The land of Dingzhou is rich in osmanthus trees, whether it is the avenue and trail, or the remote mountain forest, you can see all kinds of blooming osmanthus everywhere, this way to smell the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, refreshing people's hearts, so that the fatigue of the fast horse march has also been reduced a lot. 35xs

Located in the east of Dingzhou, Qingzuka Castle is an important border town that guards the hinterland of Dingzhou, and the terrain where the city is located is very flat for hundreds of miles, with occasional small hills and large areas of woods, but in the middle of the terrain it suddenly goes high, forming two mountains that are difficult to cross, and the junction of the mountains is Qingzuka Castle.

This city is easy to defend and difficult to attack the military important place since ancient times, occupy Qingzuka City, back can overlook Dingzhou, can overlook Xuzhou before, every time there is a big war for thousands of years, here is the place where the soldiers must take it.

When there were still three miles away from the city, Fang Ling let the horses settle down, and he took Song Ying'er and Lubei to Qingzuka City.

When I got close to Qingzuka City, I suddenly felt a solemn aura, the source of which was the dense green mounds on the mountains on both sides, with no monuments and no words, only graves. Three hundred years ago, the Great Song Kingdom was destroyed, the old ministers divided the country, there were dozens of bloody battles here in Qingzuka City, thousands of people died, because the battle was tragic and urgent, the soldiers after the death were almost buried on the spot, and even the monument was not erected.

Three hundred years later, many of the mounds have been buried by dense weeds and trees, but if you look closely, you can easily tell that they are graves, full of mountains, and when a gust of wind blows, it seems that the cries of lonely ghosts are everywhere, which makes people shudder.

For Fang Ling, of course he didn't have any fear, he just had respect in his heart, if there was no blood of these warriors, how could there be this land of Chu now?

Hurry up, and soon have come to the city under the green mound city, the city wall is tall and magnificent, its momentum is not under the clear water pass, the city wall is made of heavy boulders, and a whole row of giant heavy crossbows and a forest of defenders are placed on the wall.

The city gate was wide open, and the two rows of soldiers guarding the gate stood on both sides with straight chests, their eyes were unwavering, because Fang Ling had already sent soldiers to report, so the soldiers guarding the city knew who was coming, and they had already knelt down.

At the same time, a black-faced man in his early thirties was walking out of the city, this man was of medium height, his eyes were bright, and his expression was calm and serious, like a clay sculpture, without the slightest change in expression.

When Fang Ling and the others got off the horse, the black-faced man had just stepped out of the city gate, he glanced at the people, and saw the young Fang Ling, with a beautiful woman like a flower and jade by his side, after a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, he immediately appeared half a point of ridicule, as if he felt that the king of Shicheng regarded the war as a joke, and actually brought a woman over.

Although he thought so in his heart, the black-faced man still bowed, and said thoughtfully: "The last general, Li Yongcheng, visited His Royal Highness the King of Shicheng, and the general was unable to go out to greet him because of his official duties, and asked His Highness for forgiveness." ā€

"Since General Zhu is busy, it is also appropriate not to come, Vice General Li, please lead the way." Fang Ling smiled slightly, waved his hand, along the way he had heard a lot of things about Zhu Baolin, it is said that this person is quite talented in military affairs, but because he does not understand the way of flattery, he has not been reused repeatedly, and now it is because of the emergency in Dingzhou, Yuan Dekang has to use him to guard this place.

Just seeing the appearance of these soldiers, he knew that Zhu Baolin really had a hand in governing the army, but Fang Ling had also been to Yizhou Country before, and he felt that the soldiers there were strong and strong, and this battle was only a tough battle!

Walking into the city, there are bungalows on both sides of the road, because the war is coming, there are not many people left in the city, and the rest are also in the tense evacuation, most of the people you see along the way are soldiers defending the city, and the atmosphere of slaughter before the war envelops the whole city.

It didn't take long for the three of Fang Ling to come to the county government in the city under the leadership of Li Yongcheng, the county officials had naturally left, and were taken over by Zhu Baolin and other military generals.

As soon as he walked into the county office, Li Yongcheng stopped and said: "Your Highness, General Zhu is holding a military meeting, he doesn't like people to disturb him, but it is not polite to let His Highness wait here, so after the last general leads His Highness in, if the general has any disrespect, please Haihan." 35xsā€

"Vice General Li can rest assured, this king is not a person with a small belly. Fang Ling smiled, and secretly said that Li Yongcheng's mind was quite fine, and he started a round for Zhu Baolin first, but he was afraid that the other party would not give him a good face when he went in later.

He followed Li Yongcheng to the county hall of the county government, there were more than a dozen generals in the hall at this time, standing on both sides, and a map of Qingzuka City was hung on the wall, and in front of the map, there was a middle-aged man in his forties.

This person's appearance has nothing to do with handsomeness, and can even be described as ugly, but his majestic temperament makes this face quite strange, coupled with the arrogant and straight waist and a pair of thick eyebrows, it gives people a feeling of iron.

