Turning his body around, his majestic eyes glanced at the generals in front of him, Wu Feng nodded slowly: "Jinchen said it well, yes, the Battle of Pinglu was the largest loss suffered by our Northwest Army since its founding. Wan Haoerlang paid his life for it, but I have never regretted it, because it is precisely because of their efforts that the Kaman people have maintained the military prestige of our Western Xinjiang and allowed the Kaman people to see the dignity of our Tanghe men. If Let me make another choice, and I will choose to fight without hesitation!"
"Although our Western Xinjiang Army has paid a lot for it, the Kaman people have also shed blood in the fertile fields. They will still be terrified the next time they encounter our Western Xinjiang Army. I reviewed the drills of the Nanjie Locke Army, and I Very dissatisfied!" As soon as these words came out, like a gust of cold wind, the heads of the entire Nanjie Locke Corps officers were blown down, and Kang Jianguo's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He had long sensed that his master seemed to be dissatisfied. This review was not very satisfactory, but he did not expect that the evaluation he received was very unsatisfactory, which made him feel nervous and stressed.
"I am not dissatisfied with the soldiers' tactical drills and individual performances. It should be said that their performance is encouraging, but the morale of the entire army, to be precise, is not enough, if it is said that the morale of the entire army is not enough. If an army lacks the evil spirit to dare to fight to the death, then this army cannot be called an excellent and qualified army! Some people may say that this is because the Nanjerok Army has not fought for a long time. Well, this time I Just give the Nanjielok Army a chance and let everyone prove to me whether the Nanjielok Army can truly be regarded as an elite division that dares to fight hard and bloody battles!"
Wu Feng's last two words immediately aroused the enthusiasm of several officers of the Nanjie Locke Corps. Kang Jianguo, who had a dark face and flushed red, was naturally full of fighting spirit, and his words were also decisive: "Your Highness, we Let the blood and swords of the Kaman people prove whether the Nanjerok Army is a coward. Now I, Old Kang, don’t want to talk nonsense anymore, so I’ll just ask His Highness to see the final result! Please give the battle order!”
With a sudden wave of his hand, Wu Feng nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I hope I can see the Nanjie Locke Corps bring me a surprise! Kang Jianguo, pass on my order, Yinchuan Prefecture only retains two regiments, and the rest Three regiments are stationed in Taixuan to strengthen Taixuan's defense, and closely monitor the movements of the Kaman people at Jiayuguan Pass! The remaining three divisions are gathering in Merington, and all armies have canceled all vacations. Bo Tao, from now on, you will also serve as Nan Deputy Commander of the Jerok Army, your division is temporarily included in the establishment of the Nan Jerok Army. Inform Lan Meng and ask him to mobilize 50,000 Jerok Defense Forces. This matter will be left to you, Jin Chen! From today on, Nan Jerok Army The Jerok Corps defense area has entered a state of combat readiness! As for the specific battle deployment, I will inform you!"
"I obey His Highness's order!" A burst of roar startled the birds looking for food in the fields and flew into the sky.
"What did you say? Your Highness, you want to leave and let your subordinates command and plan such a war?!" He was so surprised that he almost thought he had heard wrong. Bo Jinchen looked at the calm-looking young man in yellow robe with confusion. After the banquet between Grand Duke Allen and the important ministers of the Principality of Jerok, the other party was still in high spirits and seemed to be in excellent spirits.
"Yes, I will go south soon. You will be responsible for arranging and planning the battle here. Whether it is Yulin, Pinglu, or Beijerok, choose the right fighter. Don't stick to one place, as long as you can Consume the active strength of the Kaman people to the greatest extent and reduce the pressure on my center line. But I'm afraid I don't have much exciting power for you. Let's do this. I'll give you a light cavalry regiment as a mobile supplement. The Nanjie Locke Corps plus the Zhan Botao Division The regiment also has four divisions, so you can be sure of it." Wu Feng picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down again. Seeing that the other party still hadn't come to his senses, he asked with a smile: "What? I don't want to because I still have too few troops in my hand. Already?"
"No, no, Your Highness, you misunderstood. It's just that my subordinate joined the camp and his qualifications and prestige are not enough to command such a large battle. I thought it would be more appropriate for His Highness to command it personally and for my subordinates to assist from the side." Bo Jinchen Shaking his head, he said with a serious face, "If the battlefield is unfavorable due to the subordinate's poor command, wouldn't the subordinate become a sinner?!"
"Haha, Jin Chen, you are trying to control me. You can rest assured of this. Our army in Western Xinjiang has always enforced orders and prohibitions. As long as it is designated by me, not to mention you, even a small soldier can command an army! If anyone dares to If he disobeys the order, Mifeng's Military Justice Department will immediately let him see the majesty of our Western Xinjiang Army's military law, but I believe that no one dares to test the law at this point!" Wu Feng waved his hand and said confidently.
"But, Your Highness, if my subordinates have limited abilities and make mistakes in command, I'm afraid they won't be able to shoulder such a responsibility." Bo Jinchen obviously didn't mean what he said.
