Xuanji also knew that it was time to speak for himself at this time, otherwise others would really think that he, as a military advisor, was just a loser, so he opened his mouth and said: "The national strength of the three Northeastern countries is limited. It is not easy to restore the military strength to the glory of 618."
Things. But if they are allowed to digest all the Sixteen Youyun Prefectures, then the national strength will inevitably rise to a higher level. Now there are about five million people from the three northeastern countries in the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures, although it is less than the Sixteen Youyun Prefectures back then.
One-seventh of the population, but they account for more than one-sixth of their domestic population. And now the Sixteen Youyun Prefectures have gradually shown signs of being completely integrated into the Three Northeastern Kingdoms, so we must integrate them within the next two years.
Take it back, otherwise the difficulty will inevitably double in the future."
Xuanji took a breath and saw that Feng Jing and others were listening to him carefully, so he continued with a smile: "If we send troops to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun now, then the 300,000 Northeastern Allied Forces south of the river will definitely move north.
When the time comes, we will probably have so many troops in one go. And the Sixteen States of Youyun are mainly located in the Great Plains. If we can't get through in one go, it will most likely form a tug-of-war, which will not be good for us. Therefore, if we send out troops
Youyun Sixteen Prefectures must quickly conquer the two most important passes on the Great Wall defense line with thunderous strikes, and then close the door to make dumplings and eat the northeastern garrison of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures. But Juyong Pass
Shanhaiguan and Shanhaiguan are one of the four major passes of the Great Wall. It would be wishful thinking to conquer them all at once. Therefore, the three Northeastern countries will definitely try their best to come to the aid. Therefore, the key to the matter lies in consuming each other's vitality."
Luo Xiang took the words and said: "There are other benefits to annihilating these 300,000 troops. The imperial court and the three major aristocratic families are at odds with the Holy Bliss Sect. The imperial court has been unable to destroy the Holy Bliss Sect because it is afraid of the Holy Bliss Sect.
The Three Northeastern Kingdoms after teaching. Now the Three Northeastern Kingdoms have been weakened by us, and if we can eat these 300,000 troops, the court and the three major families will definitely be unable to hold back. However, Cheng Xianqing is a talented man with little ambition, and without the strength of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms
If you are constrained, you might do something irrational, and in that case, we can just sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers."
Feng Jing understood and smiled: "It's not just that. If we promise that we will never interfere in affairs south of the river unless ordered by the court, and gather the troops on Yuzhou Road into one place, then the Qinchuan Li family and the court will definitely
They compete with each other for the Yuzhou Road territory. The Bliss Holy Sect has withdrawn from Jiangnan Road. The three major families and the imperial court will definitely not let go of this piece of fat, and there may be some disputes. Haha, it seems that we only need to eliminate these three hundred thousand people.
After the army, we only need to return to Hetao, they will definitely fight for a bloody blow, and then we will wait for an opportunity to regain the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun, and only after recharging our strength, we will send troops to the south of the river."
Xin Ke said worriedly: "The 300,000 Northeastern Allied Forces and the 50,000 to 60,000 Eastern Japanese Army have been defeated by us and are no match for us. But don't forget, Cassimbas is still here.
. This person is indeed a strong enemy. We have fought against him many times. It is not easy to get benefits from him. "
Luo Xiang smiled mysteriously: "Cassimbas is indeed a famous general, but I will try my best to transfer him back to Beijing before the end of this year."
The heroic emperor Xuzhou passed away, and his body and the city were cremated. Such a major event naturally shocked the empire and mourned the country. On the day Haotian returned from Xuzhou, King Xiangrui Liu Nanqiu, King Luoqing Liu Nanshu, and Anbian Hou Maying
, Xiangfu Hou Huang Jie, An Ning Hou Prince Aibin and others returned to the Holy Capital of Tiandu regardless of their injuries. Naturally, they brought with them the three testaments of Emperor Yinglie. Naturally, Haotian's portion of the testament would not be returned to the auxiliary king. This was
The biggest reliance of Hetao Three Roads.
Although the auxiliary king Liu Xian had already been informed of Emperor Yinglie's last edict, when Liu Nanqiu and other princes and nobles led the edict to the Holy Capital of Tiandu, auxiliary king Liu Xian personally led the civil and military officials to greet him. Seeing Emperor Yinglie
Naturally, the auxiliary king and all the civil and military officials, princes and nobles burst into tears following the edict. It is unknown how much sadness there is in it.
A country cannot live without a king for a day. After accepting the edict, the auxiliary king naturally prepared to ascend the throne. In order to show respect for the emperor's brother, the auxiliary king changed his name to Zhongxing, known as Zhongxing Emperor in the world, and made Liu Houde, the eldest son of the Yinglie Emperor, the crown prince. He ascended the throne.
