After the news of the war between the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army reached the Cheshi Kingdom, King Noorhan of the Cheshi Kingdom immediately sent someone to summon Yaham, the Prime Minister of the Cheshi Kingdom, to the palace.

"Okay! That's great! These two bandits who divided the Gaochang Kingdom finally started fighting!" King Noorhan said to Prime Minister Yaham with some gloating.

Cheshi Kingdom actually has a long border with Gaochang Kingdom. Nearly half of the western border of the southern governor's office in Gaochang Kingdom are adjacent to Cheshi Kingdom.

In the last war with the Polu Army, Gaochang State suffered heavy losses. It suddenly became the fourth-strongest country in the Western Regions. Cheshi Kingdom replaced Gaochang State and became the new second-strongest country in the Western Regions. This made King Noorhan of Cheshi Kingdom and also had some ideas about the remaining territory of Gaochang State. King Noorhan of King Noorhan very much hoped to annex some of the land of Gaochang State to enhance the Cheshi Kingdom's own strength and narrow the gap with Dayuan State.

For this reason, King Noorhan of Cheshi Kingdom had been planning for a long time. However, before the Cheshi Kingdom had time to take action, Dayuan Kingdom took the lead and directly annexed the entire southern governor's office of Gaochang Kingdom, leaving Cheshi Kingdom with the end of the game to watch so many provinces and vassal states of Gaochang Kingdom were divided by Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army.

When the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army divided the Gaochang Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom could only stare at me. With the southern governor's office of the former Gaochang Kingdom, the Cheshi Kingdom had no chance to participate in this division feast, unless it risked the war with the Dayuan Kingdom immediately.

Prime Minister Yaham said with a serious look on his face: "Your Majesty the King, this time when Dayuan and the Polu Army fight, it is best to have a result of both losses. If the family wins completely, it will be a blessing for our Cheshi Kingdom!"

King Noorhan smiled and said, "Prime Minister, just relax! Although the Dayuan Kingdom is very powerful, the Polu Army is not a soft persimmon. None of the two families can easily eat each other. This war must be a protracted war!"

Prime Minister Yaham nodded and said, "I hope so, Your Majesty the King, you summoned me to the palace today, I wonder what else is there?"

King Noorhan said: "The war between two tigers will inevitably be injured. Although our Cheshi Kingdom will not participate in the war between the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army in the future, our Cheshi Kingdom must speed up the expansion of the army. Perhaps this war between the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army is an opportunity for our Cheshi Kingdom to replace the Dayuan Kingdom and become the most powerful country in the Western Regions!"

There are currently 36 legions in the Cheshi Kingdom, but many of the legions of Cheshi Kingdom suffered heavy damage in the last war with the Polu Army. Now many of these legions that have suffered heavy damage have not recovered.

Prime Minister Yaham said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty the King, I will restore all the legions of our Cheshi Kingdom to full force as soon as possible."

"That's not enough! Our Cheshi Kingdom needs more troops, and just thirty-six legions is far from enough!"

"This... His Majesty the King, if we add a new legion, our Cheshi Kingdom's finances will be a little unaffordable."

"I have considered it and will take out some wealth from the royal vault to use it for the next expansion of our Cheshi Kingdom. Once there is an opportunity to make our Cheshi Kingdom the number one power in the Western Regions, our Cheshi Kingdom must not let it go!"

At present, in the Western Regions, in addition to the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army, only Cheshi Kingdom and Anxi Kingdom can be called powerful countries. After the war between the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army broke out, Anxi Kingdom also chose to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. However, the difference between Anxi Kingdom and Cheshi Kingdom was that Cheshi Kingdom was still thinking about getting a bargain in the end, while Anxi Kingdom really didn’t have the energy to pay attention to the war between the Dayuan Kingdom and the Polu Army.

The border conflict between the Sleeping Kingdom and the Europa Empire on the Western continent has not been completely resolved yet. The vast majority of the troops of the Sleeping Kingdom are concentrated near the border line adjacent to the Europa Empire.

Starting from March 18, the Polu Army launched a comprehensive attack on the Dayuan Army, which was entrenched in many provinces and vassal states of the former Gaochang State, and soon achieved very good results. However, as more and more Dayuan Army troops were put into the battlefield, the troops of both sides were in a stalemate on many battlefields, and the losses of the troops of both sides became increasingly greater.

