The climate in September in Romania is still sultry, although the heavy rain for several days has caused the temperature in the mountains to drop, but the sun for two consecutive days immediately turns the whole mountain into a steamer, except for the evening when the weather is slightly cooler, and even the merchants running for profit on the mountain road in Baiyuli can not be seen.

In the past, the Rosesia League has been unified under the strong purge of the Macken Khan, and has become a large province to the west of the Mackenate, and has also become a huge barrier to the west of the Mackenate, and the undulating mountains and hills have formed countless passes, passes and cols, and the mountains have been weathered for a long time and appear to be somewhat broken, making the whole of Ronnesia more like a relatively rugged plateau terrain. In the mountains, there are countless dams and small basins, while cities and market towns are mostly distributed in dams and basins. In the past, the capital of the Kingdom of Naples, the city of Rea has now become the capital of the province of Romania, and the elite 3rd, 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th, and 13th corps of the Macedian Kingdom are stationed in Ronesia.

Needless to say, both the Maqi Khan military and the political axe officials know what Ronesia means to Maqi Khan, losing Roniceia, Yuejing's flank and Anjie Province are completely exposed to the Tang people's blades, and the flat terrain of Yuejing and Anjie is of course a stage for Maqi Khan's cavalry to show their ability, but also because of the open terrain is more suitable for large-scale battles, in front of the Tang people who have an absolute advantage in the total military strength, this is also the capital they dare to fight.

Losing Ronesia, maybe the Tang people will pay some price in the Yuejing and Anjie Plains, but the Tang Dynasty, which has super military potential, is enough to drag Ma Qi Khan to death just by fighting and wearing, which Yaning knows better than anyone else, when Pu Tiancheng and Mingzhong are still fantasizing about using Yuejing and Anjie Plain to lure the Tang army into the Tang army to annihilate the Tang army's living force, Ya Ning has realized that once the Tang army invades Yuejing and gains a firm foothold, it will be the beginning of Ma Qi Khan's decline from prosperity to decline。

Therefore, Yaning has always believed that the focus of defense must be on Ronesia, and on the Yuejing side, as long as the heavy troops are placed in the city to hold on, as long as the Tang army cannot control the defensive stronghold, relying only on the infantry can not resist the impact of the wildebeest hoplites of Ma Qi Khan, even the Gaoyue hoplites they are proud of cannot hold out for too long, which is determined by the strategic position between attack and defense, so Yaning believes that if the Tang army really wants to take military action against the khanate, it will definitely be in Romania instead of Yuejing.

The Great Khan and the Minister of State, Lord Lei, have clearly voted for themselves and said that the Libea people will definitely launch an offensive against the Tang Dynasty before the end of this year, if this is the case, Yaning thinks that it is still certain to hold on to Ronescence with these six elite corps in his hands, if the Tang army really does its best, then it might as well implement the strategic retreat, shrink the peripheral fortifications, relying on the defense system in the center, if the Tang army wants to take it, then let them come, let him have any new siege weapons and equipment in the Tang army, this natural fortification is enough to make anyone stop, if it wasn't for the Lin family's own chaos, the khanate would never have taken this land so easily。

In this case, everyone can see that the existence of the Tang Dynasty has posed a huge threat to the surrounding countries, and with Li Wufeng's heart, there will never be any forces around the Tang Dynasty that threaten the dominance of the Tang Dynasty, so all parties are almost the same in terms of goals. But after all, the Liboa people are not a unified country, but only a military alliance, the army is not a unified leadership, once in a large-scale battle, whether it can be ordered and prohibited, whether it can be done to take care of the overall situation, these questions are worth studying, like this kind of fateful war, once the defeat may be irreversible, it is the slightest mistake can not come out, it is this reason that Ya Ning has been restless.

The Tang Army's actions can't be concealed from Yaning, in fact, Datang began to make adjustments as early as two months ago, first, second, The third and three most powerful legions of the Tang Empire were all mobilized to this area, which made Ya Ning secretly frightened and had to be busy strengthening precautions, it seems that the Tang Dynasty should be prepared to eradicate or weaken their own before dealing with the Liboas to ensure the safety of their rear, the Khanate has carried out military mobilization, although it has not supplemented the strength of Ronnesia, but in Anjie and Yuejing, the strength has at least doubled, especially the strength of Yuejing has increased to five corps, which is almost the same as the two-thirds of the Khanate's troops are stationed on the western and northern bordersIt seems that the Khanate is also determined to position this battle as a battle that will determine the fate of the Khanate, and to persist in this battle even if the cost is great.

