Looking at the group of bandits who withdrew their troops back to the mountain, Yi Haojie breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the other party would fight with him, when the other party collected his troops, he pretended to pursue for a while, and seeing that he was really going to catch up, he was so frightened that he hurriedly Mingjin withdrew his troops, if it really started, it would be troublesome.

"My lord, it's not a way to go on like this." After collecting the troops and returning to the camp, Ling Xia found Yi Haojie and said to him with a sad face: "There is a very powerful figure over there in Juyitang, and the other party's military united front ability is extremely strong.

These ideas I came up with can temporarily bluff the other party, but with that person's wisdom, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will be revealed, and the next confrontation, I'm afraid it will not be easy to fool, we have to think of getting foreign aid, otherwise, we will have to finish the game in two days. ”

"Get foreign aid?" Yi Haojie shook his head: "Do you think foreign aid is so easy to get, let me tell you the truth, although the ten legions that came to Xiaofeng Frontier to suppress bandits this time were transferred by the Ministry of War, but when the commander of the corps was selected, the people from the Ministry of Officials were also involved."

The ten corps commanders assigned this time are from several forces, and except for a few pro-soldiers under his command, the others are all living people, take our division commander as an example, he was originally the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, but he was transferred to the territory of the civilian group by the military department Shangshu.

Another example is my uncle Yi Zhinan, he is a person who is still the secretary of the military department, but he was sent to the "loamy territory" by the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, which is the border line, and our army commander, he belongs to the Nangong family, and he is the governor of the Praetorian Guard, and now he has also come here.

The other legions are like this, and they were transferred here in a daze, I really don't know what the above thinks? actually scattered all the generals of various forces, and everyone has no friendship at all, who will be your reinforcements? ”

"Generalissimo? The book of the military department? Hearing Yi Haojie's words, Ling Xia was stunned: "Everyone is a soldier, and they joined the army to serve the motherland, so how can they divide anyone?" Whose territory is it? ”

"These are all secrets, and with your current level, you naturally won't be able to access this information." Smirked at Ling Xia, Yi Haojie told him: "For the sake of your respect and dedication to me during this time, I will tell you about the division of military forces."

Our Xia Dynasty has an active and wide territory, and to protect such a large territory, the military strength naturally cannot be weak, do you know how much military strength our Great Xia Dynasty has? It scares you to death when you say it, there are 170 million people, and it's almost close to the total number of people in a territory.

In this way, there are still many territories where the military establishment is incomplete, and even some of the territories where Wenchen is the lord of the territory do not have war guards, if the army establishment of all the territories is organized according to the imperial court establishment, the military strength will reach a terrifying 300 million.

You also know that we have a total of one hundred and eight frontiers in Great Xia, who are the lords of these one hundred and eight territories? In fact, they come from three forces, the royal family, the Wenchen group, and the military generals.

At present, the royal family has the greatest power, they occupy 55 seats among the 108 lords, followed by the civilian group, which occupies 31 seats, and the military generals are the weakest, only 22 seats.

Of course, everyone works for the imperial court, and they all obey the orders of the royal family, and it is impossible to say who has the most power and whose power is small, but the civil official group headed by the Taifu, Taishi, and Taibao is looking for our fault all day long, and shouting for disarmament at every turn.

Worried that the saint would be bewitched by those civil officials, the military department Shangshu, the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, and the governor of the Praetorian Guard joined forces to resist the civilian group.

The generals led the troops to fight hard, but they couldn't fight those civil ministers with their hearts, and after fighting for a few years, they were actually broken by those civil ministers, and the three major leaders of the military generals were caught by the prime minister's plan to leave home on the spot, and almost got into internal strife.

At this time, Zhenguo Gong and his old man came forward, Zhenguo Gong Yingtian is the first military general on the "famous generals list" of the imperial court, when the first product of the country, he suppressed the three leaders, and then led the three into the palace to find the prime minister to settle accounts.

At that time, this matter can be described as a vigorous scene, the civil official group accused the Zhenguo Gong of trying to force the palace to seize power, and the military generals accused the civilian official group of trying to control the imperial court.

After that incident, the three major leaders released their previous suspicions, and each was responsible for their own territory, and among the twenty-two positions of the frontier lords controlled by the military generals, except for the "Wulan Frontier" of Zhenguo Gong, the remaining three people each controlled the positions of seven frontier lords,"

"Oh, I see, although the generals are all soldiers, they are also labeled." Nodding thoughtfully, Ling Xia inquired curiously, "My lord, what is the "Famous Generals List" you just said?" ”

"Oh, the list of famous generals, it is a list that measures the ability of all generals, in addition to the generals of Great Xia, the generals of the Million Mountain Alliance and the Infinite Ocean Island are also within the statistical scope of the list of famous generals.

