In the third year of the Great Cangli calendar, the Daqing Dynasty took the lead in attacking, with 1.5 million troops on the east and west roads, totaling 3 million.

In May, the army of the Datong Dynasty was launched, also with an elite 3 million, and it was also on the territory of the original Dahong Dynasty, coercing a million people to serve as slaves, serving as cannon fodder along the way.

In addition, he sent a naval division to lead 100,000 naval troops to harass the southeastern border of the Dacang Dynasty.

The armies of the two dynasties were menacing, and in less than a month, they broke through the border line successively, captured dozens of cities, and pursued the strategy of fighting to feed the war, wantonly looting and plundering.

Of the dozens of cities captured, three of the remaining were slaughtered.

The people of the rest of the cities also fled to the ravine in the countryside, or from these two counties, and traveled thousands of miles to the interior for refuge.

Not to mention how miserable and pitiful the people of Wudong County and Wuxi County are, let's just say that most of the people on the southeast coast have been plundered and harassed by the sailors of the Datong Dynasty, and the people hate them so much that they grit their teeth, and the local government soldiers are responsible for resisting, but with little effect, because these sailors are from the sea, and they come and go fast in the early morning, and they are divided into small groups and flow around on the long coastline.

Over time, the people also had a new name for these sailors of the Datong Dynasty - Haikou.

Such rampant aggression made Yang Mu, who received the news, furious.

The slaughter of the city was already very rare during the chaos of the countries of the Dali Dynasty, especially in the later period, once a city was captured, then the people in the city were also the people of their own country, and for the future operation, there were few massacres.

Massacres generally occur in some long-term attacks, in order to motivate the soldiers to work hard, and then issue a slaughter order, which can also be regarded as a reward and venting anger.

Yang Mu never thought that the huge army of a dynasty would issue a slaughter order after breaking through the city, and not only slaughter one city, according to the battle report on the front line, based on the slaughter of 50,000 people in each city, nearly ten cities were slaughtered, which means that 500,000 innocent people suffered.

Terrifying numbers!

You must know that in the process of Cangguo's domination of the world over the years, there are not so many innocent souls who died directly under the knife of the Cangguo army!

This is similar to the time of the Tang Empire in history.

Although benevolence was advocated at that time, in foreign wars, it was common to slaughter cities at every turn, and those famous generals had a good reputation among the people, but in fact, in the eyes of the foreigners, they were just demons who killed people without blinking.

This means that if you treat your own people as human beings, all Gentiles will be enemies.

Yang Mu issued a holy decree overnight and formulated some wills.

First of all, the state propaganda apparatus is working, and the Great Cangshi Times publishes a special issue, which will not stop as long as the war does not subside, and will serve as a weapon of unifying thinking to propagate the evil deeds of the aggressors.

Then, it strengthened the military deployment in the northern region and mobilized the entire army and logistical forces to prepare for a huge war.

Subsequently, some passive and incompetent government soldiers on the southeast coast were punished, and more than 30 generals at the level of general soldiers (10,000 generals) were taken down in various localities.

At the same time, the navy's five major fleets were also ordered to leave the port, and the first, second, and third fleets searched the southeast coast.

In the past few days, I was really lucky enough to encounter some small groups of pirates, and under the attack of ships and artillery, all of them were completely annihilated.

In fact, fighting on land is different from land.

In the vast sea, as long as the number is not too much lower than the enemy, once it encounters a life-and-death battle, it will basically divide a winner or loser, and this victory or defeat is still very absolute, usually the losing side is completely annihilated, and few people can escape.

Therefore, the successive destruction of several Haikou troops was silent, except for the army on the side of the Dacang Dynasty who knew the inside story, the navy of the Datong Dynasty did not know at all.

Of course, this achievement is not worth boasting about, but there is no way to do it, and even ten times the number of troops cannot be prevented.

Only when its own navy is strong and enters the territory of the Great Unification Dynasty can it be countered.

It is a pity that the five naval fleets of the Dacang Dynasty have been built for a relatively short period of time, and each fleet has only a dozen large warships, and its strength is still limited.

It is important to know that the navy and the army are different, and the construction of warships does not happen overnight, and it should take about three years if it is to reach the expected scale.

If you want to send troops to the Great Unification Dynasty, you have to wait for the dozens of warships that are being cast by the Ministry of Industry to be built.

In August, the Daqing Dynasty, which took the lead in sending troops, suffered hardship.

Cavalry!

It can be said that compared with the Daqing Dynasty, the biggest advantage of the Dacang Dynasty's army is a variety of advanced weapons and cavalry.

Although the cavalry has been dominating the world for more than 20 years, and the rest of the major dynasties have learned some, in terms of the scale and combat effectiveness of the cavalry, the Dacang Dynasty is second to none.

It can be said that the number of cavalry of the other three dynasties added up, which is also the number of the Dacang Dynasty.

Ge Lie, the commander of the Qilin Legion, led 200,000 cavalry, opened the swallowtail formation, attacked from both flanks, and cooperated with the army of the White Tiger Legion to besiege the Daqing West Road army of nearly one million troops.

The large-scale rout of the Daqing army, enough grain and grass for a million army was burned, and it had to retreat for hundreds of miles to join the Chinese army of the East Route Army.

This battle can be said to be the first large-scale blow since the invasion of the two dynasties, and the terrifying military weapons and cavalry of Cangguo were shown in front of the army of the Daqing Dynasty for the first time.

In particular, the power of the red-coated cannon hit the morale of the Daqing army hard.

The Daqing army should be said to be relatively lucky, because this battle, because it was a cavalry rush battle, so the number of red-coated cannons was not much, and it only played a great role in defeating the enemy's formation in the early stage, and the subsequent battle was beyond the attack range of the red-coated cannons.

The Daqing army, which was naturally superior and unwilling to admit defeat, was only a temporary strategic retreat, and did not become timid because of this, but changed its strategy, took the initiative to contact the army of the Datong Dynasty, and agreed to attack together.

Jinyiwei has a detailed work within the Great Unification Army early in the morning, although he can't grasp the secrets of the high-level, but he can be said to know the general movements of the army well, and after the White Tiger Legion and the Qilin Legion learned about it, they immediately stepped up their precautions, and at the same time returned to the Righteous Army, the Vermilion Bird Army, and the Xuanwu Army, all of which were assembled in the direction of the army of the Great Unification Dynasty.

Because, according to the news of the detailed work, the army of the Daqing Dynasty and the army of the Datong Dynasty intend to jointly launch a campaign against the Cangguo army in early October.
