Episode 38 Strategic Defense

After more than an hour of fighting, with the support of Linda and the Flying Dragon Legion, the 13th Garrison Corps successfully annihilated the Vietnamese troops stationed in Linchuan City and successfully occupied Linchuan City. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

During the occupation of this place, the Vietnamese army not only wantonly killed and plundered in the city, but also sent the mortals in the city to carry out blood sacrifices in batches, and the population of the city dropped sharply from 1.5 million in its heyday to more than 600,000 people, which can be said to be extremely miserable. Now that the people of Linchuan City have finally escaped from the devil's grasp and been liberated, the people are naturally very excited, and they are grateful to the mortal army.

People rushed to give food, food, wine, and all kinds of gifts, the girl asked herself to come up and kiss the soldiers, the children excitedly followed the procession, and the old men prayed and wept to thank the soldiers for finally ending their suffering.

Linda led the officers to wave to the people, and at the same time strictly enforced military discipline, and the army only symbolically turned around the city, and then all withdrew from the city, so as not to disturb the lives of the people in the city. At the same time, he also summoned civilian representatives to the army to discuss matters related to the reconstruction of the city, and sent a detachment of soldiers to help repair the damaged buildings in the city by the Vietnamese army and deal with various difficult and miscellaneous matters.

In the official residence of Linchuan Mansion, Lin Da was discussing matters with Zhang Ying, the head of the garrison corps, and judging from the expressions on their faces, they seemed to be in a good mood.

"General Lin, according to your instructions to advance westward, our army has been overwhelming all the way, subduing more than ten cities in a row, and now it has finally occupied Linchuan Mansion! As long as you cross the Changchuan Mountains and march for hundreds of miles, you can kill the foot of Xiangcheng in one go!" Zhang Ying reported the results to Lin Da excitedly, full of confidence.

Linda nodded and affirmed Zhang Ying's record. But he was not carried away by the recent achievements of the Fan army. The main reason why the Van army was able to advance so smoothly was because it did not encounter the main force of the Vietnamese army, and the battle that took place was not fierce.

In fact, the real main direction of the Vietnamese army is the capital of Gui Xiangcheng, which is the key area of the Vietnamese army, after the defeat of the main force of the Gui army at Tianlun Peak, the Vietnamese army almost all the main forces are concentrated outside the Xiangcheng and occupy the capital occupied by the Gui royal family, which is the real goal of the Vietnamese army.

Lin Da was very clear about this, and saw that Zhang Ying was a little proud, so he patted the young general on the shoulder and reminded kindly: "General Ying, you have to remember that we must not underestimate the Vietnamese army. This time, our army sent three garrison corps, all the way to subdue the four counties in the central and western regions, although it was very smooth, but most of the Vietnamese troops encountered were not their main force, many of these troops were ordinary low-level monks temporarily recruited from the territory of the country, and they were not very powerful opponents, so we could be so smooth. But if you encounter the main force of the Vietnamese army, then I am afraid it will be difficult to say. ”

Lin Da remembered the main battle between the two sides of Guiyue that he had seen in Tianlun Peak that day, more than 100,000 monks on both sides shot at the same time, the weapons flew in the sky, and all kinds of spell attacks were wave after wave, and the powerful attack power of the Xiuzhen army made the heavens and the earth change color, which shocked them who had just stepped into the monk team. Although later, relying on the power of guns and artillery, the Fan army defeated the Vietnamese army that attacked them several times, but there was also a premise that the Vietnamese army did not understand the details. If it really encounters the main force of the powerful Vietnamese army, it is really difficult to say whether the mortal army can remain undefeated.

However, Zhang Ying didn't think about it so much, he looked at the map hanging on the wall of the mansion chamber, and said excitedly: "General Lin, no matter what, the results we have achieved are not small! Look! This time we have occupied Linchuan Mansion, the Changchuan Mountain Range is completely under our control, plus the Liang County captured by General Tang and Schroeder before, the entire southern and southeastern Gui Kingdom is in our hands!"

Linda stared at the map with a thoughtful expression on her face. From the map, there is a narrow mountain range that extends from northeast to southwest in the northwest direction of the southern part of the country, dividing the southern and western parts of the country and part of the central part of the country, and this mountain range is one of the most important mountain ranges in the central part of the country, the Changchuan mountain range. Linchuan Province is located in the middle of the Changchuan Mountain Range.

As Zhang Ying said, after occupying the Changchuan Mountains, if the army chooses to attack, it can move westward to the Western Great Plains, reach the Tianlunfeng Mountain Range, thousands of miles away, and cut off the throat of the Vietnamese army entering Guiguo.

If they choose to go north, they can march into the three central counties of Gui, which are the richest counties in the country, which are the most central areas controlled by the royal family.

If they choose to defend, the Changchuan Mountains are a natural shield for the mortal army, and they only need to deploy a few troops in the dangerous parts of the mountain range and establish a strong position to block the invasion from the west and the center.

The Changchuan Mountains just happened to be hugged by the Xihe River that runs through the central and eastern parts of the Gui Kingdom, and within it were the three southern counties controlled by the Fan army, as well as part of the Li County including Xiaoyu County and the entire Liang County area.

There are 21 counties in Gui, and now the Fan army has monopolized the four counties in the south and southeast, the royal family occupies the eight counties in the central and northwest, the nobles occupy the five counties in the northeast and north, and the Vietnamese army occupies the four counties in the west.

Lin Da smiled bitterly and did not answer Zhang Ying's words, but looked out the window into the distance, quietly pondering.

"Gui Guo?world?"

