Chapter 401: The War Begins!
All 10,000 soldiers in Tubo were killed, and the shocking news reached the country of Tubo, and the king of Tubo fainted directly to the ground in fright.
A month later, the Khitan sent 100,000 troops to invade the Wuzhou border again, and more than a dozen cities of all sizes around it fell one after another.
The border is urgent!
Wu Zetian didn't seem to be surprised or surprised except for being furious after receiving the news.
"Finally appeared, hmph, since that's the case, let's fight, why not be afraid of him a little Khitan barbarian!" Wu Zetian said in the court.
"Spread my will, let Hei Tooth Changzhi lead his troops to stop the Khitan's footsteps, let him not worry, the imperial court will soon send troops to support!" Wu Zetian said.
After pondering for a while, Wu Zetian said to Shangguan Wan'er beside him: "Write another secret edict to Qin Ying, let him lead the 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' to quickly support General Heizhi Changzhi, obey the orders of General Heizhi Changzhi, be sure to block the footwork of the Khitan army for half a month, and the army of the imperial court will definitely arrive in half a month!"
Shangguan Wan'er said: "Obey!"
...
It turned out that Wu Zetian had long known that the Khitan would send troops, and the vision of 'glowing confusion and manifestation' could not be caused by a small Tubo country, if there was no Khitan instigation behind him, it would not dare to send troops to Wu Zhou if it was given a hundred dares to invade the Tubo country.
Everything suddenly became clear, the Khitan, as one of the most powerful clans on the grassland, they have been recuperating over the years, and their total strength has already reached 500,000!
The Khitan has been watching the territory of Wuzhou for more than a year or two, and over the years, they have occasionally created some small frictions on the border, and their wolf ambitions are obvious!
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before they sent troops to invade, but Wu Zetian didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
From the moment the 'Luminous Confusion Appeared', Wu Zetian had a faint premonition, coupled with the predictions of the National Teacher and Tai Shiling, Wu Zetian had long been on guard against the Khitan, so the 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' was one of her big backers, sending them to the Western Regions, in addition to supporting Dugu Lantai, was to make them ready to deal with all emergencies at all times.
Now that it has finally come true, this 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' will naturally come in handy!
In the border camp, Qin Ying led the '3,000 Red Armor Army' and the 5,000 elite divisions of the Black Tooth Changzhi round.
Both of them act on orders, they are colleagues in the military circles, they have heard of each other for a long time, and they are not too strangers, plus they are both well-known heroes and fierce generals on the battlefield.
They are all temperamental, and they soon chatted together.
Hei Tooth Chang Zhi was born in a poor family, and he was able to achieve today's achievements and status, all of which he single-handedly fought and killed with a knife and a shot on the battlefield with his life, for this person, Qin Ying admired it from the bottom of his heart.
Qin Ying looks quite beautiful now, because he is a second-generation soldier, not only does everyone give him some face everywhere, but he is completely relying on the behemoth of the Qin family, the military world.
Although the Jiangmen family is not as powerful as those super gate valve families, in the imperial court, in the court, and even in the entire military world, the power of the Jiangmen family is incomparable.
Sometimes, they speak better than the emperor.
But Qin Ying doesn't like this kind of aura of the second generation of the army, in the eyes of others, as long as he is covered by his fathers in this life, the future is quite immeasurable.
But Qin Ying didn't want to do this, he wanted to rely on his own strength to fight for a brilliant future on the battlefield!
Five days later, the Khitan army pressed the border, and Hei Tooth Changzhi and Qin Ying were resolutely not afraid, arranged their troops, and coped with it freely.
The battle was fierce, and the 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' appeared for the first time in front of the Khitan army.
The unprecedentedly powerful battle intent and killing intent of the 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' stirred up the wind and clouds overhead, making the 100,000 Khitan army look sideways.
Under the command of Qin Ying, the 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' was like an iron-clad torrent, driving straight in, vicious and invincible.
None of the Khitan soldiers could hold out for long under the impact of this torrent, and soon, the five thousand pioneers of the Khitan were killed by the 'three thousand Red Armor Army'.
Wu Zhou's morale was greatly boosted, the cheers resounded in the sky, the war drums rumbled, and the black-toothed Changzhi laughed excitedly: "Hahaha!" The 'Three Thousand Red Armor Army' really lives up to its reputation, it is good to kill, and it is a pleasure to kill!"
In the rear of the Khitan army, the faces of several main officials who watched the battle turned blue, so they had to withdraw their troops and return to the camp temporarily, slowly drawing it!
In this way, the 5,000 Mo Sword Army led by the Black Tooth Changzhi and the '3,000 Red Armor Army' led by Qin Ying, a total of 8,000 men and horses, were stunned to stop the 100,000 Khitan army that was surging over.
The two sides fought every other day, each with casualties, but the most dead each time was still the Khitan side, which shows the strength of Wuzhou's side, although they only have only 8,000 people, but all of them are well-trained, with one enemy and ten elite soldiers, they are living for war, and only on the battlefield can they stimulate their strongest potential and lethality!
Coupled with the 5,000 heroic and skillful Modao army led by the god-like Black Tooth Changzhi, can they stop the footwork and attack of the Khitan army of 100,000? Can they hold on to the arrival of imperial reinforcements for half a month?
The war has kicked off, and the war is all together, and it is the poor people who suffer after all, but war has always been like this, extremely cruel, no matter which side wins in the end, it will be a river of blood, and the bones will be broken!
In this, there are not only the blood and bones of thousands of soldiers on both sides, but also the blood and bones of hundreds of people!
It is said that if a success, ten thousand bones will wither, but the change of a dynasty or the bloody struggle between two countries will not only dry up ten thousand bones? The disasters caused by war are incomparable, famine! Hunger! The people are displaced! There are often cases of frozen bones on the road, and there are more than hundreds of millions of bones!
...
Not to mention the war at the border pass, on the side of the imperial court, Wu Zetian sent the veteran general Wang Xiaojie, and appointed him as the general manager of the march, in charge of the handsome seal, immediately ordered the troops and horses, and led the three armies with a total of 300,000 troops from the divine capital Luoyang, approaching the border of the Western Regions, so many people, even if they accelerate their advance, it is estimated that it will take half a month to reach the border of the Western Regions!
Wang Xiaojie is also a general who can fight well, and he joined the army when he was a teenager and fought everywhere. Repeated military exploits. After Wu Zetian came to power, he moved the right eagle to defend the general.
At this time, he can be regarded as famous, and now he is leading the troops to fight again, which shows that the new emperor still trusts him very much, which makes this veteran of the battlefield who is more than half a hundred years old like a dead wood in spring, and the flame that is about to be extinguished in his heart is burning.
Even if the horse leather shroud and die on the battlefield, it is better than staying at home and waiting for death!
