The lobby of the government office.

Today is the day to raise the account and discuss the matters of going out, this matter is a military matter, and it should have been carried out in the barracks, but now there are not only the 400,000 elites from before, but also the 200,000 recruits under Huang Daoyi, if the generals gather in the new barracks, the generals of the veteran barracks will inevitably feel cold, and vice versa, so, for the sake of fairness, Qin Huai decided to discuss matters here.

The people who participated in this meeting, at least all of them were adjutant generals and above, a total of 600,000 troops, and their adjutant generals and generals were countless, more than 100 people, all of them stood in the hall and looked a little crowded, but the generals had no objections, and all of them were straight, with serious and excited expressions.

After everyone stood still, Qin Huai coughed lightly twice, signaling everyone to be quiet, and at the same time, he took out a list and began to roll call.

And at this moment, Ling Feng walked in, he was also interested, he didn't alarm anyone, after entering the lobby lightly, he found a place to stand at the back, this scene was rarely seen, because everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Huai, Qin Huai saw it, but he didn't make a sound, and Ren Jiu continued to roll call.

Ling Feng raised his head slightly, his eyes shining and glancing at every general in the hall, these people were all physically strong and proud, it was not difficult to imagine that they must have followed Qin Huai to fight on the battlefield and had been in battle for a long time.

On the other hand, the generals of the new barracks are about to lose a lot to the generals of the veteran barracks in terms of momentum, and they are far from having the kind of momentum that dominates the world. Ling Feng withdrew his gaze, and finally fell on Liu Hai, Huang Daoyi and others, these people were also in the lobby, and they were not far from his location, since Liu Hai and others were here, it could be explained that all the generals under Qin Huai's tent had come, and no one was absent, this was really a huge gathering.

"Taishi, are we going to go out of the nest this time?"

When Qin Huai finished the roll call, a veteran battalion general stood up in the middle of the lobby.

In fact, the hearts of everyone present are like mirrors, if they don't come out of the nest, why gather all the people? In other words, since it has been gathered, it must be the whole army!

"Well, that's a good question!"

Qin Huai put down the list, then sat down on his seat, and said with a smile: "In this northern expedition, Your Majesty did not stipulate the number of soldiers going out, but only said that the elite battalion of recruits should accompany you, and as for the rest, it is up to this Taishi to decide!" ”

"This Taishi has decided that in this northern expedition, 400,000 veteran battalions, 200,000 new battalions, a total of 600,000 troops, will be dispatched, and every general here must follow the expedition, and there must be no mistakes!"

Hearing this news, the generals present were all overjoyed, and even Liu Hai couldn't close his mouth with a smile, he had learned the news that Ling Feng was going to lead the army to the expedition two days ago, and he was still envious at that time, but he didn't expect that feng shui would take turns, and now he could also follow the expedition.

"Obey the orders of the Grand Master!"

All prayed at the same time.

Ling Feng also arched his hand, but he thought about it more, and at this time he was puzzled, and he was even more puzzled by Qin Huai's move.

"General Ling, why are you shaking your head?"

Suddenly, just as Ling Feng lost his mind, a slightly old voice came from above the front of the hall.

Ling Feng looked at it in response, and the person who spoke was Qin Huai!

Ling Feng was shocked, he didn't expect that even a slight shake of his head would not be able to escape Qin Huai's eyes, it was hard to imagine how vicious Qin Huai's eyes should be.

At this time, there was no time to think about it, because everyone's eyes in the lobby were cast, Ling Feng straightened his clothes, and quickly came to the middle of the lobby and replied: "Master Yu, the last general shook his head because there was something unclear. ”

Seeing Ling Feng come out, Liu Hai unconsciously pursed his lips, and secretly said, "I will really find an opportunity to come out." ’

Now all the big people are there, if anyone can say a few words at this time, they will be famous directly, you must know that standing in this hall, but the generals of the 600,000 army are all meritorious people!

"Say it."

Qin Huai waved his hand.

