Chapter seven hundred and sixty fourth reinforcements from the southern barbarians
In Donglai County, thousands of ships gathered here. Yu Yunwen, the commander of the Navy, boarded a 1,500-foot-long ship, and the navy generals Zheng Zhilong, Li Shunchen, and Xu Sheng also boarded the ship.
This huge warship, which is between 40 and 50 meters in length, was already a behemoth in the era of wooden sailing, and can accommodate more than 200 soldiers and sailors.
Large tower ships that can carry thousands of people on the surface of the Yangtze River are not suitable for complex sea surfaces. The wind and waves on the sea will easily destroy bulky large tower ships. Moreover, ships on the sea mainly rely on wind power, while the surface of the Yangtze River, water flow, boaters, and wind power are equally important.
The 120,000 soldiers and sailors of the Fubo Legion were ordered to gather in Donglai County.
"Our Fubo Legion finally has a larger warship."
Yu Yunwen attaches great importance to such a lucky ship.
The Fubo Legion called the 1,500-foot-mass ship called the Dafu Ship (eighth-level naval battle warship, 47 meters), while the 400-foot-mass ship was called the Xiaofu Ship (sixth-level naval battle warship, 30 meters).
In addition to the large and small Fu Ships, the Fu Bo Legion also has a large number of relatively flexible boats.
"The main force of the Liaodong Army has left Liaodong, and the Xia Palace ordered us to attack the Goryeo Kingdom and Liaonan."
Yu Yunwen joined Chutian's forces for several years, but he has never participated in the war, just because Yu Yunwen is good at water warfare, but he has no chance to show it to Yu Yunwen.
However, Yu Yunwen has been silently training the navy, but the level of the navy soldiers of the Fubo Legion has not fallen, and the average level has reached level 65.
"The scouts discovered that the Liaodong Army also established a navy in southern Liaoning to engage in trade from southern Liaoning to Goryeo."
Zheng Zhilong has been managing the navy for a long time and has known that Mingguan has a navy.
The territory of Mingguan, trade between southern Liao and Goryeo also required fleets, and Mingguan also had naval generals.
An official in charge of logistics said: "The Fubo Legion is ready to go to sea at any time."
"Attack the southern part of Liao, find the Ming King's fleet, and then destroy it."
After the formation of the Fubo Legion, Yu Yunwen ordered the Fubo Legion to go out to sea.
Thousands of ships, transporting 120,000 soldiers, sailors and servants, left the port of Donglai County.
The numerous ships sailed towards southern Liaoning like a city wall of hundreds of miles.
One thousand two hundred ships covered the sea, with thousands of sails!
Teams of soldiers holding long spears stood on both sides of the deck, with exquisite armor.
The crossbow set up on the warship, with a large bowl-mouthed gun facing the sea.
Zheng Zhilong stood at the bow of the ship with ambition.
The Fubo Legion is the real one that can raise troops for a thousand days and use troops for a while.
The Chutian power has smashed the silver that has been in the Fubo Legion in recent years, reaching 10 million taels.
...
In the Xia Palace, Chu Tian went to Mangshan to deal with the powerful enemy Lao Qin, and Xia Tianliang stayed behind the palace.
The news sent back from Youzhou is very bad.
Lao Qin was good at defending, while Mingguan was good at attacking, and his troops were divided into three groups, sweeping over Youzhou and Monan.
Once Youzhou is occupied by Mingguan, Chutian's forces can only retreat to Hebei and Central Plains.
Not only that, the loss of Youzhou led to a chain reaction, and Jizhou was most likely unable to protect it.
"The Liaodong Legion may have to attack Shanggu County, but there are only Xu Rong and Xiahou Yuan in Shanggu County, which is difficult to defend. Wei Qing may not be able to do anything..."
The summer is cold and frowning.
The threat brought by Mingguan is too great.
The situation in Liaodong is complicated and there are many tribes. They can’t wait to enter the pass and plunder the wealthy pass.
