Five hundred and thirtieth chapters father and son quarrel
Chapter 534: Father and son quarrel
After mobilizing morale, Hetao began to prepare for the night battle. Countless piles of firewood were slowly pushed to Juyong Pass. Luo Xiang temporarily found hundreds of pieces of white cloth from the army supplies and tore them into small white ribbons.
Tie it on the forehead of the Hetao soldier.
Blood Kill was about to mobilize his Blood Kill Legion, but Dugu quietly walked up behind him and handed back all the infantry in his Blood Kill Legion to him. There were only 40,000 infantrymen left at the beginning.
Less than 20,000 yuan.
"Commander Blood, the key to victory or defeat depends on you!" Dugu said solemnly.
Xue Sha nodded and said: "Commander Du, please rest assured. I guarantee with my head that I will complete the mission successfully."
At the foot of Yanzhou City, Li Xiaomo, who had been imprisoned by Li Tieming for several days, finally saw his father, Li Tiezhan and Li Xiaoran here. As soon as he saw Li Tieming and others, Li Xiaomo became extremely angry and took the lead in shouting back all the people.
The servant, Li Xiaomo, got angry directly at Li Tieming.
"Father, I don't understand. We are of the same lineage as China. Why did you collude with foreigners to attack Hetao? Have you ever thought about it? It's all about relatives and enemies. Have you forgotten what happened to the Song family that day?
"Li Xiaomo was furious, and his originally handsome and almost demonic face turned red.
Li Tieming gave Li Xiaomo a cold look: "Xiao Mo, pay attention to your tone!"
Li Tiezhan quickly smoothed things over and said: "Xiao Mo, the reason why Brother Wang made such a decision is for the benefit of the family. You should understand how powerful the Hetao is. If the Hetao regains the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun, then
Both his strength and popular prestige will rise to a higher level, and the gap between us and him will become wider and wider. Therefore, we must kill him now, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
Li Xiaoran stood aside silently. He disagreed with his father and uncle's opinions, but now he didn't want to speak, because it would only make the situation even more uncontrollable.
Li Xiaomo snorted coldly and said, "Have you ever thought about such an ending?"
"Are you worried that the six tribes outside the Great Wall will take the opportunity to go south? Then you don't have to worry. With the existence of the Yinfeng Mountains and the natural dangers of the Great River, the alien races outside the Great Wall can only stay on the Fifth Road in Hebei. This situation will last until 619 at most.
The situation reappears. As for Sa Shan, the Scarlet Clan will never let them pass through their territory so easily. Moreover, the Song family in Yizhou will have a headache first. Their existence can help us contain the Song family's movements.
We can definitely take advantage of this opportunity to clear Jiangnan Third Road and Yuzhou Road."
"Xiao Mo, the imperial court is already crumbling. The only pillars of the Qingfeng royal family are Ouyang Jingzhong's Southern Military Region, the marching Eastern Army and the Suzaku Army. However, after this battle, the Imperial Guard Army can basically cancel its designation.
And the Suzaku Legion will definitely be crippled after this battle. The imperial court will not be taken seriously by us."
"The Holy Sect of Paradise has been crippled by Hetao, and now only half of the Zhu Zhao Legion and the Wuyan Legion, which have the most offensive power, are left. Once in Yanzhou, Zhu Zhao and Wuyan will die. No matter what, we absolutely cannot
Allow them to return to Yangzhou Road alive. The four famous generals of Bliss, Yan Lege, surrendered to Hetao, and Minghui have disappeared. If Zhu Zhao, the most cunning, and Wu Yan, the bravest and best at fighting, die in the battle, then only one of the Bliss Holy Cult will be left.
Hirang, why should you support the overall situation?"
"As for the Zhang family in Huaishui, their strength is originally the last among the three major families. If it were not for the existence of Zhang Cangxiong, Zhang Cangzong brothers and Zhang Yuewan, Huaishui would have declined ten years ago. Now, Zhang Yuewan is married to Hetao
, Zhang Cangxiong was killed by his idiot brother, and Zhang Cangzong led the navy to flee like a bereaved dog. The Zhang family has lost the ability to maintain their rule over the Huai River!"
"The Song family is not weak, but with Sa Shan restraining them, they cannot pose a threat to us at all. After we take over the three roads between Dahe and Huai River, namely Yuzhou, Huai River and Yangzhou, we can concentrate all our efforts to solve the problem.
They, and Jinhua Mitsukoshi, are simply not worthy of being on the stage, so they can only bounce around south of the Xijiang River. Now do you understand, as long as the Loop is defeated, the entire China will be an era where our Li family will dominate the world!"
