Chapter One Thousand and Thirty-Six

Seeing that Hu Qi did not seem to attack again, Li Cunhai ordered the adjutant beside him to take command and count his own battle losses: "Calculate the casualties!"

"The enemy did not approach our city, and we certainly did not suffer many casualties. Lin Shaohua couldn't hide his pride in his words. In this confrontation, the strength of the two sides was obviously apart, and Lin Shaohua was proud to see his own side almost crushing the other party.

"Don't be careless!" Li Cunhai interrupted Lin Shaohua's smugness and reminded Lin Shaohua that he should still be vigilant.

The return to calm in front of him, in Li Cunhai's view, is not so real, on the contrary, he still has the scene of the yellow sand in his mind just now.

That's definitely not an illusion!

Li Cunhai couldn't be sure, he looked around, and it seemed that there were really not many casualties on his side. However, the tricks of the Fit Talent Hu people are flying all over the sky, and they don't look like they are useless, so in this, could it be that they have overlooked something wrong?

A few minutes later, the adjutant ran over with an anxious look on his face and said sadly: "Eighteen fighters were shot by enemy arrows and died on the spot. There were also fifty-eight fighters, who were wounded in varying degrees during the fighting. ”

When Li Cunhai and Lin Shaohua heard this, they were immediately taken aback! This result was really unexpected, and at first glance just now, they thought that the soldiers of their army really did not suffer any damage!

Li Cunhai was even more sure of his guess, Hu Ren's technique was really not pediatric.

Lin Shaohua also lost the smugness he had just now, realizing that the situation was obviously not as simple as he thought, and hurriedly said, "I'll go and take a look at the wounded." ”

"Okay, there you go. I arrange the follow-up fight. Li Cunhai nodded in response, and then he continued to turn around and look out of the city, holding a telescope and scanning the distance, as if hoping to see Hu Qi's traces.

There were many corpses of Hu people lying on the ground, but there were no living Hu Qi outside the city, as if they had disappeared all of a sudden, but Li Cunhai had clearly seen a large number of Hu Qi before, and it was impossible for them to disappear out of thin air, let alone be annihilated by Li Cunhai and them.

This situation does not make Li Cunhai feel at ease, but even more so that there is a hidden crisis about to break out.

Li Cunhai didn't dare to be careless.

"Send a telegram to the headquarters of Tai'an City immediately and ask for support!" Li Cunhai instructed his adjutant to send a telegram for help, he was worried that Hu Cai might just withdraw his troops for a while, and he was afraid that he would suddenly attack the city in the near future.

Jiangzhou, Tai'an City, Imperial Headquarters.

Leon convened a military meeting of his subordinate officers and handed the telegram sent by Li Cunhai's ministry to everyone to watch. Although the telegram was brief, it clearly reported the process of Hu Qi's sudden intrusion, and after reading it, everyone knew why Li Cunhai sent this telegram, and the need for reinforcements was obvious.

"Hu cavalry dares to offend my Jiangzhou, unforgivable! Please give me 5,000 elite soldiers, and I will lead the troops to destroy this Hu cavalry. ”

"General, Hu Qi has invaded my Jiangzhou, and the Xia State side is very suspicious. Xia Guoliangzhou will not have no reaction at all, we must beware of Xia Guoren's tricks. ”

"The Imperial Intelligence Department has sent a large number of people to investigate the intelligence in Liangzhou. If Xia Guo participates in it, we won't let them have a good time. ”

The officers expressed their opinions one after another, some should immediately send reinforcements, and some emphasized the potential enemy intentions behind them.

Leon listened to everyone's statements while looking at the strategic map, thinking in his mind that it was indeed urgent to strengthen the defense of Yangcheng in Jiangzhou. Because, Leon is also the most worried, and Hu Qi's intrusion also represents the actions of the Great Xia Kingdom behind the scenes. After all, from another point of view, it was not difficult for him to understand that the Great Xia Kingdom still had a strong intention to regain the lost territory. Although for a while, it was indeed difficult for Leon to say clearly what role Xia Guo played in it, but Leon could not help but guard against Xia Guo's army.

As a result, Leon immediately agreed to send troops to support Li Cunhai's troops. In any case, the northwest of Jiangzhou must not be lost, otherwise, the supply lines of the Xinghua Empire's troops on the front line of Jiangzhou Tai'an will be seriously affected.

Thankfully, the Empire's armies never let up, and Leon was confident that his men would be able to handle any situation.

The development of events seems to further confirm the worries of Li Cunhai and Leon. A few days later, another unexpected situation occurred in Jiangzhou, which seemed to mean that Jiangzhou was about to face a big challenge.

The military meeting in Lyon had just ended, and the headquarters of Tai'an City actually received a telegram from Yangcheng in Jiangzhou again.

The content of this telegram made Leon frown all the time: there is a mysterious person who sneaked into Yang City and bloodbathed the Imperial Administration!

Leon didn't have much to say, but he was actually shocked!

What a terrible situation this is! It was able to infiltrate the Imperial Administration Bureau of Yang City as if no one was knowing, as if entering no man's land, and slaughter in the administrative bureau, and no one could subdue it!

This means how high the strength of this infiltrator is!

The Imperial Intelligence Bureau quickly launched a covert investigation and judged the situation - this infiltrator was likely to be an eighth-level combat professional in the Xia Kingdom.

The implication of this conclusion is already obvious to the world - according to the two telegrams, Leon is even more certain that the intrusion of the Hu cavalry mentioned in Li Cunhai's telegram and the attack on the Imperial Administration Bureau of Yangcheng in front of him are definitely related to the Xia Kingdom!

In response to this clear military crisis, Lyon immediately ordered that the entire territory of Jiangzhou be under martial law, the city should be closed, and the military defense should be strengthened, and even the people of Jiangzhou should enter a state of wartime preparedness, store the necessary food, and be ready to deal with possible battles in the city at any time.

At the same time, Lyon sent an urgent telegram to the Imperial Cabinet and the Ministry of War to inform him of the situation and ask for guidance from the Reich at the strategic level.

Lyon's request is necessary.

All in all, the movements of the Great Xia Kingdom are indeed something that Leon needs to be vigilant about, maybe these are all tentative attacks of the Great Xia Kingdom, especially the infiltrator. Moreover, the destruction of Jiangzhou by this infiltrator is already obvious, if there are a few more such professionals in the Xia army, and Leon does not ask the empire for instructions and receive military support from the empire, Jiangzhou must be in danger!

In fact, Lyon's request also served as a reminder.

With the stability of the Xinghua Empire everywhere, Jiangzhou became the only unstable area of the Xinghua Empire, so when the Xinghua Empire considered military issues, it would inevitably put Jiangzhou as a priority, with the pacification of the Jiangzhou crisis as the first task. Even, the Xinghua Empire could take advantage of this to firm up a tone - continue to attack the Xia Kingdom, occupy more territory, and plunder more resources.
