After the collapse of the Han Empire, coups also occurred in the Western Regions. Many city-states and small countries established themselves one after another, forming the oldest Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions at that time. However, the countries at that time were not large. The largest countries such as Loulan and Qiuci had only ten people.
There are more than ten thousand, and the soldiers are only a few thousand. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, there are now only more than ten countries left in the Western Regions. However, according to convention, we still call them the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions. The most powerful country now is
Loulan and Kuqa both have a population of one million and about 100,000 elite soldiers. However, small countries such as Wengche and Yarkand have no more than one city and no more than tens of thousands of people.
To the west of Jiayuguan is the vast desert Sea of Death. Most of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are established on oases in the desert. Only a few small countries such as Yarkand are located on the west side of the Nianqing Mountains. Usually,
Irrigation and agriculture are carried out by relying on rivers formed by melted ice and snow. Due to the dry desert climate here, most of the people of the Western Regions have tough characters. In addition, the other party is familiar with the desert terrain, so the combat effectiveness of the soldiers cannot be underestimated. For decades, Thirty-six of the Western Regions
The reason why the country is able to survive with difficulty between the two powerful forces of Sashan and Rouran is certainly due to the confrontation between the two powerful forces, but the combat effectiveness of their soldiers is also a very important reason. Now with the overwhelming power of the Western Region, there should be about 400,000
soldiers."
A look of worry appeared on Tianyi's face: "Is there any difficulty in being handsome over there?"
Bian Zhongxing smiled faintly: "Mother, please rest assured. Although the total strength of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions is as high as 400,000, they are not monolithic internally. The most powerful Loulan Moxing and Kuqa King Dijia have always been at odds with each other, and the two countries are at odds with each other.
It has been a long time. It is only because of Rouran in the north and Sashan in the south that they have to work together. Moreover, they have to guard against Sashan's laughter and Rouran's adding insult to injury. Therefore, the total force they can send this time will not exceed ten.
Wan. If these alienated people had not already reached the point where their country and family were ruined, they would never have tried their best. And someone has a powerful gate in hand, plus a hundred thousand soldiers who are recharged. Thirty thousand soldiers in the Western Region
The Six Kingdoms are nothing but clowns. What is worth worrying about is the Sashan Dynasty in the southwest and Luoche in the south."
"Sashan? This concubine has also heard that Lu Bumi, one of the deputy commanders of Soul Eater, is the queen of the Sashan royal family. He was jealous of King Agathius. The family was wiped out and he was the only one to escape.
He came out. If I hadn't saved him from Sashan's killer on the streets of Tiandu Shengjing, I'm afraid he would have died under Agathos's sword. I heard that Sashan was
It is a big religious country with a strong desire for external expansion. But I have never been here for so many years, so I don’t understand the actual situation." Tianyi nodded and said.
Bian Zhongxing said with approval: "What the mistress said is absolutely true. Sashan founded the country based on religion. In less than a hundred years, it rose from a small country of three miles to the overlord of the Central Continent. Now Sashan has more than 20 million people.
There are 600,000 soldiers. Its king Agathus is a crazy lover of land expansion. At that time, he once attacked the west continent's overlord, the Obsburg Empire. As a result, he was defeated by Suganev, the famous general of Obsburg.
Defeated. If Sibu Gaza had not blocked Suganev's offensive later, Sashan might have been destroyed by now. Later, in order to reconcile with the Obsburg Empire, Agathius divorced his wife and married an Obsburg
Princess Sophia, the daughter of Emperor Nicholas II, is his wife. Agathus has always coveted the wealth of our dynasty. When the Western Legion was stationed at Jiayuguan, Agathus once sent troops to attack the key. It was just the time.
Tie Shuai was relegated to the northwest. The young and energetic Agathus met the experienced Tie Shuai, and naturally he suffered a bloody blow. Later, he turned to the Bloody Plateau, but the Nianqing Mountains in the west of the Bloody Plateau were steep.
They are majestic, and the Scarlet Clan has been prepared for a long time, so naturally they will not let them succeed. However, they still do not give up. In the past ten years, they have sent spies from time to time to explore whether there is a path in the Nianqing Mountains. But there has been no result. According to Soul Eater
According to the latest information, the famous Sashan general Xibu Jiasha has gathered 200,000 troops and united the thirty-six countries in the Western Region to prepare for a joint attack."
"So what's the dynasty?" Tianyi said with a frown.
"The leader of the Luoche Dynasty, Wubi Cangxiong, has gathered an army of 100,000 troops and is preparing to attack Qingning Road. Luoche has only a population of more than 600,000, and the total strength of the country is only 150,000 troops. However, although Luoche has no generals,
, but they are also the ancient Scarlet Clan, and their combat effectiveness is still quite impressive. However, the Lingxian Elders of the Scarlet Plateau rejected someone's opinion about dispatching reinforcements to assist the Scarlet Plateau. Someone thought that the Lingxian Elders must have full strength.
