Chapter 1386
Fourth, the Eighth Legion suffered heavy blows, especially the Fourth Legion. Wenna encountered such a blow when he took over. Even Liang Chongxin was secretly worried about him. Cheng Dayou's performance was quite good. At least he captured Pomashan and successfully escaped from the Sikkim Landing Army Kazak. Although the main force returned in front of the Kuruk Fortress, the Eighth Legion's vitality was still preserved, and the Fourth Legion probably needed a good rest and supplement. At present, the First Legion, the Tiger Guard Legion and the newly formed Eleventh Legion. The Sixth Legion still needs to guard against Maqikhan. Only the First, Eighth, Eleventh and Tiger Guard Legion can be invested in the war in the southwest. Liang Chongxin did not know that Li Wufeng's original intention was to push the Tiger Guard Legion and the Eleventh Legion onto the Indian and German front.
Now, after winning the Huiningshan Victory and the Battle of Soktu, the coalition forces have recovered the Southern Security Realm. The morale is strong and the failure is not to be afraid. However, this battle has suddenly gathered the anti-Tang forces in this area, fully arousing their enthusiasm and fighting spirit to resist the Tang army. This is what Liang Chongxin is most worried about.
The Dark Night Rose, who has occupied the landlord's benefits, has long been silent, has indeed become famous, has been brave, has been fully prepared, and is good at disguising and hiding true purpose. Such a fierce attack hit the weak point of the Tang army in the Lao Shi's expedition. The combat effectiveness of the Peninsula Allied Army in this battle also fully proves that their army is no longer Wu Xia Amon. After more than two years of continuous battle with the Pasha people, their army has successfully matured and is completely worthy of the title of a strong brigade. After this war, Suleiman successfully established her prestige in this coalition, and then her command efficiency will be greatly improved. This was originally the biggest weakness of a coalition, but it was cleverly resolved by Suleiman using the prestige established by this battle, which made the empire's military operations in this area in the future.
The confidence of Western Samoa and Sikkim, who had been hesitating, has also increased significantly after this battle. This can be seen from their continuous increase in troops and even directly sending troops to the coastal area in the later period. Behind them are the shadows of the two giants in the southern part of the Central Continent, the Kingdom of the Sioran and the Kingdom of Jutland, which also needs to be considered.
The situation in the southwest war is probably unexpected. This time he went to Yuhang, his Majesty must listen to his views on the war in the southwest, and may even let himself be responsible for the entire southwest war like Cui Wenxiu. However, the southwest is not as rich as in the Indian and De'an. If he wants to be responsible for raising funds, he will be unable to bear it.
Dark Night Rose, Suleiman, Liang Chongxin said this name gently. This rose seems to be so thrilling. The arrogant Cheng Dayou and Wen Na of the Fourth Legion of Fuzhang were all hurt by this tricky rose. If you want to pick this rose, you will probably have to have a pair of iron hands.
However, Liang Chongxin did not agree to launch a counterattack in the southwest immediately. In his opinion, the empire should first stabilize the Indian-German war situation, which is the foundation of the imperial interests. The stability of the Indian-German situation can even be further included in the scope of imperial rule, which can provide the empire with a richer financial source. The opening of the Baltic Sea can also provide the empire with a convenient sea outlet, especially in the interests of the Central Continent, such as Northern Luzon, Tenggeri, and Indian-German areas, urgently need a smooth channel for commodity and material to promote the development of industry and commerce, which requires the empire to further strengthen its control over this area.
As for the southwest, the Allied Army has won two battles between Huining Mountain and Soktu, with its momentum, and Suleiman is not a weak person. He has successfully condensed the morale of the coalition forces with the momentum of great victory. Even if he takes over and lets the First Legion enter, with the approaching rainy season, the enemy has the advantage of time, place, people and three parties. It is not easy for him to open up the situation. It is better to delay the time temporarily, eliminate the opponent's spirit first, and wait for the opponent's vigorous momentum to slowly fade away. The rainy season is not conducive to launching an offensive. It is more suitable for the Tang army after the rainy season. Of course, this is just Liang Chongxin's personal opinion. He needs to wait until he reaches Yuhang to meet His Majesty the Emperor before he can decide.
