After hesitating for a moment, Xue Qingcheng opened her mouth and said: "My lord, why are you so sure that the battle with the Bliss Alliance will take place in the spring of next year?"
Haotian shook his head: "It's not that I'm so sure, but the analysis of the military advisor and Mr. Luo. They all agreed that Cassimbas must wait until next year before the war begins. But for what reason, they didn't
Tell me clearly. To be honest, I have always suspected that they have guessed what Kasimbas’s plan is, but they just refuse to tell it.”
Xin Jiao smiled slightly: "My lord, Mr. Luo and the military advisor are loyal to you, and they will never have any selfish motives. Even if they really know, but they refuse to say it, it is obviously because they don't want you, lord."
Worry. Or maybe it’s just that they have this speculation, but because the matter is too involved, they dare not speak out without actual evidence.”
Haotian was slightly startled, but still nodded: "Maybe. But if it is as they guessed, after the beginning of spring next year, this Yuzhou Road will probably become a cemetery."
"Why is my lord so worried?" Xue Qingcheng asked puzzledly.
Haotian smiled bitterly: "We are almost facing a catastrophe, and we still don't know how to unite as one. Look, the total strength of the Paradise Alliance in the northern area of Yangzhou Road is only 700,000, and how many troops are there on our side? We
The army of Hetao and Bloody Plateau is about 150,000. The Li family on Qinchuan Road includes 30,000 navy troops, totaling 230,000. As for the imperial court, the organic army includes the Dragon Cavalry Guards and the Qinglong Army of 300,000, plus the already formed army of 300,000.
The Eastern Army, the Northern Army and local garrisons with a certain combat effectiveness have a total strength of more than 600,000. In addition to the more than 200,000 troops of the Zhang family in Huaishui, if we work together, it is not impossible to defeat the Paradise Alliance.
Like this time, if the imperial court takes the initiative and presses the Dragon Cavalry Legion or the Imperial Guard Legion to the border of Meizhou to force Bing Heng to dare not move rashly, then we will definitely be able to annihilate Cheng Xianqing's 100,000 protective soldiers. And Li
If Xiao Mo was more enthusiastic and sent out his 100,000 troops, then even the 14th Eastern Japanese Guards came to support the army, and I was sure to eat it in one bite. It's a pity that after so many twists and turns, it ended up being the end of the world.
It was a joke in vain."
Xue Qingcheng smiled and said: "My lord, don't talk about Li Xiaomo. Last time we teamed up with Li Xiaomo to attack the Northeastern Allied Forces. As a result, the Qinchuan army was seriously injured. Li Tieming was very distressed at that time and ordered Li Xiaomo not to do anything without authorization.
Send troops. If not, I'm afraid he would have come to you to discuss the war."
"That's true. In the entire Yuzhou Road battlefield, only Li Xiaomo has such a vision and such fighting passion. It's a pity that the troops in his hands are limited, and they are also controlled by Li Tieming. Alas, if he could persuade
How great would it be, Tie Shuai? Tie Shuai now controls Qinglong Dongfang North and 100,000 local garrisons, plus He Shuai's dragon army. If we cooperate together to attack, even Cassimbas will have to break his muscles.
Bones." Haotian sighed and said: "If the imperial court is willing to take the initiative, then I, Haotian, must be the vanguard! It's a pity that the auxiliary king and His Majesty have not yet clearly entangled themselves, and the power in our hands is not clear.
It’s really too weak.”
Haotian made some calculations and found that Hetao was already preparing to expand its army. But even if the army was not expanded, Hetao would still have an army of 500,000 people at full strength. However, of these 500,000 troops, 100,000 were killed in the bloody battle on South Yunnan Road and Dugu.
, I still have 100,000 soldiers here plus my own soldiers, Fengjing and Xingke have 20,000 cavalry, and there are about 250,000 troops on the third road of Hetao. However, the combat effectiveness of these 250,000 troops is different from that of the Hetao headquarters that has already moved south.
In comparison, there is still a big gap. If nothing else, even if the 50,000 elites are selected from the 300,000 troops left behind, their combat effectiveness is still not as good as the elites of Hetao. And if you want to use these soldiers
I'm afraid it will take another big battle to train to the level after the Battle of Hukou.
Xue Qingcheng hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and said: "My lord, if it is really needed, our bloody clan can still raise a hundred thousand cavalry."
Looking at Xue Qingcheng's resolute expression, Haotian finally shook his head: "No. Your Scarlet Clan only has a population of 1.6 million, and your current army has reached 250,000. You are different.
The total nomadic people outside the Great Wall are adding 100,000 soldiers, which may affect the normal operation of your Bloody Plateau, so forget it. I'll let the commander-in-chief think of a way to train the new recruits in Hetao as soon as possible."
Xue Qingcheng pouted her little mouth and said: "Three hundred and fifty thousand is three hundred and fifty thousand. When our ancestor King Tianfan accompanied Emperor Taizu to conquer the world, the total population of our bloody clan was only eight hundred thousand, but we still formed a
Two hundred thousand of the most elite cavalry."
