Chapter 582 Good news, prepare in advance

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The situation in the Northeast is very bad.

    The situation in the northwest is also very bad, but in terms of the overall trend, it is also not panic-inducing.

    The Xiqiang fought for a month and suffered more than 50,000 casualties, but they still failed to break through the Yinchuan defense line, let alone Jiayuguan.

    However, they sent a partial division of 50,000 people, and together with the 150,000 Uighur troops, they conquered Guide City and Tongde City in the west. After some killing and looting, they broke through the Zeku and Xiahe defense lines and reached the  Take Tianshui, the last important town in the east of Gansu, and Longnan, the largest town adjacent to Sichuan and Shaanxi in the southeast.

    But Longtengwei General Tang Hui did not sit in Baoji during the critical moment, but took a boat all the way westward to Tianshui.

    Relying on the powerful and solid Tianshui City, Tang Hui and one hundred thousand Uighur troops launched a fierce fight.

    Although Tang Hui only had 40,000 imperial guards and only 30,000 garrison troops in Tianshui City, such men were more than enough to fight against the 100,000 Uighur army.

    The ratio of the offensive and defensive sides did not reach 2:1 or even 3:1. It would be very difficult to defeat a fortified city.

    So why is it said to be tragic?

    Because the Uighur army followed with the arrival of a hundred thousand troops recruited from small tribes.

    They were ordered to be in the first wave of attack sequence, and then every time they waited until they were almost done, the elite Uighurs would launch a fierce attack.

    In this way, Tang Hui actually faced an army of 200,000. Even the 100,000 in front were not something to be afraid of, but they consumed a lot of energy from the defenders. When it was the Uighur army's turn to attack, they faced the weak defenders.  Army.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If Tang Hui were not tenacious and steadfast, and had a steady stream of support from the inland navy, Tianshui City might not have been preserved long ago.

    Tianshui is an important node of the Yellow River.

    Once the Uighurs occupy this place, they can cut off half of the connection between Gansu and Shaanxi.

    In other words, the Uighurs can rely on this place to hold on, cut off Dakang's reinforcements, gradually cooperate with the Xiqiang, and eat up the defense lines of Lanzhou, Yinchuan, and Jiayuguan one by one.

    After all, a fortified city without any reinforcements, even a fortified city like Jiayuguan, cannot be defended for a long time.

    The Uighurs dispatched a total of 150,000 troops, but only 100,000 showed up at Tianshui City.

    The remaining 50,000 people, together with the 50,000 Xiqiang army, went south to attack Longnan.

    Longnan¡¯s geographical location is equally important.

    By seizing this city, you can go straight to the Hanzhong Plain in Shaanxi Province to the east, and to the Sichuan Basin to the south.

    If they are allowed to enter Shaanxi, and in turn can go north to attack Baoji, another node of the Yellow River, and cut off the waterway support of the Dakang Army to Tianshui, then the fall of Tianshui is also just around the corner.

    Originally there were only 30,000 border troops here, and 10,000 were urgently transferred from Hanzhong.

    They don¡¯t have a single Forbidden Army unit. When they encounter the wolf-like Xiqiang and Uighur coalition forces, of course they will lose their armor and quickly fall.

    It should be said that this plan set up by the Xiqiang general Suezang Haochuan and personally led the army to execute it is very good.

    But they missed one thing.

    That means Nanzhao is too weak.

    Not only did they not successfully invade Guizhou and Yunnan in Dakang, but they were killed by Sichuan Governor Zhang Zizhe from the beginning, and later they were crazily sniped and hunted down by Su Xiaosong, the chief envoy of Guizhou.

    After such operations, in less than twenty days, most of Nanzhao's 200,000 troops were killed or wounded, and only less than 50,000 people escaped.

    With his hands free, Zhang Zizhe took a boat all the way north from the Minjiang River and led 50,000 Sichuan border troops to Longnan City as quickly as possible.

    Zhang Zizhe arrived at a very dangerous time. On the second night after 50,000 Sichuan frontier troops entered Longnan City, the Xiqiang and Uighur troops broke through the Hehe, Lintan, and Zhouqu defense lines, and then arrived ten miles outside Longnan City and set up camp.

    Neither party expected that the other would come so quickly.

    But Zhang Zizhe was also an old coin, and due to the asymmetry of the news, he kept Longna City silent.

    When the Xiqiang and Uighur troops launched the first round of attacks, he targeted the weakest link at the east gate and dispatched the entire army at once, catching the 20,000 Xiqiang and Uighur troops who were preparing to attack the city by surprise.

    In the end, only 7,000 of the 20,000 people escaped. All the siege equipment and tens of thousands of horses were captured by Zhang Zizhe and brought back to the city.

