Chapter 870: War Breaks Out
Among the five-nation alliance planned by Qin Qianqiu, Qin Fengguo and Gu Song were the main forces. But the two countries are far apart, and although the army has been prepared for a long time, even if it sets off immediately and arrives at the border of Chuyunnan and Tang, it will be a month later. Western Zhou and Northern Yan were even more forced to get on the boat, and even if they made a move, they wouldn't work too hard. Therefore, the initial war could only be Wei Wuguo.
Wei Wuguo was really unambiguous, at the same time, the troops were divided into two routes, and invaded the territory of Chuyun and Southern Tang at the same time, taking the border armies of the two countries by surprise.
The border armies of both countries are not weak, especially since they have been in a state of readiness for war recently, and they should be easily defused. But what no one expected was that although the defense line was held, it was also full of dangers. Just one day of offensive and defensive battles paid an extremely heavy price.
In the past, Wei Wuguo was a powerful country, but it was harmed by Situ Xiazhen and Chu Wenting for two years, and it was already much worse than before. Not to mention going to war with two countries at the same time, even if it is only against one, it is not enough. But what everyone didn't expect was that Wei Wuguo would have such combat power.
However, there is a reason why Wei Wuguo has such combat power.
"The people of Wei Wuguo are crazy. ”
Above the Golden Hall of Chu Yunguo, Chu Shengrui took the battle report sent, and the whole person was speechless. The ministers below were also indignant and scolded one by one.
This time, Wei Wuguo not only exhausted the main force in the country, but even the standing armies in various places and most of the border troops of other defense lines were transferred. All in all, in addition to standing guard and patrolling, and being able to maintain the most basic formation of troops, Wei Wuguo was a real soldier who rose up and overwhelmed the country.
"Isn't Wei Wuguo afraid that Beiyan will take advantage of the situation? Could it be that he hid his forces and deliberately set up a maze array for us?" a minister questioned.
"No, it won't. The military department Shangshu said: "Now it can be determined that the Northern Yan Kingdom and the Wei Wu Kingdom have reached an agreement, intending to complicit in our Great Chu." The Northern Yan Iron Cavalry did enter the territory of Wei Wuguo, but did not stop halfway, but went straight to the Chu-Wei border. ”
"What do Wei Wu and Beiyan think, and when will such an agreement also be effective. ”
"That's right, if I am the commander of Beiyan, it is impossible to bear it. ”
The ministers expressed their bewilderment.
State-to-state agreements have always been fragile. Under the absolute interest, any agreement is waste paper. Wei Wuguo opened the border and let the Northern Yan army drive straight in, which was to lure the wolf into the house. Don't say they don't understand, in fact, Beiyan's commander with troops can't help it.
Just casually walking on the land of other countries, as long as he wants, he can easily put half of the current territory of Wei Wuguo into the rule of Northern Yan. Except for the officials, there are almost no serious troops to see along the way. But he was given a death order, so he had to endure it. And it has to be dragged and dragged and not too fast.
He didn't go fast, but Wei Wuguo's actions on the border were dissatisfied. It was simply a fierce attack that was not as good as the losses, and with such a rhythm of warfare, when the reinforcements from Qin Feng and Gu Song arrived, Wei Wuguo was almost abandoned. In the face of such a crazy Wei Wuguo, Chu Yunjun and his ministers were at a loss.
Under normal circumstances, Nantang should be able to provide support. But now the Southern Tang side is also fighting very hard, and because Situ Xia Zhen is not there, such a fierce battle suddenly appeared, and there is some chaos in the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Originally, Situ Xia Zhen was a powerful minister in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the emperor was a complete puppet. In such a sensitive period, it is strange that there are no internal problems.
The court meeting did not discuss a result, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, Emperor Chu Shengrui and several important ministers came to Chu Wenting together.
Although she has the name of the princess of Zhenguo and will also deal with some court affairs, Chu Wenting is very careful about proportion. As a daughter, she will never ascend to the Golden Luan Palace. If the emperor and the courtiers decided on any decree, she would not interfere casually. Only if it is not easy to deal with like this time, Chu Wenting will directly intervene. Only this time, it was also a problem for Chu Wenting.
