Chapter 622: Zombie Siege: Full Counterattack

When it is deployed, it will be invaded like fire.

In early September, the whole East Asian world opened up stormy waves!

With the comprehensive mobilization of the manufacturing industry, coupled with the increasing scale of manufacturing projects and the increasing proficiency of workers, the new warships are like dumplings, and they have participated in service in large quantities.

The Royal Navy of the Song Kingdom centered around the island of Zhouhu and invested a total of twenty-one frigates and two heavy battleships to stop the plans of the evil allies. But this is only the beginning, there are still larger batches of semi-finished warships in a tight rush.

In this large-scale naval battle in the Pacific Ocean, which is destined to go down in history, the Royal Navy of the Song State is the attacker. The purpose of the evil legion with Liao as the axis is to export the sea to Japan, so they must use Zhouhu Island as a transit base.

During this period, the two sides basically invested all the resources they could, and launched an offensive and defensive war around the waters of Zhouhu Island. The war was no less tragic than that on land, and to this day the Liao State relies on the slavery system, and integrates the resources of many countries, and these years by the Song industry traction, they also have their own production capacity of a certain scale.

As for the middle of September, the Liao State invested more than 200 large and small warships on the front line of Zhouhu Island, while continuously sending the Goryeo army into Honju Island, and resisting the sniping of Song warships with a defensive situation.

As a result, it was intertwined, and the four sides of Japan, Goryeo, Liao, and Song suffered very large losses in the waters along the island of Zhouhu.

By the beginning of October, the battle was at a fever pitch, six Song frigates had been sunk, nine had been severely damaged, and more than 1,000 officers and men of the Song Royal Navy had died. However, it also succeeded in sinking more than 70 warships and troop carriers of the Goryeo Combined Navy of the Liao State. It caused very heavy casualties in Liao and Goryeo.

However, even if the war situation was like this, it could not completely stop their export to Japan, and could only limit and suppress it.

The fighting on the island of Honshu was fierce. On the island of Honshu, although the era of Japan's war results was officially opened, it was in the early stage of the slight rise of samurai power, and all parties had their own intentions, and there were no effective resistances.

Therefore, although the Royal Navy of the Song Kingdom did its best to suppress the Japanese seas, resulting in the size of the Goryeo army landing on the Japanese archipelago of less than 30,000, the Goryeo army almost did not resist wherever it passed, and only the blood of the Japanese villagers flowed like a river.

Fujiwara Mitsuko has nothing more to do about this, she knows better than anyone that the superpower Great Song has done its best to prevent the disaster in Japan, but she really can't blame anyone if she can't do it.

On the other side, Fujiwara Yoritsu, the Japanese Guanbai (Taisei), who had always avoided direct contact with Wang Yan, sent four letters asking for help to the Song State in succession, crying blood and asking the Song army to land and fight in order to withstand the attack of the Goryeo.

Wang Yan replied: The landlord's family has no surplus grain. The landing operation is basically impossible within half a year, and now there is still a Song State ship to deliver material support to Honshu Island, and it has been the full efforts of our Royal Navy. Stick to it until after the beginning of spring next year.

The letter of the Great Demon King seems to be an understatement, but in fact, only the Song Kingdom knows the difficulties of the Great Song Dynasty during this period.

This is because the Battle of the Northeast has also officially begun during this period.

In this battle, Cangzhou in the east, Wutai Mountain in the west, Beiping and Hejian Fu in the center of the Liao State camp in the north, and the second most important town in the Song Dynasty in the south.

On this vast and endless position, without waiting for the Liao army to attack, after the Great Demon King understood the confidence of the Great Song Dynasty grain at that time, he officially sent a telegram to the Northeast Field Army Command and issued a strategic and advanced active offensive order, that is, the Northeast Battle!

On the side of the Liao army, the war was known as the Battle of the North and the South.

Before the Great Demon King issued the order for a general attack, he had calculated that the total deployment of the Liao State had exceeded 870,000 troops, distributed throughout the northeast occupied area.

After completing the most critical strategic buffer, the Great Song Dynasty successively invested a total of 20 semi-mechanized group armies on the northern front.

In addition to the remnants of about 150,000 veteran troops in the areas behind enemy lines that were scattered and organized in the early stage, not counting the local people's transport teams, but with the addition of the militia columns, the Song State deployed a total of 650,000 combat forces for the Northeast Campaign.

The issuance of Wang Yan's order for the general offensive of the Privy Mansion also announced a comprehensive change in the strategy of the Northern Song Dynasty, which would officially change from a guerrilla strategy to a large-scale positional warfare strategy with a frontal force.

As early as the beginning of September, the Great Demon King sent a telegram to the Northeast Field Army Command, requesting that the Liao State make complete final preparations and launch the Northeast Campaign when they were busy with the autumn harvest and grabbing grain and grass.

