Chapter 353: The wind blows in the river [Lifting the ban]
The destruction of the Jiaolong Legion had an extremely huge impact on the Qingfeng Empire. In the previous Xijiang defense line, because of the existence of the Jiaolong Legion, Jinhua Mitsukoshi’s small boats that could not take action could not be put on the stage. Because of this, Jingnan Gong Ouyang Jingzhong
With only less than 200,000 troops, he can defend the potential defense line of Dahu Road. However, now, Ouyang Jingzhong has to deploy a large number of troops to defend the Xijiang defense line, and also defend the Song family and Dongjia on Yizhou Road with ulterior motives to the west.
The Minghui Department of the Holy Bliss Sect looks with eager eyes.
Ouyang Jingzhong made a prompt decision and ordered all 100,000 reserve soldiers to be regularized to prepare for possible emergencies in the surrounding area. Under such circumstances, Emperor Zhongxing could no longer mobilize a single soldier from Dahu Road. Moreover, in order to relieve the pressure on Dahu Road,
To attract the attention of the Holy Sect of Paradise, Tiandu Shengjing must send troops to Yangzhou Road together with the Qinchuan, Li, Huai, and Zhang families as soon as possible.
After Dugu learned that the entire Jiaolong Army had been wiped out and that Liu Bi had died for his country, he just sighed. Unexpectedly, after saying goodbye in a hurry at the ferry that day, he would never see this rising star of the Imperial Navy again. Thinking of Liu Bi
On that day when he personally commanded 20,000 navy troops to assist his tens of thousands of troops to withdraw from Anyue and cross the Xijiang River, Dugu closed his eyes slightly. That heroic and heroic man would forever become an eternal scenery in his memory.
On the second day after the entire Jiaolong Army was annihilated, Emperor Zhongxing finally began to counterattack the Holy Sect at the strong request of Liu Nanqiu, Minister of War, and others. As soon as the imperial army moved, Zhang Cangxiong and Li Tieming, who had received Emperor Zhongxing's promise, naturally
He would not sit back and watch. Two months later, the war in the southeast started again. And on the first day when Emperor Zhongxing announced the counterattack, Haotian's hometown, Hetao No. 3 Road, was also filled with smoke.
In early October 622, under the lobbying of Mandan Prime Minister Yelu Canghai, the heroes outside the Great Wall began to launch a series of attacks on the thousands-mile defense line of Hetao.
The war first broke out at Jiayuguan on Anxi Road. Under the leadership of the famous Sashan commander Xibu Jiasha, the 150,000 Sashan army and 50,000 soldiers from the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions raided Jiayuguan. However, the commander-in-chief of Jiayuguan, Chun Jian,
Xibu Gaza's sneak attack did not achieve any results. On the contrary, he suffered a bloody blow under the complete fortifications and tall city walls of Jiayuguan.
Almost at the same time, Qiu Ming Iron Eagle and Uma each sent 50,000 troops to attack Yumen Pass. Mandan Yelv Chixian's 150,000 troops once again pressed Shazhou from the direction of Wuzhou. At this time, there were only 50,000 troops from Situ Lie in the Shazhou area.
The army and Wuxiaolangjun had just established 50,000 recruits for four months. Fortunately, Soul Eater's intelligence system had been keeping a close eye on the outside of the Great Wall. Therefore, before the army outside the Great Wall arrived, the Hetao had already received the news. It was originally in charge.
Bian Zhongxing of Yanzhou rushed to Yumen Pass alone and led Wu Xiaolangjun's 50,000 new troops to garrison the dangerous pass. Situ Lie and his deputy Wang Xian led all 50,000 troops to Hebaoguan to compete with Yelu.
Chi Xian's 150,000-strong army.
In the Jingbei Palace of Yanzhou, Tianyi held his youngest son Hao Jing and sat quietly next to Chu Xiangcheng, his eyebrows furrowed, obviously worried about the current war situation.
"General Jiayuguan Spring Sword Appreciation has 60,000 elite troops under his command, the frontier commander leads 50,000 new troops to garrison Yumen Pass, General Situ has 50,000 troops to garrison Hebaoguan, and General Li Xiao and his deputy Fu Yang have 40,000 troops to garrison Jianmen Pass and Yinping Ancient Road respectively.
In the north, the 50,000-strong reserve force of General Lanuo and General Zhu Xigao has arrived at Fenglin Ferry, and is expected to arrive in the Shazhou Fucheng area tomorrow afternoon. The 150,000-strong Bloody Plateau elite led by General Yao Qiang and Elder Si Yulianjie have already increased their numbers.
Be on alert and be ready at any time to deal with possible raids from the Luoche Dynasty and the Sashan Dynasty." Fu Ruoshui said solemnly.
