Chapter 190: Seeking to live in death, six battles and six victories (Part 1)

When Jia Wudao and Qi Diaozi were very happy, Meng Hu's lazy voice suddenly came from behind the screen: "Is Batian back?"

A figure flashed, and Meng Hu's strong figure had appeared next to the screen.

Xiong Batian rushed forward two steps, clasped his fists and said, "I am in charge of the general."

Meng Hu waved his hand and said calmly: "So, the Zhuozhou Legion and the Shuozhou Legion have been mobilized by our army?"

"Yes."

Xiong Batian responded, "The clan members flew arrows to return. The Zhuozhou Legion in Fengcheng and the Shuozhou cavalry in Baishawan have all left their garrison and are rushing to the imperial capital at the most urgent speed."

The transmission of letters by flying arrows is a unique way of transmission for barbarians on the Great Wilderness. To put it bluntly, the horse-striking ranger in front of them found an abnormality in the enemy army and then fired arrows during the day and rockets at night, and then passed them to the distance one after another. The speed is not as fast as the delivery of letters by flying pigeons, but it is much faster than the express delivery of fast horses. The only drawback is that the information that can be conveyed is too single.

"Very good." Meng Hu nodded and said in a narrow voice, "Immediately send a message to Ma Sifeng, and make his cavalry division's light cavalry advance and head south to Fenglin Port."

Xiong Batian agreed and took the order.

Meng Hu suddenly looked up again and shouted sternly: "Zhang Xingba."

Amid the heavy footsteps, Zhang Xingba's tower-like figure rushed into the tent with a high fist and replied: "General!"

Meng Hu shouted sternly: "Tell us the order, the entire army will immediately withdraw from Xijing and set out eastward. After passing through the Fifty-li Pavilion, turn the way south and take the Fenglin Port Naval Village!"

In less than a cup of tea, Meng Hu's military order had spread throughout the army. The soldiers of the Tiger Legion, who had been preparing for a long time, immediately passed through the east gate of the east gate of the left and east gates of the right, drove out of Xijing in a mighty manner, and then rushed east again along the wide official road.

Meng Hu, accompanied by Qi Diaozi and Jia Wudao, slowly walked out of the east gate. As soon as he crossed the suspension bridge, Meng Hu turned around accidentally and saw that the city behind him was still strong and the arrow tower was still towering. The two big words "Xijing" on the lintel of the east gate were still as magnificent as it was. For no reason, Meng Hu's thick eyebrows were tightened.

As if they realized something, Qi Diaozi and Jia Wudao, who were riding horses behind Meng Hu, also held their mounts, and then turned around and looked at the two big words on the lintel of the east gate.

Meng Hu pondered for a moment, suddenly turned around and shouted to Zhang Xingba behind him: "Xingba, come with two spears!"

Zhang Xingba agreed and immediately ordered the Guards to bring two infantry spears and solemnly hand them to Meng Hu.

Meng Hu reached out to take the two spears and weighed them. He suddenly shouted and threw them away. He heard two crisp sounds of "ding" and "ding". The two heavy infantry spears had penetrated deeply into the Xijing city wall, and their location was exactly at the center of the two magnificent large characters "Xijing".

Qi Diaozi couldn't help but turn his head and exchanged glances with Jia Wudao. Of course they knew that Meng Hu's intention was to demonstrate to the Mingyue Empire, and he used a spear to penetrate the heart of the word "Xijing". The purpose was clearly to shoot the Tiger Legion, which captured the imperial capital of the Mingyue Empire twice.

Meng Hu tilted his head and admired it for a moment, then he clapped his hands with satisfaction, pulled his horse back and left.

White Sand Bay.

Temporary garrison of the Fourth Light Cavalry Division of the Northern Legion.

Ma Sifeng stood in the wilderness, looking towards the southwest. At this time, Ma Sifeng had long lost his usual calm expression. His usual spotless battle robe was soaked in blood at this time, and even a striking scar was left on Ma Sifeng's face.

This scar was left to Ma Sifeng by the brave general Yan Lingyun in Shuozhou army during a breakthrough.

After the cavalry division was trapped in Baisha Bay, Ma Sifeng organized six breakthroughs, and eventually returned in disgrace. Especially the last breakthrough was defeated, and even Ma Sifeng almost died. In the Northern Legion, Ma Sifeng was brave and rarely met his opponents, but this time, Ma Sifeng really met his opponent.

Seeing that the dry food carried by the northern soldiers were about to be eaten up, the strength of the cavalry division was sharply reduced to less than 10,000 cavalry and was about to suffer a disaster, the situation took a sharp turn. The Shuozhou cavalry, who had the upper hand, retreated from Baishawan overnight, and even left no soldiers!

At first, Ma Sifeng thought it was the enemy's trick, so he didn't dare to act rashly, but at noon, no enemy cavalry appeared. Ma Sifeng realized that the situation had changed and hurriedly sent a reconnaissance cavalry to conduct reconnaissance. In a blink of an eye, it was noon, and the news should have been sent back.