In accordance with the spirit of the cardinal government with the Great Demon King as the core, the whole Berlin, Ma Jinxi, Di Yong, Mu Guiying, and others jointly discussed and invested three field armies on September 5, gathering more than 70,000 troops to attack the important town of Zhendingfu.

This was the first time since the outbreak of this world war that the Song army fought a large-scale positional battle in a large-scale cluster, and the first time that it launched an active attack on the heavily defended circle of the Liao army.

At the first moment when the Battle of Zhending Mansion began, Zhuo Luolan felt that something was wrong and thought that he could not command this at will.

Because Zhuo Luolan thought that this was the Song army's "strategy of encircling Wei and saving Zhao", the Song State gathered 70,000 troops from two field corps, of which 50,000 fought in Zhendingfu, and the other more than 20,000 wandered around and seemed to be supporting, which was menacing. But in fact, Zhuo Luolan thought that it was impossible for them to conquer the Zhending Mansion in the short term.

Therefore, the real intention of the Song army was to blow the horn of the general offensive, but it wanted to lead the Liao army by the nose, intending to subvert the current deployment of the Liao army and form the soil for the liberation of the northern guerrilla army and the new army.

This caused many generals and tribal leaders of the Liao army to panic, and they were busy harvesting the grain and grass for the autumn harvest, and they never imagined that the Song army would take the initiative to attack, so they gave Xiao Hui a lot of pressure, limited to various reasons, Lao Xiao couldn't bear such pressure, because Zhending Mansion was the defense area of the Yelu Alian Corps.

Yelu Alian, the king of Qin, is the grandson of former Prime Minister Xiao Xiaomu, the son of the current Queen Mother, the brother of Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji, and also a relative of Xiao Hui. Limited to political pressure rather than military strategy, and for the sake of the army's stability, Xiao Hui ordered Xiao's Lu Corps in the south and the enemy Lie Corps deployed on the edge of the Hedong Theater to quickly reinforce Zhendingfu to relieve the siege.

Xiao's Lu Corps was the efficiency of the Shan army, but when they went north to relieve the siege, they encountered the interspersed reinforcements of the Song Army's Fourth Army, and were delayed in Fenglongshan and could not advance effectively.

This is very mysterious, no one knows why an army with a group army formation and not cavalry in the Song Military Region would dare to blatantly penetrate into the heavy defense area of the Liao State?

But in fact, this is the reality of the entire Hebei territory now, the Song army is interspersed everywhere, even if the Liao army gathers 800,000, there are loopholes everywhere in this depth spanning thousands of miles.

It's hard to tell who is surrounding whom!

Unfortunately, he was said by Zhuo Luolan. The reason why the Northeast Field Army of the Song Kingdom dared to intersperse like this was because it was really impossible to tell who was surrounding whom!

Xiao's Lu Corps was strong and superior, but it was unable to smash the New Fourth Army's reinforcement plan, and during this period, the enemy Lie Corps was busy grabbing property and grain and grass in Hedong. The two field armies of the Song State and the 600 fire dragons have begun to bombard Zhending Mansion indiscriminately, and the enemy martyrs have not yet completed the assembly of the order against Lao Xiao.

By the time the enemy army marched east to reinforce Zhendingfu, the actual Zhendingfu had also fallen. And because of Lao Xiao's "political" deployment, many positions were blank, so the countless Song army guerrillas that were first scattered in the northeast became interspersed, highlighting the heavy encirclement of the Liao State, and went to the Daimyo's Mansion to reorganize and join the division.

It is not difficult to imagine that those old fritter troops who have been guerrillas for a long time and have accumulated a lot of experience in warfare will become tiger and wolf troops once they accept new equipment and officially put it into positional warfare. Because they have successfully passed the stage of fear of death. The guerrilla armies that have survived to the present day are basically units with "full antibodies" and completely exempt from the Liao army.

The Liao State has not yet lost, but the fall of Zhending Mansion has become a watershed that affects the morale of the Liao army and boosts the morale of the Song army......

By the end of September, which was also the darkest stage of the Pacific Campaign, the official newspaper of the Great Song Dynasty issued an article to celebrate the victory of Zhending Mansion, which opened a new page for the northeast strategy of the Great Song Dynasty.

No one could have imagined that the Song army could take Zhending Mansion in the hinterland heavily defended by the Liao army, so that the country was jubilant and set off firecrackers everywhere.

For this reason, the Great Demon King issued a document criticizing the official newspaper for "exaggerating", don't whitewash yourself.

The Great Demon King pointed out: The Great Song Dynasty Iron Armor is still there, but it is also facing many problems, don't be arrogant. Up to now, there are still more than 800,000 main forces deployed in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Battle of Zhendingfu is only a part of the Northeast War.

