The sharp decline in the number of angoo central army is related to the disastrous defeat of Tiantu County in the first World War, and the large number of deserters is also one of the main reasons. Anguo's national strength is strong, but its military strength is weak, which has almost become the tradition of Anguo and the consensus of the world.
The reason for this is also related to the geographical location of Anguo. It is located in the Middle East of the whole Haotian Empire and borders the imperial capital Shangjing. It can be said that the southeast and northwest are not adjacent to foreign countries, and have never been threatened by foreign forces. The people's life is comfortable and peaceful. In addition, it is located in the center and extends in all directions, which is very suitable for business. After thousands of years of inheritance, an people had the personality of businessmen and were able to bear hardships. People were also willing to go out. They didn't care about traveling around all the year round, but at the same time, they were selfish, timid and weak. The concept of the state was weak. For all countries at that time, the cohesion of an people was the weakest.
In fact, this is also very easy to understand. There are many businessmen in Anguo, who are wandering abroad all year round, and the concept of home has been very light. If a person doesn't have a home in his heart, how can he talk about a country?
In Anguo, conscription was originally a very difficult thing, but now the war ahead is unfavorable. More than 200000 people were killed and injured all at once. The large-scale emergence of deserters has become a matter of course. Even the people who fled Anguo with their families are many, and not a few.
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. The invading Huan army has made Anguo panic. It's better how to deal with it. At this time, the Sichuan army also invaded Anguo from the south, which is very different from the assumption of Fengguo.
According to Fengguo's understanding of Sichuan, Sichuan will not start troops easily and will not do so until the last minute. However, this time, it is unconventional. When its allies are fully dominant and Fengguo has not participated in the war, it resolutely sent troops to invade the safe environment.
In fact, the state of Sichuan also has great differences on whether to send troops now. Most of the nobles in Sichuan were opposed to joining the war so early. First, the current situation is not completely clear. They rashly joined the war and exposed their intentions, which is detrimental to themselves; Second, and most importantly, these nobles believed that the state of Sichuan was not ready to fight a large-scale war. If it wanted to participate in the war, it should wait until after the autumn harvest and there was enough food and grass.
However, the young aristocrats of the state of Sichuan were of the same caliber and agreed that the state should join the war immediately.
Their reasons are also very sufficient. No matter whether the current situation is clear or not, even if the Huan army is at an overall disadvantage, can their own side still ignore it? Since we have to send troops sooner or later, why do we have to wait until the end? Second, we are short of food and grass now, but the wind and Angola are not much better. After the autumn harvest, our food and grass are sufficient. Don't we also accumulate the food and grass of the wind and Angola? Another point is that now Anguo is in danger of being beaten by the Huan army. It is a good time for your side to seize the spoils. If Anguo is finally defeated by the Huan family and your side has not sent a single soldier, how can you face to ask for Anguo's territory from Huan? I'm afraid they won't even give you a county or a city.
Among the young nobles who fought in the war, there were a large number of young talents in Sichuan, including two with the Marquis and more than ten with the title of earl.
They can be regarded as emerging forces in Sichuan. They are more ambitious, bloodthirsty and love Sichuan than those old nobles.
As for the power of the nobility, even the nobility of the imperial court didn't agree with Xiao chuanzhuang. In addition, they didn't want to use the power of the nobility to promote Xiao chuanzhuang. In addition, they didn't want to use the power of the nobility, After accepting the proposal of the young strongmen, he immediately sent troops to secure the country, formed a north-south attack with the Huan army, and exerted pressure on the imperial Town, the capital of the country.
If the combat effectiveness of Huan army is one, then the combat effectiveness of Sichuan army is equivalent to 100, while the combat effectiveness of Anguo is undoubtedly negative 100.
With the large-scale attack of the Sichuan army, the south of ankuo suddenly fell into the brink of collapse. A large number of ankuo troops fled without war, and their escape speed was faster than that of the people fleeing famine. It is not too much to describe it as "defeat without defeat, defeat thousands of miles".
The situation of the war took a sharp turn for the worse, and the original plan of Fengguo to sit and watch its change could not be carried out. As the urgent documents of Anguo spread to Tang Yin like snowflakes, he convened all the generals overnight to urgently discuss his own strategies and tactics.
The unconventional state of Sichuan surprised the generals of Fengguo, especially Nie Ze. At the beginning, he judged that the state of Sichuan would not participate in the war quickly, but in fact, it was completely contrary to his inference.
Fengjun camp, in the account of the Chinese army. Before Tang Yin arrived at this time, the generals of Fengguo knelt on both sides and talked with each other. They were not optimistic about the war in front of them.
