Chapter 242: The dust has settled
At this moment, Li Jie is face is hideous, the first battalion of the Fengzhou garrison is his old subordinate, and he didn't expect to be lost here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
What's more important is that since the establishment of the Southwest Military Region, when have you ever suffered such a big loss!
"Okay! Lao Tzu is not blind, the main responsibility is not you, but my 3,000 sons' lives, how can I lose them like this, you lead an army of 50,000 to kill me, I will let them return ten times as much!"
Li Jie's eyes were red, and he saluted yes, and the generals discussed around the sand table.
This is a topographic map of Fengzhou to the west, although there has been no revenge against the Tianyuan Empire in recent years, but he still sent people to touch the surrounding situation, after all, it can be regarded as preparing for the future, and now it is useful.
Shen Mufeng's order to Li Jie was that each soldier should bring four days' rations and pursue two hundred miles, Li Jie took the order and left, for these enemy troops, he can no longer describe them with hatred, the battalion that died in the battle was Pinglan's old subordinates, and most of Shen Mufeng could call out his name.
However, in order to gain time, these brothers insisted on holding on for more than an hour when there was not enough ammunition.
And for the two empires, this is the first unprecedented cooperation after the division of the two empires, and the upper echelons of the two empires are not pigheads, with the strength of the current Great Summer Dynasty, it is not something that any of them can shake.
If you still fight to the death, it won't take a few years, and after the Great Summer Dynasty stabilizes, maybe it will be their catastrophe.
So after planning for a long time, there was a joint attack, and the result was self-evident, and it ended dismally, with two million troops making no achievements in Yuzhou and Yanzhou, and even the million army assembled in Fengzhou, the main battlefield, was also defeated again and again, and suffered heavy losses.
However, this is only the beginning, when the armies of the two countries were still waiting for reinforcements to counterattack again, Li Jie led the 50,000 army to kill, Li Jie took the lead, and the 50,000 army was also like crazy, sparing no ammunition, and the corpses were everywhere they passed.
After two days and one night, the soldiers of the Tianyuan Empire who died under Li Jie's 50,000 troops turned out to be more than 200,000 people, and 70,000 were captured, so they returned to Fengzhou with 50,000 troops.
The two empires had two million troops, and they lost 440,000 casualties in less than half a month, and 70,000 were captured, among which the Tianyuan Empire suffered particularly heavy losses, losing as many as 380,000 people.
This battle can be said to have hurt the Tianyuan Empire, and after Li Jie returned to Fengzhou, he learned that Shen Mufeng led his troops south.
Shen Mufeng was also very angry, since the two countries launched an attack on Great Xia at the same time, there was nothing to say, and he just took this opportunity to mess up the Great Yuan Empire.
The Great Yuan Empire is located in the southern part of the Wind Province, if Shen Mufeng wants to destroy it the most, it is undoubtedly the Great Yuan Empire, not the Tian Yuan Empire, because the Great Yuan Empire connects Yuzhou and Yanzhou.
And in the middle of these two states is the centipede mountain of dozens of miles, although the place where miasma poisonous insects gather, there are few human tracks, but if the Great Yuan Empire is very strong, it will be a threat to the Great Xia Dynasty.
When Shen Mufeng arrived in Yuzhou, he directly led an army of 50,000 to attack, bypassing the enemy army of Dayuan and going straight to Xiangzhou, and attacked Xiangzhou City with a crushing momentum, leaving 20,000 people, blocking the aid of Dayuan, and leading 30,000 people to charge against the 400,000 enemy army.
King Shen Yan was angry and blood-stained Xiangzhou, and the corpses outside Xiangzhou were all over the field, and in this battle alone, more than 200,000 enemies were killed and more than 50,000 people were captured.
However, Shen Mufeng did not stop there, went deep again, occupied Qingzhou City of the Great Yuan Empire, cut off the enemy's rear road, and also sounded the clarion call for Qingzhou Xiangzhou reform/reform.
In fact, Shen Mufeng also understands that it is nonsense to unify the continent, at least with the current situation, it is absolutely impossible to unify this continent within ten years.
Just like the old saying goes, it is easy to fight the country and it is difficult to defend the country, and now for Shen Mufeng, there is no problem in sweeping the mainland, but governance is the key.
And Shen Mufeng has slowly understood a truth in these years of governance, if you want to grow, the flowers in the greenhouse cannot withstand the wind and frost, and external pressure is indispensable, let alone a country.
More than 2,000 years ago, the Han Dynasty collapsed overnight, is it just because of Huo Qu's death?
Therefore, Shen Mufeng used his own knowledge to lay a solid foundation for the country.
The military, the system, the economy, the people's livelihood, the civil rights, etc., have changed a lot in the past 12 years, but as time passes, the more I feel powerless.
