After Li Xiang captured Anding County, he did not send his troops to attack other cities and stabilize the surrounding cities.
They won this battle, but they lost a lot of soldiers and horses. Moreover, from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, which lasted for several months, the soldiers were a little tired.
Prime Minister Li needed to let them rest for a while, and at the same time stabilize his rule in Anding County. For the Han family's children in the cities on the fortress, Zhao'an was the main one.
If the other party is willing to surrender to Xiliang, he can protect the other party's prosperity. If the other party wants to continue the fight, then Li Xiang will accompany them to fight.
He is not afraid of those people, and if the two major races on the grassland take advantage of them, he will have an excuse to send troops northward.
Of course, the biggest focus is still on the Fufeng Plain in the south. The Xiliang headquarters army gathered in Zhangye County is ready to participate in the war.
Now they are waiting for Prime Minister Li to go back and take them to take revenge. In the battle on Fufeng Plains, Xiliang headquarters lost a lot of men.
All Xiliang people are one family, and the stubborn resistance of the two major families severely hindered Xiliang's development plan. Xiliang does not think that it is just, but it is not evil either. In terms of orthodoxy, they stand for justice.
On the fifth day after the attack on Anding County, Li Xiang left Anding County with his 5,000 Fei Xiong Army, followed by hundreds of thousands of prisoners.
These prisoners were not killed by Xiliang soldiers, but what awaited them would be something more terrifying than death. They would go to the river to wait for Xiliang's ships coming from the northwest.
They will follow the ship to the northwest land, and then be led by the personnel arranged there to enter the northwest pass to cultivate, build roads, and mine in the ice and snow land.
The vast area occupied by ghosts stores a large amount of minerals underground. Because that area used to belong to the turbulent flow of time and space, and was full of time and space cracks, the mineral veins underneath have not been excavated by predecessors and are very well preserved.
Now that Xiliang occupies part of the Guizhan District, the minerals inside have naturally become the minerals owned by Xiliang.
Not knowing their fate, these prisoners followed the Xiliang army and moved forward numbly. Many of them regretted why they did not escape with those who escaped.
Instead, they followed the clan leader and the others to resist the Xiliang army. Now, everyone is going to an unknown place. Although they will not die, they feel that their end will not be much better.
They had captured a large number of prisoners, but if they did not kill them immediately, they would later throw them into some poor places or on the grassland to serve as bait.
Xiliang did not kill them immediately, maybe because of this idea. Many people knew that their end would not be good, but they did not have the courage to commit suicide.
Because Xiliang gave them a glimmer of hope that as long as they behaved well, they could get rid of their status as captives. With hope, they would not become desperate and commit suicide.
Prime Minister Li was in front, and the prisoners behind him were behind. The two sides formed a long line on this vast plain. Spies from many forces could see this long line.
They were also curious about where the Xiliang army would take these prisoners.
They tracked all the way and finally came to the river, where they saw densely packed ships on the river. These prisoners were all transferred to the ships, and finally these ships were sent to the northwest.
There is also a huge army in Anding County, that is, the hundreds of thousands of infantry troops who retreated from the Fufeng battlefield to support Anding County. However, when they received the news, Anding County had been defeated by Xiliang, and the city lord and Han
All senior members of the family died in the battle.
For a time, this huge army began to become chaotic. Some people wanted to go home, while others wanted to take their own troops to occupy a place and become the local emperor.
There are also some who want to lead a large army to fight against Xiliang. They have four to five million people under their command. Even if they encounter the most elite troops in Xiliang, they will not be afraid.
Because of the discord among the people, this huge army dispersed halfway. The hundreds of thousands of troops dispersed at the earliest opportunity.
There were nearly 70,000 to 80,000 people left, and they continued to march towards Anding County along the road. They did not plan to attack Anding City, but wanted to cross Anding City and reach the city behind that was still in the hands of the Han family's children.
Go in.
