Dongjun Yue Kingdom, Beiyin Port.

The snow is falling and the sea is rippling. Yue Qing took the civil and military officials of the Yue Kingdom to stand in anticipation in the wind and snow, and suddenly a long whistle sounded.

Everyone looked at it intently, and saw a black ship coming from the waves of the sea and docking steadily in the harbor.

The planks of the boat were lowered, and someone got off the boat, Yue Qing left the left and right guards behind him and walked forward quickly, but stopped halfway through.

It's just because the person she misses is being hugged by four women at the moment, some she has seen and some Yue Qing has never seen.

"This color embryo still hasn't changed!"

Yue Qing pretended to be reserved and stood in place.

Qin Yun also saw Yue Qing pestle in the wind and snow, and he beckoned.

"King Yue hasn't seen you for a long time!"

Yue Qing scrupulously abided by etiquette and took the civil and military officials to give up.

"On behalf of all the people of the Yue Kingdom, this king welcomes His Royal Highness King Liang!"

Qin Yun waved his hand: "King Yue is polite, let me introduce you, this is Shen Yue, the daughter of the Shangshu of the Great Xia Household, and this is ......"

Yue Qing said lightly: "White shopkeeper, we are old acquaintances. ”

Bai Wanqing blinked, she didn't remember that she knew such a heroic female general.

Qin Yun whispered in her ear: "This is the King of Yue who is dressed as a man. ”

Bai Wanqing suddenly realized: "The little girl has seen His Royal Highness King Yue!" ”

Qin Yun pointed at Li Daiyu: "This, Li Daiyu." Okay, I won't introduce Jiang Xue, in short, you have to get along well in the future. ”

Li Daiyu blinked: "Husband, this His Royal Highness the King of Yue, have I seen it, it feels so familiar!" ”

Can it not be familiar? I had seen it in Qiongzhou before, but at that time, Yue Qing was not dressed like this wearing battle armor and wearing a cloak around his waist.

At that time, she looked like a lively and active girl.

But now, Qin Yun saw a sad look on her face that was worried about the country and the people.

He stepped forward and didn't shy away from it, and directly took Yue Qing's hand, the latter wanted to retract it, but Qin Yun dragged it stubbornly, Qin Yun's eyes burned, and he said with a sincere face.

"These days, I'm suffering you! You have supported the Yue Kingdom alone, but don't worry, from now on, I and the millions of people in Qiongzhou will stand behind you and support you! ”

Yue Qingying raised her eyebrows and forcibly withdrew her hand.

"Ministers are watching!"

Qin Yun said domineeringly: "So what, whoever looks at it can't change it, the fact that you are my Qin Yun woman!" ”

The ministers laughed and said nothing, at first they were very resistant to their prince being a woman. But these days, Yue Qing took the lead and took the lead in resisting the invaders.

He won great prestige in the hearts of the soldiers, and the help of the sergeants sent by Qin Yun made them grateful to this prince of Great Xia from the bottom of their hearts.

Of course, what they didn't know was that Qin Yun had now become the No. 1 thief in the Great Summer.

Qin Yun said: "Okay, there is a lot of snow here, let's move and talk about it!" ”

Yue Qing nodded.

……

Beiyin Fortress, the temporary palace of the King of Yue.

It is said that it is a palace, but in fact, it is just a hollowed-out and expanded cave in the belly of the mountain. However, it is also warm.

Qin Yun and Yue Qing sat together in the chief, and the hundreds of civil and military officials below were lined up, and the Qiongzhou generals such as Bai Zhanpeng, Lantian, Tie Zhuan, Zuo Siliang, and Zhao Fengxian were also lined up.

Li Qingru, the new prime minister of the Yue Kingdom, stepped forward and arched his hand: "King Yue, His Royal Highness King Liang." Today, there are 50,000 new troops in our country, including 30,000 firecrackers, 20,000 infantry, 20,000 Qiongzhou naval divisions, and the original 100,000 Beiyin defenders, the total strength of our army has reached nearly 200,000. ”

"The minister proposed to launch a general attack on the Wu allied forces entrenched in the north of the Beiyin Fortress, and in one fell swoop to beat the Wu army out of the entire territory of Yue and recover the occupied old land."

