The thin man who is as cold as the mountain is dressed like snow silver silk chain armor in the sun and turns the white waves like sea waves, the crotch of the god horse stands firmly on the highest part of the hill like a white jiao, carrying the master to stand in the mountain wind, the man's deep sunken eyes in a pair of faint eyes can always make people feel a chill even in the hot summer, standing on the top of the mountain, the thin man looks around, the temperature around seems to have dropped a few degrees, several senior generals are silent and stand behind the thin man, waiting for the boss to speak。 Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Waving his hand to signal his subordinates to lift the parasol, the thin man's slightly squinted eyes were looking at the vast plains in the south, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, which made people's hearts open and open-minded, but the mountains in the southwest direction were slightly winding and circling, and a slight trace of blue and daisy was slightly revealed under the clouds at the edge of the sky.

The angular cheeks are full of weathered vicissitudes, but it is difficult to hide the arrogance and domineering behind the vicissitudes, as the commander of the southward campaign, Nick thinks that this time he is only afraid of the most unsmooth battle in his life, first the commander of the Second Corps, Hoffman's self-assertion in Pinglu, caused a catastrophe, resulting in the fiasco of the Second Corps, and then the elite of the three corps in Qinghe Mansion and Tanghe. The City Guard Corps experienced a tragic battle, although they successfully occupied Qinghe Mansion, but it bought time for the Tang River people to successfully deploy defenses in the southeast, and the battle to capture Qinghe Mansion also paid the price of blood on their side.

If you look at it from the perspective of tactical use and benefit acquisition, your battle to the south should be barely considered a success, seizing Yulin and Qinghe, and having fulfilled the initial wishes of the prime minister and the domestic nobles, as for Cangzhou Mansion, Nick does not think that now is the best time to seize there, it is not a wise move to force Situ Tai too tightly now, and the rabbit will bite people if he is in a hurry, not to mention that Situ Tai is more like a mad dog, and it is not cost-effective to be eaten by him.

However, strategically, Nick thought that this time the southward campaign was not successful, especially in Qinghe Mansion, which was dragged by the city guards of the Tanghe people, and was bitten by a heavy backlash, although the injury was not deep, but it was also a little painful. The entanglement battle in Qinghe delayed the best opportunity for his side to go west or south, and the Tang River people and the Taiping army successfully strengthened their defense during that time, losing the advantage of surprise attacks, and if they want to achieve greater results, they need to pay more price, Nick doesn't like that situation to happen, and he regrets losing the best strategic opportunity.

Now, however, it seems that something has changed. The change should have appeared after entering June, the more and more severe drought has endangered the entire northern part of the Eastern Continent, including their own country, they have been watching the daily weather changes with anxious eyes, if the weather turns cloudy, people's hearts seem to have to breathe a little easier, if it is a continuous sunny day, people's hearts will immediately hang, and this desire is becoming more and more obvious, more and more intense, and the heavens do not seem to understand the mood of its people, every day just dawns, the sun can't wait to crawl out of the east, pouring its infinite light and heat on this landRising temperatures have brought the region into the middle of summer ahead of schedule, and the lack of rain in the first month has completely dried up the rice fields in many areas, and grain failures seem inevitable.

Li Wufeng's harvest in the early stage not only allowed the northwest to obtain extremely rich grain reserves, but also attracted too many hostile eyes for him, when everyone was at a loss for the food problem, the grain reserves of the northwest provinces were full of grain, due to the lack of enough granaries, the northwest even piled up the grain in the wild, such an arrogant behavior made the eyes of those who lacked food melt the damn guy.

As soon as Yasuhara fell into the hands of the Northwesterners, he obtained an adequate supply of food, and the peasant tenants who were about to go crazy with hunger calmed down at lightning speed under the pacification of food, and the power of grain was enough to overwhelm all unstable factors, and the foundation of the Taiping Sect people in Anyuan for decades was quickly collapsed under the grain offensive, in order to get more food for their families, countless faithful Taiping followers betrayed their once respected upline and leaders at the first time, and the heads and blood of these people exchanged enough food and rewards for them, and this scene seemed to never happen but it was not unusual to play out everywhere, Li Wufeng's directorial Yasuhara's change of this scene is so clever that Nick has to admit that the other party is not only a successful military commander, but also a genius interpreter of political strategy and tactics, and he can always be one step ahead of his opponents in every move, but this step makes it impossible for anyone to catch up.

