Chapter 144: What is the surname of the world?


If the post road after the start of the war is compared to the meridians of a dynasty, then the endless supply of soldiers, horses, grain and grass should be the blood of the empire.

At the moment, Beimang showed a huge tension that was enough to move the Central Plains.

The Empress of Beimang, the Taiping Ling of the Chess Sword Le Mansion and a fat man stood next to a post road, and they watched the busy transportation from north to south on the road together.

The three of them had different expressions, and the eyes of the old woman in a brand-new mink fur were full of pride, and it was under her soothing and proper governance that for more than ten years, the Central Plains Dynasty, which tended to be unified, did not have the slightest upper hand, and forced Liyang to smash half of the country's taxes into the eastern front, and finally led to the restoration of Western Chu in Guangling Road.

Her courtiers, not to mention the grassland eagle with the surname Yelu, still have a series of meritorious generals including Tuoba Bodhisattva, Dong Zhuo, Liu Qi, Huang Songpu, Murong Baoding, and Yang Yuanzan, and the stars are gathered and shining on the vast grassland.

Standing beside the empress, the old man in a green shirt who did not look amazing, this old man who had spent twenty years walking all over the Central Plains, had indifferent eyes.

And the fat man who kept holding his hands to ward off the cold was already huge, and he looked even more bloated after putting on his armor.

The Empress of Beimang retracted her gaze, turned her head to look at this fat man who was famous all over Xijing Street in her early years, and quipped: "Nanchu and Beidong, two fat men, you lost the battle of Chu Lushan back then, and you were extremely miserable, and now although that one has become the protector of Beiliang, you are the king of the Southern Courtyard, and you have won in terms of official position, do you have the confidence to find a place this time?"

Dong Zhuo, the king of the Southern Courtyard, who commanded the entire border war, did not smile in front of the old woman this time, rubbed his cheeks, and said softly: "If I have the same strength in my hands as Lu Qiu'er, it is still difficult to estimate, but the current situation is that I beat him for 300,000 with one million, and there is no reason to lose, but I always feel that it is a bit unsuccessful, and when I see Lu Qiu'er, he will definitely not be convinced." ” Empress Beimang smiled: "I am self-aware and don't know anything about warfare, so I have never had a bad habit of pointing fingers at the frontier warriors, but your deployment of troops this time is too unusual, so that I am so curious that I have traveled more than 800 miles to see you, even if Taiping Ling has taken the trouble to explain your intentions to me again and again on the road, but I still hope to hear what you say with my own ears, otherwise I will not be sure."

After Huang Songpu heard about your layout, he was so angry that his face turned pale, and he even did not hesitate to be cheeky to beg me to allow him to re-serve as the king of the Southern Courtyard, just to let your kid roll up and get out, so as not to squander the family wealth accumulated by the Southern Dynasty for 20 years in one go. ” Dong Zhuo clenched his fists, knocked on the nose of the frozen red rosacea, and said angrily: "Liuzhou, Youzhou and Liangzhou, which border the border with me, Liuzhou is the easiest to take, and Youzhou is the most consumable, but of course, the northern line of Liangzhou is the most difficult to gnaw." ” Speaking of this, Dong Zhuo paused, and the Empress of Beimang waited patiently, but the fat man was completely silent, and the old woman who didn't wait for the next thing after waiting for a long time couldn't help but laugh angrily: "It's over" Dong Zhuo continued: "It stands to reason that it is better to cut off one of its fingers than to hurt its ten fingers, and the main force will attack Liangzhou, drive straight down, and swagger all the way to the Liangwang Mansion in the north of Qingliang Mountain. ” The Empress of Beimang snorted, obviously she also thought so, in fact, this was the conclusion reached by Beimang's early painting of ashes at the beginning, the shriveled bait in Liuzhou did not make Beimang have any interest in biting the hook at all, and it didn't make much sense to hit Liuzhou except to lengthen the grain and grass supply line, if it was a stalemate in Liuzhou for too long, Beimang's gains outweighed the losses, after all, several elite iron cavalry on the border of Liangzhou had the terrifying strength of long-distance attacks.

Li Yishan single-handedly created a situation of more than 100,000 displaced people in Liuzhou, and his original intention was to increase the strategic breadth and thickness of Beiliang, where the depth of the territory has always been a soft underbelly.

Dong Zhuo put on a sad face and said: "This strategy is indeed the best policy, but after more than 10,000 light horsemen in Youzhou infiltrated Jizhou, the situation began to change, not to mention that Beiliang has been eye-catching with the Western Regions in the past few years, I am afraid that when the time comes, not only the north of Jizhou, but even the Western Regions will emerge a cavalry army to fight into the Southern Dynasties, blossoming left and right, and when the time comes, the hinterland of the Southern Dynasties will be strangled into a mess."

I have considered Xu Fengnian's temperament, he has never been afraid of scoundrels who are burning jade, and he would rather not want the Liangzhou base camp to defeat the Southern Dynasty, and he will do it.

Even if he beats the Beiliang Iron Cavalry, he will destroy the foundation of Beimang's twenty years of painstaking operation, which should be his plan. ” Dong Zhuo suddenly spat fiercely and cursed: "Liyang on the dog day, luck is really good, he left Xu Xiao alone, and he was on top of a madman Xu Fengnian, even if he was replaced by Chen Zhibao, Lao Tzu didn't have to be so entangled."

