275 Armageddon on
Xianglan was originally one of the founders of the "Red Leaf Society", and she led the army to encircle and suppress the "Red Leaf Society", and the ordinary subordinates of the "Red Leaf Society" basically did not have much resistance, and Xianglan did not kill all the people of the "Red Leaf Society", as long as they could take refuge in herself, she would let them go. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Of course, it belongs to Han Jiangxue's direct cronies, and Xianglan can only kill them all according to Empress Dowager Xiao's intentions, leaving no trouble.
In this way, Han Jiangxue's Demon Eagle in charge of the "Red Leaf Society" was killed in battle, and Yun Ying was injured and captured. So far, Empress Dowager Xiao has cleared Hanjiangxue's power in Liao. Now Empress Dowager Xiao only needs to concentrate the forces of the three kingdoms of Da Liao, Xiliang, and Chu to deal with the power of the Nanyue State owned by Han Jiangxue. Empress Dowager Xiao has a complete chance of winning. Empress Dowager Xiao also breathed a long sigh of relief, she felt that the biggest problem in her heart, Han Jiangxue, could finally be solved, and in the future, she would not only have the world, but also children and her husband's affection.
Han Jiangxue was running the Nanyue Kingdom, and Han Jiangxue didn't want to have a head-on conflict with the Empress Dowager Xiao, but now suddenly his cronies died and fled, and almost all the forces he operated in Xiliang, Daliao, Chu and other places were uprooted and cleared by the Empress Dowager Xiao.
At this time, Han Jiangxue of course understood that Empress Dowager Xiao was going to do it to herself, as for why Empress Dowager Xiao would do it to herself so quickly, Han Jiangxue basically knew that the matter of saving the lives of Xian Wuwu and Xian Wuchou was already the East Window Incident, so now Han Jiangxue must protect herself.
Nighthawk, Sky Eagle fled to Nanyue with a few remnants of his defeated army, Han Jiangxue sent Flying Eagle to meet them, and at the same time Han Jiangxue ordered Mu Rong to lead 30,000 Flying Eagle Army with one arrow to quietly reinforce Xianglian guarded Xiangcheng, now Xianglian is the only strength that Han Jiangxue can rely on in Chu State. If the state of Chu is completely occupied by the Empress Dowager Xiao again, it will indeed be difficult for Hanjiangxue to defend the Nanyue country at that time.
In order to completely solve the troubles of Han Jiangxue, Empress Dowager Xiao decided to personally lead a large army to conquer the Nanyue Kingdom controlled by Han Jiangxue. Yun'er saw that the queen mother's sister went to conquer Hanjiangxue with a big belly, and hurriedly dissuaded her, saying that she was willing to lead the army to conquer Hanjiangxue in person.
However, Empress Dowager Xiao considered that Yun'er had no experience in leading troops to fight, and was afraid that he would be assassinated inexplicably like her son Xiao Sui, so Empress Dowager Xiao did not agree with him to take the risk in person.
In the end, Empress Dowager Xiao decided to send Mei Shuang as the supreme commander of the Liao army, and Mei Shuang led the army to fight against Hanjiangxue. At this time, Mei Shuang's subordinates controlled more than 600,000 troops, specifically Mei Shuang personally led 100,000 Liao troops and 100,000 Xiliang troops; Zizhu has 80,000 Liao troops and 50,000 Chu troops, Jin Ju has 50,000 Liao troops and 50,000 Chu troops, Lin Haotian has 70,000 Lin family troops, and Mo Shaozhi has 50,000 Mo family troops; Finally, there is Xianglan leading the 50,000 Lan army, and Xianglan leading the 50,000 Lan army as a supervisory army, which is a mobile force.
Mei Shuang led the 600,000 army, and the specific battle plan was as follows: she sent Jin Ju to lead 50,000 Liao troops and 50,000 Chu troops plus 70,000 Lin family troops owned by Lin Haotian, about 170,000 soldiers and horses to besiege Xianglian, and Su Bailing and them stuck to the city. After all, at this time, Xianglian's troops can only be used about 100,000, so even if Jin Ju and Lin Haotian can't capture Xianglian, Su Bailing guards the city, but there should be no problem in holding back Xianglian's troops.
