Before Qin Ning could speak, he heard Lu Ling continue: "Military advisor, I dare to ask, is it possible that you are so exhausted, born and died, just to help the second prince expand the territory?"

This sentence suddenly touched Qin Ning's most sensitive nerve.

Qin Ning drooped his face suddenly.

"General Lu, don't you think that you have a certain purpose for me?"

This has to be guarded against, Qin Ning is subordinate to others, and he has worked hard for his lofty goals. Now, it was already a little bit close, and Qin Ning didn't want to make a mistake at this time.

Actually, Qin Ning still has a good impression of Lu Ling. This person is very cool, and he attaches great importance to righteousness, and under the command of the second prince, he is indeed snubbed because he is not a descendant. Therefore, in addition to having a good impression of this person, Qin Ning also had some sympathy.

However, thinking of his strategic intentions, Qin Ning had to be ruthless.

The Seven-Star Iron Wall, now it is still a situation where the Yelan King and the Second Prince are competing for power, even if Qin Ning is strong personally, he can't take the Seven-Star Iron Wall from these two people, after all, the Qin army can't fight for a long time.

The only way to succeed is to instigate these two families to fight, consume a lot of money, and then quietly develop and grow by themselves, so that they can achieve the ultimate goal.

Now, the second prince has been dizzy, and he is bent on taking the Soul Fortune City from the hands of the Yelan King, this is the best time to consume the strength of both sides, once Qin Ning accidentally exposes his intentions and is known by the second prince, then the second prince in order to preserve his strength. It is bound to retreat.

In that case, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

There must be no such thing!

Therefore, Qin Ning responded to Lu Ling coldly.

"Strategist, in fact, the brothers also talk about it in private, even an ordinary soldier thinks like this, do you think, wouldn't the generals at the top think like this? Actually, no matter what your purpose is. After the battle from Panlong Ridge. Lu Ling was concerned about the military advisor. Remember that when Panlongling was desperate, Lu Ling hated that he couldn't follow the military advisor anymore, could the military advisor be so suspicious?

Qin Ning felt a little guilty for such an iron-blooded man. Make a show. It's a bit cruel.

"Lu Ling. Can I trust you?"

"Strategist, do you think I will betray you for the second prince? Actually, when Jiuqugou was in the past. That's how I feel. However, I didn't say it. ”

Qin Ning woke up suddenly, when he was in Jiuqugou, he and the little boss of the material and military supplies had dumped a batch of military supplies, which was originally the unspoken rule of some departments, and it was not a big deal. But the point is that I dumped that batch of materials not to sell for money, but for other purposes.

This kind of thing is to deceive the superiors and subordinates, then again, you can hide it from the second prince, but you can't hide it from a front-line general like Lu Ling.

"Well, Lu Ling, since that's the point, I want to know, what do you want to do?"

"Strategist, I want to follow you. The Panlongling military division saved Zaixia's life, and from then on, Lu Ling was definitely on the side of the military division. I've always wanted to find a chance to talk to the military advisor, but I haven't had the opportunity to be alone, and today I have the opportunity, so I'll talk about it all. ”

Qin Ning's mind was spinning quickly, and he immediately affirmed Lu Ling's true confession. This is definitely not a temptation, if Lu Ling was sent by the second prince, then the matter of Jiuqugou would have already reached the ears of the second prince.

If this is the case, the second prince will never use his own again. In the future, Panlongling, Eagle Chou crossing, there is no need to fight.

"Lu Ling, I accept your request. But there are some things, too many, too complicated, to explain clearly for a while, so I have to wait until I have time to tell you later. Now, I am leading my troops to attack Soul Luck City, which has an extremely important strategic purpose. If you want to follow me, then fight this battle well. ”

After pondering for a while, Qin Ning felt that Lu Ling was a talent, and it was still very good to take him under his command.

"Thank you, military advisor!" Lu Ling was overjoyed, and he turned over and was about to bow down.

Qin Ning hurriedly pulled up Lu Ling: "Lu Ling, no matter who it is, as long as I approve it, I am a brother." I don't like this, so don't do it in the future. Right now, the most important thing is the city defense on the periphery of Soul Luck City, which really gives me a headache, since you recognize this as the Wall of Sighs, is there any way to attack it?"

This is indeed a problem, if there is no good way to attack, just the periphery will pay too many casualties, the second prince will not look at the current ambition, and he will hesitate at that time.

Lu Ling laughed and said that asking this question can be regarded as the right person.

Lu Ling had suffered a big loss in similar urban defense fortifications, so Lu Ling had conducted in-depth research on this kind of fortifications afterwards.

I was afraid to study everything, and after Lu Ling's repeated deductions, I found a shortcoming in the Wall of Sighs.

The Wall of Sighs is a hybrid defense against air and with poor defense against ground. In other words, the Wall of Sighs is able to resist three-dimensional enemy attacks from both the air and the ground at the same time.

However, precisely because of such a defensive structure, the long-range defensive ordnance arranged on the corridor of the Wall of Sighs is in the form of two forms: ground and air.

