I Am Going To Fight From West To East

"It feels a little bad!" Li Xiang looked at the desolate town all around. It should have been a town under the rule of the Ma Family, but now the town is empty. .

Zhouniao is uninhabited and desolate and bleak. It should be that the surrounding residents have been taken away by the Ma Family, otherwise they will not disappear, so it is completely complete.

Only the ruler of a place could do something like this, and the Ma Family responded very well.

Li Xiang led the cavalry forward, and the distance between the cavalry and the infantry phalanx was a hundred miles away.

The cavalry didn't carry much food, so I wanted to build a place to take it first, and get the food I needed from the place, but I didn't expect that the surrounding towns had already been taken over by the Ma Family. The army led away.

Now it is difficult for them to find a place where they can plunder food, because of the climate, the Liang Province is more spring than the northwest side.

Cultivation has already begun in the northwest. Of course, cultivation does not count as a change of season. With the help of farmers in the headquarters of Xiliang in the northwest, the civilians of Xiliang in the northwest can grow crops all year round.

So farming does not represent a change of seasons, but it can be seen that Liang Province is more difficult than the northwest.

"There is no one around the lord!" The scout commander ran back quickly. Subject's surroundings: "The villages we saw were all empty. The surrounding residents should have been taken away by the Ma Family, and the food and other things have also been carried away!"

"How long can the food we carry on us last?" Li Xiang has stored a large amount of food in his space because of the treasure. This is a lot for a person, but for the 15,000 he carries As far as cavalry is concerned, at most it is to let the army eat for a day.

"The food on our body can be eaten for about seven days!" The Xiliang cavalry will bring enough food before each battle, because they do not know when they will be able to return to the infantry phalanx again. .

So they can bring as much food as they can. Anyway, they can't finish it. When the time comes back to the infantry phalanx, they can also store it up again. Otherwise, they can't be on the battlefield for some reasons. Timely return to the infantry phalanx, resulting in a shortage of food for the army.

The consequences of this are good, so the more troublesome it is, the more troublesome it is, and the food you bring will not be wasted anyway.

"Seven days!" Li Xiang knew that this period represented how the soldiers of Xiliang would fight on the battlefield when they had enough to eat and drink.

If the food for these seven days is thrifty, they can live for more than ten days, but this is a fierce war, which is somewhat unreliable.

The fierce war has caused the soldiers to consume a lot of physical energy. There is not enough food to satisfy their hunger and replenish their energy. How can they defeat the enemy on the battlefield?

"If we rush back at full speed, how long will it take to get back to the infantry phalanx?"

The scout said: "If we rush back at full speed, it will only take about six If the road conditions are better, the speed may be faster!”

Liang Province Because the snow has just melted, the ground is full of mud, if the grassland is better.

"Enough!" Li Xiang reached out to the map drawn by the Xiliang scouts. On these three maps, he accurately drew small villages, towns and cities.

Also marked the distance from each other.

Li Xiang looked at the map. There are three or four small towns in front of them. After passing these towns, they will come to a city.

This is no longer Fufeng County, but the county occupied by the Han Family, which is the area in the northernmost region of Western Liang.

Li Xiang this time is not just taking Fufeng County, he wants to take down the entire Lanzhou, so it seems that the large army is preparing to attack Fufeng County from the north.

Actually, the real intention is to break the Han Family first and take down the county occupied by the Han Family.

Anding County!

The city in front can be said to be the gateway to Anding County occupied by the Han Family, a city neither too big nor too small, it is the city of Zhangye County and Anding County connection.

It was built on a plain with a big river flowing through it not far away.

However, because the ice on the big river had not melted at this time, ships could not reach the small city.

Han Family thought that Xiliang would destroy the Fufeng Ma Family first, and sent all the elite troops in their family to Fufeng County, leaving only a lot of second-line troops and not very long ones who had just been trained. Recruits are placed all around Anding County.

