Chapter 955: Preemption

The duel between Huofeng and Gao Yuyao came and went quickly, everyone was still discussing, and there was already a result, not only that, Gao Yuyao almost immediately made a pro-expedition posture again, and led the army north to resist the Turks.

This is not unusual.

What has always been Gao Yuyao's strategy?

That is to stand far away, and use all kinds of means to attract other forces to constantly fight and consume each other, and will not end easily. If it is said that the Wei State suddenly appeared and had to fight because it occupied half of Yangzhou, and not long ago it also had to fight because the Fire Phoenix Sword pointed at the Beijing Division, then such a large-scale northward expedition to the Turks was completely unnecessary.

Don't look at Ashina Huqin and led people to plunder in Qingzhou, but in the end he only brought part of the soldiers and horses, and it was mainly looting, and he didn't think about directly confronting the Daliang army.

Therefore, there is no need for Gao Yuyao to spend so much effort to lead the troops to the battle, as long as a certain number of troops are transferred, Ashina Huqin will inevitably retreat. When the time comes, you can still sit and watch the mountain tiger fight, waiting for the final benefit of the fisherman.

"It can't be that it swells because of the victory over the fire phoenix." Zhou Shaoyu was puzzled, no matter how she looked at it, it didn't look like Gao Yuyao's style.

Not only did Zhou Shaoyu not understand, but the girls were also unexpected, and they couldn't guess what Gao Yuyao wanted to do.

350,000 troops seem to be a lot, but after another increase in the Turks there are also 1780,000, although this is almost the limit of the Turks, it is almost impossible to continue to increase, but with the relatively flat terrain of Youzhou and Jizhou, the Turks are not afraid of one or two with the advantage of the cavalry.

However, it is undeniable that in the territory directly under the jurisdiction of Daliang, Gao Yuyao's reputation is indeed a bit in the ascendant, putting aside the specific situation, just look at the surface. Gao Yuyao can now be regarded as a great achievement.

First conquered the Wei State, then defeated the Fire Phoenix, and now he has to take the initiative to fight the Turks, who are known for their good wars. And the latter heard about the transfer of the army of the Great Liang court, and Ashina Huqin didn't want to immediately order the withdrawal of troops from Qingzhou.

This was originally a normal move, and it immediately turned into a fear of the Queen Mother's prestige 'fleeing from the wind', and he did not dare to be hostile to it at all. Okay, those guys who don't know why suddenly held Gao Yuyao to the sky, look, others have worked hard to live and die without much gain, and then look at the Queen Mother, easily pacify Qingzhou, in this case, as soon as the soldiers come out, the recovery of the great rivers and mountains is not just around the corner.

However, does Gao Yuyao really want to fight?

Regardless of the purpose of the idea, almost everyone was waiting for Gao Yuyao's next move.

It's a pity that it's disappointing, strictly speaking, Gao Yuyao didn't even have a head-on battle with the Turkic side, after all, before she arrived, the Turks had already fled across the river.

The only time there was some friction was at a Yellow River port, where Gao Yuyao's vanguard army arrived first, intending to block the Turkic army crossing the river, to be precise, it should be to leave a few ships behind.

However, it was a step too late, the Turkic army had already passed more than half of it, and the extermination was limited, and there were only a handful of ships left.

Without a boat, how do you cross the river to the other side?

Obviously, Ashina Huqin also thought of this a long time ago, and when he was plundering Qingzhou, he saw that the ships, no matter how big or small, were all destroyed.

Faced with such a situation, what if Gao Yuyao led an army of one million? It's not a dry stare yet.

It was Gao Yuyao who was stationed in Licheng after failing to collect the ships, and ordered the craftsmen to hurry up and start building ships as soon as possible, and they were also building big ships.

At this time, the background of the Liang court was revealed, Zhou Shaoyu wanted to develop a naval army but could not, after several years, there were only a few, not to mention the small number, and the warships were also pitiful.

And the girder does indeed have a sailor, even if it has long been eroded, but there is a foundation, even if the people are not good, many warships are still there, even if there are none, there are enough shipbuilders to arch the command and dispatch. Many of the time-consuming shipbuilding materials can be used directly even though they have accumulated dust in the warehouse.

It's just that, considering that Gao Yuyao didn't have the necessary way to start the war in the past, no one is sure if she did it on purpose.

However, the situation is deadlocked again, the Great Liang army is eyeing it, and Gao Yuyao chooses to build ships slowly, and he is also not in a hurry to leave, as if he regards Licheng as a temporary capital, and all government affairs are handled here, for the sake of safety, and some Wenchen who are not so clear have fallen here to 'entrust important tasks'.