"Do not trust those who employ people and do not trust those who are suspicious. This is the principle that I, Li Wufeng, have always adhered to. You don't need to worry about your origin. Many of my subordinates are rebels. Aren't He Lianbo and Mao Jin the bandit leaders? Long Ziyi doesn't Is he also a rebel leader? Which one has a very noble background?" Wu Feng casually took a scroll from the desk and handed it to the old man, "I do have something to do. I need to go to the south to arrange it myself. I originally planned to fight only one or two small and medium-sized battles, but your words made me change my mind. Fighting a big battle may be more beneficial to Western Xinjiang in the long run."
South? What will happen to the south? I didn’t hear any changes in the war situation in the south when I went out? Could it be that the Sanjiang War has undergone new changes? He took the document handed over by the other party with some doubts. The document was not information about changes in the war situation, but a comprehensive intelligence analysis of the situation of the alliance countries in the peninsula south of Burma County and the military operations of the Pasha Kingdom in the Central Continent. After a cursory reading, the old man was shocked. He raised his head as if he suddenly understood, and asked word by word: "Your Highness, do you want to send troops south to the Peninsula Alliance?"
"Yes, the Pasha Kingdom is now attacking across the Great Hengduan Mountains. The countries and city-states to the west of the Peninsula Alliance can no longer support it. Even the West Oran Kingdom can no longer watch the fire from the other side. Not only has it provided money and supplies, but it has also openly sent troops. After joining the joint operation against Pasha, the eastern part of the Peninsula Alliance also sent mercenaries to join the battlefield in the Central Continent. Although the Pasha people were commanded by Kutuzov, who was known as the Army God of the Central Continent, the strength of the coalition forces was too strong. In one or two games, The defeat will hardly have a crippling effect on the coalition forces. I am worried that the Pasha people cannot continue this war. Once their war is over, the mercenaries sent by the countries in the eastern part of the Peninsula Alliance will return one after another, and those in the west will The country can also free up its hands to support these countries and city-states in the east." Wu Feng stroked his forehead in distress, "Originally I wanted to wait a little longer, but it seems I can't wait any longer. Once the Pasha people withdraw from the Hengduan Mountains, If we leave the battlefield, I'm afraid this opportunity will be lost."
"But Your Highness, have you ever thought about how the Machikhans and the Nanyang Alliance will react if you invade the Peninsula Alliance? Will they send troops to support the Peninsula Alliance?" Bo Jinchen has obviously done research and analysis on the situation in the south. .
"Maqi Khans? No matter whether I send troops to the Peninsula Alliance or not, we are already fighting to the death. As for whether he wants to send troops to the Peninsula Alliance, that's up to him, but he must first consider dealing with the famine in his country, right? As for the Nanyang Alliance, , I estimate that they will send troops, but to what extent they can interfere may depend on the progress we have made in the Peninsula Alliance. If we go well, they may need to think carefully about it. If it is not good for us, I am afraid they will do everything they can. The army has been mobilized for reinforcements." Wu Feng said calmly.
"Why is Your Highness so eager to go south at this time? I cannot understand this. Your Highness's strategic focus has always been in the east. Why do you have to go south at this time? If we can conquer the Central Plains in one fell swoop, how can we then deal with these small countries? Isn't it easy? Why can't you take it a little longer, sir?" Bo Jinchen became a little excited. He was very puzzled by the sudden change of his master's strategic focus to the east and then to the south. When he asked the question, his tone was not so polite. .
Seeing that the other party was a little excited, Wu Feng could understand the other party's thoughts. After all, changing the strategic focus easily is not only a taboo in military use but also a taboo in politics. When all strategies revolve around a determined focus, you suddenly ask to adjust the target. , no one can accept such a change.
"Jin Chen, you haven't been here for a short time, so I'm afraid there are some things that you don't know yet. Who do you think is our biggest threat in the south?" Wu Feng smiled slightly, picked up the tea cup and motioned for the other party to take a sip of tea to calm down.
"The biggest threat? Apart from the Machikhans, I can't think of anyone else who can be called a threat." Bo Jinchen gradually calmed down, and he believed that his master had his own reasons for asking this question at this time.
"Yes, they are the Machihans. The strength of the Machihans has grown rapidly. In the past few years, they have successively annexed the Principality of Jemelo and the city-state of Ankun. Then they took over the Yuejing Kingdom and Baling, and now they have eaten them again. The entire Ronisia Alliance and the Three Rivers and Two Prefectures are involved. The most worrying thing is that Lei Juetian and his shrewdness are perfectly combined with Bixili's talent and strategy. In addition, they also have several outstanding generals in the military. Each of them is merged into The area of Maci Khan will be naturalized and assimilated by them very quickly, and it can be said that it is no weaker than our methods in Western Xinjiang. If they are allowed to continue like this, I am very worried that the Maci Khan people will become a serious trouble in the future." Wu Feng let out a long sigh, his eyes flowing in his deep eyes, "If it were just the Machikhan family, I wouldn't be so worried, but there are Kaman, Sisluo and Puer people in the north of us. Right now, there are still I can’t tell if there is much contact between them, but once we obtain the Central Plains, the two parties who are aware of the crisis will immediately join hands, plus the Japanese and Milanese who take advantage of the situation, I can’t be sure that we Can we achieve final success?”
