The Zhou Dynasty led an army to crusade against the northern lands.

This incident caused an uproar throughout the Great Zhou.

The whole country also didn't know how many princes and nobles applauded, and they hoped that Wang Ji's army would immediately break through Beibing Town, annihilate the Xingyue Army, and then arrest Li Yueming, an unkind and unrighteous person in the cholera world, and punish him with capital punishment to solve the hatred of the Qin army.

After all, in the original invasion war of the Qin army, in addition to Zhou Tianzi's Dragon and Tiger Army Guards, the biggest losses were none other than their group of princes and nobles distributed in the south of Futian Pass.

I don't know how many princes and nobles were unlucky, and the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of years of the family was swept away by the Qin army.

Now the Qin army, which is naturally hated, and the northwest are itching.

In their opinion, if the two places in the northwest could do their best to fulfill their obligations to defend against foreign enemies, they would definitely not let such a tragedy occur in the Central Plains of the Great Zhou.

They can't help the fierce and brutal Qin army, and they can't help the rebellious ministers and thieves in the northwest?

At the same time as raising troops for the Northern Expedition, the princes and nobles naturally had to criticize the two places in the northwest.

"The rebellious ministers and thieves in the two places in the northwest, the disaster of the Qin army's entry into the customs five years ago was caused by your dedication to resisting it, such disloyal to the royal family, those who do not obey the etiquette system, everyone in the world will be punished!"

"That's right, the Qin army entered the cholera of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the entire Futian Pass to Jishui was full of wolf smoke, hundreds of people were displaced, countless nobles brought their families with their mouths, and even the pickaxe Kyoto was almost threatened by the soldiers...... If I don't take revenge for this revenge, how can I have the face to see the souls of dozens or hundreds of kings who died due to the Qin Rebellion? ”

The vast majority of the people of Da Zhou accepted these remarks.

After all, all the news channels in the world are controlled by this group of princes and nobles, and the information that the people can get is screened and disseminated.

Therefore, in their opinion, the last time the Qin army entered the customs was a rebellion in the northwest.

In fact, this statement is true in many senses.

It's just that everyone subconsciously ignores one thing.

That is, the Great Zhou did not have the idea of protecting the people of the northwest from beginning to end, and all the defense lines of Wang Ji's army were built on the line of Fulong Pass, Fuhu Pass and Futian Pass, and did not regard the two places in the northwest as part of the territory at all.

Instead, he regarded it as a pawn that could be sacrificed, and he was nakedly placed on a chessboard that must be lost, intending to use the blood of the soldiers in the northwest to consume the strength of the Qin army.

Originally, this trick was actually very clever.

Wang Ji of the Great Zhou knew that the Zhenxi Army would definitely not surrender and would fight to the end with the Qin army, and they only needed to cooperate with the army in the north to block the Qin army in the process of continuing to move south after the Qin army took Zhenxi Pass, so as to protect several checkpoints of the Great Zhou from being hit head-on.

If it can be implemented normally, the Great Zhou will definitely not lose much strength in this war, and in turn, it can even weaken the strength of the two places in the northwest.

But he didn't expect the Xingyue Army to mess up everything in it.

Not only did it say that the Qin army would no longer attack Zhenxi Pass, but also opened a road for the Qin army cave in the 100,000 mountains.

caught off guard, so that Da Zhou suffered a loss.

Therefore, I heard a group of princes and nobles who controlled public opinion talking nonsense with their eyes open.

There is still a self-proclaimed literati and doctors in China who stand up and sneer: "It is true that the two places in the northwest are chaotic ministers and thieves, but this chaotic minister and thief was forced to deviate from the Great Zhou, as for the reason, it is nothing more than the slightest regard for the people and troops in the northwest as the stomach of my Great Zhou!" ”

"At the beginning, we proposed to send troops to the northwest to help, if the ministers in the court could adopt our suggestion instead of blindly thinking about how to preserve their own strength, how could there be the rebellion of the Qin people five years ago?"

"Zhenxi Pass is the ancient pass that existed when the Great Dry was at the beginning, its pass is steep, all the barriers in the world, no level can be out of the right! Although the Zhenxi Army is a descendant of the Great Qian, in order to resist the enemy of Qindi over the years, I don't know how many sacrifices it has paid! ”

"And what about my big week? has always been only willing to admit the merits of the Zhenxi Army on the surface, and even sometimes even does not do well on the surface, but in fact, it has been secretly suppressing and guarding against the western ...... The same is true in the north, then Li Yueming has made great contributions to my Great Zhou for more than ten years, but my Great Zhou is not even stingy with the official position of a general, and the Great Zhou does not have the amount of room for people, how can he blame the rebellion of the two places in the northwest? ”

The contradictions between scholars and princes and nobles in the Great Zhou Dynasty have a long history, and the two sides often spray each other thousands of years ago.

