"Sir, has the imperial court sent food and other logistics materials?" Xuanji asked after taking a sip. The Hetao army is currently stationed in the suburbs of Shanyin County, Xuzhou, and for the convenience of discussions, Haotian and other high-level officials are stationed there.
Among the county towns. Since Xuzhou City is close to the river and is located at the junction of the spheres of influence of Qingfeng Navy and Dongwa Navy, Tiezhen only sent troops to guard it. Most of the Qingfeng senior officials on Yuzhou Road gathered in Xuzhou, the largest area outside Xuzhou City.
In the prosperous Shanyin County, Luo Xiang has always been in charge of the army's food and fodder, so this is the mystery.
Luo Xiang nodded: "It has been sent here, and General Xiang personally escorted it here. General Xiang is straightforward and loyal, but it is a pity that such a man is so old that he has not changed. Haha, the court has to appease us now, although for
We are still on guard, but on the surface we have to make an appearance of reuse. Now the strength of the imperial court and the three major aristocratic families is no longer enough to cope with the current situation. If we continue to sit back and watch, their defenses will only become more vulnerable.
A hundred things."
Xuanji's eyebrows furrowed: "The imperial court is now going all out, and it can be said that it has taken out all the last assets. However, although the three major families are also expanding their armies, they still retain potential. Yizhou Road
Needless to say, the Song family now has more than 400,000 troops, but the army refuses to advance even half a step eastward. Especially Song Junlin, who is treacherous and short-sighted. In order to preserve his strength, he gave up the battle of Luzhou.
Position. If Duke Jingnan had not made a decisive decision, Dahu Road would have been in flames now. It only hurt the fifteen million people on Jiangnan Road. To ignore the common people in the world because of the selfishness of one family is really the scum of the country."
"There are very few people in the world who are as brave and loyal as our lord who only serve the common people." Luo Xiang said with a smile: "The Song family is not something to be afraid of. Among the three major families, the only one who can really cause us some trouble is Qinchuan Road.
It's just the Li family. The combat effectiveness of the Li family's army in Qinchuan should be ranked first among the three major families. However, judging from the joint operations that day, the combat effectiveness of the Li family's army is far inferior to that of our Hetao headquarters. It is probably equal to us.
The second-rate troops left behind in Hetao are similar. Although the combat effectiveness of the Red Eyebrow Army is slightly better than the 70,000 soldiers led by Li Xiaomo that day, it is still not as good as the elite troops we sent south this time. Besides, in addition to Li Tiezhan and Li Xiaomo's uncle and nephew, the Li family has
As well as Li Xiaoran who guards Yinfeng Castle, there is no general who can take charge of his own role. And Li Xiaomo, with just a show of respect, can completely block his offensive. As for Li Xiaoran's Yinfeng Castle, I have never taken it to heart.
Come on, haha.”
Xuanji naturally understood why Luo Xiang was so confident about Yinfeng Castle, but he didn't say anything. After all, that was the best way.
After Luo Xiang laughed, he continued: "On Yizhou Road, except for the Bai'er Army, there is nothing to fear. The Song family is cunning, and neither Song Zhengfeng nor his son has great talents. Moreover, the Song family does not have good enough military generals.
, only Song Zhengyu can still be on the stage. But his commanding skills are either I despise intentionally or he is probably on par with Li Xiao, Situ Lie and others, and cannot be compared with the Blood Commander and others. Moreover, the Song family is xenophobic and jealous.
Talent, otherwise Du Shuai would not have resolutely joined me in the Loop. Haha, Du Shuai originally came from the White Ear Legion, and is naturally very familiar with the White Ear Legion. As long as the White Ear Legion can be defeated, that will basically be enough.
It just broke the backbone of the Song family. This was a particularly huge blow to the Song family and the Qinchuan soldiers. Moreover, now that we control the Bloody Plateau, if the Scarlet Clan's cavalry swoops down from above, then even the White Ear Legion will
I’m afraid it will be difficult to resist.”
"Someone always thinks that the key lies with the Li family." Xuanji sighed and said: "Although Zhang Cangxiong can be regarded as a tycoon, Zhang Jishi is really too weak, and the direct princess has already married the lord. After losing
After Shouzhou and Raozhou on the Huai River, the strength of the Zhang family has been weakened a lot. Even if they can regain the two eastern states in the future, the Zhang family will not have the ability to conquer the world. However, the navy and food supply of the Huai River are too limited.
This makes people jealous. Should we use some means to take them in together? But the Li family must not be underestimated. Li Tieming is cunning and calculating. With his painstaking efforts, the Li family's current strength is probably almost the same as that of the imperial court.
