If it were normal times, Guanying would not argue with Li Xiao, but it was rare for the old brothers who came out together to get together, so he said with a blushing face: "If it were the previous Red Snake Legion, its combat effectiveness would definitely be nothing to say.
But you don’t want to think about how long it took for your Red Snake Legion to recover just now? But no matter what, it is definitely better than the Goryeo soldiers."
Li Xiao's face looked better, but he still said angrily: "How can I compare my Red Snake Army with Goryeo? Those sticks of theirs are nothing."
Zhu Qianping participated in the battle to destroy the country in Haixi. When he heard this, he was deeply touched: "I used to hear that I would rather be an opponent like a god than a teammate like a pig. At that time, I didn't understand.
What do you mean, I finally understood it later. The combat effectiveness of those Korean sticks can no longer be described as loose..."
Zhao Dawu covered his mouth: "Shut up, the little princess is over there, be careful she skins you!"
Zhuo Qianping was shuddered when he heard the words, and turned around to look, just in time to see Fu Ruoshui staring at him fiercely. He was so frightened that he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He was almost awake from the wine. He quickly turned his head and continued eating, not daring to speak loudly.
.
"Wugang has prepared a thousand chariots. These are absolute weapons against cavalry, but before that, the White Tiger Army, which is the only commander in chief, must work hard to adapt to its operation." Bian Zhongxing said in a deep voice.
Dugu nodded: "That's no problem. The operation of the Wuhan Iron and Steel Cart is relatively simple. It can take up to ten days and a half. I guarantee that the soldiers under my command can use their arms and fingers. Hey, Mandan's armored heavy cavalry is said to be unparalleled in the world. After the spring of next year, I will
We need to let him try the power of our Chinese Dynasty."
Different from what Jiang Chenzhou and other subordinates were discussing, Dugu and others were discussing the battle strategy of the army after next spring.
"My advice is to attack Bai Jing first, capture the thieves first, capture the king first, and kill the strong first. Moreover, if Bai Jing cannot be destroyed, then when we destroy Mandan, we must be wary of Cassimbas.
A sneak attack. Therefore, it is better to mobilize all the troops to destroy Bai Jing first." Xue Sha said.
Xuanji shook his head: "Commander Blood, if this is really the case, then Mandan's aid will continue to be sent to Baijing. Baijing is a military power. It will be more difficult to get the unreserved support of Mandan."
Gnaw. Besides, Bloody Commander, are you really sure you can defeat Cassimbas?"
Xue Sha pondered for a moment, then said with a wry smile: "It's no problem to contain Cassimbas. It's too difficult to defeat, but we should be able to draw a draw."
Xue Kill is the leader of the five generals in Hetao, and his military tactics and strategies are all at the top level in Hetao. He is not sure of defeating Kasimbas. You can imagine Kasimbas' ability.
Xuanji smiled and said: "So I think that by destroying Mandan first and then conquering Tubaijing, we can block Tieying Qiuming's possible assistance to the three Northeastern countries and completely isolate Baijing. As for Baijing,
Over there, we can have the blood commander lead his army to sit at the junction of Baijing and Mandan to guard against Cassimbas' sneak attacks."
Xue Sha smiled bitterly and said: "So, doesn't it mean that I will not be able to participate in the battle to destroy Mandan?"
Feng Jing said cheerfully: "Commander Blood, you have already destroyed Jinhua Mitsukoshi and Haixi Dynasty. You have to let us have some influence on this Mandan Dynasty, right?"
Haotian frowned and looked at everyone looking at him eagerly. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This matter will be postponed for later discussion. However, if we can fight Cassimbas in an upright manner, it is indeed a good thing."
It’s quite a joyful thing.”
Half a month later, news finally came from southern Yunnan and Lingnan. After Li Xiaomo, Chu Lianfeng and Mu Shan's three hundred and two hundred thousand troops cut off all the power of the Tan tribe around Lizhou, they finally attacked Lizhou.
Lizhou launched a fierce attack on the city. Although the 120,000 soldiers of the four ethnic groups in southern Yunnan who retreated here tried their best, with the personal participation of Li Xiaomo and Chu Lianfeng, Lizhou only held on for one day and declared its fall. Except for the Tan tribe
The patriarch Sha Dan escaped from the secret passage alone. The remaining senior leaders of the four southern Yunnan tribes, including the Bamar chief Qi Yifeng, were all killed in the battle. With the help of Mu Shan, an army of 200,000 people ruthlessly captured Lizhou City.
