Chapter 1180 The Pain of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (Two in One)
June 11, Hetao battlefield.
The result of the attack by the beast horde was beyond everyone's expectations. When Xiao Chaogui reported the details of the investigation to the headquarters, he was as ruthless as white, and he couldn't help being stunned on the spot.
"Isn't this too coincidental?!" Bai Qi couldn't believe it, "The beast horde happened to be a coincidence, but fortunately, the undead just happened to cause the bombing of the camp, which is really unheard of."
Ouyang Shuo laughed and said, "This is the Peacock Dynasty, General, if the heavens do not take it, you will be blamed instead." Ouyang Shuo did not expect that an insignificant talisman could make such a miraculous achievement.
Looking at it this way, Bloody Romance is really a lucky star of the summer.
Hearing the words, Bai Qi clasped his fists and said solemnly: "The general understands, so I will arrange the army, take advantage of the victory and pursue it, and must give the enemy a heavy blow to avenge the previous looting."
"That's right." Ouyang Shuo said happily.
Bai Qi followed up and said: "I also ask the king to help the last general, summon the forbidden army of the king's city to fight, and catch the enemy by surprise."
In order not to attract the attention of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is natural that the later the better to summon the Han Imperial Army, but in Bai Qi's view, now is the best time, and there is no delay.
Earlier is also a helpless choice.
After all, with the strength of the Longxiang Army alone, even if the Maurya Dynasty army suffered a serious setback under the beast tide, there were still 500,000 formed troops on the border, and the Longxiang Army could not match it.
At most it is a tie.
If 320,000 Han iron cavalry are added, the situation will be completely different. The strength of the Great Xia army is equivalent to that of the enemy, but with the bravery of the Longxiang army and the Han iron cavalry, the comparison of combat power is reversed.
Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate, agreed to Bai Qi's request, and said with a smile, "Let's go outside the city!"
"promise!"
Soon, a group of people arrived outside Pombin City.
At this time, the army of the Peacock Dynasty, who was in charge of monitoring the city of Pompey, had already learned the news of the attack on the army last night. The whole army was on high alert and was ready to rescue the Peacock King at any time.
Seeing the Longxiang army stationed in Pompin City leave the city, they dared not neglect and put the whole battalion on alert.
Ouyang Shuo ignored it and quickly completed the summon.
In just a split second, bursts of dazzling white light flashed on the outskirts of Pompin City. When the white light dissipated, 320,000 Han cavalry appeared. The scene was extremely shocking.
The leader, a veteran, came to Ouyang Shuo with a complicated expression, clasped his fists and said, "General Shangguan Jie, ordered to lead his troops to come for reinforcements, at the beck and call of King Xia!"
Gaia stipulated that the summoned imperial army would unconditionally pay the summoner's order and execute it without any compromise, in order to let the summoned Imperial City Imperial Army enter the battlefield quickly without any other accidents.
Just like the previous battle of Naijia City, even if the Peacock King deliberately let the royal city's imperial army be cannon fodder, the imperial army had no choice but to hold their resentment in their hearts.
It only explodes under certain circumstances.
Ouyang Shuo saw that he was not from Wei Qing, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, he was familiar with history and knew a little about Shangguan Jie.
Shangguan Jie, nicknamed Shaoshu, was the head of Habayashi Qimen when he was young. He was famous for his talents. The same fate.
Looking at his resume, although Shangguan Jie is the left general, he has no military experience and has always served in the court. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent this person to lead the army, which shows that he is also very angry.
After Emperor Zhao came to the throne, Shangguan Jie had a good relationship with Huo Guang. Shangguan An, the son of Shangguan Jie, even married Huo Guang's daughter. The two families became close relatives by marriage.
When Huo Guang went out, Shangguan Jie often handled government affairs instead of Huo Guang.
Later, because of the punishment of Shangguan An, the son of Shangguan Jie, and the failure to apply for an official position for Ding Wairen, the male favorite of Princess Eyi, the relationship between Shangguan Jie and Huo Guang became incompatible.
In September of the first year of Emperor Zhao Yuanfeng, Shangguan Jie joined forces with Sang Hongyang, the imperial historian, Liu Dan, king of Yan, and others to throw a banquet to murder Huo Guang, but soon failed, and Shangguan Jie and his son were killed.
Ouyang Shuo noticed that Shangguan Jie looked at him a little bit evasively.
As smart as Ouyang Shuo, he naturally figured out the reason. Huo Guang, who had a deep entanglement with Shangguanjie in his history, was currently serving in Daxia, and he was the governor of Liao and Jin. He had a great reputation.
Comparing the two, it is no wonder that Shangguan Jie's mood is not complicated.
The reason why Ouyang Shuo remembered Shangguan Jie was not only his relationship with Huo Guang, but also the legendary experience of Shangguan Jie's granddaughter, Empress Shangguan, which aroused his interest.
