Chapter 1303
After accepting the threat from Ling Tianfang and Bo Jinchen, Cui Wen Xiucai knew that he had really been a big fool. When a steady stream of troops from all sides were placed in this triangle area, Cui Wen Xiucai found it was very difficult to select an army that meets the needs of the new empire from the hundreds of thousands of remaining soldiers. Not to mention how to ensure the loyalty of these troops, it was already a huge task to select soldiers who met the standards from these low-morning armies.
During this period, Cui Wenxiu had to stay in this tedious and choreographed work. Fortunately, the Military Affairs Office also sent some officials to help screen, and Cui Wenxiu also selected some experienced officials from the former Situ Tai Army and the City Guard to help him. This work was successfully carried out. But even so, Cui Wenxiu had not had a day of peace in the past few months. In addition to secretly cursing the hatefulness of Ling Tianfang and Bo Jinchen, he was helpless. He was not a person who was lighter than destruction. Since he agreed, he had to do it well.
The appointment from the Imperial Privy Council finally freed Cui Wenxiu from this heavy work, but at this time the work was over. With the help of officers familiar with the situation, this work would be much more convenient to carry out. Cui Wenxiu was also a little sorry. There should be a considerable number of combat-capable troops in Situ Tai's army and the City Guards. If this group of troops can be reorganized and trained, this army would be fully qualified to be able to carry out foreign wars and pioneering. However, His Highness of the Qin King only required selection according to the organization of a legion, and the Military Affairs Office also explicitly stated that it was necessary to break up the organization and mixing group. This would certainly reduce the disadvantages of forming cliques, but it would inevitably slow down the recovery of combat effectiveness.
Cui Wenxiu was ecstatic for the establishment of the Central Continental Front Army, but the order to lift the commander of his third legion also made Cui Wenxiu feel a little disappointed. He originally thought he could command the Third Legion to participate in the war of hegemony in the Central Continent, but His Highness of Qin obviously did not want to get his wish. The combat effectiveness of the Jeroke Legion is quite acceptable, but the Seventh Legion and the Tenth Legion are the second-rate army of the New Empire Army. Hu Yanqiu is his old assistant, but the Seventh Legion has not experienced the truly harsh baptism of the war. Qiu Zhicheng's army of the Tenth Legion is even a miscellaneous army that has just been pieced together, and there is a just now
The Indian De'an Legion that had been formed soon, but it seemed that the number of this legion was not included in the Central Continental Front Army, which made Cui Wenxiu a little strange. Could it be that His Highness King Qin planned to use this legion as a garrison to be responsible for guarding the northern part of the Indian De'an region? Cui Wenxiu did not agree with this idea. He planned to have a good conversation with His Highness King Qin after he arrived at the imperial capital. Leaving a legion as a garrison would be too useless. His Highness King Qin had a good plan and was confident that he wanted to lead the army to practice troops in the Indian De'an area. He just thought about the Luzon army that was looking at the hawks and wolves, and Cui Wenxiu knew that this battle was not so easy.
Hu Yanqiu stood in the barracks with a pale face. It was meaningless to get angry at this time. Looking at the chief representative Baolin with a wry smile in front of him, Hu Yanqiu knew that the other party had done his best, but the Tiks had awakened too late. To move in now, it would only put his army in trouble. The Luzons would not stop because of the arrival of the Seventh Legion. For them who had been planning for a long time, this battle was already on the verge of the arrow and had to be fired.
"Brother Jiang, what are your opinions?" Although he had decided to reject the Tik people's request, Hu Yanqiu still hoped to listen to his deputy's opinions.
"I agree with the opinion of the Legion Commander. The intelligence department has confirmed that at least 200,000 Luzon troops gathered in the border area, plus the 100,000 troops in the area they occupied, and this number is still growing. Such a large number of troops cannot be stationed in the border area for too long. In other words, the war will break out within a week at the latest, and it will be a full-scale outbreak. With our current strength, if we want to resist the attack of the 300,000 Luzonian troops, especially when there is no obstacle to defend, it is too difficult. We should still defend the provinces of Lahore and Kada, temporarily take a defensive moment, and wait until the Delok Legion arrives before counterattacking."
