Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 40 9 Yellow Wars (5)
The east of Guanxi County is adjacent to the Five Lakes, and the Jincheng Mansion in the northeast is connected to Huanggang. And Jincheng became a barrier to the east of Kansai and also the gate to enter the rich land in the southeast. The Lujiang River can go down to Baling, while the northeast is the western boundary of Yueyang. The best way to get down is to follow the water. From Jincheng to Huanggang along the Dajiang River, it is a road, and from Lujiang River to Lujiang River and down to Baling is the south route.
For Xijiang, the two routes have their own advantages and disadvantages. The northern route has a smooth Dajiang waterway and is suitable for large ships. It is slightly more rugged, and most of the other areas have convenient transportation, which is also conducive to the rapid advance of the army. However, Huanggang is the focus of our defense. Along the river, we have already set up many defensive water camps, which can be used for defense and inspection. Now these water camps The battalion has been greatly strengthened due to the tense situation. Many trebuchets and fire crossbows have been installed in the water village, which are enough to pose a considerable threat to the fleet trying to go south along the waterway. There are still five divisions stationed in Fucheng. Now The force of the navy is also continuously moving north from Yueyang to Huanggang. Xijiang will not fail to take this into consideration. It is not easy for them to take Huanggang in one go. If Western Xinjiang chooses the southern route, it should be much easier in theory. Baling is far inferior to Huanggang in terms of defensive force and deployment. However, the river from Lujiang to Baling is narrow, and the waterway traffic is mostly small and medium-sized ships. host. The land is rugged and difficult, transportation is inconvenient, and Baling is adjacent to the Machi Khans. Xijiang's actions in Baling will inevitably be restricted by the Machi Khans, especially the Machi Khans are now fighting hard in the peninsula. It's fun, if Xijiang really opened up a battle line in Baling, it's hard to say how the Maqihan people will react.
Situ Biao's face gradually calmed down. It is useless to complain now that he is furious. It is reasonable to calm down and think about how to deal with possible crises. The two paths from west to east have their own advantages and disadvantages. There are possibilities, but Huanggang is now heavily guarded and is not worth worrying about. On the contrary, Baling, although there are two divisions of the Fifth Army Corps stationed, will it be able to withstand the attack of the Western Frontier Army?
"If I were Li Wufeng, I would definitely choose Baling as the main attack point. We have 100,000 heavy troops guarding Huanggang. Although his First Army is strong, it only has 100,000 people after all, and Huanggang's terrain and climate are good for them to fight in the north. It must have had much influence on the Western Frontier Army. Once they get into a hard fight in Huanggang, I am afraid it will have a great impact on their morale, so I infer that Li Wufeng will choose the Baling line. It has been a long time, and our defense in Baling is not stable. I am afraid that for them, except for Heshou Pass, which is more difficult, others are easy to overcome. Combining various factors, choosing Baling should be a more realistic plan At this time, Situ Biao has slowly returned to normal, and his thinking has become clearer.
"Well, Your Highness's inference is correct. It should be a wise choice for Li Wufeng to choose the southern line as a breakthrough. However, although their Lujiang navy has been in operation for a long time, the scale is too small. It may be impossible to launch an attack on Baling by water. If it is said that land and water advance together, then the rugged terrain between Baling and Lujiang will be another test for them. The subordinates have also taken this into consideration. The Heshou Pass between the rivers has strengthened its defenses, and it is not easy for Li Wufeng to break through there. If His Highness is not at ease, he might as well strengthen the troops at Heshou Pass. The reconstruction of Heshou Pass cost us a lot of money. Considering the possible threat from the west, the scale of defense has been intentionally expanded and the defense standard has been raised against the west, and now it is time for it to play a role.”
Stroking a few thin beards under his jaw, Hu Tingzhi was very satisfied that Situ Biao was able to take this into consideration. The possibility that the river might go south is the Heshoushui Wharf next to Heshouguan. After taking down Baling, it was worried about the threat of the Lujiang Navy, so it specially chose the narrow part of the river to build a stone fort that can block the waterway. Dozens of giant trebuchets and fire crossbow launchers are close to the city wall of Heshouguan. If you want to force it through the waterway, you will only end up with shipwreck and death.
Hearing what Hu Tingzhi said, Situ Biao couldn't help but feel relieved, "Ting Ding, are you sure that Heshou Pass can stop the Western Border Army from going east?"
