Xin Jiao continued to read: "The Iron Eagle Alliance troops stationed troops outside Yumen Pass. The border commander saw that they had no intention of attacking the city, so he left Wu Xiaolangjun to respond to the enemy. He led 60,000 new soldiers and Situ Lie's 50,000 troops at Hebao
Guan met Yelu Chixian's Mandan army and won a small victory. Yelu Chixian retreated into Wuzhou City."
"The more Yelu Canghai bluffs like this, the more I think they will do something. But there are 100,000 new soldiers on the Hetao side. I think they should be able to cope with the normal situation." Haotian said worriedly.
"According to your order, my husband and the military advisor have compiled a strategic plan for the northwest offensive. The first step is to send a large number of cavalry to the outside of the Great Wall and pull out all Bansheng City in the southern part of the prairie. These Bansheng are all aliens outside the Great Wall.
They are not only helping the foreign tribes outside the Great Wall to burn, kill and plunder our people, but they are also the main food suppliers for the three tribes in the northwest. As long as they can be completely eradicated, the three tribes in the northwest will definitely be unable to feed so many people on the grassland.
Civil strife broke out due to the population. However, since our main cavalry in Hetao are in the southeast, sir, we have postponed the plan until we return to Hetao. However, due to the early intelligence arrangements, Guanying, the commander of the Soul Eater, has personally returned to Hetao to make arrangements.
.”
"Continue." Haotian was noncommittal. This matter will be part of the future northwest prairie strategy, but now he is unable to do anything, so he can only prepare for a rainy day.
"Except for the Keshui tribe in southern Yunnan, the other four tribes colluded with the Jinhua Dynasty. Even if the Song family stationed an army again, it would be of no avail. The Jinhua Dynasty had amassed an army of 150,000 troops south of Jingzhou and Lizhou. Pu Zhicheng
Personally led. The Song family's 100,000-strong army has retreated to the Yizhou area in the north. In addition, the Bai'er Army, led by Song Junlin, has arrived in Yuzhou, and its movement is unknown."
Haotian's brows furrowed into an inverted figure: "The Song family has always been good at calculations. Could it be that they are preparing to go to war with Jinhua to compete for the control of the five tribes in southern Yunnan? But if this is really the case, then what happened to them in the first place?
Why are we withdrawing from the Jingzhou and Lizhou areas? Wouldn't it be better to directly send troops for reinforcements?"
Luo Xiang pondered for a moment: "The Song family has long been disobedient, and it is most obvious among our four vassals. The only places where there is money to be made on the southern Yunnan Road are Yingzhou and Yizhou in the north. However, as early as
More than ten years ago, these two states had fallen into the hands of the Song family. The five ethnic groups in southern Yunnan were unruly, but Sha Dan and others only thought about treason and self-reliance all day long. The Song family originally thought they could suppress the five ethnic groups in southern Yunnan.
In their hands, but the situation was different from what they thought, so some time ago there was some friction between the Song family and the five tribes in southern Yunnan. To occupy southern Yunnan, the only possibility was to send troops to Dahu. However, although Duke Jingnan was stretched thin,
But the might of a famous general is not so easy to provoke. My subordinates are also a little confused."
Xuanji interjected: "I think there is one thing we should pay attention to. The total strength of the Song family is now as high as 400,000, which is similar to that of Qinchuan, and is more than a little stronger than Huaishui's 250,000 army. However, in the past few years,
Ever since the White-Er Army collapsed on Dahu Road, the Song family has shrunk across the board. But now they are mobilizing troops on a large scale. It is obvious that they have a plan. However, their subordinates are very puzzled. They don't know what benefits the Song family actually wants.
I want to fight head-on with the Jinhua Dynasty and the five ethnic groups in southern Yunnan."
Qiu Mu said with a smile: "The Song family has always been good at being cunning and adding insult to injury. Of course, he will bite anyone who is weak around him."
Haotian smiled and nodded: "Qiu Mu is right, well, Qiu Mu deserves to be my girls' middle school..." At this point, Haotian's face changed. Luo Xiang and Xuanji were thinking about the problem, and heard Haotian
His voice stopped suddenly, and he couldn't help but look at Haotian curiously.