However, there is no boat to cross the river, so shipbuilding can be understood, but Gao Yuyao actually organized the army to launch military reclamation on the spot, which is a bit incomprehensible.

It is already July, and it is already too late to plant grain and grain, and even if we open up military reclamation, we will also plant some vegetables and the like, and this kind of posture of clearly fighting a protracted war will make people look in the clouds and do not know its original intention.

In August, Gao Yuyao still did not do too much, neither fighting the Turks nor the fire phoenix, as if he was leading troops to reclaim farmland. Not only the military reclamation, but also sent a lot of troops all the way to the east to open up wasteland into farmland, and then actually distributed it to the people for free, look at this look, it seems that it is preparing to restore the people's livelihood in Qingzhou as soon as possible?

However, what the hell did it happen to stop organizing large-scale fishing in Qingdao in the end?

If this goes on for a long time, aren't you afraid of abolishing the army?

After being on guard for so long, anyone will be a little impatient. Ashina didn't dare to move lightly, and Zhou Shaoyu wouldn't be stupid to take the initiative to fight, as for Huofeng, he was busy.

Now the fire phoenix, which only controls half of the state, is under great pressure, not to mention the population has skyrocketed. If it weren't for Huizhou's interception, where would it be able to afford it.

In addition, the contradiction of the 'equal sharing' system that was implemented at the beginning has become more and more prominent, and all kinds of drawbacks have begun to be revealed. In addition, the elite of each army was also selected to reorganize the new army for drills, making it clear that he wanted to get more real capable divisions.

In September, Xiao Ji's conquest of the Western Regions was finally completed, some countries were supported to rise, some countries were suppressed and defeated or even perished, no matter what, the entire Western Regions has basically surrendered to Xiao Ji's wife, bowing down at the same time, promising to hand over a certain percentage of the supply every year according to the amount of national strength, if there is a war, the countries also need to cooperate with the dispatch of troops.

Xiao Jiwen, who finally got rid of the hat of poverty, couldn't wait to start training with additional troops, and had no intention of attacking Huofeng.

Nonsense, so many people and troops are shrunk within half of Yuzhou, how can it be so easy to fight. And according to the situation at this time, it is the most advantageous existence for Xiao Jiwen.

Zhou Shaoyu of Bingzhou will not be her enemy at this time, and it is impossible for Yuzhou Huofeng to easily provoke a war again, and although Sun Shouren of Jingzhou is becoming more and more unclear, it is impossible for him to run to attack. As for the Turks and Gao Yuyao, they are so far apart, unless they can fly.

In other words, Xiao Jiwen can take advantage of this rare opportunity to develop with peace of mind and strengthen her own strength as much as possible.

From this point of view, the current Xiao Yuyao is quite a bit of Gao Yuyao's meaning at the beginning, you beat you, the more fierce the beating, the better. I hid behind and developed and accumulated strength with peace of mind, and finally came out to clean up the mess.

No way, this is also a geographical advantage.

For a while, the world seemed to be peaceful, after all, no one dared to take the initiative to fight.

But if there really isn't any fighting, then how is it possible. It's just that everyone's eyes are focused on the northern part of the Central Plains, but they ignore other places.

For example, there was a large-scale rebellion in Qianzhou, and the entire county of Qiannan fell, and it invaded other counties like a bamboo.

At the beginning, Li Qingzhao and others had already made a plan to encroach on Qianzhou, and now the days are not too short, and under the already certain forces, it is inevitable that something will happen.

In the final analysis, the so-called rebellious army is just a cover, and with the strength of King Qian, it is impossible to suppress the rebellion at all, so naturally, it becomes natural to ask for help from the Tanzhou side, which has the best relationship with him.

At that time, as soon as the Tanzhou army comes out, it will justifiably enter Qianzhou to 'suppress', so even if the territory in hand is not spit out, it is not much of a problem, who will let the strength of King Qianzhou not be able to hold it? Let's take care of it for you.

You see, how good. When the time comes, you only need to leave a piece of land as a buffer.

It's just that it's not planned and it's a matter of timing.

For Xiao Jiwen, who is just able to cultivate and recuperate and seek development, there is no more free existence than at this time. Hearing about the rebellion in Qianzhou, I greeted casually, among which the new army was the mainstay, and without saying a word, the main purpose was to bring the army into Guizhou, obviously mainly to train the new army.

No one will think that their territory is big, since there is no war elsewhere, it is natural to take the opportunity to take Qianzhou, not to mention that there is such a good reason, just help the imperial brother to suppress the chaos.

This move made Li Qingzhao and them quite annoyed, this is to pick fruits?

Although Chen Shuozhen, Liang Hongyu and Fang Jinzhi entered Guizhou, they were basically hidden behind the scenes, just for fear of being recognized. Only when Tanzhou sends troops will he stand in the foreground, and it is in the proper capacity of recruiting the rebel army. In this way, there is a reasonable explanation for the three girls leading the rebellious army.