No matter how wide the corridor is, the length of the front is a certain amount, and the number of ordnance placed is also a certain amount. The increase in the defense of the air reduces the absolute suppression of the ground, relatively speaking.

Because of the terrain, it's okay to reduce the firepower of the ground control. However, in this way, it is possible for the ground attack force to adopt the method of filling with human lives and attacking the dead corner of the wall defense artillery about 50 paces away from the root of the city.

As long as the troops rush to this dead end, all the long-range firepower on the Wall of Sighs will become decorations, and it will be useless at all.

At this time, you can win with the most primitive wall-climbing tactics. Because the Wall of Sighs is filled with ground-to-air super-powerful ordnance, the number of soldiers is relatively small. Because no one would have thought that in the face of such fortifications, the besieging side would use the most primitive methods of combat.

Qin Ning was overjoyed, Lu Ling's method could be said to have solved one of Qin Ning's worries.

Because the defense of the Wall of Sighs is too perverted, Qin Ning would not dare to attack lightly, if there is no effective method, if it drags on for a long time, the second prince will inevitably have the idea of retreating.

And to carry out a strong attack, because the opponent's perverted defense, even if it is a combination of open space and ground, it may not be able to be captured.

In this way, it will still shake the determination of the second prince.

At a certain time, Qin Ning even made up his mind to use his energy to complete the siege, and laid down the Wall of Sighs, believing that even if the second prince gambled his life, he would take the Soul Fortune City.

Qin Ning was very happy, and hurriedly took Lu Ling back to the barracks, and after warning Lu Ling not to tell the matter between the two, Qin Ning immediately found the second prince.

Qin Ning told all the situation and asked the second prince what his opinion was.

Although the second prince gave all the military power to Qin Ning, when it came to a battle that might cause huge casualties, Qin Ning still had to discuss it with the second prince.

Not to mention how entangled the second prince is, he made such a big determination to hit here, he should have closed his eyes and walked all the way to the dark. But the daily consumption of the huge army made the second prince unable to sleep.

In a sense, it is an overdraft of credit, and once it succeeds, it can compensate the damaged people, but if it is not successful, it will be robbed in the process of restoration, and it will be difficult to say what the people under the rule will do.

Qin Ning was determined to say the attack plan, and the second prince knew that it was feasible, but when he heard that the casualties might be large, he had another headache.

The consumption of human lives can be more powerful than the consumption of materials.

Drawing so many troops from the two places of Lingtu City is already close to the limit. After all, the territory in hand also needs to be guarded and managed by troops.

Once the casualties are too great, even if you take Soul Luck City, you won't even have the basic number of troops to guard, what's the use of taking it down?

"Strategist, how big the casualties can be, can you estimate it?" At this time, the second prince simply ignored it and asked about the situation, it was better to give the military advisor a headache.

Qin Ning pondered for a moment and said, "Judging from the terrain, only an attack force of 10,000 people can be placed, and on the Wall of Sighs, there will be heavy artillery and high-grade alchemy arrow feathers to control the firepower. At the distance of the enemy's fire control, there should be a small half of the casualties, and in the process of attacking the city, there will also be a small half of the casualties. ”

That's the little six thousand!

The second prince grinned when he heard this.

"Military advisor, you are the military commander, a qiē by you. ”

This is already very clear, and I agree.

Qin Ning immediately summoned all the generals and arranged a combat mission to attack the Wall of Sighs.

Many things have been restricted by the environment, and they can only send 10,000 siege troops to attack with their lives.

And in terms of fire support, there is nothing to do, because heavy artillery cannot go up.

Some distance between the second line of defense and the Wall of Sighs, even if the heavy artillery is carried over, the enemy bombards it, and the heavy artillery becomes scrap metal slag. In between, this is the range of the enemy's heavy artillery, and no large ordnance of any kind can be used here.

Therefore, to attack the Wall of Sighs, we must use the most barbaric and primitive methods, try to avoid the confrontation of heavy weapons, and instead fight people.

All the qiē were distributed according to the step-by-step plan, but Qin Ning hesitated when it came to the selection of generals to attack the Wall of Sighs.

Originally, this candidate should be Lu Ling, because all the whimsical ideas come from Lu Ling, and Lu Ling's command is the most suitable. But attacking the Wall of Sighs was too dangerous, Qin Ning had to think about Lu Ling's safety, this was his own person.

Seeing Qin Ning's hesitation, Lu Ling knew that it was Qin Ning who cared for him, so he flashed out and said: "Military Division, the last general is more familiar with this routine, although he has not practiced it, but he has repeatedly deduced it countless times in his heart, please ask the military advisor to appoint me as the attack commander." ”

Qin Ning glanced at Lu Ling and found that Lu Ling's eyes were full of longing.

Qin Ning knew that Lu Ling was risking his life to help him.

Thinking of this, Qin Ning's heart was hot, and he nodded at Lu Ling's general very solemnly. Since Qin Ning chose to believe in Lu Ling, he would focus on using him, only in this way would the other party not live up to his value. (To be continued......)