In his opinion, the goal of the Blue Star Autonomous Group is not the place they are now controlling? They want to conquer the entire Gui Kingdom and establish a country that truly belongs to themselves! But the purpose of the founding of the country is by no means for the interests of the Autonomous League itself, but for the survival of the Autonomous League and mortals, and for the mortals in the world to fight for the right to survive under the rule of the cultivators!

In order to realize the dream of mortals to stand on their own feet and build a new world, the Xiuzhen forces are definitely the mortal enemies of the Blue Star Autonomous Group, and only by completely defeating the Xiuzhen forces, carrying out top-down reforms on the entire Xiuzhen Country, and redistributing power, can the rule of the Blue Star Autonomous Group be maintained forever.

Ever since he received Peng Zu's inheritance, Lin Da felt that he had shouldered a great mission, and he could not relax for a day if he did not fulfill Peng Zu's will and carry forward the spirit of the Blue Star Autonomous Regiment, so that his companions could enjoy freedom and happiness. On weekdays, in addition to managing military affairs, he also fights everywhere, which is to meditate and cultivate, and strive to improve his cultivation as soon as possible. And all kinds of other emotions, including family affection, love, etc., were pressed in his heart, and a strong sense of professionalism completely occupied his heart.

But in the dead of night, Lynda occasionally thinks about life on Earth, the days with family and friends, and the girlfriends she talked about before, and now these people and things are long gone, and he has been in this world for twelve years. In the past few years, many people in the Blue Star Autonomous Group have married and had children here, and even the youngest Danny has walked with Shen Jie, the granddaughter of Shen Wen, the magistrate of Xiaoyu County.

As soon as she thought of Shen Jie, Lin Da couldn't help but think of the first time she met her. As the first person in this world he came into contact with, Linda always regarded Shen Jie as his sister in his heart, and now she has walked with Danny, which is an excellent ending.

Linda smiled bitterly, she didn't expect that her contemplation just now would cause so many thoughts. "It's better to hurry up and cultivate and improve your cultivation as soon as possible! In this way, when you encounter a more powerful enemy in the future, the mortal army will not be helpless!" Lin Da thought for a while, hid all kinds of feelings in his heart, and turned around and walked towards his secret room.

Zhang Ying saw that the coach seemed to be silent, and he didn't dare to step forward to say more, and when he saw Linda leaving, he hurriedly sent him out.

In September of the 12th year of the Blue Star Army, after occupying the land of the four counties, the Fan army temporarily stopped expanding and turned to consolidate defense and production construction. The Fan army deployed a large number of troops in the Changchuan Mountains and the Xihe front line to prevent the invasion of the Four Ethnic Alliances and the Vietnamese army, and put on an all-round defensive posture.

The reason why the Fan army chose to carry out a defensive posture is, on the one hand, because the territory laid is too large, and it needs time to slowly digest and lay a solid foundation. In addition, the special operations units they secretly dispatched to the three major areas of influence also need a certain amount of time to develop their strength. As early as a year ago, the Van army divided more than 2,000 special operations troops into 20 groups and sent them to the three major areas of influence.

Each special combat team consisted of several instructors and 100 guerrilla fighters. These special combat teams quietly infiltrated various areas where mortals gathered, contacted the outstanding people among the local mortals, or launched propaganda, causing mortals to be dissatisfied and hateful towards the Xiuzhen forces, and soon developed a certain amount of power among the mortal people. In some areas, the special combat teams even relied on the arms smuggled from the areas occupied by the Blue Star Clan to form a certain mortal army and occupy several strategic points.

But after all, the strength of the Xiuzhen forces was really strong, and they quickly sensed the actions taken by Xiaoyu County in their territory. After two special operations teams deployed in the areas occupied by the Vietnamese army and the rebels were exposed, they were attacked by the two armies and almost completely wiped out, and the special operations teams in the areas occupied by the royal family were also in danger many times. Judging from reality, it will take a certain amount of time for these special combat regiments to truly make meritorious contributions.

There is another important factor in the choice of defense of the Van army, and that is that the battle between the alliance between the royal family and the Vietnamese army has entered an important juncture. Not long ago, the Fan army launched an offensive against the Four Clans Alliance in Lijun, and with the attack of the royal army, the royal family finally defeated the army of the Four Clans Alliance in Guangyuan County, and forced the Four Clans Alliance to enter a defensive posture.

After defeating the alliance of the four tribes, the royal army turned around and concentrated a large number of troops into the battle against the Vietnamese army, and repelled the Vietnamese army several times in the defense of Xiangcheng, causing heavy losses to the Vietnamese army. Naturally, the Vietnamese army could not give up, and once again gathered the troops scattered all over Gui State, preparing to launch a general attack on the target city, intending to take the capital of Gui State in one go. The decisive battle between the two sides is about to be in full swing!

It is in this situation that the Blue Star Autonomous Group Convention will secretly decide to wait for the Vietnamese army and the Gui army to fight to the death, and then decide whether to send troops to take advantage of the fisherman. Therefore, on the grounds of heavy losses in the battle with the army of the alliance of the four clans, they rejected the royal family's edict asking them to send troops to the king, and only symbolically sent a garrison corps of thousands of meters to march towards Xiangcheng, while the other main forces hurried to cultivate and prepare for war, secretly accumulating strength.

At this time, thousands of miles away in Xiangcheng, the armies of Guiyue and Yue are facing each other to the death, and the ground outside the gate of Xiangcheng has been beaten by various attacks from both sides, and it is unrecognizable and miserable. However, Xiangcheng is the capital of the Gui royal family for nearly a thousand years, even in the face of the powerful offensive of more than 100,000 Vietnamese troops, it did not show the slightest decline, firmly blocking the advance of the Vietnamese army.
