The common people are concerned about the war situation in eastern Xinjiang, but they don't have the heart to think carefully about what has changed in the war situation. Naturally, they will not understand what role Fang Xie will play in this scattered chess game when he arrives in eastern Xinjiang. I don't know. Malan mountain has become the center of the storm.
In fact, Malan mountain doesn't go far from north to south. If it is a flat road, it won't take a day at most. But if we go over mountains and mountains, we can't get through it without three or four days. Besides, the mountain doesn't look majestic. How difficult is it to walk through it like opening up wasteland?
Therefore, the canyon has become an important traffic road.
East Xinjiang is separated from north and south. This is the throat.
There is no pass in the north of malanshan Canyon, and the Chengguan built in the South was built during the reign of Huizong in the Sui Dynasty. Once this place was the territory of the state of Chu.
North entrance of Canyon
Countless soldiers move back and forth like ants. They carry wood on their shoulders, or two people carry stones and pile up at the mouth of the canyon. These Mufu soldiers appeared one day after the black flag army. It is obvious that they have been waiting here for a long time.
Mu Guangling stood on the high slope and watched his soldiers busy piling up wood and stones.
He ordered to block the north exit of malanshan Canyon, which was not a small project. Malan mountain canyon is not very narrow, and it is not rugged. After the Sui Dynasty beat down this territory from the East Chu, it knew the importance of this place. Therefore, it took more than 100000 local migrant workers a year to clean up the canyon.
The narrowest part of the canyon can also be passed by thirty or forty people side by side.
"My Lord!"
The Scout sent by Wei'an to report knelt down on one knee and said: "The senior general sent me to report to you that the team of the black flag army has entered the SHANGUAN pass. In addition, the team of foreigners has arrived. This time, the foreigners are playing the flag. The picture on it is not black morning glory, but hyacinth, which should be mokesi's team. In front of us is the troops of the state of Chu with at least 200000 troops... The senior general asks the Duke of the state to tell us what to do next."
"Go back and tell him not to bump into foreigners. After foreigners pass by, block all roads. Both roads and paths are blocked. The battlefield that forces foreigners and black flag army is dozens of miles away from Malan mountain pass. The black flag army passes Chen Dingnan's place this time, no less than 100000 people and horses. Malan mountain pass can hold up to 10000 people, other people and horses It must be stationed in front of the mountain pass, and 30% of the black flag army are cavalry, which can not be used to guard the pass. Therefore, once this war is fought, there will be a battlefield for dozens of miles. "
"No matter what the two sides fight, don't meddle indiscriminately."
Mu Guangling said, "tell Wei An that his duty is to watch the war. Unless the black flag army wins the foreigners and retreats, he will immediately block the foreigners' retreat, otherwise, he doesn't have to send troops."
"Here"
The Scout promised and turned away.
Mu Guangling looked at his subordinates in the distance and basically blocked up the canyon. The accumulated stones and wood were almost half a person high, and should be completely sealed before dark. He knew that there were not many troops he could call now. After several years of war, he could call no more than 600000 troops.
One hundred thousand of them stayed in Mufu City, and one hundred thousand stayed in Shili gorge to contain Fenghuang platform. He transferred almost all the teams that can be called by the northern cities this time, but he didn't make up for 200000. Wei An had 150000 in his hand, which was no advantage over the two enemies he wanted to swallow.
So mu Guangling hates and is angry.
Obviously, he is the master of Dongjiang, but now he is suppressed by others.
Foreigners have more and more troops in eastern Xinjiang. At first, there are almost 400000 troops under shurens. In recent years, the troops under shurens have been reduced to about 250000 due to fighting with Mu house and fighting with other forces. However, the reinforcements of opru empire are coming from Eastern Chu, and MOX has dozens of soldiers Ten thousand people, as well as the foreigner named Proze, have a lot of troops.
At the beginning of the black flag army, only Nalan dingdong's 100000 people and horses, but fighting around, Mu's strength lost a lot, but the strength of the black flag army was almost not reduced! Fang Xie came with at least 700000 people of the black flag army, and Mu Guangling became the one who looked at other people's faces in eastern Xinjiang!
How could Mu Guangling, who was used to being the local emperor of eastern Xinjiang, accept this?
"Fang Xie, Lyman..."
Mu Guangling muttered to himself.
"You two can be regarded as outstanding people, but this East Xinjiang is my territory!"
His eyes were hot and excited.
After this war, neither of you has the ability to show off in front of me.
He was thinking.
What an exciting thing it is.
Lehmann, a hero from the other side of the ocean, ascended the throne at a young age, eradicated dissidents, and then developed national strength to fight everywhere. He supported a small country that was only a third rate on the other side of the ocean on his own, becoming the largest empire and the overlord of a continent!