Prime Minister Li did not have time to take care of this army, but he sent his scouts to closely monitor the opponent's whereabouts. The army he left behind in Anding County could crush these people.
Therefore, he is not worried about the harm these people will cause to Anding County. The more these people there are in Anding County, the better. When the next cleaning is done, he will not be short of labor force!
Li Xiang led the Fei Xiong Army all the way back to Zhangye County. He did not go to the city, but went directly to the military camp.
The purpose this time is to lead the Xiliang headquarters army to start a bigger war. He will make the other two families, the Pang family and the Ma family, fall into an even bigger battlefield.
He wanted both of them to use all their troops, horses, and manpower to confront him on the windy plain to see who was richer and who could persevere.
There is sufficient food in Xiliang, and a large amount of food and grass is produced every month, so Li Xiang does not need to worry about the food problem. On the contrary, the Pang family and the Ma family will cause huge turmoil because of the food problem.
At the same time, the forces standing behind these two big families must also shed some blood. If it were not for the forces standing behind these two big families, they would have been killed by Prime Minister Li long ago.
So Li Xiang asked them all to bring out their own secrets to fight him. If they don't show it, then they will be sorry. Xiliang can only unify the entire Liangzhou in advance.
Li Xiang knew very well the thoughts of these forces. They just wanted to use the power of the three major families in Liangzhou, the Pang family, the Ma family, and the Han family, to contain him.
Now that the Han family has been killed by him, the remaining forces will definitely invest all their resources into the Ma family and the Pang family.
However, he had to first call either the Ji Mo Sect Leader or Taoist Qingsong, or both of them.
When attacking the Han family, the opponent sent a great master to block him. This battle on the Fufeng battlefield would definitely be bigger than the battle on the Han family's side.
The opponent will definitely prepare more Grand Masters, so he must be prepared, otherwise he will be at a disadvantage and unable to help his army, which will be bad.
With two Grand Masters present, they can contain the other's Grand Master, and Li Xiang can lead his troops to break through the enemy's lines.
If the opponent's front line has been broken without Li Xiang, then Li Xiang can join forces with the two grand masters to kill the opponent's grand master.
It is difficult to kill a Grand Master level master, but that does not mean that it cannot be killed. If you are powerful enough and have sufficient preparations, it is not impossible to kill a Grand Master level master.
Li Xiang already had a plan in his mind, so he rushed back to the military camp outside Zhangye County in such a hurry in order to order his army to go south in advance.
On the sixth day after Prime Minister Li entered the military camp outside Zhangye County, the gate of the military camp, which had been closed, opened, and walking at the front was an army composed of Xiliang heavy cavalry.
The light cavalry spread around, not giving any spies a chance to run in. When the army set off, there were a large number of light cavalry surrounding it in order to block the enemy's spies from exploring.
The Xiliang army has already set off, and it will take about ten days to travel from here to the Fufeng Plain.
The above divided the army into four parts. He is in charge of the most elite central army. The guerrilla cavalry is composed of Xiliang light cavalry and Xiliang iron cavalry. The number reaches 30,000 horses, 10,000 light cavalry, and 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry. He is responsible for
Cross the main battlefield and go straight to the food road behind the Ma family's army to cut off the enemy's food and grass.
The right army consists of 40,000 infantry and 10,000 Xiliang cavalry, while the left army consists of 30,000 infantry and 10,000 Xiliang cavalry.
The central army, the main Xiliang army led by Li Xiang, 90,000 infantry, 30,000 cavalry, Shenji battalion, monks, auxiliary troops, etc. were all under his command.
In addition to these Xiliang headquarters soldiers, 100,000 civilian husbands were recruited behind the army, and these 100,000 civilian husbands were responsible for transporting grain, grass and various materials.
The safety of these civilians was taken care of by the garrison of Zhangye County. After capturing the city of Zhangye County, a garrison force of 40,000 people was organized according to the population of the city.
