Chapter 5: The Return of the Sparrow (5)
Yeluyun arrived half a day after Jinghe's return, Hu Ling's accident made him feel unprecedented pressure, the death of the dignified Xixiang in the battle with the demons will undoubtedly have a far-reaching impact on the future negotiations, but the matter has come to this, there is only one choice in front of him - to fight the demons with all his might, use the power of the Mingyuan clan to play a powerful role, and use the merits to erase the negative effects of the death of the Xixiang, if Mingyuantian is reborn because of the demons, even the greatest anger will be extinguished.
In order to achieve the goal, the cooperation with Quening is the top priority, and in any case, it is necessary to firmly grasp the heart of southern Xinjiang.
Coincidentally, Ji Huanting also took the first batch of assembled Mingyuan clan troops into the harbor of Ziyangping.
Jing He had already told Yeluyun about Que Ning's return, so he was not surprised to see the beautiful Que Ning in addition to being amazed, but he had a trace of emotion, this beautiful figure carrying thousands of hopes was becoming more and more domineering.
"Beautiful Nansang-sama, we're here." The laughter dissolved the uneasiness in the air, and the haze caused by Hu Ling's death seemed to fade between the smiles, and many people breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's hard work to come from afar."
Que Ning didn't mention a word about the death of Xixiang, which made Yeluyun very moved in his heart, although he didn't do it personally, but forcing Xixiang to death is a major event in the heavenly realm, if it weren't for the demon army's rebellion, I'm afraid this one thing alone would have caused a sensation in the heavenly realm.
"Hello everyone!"
Yeluyun nodded to the four marshals, and received the same salute in return.
After the ceremony, everyone took their seats, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the tension of the pre-war also seeped into the air, and everyone knew that a huge and protracted military operation was about to be carried out. Que Ning also quickly brought the topic to the topic, pointing to the new map and said: "This is a map drawn according to the latest intelligence, this red area is the demon occupied area, this is the control area of us and Yeluyun, the western and northern frontiers remain unchanged, and the eastern frontier has been affected somewhat due to the fire, but the overall area remains unchanged."
Seeing that two-thirds of the territory of southern Xinjiang deliberately used red, everyone was embarrassed, not long ago they were still looking at each other across the water, and in a blink of an eye, a large area of territory disappeared, the situation changed much faster than everyone imagined, that red was like the blood smeared on the blade of the demon, crimson and dazzling.
Yeluyun stared at the map, he didn't know how many changes he had, but according to the habits of the demon army, he could roughly guess some, and what he paid the most attention to was the two red arrows stretched out from Nanxiangcheng, which were quite eye-catching.
"The Demon Clan is attacking Heavenly Court and Eastern Frontier at the same time?"
"Hmm! That's the news for the time being."
"There must be a feint, right? There is no reason why the demon army should not attack the Heavenly Court, unless they don't know the terrain of Ming Yuantian." Yeluyun asked.
Que Ning shook his head, pointed to the red arrow pointing to the eastern frontier and said: "The prestige of the two roads is extremely huge, no matter which way you look at it, it doesn't look like a feint, after all, the demon army wins by numbers, and the hundreds of thousands of troops are mighty and murderous."
"That's just as well!"
"If the spies are not wrong, there are at least three million demons on the east road to attack the eastern frontier, the number is very large, even if it is squeezed, it can be squeezed into the eastern frontier, at this time the situation in the eastern frontier is quite dangerous, many heavenly soldiers were burned to death in the previous chaos, and then many were killed in the reinforcement of the southern phase city, and now the stalemate with the demon army depends on the new army that has just been formed, and the reinforcements of the northern prime minister have also given the demons a lot of pressure, if the demon army continues to increase its troops, the consequences are unpredictable."
Jing He asked in astonishment, "Dongjiang is the main force, so is it a feint to enter the Heavenly Court from the north?"
"If a million demons are a feint, I can agree with that." Que Ning smiled lightly, and her beautiful and gentle smile did not match her cold tone.
