The Hetao army finally crossed the river. Although the 50,000-thousand-thousand-thousand naval division of Chuanbai Shinda of the Eastern Japanese Empire had been harassing and sniping along the river, the 20,000-thousand-thousand naval division of Anning Hou Aibin stationed troops in the upper reaches of Shouzhou, so that Chuanbai Shinda did not dare to give it a go.
, and all the cavalry from Fengjing were mobilized near Shouzhou, and circled around Shouzhou City. Under such circumstances, neither the Fourteenth Guards nor Kawabaiki Shinda dared to take it lightly. Even so, the Hetao was still
It took a whole day to cross the river.
"Shouzhou, or Linzhou?" Xuanji pointed at the map and looked at Haotian with slanted eyebrows.
Haotian held his chin in dismay, tilted his head and looked in the direction of Shouzhou, heaved a sigh of relief and said: "Forget it, who knows when Cheng Xianqing will be able to come back. Although Shouzhou is easy to attack and difficult to defend, there are some things in the city after all.
There are 100,000 defenders, and there are 50,000 naval troops from Kawamoto Shinoda outside. I don’t doubt the combat effectiveness of our army, but what are the benefits of taking Shouzhou? Leave it to my old father-in-law, he will be useless if he holds it.
.Besides, if the loss is too great, it may affect the strength of our subsequent attacks."
"Then, just sweep across Yangzhou Road?" Xuanji asked.
Haotian smiled and said: "That's right. Haha, when Cheng Xianqing turned the territory of San Francisco upside down, his hometown was also turned upside down by us. Treat others with their own way, probably
That's it, I don't know if Li Tieming and Song Zhengfeng will thank us."
Xuanji said solemnly: "That is necessary. Good people like us who are willing to help others without asking for anything in return will be welcomed no matter where they are."
Luo Xiang continued: "However, the Yangzhou Road is very mountainous and hilly, and our cavalry has little room to display its combat effectiveness."
Haotian laughed and said: "With Du Commander here and the more than 100,000 infantry in our hands, it is enough to sweep across the empty Yangzhou Road. As for the cavalry, it is better to bring 50,000. I respect you."
Feng Jing is fully armored, but he still doesn't wear a helmet as always. I don't know when he developed this bad virtue. None of the generals in Hetao have the habit of wearing helmets. Even in siege battles, unless Haotian gives repeated orders,
, Dugu and others put on their helmets. However, as soon as Haotian walked away, Dugu must have thrown the helmet somewhere unknown. As for Xing Ke, this astonishingly sturdy general who is born with supernatural powers but has good luck.
It makes people speechless. As long as he is motivated to kill, he might strip off his armor and kill him with his double-edged battle ax naked.
According to Feng Jing's account, this was because without armor, his long hair would fly when the breeze blew, making him look extremely handsome. Haotian was speechless at that time.
"Lord, what's your order?" Feng Jing got off his horse and said in a deep voice.
Haotian stepped forward, patted Feng Jing on the shoulder and said, "Why are you so serious? You look so old-fashioned. If your eldest sister sees it, she will definitely be unhappy."
Feng Jing smiled slightly: "As long as the eldest sister sees me, she will be happy."
"Well, who calls you his precious brother?" Haotian said with a smile, but then his face became serious: "You still need to stay here. Cheng Xianqing may come back at any time, and Pinglang is still guarding Raozhou City. No matter what
Whether it's Zhu Zhaominghui or Pinglang, it's not a good thing. I don't trust others. I just put you here. Before Cheng Xianqing's army returns, you must block all connections between Yangzhou Road and Huaishui. You can't let a single person on Yangzhou Road
Rats passed through here. No matter what method you use on the side of Hirō and Konoe 14, if they make any move, you will know what to do."
Feng Jing said nonchalantly: "Whatever. The central and western areas of Yangzhou Road are all hilly, and it is not the territory for my cavalry. But my lord, you have to move faster, otherwise when Cheng Xianqing's army comes back, or Ping Lang
Decisively abandon Raozhou and retreat to Yangzhou Road, I can't stop him."
Haotian had a headache. He just said that Fengjing was too old-fashioned, but as soon as he changed his mind, he suddenly became such a rogue. Oh, what a headache.
After thinking about it, Haotian still felt that he was unable to educate this group of people. Forget it, he should try his best to return to the Hetao as early as possible and let God have a headache.
"Military advisor, you and your husband should plan a specific battle plan. The force to be used is our 200,000 troops going south. Try not to have any blind spots or any fish that slip through the net. Wherever the army has passed, I will let Cheng Xianqing come back.
