Chapter 142: Changes in Qingzhou
In the spring of the 43rd year of the empire, the commander of the Blizzard Legion, Sumendar, was angry that his only son was killed, and in a fit of rage, he led his troops to attack the city of Letong, causing the first major war between the military and the local government. The full-text and ad-free novels are all in Aishang Novel Network biquge.info history is known as the change of Qingzhou and the history of the Mandala Empire.
As soon as the news of Sumatdal leading 100,000 troops to attack Tongle City came out, the government and the opposition were shaken. All of a sudden, all kinds of gossip flew all over the sky.
Some people say that Sumatdar rebelled, some people say that Sumatar is rehabilitating, and some people say that Sumatar and Sima Shou are fine, they are playing. Alas, the whole world is in chaos, who knows.
When Valencia received the news of Qingzhou Letongcheng, it was already the third day. Qingzhou and the imperial capital are far apart, and the transmission of messages is too time-consuming. Three days, one qiē is already late.
Although Valencia received the news, he urgently mobilized various ministries to discuss countermeasures. However, the two largest military groups in Qingzhou started a war, and it was so easy to extinguish it.
By the time the mediator of the empire brought people to Qingzhou, it was already eleven days later. During the eleven-day military-ground battle, Sumatar used large siege tools such as thunderbolt vehicles, siege vehicles, and building vehicles, as well as nearly 100,000 troops. Among them was the most elite Guards regiment under Sumendal.
Sima Shou was also red-eyed, this Lao Tzu, when Anrong invaded Qingzhou, he didn't have a single soldier, and this started a civil war, but there was no ambiguity at all. On the one hand, he appointed Sima Wudi, the initiator of this matter, as the commander of the whole army, and led 50,000 local garrison troops in Tongle, relying on the defense of Letong City, to resist with all his might. On the other hand, on the pretext that Suman had slandered the local garrison and wanted to fight for Tongle City, he borrowed troops from other friendly towns to resist Sumatra.
Letong City is the only passage for Qingzhou to advance, and it is also the only bridgehead to prevent the expansion of the Blizzard Legion. Once it is acquired by Sumatra, then a large area of land and towns in Yanzhou may fall under the control of the Blizzard Legion.
Of course, the city guards in Yanzhou don't want to do this kind of thing, they each have a piece of territory, and the life of the soil emperor is good, and a big bear suddenly comes in, so how can it stand it.
All the towns in Yanzhou close to Letong responded to Sima Shou's recruitment and borrowed troops from Sima Shou to fight against Sumadar.
Are these towns borrowing troops for some justification or the like?
Of course not, the purpose of sending troops to help Letong City in various towns is to keep Letong from the nail and prevent the forces of the Blizzard Legion from entering the Yanzhou area. Now it's each family that calculates the interests of each family, who has the time to care about you, who is right and who is wrong.
Truth?
That's a piece of
Among the soldiers and horses of Sima Shou in the same city, Huang Chuqiu, who had just taken over and returned to the ancient city of Langtian, was the most active. Don't look at Huang Chuqiu when the people of Langtian changed and the Red Turban Army rebelled, he ran faster than a rabbit, this time, he was very fierce.
The full garrison of the ancient city of Langtian should theoretically be 50,000 people, but Huang Chuqiu did not have that many, he only had 20,000 people in total, and the other 30,000, he ate empty salaries. There are these people's names, and there are no such people.
Huang Chuqiu only had 20,000 men in his hands, but this time he lent 10,000 horses to Sima Shou in one go, and also sent his son Huang Wude to personally lead the army to Letong City to help Sima Shou fight against the blizzard army of Sumadar.
"Huang Chuqiu borrowed 10,000 troops to Sima Shou?" Hu Wei received this battle report, and was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses.
This time, Sumatdal attacked the city of Letong to vent his hatred, and Hu Wei's recruit independent regiment did not receive an order to participate in the battle. Sumendal seems to be extremely unhappy with Hu Wei, and in such an environment, he still does not forget to refrigerate Hu Wei.