However, the environment of the Li family is now far better than that of the imperial court. Li Tiezhan is also a battle-hardened man, and he became famous with Jingnan Duke Ouyang Jingzhong and others for a while. Li Xiaoran is young and mature, and has the demeanor of a general. Li Xiaomo is even called
An outstanding talent who is the first of the top ten heroes. Although the three major families have fallen into decay, the Li family has actually taken on a new vitality in the hands of Li Tieming. Now the Li family has expanded its army by 400,000. If he wants, Li Tieming can add more at any time.
One hundred thousand troops. With Qinchuan Road's century-old accumulation, it must be able to support such a huge expenditure. Sir, don't forget that Qinchuan Road organizes young adults to conduct paramilitary training for two months every year during the slack season. As long as
Li Tieming gives an order, and these young men can immediately form an army with high combat effectiveness."
Luo Xiang nodded: "What the military advisor said is absolutely true. I thought a little improperly. The Li family is indeed a strong person, and Li Xiaomo is indeed a talent. If one day we both face each other on the battlefield, we will be able to win.
, but the loss will not be too small. If necessary, I don’t mind using some special means to deal with him."
Xuanji shook his head: "My lord will never agree. My lord is a real soldier. In his opinion, famous generals should die on the battlefield instead of dying in conspiracy. In the end, my lord is not enough."
Mature, what he longs for is to defeat the enemy in an upright manner on the battlefield, and he doesn't care even if it costs him his life."
Luo Xiang sighed softly, why didn't he understand? Haotian was an upright person and had always disdained the use of these conspiracies and tricks. If he blindly proposed to him, although he would never have other ideas, but after all, he would not be willing to do so emotionally.
Okay. But when dealing with certain people, you can't just be strong. You still need to grasp the heat carefully.
Xuanji was silent for a while, and then he said after a long time: "Sir, how is the situation over there in the Hetao?"
"Fortunately." Luo Xiang nodded: "Under Xiangcheng's suggestion, the commander-in-chief has been training the reserve troops. Now there are only 180,000 regular troops in the Hetao Third Road, so Xiangcheng specially asked the commander-in-chief to train 100,000.
Reserve troops. During this period, while the war is still calm, Li Xiao, Situ Lie and Chun Jianshang are seizing the time to train their troops. The storm is about to come, and if my prediction is correct, it will take at least two months.
, there will definitely be a war in the southeast. If we don’t seize the opportunity and make good use of every day now, we will definitely be in a disadvantageous position in the future. Alas, the key here is Cassimbas. This person is indeed a
Character. He has always advocated planning before taking action, so once he takes action, it must be a big deal. A few days ago, I wrote to Xiangcheng, asking him whether he should take the initiative to disrupt Cassimbas's attack plan. We are still here
It would be good to accumulate strength and delay it for one more day. If we can postpone the decisive battle with the Bliss Alliance until March or April next year, then our chances of victory will be much greater. But Cassimbas will never be so cheap.
, so we have to think of some way.”
Xuanji agreed with his face. It was not unreasonable for the three outstanding talents of the time to be famous in Qingfeng. Although he could not see the extraordinary style of Tanhua Hao back then, he could also feel it from Chu Xiangcheng and Luo Xiang.
Extraordinary. After appreciating Luo Xiang's various methods, Xuanji also had special admiration for this old man. After a pause, he said: "Someone thinks so too. Although we won a victory a few days ago,
, but after all, it is prepared versus unprepared. And although Jin Zongbiao and others are generals, they are not handsome. Many of our generals in Hetao today, the five great generals should be able to suppress them. But Cassimbas will soon.
Arriving at the defense line of Dahe, this person has never been defeated in a hundred battles in his life. He is the biggest enemy of our country. I am afraid that this storm will be caused by him. However, this person has a strict layout, so the preparation time is usually longer. Therefore,
What the gentleman proposed about disrupting the opponent's offensive steps is indeed on point."
Youdao has a reputation for being a true warrior. Cassimbas has been able to stay outside the Great Wall for sixty years, so he is naturally superior. And considering that he has never been defeated in a hundred battles in his life, such a record is enough to make any opponent.
Fearful. At least after hearing that Cassimbas was about to reach the Dahe defense line, even Xiang Xing, Li Tiezhan and other battlefield veterans felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Of course, Haotian did not panic. There are certainly newborn calves here who are not afraid of tigers.
It means more of Haotian's trust in his subordinates.
In the battle in the wilderness outside the Great Wall, although Cassimbas had the upper hand, he later allowed Xue Sha and others to break out of the siege. In the Battle of Hukou, although they faced an encirclement and suppression by superior forces, Haotian finally succeeded.
They fled back to the Hetao. After the two battles, the losses of both sides were almost the same. Moreover, in both battles, the Hetao army used its tactical advantage to save its strategic disadvantage. Of course, this does not mean that the Hetao has already had and Kata.
The strength of Simbas's challenge. Although the current combat effectiveness of the soldiers on both sides is almost the same, there is still some gap between generals such as Fengjing Xuesha and Kasimbas in the command art. If they can hone themselves for a few more years,