All units of the army have been deployed in place, according to Yaning's idea, there is no need to entangle too much with the Tang army in the first line of defense, the area of the first line of defense is too broad, and the Tang army can choose too many attack points, even if the Khanate doubles its army, it is easy to be surrounded by the Tang army concentrated a little, rather than that, it is better to just put on a posture on the surface, as long as the Tang army launches an attack, it can kill and injure the opponent's living forces as much as possible according to the plan, but it is necessary to ensure the safe withdrawal of troops, and the concentration of troops in the central mountains can play a more effective role。

The offensive of the Tang army should have been launched in these two days, and intelligence from all sides has proved that all units of the Tang army have entered the predetermined battlefield, and the situation can be said to be on the verge of breaking out. At this time, Ya Ning made up his mind, what should come will always come, he has already taken into account all aspects that need to be considered, if the Tang army really wants to forcibly break through from Romania, he will also make them pay a painful price for it.

Yaning's judgment was indeed correct, the Second Army and the First Army had been fully spread out on the western border of Romania, and the army of more than 200,000 troops could not hide from anyone, and the army of Maqi Khan on the opposite side was also in full formation, as if they were waiting for the arrival of this battle.

On September 16, 701 in the mainland Gregorian calendar, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Empire officially sent a letter to Ma Qi Khan, demanding that Ma Qi Khan must withdraw all his troops from Anjie, Yuejing and Romania within one day, restore the sovereignty of the three places, and give the local people the right to self-determination, otherwise all the consequences will be borne by the Ma Qi Khanate. The next day, on September 17, the first and second armies of the Tang Dynasty launched a full-scale offensive from the west side of Ronnesia, and more than 200,000 troops crossed the broken mountain area and launched an attack on the three corps of the Maqi Khan, which was on the defensive, and the Maqi Khan War broke out in full force.

Gudemar reluctantly issued an order to withdraw from Laobeya, the army of Maqi Khan methodically ignited a raging fire in the pass, the flames and smoke that covered the sky shrouded Raubaya, the fifth corps has been here to block the Tang army for two days, although the Tang army's offensive was fierce, but their own corps did not disgrace the khanate, relying on the favorable terrain of the Laobeya Pass, repelled the Tang army's seven attacks in two days, although their own losses were not small, but the Tang army's casualties were heavier, Gudemar felt that this battle was worth it.

Although Gudema wanted to use the excellent terrain of this pass to block the Tang army, firstly, the Tang army's offensive was too fierce, and secondly, the most important reason, the Tang army had achieved a breakthrough in the Qianfeng Ridge on the flank, and at this point, Gudemar still had to admit that the mountain army formed by the Tang army was really powerful.

Qianfeng Ridge knows how to be steep just by listening to the name, because of the high terrain, it can be called the most sinister barrier in the mountains of Ronesia, but the Tang Army just chose the most sinister Qianfeng Ridge to break through, it is indeed a bit unexpected, although General Ya Ning has repeatedly asked to be cautious and careful, and pay attention to the situation on both flanks at any time, but the Seventh Corps is only afraid that it is still a little careless, a team of 10,000 people has been blocked by the Tang Army's breakthrough department to block the way to retreat, although Goodmar wants to send troops to support from the flanks, but he also knows that it is futile, and he has to drag his army into it, so he can only endure the pain and leave the battlefield, choose a region more suitable for blocking the Tang army to continue the operation.

Responsible for the implementation of the Qianfeng Ridge breakthrough is naturally the empire's proud second army, the mountain pillar has not been such a smooth battle for a long time, although the Qianfeng Ridge is sinister, but compared to the Great Hengduan Mountain it is nothing, although the Maqi Khan army is also stationed in the Qianfeng Ling Mountain with a small force, but for the Tang army that seems to fall from the sky, it is obviously not mentally prepared, the first division entered the army, and quickly attacked the flank after controlling the Qianfeng Ridge, and the seventh corps of Maqi Khan, which was too late to retreat, was stuck in the southern Shayue Basin, waiting for the fate of this Maqi Khan army can be imagined。

The breakthrough of the Second Army from the Thousand Wind Ridge led the progress of the entire Romanesia region, and the First Army forcibly broke through from the territory of the Peacock City-State, and after a day and a night of hard fighting, it seized the key pass to the west of the Maqi Khan City-Kelantan, which directly threatened the security of the Peacock City. The other part of the First Army was inserted from the flank, advancing from the north and driving straight in, showing an aggressive momentum, trying to encircle Peacock Villas in one bite and completely destroy the Macedhan army stationed in Peacock Villas.
