The night wind jumped over the wall and blew through the grass and trees outside Yingzhao's study.

In this small courtyard, except for the Yingzhao couple and their children, the cook and the servants of the house, are not allowed to enter.

Even if there is some night wind in the courtyard, it will not be lively.

The grass and trees swayed in the wind, casting shadows on the window paper in the study.

The bamboo shadows are swaying, and the night breeze is also very cool.

The shadow in the room was even more frightened under the shaking bamboo shadow, and after being silent for a long time, he asked in a trembling voice: "This Lu Wu is really bold, and the big ones are boundless." ”。

Ying Zhao, who put down the teacup, got up, left the couch, walked to the bookshelf on the side, took out one of the scrolls casually, and looked at it aimlessly: "In all fairness, the third child's ability to manage interpersonal relations and appease the people, as well as the simultaneous development of the economy by industry, agriculture and business, is indeed good, far from being comparable to us. But in recent years, the official has become bigger and bigger, and his ambition has become bigger and bigger. Look at him, how much his selfish desires have swelled. ”。

Speaking of this, Ying Zhao's face flashed with anger and snorted heavily.

The dissatisfaction with Lu Wu's resolute attempt to persuade Xiao Shizhu to establish the prince was also fully manifested in this angry snort.

"The eldest brother has always treated him well, and he is still so selfish, it seems that the eldest brother is going to be chilled this time. After sighing lightly again, Ying'er hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Zhao, the eldest brother also has the grace of knowing our family. I don't think there's any need for the Ying family to follow him Lu Wu to wade into troubled waters. ”。

"I didn't want to care about it, let alone get involved. My ambition in life is to unify the ten continents and six seas of the underworld with my eldest brother, calm the darkness of this troubled world, and personally create a bright and just future with our hands. The Ying Zhao who put the scroll back in his hand said excitedly: "Let the ghosts and people in the world have support for the old, education for the young, support for the poor, help for the difficult, widows, widows, loneliness, and the disabled." Just doing these things has exhausted my mental strength, where is there any effort, accompany him Lu Wu to fight for the reserve. ”。

When Shadow heard this, she was relieved and relieved.

As long as Ying Zhao doesn't follow Lu Wu to fool around, this Ying family will definitely be able to stay out of this matter.

In this way, the shadow is content.

In this matter, she was reluctant to follow Lu Wu out of one nostril.

"It's just that after all, Lu Wu is still my third brother. Ying Zhao sighed, turned around and walked back to the couch, and after going up and sitting down, he frowned and said, "I'm just thinking about how to persuade Lu Wu." The eldest brother doesn't interfere in our family affairs, and he makes it seem as if he has more authority than the eldest brother, and such a move is nothing more than looking for death. As a brother, I have to pull him for the sake of affection. As a colleague, for the sake of his ability, I have to give him a hand. ”。

After that, there was another sigh, but pity filled the sigh.

"Why don't you just write what you think to Yingzhao. Anyway, if he can listen to it, he will naturally listen to it. The shadow, who had calmed down, picked up a citrus in the fruit bowl and peeled it slowly: "If you can't listen, you have already done your brotherly affection and pulled him Lu Wu, and he will have to thank you in the future." As for whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the future, it is all the cause and effect that he decides for himself, and you can be regarded as benevolent and righteous. ”。

Ying Zhao thought for a long time, nodded his head, and picked up his pen: "That's all it takes." ”。

With that, he picked up his pen and began to write on the blank stationery.

After a while, Yingzhao's reply letter can be regarded as written.

On this letter, every word is so casual and powerful. Every ghost word is extremely vigorous and powerful.

He stopped his pen and put the long pen back on the pen stand, and Ying'er handed the peeled citrus to Ying Zhao: "This is sent by your eldest niece Xiao Fuling a few days ago. She said that she planted it herself in her own palace, and I ate it very sweetly, so you can taste it. ”。

When Ying Zhao heard this, his eyes lit up, and he took the citrus and looked left and right: "Hehe, doesn't my niece like to dance with knives and guns now?

"Who knows, Poria is a child who is more like a big brother, more intelligent, and more inherited; He picked up a citrus shadow again, and said, "Maybe she won't be a knife and gun now, and she is obsessed with melon and fruit planting, and she can grow it very well; Could it be that the three heroes of Danshui have worn away the violent temper of Poria's niece?".

Ying Zhao chewed the citrus, it was really sweet, the juice was like honey, and there was no sourness.

After swallowing it, he laughed and said, "It's not necessarily grinding, it may be convergence." ”。

"I hope there aren't many people who have joined Lu Wu. Then, Ying Ying in the dim light smiled, and a solemn color appeared on his face: "In this way, Lu Wu will be lonely and unable to speak, and he will also retreat." ”。

Outside the house, the wind was blowing, and it was windy.

The strong wind in the mountains always drags on a long screech.

