In the autumn of Wei Jia'an's twenty-seventh year, Xiao Jingxuan began to pay tribute to heaven and earth, and officially launched a war against the country.

In order to be able to successfully conquer and defend the country, Xiao Jingxuan did not sit in Yizhou, but personally led 5,000 tigers and leopards to Dazhou.

At the same time, Yang Xiong, who was in Luzhou, also led a large army to start from Luzhou Port and launch an attack on the coastal area of Weiguo.

When Xiao Jingxuan arrived in Dazhou City, Lei Ben had already made all the preparations before the attack.

In order to be able to better attack, Lei Ben sent a large army in advance, crossed the mountains, and set up camp on the land of the country in advance.

After a long journey, Xiao Jingxuan finally left Dazhou and rushed to Daying.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at the map in his hand and fell into deep thought. There is only one large city in the homeland, which is the capital of the country, Pingcheng.

Other than that, the rest of the country is more like a township. And the army of the Patriotic State is also more complicated.

In addition to the so-called royal army, it is the city guard. After that, there were the village soldiers.

And the people stationed in various places are the township soldiers, although the township soldiers

There are a large number of people, but the combat effectiveness is extremely low, and because of the scattered garrison, there are only a thousand village soldiers in any place, and only a few hundred people in any place.

As for the city guards, they are even more wonderful, and they simply live up to the title of the city guards. It turned out that the city guards were the private army of the nobles who defended the country.

In addition to protecting the territory of the nobles, the only thing left is to oppose the royal army.

However, although the number of the city guards was small, only 20,000, most of them were stationed around Heijo.

As for the royal army, as the pillar of maintaining the rule of the patriotic royal family, the number of the royal army reached 30,000.

As the most elite unit of the entire Patriotic Army, it is also well-equipped. The defense of Heijo Castle and the defense of the royal palace were the responsibility of the royal army.

In other words, the royal capital of the Patriotic State was stationed with more than half of the troops of the Patriotic State.

looked at the map in his hand, and then compared the map sent by the secret guard.

Xiao Jingxuan said with a headache: "Lei Ben, this battle is not easy to fight." It's not easy just trying to find the enemy. ”

Lei Ben looked at the map and nodded.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Jingxuan planned to divide his troops, and each department would attack separately in various places with the rate as a unit.

Xiao Jingxuan personally led 10,000 troops to sit in the camp and suppress the formation for the armies from all walks of life.

Xiao Jingxuan had only one request, that is, to capture a place, so he recruited all the young people in a place to build a plank road.

In short, it is to open a mountain and build a bridge when encountering a river. It is necessary to open up the road from Weiguo to Dazhou.

Only in this way can we better rule the country in the future.

With the military order issued, the army began to move separately towards the towns of the country.

Xiao Jingxuan sat in the middle of the camp, closed his eyes and rested, waiting for the triumph of the various armies.

At this time, Yang Xiong's army also drove to the coastal vicinity of Weiguo and launched an attack on nearby towns.

In this battle, except for Yang Xiong and Lei Ben, Xiao Jingxuan did not mobilize other generals.

If it weren't for the fact that there were too many troops mobilized this time, Xiao Jingxuan wouldn't want to use these two people.

Nowadays, most of the generals under Xiao Jingxuan's command are from Xiaowei, although these people have made great achievements, but they also have many shortcomings.

First of all, the origin of these people is destined to have a close relationship with the Wei State.

Although they are now all generals of the Yan Kingdom, most of their families and clansmen are around Los Angeles.

In addition, Xiao Wei was originally Emperor Wei's pro-army, and no one knew whether these people would be able to continue to be loyal to Xiao Jingxuan once Wei Yan was in the Great War.

In this war, most of Lei Ben's troops were soldiers who settled in Yan State, and Yang Xiong's army was all from Tuntian soldiers. Officers of all ranks in the army came from the personal guard battalion.

These people are all from the major battalions, and a large part of them are soldiers of Qianyan.

In addition, Xiao Jingxuan also had some students in the Yulin Academy in Yingzhou who began to join the army.

Although the number is not large, Xiao Jingxuan believes that with these people in power, Xiao Jingxuan will definitely be able to greatly strengthen his control over the army.

As the army continued to capture the enemy's towns, a group of young men who defended the country were escorted to the main camp.

For these young people, Xiao Jingxuan actually doesn't have too much kindness in his heart, after all, if he is not of my race, his heart will be different.

Xiao Jingxuan left 5,000 foot soldiers and 1,000 tigers and leopards to ride, and handed them over to Xiao Yuan, the deputy general of the pro-army.

At the same time, the heavy task of building the road was handed over to Xiao Yuan, and Xiao Jingxuan's military order was only one, that is, to open the road as soon as possible.

Other than that, Hins Hsiao didn't ask too much.

Xiao Yuan is a relatively cold-blooded and cruel person among the guards. All of his family died at the hands of the barbarians.

Later, when Xiao Jingxuan was in charge of Fengzhou, Xiao Yuan begged in Fengzhou, and later, when Xiao Jingxuan was in Yingzhou.

Xiao Yuan, who had reached the age of eleven, came to Yingzhou thousands of miles away. Later, I was fortunate enough to be admitted to Yulin Academy.

