The county town of Nanshan County is very tall and has very strong soldiers, many of whom are descendants of barbarian tribes.
The governor of Nanshan County is named Yang Tingyi. He is the descendant of a large tribal leader who took refuge in the West God Kingdom in the early years. After he took refuge in the West God Kingdom, his grandfather was given the national surname, and the emperor at that time married the princess to him, so Yang Tingyi was to some extent
He is considered a relative of the emperor, so he will not surrender easily.
However, when the head of the Longwei Pass guard was delivered, the city immediately became chaotic. The individual fighting abilities of the indigenous soldiers were not weak, but there were conflicts among the various tribes.
Lin Haoming then brought together some of the tribes he had encountered along the way and deliberately sent people to conquer the villages and towns formed by some of the surrounding tribes. As a result, there was a burst of crying and screaming, and the city became even more chaotic.
Lin Haoming just made the city lose the hearts of the people, and after waiting for a long time, he could finally win without a fight, but Lin Haoming was a little surprised. The siege lasted only more than half a month, and the city was actually completely in chaos. Someone captured Yang Tingyi alive.
.
Although Lin Haoming originally had this purpose, it happened much earlier than he expected. Longweiguan even surrendered without any news of a fight. It really made Lin Haoming realize that the rule of the West God Kingdom here was simply
It's a joke.
Compared to Shannan County, Nanhai County is even more remote and desolate. To get there, you have to go from Shannan County. The rest is to go by sea. There are only dense virgin forests on the land. Even the indigenous people will not easily go there in many places.
In this way, it is only a matter of time before Nanhai County is captured.
Of course, Lin Haoming believed that if Gu Licai could control the West God Kingdom, he would definitely have other methods. Unfortunately, Lin Haoming knew very well that Gu Licai was controlled by others and was in a completely different situation than himself. At least when he gained Yang Kangkai's trust,
After forming an alliance with that spiritual concubine, things were completely different.
After capturing Yang Tingyi, Lin Haoming did not kill immediately, but pretended to ask Yang Kangkai for instructions. As expected, Yang Kangkai quickly sent word and forced Yang Tingyi back.
Lin Haoming naturally did as he was told, and he left some troops to guard here, waiting for the troops sent by Yang Kangkai after the success of this strategy, and he led an army of 50,000 to the north of Longwei Pass, because the Western Divine Kingdom army had already dispatched
, will arrive soon.
However, for this battle, the terrain was favorable for Lin Haoming, and Tianzhu City was not too far from Longwei Pass. The army going south would have to bear the risk of being attacked by the army from Tianzhu City later. Although it has been far away from Tianzhu in the past two years,
Three more echoing fortresses were built not far from the city for defense, but once a war broke out, no one could say anything.
With the occupation of Shannan County, the Northern God Kingdom also launched an operation to recapture Yelang Mountain. Although it was impossible to truly recapture Yelang Mountain, the northern operation also brought great constraints to the Western Divine Kingdom.
At the end of spring, the Western God Kingdom finally mobilized an army of 300,000 people to go south to recapture Shannan County. Lin Haoming had been at Longwei Pass for nearly a month.
The person who led the troops to attack Longwei Pass was none other than Gulicai, who had emerged a few years ago. Because he had captured Yelang Mountain and a large area of land around Ziwu Pass, Gulicai had also been reused.
The two armies were confronting each other. Lin Haoming was very aware of his current situation. Although he had a lot of troops and Tianzhu City was on his flank, Shannan County had just been captured and was internally unstable. The most important thing was that those tribes were typical two-faced people. When he was strong, he was willing to
If you show your strength, once the opponent is strong, he is likely to turn back immediately.
Lin Haoming also understood the problems during the period, so he acted cautiously. The people guarding Longwei Pass were all his own direct troops, while Yang Kangkai's subsequent reinforcements were placed at the back, responsible for keeping an eye on those tribesmen who surrendered.
When Gu Licai's people arrived, Tianzhu City immediately sent troops to harass them.
If the two armies confront each other and occupy the natural danger, there shouldn't be much of a problem in nature, so for Gu Licai, the problem is even bigger.
Of course, Lin Haoming will never underestimate his opponent. He can see some changes in things, but that does not mean that the opponent cannot see them.
The confrontation began in early summer, and both sides conducted many tests, but without a major siege, it lasted until the end of summer.
Lin Haoming became increasingly uneasy about this confrontation and began to think about why he would do this if he were Gu Licai.
After repeated consideration, there is only one possibility, and that is that the other party uses other methods to bypass Dragon Tail Pass.
So Lin Haoming began to send a large number of scouts to investigate the waterways and Nanhai County, but there was no news. But after autumn, something happened. Gu Licai actually sent an army directly from the sea and land to Wanghai Mountain.
After that, they crossed Wanghai Mountain and directly attacked Shangliang County. They burned, killed, and looted in Shangliang County, and burned almost all the grain waiting to be harvested in Shangliang County.
Attacking from the sea has many problems. The biggest problem is that there cannot be too many people. The attack on Shangliang County this time was less than ten thousand people, but the damage caused was huge. Shangliang County is the most important piece of land in the Southern God Kingdom. Now there is
If something like this happens, the result is obvious.
Yang Kangkai was calm and did not call Lin Haoming back, but sent Hong Chenyi to deal with it. The enemy hit and ran, which was really a headache, and he was also afraid that the opponent would land again without knowing where he came from.
Lin Haoming had to sigh at this time. Just like he was training a hundred thousand new troops, Gu Licai was also training his own troops. Those eight thousand pirate-like guys were probably trained by him. The harm caused by eight thousand people was far greater than
It's much more powerful than the previous three hundred thousand.
Lin Haoming immediately wrote a book to Hong Chenyi and Yang Kangkai, asking them to focus on defending a few important granaries to avoid further damage to the granaries, which would make it really impossible to survive.
Fortunately, most of the granaries are not close to the seaside and are heavily guarded. In addition to the first attack, additional scouts and spies were deployed along the coast. However, even so, some coastal towns were still harassed, and the catches were temporarily reduced.
Too much, and there are problems in making salt.
Gulicai's men were unable to attack the granary, so they attacked the salt field, and the attack was dispersed. The Southern God Kingdom only ate sea salt, and the salt field was greatly damaged for a while.
The navy of the Southern Kingdom of God is obviously inferior to the other party, and in the end they can only let the navy guard a few large salt fields.
Lin Haoming also knew that the current situation was very difficult. Gu Licai was definitely a respectable opponent, and his methods were endless. Lin Haoming could not just be beaten passively, so when the opponent attacked the salt field, Yang Xicheng of Tianzhu City sent troops to attack the Bingzhai. Lin Haoming
Bian Ye went out of his way and took the initiative to attack.
The two sides fought hard, killing and wounding some people on each other, and destroyed two of the three camps, but the last one was still defended. In the end, when winter came, everyone was unable to fight anymore.
