"The troops that the imperial court has replenished to us are headed south by the commander of the new Wanhu. Count the time. Within ten days, you should be able to get to Yacheng. ”

Wan Yanxian leaned slightly to the right, leaned his elbows on the armrests of the Taishi chair, and raised his head to Jin Ruiyun and said.

"Wanhu is Hou Wancheng." Puguli Tiger's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice.

"It's him."

Jin Ruiyun first raised his eyebrows, and then showed joy.

Since the founding of the country, Mengyuan has been engaged in foreign wars. The power grew rapidly, and it became a powerful state that threatened the behemoth of Chu.

There are hundreds of thousands of households in the standing army, dozens of generals, and most of them are 10,000 enemies.

Many of them were born into the aristocracy.

For example, after Jin Huanshan and Jin Ruiyun are clans, Wanyan Xian and Pu Guli are all prominent surnames of Mengyuan.

But there are also some 10,000 households who are from the bottom. A tough guy who has been killed step by step from the ranks.

Hou Wancheng is one of them. He is resolute, courageous, and ambitious, and is a powerful character among thousands of households.

"I'm relieved. When Hou Wancheng arrives in Yacheng, the cooperation of the four of us will definitely be able to contain Wu Nian. Jin Ruiyun exhaled, and his mood was much lighter.

The new Wanhu came down, and the Mengyuan soldiers who were damaged in the battle were also replenished.

And Wu Nian has just laid down three county seats, and he also needs time to rest.

After finishing the three thousand households of Yan Xian, Puguli, and Jin Ruiyun, they settled down in Licheng with peace of mind, pacified the soldiers, and restored their morale.

Eight days later.

Wanhu Hou Wancheng led the Mengyuan soldiers under his command, as well as the Mengyuan soldiers allocated by the Mengyuan court as a supplement to the three Wanhu lost troops, and arrived at Yacheng.

Hou Wancheng handed over trivial matters to the commanders under his command, and he only took a small number of personal soldiers into Licheng and came to Puguli's mansion.

In the hall.

Pu Guli, Wan Yanxian, and Jin Ruiyun stood up and saluted Hou Wancheng, who entered the hall, "General Hou." ”

"Generals." Hou Wancheng calmly returned the salute to the three of them one by one, and then came to the left position and sat down.

He is Chinese New Year's Eve and has a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, his face is full of perseverance, and he is tall and strong.

"Generals. The court asked me to send it to replenish your soldiers. Wait a minute, you send someone to receive it. ”

"I'm a rough guy and I won't be polite. Just go straight in. We have to find a way to contain Wu Nian. ”

"And on the way, I already had some ideas."

"General Pu. Can someone bring a map or a desk? ”

Speaking of this, Hou Wancheng looked up at Puguli and said in a deep voice.

"Someone. Go get your desk and map. Puguri nodded, raised his head and shouted towards the gate.

Soon after. Three of Puguli's soldiers walked in from outside, two of them brought a black desk, and one of them held a silk landscape map in his hand.

The landscape map unfolded and spread out on the desk.

The four 10,000 households stood up together and gathered around the desk, all of them bent down and bowed their heads, looking at the map with a serious face.

"Generals. At present, the three county towns occupied by Wu Nian are all located in the deep mountains and old forests. Easy to defend and difficult to attack. And with the character of the Liaodong Tiger, he will definitely expand the land outward. ”

"There are only three paths he can take."

"The first is to annex the remaining county seat of Yingqingfu to the north and integrate Yingqingfu."

"The second is to attack Guangyang Mansion to the east."

"The third is to attack Guangchuan Province to the south."

Speaking of this, Hou Wancheng raised his head and glanced at Wan Yanxian and the three of them, and all three of them nodded together.

Jiangxian County is located in the deep mountains and old forests in the central part of Liaodong, and can be used as a breakthrough point in the southeast, northwest and northwest. But Wu Nian will only not attack to the west, and the army of Xiong Wu and Chunyuan is holding each other.

If Wu Nian attacked to the west, he would definitely be pressed to the ground and beaten by Chunyuan.

In other words, Wu Nian's route to attack outwards is only left with these three roads.

"The six county towns of Yingqing Mansion have similar terrain, and all of them are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If Wu Nian integrates Yingqing Mansion, he can fight steadily. Wu Nian should correspond to the remaining cities of Qingfu, salivating. ”

"Comparatively. If Wu Nian attacks Quang Duong Province. At the junction of Gwangyang Province and Goguryeo, the situation is much more complicated. ”

"If Wu Nian attacks Gwangcheon Province in the south, he can get the port. First, he can solve the problem of salt and directly boil the sea to make salt. Second, he could build ships, liaise with the state of Chu, and obtain supplies. ”

"If I were Wu Nian. I chose to go north and occupy the entire Yingqing Mansion. Or attack Gwangcheon Province to the south and gain the sea. ”

Jin Ruiyun bent down and looked at the map, put his right index finger and middle finger together, and dotted in the north and south directions on the map.

"Yes. Also wrong. Hou Wancheng shook his head and said.

"Oh. General Hou thinks I'm wrong? Jin Ruiyun was good-tempered, and he didn't get angry when he heard the words, but asked very kindly.

"Wu Nian used soldiers. Good at surprise, sound east and west. We think he could be expanding outward from the north and south. If we loosen the defense of Dongfang Guangyang Mansion, he may see a needle. Attack Quang Duong Province. ”

"North, South, East. In these three directions, we must not let our guard down. ”

"We all have to be on guard."

Hou Wancheng's big eyes flashed with essence, and his face showed a cautious look. He did not fight Wu Nian, but he studied Wu Nian.

Letting down your guard against the Liaodong Tigers is tantamount to committing suicide.

At present, the four thousand households of them do not have the strength to attack the vast mountain and forest area composed of the three county towns of Jiangxian, Dingxian, and Yuanxian, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Only each of them can hold one side and block the road of Wu Nian's expansion.

Wait for the first line of Shanhaiguan. Xiong Wuself and Chunyuan have won or lost, and ten thousand households can work together to launch a thunderous blow and completely eliminate Wu Nian.

Before that, they couldn't let Wu Nian step out of their own territory and expand their power at once.

"What General Hou said makes sense." Wan Yanxian thought about it for a while, he and the others fought with Wu Nian, obviously with an advantage in troops, but they were repeatedly defeated by Wu Nian, and finally raised a tiger.

Wu Nian relied on the mountains and fought guerrilla attacks by surprise, which was really powerful.

I really can't let my guard down at all.

"So. General Wanyan, General Kim. You first reorganize your team in Licheng, and then go back to Guangyang Mansion to guard it. ”

"General Pu. You lead your ten thousand households, ten thousand Han people, entrenched in Yacheng. ”

"I led my troops to Guangchuan Mansion, built passes and cottages, and sent troops to deploy defenses."

"We work together and connect with each other. Only in this way can Wu Nian be trapped in the quagmire composed of the three cities of Jiang County, Ding County, and Yuan County. ”

"Can't let him out. When he comes out, he's a flying dragon. ”

Hou Wancheng raised his head, looked at the three thousand households, his face was extremely solemn, and said in a deep voice.

"Hmm."

The three 10,000 households did not hesitate too much, and nodded in unison.
