Power and Empire Chapter 2343: Lei Dong (9)
Immediately on the **** outside Yanzhou Beiying, Yelu Hongtai, the right minister of the East Ting, looked at the prosperous White River soldiers with complicated eyes, like a rolling dragon rushing in front of this one that has been withered and ruined a lot. Yanzhou Beiying, the wind is cold and chilly. It is expected that Beiying will encounter the most fierce resistance. The tall outer walls are already covered with moss. Some urban areas that have just been repaired are long gone.
The once glorious Beiying camp is like garbage discarded by people. No one will look at it again. It is hard to imagine that the Beiying camp was full of people and soldiers, and transported. The endless stream of caravans has shocked the young man named Yelu who followed the family caravan.
In Yelv Hongtai’s memory, this Beiying, which is like a city, has six or seven large-scale commercial towns outside. Now, these towns outside the city are full of weeds and ruined walls. In the hearts of a generation of prairie people, Yanzhou Beiying is the memory of blood, with Shangjing at the core of Yanzhou barrier in the south, Hural Pass in the north, and Zhongbia Xiongcheng, which echoes the two lines of Baihulin, a major town in the north of Yanzhou. ,
The Central Biya Empire has launched large-scale military operations on the northern grasslands many times. These two points were used as the starting points. Many people in the grasslands may not know the Baili Long Court of the Central Biya Empire. However, I have known the names of Yanzhou Beiying and Baihulin from the time they were sensible, because their parents or grandparents died in the hands of the people of China and Biyadh in these two regions.
Above this male city, I don’t know how many grassland people’s resentment and fear have clung to it, but now, it’s just weeds and weeds,
The Yanzhou barrier has been breached once. During the last retreat, the grassland people destroyed the Yanzhou defense system to a considerable extent. Broken walls, withered barriers, and large sections of collapsed stones were reflected in the blood-colored In the sunset, without sufficient manpower, it is impossible to restore the defense system to a usable state in a short time. The Luzhou Army that entered Yanzhou obviously did not expect the prairie people to go south again so quickly. The five thousand defenders at the Hural Pass fought desperately and collapsed for most of them. It only blocked one day, and the northwest gate of Yanzhou was opened. The horseshoe of the prairie people finally stepped into the weeds of Yanzhou with a bit of early spring color
If there were a pair of eyes in the sky at this time, you would see such a picture,
A team of light horses with horn bows slung around their waists and wearing light hard leather armor, methodically approaching the hinterland of Yanzhou, like a series of sharp blades plowing open the land in front of them,
While the cheers of countless other horses were overwhelming, a group of people hurriedly returned to the boiling northern Yanzhou. Most of these prairie people were wearing dirty leather robes, short, sturdy and sturdy. The whole body was already full of fishy smells. Most of them consisted of four or five hundred riders. The personnel were also a mixture of several tribes. They swept Yanzhou where there were almost no people along the way. Only then did they have to return, most of them were Yanzhou in ruins. In the state, the grain and grass that can be found is very pitiful, at most two or three hundred catties of various grains. The team that slowly returned is still driven by a dozen scrawny sheep and horses, and the people above are lazily riding back. Some people were still tearing and vying for two women's clothes with poor workmanship, and they just fell on the ground and fought with each other. There was no one to take care of. At the front of the queue, the little heads of the tribe had their leather robes open. In addition to the muddy body, there is also a heavy **** aura. The ugly face with scars is always twisted.
Yanzhou Zhanyun is following Yelvhongtai’s deployment, dispersing like a storm,
Yelu Hongtai deserves to be the right minister who has been in charge of the royal court for 30 years. Once he is out of the danger, he will immediately show the true color of the old fox. Once out of the mountain pass, he immediately ordered the 80,000 right-hand man Baihe who was behind him to be divided into Three roads marched towards Yanzhou and Shangjing, forcing the main force of the Chinese and Bianbian army to press down on Shangjing and not daring to move. After getting prepared by the Wolf Rui army camp, the equipment was already quite good.
The cluster of light-riding fast horses slammed into the core of Yanzhou and went to Beijing. Although they lacked a bit of the sturdiness after the fierce battle, there is no problem in pretending, not to mention the predecessor of the White River Army. Wang Ting Guards, inside the 80,000 White River pro-army, there are still more than 10,000 Wang Ting Guards who are truly capable of combat. These more than 10,000 real guards appeared in front of the Chinese and Bian army, which is enough to support the whole scene.
