Chapter 463: Xia Yuanji's Secret (Page 1/1)

After the end of the war in Zhouning County, Ling Xia, Gu Xiuyuan, and Xia Ning'er led their troops back to Ziyanjiang, Zhouning County is located in the extreme south of Xuzhou Xinjiang, and Ziyanjiang is located in the extreme north of the northern theater of operations, the two places are separated by tens of thousands of kilometers, if it is a straight march, although the journey is closer, but the area is very complicated, you have to pass through the area occupied by the Japanese invaders, Xia Yuanji's secession area, and the control area of the imperial emperor.

In order to avoid dealing with those three forces, Ling Xia made a comprehensive calculation and decided to return the same way, first through Xia Yuanwen's Western Theater, and then from the Western Theater back to his Ziyan Frontier, he carefully calculated, according to the speed of the 200-mile march per day, it would take more than 20 days to return to the Primitive Frontier from Xuzhoujiang, and almost more than 40 days to enter the Ziyan Frontier from the Primitive Frontier.

As long as the army always maintains the speed of rapid marching day and night, it will be able to return to Ziyan Territory in more than two months, fortunately, the people in power in these two territories are acquaintances of Ling Xia, so the grain, grass and materials along the way can be guaranteed, the southern theater is dominated by Nangong Xiongba, and the western theater is Longjiu Zhongneng is in charge, and the two have already issued a military order to let the government support the supply of supplies for Ling Xia's army along the way.

After Ling Xia led the troops to leave, Long Jiuzhong and Qiu Luobei also took over their respective corps and returned, before coming, Long Jiuzhong led a corps, and Qiu Luobei led three corps, a total of four corps. Among the four major corps, except for one corps led by Qiu Luobei to be responsible for intercepting water outside the city, the remaining three corps were all sent to the front line of the city wall in Zhouning County to participate in the battle.

During the Great War, Ling Xia led a corps, Gu Xiuyuan led a corps, and Long Jiuzhong himself led a corps, but after the fire was burned by Itagaki Junjiyi this time, except for Ling Xia's corps that survived due to the long distance and was late, the corps led by Long Jiuzhong and Gu Xiuyuan all suffered varying degrees of damage.

In addition to the 1.75 million soldiers of the Nangong Xiongba Corps who were burned to death by black oil, 1.14 million soldiers in the corps led by Gu Xiuyuan were burned to death by black oil, 1.68 million soldiers under the command of Long Jiuzhong were burned to death by black oil, and among the more than 4.6 million soldiers of the Battle Guards who were burned to death by black oil, he and his two lost a total of 2.82 million soldiers, all of whom were soldiers in the Western Theater.

Therefore, when Long Jiuzhong and Qiuluo Beiban returned to the Western Theater, they only brought back three and a half corps, counted the soldiers and horses, and said goodbye to Xu Zhoujiang's soldiers, Long Jiuzhong and the two led the troops to leave Xu Zhoujiang, and after sending away Ling Xia and Long Jiuzhong and others, Nangong Xiongba wrote a military report to the imperial court and the coalition headquarters, and returned the results of the battle in detail.

……

Fame! Although Xia Yuanxiao and Xia Yuantu both felt that the prestige frontier belonged to the border, and it was too close to the infinite ocean island country, it was not recommended to settle here, but Xia Yuanwei claimed to the outside world that "the prince of the prison country has the responsibility to guard the country," and insisted on personally guarding the first line of defense against the Japanese invaders.

Seeing him so insistent, Xia Yuanxiao and Xia Yuantu had to give up their advice, and Xia Yuanji's remarks once circulated, immediately triggered a tide of patriotic public opinion, at this time Xia Yuanjian used his prestige to gather a group of generals and Confucians who came to defect, these people heard Xia Yuanji's "The prince of the prison country is responsible for guarding the country" This remark, they have praised each other.

In the early morning of this day, a young monk came to the yamen of the Governor's Mansion of Fame Xinjiang, and saw the guard in front of the door, the monk took out a golden token, which was Xia Yuanji's gold medal arrow, after seeing the token, the guard immediately led the monk towards the mansion, the monk was arranged to drink tea in the guest room of the side hall, and the guard took the token to find Xia Yuanji.

After a few breaths, Xia Yuanjian hurriedly came to the side hall, and retreated his subordinates, Xia Yuanjian frowned and looked at the monk, at this moment the monk was also looking at Xia Yuanjian with a light smile, the two looked at each other for a while, Xia Yuanjian raised the gold medal arrow, and asked in a low tone: "Who are you?" What is the matter with coming here for me? ”

"The poor monk Tian Ying Zhixiu visited His Royal Highness the Prince of the Xia Dynasty, Marshal Yaqibu asked His Royal Highness the Prince to say goodbye, and Princess Sakurako of Zhongyuan asked the poor monk to greet His Royal Highness." It turned out that this monk was none other than Tian Ying Zhixiu, the first strategist of the Yaqi family, and after introducing his identity, Tian Ying Zhixiu said to Xia Yuanyu with a smile: "Princess Sakurako helped His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come up with a plan to regain the throne of the emperor......"

Tian Ying Zhixiu put his hand to his ear and whispered to Xia Yuanyu about the purpose of his trip, and he didn't know what he said? After listening to Tian Ying Zhixiu's words, Xia Yuanji's face fell into contemplation uncertainly, and he seemed to be a little undecided, Tian Ying Zhixiu seemed to have guessed that Xia Yuanyu would be like this in advance, so he whispered a Buddha name, and then added unhurriedly:

"Before the little monk came here, Princess Sakurako had guessed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have difficulties, so he asked the little monk to bring a word, His Royal Highness the Prince is now unparalleled in prestige and reputation, so Princess Sakurako hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will think about it and think about who gave all this? If it weren't for Princess Sakurako's pretended failure, if Marshal Yagibu hadn't deliberately released water, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have won a series of victories? We gave up the Gangyue Frontier and the Fame Frontier, and even the command headquarters let you lead the troops to destroy it.

All of this is for the sake of fulfilling His Royal Highness the Prince, in order to establish your prestige and reputation in the Xia Dynasty, now you have strong soldiers and talents, and the whole country is proud of you, but don't forget, you are actually just a puppet supported by Princess Sakurako, when you were captured by the princess, you wrote a book of surrender with your own blood, if the princess will make the book public......"

"Shut up, don't say anything." Before Tianying Zhixiu's words were finished, Xia Yuanyu broke out in a cold sweat, he stopped Tianying Zhixiu angrily, looking at Tianying Zhixiu's smiling appearance, he nodded unwillingly: "Don't say it, I know what to do, you go back and tell Zhongyuan Sakurako, as long as she helps me ascend to the throne of the Xia Dynasty, I will not forget my original promise." ”

……

Not long after Tianying Zhixiu left from Xia Yuanyu, Xia Yuanyu called Xia Yuantu and Xia Yuanxiao, looking at his two brothers, Xia Yuanyu told the two that he wanted to unite with Xia Yuanyou's court and "row the river and rule" with the court, and jointly take charge of the Xia Dynasty.

If an agreement could be reached with the imperial court, he would advocate that the two sides join forces to attack Xia Yuanwen's Western Theater, Ling Xia's six territories, Zhenguogong's Wulan Territory, and those independent territories, until all forces were pacified and the one hundred and eight territories of the Xia Dynasty were brought back under control.

Hearing his words, Xia Yuantu and Xia Yuanxiao were all stunned, stunned for a moment, Xia Yuanxiao frowned and said, "Big brother, are you going to start a civil war?" ”