A million feints! All the heavenly handsome generals smiled bitterly and shook their heads, only a large number of demon armies can do this, so many demons, even if they kill one by one, they can exhaust a group of people.
Ji Huanting suddenly interjected and asked, "Three million went to the Eastern Frontier, and more than one million went to the Heavenly Court, in other words, the main force of the demon army has left the southern Xinjiang, and the demon army in that red area is about to be drained?"
Que Ning looked at her in amazement and approvingly, and the beautiful ghost girl also had the wisdom to be worthy of a man, which made her quite happy.
"Hmm! The demon army has deployed troops on a large scale, and although the huge territory of southern Xinjiang is occupied, there are not enough demon troops to defend it, so this is our opportunity."
Before the words fell, the atmosphere in the house suddenly became much hotter, and people's faces showed excited looks, and the tiger next to them suddenly turned into a kitten, and everyone would be happy if they changed.
Yeluyun didn't say a word, quietly looking at the radiant Bird Ning, this beautiful leader must have already made a battle plan, and the rest is enough to execute.
"Generalissimo Lian, how is the reaction of Mochizuki Highland?"
Lian Puyu got up and responded: "Dozens of feints in the past half a month, the demon army has become an island of frightened bows, they all think that our army intends to march into the Moon Heights on a large scale, these days there are more and more defenders, the number is considerable, it seems that there is a plan to defend to the death, with our current strength, if we want to attack strongly, I am afraid that there will be great losses."
"Good." Bird Ning smiled with satisfaction, then moved her gaze to Yeluyun, "Before you came, we already made an attack plan, please forgive me!"
"It's okay, I trust my lord's judgment."
"The first target is here!" Bird Ning casually patted it towards the corner of the map.
Yeluyun's gaze moved along the slender jade fire, and when he landed on the map, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he almost didn't scream in shock, his eyes were so vicious, he dared to target the abdomen located in the demon-controlled area at this stormy moment.
"Heaven's Gate!" Ji Huanting let out a soft moan as if in resonance.
The husband and wife glanced at each other, the enemy's anti-Lin demon array is near the gate of heaven, if you can get these two places in your hands, you can cut off the retreat of the demons, and at the same time, you can also stop the alien island from having enemy reinforcements, although the number of five million demon troops is huge, but the powerful celestial people will definitely make him lose a lot, and one day he will kill them all.
Que Ning seemed to enjoy the stunned expressions of the two, and waited for a while before explaining, "The position of the Heavenly Gate is deep, and it is in the rear of the enemy army, there will not be many defenders, and they will not think that we have the courage to go directly to the hinterland."
Ye He said with a smile: "If this plan is successful, we can establish a base in the rear of the enemy, mainly attack in the air, pull the demon army in the southern Xinjiang, and then attack from the east and west, and we will win a complete victory."
For a while, the crowd in the house was turbulent, and everyone was enthusiastic to express what they thought, hoping to create a shocking victory in the rear of the enemy army.
Ji Huanting has always maintained an outsider's mentality, with a stronger insight, although the strategy is dangerous, but it is very certain, one is that the enemy's rear defense is weak, and the other is that the heavenly soldiers are familiar with the southern terrain, and it is very easy to gain a foothold, and the important point is that it can suppress the anti-Lin demon array, but this strategy is not perfect, it is not that the bird is negligent, the troops are insufficient, and many things are beyond the reach.
"Yeluyun, what is your opinion?"
Seeing that she didn't mention the Reverse Lin Demon Array, Yelu Yun realized that Que Ning was only a purely military point of view, and did not understand the demons, so he replied in a deep voice: "My lord, there is one thing I have to remind you that the reason why the demon army was able to enter the Ming Yuan Heaven was because they established an Reverse Lin Demon Array, and the power of the demon array opened the passage between the heavenly realm and the outside world in the air, so there were millions of demons to kill, and that place was near the Heavenly Gate. The demon army may not have thought that the adults would be so bold and dare to attack the Heavenly Gate, and there may not be many defenders, but after all, it is the place where the demons enter, and if there are demons from outside the sky constantly coming in, the number is also considerable, and this must be taken into account."
