Chapter 492: The Abandoned Gao Changguo
The armies of the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Anxiguo Army, which were gathered to the west of Cilisi City, received orders to withdraw their troops from the country, and the kings of the three countries unanimously demanded that the troops of their respective countries withdraw directly from the Gaochang Kingdom, and the three countries would withdraw from this holy war led by the Holy Fire Cult.
Early in the morning of November 11, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, the troops of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, which had avoided fighting against the Broken Army for two consecutive days, abandoned the camp west of Zhilisi City, and began to retreat in the direction of the Gaochang Kingdom of Olun Province, and at the same time, the Broken Army also received a letter from the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
The meaning of this letter is very simple, the commanders of the Three Kingdoms Alliance told Liu Ji that the three countries decided to end the war caused by a misunderstanding, and the army of Dawan State, the army of Cheshi State and the army of Anxi State are about to withdraw from Gaochang State and return to their respective countries, hoping that the Broken Army can release some of the generals captured by the Three Kingdoms Alliance, mainly referring to Hamulsa, a peerless master of the royal family of Cheshi State who worships Tafasca and the royal guard of Dawan Kingdom.
Of course, saying that the misunderstanding is just a rhetoric, and this letter is actually the strong combat effectiveness displayed by the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army in the face of the Broken Army, and it is forced to admit it.
In Liu Ji's tent in the camp of the Broken Army outside the city of Cilis, Liu Ji held the letter sent by the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army in his hand, and said to the generals with a happy face: "I didn't expect Dawan, Cheshi, and the Three Kingdoms to admit it so easily, and now the armies of the Three Kingdoms have begun to retreat, and this war launched by the four major powers in the Western Regions against our Broken Army, our Broken Army has basically won!" ”
Zhang Liang said at this time: "My lord, the meaning of this letter sent by the Three Kingdoms Alliance is obvious, it is not to want our Broken Army to pursue their retreating army, according to our record in the previous four days, it is normal for the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country and the Anxi Kingdom to decide to withdraw from this war, if the armies of the Three Kingdoms continue to consume our Broken Army like this, the first to collapse must be the armies of their three countries, but just in case, my subordinates think that we should also send a large number of scouts to monitor the armies of the three countries, lest they come up with any tricks. ”
Fang Xuanling followed and said: "I believe that there should be no fake for the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country and the Anxibi Kingdom to withdraw from this war, but as Zhang Liang said, just in case, we should still send more scouts to monitor the retreating Three Kingdoms Alliance." ”
Liu Ji said approvingly: "It is true that more scouts should be sent, if it weren't for the Three Kingdoms army outside Cilis City, which still has more than three million troops, General Ben will definitely not let them leave easily." ”
As for the request of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to release the captured generals from the Broken Army, Liu Ji directly ignored them.
Li Ru immediately said to Liu Ji: "My lord, since the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Anxi Kingdom have all withdrawn from this war, then our enemy is only the Gaochang Kingdom, which is a good opportunity to expand the territory of the Western Regions Protectorate!" ”
Liu Ji nodded, "Our Western Regions Protectorate is not adjacent to Dawan Country, Cheshi Country, and Anxi Country, so we have to settle the accounts on the head of Gaochang Kingdom, each brigade should hurry up and rest, once the armies of Dawan, Cheshi, and Anxi withdraw from Gaochang Kingdom, our Broken Army will immediately launch an attack on Gaochang Province's Olun Province!" ”
"Whoa-" With a bang, Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, swept the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, teapot and teacup on the desk in front of him to the ground with a wave of his hand.
"This group of treacherous bastards, our Gaochangguo can be said to have endured humiliation for this war against the Broken Army, and even agreed to such excessive requests from the three of them, but now they have only encountered a little difficulty, and the three of them have abandoned our Gaochangguo!" King Mujshid angrily yelled at Prime Minister Mengtai Suier.
The Holy Fire Sect had already relayed the withdrawal of the Great Wan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Sabbatical Kingdom from this war to the Gaochang Kingdom, which made the King of the Gaochang Kingdom, Mujshid, feel a trace of despair while being angry.
