Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 100 Prologue

"Old Ka, this battle is related to the overall situation of our Western Xinjiang. We have a heavy responsibility, so we must not neglect it." Cui Wenxiu reminded his old friend meaningfully.

"Well, Wenxiu, I'm afraid this battle is also a tough one. We've seen Nick's skills before. He has been running Qinghe for so long, and now the way out is dead. We can only stick to it and wait for help. Combat, this kind of battle is the hardest to fight." The relaxed look on Kamapov's face has disappeared, replaced by a cautious look. He doesn't need to hide anything in front of his old friends, if he wants to gnaw this bone , I don’t know how many more than 100,000 or 200,000 troops are left, but this battle has to be fought, no matter from the political or military perspective, this battle can only end with the complete disappearance of one side physically and mentally. for the end.

"Well, His Royal Highness has made up his mind that the Kaman people's war power must be completely wiped out. It is estimated that after this battle, both Nick Mailey and Gomez will either die or step down and go into hiding. It’s impossible to have any right to speak in the Eastern Continent. It’s just that I didn’t expect that the Puer people are so ignorant of current affairs. , let’s collect them together.” Cui Wenxiu saw that Kamapov seemed to be in a bad mood, but instead deliberately provoked the other party’s interest.

"It's true, but after this battle, I don't know how many souls of our two legions will return to the fertile soil. Thinking of this, I always feel a little apprehensive." Kamapo, who has never shown much emotion Cui Wenxiu was greatly surprised by what her husband said. She did not expect that the seemingly rough and silent reckless man would have such delicate emotions, which made Cui Wenxiu feel deeply.

"Don't worry too much. Although the Kaman people's combat effectiveness is not weak, their logistical problems are difficult to solve completely, and their morale will also drop due to the long-term defense. Of course, if you want to win Qinghe and destroy them, you will not have to pay a considerable price. It's impossible, but hasn't Your Highness made it clear that you will win this battle even if you pay a high price, so what you need to consider now is how to fight this battle, especially the impact of the surrounding reinforcements on the battle situation. The problem needs to be paid enough attention." Cui Wenxiu suggested carefully.

"You mean the Puer people and Situ Tai? The Puer people have already expected it, but I'm not sure if Situ Tai will really get involved. Situ Tai must be aware of our western Xinjiang It is a huge obstacle for him to ascend the throne. He definitely hopes that we will fight to the death with the Kamanians. The question is, now that we have an obvious advantage over the Kamanians, will he risk the world and send troops to reinforce Kamanians? Mann attacking us? Wenxiu, help me analyze it.” As a coach, he needs to consider every possible outcome. It is also the first time for Kamapov to take over such a large-scale war. My old friends can give me some advice.

"It's really difficult to judge. Once Kaman loses the ability to affect the changes in the empire, His Highness's next goal must be to fully intervene in the Central Plains. Situ Tai knows this better than anyone else, but he really sent troops to help Foreigners attacking the imperial vassals, such an order is undoubtedly a disorderly order, even though the troops under him are loyal to him, but does Situ Tai dare to issue such an order that obviously violates the righteousness of the nation? What will happen after it is issued? Consequences? What should he do if the army refuses to accept it, or if public opinion mobilizes him? Situ Tai needs to consider these issues carefully. In my personal opinion, he should not make such hasty decisions, but it is not ruled out that he will be in Cangzhou The border area mobilized troops to restrain us from responding to the Kamans, so that even if we protested and questioned, he could explain and evade, saying that we were suspicious.” Cui Wenxiu expressed his views slowly, but at the same time he emphasized that this It's just his personal opinion.

"What Wenxiu means is that I don't care about the direction of Cangzhou. I just need to firmly withstand the attack of the Pu'er people, and I can besiege Qinghe with all my strength here? But will this be too risky? Once Situ Tai is determined Entering from the east, the encirclement of Qinghe was broken, and it would be nothing to let Nick escape, but if he failed to counterattack, the whole battle situation would be completely passive." Cui Wenxiu said to her old friend. The style is also familiar, plain and thick, steady and cautious, this kind of thinking is not difficult to understand.

"Old Ka, you might as well ask the intelligence department and scouts to strengthen the monitoring of the direction of Cangzhou, so that even if there is any change in Situ Tai, there will be time. Of course, it depends on your own thoughts, after all, you are the one who is fighting this battle." The coach." Cui Wenxiu said lightly.

Nodded, Kamapov said no more, but he was obviously not satisfied with Cui Wenxiu's suggestion.

