Because of the insistence of King Mujhid of Gaochang Kingdom, the generals of the three prefectures finally gave up the plan to continue to exchange space for time in the province of Goss, and the troops of the three prefectures began to march to some cities in the eastern part of the province of Goss on December 10, preparing to join the troops under the command of King Mujshid in these cities to resist the captives.

In the council hall of the city lord's mansion in Joyk City, the capital of the German and Fatu provinces, Zhang Liang said to Liu Ji: "My lord, as of December 8, that is, the day before yesterday, all the cities in the Orsong Province and the German Fatu Province have been controlled by our Broken Army, and in the process of receiving these two provinces, our Broken Army did not encounter resistance from the Gaochang Army, and it is obvious that the Gaochang Army has also taken the initiative to give up the Orsong Province and the German Fatu Province, and the people of the Gaochang Kingdom in these two provinces are also like the Orun Province, most of which were taken to the province of Gauss by the army of Gaochangguo. ”

Liu Ji nodded and said, "It seems that the army of Gaochang Kingdom is preparing to fight with our captive army in Gauss Province!" ”

Jia Xu then said: "What the lord said is extremely true, according to the information we got from Heishuitai, now the three major governors of Gaochang have each sent hundreds of thousands of troops to Gauss Province, with a total strength of nearly two million, including some elite legions of the three major governors, and under the reckless military force of Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, he also formed an army of nearly three million, of course, the combat effectiveness of the nearly three million Gaochang army is very weak, but the ants bite the elephant to death, Gao Changguo has gathered an army of nearly five million in the province of Gauss. ”

At this time, most of the civil and military generals under Liu Ji's command gathered in this council room, and the main force of the troops of the Broken Capture Army this time was currently gathered near the capital of the province of Joyk.

Liu Ji touched his chin and said: "Five million troops are indeed a lot, even if they are all newly formed troops, the combat effectiveness is not high, but the army of Gaochang Kingdom can rely on the advantages of the city wall to offset the disadvantage of weak combat effectiveness, and there are forty-nine cities in the entire Gaosi Province, if they are captured one by one, not to mention how long it will take to conquer all the forty-nine cities in the Gaosi Province, and the price paid for just capturing these forty-nine cities is not something that our army can bear. After all, five million people were evenly divided among forty-nine cities, and each city would have more than 100,000 defenders. ”

Li Ru hesitated for a moment and asked, "Could it be that the lord means that he is ready to give up the attack on Gauss Province?" ”

Liu Ji nodded and said: "In this big battle with the coalition forces of the four countries of the Western Regions, our broken army has occupied the Shakhtinsk Province, Huhesa Province, Lisakos Province, Orn Province, Orsong Province and Defatu Province of Gaochang Kingdom, and the Dawan Kingdom, Cheshi Country and Anxi Kingdom are afraid of the strength of our captive army, and have withdrawn from this war, I feel that it is better to accept it when it is good, there is no need to fight to the end with Gaochang Kingdom!" ”

After Liu Ji finished speaking, Chen Gong opened his mouth and said: "Lord, there are endless troubles after fighting snakes without dying, and now it is precisely because the Dawan Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom and the Anxi Kingdom have all withdrawn from this war, and our broken army should be even more ruthless to clean up the Gaochang Kingdom, the nearly three million troops in the hands of the King of Gaochang Country are almost all just formed, and the combat effectiveness can be described as very weak, if the King of Gaochang Kingdom Mujhid is given enough time, then even if he trains half of the three million troops, It is also a very big threat to our Broken Army, and this time our Broken Army has occupied six provinces belonging to Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, presumably once the army in the hands of the King of Gaochang Kingdom recovers its strength, he will definitely not be willing to coexist peacefully with our Broken Army! ”

Liu Ji frowned and said: "I don't care too much about the nearly three million troops in the hands of Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, but with the nearly two million troops of the three major prefectures of Gaochang Kingdom, I am worried that if we wave our troops into Gauss Province, it will bring too many casualties to our Broken Army." ”