The recruit independent regiment does not participate in the war, and according to the inside, this civil war has nothing to do with Hu Wei. He can sing, dance, and do whatever he wants.
But the reality is not like this, Hu Wei is busier than the State Council now. Look at his house, which is full of military maps and situational analysis maps in various aspects. In the middle of the room, there is also a huge sand table, is this an idle person?
Seizing every opportunity to learn, this is what Hu Wei has always carried out, how could he allow himself to be idle in this situation.
Hongye was classifying the latest information according to his worrying request, and when he heard the news that Zhu Daneng had just reported, he also read it. When did Huang Chuqiu become so generous.
Zhu Daneng replied: "This is the news that Hou San just sent back, the news came out a day ago, and it was your old friend Huang Wude who led the troops, and now he should be on his way to Letong." ”
Hu Wei scolded with a smile: "What is my old friend, he can't wait to eat me." He is an old friend of Momiji. ”
Hu Wei has a self-aware reputation, and with his behavior of humiliating Huang Wude in public at the tulip drinking party in the imperial capital Red Mansion, he and Huang Wude are destined to never become friends. Of course, Hu Wei would not be willing to have such a friend, and it would be almost the same to take advantage of it.
Hongye listened to Hu Wei pull Huang Wude and her together, and said, "you, just say it, don't pull me up, I listen to people like that." ”
Although the war is very tight, it is necessary to relax, and it is still necessary. If the string collapses too tightly, it will break, and the more tense it is, the more relaxed it will be, which is the theory of Hu Wei. After the joke, Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng looked at each other and smiled, and began to analyze what impact Huang Wude's transfer of 10,000 soldiers and horses would have on Tongle City and even the Qingzhou area.
"Not good"
Hu Wei, who was analyzing the shape shì, suddenly screamed. Zhu Daneng and Hongye's eyes were all on Hu Wei's body.
In this wooden house, there were only three of them, and those recruits of the independent regiment had never even seen blood, so they couldn't get into here.
Zhu Daneng and Hongye were waiting for Hu You's 'bad' to follow, after this guy came to such a sentence, he didn't say anything, grabbed a pen, looked nervous on a blank piece of paper, and kept writing and drawing.
Zhu Daneng and Hongye saw that Hu You's face was getting more and more ugly, glanced at each other, and came to Hu Wei's side together to see what he was doing. After watching it for a while, they didn't understand what Hu Wei was doing.
"Hu Wei, what's wrong, what's wrong with you?" Momiji finally couldn't help but ask.
Hu Wei didn't answer Hongye's words, but turned to Zhu Daneng and asked, "Did Huang Chuqiu really send 10,000 horses to Letong?"
Zhu Daneng saw Hu Wei's solemn face, and he didn't dare to joke anymore, and said with a serious face: "The news that Hou San sent back, there should be nothing wrong." ”
Hu Wei threw down the pen in his hand, sighed and said, "The empire is in danger." ”
Hongye still didn't understand, what Hu Wei was talking about, and couldn't help but ask again: "What's dangerous?"
Momiji asked very skillfully this time, and half of her body was next to Hu Wei's arm, in the northeast corner, pointing to a map hanging there and saying, "Come and see." ”
This map is a map of the ancient city of Langtian, because Langtian is not in the scope of this civil war, so this map is hung relatively partial, and after it is hung, it has not been marked on it. It's pretty much the same as new.
Under the gaze of Zhu Daneng and Hongye, Hu Wei's hand kept writing down strings of numbers and drawing horizontal or vertical lines on the map of Langtian City.
After Hu Wei finished this, he explained: "You have all seen it, this is the distribution of the city defense of Langtian City. Langtian is a big city, and his normal troop allocation. Hu Wei said and pointed to the number above, "During the Bauhinia Dynasty, it was 300,000, of course, that was calculated based on the defense of the imperial capital, and the number of troops was a bit too much." Its most reasonable defense force should be 100,000, while the Empire's military strength is only 50,000. ”
"It's twice as bad. Momiji answered. She seemed to understand what Hu Wei was trying to say.
