Cultivation of empire in the world of immortality
Chapter 121 Conquest of Slavia
The Tianhuang Empire's decision to send troops made Qi Xiangyang, the leader of the Anjun Army, very happy. No, before we set out, we had already written to the court, requesting for the allocation of food, wages and weapons. We also wrote to the daughter in the palace to let her have more peace of mind. The Nanya Army of the Central Army, referred to as the Southern Army, received the military order. Although it could not go against the will of the imperial court, as the military force of the Prince's faction, the first thought of Chu Bieshan, the commander of the Southern Army and uncle of the Prince of Tianhuang Empire, was to preserve his strength. Bring in the cannon fodder. Only the Beiya army loyal to the emperor took action quickly, and the Ministry of War quickly replenished them with food, wages, horses and weapons. The empire's war machine quickly mobilized.
The Qin and Han Dynasties brought the Shenwu Army back to the Westbury garrison. Now that they had control over the entire territory of Westbury, it was time to develop this land of rich water and grass. Militarily, the Seabury Camp was set up, troops from the Liebei Islands were mobilized, and only one brigade of troops was left to garrison. More than a thousand people were recruited in the Liebei Islands to replace the lost personnel of the City Guards. The City Guards also received a new organization, the temporary 45th Army. It is better to maintain the highest combat organization at the regiment level, and then establish higher-level organizations based on military merit. In addition, the Qin and Han Dynasties transferred a wolf cavalry regiment from the Shenwu Army to the temporary 45th Army to strengthen its strength, making it reach the size of a Class B field army.
Here, the Qin and Han Dynasties had just completed the temporary formation of the 45th Army, and a recruitment order came from Antarctic City. It turned out that the Confederate Army's Battalion had no elites of its own, so city guards were drawn from various states to fill up the numbers. The city lords also knew clearly that they were going to die, so they all unanimously selected cannon fodder troops or disobedient generals to go to the front line. Qin and Han were selected without any suspense.
After receiving the military order, Qin and Han claimed that they only had 8,000 men left according to the last battle report, and asked for support. However, this request for help received a quick response from Antarctic City. There was no military equipment, food or salary, and only 2,000 civilians to support them. Most of these 2,000 people were relatives of the former city guard's cannon fodder troops. This wave of operations by Antarctic City officials completely chilled the hearts of the original city guards.
Cao Yujiao felt the deepest feeling. Her status was special, but the identity of the Seventeenth Princess still attracted the hostility of the soldiers of the 45th Army. Only when it was revealed that she would be the woman of the King of Qin did she feel the respect of the soldiers.
The Qin and Han Dynasties decided to take only eight regiments of the temporary 45th Army to the battle. The participating troops were determined through internal competitions. The significance of this battle to the officers and soldiers of each regiment was very clear to them. They knew whether they could advance ahead of others. Look at this time, so each group is also working hard. The knockout competition between groups quickly determined eight groups. The strongest first group, led by Shi Kaiming, defeated all challengers and was selected without hesitation. There are also 45nd, th, th, th, th, th, th and other regiments selected for the expedition. In addition, the Wolf Cavalry Regiment, which was temporarily assigned to the th Army, also accompanied the army as the Qin and Han Dynasty's personal guards. A flying cavalry regiment of the Shenwu Army was deployed for air power.
The army for the expedition has been prepared. At this moment, the enthusiasm of the soldiers on the expedition was high. They were no longer afraid of war, but eager to make achievements on the battlefield. The reason was that they were now working for the Qin and Han Dynasties. Seeing the soldiers who were marching out with great momentum, Cao Yujiao felt mixed emotions in her heart and couldn't help but clench her jade hands.
Qin and Han led their troops to the designated assembly point of the Southern Army. The Wolf Cavalry Regiment was already training with the Second Army in the ancient tower space. The other city guards did not find anything. Only some knowledgeable generals saw the Antarctic. The extraordinary thing about the City Guards. There were seventeen princesses in the army, and the Qin and Han Dynasties did not encounter any difficulties or preferential treatment. However, the commander of the 100,000-strong army was Xu Chenghai, an unimportant young general in Chubie Mountain. Qin Han was named the captain of the 30,000-man army. This was an exception because of his record of defeating the Slavic tribes.