Tianyi said in a deep voice: "Uncle, our military strength is a bit weak. Now Llano and Zhu Xigao have led our last 50,000 total reserve troops to go north to Shazhou. Now there is no reserve force in the Hetao Third Road. Hukou
There are still ten thousand of our navy patrolling the ferry, but Yinfeng Castle does not have any troops. Moreover, the troops at Jianmen Pass and Yinping Ancient Road are too few. If the Song family adds insult to injury, our territory is very likely to
It will be cut into two pieces."
Chu Xiangcheng said without changing his expression: "Mother, do you mean to prepare to expand the army again?"
Tianyi nodded: "Our defense line is too long, and no matter which point is breached, it may lead to the collapse of the whole situation. The total number of troops left behind is only 250,000, and now the enemy is advancing across the board. We cannot lose.
I just don’t know how much military expansion the Loop can bear now?”
Chu Xiangcheng twitched his long beard: "After the Taihang Battle, we added 50,000 soldiers. Including battle losses, we consumed 100,000 reserve soldiers. A few days ago, another 70,000 soldiers were recruited.
Ten thousand reserve soldiers went south to join the Lord's army. Now, our reserve soldiers have been almost exhausted."
Fu Ruoshui blinked her beautiful eyes, hugged Hao Jin tighter in her arms, hesitated and said, "Sister, if it's possible, our Gaoli..."
Tianyi said decisively: "No, we will discuss the matter of Gaoli later."
God's will is not completely incompetent in military affairs. In fact, during the period when Haotian first launched his army, God's will always appeared in the form of a soldier. Before that, God's will always wore military uniforms and followed Haotian to train in the military camp. Therefore,
, she also has different plans for the chess piece of Goryeo. Now Goryeo and Hetao are still separated by Youyun Sixteen Provinces. Even if Goryeo is interested, it can only contain Haixi's troops and suppress the Eastern Japanese Navy.
But for Tianyi, Chu Xiangcheng and others, they don't just want this. Good steel must be used on the blade.
Fu Ruoshui mustered up his courage and said, "Sister, Mr. Chu, we in Korea sincerely hope to join the Hetao."
Chu Xiangcheng pondered for a moment and looked at Tianyi. Tianyi frowned. She believed in Goryeo's sincerity. Among the seven vassal states of Qingfeng, Goryeo is the only one who is still honest and has hope for China. But even if
Hetao did not remember the shame of the annihilation of the 500,000-strong army, but Shanhaiguan? This is an eternal pain in the hearts of the people of China.
Tianyi thought for a while and then opened his mouth and said: "Ruoshui, if eldest sister doesn't give you an answer today, it would be unreasonable. But my husband is not here, so eldest sister can only give you this guarantee. We have clear grudges in Hetao, and we will never let Zhenxin follow.
My friends will be disappointed, but I will be worthy of the people of the Celestial Empire. I will discuss the rest with my husband after eldest sister."
"Yes, eldest sister." Fu Ruoshui nodded and said, feeling relieved in her heart. Although the meaning of God's will was unknown, it was already a huge breakthrough compared to before. She firmly believed that as long as Gaoli was loyal to Hetao, then Hetao would never
Forget their friendship. Of course, the price to pay is still indispensable.
After God's will said this, he put Gao Li aside and said to Chu Xiangcheng: "Uncle, originally we estimated that your husband's army would return to Hetao before the end of this year, but the late emperor died in the battle and the situation in the southeast has changed.
changes, so the time has to be postponed a little later. However, my husband has explained to me that when the Northeastern Allied Forces in Henan are eradicated, he will lead the army back to Hetao as soon as possible to take the opportunity to regain the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun. According to my concubine,
It seems that my husband will be back at this time next year, and he will send troops to Youyun Sixteen Prefectures in the spring of the year after next. By then we will face more than a million troops from the three Northeastern countries, so it is inevitable to expand the army. "
Chu Xiangcheng was overjoyed and immediately said with a smile: "Mother, do you mean that we need to prepare to regain the Sixteenth Province of Youyun now?"
Tianyi nodded: "Exactly. I can't control Lu Concubine in the future, but no matter what happens, I have to wait until I get the Sixteenth Province of Youyun in my hands first and completely control the Great Wall defense line."
"That day, Du Shengjing?" Chu Xiangcheng asked tentatively.
A stern look flashed in Tianyi's eyes: "How can we not avenge our parents?"
Chu Xiangcheng was shocked. This was the first time in several years that he had seen Tianyi show such strong murderous intent. However, he wanted to know how Tianyi knew about this matter.
But no matter what, God's words still made him uncontrollably happy. He slapped the table and said with a smile: "Mother, I was just waiting for your words. In this case, the 50,000 soldiers led by Lano and Zhu Xigao temporarily stopped.
Next, 30,000 soldiers will be led by Lano to go south to defend the Yinfeng Castle area. Zhu Xigao will lead 20,000 soldiers to garrison at Hukou Ferry. In addition, his subordinates will prepare all rosters and strategic materials for the 100,000-strong army expansion within three days. Within five days,
Pull the team together inside."
