After going back, Qin Ning immediately mobilized his generals and all of them came to Xijiang City for a conference.

On the one hand, Qin Ning needs to grasp the latest news, and on the other hand, Qin Ning needs to collect and build a wide range of projects and work out the fastest plan!

Now, because of Qin Ning's strong attack, he seriously injured the Northern Prince, so new progress has been made on the northern front, which will be of great benefit to the Qin army. It is even possible to capture a large amount of land in a short period of time, and if you don't do it, you can take it in one go.

But the East Prince's side was different, the same as before Qin Ning left. The Eastern Emperor still put on such a stubborn posture, which made the Qin army really have no good way to start for a while.

If the attack is forced, whether it is the loss of personnel or the loss of equipment, it is unacceptable to Qin Ning.

The generals of the Qin army on the Eastern Front proposed that they could take a destructive attack, select some targets in the Eastern Prince's area, and kill them with the people and the city!

In this way, sufficient psychological deterrence can be formed against the enemy, and then the propaganda of offensive tactics can be used to save life as long as they surrender. The general felt that such a method should be able to take down the Eastern Prince.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Ning felt that this idea was still more feasible. However, it is still a little imperfect, and then Qin Ning pointed out that this is a good hand in local warfare, but looking at the overall situation may not be the best means.

The Eastern Prince and the Northern Prince are essentially two kinds of people, although these two brothers and sisters are mad for their own interests, but the Eastern Prince has not yet reached the point of annihilating human nature, and the people in the jurisdiction are very bitter, but there is still a glimmer of vitality.

However. The Northern Prince, on his part, wants to squeeze out all the common people to meet his needs.

If you choose to destroy the blow, you must also start on the prince of the north. It can also play a role in deterring the Eastern Prince and his subordinates.

As long as enough destructive blows were carried out on the side of the Northern Prince, the already low morale of the Eastern Prince's side would be even lowered. Don't hit him. Rather, it is just to create a high-pressure situation, which has a more psychological deterrent effect than hitting them.

But once you fight, you can do anything to save your life. And if there is no threat from the outside for the time being, people inside will think about their future and destiny.

Fortresses often crumble from within.

Therefore, Qin Ning decided to temporarily implement a high-pressure posture against the Eastern Prince, aggressive, but he just didn't fight.

Qin Ning ordered the generals of the Eastern Front to press forward the positions of the three army groups in the south, the south and the center, and at the same time narrow the gap between the various group armies. From the overall strategic layout, the Eastern Prince did not dare to launch a big battle. Each group army should send small units of armed forces to attack and harass the various military targets of the Eastern Prince, so as to exhaust the Eastern Prince.

With the current strength of the Qin army, it is no longer a problem to clean up the Eastern and Northern Princes. The key problem was that the Qin army was facing a two-front battle, and launching an attack at the same time would put too much pressure on the supply of materials in the rear. Even if there are large teleportation arrays and large aircraft for short-term transportation, it always takes people to carry them, right?

The two large Qin army group armies on the Eastern Front and the Northern Front, with a huge consumption of nearly two million people, coupled with the daily attrition of ordnance from the simultaneous war, the supply supply in the rear is to pull all the citizens out, and it is unbearable to carry them into the teleportation array day and night.

This is still an ideal calculation in which supplies are in one place. As for the high-grade alchemy ordnance, it takes time to refine, and the consumption of one base of nearly two million huge troops is enough for the alchemy field to vomit back blood.

The main thing is that the time is too tight. Within three months, the Blue Star Empire must be unified!

Qin Ning assessed the shape of the shì, and it was the only choice to clean up the Northern Prince first.

Because I cleaned up the East Prince first. The Northern Prince did not have any possibility of a head-on conflict with the Qin army. The Northern Prince is not as weak-willed as the Eastern Prince, which is a very resilient one. Insidious and vicious guy.

If he can't clash head-on with the Qin army, the Northern Prince will not be able to clean up the remnants. Playing guerrilla tactics with the Qin army would be very troublesome.

So Qin Ning made up his mind to clean up the Northern Prince first!

As long as the Northern Prince is disabled, whether it is him, the leader or those subordinates, on the Eastern Prince's side, the psychological level will be close to collapse, and it will be relatively easy to clean up the Eastern Prince.

Qin Ning arranged the strategic layout of the eastern front and immediately flew to the headquarters of the Qin Army Group Army on the northern front. Qin Ning did not convene a meeting of senior generals as usual, but directly announced that he would carry out a large-scale counterattack on the territory of the Northern Prince.

Ordered Qiu Wenhe to lead 100,000 Qin troops to garrison Yifu Pass, and in addition to being responsible for the garrison of Yifu Pass, he should organize the refugees near the Luo Peng Mountains and return to the city where he lived at any time for reconstruction.

The organization and coordination of refugees is very manpower-consuming, and it is inevitable that unexpected situations will occur, so Qin Ning left Qiu Wenhe with 100,000 Qin troops as a mobile force to assist Qiu Wenhe in carrying out administrative work.

Sha Xingping commanded 500,000 troops, and immediately after leaving Yifu Pass, the troops marched to the northeast. Along the way, the cities were recovered, and the recovered cities were garrisoned by 30,000 Qin troops, waiting for Qiu Wen and the moving population to rebuild the cities together.

Qin Ning himself commanded 300,000 troops, marched out of Yifu Pass to the northwest, and like Sha Xingping, recovered the city along the way, leaving the garrison to coordinate the reconstruction of the city.

