In Kangrao, the capital of Shu, Liu Jing looked at the information sent by his generals, but what he was thinking about was a woman so beautiful that even an old man like him was a little moved.
Hearing that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was going to marry Ying Yue, the all-powerful princess of the Qin Kingdom, Liu Jing felt even worse.
He once met Princess Yingyue of Qin State. At that time, Princess Yingyue was only 18 years old and she was already as good as a fairy.
What a pity... He sighed secretly in his heart, and then brought his thoughts back to reality, and looked at the photos of those who traveled all the way to Shu Kingdom.
The photo is from a bird's-eye view, so you can't tell the exact height, but some things in the photo are blurry and seem to have been enlarged and redrawn in some way.
It is obvious that this is a section of railway track, extending from one side of the frame of the photo to the other side of the photo. There are sections of carriages on the railway track. These things can be clearly identified from a bird's eye view.
One of the carriages is very long, with an obvious thick pipe-like thing on it. These carriages are artificially circled, and there are markings next to them.
The first section is a troop transport carriage, the second section is a troop transport carriage, and the third section is obviously a flatbed carriage with a twin-mounted 76mm caliber anti-aircraft gun installed on it.
Behind the anti-aircraft gun is the carriage carrying the huge steel pipe. Next to the carriage is a Qin replica Lions Empire 400 mm caliber railway gun.
Behind the railway gun is a hoisting car, an ammunition car, and behind it is an anti-aircraft gun flat car. These are also marked one by one, quite detailed.
"Sir Speaker, according to the intelligence sold to us by the Tang people, the Qin people are transporting such heavy artillery to the front line of Shushan. We must think of a way, otherwise things will get worse." The officer in charge of intelligence reported to Liu Jing
road.
Although Liu Jing had found a way out for himself and established an alliance with the woman Sophia, he was still unwilling to give up the Kingdom of Shu easily. This was one of his bargaining chips.
Therefore, he is still an unswerving resister. Even though he knows that resisting Qin is buying time for Tang, he has to continue to persevere.
"Didn't we also buy a 350 mm caliber heavy railway gun from the Yangmu Empire? Use it! Fight against the Qin army!" Liu Jing remembered the weapons payment he had approved before and said immediately.
The main reason why he can remember this is because most of the weapons he purchased before were from the Datang Group or the Cyric Consortium. The expense for purchasing the railway gun that time was given to the Yangmu Empire, so he still remembers it fresh.
After all, the economic situation of Shu State is much better than that of Qin State, so Shu State is more willing to purchase weapons: they purchased 30 350 mm caliber heavy artillery pieces from the Yangmu Empire in one go, which is called generous.
These railway guns were scattered throughout the Shu Kingdom, and several of them had participated in the defensive operations against Qin, leaving a very deep impression on the Qin troops.
Now, since Qin is preparing to surprise Shu, Shu will definitely give Qin a shock.
"The generals on the front line are also mobilizing our railway artillery, but due to the terrain, we can only use it near Shuguan where there are railway tracks." The intelligence officer explained to Liu Jing the deployment of heavy artillery on both sides.
The railways here are not as developed as in the Tang Empire. Because there are many mountains, only Shuguan, a pass near Shushan, has railway tracks. In other words, only there are conditions for laying railway tracks.
Therefore, whether it is Qin's railway gun or Shu's railway gun, it can only be deployed near Shuguan.
At that time, it will be a tit-for-tat battle, and everyone will have no choice but to bombard each other here to see who is stronger than who else.
After looking at the photos from the Tang Dynasty, Liu Jing couldn't help but begin to despise Tang Mo's character. He had just embraced the beauty, but then turned around and betrayed the beauty's hometown. How heartless.
From the perspective of the Tang Empire, this is undoubtedly the best thing for itself. The continued melee between Shu and Qin is indeed beneficial to the Tang State in stirring up trouble in the civil war in the Great China Empire.
Thinking of this, Liu Jing began to think about the feasibility of using these photos to drive a wedge between the Qin State and the Tang Empire.
But he quickly gave up this idea: It's a joke, on the one hand, the Tang Empire is not afraid of such a painless strategy; on the other hand, if the Shu Kingdom offends the Tang Kingdom, it might make its own situation more difficult.
Forget it, at worst, we can still get intelligence support from the Tang State, and we can also smuggle various materials and mechanical equipment from the Tang Empire from the Chu State. If Tang Mo is really angry and stops the supply,
Isn’t it possible that the Shu Kingdom will be destroyed?
With a sigh, Liu Jing ordered the front line to step up preparations and not be intimidated by Qin's heavy artillery. They must hold on to their positions and stop the Qin people north of the Shushan defense line.
