Chapter 474 Details of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms
"Zhang Nao, when we go on an expedition here, you must clearly calculate all the munitions for the army. In a war, logistics is all about logistics. As a munitions officer, you should understand this truth. This time is no different from the battle in the southeast. No matter what we lack at that time, we can provide it to Huai
The water reaches out, and the battlefield is centered on the Huai River. But this is different. Everything needs to be transported from the Hetao, so your logistics coordination here is even more important." In the combat command room, Haotian and Luo Xiang looked at
Map said to Zhang Nao, the chief quartermaster next to him.
Zhang Nao gave a military salute: "Don't worry, my lord, if there is a problem with logistics, you can just chop off my Zhang Nao's head!"
Bian Zhongxing said at the same time: "If something really goes wrong, what's the use of cutting off your head? Let's handle the matter better. My lord is going to conquer the Sixteenth Province of Youyun, and I and Mr. Chu are still sitting in the Hetao. What do you need?
Just ask."
"Yes!" Zhang Nao said. Bian Zhongxing's prestige in the Hetao army is very high, even higher than that of Xue Sha and others at the same level. Although he is selfless and strict in military law, he is not unreasonable. The soldiers in Hetao respect him more.
Too reverent.
Chu Xiangcheng opened his mouth and said: "After we set out to conquer the Sixteenth Province of Youyun, our elite troops were basically exhausted. The last time the commander-in-chief conquered Sashan, he found that the opponent's behavior was a bit strange. I am worried that Sashan will probably attack when our main force leaves.
After the border, we should unite with the troops to attack Qingning Road. We must be careful and guard against it."
Luo Xiang nodded in agreement and said: "Xiangcheng is right. There is no room for error in the Bloody Plateau, but our troops are limited. In this way, we secretly order Mu Shan and Lingxian, if an accident really happens, the Bloody clan will move north and temporarily retreat.
Go to the northern part of the Blood Plateau. The terrain here is rugged and easy to defend and difficult to attack. They can at least sustain it until our reinforcements arrive."
Haotian said worriedly: "I'm afraid Elder Lingxian won't agree."
Luo Xiang said flatly: "This is just a reminder to them. If something like this really happens, I believe that with Lingxian's decisiveness, she will know what to do."
Feng Jing interjected: "I think it is necessary to strengthen the surveillance of the Li family. Among the three major families, Li Tieming has always been known for his scheming. Although the Li family is now greatly reduced in strength, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Li Xiao
Brother Mo is also a leader among the younger generation, so we must be careful."
Xin Ke followed up and said: "I think the Song family in Yizhou should be worried most. Song Junlin and his son are both virtuous. They are stupider than pigs and have loftier ambitions. There seems to be nothing in the world that they dare not do.
It is better for the Qilin Army to stay in Dingzhou instead of being dragged to Anzhou or Shazhou to serve as a reserve force for the Eastern Expedition."
Luo Xiang and others nodded in agreement. Although Xin Ke looked rough, he was actually as careful as a hair. In the Hetao Eastern Expedition, a single move affected the whole body, not only the foreign tribes beyond the Great Wall and the Eastern Japanese Dynasty, but also the Sashan Ten
There are eight or nine societies coming to intervene, but no one can tell what the Song and Li families south of the river and the Qingfeng royal family are thinking.
Haotian said cautiously: "This battle is related to the continuation of the bloodline of our Shenzhou clan, and its importance is self-evident. We need to consider every aspect carefully and not let any mistakes go."
Luo Xiang's eyes turned to the map again, and he said while moving his fingers: "The total number of troops stationed by the three Northeastern countries in Youyun Sixteen Prefectures is about 550,000. Mandan and Baijing each have 200,000, and Haixi has 150,000. Because
After the war, the total strength and quality of the soldiers of the three Northeastern countries have declined. Now the total strength of the Mandan is around 700,000, of which about 200,000 are local troops, and only about 300,000 elite troops are left. However, Yelv Chixian has
Most of the 200,000 troops were Mandan elites. Among them, Yelu Chixian personally commanded 150,000 troops to garrison Tongzhou, and Leng Fangbu led 50,000 soldiers to garrison Xuanzhou. The main generals were Yelu Chixian, Yelu Wanhong, and Yelu Chengfeng.
, Yelu Zhangqiu and Leng Fangbu.”
"Yelu Minghui had been transferred back to the country to think about his mistakes, and his right-hand man Yelu Bianhuang was also isolated and examined. However, after Miyun City was captured by us, Yelu Canghai has activated Yelu Minghui and the two of them. Now Yelu
Minghui led 150,000 soldiers and was stationed in the southwest of Mandan to guard against our cavalry in Miyun City. Yelu Wanxi led 100,000 soldiers and was stationed near Ningbian City in the north of Tongzhou. They were Yelu Chixian's reserve force. However, Ningbian City
The Jiming Post Road in the south is relatively rugged and difficult to navigate, which is not conducive to the passage of large armies. Feng Shuai and Xin Shuai are very clear about this."
