Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 18 Suffering
Cui Wenxiu nodded, "Although Qi Bolin led the German Guard Division to work hard, after all, they haven't gone through any major battles, and they really need one or two real battles to temper and test the combat effectiveness of this army. Okay. The duration of this war will not be short, I believe everyone will have a chance."
"Wenxiu, I saw why your division is preparing for the march. Are you going to start again?" Mulige finally brought the topic back to business.
"Well, my lord has come with an order, and I'm just waiting for you two." Cui Wenxiu immediately took out a secret letter and briefly read out the order: "Mulige is now in charge and Shalang is in charge. Stationed on the shore of Boyue Lake (the core area of the Mot people), the first division of the Tengger Army will immediately mop up the shore of Boyue Lake.”
"Oh? Your division is about to carry out raids?" Mulige and Shalang were taken aback for a moment, then filled with envy.
"Well, I guess the problem is the supply issue. The Guards Division and the Zeppelin Division have to follow up. This logistics issue, especially the supply of food and grass, is under great pressure. The Mott cavalry on this grassland All over the world, once the food and grass are eaten, I am afraid that the transportation problem will have to be put on the agenda, and it is a difficult problem to ensure the logistics transportation." Cui Wenxiu is also a little worried, he only has one division, how to ensure the smooth transportation of the four hundred miles It needs to be carefully considered, but now it seems that even Master Li has no better way. Although the war has to pay the price, it is an old saying that the soldiers and horses go first before the food and grass are used. If the logistics cannot be guaranteed, then this battle is true. It will be difficult to fight.
"Your Excellency probably also considered this point. Mo Lun has mobilized all the transport vehicles that can be mobilized in Qingyang, and they have shipped a large amount of grain and grass to follow us. This guy Mo Lun is really willing this time. Qingyang requisitioned all the horses and vehicles that could be requisitioned, and also borrowed some vehicles from Jinzhou. I estimate that the food they transported this time is enough for at least two months." Sha Lang comforted Cui Wenxiu with a smile.
"I don't even think about it, Master Li personally ordered that Mo Lun must prepare it within a week, otherwise he will be held accountable for negligence of duty. Mo Lun was so scared that he couldn't get a good rest for a week." Mu Li Grid also smiled and took up the conversation.
Hearing what the two said, Cui Wenxiu was determined. It seems that Master Jiedushi is also prepared to fight a protracted battle. He is still worried about the logistics. I believe it will take more than two months There are methods that can force the Motts to stand up and make a complete end.
Guldan and Kurdo watched helplessly as the more than 100,000 Northwest Army camped on the shore of Boyue Lake and never took a step forward. A month passed in a blink of an eye, but there was no movement. The troops peeked around the Northwest Army on the shore of Boyue Lake for a few times, but it was difficult to find a suitable striker. The more than 100,000 Northwest Army was like a huge hedgehog entrenched in the core area of the Mott territory, wantonly provoking, just so patiently Waiting for the long-awaited decisive battle to come.
This is not the only thing that makes Gul'dan extremely anxious. All kinds of rumors are already raging in the tribe. The Boin people in the northern part of the Sithrow Empire have launched a rebellion again. , has abandoned the Mote people, Guer Sufu has obtained the official title conferred by the Tanghe Empire, and has become the legal leader of the Mote people. The Tengger War is imminent, and the Luobei people no longer have much energy to manage the Mot people. These rumors have aroused great repercussions in the tribe, and not only those who had opposed themselves began to jump out and publicly accused themselves , even the words of those who originally supported him became cloudy and cloudy, and the ordinary herdsmen under the nobles complained even more, and moved to areas close to the territory of the Luobei people, not only the livestock and grass could not be guaranteed , A large number of livestock starved to death, and many people have begun to ask their masters to think about their lives in the second half of the year. Many herdsmen even began to flee at night, and the 200,000 Mott army gathered here became restless and demanded to be with them. The calls of the Northwest Army to fight to the death are getting louder and louder.
But Kurdo firmly opposes this. The Northwest Army, which has the advantage of infantry, really has the upper hand against the light cavalry-based troops on the grassland. I think it's purely a daydream. He has already had a deep understanding of the fighting power of the Northwest Army. He recalled that when he had the upper hand, he was still beaten to death by the remnant army led by Li Wufeng under the city of Qingyang. His anger was always replaced by calmness slowly rising. .