Fang Xie, originally an unknown little man, relying on his bad luck, he recovered the southwest one after another, killed Nanyan, and then set the northwest to occupy Chang'an and deter the south of the Yangtze River. Now he seems to have half an ass sitting on the throne.
How can Mu Guangling not be excited when such two people are opponents?
......
......
Malan mountain pass
Chen Dingnan nodded after listening to his men's report on the path.
"Chen he, 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 the north and south. After hundreds of wars, large and small, most of the children of the Chen family group around me have been killed and injured... You have been promoted one after another in recent years, because you have courage, wisdom and ability. Today's war is the time to test us."
He stood up and looked solemn: "the Lord has handed over the most important thing to us. This war will affect the pattern of the whole eastern Xinjiang. We are in the middle of the vortex, and all the storms swing around us. If this war is won, I will protect you four princes and worshippers in front of the Lord!"
"General, just give orders!"
The four men boxed and said, "my subordinates, please obey the general's orders!"
"Good!"
Chen Dingnan said, "now, I'll tell you the Lord's arrangement carefully."
He went to the front of the map and pointed: "The North has been blocked by Mu Guangling's men and horses, which is expected. The prince has secretly left before. General Chen mooshan detoured to the north of Malan mountain. It is estimated that he will arrive at the north of Malan mountain in three or five days at the latest, but general Chen mooshan has to do just in case. This is just in case... If we lose, we can only retreat north. General Chen mooshan is responsible for attacking Mu Guangling's team, Kill a way for us. "
Chen Dingnan said, "I told you this first to tell you that the Lord didn't let us put all our eggs in one basket. He arranged a way back for us. But what I want to say is that we must put all our eggs in one basket!"
"Here!"
He pointed to: "The army led by San jinhou has been coming from the North day and night. After the war, he can go around behind the foreign army called shurens. Shurens wants to be a fisherman. He wouldn't expect our people to come from Shanhaiguan so soon. You can think how hard it is for San jinhou's team to go from Shanhaiguan to Malan mountain these days !”
"If we can't play well, I'm sorry they worked so hard to come to support."
Chending South Road: "Now there are troops from the south to the North arranged by the Lord, so let's just let go of the fight. If nothing happens, the first attack is the surrender of the state of Chu. These people are certainly unwilling to work for foreigners. No one is willing to be a slave after the country is broken... The Lord has arranged people to meet the generals of the state of Chu quietly. It's best if we can rebel against nature, but we have to do it Well prepared not to rebel. "
"Chu people are arrogant, but they are not good at war. So I will fight back at the beginning."
"Chen he, make a speech."
Chen Dingnan said: "If the army of the state of Chu leads the attack first, you two listen to my orders. When I call, you two each take 10000 cavalry to attack the two wings of the army of the state of Chu from the left and right. The army of the state of Chu has no experience in fighting cavalry, and they don't have firearms in their hands. Even if they have some, they don't worry. The most important thing is that the army of the state of Chu must be tired of fighting, so it won't be too difficult to fight back Difficult. "
"If the people of the state of Chu dare not oppose the foreigners, what we have to do is to let the people of the state of Chu lose every war in the next few days. The foreigners will be anxious in a few days, and then the foreign troops will attack directly."
He made a heavy point on the map: "Chen Xiao, Chen Zhong."
"My subordinates are here!"
The two young generals strode forward: "please give orders to the general."
"I'll give you two 10000 infantry each, and you'll lead your troops into the mountain tonight. You've explored the path. Although it's rugged and difficult to walk, you can go up to the mountain to hide your troops. You send someone to watch from a high place. When you see my command fireworks hitting the sky, you immediately lead your troops out of the mountain and go straight to the flank of the foreigner team."
"Here!"
The two men answered, their faces firm.
"Next, it depends on whether the people of Chu are willing to be slaves and try their best to attack, or whether they still have a conscience and don't work for foreigners..."
Chen Dingnan said, "go and prepare!"
"Here!"
Four young generals clasped their fists and turned away.
Chen Dingnan walked slowly to the door, holding the railing and looking out of SHANGUAN.
His 100000 troops, except those stationed in SHANGUAN, camped outside. If the enemy wants to attack, he must start from the outside camp. I don't know how fierce the war will be. How many good men outside who are far away from their hometown to fight with foreigners can return.
Chen Dingnan took a deep breath and seemed to ask vaguely. There was a trace of blood in the air.
His hand was tightly holding the railing, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were stretched.
"The LORD said that there should be no war in the world after I am 40 years old. I am not yet 30 years old... There are still more than ten years of war in the world. I hope there will be peace in a hundred years."