Li Xiaomo smiled coldly: "Father, what you said sounds good. Have you thought about how to implement it? The natural dangers of the river? As long as there are Dongbo, there will never be natural dangers. Instead, the river will become a constraint for our Qinchuan army.
obstacles! Do you think our Qinchuan is still the Qinchuan of 619? At that time, our Qinchuan had more than 300,000 elite troops and 30,000 elite navy. At that time, as long as we displayed our banner, we could at least recruit soldiers within three days.
Two hundred thousand civilians who have received basic military training have joined the army. In half a month, our total military strength can even reach 700,000. And the strategic materials we have in reserve can supply our needs for at least two years. But now, we
Does Qin Chuan still have that strength?"
Li Xiaomo said angrily: "Since we were sneak-attacked by the Li family and ravaged by the Holy Sect of Paradise, our current strength cannot be compared to what it was before. Our current strength can only support the current 400,000 troops.
As for strategic supplies, how much do we have left and how long can we sustain them?"
"Strategic supplies are not a problem. As long as we take over the six prefectures in the Hetao, all the supplies accumulated in the Hetao over the years will fall into our hands. And with the solid rear base in the Hetao, we will have the foundation to compete for world hegemony." Li Tieming
He said calmly.
Li Tiezhan also nodded and said: "Even if there is a shortage of strategic materials, we can definitely adopt the method of supporting war with war."
Li Xiaomo shook his head: "Uncle, my father doesn't understand military affairs, so it's normal for him to do something that's almost a dream. But you are our number one general in Qinchuan, and you should understand that fighting is not just talking.
It depends on strength. I don’t understand why you are so sure that the Hetao will be destroyed because of this!”
"Do you think the Hetao can still make a comeback under such a situation? The garrison at Yumen Pass is only 60,000, while the Tie Ying Qiu Ming coalition forces outside the pass exceed 400,000. Jiayuguan only has 50,000 soldiers, and the total number of Sashan and Rouran Western Region coalition forces
There are also 400,000 troops. The reason why they have not taken these two passes before is just to completely trap Haotian's army in Youyun Sixteen States. Now that they have completely let go, I am afraid it will only take two or three days.
can take down the Great Wall defense line. As for the more than 400,000 elite troops led by Haotian, their combat effectiveness is indeed extraordinary, and they are even the most powerful army in the world today. However, they have repeatedly encountered obstacles at the Juyong Pass. Haotian is now in a dilemma. If
If they don't capture Juyong Pass, the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures they worked so hard to capture will fall into the hands of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms. If they return to aid Hetao, let alone whether it's in time, the Three Northeastern Kingdoms won't let them go. As for the immediate situation,
Yanzhou, plus the 100,000 soldiers who have just arrived from Dongbo, our total military strength has exceeded 500,000, Yanzhou is about to be conquered!"
Li Xiaomo rarely argued with his father, but that was only because Li Tieming rarely made mistakes in the past. It was precisely because he rarely made mistakes that the Qinchuan Li family became the head of the three vassals of the empire over the years.
But now, Li Xiaomo doesn't think Li Tieming is right at all.
"Father, you don't seem to remember Situ Lie's performance at Fengling Ferry during the Battle of Hukou. At that time, Situ Lie only had 10,000 soldiers, but Hengshi Hasan's 100,000 soldiers were blocked on the north bank of the ferry.
Over the years, Situ Lie has been sitting at Yumen Pass, and he has been able to deal with Tie Ying Qiu Ming's provocations with ease. Yumen Pass is one of the four great passes of the Great Wall, and behind Situ Lie there are millions of people in Shazhou. With emergency mobilization, at least he can increase the number of people.
Fifty thousand troops. Tie Ying Qiu Ming is not good at attacking cities at all, and the Uma soldiers are not capable of taking the stage at all. I doubt their ability."
"Chun Jian Shang is one of the generals who followed Xue Sha and others to fight outside the Great Wall and survived the Battle of Hukou. Don't you think about it, except Chun Jian Shang, which of the leading generals in Hetao is not a direct descendant of Haotian?
Don’t forget, the 50,000 soldiers of the Rock Legion are still stationed in the northeastern part of the Bloody Plateau, and Loulan and other countries among the thirty-six countries in the Western Region have long been determined to join the Hetao, the most powerful pass in the world, how can we just ignore it!"
"As early as twenty years ago, Bian Zhongxing was a famous iron wall in the Xuanwu Legion. His defensive skills were unparalleled in the world. The Rock Legion was brought up by Bian Zhongxing after he became famous in the Battle of Jizhou in Hetao.
Veteran base. You should understand that among the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Hetao, the Panshi Corps is the only one that focuses entirely on defense. Bian Zhongxing is also the only general among the five generals in the Hetao who has always been in the Hetao.