Feng Jing and Xin Ke smiled cheerfully. Of course they knew that back then, the 80,000 cavalrymen in Hetao entered the Great Wall through the gap here, and finally fought thousands of miles away in the decisive battle at Hukou. In fact, the defense line of the Northeast Great Wall is thousands of miles long, with countless gaps. But except for
Apart from Shanhaiguan and Jiayuguan, there is a smooth road. The rest of the road is either rugged and difficult for vehicles and horses to pass, or complete beacon towers have been built. A team of one or two thousand people is okay, but as long as the number of troops exceeds 20,000, after passing through these
It was extremely troublesome when there was a gap. The reason why Feng Jing and others were able to successfully break through the fortress back then was, in addition to the caution of a few people, the unspeakable luck and Mandan's carelessness. But now, even if Feng Jing himself is
Even if he personally leads the troops, he can't be sure that God will sneak out from here without knowing it.
"The Mandan's Guards Corps is still stationed in the royal capital Blackstone City. This is the only mobile force left in the Mandan and will not be used easily."
"The total strength of Beijing is less than 600,000. In addition to the 200,000 troops stationed on the Beiyuan Road led by Hekimur, and the troops stationed in places other than the country, the mobile troops that can be mobilized are about 150,000. Among them, Yukelonsi
He led 50,000 soldiers to garrison the Yinzhou Dahe defense line, Baijing prince Trikbus led 50,000 soldiers to sit in Jiayuguan, and Hekimul's 100,000 troops were parked in the area bordering the western part of Zhizhou and Taihang Road, ready to assist the Mandan at any time.
The generals under his command include Romankos, Doda, Nolanzuo and Tungulas."
"Cassimbas and Yao Jinxi?" Haotian asked, twisting his head. No one in the world dares to underestimate Kasimbas, and Yao Jinxi is a famous general in Beijing who is as famous as Hekimur, so naturally he cannot be tolerated.
ignore.
Luo Xiang smiled and said: "Cassimbas is about to die. After the Battle of Xuzhou, Cassimbas was already dying, but he was still able to hold on at that time. After returning to Beijing, he basically never became a marshal.
Half a step away from the house, he spends most of his time lying in bed. But I heard that he is still quite sane, but the battle in the southeast was too big, and Pulski II lost confidence in him. Haha, plus
As a result of our divorce plan, if nothing happens, Cassimbas will remain in his hospital bed."
Haotian frowned and said, "Could it be that he deliberately released false news?"
Luo Xiang shook his head decisively and said: "Impossible. I personally verified it several times and found that he is indeed in power. However, Cassimbas is a military god of the generation. When the life and death of Beijing is at stake, as long as he is still alive, he will definitely
Return to power. As for today, he is now the deputy general of Trikebus, the garrison envoy of Juyongguan. But we must be careful about this person, Huan Fuchuan."
"Huan Fu Zhuan?" Haotian asked doubtfully.
Luo Xiang nodded: "There are many famous generals in the Beijing army, and Huan Fuchuan is a famous general of the previous era. He and Cassimbas can be considered people of the same era, but because Cassimbas's brilliance is too great, he will be
Covering up the past. But this man is indeed a good soldier, and he is definitely no better than Haruka Jinxi. Although Pulski II hated Cassimbas's defeat in the southeast, he still followed his advice and sent troops to the capital.
All nearly 200,000 mobile troops were mobilized and stationed in Shensha City, and the leader is Huan Fuchuan."
Haotian nodded, indicating that he already knew, and asked Luo Xiang to continue.
"There are only 150,000 troops stationed in Haixi on Donghai Road. Among them, Jin Zongbiao led 100,000 troops to garrison in the Jiaozhou area of Lianzhou in the south of Donghai Road. His deputy general was his uncle Jin Qiliang, and his subordinate general Jin Tun
But there are three people, Tuwu Dashan and Jin Qimai. Jin Zongwu led 50,000 soldiers to garrison Shanhaiguan, and his deputy was Jin Xiangliang."
Chu Xiangcheng tilted his head and looked at Luo Xiang with a sideways smile, "Jin Xiangliang?"
Luo Xiang nodded, with a smile on his face: "Yes, it's that Jin Xiangliang."
Haotian and others were a little confused, and Xinke even asked with a full beard: "Do you know this person, sir?"
Chu Xiangcheng laughed: "Not only do they know each other, the two of them are also enemies. Haha, Jin Xiangliang, who was a rookie in Haixi's army at that time, even Cassimbas praised him as the most dazzling general among the young generation outside the Great Wall, but...
He was defeated by Mr. Luo in a battle and retired from the world sadly. Unexpectedly, more than twenty years later, he actually came out again."
Feng Jing was very interested. He didn't expect Luo Xiang to be so prosperous on the battlefield back then. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Can you explain it in more detail?"
Luo Xiang pinched his beard indifferently and said lightly: "Back then, I was ordered to inspect the Shanhaiguan area. It happened that more than 100,000 troops in Haixi were attacking the key points. Jin Xiangliang personally commanded 60,000 soldiers to guard the central army. At that time, the defender resolutely avoided the battle.
