Chapter 285: Invitations
Weil led the main force to withdraw smoothly to the Sunset, and once again organized a defensive line on the north bank of the Erbuna River. [Ran^Text^Library] []
It's not that the Beichen Army and the Xia Army deliberately let go of Veil's main force, who doesn't know that if Veer's main force can be annihilated behind Els's territory now, they will be able to fully occupy the Duchy of Sunset. However, when the two sides led the army to retreat, there was no time to pursue, so let Will lead the army all the way back to the sunset.
While Weir led the army to retreat, the Xia * team had just lost one game and retreated fifty miles, waiting for reinforcements. So after getting the news that Will led the army to withdraw, Long Teng Yuye couldn't catch up if he wanted to chase it, and at that time Ville had already withdrawn overnight and for half a day. And the Beichen army was also busy occupying those weakly defended cities at that time, and after knowing that Vir was retreating, Xiao Chen also tried to let the nearest troops block the retreat of Ville's army. However, even the closest troops did not stop the retreat of the main army of Ville.
However, the two * teams were not unhappy about Ville's retreat. Since they have already run away, and they can't catch up with themselves, it is better to eat the meat in front of them. As soon as the Vir army withdrew, there was no longer a large force in the entire Els Territory. Even within the fortified city of Els, there were only 200,000 defenders. Ten days after Vir withdrew to Sunset, the Beichen Army once again occupied more than 20 cities in Elsling. After the arrival of 1 million reinforcements, the Xia * team also successfully persuaded the 200,000 defenders in Els City.
Xiao Chen was very annoyed by Xia Guo's persuasion to surrender Els City, not that he was talking about a city, but that Long Ye, this bastard, was really unkind. When he was persuaded to surrender, the envoy of the Xia Kingdom said a few words to the guards in the city according to the words of Long Teng Yuye. What is the Beichen Army's treatment of prisoners, needless to say, they must all know what it is like. Moreover, it is not certain whether the Beichen Army is willing to accept your surrender. As soon as these few words were said, the guards in the city immediately felt very reasonable. Who the fuck wants to die on the battlefield, especially these generals. I finally became a general, but I haven't had enough of my good life, and it's a pity to die.
Besides, before leaving, the king of his own family also said that as long as he held the city for ten days, then the commander of the army could make his own decisions and direct the next movement of the army. Now everyone has been holding on for more than ten days, and the reason why they have been staying in the city is because they don't know what to do. It was definitely impossible to escape, and the Xia * team was surrounded outside the city. And the Beichen Army has also been attacking the city, and the big guy can't even find a place to escape. If you can't escape, you can only think about surrendering.
Originally, many people suggested surrendering to the Beichen Army, but later it didn't feel appropriate. Although there were many foreign soldiers in the Beichen Army, who knows what kind of life they lived. There is also the fact that the Beichen Army is too ferocious, and it is said that the massacre of the surrendered army has not been done. What if you surrender and are slaughtered by the Beichen Army. Moreover, the hatred between his own army and the Beichen army is definitely greater than that of Xia Guo. You must know that before the war between the two countries began, the sun never set on the country and a flood drowned a full 2 million troops. After the war began, it seemed that the hussar general of Beichen Kingdom had been killed, and this hatred could not be eliminated at all.
It's a little better than Xia Guo, but it's not much better. The country where the sun never sets and the country of Prussia secretly united and overshadowed the Xia country, which directly led to the loss of more than one million troops in the Xia country. After that, Xia did not suffer less on the Prussian battlefield, and the loss of soldiers and horses was almost one million. The leader of all this is the king of his own country, and by the way, his own generals, also stink. The most important thing is that the Xia * team does not seem to have left the prisoners of Prussia behind.
In such a comparison between the two, the defending generals realized that everyone is now a weak player, but they have attracted the hatred of two *oss. The hatred value is not low, it is really depressing.
Fortunately, just when several of the defending generals were distressed and did not know who to surrender to. There is a messenger from the Xia * team, and the purpose of coming is to persuade the big guys to surrender. After some discussion, after receiving assurances from Xia Guo that they and others were safe, several defender generals chose to surrender to Xia Guo. It's nice to be able to save a small life now, and don't think too much about the rest.
The next day, the defending army opened the gates of Els City and officially surrendered. The Xia * team successfully took over the strongest city in the Els territory. It's just that when the leaders of the Xia Kingdom moved their eyes from Els City to the small city below, they found that the meat had almost been eaten by the Beichen Army. There are only a dozen or so cities near the Els Territory that can be eaten by the Xia Kingdom.
