The commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Rong, and the deputy commander-in-chief, Xu Da, led a 600,000-strong army and marched straight into the hinterland of the Yan Kingdom. In just over 20 days, they conquered more than a dozen counties. Along the way, under the powerful Ming army,
Under the attack, the Yan army was completely defeated and basically encountered no resistance.
However, with the rapid arrival of the Yan army, Xu Rong's attack speed also slowed down. However, these scattered troops obviously could not stop Xu Rong's attack. The only thing they could do was to delay it for a day or two.
.
The Yan army refused to defend the city and refused to leave the city to fight in the field. The city was obviously not a difficult place for the Ming army with many masters. But after all, the siege took a lot of time. After the city was captured, the remaining remnants were cleared away.
It also takes a lot of time.
In fact, the more important thing was the harassment of the Black Flame Sect, which made Xu Rong feel a little troublesome when attacking the city. Seeing the fate of the Lieyan Sect, the head of the Black Flame Sect was not a fool. He immediately knew that once the Ming Kingdom captured
The Yan State and the Black Flame Sect would not be spared, so they happily sent their disciples and even elders to help.
What Yan wants to do is delay time. As long as it delays for enough time, Yan will have a chance. When other countries react and deal with Ming together, Ming will have to retreat obediently.
The guess with the Yan State was good. After the war between Ming Yan and Yan State, all countries were a little uneasy. However, they did not send out troops immediately. They were all waiting and watching. The Ming State defeated the Lieyan Sect, but who can be sure that this was not a show for the world to see.
Yes. The Fiery Flame Sect is a third-level sect. It’s not like everyone has not known the strength of the Ming Kingdom for so many years. If the Ming Kingdom was really so powerful, the surrounding countries would not be able to feel it. Then who would have dared to fight for three days and a small battle for five days?
There will be a huge war with the Ming Dynasty.
This time, the war between the Ming Kingdom and the Lieyan Sect is very likely that the Mingguo is building momentum for itself. Maybe the Mingguo has paid a big price, or the head of the Lieyan Sect wants to change his profession and become the emperor. He wants to change the Lieyan Sect to another one.
Vest, back on the market.
But the result of the battle was unexpected. The two old rivals who were inseparable in the past were no longer on the same level when they fought. Even with the help of the Black Flame Sect, they were still inevitably defeated.
fall.
The losses of the Ming army were minimal, but the entire Yan army was wiped out. This shows that the strength of the Ming country is absolutely different. At least the Black Flame Sect and the Yan country combined are not enough to fight. Now, all countries are panicking.
Hands and feet. The strength of the Ming army was beyond the expectations of other countries. According to
With this posture, the Yan State will become history in less than two months. If the Yan State is destroyed, the Ming State will definitely not let it go. The emperors of all countries know very well that no one with such national and military power will just defeat a
The country is in trouble, and striking while the iron is hot is the way to go.
The envoys from various countries who stayed in Kyoto asked to see Liu Yu one after another and asked Liu Yu to stop attacking Yan. If there is any matter, let's sit down and talk about it. Why bother to use knives and guns? Land cession and compensation can be discussed. Take the troops, hello.
Hello everyone.
The battle has reached this point, and you still want to take it back. You are stupid or I am stupid. The attitude of the Ming Dynasty emperor has been very obvious, and he will not retreat until he is killed. In fact, all countries also understand that the Ming Dynasty has defeated the Yan Kingdom without any
Now that we have the strength to fight back, if we work hard for two or three months, we will be able to enjoy the big cake of Yan State.
The usual inquiries from envoys from various countries were just for show. The three countries surrounding the Ming Kingdom were already ready to take action. According to the Jin Yiwei's secret report, each country sent large armies to the border of the Ming Kingdom, and there was already a tremor on the border.
After receiving the secret report from Jin Yiwei, Liu Yu frowned. The matter was far from as simple as he thought. It was not only those from these three countries who sent help at the same time, but also the sects of Zhenguo among the three countries.
After the elites fill the army, the army on the border will be a little overwhelmed, and the original advantages will be lost.
