On April 25, the fifth year of the Apocalypse, the Northern Expeditionary Corps of the Western Expeditionary Army fought fiercely with the Samanids in Broken Leaf City for a day, and the two divisions of the Guard Battalion and the Uighur Corps worked together to completely wipe out nearly 100,000 Samanid cavalry, if it wasn't for Li Feixue's last-minute order to capture prisoners, I am afraid that these last 30,000 people would also become a pile of dry bones outside Broken Leaf City. It's just that after the news reached Wan Yi's hands, there was not much joy on his face, but he personally wrote a letter to the base camp and sent someone to send it urgently.

"Dashuai, this is the latest news from the deputy marshal's side, and the movement of the Safar Dynasty is a little weird." Liu Xuan saw that Wan Yi was still reading the military report jointly sent by Li Feixue and Hammud in his hand and knew what the other party was worried about, but even if this matter was worried, there was no good way, the Tang Dynasty's recovery of all the territories of Anxi Dadu in the past year would inevitably collide with the Great Food Empire, but what made everyone strange was that this scene actually appeared on the side of the Samanid people in the north first, which shows that I am afraid that the Heavenly Fang Sect has included all the high-level Samanids. This is not the previous Shazhou or Anxi's side, the Tianfang Sect is just a folk religion, and it has not risen to the point of controlling the state power, but when the Samanid people are involved in foreign wars, they actually have Tianfang Sect monks to participate, and they also stay with the main general, and they do all the army soldiers to bring about a strange increase in combat power, which makes Wan Yi a little worried in surprise, the northern front is not a big problem, after all, the main force of the Western Expeditionary Army is here, Both Qarluq and Saman have actually fallen into a situation of exhaustion and rapid decline in strength after being attacked by themselves, and it is not a big problem to recover these two places, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has begun to organize personnel to prepare for the migration of part of the Qarluq people to Tatar Province, and the remaining part is arranged to go south into the territory of Anxi, most of the Qarluq area is grassland, and after expelling most of the Qarluq headquarters, in fact, its territory only needs to fight to Yibohai and Zaisangbo. The Samanids, on the other hand, have been biased towards the blonde and blue-eyed appearance of the West because of ethnic issues, so Tuoba Si Ji thought about it and planned to maintain the status quo for the time being, migrate some of the descendants of the Zhaowu Nine surnames to the past, and even some people came up with the idea of moving some people to the Safarid Dynasty, so as to artificially disperse the connections between the various tribes, so as to stabilize the situation in the short term and buy time for the people in the interior of the subsequent empire to migrate over.

"It seems that the situation on the southern front is not optimistic." Wan Yi was a little worried after reading the latest developments on the southern route that Liu Xuan handed over to Gao Siji, and said: "This Heavenly Fang Sect really has a set, and it actually has such a skill. Chief of Staff, go and inform the Samanid prisoners on the northern front not to be sent to the interior for the time being, but to Shule for the time being, and let the National Guard arrange for them to carry out labor reform near Shule. It can be seen that Wan Yi is also a little worried about Hammad's suggestion, for fear that these captured Samanids will affect the people in the interior, so he does not plan to send them to the railway line in a short time.

"In this matter, Xuan Yingwei has Qin Kong on his side, and he should be able to deal with the changes in the country of the Safar Dynasty, and Zhao Si also has news on the northern front, it is estimated that he will leave for the south as soon as the matter of Gongyue City is over." Liu Xuan actually didn't care much about the siege of Bohe Prefecture by the Safarid Dynasty army this time, what surprised him was that there was a split within the Safarid Dynasty at this time, and some middle and high-level people advocated peace with the lobby, and even turned out the allusion that most of the area south of the Green Ridge in the era of Anxi Dadu was under the Dadu Protectorate a hundred years ago, saying that in fact, there was nothing bad about being a vassal force of a powerful dynasty, at least it would not become a victim of the competition between the two empires. Although this wave seems to be very weak at present, it has given Xuan Yingwei a very good opportunity to infiltrate, and Tuoba Sijian has already sent Sima Daoxin to urgently forward as the head of the military administration area of the southern occupation area of the Green Mountains, which is to deal with this force, and at the same time break the fighting spirit of the Safar Dynasty and assist the army to open up the situation as soon as possible.

"Go and inform the direct battalion to immediately go north to join Zhao Si and prepare to attack Gongyue City, and at the same time order the Uighur corps to set out from Broken Leaf City to sweep the Yibo Sea area, and the personal guard battalion will attack and advance in the northwest direction after the temporary rest of Broken Leaf City." Wan Yi took a deep breath and asked Liu Xuan to issue an order, and the northern front officially entered the offensive stage. However, Liu Xuan saw that Wan Yi had never used his hands when he was assigning the task, and the Seventh Corps, which was acting with the command headquarters, immediately understood what was going on, so he nodded and turned around and went out.

