Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 78 Turning point
Thinking of this, Fielding smiled. Is there any other possibility? Siege of Jiayuguan? It's pure nonsense, I'm afraid that if their own supplies run out, Jiayuguan can still last for a year or so. Will it directly attack Taixuanfu City? The experienced and cautious Fielding analyzed and ruled out step by step, it was impossible. If he wanted to attack Taixuanfu City, he had to cut off the connection with Jiayuguan to prevent pincer attack. support, they can only do so to humiliate themselves.
But when his eyes fell on the south side of Taixuan Mansion, the experienced Fielding finally felt something strange. Is the troops of the Western Military Region of the Empire a little too weak? Seeing that the regular garrisons in the entire Guanxi County and Heshuo County were only a few five divisions, Fielding was a little uneasy. If his Taixuanfu City was really attacked, it would be really difficult for him to get reinforcements from the empire for a while. . Moreover, the garrison of the Western Military Region is really too weak. If something really breaks out, it may be difficult for the existing troops to control the situation.
Fielding sighed, and hoped that the situation he envisioned would not happen. The situation in the northwest is unstable now, and Li Wufeng is in the imperial capital. What's more, my relationship with the Northwest Military and Political Jiedu's Mansion is also in a strange state. It's hard to say whether they will take advantage of the fire.
Just as Fielding was thinking about it, the Kaman army that had already been ready to go finally appeared on the land of Taixuan Mansion. The 120,000 troops led by Claudia appeared at the southern foot of the Zagros Mountains in the northeast of Taixuan Mansion as if descended from the sky, and marched westward quickly along the lowlands at the foot of the mountain. Except for the soldiers of the Seventh Corps, the other soldiers all wore orange-yellow war robes, showing their distinctive identities as the Royal Guards. At the same time, the Sixth Corps led by the Duke of Mailey also marched westward, aiming at the Taixuan Mansion, but it seemed that the speed of progress was much slower.
Fielding was a little puzzled when he received the news about the horse scouting. The 120,000 troops marched westward along the edge of the Zagros Mountains. The target was of course Jiayuguan. Of course he knew the Kaman people's desire for Jiayuguan, but the problem Is it because they want to take Jiayuguan with these 120,000 troops? Fielding subconsciously shook his head. What about the army that came from Fufu City? Do they really want to take Taixuanfu City or just attract troops from Taixuanfu City to prevent reinforcements from Jiayuguan? Why is there such a big difference in their marching speed? Could it be that their goal is really Jiayuguan?
A series of contradictory information made Fielding dizzy and unable to judge. But he was not idle. While ordering the Second Security Division stationed in Taixuanfu City to quickly enter a state of combat readiness, he also issued a martial law order. The reservists were transferred to active duty, and the fourth garrison division was newly established, with the director of combat readiness as the head of the division, immediately doubling the garrison in Taixuanfu Fucheng, reaching nearly 50,000 people.
While issuing this series of orders, he also immediately sent an urgent official document to his nominal superior, the Northwest Military and Political Jiedu Mansion, requesting immediate reinforcements from the Northwest Military and Political Jiedu Mansion, while the other Kuai Ma had already Before that, Xingye galloped to the capital first, and reported to the military headquarters as quickly as possible.
Looking at the Wanrenxiong Pass in front of him, Claudia couldn't help but be moved. It was this pass, known as the No. The army can only be consumed in front of this pass year after year. In addition to the soldiers of their own country throwing their heads and blood here, the soldiers of the Sithrow Empire who are also eager to go south are not much less dead here than their own country.
Seeing the coach staring blankly at the level in front of him that no one seems to be able to capture, Viscount Dominic next to him also sighed softly. As a soldier, he can understand that the attacking party The feeling that the generals will have when they see this majestic and impeccable level is a feeling of helplessness that makes people feel hopeless.
The majestic city wall, the wide moat, the well-equipped crossbows, catapults, dark forts, and arrow holes on the city wall, and even the neatly arranged rolling logs and stones can be vaguely seen, coupled with the dangerous mountains around, it is enough to let the Stay away from anyone. The front of the city wall has been cleaned up, except for the moat, there is nothing, and there is no place to hide and stand.
"Your Excellency, the soldiers are waiting for your instructions." Seeing that the commander-in-chief hadn't recovered for a long time, Dominic had no choice but to remind him quietly.
"Oh, order the Seventh Corps to garrison the left and right flanks, and the guards to camp in the middle. Your Excellency, Viscount, you can arrange the mission of the scouts, pay attention to the situation on our flanks and behind, and send someone to contact Duke Malley immediately and tell him We have already entered the attack area as planned. Send someone to contact there and tell them that we will launch an attack in three days." Claudia regained his composure as if waking up from a dream.
"Of order." Dominic nodded, and immediately went down to make arrangements.
On the sea to the east of Yuhang Prefecture in the south of the Yangtze River is a group of more than a hundred small islands. It is the famous Zhoushan Islands in the empire for its beautiful scenery. Among them, Putuo Island is the most famous small island. The upper peak is protruding and the mountains and rivers are beautiful. On it are the famous Putuo Temple in the empire and Tingchao Pavilion for enjoying the scenery of the sea. This is also the location of the Imperial Summer Palace. Almost every year, His Majesty the Emperor would come here to cool off during the two hottest months of the year, and this year is no exception.