"His Royal Highness, there is no checkpoint that can really stop the army's attack. After all, it is people, not facilities, that determine the outcome of a war. However, Heshou Pass is indeed well-built. I am afraid that Your Highness has never visited it before. After two times, if only one regiment is enough to withstand the attack of a division, unless Xijiang is willing to use a legion to break through there, otherwise the result there may disappoint Li Wufeng. I also believe that Li Wufeng's subordinates The military staff should be aware of this, so I still don't quite believe that they will choose the southern route." Hu Tingzhi's euphemistic words actually expressed different opinions in disguise.
"Does Tingzhi mean the western border or maybe choose the northern line as a breakthrough point?" Situ Biao fixed his eyes on Hu Tingzhi's face.
"Well, Your Highness, to be honest, I don't know what to do now. The three prefectures next to Kansai, except Yueyang because the border area with Jincheng and Lujiang are all high mountains, Huanggang and Ba It is possible that the people of Xijiang can cross the steep Wushan Mountain. We can only do this now. It is only reasonable to concentrate on taking down Jiujiang. We will be invincible if we take Jiujiang before the lake, and we will be invincible." Hu Tingzhi finally expressed his innermost feelings, of course, crossing Wushan is just a joke, Wushan is famous for its precipitous empire, and many tourists and mountaineering enthusiasts like to go there I am looking for a quiet range rover here, but I have never heard of an army that can pass through here. "What we need to supervise most now is the Jiujiang River Front. Let those two divisions strengthen their attacks. Cheng Dayou's troops on the South Front are not enough." Many, relying entirely on the terrain to resist, as long as we strengthen our attack, I think they can even attack Jiujiang faster than Luoshan."
Situ Biao's eyes returned to the map for a long time, before he said bitterly: "Tingzhi is right, it seems that the king must go to the battle in person to supervise the battle, anyway, Tingzhi, you sit in Yueyang on behalf of the king. Ben Wang will rush to Anqing now, and Ben Wang wants to see if Cheng Dayou's rebel army has really become an iron army!"
Seeing that Hu Tingzhi was startled and wanted to wait to speak again, Situ Biao waved his hand impatiently and said, "This king has made up his mind. Tingzhi doesn't need to say more. Let's celebrate after taking Jiujiang. The defense in the west Please Tingzhi, although there are no big moves in Xijiang, we must not take it lightly, we must keep track of the information, as long as the Xijiang navy moves, it means that Li Wufeng will do something, please report to me immediately .”
Seeing that the lord has made up his mind, Hu Tingzhi no longer repeats it. Now this battle is like a race between the two sides. It should be said that according to the current situation, Jiujiang will fall sooner or later, but Xijiang can sit back and watch Jiujiang fall. what? If Xijiang can attack the inland of the Five Lakes before Jiujiang is breached, it means that Xijiang's sweep of the Five Lakes is irreversible, and all blocking forces will be swept into the garbage dump of history. If Jiujiang is eliminated before Xinjiang invades the inland of the five lakes, even if Xijiang can invade the inland of the five lakes, then this battle will become a protracted battle that Xijiang least wants to see, and the balance of the war will also favor the Situ family On the one hand, Situ Tai will launch an offensive in the north even without urging him, and the waiting forces in the imperial capital will all fall to the Situ family, and no one can predict what will happen in the end~IndoMTL.com~ All of this will be in the end The timeline of the fall of Jiujiang.
While the Nine-Yellow War was getting more and more intense, none of the mean and dirty guys that Situ Biao mentioned seemed to be idle. Helped his elder brother to design him as he did.
A trace of prestige flashed across the beautiful and bright phoenix eyes. Situ Yushuang never thought that the situation would develop to this point. She knew that her sixth brother would be gnashing her teeth at this moment. He tried his best to match up and make promises. His sixth brother would probably not easily send troops to Jiujiang anyway. He would rather watch Li Wufeng and Situ Tai fight to the end and perish than participate in it. The mind is clearer than anyone else.
But what Situ Yushuang didn't expect in the end was that Yusuf, who had always been swearing, had promised to dispatch a division to cooperate with the Eighth Army to go south to help capture Jiujiang, but Yusuf suddenly changed his mind at the last minute and retreated to the west. Xinjiang made some changes in the west in the name of refusing to send troops. This directly led to the Eighth Army, which had been hesitant because of the inconsistent attitudes between itself and the seventh brother, also stood still. The center of gravity in this center of gravity has not sent a single soldier. Such a result threw Situ Biao, who was the last reluctant to join, to the cusp of the storm. Jiujiang was still unable to win, and the main force of the Sixth Army was dragged into the Jiujiang battle. Even Situ Yushuang in the imperial capital could feel the pressure brought by it deeply.