The war situation in Cilis City, the king of Gaochang Kingdom Mujshid has all known, the five million elite troops of Dawan Kingdom, Cheshi Country and Anxi Country are helpless to break the army, and the alliance of the three kingdoms itself has suffered heavy losses, and now that Dawan Kingdom, Cheshi Country and Anxi Kingdom have withdrawn from the war, it means that Gaochang Kingdom is left alone to face the powerful army of Broken Captives, even if King Mujshid has reorganized eighteen legions, he still has no chance of winning.
And Gaochang State can't be like those three countries, saying that if you quit this war, you will withdraw from this war, after all, the Western Regions Protectorate of the Broken Army is adjacent to Gaochang State, and Gaochang has no place to retreat.
Prime Minister Meng Tai Sui'er smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the withdrawal of Dawan Kingdom, Cheshi Kingdom and Anxi Kingdom from this war can no longer be changed, the most important thing for our Gaochang Kingdom next is to quickly rearm for war, the Broken Army will definitely not end this war easily, and it is likely to attack the provinces of our Gaochang Kingdom." ”
King Mujhid listened to the words of Prime Minister Mengtai Suier, and said with a desperate face: "Even the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Anxib Kingdom combined, have not defeated the Broken Capture Army, relying on the eighteen newly reorganized legions under the command of this king, how can they be the opponent of the Broken Capture Army?" ”
Prime Minister Meng Tai Sui'er pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, in such a situation, it is impossible to count on the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Sabbath Kingdom, the only way to contact the three Metropolitan Governors is to quickly contact the three Metropolitan Governors and let the Three Metropolitan Governors send troops together with His Majesty's eighteen legions to resist the invasion of our Gaochang Kingdom by the Broken Army!" ”
"Will the three Grand Governors send troops? They didn't want to send a single soldier before! King Mujshid said with a frown.
Prime Minister Mengtai Suier said: "Your Majesty, this time is different from the past, the three Governors should understand the truth of the cold lips and teeth, once the five provinces directly under His Majesty the King are all occupied by the Broken Army, then the next unlucky will be the three Governors' Mansions!" Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier said in a deep voice.
King Mujshid nodded slowly and said: "What the prime minister said makes sense, if the Broken Capture Army continues to attack Gaochang Kingdom, this king and the three Grand Governors will be equivalent to becoming grasshoppers on a rope, and the five provinces under the command of this king have been captured by the Broken Capture Army, and the three of them will not be any better, and the Broken Capture Army will not let them go." ”
Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier continued: "That's right, with the greed of Liu Ji, the commander of the Broken Army, if the Broken Army captures the five provinces directly under His Majesty the King, it will definitely not stop, and the three Governor's Mansions will definitely become the prey of the Broken Army!" ”
King Mujshid's face at this time was slightly better, after he formed an alliance with Dawan State, Cheshi State, and Anxib State against the Broken Army, although the three governors of Gaochang State did not send a single soldier to join this alliance, but according to the information obtained by King Mujheed, the three governors of Gaochang State were not idle, and the three governors have all expanded their troops in the near future, and now the strength of the three governors has been very amazing.
Moreover, the armies of the three prefectures, in the previous confrontation with the broken army, the extent of the losses was not large, and the elite troops of the three prefectures were still there, if the three governors went all out, plus the eighteen legions that Mujhid had already formed, it was still very possible to hold the current territory of Gaochang Kingdom.
King Mujshid asked the Prime Minister Mentaisir, "What about the eight more legions that the king has ordered to be formed?" ”
Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier shook his head and said: "The time is too short, the generals at all levels of these eight legions have just been transferred, and they have not had time to recruit soldiers in various provinces, and those generals who have been transferred have almost all been promoted beyond the ranks, and some commanders have even been farmers with hoes or herdsmen driving sheep a few months ago, even if these eight legions are formed, His Majesty the King had better not expect too much from these eight legions!" ”
King Mujshid smiled bitterly and said: "Now it has come to the moment of life and death for our Gaochang Kingdom, and the issue of combat effectiveness is not considered first, we must try to build a huge number of troops and use countless lives to block the attack of the Broken Army on our Gaochang Kingdom." ”
Prime Minister Meng Tai Sui'er nodded solemnly and said, "Your Majesty the King can rest assured, the minister knows what to do!" ”
On the evening of 13 November, in the council chamber of the Governor's Palace, the southern governor of Gaochang State, Moriottu, the capital of the province of Huhofoz Province of Gaochang Kingdom, was the seat of the Southern Governor's Mansion of Gaochang State, and several of his henchmen were urgently summoned.