One hundred thousand people marched towards the Ross Plateau after holding the flag of the expedition ceremony. The team was divided into front, middle and rear armies. The Qin and Han troops became the vanguard of the entire army because they had gone to the plateau. In addition to his eight thousand people, there were only three thousand of the one hundred thousand. The human team still looks a bit like an army. Two of them are in the front army with him, and one is in the middle army.
As the vanguard of the entire army, it is necessary to open roads through mountains and build bridges when encountering water. He is also responsible for detecting the enemy's situation. This time, Qin and Han brought many large vehicles, and even the coach was jealous when he saw them. However, due to the presence of the seventeenth princess, he could not take action directly. Qin and Han were not afraid of being noticed, and he would chop off anyone who dared to reach out to him. The other ministries saw that the vanguard army was running very fast and that there were few cavalry. They were very dissatisfied with the Qin and Han troops and cursed them continuously for a while. In the Southern Route Army, Qin Han deserved to be the number two figure, and even the commander-in-chief did not have 8,000 elite troops directly under his command.
When they were about to reach the plateau, the Qin and Han scouts discovered the Slavic scouts. The two sides immediately started a fight and it was a draw. The flying cavalry regiment in the air also sent a military report that 30,000 enemy cavalry were already waiting above.
Qin Han ordered people to report the military situation to the commander, but the reply he received was to continue moving forward. Qin and Han didn't care about anything else and faithfully carried out the orders. Their speed doubled and the distance between them and the army behind them was even wider. In addition, the Wolf Cavalry Group also came out of the space to act as a forward. With the addition of the Wolf Cavalry, the Slavic Scouts entered a nightmare stage, and they basically could not go back once they left the mission. With the support of aerial intelligence, Qin and Han led their troops to cleverly avoid the enemy's front. Perhaps out of contempt for the imperial soldiers, the enemy actually sent only three thousand cavalry to attack.
Seeing the enemy attacking, Qin and Han continued to avoid fighting and ordered Shi Kaiming's cavalry regiment to stop the enemy's speed. The opponent also adopts attrition tactics, just keeps driving them away and is not in a hurry to kill. In this way, the Qin and Han troops led three thousand enemies slowly away from the main enemy force, and let the wolf cavalry attack in a small scale, slowly bleeding the enemy.
Three days later, the three thousand enemies were suddenly reduced by more than a thousand, and the Qin and Han troops lost more than seventy people. Only then did the enemy realize that they were far away from the main force. In order to prevent being caught in the trap, they hurriedly retreated. However, the Qin and Han Dynasties ordered them to pursue and kill them one after another, and it was difficult for them to escape. With the full attack of the Wolf Cavalry, the enemy was wiped out after running for more than a hundred kilometers. When the Qin and Han Dynasties reported the situation to their commander, the enemy was facing off against the main force of the army. The Slavic cavalry had already charged once against the more than 90,000 imperial army. Although the battle was fruitful, it did not disrupt the army. When they wanted to charge again, the imperial army had already formed another line. Good military formation. Seeing that the imperial army seemed to have changed its nature and suddenly became brave, the Slavic cavalry commander also became cautious.
What the enemy commander doesn't know is that these cannon fodders are venting their dissatisfaction at this time, looking a bit like mourning soldiers. As long as they charge a few more waves, they can break up the fighting power of the resentment and quickly defeat the imperial army. Its establishment is a great achievement.
The enemy and ours seemed to have forgotten that each of them had an army outside. Xu Chenghai sent messengers to try to get the Qin and Han troops to return, but they were robbed and killed every time, and their bodies were thrown outside the camp for demonstration. The Slavic cavalry commander wanted to cut off his food route and trap the imperial army to death, but who knew that the Qin and Han Dynasties were also planning to do the same. He led his troops to search for food routes for the enemy's army on the plateau, and plundered all the animals as long as they were there.
This stalemate lasted for more than ten days, and the war ushered in a major turning point. The enemy came to the rescue with another 20,000 cavalry, bringing news of a disastrous defeat on the eastern route of the empire. It turned out that the Slavs used 80,000 cavalry to wait for the 50,000 Beiya army to work. Their commander was greedy for credit and fell into the enemy's plan. In the end, less than 3,000 of the 50,000 army fled back.
