,000. Coupled with the excellent cavalry generals and the most sophisticated Bloody Plateau horses, if all the cavalry are gathered together, even with the three major nomads in the northwest,
Rouran, the most powerful among the ethnic groups, has no problem confronting the tough.
However, the cost of cavalry is too high after all, and in areas such as Jiangnan Third Road and Yizhou Road in the southern part of the empire, the room for cavalry to play is really limited. In addition, the backbone of guarding cities, guarding passes, and wars are infantry, so
After careful consideration, both the military and the government agreed to expand the infantry.
Bian Zhongxing himself was a famous infantry general, so these soldiers fell into his hands, and they were naturally handy. Except for the 30,000 soldiers who were sent to the edge of the Bloody Plateau for adaptive training, the rest of the soldiers were all together with the original defenders of Jiayuguan.
The organization was disrupted by Bian Chongxing and re-divided into four divisions. Four of his subordinates, Lanuo, were responsible for one division. Each division had 30,000 people, and they took turns to defend the city wall for half a day. Jiayuguan Pass was built on the mountain and was known as the best in the world.
The terrain of Xiongguan is naturally extremely dangerous. When the Western Legion defended this place, the maximum number of troops in peacetime was 50,000 soldiers. Although there were many soldiers in Xibu Gaza, they were limited by the terrain of Jiayuguan, and the number of soldiers they could invest each time was
The maximum siege force was 50,000 people. Relying on the complete defenses on the city wall that had been improved by Lin Yuanke, even though he only led a group of new soldiers, with the concerted efforts of the Hetao generals, the defense line was still impregnable.
"Commander." Lu Zhen said with some confusion: "The total number of troops left behind in Hetao is only 280,000, of which there are still 100,000 new soldiers. And we have concentrated 150,000 soldiers on the front line of Jiayuguan, and now there are only 150,000 soldiers stationed in Yumenguan.
There are 30,000, 20,000 are stationed in Anzhou, and 10,000 are stationed in Huangzhou and Dingzhou. The remaining 30,000 cavalry are stationed in Yanzhou to facilitate support to surrounding areas. The relationship between the major forces around us and our Hetao is very different.
It's not very friendly, and my subordinates are worried that if any party raises troops to make a surprise attack, our situation will not be very optimistic."
Bian Zhongxing smiled slightly: "What you said is indeed true, but I have my own calculations in my heart. Although there are only 30,000 troops stationed at Yumen Pass, Chunjian Shang is also a strong general. The three major nomads in the northwest were in the battle last year.
They were deeply wounded. The famous iron eagle generals Hengshi Hasan and Qiu Meng Memphis were said to have been idle due to huge losses. Therefore, it was impossible for them to raise their troops to march south in a short time. Although the Ummah Dynasty had rebelled, Prime Minister Guo Huai
They are shrewd people, and with Uma's national strength, unless they follow Iron Eagle Qiuming, they will never send troops alone. So the only thing they have to watch out for is the Northeastern Three Kingdoms Allied Forces in the direction of Wuzhou on the Taihang Road. But in order to deal with the situation in the southeast, Cassimbas
A total of 400,000 troops were withdrawn from Youyun Sixteen Prefectures to Yangzhou Road. Coupled with the troops of the three Northeastern countries on the river defense line, although Mandan was strong, it could not mobilize too many troops for a while. Don't forget, Guanying's
Soul Eater is keeping an eye on every move of their army. Besides, I specially equipped Situ Lie at Hukou Ferry in Anzhou with a total of 20,000 cavalry, including 10,000 heavy cavalry. If Mandan really
If we raid Shazhou, then when the Spring Sword Award proves that we are against the enemy, Situ Lie can still cross the river east to sneak attack on the opponent's back. There are still 30,000 cavalry in Yanzhou City. As long as they can last for three days, our reinforcements will be
Able to reach Hexi Road Shazhou at the fastest speed."
"What about the Yinfeng Mountain Range? The Li family and the Song family have never forgotten us." Lu Zhen continued.
"Li Tieming is wily and scheming. Brother Li Xiaomo is very like his father. If it is not forced, Qinchuan Road will never easily get involved in the war with us in Hetao. Besides, the 150,000 troops of the Lord and Mistress Qingcheng are still on Yuzhou Road. If
If the Li family really dares to send troops from Yinfeng Castle, the first thing he must consider is how to deal with the lord's 150,000 elite soldiers. As for Yizhou Road, it is true that Song Zhengfeng has an army of 400,000, but his favorite thing is to add insult to injury and take advantage of others.
.Last time he made a sneak attack on Huangzhou, but he was easily defeated by me, so he will definitely not be so hasty now. Moreover, the 100,000 soldiers of the Blood Commander and the Du Commander are stationed on the South Yunnan Road, and there are also 100,000 soldiers of our allies on the Blood Plateau.
If Song Zhengfeng really has the courage to send troops northward, then the Bloody Plateau will definitely send troops to march eastward. And with the character of the bloody commander and the independent commander, he will definitely lead the army northward to Yizhou Road in anger. The Song family has always liked to care about gains and losses.
It won't offend us easily."
"The handsome man is wise." Lu Zhen said sincerely.
