Chapter 156: Departure
"What do you mean by that?" Qiushui said in amazement. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Emperor Yan glanced at Ma Liang, and Ma Liang stood up and explained to Qiushui and the others: "In addition to the Northeast Battlefield, which has been completely wiped out, the rebels have a total of four main forces, including the southern troops that were greatly damaged by the previous blows. According to reliable information from the front, the other three troops have withdrawn from the battlefield and are rapidly moving north, and according to the current situation, the enemy is likely to concentrate his forces and engage our troops in the final confrontation. ”
"Fighting a war consumes a lot of resources. Although the rebels were powerful, they lacked food reserves after all, and with the failure of the siege tactics, their situation was not as rosy as it began. As long as they can't capture Yancheng in one day, they will have to consume one more day of military rations, so that we can defeat the rebels without spending a single soldier. It is estimated that it is precisely because of this realization that they changed their strategy again and wanted to fight against the water. Haodong added on the side.
Qiushui nodded, and soon understood what they meant. The Yancheng warehouse is rich in reserves, and it doesn't matter if it takes another year with the rebels. However, the rebels revolted temporarily, and they simply did not have so many reserves, which led them to face a cruel reality, either to quickly capture Yancheng, or to wait until they ran out of ammunition and food, and failed to attack themselves. Although Zhu Jue doesn't know much about the current situation, he is also a graduate of a prestigious university, and they understand it as soon as they say it.
"What are your plans, my lord?" Qiushui immediately regretted as soon as he asked. After all, he is only a member of the Rain Army's special operations team, not even the team leader, and some things are not his turn to take care of at all. Fortunately, Emperor Yan didn't mind, but stroked his red beard with his hand, and said righteously: "Naturally, I can't sit still, I have passed on the order, and the strength of all the armies will move quickly to the northern front, this time we must give these traitors some color!"
"Your Excellency is mighty. But there is one thing that the minister doesn't know whether to talk about or not. Ma Liang suddenly stood up and said to Emperor Yan.
"Don't grind, just say what you have to say. Emperor Yan waved his hand.
"Do you need to think about the matter of the adults going out with the army? After all, the adults are in Yancheng, and the people here can feel at ease. Coupled with the danger of the battlefield, although the adults are brave and good at fighting, invincible, but in case something goes wrong......." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Emperor Yan.
"Everything else can be discussed, but this is the only one that I have made up my mind not to mention again. As for the defense of Yancheng, I have ordered the Fourth Army in the south to garrison Yancheng, and I believe that they will arrive in a few days. At that time, even if the rebels want to sneak attack from the rear, it will not be so easy. Emperor Yan's tone was very resolute, and Ma Liang said no more. It was the first time Qiushui had heard about this, and he was secretly surprised in his heart. Although Emperor Yan will inevitably improve morale when he goes out with the army, as Ma Liang said, if there is a mistake, the loss to the entire Yan army will be too great. But if you think about it, it's understandable. For Emperor Yan, his own brother rebelled and wanted to seize the throne in his hands, and he must have felt uncomfortable. What's more, he personally let go of Ye Peng in the first place, and the causal cycle, he also has an unshirkable responsibility for this rebellion. If the many factors are combined, how can we solve the problem if we do not confront each other? Even if the rebellion is put down, how can the knot in the heart be opened?
"It's okay, there are many strong people in the rebel army, and the leader Ye Peng is even more unfathomable, if there is Emperor Yan in charge, at least he will have more confidence. However, I suggest that the army of Yancheng should rush to the front line in two groups, in case the rebels set up an ambush halfway, it is better to have a front and rear response. Haodong suggested on the side.
"Well, you have a point. In this way, you will first lead the rain army to the front line to join the war dragons and them, and feel the bottom of the rebels. As soon as the Fourth Army arrived at Yancheng, Ma Liang and I immediately led the Third Army to the battlefield and fought the rebels to the death. Emperor Yan agreed. In this way, after the meeting of the day, Haodong issued an order to prepare the whole army. After a few days of rest, the soldiers' state has reached their peak, and this time the destination is located in the Manchester City area, which is located south of the Mo River and north of Yancheng, less than 800 miles away from here. It was the headquarters of the rebels and the largest battlefield to date.
"Hey, you haven't had a few days to spare, are you going to march again? Cao Ming sank into the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, and said leisurely there.
"That's it. Yan Boshu took a sip of the local fire dragon tea, only to see a white mist rising from the cup, and a rich fragrance of tea wafted through the hut.
"I said, you two cheer me up!" Two punches were slammed, and suddenly Cao Ming and Yan Boshu had two more swollen bags on their heads. Lin Lin looked at these two unsuccessful guys, sighed and shook his head, pushed the door and went out, leaving only a word of advice, telling them to pack their luggage quickly, so as not to lose them when they get it.
"I said, do you think this girl is becoming more and more like a housekeeper?" As soon as Lin Lin went out, Cao Ming complained to Yan Boshu. "Hey, what's wrong with your face, are you pumping? Don't make faces at me, it's weird enough. Ah, Lin Lin, when are you coming back again?"
In this way, Cao Ming had another big bag on his head. However, after coming back, Qiushui behaved a little strangely, and always felt as if he was deliberately avoiding Lin Lin. Of course, it may just be that Lin Lin herself is too sensitive, but once the two were alone, she asked Qiushui, when they were tied to the cross, Qiushui said that if they could go back alive, what would happen? As a result, Qiushui's face suddenly became redder than a persimmon, and he hurriedly found an excuse and ran away, which was really very different from him usually. On the other hand, since Zhu Jue was reborn, his whole person seems to be full of energy, wandering around when he has nothing to do, and showing off in front of others from time to time, which will attract bursts of cheers every time. However, it is understandable that if a poor person suddenly becomes a millionaire, he will inevitably experience many things that he once dreamed of. It's just that in this way, he temporarily put the idea of wanting to go back to his mind.
In this way, two days later, Haodong led the troops of the Yu Army to leave Yancheng and set off on the front line in a mighty manner. Everyone in the army looked serious, and they knew that the war they were about to face would be far greater in scale and brutality than any previous battle. They also understand that most of the people here may never have the chance to return to the Rain Country. But so what?
"Fight for honor!" Haodong shouted with his arms raised. This was followed by a roar like a tidal wave: "Fight for honor!"
