"General, you didn't die in battle at all?" Li Xiaomo asked in a deep voice.
Zhang Xinxin laughed: "General, think about how dangerous the battle in the rocky wasteland was, but our losses were only 120,000. At that time, the troops of Al Tietong, Diga and others were only slightly better than ours, but the blood
What kind of people are Shuai Dushuai and Xin Shuai? How could they not guess Al Tietong's plan? The correct situation should be like this. We will use our tactics and retreat while fighting. Han Qingjia Mo leads 50,000 cavalry to pursue us, but we are easily defeated.
We made dumplings. In that battle, our losses were less than 20,000 yuan."
Li Xiaomo's eyes shrank violently: "Then the battle with Nana Hada was then?"
"Of course it's a complete victory. General, think about it, we used three legions of Longxiang, Red Snake and Qilin. The strength is three times that of Nana Hada, and it was an unexpected ambush. Wu Xiaolangjun's Longxiang legion
The impact was extremely powerful, and the Nahada army was completely wiped out with almost no resistance. We suffered very little loss."
Li Xiaomo let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that Hetao had been preparing since then. On the surface, they were evacuating the large number of troops staying in China, but during the battle against Sashan, they kept pulling back the troops. Externally, it was said that it was a battle loss.
It was too big, and the soldiers in Hetao suffered heavy casualties. How could I believe their poor reasons in the first place? I actually lamented with Xue Qingcheng and others that the army in Hetao was too arrogant after winning every battle, so that they were killed and abandoned by the opponent.
First.
Sheng Lanxin knew something about it, and asked: "General, where are the Red Snake Legion and the Qilin Legion now?"
"The Qilin Legion is in the Bloody Plateau, and the Red Snake Legion is stationed in the Yinfeng Mountains."
Li Xiaomo looked at Zhang Xingxin blankly, and said dryly: "It turns out that you didn't have good intentions in the first place."
Zhang Zhenxin said seriously: "General, from the bottom of our hearts, we don't want to point our knives at the Chinese people who share the same blood. But you have evil intentions, and we have to be careful. The Lord has no intention of eradicating you.
Otherwise, we would have already taken action. It’s just that you are too stubborn.”
Looking at the gloomy look on Li Xiaomo's face, Zhang Xingxin sneered and said: "General, maybe you think that we in the Hetao are sinister and cunning, but from our point of view, we are well prepared. For the Li family in Qinchuan, the Zhang family in Huaishui, and
We in the Hetao are already tolerant of things like Yanyu Ninghua Palace. Even now, Mr. Chu and Bian Shuai have ordered us to protect you two and leave no matter what, because we don't want you to be implicated in this matter."
Li Sheng and Li Sheng glanced at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. Indeed, Hetao was kind enough to them. Otherwise, with Hetao's consistent behavior, he would have led hundreds of thousands of troops to level the Li family. Chu
It is not easy for Xiangcheng and Bian Zhongxing to endure until this point.
Sheng Lanxin sighed: "Have you ever thought about how many innocent people would be killed in this way?"
Zhang Xingxin said seriously: "Holy Fairy, we are thinking about the people of the world, so we have been unwilling to kill. Otherwise, we can completely defend the Holy Capital of Heaven, and then the bloody cavalry surges down from the bloody plateau. You two, no
This general boasts that with only the 300,000 troops of Panshi, Red Snake, Qilin and our four legions of Qinglong, we can once again flatten the south of the river. But China, which has finally calmed down, will be subject to war again. "
Li Xiaomo said angrily: "You are clearly deliberately creating opportunities for them to take advantage of!"
"That's right! We gave them many opportunities at the beginning, but they didn't cherish them, so we must nip them in the bud. Chaos for a while is better than chaos for the whole life." Chu Xiangcheng came over without knowing when.
, said slowly.
"General Zhang, you go about your business first. After crossing the river, the cavalry will patrol along the river defense line. The Zhang family's navy should be arriving soon." Chu Xiangcheng said.
Looking at Chu Xiangcheng with a calm face, Li Xiaomo also regained his composure: "Master Chu, what on earth do you mean?"
