Chapter 304: Pingliang talks

As soon as Lin Hu walked towards the city wall, the city gate opened very quickly, and the spearmen at the city gate also put away their sharp blades.

This is a gift of peace, seeing that the people of Xiliang are so polite, Lin Hu is also much more relieved!

Inside the city gates, Margo dismounted with the generals. In any case, the fact that these southerners were able to fight back from the south to the north was enough for him to admire.

Lin Hu did not pretend to be a hero, and immediately dismounted to salute the generals.

"Yanhuang Empire, General Lin Hu of the Yanhuang Second Army, I have seen all the generals."

Yanhuang Empire ~ The thickness of the name of Yanhuang is so heavy that no one dares to use it in history.

"Welcome to the Han envoy, the leader of the Daming Xiliang Alliance, Ma Ge is fortunate to meet." Ma Ge's expression was faint, to be honest, he was not willing to talk to the Han army! However, the Lanzhou Ma family couldn't even take Lanzhou City alone, let alone subdue the various cities of Xiliang.

Ma Ge was not enthusiastic, so Lin Hu smiled in return.

Seeing this, Ma Tong immediately stepped forward and spoke: "Han envoy, please." ”

"There's General Law."

Everyone got on their horses this time, and Lin Hu only led ten cavalry to follow everyone to the city guard.

After arriving at the main hall, everyone sat down one by one, and there were eleven generals in Xiliang. These are the main generals of the Xiliang Coalition Army, and most of them are also the lords of various ethnic groups.

Everyone looked at Lin Hu, and they all wanted to know what conditions the Han army would give them.

Lin Hu immediately spoke: "Our Han army started at the end of Wei, and the emperor returned to Lingnan from Liaodong with one person and one horse: it has been four or five years since he ordered the Han people. So far, in the 02nd year of Yanhuang, the empire has recovered the world, and the east, west and north of Liao are about to be stabilized. ”

Ma Ge also nodded lightly, the rise of the Han army is really like a myth!

After a pause, Lin Hu then spoke: "My Yanhuang field army has a total of two or six hundred thousand, which belongs to the second-line army of the empire. But going north also killed millions of Qing soldiers, and now the 180,000 Han troops of our middle route army are advancing westward, and they will definitely swear to recover the northwest and destroy Turpan. ”

Lin Hu said firmly that even if the 180,000 Han troops died, they must complete these two tasks.

"This! Perdition of Turpan? Does General Lin know the national strength of Turpan? Turpan has been able to survive in the Moxi Grassland Thorn Alliance so far, and its strength cannot be underestimated, and now it is even more dominant in the Western Regions with the Jungger Department. Ma Tong didn't like Turpan either, but he thought that Xiliang was not their opponent.

Ma Ge's expression suddenly moved, if the Han army and Turpan were defeated, then his chance would really come! It's just that I don't know what the strength of these 180,000 Han troops is! Although they have a variety of armor and firearms, the most important thing on the battlefield is courage, the courage to not be afraid of death.

For Turpan, Lin Hu naturally understands.

"The former Turpan Khanate has now been replaced by the Yarkand Khanate, and of course they all belong to the Mongol Empire Houyi. The Yarkand Khanate and the Dzungar Khanate were both the two hegemons of the Western Regions, and today's Turpan is even more direct to Central Asia. Not to mention that there are more than 300,000 cavalry, and now they occupy the first line from Liangzhou Wei to Xining Wei in Xiliangzhou County. ”

Turpan was the final target of the Northwest Army, and even if they had 400,000 cavalry, they could only send 200,000 to the east at most.

Ma Ge nodded with a faint smile: "Since Commander Lin knows the strength of Turpan, why dare he say that he can defeat Turpan." ”

Seeing Ma Ge smiling secretly, Lin Hu also laughed. He didn't come to beg them this time, but to give them a chance to live.

"Generals should know: The Han army fought in the south and north for several years, destroying more than 3 million enemy troops and beheading millions of unsubordinated people. This military seat is not for the generals to ask for peace, but to give you a chance. Tomorrow the Han army will attack Pingliang, and you can give a clear answer by the early morning of the next day at the latest. ”

Lin Hu also stood up after speaking, strong is the truth. If they don't show the strength of the Han army, these people won't know what despair is.

