CHAPTER XXXIV
() Kefield, granary.
"The head of the family, there are about two million catties of grain here. That Bramitch kid doesn't need so much military rations, and burns, kills, and loots along the way, he's a bastard!" Lang Zhong said angrily.
"It's not that he doesn't want to use it, it's that he doesn't dare to use it. If you think about it, he was a traitor to Feng Xiang at that time, and these grains were his last supplies. How could he be willing to use it until he had to?" Tang Xu on the side explained.
"Yes, I want to use it too! It's a pity that I can't use it now!" Li Yuxuan said with emotion.
"Why can't we use it, aren't we short of food?" Li Yuyang looked puzzled.
"Because these grains are going to be reserved for Sun Jingyu!" Li Yuxuan said meaningfully.
"What! leave it to Sun Jingyu?" Tang Xu and the three of them exclaimed at the same time, it seemed that after working together for a period of time, the three of them also had a considerable tacit understanding.
Li Yuxuan nodded and said:
"Yes! It's for Sun Jingyu. It was ordered that the troops not take a single grain from the granary. At the same time, the troops were ordered to prepare for the evacuation of Kefield. ”
This strange order again!
However, this time, Tang Xu and the three of them also learned to be obedient, no longer raised any objections, and each dispersed to do things separately.
Since the head of the family has such an order, he also has his own reasons.
Tang Xu's thoughts are always wandering around one name, that is, "Zhuan Sun Jingyu".
After learning that the 3,000 cavalry of the "homeland" had captured Kefield, Sun Jingyu was furious. I didn't expect to be in a hurry, or a step slower. Since the other party has already taken Kefield, he must be guarding the city and waiting for reinforcements. As soon as the reinforcements arrived, his 20,000 tired soldiers would deal with Li Yuxuan's main force waiting for work in Kefield City, and the number of victories and defeats would be unpredictable. Therefore, Sun Jingyu ordered the army to stay on the border between Fengxiang and the former Carol Kingdom, wanting to decide his next move after further figuring out the reality of the "homeland".
Two days later, the news brought back by the scout in front made Sun Jingyu extremely happy.
After the capture of Kefield, the 3,000 cavalry of the "homeland" have not yet arrived in the city with reinforcements. At the same time, he heard "crucial" news from the scouts that the "homeland" now stationed in Kefield was loading a large amount of grain into trucks, as if it was ready to move it elsewhere.
Sun Jingyu filtered all the details of the entire battlefield in his own mind, and came to a conclusion that he thought was correct, that is, the whole conclusion ultimately led to his future defeat.
The reason why the "homeland" did not dare to move south after capturing Miro and Cole, and because of its slow movement in the process of moving south after that, was due to the fear of the return of Bramic's army. After the Bramitch Legion was wiped out by itself, the "Home" immediately rushed to Kefield in the starry night. After capturing the city, he did not make any preparations to defend the city, but loaded the grain in the granary into trucks to prepare for transportation north. All this illustrates the fact that the target of the "homeland" is not the city of Kefield, but the military rations left behind by the Bramitch Legion. The fundamental reason why the "homeland" has such a series of actions that violate military common sense is the weakness of its military strength. First they were afraid of the return of the Bramic army, and now they were afraid of their own siege, except for that raid, they had not fought a real battle with Feng Xiang's army so far.
After figuring out these points, Sun Jingyu began to feel proud. He is full of confidence in the military power in his hands, and is convinced that he is superior to the "homeland" in terms of the comparison of forces, and it can be said that the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides are very obvious.
When the "homeland" fought Rimmel in Atbury, his strength was only about 5,000, and even if his strength has doubled now, it is only more than 10,000 people, which is only half of his own. And now that there are 7,000 ironclad infantry in his rear to ensure his logistics supply, if Li Yuxuan wants to use the method of dealing with Remel to deal with himself, it will definitely be an egg and a stone, and the end is self-evident.
