Chapter 1049: The Death of the Kingdom 9
Chapter 1049 Martyrdom 9
And under the banner of Zhao Zi in the distant wind and snow, a military general with a white fox fur covering his whole body was also silently looking at this fortified city that caused them to die and be injured. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Today's Kannai Province is too poor and barren, and under the devastated land, there are only a few towns and large strongholds that can be used as a foothold for large armies. Therefore, in this harsh winter season, once the attack and force can not be taken, it can only lead the troops to retreat to reduce losses.
However, fortunately, the remnants of the nearby Western Army and the miscellaneous forces that have become unstable are mainly driven to climb the city before, and as the basic force under his command, they have not suffered much loss and use. It is believed that after this cruel loss, the other side will have even less confidence and strength to block and resist the control and domination of foreign armies.
In these years, the Great War between the North and the South almost involved the large and small feudal towns of the Yunzhong Provinces in the North Plains of Hexi Longyoushuo, and lost a large number of elite athletes and generals. In particular, more than a dozen Western Army armies in Kannai Province filled in the trenches almost one after another.
This gave them the opportunity to break through, suppress, subdue, and even annex and integrate the remnants of these distant feudal towns, which were far away and beyond the reach of the whip, with the momentum of rolling snow that drove straight in.
After all, the Western Army in the mouth of the Central Plains Imperial Court is essentially only a broad concept in terms of geography, in fact, it is divided into several large feudal town alliances and warrior groups according to the geographical trend, each with its own alliance leader and leader, and in the relatively cold and barren northwest, it follows the old system of the previous Tang Dynasty and has its own system.
The growth and decline of each other's forces and the evolution of the boundaries of the territory are also maintained for more than ten to decades of major changes and reshuffles; Many people's grievances and hatreds have even been involved and continued for more than a dozen generations.
And this general of the unified army is surnamed Zhao, with a single word Xi, from the "Book Yaodian" "Yun Li Baigong, Shu Ji Xianxi" reason. The meaning of "as the sun is empty" and "revitalize Zhilong" also represents the family's high hopes and expectations for him.
His ancestor came from the Zhao clan of Zhuo County in Hebei Province, and it is said that he was the remnant of Zhao Wangqian of the Western Han Dynasty.
And as Liang Gongjian pointed out that there was no enemy in the Eight Desolations, and all the foreign enemy countries were destroyed or bowed down, Taixing began to rise a wave of westward expansion; This ancestor was also able to lead his family all the way to the foot of Helan Mountain under the order of Yuanshu Shibian; In this way, it has multiplied and become a powerful local wealthy family and an important general's family.
Later, after the Yiwei Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, it decisively annexed and absorbed the nearby government system and forces, and rose to become a military regime on the side of the suppression and defense;
Then, relying on the Silk Road interests near Helan Mountain and the gathering of business travelers, it not only gathered its wealth but also obtained the benefits of its grassland bow and horse, as well as the benefits of Yanze Iron Mountain in the mountains near and far, and became more and more powerful.
After several generations of hard work and gathering strength, he successively defeated the strong neighbors of Guazhou, Shazhou, and Xizhou, and deterred and subdued the grassland princes who had several roads as vassals, and only then did he establish the prestige of his Zhao army.
But this time, Xingshi went south, but he received strong support from Anxi and Beiting, which he did not expect; In other words, the powerful promoter behind him can't wait to reintegrate the forces of the feudal towns in the northwest through the distant domain town group led by the Zhao family.
This time to attack Guannai Dao in the winter is just a preliminary test of the waters and a thorough investigation, for these southern troops who have just won the Central Plains, and their equipment, combat strength, fighting spirit, and morale are just a force probe.

Xuzhou, Roche New Garden.
"You mean, there's something wrong with Guangfu again?。。"
I looked at the mysterious creature with some surprise and brought a copy of the information myself.
"Is this a good thing or a bad thing for us?"
But in the follow-up treatment of Guangfu, an unexpected situation that was obviously not expected by the superiors,
After the armies entered Guangfu, they no longer refused to move, especially after enjoying the luxury and comfort of Guangfu, they were even more reluctant to move easily. In the words of these low-level soldiers:
"Lao Tzu has been bleeding and sweating in the north, suffering and working hard for the court for so many years,"
"Now it's so easy to settle down and rest for a while, how can there be any reason to force us to die again"
Although those middle- and low-level officers and generals did not speak out and echo them, they also expressed their stance with practical actions; They were busy dumping the looted belongings and actively buying and selling their "ownerless" houses.
Therefore, it is obvious that the same half-hearted high-level generals alone cannot drive and rally them, and then cross thousands of miles to pursue the remnants of the rebellious party.
After all kinds of internal quarrels and disputes, in the end, a temporary pursuit force was put together from among the various armies, except for half of the cavalry belonging to the front army of the imperial camp, the others were all foot soldiers with mules and horses, and the total was about 10,000 people;
After three days of grinding and grinding, I was able to simply take off the oath and set off.
Knowing this result, I was a little glad and concerned, fortunately I was not asked to participate in the counterinsurgency war in the south; Otherwise, even if I personally led the team into Guangfu City, I am afraid that I will not be completely sure that I will bring back all these soldiers who were quickly tempted and corrupted by the Huahua World.
It's like when he returned to Guangfu to rest and train after the battles of Tiannan and Anyuan, until he participated in the Northern Expedition again, hundreds of people were pulled away by various origins and relationships; In addition, there are hundreds of people who have asked to settle down in place or are unwilling to go out with the army for various reasons and reasons.
After all, after the elimination and baptism of the two tragic Northern Expeditions, the troops that set out from Kinai at the beginning were no longer human, and they were replaced by people of various origins.
My army also levies labor wherever it goes, and then a considerable part of it becomes one of the supplementary forces of the army because of its specific performance; After all, the combat effectiveness that can be maintained, as well as the prospects and pattern of development, are quite limited for an army that relies solely on the township party and regional concepts to gather.
Even in the most important regiment of my recent life, there is a rotation system of constant renewal among soldiers in different places, so as to maintain a variety of new sources of blood forever.
Therefore, once the soldiers and generals in the official army who came from poor and war-torn places were greatly opened, their resistance to this situation was almost always negative.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。
One foot deep and one foot shallow stepped on the snow all over the ground,
Zhen Wuchen was a little surprised to reminisce, when he was clearing the snow on the road today, he actually saw Lin Zhongwu, who was said to have died in battle and was posthumously presented with a prize, still standing not far in front of him, without recognizing himself who had fought side by side.
But what surprised Zhen Wuchen even more was another one next to Lin Zhongwu, who was famous in the Northern Army in the past, with three arrows to set the gate, and a series of popular deeds such as shooting geese, known as the existence of Xiao Li Guang with a white horse and silver gun;
It's just that they now look quite good chess players, and they all wear the robes of the Huai army, and they wear wide-brimmed hats and helmets wrapped with several colors of silk on their heads, and they ride horses in the middle of the road, and among the colorful weapons straddling the saddles, there are also more firearms called horse guns.
It's just that these two didn't leave just by the way, and after a short inquiry, they went straight to Zhen Wuchen's prisoner of war camp. This couldn't help but make his mood sink a little, these two wouldn't have come here to screen the identities and origins of these prisoners. (To be continued.) )
