Power and Empire Chapter 3194: North to the blood road (1)

"Your Majesty, the Lu's army raided the Luzhou base camp last night. The Zhongbia Court was caught off guard by the 15,000 defenders in Luzhou, and killed more than 3,000 people. The general who was stationed in Luzhou base camp, Yan Hua, was seriously injured and ordered After leaving the Luzhou base camp, he was ambushed by the Lu family on the way, causing heavy casualties. In the end, only 6,000 people ran out. The Chinese and Bianlian courts had declared that the Lu family was a rebel and announced that they would mobilize one hundred thousand troops to attack the Lu family." Li Yuehua's face Weirdly walked in, took a look at the emperor who was flipping through a document, and put the report she had just received on the emperor’s desk. She didn’t know that the emperor had met the Lu family’s head secretly, and she didn’t know that the emperor had given the Lu family a gift. What a great support

In the first battle of Lu Jiang, Lu’s 60,000 went to 40,000, and the remaining 20,000 wounded soldiers amounted to 7,000 or 8,000. The force that can be mobilized is more than 10,000, and the morale of the defeated army is extremely low. In addition to the deliberate embarrassment of the court, all the circumstances indicate that it is impossible for the Lu family to regain its original full strength without ten years, and the Zhongbia court will not at all. Given the time of the Lu family, this is why the Zhongbia court finally decided to renovate the local family. It regained the Luzhou base camp overnight and severely damaged the court’s defenders. It was like a knife, and it penetrated fiercely. Confident confidant of Zhongbia Court

The situation of the local family that had been suppressed turned over overnight! The Lu family, which was hit hard, burst into such combat power. Not to mention Li Yuehua, but the Zhongbian court did not expect it. Of course, it was even more unexpected for the Zhongbian court, and it was happening.

The fat man calmly picked up the piece of information and just glanced at it, and raised his eyebrows. It was interesting. This time Lu Xiaofeng purchased 40,000 sets of light infantry weapons and equipment from the Empire, and now he used it for the raid on Luzhou. The troop strength should be between 30,000. In other words, Lu Xiaofeng still hides 10,000 people. It seems that the Lu family’s generals for decades are not for nothing. It must be prepared to wait for the imperial court army to press the border, and give the court army a surprise. The Lu family has worked hard in Luzhou for decades. If it comes to understanding the terrain of Luzhou, the Lu family says second, absolutely no one dares to say first. , Such a powerful home advantage, suddenly attacked at a certain key position, more than ten thousand ambush soldiers are enough to affect the entire battlefield pattern

Li Yuehua saw the emperor’s calm look in his eyes, an unnatural thought flashed in his mind, and his lips trembled slightly. This fact of the Lu family is too evil. Looking at Biya, I want to say there is Who can restore the severely damaged Lu family to such a degree overnight, I am afraid that there is only this man in front of him! If it was really done by the emperor, then the Lu family’s raid on the Lu family’s base camp would definitely not be an emergency. According to the emperor’s layout, the Lu family’s chess piece would definitely not be simply placed. The emperor wanted do what? Support the Lu family's independence? Or is there a bigger game of chess?

"Where is the Yading Army?" The fat man tapped his fingers on the table lightly, his eyes flashed.

"I have arrived in Lichuan, less than two hundred miles from Huizhou." Li Yuehua's face changed. She vaguely felt something from the emperor's tone. It was the subtle feeling of the hunter waiting for the prey to step into the trap.

"Come, bring the map." Fatty shouted to the guard outside the door. Soon, a guard brought the map in and spread it out on the emperor’s desk. Fatty's sharp eyes quickly found Lichuan. Location

Li Yuehua, a native of China, explained next to him, "As the largest lake-dense area in the southern province of Central Asia, Lichuan’s terrain can be described as vertical and horizontal, with beautiful scenery, and the largest water transport terminal in the south. It is a prosperous place, and because of this, many local families are concentrated in Lichuan. In the history of China and Bahia, the Lichuan clan has always been a fairly stable local power, whether it is in the military or the court. The influence of Lichuan was only this time under the brutal sweep of the Aden people, the Lichuan clan had suffered heavy losses, and the Zhongbia court was also putting pressure on the Lichuan clan at this moment. There are already three Lichuan clan patriarchs serving in the court at the New Beijing meeting. After the protest, Yu Fenglong immediately ordered the three to be detained in prison."

