"Imperial News", "Every Express", "Oriental Times" and even "Beijing Times" all published for the first time the conversation of Li Wufeng, the emperor of the Tang Empire, when he met with the new diplomatic envoys of the Kingdom of Milan, the Grand Duchy of Mahad, and the Duchy of Andako on December 19. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info In the conversation, Li Wufeng proposed for the first time that the Tang Empire would carry out the war with the hostile forces of the empire to the end, and would never tolerate the challenge of foreign hostile forces to the authority of the empire, and at the same time solemnly made it clear to the envoys of the three countries that the Tang Dynasty had no territorial ambitions and requirements for friendly relations with its neighbors on the eastern continent, including the Nanyang Alliance. The special measures adopted by the Empire for military purposes, the Empire has no territorial claims to these two places, and the original political structure of the two countries will be restored in due course, and the Nanyang Alliance and the Triple Alliance will be invited to supervise and ensure that the political structure of the two countries is restored.

Although the Triple Alliance does not need to say much, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Milan first gave a positive response on December 25, saying that the Triple Alliance will actively cooperate with the Tang Empire to eliminate the destabilizing factors in the Eastern Continent and ensure that the Eastern Continent can have a long and stable period of development after the war. Sure enough, at the same time that the diplomatic departments of the Grand Duchy of Mahad and the Principality of Andako also sent the same message, the Triple Alliance, which was conducting large-scale military exercises on the border of Milan, immediately announced that at the invitation of the Tang Empire, the Triple Alliance would join the war against Macede Khan, in order to completely solve the troublemaker in the southern part of the eastern continent. On December 26, the Triple Alliance Army officially invaded the eastern territory of Maqi Khan and engaged in a fierce battle with the Maqi Khan army, which had already taken precautions.

At the same time, the internal affairs departments and commerce departments of the three countries have also jointly issued an announcement that they will take stricter measures to crack down on smuggling by sea, strictly enforce the entry of all Japanese ships into the ports under the jurisdiction of the three countries, prohibit merchants of the three countries from trading with the Japanese people, and prohibit the ships of the three countries from going to the Japanese land and the areas controlled by the Japanese people, otherwise they will all be punished for the crime of smuggling. As soon as this order was issued, the internal affairs departments of the three countries and the maritime anti-smuggling teams immediately took action, and the navies of the three countries also actively cooperated with the anti-smuggling departments in carrying out joint operations to uproot many smuggling dens, causing heavy losses to the Japanese who had been relying on these large-scale smuggling organizations for the supply of important materials.

Although the standing army of the alliance has been fully mobilized, due to the controversy within the alliance, the army has suspended military operations after entering the border area with Daliao and Mawlamyine, on the one hand, it is worried that Datang will take further military action, and in that case, the Nanyang Alliance will have to fight for survival, and on the other hand, the Nanyang Alliance also has a glimmer of hope, hoping that Datang can make a reasonable explanation for sending troops to capture Daliao and Mawlamyine, and now all these problems are solved。 Datang was not only willing to return Daliao and Mawlamyine, but even explicitly promised to be willing to guarantee the unity and integrity of the Nanyang Alliance, although such conditions implied that the Nanyang Alliance would cut off the support of Maqi Khan at the expense, but for the Nanyang Alliance, this was still a blessing from heaven.

In the shortest possible time, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Nanyang Alliance made an official response to Wu Feng's speech, and the Nanyang Alliance was willing to develop all aspects of relations with the Tang Empire fairly on the premise of ensuring the sovereignty of the alliance, and was willing to respond to the proposal of the Tang Dynasty to cooperate with the Tang Empire with practical actions to restore peace to the Eastern Continent. As a first step, the Financial and Economic Committee of the South Seas Alliance will temporarily suspend financial aid and loans to the Mache Khanate, and the Union Commerce Committee is also considering temporarily suspending trade between the two countries.

The large-scale invasion of the Triple Alliance immediately put the Macedan in a passive situation of being caught between the east and the west, and the announcement of the suspension of financial aid and loans by the Nanyang Alliance and the subsequent temporary severance of trade between the two countries made the Macedan almost desperate, and the import and export of goods from the Macedonian Khanate almost completely relied on two trade routes to the Nanyang Alliance, and the severance of these two trade routes was almost to bring the economy of the Macedan to a standstill.

The improvement of the situation in the south has not brought much change to the situation in the north, and the heavily assembled Liboa countries cannot retreat because of the predicament of Maqi Khan, and there is no turning back from the bow.

