Chapter 270: Tie Zhen’s Battle Plan [Lifting the Ban]
Luo Xiang is busy here, and there is no time for the imperial court. Now the Qingfeng royal family, Hetao Haotian, Huaishui Zhang family and Qinchuan Li family are already grasshoppers tied to a rope. No one can escape.
Because of this, the exchange of information from all four parties was particularly frequent. The information detected by Hetao reached the ears of Pang Ye and others in the shortest time, and the news of the Japanese pirates' movements detected by Huaishui Gale Wind also reached the ears of Pang Ye and others in the shortest possible time.
The news reached Luo Xiang.
After Pang Ye learned about the Wuyou Demon Lord's dancing soul, he determined the specific walking route of the dancing soul through collecting winds, and then mobilized more than a dozen Ouchi masters to ambush him. However, after all, the dancing soul was one of the eight masters of the evil way.
Even if she is facing an opponent of the same weight, if she does not want to fight to the death, it is still easy to escape. Although Pang Ye's ambush failed, at least one thing is certain.
The master actually returned to the world, which was obviously a very bad omen, which indirectly proved that Luo Xianghe Xuanji's guess was correct.
After An Yongchang learned about this incident, he silently increased the number of the auxiliary king's bodyguards by at least double. Although he and the auxiliary king now have some estrangement, after all, the two had good relations for a long time.
Cooperative relationship. If the assistant king, his great supporter, falls, his future life will not be easy.
In Tie Zhen's war room, the three pillars, the Ying Lie Emperor's Auxiliary King, An Yongchang Haotian, and the commanders of each legion were all here. After nearly forty years, Tie Zhen, the general marshal of the country's military forces, was finally
Putting on the armor he had been missing for a long time, he stood in front of the battle map hanging on the wall with a solemn expression, constantly giving various military orders.
Although Xuanji told his master Pang Ye all his suspicions about Tiezhen, Sima Danggui and others, Emperor Yinglie and Pang Ye were not wary of Tiezhen at all. Tiezhen was still the commander-in-chief during the war, even if
The Auxiliary King has no right to interfere with Tie Zhen's command. Of course, with Tie Zhen's prestige, no one in Qingfeng can compete with him.
"It has now entered late March, and the Sixteen States of Youyun have begun to recover. If April enters, then the three Northeastern countries will definitely be able to mobilize a large number of troops to go south, so we must achieve at least a staged victory before April.
We don’t have much time, and through this period of running-in, the coalition forces have greatly improved both in terms of cooperation and trust in their comrades. Therefore, I decided to start the decisive battle in these two days. I don’t know.
What do you think?" Tie Zhen said in a deep voice.
Everyone shook their heads silently. In terms of military command, Tie Zhen's attainments are unparalleled. Although they may be able to make some modifications in some small places, when it comes to this strategic level,
After discussing with Pang Ye and Sima Danggui, Tiezhen must have a comprehensive plan.
"Our plan is still the same as before, first to attack the Northeastern Allied Forces led by Simbas, and then to attack the Holy Sect of Paradise led by Cheng Xianqing."
"Tie Shangshu, why don't we choose to attack Cheng Xianqing's Ji Le Army first? The Northeastern Allied Army plus the 150,000 Dongbo Army, there are a total of 550,000. And Cassimbas's generation of famous generals, we are not..." Tie
Before the true words were finished, the Assistant King opened his mouth and said.
Tie Zhen said with a smile: "Your Highness is not from the military, and has never fought against Cassimbas and others, so his views are inevitably biased." He is a veteran of the four dynasties, and has experienced Emperor Honglie, Emperor Chenglie, and Xianlie.
The fourth generation of Emperor Lie and Emperor Yinglie, if we take into account that he was already a Qianqi Colonel in the army during the era of Emperor Wu Lie, it is not an exaggeration to say that he was a veteran of the Five Dynasties. In the current Qingfeng Court, six out of ten civil servants
The seventh is that he came from the sect of Taishi Sima Danggui, and nine out of ten generals were once Tiezhen's generals. His prestige in the Qingfeng Army was so high that even the Yinglie Emperor could not compare to him. Therefore, although the Assistant King was
The prince of the empire, who holds great power, speaks without any scruples.
The Prince's face flushed, but facing Tie Zhen, he had no choice but to listen to Tie Zhen's explanation.
"Changyin County is called the county town, but it has always been an important town on Yangzhou Road, which is the main passage from Ningzhou to Meizhou and other places. Therefore, the scale of the city wall is close to that of Ningzhou Fucheng. Cheng Xianqing's 200,000 troops are stationed here, with their backs
Relying on the rear of the Holy Sect of Paradise, if we want to completely eliminate it, then we must at least dispatch double the troops with the same combat strength. And Cassimbas is now eyeing it in Nan County. If we transfer the elite here, then Kasimbas will
If Simbas takes the opportunity to attack our base camp, what should he do? And if he cannot eliminate Cheng Xianqing's 200,000 troops from the establishment, then he will soon be able to seduce another 200,000 troops. Now Yangzhou
Although there are few strong men on the road, it should be possible to replenish the 200,000 troops. But our attack on Cassimbas is different. The Northeastern Allied Forces and the Eastern Japanese Dynasty have now temporarily lost control of the river, and one of their soldiers will die.