"That was that time. The environment is different now. Naturally, it cannot be compared with before." Haotian said firmly. To be honest, Haotian was still very excited about Xue Qingcheng's proposal. The people of the Scarlet Clan only need
Once you mount a war horse, you are a qualified cavalry. In other words, these 100,000 soldiers can be formed immediately with just one order, and they have extremely strong combat effectiveness. But as Haotian himself said,
The Scarlet Clan is no longer the same as it was three hundred years ago. The 300,000-strong army may have exceeded the Scarlet Clan's maximum strength. Thinking of this, Haotian opened his mouth and said: "Your troops on the Scarlet Plateau cannot be too empty. We and the Sashan Dynasty
The war has already begun, and your Luoche dynasty to the south is also tending to join forces with Sashan, and there is also the cunning Song family to the east. I am still thinking about how to mobilize troops to strengthen your defense line these days. Therefore, regarding the increase of troops,
Don’t say it again in the future.”
Xue Qingcheng felt moved in her heart, blinked her beautiful eyes a few times, and then said: "Husband, since this doesn't work, I have another way. The commander of the Dragon Riding Legion is one of the four elders of our Bloody Plateau, although
Most of the mid-level and high-level legions in the legion are meritorious children from Tiandu Shengjing, but at least 80,000 of the 100,000 soldiers are members of my Scarlet Clan. I am a saint from the Scarlet Plateau, and I am also a member of the Scarlet Clan.
The patriarch of one and a half million people still has some prestige in the hearts of these soldiers. If my lord is in need, I can mobilize the dragonriders to help in the battle."
Haotian was curious: "General Hu Biyandan is now a general of the imperial court. Although he comes from the Blood clan, are you sure you can command him? Besides, the soldiers below have been in the army for many years. I'm afraid it's not a saint like you.
Able to influence."
"Husband, please rest assured that we, the Scarlet Clan, have the strongest faith no matter what the circumstances. Although the Holy Blood Order, which represents the identity of the clan leader, is not around, my identity is known to the world. If I come forward in person,
, even Elder Hu Biyandan would not dare to resist." Xue Qingcheng said with a smile.
"Holy Blood Order? Where did you put such an important thing?"
"The Bloody Plateau. In fact, the Holy Blood Order has always been entrusted to the master for safekeeping. Over the years, the master has been taking charge of the Bloody Plateau on my behalf. And with the Holy Blood Order in hand, the master can replace me and take full responsibility for the Bloody Plateau."
Military and political affairs on the plateau."
"Oh, I don't see that you have such a trick. But the impact of this is really bad. The Dragoon Legion is one of the two remaining legions in the empire, and it is also the force that the court relies on most. If the Dragoon Legion is suddenly attacked
If you get your subordinates, then the imperial court will definitely set off a huge wave. Now that our country is in turmoil, it is time for us to work together to overcome the difficulties. We must not do such things that make our relatives angry and our enemies happy." Haotian pinched.
Holding Xue Qingcheng's hand, she said: "This matter should be left to Uncle Chu and Bian Shuai. Oh, by the way, where have Lianchen and Qiu Mu gone? Why haven't they been seen all day?
A figure?"
Xue Qingcheng smiled playfully: "You two, you'll know in the evening."
Haotian's expression turned bitter: "I said, are they going to prepare tonight's meal again?"
"Husband, you are so smart. Lianchen and Qiu Mu just think that you have been holding back too hard these days, so they want to make some good dishes to refresh you. Early this morning, they went out to prepare the ingredients. But now
She must be busy in the kitchen."
When Haotian heard this, his head immediately went numb. Among the women around him, except Xin Jiao, only God could take care of people. The other women, whether they were the princess Xue Qingcheng, Zhang Yuewan or the saint
Xian Lianchen or Fu Ruoshui Qiumu, each of them used to live a life of opening their mouths for food and reaching for clothes. They probably didn't know how to do anything except dressing up. If this is really the case, then Hao
It doesn't matter. Women are naturally meant to be loved. No matter what, he is now regarded as the first-ranked Duke of Jingbei in the imperial court. It is no problem to hire a few maids to serve a few women. But Xian Lianchen, Qiu Mu and others just
Unconsciously, everyone always feels that being able to serve their husband with a spoon is the happiest thing, so whenever they have time, they like to get into the kitchen and prepare special dishes for Haotian.
But except for Xin Jiao and Tianyi, all the women lacked talent in cooking. Needless to say, the food they cooked was unpalatable. In the past, Haotian had just established a foothold in Hetao, and Tianyi was responsible for Haotian.
When they were living in Tiantian, Dugu, Xuesha Fengjing and others who were the last to be shameless liked to eat together at Haotian's place. After Xin Jiao arrived, several people liked it even more. Even Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng often went there
Come on. After all, Xin Jiao, who was born in Luoxingju, can be said to be a proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, song and poetry. So during that period, every time Haotian ate, there was a large table full of people. But later
After the interests of Xian Lianchen, Xue Qingcheng and others were developed, several women also added two dishes to Haotian from time to time, and then Dugu and others rarely showed up. Even when they were discussing something, as soon as the meal arrived,
He would immediately find an excuse to leave. Later, Xian Lianchen and others also knew his shortcomings, so they had much less time to cook. However, even so, every time they ate, Dugu and others would ask with lingering fear.
Previous post: Who is the chef today?
So when he heard that Xian Lianchen and Qiu Mu were actually working together to prepare dinner for him, Haotian immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and then said to Xue Qingcheng without explanation: "Hey, I happen to have something to do today, so I'm going to prepare it."
Go to the military camp for inspection. I asked Lu Zhen and the others to summarize their battlefield experience that day. I don’t know how they went. Well, I will eat in the military camp tonight. Ah, tell Lianchen and the others that there is no need to prepare a midnight snack for me.