The reason why lips die and teeth are cold, they are very clear, the three families have ruled the land of Liang Province for many years, and the three parties are well-informed. Cool this past the Raptors.

They need to unite. If they don't unite, they will all be defeated one by one in Xiliang. Zhangye County is a good explanation.

Because there was no help from the other two families, the Ma Family army was losing ground in the face of the Shang Xiliang army, without much resistance, and finally lost Zhangye County.

At the same time, they also let Xiliang directly insert into the heart of Liang Province. The Xiliang army that has a firm foothold in Zhangye County can send troops to fight everywhere.

Because the territory of Zhangye County City is bordered by Anding County and Fufeng County, it is not far from Tianshui County, where the Pang Family is located, so Xiliang only needs to take down one of the counties, and they will never again be. There is no way to fight against Xiliang.

Up to now, the only thing before the stage is to fight with Xiliang, repel Xiliang, give them a chance to breathe, and transform the newly trained army into an elite force on the battlefield.

In the time gap after the Xiliang army was repelled, the important gates in various places were re-fortified.

They just need to repel the Xiliang army, and when the time comes the northern grassland tribe will help them after the real spring.

In recent years, the weather has been getting colder and colder, and it is not easy for those prairie people to live on the grassland north of Zhangye County City.

In the past, they would often go south to fight the autumn wind, plundering some unprotected herdsmen, farmers, and a few Great Families just turning a blind eye to this.

As long as those prairie tribes don't attack their family's territory or city, they can turn a blind eye on these things.

They don't want to really fight with the prairie people. They don't have that much energy and strength. Now their real focus is on the Central Plains.

It's a pity that Xiliang has come, and the arrival of the New Year has suppressed the three evil wolves of Liang Province.

The Ma Family was even broken by Xiliang, but now the three families are united, and their strength exceeds 3 million, not to mention Jiangxiliang drove out of Liang Province.

It's not difficult to hold on to what your grandparents left behind.

Xiliang's strength is very strong. Although their strength is not weak, the top-level martial power of Western Union can crush the alliance of the three of them.

None of their three families has a Great Grandmaster expert until now, and as far as we know from the data, there are at least five Great Grandmaster experts in Xiliang.

Xiliang Wang Li Xiang is also one.

The Three Great Families have at most four Grandmaster experts, and the gap between the top martial power of the two sides can be much larger than the gap between ordinary troops, as long as the top martial power is not balanced, or there is strength to contend .

There is no need to be afraid when it arrives on the battlefield, because the Great Grandmaster expert can be suppressed by the formation of the army, and they are afraid of the beheading action of the opponent.

A top Great Grandmaster expert to assassinate a person who is not yet Grandmaster level, that is with no difficulty, a simple thing.

It's basically like seeing an ant on the side of the road and killing it easily.

This is what they were afraid of. The Great Grandmaster expert on Asiliang saw that the situation on the main battlefield was not right, and shot and killed the high-level behind them.

If this happens, there is nothing they can do.

But now there is an opportunity in front of them, which may be because Xiliang is too high-profile, causing some Top Great Influences in the south to be dissatisfied with it.

So they sent out experts to help them, which is the reason why they dared to compete in Xiliang this time. There are quite a lot of Great Grandmaster experts who came to help them this time.

Not to mention that it can suppress the Great Grandmaster expert on the Xiliang side, but at least it will prevent the other party from killing their high-level, so that the ordinary troops of both sides can kill each other on the battlefield.

As long as the Great Grandmaster expert does not take action and the ordinary troops fight, the three families are sure to repel the Xiliang army.

In the small city connecting Anding County and Zhangye County, black smoke rose from every household just after noon at this time, because the cold weather had not yet passed, and the people in the city were still nesting in their own houses. in the small house.

Waiting for the beginning of spring in Liang Province, they will go out to find sources of income, some will go to the grasslands to graze, and some will cultivate in the farmland not far away, although the yield of planted food is very low , but barely managed to make ends meet.

