Chapter 503: Zhang Mingqi's Olive Branch

(Girls' Literature) At the same time that the southern governor of Gaochang Kingdom, Moliktu, received the withdrawal of Dawan, Cheshi, and Anxiguo from the Four-Power Alliance, the Western Governor of Gaochang Kingdom, Abax, and the Northern Governor Erzhede, also received this shocking news.

After all, in this holy war led by the Holy Fire Sect, the four major powers of the Western Regions all participated in it, even if Gao Changguo did not do his best because of the non-cooperation of the three Grand Governors, but the Great Wan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Sabbath Kingdom sent millions of elite troops.

As a result, now the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Anxi Kingdom have chosen to withdraw from this war against the Broken Army because of too great losses, you must know that the Broken Army is only a local army of the Jin State in the final analysis.

Faced with the powerful threat of the Broken Army, the three Grand Governors of Gaochang Kingdom soon reached an agreement and decided to send troops to support King Mujshid and resist the invasion of the five provinces under King Mujshid's command.

After the expansion of the three prefectures of Gaochang State in the previous period, the strength of the three prefectures of Gaochang State has increased a lot, for example, the southern prefecture of Gaochang has twelve legions, with a total strength of more than one million, and the strength of the western and northern prefectures is not weaker than that of the southern prefecture.

The Western Governor's Mansion of Gaochang State currently has fourteen legions, of which the first six legions are the old foundations of the Western Governor's Office, each of which has a strength of about 100,000, and the eight newly built legions numbered in the back, each of which has about 50,000 or 60,000 people, and the 14 legions of the entire Western Governor's Office, with a total strength of more than one million.

The Northern Governor's Mansion of Gaochang Kingdom now has only seven legions, but these seven legions are all expanded from the old foundation of the Northern Governor's Office, each legion has more than 100,000 people, and the seven legions together have nearly one million people.

On November 26, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liu Ji, who had confirmed that the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom, and the Anxi Kingdom had withdrawn from the war, led the 20 cavalry brigades and 50 infantry brigades of the Broken Army, as well as the seven elite troops of the Tiger Ben Army, the Modao Army, the Xuanjia Soldiers, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the White Horse Congyi, the Trap Camp and the Wei Wushu, from Huhesa Province to the Orun Province of Gaochang State.

The 20 cavalry brigades and 50 infantry brigades of the Broken Capture Army have all reached full strength, and the losses of the previous brigades in the battle with the Triple Alliance Army have been replenished by using the military resources transported by the Western Regions Protectorate for more than half a month.

The seven elite troops, namely the Tiger Ben Army, the Mo Sword Soldiers, the Xuanjia Soldiers, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the White Horse Congyi, the Trap Camp and the Wei Wushu, lost a total of nearly 30,000 people in the four-day fierce battle with the Three Kingdoms Alliance, but the seven elite troops still had more than 300,000 troops combined.

Liu Ji absorbed a total of more than 1.8 million soul points in the four days of fierce battles between the Broken Army and the Three Kingdoms Alliance, and now the soul value in Liu Ji's hand is close to 1.9 million points, but Liu Ji is not in a hurry to buy elite soldiers from the system mall, and supplement the Tiger Ben Army, Mo Dao Soldiers, Xuanjia Soldiers, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, White Horse Congyi, Trap Camp and Wei Wushu, with the 300,000 elite troops in his hands now, as well as the 2.8 million army of 20 cavalry brigades and 50 infantry brigades, it is enough to clean up Gao Changguo.

After the Broken Army entered the Orun Province, to Liu Ji's surprise, he did not encounter the resistance of the Gaochang Army at all, and soon Heishuitai fed back the news, the original Gaochang Army deployed in the Oren Province of the ten legions, before the Broken Army launched an attack, took the initiative to evacuate the Orun Province, the fourteen cities and hundreds of villages and towns in the Orun Province, the Broken Army was no longer defended.

Since Gao Changguo gave up the province of Olun, of course Liu Ji would not be polite, and it only took three days for the entire province of Oren to fall into the hands of the captive army.

There are a total of five provinces directly under the hands of Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, namely Gauss Province, Laiyi Province, Defatu Province, Orsong Province and Oren Province, of which Gauss Province is the location of Gaochang City, the capital of Gaochang Kingdom, and is the most elite of the five provinces, with an area of 1.1 million square kilometers and a population of nearly 7 million, including 49 cities including Gaochang City.

