Xue Sha said: "These five southern Yunnan tribes are also arrogant. Wouldn't it be nice to be their local emperors? Why do they always think about treason and self-reliance? They don't even think about it. With their strength, even if they become an independent country,
It's just becoming a vassal of the surrounding forces. It's great to follow our China. Not only does it occupy the title of righteousness, but our China has always been generous to them and never interfered with matters within their territory. I really didn't know they were still there.
What extravagant hope? Aren't they afraid that we will dispatch a large army to wipe them out?"
Dugu laughed loudly: "Xue Shuai, you don't know. Now that our empire is divided into pieces, anyone with a little bit of strength will inevitably think about things. They still have a plan in mind. With our current situation, if we want to reunify and establish
Who knows how many years it will take for a powerful empire to become a powerful empire. If that is the case, they will be the same when they surrender. At most, they will report their obsession at the time and hope that His Majesty will spare them for the sake of guarding the border for many years.
One horse. If the imperial court is dissatisfied and wants to send troops to attack, they can at least protect themselves by relying on the rugged mountains and dense jungles on the South Yunnan Road. And if the empire declines, they might still be able to get a share of the empire's land. Forget it.
After all, they didn't suffer much loss. Why didn't they take a risk? In fact, this kind of thing happened many times in their history. In the end, our Central Plains Empire generously forgave them, so they naturally
You will take advantage of it."
Xue Sha smiled coldly, a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes, and the strong murderous aura made Dugu beside him couldn't help but turn around: "It's a pity that our Hetao is not one of those pedantic and hypocritical dynasties. If it gets angry,
We will burn this place with fire when the time comes. Anyway, people who are not of my race will have different minds. People like this who eat in and out are also a scourge."
Dugu's face was filled with joy, he stretched out his right palm, gave Xue Sha a high five, laughed loudly and said: "What Xue Sha said is exactly what someone meant. If the five tribes in southern Yunnan are really treasonous and self-reliant, then
This commander will definitely destroy southern Yunnan!"
Zhang Cangzong is very anxious now. The night before yesterday, he received a letter from Zhang Yuewan, asking him to bring the 40,000-strong navy and all the transport ships to the Yanjin Ferry in Binzhou in the south of the Huai River to meet the arrival of the Hetao.
One hundred thousand soldiers marched north.
Although Zhang Cangzong had some resistance to this niece's order, he did not disobey it in the end. Now Zhang Cangxiong and Zhang Keliang are confronting the Holy Sect of Paradise in the Danzhou area of Huai River, and they have no energy to manage the affairs of Huai River. Zhang Yuewan was originally Zhang Cangxiong's legitimate daughter.
In emergencies, he even had the right to expand his army and prepare for war. He was ordered to lead the navy from the Danzhou area to Pennsylvania. This was also a normal military movement. He naturally had no reason to disobey. Most importantly, he also hoped that the Hetao army could move north as soon as possible.
.
The Huai River network is densely covered, but since the fall of Shouzhou and Raozhou, the main water channel from Tiandu Shengjing to Dajiang - the main stream of Huaishui River - has fallen into the hands of the Holy Sect of Paradise. However, the relationship between Dajiang and Tiandu Shengjing
During this time, there was not only such a Hetao. In the Danzhou area of Pingzhou, there were no less than five rivers leading to Tiandu Shengjing. Zhang Cangzong’s task was to transport the 100,000 troops from the Hetao to the Luozhou area through the navy. Although the waterway was
It is a bit slower than the land route, but due to the special terrain with dense Huai River network, it may be a few minutes faster. Besides, this can also greatly save the physical strength of the Hetao soldiers, ensuring that the Hetao soldiers can quickly reach Yuzhou Road.
Get into battle.
"General, they are coming!" At this moment, a soldier shouted excitedly.
Zhang Cangzong looked up, and sure enough, under the scorching sun, a bright red flag gradually appeared on the horizon. Along with the billowing smoke, a sturdy cavalry was already rushing towards Yanjin Ferry.
"It's the Iron Blood Mountain and River Flag of Hetao. They are finally here!" Zhang Cangzong breathed a long sigh of relief. After waiting for a whole day, the Hetao army finally arrived.
During this day, he had been worried about the sneak attack of the Japanese navy. Although the number of the Japanese navy has dropped to about 150,000, and most of them are concentrated in the Dahe River, even the Japanese navy has gone to Huai River and Ru
Zhouhe section, but the strength of the Dongwa Navy cannot be underestimated. If they take the opportunity to sneak attack him along Jiangxi, although he believes that he can block the opponent's attack, it will inevitably slow down the northward speed of the Hetao army. Fortunately, he is lucky.