"Let's defend with all our might. Chu Wenting said: "With the current strength at the border, it is not a big problem to hold out for a month or two. The main force of the imperial family cannot move, and it depends on the movements of the Qin Feng Kingdom and the Ancient Song Kingdom. ”
"It's tentative at the moment, but it's not a long-term solution. Chu Shengrui was worried:
"The people of Wei Wuguo are crazy, if they continue to fight like this, they will be abolished, and they will also drag us down. Once the combined forces of the Qin Feng Kingdom and the Ancient Song Kingdom arrive, plus the Northern Yan and Western Zhou Kingdoms, we will not be able to resist at all. The key is on the Southern Tang side, if they can send troops at this time, taking advantage of the emptiness in Wei Wu's country, cutting off their supplies and foundations, we can have a lot less pressure. ”
Although Chu Shengrui is unreliable in some aspects, he is still very qualified as an emperor. In addition to the frontal battlefield, more factors in fighting a war lie in logistics. As long as there is no logistical support, no matter how strong the army is, it is a waste. The border of Chu Yunguo is too long, and the troops are seriously insufficient, so they can only hope that the Southern Tang Dynasty will surprise the troops.
"Brother Huang, don't worry, I will contact Sister Situ as soon as possible......"
After some negotiations, Chu Wenting sent the imperial brother and the ministers away. A pair of beautiful eyebrows, almost twisted into a small pimple.
The sudden flames of war and the unusual actions of various countries gave Chu Wenting a headache, and at the same time, she couldn't help but think of the main task of the system.
There's no real evidence, it's just a feeling. Chu Wenting always felt that all of this was connected.
But the more there are such signs, the more she dare not accept such a task easily. Because she really couldn't imagine that she was like this before she accepted it. Once she accepts such a task, what kind of events will be on her desk.
Especially now that Zhang Nan is in retreat to heal his wounds, Situ Xia Zhen has no news, and the two people she trusts the most can't be counted on, and there is no one to discuss and speak, which makes Chu Wenting dare not accept it rashly.
"Hold on a little longer, three months, you can always hold on......" Chu Wenting secretly clenched her little fists.
Zhang Nan handed over Chu Wenting's spirit seal and the five beast general seals before the "retreat".
Chu Wenting has already selected soldiers for training, and the first batch of soldiers will be able to leave the customs in three months. Although there are only a thousand people, an army composed of a thousand Creation Realm will definitely play a decisive role. But with the current development situation, Chu Wenting is really not sure if Chu Yunguo can last that long.
If the regular army is exhausted, even if there is an invincible army of 1,000 people, it will be difficult to play much role in the face of Nuoda's territory. After all, Zhang Nan also said that those Creation Realms are not real Creation Realms, and only by forming an army can they exert their combat power. If it is dispersed, it will not play much role at all.
In just a few days, the situation has become worse and worse. Although Chu Yun's side suffered relatively large losses, it was still able to support it, but great changes had taken place on the Southern Tang side.
As the saying goes, the military situation is like fire, but Situ Xiazhen, as the supreme commander, has not shown up for a long time, and the news of the ambush in Xianyang City has come back, many people think that Situ Xiazhen is dead. Within the Southern Tang Dynasty, civil strife had already begun. The faction loyal to the royal family, as well as the faction loyal to Situ Xiazhen, is inextricably linked.
The border of the Southern Tang Dynasty had long been lost, and the Wei Wu army attacked in one fell swoop, subduing the lost territory with the momentum of destroying the ancient and decaying. The army of the Southern Tang Dynasty has been trained in the past two years, and it is not weak, but now it is a mess and cannot exert its combat power at all. In the face of Wei Wuguo's army, he fled without even fighting.
This situation continues, and after three months, I am afraid that after a month, Nantang will collapse. With the arrival of the armies of Qin Feng Kingdom and the Ancient Song Kingdom, Chu Yun was also unable to escape.
And just when it was a pot of porridge outside, Zhang Nan's side made unexpected progress.
It's not that Situ Xiazhen's poison is fine, but that Zhang Nan suddenly made an unexpected discovery. Lin Qingqing and Nalan Zishuang, who had been locked up in the system, were released by Zhang Nan.