After King Mujshid learned that the three governors were willing to send troops, he immediately consulted with the three governors through carrier pigeons, and finally King Mujshid decided to exchange space for time, and directly gave up the province of Oren, Orsong and Defatu to the east of Gauss Province, and almost all the troops in his hands were gathered in Gauss Province, and the Lai Province west of Gauss Province was not abandoned, but there were not many troops of Gaochang State in the entire Lai Province.

After all, the armies of the three governors could not be sent immediately, and it would take some time to prepare for the battle, and it would also take a lot of time to enter the provinces under King Mujshid.

If King Mujshid does not abandon the provinces of Oren, Orsong, and Defatu, then it is likely that in the early stages of the battle with the Breakers, it is likely that King Mujshid's army will have to face the powerful Breakers alone.

Liu Ji also got the news that the three major governors of Gaochang Kingdom would send troops through Heishuitai, but Liu Ji was not even afraid of the alliance of the four major powers in the Western Regions before, not to mention the three governors of Gaochang Kingdom!

On December 8, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, the provinces of Orsong and Defatu, which Gaochang had voluntarily abandoned, were all captured by the Broken Army.

The combined area of Orun Province, Orsong Province and Defatu Province is about 400,000 square kilometers, and Oren Province has only 400,000 people left because of the grain requisition actions of the Dawan Army, the Cheshi State Army and the Anxi State Army, and the Orsong Province originally had a population of 800,000 and the Defatu Province originally had a population of 600,000.

However, after the army seized these three provinces, the three provinces together were only less than 500,000 people, and most of the population of these three provinces was taken away when the army of Gaochang retreated to Gaosi Province, especially the young and strong people of the three provinces, and most of them were forcibly incorporated into the army of Gaochang State.

On the evening of December 9, in a large hall of the imperial palace in Gaochang City, the capital of Gaochang Kingdom, King Mujshid raised his wine glass and said in a deep voice to the leading generals of the three prefectures: "The broken army that invaded our Gaochang Kingdom is about to march to the province of Gaos, and when the time comes, it will have to rely on the generals to fight bravely. ”

The reinforcements of the three governors have all entered the province of Gaoss, and they are all gathered near Gaochang City, the three governors did not personally bring the troops to come, they are still very wary of King Mujshid, in case King Mujshid ignores it, and makes a farce of what kind of wine releases military power, the three of them have no place to buy regret medicine.

This time, the Southern Governorate dispatched the First Legion, the Third Legion, and six newly formed legions, totaling 720,000 men, of which the strength of the six newly established legions had been strengthened to 70,000 before coming.

The Western Governor's Office sent the First Army, the Fifth Army, the Sixth Army and five newly formed legions, totaling 600,000 troops, and the five newly established legions of the Western Governor's Office were strengthened to about 60,000 troops.

The Northern Governorate sent the 2nd, 3rd, 6th, and 7th legions, all of which had increased to 150,000 troops before they came, for a total of 600,000 troops.

The total number of reinforcements sent by the three governors was more than 1.9 million, but King Mujshid was still not satisfied, believing that the three governors were not doing their best.

According to information received by King Mujshid, the total strength of the Breaker Army in this invasion of several provinces under his direct command exceeded 3 million.

After the expansion of the army at all costs, now King Mujshid himself has 26 legions, each legion has more than 100,000 people, and the total strength is close to 3 million, but King Mujshid has a strong lack of confidence in the 26 legions in his hands.

Oshaerli, the commander of the First Legion of the Southern Governorate, raised his glass and said to King Mujshid: "Your Majesty, this time the Broken Army invaded our Gaochang Kingdom, and the armies of our three Governor's Mansions should fight bravely to kill the enemy and resist the invasion of the Broken Army!" ”

This time, the commander of the First Legion, Oshaerli, was appointed as the commander of the Southern Governor, Moriktu, and was responsible for commanding all eight legions of the Southern Governorate.

The commander of the First Army of the Western Governor's Palace, Heyashat, followed and said: "Commander O'Sharli is right, resisting the invaders is the duty of all our Gaochang soldiers, and His Majesty the King is too polite. ”

The eight legions sent by the Western Governor's Office this time, and Heyasat was appointed as the commander by the Western Governor Atsaks.

