Chapter 1016 – Annan’s Counterattack

Li Jing was appointed, but he did not start work right away.

The current Battle of Annan had entered its key stage, and the Bear Legion Corps was being led by Baiqi. As a result, it was not appropriate for Li Jing to step in. It would be better for him to take over after the battle ended.

Li Jing did not stay in Shanhai City for long. The king had high hopes for him, so in return, he could only use his war achievements to prove the king correct.

In history, be it fighting in the grasslands or the high plains, neither was difficult for him.

The two Lis, Li Jing and Li Mu, would be the future of Great Xia in fighting against Tibet, West Xia, and West Turk.

Ouyang Shuo had already instructed Li Jing that after the Battle of Annan ended, the Bear Legion Corps were to move from the current Jiangchuan Province to Qiang Prefecture in the Shu Lands to go against Tibet.

Li Jing left Shanhai City to proceed toward Qiang Prefecture to set the groundwork for his future operations against Tibet.

…

Within the Xia palace Imperial Reading Room, Ouyang Shuo gathered Zhang Yi and Shen Buhai to give them both a secret mission.

That night, the magic powered submarine called Black Shark that was docked in Beihai Bay sneakily left the port and disappeared into the ocean.

Along with it was a high level official from the Honglu Temple.

Gaia 5th year, 4th month, 20th day, Annan Region.

During the past few days when the internal battle in China occurred, the Annan Region was not totally calm. After a reorganization, the Annan battlefield had entered a critical stage.

The final fates of the 500 thousand trapped Annan players was obvious.

Under the joint efforts of Huo Qubing and Mu Guiying, the Haiphong City 4th legion was crushed. Along with it, the entire south of Annan was under Great Xia’s rule.

After the battle, the two groups of troops did not stay for long. Apart from leaving some men to defend and collect prisoners, most of them used merchant ships to go around Hai Van mountain and appear north of Annan to gather with Ma Chao.

After the two legions met up, they continued up north.

At the same time, the three City Protection Legions led by Shi Wanshui picked up the pace in sweeping the northern territories of Annan.

Haiphong City was not quiet either.

Recently, the Emperor Squadron and the 1st division of the Pacific Squadron had a joint bombing of the city.

As the main city, its defenders were obviously better than Danang City. Although they were both ocean cities, this one had around 200 cannons on its city walls.
