The rangers that swept through the territory of Dodon left scars on the territory of Dodon. Dodon's light cavalry could not chase the fleeting rangers and could only watch helplessly as these hateful nomadic barbarians marched along. With the Dodon Kingdom's southern hinterland rampaging wantonly, the main forces have gathered along the southern border, preparing to form a coalition with Poole's army, which is also steadily moving south. This is the eastern attack group in the strategic plan, responsible for attacking Datang. Choose suitable attack points to launch the offensive on the eastern front of more than a thousand miles, from Okhotsk to Yunzhong to Yulin are all options.
However, this deployment was obviously disrupted by the sudden attack of the Tang Rangers. The entire south of Doton fell into chaos, and the central and southern town of Kutz was even more uneasy. As the main army moved south, no one expected that the Datang Rangers would At this time, they actually ignored the more than 200,000 troops stationed on the border and forced a breakthrough into the hinterland of Dodon. This once brought chaos to Kutz City, which had few defenders stationed.
Fortunately, the 60,000 rangers passed by like a hurricane. Although they left lingering pain in the southern hinterland of Doton, they finally left as quickly as they came. The Dodon people kindly reminded their neighbors to the west, the Poole people. When I accepted this uninvited guest, I was really relieved deep in my heart. These damn nomadic barbarians, even if they surrendered under the command of the Tang Dynasty, still could not change their bad nature. They burned, killed, and looted. It can be said that they did all kinds of evil and disturbed the entire south of Dodon. It was a mess, but at this time, these evil guests had been involved in the territory of Poole, and now it was the turn of the Poole people to have a headache.
It should be said that the people of Poole became vigilant when they received reports of the Tang Army's rangers invading southern Doton. In addition, the movement speed and method of their army are slightly different from Doton. They have not had time to advance all the troops to the southern border. It should be said that they are still in the process of marching. As soon as they get the news, they let all the light cavalry Deployed in the border area with the Kingdom of Duodun, hoping to squeeze these damn guys back into the Tang Dynasty.
However, the Poole people obviously overestimated the strength of their own light cavalry and took these nomadic cavalry, which had been suppressed for a long time, too simply. When they were about to enter the territory of Poole, they suddenly threw away the trap of Poole's light cavalry that had been waiting for a long time, suddenly turned around and headed north, and went straight to Hessen City, the capital of the Kingdom of Poole. This made the eastern front commander who had arrived at the southern border to start preparations for war also Poole's current commander. The number one general, General Corik, was so anxious that he almost vomited blood. In this case, he knew that the enemy might want to move the tiger away from the mountain and delay his war preparations, but he had to order all the light cavalry to catch up to the north immediately to prevent this. Helping the rude and simple-minded rangers to attack Haisen City in a fit of enthusiasm.
The two sides immediately launched a heinous chase around Haisen City for hundreds of miles. The Tang Rangers in a foreign country naturally had no scruples. What should be robbed, what should be burned, what should be burned, relying on their own fast horses and elite soldiers, more than 100,000 cavalry launched an unprecedented fierce battle on the central plain of Liberia with Haisen City as the center. The Rangers of the Tang Dynasty naturally had no scruples, but the light cavalry of Poole were tortured enough. The two sides continued to engage in small-scale battles, but Poole's light cavalry, which had a certain number of troops, could never seize the opportunity for a decisive battle. In the end, the rangers were allowed to break through and go south after harassing them for a week, and they actually gathered from the army alive. Fleeing into the territory of Jerok at the junction of southern Tipur and Kaman.
Before the furious Commander of the Poole Army, Korik, had time to recover, the gang of Tang River Rangers unexpectedly broke into Poole territory from Fanlin territory again. Taking advantage of the Poole army's relaxation, thinking that the last wave of Tang Army rangers who had escaped back to Jerok territory might take a rest, they once again swept through the southern part of Poole, turning the entire southern part of Poole upside down. The 100,000 light cavalry of the Poole army could not even regain their strength. Didn't have time to breathe evenly. This wave of rangers rushed from the territory of Poole into the territory of Duodun, and plunged from the territory of Duodun into the territory of Yunzhong like a whirlwind. The Duodun cavalry, which was originally prepared to intercept this group of Tang army rangers at the Yanshan border, and the troops behind them, The Pur's cavalry who pursued them all fell to nothing.
At the same time, the Tang Army's rangers who sprang out from Jiayuguan also stirred up gusts of wind in Kaman and Sisluo. However, Kaman and Sisluo were obviously much better prepared for this, with a grid-based defense system. Coupled with the equally powerful light cavalry, they quickly built a grid of strong walls to clear the field. The infantry cooperated with the light cavalry to attack separately, forcing the Tang army's rangers to not dare to go deep, especially in the two areas of Sisluo and Kaman. The cooperation of the National Cavalry is also far stronger than that of Doton and Poole. It is almost as if the Tang Army Rangers have just entered a certain area. The neighboring armies would attack from all over in the shortest possible time. This made the Tang Army's rangers, who originally hoped to take advantage of the two countries' laxity in the border areas to achieve brilliant results, not be able to do so. Although they also achieved some results, compared to This pales in comparison to the achievements of the other two Ranger regiments at Dorton and Poole.