Not too bad, the Loop army finally arrived first.
There were only 10,000 Hetao cavalry in the vanguard, and the leader was none other than Zhou Jilong, who had been scolded bloody by Dugu. As soon as he saw Zhang Zongcang's flag, Zhou Jilong quickly got off his horse, walked forward with a smile, clasped his fists, and said: "This
I guess it's General Zhang Zongcang, the famous general on the Huai River, right? The last general, Hetao Zhou Jilong, pays homage to General Zhang."
"You're welcome, General Zhou. Zhang is not worthy of such praise." Zhang Cangzong said with a smile. He had also heard of Zhou Jilong's name. He was another gangster under the gangster Dugu's command, but this gangster still gave him face, at least in front of the army.
I still respect myself.
However, the military situation was urgent now, and Zhang Cangzong had no time to get close to Zhou Jilong, so he asked: "General Zhang, how far is your army from here, and when will it arrive?"
"About sixty miles. However, the army does not carry much supplies and is all moving lightly, so it will not take long."
Zhang Cangzong nodded: "In that case, General Zhou might as well lead the cavalry to inspect the lower reaches of the ferry to prevent any accidents."
Zhou Jilong wondered: "General, aren't you going to send us 10,000 cavalry across the river first?"
"Her Royal Highness Princess Qing has already given an order, so I'm sorry that I, the general, can't make it clear for the time being." Zhang Cangzong said with a smile.
Zhou Jilong naturally knew that the Princess of the Qing Dynasty was Zhang Yuewan, the third wife of Hetao. In this case, it was not convenient for him to ask, so he nodded and led his cavalry to extend below the ferry in accordance with Zhang Cangzong's request.
Seeing the Hetao cavalry disappear from sight mixed with billowing smoke, Zhang Cangzong's face became a little more serious, and he said without looking back: "Ji Wei, what do you think of the combat effectiveness of the Hetao cavalry compared to this Zhou Jilong?"
Zhang Jiwei, who was standing behind Zhang Cangzong, said solemnly: "Zhou Jilong is a man who is rough and refined, and a rogue, but also cunning. I heard that he is in the same line as his immediate boss Dugu Yuming, and I want to come to the Hetao Five Battles to general him.
Dugu Yuming must be even more difficult to deal with. As for the Wanhetao cavalry, I am not a cavalry general. I dare not draw any conclusions about this. But just looking at their motionless appearance, as fast as a mountain and as fast as wind and fire, they are indeed a troop.
Elite in all battles."
Zhang Cangzong nodded: "It is very valuable that you have such insight. The Hetao can dominate one side and move horizontally and horizontally. It is indeed somewhat real. If nothing else, just these 10,000 cavalry can be seen.
It turns out that their army is well-trained and disciplined. Even this Zhou Jilong, there are not many in Huaishui who can compare with him. Of course, if you train well in the army, you will never be worse than him.
"
"Dad." Zhang Jiwei shouted.
Zhang Cangzong gave a wry smile. Among the descendants of the Zhang family, the most outstanding one is Zhang Yuewan, followed by his son Zhang Jiwei. However, Zhang Cangzong and Zhang Cangxiong are cousins after all, and Zhang Cangwu and Zhang Cangxiong are brothers born from the same mother.
, the close relationship between the two people is naturally obvious. The most important thing is that Zhang Cangzong's father lost to Zhang Cangxiong's father when he competed for the head of the Zhang family in Huaishui. Zhang Cangxiong naturally had to be wary of his brother.
"Okay, Xue Sha and Dugu Yuming among the five generals in the Hetao will arrive soon. When you get there, take a good look at the momentum of these two people. There are also the elite infantry led by them. These are the reasons why Haotian dominates the Hetao.
capital.”
After half a day of coordination, the 100,000 soldiers in the Hetao finally managed to board all the ships on the Huai River. Fortunately, there were many transport ships in the Huai River, otherwise the 100,000 soldiers in the Hetao would not be able to carry all the troops.
"Commander Xue, many soldiers are seasick and are now vomiting." Dugu said to Xue Sha with a smile. The ship the two of them were traveling on was the most luxurious. After all, they were the commander of Hetao, Zhang Cangzong.
You have to give them some face. The ship is big, so it is naturally much more stable. And both of them are hidden masters, so they are not afraid of seasickness. But the soldiers below will suffer, especially these soldiers.
