Section 25 Beacon Smoke

In the early morning of October, the weather has become a little cooler, and the sky is not yet fully bright, but somewhere on the south bank of the Maputra River is already crowded, wooden boats, rafts, and bamboo rafts of different sizes are constantly swimming out of the forks, small ditches, and culverts along the river, although they are very chaotic, but they seem to be quite quiet, and the soldiers are wearing armor and guns, and the chaotic straggler formation quickly assembles into a long line, and begins to board the rafts moored on the shore in turn.

The Maputra River is nearly half wider than normal after the rainy season, and the reeds on both sides of the river are the best place for natural hidden boats, and the reeds make a wave-like sound as far as the breeze passes. With the commander's order, the tools for crossing the river, which had been prepared for a long time, rushed out of the darkness one after another, and saw the sunlight from the past.

Seeing that the sky was about to appear white, the sweaty commander saw that the first wave of troops crossing the river was ready, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, the darkness that will be released on this day is the most lax moment for the enemy, his troops must be assembled and prepared in a short time, and then cross the wide Maputra River at the specified time, and also form a battle formation in a very short time to protect the follow-up of the follow-up troops, and finally successfully complete the task of crossing the river.

Although there are spies on the other side of the river to reconnoiter information at any time, judging from the information currently in possession, most of the enemy's men and horses have not yet realized that this will be the beginning of the Great War of the Four Kingdoms, but the battlefield is unpredictable, and no one dares to guarantee that the enemy will not appear on the other side of the river at the next moment, and if that is the case, it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe for their own side.

With the waving of the big flag, the wide river suddenly burst into waves, and countless boats and rafts of all sizes slowly moved towards the opposite bank under the powerful rowing of the oarsmen, but such a huge action did not make any other sound, only the sound of the wooden oars hitting the water.

The figure of Tacreek Kuiwei is like a statue, standing motionless on the bank, his eyes are firmly fixed on the river bank in front of him, without any expression, but a little closer observation, you can find that his face is very stiff, and his forehead shows stains of sweat, obviously due to nervousness, after all, this is a life-and-death smuggling, once the enemy is discovered, he can take advantage of the situation in front of his side that has no ability to attack to wipe out his troops on the river, of course, the premise is that the enemy must be prepared and have a considerable number of blocking forces, but from the current point of view, his side of this game is considered a success。

Thousands of sails and hundreds of boats competed for the current, presenting a magnificent scene on the vast river, but this scene did not last long, the enemy patrol on the opposite bank soon discovered the problem here, but that was already three hours later, and the troops on the south bank had already been transported in two waves, about 5,000 people had formed a team with considerable combat effectiveness, while the opposing patrol force was only a few hundred people, and it was quickly eliminated, but it was obvious that the information that the Pasha army had smuggled across the Maputra River would appear on the desk of the enemy commander.

At five o'clock in the morning of October 9, 694 in the continental calendar, Takrik, the general of the Pasha Kingdom, led more than 30,000 people of the Third Corps to smuggle in the Pompeii area in the upper reaches of the Maputra River, and after paying more than 3,000 losses, the river was successfully crossed, and in one fell swoop defeated and annihilated more than 5,000 local troops in Luzon who came to intercept it. Beginning on October 13, under the cover of Tacreek's Third Corps, the main force of the Pasha Kingdom began to force the crossing of the Maputra River from the Shizhe Ferry on a large scale, and within two days, 200,000 troops crossed the river from the south bank of the Maputra River and entered the hinterland of Luzon.

On October 15, Dayan led the first corps, the fourth corps, the fifth corps, the seventh corps, and the ninth corps of the Pasha Kingdom and the 100,000 troops of Luzon who came to intercept the famous battle of Feishui in the history of the mainland.

At the same time, the 200,000 troops of the Principality of Comini crossed the border on the night of October 8, and went straight to the territory of Luzon, and after encountering repeated resistance, they quickly invaded more than 300 kilometers of Luzon. Kluff formed a strong defensive line in the most important city in the west, Great Pine Grove, as well as two important checkpoints and fortresses nearby, Eagle's Beak Pass and Fort Thibebo, and urgently recruited 50,000 reservists to join, greatly alleviating the dangerous situation on the Western Front. Comini's 200,000-strong army was unable to conquer the city of the Great Pine Forest for a long time, but its own losses were not small, and the battle situation in the west was at a stalemate.

On October 22, the 14th and 15th Corps of the Pasha Kingdom crossed the river from Feichi in the middle reaches of the Maputra River, and due to the defeat of Feishui, the Luzon side actually had no strength to prevent the enemy's crossing, so far the Pasha army assembled on the north bank of the Maputra River has as many as 9 corps of more than 260,000 people, and formed a pincer offensive, pointing directly at the important town of southern Luzon and the second largest city in Luzon.

A huge army quickly marched in the border area between Wusun and Luzon, and judging by their dress, it should belong to the army of Wusun State, but at this time, if there is a person who knows a little about Wusun's domestic situation, he will know that this army will never belong to Wusun State, and the entire Wusun Country cannot find an infantry team with such combat effectiveness.