It's a big event, no small matter, but time is urgent now, so the time to ascend the throne is set on August 4th, the fastest zodiac festival.
The new emperor ascended the throne. Although the Qingfeng royal family is now at sunset, it still has a tiger skin. Therefore, the three major Qingfeng families including the Bloody Plateau have sent envoys to the Holy Capital of Tiandu. The Hetao area is naturally no exception, but
Chu Xiangcheng was personally in charge of Hetao, and it seemed that he was not prepared at all. Anyway, Haotian was currently on Yuzhou Road. With Haotian's temperament, he would definitely go there in person.
Haotian is now planning the war on Yuzhou Road. According to Luo Xiang's suggestion, Haotian is naturally preparing to keep the 300,000 Northeastern Allied Forces south of the river. After Kato Takashi's 100,000-strong navy was completely wiped out, the Eastern Japanese army was on the defensive line of the river.
There was no soldier left on the battlefield. Before the alliance was formed, the Eastern Japanese had an army of 300,000 and an army of 200,000, which was a force that should not be underestimated. However, after the Battle of Yuzhou, the Japanese only had 150,000 left.
The army and the 50,000-strong navy. Except for the necessary troops left behind on the four major islands of Chongming, Zhoushan, Ryukyu, and Qiongya, and the troops left behind on the East Japan mainland, the East Japan has no troops at all to take back the 50,000 remaining soldiers south of the river, let alone another one.
Block the river defense line.
And without the help of the Eastern Japan Navy on the river defense line, the 300,000 troops of the three northeastern countries would not be able to return to the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun.
"My lord, although the morale of the 300,000 soldiers from the three northeastern countries is low, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If we press hard and the trapped beasts still fight, it will definitely be a lose-lose situation. Therefore, subduing the enemy's troops without fighting is a good idea.
The art of war is the best strategy." Luo Xiang said with a smile.
"Although Yangzhou Road is rich, after the ravages of the Holy Sect of Ultimate Bliss, all the wealth has been emptied out. Feeding the 500,000 troops of the Holy Sect of Ultimate Bliss has reached its limit. Therefore, the Holy Sect of Ultimate Bliss must send troops to Jiangnan Road and
Although it is necessary to expand the strength in the east of Huai River, it is also a last resort. The three hundred thousand troops of the three northeastern countries remain in Henan. As long as they are alive, the Holy Sect of Paradise must support them for one day. The foundation of the Holy Sect of Paradise is already there.
Not thick, in this way, they can consume their strategic materials to a greater extent. The Eastern Japanese Dynasty will definitely not be able to restore the strength of the navy at its peak within a year. In other words, if there is no accident, the Northeastern Three Kingdoms Allied Forces will at least
We have to stay south of the river for a year, and we have plenty of opportunities during this year."
For Haotian, he doesn't like this method, but Luo Xiang's words also make sense. If we fight hard now, it will inevitably cause huge losses. The soldiers in Hetao are already very nervous, so Haotian naturally doesn't want to do it.
At the expense of his own limited force, he therefore adopted Luo Xiang's suggestion and prepared to force the Jie Le army on Yuzhou Road back to the Yangzhou Road area. At worst, they would have to retreat to the Xuzhou and Ruzhou lines. Anyway, this area has been ravaged by the Jie Le Alliance.
It's almost there. It's no exaggeration to say that it's deserted and littered with bones. The Elysium Alliance will only be a burden if it's in your hands.
Dugu Yuming and Xinke had already led 50,000 cavalry to Jinyuan County, and after joining the 50,000 infantry left by Zhou Jilong, Dugu and Xinke naturally began to put pressure on Yelu Minghui Cordore in Jinyuan County. After He and
After the battle with Hu Biyandan's Dragon Cavalry Corps, only 100,000 of the 120,000 soldiers were left. However, these 120,000 troops were all Eastern Japanese, Baijing and Hercynian coalition forces, so Yelu Minghui's envoys were not easy to deal with.
Kordor was a general who paid homage to the capital, and he was at odds with Yelu Minghui. Only now, faced with the threat of Dugu and Xinke's 100,000 troops, the two had to join forces to fight.
Dugu Yuming is not in a hurry. For him, Chi Zhongtian is a general of the empire after all. Even if the Loop can rescue him, who knows who he will follow. Although they are all friendly forces, friendly forces will go to rescue him if they are in trouble.
It is natural, but the premise is not to ignore his own life, so Dugu Yuming still chose to play it safe.
"Xin Shuai, what do you mean?" Dugu asked with a laugh.
Xin Ke said nonchalantly: "It is imperative to rescue the friendly forces. Chi Zhongtian and more than 10,000 soldiers dared to break with Zhu Bingyang in such a bad situation and vowed not to surrender. He can be considered a man.