When I was there, I couldn’t even see a single hair." Haotian said with a gloomy face.
Xuanji had already made up his mind, and when Haotian asked, he naturally started talking: "The land of seven states on Yangzhou Road, the southernmost is Linzhou, and the other six states are arranged opposite each other. Among them, Lonely Hills is located in Ruizhou, Jinzhou
At the junction of the four states of Meizhou and Guazhou, it is deserted and has no way to supply supplies. It is impossible for the army to pass. Therefore, we have two options. One is to divide our troops. After sweeping Linzhou, we divide our troops into two groups, all the way from Jinzhou.
Going north, all the way in the direction of Ruizhou, the two armies met at the junction of Meizhou and Guazhou in the northernmost part of the Lonely Hills."
Haotian said flatly: "It is not advisable to divide the troops. The total number of troops we dispatched this time is less than 200,000. If we divide the troops, then each army will only be around 100,000. Although Yangzhou Road is empty, there are still 10,000 troops in Guazhou
Cheng Dong’s more than 100,000 soldiers and the Raozhou Pinglang Army are also watching with eager eyes. Moreover, this is the home base of the Holy Sect of Paradise, and we must sweep this place away with force, otherwise we may be in danger if we fall into a bitter battle."
Xuanji smiled: "That's good, now we have only one road. That is to sweep from Linzhou from west to east, then go north from Ruizhou to Guazhou, circle around the lonely hills, sweep around Yangzhou Road and then return
Jinzhou. If we are fast enough, it only takes twenty days at most. In this case, we should be able to clear Yangzhou Road before Cheng Xianqing comes back."
Haotian asked: "Why not go north from Jinzhou? The cavalry from Fengjing and Xingeng can still help us?"
"Because the Hirang army is in Raozhou and Shouzhou, there are also 100,000 Japanese soldiers of the 14th Guards. There are no false soldiers under the reputation. Moreover, if Hirang can stand firm in the Qingfeng army, he must have some real ability.
.If when we march into Jinzhou, he decisively abandons Raozhou and enters Meizhou, and then orders Wan Chengdong, one of the Bliss Saints in Guazhou, to help, it will not be an easy task for us to crack this hard nut.
."
"That's true." Haotian smiled lightly: "Then the military advisor will give the order."
Xuanji was not polite and said in a deep voice: "Mother Qingcheng, the cavalry under your command mobilized two ten thousand cavalry detachments to block the border between Linzhou and Jinzhou. The two ten thousand cavalry detachments went down the river and started from the river.
Arriving directly at the coast of the East China Sea, outflanking Linzhou, our 140,000-strong army was able to crush them. We advanced slowly, not even a blade of grass could grow."
Haotian said nonchalantly: "You can make the arrangements, military advisor. But remember, our time is limited, so don't waste too much time here."
Xuanji also nodded and said: "This subordinate understands. However, our army of 140,000 must be divided. Otherwise, this state is so vast and we don't know how much time it will take."
Luo Xiang also wanted to see what Xuanji was capable of, so he said with a smile: "Commander, we don't have much time, so you don't need to show off, right?"
Xuanji didn't take it seriously. Although he and Luo Xiang were half the age difference, they had been working together for nearly four years, and they were already close friends. He naturally knew that Luo Xiang hoped that he could show off more in front of Haotian.
, then he pondered for a while and said: "Linzhou is long and narrow from east to west. The widest point is only 180 miles, and the narrowest point is only less than 100 miles. Our 140,000 army is organized into 150,000 households. Except for the reservation of our formation,
In addition to the 40,000 people and 10,000 cavalry, the remaining 100,000 households can be completely dispersed, with a certain distance between each army, and sorted out from west to east."
"Military advisor, you'd better tell me the specific operation plan in one breath. Brothers can't wait any longer." Dugu said impatiently.
Haotian laughed and said, "How come Du Shuai is still so anxious?"
Dugu laughed loudly and said, "Can you not be anxious? The thought of killing all those bastards from the Holy Sect of Paradise makes me extremely excited."
Xuanji naturally knew how virtuous these people were, and his blood boiled when he talked about fighting and killing people, so he explained his deployment in detail.
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Dugu said with a smile: "In that case, I will personally lead ten thousand soldiers to set off first. There are military advisors and gentlemen beside my lord, and Linzhou does not have the regular troops of the Holy Sect of Paradise, so it should not be possible
Any danger."
Xue Sha had the same tone. After saying that, the two ignored Haotian at all and dragged their team away. Before leaving, the two actually left their marching staff member Li Donggao and You Jisun with Haotian.
