"Marshal, now Anping, Ansui and other places have fallen one after another, and we no longer have any cities in front.
The next city at the front is Fufeng City!"
On the huge sand table, densely packed blue flags and red flags were intertwined. The blue flag represented the armies of the two families, and the red flag represented the Xiliang army.
On the whole, it seems that the two sides are in a military confrontation, but if you look carefully, you can see the blue flag in the middle vaguely surrounded by the red side's army.
The blue flag in the middle is Fufeng City where the top executives are now, where 200,000 elite members from the two major families are gathered.
A large number of cavalry and infantry were deployed around it. Fufeng Plain was also the place where the two major families wanted to have a decisive battle with the Xiliang army. They wanted to have a life-or-death showdown with the Xiliang army on Fufeng Plain.
However, they won the previous confrontation. Luo Mu, the general of the Xiliang side and the commander of the Extreme Demon Legion, was killed in the battle, and all the Extreme Demon Legion under Luo Mu were wiped out.
In addition, a large number of Xiliang troops who came to support were also wiped out by them.
They wanted to replicate the last great victory, but they knew very well that this was impossible. The last time they were able to win was because Xiliang King Li Xiang was attacking Anding County with all his strength.
did not appear on the Fufeng battlefield, which also resulted in Xiliang on the Fufeng battlefield. The generals of other armies fought independently. Although on the surface they belonged to the same war zone, during the actual battle, many generals
Not very cooperative.
Only then did the death of Luo Mu, the leader of the Extreme Demon Army, occur. Li Xiang's army will definitely be united on the Fufeng battlefield, and the cooperation between the armies will definitely be much better than last time.
Now the pressure is on their coalition side. It is a very serious problem for them to deal with the Xiliang army in this way.
This time, a large number of Xiliang headquarters troops appeared in the Xiliang army. As we all know, the most powerful Xiliang army is the Xiliang headquarters army.
The Seventh Army, the Eighth Army, etc., look very powerful, but on the Xiliang side, the Seventh Army is just a combat force following the Xiliang army. At the beginning, the Seventh Army should be regarded as an auxiliary force.
.
The birth of the Eighth Legion is even worse. The Eighth Legion in Xiliang's main army is just a city defense army stationed in the city. Therefore, the Eighth Legion was included in the combat army because the Xiliang army really couldn't produce anything.
manpower.
It happened that the troops of the Eighth Army had good combat effectiveness and could fight many armies in Liangzhou, so Xiliang King Li Xiang pulled them into the combat army.
The two legions that were regarded as the imperial troops of Xiliang were able to fight back and forth with the elite troops of the two major families in Liangzhou on the battlefield. It must be said that this was a mockery.
At the same time, it also shows from the side the strength of the Xiliang headquarters army.
If Xiliang's main army was not strong, how could these two troops become auxiliary troops?
"Now that Xiliang's troops are in full swing, I think we can avoid them first. After the vigor in their hearts dissipates, we can then fight against them."
The marshal of the Pang family said to the people present: "The war is fought with morale and the vigor in the chest. The Xiliang army led by Xiliang King Li Xiang has strong morale, and because of Luo Mu, the commander of the Extreme Demon Army,
Death, holding a breath in my heart.
This is the time when the Xiliang army is at its strongest. If we can avoid it, wait for the vigor in their hearts to dissipate, and their morale will be low because they cannot attack for a long time.
That’s the best time for us to fight each other!”
Marshal Pang does not advocate a life-or-death showdown with Xiliang now, because they still have a lot of chips in their hands to play, and they are not in a hurry to throw out all the chess cards at once.
"What do you think?" Marshal Ma did not make a decision immediately, but looked at other generals and representatives from major sects.
The representatives of the major sects looked at the tea in their hands, as if there was something in the tea that puzzled them. If they were talking about martial arts, they could speak fluently.
But what we are talking about now is how to fight against the Xiliang army. Fighting on the battlefield is a bit difficult for warriors like them to understand. Fighting and fighting are two different things.