They all come from Hetao Sanlu. Most people are not good at water, so they vomited as soon as they got on the boat.
Xue Sha smiled nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, I'm used to it. According to Zhang Cangzong, it will take us about three days to get to Qiuzhou. From Qiuzhou to the front line of Luozhou, plus
Our rest time took about one day. Calculating it this way, we still arrived at the battlefield on time. Haha, thanks to the Huaishui Navy this time, otherwise we would have had to rush to Luozhou in such a hurry.
Take a day or two.”
Dugu nodded: "Yes. The Huai River network is densely covered. Without the cooperation of the navy, even we cannot exert our full strength here. No wonder the Holy Bliss Sect has occupied the two states east of the Huai River.
They can't completely control it because they don't have a navy."
Xue Sha's heart moved, and he naturally knew what Dugu was thinking. Among the many generals in Hetao, Dugu was naturally the best in mountain warfare. In defensive operations, there were Bian Zhongxing, who was known as a copper wall and an iron wall. In infantry operations, there were fierce generals such as Jiang Shenzhou, Zhan Shutang, and Situ Lie. In cavalry, there were
It was Xue Ke who killed himself and Feng Jing Xinke. But when it comes to fighting on the water, Zhang Yuewan seems to be the only one who can take action in Hetao. Although He Bugui has surrendered to Hetao, if he wants to grow to the level of the three famous generals in the East China Sea or even Zhang Cangzong
, there are still some gaps. If Hetao really plans to march into Huai River in the future, and the Zhang family does not agree, it will be more troublesome.
"The one who surrenders his troops without fighting is the best." Xue Sha said calmly.
Dugu shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Maybe you are right. However, the Huai River is indeed not very stable. If Zhang Cangxiong dies, the Huai River will probably collapse. Ah ha, so does our lord.
If he is not the son-in-law of King Weiyuan, he will be able to legitimately intervene when the time comes."
Xue Sha glanced at Dugu angrily and said in a low voice: "You have a pretty good idea. If you want to send troops to Huai River, you should first think about how to settle your old club and the Qinchuan Li family. Besides, if you have the spirit,
, you might as well think about the current battle situation on Yuzhou Road. Since the Lord is determined to burn the boat, we must go all out. Alas, I hope this is really the last time."
When Xuesha and Dugu arrived in the Shanyin area of Luozhou, six days had passed since the grain burning in Xuzhou. During these days, nearly 300,000 troops in Hetao launched an offensive against the Northeastern coalition forces defended by Cassimbas.
He launched a crazy attack, and every attack was personally led by senior generals such as Feng Jing Xinke. The combat resilience and fighting will of the Hetao army have always been the best in Qingfeng. Although Kasimbas is a famous commander of his generation, facing two people who dare to
He challenged his majestic younger generation Xiaosheng, but in his hands were elites from all parties who had not experienced integration at all. He had to brace himself and face the challenge of the two of them with all his strength.
After five days of bloody fighting, more than 60,000 soldiers from Hetao were killed and countless others were injured. The 350,000-strong army led by Cassimbas was not much better. In order to block the sharpest cavalry from Hetao, he had at least the same number of troops.
The soldier lay on the battlefield. However, although he paid a heavy price in Cassimbas' view, his defense line was impregnable. Although the Hetao army was powerful, it could not cross the thunder pool even half a step.
When the 100,000 Hetao elites led by Xue Sha and Dugu moved north from Qiuzhou to Luozhou, the strength of the Hetao army once again grew to more than 300,000. And after knowing Haotian's thoughts, the senior generals of Hetao Ru Xue killed Dugu Fengjing.
The others also made up their minds. Since this was the last time they would be loyal, they should try their best to fulfill Haotian's wish. So, under the personal planning of Luo Xiang and Xuanji, more than 300,000 troops came from Luozhou.
Baili's defense line launched a fierce attack on the Paradise Alliance Army.
In order to deal with the threat of the Eastern Japanese navy, He Huairen, the leader of the three famous generals in the East China Sea, took action and relieved the 300,000-strong army in Hetao from worries.
At the same time, Emperor Yinglie, who was already on the verge of collapse in Xuzhou City, finally issued the last military order. Under Tie Zhen's planning, Xuzhou, which had been silent for a long time, also started to move. Suddenly, the beacon fire in Yuzhou burned blazingly again, and the breeze
The last and most bloody battle of the empire began from then on. The final fall of Xuzhou marked the end of the Qingfeng Empire, and the post-Qingfeng era led by the Auxiliary King quietly began.
