Chapter 781: Expedition

In the early morning of the next day, Lin gathered his army at four o'clock and once again divided his troops from Gancheng to attack on the east and west. "Words*Love*First*Hair[No pop-ups, the page is clean, just read the book.dashubao.cc]

And this time, their goal is no longer one or two cities, but they plan to recover all the cities along the route that are close to 20,000 miles.

This is an expedition, even if Mu Zheping is not there, Lin Si will still fight.

Sooner or later, Southern Qi would come to reinforcements, and in the face of the new Southern Qi army, Lin Si would not let himself have 200,000 enemies left in his rear.

But if there was no Mu Zheping, even if he divided his troops into two routes, he would not risk letting the rest of the people lead his troops all the way to the Northwest Theater, after all, there were still heavy troops from the Southern Qi Dynasty there.

The specific arrangements for the division of troops this time made the generals of the Inner Army somewhat incomprehensible.

The army within 150,000 was divided into three parts by Lin Si.

10,000 people stayed in Gancheng, and 80,000 people attacked to the west, and the leading general was Limu. As for the last 60,000 people, Lin Si led the army all the way east.

And the 4,000 people of the Beigu clan were also divided into two, 2,000 people followed Limu, and 2,000 people followed Lin Si.

This arrangement, originally nothing.

Although the troops on Lin Si's side were relatively weak, everyone had already been convinced of Lin Si's command level.

Even if he only brought 30,000 people, everyone would still have confidence in him.

But in terms of senior generals, Lin Si was a little incomprehensible to everyone.

Fan Xing, Jiang Qi, Yu Xun and other more than ten senior generals of the Inner Army were all taken by Lin Si. In addition, even Jia Rong, Xue Chen, Tan Xiu and others are no exception.

As for the other way, the Western Route Army where Li Mu was located, there were only a few generals above the fourth rank such as Mu Zheping, Ye Hong, and Nie He, and the rest were middle-level officers.

At this time, in the eyes of the generals of the Internal Army, Li Mu is the two real senior generals of Li Mu and Ye Hong. As for Mu Zheping and Nie He, they were just two powerful cultivators in their eyes.

Only Li Mu and Ye Hong understood the intention of Lin Si's move, and the senior generals of the Western Route Army were all transferred by Lin Si. Just so that Mu Zheping can control this team of people as quickly and unhindered as possible.

Li Mu, the general of the Fu army, reported on his work in the royal capital Xiancheng in previous years, and he had very little experience in commanding troops on the border, and he did not have any outstanding achievements.

Although his military rank is very high, both Lin Si and himself know very well that his ability to lead troops is actually relatively ordinary.

And on the other hand. Maybe he has been in the military headquarters of Xiancheng for too long, and he is well versed in the eight-sided exquisite set of officialdom. Otherwise, you wouldn't be where you are now.

This person is not a general who can fight in battle, but he was sent by Yueshan as Lin Si's number one helper in the army. The reason for this is very simple, he is a smart person, he knows what he does to satisfy Moonsan, and he knows what not to do.

Yueshan sent him, not to ask him to give advice to Lin Si, to lead Lin Si and even to teach Lin Si, but to let him support Lin Si.

Limu knew exactly what he had to do.

Previously, Lin Si asked him to stay in the lockdown and let him send troops to Luanshan. These orders are incomprehensible until the results of the battle are known. However, Li Mu, who was not inferior to Lin Si in rank, never objected, and he faithfully carried out Lin Si's orders.

He didn't care about the outcome of the war, nor did he care about the merits and military power. All he wants is for the future Moon King, His Majesty, to be satisfied with himself.

And in fact, even though Lin Si knew that his level of fighting was not high, he would definitely not treat him badly in the future.

In a sense, Li Mu's vision is countless times longer than that of Song Zhenhai and others.

Before this time to send troops. Lin Si had already explained to him in advance, and he knew what to do in the future.

Give Mu Zheping and Ye Hong enough opportunities to perform, so that the middle and lower-level officers and non-commissioned officers can trust them and obey them.

As for Mu Zheping's commanding ability, he didn't know, and he didn't plan to explore it.

