The injury of the Minister of War, Tetsujin, has not healed, so his face is still a little pale. There is only some light food on his desk, but the ninety-year-old man has always been in good spirits. Since he sat down, he has been
Chatting with Haotian.
"In the three northeastern countries, Mandan has elite soldiers, Haixi is fighting in the wild, and Baijing is a brave general. Mandan was in power because of Yelu Canghai, who was extremely talented and far-sighted. Therefore, although Mandan only had 16 million people, it still had
There are nearly 800,000 armored men. However, although the Mandan soldiers are well-trained, there are no generals in the country. For example, the current Yelu Chixian, Yelu Minghui and Yelu Zhaochang who died under the hands of the Marquis are all leading the army.
veteran, but their strategic vision and strategizing were slightly lacking. Before they reconciled with Tie Ying, Mandan suffered a lot at the hands of Tie Ying’s famous general Hengshi Hassan, mainly because their commander-in-chief
His abilities were still lacking. However, Yelu Canghai also realized this, so he reconciled with Tie Ying as soon as he took power. While training the army, he also began to cultivate the commanding art of generals. But this did not happen overnight.
What can be done is that the empire is currently weak, so it always suffers losses on the battlefield.
The Hercynian Dynasty was located on the coast of the Sakhalin Sea. The central and northern areas were densely forested, and the eastern coastal areas had harsh environments. In such an environment, the Hercynian people had always been fierce. Their soldiers were extremely barbaric. When they lacked military rations, they
It can even feed on human flesh. Among the countries surrounding our Qingfeng, the culture of Haixi is the most backward. But the northeastern region where Haixi is located has always been the biggest disaster for our Qingfeng before the rise of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms. Mainly because of this
The environment is harsh and there are many ethnic minorities, and these natives are extremely barbaric, and they have to go south to harass them every few years. The reason why the empire built the Great Wall defense line in the Northeast was mainly to prevent the ethnic minorities in the area where Haixi is now. Due to the environment
Due to factors, there are only about nine million people in Haixi. In fact, the land in the south of them, east and north of Shanhaiguan, is quite fertile. However, this area has been at the forefront of wars all year round, so it has not been developed. The soldiers of Haixi are brave.
But they don't know how to adapt. Among the current Haixi generals, there is only one Jin Zongbiao who can still bring it to the table. But Jin Meiliu, the prime minister of Haixi, should not be underestimated. This man is cunning, cunning, cruel and murderous. He massacred the people of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures.
The order was the one he gave first.
As for the Baijing dynasty, although their troops are not as elite as the Mandans and their soldiers are not as barbaric as the Haixi, due to the existence of their commander Cassimbas, Baijing has been the biggest threat to our northern Qingfeng border defense for decades." Sitting.
While sitting in his seat, perhaps a little bored, thinking that Haotian's army was circling outside the Great Wall and the Three Northeastern Kingdoms, Tie Zhen told Haotian in detail about the current situation of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms.
After a pause, seeing Haotian listening attentively, Tie Zhen continued: "Kasimbas can be said to be the most troublesome figure in the Northeast border defense. He has been on the battlefield for nearly sixty years and has never lost a single defeat in his life. Even when I was
When guarding the defense line of the Northeast Great Wall, the best situation is to have a draw with him. This man has a tough character and is a god in using troops. His biggest characteristic is to make decisions before taking action. Once he makes a move, it will definitely be a big deal.
He fights like a chess game, not only with rigorous layout, but also good at discarding pieces. Many times, our generals on the Northeast Great Wall defense line want to eat his discarded pieces because they are greedy for merit, so they are all made dumplings by him. Because of his existence, he worships the capital.
Now there are quite a few high-ranking generals, such as Hejimu'er of the Baijing royal family, Shenji who died in the hands of the marquis, and Yao Jinxi, the garrison commander of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures. If one day the marquis
If you are facing him on the battlefield, the best way is to rely on your superior strength to fight him step by step, or to gather several of the best generals to fight him with wits and courage, otherwise you will have no chance of winning."
Haotian frowned and said: "But with our current national strength, there is no way to concentrate our superior forces to fight him decisively. So what should we do when we encounter him?"
"Defense, resolute defense!" Tie Zhen sighed helplessly: "Cassimbas is particularly cunning. He is particularly good at laying out fishing bait. In many cases, others know clearly that it is fishing bait but they still have to go.
Eat. However, he is not completely without flaws. He also has two fatal flaws. The first is that he is extremely conceited. Since he has been invincible in battles for decades and he has full confidence in his military ability,
He is particularly conceited. If you, Lord Marquis, can seize this shortcoming when you duel with him, then there is no chance of defeating him. The second is that he is too old. Like me, he has spent most of his life
Characters who spent time on the battlefield. Although I am much older than him, because in the war against the Three Northeastern Kingdoms, our side mostly relied on city walls for defense, so he suffered far more injuries than me. Although
When I was young, I had a good foundation, but now that I am older, I will inevitably feel a little unable to do what I want. Alas, maybe he suddenly dies of illness one day, and then I, Qingfeng, will have one less worry."
Haotian smiled. He didn't expect this old man to have such a humorous side. However, this Kasimbas is really a huge trouble. If one day Qingfeng wants to regain the Sixteenth State of Youyun, then this person must be
A huge obstacle. Thinking of this, Haotian couldn't help but worry about his 80,000 cavalry. They had lost contact since they captured Mifeng City that day. However, Haotian didn't think that their entire army was annihilated.