"Report..."

When Ma Sifeng was waiting impatiently, a long shrill howl suddenly sounded in the wilderness ahead. Then a horse galloped from afar like a wind swept away the broken clouds. The fast horse rushed to Ma Sifeng before slamming the reins. The mount suddenly stood up and kicked two times in a row to barely stop the rushing.

"General."

The cavalry on the horse hugged Ma Sifeng and gasped violently, "There is...there's news!"

Ma Sifeng said anxiously: "Tell me quickly!"

The cavalry gasped and said, "According to reliable information, the main force of the Tiger Legion is attacking Xijing. The Shuozhou Legion that besieged our army was ordered to rush to help, so he gave up the siege of our army!"

"oh?"

Ma Sifeng's eyes suddenly became extremely bright. He smacked his lips and laughed to the sky, "No wonder the Shuozhou cavalry suddenly withdrew the siege when they had the upper hand. It turned out that the general's main army was attacking Xijing fiercely. This was really unexpected. Hahaha, okay, so good, so happy..."

"General." A cavalry corps leader came forward and reported, "Do our army leave this Jedi quickly?"

"Hey." Ma Sifeng waved his hand disapprovingly and said loudly, "No hurry, let's talk when the general's military order arrives."

After saying this, Ma Sifeng said again: "I have told you a long time ago that General Meng Hu is a man who stands true to his word. He said that he would never go back on his word if he would not leave our northern soldiers. What about this? I am not wrong. Although General Meng Hu did not come to save us directly, he still thought of a way to save us from the trap!"

Several cavalry corps captains behind Ma Sifeng nodded and said yes.

The fact is true. If the main force of the Tiger Legion attacked Xijing and transferred Shuozhou cavalry, the remaining 9,000 remaining cavalry defeated generals of the Fourth Cavalry Division would have really been explained to this Baisha Bay.

As Ma Sifeng finished speaking, dozens of fast horses galloped in the wilderness in the southwest.

The sharp-eyed cavalry soldier narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "General, he is General Meng Hu's guard!"

"Oh?" Ma Sifeng said happily, "This must be the general's military order. Let's go and welcome it with me."

Effective in the northeast of Xijing.

Yan Shisan led more than 70,000 cavalry from the Shuozhou Legion to Xijing in a mighty manner. The sky was vast and the wilderness was vast. Looking far away, the sky was filled with the horse heads of Shuozhou cavalry, and the various flags floating in the wind. Only the loud neighing sounds of horses and the sound of thunderous iron hooves resounded throughout the sky.

Among the thousands of troops, Yan Shisi rode his horse to catch up with Yan Shisan and asked loudly: "Father, when the cavalry division of the Tiger Legion is about to be wiped out by our army, why did you suddenly give up?"

"What do you know!?"

Yan Shisan groaned and said coldly, "I just received the urgent letter from His Royal Highness King of Yue. The main ambush of the Tiger Legion Panlong Valley escaped the scouts of our army and Youzhou Army. It is likely to be attacking Xijing now. If my father does not lead the Shuozhou cavalry to go south quickly and rush to the imperial capital, the consequences will be unimaginable."

After the Tiger Legion captured Xijing again, most of the defenders in the city were annihilated, and only the brave general of Shuozhou Yan Beifei led a hundred cavalry to escape. However, the remaining cavalry did not know the exact location of the main force of the Shuozhou cavalry in Yan Shisan, so after leaving the city, he followed the main road eastward and rushed to Huxiao Pass.

Therefore, Qiu Yutang didn't know that Xijing had fallen at this time, and the governor of Shuozhou Yan Shisan and the Zhuozhou Legion in Fengcheng also didn't know that Xijing had been captured by the Tiger Legion again.

Yan Shisi said: "Then there is no need to go south, right? You can leave some of the troops behind to continue besieging the enemy's remaining cavalry."

"Damn."

Yan Shisan frowned and shouted, "Have you forgotten Situ Rui's previous lessons? The Tiger Legion is not an ordinary army. It is a tiger and wolf army. My Shuozhou Army may not be able to defeat it even if it concentrates all its strength. It will be divided into two places. Wouldn't it be even more unmatched? What if he defeats them one by one?"

Yan Shisi thought about it and felt that the old father was right, so he muttered twice and stopped talking.

After all, it is a pity to let go of the fat meat that is about to come to your mouth, but it is insignificant compared to the safety of the entire Shuozhou Legion, because annihilation of the Tiger Legion is not the matter of the Shuozhou Legion, and if the Shuozhou Legion is destroyed, the power of the Shuozhou Yan Family will be exhausted.

The second son Yan Chongtian on the other side suddenly asked, "Father, will the Tiger Legion attack the Emperor just bluff?"

"It's hard to say." Yan Shisan shook his head with a serious expression and replied, "Meng Hu is always unexpected and unpredictable. This time he suspects that the imperial capital may just be bluffing, maybe it's true."