In Lin Si's plan. When Mu Zheping fights all the way to the edge of the Northwest Theater and completes this expedition of tens of thousands of miles, he will have a very high prestige in the eyes of these 80,000 people.

These two expeditions went very smoothly in the early stages.

On the first day alone, Lin Si had already broken through the four cities in a row, striking 1,500 miles to the east. Along the way, the Southern Qi defenders in the cities along the route were simply crushed.

This is a very normal thing. Now there are only 200,000 people left in the Southern Qi army in the middle lane.

These armies are too scattered, and the defenders in each city are only a few thousand, and the few are only a few hundred, how can they stop Lin Si's 60,000 people

Along the way, Lin Si and the others barely experienced any decent battles, and they completely crossed the city and recovered.

He didn't leave any men to guard the cities, because there weren't that many men.

The next day, Lin Si simply directly divided the only 60,000 troops into three routes. Fan Xing had 20,000 people all the way, Jiang Qi Yuxun had 20,000 people all the way, and 1,000 Beigu people had joined each way, and as for the last road, it was 20,000 people from Lin Si himself.

The three parallel roads swept all the way to the east at the same time, and the Southern Qi defenders in the cities along the route almost fled.

As for the Western Front, Mu Zheping's progress was also smooth.

With the support of Li Mu, he also divided the army of 90,000 into three routes, Ye Hong, Li Mu and himself each led one way, and there was no obstacle along the way.

By the time the third day, the armies of the two routes had marched four or five thousand miles to both sides, and no less than fifty cities had been recovered, and the entire northern occupation area was in great shape.

Although many cities were recovered, they did not annihilate many Southern Qi troops, and the total number of Southern Qi troops who have died in the hands of the two expeditionary forces is less than 20,000.

Especially after the next day, they never encountered any resistance again, and the Nanqi people seemed to have been completely beaten to the point of losing their courage.

But Lin Mu and the others knew very well that these two expeditions could not go on so smoothly forever.

Although the Southern Qi army in the north is sparsely distributed, there are 200,000 people in the end, and their strength is actually above the inner army.

Now they are sweeping in both directions, and they can hardly touch a single Southern Qi soldier, and the reason is self-evident, these scattered Southern Qi troops are already beginning to gather.

They will inevitably give their own side a head-on attack somewhere ahead.

In Lin Si's original plan, these Southern Qi troops were not to be worried, because the army of the Moon Kingdom was already more than 150,000 internal armies.

There are also nearly 350,000 Northern Army, in addition to the 200,000 taken away by Song Zhenhai and the remaining 150,000 after the First World War in Guangcheng, there are still 200,000 people in the Northern Army who have not been put into the frontline battlefield.

They had been guarding the border towns in the occupied areas of the Southern Qi Dynasty.

Now that Lin Mu's two-way expeditionary force has quickly recovered a large area of territory, which is no longer a border, these northern armies can go directly out of the city and go north.

With the addition of these 200,000 northern troops, no matter how the Southern Qi people stirred, they couldn't make any waves.

Before Lin Si set out on the expedition, he had already sent people to give orders to the generals of the Northern Army in the cities along the route to go north.

however

It was now the third day, and of the nearly 100,000 Northern Army stationed on the Eastern Front, only 60,000 had followed the order and came to Taicheng, where he was now, to join him.

As for the other 40,000 people, they still stood still. And their reasons are also surprisingly consistent, the Southern Qi army in the north has not been completely wiped out, and the army must not act rashly, otherwise once the Southern Qi people go south, the hinterland of the Moon Kingdom will be devastated.

"Heh, Song Zhenhai is really leaky, he already thought that I would dispatch these 200,000 people. For this qiē, Lin Si is completely insightful.

How could he not see that the 200,000 army must have been informed by Song Zhenhai in advance.

Otherwise, how dare the rest of them disobey the orders of their own commander

What army should not act rashly, if the people of Southern Qi enter the hinterland of the Moon Country now, it will be completely looking for death. The hinterland of the Moon Kingdom is not without resistance, and when the time comes, Lin Si will return them to the north, and where can the Southern Qi people flee to

This is just an excuse that Song Zhenhai taught them in advance.

The real reason is that they are more willing to listen to Song Zhenhai than to listen to their own coach. To be continued.
