Chapter 484: The First Battle of Persia—17
Suning never expected that this carefully planned sneak attack plan had already been revealed, although Emperor Saiweilu also emphasized the objective reason in his heart, that is, the two sides had been at war for many years, and there had been trade for many years, so that it was impossible to be ignorant of the other party's movements.
But he is still very annoyed by the other party's wording, if there is such an objective situation reappearing, then when this plan was formulated, the other party should have said it in advance, instead of using these words as an excuse at this time, it is obvious that the Western Qing Empire at that time must have thought that they could achieve a great victory over the Rest Empire in this war, not to mention the Liangzhou system with Suning, contained on the battlefield on the Eastern Front, there would be no more war on the Eastern Front, judging from the current weakness of the Rest Empire, They were also completely militarily superior, so it was very likely that their idea at that time was to swallow up the entire valley of the two rivers, so that they would gain a large area of fertile plains, and under the stimulus of such a reward, any so-called sanity and logic could be thrown out of the clouds, let alone allies who cooperated for the first time.
Considering these factors, Suning completely lost confidence in the face of Emperor Saiviru, although the war will definitely continue, but the cooperation between each other seems to be no longer so important, not to mention that they have not encountered the main force of the enemy so far, he should also be more cautious of the side, as for what is the situation on Emperor Saiviru's side, it seems that he does not need to worry too much, after all, they are known to have gone through many big battles with each other, and after a long period of trade, they know each other very well, Since their savings plan will be discovered, then the enemy's deployment of troops is probably also within their expectations, maybe the spies of the Western Great Qin Empire have already infiltrated the interior of the Rest Empire, and it may even be earlier than Suning, and has established close ties with the rebel forces, if so, then he is obliged to provide more information to his allies, that is, Suning and others, but they have not done so, since they can't get their care, There is no need to think about their life and death, Suning thinks that the solution to this war has become simpler, they just need to continue to move forward, slowly find the main force of the Li army, and start a big war with one by one, for the now weak Rest Empire, if their main military force is completely destroyed in a war, then the meaning and ability of them to continue to survive have become small, What's more, they are now facing the joint attack of the two major empires in the east and the west, coupled with the internal rebel forces, which is enough for them to completely decline, although the current situation, there are still many barriers for them to survive, especially this complex terrain, it has simply become Suning's Liangzhou system, a nightmare to move forward, and their strange tactics have always made the current Suning feel untouchable, of course, it is undeniable that in the face of absolute strength, their defeat is likely to be inevitable, Although Suning felt that there was not much time left for himself, it was undeniable that under the tight and intensive war arrangements that followed, the time left for the Rest Empire seemed to be even less.
But at this time, those staff officers who sent you finally brought him an unfortunate news, although the reason why the main force of the enemy army could not be found in the past was finally found, but this is not a good thing, at least in Suning, the other party is so deliberate to deal with him, obviously he has been prepared for a long time, if their internal contradictions are not resolved, I am afraid it will be difficult to make such an effective arrangement and arrangement, at least bless those nobles who have fiefs in the border areas, give up their land and property, I'm afraid it's a very difficult thing in itself, but their emperor actually did it magically, which makes Suning have to believe that there are signs of reconciliation within them, if that's the case, then he, a powerful foreign enemy, is likely to become their common target, and if you want to get some benefits from it, I'm afraid it will be much more difficult than expected, but I don't know if the Saiweiru Emperor of the Western Great Qin Empire has the same view as him, if so, Then the two sides should communicate immediately, at least before the outbreak of the next war, to make a more suitable plan, because now Suning has realized that I am afraid that this attack of the lion fighting rabbit will not be as smooth as they imagined.
What kind of answer should his staff have brought him, in fact, it is very simple, it is nothing more than four words, that is, the strong wall is clear, yes, the Persians actually adopted one of the favorite strategies of the Chinese, and in this way, it will undoubtedly make the enemy's supply line very long, and they will not get any replenishment in the process of attacking, so that all they can do is to advance slowly, and she also needs the appearance of ambushes at all times, For such a strategic deployment, although the price to be paid is very heavy, but it is often very likely to be able to achieve a decisive victory, as long as this victory is in hand, then everything that is lost may be taken back hundreds of times at the negotiation table, which is obviously a very powerful and global regime can do, because it is very difficult to make the people under him give up their rights and land, and the last Western Xia Empire for more than 800 years can do it, It does not mean that the rest of the empire of this time and space can also do it, although Suning has a full understanding of their art of war, after all, they have a history of hundreds of years, and have fought a series of wars with the Greek Empire, although they were finally defeated by Alexander the Great, but the art and strategic awareness of those castles are likely to have also spread to their minds, in this way, they will have a very strong combat effectiveness, at least for Suning's retail system, it is a force that cannot be underestimated.
However, the method of dealing with this kind of strategy and tactics is actually very simple, that is, to fight steadily and steadily, step by step, every kilometer of advancement, there is a real control of one kilometer, so that the strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness may not get the ideal effect, because he cannot be the enemy again, and he will not be able to create a powerful enough fighting opportunity.
