Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

On January 14, 1 of Tianxuan, Qu Mao and Liu Qianhui, under the escort of 20 fourth-rank camel riders, sent Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao to Xirong City, and then passed the two-way portal in the center of Xirong City to personally transport Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao to Xirong City. Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao sent the steam train back to the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's territory, and then returned to Xirong City together.

Afterwards, Qu Mao and Liu Qianhui convened a meeting of 32 military heroes from the Marquis of Shaliu in the city hall of Xirong City. The intelligence department of Xirong City stationed in Sunan, the hero, naturally also attended the meeting.

At the beginning of the establishment of the territory of Shaliuhou Kingdom, the territory of Emperor Yi had already decided to equip the Kingdom of Shaliuhou with 16 firearms soldiers, plus the recruitment coupons for 7121 traditional rank fighters obtained from opening treasure boxes, and the gifts sent by Su Yan. With 200 fourth-rank camel riders, the military strength of Marquis Shaliu is infinitely close to 17.

However, due to the harsh climate and environment of Shaliuhou State, most of the 16 Firearms Army soldiers gathered in Xirong City, mainly because Xirong City initially built four military camps. After the Holy Land arrived by steam train, Xirong City urgently built 4 military camps.

Among the 11 towns in the Marquis of Shaliu, which has the largest number of barracks and accommodates the largest number of soldiers, Xirong City is of course the most capable of accommodating troops.

The 32 military heroes, even those who were stationed in other towns before, were notified by Liu Qianhui in advance to come to Xirong City for a meeting.

Qu Mao glanced at the crowded military heroes in the city hall of Xirong City, but did not speak, but only glanced at Liu Qianhui.

Liu Qianhui cleared her throat with a cough, and said, "Everyone, the original intention of the establishment of the Marquis of Shaliu was to build a base and base belonging to Emperor Yi's territory on the Western Continent, and at the same time open up the relationship with our ally, Fulu. Empires—a land link between.

Today, a total of 11 towns in the Kingdom of Shaliu have all been built, and they have the ability to garrison troops and provide relay stations for desert marches. Therefore, we must consider fulfilling the original intention of the establishment of the Kingdom of Shaliu: to open up the land with the Fulu Empire. connect.

There are two forces that hinder our land connection with the Fulu Empire, one is the Maoqiusi Kingdom of the Fulu Alliance, and the other is the Marquis of Erstan.

The Marquis of Erstan is entrusted to our ally Fulu Empire to attack, but the Kingdom of Maoqiusi needs us to get through by ourselves.

And after capturing the Moon City of the Maoqiusi Kingdom, as long as our allies send troops to the Lieyang City of the Maoqiusi Kingdom, the land connection channel between us will be opened.

Our country of Shaliu is not completely unprepared. We have built a city on the moon and a city on the moon in the northwest and southwest of the lower moon city of Maoqiusi Kingdom. These two towns have now been built separately. Well 8 barracks.

我的想法是：在天选14年1月份结束前，沙柳侯国的火器军至少调集12万名战士驻扎在月上城和月中城；在天选14年2月1日凌晨，我们出动火器军战士出其不意地将月下城彻底夺下，并且阻止月下城向毛球思王国其他城镇求援和传讯。

Of course, Yuexia City is just a small city. According to the scale of its walls, I estimate that the total population living in it will not exceed 2, and the number of soldiers stationed there will not exceed 2000.

With the advanced weapons and equipment of our firearms soldiers, I think it will be a matter of minutes to take down Yuexia City, but the problem is that we have to take down Yuexia City quietly, we must not leak any news, and we cannot let Yuexia City Get in touch with other cities and towns in the kingdom of Moguls.

Ladies and gentlemen, once we can quietly capture Moon City, it means that the territory of the Marquis of Shaliu can extend northward by more than 300 kilometers, even if it is a desert area, it is also an expansion of the territory.At the same time, we can also capture some soldiers and civilians of the Maoqiusi Kingdom in the Lower Moon City, as well as the liaison personnel sent to get in touch with the Lower Moon City. "

Shi Buhui stood up and said: "My lord, my lord Liu, I am willing to personally lead the soldiers of the Firearms Army to enter the Yueshang City to garrison ahead of time, and I am willing to take on the task of quietly capturing the Yuexia City..."

Qu Mao and Liu Qianhui were noncommittal about Shi Buhui's challenge, but turned their attention to Sunan, the garrison hero of the Ministry of Intelligence.

Sunan said: "My lord, my lord Liu, according to the information collected by the intelligence personnel, the permanent population of Yuexia City is less than 1, mainly the families of the frontier soldiers of the Maoqiusi Kingdom, and there are only 1000 garrison troops, all of which are traditional There are only 300 second-tier fighters and as many as 700 first-tier fighters.

The main source of livelihood for residents of Yuexia City is to capture desert scorpions. Every month, Maoqiusi Kingdom will have a caravan of about [-] people come to Yuexia City to purchase desert scorpions captured by residents.

The subordinates believe that after the artillery soldiers of the Firearms Army blast open the city gate with artillery, we can capture all the soldiers and civilians in Yuexia City who have less than 1 people.

Then you can set up an ambush to capture all the caravans that came from the Maoqiusi Kingdom in early February, and then set up an ambush to capture the liaison personnel sent by the Maoqiusi Kingdom.

Now there are two intelligence officers from the intelligence department lurking in Yuexia City. There is a desert spring in Yuexia City, and there are a few plants. There is no need to completely rely on the supply from Yidi's territory.

The entire city under the moon is actually not a desert area, but the Gobi terrain on the edge of the desert. There are more vegetation as you go east and south.

The small oasis closest to Yuexia City should be about 35 kilometers away from Yuexia City in the southeast direction. It has a small forest with an area of ​​about 1000 square meters and a tree height of more than 4 meters. A small pool, the depth of the pool is about 100 meters. "

Qu Mao smiled wryly and said, "The 35-kilometer Gobi terrain is still a bit far away.

A mouthful of sweet spring in the desert in Yuexia City may not be enough to support the total population of Shaliuhou Kingdom of nearly 40. According to my calculations, the desert spring in Yuexia City may be just enough to drink for less than [-] people in Yuexia City. This is the core reason why the scale of residents in Yuexia City cannot be expanded.

However, no matter what the situation in Yuexia City is, we still need to take down Yuexia City and garrison troops in Yuexia City to confront Fulu Alliance and Maoqiusi Kingdom. "

Liu Qianhui waved her hand and said, "Qu Mao, Sunan, let's stop talking about these useless things.

Shi Buhui, don't be in a hurry to call for battle. There are plenty of opportunities for combat and meritorious deeds. Now our core task is to discuss and clarify the specific arrangements for sending troops and combat. Let's hurry up and gather troops in Upper Moon City and Mid-Moon City. "

Qu Mao nodded and said, "Yes, gathering troops is very important. This is the prerequisite for combat. Supplies must be delivered to Moon City and Mid Moon City in advance."