Moriktu said in a deep voice to several henchmen: "I just got a piece of news, the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Rest Kingdom have withdrawn from this four-nation alliance, and now our King Your Majesty will face the revenge of the Broken Army alone!" ”
Oshaerli, the commander of the First Legion of the Southern Governor's Mansion under Moriktu, said with a shocked face: "Governor, didn't there be news a few days ago that the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country, and the Sabbath Kingdom had gathered more than five million troops and launched an attack on the Broken Army? It's only been a few days, why did those three countries withdraw from the Quad Alliance? ”
The First Army is the main force of the entire Southern Governorate, with a total of 200,000 troops, of which half are cavalry and 10,000 infantry, with a total strength of more than 200,000.
At present, after the Southern Governor's army has been expanded, there are already twelve legions, in addition to the first, second, third and fourth legions, the remaining eight legions are mainly recruits, and the strength of each legion is about 50,000 or 60,000.
The second legion of the Southern Governor's Mansion has 150,000 troops, of which there are five cavalry 10,000 troops, and the remaining ten are infantry 10,000 troops, with a total strength of more than 150,000.
The Third and Fourth Legions were pure infantry corps, each with ten thousand infantry troops, each with a strength of about 100,000 men.
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th legions of the Southern Governor's Mansion are basically the old roots of the Southern Governor's Office, and their combat effectiveness is still very strong.
The commander of the Second Legion, Nordko, frowned and asked, "Father, could it be that the more than five million troops of the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country, and the Anxi Country have also been defeated?" ”
The Southern Governor Moriktu sighed and said: "It is indeed defeated, after more than five million troops of the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Anxi Kingdom entered the Gaochang Province occupied by the Broken Army, in addition to leaving hundreds of thousands of troops in the west of the Horisa Province, the Three Kingdoms Coalition Army gathered a full five million people, and the main force of the Broken Army launched a big battle outside the capital of the Huhesa Province, Cilis, as a result, in just four days of fighting, the Three Kingdoms Coalition Army lost 1.5 million people, and the loss of the Broken Army, But it is less than a quarter of the army of the Three Kingdoms, and the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country and the Anxi Kingdom can't stand it! ”
The commander of the First Legion, Oshaerli, frowned and said: "The withdrawal of the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Country and the Rest Kingdom can abandon our King Majesty, with the newly formed troops in the hands of our King Majesty, how can they resist the wolf-like broken army?" ”
The commander of the Third Legion, Mikileko, snorted coldly and said, "You deserve it! Who made our His Majesty the King have to provoke the great enemy of the Broken Army, the last loss, hasn't our His Majesty the King eaten enough! ”
The commander of the Second Legion, Nordko, shook his head and said, "We can't watch the Broken Army annex His Majesty's five provinces, in that case, our Gaochang Kingdom will exist in name only, and our Southern Governor's Mansion is likely to be invaded by the Broken Army next!" I think we should immediately contact the other two governors and jointly send troops to help His Majesty the King and resist the invasion of our Gaochang Kingdom by the Broken Army! ”
Musare, the commander of the Fourth Legion, nodded and said: "What Commander Nordko said makes sense, the people of the Jin Kingdom have an idiom called "cold lips and teeth", just like His Majesty the King and our three governors, once His Majesty the King is destroyed by the Broken Army, our three Governor's Mansions will also face the danger of being annexed by the Broken Army!" ”
The Southern Governor Moriktu touched his chin and said: "Our Southern Governor now has twelve legions, with a total strength of one million, and from the sixteen vassal states of our Southern Governorate, at least 200,000 troops can be drawn, the Western Governor and the Northern Governorate, after the recent expansion of the army, the strength should not be weaker than our Southern Governor's Office, and the strength of the many vassal states within the jurisdiction of their two Governors is not worse than the sixteen vassal states of our Southern Governor's Office, If the three Governors and His Majesty the King can work together, it is not impossible to defeat the Broken Army, after all, we are fighting on our own soil, and the time and place are favorable, and they are all on our side of Gaochang Kingdom. ”