Needless to say, the princes and nobles represent the royal relatives of the Zhou royal family, among which the larger ones, such as King Yu in the northeast and King De in the southeast, all have fiefs.

The other down-and-out royal families were under the command of the Zhou royal family and several powerful princes, but they could barely survive.

The scholars, on the other hand, are nobles with different surnames other than the emperor's relatives.

They ascended to the throne through merit and ability, and naturally looked down on this group of clans surnamed Ji who controlled the government and ate with a mouthful of oil, but did not have much ability.

The contradictions between the two sides have been fundamentally established.

As the status and power of the nobles with different surnames behind the scholars became higher and higher in the country, the penetration of the power in the hands of the princes and nobles became more and more serious, and the conflicts between the two sides became more and more intense, often spraying each other in the court.

This time was no exception.

According to the normal situation, the two sides will spray each other with two sentences.

But this time, the readers poked a big basket.

At the beginning, he gave up the northwest and made every effort to build a defense line on the front line of Fulong Pass and Futian Pass, which on the surface seemed to be the princes of the court, but in fact, this was secretly acquiesced by Zhou Tianzi.

This group of scholars is now pointing to this decree and spraying wildly.

Isn't he pointing at Zhou Tianzi's nose and scolding?

Zhou Tianzi naturally could not tolerate such an act of transgression.

Therefore, Zhou Tianzi, who would have pretended to stand in the middle as a referee in the past when he encountered this situation, did not reconcile in the middle of his anger this time, but let both sides criticize and write.

Under such circumstances, the contradictions within the Great Zhou intensified again.

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Ji's army was still fighting outside, the princes and nobles who actually controlled the Great Zhou would not have simply sprayed a few words at this time, and I am afraid that they would have already faced the scholars and the nobles with different surnames behind them.

……

… 0…

In North Glacier Town, the war between the two sides is still going on.

At this moment, Great Qin in the northwest and Great Qi in the northeast are all watching this war.

Great Qin doesn't need to say much.

There is a close connection between the Nine Emperor Princes and Li Yueming, and for a long time in the past, Li Yueming has the upper hand in the exchanges between the two sides.

Because Li Yueming had a very good relationship with the little fox, he controlled the fate of Qin's march into the north, and due to the situation, the Nine Emperors had to bow their heads.

Obviously, the strength of the Qin State is stronger than Li Yueming, I don't know how many times, but it has always been restrained by Li Yueming.

This is undoubtedly very aggrieved for both the Qin State and the Nine Emperor Princes.

And this time, Da Zhou led the army to attack Beibing Town, which was naturally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Daqin.

If Li Yueming can't hold on, there are only a few people who Beibing Town can ask for help.

And Daqin is one of the good choices.

At that time, the Nine Emperor Princes, who had gained the initiative, would definitely let Li Yueming give up the road of the Snow Mountain and completely kick Li Yueming away.

As for Daqi, which is in the northeast, it has been reorganizing and training the army all these years.

Because the Great Qi has been concentrating on maritime politics for nearly a thousand years, the army on land has not clashed with other countries for many years.

Now that Daqi has obtained enough financial resources on the ocean and has the intention of winning the Central Plains, it is natural to take this opportunity to take a good look at the strength of the armies of several other countries in the Central Plains, so as to formulate a feasible plan for hegemony according to the actual situation.

As normal.

It should be impossible to fight against the entire Great Zhou with the power of the two northwesters.

In fact, it is.

All the people in the northwest and northwest are only 10 million or 20 million, while the Central Plains of the Great Zhou has a population of nearly 100 million, and the gap between the two sides is very huge.

If the Star Moon Army wants to win in this war, it is definitely not possible to resist hard, and it must come up with a strange plan.

And Li Yueming naturally knows this truth.

Therefore, in the second month of the battle, seeing that the Xingyue Army on the wall of Beibing Town was almost unable to hold on, and the alliance army of the princes began to become impatient because it could not be attacked for a long time.

Li Yueming quietly sent out the most elite special forces in the Xingyue Army.

When building the city, Li Yueming had already considered several plans after being attacked by the Great Zhou.

Now it's time to put it into practice.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, 5,000 soldiers of the special forces left from the secret passage in the city, rushed to another secret horse breeding place of the Xingyue Army overnight, rode the war horses that had been prepared for a long time, and went around more than 3,000 miles in the early morning of the second day to attack the grain route of the princes' coalition army.