Sun Jingyu seemed to have seen the goddess of victory smiling at her. As long as he defeats Li Yuxuan of the "homeland" again. Then he will become the second Feng Shaojun in the military circle of the entire Fengxiang Kingdom. Moreover, I have always had a very good relationship with Jiang He's elders, and now Feng Xiang is still vacant in the position of military affairs secretary.
Feng Shaojun, Feng Shaojun, you have always been incompatible with me, this time I will not only rob you of your position, but also cut down your Feng clan to the roots.
Sun Jingyu was already imagining that he would move his army eastward after defeating Li Yuxuan, and take advantage of the situation to flank the First Army of Feng Tianyang. At that time, with the record of these three battles and three victories, looking at the entire Fengxiang, who is qualified to compete with me for the position of military affairs secretary.
On the same day, Sun Jingyu's Fourth Army crossed the border of Fengxiang and advanced towards Kefield.
History is truly an amazing coincidence.
More than half a year ago, Feng Shaojun also attacked the Carol Kingdom through this road, but in the end he did not fulfill his "wish". What will happen to the current Sun Jingyu?
The former main hall of the Carol Palace.
The entire hall was empty, except for Li Yuxuan, who stood alone in the hall, staring directly at the throne that symbolized supreme power.
More than half a year ago, this was the political heart of the Carol Kingdom. The civil and military ministers on both sides discussed the government here every day, deciding the fate of millions of people in this kingdom. And outside the main hall are countless soldiers, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, what a magnificent momentum.
In just over half a year, the glory and glory of the past have turned into the dust of history. The Carol Dynasty, which had lasted for more than a hundred years, disappeared in an instant, as Li Yuxuan had expected. And those family members who have noble bloodlines and have sat on this throne for more than a hundred years are now also revenants under the sword.
Li Yuxuan raised his head and looked at the splendid decoration on the roof of the main hall, which was so gorgeous and magnificent.
It is this hall, this palace, but it is wrapped in a group of rotten and incompetent backs, wrapped in the residues and garbage that hide behind the great exploits of the ancestors. And I, Li Yuxuan, want to remove these residues, garbage, and ruthlessly throw all the nobles who have been corrupted and degenerate into the torrent of history. This world no longer belongs to you, but to me, Li Yuxuan!
When Tang Xu and the three of them walked into the main hall, Li Yuxuan was already sitting on the throne, and in his eyes, there was a light of excitement and wildness, and two flames full of ambition were burning in his eyes. And what frightened Tang Xu and them even more was that Li Yuxuan, who was sitting on the throne, exuded a natural kingly demeanor and amazing momentum all over his body at this moment. As soon as Tang Xu and the others entered the main hall, they immediately felt this shapeless momentum, which was even more terrifying than the majesty that Li Yuxuan's body had revealed from time to time before. The three of them couldn't help themselves and knelt on the ground.
The magic dragon heart trick finally shows an extraordinary demeanor again today, is it lonely?
Li Yuxuan, who was sitting on the throne, didn't notice Tang Xu and the others kneeling down in the main hall at all. At this moment, what unfolded in front of him was the vast land of the psychedelic continent, the rushing rivers, and the towering mountains, and his face unconsciously revealed a look of self-sufficiency.
After a long time, Li Yuxuan, who woke up from his thoughts, realized that Tang Xu and the three of them were kneeling below him.
Removing the evil spirit and ambition in his eyes, Li Yuxuan stepped down from the throne and helped the three people on the ground up one by one. Seeing that the three of them were a little flustered and unnatural, they immediately understood what was going on. But at this moment, Li Yuxuan, who was still in a state of excitement, still couldn't grasp his feelings well, and turned around and pointed to the throne:
"This is just the beginning, I will wipe out all the so-called nobles and complete the dream of dominating the continent, and you are willing to fight with me for this dream. ”
"I'll swear to follow the head of the family to the death!"