"Hmph, then wait and see! Commander Lin, the leader of this alliance is also looking forward to meeting again. Margo sneered and wanted to break the city the day after tomorrow, it was just a joke.

Lin Hu nodded lightly: "I will definitely not disappoint General Ma!" I hope you will think deeply, even the northern Mongols dare not face the soldiers of the empire, the Han army is not the Ming Dynasty or the corrupt Confucianism, but it will not be soft. ”

"You'll have a date later." After the salute, Lin Hu also turned around and left.

Ma Tong frowned and immediately followed to see him off, and half of the generals also got up to follow.

"Don't worry, Commander Lin, the leader of the Ma League has an upright temperament. Our Xiliang departments have always befriended the Han people, and Xiliang has been dominated by the Central Plains since ancient times. We also regard ourselves as ministers! ”

"Please wait a little longer, the Han army is in a hurry, and the various departments also need time to discuss."

Seeing that the generals had a calm attitude, Lin Hu also smiled lightly and said: "Generals, don't worry, tomorrow the generals should not approach the city wall." I, the Yanhuang Empire, have never forced the ministries, and we will wait for your accurate reply the day after tomorrow. War or peace, the empire is chosen by each tribe. ”

Ma Tong smiled bitterly! What to say is not to force the ministries! Don't force others to die!

"Hey!"

After Lin Hu left the city gate, the generals were also in different moods! In fact, they have no intention of fighting the Han army! Most of them gathered their troops calmly, just to show their strength. In exchange for the special preferential treatment of the empire, at least it is necessary to return to the treatment before the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Hu knew what everyone meant, but it was simply impossible!

But if they resist too fiercely, the Han army will suffer heavy losses! What worries Lin Hu the most is that he will bother the lord again, once the empire's pro-army advances westward, I am afraid that the northwest will become a wasteland.

Chen Xiong also had an order: as soon as the casualties of the Han army reached one-third, they must defend themselves in place and wait for support.

Lin Hu didn't want to intervene if there were many people in the northwest, but if the emperor was allowed to advance westward, then it would be the defeat of their Northwest Army. It's the failure of his Lin Hu!

Lin Hu came back, but seeing that he was not in high spirits, Zhang Shou immediately laughed: "Haha, Deputy Commander Lin don't be angry, let's do this: let my Hanbei Army teach them a lesson tomorrow." ”

Luo Hu also immediately spoke: "Yes, Deputy Commander Lin has a good rest, and tomorrow the Fifth Army will break through Pingliang City." ”

Knowing that the two guys wanted to take the lead, Lin Hu naturally wouldn't agree.

"Don't bother! Tomorrow, the Second Army will destroy the Pingliang City Wall. ”

Knowing that it should be Lin Hu's negotiation that failed, Chen Nan also asked, "Commander Lin, what is the attitude of the Xiliang Coalition Army?" If there is really a sense of separatism and division, no one will be spared. ”

Lin Hu nodded and shook his head: "Commander, most of them still want to submit to the empire, but they want to sit on the ground and raise the price!" Keep their interests in check! ”

"Hehe, the empire is not a Ming dynasty! There are no privileges wherever the Empire goes, and no power can go against the will of the Empire. In that case, let's attack tomorrow! "Chen Nan dislikes these local forces the most, either fight to the death, or completely surrender. What privileges do you still want, and you still want to keep the rights you had before, it's simply delusional. In order to eliminate the privileges of the elites, Lingnan and Jiangnan do not know how many Han and tribal people died.

"Exactly! However, I promise to let them think about it for the future! It will be enough to break through the walls tomorrow. "Lin Hu doesn't want to lose his trust.

Chen Nan nodded: "This is just right, after all, there are many of them, and they can't rush forward." ”

Pingliang City is close to the river and the mountain, and there is only a two-kilometer city wall to the east. Therefore, the Han army can only attack in one direction, which is also the reason why Zhang Shouluo Hu wants to be a spearhead.

Seeing the ups and downs of the three army commanders, Chen Nan also said directly: "Tomorrow, the field artillery of the three armies will work together to make three gaps, and they will attack in three directions." ”

"Honorable Order." Zhang Shou was overjoyed, if he attacked all the way, his Hanbei army could only be the rear of the palace! There is no way, who is called the weakest strength of the Hanbei Army and the most recruits.