At this time, Zhang Liang suddenly said: "Lord, why do we have to attack the province of Gauss, where our army has to attack the heavily armed Gauss Province? Now that the Orsong Province and the Defatu Province are under the control of our Broken Army, this means that the territory of our Broken Army is already adjacent to the Southern Governor and the Northern Governor of Gaochang Kingdom! ”

Liu Ji's eyes flashed, "That's right! Now that the three major governors of Gaochang have sent troops into Gauss Province, it is equivalent to standing on the opposite side of our Broken Army, and our Broken Army can completely launch an attack on the Southern Governor and the Northern Governor of Gaochang Kingdom! ”

Zhang Liang continued: "And now the three major governors of Gaochang State have sent a large number of troops to Gauss Province, which is equivalent to giving us a chance to break the army. ”

As Heishuitai's power in the Western Regions became stronger and stronger, Liu Ji also knew more and more about the situation in the Western Regions.

The Southern Governorate of Gaochang had eight provinces under its jurisdiction, with a total population of about 8 million to 9 million, not counting the 16 vassal states under the jurisdiction of the Southern Governorate, which also had a population of nearly 3 million.

The Northern Governorate of the Kingdom of Gaochang had seven provinces with a total population of about 7 million and nine vassal states, which also had a population of about 2 million.

As for the Western Governorate of Gaochang Kingdom, it also has seven provinces with a total population of about eight million, and thirteen vassal states, which have a population of about four million.

Although the Eastern Governor's Mansion of Gaochang Kingdom was claimed to be the strongest among the four major Governors, the strength of the other three Governors was actually not weak, but the other three Governors did not maintain such a large army as the Eastern Governor's Mansion before.

Liu Ji rubbed his hands and said with excitement on his face: "There is another advantage of attacking the Southern Governor's Mansion and the Northern Governor's Mansion of Gaochang Kingdom, that is, it can force the army of Gaochang Kingdom of Gauss Province to transfer to the Southern Governor's Mansion and the Northern Governor's Mansion, and maybe there will be a good opportunity to seize Gauss Province!" Let's study how to attack these two governors of Gaochang Kingdom! ”

On December 14, 428 of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Breaker Army suddenly appeared in the southern Governor of Gaochang Province and the northern Governor of Gaochang Province at the same time, and soon captured several cities in these two provinces.

In the Southern Governor's Mansion in Gliot City, the capital of the Gaochang Kingdom of Huhofoz Province, the Southern Governor of the Gaochang Kingdom, Moricktu, said to the commander of the Second Legion with a solemn face: "Nordko, I didn't expect that the Broken Army would directly launch an attack on the Okku Province of our Southern Governor's Mansion, and now there are only half of the newly built legions in the entire Okku Province, with a total strength of more than 20,000 people, and the fall of the Okku Province is inevitable!" ”

The commander of the Second Legion, Nordko, nodded solemnly and said: "Indeed, as my father said, the speed of the Broken Army is very fast, even if we send troops to the Okku Province, it will be too late, and according to the information we have obtained, the troops of the Broken Army into the Okku Province this time are at least about one million, and now in our entire Southern Governorship, only my Second Legion, Musare's Fourth Legion, and the three newly formed Legions, all of the five Legions combined, are only about 400,000 troops, Even if all five legions are gathered in the province of Okku, it will be difficult to keep the province of Okku! ”

"I have urgently summoned the First Legion, the Third Legion and the five newly formed legions of the Gauss Province to return to the Southern Governorate as soon as possible, and I have also sent a letter of request for help to His Majesty the King, hoping that our Majesty the King will send some troops to support our Southern Governorate. ”

The commander of the Second Legion, Nordko, continued: "Father, this time the army is divided into two ways, one has launched an attack on our Southern Governor's Palace, and the other has attacked the Northern Governor's Palace, in addition to asking His Majesty the King for help, we can also ask for help from His Excellency Atbac, the Governor of the West, the current situation, our three major Governors and His Majesty the King, in fact, have been tied to a rope, one is prosperous and the other is lost, I believe that His Majesty the King and His Excellency the Western Governor Abax will not stand idly by. ”

"You're right, I'll send someone to Atrakus with a carrier pigeon to ask for help, and what do you think of the next attack of the Breakers, Nordko?"