We are sure of it, so we hope to show us the strength of the Bloody Plateau."
Tianyi nodded in agreement, raised his collar, and wrapped Hao'an in his arms even more airtight, and then said: "I have also heard of the name Xibu Jiasha. It is said that he is the same as the Western Continent Orbu
A famous battlefield general as famous as Suganev, the military commander of the Fort Empire. Since this man personally leads the army, his momentum is naturally extraordinary. What kind of assistance does the frontier commander need here? Jiayuguan is the gateway to the Northwest Second Road. If the secondary gate is opened
, then the Northwest Second Road will inevitably suffer the same tragedy as before. Thinking of the devastation of life at that time, I am really worried that the tragedy of that year will happen again."
Bian Chongxing laughed: "Don't worry, mistress. Although someone is mediocre, he still has some experience in defending the city. As long as someone is still breathing, then Jiayuguan will be at peace." At this point, Jiayuguan is at peace.
, Bian Zhongxing's heart suddenly moved, and he tentatively said: "Mother, although the situation here in Jiayuguan will not be a problem, someone is still a little worried. Now my Northwest Third Road is surrounded by enemies, so the first one to take action is
It is the Sashan Dynasty and the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions. In order to cope with this pressure, one hundred thousand troops have been concentrated here. This is already more than half of our remaining troops in Hetao. The remaining 80,000 soldiers have to bear the burden of three troops in Hetao.
The Thousand Mile Defense Line and Hukou Ferry, Yumen Xiongguan and the three key areas of the Yinfeng Mountains. If an accident occurs in any of these places, it may lead to the collapse of the entire defense line. So someone is thinking,
Should we recruit some soldiers to strengthen the strength of these three places?"
Tianyi frowned, thought for a moment, and then said: "The Hetao is being revitalized. Although there is some foundation, we need to assist the restoration and construction of Hexi Road and Anxi Road, so funds and materials are particularly tight. Recruitment
Soldiers are not impossible, but this must first be agreed by Uncle Chu and Mr. Lin. There are now 380,000 soldiers in Hetao. I am worried about the expansion of the army in Hetao again, can I bear this heavy burden? Moreover, the court
Now they are especially wary of us. If we expand our troops at will without any reason, then who knows what the imperial court will think?"
Bian Zhongxing said with a wry smile: "It is true that we have nearly 400,000 troops in Hetao, but my lord went south this time and took away a total of 200,000 of the most elite troops. Those soldiers are all veteran soldiers who have participated in our establishment in Hetao.
Most of the soldiers who survived the Battle of Hukou went south with the lord this time. And those who stayed in Hetao were basically recruits recruited after the Battle of Hukou. Their combat effectiveness and fighting will were simply not comparable to that of the lord.
Compared with the soldiers who left. Although He and Xue Commander Feng Shuai and others have tried their best to strengthen training according to their situation, if the combat effectiveness of an army is to be truly improved, it must pass the test of the battlefield. If the war goes smoothly, then
They can still perform normally, but if there is a slight setback, their combat effectiveness will inevitably be greatly reduced. And according to someone's inference, it may take several months to see the outcome of the upcoming battle, or even be delayed intermittently.
By one year. And if our western front reaches a stalemate, will there be any accidents south of the Yinfeng Mountains and east of Hukou Ferry? As for the court, their dissatisfaction with us is no longer a matter of a day or two, but
We have no choice but to prepare more reserves. If our lord reaches a stalemate in the southeast and the surrounding enemies scramble to attack, then our three routes in Hetao will definitely be in danger."
"What Commander Bian said makes sense." Tianyi sighed and said. Haotian went south this time and almost took away all the elites on the third line of Hetao. Among the five generals in Hetao, except Bian Zhongxing, he was fully responsible for the defense of the third line of Hetao.
Regarding the matter, the remaining four people all went south. Military advisor Xuanji and counselor Luo Xiang also went with the army. Now on the million square kilometers of land on the third road of Hetao, there are only 180,000 second-rate troops in Hetao, and the ones responsible for the defense are not
He killed first-class generals such as Fengjing and others. Although Li Xiao, Situ Lie, Chun Jianshang and others were considered talented generals, they were somewhat lacking in qualifications. As for the forces surrounding the Hetao, the foreign tribes outside the Great Wall hated the Hetao to the core. The Western Regions
The Thirty-Six Kingdoms and the Luoxue Dynasty had ulterior motives and were just waiting to add insult to injury when the Hetao was stretched thin. Although the Uma Dynasty has been very honest recently, since they have surrendered to Tie Ying, they will naturally not be on the same page as the Hetao. To the southwest
The Sashan Dynasty has been coveting the Celestial Dynasty for a long time, and hopes to open a breakthrough here. The Song family and the Li family in the south of the Yinfeng Mountains are obviously not trustworthy partners. Thinking of this, Tianyi can't help but think of the northwest
The tragedies after the fall of Erlu and Hetao made my heart feel like needle pricks. At this time, God was too lazy to think about how the court would react.