A few years after Jizhou returned to peace, the granary was abundant, and many tribes in Liaodong coveted the wealth in the pass, and under the slogan of entering the pass, they became extremely crazy, especially the leaders such as Murong Ba and Nurhaci, who were extremely obsessed with entering the pass, and entering the pass was fatal attraction to them.
"Li Mu and others from Monan want to deal with Nurhaci's peak Eight Banners and Wanyan Aguda. His number of generals seems to be insufficient."
Although the bonus of Li Mu and Zhao She can cover all the cavalry in the south of the Mo River, Li Mu may feel difficult to divide the troops when attacking several directions at the same time.
The biggest threat is the Liaodong Army in Mingguan.
When Chu Tian left the Xia Palace, he took away some of the generals of the Imperial Guards, but he still left several military generals to spare, including Li Xiuning, the commander of the Detachment of the Western Regions, Huo Qing, the famous general of the Bohemia Kingdom, Jessica, King Arthur Artoria, and the round table knight Bedville and others...
Huo Qing has two characteristics: Thirteen soldiers return to Yumen (S-level characteristics, when defending the city, the defense of the defenders in the city is +12%, morale decline rate -13%, and the probability of the defenders rebellion -25%), and the golden armor of the yellow sand battles (S-level characteristics, when marching against unfavorable terrain, adverse terrain affects -25%, morale decline rate -10%), one is used to defend the city and the other is used to march.
Under the premise that the lack of military generals on all fronts of Chutian, military generals with two practical S-level characteristics can already come in handy.
The Xia Palace mobilized all the military generals, so Huo Qing also planned to participate in the war.
"Maybe we can transfer Hefei and Xuchang's guards to Youzhou. The Jiangdong Army did not attack Hefei, Zhang Liao, Ma Yuan and others can go to Youzhou, right?"
Huo Qing knew that the situation of the Xia army was tense and lacked military generals in the north, and the main force was used to attack Guanzhong, so he proposed to transfer the military generals guarding the Jianghuai River to Youzhou and the south of the Mo.
"Don't take risks easily. The people in Jiangdong are not ordinary people. They will not attack Hefei City now because we have deployed heavy troops and a group of war-going generals in Hefei. If we transfer these people from Jianghuai to Youzhou, I can be sure that the Jiangdong Army will be under Hefei City in less than a month. The existence of the teleportation array allows the Jiangdong Army to easily mobilize its troops."
Xia Tianliang knew how dangerous it was to let the Jiangdong Army intervene in the Northern War.
The Jiangdong Army is strong, not only good at water warfare, but also land warfare.
"The north is on the defensive, and the current generals should be able to defend..."
"Your Highness the Princess, Mu Ke, the lord of the Southern Barbarians, asked for a meeting."
"Mu Ke? Invite her in."
Xia Tianliang heard that Mu Ke, who controlled the Southern Barbarians, was coming, so he asked Li Xiuning to lead Mu Ke in.
"What kind of monster is this..."
When the imperial guards of Prince Xia’s mansion saw a general over two meters tall coming in, almost all the imperial guards looked up to the general.
Mu Ke brought a female general and this general who was over two meters tall into Prince Xia's Mansion.
"I have heard that the Northern War broke out... After the National War, the tribes in the Southern Barbarians did not move, so I can lend you 10,000 or 20,000 elite troops."
Mu Ke made it straightforward and explained his purpose.
The lord of the southern barbarians wanted to intervene in the northern war.
"Qin Liangyu, and Wu Tu's bones?"
Xia Tianliang met these two generals from the Southern Barbarians.
During his expedition to the Western Regions, Qin Liangyu and Wu Tugu also participated in the war. As for Qin Liangyu, he was very familiar with the generals of the Xia Palace.
The Southern Barbarians and Western Regions are actually members of the Xia King Alliance, but the Western Regions Protectorate cannot draw troops, and most of the places here are in deep mountains and forests. As long as the relationship with the barbarians is handled well, the troops can be drawn.