Meishuang himself led the remaining main force of 430,000 soldiers and horses to prepare for a decisive battle with Han Jiangxue. So how many troops does Han Jiangxue have now, originally Han Jiangxue had 80,000 flying eagle troops, but after the consumption of the war and later supplementation, it was expanded. Now the Flying Eagle Army of Hanjiangxue has reached 120,000 soldiers and horses.
After all, the Nanyue country controlled by Han Jiangxue is originally the richest country on the continent, because the Nanyue country is rich and has a large population, so it can raise a lot of troops. In addition to the 120,000 Flying Eagle Army, Han Jiangxue also has the remaining 200,000 troops of the original South Vietnamese Army after the reorganization of the original South Vietnamese Army.
However, these 200,000 original South Vietnamese troops cannot all be put into battle, because these troops still have to guard the cities of South Vietnam, so Han Jiangxue can only mobilize 100,000 old troops of the original South Yue State at most, and these troops are not strong in combat effectiveness, so Han Jiangxue can really rely on the combat force is the 120,000 Flying Eagle Army that she has personally cultivated.
However, Han Jiangxue had already sent Mu Rong to lead 30,000 Flying Eagle Army to quietly reinforce Xianglian, so now Han Jiangxue personally led 80,000 Flying Eagle Army plus 100,000 old troops of Nanyue to face the 430,000 army led by Mei Shuang. (Han Jiangxue left 10,000 Flying Eagle Army for Ling Er, and sent Yufeng and Magpie to assist him in guarding the capital of Nanyue).
In terms of troops, Meishuang has an absolute advantage, but Meishuang leads too many factions in these armies, and these factions consider too much because of their own interests, so it is very difficult for Meishuang to unify the command.
Especially Jin Ju and Zizhu, they originally wanted to attack Meishuang and Xianglan through the matter of Hanjiangxue, who knew that Empress Dowager Xiao still reused Meishuang and Xianglan, and even heard that Empress Dowager Xiao was going to canonize Meishuang as the queen. Therefore, Jin Ju and Zizhu felt that they were helping Meishuang defeat Han Jiangxue but making wedding clothes for others. In such a state of mind, the combat effect of Mei Shuang's subordinates was greatly reduced, and according to Han Jiangxue's view, Mei Shuang's leadership was a rabble, driven by common combat interests, and was doomed to failure.
Of course, Han Jiangxue also considered that Mei Shuang led the soldiers and horses to have an absolute advantage, and Han Jiangxue did not dare to fight hard. Hanjiang Xue is waiting for an opportunity, what opportunity? It is to help Mu Rong defeat Jin Ju and Lin Haotian's army with one arrow, and then Han Jiangxue can unite Xianglian to attack Meishuang's army before and after.
Han Jiangxue knew that fighting on the territory of the Chu State, most of the soldiers and civilians of the Chu State secretly supported Xianglian, so once the situation changed, these Chu troops who had originally defected to the Liao army were likely to suddenly defect. This could be a complete reversal.
Now although there are not many troops under Han Jiangxue, there are many famous generals: Nighthawk, Sky Eagle, Flying Eagle, as well as Du Muyi and Mu Zag and others, and Han Jiangxue's five major maids, in addition to the swift's ability is relatively weak, the other golden phoenix, jade phoenix, flying geese, and magpies all have good military talents.
The Jincheng of the Chu State was close to the border of the Nanyue State, so Mei Shuang led a large army to garrison near the Jincheng and waited for the decisive battle of the army of Han Jiangxue. After all, for Mei Shuang, she and Han Jiangxue had fought together, and knew that Han Jiangxue was very capable of military talent, so Mei Shuang did not dare to attack Nanyue, but set up a battle on the border of Nanyue, waiting for Han Jiangxue to lead the army to fight.
Originally, Empress Dowager Xiao and Han Jiangxue both wanted to try their best to avoid conflicts, but in the end, the war between the two women still did not avoid.
In this battle, Han Jiangxue sent Nighthawk and Sky Eagle to lead 30,000 Flying Eagle Army as the vanguard, Du Muyi led 10,000 Flying Eagle Army as the rearguard, and she personally led the remaining army as the main force in the middle, and slaughtered the Golden City of Chu State.
Whoever was sent to meet the enemy first, Meishuang first sent Zizhu to lead 80,000 Liao troops and 50,000 Chu troops to meet Han Jiangxue's 30,000 vanguard army. Meishuang thought of sending 130,000 to fight against 30,000 to win the first battle, which could boost morale, so the first battle was of great significance, and the first battle was sure to win.
