Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 74 Great Battle (5)

The fierce attack and defense on the Sanjiang East Front did not seem to affect the peace on the West Front. I don't buy it.

Wufeng, who had already visited the front line of the Pearl River, stared blankly at the distance in the east. It seems that Lin Guoxiong, an old man, would rather let the Machihan people take advantage of it than let himself succeed, no matter whether he wrote a letter or went to the emissary to negotiate. However, the Sanjiang troops stationed in Qindu and Anshun both sternly rejected their good intentions, and instead warned themselves not to cross the border, otherwise it would inevitably lead to the outbreak of war between the two.

Thinking of this, Wufeng couldn't help but sneer through his teeth. These idiots who don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth really thought they were the proud sons of heaven. For the sake of heart, even if all the Lin family died in front of him, he would not have the slightest pity, let alone extend a helping hand. But this is just an angry talk. If the Lin family is really finished, he will have to use heavy troops to guard the eastern part of Tiannan and Lujiang Mansion. Such a strategic situation is too unfavorable for him.

The southern weather in midsummer is a bit sultry. Although Wufeng is under a sunshade, his whole body is still soaked in sweat. Thinking about the army preparing on the front line, the heat in Wufeng's heart seemed to dissipate quite a bit. If the Lin family insisted on refusing to cooperate, should he enter by force? This question has been entwined in Wufeng's mind.

Judging from the information obtained by the intelligence department, the Machihans attacked the Lin family's territory in two ways. It is divided into two routes, one route crosses the Gaoligong Mountains from the south of Yuejing, and the other route travels north from South Rhonesia. It seems that the Machi Khans have not been idle for the past two years. The natural danger of Gaoligong Mountain has been conquered by the Machi Khans' manpower. Rib——Kanten, this pincer-shaped joint attack obviously wants to swallow the main force of the three divisions of the Lin family. If Lin Guoxiong is smart, he should make a decisive decision. The current Maqihan people are no longer what the Lin family can compete with. Of course, his own Northwest Army is an exception, but it's a pity that this old dog's head doesn't seem to be enlightened yet, Li Wufeng thought angrily.

The Maqihan people are also vicious enough, and Lei Juetian's move is indeed extremely clever. Just such a small trick can prevent the troops of his three divisions from overstepping the thunder pool. It can indeed play an unexpected role. It can also be seen from this that the Maqihan people have penetrated into the Sanjiang intelligence department to a considerable depth. They were able to compile a military plan to carve up Sanjiang with themselves and put it into the hands of the moles of the Lin family. Fox Secret Spy actually bought it back at a high price through a secret channel. This sounds a bit unbelievable, but the Lin family and his son firmly believe that what is old-fashioned and short-sighted is probably the true portrayal of the Lin family and his son. I have cursed Lin and his son thousands of times in my heart. Even Lin Yuexin's handwritten letter sent back from Xuege from the mainland didn't have the expected effect, Wufeng couldn't look up to the sky and sigh that the sky didn't help me.

Could it be that I really watched the Maqihan people's conspiracy succeed? Or use the navy that has not yet fully matured to attack Baling? Wufeng shook his head, denying his own idea. The navy is not yet fully mature, and Wufeng does not want to expose it prematurely. Moreover, the defense of the Maqihan people in Baling is already quite solid. Even if he can enter Baling, if Baling City The Maqihan people are determined to defend to the death. If they want to break through Baling City, they will not be able to succeed without more than three divisions, and they will have to pay a heavy price. If they cannot break through Baling City, then they will enter Baling City It is meaningless. Once the Maqihan people's Sanjiang war is over, they will be in trouble in Baling. It is not of much value to do so.

Taking a deep breath, Wufeng put aside all kinds of thoughts for the time being, and continued to inspect the front line with steady steps. A taciturn but shrewd and calm mountain man, at this time closely followed Wufeng and inspected the garrison position of the Third Division of the Northwest Army.

"Shanyao, what do you think we should do now? Should we just attack the Lin family directly or stay here?" Wufeng asked casually while checking the defense situation. Liang Chongxin had already gone to Qinzhou in the south. Once the Qihan people break through Yushan Mansion in the southeast of Sanjiang, the next step is likely to be Anshun, and once Northern Rhonesia is lost, the two Macchi Khan armies will encircle Anshun. Compared with the opposite Qin Capital Mansion, the situation is more dangerous, so Liang Chongxin and Mulige went to sit in the town in person.