. I didn’t expect that the Northern Army would be so pusy and have such a bloody man. However, there are still 100,000 enemy troops in Jinyuan County. We only have 100,000 troops. If they stick to the county, we will not be able to do it in a short time.
There's nothing you can do about him."
Dugu said nonchalantly: "Xin Shuai, if you say that, the lord will definitely give us a severe lesson. We didn't work hard last time, but we were given a severe lesson by the lord. My lord's mood recently
Not very good, I don’t want to get into trouble with my lord."
Xin Ke also touched his steel needle-like beard in distress, and said distressedly: "It's true. You said that my lord has been so angry these days. Wouldn't it be better if the heroic emperor died? That assistant king Liu Xian is obviously
A pustule, if he ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, wouldn't it be more convenient for us to go south."
Dugu smiled and said: "It's not like you don't know my lord's temperament. He is so virtuous and can't change his mind. He will be sad for a while and then pass."
Xin thought for a while and thought that this was the case, so he said with a smile: "It's true. It would be great if the eldest sister was here. She only needs to say a word, and the lord will definitely obey. But now, otherwise
In this way, I led the cavalry to wander around the county town, waiting for opportunities to find fighters."
At this moment, Zhou Jilong rushed up, saluted Dugu and the other two, bowed and said, "I would like to report to the two commanders that the 100,000 Bliss Allied Forces in Jinyuan County have withdrawn from Jinyuan County."
"What's going on?" Dugu asked doubtfully.
Zhou Jilong shook his head: "The general doesn't understand either, but early this morning when we led the army to prepare to pretend to attack Jinyuan County, we found that the people inside were already empty. At first, my subordinates thought it was a trick, so they sent people to investigate.
Afterwards, it was discovered that all the 100,000 Paradise Coalition troops had withdrawn."
Xin Ke took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "How long has it been since you found out that they all left?"
"Two hours." Zhou Jilong replied quickly.
Xin Ke hurriedly took two steps, but stopped before taking the third step.
Dugu smiled bitterly: "Do you still want to chase them?"
Xinke nodded: "I have that idea, but after thinking about it, we have missed the best opportunity. I'm afraid they have almost arrived in Xuzhou now. Damn, I didn't expect that the goose pecked my eyes out all day long. Yelu
Minghui, we still underestimated him."
Dugu also nodded: "I think they probably slipped away quietly in the middle of the night. No, Yelu Minghui must have been well prepared when he left like this. I'm afraid the same happened in Dudong County and Zhuli County.
Same. When someone comes, please notify the troops on the central and southern fronts immediately and ask them to pay attention."
Xinke was very depressed. Although he had never thought about eating these 100,000 troops, the thought of the other party leaving so easily right under his nose inevitably made Xinke feel frustrated.
Dugu laughed, patted Xin Ke on the shoulder and said: "Xin Shuai, now that the Paradise Alliance has withdrawn, isn't it clear for us to go to Pingkou Mountain? Hey, why don't we hurry up and prepare for this favor?"
After waving to Zhou Jilong, Dugu said with a smile: "Zhou Jilong, go and prepare. Well, let the soldiers below run for twenty miles first and look like they are marching in a hurry. Don't let others see the flaws.
.”
Zhou Jilong understood and ran out quickly.
Xinke rolled his eyes helplessly, Dugu's gangster was indeed the same as before.
An hour later, Dugu and Xinke led 50,000 infantrymen toward Pingkou Mountain. Since it was just a superficial effort, they naturally had to perform better. With more soldiers, it would look at least more majestic.
If nothing else, it's just a marching exercise, and Dugu is very clear about this.
"Song Zhong, didn't I ask you to do something on the armor? Why do you only see traces of smoke and fire?" As he was preparing to send out troops, seeing that the appearance of the soldiers was somewhat different from what he had imagined, Dugu couldn't help but asked with dissatisfaction.
.
Song Zhong, the commander of the personal soldiers, quickly stepped forward and said: "Commander, we have tried our best. The traces of fireworks are easier to get, but it is not so easy to get some blood stains on the armor. The enemy troops on the opposite side have already
Escape, there are no birds or animals here, and the soldiers can't do anything."
Dugu frowned, this was a problem, and he seemed to have neglected it.
Long Zhishan quickly approached Dugu's ear and whispered: "Commander, aren't there still hundreds of prisoners of war in our military camp? Keeping them there is a waste of food. Besides, we have to send people to them every day.
Why bother being a bodyguard?"
Dugu understood, and immediately said with a smile: "Boy, you are smart. Song Zhong, there seem to be more than 300 prisoners of war, right? Well, leave an integer of one hundred, and bring the rest to me for the soldiers to take action.
faster."
The letter was engraved on one side and said: "Commander Du, how can you kill prisoners of war so openly and justly? If this reaches the ears of the lord and mistress, I am afraid that he will be punished."