The four tribes of people killed them all, then dragged the bodies to the dense forest outside the city and burned them all.
"This kid Mu Shan is smart enough. He actually knows how to let Li Xiaomo and Chu Lianfeng use the knife, which is good." Luo Xiang received the battle report and said with a smile.
Haotian, holding the battle report in his hand, stood at the window and looked up at the blue sky and was silent for a long time. Finally, he ordered Mu Shan to return to the Bloody Plateau. Li Xiaomo and Chu Lianfeng immediately went south, and together with the Dingnan and Yellow Turban legions, they completely
Destroy the golden flowers.
"Husband, according to Soul Eater's secret report, although Li Xiaomo and others tried their best, the mountains in southern Yunnan are high and the forests are deep, and at least 300,000 people of the four tribes are still hiding in the mountains." Xue Qingcheng said in confusion.
Haotian hesitated a little, just nodded, and said after a while: "That's almost it. The four ethnic groups in southern Yunnan have a total population of five million. Now there are only 300,000 left. Let's leave some seeds for them. Besides, most of these people
They are all other ethnic minorities.”
Xue Qingcheng keenly felt the change in Haotian's mentality and said in surprise: "My husband is soft-hearted?"
Haotian was silent for a moment, then nodded: "To be honest, they were indeed punished for their crimes, but when I actually saw so many people's heads falling to the ground, I still softened my heart. Especially other ethnic minorities in southern Yunnan.
They followed Sha Dan and others to send troops to Dahu Road just to grab a few more things. As for treason and self-reliance, they didn't have the strength at all, so they could only wave the flag and shout. They would follow whoever had the bigger fist, which was shameless.
Some, but due to their strength, they have no choice at all."
"What about golden flowers?" Xue Qingcheng said.
"Jinhua is different. After all, southern Yunnan is the territory of the empire, and they are also subjects of the empire, so they have some feelings. They have paid a huge price. However, Jinhua Mitsukoshi, because they are only vassals of the empire, are not emotionally affectionate.
, just like Korea, no matter how friendly they are now, I never feel that they are my own people." Haotian sighed: "Besides, the two-legged sheep thing is really a heinous crime, I
We must give an explanation to the Chinese people."
After thinking for a while, Haotian changed his words and said: "In this case, you can draft an order on my behalf and tell the ethnic minorities in southern Yunnan that as long as there are people from the four ethnic groups in southern Yunnan within their sphere of influence, they must be killed. Anyone who can kill Sha
If Dan can capture him alive, he will be rewarded heavily."
When walking out of the room, Xue Qingcheng suddenly sighed. As long as you are a human being, you will eventually change. Haotian, who originally thought he was already hard-hearted, finally became soft-hearted.
As soon as they reached the door, Haotian spoke again: "Tell Cheng Guochi and Zhang Keliang to show me all the corpses of the golden-flowered monkeys and build a city next to Green Green City. How can it be so easy to get away with it?"
Xue Qingcheng was shocked. It turned out that even if Haotian was soft-hearted, he was only facing the people of his own country. The surrounding foreign races, including vassal countries, were not included in it. Cheng Guochi, Zhang Keliang and others had withdrawn to the Holy Capital of Tiandu due to the Hetao army.
, somewhat lazy, so although the number of beheadings is written in the battle report, there is often no such number. Haotian obviously understood this, and simply asked them to take the corpses to build the city. Now it seems that they can still
What kind of tricks are you playing?
But just after taking a few steps, Xue Qingcheng suddenly felt a little worried. What is her position in Haotian's heart?
Bian Chongxing's move south marked the final transfer of the ruling center of Hetao from Yanzhou, Hetao to Tiandu Shengjing.
Bian Chongxing went south alone. The 150,000 soldiers of his Rock Army were now divided into three groups. Mushan had been guarding the Bloody Plateau for a long time, Lano led 50,000 soldiers to guard the Yinfeng Mountains, and Zhu Xigao and Huben were on the advice of Bian Chongxing.
The legions are jointly responsible for the city defense of Tiandu Shengjing.