"My lord, I think these two options are not very good. The Lin family has a deep understanding of us now, and there is still a regular division stationed in the capital of Qindu Prefecture, and the defense of Qindu Prefecture is not bad. We It may be difficult to take it forcibly, and it will be cheap for the Maqihan people; but we are here to deploy our defenses. Once the Maqihan people really capture the capital of Qin, with their cavalry strength, I am afraid that we will not be able to hold it. Here, it is better to retreat to the Pearl River City to defend, so that we will take the initiative." As generals from the mountain tribe, their outspokenness is their characteristic, and Shanyao is no exception. Even in front of the coach, he does not want to shy away from anything.

Wu Feng's heart moved. It seems that this newly promoted general does not agree with stationing at this border, especially after the Lin family has closed the door of joint defense.

"But Shanyao, have you considered that if we all return to the Pearl River and Qinzhou prefectures, the eastern part of these two prefectures and even the entire two prefectures will be taken away by the Maqihan people this season. It has been hit by a disaster, but compared to the central and northern parts of the empire, it is undoubtedly a bumper harvest. Maybe the Machihans want us to do this, and they are also in need of food. But we can’t destroy these crops. I'm afraid that the common people will hate us to the bone." Wu Feng slowly shook his head, as a military and political commander, he couldn't just look at problems from a military point of view.

Shan Yao was taken aback for a moment, apparently not thinking of this aspect, after a long time of contemplation, the mountain man raised his head and said: "My lord, then I can't just wait passively like this, the Lin family disagrees with our immigration assistance Naturally, they have doubts about us, so we provide them with the necessary defensive weapons and supplies. I don’t think they will refuse, such as catapults, ballistas, bows and arrows, and tung oil. These things are necessary for city defense , as long as we can strengthen the defense of the Lin family in Qindu and Anshun, it will indirectly help us improve Tiannan's defense capability, and even if the Machihan people really conquer the two prefectures, their strength will be consumed a little more."

Wufeng couldn't help laughing loudly: "Shanyao, I'm wondering if you are a spy sent by the Lin family. Do you know how expensive these things are? If I give these things away for nothing Lin family, then Xiao Tang has to scold me for being a prodigal son."

What Wufeng said is correct. For long-range strike weapons such as catapults and ballistas, each one consumes thousands of gold coins, and it also needs quite a few accessories to prevent wear and tear. The amount of crossbow bolts required is even greater, otherwise, if there are no crossbow bolts, the ballista will become a decoration. Even things like tung oil are strategic materials that are forbidden to circulate freely, and the price is not cheap.

Shanyao scratched his head in embarrassment, opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak, but Wufeng changed the subject: "But ~IndoMTL.com~ I am going to adopt your suggestion this time, the existence of the Lin family is very important to us. Important, at least it can share a lot of pressure for us, although he treats the heart of a gentleman with a villain's heart, but I don't plan to share their knowledge with them, as long as it is beneficial to attack the Machihan people, I will support it."

When Wufeng asked Tiannan Zhufu to urgently mobilize all kinds of long-range weapons and important materials in the treasuries of various places to support the Lin family, Liang Chongxin brought Mulige and Wenna into the hinterland of Anshun Mansion in disguise .

Due to the simultaneous outbreak of wars in the east and south, the situation in Anshun Mansion suddenly became tense. Everyone knew that whether it was the fall of Northern Rhonesia or the fall of Yushan Mansion, the enemy's next target would naturally be this ancient city on Yimapingchuan. . Martial law and a curfew have been imposed in Fucheng, and all the garrison troops have been withdrawn back to Fucheng to strengthen their combat readiness. There are far fewer merchants on the main road than usual. When Liang Chongxin and his party arrived at the southern border of Anshun Prefecture, they did not encounter a group of soldiers from Sanjiang.

After some investigation, the three of them agreed that there was no danger in the entire territory of Anshun all the way to the city of Qinzhou Prefecture. The boundless rice waves turned golden in the breeze. But in the eyes of the three, they seemed to see the zebra light cavalry and wildebeest heavy cavalry of the Maqihan people galloping on this land in a show of force. Either retreat to the capital city of Qinzhou, or defend Anshun, this is the unanimous conclusion reached by the three after field investigation. If you want to face-to-face with the Maqihans who have a strong cavalry advantage in the wilderness in between, even if you have Gaoyue heavy infantry, in such a large-scale battle, the light cavalry alone is enough to take down 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers. The hoplites dragged down.

As if something was hanging heavily in the hearts of the three of them, this conclusion made the three of them a little depressed, and their moods became gloomy.
