Chapter 312: The War Situation (5,000 Words) After all, those people in the Tang Dynasty are just small fights, and the largest one is only a thousand people, and they can't even fight a county seat, so it can't be a big deal at all, and having Li Jing and Wei Zheng as the only prestige is enough to deter all Xiaoxiao.
Now the biggest disaster is Hou Junji, although the early leak of the text caused him not to gather all his army, but he has more than 30,000 people in his hands, plus since the announcement of the uprising, with the emancipation of slaves as a propaganda slogan, attracting hundreds of thousands of natives to pay allegiance to him, and this number is still growing.
Hou Junji selected 80,000 young men from these hundreds of thousands of people, issued them weapons and armor, and incorporated them into his army, and Hou Junji became a great warlord with 110,000 soldiers in Nanyang.
Then he didn't know what kind of wind his brain was pumping, maybe the strength in his hands had increased greatly, and his heart was swollen, all in all, after he completed the reorganization of 110,000 people, he immediately couldn't wait to establish the country called Chu, and called himself the Great Chu Mingdao Holy Xuanwu Emperor, and officially raised the anti-flag, since then he and the Tang Dynasty have been fighting endlessly, becoming the most powerful anti-thief in the Tang Dynasty since the unification of the country.
This news was soon learned by Li Shimin, who was furious, and immediately ordered the young army to advance quickly and destroy Hou Yi as quickly as possible, but since the young army entered the South Seas, it was as if it had jumped into the quagmire, and every step forward was extremely difficult, and everywhere it passed, it would always be attacked by an inexplicable enemy, such an attack did not hurt the young army much, but it was very disgusting and difficult, and it was very difficult to solve.
Moreover, since Xue Rengui took over the Young Army, the transmission of military intelligence to Lingnan has been very slow, almost every three days on average, each time it is extremely brief, and not even a single message has been transmitted in the past half a month, so that the imperial court has speculated whether there is something wrong with the Young Army.
Fortunately, others don't trust Xue Rengui, but Li Zhen has quite confidence in him, if he fails so easily, then he is not Xue Rengui.
What's more, the Young Boys Army is not so easy to fail - even if they do, they will not be wiped out, as long as someone comes out alive, they will always spread the news.
Now they haven't even sent out a little bit of information, which proves one thing, that is, Xue Rengui is playing a big game of chess, a big game of chess.
It's just that there has been no news for so long, and Li Zhen is a little bottomless in his heart, today is just taking this opportunity to investigate well, anyway, he can't participate in the next naval battle, what's the point of just standing here and giving advice?
"In that case, then Zhen'er, you can go."
Li Shimin thought about it, this is indeed a very important thing, although he also knows that with the combat effectiveness of the Young Army, even if it fails in the end, the possibility of the entire army being annihilated is very small, but after all, it is such a long life, and Li Shimin is also a little relieved.
"Yes, the retainers are retired."
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's listen to the opinions of General Manager Liu Renliang."
"Yes, please wait, Your Majesty, and the minister will go and get a chart."
Since he is the head of the Lingnan Military Region, it is naturally not the turn of others to go on this naval expedition.
The chart was soon hung on the wall, and Liu Renliang pointed to the accident location of the Salen fleet with a baton: "Your Majesty, please see, this is the place where the Salen fleet met the enemy, they had a short exchange of fire with the enemy here, and after escaping, they encountered a storm, and then they were blown here......"
Liu Renliang began his tactical explanation, and Li Zhen also started his official office after returning to the Purple Pole Palace.
"Bring me all the information about the recent war."
The war is a whole, if it wasn't Xue Rengui's accident, Li Zhen would only look at the war in Nanyang, and he must also have some understanding of other battlefields, maybe he can find common ground from them and connect them in series - after all, the situation of the Six Edicts at this time is involved with the Nanyang and Tianzhu battlefields.
"Slave and maid, go now."
Xiao Anzi hurriedly went to prepare.
The dossier was quickly brought over......
"Why are there so many?"