It's just that Xiao Auntie's sudden intervention broke a series of plans.

In Tanzhou, a group of girls gathered here to hold a parliament.

"For today's plan, we should make a decision, don't wait for the King of Qian's request for help, send troops directly, carry out 'recruitment' as soon as possible, gather the army to consolidate the places that Qianzhou has occupied, and in the name of extermination, collect as many places as possible, especially some critical terrain intersections, which are particularly important." Xin Xianying proposed.

With the current relationship between his family and Xiao Jiwen, it is really unwise to become an enemy, and vice versa. It is not good for Tanzhou to directly confront Xiao Jiwen, and Xiao Jiwen is not good to take the initiative to attack Tanzhou.

In this case, it can only be the speed of the soldiers, and the fastest speed to occupy the territory, especially the most important point.

According to what was expected, a small piece of territory will eventually be left for King Qianwang as a buffer land, but now it seems obviously unlikely, the current relationship between the two parties is okay even if they are bordering, but sooner or later there will be a day of hostility, then whoever occupies a favorable position will be able to control the opportunity more, this point, must start the layout in advance.

After further detailed consultation, one instruction after another was quickly issued.

Qin Han led 20,000 troops to march to Qianzhou on the same day, and then Liang Hongyu took charge of the response, and Qin Han retreated to Xuefeng County to take charge of the troops here, and if the situation in Qianzhou changed, he immediately sent troops to support.

As for Chen Shuozhen and Fang Jinzhi, they didn't need to wait for the arrival of the army, they directly started the work of 'recruiting peace', and organized the army on the spot to directly start expanding their territory on the grounds of chaos. It is necessary to occupy the key points in the terrain that have been explored.

In general, Tanzhou still has a very advantage, because the so-called rebellion is simply what they are operating, it is all fake, and there is no need to fight even a war, all the way to 'Zhao'an' to the past.

And Xiao Jiwen doesn't know this, and if she is careful step by step, she will inevitably lose the opportunity.

As expected, Xiao Jiwen had just entered Qianzhou from the northwest, so there was no 'rebellion', and Xiao Ji's occupation speed was also fast, but it was a bit inappropriate to only occupy the city and not disrupt the Military Commission, not to mention that people also came with the purpose of training troops, considering that the troops under their command were basically new troops, Xiao Jiwen's march should not be careless, but in this way, the speed was naturally slow.

In Xiao Jiwen's eyes, the pieces of information can be described as dazzling.

First of all, I heard that Tanzhou had sent troops and was rushing to Qianzhou, Xiao Jiwen didn't care, and sneered, just seizing the opportunity to come over and grab the territory. As a result, the news was obtained that the two rebellious armies in Qiannan County accepted the recruitment of Tanzhou, led by Chen Shuozhen and Fang Jinzhi respectively, marching in different directions, all the way to recruit An, and all the way to expand their territory.

Later, the Tanzhou army entered Guizhou, and its generals were replaced by Liang Hongyu, but it was still the same set, recruiting all the way!

What's even more strange is that the three teams of men and horses are constantly recruiting, but they are like staking a race, and the boundary next to Chenghui and Tanzhou is not taken care of at all, and they only draw circles outside and establish a defense line to station troops.

Who is this to guard against?

Xiao Yuwen was quite annoyed, this practice was simply shameless! After a long time, she didn't occupy much territory, and she didn't even fight a battle!

Don't forget what the reason for her entry into Qianzhou is, she has never even seen the shadow of the rebel army, so how can the so-called aid stand firmly.

However, it doesn't matter if the matter has come to this point, the most important thing at the moment is that the capital city of Qianzhou cannot be lost, as the center of Qianzhou, it is also the largest city, and its geographical location is too important.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiaowen turned her horse's head and led the army straight to Tanzhou City.

It's just that what Xiao Auntie didn't expect was that King Qian, who didn't make the slightest move in the face of the chaos of the army, actually summoned all the soldiers and horses under his command to defend the city at this moment, and the four doors were closed, making it clear that he would not let Xiao Auntie enter!

It is true that King Qian's troops are pitifully small, at best only thousands, if he really wants to fight, Xiao Jiwen is confident that he can easily take it, but things can't be counted like this.

What about the good aid to the king of Qian?

It doesn't matter if you haven't fought a chaotic army, the only battle you fought was King Qian!? And then occupy other people's mansions and palaces?

This kind of thing is definitely not acceptable to Xiao Jiwen.

It's so cold, I feel like my mind is frozen, Kavinka's greatness, hey, expressing nostalgia for the heating for example.