A complete plan revealed flaws in just a few words, and everyone present was dumbfounded, and Que Ning also fell into silence, staring at the Tianmen on the map and meditating.
Yeluyun's original intention was not to hit morale, but he just hoped that everyone would think about it carefully, and said with a relaxed smile: "Actually, don't worry too much, anyway, the demon army is going to be killed, and that passage also needs to be closed, if the adult's plan is successful, what we control is only the land and city in the southern Xinjiang, but the lifeline of the demon army, and if we hit that passage, the demon army will become a homeless child." Without backup, even if there are 10 million demon troops, killing 100,000 a year, they can be killed in a hundred years, and there is nothing else in the Heavenly Court, there is still time."
The knot in Que Ning's heart suddenly untied, and he glanced at Yeluyun excitedly, and the complicated look in his eyes made the figure who had just sat back in place tremble slightly.
"Yeluyun is right, it seems that the enemy's lifeline has been found by mistake, that passage must be destroyed no matter what, and this operation will affect the whole."
Izuru raised his fist and shouted, "In that case, let's act! Kill them and leave not a single piece of armor behind."
The group of generals asked for battle one after another, and the fighting spirit was even higher than before, and Que Ning believed that as long as an order was given, all the soldiers in Ziyangping would fight to kill the enemy.
"Yeluyun, when will your men arrive?"
"In ten days, 500,000 soldiers of the Mingyuan clan will gather in Ziyangping!"
"Good! From now on, you will take over the defense of Ziyangping, and the defense line to the west will depend on you."
"No problem, just ......"
Ji Wanting suddenly floated up and said, "Lord Quening."
Seeing his wife speak, Yeluyun already knew that she was going to say it on her behalf, and leaned back in the chair with a smile.
"What's the matter with my sister?" Bird Ning attaches great importance to women, especially general-type women, just like her two personal guards, and her attitude is extremely gentle and polite.
"Your Excellency wants to raid the Heavenly Gate with four Heavenly Soldiers, right?"
"That's right."
"Before me, this arrangement was not perfect."
"Oh!"
"Although the defenders of southern Xinjiang have been transferred a lot, if the Heavenly Gate is attacked, they will rush to the Heavenly Gate from the heavy place like a tide, with the strength of the four adults, they should be able to deal with it calmly, but if they want to destroy the passage, they may not be able to do so, and then the demon army will not have to withdraw from the front line at all, as long as they go to the outer island to gather a large army, a huge military force will suddenly appear near the Heavenly Gate, not only the Heavenly Gate cannot be defended, but the four adults will also be in danger."
Everyone changed color, and they really didn't expect that if it really happened, the scene would be quite terrifying.
"My sister must have a high opinion, so please guide my sister!" Bird Ning was very ordinary, and the charm of Yan Ran's smile also dispersed the tension that had just condensed in the air.
"My lord, your idea is not wrong, it's just that you didn't take into account the strength of the Mingyuan clan, although this race is a bit strange, but please firmly believe that we will be your most loyal companions in this war."
Que Ning quickly caught Ji Huanting's meaning, her eyes lit up, and she asked, "Could it be that Sister Fei wants to lead troops to help attack the Heavenly Gate?"
"Assistance is inevitable, otherwise we wouldn't have rushed here, but most of our soldiers are ground troops, and it is quite inconvenient to reach the Tianmen area silently, and it will also affect the mobility and flexibility of the heavenly soldiers."
Bird Ning frowned slightly, but didn't ask again.
"It's a huge battle against the Gate of Heaven and the Passage, and you can't just look at the situation." Ji Huanting floated to the edge of the map as she spoke, "First of all, we must contact the people in the west, north, and east, so that they must strike at the demon army fiercely, forcing the demon army to continue to draw troops from the south to reinforce the north, but the southern demon army will also worry about us here, so we must use feints to dispel their suspicions, so that they can rest assured that they can reinforce the north."
