Chapter 424: Attack Again
The reason why Haiyun Bang sent these small teams to the Golden Dragon State in the north to reconnoiter was because they felt that the Golden Dragon State was fighting against the southern border in the west, and they had no energy or strength to guard the southern border.
Under this understanding, they wanted to tear up the peace treaty signed with the Golden Dragon State, and take advantage of the fact that the Golden Dragon State had no time to expand their territory.
They also received an invitation from Tunyun State in the west to prepare to attack the Golden Dragon State at the same time, encroaching on the southern grasslands of the Golden Dragon State.
When Marshal Ezhong received the report of the border team, he immediately ordered the border guards to take strict precautions and pay careful attention to these Haiyun State soldiers who had entered the country.
If you find these Haiyun Bang soldiers, you will immediately surround and annihilate them, but remember not to enter the territory of Haiyun Bang.
If the Haiyunbang soldiers fled back by themselves, they would not chase after them again.
At the same time, Ezhong reported the news to the lord of Jinlong and the governor of Jintu.
Jin Long received the transmission from Ezhong and immediately discussed countermeasures with Kameishi Shousuke.
Guishi said: "This situation will often happen between states, our team just need to pay attention to it, if there are really Haiyun Bang soldiers entering our territory, just quietly encircle and exterminate it, there is no need to make a noise." Now, we pretend not to know, and we don't need to inform Hai Yunbang of the protest. Since they have this idea, let's pretend to be confused! With this kind of thing between states, issuing a notice of protest can only be regarded as an act of weakness! ”
"Okay, just do as you want. Tell Ezhong and Crocodile to urge the border guards to defend strictly, and anyone who sneaks into the territory of our Golden Dragon State will be surrounded and killed, leaving no one! Jin Long said.
"Yes. I immediately sent them a message. Kameishi said firmly.
Jin Tu received the transmission from Ezhong, and said with a smile: "Is the state lord of Haiyun State a snapping turtle?" I remember that when they signed the agreement with us, they agreed on mutual non-aggression, and now he wants to tear up the agreement? ”
"Judging from what they're doing now, they probably want to tear up the agreement. ”
"Hehehe, they should have torn up the agreement earlier, it's too late. The civil war in Kim Son State is over, and although we still have some difficulties, we are much better than before. Our 50,000 troops here are not decorations, and he Haiyunbang is probably thinking too much if he wants to bully Nanding City. I've informed you of the Crocodile Clan, and Crocodile Land and Crocodile will soon form two legions to reach the southern border. I guess they don't just go there for fun, right? ”
"Hahaha! Brother Jintu, with you in our Jinlong Bang, it is definitely impossible for Haiyun Bang to pick up cheap. Crocodile said with a smile.
"I can't say that, having you and Ezhong on the grassland in the south of Jinlongbang is the key, I'm just icing on the cake and helping everyone come up with ideas!" Jin Tu said.
After pausing for a while, Jin Tu said again: "My feeling is that Haiyun State is not the key, but the Tunyun State in our south is the key. According to recent intelligence, Tunyun State has stationed a large army on our southwestern border and is almost ready to attack, which is our great enemy. However, if the Tunyun State really comes to attack, I would like to cede their northern territory to the Jinshan State, and make the southern border of the Jinshan State the same as the southern border of our Jinlong State. In this way, they will not constantly think of cutting us off so that our southern borders will be the same as those of the Jinshan State. ”
"Yes, our territory is more than 500 li from the boundary river to the southern border, while the territory of Jinshan State is only more than 400 li from the boundary river to the southern border, and our border is more than 100 li to the south, which is why they have been wanting to occupy it for so many years." Crocodile said.
"If it weren't for Nanzheng City here, they might have occupied it a long time ago!" Jin Tu said.
"yes, I've been guarding this for years, and I know that very well." Crocodile said.
"If they take the initiative to attack, we will join the bears and Kaneki and them to advance to the south to see who is faster!" Jin Tu said.
"Now, the Western Expeditionary Army has incorporated more than 30,000 soldiers who have taken the initiative to join Jinshan State, and has formed a scale of 100,000 soldiers, plus more than 50,000 soldiers we have here, Tunyunbang will definitely not get any benefit if he wants to take the initiative to attack. But we must be careful here, because our position is more than a hundred miles ahead after all, and we are their primary target. Crocodile said.
"Yes, we're under a lot of pressure and we do need special attention!" Jin Tu nodded and said.
After Marshal Crocodile and Crocodile occupied four key places in the north, they quickly stabilized the northern areas of Shenbang and Jinshan State, but the western army led by Huangshan and Xiong Li did not quickly stabilize the western part of Jinshan State.
The western part of Jinshan State is vast, stretching all the way to the northwest forest, and although the total number of living beings is small, several large families are very powerful and will not easily bow to any force.
When the Western Army patrol arrived, two families clashed with the patrol.
One of these two families is the yak family and the other is the elk family.