Under the bright night sky of the stars, the bamboo shadow reflected on the window paper is shaking again.

"The eldest brother hasn't cleaned up Lu Wu so far, maybe it's because he can't speak alone. We don't mess around with him, and how many officials dare to follow him to mess around. Ying Zhao paused, and then said, "Forget it, don't talk about him." ”。

After speaking, Ying Zhao had already finished eating the citrus in his hand, and began to fold the reply letter to Lu Wu slowly, and then put it in the envelope.

Ying Zhao's face couldn't help but show a little tiredness.

Dealing with these worldly things is more tiring than fighting on the battlefield, and it is easy to get emaciated.

Anyway, I have decided not to follow Lu Wu to mess around, and I have persuaded everything that should be persuaded, and the rest can only be the destiny of each other......

In the early morning, the cloudy sun rising in the west brought a trace of blood-red light to the earth, gradually breaking through the darkness brought by the night.

Between heaven and earth, it is getting brighter and brighter.

The rain on the side of Dushuo Mountain in Dongyingzhou also stopped temporarily, winning the first sunny day before the rainy season was completely over.

Months of heavy rain have made the nearby river water higher and stronger than before, and the ground is full of mud.

On Dushuo Mountain, the muddy places are also full of mud. All the fortifications and the rocks of the mountains that were exposed to the earth were damp.

There are even some houses and barracks, which are still dripping water.

Although the rainy season is not completely over, from today onwards, there will be no more continuous rainstorms in Dongyingzhou for more than half a year.

The attack of the Nine Shadows Kingdom is about to continue.

And the first to set off is Yingling Xing.

And he had made all the preparations, and the fleet sailors mobilized for him also entered the port of Shangshan yesterday, and began to carry the sergeants under the command of Ying Lingxing and the materials needed for the battle one by one.

Soon, Ying Lingxing and his army will be transported to their destination.

With the morning light, Ying Lingxing also went down the mountain and boarded the warship on the harbor ready to go.

King Yama and Haruhan made their way to the harbor, watching several warships and supply ships, and after the transport ships left the harbor, they turned back to the mountains.

What Gonggong mobilized for Yingling Star was the fleet of sailors under Gongyuan's command.

And Gongyuan was also ordered to personally lead the team, responsible for attacking Liubo from the sea together with Ying Lingxing.

Ying Lingxing is riding on the flagship of Gongyuan.

This is a brand-new iron dragon ship, with double iron anchors and double rudders, which also allows this iron dragon ship to turn at will.

The twenty large mine-flying vehicles, a hundred air cavalry, and a hundred flying troops on the warship were ready for battle, and could take off from the spacious deck one after another at any time to strike any target from the air.

After the flagship departed, Ying Lingxing entered the cabin from the spacious deck and entered the cabin of Gongyuan.

In the cabin far away from the waves and the sound of the sea wind, Zhu Hai, the overseer of Gongyuan and Yingling Star, was already waiting in the cabin.

This operation, with Ying Ling Xing as the center, this mighty Nine Shadows Fleet sailing on the sea, at this time, must be headed by Ying Ling Xing, and he will be the head of the horse.

Although Gongyuan's official rank is not a star and a half higher than Ying Lingxing, but now in this war, he has to listen to Ying Lingxing's command.

However, although Ying Lingxing, a young general, is very high-spirited today, he is still so respectful to his elders. As soon as he entered the cabin, he saluted Gongyuan and Zhu Hai first, and he was respectful.

"Lieutenant Ying, don't be polite. The three ghosts sat down in the cabin, on the edge of the round table in the middle, and Gongyuan poured a cup of tea for Ying Lingxing.

The chair that Gongyuan had prepared for Ying Lingxing to sit on was wide, flat and rectangular, so that his four hooves could be bent and he would kneel on it.

Ying Lingxing was ready, so he took the teacup, took a sip of tea first, and moistened his throat.

In the stormy seas, the warship sailed smoothly, and the cabin was also very stable and stable.

"I have carefully watched the tactics of Lieutenant Ying. Zhu Hai raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, stroked his beard under his chin, and squinted and smiled: "Although it is a little tricky and weird, it is not a surprise way to play." It's just that according to the intelligence, on this Liubo Island, when the Northern Yin Dynasty gave up, it left nearly 300 ghost cannons, which can still pose a great threat to our army. ”。

This information came from the king of Yama and was one of the pieces of information provided by the Xuanjiao to the king of Yama. However, King Yama considered that Ying Lingxing and Zhu Hai had to get this information when they went on an expedition, so he asked the Yuque Palace.

After receiving the reply, Zhu Hai and Ying Lingxing were also informed.

Including, of course, the common abyss responsible for supporting them at sea.

