Princess Yu Shurong left the Ding'an Earl's Mansion.
Fu Xiaoguan drank a few cups of tea alone.
He was indeed testing.
What he was testing was Emperor Xuan's attitude towards him.
Now it seems that Emperor Xuan’s attitude is not good, so the situation must be arranged in this way.
Whether economically or militarily, it cannot be changed, at least until he leaves the Yu Dynasty.
…
In the Wu Dynasty, there was Doufang Mountain, three hundred miles outside Guanyun City.
Bai Yulian received a handwritten letter from Fu Xiaoguan.
At this moment, he was sitting in the general's tent, looking at the letter carefully.
Wen Xiruo brought him a bowl of chicken soup and looked at the serious expression on Bai Yulian's handsome face. "The New Year is coming soon, and Grandpa said... he wants to see you."
Bai Yulian casually threw the letter into the furnace and smiled apologetically, "It's really not possible now. Can we do it next year?"
Wen Xiruo pouted and sat opposite Bai Yulian. "What's the matter? Are you afraid of meeting my family?"
"That's really not the case. It's that guy Fu Xiaoguan who gave the order."
Wen Xiruo was stunned. "Your Highness? What did he say?"
"He said...the Wu Dynasty's territory is too small."
Wen Xiruo opened her mouth in astonishment. "The Wu Dynasty's territory is not small. It's the largest among the four great kingdoms."
Bai Yulian smiled brightly, "Call ten division commanders to me."
"oh."
Wen Xiruo walked out, and the smile on Bai Yulian's face gradually faded. He came to a wall, pulled open the curtain, revealing a huge map.
His sight fell on the northeastern border of the Wu Dynasty, where there was a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles called Qiyun Mountain.
Qiyun Mountain is the boundary, and on the other side is Shanyinji, an important border town of Yi State, where 100,000 border troops of Yi State are stationed!
Instead of going through Qiyun Pass, we should cross Qiyun Mountain, surprise attack this border army, and destroy them...
Bai Yulian's gaze fell on a place farther away, which was the six southwestern provinces of Yi Country!
To disrupt the six southwestern provinces, the troops need to advance in the northwest direction, cross the entire Yi Kingdom, and reach Gaoque Pass on the northwest border of the Yi Kingdom... Eat up the 300,000 border troops of the Yi Kingdom stationed in the Blue Banner territory of the Barbarians... Then march to the Platinum Khan Palace of the Barbarians' Huangting... and then stand by!
The First Excalibur Army will assemble on the northern peak of Pingling Mountain on March 1st. The Second Excalibur Army must complete the strategic goal of capturing the Platinum Khan Palace before March 10th...
In other words, the 100,000-strong Second Divine Sword Army must defeat the Yi Kingdom within 50 days, and then use 20 days to reach the capital of the Huangdu Kingdom and occupy it... This journey is a full 6,300 miles!
With only sixty days to spare, without considering supplies, we had to plunder all the necessary supplies along the way...
The marching speed of the Second Excalibur Army is not a big problem. The problem lies in the duration of the battle, which must be resolved quickly!
These 100,000 soldiers of the Second Army are now at least at the level of second-rate masters. After six months of training, Bai Yulian is not worried about the combat effectiveness of this unit.
This is the most powerful army in the world! ——The word army was defined by Fu Xiaoguan, because in the letter Fu Xiaoguan wrote to him, he would also train a navy next year!
This army is much stronger than Xishan's First Army. They are more agile, have more accurate marksmanship, and can even fly into the sky... Bai Yulian was looking forward to the first battle of this army, but she didn't expect that this first battle would be so exaggerated.
So, what is the strategic intention of this guy Fu Xiaoguan?
…
…
At the same time, Su Mo's troops stationed deep in the Min Mountains also received orders from Fu Xiaoguan.
The 3rd Excalibur Brigade was officially renamed an independent division to distinguish it from the 1st Excalibur Army.
Now, under Fu Xiaoguan's propaganda, the number of people from the underworld who come to join the independent division far exceeds Fu Xiaoguan's expectations - more than 3,000 people have come, so that the independent division, which once had only more than 2,500 people, now has 6,000 people again, which is half more than before.
Under Su Mo's training and instruction, these people in the martial arts world became much more well-behaved than before and gradually began to behave like soldiers.
But the time is still short, and the aura of the underworld still exists in many of them.
But there is no time now.
Even for this gold mine, Fu Xiaoguan only allowed a thousand people to stay behind to guard it, and all the rest had to leave immediately.
According to Fu Xiaoguan's instructions, they went to the Taoist temple to assemble, and Fu Xiaoguan would come to the Taoist temple to meet them on the twelfth day of the first lunar month.
As for where they would go after the reunion, Fu Xiaoguan did not say, but Su Mo understood that this would definitely be a big operation.
There is only half a month left until the twelfth day of the first lunar month. It is so tight. Could it be that my junior brother has encountered big trouble?
Su Mo thought so and quickly made all the arrangements.
The 5,000-man Divine Sword Independent Division disappeared from Minshan that night without even saying hello to General Fei Anfei who was still stationed in Xirong.
…
…
In Guanyun City, Emperor Wu also received a letter from Fu Xiaoguan.
In this letter, Fu Xiaoguan did not tease him as he did in the past. Instead, the words written on the letter paper were quite solemn:
"father!
The Blood-Robed Guards have been reorganized into the Second Divine Sword Army. I have given orders to the Second Army Commander Bai Yulian to lead the troops into battle.
In this battle, the Second Army will break through the Yi Kingdom, but its strategic target is the Huang Kingdom.
The campaign is expected to take a year and end by the end of next year.
The armed forces of the barbarians will be completely destroyed, the Yu Dynasty will occupy almost the entire territory of the barbarians, and the Wu Dynasty will occupy half of the territory of the Yi Kingdom.
This is not about negotiation, this is about conquest!
Therefore, in late January of the next year, the Wu Dynasty had to send an army of more than 200,000 people out of Qiyun Pass. The main purpose was not to fight, but to wipe out the remaining armed forces of the Yi Kingdom and occupy cities along the way.
In addition, for the safety of your son, you must send another 100,000-man army into Jinguan City, march out of Qishan in early February, occupy the border city, and wait for Yu Chunqiu, the general of the southern border army of the Yu Dynasty, to come for negotiations.
There is no need to conflict with Yu Chunqiu, just delay it for a month!
All military orders have been issued. This is not a discussion with you, but is being carried out.
Please have the Tianji Pavilion pay close attention to the movements of the Yu Dynasty's border troops!"
Official Fu's fat face was filled with surprise. "Nangong Yiyu, Zhuo and his group... hurry to the imperial study!"
"This guy suddenly made such a big move, what is he going to do?"
Official Fu, dressed in a linen robe, paced back and forth anxiously in the imperial study. When Nangong Yiyu and Zhuo and his party hurriedly arrived, he handed the letter over directly.
"Look, this isn't a discussion, but you have to come up with an idea for me right now!"
Nangong Yiyu and Zhuo's group looked over and... Holy crap!
Your Highness, this is amazing!
Nangong Yiyu immediately went to the map on the wall and said after a moment, "Your Majesty, this is a great move!"
"I know it's a big deal, but what should we do now?"
"Just follow His Highness's arrangements!"
"You old man, are you sure he's not messing around?"
"What nonsense! Come and see..."