Fatty's gaze is retracted from the map. Lichuan is only in the south of the middle of the map. Two huge rivers traverse the middle. The countless tributaries that spread from these two rivers are densely covered like a spider web. All around, the area here must be a swamp wetland. After passing through Lichuan, to Huizhou a hundred miles ahead, it is a plain of Pingchuan. It seems that the people of Aden are not fools, knowing that once they pass the topography of Lichuan, they will enter the great plains. The plain is the prey that the 80,000 imperial cavalry can kill at any time. In order to urge the Aden army to advance north, the Zhongbian court did not hesitate to sell this Lichuan clan.

" Mobilize the troops on Dijing West Road into Huizhou. If I guess it is correct, the Yading Army will take action in these few days. "The fat man stood up straight, his eyes flickered and said to Li Yuehua" The Yachaotang detained the minister of Lichuan’s clique to jail. This is to make it clear that no matter what the Aden people do in Lichuan, the Zhongbia court will not care. Speaking of it, I have a little admiration for the commander who succeeded the Aden army. At a glance, I can see the delicate position of the Lichuan barrier and how powerful the imperial cavalry is. Facing the marsh wetland that spreads for dozens of miles, it is unlikely that the Aden Army will actively attack. Even if they want to fight, they have to wait for the Aden Army to pass Lichuan. Going into the Great Plains is the case. Although it is speculated that the northward advance of the Aden army will eventually become a scam, in the face of the approaching 200,000 Aden army, it is always impossible to rely on guesswork to deal with things like wars, only at the end. Only then will I know if I guessed it right

"Yes!" Li Yuehua's face was stunned, and he immediately realized that the Lu family incident was really what his Majesty did. For the head-shrinking tortoise of Zhongbia Chaotang, your majesty's move was really effective. ?　WWW.suimeng.lā The Lu family’s rebellion is like slapped the Zhongbian court in front of all the Zhongbian families. If the Zhongbian court can’t take practical action, it’s not just The prestige of the court that was finally established is lost. Even families from all over the world will no longer obey the orders of the Central Court, and the tax losses of the southern provinces have forced the entire Central and Bianya court to have to fight. It’s just that once these 100,000 Chinese and Biyarian troops leave the court and the new capital, what is placed in front of the people of Aden is a **** body with no defense at all. The people of Aden will inevitably move, and just as the emperor said, In the past few days!

In the afternoon, the fat man took his guards to Huizhou. The sun in August was no longer hot. The wind blowing on his face and the golden woodland on the side of the road all heralded the future of the cold winter. Seen along the way, broken walls The ruined villages are everywhere, and the traces left by the refugees’ impact can still be seen. It has grown into the wormwood as high as human legs, the color of the bones is clearly visible, and a large area of ​​barrenness

No one can see it. In a hundred miles, the total population is not even 50,000. Before the refugees hit this place, it was one of the most densely populated areas in the south, with large rivers sprinkled out of irrigation water. The ten thousand acres of fertile land is located between the north-south traffic arteries. Today there is only this withered yellow weeds covering almost everything, just like the depressed southern region of Central and Biyah. No matter how good the geographical foundation is, after several consecutive catastrophic impacts, It is already full of distress, and the people have no livelihood, and the Zhongbian court is still taking it as a merit to drive the refugees out of the southern mountains, but no one thinks about it. The millions of refugees who have been driven to the southern mountains, In the case of lack of food and clothing, in the coming winter, I don’t know how many people will starve to death, how many old and weak can’t bear it, and how many of the so-called good fields that have just been opened can be kept, the South The Song people in the mountainous region have suppressed the rebellion in various parts of Shannan, and will soon take out their hands to deal with these refugees going south!

The order letter sent from Dijing West Road made the imperial governor Wu Mu who was in the big camp look tight. The 200,000 Yading army marched from Luzhou and came towards Huizhou step by step, saying that it was not nervous. Fake, the Aden Army can be regarded as a strong force in Obalo. Although it is not believed that the 80,000 imperial cavalry will not win the 200,000 Aden Army, but in the face of the 200,000 Aden Army, the 80,000 Eastern Cavalry will be able to have after the war. How many people returned to the northern wilderness of the empire, Wu Mu’s heart is also unfounded. The Dongting clan is not easy to recover now. This time the Dongting has already come out of the nest. Eighty thousand Dongting men are the roots of the entire Dongting department. The first battle was a terrible victory, and Dongting wanted to recover again, but he didn't know when it was!