After the routine meeting, Liu Jing returned to his office tiredly, then stuffed a document into a file bag and gave it to his confidant, who sent it to the contact point Sophia left for him.
…
Wanliang is a city, but also an area. The ancestors of the Dahua Empire fought their way out of Jiange and fought all the way here. Seeing the fertile fields and endless rice fields here, they renamed this place Wanliang, hoping that endless food could be produced here.
The fertile land of Wanliang has lived up to expectations. It is still the main grain production base of the Dahua Empire and is surrounded by farmland.
It is a pity that the civil war in the Great China Empire has spread here. Luo Xiao, a young general sent by the Tang Empire to command and staff the Fengjiang Army, led troops to attack the Great China Army in this direction.
Previously, it was Prince Zhao Ji who supervised the war here in the Dahua Empire. However, after Zhao Kai was injured in the Tang missile attack on the city, Zhao Ji, the Dahua Prince, rushed back to the imperial capital to exercise his inheritance rights.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As a result, the person was detained in the imperial capital to reflect. Until now, he still has no freedom of movement and can only think about his mistakes behind closed doors in the prince's palace in the imperial capital.
But the war situation is not a child's play. The Dahua army near Wanliang, which has lost its backbone, has been defeated again and again, turning the good Qianli arable land into a messy and disaster-stricken area.
Countless amounts of food were wasted in the summer battles. The wheat fields that seemed to be growing happily became a battlefield where heavy machine guns from both sides exchanged fire. However, the pristine field ridges were covered with the remains of destroyed tanks.
The local people are completely crazy. They have been oppressed in the Great China Empire, and now they have no hope of making a living. How can they be sane again?
In addition, many people had relied on Fengjiang's grain exports to survive. They were all pro-Tang faction who sympathized with the prince Zhao Yu, so the unstable morale of the military near Wanliang was already difficult to conceal.
"General, you can follow anyone you follow. Zhao Yu is also a member of the royal family and the object of your allegiance. Why do you have to be so stubborn?" A lobbyist asked with a smile on his face to ask Wan Liang for the 200,000-strong Chinese army.
The commander-in-chief has a difficult question to answer.
"You are now on the side of justice. The war near Wanliang has been eliminated. How many people will remember the general's merits? When His Highness Zhao Yu returns to the imperial capital, you will also be counted among the meritorious officials!" Seeing that the other party was still hesitant,
The lobbyist continued to persuade.
"What you said is all good, but if things don't work out, I won't be able to save my head." The general was already shaken, but he still wanted to sell the chips in his hand at a good price.
"This is not a problem at all, General. To tell you the truth, as long as you nod, you can immediately go to the Tang Empire with a check of 5 million to enjoy the blessings. His Highness Zhao Yu said that you don't have to worry about your family and children. It's a big deal.
He will give you a lovely wife and a beautiful family!" The lobbyist was very generous.
The general was obviously moved. He clearly felt that he could not suppress his troops. Prince Zhao Yu's influence was really great in many places.
Now as long as he surrenders and hands Wanliang City to Fengjiang's army, he will be said to be invincible: he can choose a good position in Zhao Yu's court in the future, and he can go to Datang if he retreats
The empire was popular and he drank spicy food and lived a wealthy life.
The only fly in the ointment is that his wife, children, and children are all imprisoned in the imperial capital, and the rescue operation is indeed risky: even the intelligence personnel of the Tang Empire cannot fish people out of the imperial capital of the Great China Empire unlimited times.
They have done this twice, and the Dahua Empire is already on alert. It is probably impossible to rescue a whole family like they did to rescue Zhao Yu and steal Zhao Zheng's family.
But some people don't care much about their families - the yellow-faced woman in the family has long wanted to change, and it's not like they can't give up their sons and daughters. Don't you see, Liu Bang can also "share a piece of the pie"?
"Okay! As long as you fulfill your promise, I will hand over ten thousand grains to you!" The Dahua general who had no intention of fighting anymore gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"The general is a smart man!" The lobbyist completed the task, and Zangdu couldn't hide the joy on his face. He stood up and handed the 5 million check directly to the lobbyist: "I believe the general
With this check, I can sleep more soundly."
"Still... sir, you understand me." The general smiled happily, glad that he finally chose the right answer. With five million... it seems that the death of a wife is not so unacceptable.
The Emperor of the Great China Empire, Zhao Kai, still didn't know that the impact of Zhao Ji's furious departure from Wanliang and his return to the imperial capital was just beginning to become apparent.
The 300,000 troops stationed in Wanliang and the 150,000 main force stationed in the core area are preparing to defect before the battle, preparing to give Zhao Kai, who is lying on the hospital bed and unable to fully get out of bed, a big surprise.