"Father, I think that the four provinces east of Ferna Province, Okku Province, Jizzak Province, Lecodo Province and Mitarki Province, are difficult to keep, after all, the strength of the Breaker Army to attack our Southern Governorate is about one million, and these four provinces do not have too many defenders to resist the Breaker Army, we had better concentrate the main force on Ferna Province, after all, Ferner Province is the most essence of our Southern Governorate, and if we hold Ferna Province, we will preserve the vitality of our Southern Governorate."

The province of Ferna covers an area of more than 400,000 square kilometers, and almost half of the population of the entire southern prefecture is concentrated in the province of Ferna.

"Alas—it seems that we can only temporarily abandon the provinces of Okku, Jizzak, Lecodo, and Mitarki, and hope that our Southern Governorate will be able to recapture these four provinces in the future!"

The army that broke into the southern governor's palace of Gaochang State was composed of the tiger army, eight cavalry brigades and fifteen infantry brigades, because the southern governor's office took the initiative to shrink its strength, so the speed of the army's army was very fast, and by the end of December, all the cities in the four provinces east of the southern governor's palace of Gaochang had all fallen into the hands of the army.

And the army that broke into the northern governor of Gaochang State, by the end of December, also captured the three provinces east of the northern governor's house, namely the Momo Province, Cedagu Province and the Mali Province, this road of the captivity army is composed of Xuanjia soldiers, tiger and leopard cavalry, white horse Congyi, eight cavalry brigades and fifteen infantry brigades, the northern governor's office of Gaochang State, also adopted the tactics of shrinking troops, Lamo Province, Cedagu Province and Mali Province can be said to have been directly abandoned by the northern governor of Gaochang State.

In the imperial palace of Gaochang City, the capital of Gaochang Kingdom, Mujshid, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, asked Prime Minister Mengtai Suier in a hoarse voice: "Where are the troops sent to the Southern Governor's Mansion and the Northern Governor's Mansion now?" ”

Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty the King, the four legions we sent to the Southern Governor's Mansion have arrived in Ferna Province together with the First Legion, the Third Army and the five newly formed legions of the Southern Governor's Mansion. ”

After a pause, Prime Minister Mengtai Suier continued: "The four legions we sent to the Northern Governor's Mansion also arrived at the Namangan Province together with the Second, Third, Sixth, and Seventh Legions of the Northern Governor's Mansion. ”

The capital of Namangan Province, Lunlis City, is the seat of the Northern Governorate of the Gaochang Kingdom, which is also the largest and most populous province of the Northern Governorate.

King Mujhid smiled bitterly and said: "The hand of the Broken Governor is too ruthless, and now not only the troops sent by the Southern Governor and the Northern Governor to the Gauss Province have all withdrawn, but also let the king take eight newly formed legions, and even the troops sent by the Western Governor to the Gauss Province have also rushed to the Southern Governor and the Northern Governor's Mansion, if the Broken Capture Army launches an attack on the Gauss Province at this time, let this king take what to resist the Broken Army!" ”

After receiving a letter of help from the Southern Governor Moriktu and the Northern Governor Erzhed, King Mujshid did not want to send a single soldier to support the Southern Governor and the Northern Governor, but under the persuasion of Prime Minister Mengtaisir, King Mujshid reluctantly agreed and sent the last eight legions to the Southern Governor and the Northern Governorate respectively.

Prime Minister Meng Tai Suier hesitated for a moment and said: "According to the intelligence, the Broken Army has invested millions of troops in the Southern Governor's Mansion and the Northern Governor's Mansion, and the Broken Prisoner Army should not have the strength to attack our Gauss Province at the same time. ”

King Mujshid nodded slowly and said: "This king knows, otherwise he would not agree to send eight legions to the Southern Governorship and the Northern Governorate respectively, but the Broken Army is not only strong in combat, but also very strong in strength, so we have to guard against the Broken Army will take the opportunity to send troops to attack the Gauss Province!" ”