So, Long Teng Yuye hurriedly sent troops to seize these dozen or so cities, for fear that the Beichen army in the east would come to grab food from him. Xiao Chen also helplessly said that his claws were a little slower to stretch his claws for the Xia army's rapid occupation of more than a dozen cities.
The Xia Kingdom and the Beichen Kingdom completely divided the entire Els Territory, of which the Beichen Army occupied more than 60 cities in the middle and east of the Els Territory, while the Xia Kingdom only occupied more than 40 cities in the west and central of the Els Territory. However, the Xia Kingdom occupied the capital of the Els Lord, Els City. Such a big strong city is enough to compare with more than a dozen small cities, so no one has suffered in the division of the two families in the Els Territory.
However, on all the territories occupied by the two families, it was the Xia Kingdom that suffered a big loss. After several major battles, the Beichen Army lost about 700,000 soldiers, and now there are still 3.3 million people. And the Xia Kingdom was a bit miserable, losing nearly one million troops in the previous war with the country where the sun never sets. Then in the war with Prussia, more than 800,000 troops were lost, and together they were almost 2 million. Of course, if the Beichen Army counts the soldiers who were drowned by the great flood of the country where the sun never sets, it has already reached 2.7 million, which is much more than the loss of the Xia country.
And on the territory of the occupied Sun Never Set Country, the Xia Kingdom is far less than the cities occupied by the Beichen Kingdom. With more than 90 cities in the Xilong Territory, plus more than 60 cities in the Els Territory, and more than a dozen cities in the Gran Territory, the Beichen Army has captured more than 160 cities in the Sunless Country. And the Xia Kingdom is only on the cake of the country where the sun never sets, and it is divided into more than 40 cities. As for the cities occupied by Rizhao and Prussia, there were only more than 120 cities. Compared with the more than 180 seats in the Buni Kingdom and the Shalu Kingdom occupied by the Beichen Army, the Xia Kingdom is really self-exclaiming.
From the dispatch of troops in October last year to the current December, the Beichen Army's expansion battle has captured more than 340 cities and plundered hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of land. Counting the original domestic cities, Beichen now has 712 cities and a land area of about 370,000 square kilometers, which is finally the size of a province in real China. This expansion battle is of great significance to the Beichen Kingdom. Not only was the promotion of the principality completed in one fell swoop, but also the occupation of a wide range of land, which completely improved the long-standing land crisis in the country.
However, in this war, the Beichen army also suffered heavy losses, and the first was the loss of the army. At the time of the expedition, the army of 8 million had more than 80 military ranks. So far, there are only about 4.5 million men left in the 8 million army. Of the original 80 military-level establishments, more than 10 establishments have disappeared, and dozens of establishments are seriously understaffed. In particular, the cancellation of the establishment of the First Royal Army and the Fourth Royal Army shocked the entire Beichen Army. The remaining second, third, fifth, and sixth royal armies will also be canceled, and the news of being incorporated into the Guards and Yulin Army also makes the officers and men of the original four armies sad.
However, since Xiao Chen has already made up his mind, he will definitely not change it.
In a big battle, more than 3 million soldiers of the Beichen Army died on the battlefield, and hundreds of thousands of wounded soldiers lay on the hospital bed, which made the Beichen Army fall a lot. However, it is not so painful. Although there were no six royal armies that were originally the most elite in the country, the Beichen Army had trained millions of slightly inferior troops. The soldiers in these troops may not be as elite as the original Royal Army, but millions of elite soldiers can finally compare to a million elite soldiers in a hundred battles.
And the Xia Kingdom is a little different, the 5.5 million army went abroad, and now it has lost 1.8 million in one go, and they are all elite soldiers and horses. This battle can be regarded as making Xia Guo feel a little nerve-wracking, and the domestic pressure alone is enough for Long Teng Yuye to drink a pot. Of course, Xia Guo is not without benefits. It has also eased the pressure on land in the country, and now there is one more to add. Xia Guo, who could have been promoted to the principality a long time ago, was finally promoted two days later.
Xiao Chen sat in the City Lord's Mansion and looked at the gilded invitation in his hand. It was sent by the envoy of the Xia Kingdom, and the Xia Kingdom was about to be promoted to the Duchy. It just so happens that Chen Xiaotian, who is also a Chinese player now, the monarch of Beichen Kingdom, naturally received an invitation from Long Teng Yuye. Since Xia Guo has already sent an invitation, Xiao Chen naturally wants to go there, otherwise he won't give our Young Master Long face. Moreover, it is time for me to meet Long Dashao, although it will be a little troublesome in the future.