, the other tribes that followed, they easily carried out raids on the areas along the way. It seems that Yanzhou is already full of flames, and it seems that there are warriors of steppe people everywhere, and the scale of their launches is not smaller than the previous one. The Biya army would not be aware of it. In fact, with the exception of less than 10,000 elites, most of the grassland troops have fairly average combat power, and may even be inferior to the regular army in China.
The emergency reports from various places of Fengyan for help flew to Beijing like snow flakes. As long as they broke through Yanzhou, even if the Chinese and Bianyan troops wanted to desperately stop them, there would be no possibility! Yelu Hongtai had such an idea, so the 80,000 Baihe army was completely overwhelmed and did not give the main force of the Luzhou army a chance to breathe. The beacon smoke from the north of Yanzhou turned sharply, and it really made the Zhongbia court that had just moved south immediately. Feel the pressure,
Who would have thought that these hundreds of thousands of prairie people were actually forced to go south. Instead, they thought that spring came to the east, and the war that the prairie people had always started in autumn was advanced. In order to continue to defend Yanzhou, the court still gave up Yanzhou. The quarrel has turned into a pot of porridge. Most of the civilian officials said they would stick to Yanzhou, otherwise Yanzhou would be lost, and a large number of prairie cavalry would go down frantically. There was another emperor catastrophe in front of them. Instead, the generals were silent. What is Yanzhou? Even if the generals are not clear about the situation, they can roughly guess part of it.
Yanzhou is a hundred-year-old barrier in the north. It’s not for nothing. Even if it’s been demolished once, the basic framework of the fortified walls is still there. Some heavy city repairs can still be used. Nor is it for the Luzhou Army who arrived in Yanzhou. What kind of underdogs, but the elites who have made a lot of reputation among the suppressed barbarians in the southern town. The Luzhou heavy armor is known as the best in the world.
But in such a short period of time, the 60,000 Luzhou Army was forced to shrink its troops to guard the capital. It is conceivable that the strength of the grassland people is at least two to three times or more than the Luzhou Army. Otherwise, then How could the big Yanzhou be beaten into a hornet’s nest for urgent reports. The strength of the Chinese and Bianya armies has not been restored. Even if the corps that have completed the replenishment, three-quarters of them are recruits who have never been on the battlefield. And because the weaponry gap is too big, many soldiers don't even have armor. How can such a corps fight with the powerful troops on the grassland? The Luzhou Army, who was the first in the battle, was scared to stay in Luzhou. What's the point of going up by yourself?
Sure enough, three days later, the Luzhou Army received even more shocking news. The Luzhou Army captured a head of the grassland in a raid, and learned that the number of grasslanders going south this time may be as many as hundreds of thousands. Only a part of the troops outside, there are more troops coming to Beijing, and the civilian officials who insisted on resisting, their expressions changed when they heard the news,
At this time, I still insisted on saying something to defend Yanzhou and never let the emperor's catastrophe reappear. It would be a joke. The eyes of the generals on the opposite side became cold, and they looked like they were waiting to speak up.
There were more than 60,000 people from the Luzhou Army northward, and there were no follow-up supplements. The original plan was to seize Yanzhou first and move up the truck. Who knows, this time, hundreds of thousands of grasslanders will be killed. . . . . . What else to fight! Urgently ordering the Luzhou army to evacuate from Yanzhou is the journey. The imperial capital has been lost, and it doesn’t matter if another Yanzhou is lost. If even the Luzhou army that suppressed the southern forces is also lost in Yanzhou, then the shaking of the empire is fundamental, the empire Prime Minister Li Tai came out from the head of the civil servants and said a fair word that both sides have a step down the stairs,
"But once Yanzhou is abandoned, once the grassland people go southward in a big way..."
There are still people who want to stand up and refute, and they are immediately stopped by their superiors with words. Didn’t you hear them? What the prime minister said in this time is not what will happen to the defeat, but the loss of the Luzhou army. , Will shake the foundation of the empire! Abandoning Yanzhou, the prairie people may not be going south. If the Luzhou army is lost, the country will be shaken. Is it not clear which is more important?
Hearing the words of this important imperial minister, the air above the court suddenly solidified.
"Guoben...!" The low voice of discussion, everyone's eyes, more or less glances towards the ministers, and the last few, standing at the end, mean that they are not favored by the ministers. , But there is not a trace of loneliness on the faces of these few people, on the contrary, they appear high-spirited, especially a middle-aged man standing in the forefront of a few people, wearing a white hair band, looks good, and has a trace of rebelliousness in his eyes. Qilin’s temperament, the official uniform on his body depicts the color of a three-eyed unicorn. The unicorn is originally a rank among civil officials. It should stand in the top three in terms of standing, but the three-eyed unicorn also has 6 bright colors of purple, red and white. It seems a bit nondescript, the standing position is not the real end, but I want to set up a special position in the Chaotang,
The three-eyed unicorn is a mark of the Southern Song nationality.
