Aspirations for Nation and Beauty Chapter 6: Creating the first
On September 2, 699 in the mainland Gregorian calendar, Lan Bailin, the head of the Fourteenth Army of the Empire, led his troops to a fierce battle with the Imperial City Guards in the Sanwangzhuang area in the northeast of Zhongzhou. After a day of fierce fighting, the Imperial City Guards broke through the empire. The Fourteenth Army had multiple lines of defense. The Fourteenth Army was forced to retreat, but was intercepted by the Third Army from the south on the flank. The defeated Fourteenth Army was attacked again by the Third Army. The entire Fourteenth Army collapsed completely. Lan Bailin, the head of the legion, disappeared, and less than 20,000 of the 100,000 troops were able to safely withdraw from the territory of Zhongzhou and flee to Qinghe in the west, while the Imperial City Guards and the Third Army occupied Sanwangzhuang in the northeast corner of Zhongzhou in one fell swoop. Afterwards, the fortress group captured as many as 40,000 surrendered soldiers and defeated soldiers of the 14th Army. They were firmly inserted in the heart of Longquan Mansion in the west like a wedge, and formed a pole against Qinghe in the northwest. big threat.
At the same time, Situtai's six divisions rushed westward from Cangzhou, crossed the border between Cangzhou and Qinghe, and successively launched attacks on the Third Army of Western Xinjiang stationed in the east of Qinghe. The Army Corps and the Third Imperial Army Corps have captured the dangerous stronghold in the northeast of Zhongzhou. Cui Wenxiu ordered the Second Division of the Third Army Corps stationed in the eastern part of the Qinghe River to adopt a steady and steady strategy, retreat in small steps and use the favorable terrain to widen the distance between the enemy's ministries and concentrate superior forces To annihilate the enemy's vital forces, in order to cooperate with the second division's strategy, Cui Wenxiu quietly pulled up the only ranger regiment left in the Heshuo area—the sixth ranger regiment and the third heavy cavalry regiment.
As the head of the Second Division, Gao Ang fully followed the intention of his own head of the army. From Niitou Mountain, Heifengling, and Wangyue Gorge to the east of the Qinghe River, the Second Division performed well. , Sometimes they can't hold on, sometimes they fight back, and sometimes they evacuate without firing a single arrow. Sometimes fighting desperately without retreating, the three divisions of the Twelfth Army that made Situ Taibai attack on the forward line were confused by the inconsistent performance of the second division. But generally speaking, it was still advancing steadily, and it also made Liu Ping, the head of the 12th Legion, who had been a little worried, barely settle down.
It seems that the Western Frontier Army is not ready for a full-scale confrontation with their own side. At least they did not expect that the Imperial City Guards and the Third Army would suddenly attack the Fourteenth Army of the Empire, which has information that is gradually approaching the Western Frontier. Attack. And defeated the Fourteenth Army in one fell swoop, and occupied the Sanwangzhuang Fortress Group in the northeast of Zhongzhou, which was enough to pose a considerable threat to both Qinghe and Longquan. The control of Sanwangzhuang in the hands of Yusuf and Bai Shengjian probably also made the Western Frontier Army stationed in Longquan and Qinghe feel the pressure. Especially Qinghe Mansion in the northwest, which was originally the strongest barrier in the northwest, but the gap of Sanwangzhuang did have a considerable impact on Qinghe Mansion, forcing Qinghe Mansion to have to station more troops, while its periphery was Had to shrink the defense to prevent possible harm from this insertion. And it will have a chain reaction on the entire situation in Beiyuan.
Liu Ping likes the current situation very much. The long border makes it difficult for Li Wufeng to deploy on the northern line. Cui Wenxiu is indeed a strong man, and his Western Xinjiang Third Army Corps must admit that it is an extremely powerful force. However, facing the six or seven hundred miles between Qinghe to Longquan, Longquan and Jinzhong, the three prefectures, it would be too arrogant for only one legion to defend this front. A clever woman can't cook without rice, Cui Wenxiu is only a human being, not a god, and it is impossible to achieve perfection. There are only five divisions in the defense of the three mansions. Even if Qinghe is the focus of defense, it is only three divisions. Jinzhong. If I go forward step by step like this, the pressure will also put the Xijiang Army in a corner waiting to die.
It should be said that the performance of the Twelfth Army has been quite good so far. The three divisions formed parallel shoulders and advanced steadily, supporting each other. The two divisions will also subconsciously slow down the speed of advancement to maintain progress, and Liu Ping is also very careful. The two divisions are ready to deploy as a reserve team at any time, and even combine the cavalry of the two divisions to enhance mobility. To guard against the enemy's counterattack, after all, Cui Wenxiu is an impermanent fighter, and in many battles, he always has a lot of surprise soldiers, which makes people hard to guard against.