However, the situation of the Mott people in front of him can't help him to consider that if these nobles can't bear it any longer, the foundation of Gul'dan's regime will collapse, and those nobles may immediately fall into Li Wufeng's arms If you slavishly ask that Guer Sufu to come back, then the interests of the Luobei people will be greatly harmed, and the Mot people will turn into a sharp knife stuck in the waist of the Luobei people, which is unacceptable .
"General, we can't wait any longer. I have received a secret report that the Northwest Army has started to burn the pastures around Boyue Lake again. Now is the time for the young grass to sprout and grow. They are going to kill us. The way of life for the special people, once these pastures are burned by them, at least there will be no harvest for this season, what do the livestock eat, how do we have so many people to survive this year?" Guldan who rushed in could no longer Keep calm, roared.
Just now, those nobles in their account have made it clear that if they do not take any action, they will have to take action by themselves. Although the true meaning of the following words has not been stated, the implied meaning is clear and unmistakable. He, who has only been a chief for less than two months, is probably about to die.
Ku Erdo paced around the tent with his hands behind his back impatiently. Li Wufeng was really vicious. One side was able to give the other party a hard blow, but the pasture was destroyed. Hundreds of thousands of people from the Mott clan could not survive this year. Going to die, facing the powerful infantry defense system of the Northwest Army, Kurdo did not believe that he could win the victory.
"Master Chief, I understand your feelings, but how sure are you when you go to a decisive battle with Li Wufeng in such a panic?" Kurdo ignored the other party and asked instead, "The combat effectiveness of Li Wufeng's Gaoyue infantry I'm afraid you also know that now they are waiting for you to come to your door. They set fire to the pastures with a very clear purpose, just to let you step on this trap. Can't you see? Your light cavalry are standing up like this Go charge, I'm afraid you will lose a lot." Although he scolded the other party's stupidity and short-sightedness in his heart, Kurdo still used words that were easier for the other party to accept, considering the other party's identity.
"Hmph, General Kurdo, but you didn't say that when you supported our rebellion. At that time, you swore that you would help us eliminate the Tanghe people who dared to invade the Tengger Grassland, but now? , Li Wufeng has been resting by the Boyue Lake for more than a month, but you are fearful of the enemy. I can't believe how you Luobei people can compete with the Chidi people on the Tengger Grassland? Known as the three warriors who conquered the East, how will the performance of the warriors be like this? If the general still feels afraid to touch the people of Tanghe, then I, Gu Erdan, have nothing to say. I only blame myself for being blind. Lead our brave Mort warriors to meet these Tanghe people who dare to invade the land where we have lived for generations!" At this time, Guldan could no longer care about the other party's reaction, and the huge pressure had made him speechless, angry His gaze was firmly fixed on the livid face of the other party~IndoMTL.com~ Facing such rude and presumptuous words of the other party, Kurdo also became angry. No one dared to despise himself so much, this idiot, Do you think you can deal with the cunning Northwesterners with your bravery? Why did he fall in love with this guy blindly at the beginning? Kurdo suppressed the anger in his heart, but when he saw the bloodshot eyes and exhausted expression on the opponent's face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Sometimes he felt a painful dilemma, but now he attacked rashly. He was afraid that people would go and no one would come back. He didn't dare to take his soldiers to risk.
"Master Chief, I ask you to calm down your hot head. This will not help the resolution of the matter. We Luobei people always keep our word, and I have never said that I will not help you repel the Tanghe people aggression, but before we act, we must have a careful plan and the necessary certainty." Kurdo took a deep breath, and said lightly, after a lot of wind and rain, he is no longer the same as he was in Tuda. The general's subordinates are so impulsive, especially here that he is still a guest minister, and his task is to maintain the regime of the Mote people who are pro-Luobei people.
Hearing that there were signs of loosening in the other party's words, like a drowning person suddenly finding a life-saving straw, Guldan's spirit was lifted, and he hurriedly walked two steps to Kurdo and said in a pleading tone: " General Kurdo, I have lost my composure, but please understand my difficulties. If we don’t react, I’m afraid the nobles under me will really rebel and join the enemy. I don’t think you want to see this scene. Is it happening? As long as there is a way to get rid of the Tanghe people in front of us, I think we are willing to pay no matter how high the price is."