After hearing the news, the morale of the 90,000 South Route Army troops was immediately thrown into chaos. Commander Xu Chenghai even led his direct regiment to retreat a hundred miles. This allowed the enemy commander to seize the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack. The disorganized army of 90,000 soldiers was immediately dispersed by nearly 50,000 cavalry, and each began to fight on his own. When Qin Han arrived, they learned that the coach Xu Chenghai had been killed and the whole army was being massacred. Without saying a word, Qin and Han ordered a charge, summoned the second army in the ancient tower space, and appeared behind the enemy cavalry group.
Facing the cavalry group that appeared out of thin air behind them, the Slavic cavalry would not have guessed that someone was cheating. The strength of the Second Army was comparable to that of the Slavic cavalry, but the Qin Army had an advantage in terms of equipment.
The Slavic cavalry was also very impressive. During the pursuit, the army quickly turned around and started fighting with the second army. The flying cavalry regiment in the air also joined the battle. Under the attack in this open space, the Slavic cavalry gradually fell to earth, and then faced the Qin and Han Dynasties in person. The wolf cavalry group charged into battle. The Slavic cavalry gradually became chaotic, lost their orderly command, and were charged and killed by the Qin army. The 30,000 city troops who had escaped also stopped and began to regroup.
The battle lasted for a day and a night, and of the remaining 45 city guards, only two dissatisfied -man troops joined the battle. The cavalry battle on the plateau ended with a complete victory for the Qin Army. The Second Army cleaned up the battlefield, recorded their military exploits, and returned to the ancient pagoda space with the remains of more than a hundred comrades. The eight regiments of the temporary th Army and the Wolf Cavalry regiment lost more than a thousand people in total. It can be said that the casualties were really heavy. But the results of the battle were also huge. Fifty thousand Slavic cavalry were wiped out, and only a handful escaped.
Later, the Qin and Han Dynasties used the name of the Seventeenth Princess to forcibly recruit the remaining 30,000 city guards. The battle report was submitted to the court after Qin Han and Cao Yujiao discussed it. The Daonan Route Army destroyed the enemy's 20,000 elite cavalry at the cost of losing its commander and 70% of its soldiers. Fortunately, the seventeenth princess was ordered to lead the army to repel the enemy's 20,000 reinforcements. In addition to the Qin and Han troops, some city guards who were more obedient to him also received a share of military exploits. The two thousand-man teams that Qin and Han valued more were regarded as typical representatives, and they got a huge advantage. This made the two captains feel very guilty, but their favorable impression of Qin and Han greatly increased.
The imperial court of Tianhuang Empire first received the army from Beiya on the East Road and sank into the sand, and the entire army was wiped out. After receiving news that the Beiluan Army retreated without a fight, the capital Tianjing seemed to be shrouded in a haze, making the people depressed. When the battle report of the Southern Route Army came, Emperor Cao Dingbang specially asked the Minister of War to read the military report word for word.
When the ministers learned that the 100,000 city guards had sacrificed 70,000 and killed 20,000 enemies, they were filled with sighs. After reading the autographed letter from his daughter Cao Yujiao, Cao Dingbang said with great forgiveness, "Where is the prince?"
"Father, my sons are here"
Cao Dingbang had a gloomy face and stared at the prince Cao Chenglong without saying a word. It was not until the latter's forehead was covered with cold sweat that he said, "I am passing the decree that Chubieshan, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army, has betrayed the divine grace. He will be demoted to one rank and return to the capital as soon as possible." The seventeenth princess has made great contributions to the country, and she will be given the opportunity to open a mansion and build a government office, increase the number of households in the city by a thousand, and reward the meritorious officers and soldiers greatly."
"Your Majesty's Holy Wisdom"
"Your Majesty, please send envoys to negotiate with the barbarians so that there will be no further war."
"Your Majesty, I second my opinion to Li Zhongcheng."
"Your Majesty, I second the proposal."
……
Emperor Cao Dingbang looked at the officials who were begging for peace, and felt a surge of anger in his heart. He glanced at the generals who were cowering with gloomy eyes. After a long silence, he said "Quite". This word seemed to consume all his energy. After saying this, he signaled to the eunuch next to him, and the eunuch also shouted "Retreat".
When the emperor returned to his study, he first ordered someone to convey to Cao Yujiao an oral instruction to fight again, hoping to win another battle. Then he came to Concubine Shu's palace, which had been neglected for a long time, and chatted with Concubine Shu again about the two daughters Cao Tianjiao and Cao Yujiao.