Haotian took a deep breath and said with a trembling voice: "Qin Chuan?"
"Qin Chuan? What's wrong with Qin Chuan?" Luo Xiang asked doubtfully, but as soon as he said the words, his face changed, and a cold sweat suddenly appeared in his vest.
Xuanji also raised his head, looked at Haotian and Luo Xiang, smiled bitterly and said: "Probably not, we are born from the same roots, so why rush each other? Although they are already on the same level, I don't think they dare to risk the world.
We must attack Qinchuan Road openly."
Haotian also wiped the cold sweat from his face and said in a deep voice: "Quick, military advisor, first tell me about the military arrangements of Qinchuan and Yizhou."
Xuanji's expression was also very ugly: "There are a total of 400,000 troops on Yizhou Road, 80,000 of which are located on the south side of Jianmen Pass and Yinping Ancient Road. There are about 60,000 soldiers in the west near the Bloody Plateau, and the capital Yangzhou has 60,000 soldiers. The rest
The main force of the 200,000-strong Bai'er Army has moved to the vicinity of Baidi City in Yuzhou. This is the base camp of the Song family's navy, which gathers all 20,000 of the Song family's navy. The remaining 100,000-strong army is located northeast of South Dian Road.
Uiju area.”
After swallowing his saliva, Xuanji continued: "The total number of troops on Qinchuan Road is around 400,000, of which 200,000 are led by Li Tieming, who are now in the south of Ruzhou. The 50,000 soldiers, led by General Li Xuancheng, have entered Qiuzhou. Only 50,000 soldiers are left in Qiuzhou.
Of the 150,000 troops, 50,000 are stationed at the Yinfeng Castle, 50,000 are stationed at the capital Ezhou, 30,000 are stationed in Hezhou, and 20,000 are stationed in Xiangzhou. The 30,000 navy is currently in the Holy Capital of Tiandu and cannot rush back to Qinchuan in a short time.
"
Haotian shouted flatly: "First inform King Jingxi of this possible news so that he can be mentally prepared. All 370,000 troops in Hetao will be on heightened alert. Military advisor, if there is any sign that King Jingxi's army will withdraw from the battlefield,
, our 200,000-strong army from the Hetao base camp will attack immediately, and we must not allow the Three Northeastern Kingdoms and the Holy Sect of Paradise to merge!"
Haotian's report was still too late. Just as they were judging the movements of Yizhou's army, Song Junlin and Song family veteran Song Lingyun had already led an army of 200,000 to the east suddenly, attacking Li Fangcheng's army of 30,000 in Hezhou from both sides.
Although Li Fangcheng was also a rising star in the Qinchuan army, he committed suicide after holding on to Hezhou for two days against a well-prepared 200,000 Song family army with an army of 30,000. This was the second time that Hezhou was captured in two years. Li Fangcheng
He was also the second senior general Qin Chuan died in battle.
The main force of the Qinchuan army has left the country, and brothers Li Tieming and Li Tiezhan are leading an army of 200,000 to confront Cheng Xianqing's 200,000 elite troops in the Ruzhou area. Li Fengcheng's 30,000 naval divisions are assisting in the defense of Tiandu Shengjing to prevent the Japanese invasion from the east.
A sneak attack by the division and the Holy Sect of Paradise. Li Xuancheng’s 50,000 troops are in Qiuzhou, Li Xiaomo is currently in Tiandu Shengjing, and Li Xiaoran is in Qinchuan, but he is in the Yinfeng Castle in the north. Among the generals who stayed in Qinchuan
, the only one who can be considered a veteran is Li Tiehe, who returned from the front line due to injury some time ago to recuperate.
