Chapter 516: Northwest Company Army, Father and Son Reunited! 2
Translator: 549690339
After discovering that the Great Zhou’s strength was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
The Qin army, who had a smooth journey, finally stopped underestimating them. They did not continue to stay in the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They carried the gold, silver, and jewelry they had stolen and began to retreat like the wind.
This battle was fought.
The deficit left behind by the Qin army’s long-distance attack on the Great Zhou Dynasty was finally made up for. The gold, silver, and jewelry harvested from the Central Plains during the two-month plunder were enough for the Qin army to digest for several years.
After the Qin army left, the Great Zhou took over Futian Pa.s.s immediately.
After all, the Qin army was not the only enemy outside Futian Pa.s.s. The Northwest Coalition Army formed after the rebellion of the Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army had become a thorn in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s side.
Without a doubt, if it wasn’t for the Northwest Coalition Army’s rebellion at the critical moment, the Northwest Coalition Army would have been defeated.
The Great Zhou would definitely not have fallen to such a miserable state.
For a time, the Zhou Dynasty’s internal voices for the crusade against the Northwest Alliance Army grew louder and louder.
After taking over Futian Pa.s.s, the Zhou Dynasty’s soldiers licked their wounds as they glared at the Northwest Coalition Army.
At this moment, their thoughts were actually very simple-if they couldn’t take care of the Qin army, why couldn’t they take care of the rebel army that only ruled the barren land in the northwest?
Of course, Great Zhou had just experienced the flames of war, and the country was still in a mess. The thousands of miles behind Futian Pa.s.s had been trampled by the Qin army’s warhorses, and hundreds of miles were deserted.
Therefore, the most important thing for the Great Zhou now was to carry out the aftermath, properly settle the refugees who had lost their land due to the war, and repair the towns and pa.s.ses that had been damaged in the war.
It was not the time to send troops.
However, all the soldiers and citizens of the Great Zhou knew that the Great Zhou would settle the rebels in the northwest sooner or later.
This was something that not only the people of the Zhou Dynasty knew, Li Yueming also knew.
Since the collapse of the Tiandu Dynasty, one of the reasons why the Six Nations were able to stand firm was that they mercilessly attacked the rebel forces in the country.
If the rebel army could survive smoothly.
Then where would the royal family’s face be?
What has been done must be done again, and what has been done must be done again.
If the Northwest Coalition Army could live comfortably after the rebellion..
Then what would the various dukes and countless soldiers of the Great Zhou think?
Therefore, from a political point of view.
Destroying the rebels in the northwest was even more important than countering the Qin army.
For this, Li Yue Ming made several preparations.
After so many years of improvement, the construction of the city wall of Northern Glacier Town was mostly completed. In the next few years, they only needed to continue to consolidate and improve the functionality of the city wall.
Not to mention the other places after the city wall, at least North Glacier Town had the power to protect itself in the vast north.
Even if the Great Zhou really sent troops to attack, Northern Glacier Town would not fall so easily.
Of course, this was not enough.
Both the Northern Battlefront Army and the Star and Moon Army were just normal armies. In front of ordinary people, who were also normal armies, they were the elites among the elites.
However, it was nothing in front of an army that possessed the military spirit.
Therefore, Li Yueming’s second plan was to borrow troops from the West Garrison Pa.s.s.
The Qin army had obtained an immeasurable amount of gold, silver, and financial reports from this attack on the Great Zhou.
They definitelv wouldn’t be able to use weapons in a short period of time.
Under such circ.u.mstances, it would be a waste to leave the 300,000 soldiers with military souls in the West Garrison Fortress. If he lent Li Yueming 100,000 soldiers, it would effectively strengthen the Star-Moon Army’s combat power.
After Li Yueming’s letter was sent over, Su Fulong, the Western Garrison Liege Lord, agreed to Li Yueming’s request after a moment of consideration.
Ever since the Western Garrison Army agreed to rebel against the Great Zhou together with the Star Moon Army.
The fate of the Western Garrison Army and the Star-Moon Army was completely locked together.
If the two regions in the northwest advanced and retreated together without holding back, they might still have the strength to fight against the Great Zhou.
As long as one side had selfishness and a gap was created, it would not be long before the Zhou Dynasty’s army attacked. The Star Moon Army and the Western Garrison Army would not be able to fight back.
Therefore, the Western Garrison Army helping the Star Moon Army was actually helping him.
Of course, Li Yueming didn’t do it for free.
The West Garrison Pa.s.s was located in the northwestern yellow sand land, so it basically did not produce much food. Therefore, Li Yueming promised that as long as the problem of the refugees in the northwest was solved, North Glacier Town would regularly transport enough food to feed the 150,000 troops every year.
It could be said that they were equally sincere.
Both parties. .h.i.t it off.
The Western Garrison Liege Lord was very generous. He directly sent Li Nanfeng and w.a.n.g Ziwei to lead 100,000 Western Garrison soldiers to guard Northern Ice River Town.
As for the third method…
It wasn’t anything else but Li Yue Ming’s super thigh, the extremely cold snow mountain’s little fox.
As long as they could maintain a friendly relationship with the little fox, the Starmoon Army would be able to protect themselves.
Even if the situation had deteriorated to the point of no return, at most, they would give up the territory they had fought so hard to obtain, Northern Glacier Town, and escape into the Hundred Thousand Mountains to seek shelter.
Of course, this was his trump card.
Li Yueming wouldn’t take it out unless it was absolutely necessary.
After all, whether it was the Star-Moon Army or Northern Ice River Town, they both needed more training. Otherwise, he would never be able to get what he wanted.
.0.
At the end of the month, the army sent by the Western Garrison Liege Lord arrived.
Li Yueming, Li Nanfeng, and w.a.n.g Ziwei finally met up again after more than
20 years..
