"The entire eastern part of Persia has completely fallen into war, and Persia has completely lost control of the northeast!"
After hearing Zeng Yi's report, Qinglong and others all smiled, "You mean, the trade line between the grasslands and Persia has been completely cut off?"
Zeng Yi also smiled: "It can be said that the entire grassland has actually been completely isolated!"
"Is there any news from Jin Yiwei?"
Shaantian said: "The latest information is that serious food shortages have begun to occur in the grassland. Many small and medium-sized tribes have fallen into melee in order to compete for food! But the melee is not large-scale!"
"Is there any action on Brother Meng's side?"
"Brother Meng has no time to take care of himself. Although Brother Meng has hoarded a lot of food and grass, the consumption of so many troops every day is terrible. His food reserves cannot last long, but there is a problem, because a tribe has a food crisis.
, the armies sent by each tribe are clinging to Brother Meng even more tightly. Now only the army can still have food."
"What should we do? Should we take the opportunity to send troops to the grassland?"
"It's not the right time yet. Sending troops now can only make the grassland people more united! In my opinion, it's better to wait until the food stored in the grassland is almost exhausted and the internal war becomes more extensive. Then it won't be too late to send troops!"
"The problem is that we don't know the grain stock in the grassland. If the grain stock in the grassland is enough, and we add cattle and sheep, when will we wait until we can sow it?"
Everyone was silent for a while, and then Zeng Yi said: "Then let's test how confident they are! Each ministry can send Xiao Gu troops to attack the grassland army and test their reaction!"
"This is quite simple."
The commander of the Northwest Army can decide to dispatch Xiao Gu's troops. For large-scale military activities such as attacking the grassland, the imperial court's approval is required.
After receiving this advice, the Northwest Army and even the Northern Army immediately sent out several troops of several thousand men and began to harass the grassland soldiers.
The grassland had already stopped all offensives when the food crisis began. Everyone knew that launching a powerful offensive also required sufficient strength to support it. With the small amount of food stored in the grassland, let alone launching an offensive, the soldiers would even gasp and dislike wasting food.
But the grassland people did not want to launch an offensive, so they had no choice but to do so. The Northern Army and the Northwest Army dispatched Xiaogu troops, harassing the grassland people, and the food pressure doubled.
Zeng Yi and others looked at the behavior of the soldiers on the grassland border and almost guessed the extent of the grassland's food storage.
"Based on the current situation, the grassland people don't have much food stock. Even if they leave the grassland alone, they won't be able to hold on for much longer."
"In this case, we only need to wait for a period of time and wait for chaos to occur within the grassland itself."
"No, no, no, I feel that the harassment tactics of small-scale troops should be expanded. On the one hand, it can attack the grassland defenders. On the other hand, it can also accelerate the food consumption of the grassland!"
After hearing Zeng Yi's words, everyone thought for a moment and nodded.
After that, according to Zeng Yi's opinion, the Central Plains began to dispatch more small-scale troops to constantly harass the grassland border troops. Within a few days, the grassland army could not make up its mind at first, and directly withdrew from the vicinity of Yanmen Pass to the original border area.
.
At this time, there was no Four-Nation Allied Forces in the Central Plains. Brother Meng took the initiative to withdraw his troops. In fact, he wanted to maintain the original border range. But now the situation has changed drastically, and the balance of power between the two sides has already undergone fundamental changes. Brother Meng wanted to
To maintain the original border range is basically a dream.
As time went by, the situation inside the grassland became worse and worse. Very fierce melees broke out between the tribes in order to survive. The former co-owner of the grassland, Brother Khan Meng, could not care about the conflicts between the tribes at this time.
There was a dispute.
The second largest tribe in the grassland, the Khitan tribe, Yelu Hongji, has already transferred all its troops back to the tribe. Brother Meng did not care to estimate the others, for fear that the Khitan tribe would suddenly raise an army.
When Zhou Yi and others saw that the interior of the grassland was in such chaos, they felt that the time for action had come. Several people jointly submitted a letter to Her Majesty the Queen, suggesting that the grassland should be attacked immediately.
In fact, the imperial court was already discussing whether to send troops immediately. After receiving a joint memorial from everyone, the imperial court finally made up its mind to send troops to the grassland.
A few days later, the Central Plains began a formal campaign. The army was divided into two groups. The Northwest Army of Xixia launched an attack on the grassland from the west, while the Northern Army in the east set out from Yanmen Pass and divided into several groups to attack the grassland at the same time.
The elite soldiers on the grassland have been transferred back to their side by Brother Meng a long time ago. The Khitan people are watching with eager eyes. Brother Meng is worried that he will not have the protection of the army.
Most of the defenders guarding the border are leftover men from various tribes. If the battle is going downwind, these people may be very powerful, but most people against the wind have long lost the will to resist.
These troops are actually very pitiful. They usually don't care about grandma or uncle. When the war breaks out, they are the frontline death squads. When they retreat, they are the soldiers who cover the rear. What makes these soldiers even more devastated is that many days ago, their
The rations have been reduced to one meal a day. Many war horses are already hungry. Let alone fighting, running is a problem.
When facing the Central Plains army, many people resisted for a while and then surrendered to the Central Plains. In their view, it was better to surrender to the Central Plains than to starve to death. At least two meals a day were required. Although the food was definitely not good, it was better than nothing!
The Central Plains army easily tore open the border of the grassland, and the battlefield was officially pushed to the grassland by the Central Plains.
During the period when the Central Plains army was attacking the grasslands, the players were not idle. They were still engaged in a fierce battle with Persia. The situation in Persia was much better than that in the grasslands. At least there was no need to worry too much about the problem of food and grass. However, there were not enough troops.
There is no way to ignore the situation.
The entire eastern part of Persia is being gradually occupied by players step by step. The interior of Persia is also uncomfortable. Except for a few coastal cities with huge coastal defenses, the rest of the Persian sea has basically become the back garden of the Central Plains navy. The Persian water
It can be said that the army has basically been annihilated by the Central Plains navy.
In order to annihilate the Persian navy, the Central Plains navy also paid a lot of money, but compared with the results of the battle, the cost was nothing!
Facing the Central Plains navy that could land at any time and anywhere, the Persian court had no choice but to deploy a certain number of troops everywhere. Persia was really afraid that the navy would open a second battlefield inside Persia. In that case, Persia would really have some