Although Gao Ang tried his best to keep his mind calm, the grim reality made him very anxious. The strategy of luring the enemy in the early stage did not seem to be very effective. The three divisions of the Twelfth Army of the Empire performed quite well , it seems that Liu Ping is worthy of being the Four Heavenly Kings under Situ Tai's command. He actually trained his subordinates so well that the distance between each division was only thirty or fifty miles away, and he steadily ate up his defensive positions one by one. I had to throw out baits one after another, but these guys just ate the bait and didn't take the bait. A few times they were about to fall into the hub, but they were just a little bit short, and the enemies on both sides followed up again, making myself lose a tie Luo, seeing that he has crossed the shallow hills to the east and is gradually approaching Qinghefu City, the chances given to him have become less and less.
"Old Gao, how are you?" The stocky and dark man rode his horse to meet him, the spots on his face became more glaring, his eyes were full of eagerness, and another yellow-faced, fierce and lightly armored officer was also skilled in lapping horses With his head turned, Jianma spun beautifully on the spot, and looked at Gao Gao.
"It's still the same. These divisions are really hard to deal with. Damn, they are crowded together, not far or close, and want to eat them together. The strength in our hands is too weak. Let them separate. These guys are more timid than rabbits, and they stay close together for thirty miles, which is too difficult for us." Gao Ang's eyes seemed to be a little anxious, but there seemed to be a glimmer of expectation in the anxiety, which could not be hidden from the fact that he had worked with him for a long time Mao Jin.
"Okay, don't pour cold water on us, you kid must have some idea, hurry up and say it, Maoli and I are waiting anxiously, seeing these guys showing off their power here, we can only stare blankly. It's really going to suffocate us." The stocky man is wearing thick heavy armor, perhaps because of his embarrassment, and the mottled face is more obvious, it is Mao Jin, the commander of the third heavy cavalry division of the third army, as the The only heavy cavalry division in Xijiang, the record of the third heavy cavalry division seems not commensurate with the responsibilities and pressure he bears. Mao Jin is very depressed for this, and has always hoped to prove it with a beautiful performance. The Third Heavy Armored Cavalry Division is definitely not a paper tiger, it is purely a facade to frighten the country folks. These are the words released by some competitors, which made Mao Jin furious, but he couldn't do it.
"Well, there is a chance, but it is a little risky, but I personally think the risk is worth taking." The three of them have already jumped off their horses, but the fighting spirit in Gao Gao's eyes is getting stronger and stronger, and his teeth are clenched. He held his lips, as if he was going to bite his lips to show his determination.
The flames in the eyes of both Mao Jin and the commander of the Sixth Ranger Regiment, Mao Li, who had remained silent all this time, flashed and immediately ignited, "Let's hear it, seeing Situ Tai and his disciples and grandchildren approaching Qinghe like this We in Fucheng have nothing to do, no matter how we feel, we feel a little sorry, as long as there is a chance, I, Mao Jin, would rather give it a try."
As one of the leaders of the Tubu cavalry, Maoli didn't have any extra words. He only nodded his head resolutely to express his support for his colleagues. The Tubu people are good at fighting rather than language.
"Well, let's take a look." Gao Ang squatted down, and then swept the ground with his feet suddenly, and his beautiful snow-sweeping snow-sweeping legs razed a radius of ten feet to the ground. , picked up a dead branch and drew it on the ground.
"This is where we are. This is where the enemy's three divisions are placed in parallel. The distance is less than 30 miles. If we force the march for two hours, we can almost squeeze together. It is difficult for us to start. Here, the intelligence shows that Liu Ping combined the two divisions of his reserve team. Their light cavalry is placed here. Although the distance is a little farther away, don't forget that they are cavalry. Sixty miles is simply too easy for cavalry , once a war breaks out, they may come faster than the two flanking divisions." Gao Ang marked the numbers of the enemy divisions on the ground with a branch in his hand while explaining.
"Our current problem is how to separate these three divisions~IndoMTL.com~ and eat them one by one. Of course, the enemy is not a fool. It is our luck to eat one. The most timid of the heavenly kings, that is to say, the most cautious one, it will take some work for us to swallow his flesh and blood, and the foreshadowing we have done in front of us can be regarded as slightly paralyzing the minds of some enemies."
"Okay, Lao Gao, don't go around, tell me where the opportunity is. According to what you say, we have no chance at all." Mao Jin roared angrily.
"Okay, okay, why don't you have a little patience, look at Maoli, how can you make a big deal?" Seeing that Mao Jin was really going to be angry, Gao Ang turned to the topic, "I observed these three divisions The performance of these three guys in the past few days, it should be said that these three guys are quite stable and conservative. I think that I am the first division, and the other two divisions are separated on both sides, so the situation is better. In normal times, it is meaningless to be bold, but..."
Seeing that both Mao Jin and Mao Li looked over with puzzled eyes, Gao Ang said calmly: "But now, look," Gao Ang casually drew a shallow line on the left side of the First Division of the Twelfth Legion. A shallow line, while a small circle is drawn on the right side. Jiangshan Beauty Chronicle, Chapter 2, Swallowing Thousands of Miles, Chapter 6, Conquering Hegemony, Section 75, Forced Insertion (1)