Ling Feng said: "Master Yu, although Pang Yi is a famous general, his Wen Tian is vulnerable, and his subordinates are also temporarily formed, and it is difficult to cooperate with each other due to lack of training, so the combat effectiveness will not be too strong; With the strategy of the etheric master, 100,000 elites are enough to defeat a strong enemy, so why send 600,000, isn't this a waste of money and food? ”

As soon as Ling Feng finished speaking, Huang Daoyi also said: "Yes, Taishi, the 600,000 army going out on the expedition is not trivial, the money and grain consumed is six times that of 100,000 people, that is to say, if 100,000 people want to consume 200,000 quintals of grain, then these 600,000 people will consume more than 1 million tons of grain, although the court is rich, but it can't withstand such consumption, the general is worried that His Majesty will not agree." ”

Huang Jiyi actively cooperated and asked the doubts in his heart.

The two sang and harmonized, not realizing that at this moment they had become the public enemy of everyone, especially the veteran battalion generals, all of whom glared angrily at Ling Feng and Huang Daoyi, they had been silent for many years, and they had long been looking forward to the day when they could come to the battlefield again, but the few words just now between the two of them, if Qin Huai adopted them, then many people here would have their dreams shattered

Compared to the veteran barracks, the generals of the new barracks were the same, but they didn't dare to anger Huang Daoyi, they could only hate Ling Feng!

"General Liu, is this kid stupid? Didn't he want to go on the expedition? ”

"You are wrong, Your Majesty has already said on the Golden Palace that the elite battalion will march north with the army, and Chrysostom will never change it, he is completely sure!"

"I see, this kid is too insidious, he wants us to not be able to go to the new barracks!"

"Humph! Don't let me get a chance, or I'll make him look good!" ”

Liu Hai was angry and whispered to a general beside him, from the words of the two of them, it was not difficult to see that every word was full of hatred for Ling Feng! I can't wait to break it into pieces! ”

Qin Huai looked at Ling Feng and Huang Weiyi, and said, "You don't have to worry about this, this Taishi will let Your Majesty agree, as for spending more money and food, if you can defeat the enemy army with the power of thunder, you can consume more, Your Majesty will not care." ”

"Besides, if I let only 100,000 of you go on the march, would you be glad?"

Qin Huai sighed: "Let's go together, let the anti-thieves see the strength of our ****!" ”

As soon as Qin Huai finished speaking, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Ling Feng also stepped aside, from Qin Huai's brief words just now, he guessed the other party's thoughts, Qin Huai must want to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and use this expedition against Pang Yi to shock those forces who want to rebel but dare not rebel, such as rogues, bandits, border aliens, etc., and even those generals who have been stripped of their military power by the emperor.

Qin Huai's move can really be described as well-intentioned, and it is extremely far-reaching.

Ling Feng regretted it a little, he really shouldn't have stood up just now, he couldn't even see such a simple thing clearly, wouldn't it make Qin Huai underestimate? But it's useless to regret it, because it has already happened.

"Alright, let's discuss the specific marching strategy."

Qin Huai got up and looked at the map behind him, and said: "Generals, as the saying goes, the lion fights the rabbit and still makes all his strength, my dignified army of 600,000 people, although the odds of winning are safe, but also not to despise Pang Yi, this person can lead the army to defeat the Yi people, and his strategy and talent are also first-class." ”

Speaking of this, Qin Huai pointed to a location at the bottom of the map and said: "This is Surabaya County, it is extremely important to hold the imperial capital and the throat of northern Xinjiang, I guess Pang Yi will definitely seize this place, so we must raise an army as soon as possible and hold it before the enemy captures Surabaya Pass!" ”

"Taishi, Surabaya Pass is only eight hundred miles away, the last general will ask for orders and go to the station!"

Below the lobby, a general arched his hand and said.

"No need."

Qin Huai waved his hand: "Yesterday, I have already sent someone to pass the order, so that Qin Liang will be closed and strictly defended, I expect that I will not lose the city within two months, and at that time my army has already arrived, Pang Yi will definitely lose this battle!" ”