Standing on the top of the city wall, Mai Li took the monocular binoculars handed to him by the adjutant, silently and carefully moving his gaze from south to north, the banners covering the sky and the continuous camps almost spread all over the city. The entire line of sight that can be reached by the entire vision is rigorous and thick. This is the first definition Mailey gave to the opponent's camp formation. However, although such a formation is stable, it does not have much impact on Mailey. The existing forces in Lincheng seem to have no capital to launch a counterattack, and the only way to do it is to defend frontally.

Although the power has been supplemented to a certain extent, Mai Li knows that this power in his hands is not enough to really face the Western Frontier Army which is twice as large as him in front of him. In addition to strengthening the defense, he uses various means to slow down The opponent's attack strength can only rely on the reinforcements from the country.

On the eve of the closure of the city, Mailey finally received the long-awaited letter from the Prime Minister. The First Legion has set off to the south and is traveling day and night. It seems that the problem of the Boyin people has finally been resolved as the Prime Minister said in the original letter. , Mai Li didn't know how Prime Minister Gomez subdued the Boyin people who had always been unruly and hooked up with Li Wufeng, but since he dared to send Lu Xi to the south, it naturally meant that the Boyin people were unlikely to cause trouble in the north. Otherwise, the Ninth Corps alone is definitely not enough to guard the northern border.

Thinking of this, a glimmer of hope rekindled in Mailey's heart. The Prime Minister's skills are indeed reliable, and his promises have basically never been broken. The people of Poole have also sent troops as promised. This is also encouraging news , although the battlefield for reinforcements is Beiyuan, for Mai Li, Beiyuan and Fanlin are inseparable. If there is a mistake in either place, the ending will be disastrous. Once Li Wufeng suffers defeat in Beiyuan, The encouragement and impact on Fan Lin's morale cannot be underestimated.

What about Luzon people/Luobei people and Situ Tai? The fire of hope in Mai Li's heart is slowly being ignited again, and he seems to see the prospect of victory again. Once Li Wufeng fails in these two places, his rule Collapse is also inevitable, at least, the Western Regions/Tengger/Northern Luzon and the peninsula will fall into the hands of others or become semi-independent, and the definition of allies and enemies will also change dramatically. Believe unwaveringly, so what if you fail? Mailey is unwilling to imagine the consequences of failure. At that time, I am afraid that it will not be his turn to think about the consequences. Everything will depend on this battle.

Handing the binoculars back to the adjutant, he strolled along the city wall. Piles of logs and lime jars were piled up in the places reserved everywhere, covered with flame-retardant tarpaulins, and the pile of rocks directly Bare each other on the outer edge. Along the top of the inner edge of the city wall, a wide and thick sandy soil belt extends forward and leads to the distance, which is a necessary material to prevent the enemy's fire attack tactics. The siege tactics of the Western Frontier Army have advanced by leaps and bounds in the past few years. Not only have they absorbed the complicated methods of the Western Continent, but they have also heard about their own innovation ability. It is particularly willing to invest, whether it is traditional attack equipment such as crash vehicles/movable ladders/siege vehicles/mobile catapults~IndoMTL.com~ or newly popular weapons such as dragon guns/repeating bed ballistas, The news from the intelligence department reflects that Xijiang has spent huge sums of money on these aspects. Although weapons and equipment cannot determine the outcome of a war, the facts have proved that the role of weapons and equipment in a war must not be underestimated.

Facing the newly emerging armed groups in Xijiang, Mailey has long since lost the slightest contempt. It can be said that he has mobilized all the forces that can be mobilized, and has also made preparations for various fierce battles in advance. He doesn't have any worries about the soldiers under his command, but the quality cannot make up for the lack of quantity. Mailey has a clear understanding of this, so the only way to offset this gap is to improve the protection ability in advance.

Caressing the huge sling arm, the rough thorny feel gave Mailey a feeling of relying on it. It should be said that the prime minister did his best to support the army. This giant sling and the repeating crossbow equipped next to it It was also made by the prime minister in a situation of extreme financial constraints. It is said that the supplier's contractor even sued His Majesty the Emperor because he could not receive the final payment. It's as good as it gets, but what else can Miley say?

The dark dusk showed that the clouds were getting lower and thicker, which also symbolized that Mailey's mood was difficult to resolve, and the numbers of the enemy's troops under the city had also been figured out, except for the most powerful armed force of the Teroks - the Praetorian Guards In addition, the main force was actually the First Army Corps known as the First Army in Western Xinjiang. It seemed that Li Wufeng was determined to win this battle, and he actually pulled the First Army Corps that was fighting in Sanjiang back to the north. A **** battle seemed inevitable.

Vote! o(∩_∩)o...haha
