Chapter 908: Garrison
Chapter 908: Garrison
Now there are Rao's armies everywhere in the territory of Tianyu Kingdom, and the flames of war are spreading everywhere, mourning is everywhere, the people are struggling to survive, and a complete country is being beaten to pieces. Even if Rao's army is withdrawn from the Tianyu Kingdom now, the Tianyu Kingdom can no longer be called a country, and it is best described as a human purgatory.
In a position on the border between the Tianyu Kingdom and the Blue Kingdom, there was a Blue Army with a number of 200,000 people, and the leader was none other than Zhao Wu, who had already become famous. Zhao Wu was stationed there to defend against the Rao army that was about to invade the Blue Country, and according to the current situation, after the Rao army ensured that the rear was worry-free, it would confront Zhao Wu. Due to the large number of Rao's army, and not only one army, in order to prevent Rao's army from attacking the Blue Kingdom from the northern position, Zhao Wu was already waiting for Lin Xuanzhong and them to arrive when they could not divide their troops.
Regarding Rao Jun's style, Zhao Wu has not been able to stand it, Rao Jun is not only cruel, but also relatively inferior, and the normal army way of doing things is completely different, for the time being, Zhao Wu called Rao Jun "bandit army", which means that Rao Jun is no different from strong bandits. Because the reinforcements had not yet arrived, Zhao Wu, who was accustomed to seeing the Rao army killing innocents indiscriminately, did not send troops to interfere, and was still trying to understand the Rao army as much as possible.
The place where Zhao Wu garrisoned was close to the previous position where the Night Kingdom and the Lai Kingdom were handed over, and further southwest were two separate armies of the Lai Kingdom, one led by Xu Bufan, and the other led by another commander, each of whom led a garrison of 200,000 troops in two positions on the west border of the Blue Kingdom, to confront the Han State, a member of the other alliance. Now the situation faced by the two blue armies is not much different from the situation faced by Zhao Wu, and there is a possibility of war with the enemy army at any time.
On the other hand, the people of the anti-Luo alliance now know about the creation of the Great Blue Country. For those who have become employees, the creation of the Big Blue Country means that a number of small countries that they originally needed to solve one by one have now become a whole. In addition to the fact that there are no strong enemies in the north, there are strong enemies in the other three places, and there is no future for development in such a situation as the Great Blue Country, so they only need to try to gain benefits during the destruction of the Great Blue Country, or directly destroy the Big Blue Country by them.
There are many people in the anti-Luo Alliance, even if the current Great Blue Country doubles in size, they are also fearless, but there is a Luo Tian Great Power behind them. The anti-Luo alliance's wanton annexation of a number of small countries that had previously been subordinated to the Luo Tian Great Power was undoubtedly infringing on the territory of the Luo Tian Great Power, and with the style of the Luo Tian Great Power, even if it wanted to completely stop going south, it would erase the shame.
In terms of overall strength, Luo Tian is only stronger than them, not weaker, once the army of Luo Tian is over, the anti-Luo alliance is bound to be hit strongly, so now the attention of the anti-Luo alliance is basically on the side of Luo Tian. While Luo Tianguo was busy with the deployment of troops, they were also forming a strong army, and although they had not yet started a fight for the time being, the anti-Luo alliance would never dare to use too much strength to deal with the blue country.
It is worth mentioning that after the battle of Blue Moon Pass, after Qiu Sanjie lost to Zhao Wu, Luo Tianguo had already made up his mind to erase the existence of the Night Kingdom, because the face of the Kingdom could not be violated. However, when an army of the Luo Tian Great Power was about to send troops, an anti-Luo alliance was killed halfway, and the anti-Luo alliance directly blocked the Luo army's march to conquer the Night Country as if it had been premeditated.
After forcibly annexing some countries that had previously been subordinated to the Luo Tian Powers, the anti-Luo alliance grew in momentum, almost making the Luo Tian Powers lose face. Naturally, the style of the Luo Tian Great Power would not allow the existence of the Anti-Luo Alliance, and originally wanted to compete with the Northern Wilderness Power in the south for some territory, but now it has to transfer back the troops sent there before, and it also has to transfer troops from other places. For the Luo Tian powers, the anti-Luo alliance has become the biggest threat. For this reason, after receiving the news of the establishment of the Great Blue Country, the Luo Tian Great Power will sweep away all the resistance forces from west to east with the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops, so as long as the anti-Luo Alliance is not destroyed, the Great Blue Country will not be attacked by the Luo Tian Great Power.
As for the southern part of the Great Blue Country, those countries are busy with their own wars, and in less than a certain period of time, no country will make a move against the Great Blue Country, so it is unlikely that the Anti-Luo Alliance will use other forces to destroy the Great Blue Country, unless they do it themselves. Looking at the entire Northern Regions, a more chaotic situation is developing everywhere.
Half a month later, Lin Xuanzhong led an army of 250,000 troops into the border of the country of Qianye. Since he had heard Fang Qing and them talk about the characteristics of Fengyu City many times, Lin Xuanzhong asked the army to march from the normal route, and he took some people to Fengyu City for a walk.