No country wants to have a powerful neighbor around it. The rise of every country will be accompanied by conquest and killing. Similarly, if a country is strong enough to destroy another country, its neighbors will be uneasy
, will join forces to restrict the development of this neighbor.
If possible, it is best to eliminate this ambitious but powerful neighbor. Therefore, the rise of every country is accompanied by countless risks and filled with countless failures. Those who can survive it will become
A dynasty, or even a dynasty that dominates a state. If it cannot survive, it will only disappear in the long river of history.
Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty is also facing such a situation, and Liu Yu does not want to become a part of that historical dust. Immediately, Liu Yu sent Yu Juluo and Chen Wen beside him to the Southern Army and the Eastern Army respectively. As for the west
Weiguo, whose national strength was slightly weaker, was led by Yang Yanzhao and Chen Gong was the military advisor.
With such a luxurious formation, even if these three countries attack with all their might, Liu Yu is confident that he can defend it. After arranging the surrounding legions, he has nothing to worry about. Liu Yu immediately sent an order to Xu Rong.
He took the time.
The results of more than twenty days obviously did not satisfy Xu Rong, let alone Liu Yu. In the original plan, Xu Rong wanted to take more than a month to capture the Yan Kingdom, but he did not expect that the Yan Kingdom and Hei Yan would
Although Zong fought desperately, it had been more than twenty days, but he still hadn't reached the capital of Yan State.
"Commander," the military tent was opened, and Wu Yunzhao hurriedly walked in. "Commander, the Yan army in the previous place was really tough. It took a whole day of offensive to win! Now, we have captured this county again."
"Although it's still early, the soldiers are very tired after marching for a long time. Why don't we rest for a night first?"
He kept looking at the march map without looking back, and Ye did not answer Wu Yunshao's question. Xu Rong just frowned and said, "It won't work like this. The Yan army relies on city defense to fight. Although we are not afraid, it has also caused us a lot of trouble. Every time
This siege operation, coupled with clearing out the stubborn enemies, greatly extended the time it took."
"Commander, why should you worry? Our army is invincible wherever it goes. No city can stop us!"
"Alas!" Xu Rongpi sighed, and then said, "Although the Yan army is defeated steadily, at this speed, it will take a long time to conquer the Yan country. We may not be able to do so within the expected time.
Conquer the Yan Kingdom!"
"Commander, if you really can't do it, please ask your Majesty to be more tolerant. After all, it's not easy for us to fight here. I believe your Majesty can understand."
"No!" Looking back, Xu Rong said coldly, "Now that we are attacking the Yan Kingdom, we have caused panic in the surrounding countries. Now the border countries are already ready to move. If the Yan Kingdom cannot be captured in a short time, all four fronts of the Ming Dynasty will be affected.
attack."
"There are just a few countries, what's so scary!"
"Yes, there is nothing to fear from these countries!" Xu Rong smiled bitterly and shook his head. "With the rise of the Ming Dynasty, it is not just these countries that have suffered. The Daling Dynasty will definitely not be willing to give away half of the meat in its bowl.
.As the battle lasts for a long time, the Daling Dynasty will inevitably intervene, and it will not end well."
"That's it!" After thinking for a moment, Wu Yunshao, who was standing aside, suddenly said, "Commander, the general thought that we could unite the countries around Yan State to attack Yan together. Now that we have attracted all the Yan State's army, now Yan State
The national defense is empty. I believe that other countries will not let go of such a good opportunity. As long as they are willing to send troops to distract the attention of Yan State. At that time, once Yan State is captured, we will defeat the armies of these countries in one fell swoop.
"
Xu Rong shook his head, "Now that our Ming Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, the countries in the four directions are a little afraid. In this case, not only will the countries in the four directions not take the opportunity to attack Yan at this time, but they are very likely to unite with the Yan State to deal with our Ming Dynasty."
After Xu Rong finished speaking, Wu Yunshao also frowned slightly and immediately asked, "But Commander, at this speed and with the continuous reinforcements coming from all over the country, it will take at least twenty more for us to attack the capital of Yan Kingdom."
sky."
"Twenty days, maybe it won't take that long!" Xu Rong stared at the map. After looking at it carefully for a while, he slowly pointed his hand. "As long as we capture this place, we will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!"
