Chapter 195: Heaven Collapses (1)

Tong Zhen brought the news of the Liao army's dispatch to He Tengxiao, who was calm as water on the surface, but deep down was turbulent.

He Tengxiao had already sensed Wanyan Shengcong's intentions, Wanyan Shengcong's ambitions were very big, and he would definitely not be limited to taking revenge on the Qin army for the defeat in the First World War. Wanyan Shengcong must have a bigger plan, and only the Central Plains can satisfy Wanyan Shengcong's appetite!

Rao guessed Wanyan Shengcong's intentions, and He Tengxiao was helpless about it

With his current strength to resist the Liao State, he can only be described by one idiom: the mantis arm is a car. The power of the individual is really a drop in the ocean in the face of a huge state apparatus.

The only thing He Tengxiao can do is to protect himself, he can only grasp the development of Changsheng Island and Zhongdao in order to protect himself.

Before Yan Shengcong started, He Tengxiao's life was still very normal and comfortable. The quality of the grassroots military attachés who came out of the crash course in the lecture hall has been greatly improved, and He Tengxiao began to evaluate these grassroots military attachés, and after the assessment, they were assigned military posts according to their results.

These military attachés at the grassroots level are very happy, and after suffering for so long, they can finally take off the "to be awarded" hat that is buckled on their heads. Become a real military attaché with real power.

For the children of civilians, even if they are military households, it is very difficult to take a step forward in their lives without a way, and the middle-level military attache of the Thousand Households Battalion does not dare to hope for it. The children of ordinary military families, who can get the position of a hundred household officials before they die, are all smoking on the ancestral grave.

He Tengxiao is not brainless, and he directly took off the hat of the hundred households to be awarded and gave the position of one hundred households. The quality of the conferral of martial arts is based on the results of the assessment. Those who have excellent results in the general flag to be awarded may also be awarded to 100 households, and those who have unsatisfactory results in 100 households may also be demoted to the post of general flag.

At this time, the western Liaoning corridor was not calm, Peng Chaodong's order to transfer troops, 20,000 Qin troops stationed in Jinzhou City, and Qin troops stationed in various places rushed to the western defense line.

Peng Chaodong's error in judgment was the biggest mistake he had made in his nearly 40-year career. It was a big taboo to hastily transfer troops before the war. Moreover, Peng Chaodong's mobilization of troops and horses was based on a wrong decision. This is even more wrong.

Peng Chaodong will soon taste the bitter fruits of his poor decision-making.

Chahar.

Liao Emperor Wanyan Shengcong's heart was very uneasy. This time was his biggest gamble, and the stake was the future fate of nearly a million people of the Manshu tribe.

This operation was the first test of the hinterland of the Great Zhao Empire, and it was also a way for further entry into the Central Plains in the future.

If this battle is fought well, the footsteps of the Manshu people will continue to move forward and forge ahead for the set goal. Conversely, if this operation fails, the price will also be heavy, and the efforts of the Liao State over the past few decades will come to naught, and the Manshu will launch a competition in the eastern Liaodong region and return to their birthplace: Changbai Mountain.

People from the Moe Gu clan and other sub-clans were all involved in the operation. Wanyan Shengcong did not even forget about the Tong people, and invited the Tong people to participate in this operation, it is obvious that the Tong people of Han blood are unwilling to participate in this war against the Han people. The Tong clan politely rejected Wan Yan Shengcong's invitation.

Wan Yan Shengcong was very angry about this. The big and small tribes outside the Saiwai have all been transferred, only this Tong clan doesn't know how to lift, but Wan Yan Shengcong doesn't have time to worry about the Tong clan, so he can only settle accounts after the autumn.

Wanyan Shengcong activated the vast war machine of the Liao Empire. This mobilization was also unprecedented, with almost all the large and small barbarians outside the Cypriots participating in this operation, and the scattered barbarians outside the Cypriots were "united" unprecedentedly.

The Jinyi Wei spies, who were mixed among the barbarians, learned of the shocking news before the Liao army moved. It's a pity that it's too late, they don't have time to send the information out, and the Liao army has already acted.

The winter of the fourteenth year of Da Zhao Zhenyuan, and the winter of the second year of Da Liao Tianxing.

Under the cover of the deep night, the 200,000 troops of the Liao State poured out, and at the same time, they were also surrounded by a rabble composed of nearly 200,000 barbarians from outside the Saiwai, known as 500,000 troops, and rushed south towards their destination.

The Zhao Empire will face the biggest external disaster in three hundred years, and this external disaster is even more serious than the siege of Jingshi City by Meng Gu during the Muzong period. The Manshu people are also more ferocious and violent than the Meng ancients.

The Liao army marched according to the original established route, the Liao army was divided into three routes, all the way to break through the Great Wall in the area of Da'ankou to Luowenyu, and Zhao contributed to the military town of Shuntianfu Zunhua immediately after advancing westward, aiming directly at Jingshi City. The army along the way was personally commanded by Wanyan Shengcong.

The other army was commanded by Wan Yan Haiya, this time it was the first time that Wan Yan Haiya led the army to fight alone, Wan Yan Haiya was very excited, and he was determined to fight this battle wonderfully. After this section of the Great Wall was broken, the army went south to capture Chaohesuo, Miyun City, Huairou City, Changping City, Yingzhou Zuotunwei and the cities north of Jingshi City, from north to south, and approached Jingshi City.

After these two armies met near Jingshi City, they joined forces to besiege Jingshi City.

The goal of the other army is different from that of Wanyan Shengcong's Wanyan Haiya army. The goal of the two armies of Wanyan Haiya and Wanyan Shengcong is very clear: Jingshi City.

And the destination of this army is not Jingshi City, but to break the border and enter Datong City, and then enter Shanxi. The commander of this army is Wan Yanying.

To a large extent, the actions of this army were in response to Qiao Shaoyuan's request.

Since the Menggu people were driven by Peng Chaodong from the Yellow River Hetao to Chahar and Mobei Menggu, the northern frontier of the empire has gained rare peace. Due to the fact that there was nothing to do in northern Xinjiang, the border defense of the northern defense line of the Great Wall in northern Xinjiang was very lax.

The battalion general of the Miyun guard, Hong Yu, was busy celebrating the birthday of Feng Bocheng, the eunuch of the prison army. When the eunuch army arrived at Emperor Taizong, there was already a precedent for the pacification of the northern frontier, because Zhao Taizong did not trust the military attaches under his command and suspected the military attachés of loyalty to him, so he sent the eunuchs who were favored by him as a supervisor on a large scale, so that he could firmly control this army.

There is nothing wrong with Emperor Taizong's move, but the empire is in a critical period. The pacification of the Northern Frontier army was crucial to the future of the empire. This army was all the belongings of Emperor Taizong, and the consequences of an accident were unimaginable. Not only did the newly established Great Zhao Empire fall, but the best outcome was simply to divide the river and rule, and the Zhao Empire retreated south of the Yangtze River.

And the Central Plains will once again be ravaged by the iron hooves of the alien race.

At the beginning of the country, there were many eunuchs who made achievements. Some eunuchs even volunteered to put on armor and inflict heavy losses on the enemy after becoming the overseers. It proves that eunuchs also have good combat effectiveness. A person who does not have (soft) eggs is no worse than someone who has soft (eggs).

This temporary practice was not abolished in time, but was inherited by later emperors. It almost became a tradition in the Zhao Empire to send favored eunuchs out to release the prison army. (To be continued.) )