    What do you think.

    Is this beautiful?The commander has gone out to sea several times to look for opportunities to kill them, but he has never caught anyone.

    But if you don¡¯t catch them, they will madly loot the passing merchant ships. They killed more than a dozen merchant ships of different sizes and looted their goods, and finally burned the merchant ships.

    It¡¯s so outrageous and highlights the tension of today¡¯s situation.

    If there was no pressure from the Japanese who were about to invade the country with their army, the Dengzhou Navy and the Lianyungang Navy would definitely pursue them to the end, no matter where they escaped. The pirates would be the ones who couldn't bear it.

    But how can they dare to go far now?

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????: The Japanese fleets swarmed in. Didn¡¯t you give up the entire coastline of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea to the Japanese so that they could drive straight in?

    Even the navy that is slightly further away from these two locations dare not move, let alone the Zhoushan navy directly off the coast of Zhejiang - the East China Sea.

    Liu Renhuai gave them a death order. Even if they saw themselves dead in front of them, they were not allowed to abandon the defensive area. They were absolutely not allowed to allow any Japanese pirate ships to land near Zhoushan.

    ? ????????????????????????????????????????????? out????

    Songjiang Prefecture is to the northwest, Hangzhou Port is to the west, and Ningbo Port is to the southwest Any Japanese landing from any place will be a heavy blow to Jiangnan.

    Not only could they not move, but the three thousand Quanzhou navy who came to support could only guard Taizhou, Wenling and other places and did not dare to move.

    But the strange thing is that there is no movement near the Zhoushan waters. Everything seems calm. Even the surrounding merchant ships have not encountered Japanese or pirates.

    When Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing talked about this matter, their first reaction was that it was abnormal.

    "According to my opinion, the Japanese will probably land in Jiangsu or Shandong." Liu Mingqi said, "Once their fatigue tactics are successful, maybe the Japanese will suddenly arrive at the port in a surprise attack and wash ashore."

    "How can it be?"

    Liu Mingjing disagreed, "All ports have lighthouses. The Japanese must have arrived in numbers of 20,000 to 30,000 or even 50,000 to 50,000 to 60,000 people. How can such a large fleet cross the sea without concealment? As long as the shore is prepared and can stop them for a while,  Our army will rush over and block the Japanese! After all, we have a lot of military strength in Jiangsu and Shandong!"

    Liu Mingqi asked him, "If it's really that simple, why do you think these pirates are doing this useless work?"

    "Maybe it's to attract our attention?" Liu Mingjing guessed.

    "It would be nice if it was that simple." Liu Mingqi smiled, "Okay, this is not our businessbut now we should always be prepared to let Bagu and the others retreat!"

    "Um!"

    Liu Mingjing showed excitement.

    It is now the middle of May, the beginning of the hottest season of the year.

    It is also the most suitable season of the year for fighting.

    If the Japanese want to take action, they will definitely attack in the next month.

    ¡°Otherwise, in July and August, when uncontrolled typhoons appear, if they happen to hit the Japanese fleet, it will be too late to make them cry.

    Liu Mingqi asked him: "Are everything ready?"

    "Seven hundred thousand bottles of hell cocktails have been quietly buried in the designated place." Liu Mingjing said regretfully: "If Liu Renhuai hadn't cut him off midway, we could have saved hundreds of thousands more bottles!"

    Because the Hell Cocktail is made of gasoline, it is not suitable for carrying with the army in large quantities.

    Special operations itself is about not having any burden. If you carry dozens of hell cocktails with you, your flexibility will be greatly restricted.

    So Liu Mingqi thought of a good way.

    He hid the Hell Cocktail on the land of Jiangnan in advance, so that after he and others attacked the enemy, he could replenish it at any time when he retreated to rest.

    It is even possible to use this to dig holes for the enemy. When they think they have no ammunition, they suddenly dig out thousands of bottles of hell cocktail and throw them at the enemy. How refreshing would that be?

    Liu Mingjing praised this coup repeatedly.

    In order not to leak the news, they sent members of the Royal Rugby Team to do this, and they did not dare to let the guards of Prince De's Palace know.

    ¡°Otherwise, these guards might tell Zhang Qin and Niu Dabao.

    How can you keep a secret like that?

    Liu Mingqi shook his hand, "The hell cocktails are secondary. The most important thing is that we carry enough wooden handle grenades. When the time comes, let the kid the Japanese have a good taste, the love from Dakang's father!"

    "Hahaha!"

    Liu Mingjing laughed out loud when he heard this.

    ¡°Mingqi, this kid, has such a poisonous mouth!
