"What does the Taishi mean?"

Ling Feng asked.

Qin Huai was silent, all this was just conjecture after all, what was Jiang Yiyuan's mind, what was the purpose of sending this letter, no one dared to draw conclusions, although Ling Feng repeatedly told him that this was true, he also had to think about it carefully, after all, he had already suffered several losses.

After a little silence, he suddenly shook his head and said: "Forget it, the Northern Expedition is a prosperous cause, don't take risks, let's wait for the spring to storm Surabaya Pass, so that even if I can't win quickly, I will never fail." ”

Ling Feng sighed, and then worried: "But there is news from the north, Pang Yi is expanding his army every day, and his subordinates have expanded to more than 300,000, I am afraid that he will reinforce Surabaya Pass, and then the possibility of our victory will be even smaller." ”

As soon as he said this, Qin Huai thought of Wei Ning again, he knew the situation in the north in more detail than Ling Feng, and when he heard that Wei Ning was also expanding his army, he was really startled, what did this mean, it meant that Wei Ning had probably reversed!

This added a lot of difficulty to the northern expeditionary army, which was difficult to move an inch.

Qin Huai sighed and said, "If I hadn't given Wei Ning the Heavenly Son Sword at the beginning, maybe I wouldn't have caused the current situation. ”

"The Taishi's words are wrong."

Ling Feng said: "Wei Ning can't call on the soldiers of the three northern counties without the Sword of the Son of Heaven, so now I'm afraid that these three counties will all fall into the hands of Pang Yi, so it's even more terrifying, and Surabaya Pass will never be captured." ”

After a pause, Ling Feng continued: "Actually, if you want to capture Surabaya Pass, or even defeat Pang Yi, it's not impossible, but there is only one way. ”

Qin Huai looked at him.

Ling Feng said: "Take the waterway, even if it is a little slower and more dangerous, the effect of a strange soldier is twice as good as that of a heavy soldier, maybe you can capture Wei Ning and control the three counties without much effort." ”

Qin Huai smiled bitterly and muttered, "My army has already fallen to the city of Surabaya, how can I turn back again; Forget it, let's discuss this matter after the beginning of spring. ”

Ling Feng was a little disappointed, but Qin Huai didn't agree, and he couldn't help it.

Standing up, Ling Feng said, "Then I will go back first." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Time flies quickly, and a month later, it is already the beginning of spring at this time, that is, the sixteenth day of the first month.

Every year in this season, the people are lively, the streets and alleys are full of cheerful words, but this year, especially in the Kaiyuan and Surabaya areas, there is a tense atmosphere, the people are worried all day long, not to mention laughter, even go out are very few, the pedestrians on the street are also rushing, and hurry home after being busy with their own things, for fear of harming themselves.

In this month, Kaiyuan, Surabaya, and even Northern Xinjiang are all peaceful, although they are all guarding against each other, but the two sides are not in contact with each other, and they are all waiting and seeing.

Wei Ning has indeed expanded his army, with a terrifying 300,000 troops in his hands, and the newly recruited soldiers have also been completely integrated with the previous hundreds of thousands of imperial court soldiers and horses, and a large number of newcomers have been promoted to select reliable generals to hold important positions, and his intention has been obvious.

Pang Yi was still stationed in Huai County, with Jiang Yiqu's help, and the internal affairs were sorted out in an orderly manner, he was responsible for training the troops every day, and the 300,000 army was already quite combat-ready, and the armor and equipment were all ready.

As for the battle in Liuhai in the west, it was a little unsatisfactory, and the troops of Liuhai were not much, only 10,000, and later more than 20,000 county soldiers were mobilized from all over Kaiyuan, which was also a little stronger.

30,000 soldiers attacked the county town where Chen Fang was garrisoned by more than 10,000 soldiers, this strength was already between the two soldiers, if Liu Hai's ability was strong enough, it was still possible to take it, but he left the camp and went to conquer Chen Fang alone, originally to avoid Ling Feng, so he didn't do his best, and Chen Fang, he received a secret letter from Jiang Yiyuan, asking him to keep the situation of the two armies invincible and undefeated, only in this way would Qin Huai not send another army to recruit him; Therefore, as a result, until this moment, both armies are still invincible.

If you have to distinguish between high and low, then Chen Fang seems to have a slight upper hand, because in the past two months, Liu Hai has lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and now there are less than 20,000 soldiers in battle, and Chen Fang still has more than 8,000, and all of them are cavalry!

But even so, Chen Fang did not send troops to attack Liu Hai, he had all cavalry in his hands, and if they all rushed out to fight Liu Hai, it was still very possible to defeat the other party.

It's a pity that no one pays attention to the battle here, and no one notices anything strange here.

Ling Feng had been going to the mansion almost every day since the beginning of the month to ask Qin Huai for the Qin family's gun, so he didn't have time to pay attention there.

After a month of study, his martial arts attainments at the moment are no longer what they used to be, and his understanding of the Qin family gun is also more profound, and compared with before, he has made great progress.

And Qin Huai also admires Ling Feng's understanding, his Qin family gun is extremely profound, and he has to learn it together with internal skills and moves, if it is an ordinary person, he can't even touch the fur for a year and a half, but Ling Feng has almost mastered it in just one month, as long as he uses logistics and hard training, he will definitely be able to deepen his skills.

Qin Huai said secretly, sure enough, he didn't see the wrong person, smart people often learn everything quickly.

But how did he know that Ling Feng didn't learn it in this month, but pondered for several months, and had already started learning before he set out on the expedition.

I've already learned about it, and all that's left is to sort out some difficult problems.

With Qin Huai's help, those things that he didn't understand were quickly understood, his current martial arts have advanced by leaps and bounds, and Qin Huai has made moves, as long as the other party suppresses a little internal force, in terms of moves, he will not be defeated within thirty moves.

can live with Qin Huai for thirty moves, this achievement is very terrifying, and those who can do this in the world are afraid that there is no hand

At the beginning of spring, the weather cleared, the land recovered, and the northern army began to be busy again.

Under Qin Huai's signal, soldiers and horses from all walks of life gathered towards Surabaya Pass one after another, and the battle was about to start.

However, this time Qin Huai changed the siege strategy, he no longer attacked strongly, but selected more than a dozen generals with strong martial arts, ready to fight with Jiang Yiyuan, because he saw that the strong attack was a great loss, and it turned out that Surabaya Pass was indeed strong and could not be broken overnight. More than 100,000 soldiers died last year, and they didn't return in vain.

"Maybe it's also a good way to attack the city by disintegrating the enemy's will to fight psychologically," Qin Huai thought in his heart.

And as the party defending the city, Jiang Yiyuan is now fearless, he transferred 50,000 elite soldiers from Pang Yi, and now Surabaya Pass has soldiers and soldiers, food and grain, even if there are more enemies, he is not afraid, the key is that after last year's battle with Qin Huai, he already has the bottom of his heart, unless the enemy can use trebuchets to directly smash the wall of Surabaya Pass, otherwise it will not be broken.