"You're saying you want us to feign reinforcements north to the Heavens."
"My lord is really ice and snow smart, the four commanders' subordinates are all flying troops, extremely mobile, they have repeatedly attacked Mochizuki Heights before, and at this time they suddenly retreated north, the demon army will definitely think that the feint attack on Mochizuki Heights is to suppress the demon army, intending to trap them in the south of the water and weaken the pressure in the north."
"I see, they will definitely follow the feint of our army to the north, and the defenders of Mochizuki Heights will weaken."
"At this time, Ziyangping must also make the illusion of withdrawing troops, the demon army is very suspicious, making them feel that there is no military strength near Mochizuki Heights to launch an offensive, and the redundant soldiers will continue to move north, and eventually the entire south will be forgotten by them."
"What a grand layout!" Lian Puyu muttered a long sigh, many people resonated, a weak yin soul had such wisdom, they all sighed, Ye He sighed deeply.
While Que Ning sighed, she was still guessing Ji Huanting's thoughts, and there must be more small layouts in the big layout.
"When the south is empty, the Lord can lead the air army through the waters, directly attack the Gate of Heaven, and win the battle."
"What about you?"
"We'll be here." Ji Huanting smiled slightly and pointed to the northeast of the Heavenly Gate.
"Sang Qingguan!" Not only did the four handsomes scream, but even Que Ning couldn't help but let out an exclamation, this was simply the finishing touch.
Yeluyun looked at his wife with satisfaction, only he knew that his wife's military strategy was by no means under the condensation, but her fate was bumpy and she had no chance to play.
"The demon army doesn't know about the Yin Spirits, I will lead hundreds of thousands of Yin Spirits into the Sangqing Pass and the nearby White Bone Forest, as long as the wall of fire is not extinguished, if the troops in the north of the demon army want to reinforce the south, they must take the path of Sangqing Pass and the White Bone Forest, just as they attacked Nanxiang City."
"This wrap is indeed a choke point between the north and the south, but why use a Yin Spirit?"
"The Yin Spirits don't actually have much combat power, but we are huge in number, and we are not afraid of any flesh fighting, they can't cut us at all, except for certain demon weapons, but I believe that they would never think of dealing with the Yin Spirits when they were preparing to attack the Celestial Realm."
"This is such a brilliant idea, cut the throat of the demon, and if the ground forces of the demon army want to return to the south, they can only force a breakthrough, or act from the sea."
Yeluyun interjected with a smile: "Things on the sea must also be worried, and the ground forces of the Mingyuan clan will not be idle."
"You have to guard Ziyangping, don't move around!"
"Ziyangping is not important, it is not a big deal to give it to the demons, if the operation of Tianmen starts, I will lead 500,000 people to storm the Nanling Plateau in the east of the Mochizuki Highlands, and divide the remaining military strength of the enemy army in the Mochizuki Highlands."
Que Ning exclaimed "Perfect battle plan", Yeluyun and Ji Huanting were like two gates to choke the enemy's two routes to rescue Tianmen, and the rest of the things as long as their army successfully captured Tianmen and destroyed the passage, then the territory originally occupied by the demon army would return to their own hands, and occupy the right time and place, as long as they held Sangqing Pass and eliminated the enemy in Mochizuki Heights, only Nanxiang City would be left in the hands of the enemy in Southern Xinjiang.
"It's amazing, I'm so excited to hear it, I want to make it a reality right away."
Que Ning quickly calmed down, the more perfect the plan, the greater the variables, the more things that needed to be done, and they had to start doing it immediately.
No one thought that the huge battle plan actually came from the brain of a despised Yin Soul, and the wooden house in Ziyangping brought another option for Ming Yuantian, just when the vast majority of people were worried about the demon army coming every day, there was such a group of people who were already silently trying to fight to regain the lost territory.