Yan Shisan said this and said nothing, and his two sons were confused.

Yan Shisi scratched his head and said, "Father, there are now 20,000 troops stationed in the imperial capital, and there are third brothers and Youzhou's general Gongsun Jiao. Even if the Tiger Legion attacks with all its might, it may not be able to fight, right?"

Yan Shisan sighed and said, "I hope nothing will happen. If the Tiger Legion really wants to capture the imperial capital again, the Empire and the Imperial Army will be disgraced. Even our Yan family in Shuozhou is not glorious. After all, this time, your third brother led 10,000 cavalry to garrison the imperial capital. If something really happens, our Shuozhou army will not be able to escape the position of crime."

Fenglin Port.

Speaking of Fenglin Port, we must explain the navy of the Moon Empire.

Among the three major military powers in Middle-earth world, Glory, Mingyue and Galaxy have their own characteristics. The Galaxy Empire is the most famous Husband Empire, with the combat power of the light cavalry. The Glory Empire has the most exquisite equipment and the most elite infantry, and the Mingyue Empire has the most powerful navy. In addition, the Mingyue Empire has always been the fertile land for famous generals.

When it comes to the navy of the Mingyue Empire, we must mention the ghost pirates and several small countries alliances in the south of Middle-earth.

Ghost Pirates are a group of half-fishers and half-pirates wandering on the sea in the western part of the Central State of the Moon Empire. Their nests or base camps are located in the Ghost Islands far away from the west coast of Zhongzhou.

About thousands of years ago, a barbarian was unable to gain a foothold in the Great Wilderness due to tribal revenge. So he took advantage of the summer when the northern ocean eroded, and migrated west along the coastline on a raft, and then crossed the Devil's Corner in the northwest of Shuozhou, the current Mingyue Empire, and finally settled on the Ghost Islands.

Then, the barbarians changed from nomads to fishermen, and gradually turned into pirates over the long years.

The ghost pirates from the Ghost Islands are the main enemies of the Mingyue Empire's naval army. In addition to the ghost pirates, the Mingyue Empire's navy sometimes crosses the Storm Corner in the southwest of Youzhou to assist the infantry of Zhuozhou, Yingzhou or Youzhou to repel the sea harassment from several small-state alliances in the south of Middle-earth World.

The Middle Earth world is very large. The most abundant Tongtian River basin in the middle is divided by the two empires of Guanghui and Mingyue. The desolate wilderness in the north belongs to the Galaxy Empire and the ignorant barbarians. However, in the south of the Guanghui Empire and Mingyue Empire, there are still dozens of countries of all sizes.

The largest of these small countries are two countries.

One is the Pope State located at the middle of Zhuozhou in the southeast of the Mingyue Empire and the southwestern province of the Guanghui Empire. Its territory is approximately the same as that of a state of the Mingyue Empire or a province of the Guanghui Empire. There are no standing infantry, only two standing heavy knights, namely the Guanghui Knights and the Flame Knights.

The other is the Kingdom of Rising Sun, bordering the southern province of the Glorious Empire, whose territory is roughly the same as that of the Papal Kingdom.

There are dozens of small countries in the south of the Pope and the Rising Sun Kingdom. These small countries have formed two major alliances in order to protect themselves, namely the Southern Federation and the Eastern Federation. Whether it is the Southern Federation or the Eastern Federation, although there are as many as dozens of members, all the small countries have a total area of ​​territory that is slightly larger than a province of the Glorious Empire.

The army of these small countries is not worth mentioning, but because they are close to the seaside and have a developed shipbuilding industry, the navy of these two small countries is still very powerful. Because these small countries on land do not border the Mingyue Empire, they even dare to send a condemnation navy to harass the three states of Zhuo, Ying and You in the south of the Mingyue Empire.

And this is the origin of the Navy of the Mingyue Empire.

The existence of the Navy of the Mingyue Empire was not for the purpose of expanding foreign countries or invading other countries, but just to repel the invasion of ghost pirates and two small-state alliances in the south.

Fenglin Port, located at the intersection of Tongtian River and Baisha River, is the Navy Village of the Mingyue Empire!

Less than a hundred miles away from Fenglin Port is Fengcheng. Fengcheng is the capital of Fenglin County, Zhongzhou. When Meng Hu first attacked Xijing, the Zhuozhou Legion, which was ordered to go north to rescue, was captured before he could arrive. The Zhuozhou Legion temporarily stationed in Fengcheng, waiting for Qiu Yutang's follow-up military orders.

Not long ago, Qiu Yutang's military order finally arrived. The Tiger Legion once again attacked Xijing, and the Zhuozhou Legion rushed north to rescue!

At this time, only a small number of local guards were stationed in Fengcheng City, and the Fenglin Port Naval Village was almost completely empty, because Xiao Chengdong's naval army had almost all been dispatched to Qingzhou to clear the remnants of Mengyan's troops.
