It took a whole day to finally rearrange the position, and Li Huaide's royal court headquarters was established on the side of Heishui Mountain.

You can see the whole stadium directly, but also hidden.

Evening.

Li Huai personally inspected the forward positions, inspected the depth and width of the tripping horse pit, as well as camouflage.

The rangers had already been deployed to the west of the river, with the Yellow River behind them, and a pontoon bridge was erected over the Yellow River.

Easy to support or retreat.

Li Huai came back from Hexi, passing through the east side of the mouth, here is a chaotic hillside, the hillside is generally not high, and chaotic, overgrown with weeds.

Thirty heavy guns, one hundred light guns were arranged, and the shells were able to cover the front three hundred to five hundred paces of the position.

To prevent the enemy from attacking with fire, Li Huai ordered to clear a mile of weeds near the artillery positions and check the storage of gunpowder.

Be sure to wrap it in oiled paper, in case it gets wet, and these cannons will become useless scrap metal.

Back from the east.

A three-story wooden village was re-established at the junction, and the bottom was fixed with stones to prevent the enemy from dragging it over in the same way.

Each wooden village has an arrow tower on both sides, and a log bridge is built in the middle, which is enough for soldiers to pass freely.

An artillery group is placed in the rear of the wooden village, and with the crossbowmen on the wooden village, it can cover a mile in front of the position.

The largest artillery group is still in Heishui Mountain, not to say that there are many guns here, on the contrary, except for the east side of the mountain, that is, on the original basis of the previous enemy artillery position, twenty heavy guns are arranged, and the rest are light artillery.

But the artillery group here is particularly wide, three or five guns in groups, arranged on the ridgeline and on the mountainside.

Mostly dark bunkers.

Moreover, the firing range of the artillery group in Heishui Mountain is higher, which means that it can be fought farther, and it can even be flattened.

It can support every position on the battlefield.

Most importantly, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are so many sentry posts that it is almost impossible for the enemy to touch them.

The main forces, including food and grass supplies, as well as field hospitals, were deployed at the rear of the camp.

With half a battalion as a unit, they took turns to fight.

Their goal is not to crush the enemy, but to stop them!

As long as you can hold on from tomorrow morning to see the sun the day after tomorrow, you will be considered a victory.

"Report!"

"King Qi Liang, the main force of the Gaochang King was pulled out a moment ago, and it is heading in our direction."

Although no one was let out.

But after all, a day has passed.

There has been no news for a whole day, and the Gaochang royal department must be suspicious, and with such a big move, the news should also be transmitted from Liangzhou to the Gaochang royal department.

Calculated by distance.

The main force of the Gaochang royal army will arrive in the second half of the night at the earliest, but it is possible to send light cavalry to support quickly.

It's going to be there in three hours.

"Be vigilant and continue to investigate." Li Huai ordered, everything that should be done has been done, and now it is only waiting for the enemy to attack.

He returned to the General Command.

Yang Dong was lying on the table drawing maps, military maps and ordinary maps, which were completely different things.

Reading and drawing pictures is a skill that officers at all levels must learn.

Li Huai also studied for a long time, and when he came to Yang Dong, the latter hadn't noticed it yet, and was still concentrating on drawing.

One mountain and one water, height, width, geology, vegetation...... Wait, it's clearly marked.

"Tsk!"

Li Huaiyi smacked his tongue and joked: "I don't even want to return you to Yang Lingyun, or you just stay in Liangjun." ”

"Ahh

Yang Dong noticed this, raised her head suddenly, and when she heard what Li Huai said, her face was slightly red.

"Don't joke, if I don't go back, the general can kick me to death with his eyes."

"Is Yang Lingyun fierce?" Li Huai asked.

Yang Dong thought for a while, he couldn't say that he was fierce, he should say that it was, "The general is very ...... Stern! ”

Yang Lingyun has never shared weal and woe with the soldiers, she can see it when she gets such a big bath in the place where she lives.

Even the food is different, Li Huai has been there once before, and he found that every meal of Yang Dong was ordered by her, and then the chef made it.

There is also dressing, Yang Lingyun doesn't like to wear gold and silver, but clothes and shoes have extremely high requirements.

She doesn't want the silk to be too soft, and she doesn't want the linen to be too hard, it is said that Yang Lingyun's clothes are all made for Li Gan in the capital, specially sewn for her, and then sent to the Great Wall by the Ministry of War with strategic material specifications.

Her pet, Hai Dongqing, whose name is 'Xiaobai', eats better than ordinary officers.

Yang Lingyun's life seems to be simple, but in fact, it is extremely luxurious inside, which is unimaginable to ordinary people.

What she pursues, money simply can't buy.

However, in the entire Great Wall Army, no one thought that there was anything wrong with this, they only knew that by following General Yang Lingyun, they could win battles and build military achievements.

