As if he felt the murderous intent coming from the coach, the person he respected the most, Ha Xian felt a little guilty for a moment. He had never seen the coach behave like this. It turned out that Uler, known as the three heroes of Luo and Bei, had already fallen. , and Besang also retired sadly, only he was still able to carry the banner of revitalizing the Luo Bei clan.
In his heart, Ha Xian actually admired the commander in front of him who had given him so much help. However, in the past few years, Ha Xian had served in the Southern Conquest Army and the Guard Army. He was fortunate enough to enter the Council of Elders to observe some major decisions about the clan. , he was also able to hear various experiences that he had previously been unable to hear in the grassroots army. Accumulating bit by bit, he gradually felt that his nation was gradually struggling in the long river of history. If he did not change his course, he would eventually be eliminated. The cruel reality eliminated them, and the result was that they would never be seen again, just like those countless peoples who were glorious for a while and then blown away by the rain and wind in the history of the Tengger Grassland. He did not want his The nation finally got there.
Ha Xian could also guess a thing or two about the deep thoughts of the stern-faced commander in front of him. In the eyes of the other party, he had undoubtedly transformed into a person who was frightened by the power of the Tanghe people. He must be true to his word. Tang He has become the most harsh words among those in the clan who are sarcastic and sarcastic about his colleagues who have the same views as him. Ha Xian can understand the other party's inner views, but his own ideas are difficult for the other party to accept. However, this does not change Ha Xian. Views.
"Commander, maybe Ha Xian's opinion is a bit unpalatable, but please believe that Ha Xian's passion is definitely for the sake of our Luo Bei clan, and he has absolutely no selfish thoughts." He took a deep breath. Ha Xian met the coach's bright eyes and said calmly: "My personal opinion is that we should stop here and announce to the outside world that we are conducting military exercises and end this operation!"
"Is this your suggestion and opinion?" Tu Da pressed.
"Yes, this is what Hasian thinks deep in his heart. Of course, you are the coach, and the decision is yours. Hasian is just a suggestion." Hasian also knows that his opinions are difficult to be accepted by the other party. He is just worried that he will overdo it. Conquest. Having angered the people of Tanghe and given them too many excuses, the already full-fledged Li Wufeng will soon start a battle to unify Tanghe. Once the battle of unification is over, where will the huge Tanghe army be directed? Will the Luobei people continue to fight or surrender? These issues are quite realistic and thorny. We need to calm down and carefully analyze the unpredictable situation on the mainland and compare the strengths of all parties before we can come up with a more rational strategy. However, the coach in front of us believes in maintaining the independence of the Luo Bei clan. It seems to be too persistent, even to the point of disregarding the balance of power between all parties. This is also what Ha Xian regrets the most. He who knows the current affairs is a wise man. This ancient proverb of the Tanghe people is very suitable for the current Luobei people to a certain extent, but it seems that not many people within his own nation can see this. many.
Suddenly he smiled. Tu Da's expression seemed to relax suddenly, "Ha Xian, what do you think? If we go back home like this, the Tanghe people will live in harmony with us, and the current peace between us and the Tanghe people can always be maintained." The situation?"
He was stunned for a moment. Ha Xian didn't expect that the coach's question would suddenly turn in such a big circle. He thought about it for a while and then solemnly replied: "No, Commander, you also know that using Li Wufeng's power to unify Tanghe is impossible. Sooner or later, no one can stop his progress. Once he unifies Tanghe, it will be an unprecedentedly huge empire. All other countries can only tremble in front of him. By then, no one can avoid this The reality is unavoidable for us Luobi people. We must face it."
"Since Hassan, you also think that the Tanghe people cannot maintain this peaceful situation with us, why can't we find opportunities to defeat him and defeat him, just like ten years ago, so that they can never pose a threat to us?" Tu Da also calmed down and asked calmly. He also needed to understand why his subordinate, who once admired him so much, became such a complete pro-Tanghe faction.
"Commander, this is the difference between your views and mine. You always think that we can still show off our power in front of the Tanghe people as before, but you have not seen the great changes in the Tanghe people in the past ten years. War cannot solve all problems. The ultimate goal of war is to determine the destination of interests. Without a strong economic foundation to back it up, how can you win a big war? Even if we can defeat the Tanghe people once, twice, and three times with the bravery and successful tactics of our soldiers , but the Tanghe people can make a comeback very quickly with their almost endless war resources, consuming our limited strength time and time again, because they have an unprecedentedly strong economic foundation as the backing, but what about us? We lose a battle and are injured. Bones, if we lose two battles, our vitality will be severely damaged. If we lose three battles, we will be exterminated. If we don’t even survive until three battles, our surrounding neighbors will dismember us and tear us into pieces!”
