Chapter 190
Chapter 190
Huo Qubing launched his best blitzkrieg, attacking small tribes of the barbarians one by one, leaving a certain amount of food for the remaining barbarians, the elderly, children, women and children, and a small amount of troops for defense, and then led his army away.
Huo Qubing has been active in this area, and he is not worried that someone will target these ordinary barbarians.
When Huo Qubing took action again, Wei Qing and Yuwen Chengdu also led their troops to the border between the barbarians and Liang State.
Due to weather restrictions and the fact that Liang State has not taken action against the northern border for the time being, the two did not take the lead in attacking. This action is considered a guarantee. As long as Liang State dares to move, the threat of Wei Qing and the others will erupt.
If Liang State does not move, when the time is right, Long Tian will also take action.
This is basically the case with the barbarians, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
As for Ran Min, there is no place for him to use his skills at the moment. With Huo Qubing and others in the front, the barbarians cannot come over.
However, Long Tian did not withdraw this army. Although there were not many troops in Guangning City, its position was not only the front line to defend against the barbarians, but also the key point to defend Jeju.
Although Jin Chengye, the King of Jingbian entrenched in Jeju, was Long Tian's father-in-law, nothing would have happened with the relationship with Jin Fenghuang.
However, now that the war has started in Xia State, Long Tian is also worried that Jin Chengye will have other ideas. Compared with the supreme position, this relationship between them is not impossible to give up.
Long Tian trusts Jin Fenghuang's siblings, but he is uncertain about the prince Jin Chengye.
For that position, it is normal to fight against each other, not to mention a marriage contract, so necessary precautions are still necessary.
With Ran Min in this key position, Long Tian can also feel more at ease.
Baijiang City is the front line facing Liang State. In order to strengthen the power here, Long Tian sent Han Xin to coordinate everything there.
There are also Zhang Liao, Li Cunxiao, Yuan Conghuan and others, and the troops are not small, enough to deal with the provocation of Liang State.
However, Liang State is still watching, and because of the weather, there will be no war here for the time being. Taking advantage of this peaceful time, Han Xin is not idle, using the war horses brought back from the barbarians to train cavalry.
In this world, the combat effectiveness of cavalry far exceeds that of infantry, so Han Xin will naturally not waste this rare time.
After Sun Wu took office in Zongzhou, he began to integrate the power of Zongzhou.
Because of Lucheng, Sun Wu did not have many troops, but he was not discouraged. On the one hand, he recruited soldiers, and on the other hand, he mobilized a group of trained and upgraded Zhenbei Army from the northern border, and joined Xu Huang, and the total force reached hundreds of thousands.
This force is also temporarily suppressed, waiting for the results of the war between Yunzhou and Zhangzhou to come out, and then Sun Wu will take action.
Long Tian did not want to mobilize troops in Xia Kingdom so soon, mainly because of the weather. At this time, Long Tian no longer cared about other people. As long as these people did not unite and pull up all the troops, Long Tian would be fearless.
However, Long Tian did not want to fight, but it did not mean that others would not fight.
In Qingzhou, Yue Fei and Lu Bu had already taken over most of Qingzhou. Originally, there was an imperial decree, and the cities in Qingzhou were relatively cooperative. In order to consolidate the results, Yue Fei and Lu Bu did not make much progress, which gave others a chance.
On this day, Yue Fei received intelligence that verified the intelligence brought by Shadow before.
Xingzhou and Leizhou sent troops almost at the same time to compete for the city of Qingzhou.
Xingzhou was occupied by the second prince.
Leizhou was the prince's territory.
No one expected that these two people would jump out to seize Long Tian's territory at the critical moment when Long Tian was far away in Zhenzhou to resist the invasion of the Jin Kingdom.
The two's actions were obviously not in line with morality.
You know, everything Long Tian did was for Xia State on the surface, but in disguise for his Xiao family, especially the prince, who was about to ascend the throne, and he should not jump out.
If Long Tian was not there, the Jin State would invade, and the prince would not have ascended the throne. At this time, he was not grateful, not to mention comforting Long Tian's emotions, but also stabbed him in the back. Can Long Tian tolerate him?
Yue Fei reported the situation to Long Tian immediately and received an accurate reply from Long Tian.
"No matter who it is, anyone who dares to stretch out his claws will be chopped off by this king."
With Long Tian's order, Yue Fei had no worries.
"General Lu Bu, the two of us are handling the affairs of Qingzhou. If something like this happens, we must not disappoint the prince."
"This time, the second prince and the crown prince took the initiative, so we naturally have to fight back. However, retaking Qingzhou is not my goal. I plan to take this opportunity to directly seize Xingzhou and Leizhou."
"But if we do this, I'm afraid we don't have enough troops. I plan to ask the prince for help and express ourWhat do you think? "
Yue Fei wanted to seize the opportunity to expand the victory. If the plan was achieved, no one could say anything, after all, Long Tian was not the first to act.
However, the results achieved were huge for Long Tian. With the two states in hand, Long Tian almost took over one-third of the territory of Xia.
"I have no objection, please let General Yue make the decision. "
Lv Bu is naturally brave, but in terms of military affairs, especially in terms of overall situation, he is far behind Yue Fei and others.
Long Tian, who was in Zhenzhou, soon received a report from Cao Zhengchun, relaying Yue Fei's request.
Long Tian thought to himself that Yue Fei's idea was indeed a good opportunity for the Northern Territory.
But although the Northern Territory now has a lot of troops, there are also many places to use them. It is not easy to mobilize an army that can take over a state.
Finally, Long Tian personally called Jia Xu and Xun Yu to explain Yue Fei's ideas and ask for their opinions, and at the same time understand how many soldiers are available in the Northern Territory now.
Several people agreed with Yue Fei's ideas and thought it was a rare opportunity for expansion.
But in terms of the army, the Northern Territory really has no mobile forces to mobilize.
Finally, Long Tian made a prompt decision to hand over the 200,000 troops guarding Zhenbei City to Xue Rengui to lead and attack Leizhou directly.
In this way, Zhenbei City was empty, but Long Tian was not very worried about the safety of Zhenbei City. After all, there were Zhenbei troops stationed around the northern border, and it was not so easy for the enemy to break into the northern border.
At this moment, Long Tian did not know that this decision almost brought disaster to the northern border. Fortunately, Long Tian had a system and escaped.
There was also a narrow contact point between Leizhou and the northern border. After receiving the order, Xue Rengui did not go to Qingzhou, but prepared to cross the border directly and attack Leizhou.
As for the lost cities in Qingzhou, they were handed over to Yue Fei and Lu Bu to deal with. Moreover, as long as Xue Rengui entered Leizhou and showed his strong strength, the prince would surely return to defend and dare not attack Qingzhou again.