The northern front turned to a full-scale attack, and the southern line thousands of miles away in the southern part of the green mountains, after crossing the mountains and mountains of the green mountains, but the Bohe Prefecture was in the midst of war at this time, Gao Siji's southern marching corps had already fought with the Safar Dynasty in this place, although the logistics of the Tiance army were difficult because of the barrier of the green mountains, but after the local Anxi remnants successively gathered in the Bohe Prefecture and the areas north of it, in fact, the food problem, the biggest logistical problem, could be solved locally. With the support of Song Lingxun and other local nobles, civil affairs officials began to carry out industrial and commercial reforms in the early stage of the model, encouraging them to trade with Khotan and other hinterlands, so as to support the consumption of materials on the front line and develop the local economy.

However, Gao Siji did not plan to directly enter the decisive battle stage at this time, and after Qin Kong found out that there was a split within the Safar Dynasty, the two always thought that the time had come for them to divide and disintegrate the domestic political forces of the Saffarid, so Gao Siji asked Qin Kong to rely on the dark guards who had entered the Safar in the early stage to let go of the secret guards, and he led the army to confront him near Bohezhou, grasping the direction of the battle situation and the rhythm of Qin Kong's side. Gao Siji, who had an army of 100,000 in his hand, could already calmly control the pace of the war at this time, and cooperated with Qin Kong at any time. Therefore, when there was a fierce battle on the side of Shattered Leaf City, there was a situation on the southern front where small forces kept attacking, but the results were not great. The Southern Advance Corps began to carry out mountain combat training according to the capital, anyway, it would take time for a while and a half on the Qin Kong side, so Gao Siji began to put down his mind and train the Anxi Corps and the heavy cavalry battalion in the state of actual combat to combat the experience of mountain operations. In particular, the Anxi Corps has been greatly tempered at this time, not only the Saffar people as opponents, but also a belligerent heavy cavalry battalion lying beside them, in just half a month, that is, at the end of April, when Sima Daoxin rushed to Bohe Prefecture to start coordinating the rear government affairs, the Anxi Corps began a big change, and the temperament of the Anxi Corps, which had been tempered by non-stop fighting, had undergone great changes from top to bottom, and the restrained murderous aura and silence began to gradually rival the heavy cavalry battalion.

"Dashuai, this is the latest urgent report from Xuan Yingwei." While testing the combat strength of the troops, Gao Siji also received the latest information sent by Qin Kong after half a month, there was indeed a split within Safar, and the alliance of mountain tribes led by the northern tribe Zarhan and the mainstream ruling class of Safar had a fierce collision, and they were dissatisfied with the Abbasid Dynasty's rampant conquest within Safar, and the reluctance of the elite troops of the Great Food Empire to aid eastward also made these Safarid native forces feel that they have been abandoned by Baghdad, Abbas's side could no longer shelter the Safars. Therefore, when their own interests were seriously threatened, and the objects they had been relying on were unwilling to support, these mountain tribal alliances decisively changed their doors and wanted to make peace with Datang. Because unlike the forces in the southwest of Safar, the area occupied by the Tang Dynasty is basically their territory, and it is their strength that is weakened, so they naturally don't want to see themselves weakened and the suzerainty does not come to save them.

"Go and inform Tie Liang and Zhang Sheng to come to the tent immediately." Gao Siji put down the information in his hand thoughtfully, Qin Kong clearly stated at the end of the information that the general territory of this northern mountain tribal alliance is not a place with a developed economy and agriculture, but it is a place with a relatively special geographical location in the north of Safar. Qin Kong's intention was to take advantage of the split in the Safar country and the delay in the reinforcements of the Great Food Empire to take all these places first, and then accelerate the break between the northern mountain tribal alliance and the southwestern Safar mainstream tribes, and then bring the general momentum from north to south to subdue the southwestern tribes, as for these capricious northern mountain tribal alliances, Xuan Yingwei was responsible for dealing with them.

Qin Kong did not say how to deal with the Northern Mountain Tribal Alliance, but Gao Siji understood what the other party meant, the Northern Mountain Tribal Alliance that lost its territory must have suffered a great loss in strength, and its status and voice in Safar's domestic politics will inevitably decline greatly. And by that time, the alliance of tribes in the northern mountainous areas, which had been stained with the blood of their own people, was afraid that there would be no way to turn back, so they could only follow the path drawn by Qin Kong and move forward. And in this way, it is equivalent to using them to successfully lay a nail in the world of the Heavenly Sect.

