In the fluttering snowflakes, the second general of the hunting battalion who was galloping on the field, Luo Kedi, shook off the fine snow particles that fell on the big cloud, and suddenly spit out a puff of white smoke......

Looking at the faces of the subordinates who gathered in front of him, it seemed that he had pounced again.

Then Luo Kedi knew, strictly speaking, they were not completely empty, on the edge of a small river, in the trampled grass and muddy, and on the side of the embers of the campfire that was too cold to be cold, there were a pile of corpses stacked and hugged together, as if warming each other.

Most of them died in their sleep, and a few people were woken up by freezing, and in the process of trying to save themselves, they were physically exhausted and froze to death in a short period of activity, so they still retained a variety of actions and postures such as picking clothes and mowing grass before death.

As a matter of fact, with the artificially created uninhabited areas ranging from more than 10 miles to tens of miles wide, military buffer zones are gradually taking shape at the front of various sections from Yunzhou to Suzhou.

Their pursuit and clearance activities are also coming to an end.

As the snow fell, Humaer, who had fled and hid like ditch rats, came out of hiding like the walking dead as if they had lost their last fighting spirit and ideas.

Begin wandering aimlessly through the wilderness, then beg for every armed man they come across, or simply become the cold corpses on the side of the dead roadside, sometimes mutilated.

From time to time, therefore, a handful of cavalry headed east, and behind the horses were a string of hobbling figures with their hands tied like gourds.

Of course, about half of the captives were able to make it back to the line of defense unharmed.

As the second battalion of hunting horses with a strong Northland style,

In addition to the half-body scale armor, the saber and a pair of long and short firearms, the horse also carried several more short spears that could be thrown and pierced.

Among the dozens of battalions in the three major military orders of Huaidong, among the tens of thousands of fighting athletes, there are only a handful of exclusive cavalry of the three battalions, and they have their own pride and reserve.

Chasing down and searching for these scattered Fanhu horses is really a bit overkill and killing chickens with Wagyu knives

Yidu, in the small inner hall of the Zhenfu Mansion, a meeting is being held

"The good news is that the enemy is already at the end of the crossbow"

I looked at the faces of several people in the tent, which basically represented the top end of this small circle.

"In each section of the third line of the theater, there are fortresses reporting that they will no longer engage the enemy......"

"The hunting battalion, the life capture group, and the guerrilla group that went out did not find a large number of enemy traces......

"There is no shortage of dead human and horse corpses along the road......"

"In Yanzhou and Yizhou, as well as the lifting of martial law and the repatriation of most of the mobilized servitude......"

"Only some of the trained military garrisons remained...... Just in case"

"After this battle......"

Zhao Long spoke again

"I felt the need to adjust the town's strategy......"

Xin Jiaxuan nodded slightly, but Lu Wuguan was thoughtful, and Wang Gui, who had always been very aggressive, had the same expression.

"The focus will be on the sweeps and sorties of those Fanhu......"

He continued.

"Changed to a ...... to attack and weaken the North"

"After all, those Saiwai Fanhu are exhausted,"

"Even if you leave it alone...... Recession and decline are inevitable."

"In the future, only the army and the Northern Dynasties will be left to confront ......"

"I'm afraid it's not a good thing in the long run......"

"Exactly ......"

Xin Jiaxuan nodded.

"The opposite trend of Huaibei town and the northern army, and the staggered trend of Henan Saihu and the northern country......"

"Among the tripartite stands, Huaizhen has the least room for turnaround......"

"It is true that there needs to be an internal control of Saihu in order to unfold the situation......"

Lu Wuguan also interfaced.

"Otherwise, we will have to deal with the pressure from the north with all our might......"

"Then after the beginning of winter, add another sudden move......"

I decided

"This time, I don't want to push forward steadily, in order to seek a quick and quick solution......"

"Now that the southern front has been fought...... Be on guard for the short term"

Zhao Long proposed

"Then this time it will be changed to the northern line along the Huang, how about Yunzhou as the place of requisition, Huazhou and Puzhou?"

"Three battalions of hunting and cavalry can be dispatched, and several battalions of the main combat battalion of infantry cavalry are ......"

Xin Jiaxuan thought for a while

"The scale is limited to about 5,000 people, such a soldier and horse envoy command,"

"You can have two horses to three horses for one person, and carry a half-moon mouth ......"

"Okay, if you don't fight the big city all the way, you will burn it for me,...... Try to disturb the place as much as possible."

I applaud

"Strive for the fastest speed, and it is best to break through to the Wujiao Pass,......"

"It's good to be able to shake the northern capital ......"

"Although fighting along the Yellow River, there is a risk of being cut off from the back road."

Wang Gui finally expressed his opinion

"But the corresponding strategy of advancing with light cavalry and turning to a hurry should be able to circumvent ......"

