"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 970
Pingyang Province, the base camp of the rebels.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good news!"
In the Royal Garden on the outskirts of the city, the rebel Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan excitedly broke into a clean and tidy garden.
"Lu Aiqing, what makes you so happy?"
The rebel emperor Long Tian, ??who was relaxing in the garden, was also full of doubts when he saw Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan trotting over.
Since the loss of their two major pools, bad news has continued one after another.
Compared with the huge territory they occupied before, facing the joint attack of the imperial court and the prairie wolf cavalry, they have lost more than 30 mansions now.
Now the hearts of the rebels are also fluctuating. If it were not for the two powerful armies of the Zhendong Army and the Northern Army as the mainstay, they would have been defeated by now.
When this bad news was flying all over the sky, the rebel emperor Long Tian hadn't heard good news for a long time.
"Your Majesty, just now the shadow guards sent the news that the king has sent troops to Luyang province!"
Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan waved the information he just got in his hand, and happily said to Long Tian.
"What, the capital sent troops to Luyang Province?"
After hearing Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan's words, Long Tian was taken aback for a moment, and then ecstasy appeared on his face.
"Quick, show it to me."
Long Tian also snatched the paper from Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan's hand, and looked at it at a glance.
"Hahahaha, God help me too!"
After reading the information sent by the shadow guard, Long Tian, ??the emperor of the rebel army, laughed out loud regardless of his image.
?Because of your and my intelligence, the royal court has appointed Liu Yan, General Zhengdong, as the commander-in-chief, leading an army of 100,000 to reinforce Luyang Province, and assist the mighty army to fight against the Qinghe army.
This also means that the imperial court of the royal capital will formally engage in the battle with the Qinghe Army.
This will not only greatly relieve the pressure they are currently under, but will also drag the royal court into a new war.
The rebel emperor Long Tian was well aware of the strength of the Qinghe Army, especially Yang Hao's hundreds of thousands of troops were wiped out in Dongjiang Province, which was a masterpiece of the Qinghe Army.
If it weren't for the Qinghe Army, their general storehouse with a large amount of grain and fodder would not have been burned, and they would not have a food crisis.
If it weren't for the Qinghe Army, Yang Hao might have defeated the Southern Army by now and occupied the southern grain-producing areas.
But it is precisely because of the existence of the Qinghe Army that this makes their situation so difficult.
It can be said that Long Tian hated the Qinghe Army deeply, but at the same time he had to admit the strength of the Qinghe Army.
When the Qinghe Army went north to attack Luyang Province, Long Tian had already received the report from the Shadow Guard.
In Long Tian's view, it is absolutely difficult for the mighty army of King Ning of Luyang Province to stop the Qinghe army.
Once Luyang Province is occupied by the Qinghe Army, the Qinghe Army is bound to approach the Hezhong Province and contact them.
At that time, their army will face three threats from the imperial court, prairie wolf cavalry and Qinghe army.
After Long Tian learned that the Qinghe Army was going north, he asked the shadow guards to pay close attention to the movements of the Qinghe Army.
Once the Qinghe Army really occupied Luyang Province and marched into Hezhong Province, Long Tian even thought of giving up Hezhong Province and Pingyang Province.
Because he wanted to retreat as an advance, he voluntarily gave up these areas, then contracted the defense, and led the army to retreat to the east.
At that time, let the prairie wolf ride, the imperial army and the Qinghe army will fight in this area, so that they can recuperate, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Thinking of giving up these vast areas, Long Tian felt reluctant, but if the situation collapsed, he would have to give up at that time.
But what he never expected was that the imperial court was so stupid to go to Luyang Province to help King Ning fight against the Qinghe Army.
Now that the imperial court sends troops into Luyang Province, it is bound to fall into a new battle with the Qinghe Army.
?With the strength of the Qinghe army, let alone sending 100,000 troops, even adding another 100,000 would not be an opponent.
Once the imperial court and the Qinghe army start fighting, no matter who wins or loses, it will be of great benefit to them.
Maybe when the time comes, the Qinghe Army will not turn north to the Hezhong Province, but go west to fight the imperial court.
Even if the Qinghe army will continue to go north as usual, but now there is a large army from the imperial court blocking it, will also delay time.
The army that the imperial court invested in Luyang Province will surely fall into the quagmire of war, and it will also relieve their pressure on the front line.
For Longtian, this is indeed great news, because the war between the imperial court and the Qinghe army is of great benefit to them.
"Your Majesty, if the imperial court sends troops to Luyang Province, then the rebel army will not be able to defeat Luyang Province in a short time. It will be difficult for the rebel army to threaten us in a short time."
Prime Minister Zuo Lu Quan naturally saw the benefits. If the Qinghe Army could not take down Luyang Province, it would not be able to threaten them.
They can avoid being attacked on three sides, and they don't have to shrink their defenses and retreat to the east.
"Send the news to the front line immediately, tell Li Aiqing, let him organize troops to carry out an appropriate counterattack on the front line, and contain the court's troops."
The rebel army is almost always retreating on the front line. Now that the Qinghe Army is disrupting the situation, the situation is suddenly different.
If the imperial court dispatched 100,000 troops to Luyang Province, then on all fronts, the offensive power would also be weakened.
So at this time, the pressure on their front line will be reduced, and they can adjust the front line forces, counterattack moderately, contain the court's forces, and make the court fall into a two-front battle.
As long as the imperial court is caught in a two-front battle with them and the Qinghe army, the current advantages of the imperial court will continue to be swallowed up.
?Because Long Tian was well aware of the pressure of fighting on two fronts, they were deeply moved when they faced the pincer attack from the imperial court and the prairie wolf cavalry.
After the various units of the rebel army learned that the imperial court sent troops to Luyang Province, their morale was also boosted.
Under the leadership of the commanders on all fronts, they stopped retreating and defended the city, preparing to stabilize their positions and carry out combat operations to regain lost ground.
And the Qinghe Army in Luyang Province also learned the information about the royal court's plan to send troops to Luyang Province, and immediately sent it to Li Lang, the commander in chief of the front line.
"A 100,000 army really thinks highly of us."
Hearing that the imperial court was going to send 100,000 troops into Luyang Province, the frontline commander Li Lang not only did not have the slightest fear, but looked relaxed.
"It doesn't matter if he has 100,000 or 200,000, as long as he dares to come, they will never return!"
The deputy commander Zhou Ba and others were too fearless, and they did not take the army of 100,000 courts into their eyes at all.
At this moment, they have more than 200,000 troops in Luyang Province. This is a well-trained elite army. They have the confidence to fight against any powerful enemy.
"Immediately send the information back to the base camp and present it to the commander-in-chief."
Li Lang is not afraid of the imperial court's 100,000 troops. He is confident that he will wipe out all the enemies in the future, but he still has to obey Chen Zi'ang's orders.
However, the mission of their spring offensive is to occupy Luyang Province. Once they start a large-scale war with the imperial court, the current preparations are obviously insufficient.
Their plan to end the battle in Luyang Province within a few months also needs to be changed accordingly, and they must be prepared for a long-term fierce battle, so the commander-in-chief Chen Ziang is required to make a strategic layout.
It is also a question of whether to keep the imperial army out of Luyang Province or let them in to fight. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