On December 31, 701 in the Gregorian calendar, on the last day of 701, almost on three fronts, the coalition forces of the Liboa countries launched a front attack at the same time, and the war to decide who was the real king of the Eastern Continent officially broke out.

Mu Lige, who had returned from patrolling the Western Front and the Central Front, seemed to be darker, but a pair of piercing eyes showed that his mental state was at its best, and the aura of the wind and dust added a bit of killing momentum, making the imperial general full of calm and confidence in the decisive battle and thousands of miles away.

"The latest information has been passed back through the snow pigeon, this time because of the fear that the snow pigeon will get lost or have an accident halfway, all of them are passed on in the order of two pigeons, so we can ensure that the information is transmitted back as quickly as possible under absolutely safe circumstances. "Even at such a time, the intelligence staff officer can't help but want to show off the blood of the intelligence system.

"That's enough, don't mess around there, this battle is lost, and the Military Intelligence Bureau should be disbanded, what are you doing hiding it? Cui Wenxiu, who was wearing a thick cloak, interrupted the other party impatiently.

Lowering his head weakly, the intelligence staff officer hurriedly cut to the chase: "Let's talk about the Western Front first, now the Siathrow people have dispatched six corps of 420,000 horses, one of which is the Ironclad Knights of the Siathrow Empire, which is the elite of the Siathrow Empire that has never been used in the southern war, and it is said that it has been used as a strategic reserve for a long time to deal with the Baiyin people in the north, and the Baiyin people have suffered a lot of losses in this ironclad knights. In addition, these six corps also have the Nuremberg Invincible Hoplite Regiment awarded the honorary title by the Sithlo Empire, the Kurhat Gale Cavalry Regiment, and the Noaton Light Infantry Regiment. ”

"The striker is the Kurhat Gale Cavalry Regiment, which is a pure light cavalry regiment, which has always been the old rival of the Mott Rangers, who have been stationed in the western region of Heathrow for a long time, and the main task is to deal with the nomadic cavalry from the Tengger steppe, but this time the Siathrow seem to be about to abandon their western region, and with it is the Noaton Light Infantry Regiment and the Second Infantry Regiment of Siathrow and the Nuremberg Heavy Infantry Regiment, four corps with a total of 280,000 people have invaded the northern part of Yinchuan Province and are approaching the Ganlan fortress。 ”

"Huh, didn't you say that the Sithros would send an army of about 500,000 troops?" Cui Wenxiu asked rhetorically.

"Now there are only six corps that have determined the number, except for the position of the Imperial Ironclad Knights, the remaining five corps have entered the imperial border, and the Sithlo people are now stationed in the north in addition to the first corps of the Siathrow Empire, and there is only one Kulem mixed corps left, this corps has been mixed with six corps in the southern region of Sithro, and the number has also appeared, but now it does not appear in the army sequence of the southern expedition, and the scouts and intelligence departments are now making every effort to search for the whereabouts of this force。 I had never seen the coach look so serious and his tone so stern, and the intelligence staff officer secretly wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and replied a little nervously.

"Hmm? What time is it now? An army of a corps is disappearing right under your noses, and you don't even know it? Your intelligence department actually gave me this hand? Are the scouts also sleeping soundly? What is the reconnaissance department on the front line doing?!" Cui Wenxiu's tone became more and more cold, and his eyes swept over several intelligence staff officers and intelligence directors who were standing in the war room, like a whip on several people, so that everyone felt that the boss's anger was increasing sharply.

"Marshal, because the Siathrow people have already been under martial law in the southern region, it is difficult for scouts to blend in, and the intelligence department only detected that the number of the Kulem Mixed Corps appeared in the exercise team in the early stage, but it was not effectively confirmed, we have been a little negligent in this point, and we have also notified the military intelligence departments in Jiayuguan and Jiama and Fanlin areas, and asked them to help us pay attention to the whereabouts of this army, and it is estimated that the information will be transmitted back soon. ”

The intelligence director is still a person who has some responsibility, and he took the initiative to take responsibility, and the follow-up remedies are quite decent, which makes Cui Wenxiu's face look a little better, what tricks are the Sithroes playing, the Kulem Mixed Corps is also a well-known army in the Sithro Emperor [***] team, and it has also been fighting on the front line in the north for a long time, and its outstanding feature is that the mobile surname is strong, so Cui Wenxiu is very impressed by it.