The list of famous generals is released by the Million Mountain Range, updated every five years, and only the military ability of generals above the division commander level is counted, and a ranking will be made at that time, and Zhenguo Gong Yingtian has been the first place in the list for thirty consecutive years. ”

After saying this, Yi Haojie shook his head: "I came to you to discuss the plan to suppress the bandits, how did you get to it, there are no reinforcements, you can only rely on yourself, and the bandits in Juyitang are ready to move, so you must help me come up with a foolproof plan." ”

"My lord, what are the Iron Divisions and Warhammer Divisions doing?" Retracting his thoughts, Ling Xia looked at Yi Haojie with a puzzled expression, and asked with some puzzlement: "Our division has come here to encircle and suppress White Tiger Mountain, what are those two divisions busy with?" ”

"I understand what you mean, you want them to come and support us, but they can't come." With a sigh, Yi Haojie told Ling Xia: "At the beginning, the commander of the legion received a tip-off that the three most powerful gangsters in Baishi Province intended to turn the pieces into a whole.

Those three forces are White Tiger Mountain, the East Lake Gang, and the Bloody Hand Sect, and they are worried that the three forces will merge into one, so the corps commander ordered the three divisions to separate the bandits, we are responsible for the White Tiger Mountain, the Steel Division is responsible for exterminating the East Lake Gang, and the War Hammer Division is responsible for the Bloody Hand Sect.

As long as these three forces are eliminated, there will be no more bandit gangs in Baishi Province, and the rest are all shrimp soldiers and crab generals, not to mention the battle guards, and even the local yamen's fast catchers can exterminate them.

Although a thorough battle plan was drawn up before the operation, it was only after the actual suppression of the bandits that the various divisions and regiments found that they had encountered hard stubble, and although they had achieved considerable results in suppressing the bandits, they also paid a very heavy price.

Although the Tiger Division was reduced by nearly half, its situation was the best of the three, and the Iron Division and the Warhammer Division were both about to be crippled, so it was impossible to expect them to send troops to support. ”

Originally, Ling Xia was still counting on being able to bring in the Iron Division and the War Hammer Division to support this side, but now that he heard Yi Haojie say this, he knew that the two divisions could not be counted on, and thinking of the posture of White Tiger Mountain, Ling Xia suddenly fell into hard thought.

……

"What? Dispatch all your forces to engage the Guards? In the Juyi Hall, Yue Qifeng looked at Mr. Dongfang in front of him with a shocked expression: "Didn't Mr. say before that it is not appropriate for us to fight hard with the Battle Guards?" Why have you changed your mind now? ”

"Alas, in fact, we were all deceived by the other party's generals, they don't have many cavalry at all, at most more than a thousand cavalry, and there are no more." After speaking, Mr. Dongfang showed a trace of chagrin on his face: "Damn, I was actually deceived by the other party twice in a row." ”

"More than a thousand cavalry? That's impossible? Before, we obviously saw nearly 10,000 cavalry dispatched by the battle guards, how could it suddenly become more than 1,000 cavalry in just a few days? Yue Qifeng was a little dazed and confused.

"Those are all fake, and they are deliberately created by the opposing generals." Speaking of this, Mr. Dongfang paused, and then continued: "I was a little suspicious at the beginning, if they really have so many cavalry, why didn't they ambush in the woods?

If those cavalry and infantry were ambushed in the woods at that time, we would definitely be defeated by the other side, but those battle guards did not do this, but ambushed the cavalry in the camp more than ten miles away, and missed this great opportunity to suppress bandits.

If the other party's commander is a straw bag, it would be easy to explain, but through these few encounters, the general of the battle guard is obviously a resourceful person, this kind of person will never miss that kind of opportunity, since the other party has not arranged cavalry, it means that they have not. ”

"But what if the other side brings in reinforcements?" Yue Qifeng's expression was a little scrupled: "I heard that they still have two divisions and regiments that are also suppressing bandits, if they transfer the other two divisions back to support, then we will be equivalent to hitting a stone with an egg."

In addition, there are ten reorganized legions sent by the imperial court to Xiaofeng Frontier this time, I have inquired, except for our side that has started to suppress bandits, the legions of the other nine provinces have not moved, if they inter-provincial assistance, Juyitang will be finished. ”

"They can't find any reinforcements, I have sent someone to check the situation of the other two divisions, the Steel Division is busy clearing the Donghu Gang, and the goal of the Warhammer Division is the Bloody Hand Sect, at present, both of them have lost and lost, and they are unable to support this side at all.

As for the inter-provincial assistance of other legions, it is even more impossible, not to mention that the distance between the inter-provincial provinces is very far, just by looking at the steps of suppressing bandits between them, we know that those legions are not monolithic, and it is not possible that there is no friendship between them at all.

If they are united, they only need to take advantage of the advantages and concentrate the strength of the ten legions to clear them one by one, and they can easily exterminate all the bandits in the ten provinces in the Howling Wind Territory, but they are fighting on their own, and they have no intention of joining forces at all, so it can be seen that they will not come across the provinces to support. When analyzing this truth, Mr. Dongfang's face was very confident.