Although both were focused on killing enemies, there were at most a dozen people at a time, while the other one was at least several thousand or even tens of thousands of people. This time it was even worse, with millions of people fighting.
The senior officials of the sect called them over and asked them to cooperate with these generals in fighting. Before joining the army, they had a disdainful attitude towards these generals and soldiers.
After fighting with real enemies on the battlefield, they clearly discovered how insignificant a person's power is on the battlefield. No matter how strong you are alone, you are not at the level of a grandmaster or a grandmaster.
But at the second-rate, third-rate, etc. levels, on the battlefield, your personal strength can indeed crush a large number of enemies, but when the opponent combines a formation, either the formation or the cooperation between several people, you can be defeated
Contain it.
And you never know where the next attack will come from or who will attack you.
All you can do is kill the enemy in front of you, hand your back to your comrades, and have comrades at the front, left, and right to help each other, otherwise one person simply cannot deal with sneak attacks from all directions.
After experiencing the war, although they were not respectful to these generals, they no longer had the disdain they had before. At the same time, they were very willing to obey the commands of these generals on the battlefield.
The generals below were thinking hard with their brows. Many of them were not in favor of dragging on any longer, but they wanted to have a life-and-death showdown between the two main armies of Gensei Ryo on the frontal battlefield.
It can be said with certainty that they are the ones worshiping, because until now they don't know how many troops Xiliang headquarters has sent.
The scouts who went out only knew that the army of Xiliang headquarters was huge, and the number would never be less than 100,000. The Chinese army led by Xiliang King Li Xiang was even more powerful. From the time they set out until now, no city could stand in front of them.
After half a day.
Many of these cities resisted to the death, but unfortunately it was of no use. They were captured by the Xiliang army half a day later.
If it is just pressure from the frontal battlefield, with the background of the two families, can they still persist for a few months, and when the university falls, both sides will stop?
The cold in Liangzhou is no worse than in the northwest, but if you think about it, delaying the war until winter seems to be more beneficial to Xiliang, right?
After all, many of the Xiliang army's achievements were fought in ice and snow. It can be said that cold is not their enemy.
On the contrary, in the ice and snow, the combat effectiveness displayed by the Xiliang army was much stronger than that displayed by other armies.
If they cannot withstand the attack of the Xiliang army in the cold winter, then their two families will become the history of Liangzhou like the Han family.
They will be thrown into the dust of history, and these people are likely to be recorded in the annals of history. Then they do not deserve names. At most, they are the resistance force of three generations of the family.
At this time, a young general stood up and said: "Confrontation on the frontal battlefield is not the responsibility of my logistics department, but for some reason I have not received a reply to my previous request for help from you."
"Our logistics transportation line has been attacked by the Xiliang light cavalry. Now out of every ten grain transportations, five or six times will be intercepted by the enemy. Our logistics team's defense strength is only so little. The Xiliang light cavalry can come and go freely.
, as fast as the wind, my transport team was unable to withstand the opponent's attack.
I asked you two for help more than ten days ago, but why haven't you given me a reply yet?"
The young man is mainly responsible for the logistics and transportation routes. The entire army's logistics team is basically in his hands. The logistics department is the easiest place to make money.
But this is a time of war, and the life and death of the two families is at stake. No one dares to interfere with this.
Every transportation of food will be clearly recorded. How much food the soldiers used and how much food was transported will be recorded clearly one by one.
Marshal Ma looked at Marshal Pang. He didn't know about this. Marshal Pang also looked confused. Among the generals, another young man had a very ugly face.
"Pang Yun, stand up for me." Marshal Pang shouted to the generals.
The young man with a very ugly face stood up and said respectfully: "Marshal, I wanted to report this matter to you two after this meeting, because you two were too busy before, so I didn't interrupt."
The young man who stood up first looked at the man who spoke with a fierce look in his eyes. There was already a conflict between the two people, but this conflict could not be brought to this battlefield.