It goes without saying that I was young and vigorous back then, and led the three hundred light cavalry who came from Tiandu Shengjing to unexpectedly attack the camp in daylight, and were lucky enough to defeat it. The Shanhaiguan guard took the opportunity to send troops and won a great victory."
Chu Xiangcheng added: "When the 300 light cavalry led by him came back, there were less than 100 people left, but Jin Xiangliang's 60,000-strong Chinese army trampled on each other, leaving more than 10,000 corpses.
There are still more than 7,000 people captured. But I didn't expect him to come out again now, and I don't know how much progress he has made after living in seclusion for twenty years."
Luo Xiang said with contempt: "Jin Xiangliang's name is just in vain. Cassimbas praised him so much back then, just because there were no outstanding young generals outside the Great Wall at that time. People like Huan Fuzhuan and Yelu Zhaochang were already quite young at that time.
, Heji Mu'er, Yao Jinxi, Jin Zongbiao and others did not grow up at that time. Humph, I can defeat him twice. But the difference is that he was able to escape with his life last time. This time
This time there is absolutely no escape.”
Chu Xiangcheng smiled mysteriously: "Actually, there's no need for that. Don't you think it's more appropriate to let him become a myth outside the Great Wall?"
Luo Xiang looked at Chu Xiangcheng in confusion, suddenly slammed the table, and laughed: "Xiangcheng, when it comes to being cunning, I'm still not as good as you."
Haotian and others were very puzzled, but looking at the two old men who had similar minds, they really didn't know what to say. On the contrary, Hao'an, who was concentrating on Chu Xiangcheng's penholder on the table, was frightened by Luo Xiang.
He jumped, his feet slipped and he almost fell to the ground. Haotian quickly picked up his son. When he saw Xin Jiao behind him holding Hao Jin and playing with a small bow, he couldn't care about him at all, so he had to hold Hao An in his arms.
.Hao'an was now very familiar with his father. He huddled in Haotian's arms, biting a piece of clothing and began to sleep.
"The total military strength in Haixi is less than 550,000, and the ethnic minorities in the Xing'an Mountains in the south of the country and the Sakhalin coast in the east have always been tough. The relationship between Haixi and these barbarian peoples is not harmonious, so they cannot go to the East Sea.
There are too many troops to be mobilized. However, Lidburg is only more than 200 miles away from Shanhaiguan, and it is connected by pipelines along the way. Lidburg now has more than 150,000 soldiers from Haixi. If they go at full speed, they can reach it in two days at most.
Arrive at Shanhaiguan."
"Tell me more details, especially the ethnic minorities in Haixi." Haotian pinched his chin out of habit, but when he raised his hand, he bumped into Hao'an in his arms, so he had to take advantage of the situation and rub Hao'an's little buttocks.
I took a photo.
"Among the three Northeastern countries, Haixi is undoubtedly the weakest. However, historically, the land where Haixi is located has been the biggest threat to our dynasty." Chu Xiangcheng opened his mouth and said: "My lord, you should know
, for the six tribes outside the Great Wall, if there were not the natural barrier of Duanhun Ridge, from the central part of Haixi in the east to the Rouran territory in the west and even the Obsburg Empire further west, it would be an endless plain. But in
The eastern part of Haixi is rugged mountains and hills, and the Xing'an Mountains divides the territory of Haixi into the north and the south. Liedeburg is located in the embrace of Xing'an Mountains, the Great Wall Defense Line, and the green waters of the boundary river with Korea.
中. The productivity level of Hercynian has always been backward, so both ordinary people and clans and tribes are relatively barbaric and backward. In fact, the soil of the plain where Liedeburg is located is quite fertile, but the productivity level of Hercynian is low and the places that can be developed
Not many. As for the clans and tribes in their country, compared with the people in Haixi, the gap between these people is even greater than the difference between our Celestial Dynasty and Haixi. Many of their tribes are still in a slave society, and some are even still drinking blood and growing hair.
Slash-and-burn farming. However, these people are quite powerful in combat. In the first few hundred or even thousands of years we have seen them in Haixi, they have always been the biggest enemies of our Shenzhou clan. Therefore, the Northeast has always been an important border defense area for the empire."
"These clans and tribes have always been unruly. Except for some that are relatively civilized near the core of Haixi territory, the rest are quite barbaric. Their clans and tribes are basically equivalent to independent kingdoms and do not buy Haixi's account at all. The Haixi royal family has repeatedly
After the conquest failed, they had to compromise with the other party. Haixi had more than a name jurisdiction over it, but the other party did not pay anything. Haixi recruited troops from their tribes and adopted the mercenary system. These people are particularly powerful in combat.
, the Haidong Qing Corps, which has the strongest combat effectiveness in Haixi, is composed of them."
Haotian pondered for a long time and then said: "Well, it seems that Haixi is the weakest link among them, we can target here."
Luo Xiang said: "That is all a matter for the future. My lord, the two commanders, are you interested in deducing the trend of the war?"
Haotian and others all smiled when they heard this, and several heads moved to the map at the same time.
