Chapter 295
At the junction of Shunzhou and Yunzhou, there is a small village with remote location and inconvenient transportation.
The villagers here live a self-sufficient life. Although they are not rich, their days are peaceful. However, a sudden disaster broke this tranquility.
In the morning of this day, before the sun rose, the villagers got up as usual and prepared to start a new day of work.
But at this moment, a group of bandits in strange costumes appeared around the village.
These bandits were short, with hideous faces, holding sharp weapons, and walked towards the village aggressively.
"No, it's Japanese pirates! Everyone run away!" A villager shouted in horror.
It turned out that this group of bandits was the Japanese pirates from Jingguo.
Since Jingguo invaded Xiaguo, these bandits have been rampant in the southern region, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. The villagers have heard of their evil deeds and know that they are cruel and leave no one alive.
So when they saw the Japanese pirates appear, everyone had only one thought in their minds - run away!
Hearing the villagers' shouts, other villagers put down their farm work and fled in panic.
Some people didn't bother to pack up and rushed out of the village; some people picked up their children, pulled the elderly, and desperately looked for a safe hiding place.
Seeing this, the Japanese pirates laughed: "Haha, run? Where can you run to? Kill them! Don't spare a single one!"
They slashed at the unarmed villagers mercilessly, and the blood immediately dyed the land red.
The whole village fell into chaos and panic, the children were scared and cried, and the women screamed and fled everywhere. The Japanese pirates were not soft-hearted at all, whether they were old or children, they would not let them go.
In just a moment, the village was full of wailing and corpses. .
"Come here, burn this place for me."
The mission of the Japanese pirates is to create chaos and plunder supplies. In order to facilitate their actions and hide, the Japanese pirates never leave anyone alive once they start.
Soon, a group of Japanese pirates disappeared.
Not long after, a team of soldiers appeared here. Looking at the tragic scene, they wanted to tear the Japanese pirates apart.
"General, our army has just entered Shunzhou and has found several villages that have been slaughtered. These Jingguo people are really inhumane."
Bai Qi's army traveled for days and finally arrived in Shunzhou.
"Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, you five people each lead 100,000 troops, attack in a fan shape, and kill all the enemy troops you encounter. No one will be left alive. In this battle, we don't want prisoners."
Both for quick action and revenge, Bai Qi will not show mercy.
"General, General Chen Qingzhi has arrived."
At this time, someone came to report.
It turned out that Long Tian considered that Bai Qi's mobile forces were insufficient, so he transferred the white robe army stationed in Xingzhou to Yunzhou through Linzhou and placed them under Bai Qi's command.
Cavalry moves fast. Although the distance was longer, they arrived not long after Bai Qi.
"Please come in."
Bai Qi knew the importance of cavalry.
It's not that Bai Qi couldn't provide cavalry. It's still possible to get some horses, but compared with the established and large-scale cavalry corps, the combat effectiveness of these temporary cavalry is far behind.
"I have seen General Bai. By the order of the prince, the white robe army will obey General Bai's command."
Chen Qingzhi saluted when he saw Bai Qi. No matter from which aspect, Bai Qi is a person worthy of respect from all Chinese heroes.
"General Chen, you are too polite. Your arrival has solved the urgent problem."
"General Chen, the matter is urgent, so I won't be polite."
"You see, the Japanese pirates of Jingguo have infiltrated the entire Shunzhou, bringing great disaster to the people of Shunzhou, but this group of Japanese pirates are fast and good at hiding. I need to trouble General Chen for this matter."
Bai Qi didn't waste words. The five tiger generals were enough to deal with the head-on battle. Chen Qingzhi only had two tasks.
One was to send a small group of cavalry to find and kill the Japanese pirates.
The second was to deal with the 200,000 cavalry sent by Xiao Jingyi.
"General Bai, don't worry, I will arrange it immediately."