"Hmph, without sufficient consideration, do you think Mr. Chu would agree to my commander's arrangement of troops like this? In that case, you are too underestimated Mr. Chu, right? These days, my commander is considering whether, if the time is right, I will
All the left-behind troops in Hetao will be transferred to our Jiayuguan in turn to enhance their actual combat experience. Otherwise, how can such a group of new soldiers help the lord to dominate the world in the future?" Bian Zhongxing said calmly. He looked up and saw that Sa Shan's army was replacing
Instead of a group of attacking warriors, they were replaced by coalition forces from the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions.
Although the war is not going well, Sibu Gaza's mood is not bad. However, the Sashan Dynasty has lost more than 30,000 soldiers in four consecutive days of attacks, which makes Sibu Gaza somewhat unhappy. The original plan was to
He came to give the opponent a blow, but he didn't know that the opponent was not only well-equipped, but also had well-organized soldiers. Not only did he not take advantage, but his own losses were also considerable.
Frankly speaking, Sibughasha did not agree with King Agathius's decision. Although Qingfeng is now extremely weak, the strength of several of their local lords is still very strong. Not to mention anything else, just occupying Qingfeng
The Scarlet Clan in Ninglu and Haotian in Hetao are not easy-going people.
It is not that he has never been to Jiayuguan. During his more than 40 years of fighting on the battlefield, he spent at least ten years under Jiayuguan. However, in the past 40 years, he has never climbed the city wall of Jiayuguan. And under Jiayuguan
The total number of casualties was no less than 200,000. Especially when the young and energetic Agathius conquered Jiayuguan, nearly 100,000 soldiers were killed by Tie Zhen in the first battle. As a soldier, he
He is proud to be able to capture such a powerful pass. However, if it is at the cost of the lives of countless soldiers, and ultimately relies on countless corpses to capture it, then he would rather not. As a famous general, he must have the consciousness of a famous general, and their
Glory is definitely not made of the innocent bones of soldiers. However, he also understands the importance of Jiayuguan.
The Sashan Dynasty, which was founded on religion, should have bordered Jiayuguan fifty years ago. At that time, Sashan had just wiped out the great power in Central China, Xixi, to the southwest of Jiayuguan. The leader of the country at that time, Hardy, took advantage of the great victory and prepared to attack by force.
Jiayuguan, a glimpse of the wealth of the Celestial Empire. But unfortunately, it happened to be the second year after Qingfeng was ambushed by the Three Northeastern Kingdoms and the Goryeo Dynasty outside Shanhaiguan. The angry Qingfeng Empire vented all its anger on Sashan.
As a result, Sashan's 300,000-strong army attacked the key point more and more, and most of the soldiers were lost. Hardy himself was also smashed into meat by the trebuchet on the city wall. This became the national humiliation of the Sashan Dynasty. Xibu Gaza still clearly remembers,
In the first year of their attack, the Qingfeng Empire lost half a million elites, and the garrison at Jiayuguan was only 30,000. Even in the end, the garrison at Jiayuguan was only 60,000. And the garrison commander at that time was
Tiezhen, the partial general who had just fallen from the defense line of the Northeast Great Wall a year ago. When they launched another large-scale attack more than ten years ago, it was Tiezhen again. At that time, he was demoted to Anxi Road, and Sashan fell in love with him again.
A gray nose. Of course, Tie Zhen is now Qingfeng's Minister of War and the Grand Marshal of the World's Arms and Horses.
It was this old man who was already over 90 years old. He not only severely defeated the Sashan Dynasty twice, but also firmly held the territory of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions in his hands, making him a Qingfeng in the face of Sashan and the
A barrier in Rouran. It was not easy for the old man to be transferred back to the Holy Capital of Tiandu, but at this time Rouran had begun to leap across the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions and frequently plundered the northern lands of Sashan. At the most angry time, the Qingfeng Empire
It fell down, but the Hetao Haotian that had just stood up in the northwest was obviously not a good bird. At least the Bian Zhongxing in front of him was not an easy bone to chew on.
Because she could not achieve the desired results in the east, Sashan had to focus on the Western Continent in the west and the Maurya Dynasty in the southeast. However, to conquer the Maurya Dynasty, she had to cross the Qatar Desert first, and at this time, although the Maurya Dynasty was on the verge of collapse
, but the garrison on the northwest frontier was particularly strong, so Sashan returned without success every time.
And if he goes westward, he will inevitably fight against the Obsburg Empire again. Agathus may not care that his wife is the daughter of Nicholas II, but he cannot care about the powerful military strength and power of the Obsburg Empire.
Suganev's fierce offensive. If Sibu Gaza had not fought desperately to block Suganev's fierce offensive, I am afraid that Sashan would have perished now.
For this reason, Sa Shan had to turn her attention to the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions. The Sea of Death Desert is certainly terrifying, but due to the smooth trade routes, the wealth accumulated by the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions is equally attractive. However, the Western Regions
Although the Thirty-six Kingdoms are weak individually, they are a considerable force when united. In addition, Rouran is behind the support, so they have not achieved much results. So after careful consideration, Sashan
It was decided to choose the breakthrough point at Jiayuguan Pass.
