In the royal palace of Gaochang City, the capital of Gaochang Kingdom, Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, asked Prime Minister Mengtai Suier with a calm face: "How many troops of our Gaochang Kingdom still have in the province of Olun?" ”

Prime Minister Mengtai Suier sighed and said: "In the past few days, the troops withdrawn from Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province to Oren Province are only about 150,000 people, plus the 50,000 people originally deployed in Oren Province, our Gaochang army is currently almost 200,000 people in Oren Province. ”

When King Mujshid heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little painful in his heart, you must know that he only had a total of 900,000 troops in his hands, and as a result, half of them were lost in a few days, and now there are four hundred and fifty0,000 troops left in the five provinces under his command, in fact, King Mujshid also knew in his heart that if it weren't for the army of Dawan and Cheshi, they arrived in Olun Province, and the five provinces under his command would be dangerous.

Then Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier persuaded again: "Your Majesty the Kingdom, this sneak attack of the Broken Army has caused us to lose about 450,000 troops at once, which has accounted for half of the total strength of His Majesty the King. ”

Gauss Province is the capital of Gaochang Province, Gaochang City, with an area of about 1.1 million square kilometers, is the largest oasis in Gaochang Province, with a population of nearly 7 million, including Gaochang City has 49 cities.

King Mujhid then pondered for a moment and said: "Immediately order the commander of the legion, Yunus, to rectify the troops withdrawn from the provinces of Shakhtinsk, Huhesa, and Lisacus in the province of Oren, and the 50,000 defenders of the province of Oron are also under his command, and if anything happens to the province of Oron, let the commander of the army, Yunus, come to the king with his head!" ”

Prime Minister Mengtai Sui'er immediately suggested: "Your Majesty, you should also let the commander of the Yunus Legion recruit young men in the province of Oron to replenish the losses, and now in such a situation, you can't take care of farming." ”

King Mujshid nodded and said: "There are almost 1.5 million people in the province of Oren, at least 200,000 or 300,000 young men can be recruited, and in addition, the Gauss Province, the Lai Province, the Defatu Province and the Orsong Province will immediately increase the strength of the young and strong, this time the loss of 450,000 troops at once, it seems that the original plan to recruit 400,000 young and strong is not enough, try to transfer 800,000 young men from our existing five provinces to make up for the loss!" ”

Prime Minister Meng Tai Sui'er smiled bitterly and nodded helplessly, such a large-scale requisition of young people from various provinces will inevitably affect this year's grain harvest, but in order to recover the twelve provinces and twenty-eight vassal countries occupied by the Broken Army, what kind of price, Gaochang State also has to bear.

After the Western Regions Legion of the Broken Capture Army seized the Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province of the former Eastern Governor of Gaochang State with lightning speed, because the six infantry legions and 300,000 auxiliaries of the Dawan Kingdom, as well as the three legions of the Cheshi State, had arrived in the Oron Province at this time, the commander of the Western Regions Legion Lian Po ordered to stop continuing to attack the Oren Province.

According to Heishuitai's intelligence, more than one million troops from Gaochang Kingdom, Dawan Kingdom, and Cheshi Kingdom have been concentrated in the territory of Orun Province, and if the Western Regions Army continues to attack, it will inevitably turn into a bitter battle, which is not what Lian Po wants.

So Lian Po then transferred the ten newly formed infantry brigades of the Western Regions Army to Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province, and cooperated with the original brigades of the Western Regions Army to hold on to the three newly captured provinces, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from the lord Liu Ji, and then starting a decisive battle with the land forces of the four major powers in the Western Regions.

In this way, the Western Regions Legion concentrated a total of 10 cavalry brigades and 24 infantry brigades in Shakhtinsk, Huhesa and Lisakos provinces, and in the Western Regions Protectorate, the Western Regions Legion still had five infantry brigades and five newly formed cavalry brigades, and the garrison battalions of various cities in the Western Regions Protectorate added up to more than 200,000 horses.

And when Liu Ji got the good news of the Western Regions Army, Liu Ji had already entered the Western Regions Capital with a large army and was advancing towards the westernmost Jinzhou.