In this courtroom, I can have my own independent position. It's all because the Song people's position is detached. They don't need to participate in the courtroom discussion. The reason I saw it today is because these few people undoubtedly carry some kind of The purpose is to understand the direction of the wind on the court in China and Bahia, or what wind has been heard, more likely, it is to put pressure on the court, the middle-aged man at the top of the row, who looks arrogant, is Song Kulian, the son of the current Song lords, came here this time to congratulate the empire on moving to Beijing. It sounds like a bit of irony in it, but, on the contrary, the entire Zhongbia court can only do this. Pretending to be deaf,
The Song is one of the four major first-class clans of the empire. It is located in the mountains of the southern border of the empire. It is the head of the 38 barbarians in the south. It is only a surrender in name. When the China and Biya Empire was established, the Song was already in power. Covered most of the south, and even at that time there was a faint meaning to compete with China and Biya for the world. Ten years of hard work, the barbarians suffered many injuries, and the area of Central and Biyah was gradually stabilized. Seeing that the time was not there, the Song people finally chose to compromise and accept Zhongbia’s first-tier clan was entrusted, and its forces were reduced to the barbarian region south of Nanyu Mountain. It has always been in the water without breaking the river with the Zhongbia court, as if it were an independent small dynasty
During the Sino-Byan Empire War, the barbarians led by the Southern Song clan have been watching this battle coldly. The 100,000 Monanshan Army has also been mobilized frequently recently, not to mention where it obtained the fine iron forging technology. After getting rid of the bottleneck that needed to be sent to the middle of the empire for forging after iron ore was collected in the past, the strength of the Monan Mountain Army, which was equipped with a large number of iron weapons, soared rapidly, and there was already a tendency to confront the heavy armored Luzhou Army. When it comes to the newly migrating imperial capital of China and Biyah, the meaning of it is very interesting. If the Luzhou army that suppresses the south is really to be half-covered with Yanzhou, the Zhongbia court will be unable to suppress the rise of the Song people in the south. , Who dare to think what the situation is!
Now the prairie people are pressing into Yanzhou, and the life of the Luzhou army is unknown. Whoever ate the barbarians in the south, even the emperor, only slightly frowned his eyebrows, and turned the topic to the West Army of the Long Family. Above, I heard that the envoy I had sent was still in Guangling, and the generals who secretly bought were also wavering. Long Yang, who was supposed to have died in the Western Continent, survived miraculously. The Long Family Patriarch has returned, so naturally it is impossible to plan to seize the West. The army’s calculations, not to mention that Longyang really brought a list of iron ore trade from the Western Continent. He really wanted to stab him and couldn’t find a reason. He was frustrated, and, through the war in Yanzhou, he cursed the civil servants and generals again. Again
The attic of the old hall was sour and rotten. Coming out of the hall that was still discussing, Song Kulian covered the sun with her hand and glanced at the distant mountains and waters, the huge lotus lotus shop The lake is full, and the golden lake is swaying with fishermen~IndoMTL.com~Luling, which has just moved to Beijing, the port is full of tall ships with towering masts. It is the time when the spring scenery is the most beautiful.
"Song Hua, are you sure that the prairie people really don't mean to go south this time?"
Looking back from a distance, Song Kulian tilted her head to look at a young man behind her. She was fair-skinned, with a loose robe, and wearing a white sunshade. She stood in the sun with a gust of wind. Yanghe’s refreshing, bright eyes carried a hint of coldness. Just now in Chaotang, everyone only saw Song Kulian, and few people noticed the disdain of the young man named Song Hua’s mouth. /
"The grasslanders who went south this time are not strong enough. They may seem fierce, but they are not enough to fight to the south." Song Hua's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly. "It's the Luzhou army marching north this time. The family can rest assured that it will never come back!"
" It’s no joke to know this kind of thing! The 60,000 Luzhou army must be determined to evacuate, even if the prairie people try their best to stop it, it may not be able to stop it!" Song Kulian's face sank, although the same He belongs to the Song clan, but this Song Hua has already left the family. It's a pity that such talents have been used by the Falcon Empire!
"The Luzhou army marched north, the empire had known for a long time, letting the right army go south, trapping it in Shangjing, just to confuse the line of sight" Song Hua's mouth turned up slightly, and his eyes swept across the mountains and lakes ahead. He said in a positive tone, "It is the entire Zhongbia court that really destroyed the Luzhou Army!" (To be continued.