Those people in the capital didn't dare to say that she was not, they only dared to complain a few words secretly, and then did everything possible to arrange the children and grandchildren of the family to join the Great Wall Army, and come back with a little military merit, so that they could enter the official career.

"The mountains can be crossed, the sea can be crossed, but Yang Lingyun cannot be touched." Li Huai sighed, there is really a lot of pressure to have such a fiancée.

"The general is still more tender to the prince." Yang Dong said, to be more precise, Yang Lingyun gave Li Huai the only tenderness.

Only when she saw Li Huai, or read the letter he wrote, would she have that doting look in her eyes.

"From the first time I met her, to now, I am still a younger brother in front of her, and she will not think that I have grown up."

Although Li Huai never said it, he really didn't like Yang Lingyun's eldest sister's mother-like eyes.

He wanted to prove to her that he was an adult.

"The prince doesn't have to mourn himself, you can also be a rare hero in the world." Yang Dong encouraged him.

"Heroes?" Li Huai didn't understand why she used this word on herself.

Yang Dong smiled and said: "Lord Wang, in the nineteen years since the founding of the Yu State, it has never expanded its territory, not an inch. ”

Now, that record is about to be broken.

If he subdues the Night Wolf Tribe, then now, here and now, the soldiers are pointing to the west of the river, as long as they can control the eastern section of the Hexi corridor.

Then for the entire Yu country, the significance is significant, and the most intuitive manifestation is that the map moves an inch to the west.

This exploit, even if those people in the court are prejudiced against him and do not recognize his ability, the history books will record it.

This is a historic moment.

When Li Huai heard her words, he smiled and raised his hand to touch her head, "To tell you something from the heart, I really can't bear you." ”

Yang Dong was extremely uncomfortable by this sudden touch, and quickly changed the topic, "It's time to prepare to meet the enemy." ”

Her voice just fell.

"Report!"

The herald came in.

"King Qiqi Liang, the vanguard of the Gaochang Wang's department, is less than fifty miles away from our army, and there are about 8,000 light cavalry."

So fast!

"Prepare to meet the enemy, don't move the rangers yet." Li Huai ordered, and together with Yang Dong, he came out of the headquarters.

They ascended the ridge in front.

When I looked up at the night sky, the moon had just passed through the treetops, and it was the middle of the day, and the enemy had only pulled out of camp a moment before the hour.

That said, it only took two and a half hours.

Although the night is good, you can't see too far at night, and using a telescope won't help.

"Eat something first, I guess I won't have to sleep in the middle of the night." Li Huai calmed down inexplicably at this moment.

He was ready for a full day without sleep.

Half an hour later.

"Report!"

"King Qiyu Liang, the enemy's vanguard stopped at ten miles, and they sent a small team to fight as an envoy."

Before the war even began, they were thinking about peace?

This is not the style of the Western Regions.

"Don't let them in, they want to find out what we are arranged, and we will send a team of messengers to stop them a mile away."

"No matter what they ask, they won't agree!"

Li Huai commanded.

"Yes!"

The herald went at once.

Soon.

"King Qiyu Liang, the other party sent a letter, saying that it was conveyed to you." The herald came in with an envelope.

Li Huaigang stretched out his hand, and Yang Dong hurriedly said, "Open it!" ”

She's afraid of fraud!

As an adjutant, what to draw and arm, that is secondary, the main task, is to protect the safety of the commander.

In front of Li Huai, the herald opened the envelope, took out a letter inside, and checked both sides of the front and back.

Li Huai took it at this time, and the person who wrote this letter was called: Tu Nao. A great general under King Gaochang.

In the past during the civil war in the Western Regions, he had a brilliant record, and King Gaochang was able to become the overlord of the Eastern and Western Regions, which had a certain relationship with him.

"What did they say?" Yang Dong asked curiously.

"Tu Nao wants to make an appointment with me for an interview, about the matter of Longxi City, he said that he is willing to use a piece of land in the west of Longxi County in exchange for our current position." Li Huai replied, handing the letter to Yang Dong by the way.

Yang Dong picked it up and looked at it, raised his head and said, "There must be fraud in this, and Tu Nao is still a martial artist in the Grandmaster Realm." ”

In war, the Grandmaster Realm is like a movable heavy artillery, which cannot be defended by any formation, and the number of Grandmaster Realms often represents the strength of a force.

There is currently no Grandmaster Realm in the Liang Army.

However, it was precisely because of this that Li Huai wanted to go to the appointment, they wanted to trick him out, and he also wanted to delay their attack.

It is estimated that they don't know that the real target of the Liang Army is the entire Jingtai area, not this one clamp.

The scheduled time for the attack is tomorrow morning, and there are still nearly four hours before now, and it will be delayed for a while.

"I'm going to the appointment!" Li Huai said.