The princes' control of the baggage is still in place, but the special forces are well-trained, each of them is a powerful cultivator, according to the normal situation, this kind of elite troops should appear on the frontal battlefield and fight with the Wangji Guards with military spirits, instead of sneaking to the rear thousands of miles away to attack the grain routes of the princes' coalition army.

But now, this army that does not speak of martial virtue has appeared.

Therefore, the soldiers who watched the grain and grass resisted for a moment, and found that the strength of this mysterious army was stronger than they imagined, and the number of casualties among the soldiers under their command in just two battles exceeded their imagination.

I had to throw away my armor and flee for my life.

Cut off the grain and grass of the princes' coalition army.

The special forces did not dare to stop for a moment, and immediately mounted their horses and headed towards a city called 'Ye'.

Yecheng is located in the south of Beibing Town, which is a necessary place on the retreat of the princes' coalition forces, and now let the special forces ambush here, Li Yueming's idea can be imagined.

After receiving a secret letter that the grain route was cut off.

The general of the Son of Heaven coalition slammed his fist on the table, and the entire ground shook with the huge force.

He glanced up at the hazy walls of Beibing Town in the morning mist, and then at the slightly tired Son of Heaven coalition army behind him.

Reason told him that the first thing to do after the grain route was cut off was to withdraw his troops.

But how majestic was he when he led the troops from Fulong Pass?

Zhou Tianzi and the princes and nobles had high hopes for him, and now if he withdrew his army without getting enough results, his career as a general would come to an end.

After returning to the gate, you can already burn incense and worship the Buddha without being punished.

During this period of fierce attack, the walls of Beibing Town have been cut off by more than ten inches, and the Xingyue Army has also already become the end of the strong crossbow, and now the grain and grass in the coalition camp can last another month, he doesn't believe that this month will not be able to break through Beibing Town.

Even if there is really no way, waiting until the middle of the month to retreat will not affect the overall situation.

Thinking of this, the coalition forces came and decided to bite the bullet and continue the offensive.

……

… 0…

Look at the army that is coming again like a tidal wave under your feet.

Li Yueming showed a smile, he was not afraid that the coalition forces would continue to attack, but he was afraid that the coalition forces would retreat decisively.

The town of North Glacier has a population of less than 1 million, and even if it can bring together the people of the entire northwest and the northwest, it is at most less than 10 million.

With this strength alone, it is absolutely impossible to compete head-on with Da Zhou.

Let's take a simple example.

The Star Moon Army has damaged nearly 100,000 soldiers in this war, and if it wants to replenish these forces, with the population of North Glacier Town, it will take twenty years to recover, and even if the authority to recruit troops from the army is relaxed and the soldiers are recruited for the entire Northland, it will take ten years to restore the strength before the war.

But Da Zhou is backed by the rich and vast Central Plains, and both the army and population are ten times that of Beibing Town, and they are also given more than ten years, they can not only recover their vitality, but also reorganize an army of one million.

That's the gap between the two sides.

It is also why in antiquity one country was able to win another country five or six times.

But you only need to lose once, and you will directly destroy the country and extinct the species.

Therefore, what Li Yueming wanted to do this time was not only to simply defeat the princes' coalition army, but to let the princes' coalition army rout and achieve the greatest victory possible at the lowest cost.

Only by hurting the Great Zhou and letting everyone in the world see the super combat effectiveness of the Star Moon Army and the strong internal stubble of the Great Zhou, can Beibing Town be preserved and will not be swallowed up by endless wars.

Otherwise, I am afraid that the only path left for Li Yueming is to abandon Beibing Town and escape into the 100,000 mountains to seek development.

It was found that the coalition forces had once again rushed up.

One of the commanders of the Star and Moon Army stood on the high city wall and looked at the tired soldiers and said, "Everyone take a good look, behind you is the home that everyone has built brick by brick!" ”

"Every family living in it is the people of the Northland who were affected by the war, and every one of them is a compatriot of our Star and Moon Army......"

"Thanks to General Li, our group of refugees were able to survive endlessly, and even learned to read and write, and it was also thanks to General Li that we joined the Xingyue Army and became a part of defending our homeland in Beibing Town!"

"I don't know what royal righteousness is, and I don't know what it means to be a chaotic minister and thief, the Zhou Dynasty put this hat on us, but I never considered that the people in the northwest have never had a good life under their rule!"

"General Li gave us the land to live, the opportunity to study and work, and the hope of a good life, so he is our reborn parent!"

"General Li's will is the will of our Xingyue Army, and General Li's honor is the honor of our Xingyue Army...... The grain route of the coalition army has been cut off by General Li, and it will not be more than half a month at most, and the Liang army will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure to retreat! ”

"And now is the last darkness before dawn, as long as we can hold on, victory will definitely belong to Beibing Town, and it will also belong to our Star and Moon Army!"