"Not bad. Hu Wei nodded and said: "Langtian's 50,000 defense force was personally determined by Rijkaard more than forty years ago. Because Langtian had just experienced a devastating war at that time, it was not enough to support so many troops, so Rijkaard had no choice but to reduce Langtian's strength, but he was transferred to the Second Infantry Regiment after the Royal Cavalry Regiment at that time.
Over the years, the population of Langtian has become more and more because of the peace of the matter, I have checked the government records of Langtian, and the statistical population of Langtian City and its surroundings last year was 100,000 households, if it is counted as 20 people per household, it is 2 million people. Two million, just a little more.
The number of people has increased, but the army has never increased, and it is still 50,000 more than 40 years ago. Now that Huang Chuqiu has transferred another 10,000 Letong, Langtian only has 40,000 troops left, which will not be a problem in peacetime.
But now that Langtian has just recovered, people's hearts are unstable, and the remnants of the Red Turban Army must still be in Langtian, once something happens, it will be dangerous to come to Langtian. ”
Zhu Daneng heard Hu Wei's analysis, and his face also changed, he didn't think that the situation was so strict, listening to Hu Wei's analysis, he also felt that Langtian was very dangerous. If you don't get it right, Langtian will have problems again.
"My lord, do you mean that it is very likely that the remnants of the Red Turban Army will take advantage of this chaos in the same city and come out to make trouble again?"
"Definitely" Hu Wei didn't reply, and the red leaves on the side interjected.
"Momiji, why are you so sure?" Hu Wei looked at Momiji strangely. He had only judged that Lang Tianhui had an accident, but he couldn't be sure. And the tone of Momiji is absolute.
Hongye didn't answer Hu Wei's question immediately, she frowned, recalled for a while, and then said: "The last time I went back to the imperial capital, one day my father invited a few old friends to dinner, I remember that when I was helping to serve the food, I don't know who mentioned Huang Chuqiu, and then there was a person who said that Huang Chuqiu was wantonly eating empty wages in Langtian, and he ate 30,000 yuan for the establishment of 50,000 yuan. ”
"What?" Hu Wei stood up after a while: "Do you mean to say that Langtian actually has only 20,000 troops? Who are you listening to, is it reliable?"
This is not a joke, there were 40,000 troops before, Hu Wei was already worried about the safety of Langtian, if this is according to Hongye, Langtian has a total of 20,000 horses, and now 10,000 are transferred, Langtian In fact, there are only 10,000 horses.
10,000 horses in charge of 2 million people in the current situation, which is really too much. Anything happens and you get a big problem.
Momiji kept scratching her head because she couldn't remember who said it. At that time, she only overheard it, and she didn't take it to heart. Now that half a day has passed, it will be difficult to recall.
Momiji thought about it for a long time, and finally gave up: "I really can't remember, who said this." However, I remember that no one present at the time refuted it, and I think there should be some credibility. ”
In the wooden house, for a moment, there was silence. Although it is not possible to confirm whose mouth it came from, no one doubts the credibility of the statement.
A person who dares to ask the people to sell their sons and daughters in exchange for disaster relief food, the matter of eating empty salaries is not a big problem for him.
You must know that the Mandala Empire has been peaceful for thirty-eight years, there have been no major wars for thirty-eight years, some people's fights, just send a few people to deal with it, the army has become more than and may get huge benefits, as long as you report a false name, you can harvest a lot of gold coins, such a thing, it is really not done in vain, and it is done in vain.
As I think about this Langtian matter deeply, it seems that it is not only Langtian who has such a thing, but also the big towns of the entire empire. That's why those people at the wine table didn't talk deeply when they heard the news.
Because this has long been a secret of separation, I just mention Langtian, just because he has gone too far, or because he admires his boldness. There's nothing to say to Ben.