This time, the intelligence department's major mistakes were probably needed to be responsible for this. The secret peace between the Peninsula Alliance and the Pasha people, the large-scale military mobilization of the Allied Army, and the secret change of the Allied Army commander. Such important intelligence did not seem to be able to predict in advance. Although the military also obtained intelligence from the intelligence department that the Allied Army might launch an attack from the Duchy of Seser, it seemed that it was a bit too late at that time, and it only helped the Fourth Legion avoid the overall annihilation, which was unacceptable. Liang Chongxin could imagine the wrath of His Majesty the Emperor and the troubles between Gu Quan and Gu Dengyun.
When Wufeng learned about the deterioration of the war in the southwest, he was listening enthusiastically to Zuo Shichang's introduction to the step-by-step construction strategy that the Great East Ocean Navy Fleet was preparing to adopt. Zuo Shichang proposed to first form an attack-type small and medium-sized fleet to attack the transportation lines between Japanese land and Kamchatka and Baodao. This not only achieved the purpose of training seamen and sailors, but also effectively curb the spread of Japanese forces. It could also use the time when the ships were not equipped in place for training and training, preparing for the large-scale expansion of the naval fleet when conditions were ripe. This won the unanimous recognition of Lei Cangpu and Wufeng.
The rapid recovery of Yuhang Military Port to its heyday also made Wufeng appreciate Zuo Shichang's deputy Sa Zhenhai. The core base of the Oriental Navy is crucial to a navy and a fleet. Only a solid base can support a powerful fleet. Although Wufeng is not proficient in naval military affairs, he still understands this.
The empire queen Angel was not the empire queen of Jiangnan. Before traveling, Angel discovered her menstrual period. The imperial physician's diagnosis was that His Majesty the Queen was pregnant, which made Wufeng and Angel ecstatic. Wufeng even had the idea of canceling the trip to Jiangnan. However, Angel, who was considering the overall situation, declined Wufeng's kindness and believed that Wufeng should still travel according to the established plan. After all, Wufeng had almost never entered the southeast. This trip had already informed the two counties of the East China Sea and Jiangnan in advance. If he had a slight mistake, it would also be a blow to the enthusiasm of local officials and gentry.
In the end, Wufeng agreed to An Qier's opinion and decided to continue traveling according to the established plan. He made adjustments to the attendants. The imperial concubine Anne, the imperial concubine Gu Mingxia, Su Jie and the Tuoji who were about to be enthroned into the palace. Tuoji's enthronement was requested by the Doer tribe from the northern Baiyin people. Seeing that Wufeng dominated the Eastern Continent with the power of dominating the world, both Tuolemy and Tuoluo realized that the equal relationship between the former allies could no longer exist. The current prosperity of the Tang Empire is no longer comparable to any country in the Eastern Continent. It can be inseparable from His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire. For the Doer tribe, it is an inexhaustible treasure for Baiyin people. In this case, Tuoji's own wishes can almost be ignored.
The huge dragon boat was anchored on the canal. The east side of the canal had been completely blocked. The South Canal extended from here until Quanzhou. Wufeng firmly rejected the suggestion that Jiangnan County would build a palace for him to be at the southeast. Although this was a spontaneous donation of money by the southeast merchants to build a palace, Wufeng still had a tough attitude to stop this behavior. He did not want to bear such a bad reputation without sitting in the position of emperor for a few days.
As the emperor of the empire, it seems that it is difficult to find a suitable resting place. Putuo Villa on the Zhoushan Islands outside the sea has always been the royal place for the Tanghe Royals. It was originally the best place to rest and recuperate, but now the imperial navy is not as strong as the humans, and the Japanese are rampant. No one dares to let His Majesty the Emperor stay at Putuo Villa. The sea is not as powerful as the land. If something really happens, sometimes the problem cannot be solved by many guards around him.
Wu Feng sat calmly behind the imperial case. The emergency letter from the imperial capital was sent to Yuhang as soon as possible and then passed to here. The dragon boat had become the first place for Wu Feng's office. Almost all the officials sitting around felt that His Majesty the Emperor who had just been browsing seemed to have some problems.
He took a deep breath and his good mood just now was completely messed up by this official letter. The somewhat chaotic mood did not calm down under the blowing of the river wind, but became even more confused. Wufeng did not expect such a big reversal in the southwest war. Soktu was lost and the battle of Huiningshan is still continuing. However, Wufeng could still keenly smell the situation of the battle of Huiningshan must be detrimental to his side. The alliance army, twice as much as his side, surrounded the retreating Fourth Legion's main force. This battle seemed to be worrying.