But Li Wufeng's appetite seems to be too big, and his digestion ability doesn't seem to be able to keep up with his devouring speed, only a few months after Kansai fell into his hands, he took down the entire county of Tiannan and took a Burmese land with him, can he really digest such a huge territory in a few years? Nick was full of suspicion about this, especially when the strategic ally in the south, who had always been restless, looked at the west with a watchful eye from time to time, and Nick decided that sooner or later, Li Wufeng's big move would get that ally to join the enclosure movement, and everyone seemed to understand this truth.

The outbreak of the Battle of Sanjiang was not expected by Nick, although Li Wufeng has not yet made a move, but Nick firmly believes that the protagonist of the Battle of Sanjiang has excluded its original master, and the only people who really decide the fate of Sanjiang are the Maqi Khans and the Northwest, who is the real ruler of the southern part of the Eastern Continent, and may not be revealed until the dust settles completely on this battle.

"Where has the Kamapov division left Pinglu gone?" the thin man, who had been on the hill for almost half an hour, finally asked the first sentence.

"Back to Dashuai, the Kamapov division has already traveled through Tianshui yesterday, and is now heading south at night, and it is estimated that it will arrive in Hanzhong tomorrow. One of the officers, presumably the head of the intelligence service, replied respectfully.

"Hmph, it seems that Li Wufeng can't hold on to the south, and he actually draws troops from Pinglu to the south. What is the movement of the nomadic cavalry on Indean's side?" the thin man snorted coldly and asked quietly.

"There has also begun to be an operation, the information obtained two days ago said that it has been assembled on the side of Indean, and it will return east as soon as the Indean garrison stationed by Li Wufeng enters and is handed over, but these nomadic cavalry are very fast, at most three to five days can cross the Tengger grassland in the Western Regions or the northern line into the northwest hinterland, if they want to enter the northern plains, enter the pass from Kuimenyu in the east of Lulong, and it will take three days to reach Pinglu. The intelligence officer nervously analyzed and calculated, and at the same time calculated what time it would be to arrive in the Pinglu area.

"Well, that means that entering the North Plains should be at least a week later, seven days a week, not long, not short, if you really want to use it well, you can do a lot of things. The thin man groaned, his slender fingers gently stroking under his jaw like a luthier, "What do you think about this?"

"Your Excellency, do you mean to take Pinglu?" Several senior generals behind the thin man all looked at each other, and finally Hurley cautiously spoke.

"Hmm, Hurley, what do you think? Do you have confidence?" Nick had a rare smile on his face, as if he was in a good mood, which was extremely rare, at least among the few senior generals behind him, as generals who had been subordinates of the opposing side for a long time, they could say that it was rare to see each other's smiles in years, even after a big victory.

"My lord, the combat effectiveness of the Northwest Army has been famous for a long time, but I am afraid that even the city guard corps of the Tanghe people may not be their opponents, and now although the Kamapov division of Pinglu Fuzhong has been transferred, there are still two infantry divisions and one heavy cavalry division, and there is also a division of Li Wufeng's Nanjieluo Regiment in Anyuan Mansion to the west, which can be reinforced at any time. There is also a division of the Northwest Army in Longdong to the south," Hurley licked his lips and explained: "Marshal, it's not that I, Hurley, am afraid of sacrifice, but my subordinates think it's worth spending such a price for a Pinglu Mansion?"

"Is it worth it? Of course it's worth it!" the thin man raised his voice slightly, and his eagle-like gaze swept over the faces of several generals behind him, "According to our intelligence, Pingyao Town in the west of Pinglu Mansion is Li Wufeng's important granary in Beiyuan, and during this period of time, our intelligence officers have recorded a large amount of grain trucks from Guanxi sending grain to Pingyao, which is estimated to be used to ensure that Anyuan and Pinglu Prefecture will be used to support this year. ”

"Food?!" Hurley seemed to understand a little, he had met the commander several times to summon the logistics officer, it should be related to the food problem, thinking of the drought in the entire Eastern Continent this year, Hurley was terrified, Qinghe Mansion concentrated such a huge army, logistics support was originally a big problem, and when the Tanghe people evacuated Qinghe, there didn't seem to be much food left in the city, and the supplies had to be transported from the country and North Terok in the past six months, could there be a problem in the middle?

"Commander, ;;;;;;" Hurley was about to say something, but was stopped by the boss waving his hand: "You don't have to think about other issues, I just want to hear the conclusions drawn from a purely military point of view." ”

"Well, if we can cut off the reinforcements from the west and attack with all our might, with the defense system of Pinglu Province, although the Northwest Army has made a lot of repairs, I believe we can overcome it!" Hurley raised his eyes to meet the commander's gentle gaze.
