Chapter 268 The situation is changing too fast

"Two commanders, judging from Lord Qin's meaning, the fast sign of the empire will definitely not be lost in the northwest. As for the future, as the situation changes, the surname Qin or Zhao in the northwest is still the surname Zhao. Hehe, then we must have the final say. ⊙ At that time, Lord Qin wants to make the surname Qin in the northwest not, and I am afraid the people will not agree. Do you think so?" Linghu Yi's words were even more unscrupulous and had a distorted intention.

"Yes, with the yellow robe in it, I can't help but Lord Qin himself or not."

As soon as Chen Deming said this, if someone from the court was here, he would know that the yellow robe was an allusion of the previous dynasty, it would be a rebellion.

"Okay, let's not talk about these things. Of course, there are adults who will worry about these things. Our adults' minds are not comparable to those of our materials. As soldiers, it is better to execute orders and fight your own battles with peace of mind."

Shangguan Yonglun waved his hand to stop his subordinates from making a fuss. After all, although he agreed with the two of them, it seemed a bit out of place to say these words at this time.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone quietly on the hills. Below the hills was a scene of busy people shouting and neighing horses. Tents were erected one by one, and the logistics troops had even started to make fires and cook. Qin Mu's eyes crossed the shallow hills of bushes under the hills. There was the Loulan land area. At this time, there was no need to cover up or disguise. The fool could see what it meant for these tens of thousands of fully armed troops to reach the borders of the two countries.

But at this time, Loulan knew that it could not react. Their army was completely restrained by the wars in the south and west. He did not expect or have any energy to care about what would happen in the remote northeast.

A thousand miles of land may change hands in these short days or dozens of days. Qin Mu suppressed the surging mood in his heart. This fertile land is the beginning of his own hegemony, with wind and clouds rising and falling. Heroes gathering, the vast land, who will ups and downs? Looking at the sky in the south, maybe Kutuzov is thinking about the same problem.

The sky has slowly darkened, and only the red glow in the sky indicates that it will be a good weather in the next few days, and the morning glow will not go out. The sunset is a good time to march and fight. Qin Mu silently looked at the sky and sent a lot of divine moments, then walked back to the tent from the door of the big tent. There were already candlelight hanging in the tent. Zhuge Fang was sitting next to the big tent, reading the information sent carefully, and corresponding to the map from time to time.

Although the day's march did not make Qin Mu feel tired, the bumps also made Qin Mu's body ache. He sat on the big chair and Zhuge put it in at this time.

"Sir, according to the information summary of all parties, the current situation is still as we expected, but the development speed is too fast, which is somewhat unexpected." Zhuge Fang paused when he said this.

"oh?"

Qin Mu waved his hand, leaned his back comfortably on the back of the chair, and signaled Zhuge to continue.

"The three divisions of the Third Legion, led by Commander Shangguan, marched very quickly. Now they are estimated to have reached the border with Baica. They will soon go south and should arrive at the scheduled location in four days. No enemy situation has been discovered yet. Our intelligence agencies have contacted the Indians and Germans in that area. They have expressed their willingness to fully support us, plus the Han people, and the representatives of the Prich and Coopers also said that they will support us as long as we can control the overall situation, so there should be no big problem."

His eyes fell deeply on the map on the table and asked, "How is the situation in the south?"

"As we expected, the Pasha people had crossed the Maputra River and defeated the 100,000 troops of the Loulan people. Now the main forces of the Pasha people are still crossing the river one after another, and the forces gathered on the north bank of the Maputra River are still increasing rapidly. According to my estimate, the army of the Loulan people in the southern region is no longer enough to pose a threat to the Pasha people. It is sooner or later that the entire area south of the Salwen River north of the Maputra River, including the West City, falls within." Zhuge Fang's tone was very affirmative.

"Oh? Why are you so sure?" Qin Mu was so excited. He couldn't tell whether he agreed with Zhuge Fang's opinion.

"After the Loulan people suffered a crushing defeat in Feishui, the southern region had less than 80,000 troops. Even though there were Jiya West City and several nearby fortresses to defend, the strength was very different. And the most important thing was that their morale was low and they could not resist the attack of the Pasha people. On the contrary, the Pasha people have completely controlled the Maputra River and their logistics had no worries."

"There are nearly 200,000 troops gathered on the north bank of the river, and it is still increasing, and its morale is also very strong. Although the battle situation in the west of Loulan is still stable, it cannot draw any strength to support the southern line, and there is actually no more power in other areas. What's more, they have to retain considerable power in the central part." Zhuge Fang's words are reasonable and well-founded.

"In your opinion, the battle in Loulan is a foregone conclusion?"

"Not necessarily, but it is already quite dangerous now. If you are not careful, you may be devastated in front of you."

Zhuge Fang's face was very heavy. Obviously, he did not expect the situation to develop so quickly, and even his side had reached a point where he had lost control before he was ready.

"Well, it seems that I underestimated the strength of the Pasha people. I didn't expect that they could beat the Loulan people in just a few days without any resistance. Kutuzov and Kutuzov are indeed famous and I underestimate the enemy too much."

Qin Mu's face also became heavy. This was the first time that he had expected a mistake since the northwest. This mistake of prediction would greatly affect his subsequent strategy. Once the Pasha people surrounded and annihilated the Loulan army in the western city of Jiya, it would be just around the corner to cross the Salwen River and head north. Once he crossed the Salwen River, the entire Loulan had no natural barrier to support him. The collapse of the Western Front was a matter of time. Even if he could take this opportunity to occupy the central and northern Loulan, facing the dual pressure of the Pasha people and the Cominians, he might have to withdraw from the fat meat that he had to go out of his mouth.

Qin Muman, with a gloomy face, sat on the chair silently, feeling very depressed. He blamed himself for believing in Yuli's reputation too much. He did not expect that such a big setback would occur in just a few days, and the 150,000 troops would be defeated in a mess.

After a long time, Qin Mu cheered up and asked, "How is the situation on the Western Front?"

"The western front is still stable. Kruff uses a turtle-retreat defense, relying on the Great Songlin City, Eagle-billed Pass and Xibe Fort to form a horn with each other. He has repelled the Komini attacks several times. However, once the Pasha people crossed the Salwin River, they will form a front-and-back attack with the Komini people. The situation will inevitably reverse, and the consequences..." Zhuge Fang's voice was also a little low.

"Yes, the key point is not the Western Front now. Once the Southern Front collapses, it is inevitable that the Western Front will be lost. The Southern Front and the Western Front are both lost, and it is only a matter of time before Loulan's demise." After a gentle breath, Qin Mu leaned on the back of the chair with a little tiredness.

Seeing that his master was also a little depressed, Zhuge Fangqiang was in a strong spirit, "With the advice of the Lord, can we go south quickly before the Pasha and the Cominians fully control the situation, and occupy Vito and Manlong first, and control the central and northern Loulan?"

Qin Mu smiled wryly and shook his head, "Not to mention whether it is feasible. Even if we take these two cities, once the Pasha people and the Cominians solve the problems in the central and southern regions and go north, we will face an army of 400,000 or even more. It can be said that there is no chance of winning, and it will even cause disaster to the northwest. This method is absolutely not feasible."

Qin Mu smiled self-deprecatingly again, "If I could give me another 100,000 troops, maybe I could still try it out, but unfortunately there is no if in reality. It seems that we are wasting our efforts this time."
