Chapter 305: Arrive in West County!
"Wow!"
Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the palace of the King of Chu.
After the crowd waiting outside Shulan Hall heard this cry, their hearts instantly fell.
"Qi Yu Guotai, Princess Yan gave birth to a little son, mother and son are safe!" A midwife looked at the Chu State Taixiang Xie in front of her and said with a bright smile.
"Look he's so small!" Xiang Kun's wives and a bunch of children looked at the infant child in Xiang Xie's arms and said with a smile.
"Hold your little brother!" Xiang Xie looked at Xiang Xiong in front of him and said with a smile.
Then I walked into the house and saw Cai Yan, who had been served, changed bedding and clean clothes, and was lying on the bed weakly.
"I've seen my mother!" Cai Yan looked at Xiang Xie in front of him and wanted to struggle to get up, but was helped by Xiang Xie to lie down.
"You! You don't need such manners! Lie down! ”
"Mother! Hasn't the king come back yet? Cai Yan looked at Xiang Xie in front of him and said with a weak smile.
"He! His army is now pacifying the Qiang in the northwest? This is his letter to me yesterday, you can read it!" Xiang Xie looked at the daughter-in-law in front of him and said with a smile on his face.
"Husband!" Stopping the familiar handwriting and the meticulous arrangement of himself, he couldn't help but say with a happy face.
In the camp of the Chu army in the northwest,
"Wow! Whew!"
"King Qiqi, the troops we participated in this battle this time include the 50,000 Xiliang Jian cavalry of our Chu army, the 100,000 elite infantry cavalry belonging to Lord Xiliang Ma Teng, and the 160,000 Yongzhou elite infantry cavalry of Lord Niu Fu, the elite of the 310,000 Chu army elites."
"And the six major Qiang tribes opposite us, namely Dangdangqiang, Dian Lingqiang, Zhongqiang, Xianlingqiang, Lejieqiang and Dangfangqiang, united dozens of small Qiangs, and also gathered 200,000 Qiang."
"Although their strength and training of their soldiers are far inferior to ours, their 200,000 Qiang people are cavalry and are very familiar with everything here;"
"On the other hand, although our Chu army has 300,000 troops, it only has 130,000 elite cavalry, although the elite level of soldiers is much higher than theirs, but the terrain is not as familiar as them."
"In addition, the defense of our grain and grass logistics supply lines is only handed over to the infantry with low mobility, so our logistics is a major shortcoming and flaw of our Chu army!" Li Ru on the side looked at Xiang Kun in front of him and said loudly.
"I understand that too! But you have to understand that we will never be like those Qiang people! ”
"Our troops must be able to fight the local residents without offending! In this way, we can ensure that our army can better and faster counterinsurgency. ”
"Next, our military supplies must be continuously transported to this place - the Great and Small Elm Valley of the West County!" Xiang Kun looked at the place on the map in front of him and said with a smile.
"But this is now a place occupied by Mi Tang Qiang, you must know that although Mi Tang Qiang's combat power is only second- or third-rate, it is notoriously pestering! Our elite cavalry army has gone out to battle, and we can encircle and annihilate this small part of Tang Qiang at a small cost!"
"If we're not ready, we'll have to fold our riders inside!" Pang De on the side looked at Xiang Kun in front of him and said loudly.
"This time, I didn't move a single elite horseman, I have already gathered 50,000 elite Chu army infantry soldiers! I'll leave tonight. Xiang Kun looked at Li Ru in front of him, and Pang De and other civil and military generals said loudly.
"Isn't this too risky, my lord! You must know that in this vast Gobi Desert, it is a battlefield where cavalry dominates, and it is a bit too risky to do it with inferior infantry in comparison! Li Ru on the side was a little incomprehensible after listening to it, and whispered advice on the side.
"Then you can rest assured! This time, let's show you the true strength of our infantry army! Guaranteed to blow your mind. Xiang Kun looked at Li Ru in front of him and said with a sworn face.
"Alright! But I'm going to send an elite cavalry to meet the king in the back, and I beg the king not to mind! Li Ru looked at Xiang Kun, who was no longer what it used to be, and said with a very cautious expression.
"Whatever you want!" Xiang Kun looked at this Li Ru in front of him and couldn't help but say with a smile on his face.
"Hurry, hurry! Hurry up, hurry up!" Xiang Kun took 50,000 well-equipped Chu army foot soldiers, and Xiang Kun ordered everyone to bring only ten days of food and fresh water, which has reached the level of individual soldiers, and has reached the sense of light travel, but what is even more strange is that in the middle of the team, about 1,000 people are carrying wooden boxes.
But this time, Xiang Kun's troops were equipped with a new type of weapon, and it was the timely appearance of this new type of weapon that gave Xiang Kun the ability to use infantry to crush the haunting Tang Qiang cavalry.
"I guess it's going to be the early hours of the next day! We're ready to go into battle after a short break! Xiang Kun looked at the infantrymen in front of him and said with a smile on his face.
"This time we went out and brought 100,000 explosive grenades. I estimate that the 30,000 grenades we marched this time would be enough for those misty Tang Qiang to drink a pot. Let's all speed up, let's cross the mountain in front of us, and rest! Xiang Kun looked at these winning magic weapons in front of him, and the more he thought about it, the more energetic he became, and he couldn't help but say loudly.
"Whoa!" All the soldiers looked at the invincible king in front of them, and they couldn't help but have extremely high morale when they saw that the invincible king in front of them was marching on foot like themselves.
"The king is really a little too presumptuous! You must know that if you want to fight in this vast desert, you have to rely on cavalry, and this infantry is only suitable for storming in mountains, hills and cities. ”
"How could this infantry beat those Qiang cavalry on the Gobi Desert with no concealment!" The general of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, who was nervously following behind, looked at the infantry marching rapidly in front of him, and couldn't help but say with a look of disapproval.
"The king must have arranged for him to do this. You must know when the king has failed! Let's do our job!" The other cavalry generals disagreed, but looked at their colleagues in front of them and still admonished.
"This is West County! Looks like this is a basin! And Xijun is just a village in a basin!"
"Their barracks seem to be in the middle of the low entrance to this basin! It seems that this is a godsend! Xiang Kun looked at the scene in front of him and said with some relief.
"Pass the order, everyone take turns to rest and eat, and when dawn comes, we will attack!" Xiang Kun said loudly to the two lieutenants in front of him.
"Whoa!"
