Winter goes to spring, the cold wind of Liao Qiao gradually goes away, the sun is not as pale and weak as the winter, on the withered yellow grass, a little bit of bright green is quietly poking out of the head, it is not clear to see it closely, but far away, you can see that the undulating land is mottled, and a piece of green is sandwiched between the withered yellow, as if putting on a flower dress for the earth.

The spring breeze is blowing, the sun is shining, this is a good day to step into the spring, but in Dingzhou, obviously people do not have this mind, Dingzhou is far into the grassland, mastering the attack on the grassland throat of the forest, but the breath of war is getting stronger with the arrival of spring.

Lu Dalin didn't care at all that the barbarian army would come to attack Shanglinli, for the barbarians, Shanglinli was basically insurmountable, and the solidity of the city defense here was the strongest and most insidious city defense structure that Lu Dalin had ever seen since he joined the army. What's more, there are enough soldiers in the upper forest, which can be attacked when advancing and defended when retreating.

"Everyone, so we go to the forest, in the upcoming battle with the barbarians, it will definitely not become the main battlefield, according to the judgment of the Great Marshal's Mansion, the best possibility is to send a force of men and horses to contain us, so that we cannot break into the depths of the grassland. And their main direction of attack must be in Dingyuan, Weiyuan. Lu Dalin glanced at his generals and said with a smile: "So, everyone, do you have any way to resolve this situation, well, I mean we can be more proactive, and effectively support the Dingwei front line, and reduce the pressure on the Dingwei defense line, you might as well talk about it, there are many people and there is a lot of power, maybe we can come up with some good way." ”

"General Lu, we have tens of thousands of horses in the forest, and the cavalry accounts for the majority, and the mobility surname is extremely strong, as long as the other party is not wolf running and dragon roaring, we can take the initiative to attack, defeat the opponent, go further into the grassland, and threaten the foundation of Bayar, I don't believe that Bayar can calmly attack the front line of Dingwei." Deng Ketao, general of the Shenwu Battalion of the Lu Division's cavalry, said loudly.

Lu Dalin clapped his hands and smiled: "You are right, but the marshal predicts that most of the people who will contain us at that time will be Huhe's wolf army, and the wolf army will have about 40,000 people, but they have the advantage in terms of troops." Besides, the meaning of the marshal was that he didn't want to have too many casualties, even if we could defeat the wolf army of Huhe, the marshal would never agree. ”

Deng Ketao said in embarrassment: "General Lu, this is difficult, if you want to defeat such a strong enemy without major casualties, this possibility is almost minimal." ”

"Let's wait and see! Generals, in the early stage of the war, Dingzhou's strategy was to hold the battle line steadily, with each fortified city as the center, to establish a defense center, to wear down the opponent's strength and patience, and the people who exceeded the defense center must retreat to Dingzhou City, in Dingzhou is nearly 100 miles away from the front line, the strong wall is clear, so that the barbarians can not find a single grain, can not find a little material to use. Lu Dalin said with a smile: "Dashuai said, we first exchange space for time and wait for the best time to appear." ”

"The best timing?" Many generals didn't quite understand when this was the best time, "General Lu, if the Wolf Ben Army cuts off the connection between us and Fuyuan, then our logistics supply will have problems." ”

"It is impossible to cut off completely." Lu Dalin said: "He can only be disturbed, small-scale disturbance can't do much effect, a large army attack, hehe, Hu He will be so stupid, he really dares to cut into the forest between me and Fuyuan, I don't mind with Fuyuan's Yang Yidao two to pinch the head and tail." ”

Lu Dalin looked at the walled houses that extended along Shanglinli City, but what he thought in his mind was Fuzhou Hailing, a mountain mover who was about to set off from Fuzhou Hailing, this was a big knife stabbed from the back of the barbarian, which would make the barbarian unable to care about each other. The plan to cross the west in Dingzhou was only known to the high-level and those who participated in the plan, and even these generals at all levels, who were even the generals, did not know that there was such a huge plan going on, which was also the reason why Li Qing strongly demanded that Dingzhou must take a defensive position in the early stage of the war.

Fuzhou, Hailing.

Compared with last year, Hailing has changed greatly, the entire Hailing Wharf has been requisitioned by the military, civilian merchant ships have had to find another place, and the sailor camp has expanded several times compared with the original.

Deng Pengyi stood on top of the brand-new flagship of 5,000 materials, looking down at the five 5,000 ships in the port, the left and right sides not far from him were splitting waves and cutting waves, and the farther ones stopped at the original civil wharf were chasing stars and chasing electricity, and there were more than 10 large ships of 3,000 materials, and the remaining various ships were densely packed with the entire port, although the dock had almost doubled in size, it still seemed very crowded.

The things that the marshal promised him are becoming a reality one by one, which makes Deng Peng grateful, and he has a kind of idea of dying for his confidant, having a powerful fleet has always been his dream, and now his dream has been realized, at most a year later, there are five 5,000 big ships launched, and the strength of the sailor at that time is unimaginable.