One less. The main force of the Bliss Alliance is not the Bliss Holy Cult, but the Three Northeastern Kingdoms. If we attack the Northeastern Allied Forces, although they are allies, seeing the three most powerful Northeastern Kingdoms fighting against us, the Eastern Japanese Dynasty and the Bliss Saints
The teacher will definitely be very happy in his heart, at least he will not go to any lengths to rescue him. This is also where our opportunity lies."
"Why do we have to fight Cassimbas to waste it?" the auxiliary king said still puzzled.
"Facing a famous general of this caliber, Your Highness had better not overestimate your ability. In the past sixty years, I, Qingfeng, have been tricked by Cassimbas by countless generals. Therefore, the best way is to fight head-on step by step.
This may result in heavy losses, but in a head-on battle, the opponent's losses will not be much less than ours. And we now have the convenience of replenishing troops. At least until April, we have a stronger force than the Northeastern Allied Forces.
Logistical advantages. So, this is still very cost-effective."
After saying that, Tie Zhen ignored the auxiliary king and said to Li Tieming who was sitting down: "King Jingxi, commander of Li Tie's army, your mission is to lead the 200,000 Qinchuan army, including the red eyebrow army, to station in
This location." Tie Zhen pointed to the map on the wall and said, "This is Lutai. It is located between Changyin County and Nanjun County. Most of the areas on Yangzhou Road seem to be plains and hills with less undulating surface. However,
This is an accident. Lutai Mountain is the highest peak in Ningzhou. Although its relative height is only about a hundred meters, occupying this place can threaten the main road between Changyin and Nanjun. As long as you are stationed on the mountain,
Then no matter what kind of army it is, when passing by the main road at the foot of the mountain, it will be difficult to block the top-down impact of your cavalry. Since we are determined to fight a decisive battle with the Paradise Alliance, and we have chosen Cassimbas’
If the Northeastern Allied Forces are the first choice, then it is difficult to say that the Holy Church of Paradise will not send troops to rescue them out of dignity. If this is really the case, you must block the road to rescue the Holy Church of Paradise at all costs to ensure the safety of our southern line. If circumstances permit
, King Jingxi can dedicate part of his troops to the east of Ningzhou and wait for the opportunity."
"Yes." Li Tieming clasped his fists and said, "When will we set off?"
"Let's do it early tomorrow morning. It's already late today. If we mobilize our troops now, it will cause some unnecessary trouble. There are spies from the other party in Qingfeng, so you must keep this matter secret and no one is allowed to leak it."
"Commander Liu Nanshu, your mission is to find out in the shortest possible time where the Japanese pirates who disappeared on the East China Sea have gone. After a series of battles, the number of the Japanese navy in the East has dropped to about 160,000. And now
The opponent's navy has gathered more than 100,000 troops near the mouth of the river. In addition, the navy is stationed on major islands and the mainland. Now their navy can no longer draw out mobile forces. Therefore, the decrease in Japanese pirate activities is probably related to this.
The total number of Japanese pirates in the East China Sea and South China Sea is about 50,000. You should understand that the combat effectiveness of 50,000 Japanese pirates is not trivial, not to mention their warship transportation capabilities. With the help of these 50,000 Japanese pirates, they can even defeat more than 50,000 Japanese pirates.
One hundred thousand troops can be transported at will to any port via waterways."
"Yes." Although Liu Nanshu was a prince, his tone was still very respectful when facing the old man.
"Commander He Huairen, your mission is to continue to block the Dahe defense line. The Dongwa Navy easily gave up the Dahe defense line, and there must be an ulterior motive. But now we have no choice, even if they have dug a trap, for the sake of the empire
, we are duty-bound for the millions of people in China. The key to destroying Cassimbas's Northeastern Allied Forces is to block the opponent's reinforcements. What you have to do now is to block the river defense line as much as possible while
Your navy is brought near the mouth of the river to monitor the Eastern Japanese navy and prevent it from transporting the Northeastern Allied Forces southward from Youyun Sixteen Prefectures by sea."
"My subordinates must go all out. Unless my subordinates die in battle, the Eastern Japanese Navy will never set foot on the river." He Huairen said with determination. He and Tiezhen were on the same level in terms of official titles, but Tiezhen's qualifications were not his at all.
Comparable. Of course, the main reason is his general knowledge and respect for the elderly.
"Now, I will talk about the specific combat arrangements. It has been half a month since we arrived in Rihua County. Through the small-scale competition during this period, we have guessed the details of the Paradise Alliance and the true combat effectiveness of their soldiers.
Although I dare not say that I have a 100% chance of winning this battle, I still have a 60-70% chance." Tie Zhen encouraged his morale and then said: "Early tomorrow morning, all the ministries will quickly gather to remove King Jingxi's 200,000 Qin soldiers.
Sichuan Army, we still have nearly 800,000 troops. Jingbeigong, you lead your 100,000 Hetao elites and Princess Qingcheng's 50,000 cavalry as the southern front group. Your opponent is the Jin Zongbiao tribe in Haixi. The Haixi Army
There are about 120,000 people, half of which are cavalry and infantry. With the combat effectiveness of the Hetao Army and the Scarlet Cavalry, I believe you are qualified for this task. However, Futabian Wenwen and the 14th Guards have already led 150,000 Eastern Japanese soldiers to Jin Zongbiao.
About thirty miles to the east, you may face reinforcements from the Eastern Japanese Army. Do you have any ideas? If there are difficulties, the Duke can raise them now."
