Chapter 948 Final Plan
Beidi Khan Court. read
When Zhao Xu was planning to go south to Australia, a group of cavalry from Tubo arrived here escorting a carriage.
After hearing the news, Mule Hongzhen came out of the sweat tent and hurried forward to greet him.
The person in this carriage was none other than Ashur, who had lost a leg.
"Ashur." The carriage stopped, and Ashur got out with the help of his guards.
Mule Hongzhen immediately grabbed Ashur's shoulders and gave him a firm hug.
"Khan." Ashur bowed slightly towards Mule Hongzhen and raised his head. His eyes were like a deep cold pool.
Such a look made Mule Hongzhen tremble in his heart.
Even when Ashur was expelled to the Western Region by him, he had never shown such a beast-like gaze.
But he knew clearly that Ashur's gaze was definitely not directed at him.
"My brother, I have made you suffer." Muller Hongzhen held Ashur's hand tightly and looked at Ashur's empty right trouser leg. He said solemnly, "I must let this blood debt go." King Yan repays."
Ashur's expression finally changed, "This opportunity has arrived. The British envoy sent us the time to launch a full-scale attack on the 16th of next month."
"Sixteenth, so there are twenty-eight days left?" Muller Hongzhen's eyes showed joy.
During this time, he has been actively preparing for war with the Russian expeditionary force.
In order to eliminate Da Song in one fell swoop during this hunt.
He required that any man taller than a wheel must fight, and even allowed strong women to join the army.
It can be said that this time in Beidi, they are like all the people being soldiers.
It's just that he has to be like this.
He knew very well that this hunt was the last chance to defeat King Yan.
If the war is defeated and the Western natives withdraw from the Eastern lands, Beidi will fall into a miserable situation.
And now, they have 30,000 Russian expeditionary troops operating with them in the north.
During the preparations for the war, Russia and Britain also provided muskets and artillery to Beidi at the same time.
This kind of musket is the front-loading rifle used by King Yan's troops.
After installing these muskets, Beidi became stronger than ever.
In the south, there are coalition forces led by Britain and the cooperation of Jiaozhi and Piaoman.
Such a huge offensive will definitely plunge Dasong into irreversible danger.
Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but become cruel.
"There are still twenty-eight days. It's too long. I can't wait to rush into Dasong now and chop off King Yan's head." Ashur was filled with hatred.
He secretly swore that if he broke into Dasong, he would take revenge on the entire Dasong with blood.
Mullerhonzhen patted Ashur on the shoulder, "My brother, you must calm down at this time. Let us join forces this time to restore the glory of Beidi."
Hearing this, Ashur nodded heavily.
The two entered the camp, and Ashur showed Mulehonzhen the offensive route map given by Britain.
On a rough map, two thinner arrows pointed to Ningjindusi and Songyangguan respectively, and a thick arrow pointed to the Hetao Plain.
"The attack on Yizhou is just an illusion. I will only dispatch part of the army to approach Songyang Pass and attract the defenders of Songyang Pass. The other troops will go to the Hetao Plain and cross the Jin River." Ashur said.
There is no doubt that they cannot take down the pass guarded by Dasong's army.
Then you can only find a way where there are no barriers.
Among them, although there is the Jin River in the Hetao Plain, there are no passes.
The most important thing is that the Jin River freezes in narrow places in winter, and you can even run horses when the ice is three feet deep.
It's winter now and it will be even colder next month.
As long as one or several such places can be found in the Hetao Plain, the Beidi army can march straight in.
"So, Ning Jindusi is also feinting?" Mule Hongzhen's eyes lit up.
This was similar to what he had discussed with Officer Ross.
Even if Ningjin Dusi is captured, there is still a Yan Pass blocking the hinterland of Dasong.
The only Jinhe area that can break into Dasong is the Hetao area, which is also the Yongzhou that the Ma family once controlled.
In the war in the north, instead of dispersing the troops, it is better to gather the strength at one point and smash the northwest of Dasong to pieces.
"Indeed, this is the final plan. As long as we break into Yongzhou, the King of Yan can only gather a large number of troops to deal with it." Ashur said, "If we can win by then, it will be best. If we can't win, it will be fine. When it plays its due role and restrains King Yan’s forces, the southern and Western-Turkish coalition forces will defeat King Yan’s army and invade Dasong.”
Mule Hongzhen nodded slowly, "Even so, we must try our best this time and not give King Yan any more chances."
Hearing this, Ashur looked at Mule Hongzhen with firm eyes.
…
Cochin, Hanoi.
Frankish Governor Macvin was reviewing the Cochin native troops.
The Emperor of Cochin, Ruan Chushan, accompanied Ma Wen with a careful look on his face.
Before the Franks invaded Cochin, Cochin was under the Ruan Dynasty.
Facing the Frankish invasion, their army was quickly defeated.
After that, his father chose to surrender to the Franks, and since then the Franks have become the emperors of Cochin.
From taxation to government affairs to military affairs, they were all subject to Frankish interference.
The Cochin royal family completely became Frank's puppet.
Of course, it’s not just Cochin.
Funan, Nanzhang and even Piaoman, who could compete with them in the southeastern peninsula, were in the same situation.
Since then, he has surrendered to Frank from the bottom of his heart and could not raise a trace of resistance.
"Very good." Looking at the Jiaozhi army wearing a bamboo hat and a uniform gray short shirt, Markwen smiled deeply.
This army was trained by their Frank officers themselves, and they were also equipped with muzzle-loading rifles and field cannons from the Western Land.
Although only a quarter of the 200,000 Jiaozhi troops were equipped with rifled guns and field cannons, the rest were ordinary flintlocks.
But they were also unprecedentedly powerful.
Moreover, they still had a month to continue to provide rifled cannons and field cannons to improve their combat capabilities.
"You often say that Dasong and you are a thousand-year-old enemy. This time we give you a chance to revenge. How much Dasong territory you can seize depends on your own ability." Markwen said to Ruan Chushan.
Ruan Chushan's eyebrows showed a trace of pride.
Although he could not have a trace of resistance to Frank.
But facing Dasong, his heart was unprecedentedly inflated.
Because now the army in his hands is trained and equipped by the Western Land people themselves.
"In the historical records of Jiaozhi, we have occupied Jiaozhou and even Jinzhou of Dasong several times, but unfortunately we lost them later. This time, let Jiaozhi take over all the territory south of Jiujiang." Ruan Chushan said loudly.
"Hahaha..." Mark Wen laughed immediately.
He liked the arrogance and ambition of the Jiaozhi emperor.
In this way, Jiaozhi can become a qualified chess piece for them to hunt Dasong.
