Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 48 Huge waves

When Fielding went all out to purge Anyuan, the other two original protagonists had already sneaked into Bashan Prefecture.

Li Wufeng and Liang Chongxin disappeared after they both showed up in Jincheng two days ago. They inspected the training situation of the navy on the river from Jincheng to Hanzhong. Most of the tributaries come from mountain springs and snow-capped mountains. This waterway with the largest amount of water in the empire has not been greatly affected. The water army drawn from Baixiang Lake finally officially appeared in broad daylight. Outside the third battalion and fifteen medium-sized ships With dozens of small ships, although the scale is not large, it is enough to prove that the Northwest does not just want to dominate on land.

The grand military formation ceremony attracted the attention of the surrounding forces. Wufeng invited the neighboring third and sixth princes, as well as all parties from the imperial capital's military headquarters, to visit his naval formation ceremony. The water drill lasted for two days. It also allowed spies from all sides to flock here to observe and understand the true situation of the Northwest Navy from various angles.

Needless to say, the personnel sent by the three or six two princes, but the espionage personnel from the Maqihan people, the Lin family of Sanjiang and even the Tiannanlang family gathered in Jincheng, and the naval fleet from Baixiang Lake along the river eastward was in Hanzhong. Li Wufeng and Liang Chongxin followed and observed the whole process until Jincheng held the ceremony of forming an army.

But when people were still immersed in the performance of the navy, Li and Liang quietly rushed from Jincheng to Bashan day and night, and returned to Bashan from Jincheng in just two days. In the barracks, apart from two of the five divisions of the Northwest Army Corps and the Second Guards Division, the First Guards Division, which had been resting for more than half a year, also quietly arrived here. The special cavalry has gathered 100,000 troops and stationed here. In the entire Kansai theater, except for Tianshui and Lujiang, which are also stationed by the Second Division of the North Luzon and the Second Division of the Northwest Army, even the Jincheng Mansion does not retain the army. , All the troops were placed in Bashan Prefecture.

Without taking any rest, Wufeng and Liang Chongxin went down to various places to check the preparations of the various divisions in person. The gathering of more than 100,000 horses won't be able to hide it for long, but Wufeng doesn't hope to hide it In the southern part of the world, the Lang family has already become a frightened bird. They are afraid that they will keep their eyes on Bashan at any time, and they will immediately respond to any disturbance. A military transfer of this scale will definitely arouse the suspicion of the other party. It's just that the Tiannan Army is already in dilapidated condition, and the main force has been dragged down by the Burmese Wenna Army. Even if it's a direct confrontation, the Northwest Army can easily win. Wufeng and Liang Chongxin have no objection to this point. , especially since the Eastern Continent has already been affected by the drought, Tiannan is no exception. Judging from the comprehensive analysis of all aspects of intelligence, this is the best time to obtain Tiannan, and there must be no further delay.

Seeing the information in his hand, the middle-aged man's face turned pale, and his hands, which had always been as calm as a mountain, couldn't help trembling slightly. He took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions, but found that He couldn't do this either, so he dropped the information in his hand, took a sip of cold tea, calmed down with the coolness down his throat, and said slowly: "Mubai, so Li Wufeng is definitely going to go south. Huh? Didn’t yesterday’s information say that he and Liang Chongxin are still presiding over his navy formation ceremony in Jincheng?”

"My lord, I'm afraid this is their smoke screen. Now we have found three divisions of the Northwest Army in Bashan, and an unknown number of nomadic cavalry. Such a large-scale army has gathered in Bashan. You said they would What are you doing?" Yang Mubai's brows were deeply worried, the enemy's army was about to invade, but the army defending the northern provinces of Dandong and Zhujiang was only the second army that had just been reorganized, while the opponent was the main army with many battles. There is no suspense about the outcome of this battle. The only thing to watch is to see how much breathing time these two provinces can win for their side, but what if they win a few days? It is too late to withdraw all the troops from Myanmar, and if they are withdrawn, it will only aggravate the shake of the army's morale. Now the first battle in Myanmar is at the most critical moment, and Wenna will be wiped out within half a month. Wenna has no way out Yes, but now...

Yang Mubai rubbed his forehead in some pain and pondered. Li Wufeng chose a good time, and it happened to be at this juncture, which made him in a dilemma. The problem of Li Wufeng's annexation came up. The greedy Northwest Army deliberately found such an opportunity, and they will definitely not give up easily. Otherwise, Tiannan's decades-long foundation will be destroyed.

