Tong Rui, the leader, turned his eyes and smiled slightly at the officer in charge of the inspection in Tianyue Kingdom, and said respectfully: Brother, look, my more than 100 cars are all dowry for the princess, gold, silver, jewelry, agate, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, many of which are rare treasures. Please make your moves lighter when searching.
Well, I got it, don’t talk too much!
The officer seemed very impatient and used the saber in his hand to open the curtain on the car. Seeing that there were gold bricks inside, he couldn't help but lit up and carefully turned over. There were weapons hidden in the bottom mezzanine on the car, and it had to be thoroughly searched to discover it.
Tong Rui's eyes rolled again, and two brilliances flashed. He wanted to continue searching such cars, and he would inevitably show his flaws. He immediately winked at his subordinates. Someone handed over a cloth bag prepared in advance, and pressed his hands heavily.
He stepped forward to Officer Tianyue and laughed: This guy, you can do it!You see, we have so many cars, if we check them one by one, we will get to go to the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month!
After saying that, he secretly handed the bag to the officer.
That day, Officer Yue took the bag and put it on. It was so heavy. He didn't know what good things he had put on. When he moved his heart, his expression immediately calmed down. As the saying goes, money can make the devil push the grinding, which is true.
With money to open the way, the convoy passed quickly. The so-called inspection was also simple and no problems were found. Tong Rui felt a little relieved, and this level was finally over.
According to the plan, after crossing Beiyin Mountain Pass, the second stop is Hulang Pass, and the key battle will begin.
Long Hao has been waiting for news in the capital these days, and he is worried. After all, this move is dangerous. Maybe he will not only lose more than a thousand lives, but the most important thing is that even his beloved sister Princess Biyao cannot be spared.
He has always sought stability in danger and won in stability, and hopes to win by surprise this time.
Two days later, Long Hao was reviewing the memorial in the imperial study room, and suddenly the deacon and eunuch came to me and said: "Your Majesty, eight hundred miles of urgent report are sent in front of you. Please check it out."
When Long Hao heard this, he put his pen next to the inkstone, reached out to take the report ahead and opened it. He couldn't help but feel happy. After Tong Rui's marriage team arrived at Hulang Pass, he launched a raid overnight, took down Hulang Pass in one fell swoop, and sent out a signal flare. The 100,000 troops of the Dayu Kingdom ambushed at Yinshankou, led by the main general Xu Gan, rushed into the territory of Tianyue Kingdom. The next day, he met at Hulang Pass and won the first battle.
Long Hao was happy when he looked at the memorial and immediately ordered Xue Zhaowu to lead an army of 200,000 to Youzhou overnight to help the Xu Gan army in the territory of Tianyue Kingdom. In addition, he ordered Meng Guangwen, the governor of Zhuozhou, who was adjacent to Youzhou, to lead a 100,000 army as the second route and headed straight to Baisha City, an important city in the northern part of Tianyue Kingdom.
After the division of troops and generals were completed, Long Hao felt relieved, handled the government affairs every day, insisted on practicing martial arts, and waited for good news ahead.
But three days later, the storm suddenly changed, and the memorial ahead flew to Long Hao like snowflakes, which was all unfavorable news.
First of all, the 100,000 army at Hulang Pass was surrounded by 200,000 troops from Tianyue Kingdom to reinforce. Although Meng Guangwen's 100,000 army successfully occupied Baisha City, it was unexpected that it was indeed an empty city plan. The next day, the 100,000 people were surrounded by twice the number of enemy soldiers in Baisha City.
Xue Zhaowu's 200,000 troops rushed to rescue, but unexpectedly they were blocked by the enemy to the Beiyin Pass. The subsequent food and grass were not available, and the action was slow.
Long Hao couldn't sit still when he saw this memorial. 200,000 people were trapped in Tianyue Kingdom. If the entire army was wiped out, it would be a crushing defeat, and the Tianyue Kingdom would take advantage of the victory to pursue the war, and the capital would be in danger.
Therefore, Long Hao immediately decided to spend the whole country to raise food and grass, draw 100,000 elite troops from the Imperial Guard, form a third army, and he personally led the army to Tianyue Kingdom to rescue the emergency. He asked to stay and wait for assistance for at least one month.
This was his second personal expedition, and it was also the most critical one. Last time, he just quelled the Jiangnan rebellion and destroyed the Nandi of the small country. This time he fought directly with his main opponent, Tianyue Kingdom, and the start was a good start, but as the real war deepened, it was extremely unfavorable to him at present. Two hundred thousand people were trapped, and this battle was enough to change the entire situation.
Long Hao personally supervised the 100,000 troops and rushed to the Youzhou border day and night. This time he went on an expedition, he took away most of the military generals in the court who could kill and fight. The female generals Chen Yuechan and Princess Nandi Naliya who were taken in the past also went on the expedition with the army. They were originally Long Hao's concubines, but this time they also asked for support.
The emperor took two concubines to fight in person, which was the first time in the history of the Dayu Kingdom and a miracle that future generations could not surpass.
The army rushed for more than ten days, and good news came on the way. Xue Zhaowu's army finally captured Yinshan Pass, leaving behind 50,000 new troops to guard the gate of Yinshan Pass. The remaining troops were divided into two groups to rescue the surrounded people at Hulang Pass and Baisha City. The battle situation was slightly reversed.
Long Hao led his army to Yinshan Pass, met with Xue Zhaowu, and then held an emergency military meeting to discuss the next specific actions.