On the afternoon of May 1, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, in a conference room in the city lord's mansion of Teboca City, the capital of Orun Province, dozens of generals of the Gaochang Kingdom, the Dawan Kingdom and the Cheshi Kingdom gathered, as well as several representatives of the Holy Fire Sect, the bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, Os, was among these representatives of the Holy Fire Sect, and he was also the person with the highest status sent by the Holy Fire Sect to the front line this time.

The people of the Holy Fire Sect arrived at Teboka City, the capital of Oren Province, with the six infantry legions and 300,000 auxiliaries of the Dawan Kingdom.

The Bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, Os, sighed and asked Yunus, the commander of the Gaochang Legion, "Count Yunus, how many troops of the Gaochang Kingdom have been withdrawn from Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province?" ”

Legion Commander Yunus said with a gloomy face: "There are only 150,000 people, plus the 50,000 troops in the province of Oren, and I only have 200,000 troops in my hands at present. ”

At this time, Duke Fawaz, the commander of the army of Dawan Kingdom, was very embarrassed and said to the commander of the legion, Yunus: "Count Yunus, this Duke is deeply sorry for the escape of the three cavalry legions of our Dawan Kingdom without a fight, but the speed of the attack of the Broken Army is too fast, and if the three cavalry legions do not withdraw in time, they will definitely fall into the encirclement of the Broken Army, and I ask for your forgiveness." ”

Duke Fawaz is the younger brother of King Yeman of Dawan Kingdom, and the six cavalry legions and twelve infantry legions sent by Dawan this time, as well as 500,000 auxiliary soldiers to escort grain and grass, are all commanded by Duke Fawaz.

As soon as Duke Fawaz's words fell, the commanders of the three cavalry legions of the Dawan Kingdom spoke out one after another, apologizing to the commander of the Gaochang Kingdom, Yunus, and then the commander of the Cheshi Kingdom, who led the troops to evacuate Huhesa Province, also apologized to Yunus.

Legion Commander Yunus actually hated the four legion commanders of Dawan Kingdom and Cheshi Country to death, but he knew that in the next battle of the Broken Army, he would have to rely on the armies of these two countries, so he couldn't make the scene too stiff, "Alas, I can't complain about several Legion Commanders, the main reason is that we didn't expect that the Broken Army would take the initiative to attack the three provinces of our Gaochang Kingdom, it seems that the news that we are going to launch a holy war against the Broken Army this time should have been known by the Broken Army." ”

Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Dawan Kingdom, nodded and said: "This time, the momentum of the alliance of our four great powers in the Western Regions is huge, and it is normal for the broken army to know about it, but after losing Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province and Lisakos Province, the original plan of our coalition army needs to be changed." ”

According to the original plan, the armies of Dawan, Gaochang, Cheshi, and Anxi, as well as the armies of some vassal states, would assemble in the provinces of Shakhtinsk, Huhesa, and Lisakos in Gaochang, and then crush the captives all the way to the east.

Bishop Oss of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Cult said: "I think we can concentrate the armies of various countries in the province of Oren, and now the Gaochang Kingdom still has 200,000 troops in the province of Oren, plus the troops of the Dawan Kingdom and the Cheshi State, it should not be a problem to hold the province of Oren, not to mention that it seems that the army that occupies the province of Shakhtinsk, Huhesa and Lisakos does not seem to be ready to continue to attack the province of Oren." ”

After a pause, Bishop Oss continued: "According to the news from our Holy Fire Sect, Liu Ji has led a large number of troops back to the Western Regions from the southeast of the Jin Kingdom, and within ten days, Liu Ji should lead the army to the three provinces that have just been occupied by the Broken Army. ”

Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Dawan Kingdom, frowned and said: "I didn't expect Liu Ji to come back so quickly, the remaining three cavalry legions, six infantry legions, hundreds of thousands of auxiliaries and 300,000 vassal troops of our Dawan Kingdom will take at least half a month to reach the Oron Province, it seems that we can only use the various cities of the Oron Province to take the defensive for the time being." ”

Marquis Feda, the commander of the ten legions of the Cheshi Kingdom this time, was also here at this time, and he brought the two legions of the Cheshi Country to the capital of the province of Oren, Teboca.

Marquis Feida said loudly: "The seven subsequent legions of our Cheshi Country, as well as the 300,000 troops of our Cheshi Country's vassal countries, will arrive in Oren Province in a few days. ”

This time, the four major powers of the Western Regions jointly sent troops, and only the Dawan Kingdom and the Cheshi Kingdom each mobilized 300,000 troops from the subject countries, while the Gaochang Kingdom and the Anxi Kingdom did not have the troops of the subject countries to participate in this war.

