The war drums sounded softly, and the troops poured out of the barracks like a tide.
In just half a day and one night, Yujia's army was able to deploy millions of troops, especially the three major generals and their troops, who responded faster.
Until the scorching sun rises.
King Li's army had just lined up its camp in front of the camp and outside Dongyang County.
Xinwu Guard was in the middle, Wolong Army and Ziwei Army were on the left and right, Luo Wu Army and Zhongwu Army were next, and the rest were all Imperial Barbarian Army and Liguo Army.
Densely packed troops crowded the plains outside Dongyang County and spread to the rear military camps. Thick iron-blooded clouds covered the sky like dark clouds, and the military power soared into the sky. Even the hot and sunny days were affected by the climate and turned into cloudy skies.
"Gululu..."
The sound of dense and heavy windlass sounded, and countless siege equipment was continuously pushed out from the gaps between the various legions, and soon they were densely arrayed in front of the Liguo army formation, and they were fierce and majestic.
In the distance, on the wall of Dongyang County City, there are dense crowds of people covering the top of the wall.
But they just watched.
When the imperial barbarian army attacked the city before, they regretted not leaving the city to destroy the siege equipment. Now, the Li Kingdom army slowly pushed out the siege equipment and allowed the southern barbarian coalition forces to leave the city, but no one was able to drive them away!
A person's name, the shadow of a tree.
The reputation of King Li Wuxin has long spread throughout the world, shocking all directions.
The Southern Barbarians were still a little unconvinced before, but now they feel a little numb after seeing the lineup of King Li's army!
Not to mention anything else, just the terrifying lineup of Xinwuwei makes people frightened, and they really can't muster the fighting spirit!
Before the fall of the Sui Empire, how many great monks were there in the world? On the surface, there were more than a thousand, but in fact, only about three thousand were able to survive.
Later, the world was in chaos, and heroes emerged in troubled times. Countless heroes rose up in response to the disaster, but the number of great monks was also extremely limited. Coupled with the Yangzhou catastrophe and the Jiangdu catastrophe, more than half of the great monks in the Central Plains were lost.
There are not many more great monks in the world today than before the troubled times. The number of great monks outside the city alone exceeds 500, and it is estimated that there are 800 or 900 people.
How to fight this?
In terms of quantity, quality, momentum, equipment, etc., there is a huge gap between the Southern Barbarian tribes and the Liguo army. There is no comparison at all!
"King Li! We have never fought against the world, and we have no intention of invading the north. Why should King Li be so aggressive?"
After a night of intense controversy, the Fire King Zhu Yanyan stood on the wall and asked as if the God of Fire had descended into the world, with a voice like rolling thunder.
After a pause, he said in a rather sincere voice: "King Li's eyes should be on the Central Plains, not on remote and desolate places like us! As long as King Li can unify the Central Plains, there is no need for King Li to spend a single soldier, and we will naturally
Agreed, why do you have to do things that please your loved ones and your enemies?"
"ah?!"
After hearing what the Fire King said, countless people including Wu Xin, Di Long, Di Mingdie and others were a little stunned and speechless.
If there is no basis for this, it’s too obvious, right?!
Do you want to be so unambitious?
Of course, the facts are in front of us, and it is okay for the Southern Barbarians to refuse to accept it. If they refuse to accept it, the Southern Barbarians will definitely suffer heavy losses in the war, and in the end they will only be defeated.
Today's world is the world of the human race, and it's not just talk!
"The solitary country is established in the south of the Yangtze River. It is imperative to conquer the south. Otherwise, how can we make an expedition to the north and compete in the Central Plains with peace of mind?"
Wu Xin thought for a while and said in a calm tone. After a pause, he slowly continued:
"Since ancient times, there have been no major wars in the south. I don't want to conquer the south. I just want to gain recognition and peace of mind! Who knows, you are so stubborn and unable to recognize the reality that you have severely damaged our army and forced me to do nothing.
If you don’t march south yourself..."
Speaking of this, Wu Xin paused deliberately to let everyone digest the verbal information, and then continued:
"Limited by the setting sun, I give you two choices. First, stick to the end, Gu Hui will demand ten times the casualties of our army in sacrifice to the martyrs; second, surrender to Gu, Gu will not move your territory. However, the Southern Barbarians
Each ministry must send a certain level of elite troops to assist our country, instead of just listening to the instructions and not listening to the propaganda, just sitting back and watching the storm surge!"
"Take a moment away from King Li!"
The Fire King was silent for a moment, responded loudly, and then fell silent.
To put it bluntly, the Southern Barbarians did not want to go to war with the Li army, and Li King Wuxin did not want it either.
On the frontal battlefield, Wu Xin had absolute confidence and defeated all the Southern Barbarian enemy forces. However, the Southern Barbarians' advantage did not lie in the army, but in the geographical environment, strange methods, etc.
If the Nanman tribes do not engage in a head-on battle with the Liguo army, but instead break into pieces and keep attacking the Liguo army, it will be Liguo's turn to have a headache.
More importantly, the land in the south is indeed a barren and barren land with little oil and water. It requires money but no money, and it requires food but no food. It is not cost-effective no matter how you look at it. This is also the case in previous dynasties, which only forced surrender and did not launch a large-scale southern expedition.
One of the main reasons.
The biggest role of the Southern Expedition is to allow Li Guo to solve the southern problems, solve his worries, and go all out to conquer the Central Plains with peace of mind!
Of course, Wu Xin's views are very different from those of people in this world. The south seems to have many mountains, water, and forests, making it difficult to develop. However, the land is fertile and managed well, and it is an excellent rear area that can provide
Adequate logistics.
In troubled times, what is most important?!
"Brother, do you understand?"
Seeing how spineless the Dongyang Southern Barbarian Alliance Army was, Di Mingdie laughed angrily, looked at the silent and decadent Di Long, and reminded him in a low voice.
"I understand!" Di Long smiled bitterly and responded calmly.
This time, Dilong was indeed tricked by the Southern Barbarians, and the trick was terrible!
When discussing "integration" before, the Southern Barbarian tribes made their vows and were full of confidence. When the Liguo army really came to the city, it was over immediately!
Given the population bases of the humans and barbarians, if they could really fight, would they still be shrinking in the south until now?
Of course, the "intelligent warfare" mentioned by the Southern Barbarians does make sense. However, if other small tribes can do this, what about the superpowers such as the Seven Southern Barbarians?
This is why the king of hell is easy to stop, but the devil is difficult to deal with!
The Seven Southern Barbarians obviously did not have the courage to defeat the Liguo army, nor did they have the determination or greatness to defend the South.
It’s not that the Seven Tribes of the Southern Barbarians are spineless, the barbarians are all very warlike. It’s just the fact that the Seven Tribes of the Southern Barbarians can be passed down to this day, and a very important point is to understand each other.
"King Li! If we have a big war, life will be ruined, the people will not be able to survive, and both sides will suffer. I have a suggestion. We have one contest in front of the formation, one military battle, one actual battle, one king's battle. We will win two out of three games, and the winner will be the king.
The loser is... If Li Guo is defeated, how about withdrawing from the south?"
Wu Xin and others did not wait long before the Fire King, on behalf of Dongyang County, put forward more pertinent suggestions.
"Can!"
Wu Xin didn't think much about it and responded cheerfully.
For countless years, the southern barbarian tribes have become accustomed to being pushed around by the human race. This condition is indeed suitable and can greatly avoid casualties on both sides.