The middle-aged man only feels that he is exhausted physically and mentally at this time. Over the past year, he has experienced countless great joys and sorrows, which made his spirit deteriorate day by day. From retreating to the south of the sky to the rebellion in Burma, the many hardships and resistances in the process made him realize that he was really old. Help, I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore.

"Mubai, according to your opinion, what should we do now? The tiger and wolf division under Li Wufeng's command is not an ordinary army, nor is it comparable to the rebel army in Wenna and the army of the Lin family. The legion is not enough to resist their attack, and it can last for a week is the limit, and it depends on the favorable terrain of the two places to stop the opponent." The middle-aged man rubbed his temples with a wry smile, "We don't have enough time to organize an effective defense Already."

"My lord, I'm afraid it's too late to send troops from Burma. The only way now is to ask the Lin family for help. Maybe this is the only way out. As for whether it will succeed or not, we have to resign ourselves to fate." Yang Mubai said sadly, Xiang has always been the biggest The enemy asked for help, this kind of humiliation is not something everyone can accept, and Mr. Yi Jiedu's temper may not be able to accept it, but now that he has come to this point, it seems that there is no way out.

"The Lin family?" The somewhat confused middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, his expression fluctuating, and after a long time he turned his head aside and said in a barely audible voice: "Forget it, I'll leave this matter to you Let's do it."

Shaking his head, the middle-aged man sighed wearily and said again: "Mubai, I'm going to rest first, you can handle everything as you see fit, you don't have to report everything to me." After speaking, He lowered his head and went out, leaving only Yang Mubai sitting desolately in the room alone. Although it was already the midsummer season, the chill in Yang Mubai's heart was still lingering.

My lord's spirit has already broken down, I'm afraid he can no longer be as powerful as before, even if he can get away with this catastrophe. Since the defeat in Kansai, the spirit of the adults is not as good as before. He either stays at home and drank his sorrows all day long, and Wen Na's rebellion is actually related to his strategic mistakes. If it is not for the forced order Maybe things won't get so bad when the Third Army enters Burma.

Now the war in Burma has been dragging on for a long time, which not only consumed a lot of military and material resources in Tiannan, but also due to the poor harvest of Xiaochun, the famine that had not been encountered for many years began to appear in the other four provinces except Nanfeng Prefecture, and the hungry people began to plunder the landlords As well as the Mipu Grain Store, many farmers in the poorer areas began to flee famine and developed into refugees, and the situation began to become unstable. Now Tiannan has no surplus food to relieve the hungry people. This situation also makes me a headache. The suppression could only have a temporary effect. As soon as the army left, the hungry and refugees began to loot everywhere again. The gentry were terrified, but no one was willing to donate food for relief. The local government has repeatedly been in a hurry, and this temporary emergency measure may be able to cope for a while ~IndoMTL.com~ But it will only make things worse.

What should I do? Yang Mubai who was sitting blankly in the room had a splitting headache.

After seeing off the Tiannan envoy, Lin Guoxiong sat alone in the room in a daze. Unexpectedly, Lang Yongquan, the hero of the first generation, would fall to such a point that he would ask for help from his life-and-death enemy for decades. It is conceivable how bad the situation in Tiannan has become.

Lin Guoxiong only felt chills all over his body. The rabbit died and the fox was sad, his lips were dead and his teeth were cold. He chewed two idioms repeatedly in his mouth. , although he has always regarded Lang Yongquan as an enemy, he also admires that this guy can compete with him for more than ten or twenty years. Seeing that the opponent is about to end, and who will the enemy attack next, thinking of this, Lin Guoxiong couldn't help but fight A chill.

Send reinforcements? But where did I send it from? The disastrous defeat in Kansai has seriously hurt his vitality, and Northern Rhonesia has held back his three elite divisions. The Maqihan people in Yuejing are about to move again. I don’t know whether they want to go north to the five lakes or spy on them. What about Sanjiang? Shaking his head, Lin Guoxiong was hesitant. Even if he sent reinforcements, would it be effective? Once the Lang family is destroyed, will Li Wufeng just use this reason to attack himself?

After walking around the room a few times, Lin Guoxiong still couldn't make up his mind, what should he do? Yuexin was not there, so Lin Guoxiong could only recall the benefits of his daughter at this time. The two sons would not dare to speak out about such a big event. decision.

The sunlight slanted into the room and cast Lin Guowei's slightly aged and stooped figure on the floor. The King of Sanjiang, who once galloped across the battlefield, looked so helpless at this moment.