"Lord Zhu don't have to worry, this place is a long and narrow island, and the northeast and southwest are even narrower, no matter who goes up to line up and arranges troops, it is impossible to use long-range artillery fire and air troops to cover all aspects of this terrain like our army. Before Ying Lingxing could speak, Gongyuan beside Zhu Hai looked at the map on the table in front of him and said: "These Xuandi Army and Xudu Army abandoned by the Northern Yin Dynasty can only set up a long snake formation on the island. ”。

That map is a detailed map of Ruba Island. Mountains, rivers, ponds, etc., are clear at a glance.

The Liubo Island on the map has indeed become a slender willow leaf, floating on the Qinglong Sea and floating in the coastal waters west of Dongyingzhou.

"That's right, and such a formation, except for the center, is full of weaknesses. Ying Lingxing took over and said, "The juniors are not afraid of the ghost cannon on such terrain. Not to mention 300 gates, even 3,000 gates, cannot be gathered, and the firepower is scattered and has no power; it is to hit the east side, and it cannot take care of the west side. ”。

Everyone knows that the Netherworld Ghost Cannon of the Northern Yin Dynasty is just a cannonball with great karmic power.

The range and rate of fire are far inferior to any type of artillery in the Nine Shadows Kingdom. The handling speed is like a turtle crawling.

Therefore, Ying Lingxing's analysis is in one sentence.

Zhu Hai thought about it for a while, and felt that it made sense. This made it difficult for the three hundred ghost cannons to coordinate on this island.

It is rare for this Ying Lingxing to have such a war insight at a young age, but after thinking about it, Zhu Hai's heart was filled with admiration.

"In fact, all you need is air forces to take the lead in destroying the island's batteries with air strikes. Ying Lingxing paused, took a sip of tea, and said: "With the opinion of a young general, what can contain our army and make us unable to fight quickly is the thirty Tianbao warships left on the island, as well as the Beiyin fleet left by the Beiyin Dynasty in the harbor more than seventy miles away. ”。

Gongyuan only brought two iron dragon fleets, and the remaining transport ships and supply ships were not very combative.

The two Iron Dragon fleets, with only dozens of warships, plus the army under Ying Lingxing, were more than enough to deal with the hundreds of thousands of abandoned Xuandi Army and Xudu Army of the Northern Yin Dynasty on Liubo Island.

I am afraid that the enemy troops on the west coast will come to intervene on the side of the strait.

The fleet over there is not thirty ships, but hundreds of large warships.

This is one of the troubles left by Emperor Xudu to Xiao Shizhu.

"I had to do it quickly. After Zhu Hai also frowned, he raised his hand and scratched the thick eyebrows that were a little itchy on his left eye: "The purpose of this battle is to open the sea passage for the deputy governor of Gongyuan and prepare for the northern expedition of the marshal of Yama. ”。

And this worry, Ying Lingxing did not explain it in terms of tactics and plans, which made Zhu Hai and Gongyuan a little overwhelmed for a while.

However, Ying Lingxing did not explain, but there was a reason.

The reason why he didn't say it was because he was afraid that the wall would have ears and leak the secret.

It's just that he has done this confidential work at home, and he even hides his helpers.

After a while, Zhu Hai suddenly thought of a way, hurriedly leaned forward slightly, and said, "Two, I have a note." Since we want to attack quickly, not only our marching speed should be fast, but we can also learn from the tactics of the lord who attacked Sanxing Island at night and attacked at night. In this way, the gods unknowingly entered the waters of Liubo Island and attacked the island at night, so that the enemy could not send a letter for help even if he wanted to contain us. ”。

"Lord Zhu Hai is far-sighted, and the younger generation thinks so. Ying Lingxing and Zhu Hai hit it off, this is exactly the plan that Ying Lingxing prepared; when the two ghosts looked at each other, they looked at each other and smiled, and Ying Lingxing said: "But the junior has another suggestion, it is best to enter the sea area west of Liubo Island tonight." In this way, we attacked in the west, and the enemy's reinforcements could only come east, and although the strait between the island and the west coast was only seventy miles wide, the sea was vast, and seventy miles was not a small number. The waves of this strait have become able to contain the speed of the enemy's fleet, even if they want to rush, they will either have to bypass the strait islands. Either the infantry landing on the east bank of the island will inevitably have no advantage in warships, and the soldiers who land on the island will inevitably become the target of our army's artillery fire and air attacks. ”。

Ying Lingxing, who finished speaking, also leaned forward, raised the tip of his right index finger, and gently drew an arc on the map on the table, the sea area on the south coast of Liubo Island.

This arc follows the south shore of Liubo Island to the northwest, all the way to the middle of the sea area on the west coast of Liubo Island on the map.

This route is the route that Ying Lingxing told Gongyuan that it needs to be detoured.

After Gong Yuan took a closer look, the navigation route drawn by Ying Lingxing for him was hundreds of miles more than the navigation route he originally set.

On the vast sea, these hundreds of miles of sea are not short.