The top priority is to fight against the Japanese pirates. Only by killing them, these people will not dare to act recklessly, and the panic situation in Shunzhou can be temporarily stabilized.
As for killing Xiao Jingyi's cavalry, it is not urgent at the moment. The 200,000 troops are still cooperating with the Jingguo army to encircle and suppress the power of the King of Zhennan.
Because they were in the rear, Xiao Jingyi's men did not leave anyone to garrison after they captured Shunzhou City. They continued to attack after eliminating the garrison.
This also brought certain conveniences to Bai Qi's actions, and he successfully took over one city after another.
Bai Qi's actions had been known to the King of Zhennan.
At this critical moment, the North was able to send troops to assist, which was a great help to the King of Zhennan.
Although the South was not weak, facing the invasion of the entire Jingguo, Murong Batian was alsoDare not be negligent.
This inevitably caused the internal defense of several southern states to be insufficient, which also gave Xiao Jingyi an opportunity.
Hundreds of thousands of Japanese pirates pouring into the south have already caused Murong Batian a headache. Now Xiao Jingyi is interfering again, Shunzhou is likely to become a gap. Fortunately, Long Tian reacted quickly and sent Bai Qi to plug this hole.
However, Murong Batian knew very well that Long Tian would not be so kind. Once the Zhenbei Army entered Shunzhou, Shunzhou would fall into Long Tian's hands if he was unable to support it.
Even if he knew that this situation would definitely happen, Murong Batian could not change it.
Not to mention that he could not completely control the situation in the south, even Long Tian would not obey his orders.
"Father, the latest news is that the Zhenbei Army won in Zhenzhou, not only killing nearly two million Jin soldiers, but also capturing King Xiaoyao alive. Now the Zhenbei Army is rushing to the border to support Jin Huaicheng."
Murong Zijin said that he had no temper at all for this Northern King who was younger than himself.
"Long Tian is really a courageous guy. The internal war in Xia has not yet ended. An army of nearly two million has just escaped from the quagmire of war, but he did not withdraw it, but sent it to the border. This shows that Long Tian has enough confidence and strength to solve the internal problems of Xia."
"Now the prince has admitted his weakness and withdrawn the troops of Huaizhou and Linzhou, handing these two states over to Long Tian. The remaining Xiao Jingyi is impossible to be Long Tian's opponent. Except for us and Zhongzhou, Xia will fall into Long Tian's hands."
"The invasion of the bastards of Jingguo at this time just happened to give Long Tian the opportunity to intervene in the south. Even if we want to stop it, we can't do it."
"It seems that the future of Xia is already clear."
Murong Batian sighed.
Hidden their strength and bided their time, quietly developed for so many years, outlasted the old emperor, and caught up with the chaos in Xia. It was just the time to take advantage of the situation, but Long Tian suddenly appeared.
The North Territory acted too quickly. When others were not fully prepared, or did not have time to solve their own problems, the North Territory had already developed thoroughly.
Today, the northern border is fighting three kingdoms at the same time with its own strength, and the states in Xia Kingdom are constantly falling into Long Tian's hands. The situation has completely gotten out of control.
No matter how ambitious Murong Batian is, he has to admit that he has no chance.
Unless Murong Batian is willing to be a dog for Jingguo, there is still a chance to fight with Long Tian.
But this is not in line with Murong Batian's character. Even if he loses the opportunity to compete for the throne, he will not surrender to the enemy.
"Father, Bai Qi's troops of Zhenbei Army have entered Shunzhou. Should we express our attitude?"
Murong Zijin asked. Zhennan Palace can't have no attitude at all, wouldn't it make people look down on Zhennan Palace.
"Send someone to see Long Tian to express my attitude. How the Xia Kingdom is in chaos is our own business. Any external interfering forces are enemies of my Zhennan Palace."
Murong Batian is domineering. How to fight internally and who has the final say are all family affairs, but if there are foreign enemies involved, they must be united against the outside world.