Looking at the dossier in front of her, which was almost piled up into a small mountain, Li Zhen was a little scared in her heart, when would she go?
"Your Highness, this is already considered a few."
Xiao Anzi covered her mouth and chuckled: "When the slave maid went to the archive room just now, she was stunned, the files in it have filled the entire room, you don't even have too much of this, so Xiao Zhengzi, who manages the archives, is not going crazy?"
” "Count yourself right, you go down, this palace doesn't need you here."
Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly waved her hand.
"Yes, the slave and maid are gone."
Li Zhen looked at it for most of the day, and when he raised his head from the file, he found that the moon was already hanging high outside, and a candle with the thickness of his arm was lit in the hall, reflecting the entire Ziji Hall as if it were day, no wonder Li Zhen didn't realize that the sky was dark.
"Uh......
Ah~" stretched a lazy waist, Li Zhen picked up the tea that was already cold next to him and poured it suddenly, stimulated by the cold tea, finally made his spirit sober a little, and then looked at the mechanical clock hanging in the hall (designing clocks, this is Li Zhen's basic skills as a high-achieving student of the Mechanical Design Institute, but the clock processing technology is too precise, so that the output is very small, and can only produce large clocks, and small clocks can only stay on the design drawing), only to suddenly realize that the time has come to the sub-hour, that is, twelve o'clock at night.
"It's so late?"
Li Zhen suddenly looked at too many things, so that her mind was in a mess, and she hurriedly poured a few sips of herbal tea, which was a little more comfortable.
"Your Highness, have you finished reading?"
At this time, Xiao Anzi and Xiao Mozi, who were waiting outside, heard the movement in the hall and walked in: "Your Highness is hungry?"
Do you want the slave to prepare something to eat for you?
” "Well, I'm a little hungry, go ahead."
Li Zhen just had a little breakfast in the morning, and then he didn't eat all day, and he didn't feel anything at first, but as soon as Xiao Anzi said it, his stomach immediately screamed.
"Your Highness, wait a minute."
A plate of pastries and a pot of hot tea were quickly served, Li Zhen supported her forehead with one hand, stuffed pastries into her mouth with the other, and began to savor the information she got today......
First of all, it is the situation of the six edicts.
Later, Hou Junji's incident broke out, and Lingnan had no soldiers to send, only the young army could be used, so in order to solve the problem of Hou Junji as soon as possible, and also to express its trust in the six edicts, the imperial court transferred the young army from the battlefield of the planers, and gave the task of exterminating the remnants of the planners to the six edicts, and supported them with a considerable number of weapons, and also let them take on the task of guarding the six southwestern states instead of the Tang Dynasty.
However, what no one expected was that just after the young army left Lingnan, the six leaders of the six edicts were assassinated, and except for Meng Shezhao, the other leaders of the five edicts became the ghosts of the enemy's conspiracy.

This enemy is obviously intentional, because the heir to the new throne is obviously a hawk, and he doesn't have a good impression of Datang, let alone anything attached to Datang, plus Chengjianxi's bewitchment, where will he fulfill the orders of the previous leader?
In addition, the six states in the southwest and the hometown of the planers are all the armies of the six edicts - the hometown of the planing people is just a barren mountain and wild mountain where birds don't, and it basically has no effect except to make the territory bigger and better.
But the six states in the southwest are different, although this place was destroyed by the planners, but the infrastructure is still there, only need to be rebuilt on the foundation, and in less than three years, it will be able to regain its former prosperity, which is a piece of fat.
At this time, the six edicts are already preparing to rebel, where can there be a reason to let go of such a piece of fat meat that has reached the mouth?
The next thing has been said before, the Six Edicts rebelled and killed the officials sent by the Tang Dynasty to pacify, except for some who were lucky, ninety percent of them were brutally killed, and then the six southwestern states were unceremoniously occupied by the Six Edicts.