Shen Mufeng understood that in the remaining eight years, this continent could not be unified, and even if it was unified, it would be a matter of time before it collapsed without external pressure and with the imperfection of the system.
Therefore, Shen Mufeng's thoughts are also slowly changing, and after occupying Qingzhou and Xiangzhou, Shen Mufeng made a decision to use the rest of the time to occupy Dayuan, and include Dayuan in the territory of the Great Summer Dynasty, Tianyuan and other dynasties, and leave it to future generations to make decisions!
At the same time, Shen Mufeng issued an order, ordering Li Jie to lead the army to capture the Tianyuan Empire for hundreds of miles, and ordered the prisoners of war to build the Great Wall.
Three months later, Shen Mufeng personally gathered an army of 100,000 and attacked the Great Yuan Empire, until he reached the capital of the Great Yuan Empire, Dayuan City.
In March 149 of the Great Xia calendar, the emperor of the Great Yuan Empire abdicated, and the centuries-old empire collapsed overnight.
In April 152 of the Great Xia calendar, it took three years to restructure the Great Yuan Empire, and the Great Yuan Empire was completely incorporated into the Great Xia territory.
However, the Great Yuan Empire was still too big compared to Feng Province, so Shen Mufeng decided to divide Yuan Province into two provinces, namely Eastern Yuan Province and Western Yuan Province.
After the threat of the Great Yuan Empire was lifted, Shen Mufeng repaired the defense line, and the Great Wall was repaired, from Fengzhou to the Tianji Mountains, and from the Longzhou section to the entire border of Dongyuan Province, with a total length of more than 2,300 li.
In March 153 of the Great Xia calendar, Shen Mufeng formulated the Northern Expedition plan.
On March 15 of the same year, the army broke through the defense line of Hezhou, Tianping Prefecture, Tongzhou, and completely banned the army towards the Northern Imperial Court.
Yunzhou was the first to change banners, and the states of Great Xia followed closely and merged into the Great Xia Dynasty, while Zuotian and Longgu fled overseas and disappeared.
On October 1, 153, Feng Province was established as the capital, the National Assembly was established, the Three People's Principles Program was promulgated, Shen Mufeng served as the chairman of the National Assembly, and at the same time the decree on the equalization of industry, commerce and agriculture was promulgated, and the decree on women's fair participation in politics and law was promulgated.
On November 1, 153 of the Great Xia calendar, the navy was established and five major naval bases were prepared, which were set up in Wanhua Prefecture and Longping Prefecture in Xia Province, Sanping Prefecture in Qi Province, Taizhou and Yuanzhou in Dongyuan Province.
On April 1, 155 years of the Great Xia calendar, Xia Yuan, the emperor of the Republic of China, died, reigned for 38 years, and his descendants named him Emperor Mingde.
On September 1, 155 years of the Great Xia calendar, Shen Mufeng resigned as chairman of the National Assembly, and the chairman was replaced by Sun Fuyi.
On December 12, 155 years of the Great Xia calendar, a hand-cranked generator appeared, and in February of the following year, electric lights appeared.
......
On August 15, 156 years of the Great Xia calendar, Shen Mufeng and his family drew a few family photos, took one, and went out to seek medical treatment the next day on the grounds of illness......
The Great Wall of Bactria took nearly eight years to build, using millions of prisoners, and as many as 300,000 prisoners died during the construction of the Great Wall.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call this magnificent building a flesh and blood defense line.
Three hundred miles southwest of Wanshan County is the Great Wall defense area, the Great Wall is divided into 200 defense areas, and every 15 to 20 miles, there is a garrison battalion stationed.
At this moment, there is a young man standing on the Great Wall, who looks no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, but has a unique temperament, heavy, with a touch of sadness.
This person is none other than Shen Mufeng, Shen Mufeng has taken off the disguise of a middle-aged man, and for twenty years, he has not left any traces on his face, but looks even younger.
Shen Mufeng, dressed in a green cloth robe, strolling on the Great Wall, flashed one picture after another in his heart, as if walking in the past 20 years.
It is said that life is like a dream and a play, and for Shen Mufeng, it is very real.
Looking down into the distance, the barrier stretched to the end of the sky, and it is estimated that no one would believe that in another time and space, there is also a Great Xia, the 'Great Wall' that carries the thousand-year-old civilization of China, has been copied by itself.
This is the continuation of the Chinese spirit, looking back on the past, working hard for so long, and looking at this endless Great Wall, Shen Mufeng feels that all this is worth it!
However, Shen Mufeng couldn't be happy, because there were too many ties with him here.
Three days later
"I woke up from my dream and went home......"
Shen Mufeng slowly closed his eyes, and the ticking sound like a clock sounded in his mind, the speed became faster and faster, and a few minutes later, a fog rose.
In the mist, a figure slowly disappeared, as if it had never appeared...... (To be continued.) )
