The rebels retreated, and under the cover of Yao Shi and others, they evacuated Lixing City in an orderly manner.

The Talisman Jade Elephant shines in this battle situation, and only defending and not attacking can contain two opponents, freeing up a great martial artist to participate in ground battles.

Ding Kui had no choice but to order the pursuit to be stopped.

Today's battle is just a temptation, but also a deterrent, Xuanyuan Su told Ding Kui through this battle, "I also have high-end combat power, don't mess around, otherwise you will hurt each other." ”

"Those who have shown up over there have all come out, mainly relying on these few battles. "Shaodian Sui has a sixth-level combat power who has specially counted the rebels.

"There should be some who haven't shown their faces. Ding Kui showed a cautious attitude towards this.

"The rebel army is about the same, there are about six or seven, counting the one that the Tibetan Fog Mountain fought away, the three rebel water army, and the Xuanyuan Su department has ten. Shao Diansui believes that this is the limit of the rebels.

Ten Level 6 fighters are not a lot for a country, but they are really a lot for just one journey. You must know that you have to stay prepared for a long time and cannot practice normally, which is definitely not a good choice for those who want to advance.

"You don't count the foreign aid. Ding Kui said to Shaodiansui, "The Burning Heart Palace is not far from the Tibetan Fog Mountain, and if you come here, it will increase the distance between the two counties, and you need to consider it." ”

Min Chou nodded and said: "Yes, we can't be careless at a critical time, we can mobilize manpower, and so can the enemy, in case we are caught off guard, the good situation will be ruined." ”

Ding Kui said respectfully: "Well, it's almost time, please Master Min over." ”

"Yes, pay attention. After Min Chou finished speaking, he directly launched a teleportation, and his figure disappeared in the white light.

"Okay, the 71st, 79th, and 80th divisions will go to the barracks in the city to rest, and tomorrow morning they will go to Linping City and camp in its southeast. Ding Kui ordered the troops to be withdrawn.

Linping City is in the west of Lixing City, and the fast horse can run to it in half a day, and at this time, the advance of the Ninth Army has advanced to the north of Linping City.

Due to the attack on Lixing City, Xuanyuan Su strengthened the defense due north, and the rebel 2nd Division divided its troops all the way to Linping City to assist the city in resisting the Ninth Army Corps.

Early this morning, Ding Kui came to the forward battalion of the Ninth Army Corps, and flew over Linping City with Shaodianbao and Xianfu.

It didn't take long for Yao Shi and Fan Ying to fly out of the city with a forbidden law and confront Ding Kui and the others in the air.

Shaodian Bao wanted to go up and fight but was pulled by Ding Kui, "Don't worry, let the troops attack the city in an orderly manner." There are 30,000 more troops in the city, and there will be a shortage of storage materials soon, I want to see if Xuanyuan Su can save this city. His voice was loud, as if it was deliberately being heard by the other side.

"Hahaha, carving insect skills! We'll do it with you, see who escapes first!" Yao Shi sneered.

"Will I lose to you......?

“......”

The two actually quarreled with each other.

Shaodianbao and Xianfu were uncomfortable behind Ding Kui, where was this like a battlefield, similar to a street hooligan in the market, but they didn't dare to move, for fear that the other party would take advantage of the loophole.

They probably knew Ding Kui's plan, but they didn't expect a counterinsurgency general to do everything.

"Don't talk nonsense with you! Look at how my mighty Ninth Legion uses your soldiers' heads as melons. ”

In the end, Ding Kui dropped a sentence that made Shaodian Bao and Xianfu feel comfortable, and then took the lead and flew back to the barracks.

This can be regarded as a short-term tacit understanding between the two sides, and there will be no sixth-level combat power on the battlefield of Linping City, and they will only rely on the ability of their respective troops to confront each other.

Returning to the Chinese military tent, Shaodianbao asked: "Do you really want to fight slowly? The Ninth Army Corps did not fear the dead and wounded generals. ”

"I'm afraid!" Ding Kui replied unabashedly, "This is the Zhenwangzhou Theater, and I will recover the four western states in the future, who can I rely on after the elite troops are finished?"

At this time, no one in the tent thought that the coach was a coward, but their hearts were warm, and the coach did not treat them as cannon fodder.

"Steady and steady, waiting for the siege equipment to be sent, recently the equipment department has sent craftsmen to improve a batch of new equipment, so that the rebels can see our technical strength.

The troops of the other Eighth Army are threatening the enemy's food routes, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the enemy troops here will retreat, unless they are willing to die in vain. ”

Ding Kui had an accurate judgment of the battle situation, and the next day the main force of the Second Rebel Army came to Pingcheng and took away the 30,000 defenders in the city.

The battalion of the Second Rebel Army is in Yigang, and Linping City is a little far away from Yigang, so it will be a loss if it is really consumed. The Ninth Army Corps is not good at stubble, and the use of new equipment is like a tiger with wings, and the defenders are under great pressure.

With the loss of two cities directly north of Jiande County, the next step will be to enter the defensive circle of the rebel base camp in the south, with the 4th and 6th Rebel Corps taking over the defense, and the 2nd Rebel Corps ready to support them.

Dingyang City faced by the Eighth Army Corps and Handliu City faced by the Ninth Army Corps both had more than 50,000 defenders, and the city was well stocked, and many civilians were driven to the city to strengthen the city defenses.

Ding Kui's order was: tighten the camp and gradually weaken the city defense.

The 22nd Army was in the east, the 8th and 9th Army Corps were in the middle, and the scouts of the 10th Army were interspersed from time to time, and the battle situation in Jiande County was quite a headache for Xuanyuan Su.