He believed that with the ability to kill three people with blood, they could break out of the siege even if they were ten times the enemy. According to Luo Xianghe Xuanji's estimation, they should be wandering outside the fortress. While escaping the encirclement and suppression of the Three Kingdoms in the Northeast,
He also avoided detection from his own side.
At this moment, a sharp voice suddenly sounded in the hall: "The emperor has arrived!" Haotian and others quickly left the table and knelt down. After a while, Emperor Yinglie entered the hall with the auxiliary king and An Yongchang.
Emperor Yinglie had a smile on his face, but Haotian always felt that he was not particularly happy. But it is no wonder that Qingfeng is in a precarious situation now, and it will not be so easy for anyone who sits on the throne. An Yongchang behind him has a face
He was indifferent and completely devoid of any excitement for the festival. The auxiliary king next to him was just the opposite. His royal dignity was fully displayed in every move he made. And every time he turned his head to An Yongchang, An Yongchang's cold face
There is always a smile. It seems that the relationship between the two is really good.
Emperor Yinglie sat in the first place, raised his hands behind his back, and then said to Tie Zhen: "I wonder how Tie Aiqing's body is recovering?"
Tie Zhen quickly replied: "I thank Your Majesty for your concern. After the personal care of Palace Master Tianfengyu, although my body is still a little uncomfortable, it no longer affects my daily activities."
Emperor Yinglie nodded happily: "In that case, I am relieved. Aiqing has been through four dynasties and is the most virtuous and respected person in Qingfeng. I should not disturb Aiqing's later life, but now the country is in turmoil.
, the country is in turmoil, so I ask you, for the sake of the hundreds of millions of people in China, to hold on."
Tie Zhen was moved, left the table and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty is kind, I am deeply grateful! However, as a minister of Qingfeng, I should devote myself to myself and die. Although I am old, I will definitely not be able to fight with these old bones.
Disappoint His Majesty!"
"The strong wind knows the strength of the grass, and it will wither after the cold years. When the country is in danger, it is thanks to the help of veterans like you. If it were not so, the breeze would have been trampled by the iron hooves of the aliens. If that were the case, I would be shattered to pieces, but I would have no face.
Go and pay homage to our ancestors." Emperor Yinglie said with a long sigh, but his eyes stayed on the people on his right. He actually ignored An Yongchang and the heads of the three major families on the left.
"The emperor is overly worried." Li Tieming and others exchanged glances, and An Yongchang stood up and said: "Although the country is still very tense now, all fronts of Qingfeng have become stable. Above the river, there is my dragon.
The legions are roaming around, and although the three countries outside the Great Wall are powerful, being able to occupy the Sixteenth Province of Youyun is already their limit. Although there are 600,000 troops in the north of the river, with the reconstruction of the Northern Army and the Eastern Army, our army is
The defense force on the south bank of the river has been strengthened. With the help of the Jiaolong Legion, although it is temporarily unable to carry out a strategic counterattack, the defense is more than sufficient. The Xijiang defense line in the south is personally guarded by the commander of the Jingnan Gong Ouyang Jingzhong Army, which can be said to be impregnable. And
Along the Hetao line, there is also Jingbeihou's 300,000-strong army, which has become a nail in the middle of the foreign territory outside the Great Wall. As long as Jingbeihou uses it properly, it will not be difficult for our emperor to regain the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun and the Second Northwest Road."
When Haotian heard this, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. An Yongchang's first two points were simply to attract others, and his real focus was on the third point. Although on the surface he said that he had 300,000 troops, he could alleviate the huge pressure for the court.
pressure, and attempted to regain Hebei Fifth Road. But in fact, it was reminding Emperor Ying that he had now become a huge vassal town comparable to the three major families. If the three major families have accumulated hundreds of years, take the Song family on Yizhou Road as an example
, only an army of 300,000 people. However, Haotian has only risen for half a year, and it has reached such a scale. No one dares to guarantee what will happen in the future. There was a bitter smile in my heart, even though I knew that I rejected the offer of the King of Assistant Government that day.
To win over, he would inevitably face the joint suppression of the Auxiliary King and An Yongchang. But Haotian never expected that An Yongchang's counterattack would come so quickly.
Sure enough, Emperor Yinglie's eyebrows immediately wrinkled, obviously understanding what An Yongchang meant. When he looked at Haotian again, his eyes contained many inexplicable factors. Haotian was dripping with cold sweat and was filled with fear.
Extremely.
"What An Shangshu said is right. We have now passed the most critical period. Although there are still some difficulties, the situation has slowly improved." Tie Zhen suddenly interjected: "Especially Jingbei Hou, not only did he fight back to regain the
They conquered the six prefectures of Hetao, and the army rushed thousands of miles to penetrate into the hinterland of the three northeastern countries, which greatly eased the pressure on our defense line along the river. Such loyal ministers and good generals are truly a blessing to our emperor!"
"As a minister of Qingfeng, I should dedicate myself to serving our emperor!" Haotian said quickly. He naturally understood that Tie Zhen was helping him. As a veteran of the four dynasties, he expected that Emperor Yinglie would not deny him face.
"I know your daring loyalty," Emperor Yinglie said noncommittally, while An Yongchang had a faint smile on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.