Dong Zhuo's eyes were fierce, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Since Xu Fengnian wants to play with his life, it's very simple, then I won't give him a chance to play tricks, Beimang's million-strong army is divided into three ways, and the three lines are pressed together, I want to see how he tosses and turns, anyway, we have a strength advantage on every front, Yan Wenluan said that 150,000 corpses can fill the mouth of the gourd, and I will use 300,000 to consume the 300,000 dragon elephant cavalry and those homeless people in Liuzhou, then I will use General Liu Jue's 200,000 to fight Liangzhou, if I use 500,000 is not enough, It's a big deal, I'll ask Your Majesty for another two or three hundred thousand."

Empress Beimang frowned and said: "In this way, although the Southern Dynasty has no worries, it is not too expensive."

Dong Zhuo shook his head and said: "The Liyang Imperial Court dares to use Xichu to train soldiers, we Beimang are a nation on horseback, living in pursuit of water and grass, and we have been born warriors since ancient times, why don't we dare to use Beiliang to train soldiers?"

The old woman stopped talking, Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I, Dong Zhuo, can promise you that even if I defeat Beiliang and defeat 500,000 or even 600,000 soldiers and horses, as long as I defeat Beiliang, I will definitely return the second million-strong army with both hands."

Taiping Ling finally spoke: "Your Majesty, after winning this battle, including Beiliang, as well as the Jizhou line, it will soon become the second Southern Dynasty."

All the civil officials of the Southern Dynasty were ready, and the place where the hooves of the iron horses passed was the beginning of the literati to put pen to paper.

This is the real backhand I prepared for Beimang.

As long as the Northern Mang army conquers those territories, I will be able to manage those places as soon as possible, so that the borders of the Northern Mang Dynasty will continue to move south with the war horses. ” Empress Beimang nodded, but quickly asked worriedly: "I don't doubt your ability, it's just that the Liyang Zhao Chamber will give us enough time to digest the results of the battle, and Gu Jiantang's eastern front will not take the opportunity to make trouble?"

Taiping Ling said calmly: "The world thinks that the restoration of Western Chu is a flash in the pan, but I firmly believe that Cao Changqing can see the head of Tai'an City. ” Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "The flow of Yuanbenxi is because they feel that after the end of the Liang Mang War, even if the entire northwest is given to us, there are still two pillars of Liang Gu Jiantang and Xishu Chen Zhibao to support the border, so they are happy to let Beiliang shed the last drop of blood, but if it is really as the Taiping Order said, then Gu Jiantang will have to leave the two Liao and return to Tai'an City, and then we can put a small number of troops in Beiliang to deal with Chen Zhibao, and take 10,000 steps back and say, when the depth we have is Beiliang and the Southern Dynasty, This is a great advantage that is difficult to ignore by manpower, which can naturally greatly reduce the losses caused by Chen Zhibao's use of troops, no matter how brilliant Chen Zhibao is, it is difficult to turn the tide in a short period of time, but we can point the troops to Tai'an City with Xi Chu, and take a look at the largest city in the world that is said to have a population of one million, and I, Dong Zhuo, must go and see how high the head of that city is. ” The old woman sighed with emotion: "After training the Beiliang Iron Cavalry in the world, and then climb to the head of Tai'an City, and then clean up the stubborn Gu Jiantang Chen Zhibao on the land of the Central Plains."

Dong Zhuo grinned.

Taiping Ling glanced at the king of the Southern Courtyard who was riding on the top of the Beimang Temple, and his eyes were complicated.

Empress Beimang raised her hand and patted the fat man's shoulder, and said indifferently: "As long as you can go that far, I am not the Liyang Zhao Dan, I can accommodate Dong Zhuo who has a fiefdom and a broken territory, south of the Guangling River, you can all have the surname Dong Zhen, and remember the word Dong Zhuo for a hundred years and a thousand years."

She looked to the south and laughed loudly: "What is the surname of the world in the future, I have no children under my knees anyway, so I don't care."

With a plop, Dong Zhuo fell to his knees.

The old woman kept looking south.

Old lame, the world could have been surnamed Xu.

In the early spring of the second year of Xiangfu, a Wu Beiliang crossbowman swam on the outer mouth of the gourd mouth in Youzhou, with the rising sun in the east, resisting the coldness brought by many inverted spring cold, and the morning dew on the iron armor gradually dried.

These elite scouts are all one person and two horses, and the mounts are all first-class war horses from the largest pastures in Beiliang.

Compared with the Liangzhou front, which is about to be touched, Youzhou, which has more strategic depth advantages, will make people feel more stable, because Liangmang and the two sides agree that Beimang wants to fight Youzhou, just to take Hulukou, you have to take more than 100,000 lives to fill it, or bulldoze it, and the Hulukou Wubao system carefully built by Xu Xiao with more than ten years can be said to have reached the ultimate defense in the history of the Central Plains War.

Endless black-armored iron horses poured into the mouth of the gourd like a torrent, and this scene was like the tide of the Guangling River. “”:
