Chapter 440: The Four Great Powers of the Western Regions Colluded Together

After Shafige, the prime minister of the Great Wan Kingdom, the Prime Minister of the Gaochang Kingdom, Mengtai Suier, the Prime Minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, Aham, the Prime Minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Prime Minister of the Sabbath Kingdom, Yasar, left the Council of the Holy Fire Sect, the Bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, Os, asked Pope Fico with a worried face: "Your Majesty, do the Great Wan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Sabbatical Congress agree to send troops?" ”

The Bishop of the Eastern Diocese, Os, was very concerned about whether several countries would send troops, and he hoped to rely on this holy war to recapture the holy land of Talas City so as to rebuild the headquarters of the Eastern Diocese.

Pope Fico sighed and said, "We have already said what should be said, as for whether the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Sabbatical Kingdom will join the Holy War, we can only rely on the blessing of the fire god Wura." ”

Bishop Oss also sighed, "If the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Anxi Kingdom do not agree to send troops, then the Gaochang Kingdom alone will not be able to maintain this holy war, in fact, only the king Mujhid is willing to send troops in the Gaochang Kingdom, and the three governors of the Gaochang Kingdom who control the military power are unwilling to break out a big war with Liu Ji and the broken army under his command again." ”

The Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province within the jurisdiction of the former Eastern Governorate of Gaochang State are currently under the control of King Mujhid of Gaochang State, and the territory of the other three major governors of Gaochang State is not bordered by the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

Even if the army of Gaochang recaptured the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states of the former Eastern Governorate, these territories would fall into the hands of King Mujshid, and the three governors of Gaochang were unwilling to pay a heavy price, but only made wedding dresses for King Mujshid.

Pope Fico then said in a deep voice: "I hope that the three kings of the Great Wan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Sabbath Country can judge the situation, if Liu Ji is allowed to gain a firm foothold in the Western Regions, it will not only be a disaster for our Holy Fire Sect, but also for the four great powers." ”

After Shafige, the prime minister of the Dawan Kingdom, left the Holy Flame Sect, he came to the imperial palace in the Dawan City, and in a palace, he met the king of the Dawan Kingdom, Yeman.

"Your Majesty, this time the Holy Fire Sect's Pope Fei Ke invited the four countries to gather in the Holy See of the Holy Fire Sect, and it was really for the purpose of launching a holy war against that Liu Ji and his army in the Jin Kingdom." Prime Minister Shafig said to King Yeman in a respectful voice.

King Yeman nodded and asked, "Then what is the opinion of the other three kingdoms?" ”

Prime Minister Shafige said: "Back to His Majesty the King, in addition to Gaochang State, Cheshi State and Anxi State have not yet made a specific statement, Gaochang State is willing to send troops, but it asks for the recovery of the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states occupied by the Broken Army after the war, and ...... another."

"What else?" King Yeman asked eagerly.

"Your Majesty, the minister got a message from Pope Fico that there was a rebellion in the Jin Kingdom, and Liu Ji is currently leading hundreds of thousands of broken troops to counter the rebellion in the southeast region of the Jin Kingdom, and this time the counterinsurgency in the southeast region of the Jin Kingdom is very large, and the number of rebels has even reached millions, maybe Liu Ji will not be able to return to the Western Regions in a short period of time."

"Is this true?" King Yeman asked, somewhat surprised.

"It's true, Gao Changguo has confirmed the news!"

King Yeman said with a smile: "Lone was originally ready to let our Dawan Kingdom join this holy war, and this rebellion of the Jin Kingdom came at the right time, as for the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states occupied by the Broken Capture Army of the Gaochang Kingdom, Lone didn't look at it, what Lone hoped to get was the land of the Jin Kingdom!" ”

Prime Minister Sha Feige smiled and said: "Gao Changguo promised not to want the land of the Jin Kingdom, and to support our Dawan Kingdom, as well as the Cheshi Kingdom and the Sabbath Kingdom, to establish an enclave in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, as long as Liu Ji's broken army can be defeated, His Majesty's wish will definitely be realized." ”

King Yeman rubbed his hands and said, "As long as we can let the army of the Great Wan Kingdom gain a foothold in the land of the Jin Kingdom, the entire vast region of the East will open its arms to the army of our Great Wan Kingdom!" ”

At this time, Prime Minister Shafig asked King Yeman, "Your Majesty, how many troops will our Dawan Kingdom send this time?" According to Pope Fico's intentions, the spoils of this war will be distributed according to the number of troops sent by each country and the size of the merit. ”

King Yeman immediately said: "Gu is going to send six cavalry regiments and twelve infantry regiments, and then recruit 500,000 young men to serve as auxiliaries to escort grain and grass, what does the prime minister think?" ”

As the first powerful country in the Western Regions, Dawan has an extremely powerful military force, its army is mainly divided into cavalry corps and infantry corps, each cavalry corps of Dawan has about 50,000 cavalry, and each infantry corps has about 100,000 people.