"The two of you immediately move the battle line forward, then attack the Safar army, take the opportunity to recover the Governor of Tofei Prefecture and the Governor of Yueban Prefecture, and then arrange them along the lower reaches of the Kulu River and east of Seja Castle." After Gao Si saw Zhang Sheng and Tie Liang coming in, he didn't say much, pointed to the area where Bird Feizhou and Yuebanzhou were located on the map, and said, "Take all the areas of these two places within ten days, and completely drive the Safar army out of these places." ”

"Deputy Marshal, is there any information from Xuan Yingwei's side?" Gao Siji's words made the two of them a little puzzled, although the two corps were fighting with each other during this time, they basically did not aim to occupy the chassis city, and at this time, they suddenly changed their combat goals, and they were afraid that Xuan Yingwei had discovered something.

Gao Siji nodded and said, "Xuanyingwei's side has indeed discovered that the forces in these two regions and even the area north of the city of Faint Duo have already clashed with other regional forces in Safar because they were heavily damaged by us in the early stage. Qin Kong's side intends to completely divide and disintegrate the forces within Safar, so we need to cooperate to take these two places. After explaining these things in a few words, Gao Si continued: "I have been training with them for half a month, but I am afraid that the Safarid people have also slackened, thinking that we will not go south, so you can now take them by surprise." I don't care how the specific battle will be fought, I don't care if the two of you discuss it yourself, I just need the result, and my Southern Advance Corps headquarters will appear on time in Segashen City before the tenth day of the fifth month. Gao Siji's words made the faces of the two become solemn, this battle is not difficult to fight, as Gao Siji said, they completely took advantage of the surprise, but Gao Siji let them make their own decisions, but the two of them understood that they were afraid of the specific battle of the Southern Advance Corps in the future, unless necessary, Gao Siji would not interfere too much, so after the two glanced at each other, they both nodded solemnly.

Zhang Sheng and Tie Liang came out after a little discussion, and immediately began to gather troops to send troops, and in order to cover their intentions, Zhang Sheng led the Anxi Corps to the west in the source of the Bole River to the west, towards the city of Dudaduo to attract the attention of the Safar army, and after taking away the troops of the main position, Tie Liang's heavy cavalry battalion immediately attacked to the south, and after capturing Shang Mi three days later, this illness went westward from the south to the territory of the Torifei Prefecture Governor's Mansion, and after a rapid march in the mountains, it went west to attack the city of Shihanna, where the Governor of Yueban Prefecture was located, After annihilating all the Saffar troops in the city who did not expect to be attacked, it is equivalent to completely cutting off the retreat of all Safarid troops in Tofei Prefecture. At this time, the Anxi army fought a big battle with the Safar army outside the city of Dudado, and after inflicting heavy losses on the other side, they took advantage of the situation to take the city. In order to pursue the speed of attack, Zhang Sheng didn't even enter the city at all, but only sent a capital of men and horses to be stationed here to maintain order and wait for the rear to receive it, and then he led the main force of Ma Xingye to the south to besiege Sega Trial City. In this way, Tieliang formed an offensive in the south and north, although the two were separated by hundreds of miles and there were mountain peaks in the middle, but the two of them began to advance westward to the Kulu River valley like a heart, killing all the Safarian troops who were broken by breaking their courage on the river bank, and even some of them jumped into the river to escape were killed in the river by the Tiance army. At this point, with the exception of about 50,000 men who had withdrawn west from the city of Sejashen, there was no longer a shadow of the regular army of Safar in the two states.

After the large-scale attack of the Tiance army directly took down the entire Bird Fei Prefecture and Yueban Prefecture, it caused an uproar within the Safar Dynasty again, and hundreds of thousands of troops fought fiercely with the Tiance army near Bohe Prefecture for half a month, and they were actually beaten by the other side and lost their armor, and also lost the land of two states. Tsal Khan, who learned that all the Essence Land had fallen, was no longer concerned about face at this time, and directly reprimanded the army for being incompetent and losing their territory in their internal meeting. And once again questioned Safar's strategy against the Tang Dynasty, believing that the Tang Dynasty was incomparably powerful and not something that Safar could deal with, and if the Baghdad Caliphate did not send troops, then Safar would have to find a way to save himself.

The alliance of northern mountain tribes represented by Zarhan was not the mainstream force within Safar in the first place, and his own territory was quickly taken by the Tiance Army, so naturally not many people responded to his words. However, the frustrated Zarhan was not resigned to his defeat, and for the northern mountain tribal alliance, they were able to gain a foothold within the Safar but had their own unique position. However, as he made up his mind, he did not know that Saffar had really reached a crossroads from that moment.
