Chapter 204: A Righteous Battle

The news of the great victory on the frontier soon spread throughout the country.

The people rejoiced, a great victory can not determine the success or failure of a war, but at least it shows that Sheng Guo is not invincible, and Cangguo has the ability to win more with less.

Throughout the country, there was a steady stream of young and strong soldiers, and the government of each city was setting up workshops to organize the people and women to cut down trees and make special arrows for repeaters.

The aristocrats in China took the initiative to open their granaries and organize their families to be transported to the border.

This is the situation of the Cangguo.

In the Shengguo court, after receiving the battle report, the emperor of Shengguo was immediately furious and flipped the table in anger.

130,000!

This is equivalent to more than one percent of the Shengguo army! Just perished on the Shengcang border?

Even in the more than ten years of confrontation with the cave country, he has never lost so many people.

For a country, 130,000 soldiers not only represent the young and strong population, but also represent a large amount of money, for the current situation of Shengguo, from conscription to training, and then to actual combat, if you want to equip such an army, it is not possible to do it for two or three years.

For Emperor Sheng, this defeat was like a resounding slap in the face.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the Jin Dynasty Alliance, under a good situation, to block the Emperor of Cangguo, destroy Cangguo in one fell swoop, take all its land, and seize papermaking and book printing, as well as the legendary repeater, which will definitely make Shengguo's national strength soar at that time.

Not only that, once the Cangguo is annexed, the emperor of the Cangguo Kingdom is like a lost dog, and under some persecution, he will definitely offer the Miaoxi he dreamed of.

The idea in his heart was very simple, since the Emperor Cangguo could conquer it by violence, why couldn't I?

Expand the territory, improve the national strength, get a beauty, and have an extra master to protect you...... That's a lot of money.

For this reason, he planned to arrange a palace in the harem, and after Miaoxi entered the palace, he could move in directly.

But reality gave him a resounding slap in the face.

The 130,000-strong army was wiped out overnight, and the plan to destroy the Cangguo suffered a heavy setback.

You must know that the total strength of Cangguo is only 130,000!

It is a great shame to be annihilated by such a small country with a main border army!

How does this make the major vassal states view the prosperous country?

I'm afraid that in the future, he will become a joke among the vassal states, and whenever people think of the night attack, they will remember that Sheng Guo was once taught a hard lesson by a small country.

For the sake of today, it is to find a way to make up for it.

Fortunately, Cangguo only relied on night attacks to achieve a big victory this time, which made Sheng Guojun's ministers feel a little better, as long as they reminded the front-line soldiers not to underestimate the enemy, they would not be given another chance in the future.

On the third day of the night attack, the offensive and defensive situation on the border between the two countries underwent some changes.

On the one hand, after the Qinglong Youth League achieved a great victory, it advanced to the northwest and quickly captured the cities of the two prosperous countries, which can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold.

On the other hand, Sheng Guo exerted pressure in other areas, and the defensive areas of the three major legions were all overwhelmed by the army.

At the same time, in order to prevent the Blue Dragon Legion from attacking the hinterland of Shengguo, Shengguo mobilized a large number of local troops to block it.

In this way, the entire border can be divided into four sections.

On the border near the west, the Blue Dragon Legion is on the offensive, and the other three places are all on the defensive.

As expected, after that war, the generals of Sheng Guo were very angry and ashamed, and often led their soldiers to scold outside the city.

At the end of June, the Qilin Legion finally had a place to use again, quietly moving to the White Tiger Legion's station.

Speaking of which, the commanders of the two armies still have some origins, Geng Gui and Sima Hong, it can be said that they don't know each other, and they are a little sympathetic.

"My General Geng, you are really majestic, you destroyed 130,000 people in a battle...... "Tsk...... "Sima Hong pretended to be envious, and sighed.

How could Geng Gui not know the sour taste in Sima Hong's words, and said with a wry smile: "General Sima, don't joke, in that battle, my Qilin Legion also played the role of a sneak attack, and if you are beheaded, most of them are still the credit of the brothers of the Blue Dragon Legion." ”

"Then this time, do you want to give me a credit too?" Sima Hong's eyes flickered.

"This is natural, brother's recommendation, I Genggui is unforgettable." Geng Gui gave up.

"Don't say that." Sima Hong waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty has already made a decision in his heart, and I will just add the icing on the cake, let's say, this time your Qilin Legion has transferred to me, what is the big move?" ”

"This ......" Geng Gui hesitated for a moment and asked solemnly, "Has General Sima received a will?" ”

Sima Hong shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is not in the country, where is there any will?" The queen was in charge of the country and issued an edict to the military department, and the military department was also a group of guys who didn't understand the battle formation, and just ordered us to act at the opportunity, guard the station, and not easily move the defense. ”

When Geng Gui heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's enough, my Qilin Legion is not here to ask your army to move defense, just need to cooperate." ”

"Cooperation?"

"That's right, now that the Blue Dragon Legion is on the west side, it has captured two cities, as long as our side annihilates the main force of the enemy army, we can join forces in one place, dig through the hinterland of Sheng Kingdom, and lead troops all the way to the border of Dong Country to welcome back Your Majesty!"

Sima Hong was startled, and hurriedly said, "Are you crazy?" To put it lightly, to destroy the main force of the enemy army in a war? That's nearly 200,000 troops! ”

Geng Gui said solemnly: "General Sima has never seen the power of my Qilin Legion, and it is normal to have such thoughts, besides, the main force of the enemy army may not have 200,000!" ”

"What's the explanation?"

Geng Gui asked someone to bring a map, spread it out on the ground, and said: "General, please see, this is the station of the White Tiger Legion, as long as we defeat the main force of the enemy, we can block the Sheng army that rushed to support from the east and cooperate with the advance of the Blue Dragon Legion." ”

"But...... The main force of the enemy army ...... "Sima Hong has always thought about the crux of the problem.

"General, don't worry, this time, a certain is not going to sneak attack, but is preparing to fight with Sheng Jun in a dignified manner!"

"A dignified battle?"

"Early tomorrow morning, we can make the next war letter, threatening to fight with the enemy, the Sheng army is holding its breath, and there are kings and ministers urging each other, and the main force will definitely converge. However, it had to guard against the Suzaku Legion and the Xuanwu Legion, so it had to divide its troops to confront each other, and the main force that could be gathered in one place would be 150,000 at most. ”

"However, even if it is 150,000, it is not something that the 30,000 soldiers of the White Tiger Legion can contend with, if it is a decisive battle, it will definitely open the city and fight, even if you add your Qilin Legion, it will be four times as much as ours." Sima Hong said, suddenly as if he remembered something, and said, "Do you want to say that with your Qilin Army, you can compete with 100,000 people, right?" ”