The man delayed for more than ten days. He didn't ask in person, and he didn't know how long he would delay.
In the past ten days, he had lost a large number of his men, most of whom were killed in sneak attacks by Xiliang light cavalry.
The reinforcements he requested never arrived, and the soldiers who were relatives of the two major families and supported his men could not have lost so many.
Marshal Ma frowned. The issue of food and grass was related to the life and death of the entire army. Once there was a problem with the food route, the army was likely to face the danger of running out of food.
Running out of food is a very dangerous thing. If the soldiers know about it, they will easily mutiny, which may lead to a series of reactions such as camp roars and so on.
The alliance between the two families was defeated without attack!
"Marshal Pang, I feel that you need to clean up your internal affairs." Marshal Ma did not ask too much about this matter because the two young men were from the Pang family.
It is better to leave the Pang family's affairs to be resolved by themselves. If he, an outsider, intervenes, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
"I'm really sorry!" Marshal Pang said apologetically to Marshal Ma Yun, then turned to the young man who spoke first and asked: "As for the light cavalry's sneak attack on grain and grass, wait a minute, you can come to my big tent and see it in person
Report to me."
"As for you, I'm thinking about how to solve it after you finish." Marshal Peng said and gave the very pale young man a hard shave.
The other generals looked at the pale young man and looked bad. The issue of food and grass was a top priority in the army, and there must be no problem with food and grass.
"Continue to discuss the battle!" Marshal Ma suppressed the matter.
"Marshal, the general thinks that we should fight Xiliang on the Fufeng Plain. Even if we can't win, we should play our own style and our momentum to let Xiliang know that we are not to be messed with!" A figure
The burly man stood up and said: "Tolerance blindly will only allow the opponent to advance further, and the general does not think that we can stop Xiliang's attack in winter.
In recent years, the weather has become colder and colder. Judging from the development history of Xiliang, most of the wars that determined the development of Xiliang broke out in winter.
We can fight with the major forces of Guangmai in the cold winter. In the cold winter, we even captured the northwest land. There are rumors that soldiers from Xiliang headquarters have been fighting with the beast clan in the northern part of the northwest land. It is covered with snow all year round and is extremely cold.
!
Everyone has seen the weapons and armor worn by Xiliang soldiers. They have a thick layer of iron armor on the outside and a layer of animal skins on the inside to keep them warm.
In summer, you can take out that layer of animal skin, and in winter, you can add some animal skin inside to keep warm, so their armor can still play a great role in winter."
"The general thinks that summer may be more suitable for fighting them. In the cold winter, we don't have the financial and material resources of Xiliang!"
The big man said and glanced at the pale young man: "What's more, it is very difficult to transport grain and grass in the cold winter months. Millions of troops gathered in Fufeng Plain, and people eat horses and chew them every day. It is already difficult for the logistics transportation route, not to mention
It was in the coldest month of winter.
It is difficult for our two families to resist the attack of the Xiliang army alone, so we can cooperate with the two nomads in the north. Isn't Anding County now in the hands of Xiliang?
In addition, Zhangye County is also in the hands of Xiliang. The territory of Xiliang can now be said to be connected with the Qiang and Xianbei people. The cold winter is a disaster for us, and even more so for the nomadic people on the grassland.
.
They need a lot of food, grass, and all kinds of warm things to survive the winter!
The best option is to go south and plunder. Xiliang will send its main army to fight us in the Fufeng Plain. The border will definitely be empty of troops, which is the best time for the grassland tribes to invade!"
The middle-aged man's words made all the generals present shine. If the two nomadic tribes on the small grassland really went south to plunder, the Xiliang army would face two choices.
One is to continue to confront the two major families on the Fufeng Plain, and the other is to send troops north to resist the two major grassland tribes.
Don't look at the two major grassland tribes who are usually beaten by their major forces. That's because the real big tribes in the grassland have not taken action.
Their attack on Xiliang can only be stopped if the main force moves northward.