At present, the number of troops invested by the Huan army has reached 400000. It is reported that the number of troops invaded by the state of Sichuan into the south of Angola is also up to 400000. Just after the war, the total number of troops of the two countries is close to one million. With so many enemy forces, the Angolan army can hardly count on it and can only rely on the strength of the wind country. The difficulty of this war can be imagined.
Even Jiang Fan, who usually doesn't like to talk at military meetings, couldn't help asking Xiao MuQing at this time: "General Xiao, how should our army fight with the Sichuan and Huanan armies now?"
Hearing his question, others stopped talking and focused on Xiao MuQing. To say who can be the most famous marshal in the country of wind, Xiao MuQing naturally does his duty. Others attach great importance to his opinions and analysis.
Xiao MuQing looked dignified and pondered for a long time, and then stretched out two fingers, say: "There are two things to do. First, ask the jade state for help and ask the jade state to send troops for reinforcements. Second, break into Chizhou county to solve the trapped danger of Baiqing army and take over the 200000 an army under the command of our country. Only by doing these two points can we temporarily stabilize the situation in the north of an state. As for the South... It depends on an state itself. We can't quench our thirst and can't reach it!"
After listening to Xiao MuQing's analysis, all the people present nodded their heads and felt that what he said was reasonable. Shangguanyuan let out a sneer and said, "how can Anguo hand over 200000 troops to our command? I'm afraid that 200000 people can't count on it."
"That's right!" Wu Ying said, "even if we really give the 200000 an army to us, an army is still an army. It can't help our army. If you don't say it, it will only drag down our army and become a burden."
"I don't know how an Ren fought this battle. The whole country is rich. Even the weapons used by the soldiers below are made of fine steel, and the armor is strong, exquisite and coveted. However, once on the battlefield, the whole army seems to be turned into wooden men, who are slaughtered and have no power to fight back. China has really suffered blood and mildew for eight lifetimes in its alliance with an Guo..." Shangguanyuan let the more he said, the more angry he became. In the end, he hammered down heavily and made a dull sound.
"It is precisely because of the weak combat power of Anguo that we want to form an alliance with it. That is the reason why it is bitter before sweet!" With the voice, Tang Yin strode in from outside the Chinese army tent, untied the rope buckle at his neck, threw off his cloak and threw it to a San behind him.
"King!" When Tang Yin arrived, they immediately shut up, straightened themselves up, knelt on the ground and bowed. After that, Yin Rong also came in, and the people salute again.
Tang Yin took Yin Rou and sat in the middle. Then he waved to ah Si, took a stack of thick documents, threw them at Shuai's case, and said in a deep voice with an expressionless face: "king an Yueze is now like an ant on a hot pot. Within a day, he has issued twelve books in a row. Let's talk about it. Next, whether our army will fight or not. If we fight, what kind of tactics."
"King, now we must go to war! Judging from the current war situation, if our army does not participate in the war, within three months, the imperial Town, the capital of Anguo, will have to be broken by the joint forces of Sichuan and Huan!" Xiao MuQing took the lead in saying.
"Three months? Mu Qing, you overestimate Anguo. If it can last for another month, my head can be taken down and given to you."
Shangguanyuan made people scoff at the fighting capacity of the an army. He felt that even if a group of mob bandits gathered together, the fighting capacity would not be worse than that of the an army.
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and said, "if our army doesn't participate in the war, Anguo will lose quickly..." paused and said: "since everyone thinks we should participate in the war, how should we fight?"
Wu Ying hurriedly said, "General Xiao has analyzed it just now. On the one hand, our army should rescue the jade country and let the jade country send troops for assistance. On the other hand, we should rescue the an army from Meicheng and take over it temporarily."
Tang Yin nodded as she listened. She felt that Xiao MuQing's opinion was quite good. It was necessary to take up the jade country. It was also his top priority to rescue the 200000 an army.
Without waiting for him to speak, Nie Ze, who had been silent, suddenly said, "our army has to divide troops and send an army into Tiantu County of Anguo to destroy the Huan army that captured there. Otherwise, if this Huan army is allowed to go all the way south and directly into the hinterland of Anguo, the situation in Anguo will be more chaotic."
"That makes sense." Tang Yin nodded his head and asked, "general Nie thinks how to divide the troops?"
Nie Ze said: "there are not many troops of the Huan army besieging Meicheng. The king only needs to send a plain army, which is enough to break the siege. The Huan army invading Tiantu county is the main force of the enemy. Weichen wants to lead a hundred war army and fight it to the death!"
His words may sound nothing to others, but Xiao MuQing felt harsh.
It is only a small group of Huanjun troops who besiege Meicheng. They want their plain army to fight, but the main force of the enemy needs a hundred war army to fight. It is not obvious that the plain army is not comparable to his hundred war army!