After all, Tiandu Shengjing is too big, and the various relationships are complicated. Therefore, Bian Zhongxing always felt that a Tiger and Ben army was too weak. Haotian thought about it and thought so, so he agreed to the proposal of the Rock Army to defend the city. And Tiandu Shengjing
Naturally, the city defense of Beijing was completely handed over to Bian Shihongxing.
Bian Zhongxing was the oldest top general when Haotian launched his army. Since he had been guarding the Hetao for a long time, a group of old comrades had gathered less and separated more. Now almost all the legions heading south from the Hetao are concentrated near Tiandu Shengjing, plus another
It is a traditional grand festival in China, so the gatherings have been going on these days.
"Lord, Mr. Luo, Lord Chu, the military advisor, and the Blood Commander gather frequently, and each gathering is quite confidential. We have no way of knowing the content of their conversations." In Haotian's study, Guanying Duan
Sitting down and saying.
Haotian casually threw the documents in his hands aside and said calmly: "There will be no problem with them. There is no need to monitor them. If they find out, it will destroy the relationship between everyone."
Guanying was unmoved and continued: "But they summoned the generals many times to discuss matters, and the scope involved was basically all generals at the commander-level of our Hetao. These generals are all direct descendants of our Hetao, that is, Bloody
None of the generals of the clan participated."
Haotian chuckled: "Then there is no need to worry. I, Haotian, can walk from Dingzhou to Tiandu Shengjing because of their existence. Lu Bu's fans are just an accident. Our eyes must not be fixed on He
We are born into old comrades who share life and death together."
Guanying was silent for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "What my lord said is absolutely true. My subordinates are too suspicious."
Haotian waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile: "You are the commander of Soul Eater. These things are your duties, and that's right. Now, is the empire stable?"
Since Guanying was burying his head, Haotian didn't see his expression for a moment, but Guanying immediately raised his head and said: "My lord, although the Li family of Qinchuan and the Zhang family of Huaishui are a little uneasy about their duties, Li Xiaomo
They are suppressed by others, so there will be no problems for the time being. Moreover, they are also people who are very aware of current affairs. With their current strength, they are simply unable to fight against us."
Haotian sighed: "If this is really the case, that would be great. What I fear most is that when we are on an expedition beyond the Great Wall, they will suddenly stab me in the back. By then, even if I want to be merciful, the soldiers will
It's not easy to explain there either. Guanying, you monitor their movements closely, and no matter what happens, you must report it immediately."
Guanying breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Yes." Seeing that Haotian had no other instructions, he pushed the chair back to its original position with his remaining right arm, bowed and exited the study.
Xin Jiao's figure floated out from behind the screen in the study room and said with a smile: "Why are you so melancholy, husband?"
Haotian smiled bitterly: "Sir, they gather frequently. Although there is absolutely no malice, I always have an unfathomable feeling. Moreover, this matter also involves almost all the senior generals in our Hetao. If I expected
If it's not bad, I'm afraid Wei He, Zheng Chengen and Cheng Daping all know about it and just keep it from me."
"What about Guanying?" Xin Jiao asked.
Haotian stood up, took Xin Jiao's little hand to the window, looked at the lush green bamboos in the garden downstairs, and said with a smile: "Guanying must be an insider, as the leader of the Soul Eater,
If he doesn't even know these things, then his position as commander is really in vain. He came today just to test my reaction."
Xin Jiao was a little curious. Any high-ranking person would definitely become suspicious if he knew that his loyal subordinates were having frequent secret gatherings. Even if he did not order a strict investigation, he would never be as calm as Haotian.
Haotian seemed to see through her thoughts and said with a smile: "If I can't even trust them, then there are really not many people in the world who can trust them. The Nine-Five Lords are not all lonely. Sir, they will never do anything bad to us.
, and their secret gathering is obviously because they have different views on certain things from me, so they hope to prepare in advance."
Xin Jiao said doubtfully: "Don't you want to know what they are thinking about?"
Haotian shook his head: "There is no need, they have absolutely no second thoughts, and what they do is definitely for our good. Besides, there are indeed many restless factors within the empire. If they are allowed to develop like this, the foundation of the empire will inevitably
If we are still shaken, why not lend our hands to clean it all up?"
Xin Jiao became even more confused: "If that's the case, why are you still so worried, husband?"
"It's very simple. I'm worried that their actions are too big, and there are many people who don't know whether to live or die. If the scope of involvement is too large, I'm afraid it will be another bloody storm." Haotian sighed.