When the Qin army and the refugees heard that they were going north, they were all enthusiastic, and there was no need to mobilize at all, the Qin army was holding back its strength to fight with the army of the Northern Prince, and the refugees were eager to go home, so the army and the people were busy with the relevant preparations for going north.

Qin Ning somewhat underestimated the refugees' desire to return to their hometowns, the Qin army had not yet packed up, the refugees had already packed up, and they were crowded in front of Yifu Pass, which was even more spectacular than when they fled!

The scene once reached the point of getting a little out of control, Qiu Wenhe hurriedly mobilized troops to maintain order, and warned the refugees not to worry, and they could not return to their hometowns safely until the Qin army marched north to capture the city. Blocking the pass in this way, the Qin army going north had no way to get out.

After tossing for three days, Qiu Wenhe evacuated the refugees, and the army led by Qin Ning and Sha Xingping was able to leave Yifu Pass and march according to the established strategy.

Sha Xingping and Qin Ning attacked in two directions, northeast and northwest, and only met with slight resistance in the first city. In the face of the torrent of the Qin army, they each captured a city in less than half a day.

But what Qin Ning and Sha Xingping didn't expect was. Only the first city they encountered on the march north showed symbolic resistance. When the two led the army to the depths, the places they passed were basically empty. It has been advancing to a depth of three hundred miles, and this is still the case.

Qin Ning was a little uneasy, so he informed Sha Xingping to suspend the march and sent scouts out to find out what was going on.

The situation reported by the scout made Qin Ning frown.

It turned out that within the depth of 200 miles ahead, all the cities were empty, that is to say, the Northern Prince was shrinking his forces, and within the range of 500 miles deep from Yifu Pass to the hinterland of the Northern Prince, all the strategies of the Northern Prince were abandoned!

I have to say. The strategic abandonment of the Northern Prince is still very effective.

The total strength of the Qin army brought out by Qin Ning and Sha Xingping was 800,000, and every time they passed through a city, they had to leave 30,000 troops to garrison, and if they advanced all the way to a depth of 500 miles, the remaining troops in the hands of Qin Ning and Sha Xingping would probably only be 400,000.

Although this is not a battle loss, when facing the Northern Prince, after all, the strength of the army has been reduced by half.

And the withdrawal of the Northern Prince's army is precisely to gather the scattered forces, so that one can eliminate the other. The Northern Princes were able to give up the advantage in military strength through the guò strategy.

After thinking about it for a long time, Qin Ning decided that he still wanted to go north!

Qin Ning immediately contacted Sha Xingping and said, "It's still according to the predetermined plan to go north, and the relevant cities we encounter will still leave 30,000 troops to garrison." But when it reaches a depth of five hundred miles. Be especially careful, scatter more scouts, and pay close attention to the dynamics of the Northern Prince's army. ”

As we continue to advance northward. The troops around Qin Ning became fewer and fewer, and when the scouts reported that the army of the Northern Prince appeared in front of them. Qin Ning only had more than 100,000 Qin troops around him.

Qin Ning ordered the troops to settle down, and once again asked the scouts to continue to investigate the details of the situation ahead.

The message came back quickly. A hundred miles ahead, is a city painstakingly managed by the Northern Prince-Moko City.

Moko City is a large city, with a garrison of 300,000 troops. Moko City is very different from the layout of the city seen by the Qin army before, Moko City is built by mountains and rivers, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and on one side is a large river blocking the only flat terrain in Moko City to connect to the outside of the road.

Outside of Moko, there are a number of defensive strongholds interlocked, and Moko City has spread its patrol range to a radius of thirty miles outside Moko.

After the scout introduced the general situation of what he knew, he presented Qin Ning with a sketch of Moko City.

Looking at the defensive configuration of Moko City, Qin Ning felt that this Moko City was a difficult bone to gnaw. Not to mention that Qin Ning only has 100,000 troops in his hands now, even if the 300,000 troops are brought over intact, I am afraid that it will be difficult to form an effective encirclement posture against Moke City.

The overall city defense building of Moko City is not large, and the key is that Moko City is effectively integrated with the surrounding mountains and rivers, which actually indirectly increases the size of Moko City by more than three times. The scale of Moko City is also the scale of a large city, but when you consider the surrounding natural environment, it is equivalent to a megacity.

There are 300,000 garrisons in Moko City, which is only a superficial number, and if you count the favorable terrain, this number will be doubled.

"It seems that the Northern Prince is using Moko City as the first stop to counterattack the Qin army. Frowning and thinking for a while, Qin Ning still decided to go to Moko City to take a look in person.

Qin Ning ordered the 100,000-strong army to be vigilant, stood by in place, and took three scouts to touch in the direction of Moko City.

Looking from afar, Moko City is surrounded by mountains and waters, and it has the taste of a king like a tiger standing on a dragon plate. A raging river about 50 zhang wide in front of Moko City cut off the connection between Moko City and the outside plain.

The city defenses of Moko took full advantage of this, building the walls of Moko all the way to the edge of the river, so that if you want to attack Moko from the direction of the level, you can only force your way through the raging river.

There is no bridge over the river, only a ferry for crossing the river, and it is difficult to do anything about this place. With a little use, this river can really be compared to 50,000 male soldiers.

Qin Ning observed for a moment and walked towards the place in the mountains around Moko City.

Far away from the mountain range, Qin Ning and his party discovered the enemy's patrol team. (To be continued......)