Since the sailor started a new stove and regained its strength, the pirates on some islands off the coast of Fuzhou either surrendered or took refuge in the depths of the ocean, anyway, they had to avoid the edge of the sailor from a distance, and there were a little two unruly bandits, who thought that they still had a few brushes in the naval battle under Deng Peng's strong blow, and what made Deng Peng even happier was that in these several suppression of bandits, he reshaped the military prestige of the naval division, improved the morale of the soldiers, and let a large number of recruits see blood and fire. Thus quickly completing the transition from rookie to veteran.

Jiang Heiniu's Jianrui battalion soldiers are methodically marching towards the big ships, these 5,000 people will be the first batch of people to cross the west, after them, Deng Peng will also transport the entire mountain-moving division to the control area of the Murowei people, the personnel are okay, but the massive amount of equipment and horses is a problem that makes people scratch their heads. They will be on the sea for at least a month, and it is really difficult to say how many of these war horses will make it to the ground alive.

Adjutant General Yin Hua hurriedly rushed to the top floor of the Fubo and saluted Deng Peng: "Commander, the marshal is about to arrive at the Sailor Wharf." ”

Deng Peng snorted, "Go, let the sons cheer up and prepare to meet the handsome!" Looking at the back of Yin Hua leaving in a hurry, Deng Peng felt a little emotion in his heart, since that incident, he finally had a knot in his heart for Yin Hua, and he could no longer return to the intimate relationship between the two in the past, and Yin Hua also obviously felt this, and became more and more respectful to himself, but the respect showed the alienation of the relationship between the two. In the past, Yin Hua often went to his house to eat, but now, it seems that there is no more, just a visit every New Year's Day. The two of them no longer talked about everything as before, but talked more about business.

Deng Peng sighed silently, that's fine! After returning to Dingzhou for so long, Deng Peng also has some understanding of some things within the Dingzhou Army, and Yin Hua's estrangement from himself may be in the hands of the core of the Dingzhou Army. However, Yin Hua is too close to the director of the Statistical Survey Department, although Deng Peng is square, but he is also an old man who has been through ups and downs for a long time, it is not a good thing that an army general is too close to the leader of the dark world in Dingzhou, maybe when it will bring him disaster, do you want to remind Yin Hua? Deng Peng thought about this problem while walking along the gangway to the deck, just at this moment, there were bursts of rapid horses' hooves and evasive shouts from the dock, looking at the rapidly approaching Li Zi flag, Deng Peng quickened his pace and put this problem behind him for the time being.

"See the big handsome!" On the wharf, the army was headed by the mountain wind, the sailor was headed by Deng Peng, a large number of generals clasped their fists and bowed, and the busy soldiers on the dock of the sailor also stopped what they were doing, turned to face the direction where Li Qing was, and respectfully saluted him.

In the midst of laughter, Li Qing turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hand to pick up the two generals, patted the shoulders of the mountain breeze, nodded, didn't say anything, but turned to face Deng Peng, pointed to the warship in the port, and said with a smile: "How is it?" My Commander Deng, are you still satisfied? ”

Deng Peng said to Li Qing excitedly: "Marshal, Deng Peng never thought that in his lifetime, he could command such a powerful fleet across the sea, chopping waves and cutting waves, all of this is given by the marshal, Deng will live up to the marshal's expectations, and will let the Dingzhou military flag fly on the ocean forever." ”

"Good!" Li Qing nodded appreciatively.

"Is everything ready?"

"Back to Dashuai, the logistics materials have been loaded yesterday, ready to go, half an hour later, General Jiang will all board the ship, and we will set sail." Deng Peng said.

"Ginger Black Bull!" Li Qing shouted.

Jiang Heiniu, who was standing behind the mountain wind, strode to the front, bowed and said, "Handsome, Hei Niu is here!" ”

"Do you have a clear mission for this trip?"

"Got it!"

"You are the striker, and we are also showing the military might to the Murwei people and raising my great Chu national strength, so your trip, one is to help Mingyan complete the pacification of the civil strife in Murwei, and the other is to make the Murwei people afraid of us, in order to achieve these two goals, I will equip you with the best Kai armor and the sharpest weapons, will you let me down?"

"Black Bull is willing to vouch for his head!"

Li Qing laughed, "What do I want your head?" You must complete these two tasks before most of the generals arrive, and I hope that the arrival of the generals will be the time when we and the Murowei coalition forces will attack the Green Ridge Pass. ”

"Rest assured! The end will be done! ”

"Go ahead!" Li Qing waved his hand.

Deng Peng led a general of the Dry Sailor Division and Jiang Heiniu to salute Li Qing and turned around to board the ship.

The horn sounded, and above the tall mast of the Fubo, the signalmen desperately waved the signal flag, giving a series of orders to the ships in the harbor.

Li Qing stood on the wharf, watching rows of heavily armed soldiers stand on the side of the third floor of the Fubo building, and as the Fubo slowly sailed away from the wharf, the ships in the harbor left Hailing one after another and headed for the far west.