At this point, the ministers of the court were once again like the bottom of the pot, and they didn't know when to celebrate. It is said that these guys are waiting for the war to end in order to confiscate the rights of the Great Demon King.

But the Great Demon King of Heaven and Earth Conscience is not talking nonsense. Even if it was the Great Song Dynasty, he took the initiative to attack in advance in an impossible time. With the buffer of these few months, it seems that the Song army is much more mature, but in fact, the war zone is still very difficult.

So far, in the Northeast Field Army, the Great Demon King has officially reached the peak of Godhead, no one has thought of taking the initiative to send troops, under the seemingly impossible situation, the difficulty of the Battle of Zhendingfu is not much, and it is successful?

The morale of the army comes not only from brainwashing, but also from performance. So now the morale of the Song army is just right.

The people didn't understand why the always cautious Great Demon King authorized the Battle of Zhendingfu as the starting point of the Northeast Battle?

In fact, the Great Demon King knew that they were busy harvesting grain and grass at this time, and although the Liao army was huge, once interspersed and deployed, no one could calculate who surrounded whom with such a large position, which would be much more complicated than Go.

Go pieces can be under the absolute command of the player, but not in armies. So the Great Demon King ate Xiao Hui in the Northeast Battle, and he would be like Jiang Guangtou during the Huaihai War in later generations, the more he commanded, the more he was out of the moth, yes, it would be better if he didn't command.

As soon as the blind command appeared, as in the Age of Empires competitive strategy, a large group of legions were led by the nose by the smoke squad. The original intention of launching the Battle of Zhendingfu, the Great Demon King did not intend to really take Zhendingfu, there was no requirement in this regard, but it was the "strategy of leading troops around" in the competitive game.

Sure enough, no matter what the factors are, Lao Xiao is in the middle of the plan. Commanding multiple corps to link, more than 170,000 troops surrounded the three field armies of the Song State were exhausted, which led to a greater hole in the defense area, and was interspersed and broken through by most of the old guerrilla troops in the theater.

The Great Demon King does not want to really set the mansion, but to "liberate" the hundreds of thousands of guerrilla troops in the war zone, as well as the militia columns. They are heroes, and their presence has bought time for the reorganization of the Great Demon King's new field army. Therefore, after the 20th Group Army of the New Army was put into deployment, their guerrilla mission was officially completed.

In fact, if he only led tens of thousands of soldiers to charge, the Great Demon King believed that Lao Xiao would fight very well, just like when he attacked Xingqing Mansion. But as the old hooligan Liu Bang himself said, his limit is to bring 100,000 soldiers, and any more will cut off the army.

And there is a kind of person who has as many troops as possible, and can command. The Great Demon King is, because what is needed is not command quality but political command. It is for this reason that Jiang Guangtou was fiercely forced during the Northern Expedition, but after the big family business broke out everywhere, he did not have the political ability to manage such a family business, of course, he would be defeated.

However, since these guys really took the Zhending Mansion, that's fine.

This is tantamount to inserting a nail in the military center of Liao, and at the same time will disrupt the military and logistical deployment of some Liao.

The Zhending Mansion is safe for the time being, and the Great Demon King has already made a conclusion on this point. The reason is that the great interspersion of the entire Northeast Territory has begun, and no one can figure out who is surrounding whom, including the Great Demon King himself.

In this case, after losing the first battle, he didn't dare to say it, but Lao Xiao must not dare to launch a large-level battle at will, and he still focused on consolidating logistics loopholes and opposing each other.

Then, according to the enemy's strategy of advancing and retreating, now is the right time. The Command of the Northeast Field Army, the whole of Berlin and Ma Jin, basically saw the unification, and jointly sent a telegram to the Great Demon King: It is necessary to launch small campaigns in Xianzhou, Wutaishan, Raoyang, Xinle and other regions for trial and error. intends to make the situation of the Northeast Battle more chaotic, and it is better to completely mess with porridge.

The Great Demon King's current thinking is not on specific matters, and he doesn't understand the whole purpose of these guys launching small battles in these areas, but on the whole, the Song army has a very big advantage over the Liao army in terms of the current command system, political soil, and automatic rate of war, so theoretically, the more muddy the waters, the more beneficial it is to the Song army.

So the Great Demon King called back to the Command: If you are not specifically on the battlefield, I will not command blindly. The plan for the battle of the Northeast will be formulated by you more situationally, remember one thing, it is not easy for me to pull the Great Song Dynasty to this point, I do not ask you to win the war quickly, but don't lose the family I prepared for you. This is the last family background of the Great Song Dynasty, even if it is delayed, it will drag me to death the devil of the Liao Kingdom!

At this point, it means that the Great Demon King has completely let go, and the authority of the Northeast Former Enemy Committee has been fully unlocked, so their morale is higher......