"When will Ding Kui learn to fight steadily?" he held meetings for several days to discuss countermeasures.

Pu Liao, the commander of the Second Rebel Army, also listened to orders at the headquarters.

He analyzed: "Ding Kui has won several battles with the advantage of high-end combat power, but our army has contracted its defense and concentrated high-end combat power to rescue in time, so that the enemy army cannot find a breakthrough, but the enemy's battle line has been lengthened, and the strategic points that need to be defended have increased." ”

He pointed to the sand table and said: "Liyang County, Kaiqu County, Zangwushan Fortress, etc., these places have to be stationed with large troops, otherwise it is easy to be attacked by our army." ”

Qiu Bo, the commander of the rebel Fourth Army, said: "The Northern Route Army is not coming so quickly, and the enemy may still send elites to attack Jiande County in the short term. ”

Gong Yuchen retorted: "Kaiqu County and the fortress of Zangwu Mountain are not far from us, so there is no need to wait for the Northern Route Army to come and attack. ”

"The enemy's 8th, 9th, 10th and 22nd Army Corps are gathered in Jiande County, and it would be good if we could hold it. ”

Qiu Bo represented the "withdrawal faction" of the Southern Route Army, and the call for Xuanyuan Suxue Kui to withdraw his troops was growing louder and louder.

The withdrawal of the army preserved the strength of the Northern Route Army, which everyone can see clearly, after the fall of the fortress of Zangwu Mountain, some corps commanders began to worry that the Southern Route Army would be surrounded and annihilated.

The three elites of the Shaodian military gathered, forming a huge pressure in the hearts of the rebel generals.

"Ding Kui likes to fight without damage, and he doesn't want the three elite legions to be too much of a drain on our hands, and the recent performance is obvious, and we must make good use of this. "Xuanyuan Su has been familiar with Ding Kui's past battle examples.

He was a little empty in his heart, Yang Feng led the Seventeenth Army to Xingbang City, whether Yang Kui could rush over and drag Ding Kui was a problem, if Ding Kui came to beat him, it was hard to say how long the Southern Route Army could stand.

The sixth, seventh, and giant shark legions under his command have some combat effectiveness, and although they can't win against the three elites, they can at least hold on for a while.

The remaining 2nd and 4th Army Corps could only play an auxiliary role in this situation.

"Why don't we learn from Ding Kui?" Gong Yuchen opened a new line of thought, "Didn't Ding Kui say a word, we can use his way of playing to beat him." ”

"Well, yes, you elaborate. Xuanyuan Su felt justified.

Everyone else is thinking about it.

"Concentrate high-end combat power and elite troops to sneak attack a strategic location. "Gong Yuchen learned very thoroughly and completely copied Ding Kui's style of play.

Many people showed expressions of deep approval.

"Then which strategic location should be attacked?" asked Xuanyuan Su further.

......

Dou soybean meal woke up at dusk as usual and climbed the outer wall of the East Fortress at night to inspect it.

Even if there was no request from above, she did it, the most dangerous time for a military fortress is at night, not to mention that yesterday there was intelligence that an unknown number of enemies landed on the north bank of the Xijiang River, not far from the east fortress.

When the Fifth Legion first came to the fortress, they were busy cleaning it.

Many of the enemy were killed in that surprise attack, and the combined elite troops did not have time to dispose of the corpses, but only partially restored the fortifications.

The enemy army is also a native of the country, and Dou soybean meal did not throw the corpses into the mountains and fields, but burned them one by one to ashes and put them in jars and buried them. Some of the relics that could identify the owners were gathered and placed in a special storehouse, waiting for relatives to claim them after the war ended.

The soldiers on both sides have their own masters, and they have no deep hatred for each other, and they still have to live on the land of a kingdom after the war, and both sides are more humane in dealing with the remains of the fallen soldiers.

It took two days to wash away the blood stains from all parts of the East Fortress, and it is said that after that, a red tide appeared on the West River, which flowed through the East Fortress.

One soldier said, "I hope my blood will not flow to the Xijiang River in the future." ”

The work of reinforcing the fortifications has not been completed to this day, and the big men have taken too heavy a shot, and the garrison alone has been completely destroyed, and most of the bricks and tiles have been burned, and they have been reduced to rubble at the slightest touch.

It took tens of thousands of soldiers to move a few days to bring enough stones from the mountain to fill the gap in the fortress, and the fort's defense strength was restored to more than eighty percent.

Some things can't be done with a large number of people, and must be done by craftsmen, but the East Fortress is too far away from the base camp to recruit craftsmen from nearby towns for temporary use.

"Inform the 44th Division, put more empty lights, the wind direction is very good tonight, blowing to the east, you can observe the airspace farther away. ”

Dou Dou Meal watched the sky get dark and hurriedly arranged the lighting task.

Similar to the Kong Ming lantern, the empty lantern is made of paper and bamboo strips, which can fly into the air and last for a period of time, but it is easily affected by the weather.

The fortress is not very worried about ground attacks, and is most afraid of enemies flying in the sky, so the wartime regulations have the principle of early warning and early detection, in addition to the magician on duty, air lighting is also an important part.

Boom, boom, boom, one after another rang arrows relayed to the fortress from a distance.

"Here, all the army pay attention!" Dou Dou Meal became nervous.

The outlying outposts will only shoot when they encounter an enemy, and there is a warning that the enemy will attack the eastern fortress in the near future.

Beep, beep, a sharp whistle reached the depths of the fortress, and the soldiers, who were ready to sleep, hurried back to the barracks and quickly put on their armor......