"Your Majesty has left Dijing West Road and should arrive in Huizhou tomorrow. Your Majesty said that the army only needs to stand on standby!" The Imperial Guard who came to send the order said in a report

Fortunately! Please go down and rest." Wu Mu was relieved and nodded to the Imperial Guard,

"Assemble the officers, the emperor arrives at the Huizhou military camp in the afternoon"

Send the guards away, Wu Mu walked to the gate, and ordered the messenger outside, since the emperor came personally, then he was quite sure of the battle. Other than that, it was just news of the emperor’s arrival in Huizhou. , I’m afraid it’s enough to shake the courage of the most brave fighters. The emperor’s powerful prestige can not only boost the morale of his side, but also make the people of Aden feel very stressed. The demise of the two empires, 700,000 southern coalition forces. The destruction of, every time when everyone thinks that they can challenge the emperor, it often brings them even more tragic shock. For the 80,000 Dongting people, His Majesty Falcon is like an existence of eternal heaven, there is a falcon. Your Majesty's presence is the guarantee of victory! The war is imminent, the military will be the first!

In the north of Lichuan, the Aden army is gathering rapidly, and the Servant Army of China and Biyah that had been sent out to find a family has also been collected one by one. The outposts to Huizhou to the north have become denser, like a giant net spreading out. , The news about the imperial emperor’s arrival in Huizhou also reached the Aden army camp at this moment. Marshal Hebiah, the chief of the Aden army, held a meeting for the northward advancement overnight. When the sky was light, the order for the northward advancement was issued

"The whole army marched in, aiming at Huizhou!" Hebia pulled out his saber and pointed to Huizhou to the north. The 200,000 Yading troops were distributed in a shape of a character, with 60,000 on each side, 80,000 in the Chinese army, and the army flag. Under the Aden army, the infantry of the brigade battalion lined up, the metal shields and armors shone brightly in the sun, and the 200,000 troops opened the ranks, which is more than ten miles away.

The one who was pushed to the forefront was the servants of Central Biyah with a total of forty to fifty thousand people. These servants were puzzled as to why the Aden Army split into three routes, but it was not their turn to question. Yes, once the Aden people's military order is issued, there is no room for them to inquire. Once the army acts, it will bring a huge inertia and wrap everyone in it. In addition to the 10,000 Aden regular troops following the army, those who walk slowly will be treated as deserters. These servants are also the first troops to encounter the imperial cavalry. On the plains, I saw imperial cavalry pressing down. The servants have not yet The battle was in chaos. Under the imperial cavalry's knives and horses, the servants of Central and Bahia fled across the mountains and plains, and the sound of crying in the four fields shook the sky. The commanders of the Servant Army of Central and Bahia who retreated sporadically, desperately trying to get closer to the 10,000 Aden army behind them, were ruthlessly rejected by the Aden army.

The captains of the servant squadron were ruthlessly ordered to move forward several times when they approached. One of the servants in China and Bahia was in a hurry. Regardless of the order of the Aden Army, he wanted to take his troops to the back of the Adenites. I saw that Officer Yading dragged the long knife on the side of his neck without any effort to chop. Suddenly, a deep hole was brought out on the side of the squadron's long neck~IndoMTL.com~ blood spurted out suddenly. That Shu Shuai couldn't speak anymore, pressing on the wound on the side of his neck, he was dumbfounded for more than ten seconds, and his whole body fell straight to the ground,

"Those who retreat without authorization will be killed without mercy!"

The Aden officer turned around fiercely, and the Aden army directly behind him swarmed up, slashing and stabbing the Zhongbia servants, blood spattering everywhere, crying, and hundreds of people in a blink of an eye. In the first place, the surrounding servants of Central and Bahia looked at everything in front of them dumbfounded. Many people subconsciously don’t pass by. It’s really too miserable. The people of Aden are going to use us as cannon fodder and consume us. The number of imperial cavalry! But the butcher knife of the Aden people has smashed their courage. Tens of thousands of servants were driven forward again, and the Aden army was staring at everything in the back. Anyone who dared to leave the team without permission would be killed. The queue of people marched forward in silence with pale faces. Although the whole brigade was still maintaining order, its progress was getting slower and slower. The queue is getting denser and denser. The ones in the middle can't see everything around, but in the queue are listening to the tsunami-like crying and shouting all around.

"Attention, the imperial cavalry is coming up"

In front of them, a black line slowly emerged from the horizon, and heavy clusters of horseshoes stepped into the shallow water spreading forward like a mountain, and rolled up a burst of white spray