On April 17, in a palace in the former Gaochang Palace of the Kingdom of Gaochang City, the commander of the Western Regions Legion Lian Po reported to Liu Ji in a deep voice: "Lord, so far, our Polu Army has seized the territory of a province and a vassal state from the Dayuan army. This province and a vassal state belong to the Western Governor's Office of the former Gaochang State. However, now our Polu Army attacks the Western Governor's Office of the former Gaochang State, but the forces that our Polu Army attack the Western Governor's Office of the former Gaochang State were blocked in the Edao Province, and our Polu Army attacks the Southern Governor's Office of the former Gaochang State, and the troops that our Polu Army attacks the Southern Governor's Office of the former Gaochang State have not made much progress."

The Edao Province is the seat of the former Western Governor's Office of Gaochang State, and its capital is Sagmore City.

Liu Ji frowned and said, "Dayuan Kingdom is worthy of being the most powerful country in the Western Regions. The combat effectiveness of its army is indeed extraordinary. It has been almost a month since the war started. Our Polu Army has not made much progress in three directions. What is the loss of our front-line troops?"

The three directions of the attack of the Polu Army refer to the three governors' offices of the former Gaochang Kingdom.

Lian Po immediately said: "The four elite cavalry units, including the Tiger Ben Army, the Black Armored Soldiers, Tiger Leopard Cavalry and White Horse Congyi, have suffered more than 80,000 people since the war started. The combined losses of our Western Regions Legion and the Western Frontier Legion have exceeded 250,000. However, the losses of the Dayuan Army should be far more than our Polu Army. Now the prisoners of war in our Polu Army have exceeded 500,000, and of course, they are almost all soldiers from the former Gaochang Kingdom."

When Liu Ji heard that the total losses of several troops exceeded 330,000, he couldn't help but frown slightly, pondered for a while and asked: "Can the newly formed ten cavalry brigades and twenty infantry brigades be brought to the battlefield now?"

After all, this time it was against the Dayuan Kingdom, the most powerful country in the Western Regions. After the war began, Liu Ji ordered that ten new cavalry brigades and twenty new infantry brigades be formed immediately within the Western Regions Protectorate's Prefecture, and the 30 brigades were formed. The troops of these thirty brigades were mainly from the soldiers of Gaochang State who surrendered to the Polu Army and the garrison battalions of various states of the Western Regions Protectorate's Prefecture. Some young and strong men were recruited from the people of the Western Regions Protectorate's Prefecture, and some officers and veterans were drawn from the Western Regions Legion and the Western Frontier Legion.

In addition to forming ten new cavalry brigades and twenty infantry brigades, Liu Ji also transferred the elite infantry unit of the Guards and Mo Daobing to the Western Regions Protectorate. At present, the five cavalry brigades and fifteen infantry brigades of the Guards, as well as the 138,000 Mo Daobings, have entered the Western Regions Protectorate.

Lian Po thought about it for a while and said, "Lord, although the newly formed ten cavalry brigades and twenty infantry brigades are fully equipped, they have to wait a little longer if they want to pull them to the battlefield. After all, they are all newly formed troops."

Liu Ji turned his head and asked Jia Xu in the palace: "How many troops has the Dayuan Kingdom invested in the three former Gaochang Kingdom's Protectorate?"

After fighting with Dayuan, Liu Ji transferred Jia Xu, the commander of Heishuitai, to Gaochang City. Follow Jia Xu to Gaochang City, there were also a large number of Heishuitai's spies. Now these Heishuitai's spies have been sent out by Jia Xu, and many of them have been sent to Dayuan to strengthen the intelligence work of Heishuitai in Dayuan.

Jia Xu said: "Reported to the lord, according to the information from our Heishuitai, before the war started, twelve cavalry corps and twenty-two infantry corps were stationed in the eleven provinces and seventeen vassal states of the former Gaochang State. In addition, Dayuan State also incorporated about one million and seventeen vassal states of the former Gaochang State. After the war, due to the rapid offensive of our Polu Army, Dayuan State sent four more cavalry corps, eight infantry corps and one million auxiliary troops to the provinces and vassal states of the former Gaochang State. In addition, Dayuan State also mobilized 500,000 troops of the affiliated states and entered the territory of the former Gaochang State."

After pausing, Jia Xu said, "Dayuan Kingdom did lose a lot in the war in the previous month. According to the data obtained by our Hei Shuitai, the Dayuan Kingdom's own army lost nearly 500,000. When the Gaochang army that surrendered to Dayuan Kingdom lost 900,000 in a month. In this way, Dayuan Kingdom still had about 6.4 million troops in various provinces and vassal states of the former Gaochang Kingdom, and the number was very large."

