In the early morning of October, the weather has become a little cooler, and the sky is not completely bright yet, but somewhere on the south bank of the Maputra River is already crowded with people, and wooden boats, rafts, and bamboo rafts of different sizes are constantly coming from the river bank. They swam quietly out of the forks, ditches, and culverts. Although it was very messy, they seemed quite quiet. The soldiers were wearing armor and carrying guns. They quickly gathered from the chaotic skirmish formation into a long team and began to board the moored shore one after another. On the raft beside.
The Maputra River, which has just gone through the rainy season, is nearly half as wide as normal, and the reeds on both sides of the river have become the best natural place to hide boats. Wherever the breeze passes, the endless reeds make a wave-like sound. Voice. Following the commander's order, the tools for crossing the river that had been prepared for a long time rushed out of the darkness and saw the light of day.
Seeing that fish belly white would soon appear on the horizon, the commander who was sweating profusely breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the first wave of troops crossing the river was ready. The darkness that was about to break out in the sky was the enemy's most lax defense. At one moment, your troops must be assembled and prepared in a short period of time, and then cross the wide Maputra River within the specified time. They must also form a combat formation in a very short period of time to protect the follow-up troops, and ultimately win. Complete the river crossing mission.
Although there are spies from their own side on the other side to conduct reconnaissance information at any time, judging from the information currently available, most of the enemy's troops have not yet realized that this is the beginning of the Four Kingdoms War that will shock the world. However, the battlefield is constantly changing, and no one can guarantee that the enemy will Will it appear on the other side of the river at the next moment? If that is the case, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for our side.
As the raised flag suddenly waved down, waves suddenly appeared on the wide river. Countless boats and rafts, large and small, slowly moved to the opposite bank under the powerful paddling of the oarsmen. Such a huge There was no other sound from his movements, only the sound of wooden oars hitting the water surface was heard.
Tucker's burly figure is like a statue, standing motionless on the bank, his eyes fixed on the river bank in front of him, his face expressionless, but if you look closely, you can find that his face looks very stiff, and his forehead is very stiff. There were stains of sweat all over the body, obviously due to nervousness. After all, this was a life-and-death smuggling. Once discovered by the enemy, they could take advantage of the situation where their own side had no ability to attack and wipe out their troops on the river. Of course, the premise is that the enemy must be prepared in advance and must have a considerable amount of blocking force, but from the current point of view, this round of our side is considered a success.
Thousands of sails competed and hundreds of boats competed for the current, presenting a magnificent scene on the vast river, but this scene did not last long. The enemy's patrol troops on the other side soon discovered the problem here, but that was already Three hours later, two waves of troops from the south bank had been transported over. About 5,000 people had formed a team with considerable combat effectiveness. The opponent's patrol force was only a few hundred people and was quickly wiped out, but it was obvious that Information about Pasha's troops smuggling across the Maputra River would appear on the enemy commander's desk.
At five o'clock in the morning on October 9, 694 in the continental calendar, General Takrik of the Pasha Kingdom led more than 30,000 people from his Third Corps to sneak into the Pompeii area on the upper reaches of the Maputra River. After the sacrifice of more than 3,000 people, After the loss, they successfully crossed the river and defeated and annihilated more than 5,000 Luzon local troops who came to intercept them. Then they marched westward along the river bank and captured the important town of Weixi on October 12, and occupied the important ferry on the Maputra River. Ten Zhe Ferry. Beginning on October 13, under the cover of Takrik's Third Corps, the main force of the Pasha Kingdom began to forcibly cross the Maputra River from Shizhe Ferry on a large scale. Within two days, 200,000 troops crossed the Maputra River from Shizhe Ferry. The south bank of the Tra River crosses the river and enters the hinterland of Luzon.
On October 15, Dayan led the First, Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, and Ninth Corps of the Pasha Kingdom to engage in the famous Battle of Fat and Water in mainland history with the Luzon army of 100,000 who came to intercept it. Dayan took advantage of the opponent's eagerness to fight to lure the enemy deeper, and used superior forces to divide and surround him in one fell swoop. On October 19, the Battle of Feishui ended. In addition to the more than 20,000 remaining enemies who broke through, the remaining 70,000 and 40,000 were wiped out, and three More than 10,000 people surrendered, and Yuli, the son of Prime Minister Brundtland, the leader of the Luzon side, was seriously injured.
At the same time, the 200,000-strong army of the Principality of Komini crossed the border on the night of October 8 and rushed directly into Luzon. After encountering repeated resistance, they quickly invaded more than 300 kilometers inside Luzon. The coach of western Luzon, Crew The husband adopted a shrinking defense in the face of the enemy, and before the enemy occupied it, he carried out a clearing of the area that was about to be lost. He took away everything that could be taken away, and destroyed everything that could not be taken away, and the people also hid in the mountains. Or retreat to the rear with the retreating army. Kruff formed a solid defense line in Big Pine Forest City, the most important city in the west, as well as two nearby important checkpoints and fortresses, Yingbi Pass and Fort Sieber, and urgently recruited 50,000 reservists to join them, which greatly eased the pressure on the Western Front. dangerous situation. Comini's 200,000-strong army was unable to attack the city of Big Pine Forest for a long time, but suffered considerable losses. The western battle situation reached a stalemate.
On October 22, the 14th and 15th regiments of the Pasha Kingdom crossed the river from Feichi in the middle reaches of the Maputra River. Due to the defeat at Feishui, the Luzon side actually had no power to stop the enemy from crossing, so they gathered here The Pasha army on the north bank of the Maputra River has as many as nine regiments and more than 260,000 people, and has formed a pincer offensive, aiming directly at Gyasi, an important town in southern Luzon and the second largest city in Luzon.