Qin Yun asked, "How is the logistics grain and grass prepared by the Yue Kingdom?" ”

Li Qingru said: "Back to Your Highness, these days Qiongzhou has supported dozens of large ships of grain and grass, which is enough for the army for three months. ”

Qin Yun squinted: "Lantian, you first talk about the situation!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Lantian directly ordered someone to spread out the battle situation map made of parchment.

"Lord Wang, please see, now we are at the southern foot of Beiyin Mountain, this fortress is the only passage from the north of the Yue Kingdom to the south of the country, if the enemy wants to capture the remaining cities of the Yue Kingdom, either from the sea detour, or storm this North Yin Tianxian."

"However, with the two ironclad ships of the Casting God and the Heavenly Craft, even if the Wu Kingdom has ten times more Divine Dragon Ships, it will be useless. Therefore, we don't have to worry about the Wu Kingdom attacking from other places. ”

"But the last general thinks that now is not a good time to push back. There is a Yueshui between Wu and Yue, but now that the snow is frozen, the Yueshui River is no longer a natural hazard. ”

"Wu has already used this time to transport a steady stream of war materials across the river, including artillery, catapults, fire oil and other materials for defending the city."

"The original thirty-six cities of the Yue Kingdom have been turned into iron buckets by them. Even if our current military strength is comparable to that of Wu's invading army. ”

"But once we leave Beiyin Mountain to attack, the other party can completely use a small group of enemies to attract our attention, and then dispatch a large army to take the Beiyin Fortress in one fell swoop."

"When the time comes, the army will not only be cut off from supply, but may even be dumplings by the other party."

"Once the land is lost, even if the three ironclad ships are gathered now, they will not be able to continue to fight because of supply problems."

"The most important thing is that the places where the Yue country raises horses are all in the occupied area in the north, which has led to the fact that our army has no war horses to use. Even if there are enough firearms, if you can't catch up with people, it's in vain. ”

"Therefore, the last general's suggestion is to continue to build a defensive line in the area of Beiyin Mountain, and wait for the next spring, when the Yueshui River thaws, and then the ironclad ships we are waiting for will be able to gain control of Yueshui."

"Wu State will not be able to continuously replenish the supply of troops and supplies, and at that time, the thirty-six cities will just be turtles in the urn!"

Qin Yun bowed slightly: "Good analysis!" King Yue, what do you think? ”

Yue Qing muttered: "There are the people of my Yue country, and the front-line spies have come to report that this group of beasts of the Wu country not only reduced them to slaves, but also killed a group of women and children every once in a while, they just want to force me to wait out of the fortress to fight with them!" ”

"General Lan is only analyzing this matter strategically, but including the newly formed Fire Gun Army, many people's hometowns are in the thirty-six cities of the north."

"The soldiers are homesick, and the king is worried that if this goes on for a long time, he may have an accident."

Li Qingru arched his hand and said: "Yes, what General Lan said, we all agree with it, but once the morale falls, once the people's hearts are not condensed, this battle will be lost no matter how it is fought." ”

"We have to give the soldiers an explanation!"

Qin Yun nodded, he looked at the battle map and concluded.

"The situation at the moment is that we are more defensive, not enough offensive! Bai Zhanpeng, what do you say is the reason? ”

Bai Zhanpeng said: "The last general thinks that the biggest problem is mobility, if only the prince's iron horse could be mass-produced, our army can ride the iron horse and drive straight in!" ”

Qin Yun smiled and shook his head: "Don't say whether it can be mass-produced, even if it can, on this muddy road, how do you tell this king to travel?" Unless there's a chain-strap tank, it's not something that can be considered right now, we don't have the technology or the ability to build it. ”

"Bai Zhanpeng, if this king can get you no less than 30,000 war horses within a month, can you train a fast and mobile cavalry?"

Bai Zhanpeng said: "Lord, my Bai family has its own set of training methods, and even as long as there are war horses and cavalry who can ride horses, the last general will have the confidence to lead them to victory." ”

"Okay, just say this to you, this king toasts you!"

Qin Yun took a sip of his wine glass, but Bai Zhanpeng didn't move.

"Lord Wang, tell me where you got these 30,000 war horses first, right?"

Qin Yun said with a smile: "Mountain people have their own clever plans! ”
