Chapter 1133 – Final Battle Mindanao
Facing thebined attacks of the Guards Legion Corps on two fronts, the fate of the Canberra army was imaginable.
And just as the battle on the Australian battlefield began, the Luzon battlefield thousands of miles away also broke the silence and experienced new developments.
The one that broke the bnce was the Java reinforcements.
As the only Lord in Java, Uwais was naturally not weak. After deciding to give up on Australia, he turned his eyes to Luzon.
Their three as one body was alreadycking one corner, and they could not afford to lose Luzon.
Based on Luzon Lord Mading’s suggestion, they were prepared to strike out while the Guards Legion Corps were trapped in Australia.
Their target would be the Hanoi legion corps that was at the south side of Mindanao.
The Hanoi Legion corps had only sent out three legions to this battle, and their overall numbers did not exceed 210 thousand. Within the Luzon territory main city Lloilo, they had 100 thousand territory troops and 100 thousand Java reinforcements.
Before the battle, Lloilo had 400 thousand territory troops. After losing 100 thousand during the Battle of Laoag, the remaining 300 thousand were split up on the three main inds.
Luzon ind had 100 thousand to fight along with the imperial city guards andbat upation yers. They needed to prevent the Dragon Legion Corps from going down south. Mindanao had 10 thousand to prevent Great Xia’s Hanoi legion corps from invading.
Mading wanted to take the chance that the Dragon Legion Corps and Guards Legion Corps were being blocked to gather up strength and surround Great Xia’s Hanoi legion corps.
If they could destroy these three legions in one swoop, it would undoubtedly help raise all their morale.
Uwais was convinced by Mading and decided to send 150 thousand more troops to form a 400 thousand strong Alliance Army to go down south of Mindanao to take down the Hanoi legion corps.
This time, the Hanoi Legion corps’ situation became really precarious.
As a border defense army, their equipment wasparable to Java and Luzon. However, in terms of strength, they were not as strong as the Guards Legion Corps such that they could achieve a crushing victory.
Two against one; in such a situation, the Hanoi legion corps definitely would not be able to win.
...
11th month, 11th day, Mindanao gan City.
As the only territory in Luzon, Lloilo not only had a teleportation formation at the main city but also one in gan city in Mindanao.
Usually, it defended against what was their ally now – Java.
At night, 100 thousand Lloilo troops along with 250 thousand Java reinforcements teleported over here and gathered with the 100 thousand troops that were camped in the city.
During the Australia country war period, with the help of the Yashan Squadron, the Hanoi legion corps sessfully disembarked on the South Bay of Mindanao, taking down Davao.
Hanoi legion corps marshal Xue Rengui realized this point – if he wanted to take down Mindanao, he needed to first break down Lligan and cut off the reinforcements from Lloilo.
Hence, after taking down Davao, the Hanoi legion corps did not sweep around and went up north, heading toward gan city. Before the Luzon reinforcements arrived, Hanoi had already surrounded the city.
Night, Hanoi region corpsmander tent.
Themp in the tent flickered as Xue Rengui, who was in martial attire, sat in front of his desk. Looking at the order from themander, he was deep in thought.
The ck Snake Guards had done a really good infiltration of Luzon.
When the Java reinforcements arrived in Lloilo and disappeared from the city along with the Luzon territory army, the news was caught by the ck Snake Guards spies and reported to themander right away.
The enemy’s obvious battle motives naturally could not avoid the eyes of Baiqi and Jia Xu.
“Advisor how should he adapt to this change? Should we ask the Hanoi legion corps to retreat?” Baiqi sought Jia Xu’s opinion.
Jia Xu was at leisure as usual. He did not directly reply; instead, he changed the topic, “Based on the frontline intel, the Battle of Australia is close to its end and can be finished at any time.”
Baiqi was really patient, waiting for Jia Xu to reveal his n.
“I have a n that can fulfill the linking up of all threends.” As he said that, Jia Xu started to describe his battle n. The more Baiqi heard, the brighter his eyes grew.
When Jia Xu finished, Baiqi was filled with praise. He smiled widely, “As expected from the top strategist in the dynasty.”
“Generalpliments me too much!” Jia Xu said humbly.
“Then let’s follow your n. I’ll send an order to the armies.”
...
Xue Rengui received a really weird order – the Hanoi legion corps had to act like they were being defeated and back off all the way to Davao City.
Throughout the process, the Hanoi legion corps needed to create a false impression to make the enemy feel that they needed just a little more to crush the Hanoi legion corps, wetting their appetite to attract the main force of the enemy out of gan.
“Is themander headquarters trying to...”
Xue Rengui roughly guessed the goal, “Only, where do the troopse from?”
Since he could not understand it, Xue Rengui did not think anymore random thoughts and focused on the military order. He wouldplete what themander wanted.
“Men!”
“Present!”
“Gather the generals for a midnight meeting!”
“Yes, general!”
Very quickly, the Major General and above generals gathered up. Naturally, the three Legion Generals Pei Xingyan, Xiang Zhuang, and Le Loi were seated at the front.
The news of the enemy troops reinforcing gan had spread out in the army. Should they fight or defend? The generals did not have a clue. Upon hearing that the marshal was going to have a meeting, they swiftly rushed over.
Xue Rengui did not talk too much and swiftly read out the n.
Only when the dead of night arrived did the generals leave one by one, spreading the tactics throughout the night to the divisions.
...
11th month, 12th day, gan City.
Early in the morning, when Luzon Lord Mading brought the generals to the city wall, the Hanoi legion corps that had surrounded Lligan City had backed off 10 miles, and there were no signs of them.
“Scoff, they have good intel.” Mading said in disappointment.
Originally, Mading was prepared to wait for Hanoi legion corps to siege before giving them a big surprise.
Now, it seems like the enemy had done a great job in terms of intel work.
“Since we have been revealed, let’s fight.”
A country war was a race against time, and every day that passed increased the amount of uncertainty. As such, Mading did not have room to hesitate. With the military order given, apart from leaving 50 thousand people to defend the city, the remaining 400 thousand troops set out.
As the Lord, Mading also remained in gan City.
Mading was not a fool. Naturally, he knew about the importance of Iligan City and the detriments of it being lost. It was something him or the entire Luzon could not ept. As a result, no matter what, he would not let down his guard towards lligan city.