At present, the standing army of Dawan includes twenty-four cavalry regiments and forty-eight infantry regiments, in addition to the various cities in Dawan country, there are also up to two million garrison troops, and the combat effectiveness of these garrison troops is relatively weak.

Dawan has been advocating martial arts for hundreds of years, and almost all the men in Dawan have learned martial arts since childhood, so if the war requires it, Dawan can even mobilize tens of millions of young and strong men to join the army.

Prime Minister Shafig heard that King Yeman was suddenly ready to use a quarter of the main force of Dawan Kingdom, and couldn't help but nod and said: "Your Majesty the King is wise, the Broken Capture Army under Liu Ji, since it can defeat the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states of Gaochang Kingdom, it shows that the combat effectiveness of the Broken Capture Army is not weak, if our Dawan Kingdom can send six cavalry legions and twelve infantry legions this time, the victory should be foolproof!" ”

On the fifth day after the last discussion between Pope Fico and the Prime Ministers of the Four Kingdoms, the Prime Minister of the Dawan Kingdom, Shafige, the Prime Minister of the Gaochang Kingdom, Mengtai Suier, the Prime Minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Prime Minister of the Rest Kingdom, Yasal, once again gathered in the Holy See of the Holy Fire Cult.

Holy Fire Sect Pope Fico asked with some emotion: "Prime Minister Shafige, Prime Minister Aham, Prime Minister Yasar, are your three countries willing to join this holy war?" ”

Os, the bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, who was beside Pope Fico, heard Pope Fico's question, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he immediately looked at Shafig, Aham and Yasar with a nervous expression.

Shafige, the prime minister of Dawan Kingdom, Aham, the prime minister of Cheshi Kingdom, and Yasar, the prime minister of Anxi, immediately looked at each other, and a trace of a smile appeared on their faces. ”

Sha Feige, the prime minister of the Great Wan Kingdom, said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Pope, our King of the Great Wan Kingdom has agreed to the Holy Wan Kingdom to join the Holy Fire Sect in this holy war, and our Great Wan Kingdom is willing to contribute to the restoration of normal order in the Western Regions." ”

When Pope Fico heard this, he couldn't help but wave his fist and shouted: "Good! That's great! With the Great Wan Kingdom joining the Holy War, it will definitely be able to completely drive that Liu Ji of the Jin Kingdom out of the Western Regions! ”

Bishop Oss of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect also said excitedly: "Finally, I can teach the people of the Jin Kingdom a good lesson!" ”

Aham, the Prime Minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, then said: "Your Majesty the Pope, Your Majesty the Kingdom of our Cheshi Kingdom has passed a letter of consent to the Cheshi Kingdom to join the Holy War through carrier pigeons, and we are also willing to make a contribution to the restoration of normal order in the Western Regions. ”

Yassar, the Prime Minister of the Sabbatical State, then said: "Your Majesty the Pope, Your Majesty the Kingdom of the Sabbatarian State has also sent a message with a carrier pigeon, expressing your willingness to join this holy war organized by the Holy Fire Cult!" ”

Originally, the top and bottom of the State of Anxi were not ready to join the Holy Fire Sect again, but when they heard that Liu Ji led troops to the southeast region of the Jin State to quell the rebellion, Gao Changguo also promised not to want the land of the Jin State, and supported the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi State and the Anxi State to establish an enclave in the territory of the Jin State.

Pope Fekohaha laughed and said: "With Dawan, Gaochang, Cheshi, and Anxib joining the holy war, the small army of the captives is no longer enough to worry about, maybe this time we can bite a piece of meat on the Jin Kingdom!" ”

Meng Taisuier, the prime minister of Gaochangguo, also said with a smile on his face at this time: "This time our four great powers are united, even if Liu Ji gets the support of the entire Jin Kingdom, he can't escape the fate of defeat, and our Gaochangguo can finally recover the lost territory and wash away the shame that Liu Ji imposed on us Gaochangguo!" ”