There are others who serve the Han Family and do some coolies in the dock area of ​​Dahe, which is the source of life and income for most families in this small county.

There are only 5,000 soldiers stationed here. This is because there will be so many soldiers after Zhangye County City is occupied by Xiliang. Otherwise, there are at most 1,000 soldiers in this city. .

To raise so many troops, the daily consumption of food is astronomical, plus a month's salary and equipment for the soldiers.

Without an independent arsenal and a high source of income, there would be no army at all.

Three Great Families fought their hardest to recruit nearly one million troops each, nearly depleting their family's hundreds of years of savings.

Now for the sake of money, they are vigorously developing various minerals in their territory. If there are no minerals, they will work hard to develop animal husbandry.

The batches of cattle and sheep are slaughtered and turned into beef, mutton, and sheepskin and cowhide. These things can be hard currency.

It can be very popular at any time, especially in this era when the weather is getting colder and colder, beef and mutton are very easy to handle, just put it in the freezer and can be shipped to Imperial Capital.

The whole world knows how to make ice. The only thing that is a little wasteful is that the meat is frozen, which makes their taste much worse, and the price will be lower than the current beef and mutton. on some.

But the Three Great Families already don't care about that, they just want a lot of silver now.

So the beef and mutton sold by the Three Great Families were purchased in large quantities to the northwest.

What Li Xiang lacked most was all kinds of meat. When the beef and mutton sold by Great Family arrived in Shanshui City, most of them were purchased by Xiliang to the northwest.

Then these meats are digested by the soldiers. Most of the soldiers in the headquarters of Xiliang eat ominous beast meat, while those ordinary troops eat beef and mutton, only on some festivals. Only then will you get the ominous beast meat.

Eat and drink well, coupled with daily drills, the battle strength of Xiliang soldiers is much higher than that of other forces.

Even if the second-line troops are placed on these local forces, they will be used as first-line troops, but in the Xiliang army, they generally act as cannon fodder or bait on the battlefield.

If the enemy didn't really fight against the Xiliang troops, it would be easy to regard these troops as the main force of Xiliang.

dong dong dong !

The hooves of the war horse quickly trampled across the grass, and the speed was very fast, and it entered the city in a flash.

He went straight to the City Lord's Mansion with two yellow flags on his body, causing the soldiers who wanted to stop him to retreat to two places. There were basically not many people on the street, and naturally there was no one Stop the horse from running.

Rush to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, roll over from the warhorse, carry two yellow flags behind you, and rush straight into the City Lord's Mansion.

The gate guards outside City Lord's Mansion didn't dare to intercept the person in front of him at all. This was an urgent scout's intelligence, and no one dared to intercept it.

The soldiers who saw the scout all thought, is there a major problem ahead?

Only if there is a problem ahead, the scouts will hurry up with two yellow flags on their backs.

"What's the matter?"

The guard in the city is just in the hall. This time is when he is dealing with government affairs, because it is a war period, the guard of a city is At the same time, he also serves as the position of City Lord

"Reporting, reporting to the general, is a hundred miles away from my city." The scout cupped one fist in the other hand and bent over and said: "I found the Xiliang iron cavalry, the number of It's huge, and the flag the opponent is playing seems to be the flag of Li Xiang, the king of the West."

Swipe!

The guard who was holding a scroll of books suddenly released his hand, things fell to the ground.

"Are you sure it is the banner of Li Xiang, King of Xiliang?"

The scout affirmed: "The banner of King Li Xiang of Xiliang is made up of the head of a bloody wolf and the word Li. , this subordinate will never forget it.”

The scouts not only need to be extremely skilled, but also need to memorize the banners of all influence and the characters that those banners represent.

"Shouldn't we go south?" The guard was very flustered, but quickly calmed down: "Have you sent this news to Anding City?"

"It has been sent Go!"

"Okay!" The guard said to the scout: "You go down and rest now!"

"Come on, call the people above Hundred-Men Commander in the city immediately Get up!"