So the Suning to Liangzhou system suddenly slowed down the speed of advance, they slowly and leisurely stopped in the places they passed, and even really prepared to use fortress tactics to control these border areas under their control, this approach really angered those local lords, although they had already hidden near the national capital, and had already built strong fortifications there and even adopted various methods, It is also more than their military deployment around them when Suning's Liangzhou group attacks near the capital, and then suddenly appears around them, and finally gives them a fatal blow, but now it seems that these preparations are superfluous, because Suning is not ready to attack their capital at all, but inch by inch of land is their territory, and now they are no longer as easy to talk in front of the emperor as they were at the beginning, and even most of them have clearly proposed to the emperor that their soldiers must be sent, Fighting back against the invading army of the Han Empire, if they did not do so, they would leave the Emperor's control and use their own abilities to take back the territory that should belong to them, under such a threat, the Emperor of the Rest Empire made a strong response, he ordered his cronies to send troops immediately, kill all these nobles who rebelled against him, and try to annex their army, but these nobles are obviously not fuel-efficient lamps, although they put themselves in danger, But they sent their sons to the barracks, and if their personal safety was in question, those sons would immediately lead their troops out of the vicinity of Gudu, so that the emperor's military deployment would be completely in vain, and after this situation in Zhengzhou, the emperor immediately stopped the original murder plan, and was ready to talk to these nobles.
However, the process of this negotiation is going on, and it is a bit lengthy, and even Suning has begun to mobilize a large number of engineers from the rear to rush to the front-line battlefield, and after sowing a large number of forward reconnaissance personnel, they use the advanced technology and experience of these engineers on the front line, and start to make a large number of construction engineering materials from local materials, and prepare to transform these materials into defensive fortresses one by one, so that their battle line can be relatively stable, as for the places they have occupied, I was not in a hurry to build a fortress, because those places, as long as there was the protection of the fortress on the front, it could actually be in my own hands, and this phenomenon was transmitted to those nobles near the capital at a faster speed, of course, people could not be aware of the danger of the situation, so they immediately increased their requirements in front of the emperor, but the emperor was not able to fulfill his promise, so the contradictions between the two sides finally got out of control, The emperor finally sent these arrogant nobles on his spiritual level, and his subordinates really took the lead in leaving the vicinity of the imperial capital and launched a counterattack against Suning, unfortunately Suning still did not build too many fortresses at this time, so all they could do was to lead all their men to rush in front of each other and fight a decisive battle, but this is exactly what they want to do.
The war that was long-awaited by the Liangzhou system broke out like this, although it occupied an absolute advantage on the battlefield, but Suning did not launch a rash attack, he had been waiting for the army led by the children of the nobles, before rushing to the battle line, he slowly withdrew his reconnaissance force, and arranged more defenses near the line, and then sent his other troops from the two wings and then those noble soldiers who came to make trouble, the enemy at this time actually did not have much military combat ability. Due to the relative recession of the economy in the Anxi Empire, they do not have the ability to manufacture enough military equipment, as for the various logistics supply forces, they are even more fragile to be compared with the Liangzhou system, perhaps in this world, the most logistics department and spirit are the soldiers of the two systems, but at this time other empires do not seem to realize the importance of army logistics supply. At least the energy in their hands hasn't been completely tilted towards this realm.
You are near Suning's defensive line, and a scorching war has begun to appear, although the soldiers of the Rest Empire are high-spirited, after all, they want to return to their hometown, praise once, and obtain their own land, which was given to them by their lords, for the sake of their past military exploits, they have these things, which they exchanged for their own flesh and blood, and it is absolutely impossible to give up easily, but now in order to ensure the smooth implementation of the emperor's plan, they have to give up those things for a short time, and the emperor is not sure enough to completely drive away the invading Han Empire army, because the cunning prime minister of the Han Empire seems to have seen through the emperor's plan, they are not ready to rush to the imperial capital quickly, but slowly and leisurely occupy every inch of the land that passes, in this way, when they rush to the vicinity of the capital, the power behind them will develop strong enough, and the emperor will definitely not be able to compete with such a powerful, back-up army, so if they can be in the capital, it will inevitably be a death, that's why they took the initiative to rush out and fight to the death with this cunning prime minister,
But what they never expected was that the Han Empire, which was supposed to be called to fight them to the death, did not rush to fight with them, although their war deployment was very active, but the soldiers sent out were very few, and the means were also very insidious, because they were outflanking each noble army that came to attack from two different directions, so that what they could do was to entangle with these armies and constantly trace their traces, However, they have been active in this area for a long time, and the geography that they were not familiar with is now a place that is very familiar to them, but the army of these nobles, because their fiefdoms are in the border area, and this is close to the interior, so they are not as familiar with the environment here as Bingbing, so that they have been in the spotlight many times and have paid a heavy price.
And this is just the beginning of Suning's strategy.