The commander of the Second Army of the Northern Governor's Mansion, Mezirk, also nodded and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, in the matter of resisting the Broken Army, the interests of our three major Governors and His Majesty the King are the same, and the armies of our three Metropolitan Governors will also fight to the end with the Broken Army!" ”

At this time, Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier also raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Come!" Dear generals, we drink this cup to the fullest, and wish that our Gaochang Kingdom can defeat the invader of the Broken Army! ”

Tonight, King Mujshid invited the generals of the three major governorates, and some of the generals under King Mujshid and the important ministers of Gaochang State also attended the banquet, including Prime Minister Mengtai Suir and King Mujshid's confidant Yunus, who had been promoted to marquis.

After King Mujshid and many other generals and ministers had a glass of wine together, King Mujshid asked, "At present, our army of Gaochang Kingdom has gathered nearly five million troops in Gauss Province, what do you think about the next war?" ”

As soon as King Mujshid's words fell, Oshaerli, the commander of the First Legion of the Southern Governorate, suggested: "Your Majesty, the province of Gauss is the largest oasis in our Gaochang Kingdom, with a total of forty-nine cities, and the army of our three major governorates plus the twenty-six legions of His Majesty the King, although the total strength is close to five million, but there are too many new soldiers, and there are not many legions with combat effectiveness. It is easy to be broken by the Broken Army, so it is better to take the initiative to abandon some cities in the east of Gauss Province, so that our forces can be more concentrated, and second, the forces of the Broken Army can be more dispersed, so that its supply lines will become longer. ”

Marquis Yunus then frowned and said: "Commander O'Sharli, in addition to our five million troops, there are now nearly six million civilians in the entire Gauss Province, if we give up some cities in the east of Gauss Province, then what about the civilians in those cities?" According to the speed of the Breakers' march, if the defenders of our cities retreat with civilians, they will probably not be able to escape the pursuit of the Breakers! ”

Legion Commander O'Sarli shrugged his shoulders and said: "At this time, I can't take care of those civilians, anyway, the young and strong among the civilians have already joined His Majesty's army, and it doesn't matter much if some old and weak women and children are left to give to the Broken Army!" ”

Marquis Yunus immediately said in a deep voice: "Commander O'Sharli, these old and young women and children are all family members of the soldiers, once these old and weak women and children fall into the hands of the Broken Army, it will definitely affect the morale of our Gaochang army!" ”

At this time, the commander of the First Army of the Western Governor's Palace, Heyassar, said: "The morale of the army is not determined by some old and young women and children!" I agree with Commander Oshaerli's suggestion that we should abandon some of the cities in the eastern part of the province of Gauss and gather our army of nearly five million in the central and western parts of the province of Gauss! ”

The commander of the Second Army of the Northern Governor's Palace, Mezirk, continued: "I think it is better to give up some cities in the middle of the Gauss Province to the Broken Army, and then gather all the troops to more than a dozen cities in the north of the Gauss Province, anyway, the most important Gaochang City is in the north of the Gauss Province, and the Gaochang City is also the most conducive to defense, as long as the Gaochang Kingdom is held, the Broken Army will not be able to completely swallow the entire Gauss Province." ”

King Mujshid listened to the words of the generals of the three major prefectures, his face became gloomy, and he gave up the province of Oren, Orsong and Defatu to the army in vain, which had made King Mujshid very distressed, and now he had to give up dozens of cities in Gauss Province to the army in vain, King Mujshid suddenly couldn't help it, Gauss Province can be said to be the most elite of the entire Gaochang Kingdom.

"Can't go back! The entire Eastern Governor's Mansion of our Gaochang Kingdom has fallen into the hands of the Broken Army, and now the Oren Province, Orsong Province and Defatu Province are also occupied by the Broken Army, and our Gaochang Kingdom has reached the time when we can no longer take a step back, and this king has decided to fight for every inch of land in the Gauss Province and fight to the death with the Broken Army! King Mujshid said categorically.

Marquis Yunus immediately stood up and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty the King is wise, we can no longer have any retreat in Gaochang Kingdom!" ”