They organized forty or fifty thousand tribesmen to confront the western army, but the yak family was divided and surrounded by the western army because the clansmen were not moving fast enough, and finally had to bow their heads and surrender.
However, the Elk family has brought a lot of trouble to the western army, resulting in the western army having to be stationed to deal with it.
After nearly three days of fighting and interception, the elk family fled with their people into the northwestern forest after seeing that their people had suffered too many casualties and could not continue the confrontation, but they did not surrender to the western army of Jinshan State from beginning to end.
After three days of arduous travel and fighting, the soldiers of the western army were also exhausted and had to be stationed to repair.
As a result, the Western Army, which had planned to finish its western patrol in five or six days and then march to the southern border, was still close to the forest in the western part of the country ten days later, more than 300 miles away from the southern border.
"Hahaha, this western region is really beyond our expectations, although the number of living beings is not very large, but there are no weak people in the fight, every family is not to be underestimated!" Huang Long said with a smile.
"yes, it was beyond my expectations. I never thought I would encounter such stubborn resistance here. There are really people outside the mountains! Jin Shan also said with a sigh.
"It's been eleven days, and we've only advanced more than 100 miles, and we're still more than 300 miles from the southern border. This is something we didn't expect! Kameyama said with a sigh.
"Maybe we made a mistake in our decision, we shouldn't have carried out such patrols, we should have gone straight to the border to the south. We patrol like this, the time is tight, and it is very hasty, which will cause some big families to resent it. The west is vast, and there are not many living beings, so it only takes a decree from the state lord to stabilize the place. Even if a large family with ideas wants to oppose it, there will be a process. We came to patrol because we were too anxious and underestimated the strength of the family in the west. Alright, let's adjust in time. Jinshan, you send a message to Huangshan and ask him to command the western army to advance directly to the southern border and no longer patrol the west. Guishan, you send a message to Xi Gang and ask him to issue a security order to the whole state of Jinshan State in the name of the state lord, mobilize all parties to maintain the security and stability of Jinshan State, and prohibit the emergence of instability. Alright, let's fly south quickly, so that we can get an idea of the situation on the southern border as soon as possible. Huang Ling said.
Jinshan and Guishan transmitted their voices separately, and then Jinshan violently instigated his wings to fly quickly to the south.
At this time, according to Huang Ling's request, Jin Mu and Xiongren had already incorporated more than 30,000 soldiers who had just announced their entry into Jinshan State into the Western Expedition Army, and divided them into two parts and went to the southern border of Jinshan State.
However, even though the Jinshan State had such defensive preparations, the Xishan State, which is located southwest of the Jinshan State, still took the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack on the Jinshan State.
The high-level leaders of the Xishan State generally believed that the Jienan State had just perished, and the Jinshan State had just been established, and it was the time when it was at its weakest and weakest. At this time, attacking Jinshan State and putting strong pressure on Jinshan State will definitely make the newly established Jinshan State compromise and send a lot of benefits.
They organized five legions from the state, totaling more than 50,000 soldiers, divided into two armies, east and west, to attack Jinshan State.
Among them, the Western Route Army consisted of more than 20,000 soldiers, and their mission was to enter the Jinshan State along the edge of the western forest and occupy the western part of the Jinshan State.
The Eastern Route Army, consisting of more than 30,000 soldiers, was the main force of the attack, with the aim of finding the troops of the Jinshan State to encircle and annihilate them, forcing the Jinshan State to compromise and agree to cede the western region to the Xishan State.
Since the western army led by Huang Shan failed to reach the southern border in time, the Western Route Army of Xishan State easily entered the western part of Jinshan State and advanced northward smoothly.
However, the Eastern Route Army of the Western Son State was confronted by a team led by Kaneki, and the two teams fought fiercely in the border area.
Although the two armies encountered urgently and fought suddenly, due to the two advantages of the team led by Kaneki, the East Route Army of Xishan State was defeated, and after losing the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers, it retreated to the territory of Xishan State.
The team led by Jin Mu has more than 50,000 soldiers, almost exceeding the 20,000 soldiers of the Xishan Bangdong Route Army, and is naturally in an advantageous position in terms of combat effectiveness.
Secondly, the more than 10,000 soldiers who had just joined the Jinmu team were originally garrisons stationed at the border, and they were not only very familiar with the terrain of the border, but also hated the Xishan State troops who came to attack. Therefore, they took the initiative to flank the Xishan Bang team, and as a result, they dealt a heavy blow to the Xishan Bang team from the left flank, causing the Xishan Bang team to collapse the battle line and start to flee.
These two advantages made the battle a success.
However, the high-level leaders of Xishan State believed that their team had won one victory and one defeat, and that there was still a possibility of victory, so they once again added 20,000 soldiers to the Eastern Route Army, bringing the number of soldiers of the Eastern Route Army to more than 40,000.
This made the commanders of the Xishan Bangdong Route Army even more happy, and they immediately decided to strike while the iron was hot, and take advantage of the anger of the soldiers to attack again.