Xue Zhaowu first reported the current situation of the battle: The emperor said that I have divided the troops into two groups to rescue Hulang Pass and Baisha City, but the enemy forces are huge. This time, the king of Tianyue Kingdom, Ugesu, sent troops and marshal Huerdan, who gathered more than 500,000 troops, which was evenly matched with our army. A decisive battle is inevitable. The opponent's battle situation is right in time, place and people, and the situation in our army is very critical.
Long Hao said: They have 500,000 people, and I have sent more than 500,000 troops this time. We are not at a disadvantage in terms of number of people. The main thing is how to find the enemy's weaknesses and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop.
Xue Zhaowu nodded and said: It's Ah, Tianyue Kingdom is a horse-shang nation. Their cavalry is very powerful. Most of us are infantry and are at a disadvantage.
Long Hao's eyes rolled and he said in a deep voice: Is there any good way to deal with the cavalry?
Xue Zhaowudao: According to years of experience in fighting with the Tianyue Kingdom, cavalry is suitable for fighting on plains and grassland battlefields, not suitable for mountains and hills, and should occupy favorable terrain. Long-range artillery and crossbows can be used. The hook and sickle gun that specializes in cavalry can be used at close range. At present, our army has a hook and sickle gun regiment, with a total of more than 10,000 people, but it is still far from enough to deal with the enemy cavalry and insufficient weapons.
Long Hao nodded and said: Well, I will order the rear to step up the production of hook and sickle spears, train soldiers, and transfer all cannons from all over the country to the front line to fight the enemy to the death!
At this time, Qin Lang, the Minister of War, offered advice: Emperor, I have a suggestion, I don’t know whether to talk about it or not.
Long Hao said seriously: But it’s okay!Now is a critical moment for the war between the two countries. As long as it is beneficial to the situation, I will adopt it.
Qin Lang said: I think that the Tianyue is not a monolithic part. There are some ethnic minorities in the Tianyue Kingdom, and there are many conflicts with the dominant Tianyue tribe. For a long time, the Tianyue tribe has adopted a high-pressure national policy, and many ethnic minorities are dissatisfied. If we can make use of it, we will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Long Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this and said with a smile: What do you mean is to unite with the ethnic minorities in Tianyue territory, promise them to benefit, and bring them over to cooperate with us to fight against the Tianyue Army together?
Qin Lang smiled and said: Yes, as I know, on the Taramir grassland at the foot of Dayin Mountain, there is a heroic and combative nomadic Nik. It has been oppressed by the Tianyue tribe for a long time and has a strong hatred and can be used.
Long Hao said: Then I will send you as an envoy to lobby the Ranik tribe. As long as they are willing to help our Celestial Army and destroy the Tianyue Kingdom in the future, I promise to put this grassland under their jurisdiction, and be granted the title of vassal kings for generations and enjoy the blessing of our Celestial Power.
After Qin Lang received the order, he immediately stepped down and prepared, but at present, lifting the siege of Hulang Pass and Baisha City is the top priority.
Long Hao has a army of 100,000, and it became the key to which city to save first. He took out a military map secretly drawn by the intelligence personnel in front and spread it out. He found that Hulang Pass was closer to the current camp and Baisha City was far away. According to common sense, he should fight Hulang Pass first and then break Baisha City.
However, after repeated research, Long Hao and Xue Zhaowu decided to send surprise troops to the contrary, to seek near and to first attack and rescue Baisha City, but unexpectedly, because Baisha City does not have a slim waist, easy to attack and difficult to defend, and the geographical conditions are harsh, and those who fly sand and stones are all desert areas. If the 100,000 Dayu National Army trapped in Baisha City are not rescued as soon as possible, it is very likely that they will be attacked by the Tianyue National Army outside and the entire army will be wiped out.
In comparison, Hulang Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the location is dangerous. There is sufficient food and grass in the pass, so it will not be a problem to stick to it for a month, so it is put to rescue until the end.
After the combat plan was formulated, the army set out the next day, marched day and night for two days before reaching the Baisha City.
I saw white sands everywhere in front of me, and countless horns were battalions under the city, flags were waving, people were joking and horses were neighing. The first group of rescuers sent by Xue Zhaowu was already fighting with the enemy in full swing.
As soon as Long Hao arrived, the 100,000 new forces immediately reversed the situation. The army charged forward and rushed to Baisha City. The inside and outside were in a fierce battle. The two sides fought fiercely for a day and night, killing the sky and the earth, the sun and the moon were gone. The army of Tianyue Kingdom retreated like a tide, leaving thousands of corpses.
The army of the Dayu Kingdom took advantage of the victory and pursued it. The 200,000 troops returned and two days later, they rushed to the Hulang Pass.
The 100,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry were besieged by Hulang Pass. The head was Huerjin, the eldest son of Huerdan, the marshal of Tianyue Kingdom, who was the vanguard of the army this time.
I saw the gate wide open, and a group of people came out, neatly arranged a square formation, and started calling the battle.
How could the Dayu army show weakness? General Xue Zhaowu immediately ordered people to set up a formation, and the two armies confronted each other and prepared to fight.
Long Hao gathered his eyes under the Huangluo umbrella and looked at the opposite side. He saw two black and white horses standing under the middle coach's flag, which were a black and white, who could wading in the mountains and rivers and running.
The dark horse immediately sat on a single general, his face was as bright as the bottom of a black pot, his eyes suddenly became violent, and he was a beard, densely packed, looking like a brave general. This person was Huerjin, the vanguard of the southern expedition of Tianyue Kingdom.
Well, I got it, don’t talk too much!
The officer seemed very impatient and used the saber in his hand to open the curtain on the car. Seeing that there were gold bricks inside, he couldn't help but lit up and carefully turned over. There were weapons hidden in the bottom mezzanine on the car, and it had to be thoroughly searched to discover it.
