Chapter 262 Life-saving straw
Emperor Fengwu looked at the ministers in the hall and said:
"I want to bring along civil servants as advisors and staff. I need one hundred officials. The capital will select civil servants for me at this time."
"Choose a logistics supply team. Everyone knows that food and fodder should be sent before troops move."
"Transfer the grain from Dafeng to the provincial county capital to Yunzhou, and make Yunzhou an important strategic location on the battlefield."
"The army assembled from Yunzhou and also set out from Yunzhou."
Hongxuan led the army in person, and the news spread throughout the entire Dafeng Kingdom.
This time, Hongxuan was going to conquer the Dali Kingdom, which was founded by him.
"At the beginning, don't let your subordinates become the kings and dominate one place! After a long time, it will be difficult to control them, just like now!" Hong Xuan said with emotion.
This time he led an army of half a million.
Moreover, these 500,000 troops were equipped with artillery and rifles.
Who can stop such a large army? Anyone who tries to stop it is no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
This was the time when Hongxuan led the largest number of troops.
In the past, the number of troops he led did not exceed 200,000, but this time, Hongxuan directly led an army of 500,000 to southern Xinjiang and occupied the land.
After a month, the army of Dafeng Kingdom sent all 500,000 troops to Yunzhou.
The entire Dafeng Kingdom knew that Emperor Fengwu was going to attack southern Xinjiang.
In the military tent, Hongxuan looked at the ten army commanders and deputy army commanders in the tent. These ten army commanders and deputy army commanders were all promoted by Hongxuan.
They are all new faces and they are all very young.
The ten army commanders are:
Sun Jingming, Bao Zishou, Song Jiansuo, Cheng Yebing, Zhang Shimin, Gu Jinqiang, Li Jiwen, Yuan Guangjun, Li Peiming, Wan Kaiyi.
The commander and the deputy commander commanded 100,000 troops, and the 500,000 troops were divided into five armies.
Emperor Fengwu looked at the new faces in the military tent. All the officers he had led before were assigned to various places to guard and retire.
These young officers in front of us are full of vigor and vitality.
These ten promoted army commanders and deputy army commanders were all newly promoted imperial examination scholars who were originally engaged in civilian work in the Hanlin Academy.
Wan Kaiyi said respectfully:
"Your Majesty! You are personally leading the attack on Southern Xinjiang this time. I am worried that if the enemy learns of this information, they will send a large number of assassins to kill Your Majesty!"
"I think we have arrived at Yunzhou now. It is only a thin line away from Southern Xinjiang. Your Majesty should stay in Yunzhou and command."
Hong Xuan looked at everyone and said:
"When I was the King of Zhenbei before I became the emperor, I had already suppressed the rebellion in Southern Xinjiang. And the person I am going to deal with this time, An Jingyi, is actually my subordinate."
"You can rest assured that I have enough ability to protect myself!"
These newly promoted army commanders and deputy army commanders were full of endless admiration for Hongxuan.
Sun Jingming said:
"Your Majesty! You are the emperor. If you go to the front line to fight, I am afraid that all the soldiers will be worried about your safety!"
Hongxuan waved his hand:
"It is impossible to hurt me on the battlefield. Let's not discuss this matter anymore."
"Just follow my instructions. You new recruits shouldn't worry about anything else."
For Hongxuan.
These newly promoted people who have never been on the battlefield have nothing but a lot of ideas in their heads.
Originally, Hong Xuan wanted to promote the veterans to the positions of his army commander and deputy army commander, but when he took over the army again, he wanted people who would absolutely obey his orders, so he promoted a new group of people to be his subordinates.
"Don't give orders recklessly on the battlefield! All actions must be carried out according to my orders."
The ten people responded respectfully.
The news that Dafeng's army was stationed in Yunzhou reached the Dali Kingdom.
The whole country of Dali was shocked.
The people of Dafeng were talking about it.
"The Emperor of Dafeng brought 500,000 troops to attack Dali. Our Dali Kingdom has only been established for a few years, how could it have encountered such a disaster?"
"Do you know? The emperor who attacked our Dali Kingdom was the former military god of the Dafeng Kingdom, the King of Zhenbei! The King of Zhenbei had never been defeated."
The news continued to spread among the people.
"You don't know! Our Dali Emperor is actually the King of Zhenbei, a subordinate of Emperor Fengwu."
The news spread like wildfire in Dali Kingdom.
In the Vientiane Imperial City of the Dali Kingdom.
Inside the hall, An Jingyi looked at the ministers below with anger and fear on his face.
"Why don't you say anything! Is there no one who can help me to solve this desperate situation?"
His five generals had originally prepared ambushes on various official roads, but when they heard that this time the Dafeng Kingdom had sent a full 500,000 troops to attack, you know.
The total military strength of the entire Dali Kingdom is only 80,000.
Not even a hundred thousand.
In other words, each of their Five Tiger Generals had less than 20,000 men under their command.
But you have to know that each army of the Dafeng Kingdom has 100,000 troops, and the total number of troops in the five armies is 500,000.
How can we fight like this? With such a huge disparity in strength, no general dares to engage in a head-on confrontation, let alone an ambush.
Moreover, this time, the army of Dafeng Kingdom was led by the former military god, King Zhenbei, and first came Emperor Fengwu, whose power no one dared to challenge.
"Waste! You are a bunch of waste! If Dali Kingdom is conquered, all of you will die."
But even so, no one dared to come forward.
The shadow of a person's reputation, who dares to fight Hongxuan head-on on the battlefield? Such a person has not been born yet.
"Tiger General! What Tiger General! If I catch these five bastards, I will definitely torture them to death!"
An Jingyi roared.
No one in the hall dared to step forward.
"Or we can surrender!" said an official.
"We can't possibly be a match for the Great Feng Kingdom's army! No one in this world can be a match for Emperor Fengwu."
Everyone in the hall fell into infinite fear. Not to mention the 500,000-strong army of the Dafeng Kingdom, just the identity of Zhenbei King Hongxuan as a military god was enough to make people feel endless fear.
And now that Hongxuan has become the emperor of Dafeng Kingdom, how could a small Dali be his opponent?
Just when everyone was in despair, a hearty laugh was heard in the hall.
"Hahaha! Who said that Emperor Fengwu Hongxuan is invincible? Who said that Hongxuan has no weaknesses?"
Everyone in the hall who heard the voice was startled.
I saw a figure appearing in the hall. This figure was wearing a robe. It was none other than the Taoist Qingxuan.
An Jingyi seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw while drowning, and this life-saving straw could just happen to save his life.
"Master! You finally showed up again. If you didn't come again, I would have wanted to abandon this imperial city and escape."
The pressure from Hongxuan is really too great.
There is no way not to be afraid.