Jiang Bin also agreed with Hu Yanqiu's opinion. Although it was a little conservative, it was a safe method. It is still difficult to say how much the Luzonian combat effectiveness has changed in recent years. However, it can be seen from the last double-double offensive and defensive battle that the Luzon army has made great progress under the training of Frederick and Kloof. If the war failure is caused by carelessness or conceit, it is the real sinner.
After breathing a long sigh, Hu Yanqiu felt extremely depressed. This matter really happened as soon as it came. I just heard that the Hansen Alliance army began to appear on a large scale in the Yakuan territory. The Luzons gathered wildly on the Tik border. If there was no connection between the two sides, Hu Yanqiu would not believe it at all. Fortunately, Ying Jianming's Indian and Dean army was barely formed, and the north would have to temporarily hand it over to Ying Jianming to shoulder the heavy responsibility. It is estimated that the Hansen Alliance army will not launch a large-scale attack on the Mish-controlled area for a while.
The Luzons here are probably not that simple. I am afraid that before the Derlock Legion felt that the Tik War would be in full swing. After all, they were all damn Tik people, who had already asked to help them with defense, but those guys were still hesitant and agreed until now that they were already in a bad mood. But it seems that it is too late. The entry at this time has not been enough time to complete the construction of the defense system. Such a hard resistance will only cause damage to the Seventh Legion and may even lead to the collapse of the entire southern Indian and German rule. Hu Yanqiu will never take such unreasonable risks.
"Now, in addition to strengthening the defense of the Lahore provinces and the Kada provinces, we can only pray that the Tiks can support more time. It is difficult to solve the problem with the little force in our hands. I wonder if His Highness Qin has made arrangements. If we don't pay enough attention, we are really afraid that we will only sacrifice our lives on this land." Hu Yanqiu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Now only one division of the Seventh Legion and the Andean Corps are retained on the long front of Northern Luzon. Although the Luzons did not deploy too much force on that front, if the Luzons really planned to start a full-scale war with the new empire, then choosing to break through from the Volcano Mansion or Vito Mansion is undoubtedly the best choice. Now Hu Yanqiu is taking this risk that he would bet a bet that the Luzons dare not start a full-scale war with the empire, and they firmly guarded the four divisions to the west. Once the Luzons really defeated the Tiks, the Lahore Province and the Kada Province will serve as the first line of defense, including the Pangzha tribe and the Hyderabad tribe in the north. This should be the only way before subsequent reinforcements follow up.
Just as Hu Yanqiu was busy dealing with the possible war, the Indian and German Legion in the north was also facing a difficult choice.
"Legislature Commander, although it is a bit risky to do this, we can at least gain a chance to win the favor of the Gujaratis. Even if we fail this adventure, we will withdraw from the Kunduz province, as long as our subsequent reinforcements catch up, we can use this as an excuse to officially enter Kunduz. If we give up this opportunity in vain, we will not only lose the trust of the Gujaratis, but whether it is the Hansen Alliance or the Luzons who occupied the place, we will also morally lose the reason to regain it. Although morality does not determine anything, at least it can give us an advantage in winning the support of the local people."
Seeing that the commander of the army was still browsing and staring at the map without saying anything, Zhao Jianfeng felt a little anxious. He knew that the other party might have some concerns. The newly established Imperial Privy Council had issued an urgent order to ensure the stability of the Mishi troops, the nominal western defense line of the central and northern Indian Kingdom, and prevent the invasion of the Hansen Alliance. Now, the legion must suddenly take the lead and enter the Kundus Province first. This has exceeded the requirements of the Imperial Privy Council. Once the Hansen Alliance really attacks here and fights with the Indian and German Legion, the responsibility for this war must be borne by the leader of the army who is arguing. Zhao Jianfeng can understand the other party's mood.
But this is an opportunity. At present, the Seventh Legion has taken the pressure to defend against another great enemy, the Luzons, which is the real main battlefield. The Luzons put forward a stance to win the control of the Tiks, and this will inevitably conflict with the empire that has penetrated into the eastern part of the Tiks. No one is in mind now. Although the Hansen Alliance in the north also controlled the Yakuan area and penetrated the surrounding areas, this has not yet become clear. However, if our side shrinks, two provinces like Kunduz and Rosse, which were originally vassals of the Tiks but are close to the Yakuans, are likely to follow the footsteps of the Yakuans and fall into the control of the Hansen Alliance. Zhao Jianfeng hopes to at least include the Kunduz province in his own control first, even if it is really taken away by the Hansen Alliance, it is worth it.