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the excitement in his heart, Li Yuxuan asked, "By the way, you have something to tell me, right?"
"Qiqi family master, as you expected, Sun Jingyu's Fourth Legion has already moved. Earlier in the day, they began to advance towards us. At their current marching speed, they will arrive here in three days at the earliest!" Tang Xu said with his hands in his hand.
"Very good! Very good!" a hint of cunning flashed in Li Yuxuan's eyes, "Prepare to evacuate Kefield!"
"Yes!"
When he learned the news that Sun Jingyu's Fourth Army was stationed at the Fengxiang border and was stagnant, Li Yuxuan was also secretly anxious in his heart. If Sun Jingyu gave up Kefield's offensive plan, then his previous series of actions would be meaningless, and the aftermath that he had used to deal with him would be stillborn. After some thought, Li Yuxuan canceled his previous order to close the granary, and instead ordered someone to load the grain in the granary into a truck and prepare to retreat north. Unexpectedly, the treacherous Sun Jingyu really hit the plan, and his subordinate Fourth Army began to advance towards Kefield.
As long as you take this step, I am sure that you will continue this road of no return until the day when you and your Fourth Legion will perish. Li Yuxuan's proud laughter echoed in the empty palace hall.
On July 15, 174 in the imperial calendar, on the south bank of Luoshui.
"Major General Li, I have completed the task entrusted to me by the head of the family on time, and it is up to you to see it next!"
The person who spoke was the admiral of the "homeland", Rear Admiral Zheng Jing. At this moment, his face was slightly pale, and his eyes were bloodshot, obviously he hadn't had a good rest in recent days.
"Major General Zheng, if it weren't for your fleet, I really wouldn't dare to let so many troops cross Luoshui. If this time he can really annihilate Sun Jingyu's Fourth Army in one fell swoop, Major General Zheng can be regarded as a great contribution!"
Just as the two "homeland" generals were talking, a steady stream of infantry lined up past the two and disembarked in an orderly manner.
Looking at the long queue on the boat ready to disembark and the huge infantry corps on the shore, Zheng Jing shook his head and said:
"The head of the family is really courageous, he dares to use so many reserves to devote himself to this war, it seems that he is determined to win this war!"
"By the way, how is Major General Bai on that side?" Li Fang thought of the situation of the other main force of this operation.
"Major General Li, rest assured, Major General Bai's army has all crossed the river in the early hours of tonight, and your movements will be accelerated!" Zheng Jing quipped.
"No way, I don't have more than 3,000 cavalry on my side, if you count the horses, it's more than 3,000!" Li Fang laughed.
"Don't mention those horses of yours, my warships are almost turned into horse farms, and there is a smell of horse manure everywhere!" Zheng Jing frowned, obviously quite a headache for those war horses.
"Don't say it, I'm going down too, and the logistics will be left to you!" Li Fang saw that the soldiers on the ship had almost left, and he was also ready to leave.
"Don't worry, those grains are better than those horses of yours, and they won't pollute the environment for me everywhere. "For those horses, it seems that Zheng Jing is still angry.
"By the way, how many reserves did the head of the family use in total this time?" Although there was no need to ask in his heart, Zheng Jing couldn't help but ask in the end.
Li Fang, who walked to the edge of the sampan, glanced at Zheng Jing, raised his right hand with a smile, and stretched out three fingers.
Oh my God, 30,000! A whole 30,000 horses have directly hollowed out all the power of the homeland.
Zheng Jing hurriedly covered his mouth, lest he couldn't help but scream and divulge military secrets.
The head of the family actually used all the reservists in such a tight situation of military rations, and it seems that he doesn't want to rest these days. As soon as he thought that he was responsible for transporting nearly 40,000 military rations, Zheng Jing felt that his head was swollen and aching again.
The sailors standing in the lookout position signaled all the words to return to the north shore, and the seven battleships slowly turned their bows along the river.
We will win, we will win, because our commander is the head of the family and the god of war!