"Division commander, whose territory should our current position belong to?" Liang Chongxin, who was full of thoughts, rode on his horse and carefully inspected the map, while thinking about the battle, and inspected the passage of the troops with great interest.

"It doesn't matter who he belongs to, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, who will come to take care of us at this time in such a remote area? The Luzon people are already burning their butts at this time, and their eyes are all staring at the south and west, where can they still take care of this? The Wusun people are probably busy discussing with other countries how to unite to deal with the extortion of the Luope, and they have no heart to reconnoiter this neighbor of Luzon, with whom they have always gotten along very well, so our 'Wusun' army will not encounter any trouble. Liang Chongxin didn't roll his eyes, still happily looking at his rapidly advancing troops.

"Well, I think our location still belongs to Luzon, but I don't think it will be long before it will change its owner. Touching his shaggy beard under his chin, Helian Bo grinned.

"Yes, according to our marching speed, we will be able to reach Shuangduiji in three or four days, and when we get there, I will have to take a good bath, and it is really unpleasant to march for several days in a row, and I haven't even taken a comfortable bath. A hearty voice added.

"Yi Shao, isn't it a woman, can you use it so exquisitely?" Helian Bo laughed at his colleagues, making Fox Wing younger, and he was affectionately called Young Master Yi by Liang Chongxin and Helian Bo, referred to as Yi Shao.

"Boss Helian, I don't dare to compare with you, you are a bear, the more you don't take a bath, the more you can survive. Ling Fox Wing laughed and fought back.

"You said that the Lord asked us not to take any other major action after arriving at Shuangduiji, and only asked us to unite with the local people of all nationalities to establish an autonomous political axe, what is the ultimate goal?" Liang Chongxin, who had been reviewing the troops, suddenly asked a question.

"Presumably, we need to help the local supporters consolidate our rule. Ling Fox Wing replied thoughtfully.

"But the Luzon army should be dealing with the attack of the Comini now, there is no spare strength to deal with us, we can completely sweep the entire north, those local armed forces, we are not enough to fill the gaps. Helianbo retorted.

"What do you think, division commander?" Ling Huyi saw that Liang Chongxin shook his head, obviously disagreeing with the opinions of the two, and asked.

"I can't guess what the adults are thinking, but I think it must have something to do with the Komini. Liang Chongxin groaned.

"Are you saying that Lord Lee is worried that our excessive actions will affect the defensive strength of the Luzon on the Western Front?"

"It is possible that the invasion of the Corminians will be stronger than the defensive force of the Luzon in the west, and if we contain a part of the Luzon army, I am afraid that the western front of the Luzon will be in a hurry. But then we can unite the Komini and Pasha and divide up Luzon. "Helenbo was even more ambitious.

Slowly shaking his head, Liang Chongxin looked at the surging army and said: "I think your thoughts will definitely be more far-reaching, our strength may be a little weaker, after all, they are two countries, and there is an empire above us." ”

"Empire? It cares about me as a bird! This northwest country was brought down by Lord Li led by the brothers to drop a drop of blood and sweat, and when the Luope people were rampant here, those high-ranking officials and nobles in the center of the empire only knew how to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and they didn't dare to put a fart, so why should they point fingers at this time?!" As soon as he talked about the center of the empire, Helian Bo was angry, and his surname was revealed, and he used foul language.

"Helian, you are a high-ranking officer of the Empire, don't say these words in the future, and pay attention to the occasion. Although Liang Chongxin was verbally warning Helianbo, there was no reproach in his tone, and he seemed to agree with his words.

"The two division commanders, look at what Master Li means, the empire is a fast brand, and our northwest will definitely not lose it at present, as for the future, with the change of the situation, the surname Li in the northwest is still surnamed Situ, hehe, then we in the northwest have the final say. When the time comes. Lord Li just wants the northwest not to have the surname Li, I'm afraid the people won't agree, don't you say?" Ling Huyi's words were even more unscrupulous, and there was already a hidden objection.

"Yes, with the addition of the yellow robe, it is not up to Lord Li to be willing or not. As soon as Helian Bo's words came out, if there were people in the court here, they would know that the yellow robe was an allusion to the previous dynasty, and it was a rebellion.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, these things naturally have adults to worry about, our adults' minds are not comparable to our few pieces of materials, as soldiers, it is only right for us to carry out orders and fight our own battles with peace of mind. Liang Chongxin waved his hand to stop his subordinates' wild words, after all, although he also agreed with the views of the two, after all, it seemed a little inappropriate to say these words at this time.

The afterglow of the falling sun shone quietly on the hill, and under the hill was a busy scene of people shouting and neighing, tents were erected one by one, and the logistics troops had even begun to make fires for cooking, and Wu Feng's gaze crossed the shallow shallow hill under the hill, where was the border of Luzon, and there was no need to make any disguise and camouflage at this time, and a fool could see what it meant for these tens of thousands of heavily armed troops to march to the border between the two countries.

But at this time, Luzon knew that they could not make any reaction, their army was completely pinned down by the war in the south and west, and they did not think of or have any energy to care about what would happen in the far northeast.