Among all the fortunate Tang people, Xiao Fuzi's status is the highest, his ability is also the most outstanding, and the strength in his hands should also be the greatest - when he was about to send the Six Edicts, Li Zhen thought about his safety and made it easier for him to act, so he gave him a list of spies and killers that he arranged in the six southwestern states and within the Six Edicts.
It was this list that played a big role at the last moment - Xiao Fuzi almost died when he followed Li Zhen since he was a child, and if it weren't for Meng Duluo's protection, he might really die in that assassination.
Although Xiaofuzi is a slave, since following Li Zhen, who hasn't given him three points of face, where has he ever suffered such a loss?
He already hated the traitor to the extreme in his heart, not to mention that he couldn't protect himself now, if he didn't do something, he really had to wait until the new leaders stabilized their power......
Xiaofuzi, as the closest person to the Tang Prince, isn't it the best object to sacrifice the flag?
Therefore, whether it is for revenge or self-preservation, Xiaofuzi must do something to prevent the new leaders from stabilizing people's hearts.
It was at this time that he remembered the list that Li Zhen had given him......
Then needless to say, Xiao Fuzi summoned the killers in the list, and took advantage of the internal chaos of the Six Edicts, when the prestige of the new leader was not enough, and he could not stabilize the interior, he sent people to assassinate the five people one by one.
Originally, Xiaofuzi just wanted to protect himself, but he inadvertently played the role of killing four birds with one stone.
First of all, he succeeded in revenge and saved his life, which is the first eagle; Secondly, he killed the five leaders of the hawks in the Six Edicts, successfully prevented the Six Edicts from betraying the Tang Dynasty, and did not throw himself into the arms of the enemies of the Tang Dynasty, which bought enough time for the Tang Dynasty's reaction.
The new five leaders were killed again, and the internal chaos of the Six Edicts was even worse, and with the secret support of Xiaofuzi, the newly established rulers were no longer so dead-eyed, and they were now neither falling to the Tang Dynasty nor to Chengjianxi, and were in a state of waiting to be sold.
And this is also the credit of Xiaofuzi, although he did not let the six edicts immediately fall to the Tang Dynasty, but after all, he gave the Tang Dynasty the opportunity to fight for them again, this is the second eagle; Third, his assassination behavior fiercely shocked those who wavered, such as Meng Duluo, he was frightened when the five leaders were assassinated at the beginning, although reason made him fall to the Tang Dynasty and saved Xiaofuzi, but he was also afraid of the enemy's means to death, so he was also a little vacillating these days, and he was not very polite to Xiaofuzi, but Xiaofuzi's retaliatory assassination poured a basin of cold water on his head, which made him sober up and rejoined the camp of the Tang Dynasty, which is the third eagle; In the end, Xiao Fuzi showed his ruthless and decisive means in this incident, showed his talents in front of others, and told others that he should not be regarded as a little eunuch, but as long as he is ruthless enough, the eunuch can also turn the tables.
It is conceivable that once he successfully returns to Li Zhen, not only Li Zhen, but also Li Shimin will reward him for his merits this time, which is the fourth eagle.
Not to mention the first and fourth eagles, Xiaofuzi's second and third eagles won a lot of time for the Tang Dynasty, not only destroying Chengjianxi's plan, but also helping a lot for the Tianzhu battlefield and Nanyang.
Speaking of the Tianzhu battlefield, the ability of Buluo Jishe II is indeed extraordinary, and it is worthy of the existence of the king of the ring of the sun, after he got the news of the rebellion of the Six Zhao Rebellion and the imminent rebellion of the Nanyang Hou Junji, he only verified it a little, and did not hesitate to send troops to attack the Tang army.
At this time, rumors were also rife in the Tang army camp, and various rumors were noisy: some said that the Tang army's retreat had been cut off, and they had been abandoned by the imperial court; There are also those who say that Hou Junji has successfully rebelled, and he has now unified Nanyang and become the real king of Nanyang Chu, and now he has led his troops to fight; What's more, they directly said that the emperor had been killed, the crown prince had successfully usurped the throne, and was stabilizing the domestic situation, and he couldn't take care of them anymore. said everything, at this critical time, it was a hard blow to the morale of the Tang Army.