After Xiao Yuan arrived at the academy, he practiced martial arts diligently, and it took less than two years to break through and enter the realm of unity. Later, he was accepted as a disciple by Xiao Jingxuan, and his martial arts advanced by leaps and bounds.

The reason why Xiao Jingxuan arranged Xiao Yuan to be the chief official of the road repair this time was because he took a fancy to Xiao Yuan's cruelty.

Xiao Yuan also understood Xiao Jingxuan's deep meaning very well. For the defenders of the road. Xiao Yuan can be said to have taken an extremely cruel approach.

Xiao Yuan chained all the young men with iron chains. A team of 1,000 people is selected, from which two overseers are selected.

Xiao Yuan did not allow his soldiers to beat and scold these young men who defended the country, but gave the overseer a leather whip.

Every day, the team with the worst progress has no food to eat. The one who ranks first in progress can eat enough.

In order to allow the overseers to play a better role, Xiao Yuan also stipulated that the overseers of the team with the worst progress would be executed.

It is precisely because of Xiao Yuan's policy that the progress of road construction is very fast, and of course, the mortality rate of the young and strong people of the country is not small, and almost hundreds of young people die every day.

Xiao Jingxuan didn't care about these things, and at this time, Xiao Jingxuan led the army and began to march towards the capital of the country little by little.

Because it is necessary to collect the young and strong, and pacify the surrounding towns. Xiao Jingxuan was not in a hurry to enter.

In Xiao Jingxuan's eyes, this place will be the granary of Yan Kingdom in the future. For the sake of long-term peace and stability in the future. It is necessary to weaken the strength of the native people of the country.

In the future, the defense of the country is destined to need immigrants. Only by completely turning the country into the territory of the Yan State can the rule be maintained.

As the army marched, Xiao Jingxuan finally got in touch with Yang Xiongbu. After deciding on the meeting place, Xiao Jingxuan let Yang Xiong play freely.

However, as the battle line lengthened, Xiao Jingxuan finally ran into trouble. Because there was a shortage of food in the army.

You must know that the daily consumption of 50,000 troops is staggering. However, due to the impassability of the road, the grain and grass in the rear were not delivered on time.

On top of that, there wasn't much grain and grass for the people to collect.

Although the food of those young people is very poor, the huge amount makes the daily consumption of young people an astronomical amount.

Look at the map in your hand. Xiao Jingxuan began to think about the matter of grain and grass. Is it really necessary to launch an attack on Heijo in advance?

As the capital of the country, Pingcheng is also the largest city in the country, and the grain stored in Pingcheng can definitely meet the consumption of the army.

Just when Xiao Jingxuan didn't know what to do, the peace mission of the patriotic country finally arrived at the camp.

However, it is a pity that this mission was not sent by the royal family of the Patriotic Monarchy, but by the Patriotic Lords and Nobles.

These nobles saw that Xiao Jingxuan was powerful, and they couldn't stop Xiao Jingxuan's military peak. So they all had bad ideas.

Looking at the invitation in his hand, Xiao Jingxuan also fell into deep thought. This surrender form is not from the royal family, but a private request for surrender from the nobles in the city.

Xiao Jingxuan thought for a moment and looked at the envoy.

"You go and tell your master that after surrendering, I can guarantee the safety of all your property except land, but you must be sincere, if you don't want to, I won't force it, and then after the city is broken, it will be too late."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Jingxuan began to let people send off guests.

For these nobles of the country, Xiao Jingxuan despised it to the extreme, but in order to reduce casualties, Xiao Jingxuan could only leave them a way to live, as for whether they could catch it, it depended on their luck.

After these people left, Xiao Jingxuan began to study the Kanyu map in his hand.

Today, Xiao Jingxuan has requisitioned almost 500,000 young people to build roads.

Basically, the roads have been almost built. For these young people, Xiao Jingxuan did not plan to let them go back.

Next, Xiao Jingxuan plans to build six cities in Weiguo. Together with the flat city, there are seven cities.

Then use the seven cities to complete the rule of the Guardians. But for now, he still needs to find a way to continue to consume the population of the country.

After another five days, Xiao Jingxuan finally joined Yang Xiong's troops, and now, Xiao Jingxuan's fighting troops in his hands reached about 70,000 people, and then, the army could directly attack Pingcheng.

Xiao Jingxuan ordered people to recruit 50,000 people from the remaining people of the country to build siege equipment, and at the same time, this group of people will also become the vanguard of the siege.

Xiao Jingxuan knew that with the issuance of his military order, I don't know how many people who defended the country would be displaced.

Although it was cruel, Xiao Jingxuan didn't think that what he did was wrong.

There is no right or wrong in war, there are only winners, princes and losers.

After calming down, Xiao Jingxuan continued to order the army to continue to march towards Pingcheng.

After arriving in Pingcheng, there was no surprise that the enemy chose to resist, and Xiao Jingxuan did not care about this.

As for the envoys sent by the Patriotic State to seek peace, Xiao Jingxuan did not see any of them, but only ordered the army to besiege the city.

With the arrival of the patriotic youth. A large number of siege engines were crafted.

The most effective is naturally the catapult. Secondly, ladders, arrow towers, and siege vehicles have also been built.

As the boulders flew towards the walls of Heijo, it also meant the beginning of this brutal war.