Shangguan entered the palace as a Jieyu at the age of six, and more than a month later, Shangguan was registered as a queen, the youngest queen in Chinese history.
Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty was the youngest son of Emperor Wu. During the scourge of witchcraft, the prince Liu Ju committed suicide.
After the death of Emperor Wu, Emperor Zhao succeeded to the throne with the support of his ministers. He was only eight years old. In 74 BC, Emperor Zhao, who had reigned for only fourteen years, died of illness in Chang'an at the age of twenty-one.
Later, under the auspices of Huo Guang and other ministers, Liu He, the king of Changyi, was adopted as the son of Emperor Zhao, and he was established as the crown prince.
Liu He reigned for only 27 days, and was deposed as a common man because of his excessive debauchery and failure to protect the country. He was known as the deposed emperor of the Han Dynasty in history.
After Liu He was abolished, and under the auspices of Huo Guang, Liu Xun was adopted by Emperor Zhao as his son, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and Shangguan was still the empress dowager.
And Liu Xun, Emperor Xuandi of the Han Dynasty, was the grandson of Prince Liu Ju who committed suicide in the disaster of witchcraft, and was raised in Yeting. History is such a reincarnation, going round and round, as if returning to the starting point again.
Perhaps it was because of the suffering experience in childhood that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty had the opportunity to understand the sufferings of the people.
Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was a well-known virtuous emperor in Chinese history. During his reign, the country’s politics was clear, the society was harmonious, the economy was prosperous, and the barbarians were well-behaved. It was called "filial piety and Xuan Zhongxing" in history. Historians said that the Western Han Dynasty was the most powerful under his rule.
In the Western Han Dynasty, which was famous for its strict establishment of temple names and posthumous names, Liu Xun was one of the four emperors with official temple names. The other three were Han Gaozu Liu Bang, Han Wendi and Han Wudi.
In 49 BC, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty passed away, and Emperor Han Yuan ascended the throne. The 40-year-old Empress Dowager Shangguan was honored as the Empress Dowager until she passed away in 37 BC at the age of 52.
Empress Shangguan is the second empress and empress dowager who is in charge of the government after Empress Lu, but she is not the winner of the court struggle, she is not the heroine who holds the power to rule the world, but a grass that swings in the wind, disobedient If he did, he would be in danger of being killed or assassinated at any time, and he has been a widow for 37 years.
From the perspective of status, the Shangguan family has the honor that women all over the world crave but cannot get. It seems that they have everything, but in fact they have nothing.
She was a queen at the age of six, an empress dowager at the age of fifteen, and an empress dowager at forty. She became a widow, her mother was killed when she was 24 years old, and since then she has lost all her blood relatives except for Huo Chengjun, who was abolished by her little aunt.
These things have worn away her childhood happiness, leaving her with only the resentment and loneliness of the deep palace. In that palace, Shangguan was bound to death by a thing called the system until he died.
After seeing this period of history, Ouyang Shuo was also deeply moved.
Seeing Shangguan's grandfather, Shangguan Jie, the "culprit" who sent Shangguan's empress to the palace, there is always a feeling of time and space changing.
Ouyang Shuo was Ouyang Shuo after all, he was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, after accepting the ceremony, he turned sideways, gave way to Bai Qi, and said, "General Shangguan just listen to General Bai Qi's deployment."
"promise!"
Shangguan Jie then paid a visit to Bai Qi, which was regarded as the establishment of the command relationship.
After handing over, Ouyang Shuo immediately returned to the city and handed over all the battlefield affairs to Bai Qi. Immediately, Bai Qi issued a series of military orders in the name of the frontline commander.
The Fifth Army immediately went out of the city to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Peacock King, trying to kill the Peacock King.
Under the attack of the beast horde, the army of more than 400,000 Maurya Empires has been depleted, and they have been completely dispersed. This is the best time to beat the dogs in the water. As long as the fifth army is well-organized, it will be able to completely wipe out this army.
With the ability of the head of the army, Xiao Chaogui, no one will be disappointed. The fifth army suffered heavy losses. The whole army must have hated the Maurya army for a long time, so there is no need to worry about morale.
Such a favorable combination of time, place and people, once successful, would be equivalent to beheading the Maurya Dynasty.
The remaining four legions of the Longxiang Army, under Bai Qi's unified dispatch, cooperated with the 320,000 Han cavalry that Ouyang Shuo had just summoned to launch a general attack on the Maurya Dynasty army.
The first to suffer was the Maurya Army stationed in Pompin City. Under the command of Shangguan Jie, 320,000 Han cavalry acted as the vanguard, rushing towards the enemy like waves.
The Maurya Dynasty army on the opposite side turned pale with fright at the moment when the big Han cavalry was summoned, and immediately pulled out of the camp and evacuated without even thinking about it.