"Qin Liangyu's white-rod soldiers and Wutubo's vine armored soldiers can be loaned to you, including two generals."
“What reward do you need?”
"I hope that when merging with the Western Regions Protectorate, Huo'an's status can be guaranteed."
"I understand what you mean."
Xia Tianliang has a good impression of Mu Ke.
Their purpose of setting out is somewhat similar. Xia Tianliang's purpose was to preserve Chu Tian's foundation and at the same time determine the status of his son. Mu Ke's purpose was to ensure that Huo'an could still be crowned king after the Western Regions Protectorate was re-integrated into the territory of the Han Empire in the future.
This is an equivalent exchange.
Xia Tianliang acquiesced to this exchange.
She lacked military generals, Qin Liangyu was a commander, and Wutugu was a powerful general. Their special troops, white pole soldiers and vine armored soldiers were also elite. Borrowing these two soldiers was a timely help.
"Qin Liangyu, Wu Tu Gu, can go to Youzhou to deal with the Liaodong Legion. The pressure brought by the Liaodong Legion is too great. Do you have any questions?"
Xia Tianliang looked up at Wutugu. She estimated that Wutugu was nearly two meters tall, and her body size was like a giant.
"His height seems to have not reached its peak yet..."
Mu Ke said.
"How high is his force?"
"It's currently 96, and the peak is 98..."
"98? It seems that Wu Tu Gu was a hidden general in the Three Kingdoms period."
Xia Tianliang was a little surprised. The peak force of Wutu Gu reached the level of Dian Wei, and he was already the number one fierce general of the Southern Barbarians.
However, Wu Tubo's body size is indeed monster-level.
At the peak of Wutu Bone, his height may be two meters four meters and two meters five meters tall, nearly one meter taller than ordinary soldiers. Such a giant can be imagined for combat power.
"You Wu Tugu went to Youzhou with a higher chance of winning."
"You have to be careful. Although the combat power of Wutukou's vine armored soldiers is not weak, the disadvantage of the vine armored soldiers is that they are afraid of fire. Maybe some NPCs don't know, but they must know it. Therefore, it is best to use the vine armored soldiers during melee. At that time, when the two armies are in a melee and the other party cannot use fire attack, then the vine armored soldiers can use their own uses."
Mu Ke explained the pros and cons of the vine armored soldiers to Xia Tianliang.
She has been using the rattan armored soldiers for a long time, so she knows how to avoid the disadvantages of the rattan armored soldiers.
The vine armored soldiers are indeed afraid of fire, but it does not mean that the vine armored soldiers will be restrained at any time. Fire attacks need to be prepared in advance. When Zhuge Liang burns the vine armored soldiers, he must lure the vine armored soldiers into the valley. Otherwise, the Shu army will fight with the vine armored soldiers, and the fire attacks will burn together with their own people.
"What's the situation in the Western Regions Protectorate?"
Xia Tianliang ordered Li Xiuning to bring a tea tray and ask Mu Ke about the affairs of the Western Region Protectorate.
Mu Ke and Huo An are husband and wife, so from Mu Ke, you can learn about the movements of the Western Regions Protectorate.
If the Western Regions Protectorate has excess troops, Xia Tianliang might as well borrow troops from the Western Regions Protectorate.
Mu Ke replied: "The expeditionary force of the Western Regions Protectorate should have invaded the Pamir Plateau at this time, with the target of Dayuan. If Ogedei was allowed to occupy Dayuan, the Kushan Empire, and the Mughal Empire in India, then the entire Central Asia and South Asia would fall into the hands of Ogedei, and Ogedei would re-establish the Mongol Empire. Therefore, Huoan would not allow a powerful empire in Central and South Asia in the future, so there would be big trouble in the future, and Ogedei might intervene in the civil war of the Han Empire."