Chu Xiangcheng said calmly: "Let's put it this way, my lord has always been merciful towards his own people, and he is nostalgic for his old feelings. Even if you have some sneaky behavior, my lord will not take it to heart. But if they are allowed to continue like this,
That will inevitably lead to a huge disaster. You should know what kind of virtue they have, and they will never let go. So we are thinking that since they will rebel sooner or later, it is better to solve the problem as soon as possible."
"Master Chu, what happened has happened, how are you going to deal with it next?"
"That is a question that my lord should think about. Don't worry, my lord will be able to return in three months at most, and I will definitely give you an explanation then."
The Obsburg Empire.
The Plantagenet army suffered a disastrous defeat in the Gallic Strait, causing Obsburg to lose its most powerful helper. The Gallic Kingdom had an ambiguous attitude, and Constantine was already frightened by the river. Although the Latin Kingdom sent 70,000 soldiers, it has been
Staying at the border of Obsburg is at most a defense line to help defend the Elbe River. Under such circumstances, Obsburg can only rely on itself to resist the increasingly powerful pressure from the Hetao.
On December 18, after Hetao completed the Bone Palace in Canglangyuan, the main army slowly moved northward, aiming directly at Rococo City. Even Suganev was a veteran of many battles, and at this time
Quite nervous.
However, Nicholas II was more nervous than Suganev. The Elbe River is the largest river in the Western Continent. The river flows slowly through the city of Longen, making the land and water transportation in Longen quite convenient. Now it is
In winter, for some reason, the Elbe River is only half as wide as it was in midsummer. In the past, the water volume of the Elbe River did not change much. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Hetao army began to build pontoons on the river, and many people crossed the river.
westward trend.
Nicholas II was anxious at that time. While ordering the navy to destroy the pontoon bridge built in the Hetao, he ordered all the most elite troops to concentrate in Longen City. At least more than 500,000 people from Obsburg were concentrated near Longen City.
Army. Since there is a bridge connecting the east and west in the city, the deployment of troops is quite sufficient.
At the request of Nicholas II, 20,000 cavalry from the Western Saints and 50,000 soldiers from the Latin Kingdom also stationed themselves in Longen City. The Western Saints are the largest religion in the Western Continent, and their main source of money is the dignitaries of various countries.
Donation. Obsburg is the overlord of the Western Continent, and usually provides many benefits to the Western Saints. At this critical juncture, the Western Saints naturally want to help their brothers.
After hearing this, Haotian just asked Luo Xiang to write a fiercely worded letter to the Western Saint Sect, clearly telling the Pope Tufei Yage of the Western Saint Sect to immediately withdraw the 20,000 cavalrymen, otherwise the country would be destroyed.
After Obsburg, the Hetao will never let go of the Western Holy Church.
"We'll wait and see!" Tu Feiyage's reply was short, with only these few words.
Haotian threw the letter into the trash can: "We'll see! What a big statement!"
Luo Xiang smiled sinisterly and said: "They will understand what it means to wait and see." Obviously, Luo Xiang has already made murderous intentions. No one in the world dares to ignore Hetao's warning. Since Tufei Yage is so tough, Hetao will not mind using it in the future.
Compare your own knife with his to see who is stronger.
"How is the situation with the Navy?"
"Everything is as planned." Luo Xiang's tone was full of regret: "It's a pity that the Dragon Legion is busy with combat missions, so it's too late to blackmail the Plantagenet Dynasty."
Haotian chuckled and said, "Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities."
Two days later, the three legions of the White Tiger Honor and the Blood Killer in the Hetao cut into the middle of Longen and Rococo City in an attempt to cut off the connection between the two. Suganev noticed the intention of the Hetao and personally led an army of 100,000 to attack. Nicholas II
Shi Ye was quite decisive and ordered Klebuts and Alexander to lead 300,000 troops out of the city to fight with Suganev. The two cities were less than twenty miles apart, so it was extremely convenient for Obsburg to mobilize troops.
The Hetao side obviously did not expect that Obsburg's reaction would be so fierce, so they hesitated to mobilize their troops and were forced back hundreds of miles by the opponent, all the way to the Koga jungle area before leaving the station.