Needless to say, this man is General Zhu Baolin Zhu.

The footsteps of Fang Ling and the others made everyone turn around, and Li Yongcheng arched his hand and said, "Your Excellency, His Royal Highness the King of Shicheng has arrived!"

Zhu Baolin glanced at Fang Ling slightly, and then swept the two people around him, and when he saw Song Ying'er, he frowned like Li Yongcheng, obviously a little displeased, and then said coldly: "Now that a meeting is being held, it will be inconvenient for the general to salute, please forgive Your Highness." ā€

All the generals seemed to be very familiar with Zhu Baolin's character, and they were not surprised at all by his attitude of speaking, everyone looked at the young King of Shicheng, their eyes were all cold, in addition to having a clear disdain, there was also a strong sense of rejection.

The soldiers who followed Zhu Baolin were all bloody men, and most of them were not good at officialdom like him, and they were repeatedly ostracized, so they were naturally very disgusted with Fang Ling, the prince who led the troops and served the king, as if they were being monitored.

In the hearts of everyone, they felt that this prince who took a woman to the battlefield was just a walk-through, and Bobo was famous, so no one had a sense of awe.

All the generals were in the same mind, and suddenly the hall was full of faint coercion, as if Fang Ling and the others were not facing a group of humans, but broke into a wolf den, inside which were wild wolves staring at each other, and the slightest mistake would lose their lives.

Fang Ling looked at everyone calmly, not only was he not afraid or annoyed, but he appreciated it very much, what the soldiers were doing, they were not flattering to each other, they were going to win the battle, the more upright they were, the more they were not afraid of power, the more he felt that this group of bloody men was extraordinary, just glaring at them like this, they had such momentum, if they went to the battlefield, wouldn't they be ten times better?

And this Zhu Baolin, so unruly, and able to win the support of everyone, it can be seen that there is indeed a hand, if you can subdue your subordinates, it is best to use it for yourself.

So in the face of everyone's contempt, Fang Ling was not angry, and smiled calmly: "I wish the general please continue, this king is waiting by the side." ā€

Seeing the expression of the King of Shicheng like this, everyone looked at each other, but the disdain on their faces became even stronger, and they shook their heads one by one, thinking that Fang Ling was shocked by everyone's momentum, it seems that this prince is just a soft-footed shrimp, if he goes to the battlefield, won't he be scared and his feet will be weak?

Zhu Baolin's eyes also flashed with a trace of disdain, and he coughed lightly, diverting the attention of the generals, and then pointed to the map and said: "According to the news from the spies, fifteen miles away from this city, the army of Yizhou has been stationed, and the number is about five thousand. Judging from the situation of Yizhou's multi-road march, this should only be the vanguard force. ā€

A dwarf general said: "General, there are three county towns in Dingzhou opposite our city, Bantai County, Wu County and Jingui County, if the other party attacks from multiple routes, I am afraid that the army will be stationed in these three cities, and then form a four-way attack!"

The generals couldn't help but whisper, the vanguard alone had five thousand, and the other three people were only afraid that it was two or three times as much as five thousand, and a young general gritted his teeth and said: "General, let's attack first and eat the opponent's vanguard troops!"

When he said this, several young generals immediately echoed, Zhu Baolin snorted coldly: "Do you know who the enemy's general is, that is one of the four famous generals of Yizhou Guoda - Gu Shaofeng, this person was born into a family, three generations of his family are generals, this person is known as a trick at a young age, and the strangeness of his use of troops is quite fearful, in the land of Xuzhou, Lianke Ten Cities, how can such a person make such a low-level mistake? If I am not false, this vanguard is just a bait. "Update fastest mobile phone: s:/m.33xs/

Fang Ling couldn't help but secretly admire, this person was really calm and keen, with him sitting in Qingzuka City, I was afraid that Gu Shaofeng would also have a headache. However, the disparity in strength between the two sides will become the key to affecting the battle situation, no matter how powerful Zhu Baolin is, if he does not have many troops in his hand, he is afraid that it will not be easy to defeat Gu Shaofeng.

One of the generals asked, "What should we do now, general?"

Zhu Baolin cautiously spit out a word and said, "Wait!"

"Wait?" said the crowd, confused.

Zhu Baolin said in a deep voice: "Those who are good at fighting in the past are invincible first, and then wait for the enemy to be victorious." If you want to defeat your opponent, timing is the most important, and once the time is ripe, you can destroy the enemy with a surprise attack, so what you need to do now is to detect every move of the enemy!"

All the soldiers nodded one after another, and then, Zhu Baolin began to arrange tasks, some were responsible for consolidating the fortifications, some were responsible for preparing grain and grass, and some were responsible for sending spies to investigate.

Fang Ling couldn't help but secretly praise, don't look at this person's appearance is not amazing, but this arrangement can be described as meticulous. In the arrangement, he moved his eyes to the map and wrote down all the topographical maps around Qingzuka Castle.