Among the many generals in Hetao, Bian Chongxing is definitely a legend.
Bian Zhongxing became famous very early, even before Dugu Yuming. Back then, he was a famous iron wall in the Xuanwu Legion that was best at defending in the Qingfeng Empire. After joining the Hetao, he immediately became the top general in the Hetao.
Before Haotian reorganized the military system, Bian Zhongxing did not have his own direct troops at all. Every battle was drawn from various places. Unlike Xue Sha and others, he often led a large army to fight against one side. He has been staying there all these years
On the Hetao Third Road, except for the pursuit and annihilation battle at Jiayuguan and the defense battle of Yanzhou, Bian Zhongxing had almost no chance to fight.
Among the more than ten legions in the Hetao, the Panshi Legion in Bian Chongxing is the strongest, with a strength of 150,000, which is equivalent to the strength of a main legion and a secondary legion in the Hetao. However, these 150,000 soldiers were almost completely dismantled.
As a result, the number of troops that Bian Zhongxing can actually mobilize is very small. From the perspective of outsiders, the only thing Bian Zhongxing has done over the years is to train new recruits and then hand them over to the hands of other legions, which is almost the same as a reserve training general.
However, whether it was Xue Sha or Dugu Yuming, they all respected Bian Zhongxing. Moreover, Haotian's trust in Bian Zhongxing was absolutely endless. Over the years, the Hetao army has gone on several expeditions, Haotian Luo Xiang Xuanji and Xue Sha
The others have been away all year round, and only Chu Xiangcheng and Bian Zhongxing are left behind in the Hetao.
Chu Xiangcheng is responsible for all government affairs and diplomacy. However, all military issues are handled by Bian Zhongxing. In addition to military expansion, other matters including declaring war with surrounding forces are within the scope of Bian Zhongxing's authority.
within.
This time when Bian Zhongxing went south, without saying a word, Haotian not only handed over the defense of the entire Tiandu Shengjing to him, but also gave him full power to coordinate the military power of the entire Shenzhou. Although the fourteen main legions in Hetao soon
They have to go out to conquer the outside of the Great Wall, but the power in Bian Zhongxing's hands is still astonishing. The 150,000 soldiers of the Scarlet Clan who stayed behind, the Snow Wolf Legion on Luoche Road, and the Dingnan, Yellow Turban, Poli and Zhulu troops who are still fighting in the Lingnan area
The legions of more than half a million troops are within his purview.
"Commander Bian, our army will march beyond the Great Wall, and the defense of the empire depends on you." Haotian patted Bian Zhongxing on the shoulder and said.
Bian Zhongxing's expression remained unchanged, and he simply said calmly: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely work together with Mr. Chu to create a stable rear area for the army."
This is the first court meeting held by Haotian after the Spring Festival. Since this is the first Spring Festival after Haotian takes over the Holy Capital of Heaven, there are many envoys from small countries who come to congratulate them. Most of these small countries are located in
On the East China Sea and the South China Sea, although they are nominally vassal states of the Shenzhou Dynasty, for thousands of years, except for the time when the new dynasty was established and the country was strong and strong, they came to visit, it can be said that they have never interacted with each other. However, if there is trouble,
They came to the door immediately.
"I really don't know why my lord allowed envoys from these countries to come to the palace. Damn it, they keep saying they are vassal countries of our heaven, but when they came to visit, they didn't even pay basic tribute." Standing in the crowd, Zhou Jilong said in a low voice.
"That's right, we usually don't interact with each other, but when something happens, we come to ask for help immediately. It's okay not to be a vassal country like this." Ren Pixin said in a low voice: "Hey, why not say hello to the navy and ask them to go to the East China Sea and the East China Sea more often?
Let’s go around the South China Sea and let these bastards see the majesty of our celestial dynasty.”
Li Xiao shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, it's the imperial meeting now, don't be embarrassed. It's okay to say these things in normal times, but this is not the place to talk. Besides, the coming of all nations to the imperial court is also a sign of our strong strength to deter Yunei, and also
It’s a good thing.”
In addition to envoys from various countries, more than ten prefects from China and major military generals also participated. However, Li Xiaomo and others were still in Lingnan, and the battle was not over in one day. They could not return in one day, so they had no chance to participate.