Even so, Sisluo and Kaman had to dedicate light cavalry forces to clear out these Tang army rangers who were coming and going like the wind. If they didn't drive these guys out, they would end up doing the same thing in the end. Our own army caused a lot of trouble.
Cui Wenxiu frowned and looked at the map and thought about it. The burden on his shoulders was really heavy. Three attack groups of the Liberians had already taken shape. Almost each attack group had a strength of about 500,000. In this way, The huge force will make the empire feel heavy no matter which direction it is squeezed from, especially the central and western fronts. Whether it is the West Luo people or the Kaman people, they have begun to compete with the Western Xinjiang army at that time. From the battle for From the beginning of Yinchuan to the later Battle of Ganlan Fortress, the Xijiang Army and the Yinchuan Army at that time joined forces to fight against the prying eyes of the Sisluo people. As for the Kaman people, not to mention, the disputes and disputes between them and the empire are beyond words. to describe.
His Majesty the Emperor has given himself all the troops he can give him. The eight army legions plus eight ranger regiments also have a strength of about 1.2 million. In terms of numbers alone, the difference between the Tang army and the Tang army is about 300,000. However, the Liberian coalition forces formed three fists on the long border. Any blow from one fist was enough to make the empire gasp. However, 1.2 million troops and horses were deployed from Yinchuan to Oho. On the long border of the Czech Republic, only the original elite legions can really support the overall situation. It may be a struggle for the newly established legions to be stationed in the city fortresses. If they are to be used in field operations, Cui Wenxiu didn't dare to be so confident. Once Lieber's army broke through and was defeated, it would be a huge mistake.
After thinking about it for a long time, Cui Wenxiu had no better way. Perhaps he could only give up one or even two routes, rely on the passive defense of the city and fortress, and select the weak ones to eliminate. However, this also depends on the other two routes of the Liberians not going too smoothly. , otherwise even if one of the three attack groups in Liberia is eliminated and the other two attack groups, causing irreparable consequences, it will be of no avail.
Seeing Cui Wenxiu's eyes wandering on the map for a long time but never saying anything, Mulig also knew that this colleague who was known for his cleverness and cunningness was also in trouble now. They are also slightly inferior to the Liberian Allied Forces in terms of combat effectiveness. In addition to the 3rd, 5th, and 12th Army Corps, which can faintly overwhelm the Liberian Army, the 10th, 11th, and 12th Army Corps are also slightly inferior to the Liberian Allied Army. Obviously, the Thirteenth and Fifteenth Legions cannot compare with the elites of Liberia who have experienced battles for a long time. The improvement of combat effectiveness cannot be achieved overnight.
"Li Ge, it seems that we have to give up something. If we continue to waste it like this, I'm afraid we will really delay the big event." Cui Wenxiu gently put down the pencil in his hand, and stared at the map for a long time before sighing. : "I'm powerless. If the Machikhans stop causing trouble in the south and give me those legions, I'm absolutely sure that the Liberians will destroy the country within the next year! But now, we have to think carefully about how to give up the benefits. The Boya people can't hurt us at all."
Mulige heard the implication of Cui Wenxiu's words. The war in the south was in a stalemate. The Machihan people chose a very clever strategy. They did not choose a decisive battle, but refused to give in. Instead, they mobilized the whole country to increase their military strength, making the southern part of the empire The pressure is getting bigger. At this time, it seems that the capture of Ronisia and Gongming as well as Daliao and Moulmein has become a burden, which has restrained a large number of elite troops. Especially the Nanyang Alliance troops are also moving northward, which has caused even more damage. The situation in the south is unstable. It seems that we cannot hope for a breakthrough in the south in a short period of time. We have to rely on ourselves for everything. Deep down in his heart, even Mulig regrets that Liang Chongxin I's famous name is here at this time. In the first battle, he was trapped in a dilemma, and his lifelong reputation may be ruined in this battle.
Cui Wenxiu's complaint was not directed at Liang Chongxin. After all, it was His Majesty the Emperor who decided on the strategy of going south and then north. He fully believed that he could overthrow the rule of the Maci Khans in several dependent areas in a relatively short period of time, but he did not expect that the Maci Khans would also do the same. When they saw that the situation was not right, they actually handed over the entire Ronisia and made people retreat back to Yuejing. They could even endure the loss of Gongming City and maintain restraint, but they continued to increase troops in the surrounding areas. This way The situation made Liang Chongxin unable to find a suitable means to crack it for a while. As time passed by, the situation in the north became increasingly serious, which made the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army frown.
