Chapter 1160 I hope to exchange for a hundred years of peace
The people were all concerned about the battle situation in Dongjiang, but they did not have the heart to carefully think about the changes in the battle situation. They naturally would not understand what role would play in this scattered chess game when they understood Dongjiang. They would not know that Malan Mountain has become the center of the storm.
In fact, Malan Mountain is not far from north to south. If it is a flat road, it will take at most one day to complete the distance. But if you cross the mountains and ridges, you will not be able to pass it without three or four days. And even if the mountain does not look majestic, how difficult is it to walk over like a landbreak?
So the canyon has become a major transportation route.
The eastern border is separated from north to south, and this place is the throat.
There is no pass to the north of Malan Mountain Canyon, and the Chengguan built to the south was built during the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Great Sui Dynasty. This place once was the territory of the Chu State.
Canyon North Exit
Countless soldiers and ants were walking back and forth like moving houses, carrying wood on their shoulders or two people carrying stones, constantly piled up towards the entrance of the canyon. These Mufu soldiers appeared a day after the Black Flag Army's troops passed by, and they had obviously been waiting here for a long time.
Mu Guangling stood on the high slope and watched the soldiers busy piled up woods and stones.
He ordered the exit to block the north of Malanshan Canyon, which was not a small project. Malanshan Canyon was not very narrow and not rugged. After the Great Sui Dynasty built this territory from Dongchu, he knew the importance of this place, so he recruited more than 100,000 local migrant workers and took a year to clear the canyon.
The narrowest part of the canyon can also pass by thirty or forty people side by side.
"Dude!"
The scout sent by Wei An to report the message knelt down on one knee and said, "The General sent me to report to you that the Black Flag Army's team has entered Shanguan. In addition, the foreigners' team has also arrived. The foreigners who came this time used the banner to mark the black morning glory, but hyacinth, and it should be Mox's team. The one who pioneered the way ahead was the surrendered troops of the Chu State of at least 200,000 troops... The General asked the Duke's orders to tell him what to do next."
"You go back and tell him not to confront foreigners head-on. After the foreigners pass by, block all roads. Whether it is a big road or a small road, all are blocked. The battlefield that forces foreigners and the Black Flag Army is dozens of miles near Malanshan Pass. The Black Flag Army went to Chen Dingnan this time, with no less than 100,000 people. Malanshan Pass can accommodate up to 10,000 people, and other people must be stationed in front of Shanguan. Moreover, 30% of the Black Flag Army are cavalry, which cannot be used to guard the pass. So once this battle starts, there will be a battlefield within a radius of dozens of miles."
"No matter what the two sides fight, don't interfere randomly."
Mu Guangling ordered: "Tell Wei An that his duty is to watch the battle. Unless the Black Flag Army defeats the foreigners and retreats, he will immediately block the foreigners' retreat, otherwise he will not have to send troops."
"Here"
The scout agreed and turned around and left.
Mu Guangling looked at his subordinates in the distance and had basically blocked the canyon. The piles of stones and wood were about half a person tall, and they should be completely blocked before dark. He knew that there were not many troops in his hand now. After several years of war, he could still call no more than 600,000.
Among them, 100,000 remained in Mufu City, and 100,000 stayed at Shilixia to restrain the Phoenix Platform. This time, he transferred almost all the teams that Zhucheng in the north could call, but he did not raise 200,000. Wei An had 150,000 in his hands, which was no advantage over him alone compared to the two enemies he wanted to swallow in one bite.
So Mu Guangling hated and angry.
He is obviously the master of Dongjiang, but now he is suppressed by others.
The foreigners have more and more troops in the eastern border. At first, Shurence's troops were about 400,000. In recent years, fighting with the Mu Mansion, and fighting with other forces, Shurence's troops have been reduced to about 250,000. However, reinforcements from the Oplu Empire came from Dongchu continuously, with hundreds of thousands of people in Mox's hands, and the foreigner named Proze, with a large number of troops under his command.
At the beginning of the Black Flag Army, there were only 100,000 troops in Nalan Dingdong. However, after fighting, the strength of the Mu Mansion suffered a huge loss, but the strength of the Black Flag Army was almost not reduced! Fang Jie came with the Black Flag Army's team of at least 700,000 troops. In Dongjiang, Mu Guangling became the one who looked at others' faces!
How could Mu Guangling, who was used to being the emperor of the Eastern Territory, accept this?
"Fang Jie, Lehman..."
Mu Guangling murmured to himself.
"You two are considered unparalleled talents, but this Dongjiang is my territory!"
His eyes were full of fiery and excitement.
After this battle, neither of you was able to show off your power in front of me.
He thought in his heart.
What an exciting thing this is.
Lehman, a great man from the other side of the ocean. He ascended the throne at a young age, eliminated dissidents, and then developed national strength to fight everywhere, supporting a small country that was just a third-rate on the other side of the ocean with his own strength, becoming the largest empire and the overlord of a continent!