Fengyu City used to be the Kyoto of the Night Kingdom, but now it has become a fief of the Imperial Family of the Purple Cloud Kingdom. Just settled in Fengyu City, those royal family members were unstable, although they occupied an old palace, but they did not win the hearts of the people. However, fortunately, some of the family forces in the city have been withdrawn, and as time goes by, the Purple Cloud King's control over this fiefdom will only become stronger.
There are many families in the city that are not all withdrawn, and some people stay to take charge of some things, when passing by the door of the mansions of those big families, Lin Xuanzhong will deliberately observe the words on the plaque, but unfortunately, even if he sees the words "Ni Mansion" and "Fang Mansion", Lin Xuanzhong can only think about the fact that Fang Qing and the others said that they would invite them to their respective families as guests.
They hadn't seen Fang Qing for a long time, and those memory fragments made Lin Xuanzhong sigh with emotion, and after walking around the city casually with some memories, Lin Xuanzhong left with the others that day.
After returning to the army, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to go to the place where he joined the army again, but unfortunately that place was in the northeast, but the army was going to the northwest border, and it didn't make sense to go with others, so he didn't go in the end.
Five days later, the army officially arrived at the northwest border of the Blue Kingdom and garrisoned more than three hundred miles away from Zhao Wu's army. Now there are two armies stationed on the northwest border of the blue country, which is enough to ensure that the northwest border of the blue country is worry-free, and the Rao army must first defeat the two blue armies if they want to enter the territory of the blue country.
When the camp was built, Lin Xuanzhong was busy adjusting his mood while waiting for news from everywhere. The spies sent out before came back one after another, bringing back all kinds of information related to the Rao army, and not long after the army arrived, Lin Xuanzhong was already clear about the movements of the Rao army.
It didn't take long for Hong Yu to train secret agents, but it had already played a big role, and while knowing the movements of Rao's army, Lin Xuanzhong and the generals had already realized the correctness of establishing an intelligence department. Of course, because of the value that those spies bring, their identities are also affirmed accordingly, and as their abilities grow, their true status in the army will become higher and higher than that of other soldiers of the same rank.
When the general above publicly rewarded those spies who brought back useful information according to Lin Xuanzhong's explanation, many soldiers were stimulated to join the intelligence department, but under the new requirements, the standard for selecting personnel was greatly improved, and it was more difficult to join the intelligence department than before, and there were still only more than 100 people in the entire department.
Of course, during the dozens of secret agents sent out before when they rushed to the Night Country, some of them encountered problems and exposed their identities and were detained by local personnel, so Lin Xuanzhong also received notices from some places, asking Lin Xuanzhong to prove whether the identities of those secret agents were true.
When those secret agents were sent out earlier, Lin Xuanzhong and Hong Yu thought of this kind of problem, so as long as the arrested person could provide the corresponding code, those local personnel would release him according to Lin Xuanzhong's wishes.
In addition, although there are some people who have successfully touched the Tianyu Kingdom, they have encountered some problems in the Tianyu Kingdom. As a secret agent, the most feared thing is naturally to be caught by enemy personnel. Once it is seized by enemy personnel as a gap, the consequences can be imagined, so Hong Yu clearly emphasized when selecting personnel that as a secret agent, even if he dies, he cannot leak any information that is unfavorable to his side, otherwise there is no need to join the intelligence department.
And now, as the leader of the entire department, according to Lin Xuanzhong's instructions, Chang Siyuan has led people to set up strongholds in various places, and obtained long-term information by settling in certain places, while Hong Yu continues to stay in the army to cultivate talents.
As for the idea of setting up a base, Lin Xuanzhong was inspired by those underground black markets, because those places have places where people from all walks of life exchange information, and it is easy to get information from there. However, they don't have any experience in setting up a base for the time being, so there may be some problems in the beginning.
In order to reduce the problems that may be encountered, Lin Xuanzhong also discussed with the generals before, and the result was that many people felt that the idea of setting up a stronghold was very good, but it was difficult to do, because there were too many unstable factors during the war, and it was quite expensive to set up a stronghold, and if you choose the wrong place, it is likely to backfire.
But if all goes well, they can avoid the difficulty of getting as much information as possible with spies, and the information they get is more accurate, and there is no reason to disapprove of it. After receiving the support of others, Lin Xuanzhong donated all the rewards given to him above for free. As a result, because of Lin Xuanzhong's encouragement, many generals generously donated a large amount of jade to help Chang Siyuan establish a stronghold.
The practice of setting up a stronghold may deplete them of both money and money, or it may bring them great benefits, and the success or failure may not be seen in a short time, and all they have to do is wait.
After secretly sending Chang Siyuan and the others away, before Rao Jun called, Lin Xuanzhong and the others wanted to find out the shortcomings of Rao Jun from the news they obtained, and on the other hand, they had to wait for Bai Shuilian to bring the troops over to converge, the current situation is quite stable, but the military affairs are a little busy. Because of the surge in numbers in a short period of time, many generals are in the adaptation stage, so they all have a lot of things to do.
And because Lin Xuanzhong deliberately retreated into the background, now Zhang Jiutian has stood up even more deservedly, and many things are solved by him without Lin Xuanzhong's consent, so Zhang Jiutian has met many generals.