Yunus, the commander of the Gaochang Kingdom, followed closely and said: "Your Majesty, the king of the Gaochang Kingdom, has issued an order to the province of Oren to requisition the young strong, and in addition to the 200,000 troops of our Gaochang Kingdom, we can mobilize 200,000 or 300,000 young people in a short period of time to help defend the city. ”

Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Great Wan Kingdom, turned his head to the Bishop of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect and asked, "Your Excellency, I wonder when the five legions of the Sabbath Kingdom will arrive in the province of Oren?" ”

Bishop Oss replied, "It may take about twenty days for the five legions of the Sabbath to reach the province of Oron. ”

Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Dawan Kingdom, nodded slowly and said, "Then after the five legions of the Sabbatical Kingdom arrive, let's study the counterattack against the Broken Army!" The next thing we need to do is to hold off the attack of the Breakers in the easternmost cities of Oren. ”

Duke Fawaz's words were approved by Yunus, the commander of the Gaochang Army, and the Marquis of Feida, the commander of the Cheshi Kingdom, so in the next period of time, the armies of the Dawan Kingdom, the Gaochang Kingdom and the Cheshi Kingdom will choose to defend instead of attack, preparing to use the advantage of defending the city to consume the strength of the Broken Army.

Bishop Oss of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect then said to the commanders of the three kingdoms: "This time, our Holy Fire Sect has sent a total of ten diamond-level Sacred Fire Guards, eighteen gold-level Holy Fire Guards, thirty silver-level Holy Fire Guards and fifty Bronze-level Holy Fire Guardians, and came to Teboca City with me and Elder Kuhiba. Specialize in sniping and killing the generals of the captive army on the battlefield to share some of the pressure for the armies of various countries. ”

Elder Kuhiba of the Holy Fire Sect was not in this meeting room at this time.

Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Great Wan Kingdom, said at this time: "Your Excellency, can you let Elder Kuhiba lead the Holy Fire Guards to find an opportunity to get rid of Liu Ji, once Liu Ji is killed, it will be a heavy blow to the morale of the Broken Army, and maybe the Broken Army will collapse." ”

Bishop Oss smiled bitterly and said: "It's not a secret, our Holy Fire Sect has assassinated Liu Ji several times before, but unfortunately they all fell short, our Holy Fire Sect's Holy Fire Guardians have suffered heavy losses, and even lost two elders, otherwise this Holy Fire Sect, our Holy Fire Sect will not only transfer one hundred and eight Holy Fire Guards, if you want to assassinate Liu Ji, it is simply too difficult, our Holy Fire Sect is really not sure." ”

In fact, the Holy Fire Sect is not only the Holy Fire Guardian has suffered heavy losses, but even the four desert horse thieves controlled by the Holy Fire Sect have also lost a large number of masters.

"What? Two elders of the Holy Fire Cult died? Duke Fawaz, the commander of the Dawan Kingdom, shouted in shock.

For the four elders of the Holy Fire Sect, they are very famous in the entire Western Regions, because every Sacred Fire Sect elder is an existence that surpasses the diamond-level Holy Fire Guard, and such a master is placed in the Dawan Kingdom, the number one power in the Western Regions, and he is also a national treasure.

Bishop Oss said gloomily: "Although this news is unacceptable, but our Holy Fire Sect's Elder Akhadi and Elder Faruza did disappear in the assassination of Liu Ji, basically there is little chance of being alive, that assassination of Liu Ji, hundreds of masters of our Holy Fire Sect were finally wiped out, and no one survived." ”

"So, Liu Ji has a lot of subordinates with strong martial arts?"

"That Liu Ji's command can be described as a master, otherwise our Holy Fire Sect's assassination of him would not have failed one after another, this time Liu Ji is under the protection of the army of the Broken Army, and it is simply difficult to assassinate Liu Ji."

Duke Fawaz, the commander of Dawan Kingdom, nodded, and then gave up the idea of sending someone to assassinate Liu Ji, and then Duke Fawaz said: "Since there are so many masters under Liu Ji's command, we must be careful to prevent Liu Ji from sending those masters to assassinate the generals of our countries." ”