It's a pity that no matter how fast they are, they can't be as fast as the fast-moving big Han cavalry.
The war resumed, and the situation of the national war was reversed.
…………
Huaxia District, Han Dynasty, Luoyang.
In the majestic Weiyang Palace, on the cold dragon chair, the mid-year-old Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a livid face, his hands were like eagles, tightly holding the armrests on both sides of the dragon chair, his eyes were blood red, and he wanted to choose someone to eat.
"Too much deception, simply too much deception!"
As proud as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he would never have imagined that because of his pride, he would not bow to the Great Xia Dynasty and cause such disasters for the Dynasty.
The moment the 320,000 forbidden troops were teleported away, Emperor Wu of the Han's heart sank. According to past practice, once the forbidden troops were teleported away, less than one in ten of them could be sent back.
This was fatal to the Han Dynasty.
Daxia's revenge was really ruthless and accurate, which made Emperor Wu of the Han extremely angry, but he was helpless. The Han Dynasty dominated the Central Plains, and powerful enemies looked around. Once the forbidden army is not there, the enemy will immediately be torn to pieces.
For the wilderness, this is nothing more than normal.
The only way out before the Great Han Dynasty was to surrender to a certain force in order to save their lives, but with the nature of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, even if he died, he would not surrender.
Otherwise, Emperor Wu of the Han would not have bowed his head to Ouyang Shuo.
Right now, the news that the imperial army was sent away is still firmly blocked, but the paper cannot contain the fire after all. Once the news spreads, the Han Dynasty is afraid that it will collapse without fighting.
On the icy dragon chair, the hero of a generation, Emperor Wu of Han, looked bleak.
…………
On June 16, Hetao battlefield.
In just five days, the army of the Maurya Dynasty was beaten back steadily, unable to hold back at all. Fortunately, after the Peacock King escaped from birth and joined the main force, the situation was slightly stabilized.
Even so, it cannot reverse the defeat.
In order to consume 320,000 Han cavalry on the battlefield, Bai Qi's attack was both resolute and ruthless. In the later stage of the war, sacrifices were not considered, and he must cause huge damage to the Maurya Dynasty army.
"These lunatics!"
Under Daxia's fierce pursuit, the Peacock King's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth, showing his true character, and ordered the entire army to withdraw from the Hetao Province, completely extinguishing his ambitions for the Hetao Province.
This time, the Peacock King really lost his wife and lost his army. Not to mention the heavy loss, he fled back to the country in despair before he could even take down a single city.
After this battle, the prestige of the Peacock King in Tianzhu District is bound to be greatly reduced.
The Gupta Dynasty in the south got the news of the withdrawal of the Maurya Dynasty, and they did nothing under the siege of the Imperial Guards. Without a second word, they withdrew quickly and quickly disappeared into the vast sea.
Slow down, I'm afraid I will be surrounded by the Great Xia Army.
Gupta King Akbar is worthy of being a senior member of the Azure Badge. He is not very active in attacking, and retreating is called slipping. Before the Indian Ocean Fleet recovered, it had already returned to Tianzhu District.
It's really amazing.
With the withdrawal of the Gupta Dynasty, the national war initiated by the Tianzhu District ended in anticlimax in mid-June. When the results came out, it was unavoidable to surprise people.
What's even more unexpected is yet to come.
The army of the Maurya Dynasty wanted to withdraw, but Daxia refused to agree. Before the national war was over, he immediately arranged for the big Han cavalry to chase them all the way, and brazenly entered the territory of the Maurya Dynasty, setting off a bloody storm.
Between the host and the guest, the owner has changed.
For Daxia, the Han Iron Cavalry is a death squad. Naturally, it must use its remaining heat to sweep the border of the Mauryan Dynasty, destroy its villages, and rob its property as revenge.
"However the Peacock Dynasty treats us, they will pay back twice as much." Ouyang Shuo said.
The purpose of Ouyang Shuo's doing this is naturally not pure revenge. One is to consume the Han cavalry and clear obstacles for the next military operation in the southeast theater; Rise of the Maurya Dynasty.
Only when the Peacock Dynasty is hurt, the Peacock King will not think otherwise.
Another point, if this can be used to weaken the strength of the Maurya Dynasty and make it fall to the same level as the Gupta Dynasty, then the competition pattern in Tianzhu District will usher in new variables.
When the two tigers are fighting, they no longer have the energy to fight Da Xia.
In this way, the tranquility of the border of Hetao Province can be maintained to the greatest extent, and precious time can be bought for Daxia to solve internal hidden dangers.
By the end of the National War Month, in addition to the summoned Royal City Forbidden Army, the Maurya Dynasty lost at least 400,000 troops, which was equivalent to a complete annihilation of an army group, and the border was reduced to ruins.
Before the start of the war, the Peacock King never imagined that it would end up like this.