God smiled in his heart, uncle, I know you have been prepared for this.
"Commander, the total number of enemy troops attacking this time is 150,000, with Tyumen Iron Eagle and Mandan each having 50,000 troops. The generals of the Baijing are Duvel, and the Iron Eagles are Dodi, Hengshi Hassan's old subordinate, and Wu
The Ma Dynasty is one of the two generals of the two pillar kingdoms." Guan Zhichun said slowly as the Yumen closed and faced the strong wind mixed with dust and sand in the sky.
As usual, Bian Chongxing did not wear a military uniform. Among all the generals in Hetao, Bian Chongxing was the only one who never wore armor on the battlefield. It was not because of his great martial arts, but because he was too thin, even the smallest
No.'s armor could not be put on. Therefore, unless Haotian and Tianyi came to inspect, Bian Zhongxing would never put on the armor, but he took it off as soon as the two turned their backs. Later, Tianyi and others
I also knew his hobbies, so his armor was thrown away without knowing where.
It's not the time for the northwest wind to pick up yet, but there is still a hint of chill in the strong wind, and the tiny grains of sand hitting the face still make people feel a faint pain. Except for Tang Jian, all the five young men turned sideways.
He has a side face, but Bian Zhongxing doesn't care. In those years when he was stationed at the Northeast Great Wall defense line, which year was he not like this? Only his empty left sleeve fluttered in the wind, forming his unique identity symbol.
"Tell me, what is the purpose of Yelv Canghai's efforts in organizing this coalition?" Bian Zhongxing asked calmly.
The five young men were silent, but all of them were bowing their heads in deep thought.
Bian Zhongxing continued: "Although this attack was not within our expectations, it does not pose any threat to us at all. Over at Jiayuguan, there are 60,000 soldiers led by Chunjian Shang. As long as there is no traitor, we can't afford it."
During the civil strife, even if there were 200,000 troops, they could not win it within ten days and a half. On the side of the Song family on Yizhou Road, Jinhua was active in southern Yunnan. The Song family had already mobilized 150,000 soldiers to enter southern Yunnan.
Under this situation, they will not easily come to trouble us in the Hetao. The Li family of Qinchuan is our only decent ally now. Their army of 200,000 is still on Yuzhou Road, even if Yinfeng Castle does not have a single soldier.
Although stationed there, Li Xiaoran did not dare to go any further north. The only way to go was from Shazhou. However, the 50,000-strong army blocked the Hebao Pass and basically blocked the way for Mandan to move westward. But this commander only needs to
Standing behind the closed Jade Gate, even if there are only 10,000 soldiers in hand, it is enough to intimidate the Iron Eagle Coalition. Tell me, what is their purpose this time?"
Guan Zhichun replied in a deep voice: "The general also doesn't understand that now is not the right time for a war. In more than a month, winter will enter outside the Great Wall. When the snowstorm comes, Iron Eagle Qiu Ming will inevitably withdraw its troops. And the Mandan
Logistics supplies and troop deployment will also be inconvenient. As for Jiayuguan, Sashan has already hit a wall. A famous commander in Xibu Gaza, he will not fail to understand that such a simple attack is ineffective. Therefore, the general believes that,
I’m afraid there may be a mystery here.”
Bian Zhongxing smiled slightly: "Two years ago, around this time, our 200,000-strong army in Hetao was stationed at Jianmen Pass. Everyone thought that we were preparing to take revenge for the original attack. Even the Tai Tai at that time
Master Sima Angelica personally came to mediate. Later, did you know?"
Tang Jian replied in a deep voice: "At that time, my lord, the city defense army led by General Li Xiao used a plan to cross the sky and cross the sea to hide the sight of all forces. However, the army was divided into two groups, sneak attack on Jiayu Pass along the way, Yumen Pass along the way, and finally the two armies
Attacked from east to west, and finally recovered the Second Northwest Road."
Bian Chongxing nodded.
Guan Zhijun slapped his head and said happily: "Commander, you mean that Yelu Canghai is hiding their military operations? However, the troop mobilization in the southwest Mandan and Taihang Road areas are all under our surveillance.
, how did they plot to trick us?"
Bian Zhongxing laughed: "You can teach me, I can teach you. However, your vision is still a bit narrow. You can only see the situation on the third road of Hetao, but you can't look at the overall situation. Have you forgotten that the lord's army is still on Yuzhou Road?
Area, where are there more than 200,000 troops from the three Northeastern countries?"
"Are they planning to take advantage of the lord? Commander Bian, we should report it to the lord immediately!" Dou Guangye said quickly.
Bian Zhongxing smiled again: "Don't worry, my lord has Mr. Luo, the military advisor and the Blood Commander on his side. Even if Kasimbas takes action himself, the outcome will be between four and six. You guys, please tell me.
Tell me, why did Sashan, the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, Tie Ying Qiu Ming, and Uma send troops together with Mandan? What can be seen from this."