Steady steps. The Koga Jungle is a high-lying rolling hill. The western continent is flat. Except for the Naples Mountains, it is mostly vast plains. The Hetao army is now stationed here, and Suganev does not dare to go deep, so he slows down.
Slowly return to Rococo City.
Although this was only a negligible victory and the losses in the Hetao were less than 10,000, it was the first time since the start of the war that the offensive in the Hetao was contained and the opponent was driven back in embarrassment. I thought that Haotian might be in Ketu
Jiashong was furious, and Nicholas II was so excited that he couldn't sleep.
Perhaps it was discovered that the Hetao is not that strong, but the Obsburg Empire still has a lot to offer. The Kingdom of Gaul, which was originally planning to form an alliance with the Hetao to deal with Obsburg, actually sent a symbolic 20,000 troops to Longen, and fought with the Hetao.
The Latin Kingdom and more than a hundred principalities and local lords declared war on the Hetao. After the Dragon Legion concentrated in the sea northwest of Obsburg, the Plantagenet Dynasty actually managed to survive and sent 30,000 reinforcements through the Kingdom of Gaul.
Entering Obsburg.
For a time, except for the Kingdom of Constantine, most of the countries in the entire Western Continent became enemies of the Hetao. Luo Xiang finally found a map of the Western Continent from a pile of trophies, and was surprised to find that the entire Western Continent
In the mainland area, there are only three small principalities and the Kingdom of Constantine left that have not declared war on the Hetao.
However, what surprised everyone was that these three small principalities were nothing more than each other. Although they each sent two thousand soldiers to assist in the Hetao battle - this small amount of troops was not taken seriously by anyone at all. Even though these two thousand soldiers had already
It is their overwhelming power.
But the Kingdom of Constantine actually sent an envoy to Haotian at this time, clearly expressing its support for Haotian's position, and patting his chest and promising that no matter what Hetao needs, just ask. Of course, Hetao will not be deceived by his lies.
.But the next day, hundreds of carts of grain arrived from Constantine, which fully proved their sincerity.
To the east of Obsburg, the soft Kipchak Khan personally led an army to press on the border of Obsburg. Haotian thought about it, and still used the reason that this was a journey of revenge for China, and signaled Rouran not to participate.
Go to the battles of Loop and Obsburg.
With the support of almost the entire Western Continent, the Obsburg Empire suddenly became energetic. Nicholas II even told Haotian that they would fight the Shenzhou to the end, letting Haotian understand that the Western Continent was not the work of powerful foreigners like Sashan and Rouran.
The enemy can match it.
Haotian looked at the dense list of countries declaring war in the book, sneered, and wanted to throw it into the furnace. But Luo Xiang grabbed it with one hand: "Lord, keeping this thing will definitely be useful."
Facing the unprecedented level of unity among the countries in the Western Continent, the Hetao military generals were all dismissive, but Zhang Yuewan, Qiu Mu and others were secretly worried. A large-scale rebellion had occurred in China, and the rebels had already taken over.
All the territory south of the river, that is to say, the territory that was worked so hard to win in the Hetao has been lost. Only the third road in the Hetao and the sixteen states of Youyun are still in hand. Although they have saved their old nest, they are facing the two
On this front, does Loop still have so much energy?
The most important thing is that the countries in the Western Continent are united as never before, and nearly a million troops have been gathered near Long. Such a huge army gathering has never happened in the Western Continent. Suganev is the God of Army in the Western Continent.
How easy is it to defeat him? If the Kingdom of Constantine remains neutral under pressure from the Western Continent or even sends troops with them, the situation in Hetao will be even more dangerous.
"Why did you accept it before it was good?" Zhang Yuewan asked privately.
Haotian smiled and asked: "Then why do you think the Kingdom of Constantine supports us so clearly, and why do the three countries of Burangan, Lumbis and Crovia send troops to support us?"
The Three Burgundy Kingdoms are located on the edge of the Naples Mountains. They are not marked at all on the military map of the Western Continent, which shows how weak their national power is.
Zhang Yuewan snorted coldly: "They are gambling!"