The inspiring words made Tu Da and Kuerduo fall into silence for a while. Although the other party's words were a bit exaggerated in some aspects, they should be realistic in general. Once Li Wufeng unified the Tanghe Empire, this unprecedented situation would A powerful empire can indeed destroy any country or force it wants to destroy. No one can predict where it will point its spearhead.
"Commander, if Li Wufeng was already Situ Mingyue's age, maybe I would agree with you. We can try our best to find ways to attack the Tanghe people's power, or we can patiently deal with the Tanghe people and delay it as long as possible. Time, but Li Wufeng is less than thirty years old now. Even if his successor is a complete loser, he still has at least twenty years of power. In less than ten years, he has swept the entire Tang Dynasty. More than half of the territory of the River Empire is taken out by a large area of land in the Central Continent. With this situation, how long do you think we can evade?"
Hasian's last words swept through the hearts of Tu Da and Kurdo like wind and sea rain, causing waves of waves, "It is precisely because we cannot escape, and we cannot sit still and wait for death. The survival of a nation is definitely not We can do it through humiliation. Our only way is to fight and fight to the end! Use all means to weaken his power as much as possible and combine all the forces we can. We Luobei people may have too many illusions like yours and Tang Dynasty. The He people's peace talks and those who took advantage of the opportunity to benefit from the Tanghe people made the Tanghe people's power spread so quickly. What we need to do most now is to completely cut off this chain of interests! There is still a long way to go for Li Wufeng to unify Tanghe. It will be long and there are still many ups and downs. Even if he unifies Tanghe, he will still face many united enemies. We still have a chance. If we are frightened and give up completely, then we really have no chance! "Tu Da's words resounded like a bell in the big tent. Kurdo's originally dim eyes became bright again, and his slightly red cheeks showed that he was not in a calm mood.
"A wise man does not go against the trend. Since the commander-in-chief's view is this, Ha Xian has nothing to say anymore. Let's just pretend that Ha Xian has never said anything." He had already expected this result, and Ha Xian did not Surprised, he lowered his eyelids and said calmly.
The Luo Bei army swept across the East Tengger Grassland like locusts. The Luo Bei cavalry, divided into three attack arrows, swept across in three directions: north, east and south. The north line aimed at Daqing Mountain, while the east line aimed directly at the northwest. County, while the southern front quickly crossed the border and swept through all the prefectures in the Western Region with murderous intent.
Daqingshan was the first to be sacked. Although the northern front army had the smallest number of Luobei cavalry, the Daqingshan front line had actually given up resistance long ago, so there was no armed force in the entire area that could pose a threat to the bandits. Various shops and shops in Daqingshan Prefecture were looted, many workshops were burned to the ground, and many properties of Tubu merchants and Tanghe merchants suffered heavy losses.
The eastern front was the focus of the Luo Bei army's attack. More than 200,000 troops flooded through Wulanji like a flood. All properties, whether those of the Luo Bei people or other tribesmen, were plundered crazily without exception. The Luobi merchants who had the last hope of the army suffered the cruelest blow. Textile, weaving, and leather workshops were smashed and burned. Those Luobi merchants who had close relations with the Tanghe people were even captured and tortured to demand that they admit to being related to the Tanghe people. Xijiang colluded to seize the interests that originally belonged to the Luobei people. The heads hung as warnings on Wulanji were spread throughout the market streets, and the entire Wulanji became a completely human area.
Although the 1st and 3rd Corps stationed on the Tengger Grassland tried their best to delay the opponent's advancement, facing the Luo Bei Cavalry whose strength far exceeded their own, all they could do was delay, and they could not Change the course of the war. Five days after Ulanji was looted, Huohuaji received the same treatment. Fortunately, all the merchants who had received news of the tragedy in Ulanji had already evacuated in advance. The entire Huohuaji became an empty town. Luo Bei, who could not find an excuse to vent, had After the people looted everything that could be looted, they burned the entire Spark Set into a piece of scorched earth, and then continued to advance eastward.
The Luobi people encountered almost no decent resistance on the northern and eastern fronts. Even the 1st and 3rd Ranger Regiments of Western Xinjiang had no choice but to evade the Luobi people after several encounters with them. Shifting southward, the center of gravity of the war gradually approached the Western Region and Northwest County.