A huge army marched quickly on the border between Wusun and Luzon. Judging from their appearance, they should belong to the army of Wusun. But at this time, if anyone knew a little about the situation in Wusun, they would know that this army The army will never belong to the Wusun Kingdom, and there is no infantry team with such combat effectiveness in the entire Wusun Kingdom.
"Division Commander, whose territory should our current location belong to?" Helianbo, who was full of thoughts, was riding on his horse and carefully looking at the map. He was thinking about fighting while Liang Chongxin was reviewing the march of the troops with great interest. .
"It doesn't matter who it belongs to. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. In such a remote area, who will take care of us at this time? The people of Luzon are already burning their butts and their eyes are staring at the south and west. How can they care about this place? Wusun At the moment, people are probably busy discussing with other countries how to unite to deal with the Luobi people's extortion, and they have no time to spy on their neighbor Luzon who has always gotten along well with them, so our 'Wusun' army is You won't encounter any trouble." Liang Chongxin didn't even turn his eyes, still looking happily at his rapidly advancing troops.
"Well, I think the location we are in still belongs to Luzon, but I won't think about it for long before it changes its owner." Helian Bo grinned while stroking the fluffy beard under his chin.
"Yes, according to the speed we are traveling, we will reach Shuangduiji in three or four days. When we get there, I need to take a good bath. I have been marching for several days without even taking a comfortable bath. It is really uncomfortable. "A cheerful voice added in.
"Young Master Yi, you are not a woman. Do you need to be so particular?" He Lianbo laughed at his colleague. Linghu Yi was younger and was affectionately called Master Yi by Liang Chongxin and He Lianbo, or Yi for short. few.
"Boss Helian, I don't dare to compare with you. You are a bear. The less you take a shower, the harder it will be." Linghu Yi counterattacked with a smile.
"You said that your Excellency requires us not to take other major actions for the time being after arriving at Shuangduiji. We are only required to unite local ethnic groups to establish an autonomous government. What is the ultimate goal?" Liang Chongxin, who had been reviewing the troops, suddenly asked a question.
"Maybe we are asked to help the local people who support us consolidate our rule." Linghu Yi replied thoughtfully.
"But the Luzon army should be dealing with the Komini attack now. There is no spare power to deal with us. We can completely sweep the entire north. Those local armies are not enough for us to fill the gap." Helianbo retorted. road.
"What do you think, division commander?" Linghu Yi asked when he saw Liang Chongxin shaking his head, obviously disagreeing with the two people's opinions.
"I can't guess what your lord is thinking, but I think it must be related to the Komini people." Liang Chongxin said thoughtfully.
"Are you saying that Mr. Li is worried that our excessive actions will affect the Luzon people's defensive strength on the Western Front?" Linghuyi responded very quickly.
"It is possible that the invasion force of the Cominis will definitely be stronger than the defensive force of the Luzon people in the west. If we continue to contain part of the Luzon people's military strength, I am afraid that the Luzon people's western front will be in a hurry. But this way we can unite The Kominis and Pashas will divide Luzon among themselves." Helianbo's ambitions were even greater.
Slowly shaking his head, Liang Chongxin looked at the advancing army and said: "I think your thoughts must be more profound. Our strength may be a little weaker. After all, they are two countries, and there is an empire above us. I’m taking care of it.”
"The Empire? They don't care about me! This northwest country was conquered by Mr. Li and his brothers with every drop of blood and sweat. When the Luo Bei people were rampant here, the dignitaries in the center of the empire only pretended to be deaf and dumb. , I don’t even dare to say a fart, why should I point fingers at this time?!” When he mentioned the center of the empire, Helianbo became furious, his evil nature was revealed, and he used vulgar words again and again.
"Helian, you are a senior officer of the empire. Don't say these words in the future, and pay attention to the occasion." Although Liang Chongxin warned Helian Bo verbally, there was no blame in his tone, and he seemed to agree with his words.
"Two division commanders, depending on Master Li's intention, we in the northwest will definitely not lose the fast brand of the empire for now. As for the future, as the situation changes, the surname in the northwest will be Li or Situ. Hehe, then it will be our northwest. People have the final say. When the time comes, Mr. Li just wants the northwest to not have the surname Li, and I'm afraid the people won't agree, don't you think?" Ling Huyi's words were even more unscrupulous, with hints of rebellion.
"Yes, it's up to Mr. Li whether he wants to wear the yellow robe." As soon as He Lianbo said this, if anyone in the court was here, they would know that the yellow robe was an allusion to the previous dynasty, and it was a rebellion. .
"Okay, let's not talk about these things. Of course, adults have to worry about these things. The thoughts of our adults are beyond the comparison of our few pieces of material. As soldiers, we should calmly carry out orders and prepare ourselves well. War is the right thing to do." Liang Chongxin waved his hand to stop his subordinates from speaking nonsense. After all, although he agreed with the two men's views, it seemed a bit inappropriate to say these words at this time.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone quietly on the hill. Under the hill, there was a busy scene of people shouting and horses neighing. Tents were erected one by one. The logistics troops had even started to light fires for cooking. Wu Feng looked past the people under the hill. A shallow hill covered with bushes, over there is the border of Luzon. At this time, there is no need to make any cover or disguise. A fool can also see what it means for these tens of thousands of fully armed troops to march to the border between the two countries.
But at this time, Luzon knew it and could not make any reaction. Their army had been completely restrained by the fighting in the south and west. They did not expect or have any energy to control what would happen in the far northeast.