Letting these people go to the battlefield may be forcing them, but letting them be responsible for transporting the safety of these civilians does not pose much of a problem.
These 100,000 civilians are the lifeline of the Xiliang army. Otherwise, with the huge number of Xiliang army, it would not be an easy task to replenish food and grass in time.
These 100,000 people are very important, but if the enemy wants to break through the Xiliang army's blockade and make a sneak attack, these civil laws are not a simple matter.
If something happens to these people, Xiliang can still recruit them from the city. No matter how many of these people die, the people in Xiliang headquarters will not feel any sadness.
Anyway, just pay more compensation when the time comes.
The huge army of civilians soon attracted the attention of the Han Ma family and the Pang family in the south. They all knew that there was a military camp of the Xiliang headquarters outside Zhangye County.
They didn't know how many soldiers from Xiliang headquarters were in this military camp. In order to find out the situation in this camp, they also sent a large number of spies.
Unfortunately, those spies never returned and could not bring out the information inside, so they knew nothing about the military camp outside Zhangye County.
It’s unclear how many Xiliang headquarters soldiers are inside and what their purpose is.
When the huge team of civilians appeared, the Ma family and Pang family in the south were a little panicked, because they got some news from the spies.
This news came from the northwest. A month ago, Xiliang summoned a large number of elite soldiers from all over the northwest. These soldiers came from all over the northwest.
They all have one thing in common, that is, they are very powerful and possess a strong murderous aura, making them inaccessible to humans and ghosts.
After that, those soldiers disappeared from the northwest land, and no one knew where they went. Think of the military camp that appeared outside Zhangye County.
That military camp appeared later than the recruitment of soldiers in the northwest land, but the time of its appearance was really a coincidence, and some people often saw a large number of boats on the river.
We know that the navy of Xiliang is known as the second navy of Daqian, so transporting tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people is not a difficult task for Xiliang.
If the Xiliang soldiers gathered in the northwest now appear outside Zhangye County, it means that Xiliang King Li Xiang wants to use the power of these troops to destroy them.
The opponent's target is probably their two families.
After the heads of the two major families sensed that something was wrong, bad things happened one after another, and a large number of Xiliang troops appeared in the north.
Some people also saw the Xiliang cavalry on the plains. The enemy seemed to be advancing directly behind their horse's house, and then news of delays in food and fodder kept coming.
Everything made them feel that the matter was not simple, and the Xiliang army was probably dispatched.
"Everyone, this is the news that our two major families have now investigated. Li Xiang, the king of Xiliang, is probably coming with this reinforcement." The head of the Ma family said to everyone present: "If we can resist With this attack from Xiliang, we no longer need to worry about the attack from Xiliang for a while, at least for more than a year.
So I need your help!"
A middle-aged man in blue clothes stood up: "Clan Chief Ma, we have helped you enough.
We worked hard to transport the food and grass needed by your Ma family and Pang family from Shu. Not only did we spend a lot of manpower and material resources, but we also owed a lot of favors.
You have been telling us that you want us to help you, but have you really shown your true strength?
As far as we know, your two families have hidden a lot of troops, and you also have a lot of cavalry on the grassland, but you haven't recruited them back yet!"
The major forces want to use the power of the three major families to fight against Xiliang, causing Xiliang to focus on the land of Liangzhou and have no time to take care of other things.
But this does not mean that they are taken advantage of. They are relying on the power of the three major families. Why are the two major families not relying on their strength?
If it weren't for forces like them, the experts from Xiliang would have already taken action against the top leaders of the three major families. There are quite a few experts among these three major families, but compared with the strong ones from Xilian, They are still too weak.
Both sides are taking advantage of each other. No one has the upper hand and no one owes the other.
But now all their major forces are working hard to help these two families, but the people of the two families still retain their strength and have not recruited the troops on the grassland.
This is preserving strength!
How could the representatives of the major forces present not be angry?
Now they need an attitude and the amount of Xiliang army they need to consume.