The scenery of Putuo is beautiful, the harmonious blend of mountains and water, the endless blue sea, and the soft sandy beach as white as silver, all of which make people feel relaxed and happy. However, He Zhiqiu, who was traveling as an accompanying driver, could not let go of his official duties. Although the army on the southern front kept strong pressure on the Machi Khans, the Machi Khans never sent their Royal Forest Corps to confront the empire. Fortunately, Lei Juetian was seriously injured when he was assassinated, and the Machi Khans immediately lost their backbone and were unable to respond in time, and the reinforcements from the Nanyang Alliance only stayed in the city of Jiaxi in the Kingdom of Naples, and would never go forward again. Further, thinking of this, He Zhiqiu couldn't help but sincerely thank that unknown force for the assassination, which at least made it impossible for the Maqihan people to make big moves in the near future. This is a great thing for the Lin Lang family. The plan can be regarded as basically achieved the goal.
However, the information that came from the imperial capital one after another in the past two days has added a lot of trouble to He Zhiqiu. The imperial inspection team aroused public anger in the northwest, Gaoyue barbarian soldiers mutinied, the local government was unable to respond, and the situation in the northwest was turbulent Uneasy, all this made He Zhiqiu feel a headache.
He Zhiqiu knew the greed and shamelessness of those aristocrats very well. He didn't expect that such a big mess would be created in the Northwest with complicated ethnic groups. The Gaoyue barbarians were barbarians that Li Wufeng took back with great difficulty. How could you offend them? Even if those barbarians smashed the nobles into pieces, Zhiqiu and Zhiqiu would not shed a tear, and would even applaud, but it would have a huge impact on His Majesty the Emperor. After all, the nobles are the cornerstone of the imperial family, even though they have fallen. It has reached the point where it cannot be added, but the empire still cannot sit idly by.
But how can it be proved that this is not a conspiracy directed by Li Wufeng himself? Could it be that Northwest really became so out of control after leaving Li Wufeng? He Zhiqiu was full of doubts about this point, but the information sent by the intelligence department was vague on this point, and there was no way to confirm it. For this reason, He Zhiqiu and His Majesty the Emperor have discussed it twice, but they still cannot reach a consensus.
He Zhiqiu knew the pressure His Majesty was under. The relatives and friends of those nobles were also celebrities in the upper class of the empire. Let Li Wufeng return to the northwest to stabilize the overall situation, so as to protect the lives of those nobles. This time, even Ning Yuanwang and the others succumbed to the pressure of those nobles, and did not dare to insist on opposing opinions. It seemed that only His Highness supported him in the entire court, but He Zhiqiu knew that His Highness was not really on his side , he has his own ideas.
Under his own insistence, His Majesty finally accepted his opinion and asked the court to send officials to the Northwest immediately to understand the facts before making a conclusion. But this time, His Majesty the Emperor summoned him immediately, will there be any changes?
The emperor's majesty's face was frighteningly gloomy, and the faces of the ministers and princes beside him were also gloomy. When He Zhiqiu took the front-line battle report and read it, his head buzzed suddenly.
Kaman's army aggressively invaded the Czech Republic and the Taixuan Mansion of the Empire. The Taixuan Mansion and Jiayuguan were in emergency at the same time, and the Western Military Region had almost no more troops to deploy. However, the request for help from the northwest was rejected by the other side because the situation was unstable. , requesting immediate assistance from the Empire.
After carefully calculating the enemy's strength, the Kamans have dispatched more than 400,000 troops this time. It is obviously not a small move, but a promising one. It is a really big move~IndoMTL.com~ He Zhiqiu, who had already been notified by Lu Wenfu of the situation in Kansai before leaving Beijing, had already noticed the hidden dangers in Kansai. The existing troops in the Western Military Region had reached an extremely dangerous level. The army of Heshuo County has been transferred to Taixuan for reinforcements. Otherwise, once there is a riot as Lu Wenfu said, I am afraid that it will not be a gain or loss for one city and one place, and chaos throughout the country may follow.
"Your Majesty, I suggest that Li Wufeng return to the northwest immediately, order him to immediately stabilize the local situation, and immediately lead the army to reinforce Taixuan to ensure the stability of Taixuan Mansion. I estimate that the purpose of the Kaman people is Taixuan Mansion. If it is lost, Jiayuguan will become an isolated city, and no matter how long it holds on, it will fall sooner or later." He Zhiqiu, who had made up his mind in his heart, showed extraordinary determination, contrary to his attitude of resolutely refusing to let Li Wufeng return to the northwest two days ago.
The change in He Zhiqiu's attitude surprised Situ Mingyue, but now he was a little hesitant, "He Aiqing, can we let the Xibu Military Region or the City Guards go for reinforcements first?"
"I'm afraid it won't work, Your Majesty, the city guards can't deal with the fire at a distance, and the army in the Western Military Region has reached the minimum number, and they must not move, otherwise, if something happens, I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with it." He Zhiqiu's attitude was extremely firm.
Situ Mingyue only mentioned it, but actually didn't have too many other thoughts. Hearing what the Minister of Military Affairs said, he nodded in agreement, and didn't ask He Zhiqiu what he meant by what he said. What, maybe he thought it was a threat from the Lin family in the south, and He Zhiqiu, who had already spoken, let go of the heart hanging in his throat, because Lu Wenfu had specifically told him not to expose it now, otherwise both It is possible to startle the enemy, and it may also cause the other party to attack first, but if His Majesty asks, it is really difficult for him to answer.