Pope Fico calmed down his excitement and asked the prime ministers of the four countries: "I wonder how many troops each country is going to send this time?" In addition to the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states of Gaochang that were forcibly occupied by the Broken Army, the other spoils of the holy war will be distributed by the three kingdoms of Dawan, Cheshi, and Anxi, according to the number of troops sent by the three kingdoms and the size of the merit. ”

Sha Feige, the prime minister of the Great Wan Kingdom, said loudly: "This time, our Great Wan Kingdom is ready to send six cavalry legions, twelve infantry legions and 500,000 auxiliaries, a total of two million troops!" As for the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states that Gaochang Kingdom was forcibly occupied by the Broken Army, our Dawan Kingdom agreed in principle to return the goods to their original owners, but only if Gaochang Kingdom must send enough troops to join this holy war! ”

Meng Taisuier, the prime minister of Gaochang State, immediately said: "Our King of Gaochang State is ready to send 600,000 troops directly under us to join this holy war, and will also recruit 400,000 to 600,000 troops from the three major governors of Gaochang State, and can also provide enough food and grass for the armies of the other three countries. ”

In the army of Gaochangguo, the auxiliaries who are responsible for transporting grain and grass are basically incorporated into various legions, such as a Gaochangguo army with 100,000 troops, of which almost 20,000 or 30,000 people belong to the nature of auxiliaries, but the auxiliaries in the Gaochang army, in many cases, also need to go to the battlefield.

When the Gaochang Kingdom signed the humiliating peace treaty with the Broken Army, the King of Gaochang State, Mujshid, had 750,000 troops in his hands, including a large number of recruits.

After a few months passed, the number of troops in the hands of Mujshid, the king of Gaochang State, did not increase much, only more than 900,000, but these 900,000 troops were not the same as a few months ago, and they were already quite powerful.

Hearing that Gaochang would eventually send at least one million troops to join this war, the prime ministers of the other three kingdoms all nodded with satisfaction, and Sha Feige, the prime minister of Dawan State, said with a smile: "As long as Gaochang State can send one million troops, our Dawan State will support Gaochang State to recover the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states that were forcibly occupied by the Broken Army." ”

Aham, the prime minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, followed and said: "In this case, our Cheshi Kingdom also agrees to return the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal states to the Gaochang Kingdom, and in addition, our Cheshi Kingdom will send ten legions, with a total of more than 900,000 troops, to join this holy war. ”

Among the four major powers in the Western Regions, except for the army of Dawan, the cavalry is set up as a separate legion, and the other three countries are all mixed with cavalry and infantry in a legion.

As the third powerful country in the Western Regions, Cheshi has a total of 36 legions in its country, but the strength of each legion is not the same, some legions can reach nearly 200,000 people, and some legions only have 50,000 or 60,000 people.

If the population of the oasis is large, then the troops of the Cheshi National Legion stationed in this oasis will be larger, and vice versa.

Yasar, the prime minister of the Resting Country, stroked his beard and sighed and said: "Although our Resting Country is willing to join this holy war, but our Resting Country had a border conflict with the Europa Empire not long ago, and our Resting Country has gathered 1.5 million troops on the border adjacent to the Europa Empire, so in this holy war, our Resting Kingdom can only send five legions, with a total of 500,000 troops. ”

There are a total of twenty-seven legions in the Sabbath country, and the strength of each legion is about the same, all of them are about 100,000 people.

Pope Fico clapped his hands excitedly and said, "Now the combined strength of the four countries can reach at least four million and four million, which is enough to crush the captive army!" We in the Holy Fire Cult will do our best to cooperate with this holy war! ”

Sha Feige, the prime minister of the Dawan Kingdom, said: "This time, our ultimate goal is to occupy a part of the land of the Jin Kingdom, and I think that the four of us can also recruit some troops from their respective vassal countries to strengthen our momentum!" ”

Aham, the prime minister of the Cheshi Country, nodded and said, "If we recruit the troops of those vassal countries, our Cheshi country can at least add another thirty to four hundred thousand vassal troops. ”

Yasar, the prime minister of the Sabbath Country, smiled bitterly and said, "There are not many vassal states of our Sabbath Country, but we can't recruit many troops. ”

Meng Taisuier, the prime minister of Gaochang State, said with a wry smile: "The remaining vassal states of our Gaochang Kingdom are all under the jurisdiction of the three metropolitan governors, and it seems that it is not easy to recruit the troops of these vassal countries. ”

Sha Feige, the prime minister of the Dawan Kingdom, said indifferently: "Our four countries only need to recruit some of the troops of the subject countries as much as possible, as for how much, it doesn't matter, with the troops sent by our four countries, it is enough to win this holy war!" ”
