Therefore, Sima Zhongping still adopted an honest in-depth defense system, taking advantage of natural terrain such as mountains and rivers, relying on several dangerous fortified city hubs, forming several circular defense lines.

In this way, even if the navy is completely destroyed and the enemy fully lands, it will not be able to directly break through his defense line, as long as there is sufficient logistical support and grain and grass reserves, he and his Yizhou guard can ensure that Yizhou will never fall.

Even if the other party has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, it will not work!

He can even use trapping to restrain the opponent's military horses here......

These are not the conclusions that he Sima Zhongping talked about on paper, but with Zhuge Xiaosheng, Dugulou, Wanyan Pingqiu, Lin Yue and others after full argumentation, as well as countless conclusions deduced from this sand table.

And defense in depth is only the last resort, more often, Yizhou Wei will take the initiative to attack and cooperate with the fleet to fight. If there is a war with Da Zhou in the future, without waiting for the opponent's troops and horses to approach, his Yizhou guard will take the first step and directly attack Minzhou County! Of course, it's the same with Dongying......

Although the Duke of Saladin came to the sand, it also aroused Sima Zhongping's extreme attention, since Saladin can come, other Western fleets can naturally come, so Yizhou currently has a total of three imaginary enemies, Dongying, Da Zhou, and Westerners.

As for Rus and Southern Xinjiang, it was not in his consideration, because there was Yanyun County in the north, Gaojuli, Yunzhou in the south, and the dear Lord of the Southern Xinjiang Alliance, Prince Uerman......

Sima Zhongping was good at land warfare, mountain and forest warfare, but he was not good at naval warfare, so he could not concurrently serve as a naval general.

Besides, the current navy and the Yanyun army are not the same system, although they can cooperate in combat, but they are not subordinate to each other, so far, there are few people in the entire Yanyun County who can serve as both a naval general and an army general.

And Yizhou is obviously very important, so the fleet general must also be a general who can take charge of himself.

Yibu is okay, but he is now the general of Xiao Zihao, and Dugulou doesn't want to hand over Xiao Zihao to others, because in his opinion, Xiao Chen is more important than Yizhou.

Zuoshan Geji can also do it, but after all, he is a native of Dongying, and he used to be under the command of Nanchen Zhongtian, the dragon king of the sea, if he is the general of the Yizhou fleet, they will not get along well with Ren Bijiang, and unnecessary contradictions may be rubbed......

Then the most suitable candidate is Cheng Pingyuan, he was originally born as a sailor in Yizhou, and he knows a lot about the waters of Yizhou, and his performance in Lingzhou in the past two years has also been extremely good.

Now that Lingzhou and Yunzhou have merged, and with Yunzhou General Wu Hanming here, he can also get out.

For this reason, Xiao Chen also deliberately asked Ling'er's opinion, after all, Ling'er is Cheng Pingyuan's boss.

Ling'er is still very puzzled, you go to him about this, ask me what are you doing?

You ask me that, can I disagree? He listens to me, but don't I have to listen to you?

So he must listen to you, you respect his opinion, and I respect his opinion, so brother, you should ask him directly, if you ask me like this, it is a superfluous move, and there is no need at all.

In fact, it is still necessary, because after Cheng Pingyuan came, he first asked Ling'er for her opinion, and Ling'er was a little depressed, what are you asking me for?

If you want to do it, you can do it, if you can do it, you should do it, this is still my brother trusts you, you should also know how important General Yizhou Wei is, right?

There are more than 200 warships alone, but there are more than our Lingzhou. In the future, you will directly obey Mr. Dugu and the boss, don't come to me for anything, as if I Ling'er is doing some kind of party in Yanyun, and people have no intention of rebelling, isn't it easy for others to misunderstand by doing this?

You have to remember one thing, we are a family, my brother and I are also a family, so we are all a family, and we will never be separated from each other in the future, you know?

Don't always say anything about the old department of Yunnan Hou, then Sima Zhongping is still the old department of the Tianxuan Society, what does he have to ask the chief helmsman Xiao Xinghan to do?

When you were in Yizhou before, you could only listen to the chief helmsman, can you still ask me for everything?

Cheng Pingyuan said in his heart that we all listened to you before, but you left us and ran to Yanyun County and never went back, how can we ask you for advice thousands of miles away?

And at that time, we actually all thought of you as a little girl who didn't know anything about the world, and it wasn't until that time that you took us away that we knew that you were a responsible person......

But we still listen to the little county lord you, since you say so, we will do so in the future, but the old department of Yunnan Hou will always exist, and when your little county lord restores the title of Marquis of Yunnan, we will still be your old subordinates, and we will definitely follow you to Dianzhou County......

I don't know when we will attack Da Zhou, little county lord? We are no more powerful now than before!

Ling'er was taken aback when she heard this, you Cheng Pingyuan, don't mess around, brother, their strategy for Da Zhou is very complicated, as for how complicated it is, I don't know much about it......

In short, after you become the general of the Yizhou fleet, you must not act rashly, and you are not allowed to provoke Da Zhou without the orders of Mr. Dugu and his brother.

Therefore, Ling'er may be quite confused in small things, but it is very clear in major matters! Cheng Pingyuan said that I didn't even become a little county lord, you are a child, why do you still treat me as a child? I'm just asking you in a hurry, how can I mess around?

If I were so reckless, our boss wouldn't let me be the general of the Yizhou fleet!

By the way, I brought chocolate to the little princess, but I didn't dare to bring more, for fear that the road would melt......

The Xuanyi guard of Fengyang City sent news that Lin Dongyang had been convicted of a capital crime after being tried in three halls, and the emperor was gracious, and the crime was reduced by one degree, and finally sentenced to behead the prisoner.

In today's parlance, it is equivalent to a death sentence with a two-year reprieve.

Although all the family property was confiscated, but there was no family member, all of them were released after the case was closed, although it was not a crime, but the situation was also very bleak, and at present, he rented a small house on Ningyuan Street to live, and dozens of families lived on pawn clothes and jewelry.

Yang Fenger was not implicated in the crime, but the situation was naturally extremely embarrassing, and she herself was not lightly frightened, and she fell seriously ill because of it.

Because although Lin Dongyang's entire case has been closed, no one knows if anyone will continue to be involved in his other crimes?

He is now only one step away from killing his head, and a small thing could kill him!

However, he didn't suffer much in the edict, at least not as miserable as Chen Jisheng at the beginning, and Zhu Xiaochuan, the governor of Jinyi Guard, would take care of it more or less in the old days.

But I don't dare to take care of it too much, after all, in this situation, no one dares to easily contaminate this person, for fear of getting into trouble!

In short, Lin Dongyang's matter is quite interesting, except for the impeachment of several officials and imperial histories of his speech, none of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty sent charcoal to protect him in the snow, but none of them fell into the well to follow him...... This in itself is very abnormal.