And Long Teng Yuye was also sitting in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion in Els City at this time, and the little official who had just returned from sending an invitation from Beichen Country under the inquirer hall: "How is it, did Chen Xiaotian accept the invitation?" "Back to the king, the monarch of Beichen Kingdom has accepted the invitation and promised to come over early tomorrow to prepare for my country's promotion ceremony!" The little official said respectfully.
Long Teng Yuye smiled and said, "Okay, you go down first!" Later go to the quartermaster's office and receive a hundred taels of silver! β
The little official was immediately overjoyed, and bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for the king's reward, and your subordinates will retire!" β
As soon as the little official stepped back, Xiang Yu, who was standing on the right side of the hall, roared and said in a loud voice: "Great King, the Beichen Kingdom took advantage of the war between our country and the country where the sun never sets, and seized so many of our cities, why do you still invite their monarch to come over!" The last general also asked the king to grant a team of soldiers and horses to recapture those dozens of cities! β
As soon as Xiang Yu said this, Long Teng Yuye's face suddenly became unsightly, and he shouted loudly: "Xiang Ji, step down!" The next time I dare to say this, this king will not spare it! β
Xiang Yu was stunned, and was about to say two more sentences, when he was hurriedly stopped by Han Xin beside him. Han Xin was stunned when he saw Xiang Yu, for fear that this stupid guy would say some nonsense again, so he hurriedly grabbed Xiang Yu. Then he whispered: "Have you forgotten about Zhuge Liang?" β
Han Xin's words immediately let Xiang Yuyan go. Zhuge Liang's incident before, no one in the entire Xia Kingdom did not know. Because of that incident, his own king still hasn't seen Zhuge Liang much. But Han Xin's words made Zhuge Liang, who had sharp ears, hear it. Zhuge Liang suddenly became angry, and he closed his eyes here to recuperate, how leisurely. Why is Xiang Yu a fool talking, and you Han Xin will be involved in me? And it's the same thing I mentioned, isn't this a slap in the face!
"Han Chongyan, what do you mean by this?" Zhuge Liang compares himself to the sages, and his vision is very high. For Han Xin, the founding hero, he is naturally a little contemptuous, and the talents of both of them are top-notch, Zhuge Liang is naturally not afraid of Han Xin.
Han Xin was stunned, knowing that what he had just said was heard by Zhuge Liang. However, Zhuge Liang, this kid, actually pointed at himself so directly in the hall, and he couldn't show weakness!
"Hmph, shameless junior, what you do should be clearer than Han!"
"Wu Kongming naturally knows that he has done wrong before, but he doesn't need you Han Xin to evaluate it! Besides, I'm also for the benefit of our Xia Kingdom! β
"Oh~ Then why did you get boarded?"
Han Xin's words almost made Zhuge Liang not come up in one breath and fainted. However, although he was not dizzy, Zhuge Liang's face became redder than Guan Yu beside him. "You Han Xin is amazing, why was you humiliated by the crotch of the dog slaughterer back then, it's really a shame for the ancestors of your Han family!"
Hearing this, Han Xin's eyes widened instantly, and the anger in his heart rushed to his brain, "Dead pig, you are looking for death!" β
Han Xin roared angrily and kicked directly towards Zhuge Liang, who was not far away. Zhuge Liang was suddenly taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Han Chongyan, the gentleman doesn't move!" β
There is no way, Zhuge Liang is also helpless, who made Han Xin's force value so much higher than himself. Han Xin mainly cultivates the art of war and martial arts, and his own cultivation of the art of war and the management of the government cannot be compared at all!
Han Xin kicked it away, thinking that he could kick Zhuge Liang away at once. But he didn't want Guan Yu beside Zhuge Liang to kick him the same way, and directly kicked Han Xin's right leg. Although Han Xin has also studied martial arts, martial arts is a minor subject, how can he compare to Guan Yu, who majored in martial arts. One was accidentally kicked in the right leg by Guan Yu, and due to the huge force impact, Han Xin's left and right did not stand firmly, and he fell directly into the hall.
When Xiang Yu saw Guan Yu make a move, he was immediately annoyed, and shouted: "The red-faced thief, you actually dare to sneak attack!" β
Later, the hall became a vegetable market. Xiang Yu and Guan Yu fought because of a little dispute, and Zhuge Liang and Han Xin kept scolding each other.
Long Teng Yuye's face immediately darkened, and Zhang Liao, Long Ji and the others in the hall also looked at the roof one by one, directly ignoring the two battle groups in the hall.
At present, the two battle groups, the big guys can't afford to mess with them at all. One is to beat people to death and not pay for their lives, and the other is to scold the dead people for not paying for their lives, no matter where they go, the brothers will be unlucky.
