Chapter XXXIII. Preparations for Battle

"Xiao Qi, have you ever ridden a horse before?"

Qin Feiling asked questions while helping Lin Qi get on the horse.

"I've ridden it, but I've never ridden a horse to fight like this. ”

Lin Qi sat on the horse, adjusted the armor on his body, and stretched his hands and feet, but he felt strange no matter how he got it.

The current Lin Qi and Qin Feiling, located on a school field far away from Yanjing, are conducting a military exercise, which is also the first official command of the Liuli Pavilion since it was built.

Their opponent this time is the Dahua Forbidden Army, with a total of 2,000 cavalry, infantry and archers, led by Jiang Huihong, the commander of the Forbidden Army.

On the other hand, on the side of the Liuli Pavilion, it is all the characters of Qin Feiling's personal guards borrowed from others, plus the two hundred recruits who have undergone formal training but have not been on the battlefield, but there are only five hundred people when they are full, and even if they count the monks, there is only Lin Qi alone.

However, this is a battle that must be won, and what is after victory or defeat is more important than victory or defeat on the battlefield.

In fact, this is a battle, the result of the tacit understanding between Qin Feiling and Mu Xuanli.

The Dusk Snow Clan, represented by Mu Xuanli, although they hoped that Dahua could help them, also did not want to hand over the command of the troops, and it was better to hand over the troops to trustworthy people than to those Dahua generals who regarded foreign warriors as grass mustard as cannon fodder.

And Qin Feiling's side, on the one hand, is to prove the strength of his Liuli Pavilion to the entire court, so as to gain more right to speak, and logically let Emperor Yang support him, and then officially promote the inevitable war between Dahua and the grassland, and at the same time, it is also a reason to give the Dusk Snow Clan a reason, and a reason to really teach the Dusk Snow Clan warriors to himself!

Although these two brothers have been busy since they came to Yanjing, they haven't even had the opportunity to meet at all, and at present, this matter has not been passed in advance, but a tacit understanding like this only needs a signal, and the other party must be able to understand it.

Right next to the school grounds, a high platform was built here to facilitate the observation of the progress of the entire battle, and many scouts had already been sent in the distance to report the latest situation, and Emperor Yang was personally present to watch it today, which was enough to prove the importance of this battle.

The people who came with Emperor Yang, except for Zhang Xiao, who was regarded as a guard, were all important ministers and generals in the imperial court, and on the other side, they also invited the envoys from the Dusk Snow Clan and the Prairie People to watch in person, compared to the Twilight Snow Clan's knowledge, the Prairie People were obviously confused, and they didn't know the intentions of the Great Chinese at all, and when they saw the Twilight Snow Clan Mission, they were obviously stunned for a moment.

The whole battle will start on time after an hour, and so far, both sides are making final preparations.

In front of the tent, someone was talking to 500 sergeants, and all the sergeants had blue ribbons tied to their arms.

Behind the camp tent, Qin Feiling was entrusting Lin Qi, and at this time, a person slowly walked over to this side.

"Mr. Qin, you're almost ready!"

The person who spoke, named Meng Xianzhi, was an old man who had been following Qin Feiling's side earlier and forming Liuli Pavilion together, since the dissolution of Liuli Pavilion, Meng Xianzhi stayed away from his official career, returned to his hometown to marry a wife and have children, and had a small shop, but even those who were familiar with him did not know that Meng Xianzhi was actually a very powerful formationist!

Different from Qin Feiling, compared to defense, Meng Xianzhi is better at formation changes, likes to win more with less, and wins unchanged with change, all kinds of formations are memorized in the chest, the changes are ingenious and natural, and he is a rare talent, and this time I heard that the Liuli Pavilion was restarted, and the first one to rush back was Meng Xianzhi.

"Okay, dedication, with you helping me, we will definitely be able to return victorious. ”

"With Mr. Qin's command, I believe that our Liuli Pavilion will definitely be invincible! I have been waiting for this day for too long, I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I can still see this day coming!"

Seeing that Meng Xianzhidu was about to cry, Qin Feiling hurriedly patted him on the shoulder to show comfort.

"Okay, dedication, don't be in a hurry to be sentimental, you must know that this is just the first step for our glass pavilion to take off, and there are two thousand well-trained forbidden troops in front of us, don't be careless!"

"What about two thousand forbidden troops, even if there are two thousand, I'm not afraid!"

Seeing Meng Xianzhi's hesitant appearance, Qin Feiling just smiled slightly.

"Xianzhi, if you are given 2,000 men and horses, and the other party only has 500 people, you want to take the opponent's camp directly and capture the commanding generals, what do you want to do?"

"Since there is a numerical advantage, four times that of the enemy, of course choose to break through head-on, not to mention just capturing the generals, even if you want to completely annihilate the enemy army, what is the difficulty. ”

Meng Xianzhi thought that what he said was wonderful, but after finishing speaking, he suddenly realized that the current situation had just been reversed, and it suddenly became embarrassing for a while.

"Dedication, you are right, now in the only wilderness in the entire school field, the ups and downs are slow, and there is almost no place for ambushes, and if you want to rely on the terrain to resist the enemy, there is only one river, and above this river, there are two bridges in the north and south, I chose to camp in the upper reaches of the river, just to rely on this river to resist the enemy, so that the enemy can not play their own advantages, if you let you arrange, will you arrange if you arrange the army?"

Hearing Qin Feiling's words, Meng Xianzhi thought about it carefully, but his brows furrowed tightly.

"If there is only one bridge, I can gather all my forces in one place and strangle the enemy troops on our bridgehead, which can be slowly eaten, but if the other side divides the troops from the north and south and crosses the bridge from two places, then it will not be able to resist, but if we divide our own troops and block two bridges at the same time, we can't do it, it is really ...... It's a little difficult!"

Seeing that Meng Xianzhi was also stumped, Qin Feiling couldn't help laughing.

"Xianzhi, you can go, as long as you can do what you said, put away the bridge in front of you, then we can be invincible, and leave the rest to me!"

Meng Xianzhi obviously trusted Qin Feiling very much, although he didn't know what the other party wanted to do, he still took the order.

At this time, Qin Feiling turned back to face Lin Qi.

"Xiao Qi, you heard it, the burden on your shoulders is not easy, although you can't use spells this time, but I believe that you alone can definitely guard the North Bridge!"

Hearing Qin Feiling's words, Lin Qi nodded, but he was still a little hesitant.

"Sixth Master, can I really do it myself?"

Although Lin Qi was not afraid of the subsequent fight, he didn't understand the military conquest after all, and he was still afraid of causing trouble to Qin Feiling.

"Don't worry, I'm here!" As he spoke, Qin Feiling took out three bags from his body and handed them to Lin Qi, "Take it, wait until you get to the bridge, and when you see the enemy, open the red one, and wait for my signal for the rest!"

After listening to Qin Feiling's words, Lin Qi nodded, turned his horse, and headed north.

Looking at Lin Qi's somewhat clumsy back when he rode away, Qin Feiling smiled unconsciously.

"Finally, it's this point!"