Fang Jie was originally a little unknown little man. With his unpredictable luck, he regained the southwest one after another, destroyed the Nanyan, then settled the northwest, occupied Chang'an, and intimidated the south of the Yangtze River. Now he had half of his butt sitting on the throne.
How could Mu Guangling not be excited when he is an opponent like this?
......
......
Malanshan Pass
After hearing that his subordinates reported the matter on the path, Chen Dingnan nodded.
"Chen He, Chen Ci, Chen Xiao, Chen Zhong."
He looked at the four young generals standing in front of him: "When I left home, you followed me. Over the years, I have led you to fight south and north, and have experienced hundreds of battles of all sizes. Most of the children of the Chen Family Spear Formation around me have been killed or injured... I have promoted you one after another in recent years, because you all have the courage, wisdom and ability. Today's battle is the time to test us."
He stood up and looked solemn: "The prince has handed over the most important matter to us. This battle will definitely affect the entire eastern border. We are in the middle of the vortex, and all the wind and waves are centered on us. If this battle is won, I will protect you four marquises and generals in front of the prince!"
"The General just asks the order!"
The four men clasped their fists and said, "I will obey the orders of the general!"
"good!"
Chen Dingnan said: "Now, I will tell you about the prince's arrangements in detail."
He walked to the front of the map and pointed: "The north has been blocked by Mu Guangling's men. This is expected. The prince had secretly dropped General Chen Dunshan and took a detour. He thought that he would arrive at the north of Malan Mountain in three or five days at the latest, but General Chen Dunshan had to do just in case. This is... If it is defeated, we can only retreat north. General Chen Dunshan is responsible for attacking Mu Guangling's team and killing us a bloody road."
Chen Dingnan said: "I will tell you this first, because I want to tell you that the prince is not letting us take a gamble. He has arranged a way out for us. But what I want to say is that we must show our gamble morale!"
"here!"
He pointed: "The army led by Sanjin Hou has arrived from the north day and night. After the war begins, it can go around the back of the foreign army named Shuluns. Shuluns wants to be a fisherman. He would not have thought that our people could come from Shanhaiguan so quickly. You can think about how hard it is for Sanjin Hou's team to travel from Shanhaiguan to Malan Mountain these days!"
"If we can't fight well, I'm sorry for them trying their best to come and provide support."
Chen Dingnan said: "Now, from south to north, there are troops arranged by the prince as the backing, so we just let go of the battle. If nothing unexpected happens, the first attack is the surrendered troops of the Chu State. These people are definitely unwilling to do things for foreigners. No one is willing to be slaves after the country is destroyed... The prince has arranged for people to quietly meet the generals of the Chu ** team. It is best if we can instigate the rebellion, but we must be prepared to not instigate the rebellion."
"The people of Chu are arrogant but not good at fighting. So I will fight back at the beginning."
"Chen He, Chen Ci."
Chen Dingnan ordered: "If the Chu army takes the lead in attacking, you two will obey my orders. When I give the call, each of you will lead 10,000 cavalry to attack the two wings of the Chu team from left to right. The Chu team has no experience in fighting with the cavalry, and they do not have firearms in their hands, so it is not worth worrying even if there are some. The most important thing is that the Chu team must be war-weary, so it will not be too difficult to counterattack."
"If the Chu people dare not rebel against foreigners, what we need to do is to let the Chu people defeat each battle in the next few days. The foreigners will be anxious if they can't wait for a few days, and then the foreigners' army will attack directly."
He was a little heavy on the map: "Chen Xiao, Chen Zhong."
"I'm here!"
The two young generals strode forward: "Please give orders to the general."
"I will give you two 10,000 infantry each, and you will lead your troops into the mountain tonight. You have already explored that path. Although it is rugged and difficult to walk, you can go up the mountain to hide troops. You send people to look up from the high place. When you see my command fireworks hit the sky, you will immediately lead your troops out of the mountains and rush to the flanks of the foreigners."
"Here!"
The two responded with a firm expression.
"Next, it depends on whether the Chu people are willing to be slaves and attack with all their might, or whether they still have the conscience to not do things for foreigners..."
Chen Dingnan ordered: "Go and prepare!"
"Here!"
Four young generals clasped their fists and turned and quit.
Chen Dingnan walked slowly to the door, holding the railing in his hand and looking out of the mountain pass.
His subordinates had 100,000 troops, except those who entered Shanguan. If the enemy wanted to attack, they had to start fighting from the camp outside. I don’t know how tragic this battle would be. How many of the good men outside who were far away from their hometowns and fought to the death with foreigners could go back.
Chen Dingnan took a deep breath and seemed to ask a faint smell of blood in the air.
His hands were tightly holding the railing, and the veins on the back of his hands became tense.
Chapter completed!