Li Fangcheng's desperate resistance not only caused nearly 50,000 casualties to the Song family's army, but more importantly, gave the Qinchuan Li family an opportunity to gather troops. Xiangzhou's 20,000-strong army marched westward under the leadership of general Li Bicheng
, relying on the geographical advantage in the western area of Xiangzhou, he blocked the 50,000-strong army of the Song family from the Yangzhou defense line. Li Tiehe decisively took over the command of the 50,000-strong army of Ezhou, and stationed the entire army in Xixiang County, the southernmost part of Xiangzhou, where
Located at the junction of Xiangzhou, Hezhou and Changzhou, blocking this place also blocked the way for the Yizhou army to go north. Li Xiaoran, after careful choice, handed over the defense of Yinfeng Castle to
After Li Tiehe and Song Junlin fought in Xixiang for a day and night, they rushed to Xixiang and contained the Song family's offensive.
Song Junlin obviously knew that he could not break through the defense lines of Li Tiehe and Li Xiaoran for the time being. The 80,000 soldiers of the Bai'er Army were facing off against the Li family's army at a distance, while the remaining 60,000 soldiers, led by Song Lingyun, swept through Qinchuan.
In Hezhou and Changzhou in the south, the Qinchuan army has long been no longer stationed here, so Song Lingyun is naturally unstoppable.
"Pfft!" Li Tieming spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the bright red blood sprayed on the face of Li Tiezhan next to him. However, Li Tiezhan had no time to wipe the blood off his face, and quickly supported his elder brother and shouted loudly: "Brother, elder brother
, be calm!”
Li Tieming's face turned pale, he took a deep breath, tried his best to stabilize his mind, and then said: "I know this, the second son, the Song family, did an amazing job!"
After all, Li Tiezhan was purely a soldier, and his psychological quality was much better than that of Li Tieming. He said in a deep voice: "Brother, it's useless to say anything now. The fourth child and Xiao Ran have temporarily blocked the Song family's northward path, but
Hezhou and Changzhou have fallen into the hands of the Song family, what we need to do now is how to recruit troops to regain the lost territory."
Li Tieming nodded: "Xiao Mo, where is Xiao Mo?"
"Xiao Mo is currently in the Holy Capital of Tiandu. He asked me to tell you that he is now actively lobbying Emperor Zhongxing and working hard to build an army to prepare for the very possible counterattack of the Holy Sect of Paradise." Li Tiezhan opened his mouth and said.
Li Tieming gave a bitter smile: "Emperor Zhongxing? What he hopes most now is that the Li family and the Song family will fight to the death, and he will send reinforcements? As for Xiao Mo, now he can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Song Zhengfeng, he
This is really daring, I have underestimated him before. Second brother, you immediately lead the Red Eyebrow Army back to Qinchuan overnight, and I will lead the remaining 100,000 troops to cut off your rear."
Li Tiezhan said worriedly: "Brother, I'm afraid the Holy Sect will not let us leave so easily. If I take away the Red Eyebrow Army, then facing Zhu Zhao and Cheng Xianqing's 300,000 troops, you will only have 100,000
The strength of the troops is probably more serious than bad."
Li Tieming shouted flatly: "Second brother, this is not the time for mother-in-law and mother-in-law. Since Hetao did not take the Yinfeng Castle while Xiao Ran's army was moving south, it means that Hetao will never add insult to injury. Haotian has always been a passionate person who takes the overall situation into consideration.
, I will send someone to contact him at that time, hoping that he can help us relieve the pressure on Cheng Xianqing. As long as Cheng Xianqing's 200,000 troops can be contained, then only Zhu Zhao's army can't even think of eating our 100,000 troops. Since
The imperial court refuses to send troops to help us defend Qinchuan, so we in Qinchuan have no obligation to help them resist the Holy Sect of Paradise. Notify Xuancheng of Qiuzhou that the entire army will return to Qinchuan and go to Xiangzhou to help us, which will surely block the Yangzhou side of Yizhou.
There is no need to call back the army. Fengcheng's navy will have no effect if he goes back now. Song Zhengfeng actually dared to collude with the Jinhua Dynasty and put on a show for me, Li Tieming! I want him to know that I, Qin Chuan, am not a fuel-efficient lamp.
I don’t know when I will be able to go back, Qin Chuan, I will leave everything to you!"