"Since it is a light cavalry advance, the first choice for the leading officer is Zhao Lianghei, the commander of the Ma Army......"

Xin Jiaxuan looked at me inquiringly

"This man is skillful in bowing and using a weapon......"

"Zhao Liangsi can ride forward for the deputy first, but this time he still needs to coordinate the horse steps......

I shook my head slightly

"What I like is the right protector commander Han Liangchen......"

"Skillful horse-step coordinated training and tactics...... You can sit in the Chinese army without worrying"

"Choose another one as the assistant deputy, and take the car battalion as the general Zhang Xian can ...... for it"

"Responsible for covering the back roads and food routes...... With his prudence and thoroughness and the possession of the car battalion, he can fight and go in case of trouble. ”

Although they were a little surprised by the lineup, they still accepted the result.

The clerks attending the meeting also sent the contents of the meeting to the special military and staff committees to formulate further plans and strategic details in more detail.

"There is also bad news, our food losses in recent winters will increase significantly......"

I watched their expressions and continued

"The number of enemy prisoners captured and surrendered at the front has reached nearly 40,000 ......"

"Therefore, unless they can be quickly consumed in the salt works of the mines"

"Otherwise, we will have to bear the basic food ...... of these captures in the short term"

After all, before these starving captives can be put to use, they must be fed at least a few full meals before they can have the strength to work.

"Do you want to ......?"

Wang Gui, the former military commander and deputy envoy, couldn't help but lightly make a horizontal gesture on his chin.

"The killing of prisoners is ominous, let alone such a large scale ......"

The observation made Lu Wuguan shake his head and resolutely objected.

"It has also consistently violated the traditions and style of our army......"

"It's really inappropriate, so many of them, it's hard to hide the rumors afterwards ......"

Another commander, Xin Jiaxuan, also spoke out.

"Our army has always had a tradition of retaining and reforming prisoners. This fame is not easy to come by."

"After opening this head, I'm afraid it will be irreparable...... Even if the other party is Hulu"

"I'd rather release them back......"

Lu Wu Guan interface.

"Or how much can increase the enemy's burden......"

"It's not ...... right"

But it was Zhao Long who was arrested.

"These captives are so hungry that they can't go far"

"I'm afraid that it won't add much burden to the enemy, but it will increase the probability of an outbreak of the epidemic in the coming year......"

"After all, the front line has been emptied, can they cover this short distance,"

"Either they return from hunger and cold, or they go into hiding...... I'm afraid that it will be in vain."

"It's ...... to say"

I nodded.

"Then let's try to squeeze some share out of there......

"For example, feed for livestock? …… Except for military cattle and horses"

Wang Gui suggested.

"Mixed in some expired stockpiles,"

"And those melon vine leaves that have dried up in the geography, the hybridity should be enough to fool the stomach......"

"But at least 80% of the survival rate ......"

I nodded.

"Hygiene must also be ensured so that it does not become a new source of ......"

"You can't do heavy labor right away, but you can't leave people idle......"

Xin Jiaxuan said

"You can drive them to do some auxiliary work on the periphery of the mine......"

"Can you call on the military tun and the government-run farms to pay more to the public......

This is the suggestion of the land affairs concept

"You can use the surplus materials after the suspension of maritime trade to replace ......"

So the crowd worked together to finalize this matter......

In the city of Yidu, the snow is still falling,

Song Gongming, whose mind was full of data and charts from the war games, had just walked around the corner with a bunch of books in his arms, when he saw a big black man from the tower class who had been waiting for a long time in front of him, and he couldn't wait to wave and shout to him

"Brother Gongming...... Look here."

"Iron Bull, please go and have a few drinks......"

He pulled Song Gongming and introduced it

"By the way, I met a few interesting people who I hit it off at first sight......"

"It's half a fellow in Huaibei......"

Subsequently, in a newly opened delicatessen shop, Song Gongming met three other people.

"This is Chai Laoguan, nicknamed Little Whirlwind, Cangzhou people,"

"This is Old Lou...... Known as the "Jade Kirin", a person from the Daimyo Mansion"

"This is Brother Chao...... is a native of Dongxi Village, Yuncheng County,"

"It's also a fellow party of Brother Komeito......"

"Several of them are now the main adjutants of the Chen Qiao Battalion of the Capture Army......"

Song Gongming was slightly surprised, they looked different.

The firewood into the skin is slightly white, the ape arms bee waist, the eyes are thin beard; Lu Junyi has a bronzed complexion, but he has a magnificent appearance and a tall and tall complexion; As for the fellow Chao Gai, he is a broad-faced, bearded, burly and majestic man.

Although he has never known him, he has this natural affection and affinity, which makes him feel as if he has been together for a long time in an unknown place.
