The so-called Touzhai is actually the place where the tribal leaders here live and manage the tribes, which is equivalent to the capital of the Central Plains Dynasty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Shiwei and Balan led an army of 20,000 headhunters back to the base area.

Shiwei's base is in the territory of present-day Laos, on a horizontal line with the territory of the headhunters, and the closest point to Jiaozhou controlled by the Wei army is only more than 200 li away, but the more than 200 li are full of tropical rainforests and miasma ravines, and it is difficult for the Wei army to cross these natural barriers.

Shiwei settled Balan and his party and immediately convened his cronies to discuss the matter.

Shiwei did not immediately launch an attack on the Shatuo tribe in the south, but built armor in his base area to train the army.

In addition to the 20,000 headhunter troops brought by Balan, Shiwei's command also has more than 6,000 direct troops, some of these direct troops are the pro-army of Fang Shiwei and the Fusang people who fled here with him, and the others are the army composed of the people of the small tribes he has conquered in various ways in the past two years, and these more than 6,000 people are the army that really belongs to him.

Half a month later, the Roman Empire in the west and the Jin State were still fighting bloody battles around the Caucasian defense line.

However, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the Jin state, and the two fortresses south of the Caucasian fortress had been captured.

In the battle to capture these two castles, the elite of Rome, the Spartan legions, made the first contribution, it was they who first captured the walls of the Jin people, and it was they who braved the rain of arrows of the Jin army to break open the gates of the fortress.

"It seems that the golden man can't hold it!"

Cao Cao looked at the information in his hand and muttered.

"Jin people are not so inferior! Relying on the geographical advantages of the Caucasus Mountains, it is impossible to stop the Romans!? ”

Chen Gong said: "Your Majesty, in fact, they are not to blame!" It was we who did the Romans a great favor! ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said with a smile: "Not bad! Our armies in the Western Regions and the Northern Protectorate have held back most of the Jin Kingdom's army! ”

"Do you think the golden people can hold it?" Cao Cao asked.

Chen Gong, Xi Zhicai, and Xun You exchanged a look, and Xi Zhicai arched his hand and said: "Weichen thinks that if there is no accident, the Jin people will definitely not be able to hold it!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, "Then should we take advantage of the fire to rob, or help them?" ”

Xun You arched his hand and said: "The minister thinks that he should help Jin Guo!" If the Kingdom of Jin is defeated by the Romans, it will not be a good thing for us! The strength of the Romans will soar, and it will definitely threaten the interests of the empire in peace and the Western Regions! ”

Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully.

Chen Gong said: "What Gongda said is extremely true, but for now, it is not so!" ”

Everyone was stunned, and Cao Cao asked puzzledly, "What does Gongtai mean?" ”

Chen Gong bowed his hand to Cao Cao, "Your Majesty, the estrangement between us and the Jin Kingdom cannot be resolved overnight!" The people of the Jin Kingdom hated our Great Wei Empire to the core, how could they believe in our sincerity! ”

Everyone was stunned, Cao Cao nodded and said, "What the public platform said is extremely true!" Jin Guo now regards us as a mortal enemy, it is impossible to believe that we will help them, once we take action, it will make Jin Guo highly nervous! ”

After a pause, "Since that's the case, then we have to take advantage of the fire to rob!" ”

Cao Cao shook his head with a wry smile, and said with emotion: "Why is it so difficult to be a good person?" ”

Chen Gong, Xi Zhicai, and Xun You were stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

Cao Cao asked, "How is the defense of the Zag Mountains?" ”

The Zag Mountains are located north of Nissa and are an important line of defense for the current Jin state against the Wei army.

Chen Gong replied: "According to the intelligence of Jinyiwei ten days ago, there are 300,000 troops in the Jin Kingdom in the Zag Mountains, of which the three legions of 150,000 troops are the main legions, and the Tiger Legion is one of the four elites of the Jin Kingdom, but this elite has found the heavy damage of our army two years ago!" In addition to these 150,000 main army corps, there are also 150,000 tribal coalition troops, and this part of the men and horses has limited combat power! ”

Cao Cao pondered: "300,000 horses defend along the Zag line, this amount is not small!" Who are the leading generals? ”

"Shake it out, our old rival! He was in charge of the defense from the mountains of the Zagjin Kingdom to the northern front of Kangju! ”

"What is the situation of the gold **** on the Kangju North Line?"

"Eight legions, six of which are the main legions of the Jin Kingdom!" Chen Gong said with a smile.

Cao Cao smiled, "Okay! This Jin Guo really cares about us! ”

Xun You smiled: "He doesn't care!" Two years ago, we fought two wars with the Great Wei Empire, each one worse than the other, and finally lost all the land southeast of the Tunguska River! Loss of a large number of troops! According to Weichen, even if the Jin people lose the Caucasus, they will not transfer troops from the line of Zagjin! ”

Cao Cao nodded, frowned, and said, "It's really annoying to be cared about so much!" What about the Golden Army of Tunguska? ”

Chen Gong replied: "On the defense line of the Tunguska River, the Jin State has eight legions, five of which are regular legions!" ”

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "There are only twenty main army corps in the Jin Kingdom, and they actually use thirteen to guard against us!" ”

Shaking his head, "How many people are there in the Caucasian line?" ”

Chen Gong said: "Three legions plus two servant legions!" One of these three legions is in the Bosphoru Kingdom! In addition to the sixteen regular corps mentioned, there were four corps that were all around Petersburg as strategic reserves! ”

"So there are no signs of a movement in this strategic reserve?" Cao Cao asked.

Chen Gong said: "Only one corps is transferred in the direction of the Caucasus!" ”

Cao Cao frowned and said, "This Jin Kingdom is really strange!" If you are so worried about our troops, why not simply abandon the Caucasus and the Bosphoru! It didn't belong to them in the first place! ”

Chen Gong smiled: "Maybe the Jin Kingdom Imperial Hall is hesitating!" ”

Cao Cao glanced at the three of them and asked with a wry smile, "How do you say we can rob while the fire is on?" Jin Ren is like a turtle to us now, and there is nowhere to eat! ”

The three of them also found it very difficult.

Chen Gong arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, at present, we can only wait and see what happens!" Of course, if Your Majesty is willing to break through the defense line of the Kingdom of Jin at a great price, we can still do it! “

Cao Cao waved his hand and said categorically: "No! If we gather a heavy army to attack, we don't care about the number of victories or defeats for the time being, I am afraid that we will make wedding clothes for others! ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" The three of them arched their hands.

Cao Cao said: "Let's wait and see what happens for the time being!" Is there a repose for rest? ”

Chen Gong took out a piece of music from his sleeve and presented it, "Your Majesty, I received it only an hour ago!" ”

Cao Cao opened the piece and read it carefully. His brows furrowed, "This Yaduru does seem to have ambitions!" He secretly recruited dead soldiers, and built a military camp in the mountains near his hometown to secretly train private soldiers! There are more than 50,000 people! Fortunately, he has little access to the King of Sabbat, who is now under our tight control! (To be continued.) )