I have to say that Cheng Jianxi's move is really ruthless, at this time, this batch of Tang troops has been in the Tianzhu battlefield for more than a year, and the news of the country can only be learned from the miscellaneous servants who transport supplies, but the supplies are sent back once a month, which also leads to a serious lack of their ability to obtain intelligence.
At this time, there was a heavy rainstorm in Nanyang, which washed away the road from Nanyang to Tianzhu (there are quantitative restrictions on sea transportation, and only continuous strategic materials can be transported, and bulk transportation still has to rely on the mainland), resulting in a delay of seven days before the supplies were delivered, resulting in the morale of the original soldiers was not high, and now there are such rumors, and the barracks suddenly exploded.
It was also at this time that Buluo Jishe II led people to kill him, directly causing chaos in the Tang military camp, it stands to reason that under such circumstances, the army should collapse, even if it does not collapse, at least it will suffer a defeat.
But there is a good saying, the road of heaven and earth is endless, just when the Tang army's resistance was becoming more and more difficult and was about to collapse, a cavalry suddenly appeared and pierced into it from the flank of the Southern Tianzhu coalition army.
Tianzhu does not produce horses in this place, and instead of cavalry, it is elephant cavalry, but Ben San also explained before that it is very difficult to train such things as cavalry, so even the most powerful Zhenla, a country is only formed a little.
Although Tianzhu's side is a little better, even if Buluo Jishe II gathers all the elephant cavalry of the Southern Tianzhu coalition army, the total does not exceed 5,000 heads.
It is precisely because the elephant cavalry is too precious, so every head is a treasure, so even if the elephant cavalry knows that if the elephant cavalry gathers together and charges in a group, it is definitely a god to block and kill the gods, and the Buddha to block and kill the Buddha, but it is precisely because the elephant cavalry is too precious, even the second king of the Bula Jisha is not so extravagant.
Besides, such a thing as an elephant cavalry, even if it is used alone, can sweep the world - you must know that the elephant in the elephant cavalry is heavily armored and invulnerable, and the weapons in the hands of the knight are even longer and more terrifying, and the enemy can't reach it at all, plus the elephant's huge physique......
It can be said that each end is equivalent to a moving heavy tank, which can completely rampage on the battlefield and be invincible.
Therefore, Nan Tianzhu has never seen a cluster charge of cavalry, so when this cavalry rushed into the enemy formation, it gave the Nan Tianzhu coalition army a heavy blow, and killed the flank of the coalition army.
The Tang army commanded this battle was Xue Wanche, who was also a veteran of the battlefield, and when he saw this scene, he immediately knew what he had to do, and almost without hesitation, he directly ordered the personal guards who had not yet fought with the enemy and had sufficient physical strength to rush in from this gap......
At this time, the soldiers who were already about to be unable to resist also saw the bravery of the cavalry and the personal guards, and their morale slowly rose again......
Needless to say, the Tang Army, which has restored its morale, has changed from sheep to tigers again, and its combat effectiveness is bursting, where will it be what the Nantianzhu Allied Army can deal with - in other words, if the combat effectiveness of the Nantianzhu Allied Army can surpass that of the Tang Army, they will not be beaten into what they are now.
For example, the situation on the battlefield of Zhu today is like this: under the attack of the Southern Tianzhu coalition army in the Tang Dynasty, the dividing line between the two sides has long been no longer the border between the Festival Dynasty and the Louqi, and now the territory of the Louqi has lost more than half, and the Naxna and Kangeda in the northeast of the Zalouqi have already fallen, and the Knaras in the east of the Shalouqi has also lost ninety percent of the land in this wave of attacks, leaving only a little land in the south to survive.
And the eastern part of Kranas and Kalinga also fell in this attack, but the remaining port city was blown up by the unwilling lonely escort warships of the transport fleet that landed here, and the navy has since had a territory of its own on the Tianzhu continent.