Li Tiezhan was not a sloppy master, and he no longer hesitated immediately. After a little preparation, he led the 100,000 Red Eyebrow Legion soldiers on the road home. Li Tieming was still pale, but slowly
Putting on his own armor, this battle may not be easy.
When Haotian learned that the Yizhou army had raided Qinchuan, his face suddenly turned pale. Luo Xiang and Xuanji were also dumbfounded. No one thought that the Song family would dare to risk the world's disapproval and send troops to Qinchuan. Although the Song family had already
They had already broken up with the empire, but they never expected that the Song family would be so heartbroken and crazy that they would ignore the national justice and openly lead an army to attack the Li family's territory in Qinchuan. Although several people had already guessed, they were still dumbfounded.
"Soul Eater! What is Guanying's Soul Eater doing! Why do things like this happen again and again!" Haotian was furious and shouted loudly in his camp.
Guanying had returned to Hetao some time ago, and the other commanders were also performing their respective duties. Luo Xiang also gave this information to Haotian, so Haotian didn't even have anyone to vent to.
Luo Xiang said in a deep voice: "Lord, calm down! Guanying's Soul Eater is not to blame for this matter."
Haotian's face looked a little ferocious: "Why?"
"The establishment of an intelligence system is not something that happens in a day or two. It takes up to two years to train a qualified soldier, but it takes at least ten years to train an excellent intelligence officer, especially one who can penetrate the opponent's senior management. Soul Eater was established
The time is only three years. Although Tianwu Galaxy has the previous intelligence system as a foundation, due to the different focus of Tianwu Galaxy and ours, and years of shrinkage, there is only a foundation left. Guanying can bring Soul Eater to this
The level is already something to be proud of. If you look at what happened this time, neither the imperial court's Cai Feng nor the Li family's Wa Quan in Qinchuan and Huaishui's Zhang family's blast have received any news. After all, the Song family's secret
Yong is not a vegetarian." Luo Xiang is not trying to excuse Guan Ying, but it is indeed the case. In fact, Guan Ying also has a good reputation in Hetao's military and political prescriptions, but because of his inherent deficiencies, he is naturally inferior in some aspects.
It's not as good as Caifeng Waquan's hundreds of years old intelligence system.
Although Haotian was furious, he was still able to listen to Luo Xiang's advice. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "We have underestimated Song Zhengfeng after all. We originally thought he was a simple treacherous, cunning and calculating person. Unexpectedly,
He was so bold that he colluded with foreigners regardless of national justice. He secretly negotiated peace with Pu Zhicheng and decisively abandoned the three states south of the South Yunnan Road. The army and the Jinhua Army made such a scene. Okay! Sir, how many troops do we have in the Yinfeng Mountains and the Yinping Ancient Road?
?”
"Forty thousand, including 20,000 each in Jianmen Pass and Yinping Ancient Road. However, Xiangcheng just sent 40,000 new troops here some time ago. Therefore, Li Xiao has a total force of about 80,000. Compared with the Song family's troops in these two places,
The strength of the troops is similar. However, I don't think the combat effectiveness of our 80,000-strong army can be compared with the Song family's elite. Moreover, the Song family occupies a favorable location. Although we have more than enough to protect ourselves, we are definitely not enough to attack." Luo Xiang said in a deep voice.
Xuanji also opened his mouth and said: "My lord, the Song family's raid on Qinchuan was probably expected by Kasimbas. If this is really the case, then the Mandan army on the other side of Shazhou and the Iron Eagle Qiuming alliance outside the Great Wall will definitely
We will not sit idly by. Although there are 350,000 troops in our territory, there are only 50,000 reserve troops stationed in the Hetao. Therefore, my subordinates believe that we should not participate in the fight between the Song and Li families now."
Luo Xiang also nodded and said: "My lord, the Li family still has some foundation. Although the Song family has the upper hand, Li Tieming is very cunning, and the outcome is still between 50 and 50. What we should worry about now is that Li Tieming's 20
The 10,000-strong army will inevitably retreat slowly back to Qinchuan. In this way, Cheng Xianqing's 200,000 Bliss elite and Zhu Zhao's army will be freed. Kasimbas is indeed experienced, and this side should be our defense."