, euphemistically saying that his march is difficult, it is much safer to let the two scribes stay with Haotian. Haotian knows without thinking that the two of them must not want to listen to the nagging of Li Donggao and You Jisun, so they simply put this
Throw the burden on yourself.
Haotian is not stupid either. He also hates the nagging of these sarcastic scholars. You Jisun is even better. After all, this person has experienced the disaster in Youyun Sixteen States, and his thoughts are not so stubborn. However,
Li Donggao had the same virtues as his senior brother Chen Han, plus Meng Xiaoting, Haotian got a headache just thinking about it.
"Forget it." Haotian said with some dejection: "Let's go."
Xue Qingcheng also jumped out: "Husband, the matter of outflanking Linzhou is too important, and the generals under me are not very smart."
"Clan leader," Thies and others all had resentful expressions on their faces.
Xue Qingcheng glared at them fiercely, and several of them quickly lowered their heads. Xue Qingcheng continued: "Therefore, I am going to lead the army myself to avoid any accidents."
Haotian's head drooped again: "Okay, whatever you say will be yours. Be careful."
Xue Qingcheng was overjoyed, put on her mask, jumped on the horseback and left in a hurry. Ubanzhu turned his head and quickly jumped on the horseback. Ananda Wangmei and others also followed the same example, except Ci Liuzeng.
Dan's mind was not very bright. When everyone had left, he finally realized what he was doing. He raised his head and said, "Why am I the only one left?"
"Why do these people in the Bloody Plateau seem to be going crazy when they talk about fighting?"
It’s your turn. It seems that the important responsibility of protecting the lord can only fall on you.”
Ci Liu Zeng Dan said helplessly: "I obey my orders."
Haotian also got on his horse, flags fluttering, and he immediately regained his original mental state. He roared loudly and pointed his horse whip: "Soldiers, we are going to war!"
Haotian came this time with the intention of killing all the Holy Sect of Paradise, so he would not show any mercy along the way. From Tiaoshun County in the west of Linzhou all the way to the east, as long as the Hetao army passed by
, there must be blood flowing all over the land. However, there will not be mountains of corpses, because Haotian has ordered that everyone should be buried in peace. No matter what they have done before, no matter whether they have betrayed their ancestors, but,
After all, they were once citizens of the Celestial Empire. When they died, they should be buried in peace as much as possible.
"They can run away if they want. Even if they escape to Ruizhou, it doesn't matter. We will still chase them. As for the Lonely Hills, don't worry about them. It's not the time for us to enter that place yet." Sit.
On horseback, Haotian said nonchalantly.
Along the way eastward, Haotian's army only killed people, and they kept killing people, but they never stopped killing. In the eyes of the Hetao army, these people were already dead. A nation that dared to betray itself, and the surrounding alien races
A regime that colludes to massacre its own people, and plunders the women of its own country and sends them to other countries for adultery, has long been out of line with human ethics. Such beasts should be killed without mercy.
However, what makes Haotian regretful is that after learning about the arrival of the Hetao army, most of the local officials in Ji Le in Linzhou fled to the Ruizhou area. As for the ordinary parishioners, unless they left everything behind, they would
Their escape speed could not match the advancing speed of the Hetao army. Under such circumstances, although the Lonely Hills were extremely dangerous and strange in the eyes of the people, many Linzhou people still fled here out of fear.
Now is not the time to enter the lonely hills. Each of the seven secret places in China has its own unique charm and danger. The avalanche that may occur at any time on the Bloody Plateau, the Ten Jue Immortal Killing Formation in the Yinfeng Mountains, and the sky full of fantasy sea love.
The fog, the poisonous miasma of the dead forest, the wetland mud of the drowning swamp, the directionlessness of the lost sea, and the ghosts of the lonely hills. Every place is a dangerous place that is difficult for ordinary people to enter. The reason why Wan Chengdong was able to overcome loneliness in the first place
Hilly, because he didn't have any hostility here, and he didn't dare to kill people here. Even so, tens of thousands of soldiers died mysteriously on the road they passed by. Without sufficient preparation, Haotian definitely didn't want to enter here.
.
After all, Qin Shang was born in the martial arts world, and Haotian himself had been to Tianji Valley. Moreover, he maintained a certain respect for the people in the world and the secret traditions in the world. Of course, as long as there are no
If you challenge his bottom line, he will never provoke it.
"Order all soldiers to be careful. Although the Holy Sect of Paradise no longer has regular troops stationed in Linzhou, we still need to pay more attention. When a lion fights a rabbit, you must do your best." Haotian said uneasily.