"Yes, it's because they understand that we will definitely win, so they will fight with all their strength at any cost." Haotian said seriously: "Yue Wan, don't doubt our military strength in Hetao at any time. I can guarantee you that in three days
, in three days at most, the situation in the Western Continent will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes. Those who are still criticizing us today and saying that they want to kill us will all kneel at our feet and repent. Do you believe it?
Don’t believe it?”
Zhang Yuewan said angrily: "Husband, I am not joking with you."
Haotian laughed, held Zhang Yuewan's hand, and said proudly: "I'm not kidding you. Three days, three days at most!"
Zhang Yuewan was very confused, but seeing the confidence on Haotian's face, she didn't say anything in the end. Haotian was arrogant, but not arrogant. Since he was so swearing, he must have his reasons. Besides, these days, no matter what she said,
Whether it was looking at Luo Xiang Xuanji or Feng Jingxinke and others, all of them were full of confidence, she couldn't help but wonder. What kind of trump card did Haotian have?
Taking advantage of the fact that the main army in the Hetao was pinned down by Suganev in the Koga Jungle, Nicholas II, who had been always on tenterhooks, finally completed the overall layout of the army.
The armies of the Latin Kingdom, the Kingdom of Gaul and other principalities of the Western Continent have deployed their defenses along the Elbe River, and the main army of Obsburg has gathered in the city of Long. However, in the past half month, the level of the Elbe River has been much smaller than in previous years.
Nicholas II worried for a long time.
"The Elbe River will freeze soon, but fortunately the thin ice of the Elbe River cannot allow the Chinese cavalry to pass. As long as we can survive until March next year, victory will definitely belong to us." Suganev thought silently.
As the highest military commander in Obsburg, one can imagine the pressure Suganev is under. In front of him is an army of one million led by Haotian himself, and on the sea northwest of Obsburg is Shenzhou
The Dragon Legion. They had just severely damaged the Plantagenet Armada. They were very arrogant. Taking advantage of the emptiness behind Obsburg, they continued to dispatch troops deep into the interior. But for some unknown reason these days, they all retreated.
They arrived on the sea and robbed merchant ships from various countries in the Western Continent.
"Haotian, what is he waiting for?" Suganev thought in confusion. As a veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years, he is not afraid of a critical military situation. What he is most worried about is that he cannot understand the opponent's strategic plan. The Chinese army is entrenched.
In the Koga Jungle, they neither take the initiative to attack nor withdraw their troops. Don't they know that the daily consumption of food and grass is an astronomical figure?
"Damn the Constantines! If they hadn't provided food and fodder for the Chinese army, China wouldn't have been able to fight a protracted war with us just by plundering the food and fodder in our southeastern region!" Marquis Maanglado said viciously.
A soldier hurriedly ran up the tower, holding a letter in his hand, and said to Suganev: "Marshal, China captured one of our captains, but they did not kill him, but asked him to send this letter
Send the letter back and ask the Marshal to sign it personally."
Suganev took the letter very curiously. Hetao has always killed people without blinking an eye. They not only slaughtered prisoners of war, but also spared civilians. This time they actually released the people and even sent them a letter. Could it be that they were
Prepare for peace talks and hope to discuss it with yourself.
He tore open the envelope with interest, and Suganev's face suddenly turned pale. Maang Lado was very surprised. He and Suganev had been friends for decades, but he had never seen Suganev look so ugly.
He turned his head to the side, but he really didn't recognize the words written with the brush on it.
"Marshal, what does it say?" Maang Lado asked strangely.
"Marshal Suganev, please prepare the ships! We will be very sorry if an opponent like you dies so easily." Suganev said word by word. He is different from Maang Lado, Maang
Lado can only speak but does not know the words. He has always admired Chinese culture, so he can pronounce it effortlessly.
Maang Lado laughed: "What does this mean? It has no head and no tail." But looking at Suganev's pale face without a trace of blood, Maang Lado immediately understood what was going on.
Before the two of them came to their senses, there was a rumble in the distance. It was not the sound of neat horse hooves in the river, nor the sound of siege engines hitting the city gate, but the sound of nature, the anger of nature.