There is also Chu Xiangcheng in Shangyanzhou City, how easy is it to capture Yanzhou?"
Li Tieming laughed: "Xiao Mo, you think so highly of them. Li Xiao, Feng Jing's right-hand man, Zhan Shutang, Haotian's earliest personal captain. These are the only few in Hetao who can control one side.
General. The combat effectiveness of the two legions under their command is also considerable. But look, the 50,000 soldiers of the Qilin Legion died in the battle of Qingyun. Relying on the city wall, they were unable to hold out under the attack of Zhu Zhao's 200,000 troops.
After two days, what's the point of talking about elites? As for Dingzhou, there are Li Xiao's Red Snake Legion and a Phoenix Dance Legion, but so what, the city will be defeated in two days. Humph, even Qin Tianyi and others set themselves on fire
Death."
Li Xiaomo laughed angrily and said unwillingly: "Father, it seems that you don't understand the real reason for the fall of Dingzhou at all."
"The reason why the Qilin Legion was completely wiped out was because there was not enough preparation time and Zhu Zhao was caught off guard. The defense of Qingyun County is extremely weak, and defending the city is not much better than fighting in the field. But in such a situation
Next, the attacking army of 200,000 Zhu Zhao and others were destroyed by more than half. As for the massacre that followed, it stimulated the nerves of the senior officials in Hetao. Have you ever thought about it? This is the hometown of Haotian and most of the senior officials in Hetao. As a result, Zhu Zhao was killed
He Bicheng and the others killed all of them, huh, the gain outweighs the loss! As for Dingzhou, if it weren't for Li Xiao and the garrison in the city who wanted to cover the people's retreat, and if it weren't for Li Xiao who wanted to protect Haotian's two sons from leaving, you might have
Can you take Dingzhou so easily?"
"Father, look at the current resistance of Yanzhou, Qingyun and Dingzhou, which has bought a lot of time for the people of Hetao to retreat. Look, with Yanzhou as the center, there is probably not a single person left in the entire Hetao.
The people of Hetao are alone. Taking advantage of the period of Dingzhou's resistance, Hetao has completed the work of strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness, and has all the people either evacuated into the mountains or retreated to the state capital. There are no worries for the people in Hetao.
You can completely devote yourself to the battle."
After a pause, Li Xiaomo continued: "Father, don't think that Juyong Pass is really indestructible! Juyong Pass is mainly to defend against enemy forces outside the wall, and Haotian also has Dugu Yuming under his command. This person is the well-deserved No. 1 in the entire China.
A master of attacking cities and territories. Father, if Hetao really learns about the death of Qin Tianyi in battle, then we will be able to hear the news that Juyong Pass has been captured in at most two days."
Li Tieming smiled coldly: "Hetao, does it have that kind of strength? Besides, besides Juyongguan there is also Shanhaiguan."
"Shanhaiguan, father, have you forgotten the existence of Fu Ruoshui?"
Li Tieming's face was ashen. He knew that his son was very talented in eloquence, but he didn't expect that he would make him unable to step down like this. Turning around, Li Tieming snorted: "Xiao Mo, we have come to this step now.
There is absolutely no way out. At least, I don’t think Haotian has the possibility of making a comeback under such circumstances.”
Li Xiaomo raised his neck and said: "Father, have you ever thought about how many people will suffer in the war as a result, and these can be avoided."
"One general achieves great success, let alone founding a country and proclaiming himself emperor! For the great cause of our Li family, what does it matter if a few more people die? Which successful person does not have thousands of bones at his feet!" Li Tieming said disdainfully:
"Besides, the current Hetao is not something we can compete with on our own. If we don't destroy the Hetao, our Qinchuan will be swallowed up by the Hetao sooner or later."
"Father, our starting points are different, and our views are naturally different. The Hetao is indeed very powerful. If it is unavoidable, we will have a battle with the Hetao. However, we have a good relationship with the Hetao over the years, and we have basically followed the same path.
, even if the two parties disagree due to position factors, we will have other ways to mediate the relationship between us." Li Xiaomo patted Li Xiaoran on the shoulder and said: "Second brother, you did the right thing, at least you did it for us.
Qin Chuan left a little chance."
"Where are you going?" Li Tieming shouted angrily when he saw Li Xiaomo turning around to leave.
"Go to Juyongguan and find Haotian."
At this moment, Li Bicheng rushed in with a panicked expression. When he saw Li Tieming, he immediately said loudly: "Master, Hetao conquered Juyong Pass this morning, and all the defenders of Yao Jinxi and the pass died in the battle!"