Liu Ji touched his chin and said, "The Western Regions and the Western Frontiers have a total of twenty cavalry brigades and forty infantry brigades. The Guards have five cavalry brigades and fifteen infantry brigades. Including the newly formed ten cavalry brigades and twenty infantry brigades, as well as the five elite troops of the Tiger Ben Army, Xuan Armored Soldiers, Tiger Leopard Cavalry, White Horse Congyi, and Mo Dao Bing. In the entire Western Regions Protectorate, the troops we can mobilize should be more than five million. If we have lost 330,000 people, there are still nearly four.7 million left. In terms of military strength, our Polu Army is still at a disadvantage."

Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "Lord, Dayuan has been advocating the style of martial arts for hundreds of years. Many men in Dayuan have practiced martial arts since childhood. If Dayuan is willing, they can even mobilize tens of millions of young and strong men to join the army in a short period of time. Therefore, their subordinates are worried that Dayuan will increase troops to the front line in the face of the current stalemate on several battlefields. In that case, we can only draw troops from the local legion, the grassland legion, the Beiting legion and the Eastern Barbarian legion to support the Western Regions Protectorate."

At this time, Zhang Liang hesitated and said to Liu Ji: "Lord, our Polu Army is not at a disadvantage in the situation now. It is better to stop when we see it, and avoid continuing to get entangled with Dayuan. Dayuan should not be willing to fight with our Polu Army and both sides suffer."

When Liu Ji first launched a war against Dayuan, he had the idea of ​​competing for the overlord of the Western Regions with Dayuan. How could he end the war with Dayuan so easily? So Liu Ji shook his head and said, "Since he has fought with Dayuan, we must defeat Dayuan, let the guards and Mo Dao soldiers rush to the front line as soon as possible. The newly formed ten cavalry brigades and twenty infantry brigades will definitely go to the front line in half a month."

Liu Ji's words made Zhang Liang and Jia Xu smiled bitterly. It seemed that Liu Ji had made up his mind to decide a victory or defeat with Dayuan.

Just as Liu Ji and several civil and military officials under his command were discussing the war with Dayuan, someone was discussing the assassination of Liu Ji in a courtyard in the east city of Gaochang City.

"Your Majesty, it has been confirmed that Liu Ji lives in the palace in Gaochang City, but the entire palace is very vigilant, so it is almost impossible for us to force it into it." A stunning beauty said to Su Laishan, the leader of the Mandala Dark Hall. This stunning beauty is Su Laishan's confidant, named Luwaya, and has the strength of a gold medal killer.

Su Laishan, the leader of the Dark Hall, who is fascinating to the whole country, also has the power of a gold medal killer.

There are only five halls on the surface of Mandala, namely Renzitang, Yizitang, Lizitang, Zhizitang and Xinzitang. However, in the hands of the Mandala Presbyterian Church, there is also a hall called the Dark Hall, or it can be called the Law Enforcement Hall. Once the personnel at the five halls of Mandala betrayal of Mandala, the Dark Hall will send a killer to chase the betrayer, and they will never die.

Su Laishan, the leader of the Mandala Dark Hall, said with a serious look: "This time, in order to assassinate Liu Ji, we can be said to have sent all the power we can use to Gaochang City, so we must be more careful this time. Our Mandala cannot withstand too much losses."

Luvaye nodded and said, "This time, our secret hall, including you, there are a total of ten gold medal killers and eighteen silver medal killers coming to Gaochang City. In addition, the remaining seven gold medal killers, thirteen silver medal killers and twenty bronze medal killers at the other five halls, as well as four silver medal killers and twenty bronze medal killers drawn from the Mandala helm training camp. Our Mandala is definitely coming out this time, and we really need to be more careful."

The leader of the Dark Hall, Su Laishan, frowned and said, "Can you get into the imperial palace in Gaochang City?"

Luvaye shook his head and said, "It's very difficult. This time Liu Ji did not have female relatives around him. The original maids in the palace have long been dismissed. Now the entire palace is full of Liu Ji's guards, and there is not even a maid."

Su Laishan sighed and said, "We Mandra people have promised to Dayuan Kingdom and the Holy Fire Sect respectively that if we do not kill Liu Ji within three months, we Mandra will compensate Dayuan Kingdom and the Holy Fire Sect twice the gold. Now a month has passed. If we can't find any other way to enter the Gaochang City Imperial Palace, we will have to take the risk in the end!"