When the unspoken rules are not hidden, but the face is exposed to the public, everyone has become accustomed to it, and when they lose interest in discussion, the consequences of the harshness are terrifying.
At the least, the credibility of the industry will collapse, and the country will be destroyed.
Chaos has emerged
The chaos is like a girl's big feet, which have been exposed little by little. The hooligans are already wiping their saliva, each ready to get their share of the benefits from the chaos.
"What should I do?" Hu Wei asked himself in his heart. What he now has in his hands is not the Immortal Bird Special Operations Regiment selected from the elite soldiers, nor the slave camp soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles without dying, but the five thousand recruits who have never seen blood.
Although these 5,000 recruits are absolutely loyal, it is still unknown how much combat power they can have and how much role they can play in this troubled era.
Hu Wei touched his head, he was thinking too much about things these days, and he wanted to start turning around. In the end, Hu Wei decided to respond to all changes with the same, and then see the shape of all aspects clearly. There are not many hole cards in the hand, so you have to save a little to do it. Use a little, and you will have less.
Maragobi, when will Lao Tzu be richer.
The battlefield of Langtian was temporarily calm because of the mediation team, but the people on both sides had no intention of making a move. They are all gearing up and continuing the war at will.
The supervisor who came to Langtian for mediation this time, Hu Wei had a relationship, and they also drank wine and had a meal together. Su Ke, an investigator at the time of the natural disaster. At one point, he was tempted to bring Hu Wei to the Royal Cavalry Regiment.
This calculating city guard is now having a headache. Sumatar and Sima Shou are now temporarily out of fighting, but he knows that the current problem cannot be solved, and this battle will have to be fought sooner or later.
But how to solve this problem?
Now it is no longer a question of Sumendar's death of a son, but of 20,000 lives. Since the battle between Sumatra and Sima Shou, more than 20,000 people have been killed on both sides, and nearly 50,000 people have been wounded. Who are these?
Count Sumadar's son to die of old age, and the whites send the blacks, and now he is almost mad, and you are miscalculating this on his head, and he has to fight hard.
That's for Sima Shou? Sima Shou was the one who was passively beaten, and if you can find evidence that Qi Lawei was killed by his younger brother Sima Wuving, that's okay. You can also press him a little bit anyway.
But isn't there no way to prove it now, this is Sima Shou's place, not to mention killing Qi Lavi, even if he kills Su Ke, if he doesn't want to be known, it's not too difficult. How is this possible to find out.
"Why is this so unlucky, it always happens to this kind of thing. Suke said hatefully. He actually prefers and is better at civilian work than military attachés. But there are no civil servants in this empire
"My lord, my lord, Lord Suke, something is wrong. A soldier burst in, interrupting Suke's thoughts.
"What's the matter, speak slowly. Su Ke said with a calm face. Su Ke is such a temper, no matter how big things happen, he will calm down. Perhaps it was because of his temper that Valencia was used to mediate between Sumatra and Sima Shou.
Sumatar and Sima Shou were already fighting Mars, and they had to get another firestorm general, and they were still looking for two sides before they got it, and after persuasion, they became a three-sided scuffle.
"Then, they, hit, hit" Chronic son meets slow Langzhong, you ask him to slow down, he really collapses word by word.
"Whoever fights, you're here. Encountering such a messenger, even with Suke's temper, he couldn't help but be anxious: "Is Sumatar at war again?"
It doesn't seem like it, but I didn't hear the drums of war. Where exactly did the fight start.
The soldier took a heavy breath, and the situation was a little better: "It's not Le Tongcheng." It is north of Qingqingzhou, Anrong, the Lin Gui Empire, the Chihe Empire once again offended the border, the Huanglong Dao, the Yuyang Ziling, and the Lion Rock line, all of which have fallen into the hands of the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
The Triple Alliance is now using lightning speed to launch the Three-Light Advance Law of snatching, burning, and killing Qingzhou against our Qingzhou."
