After Ding Kui was promoted to the master knight, helping Shaodian Luan comb the meridians once can drive away a lot of fire, even if she doesn't comb it within half a year, there will be no problem.

However, Shaodianluan's personality has changed a little, and he has a little temper towards Ding Kui, which is good to others. "That's right, why don't you let her go to Hengfu City?

"These days she is learning to ride in the knights' guild, and she has had special tasks before, and she has never studied systematically. Ding Kui's brain began to hurt.

Captain Wind asked to see him in the living room. Ding Fen ran to report.

If Ding Kui was amnestied, he quickly excused himself and slipped away.

"Senior brother, what's the emergency military situation? So many people outside have left the city. "There is no intelligence sharing mechanism between Giant Sheep City and the First Brigade, Feng Liang must ask if he wants to.

"There is no definite information yet, but as far as we can tell, there will be a large army of our own country in the near future. ”

Ding Kui is very embarrassed now, when his own army has not really fought, he has no way to prove that his territory is going to be attacked by others, and he can't always talk about speculation.

"Can't we deal with them?" Feng Liang has the responsibility of defending the land.

"Senior brother, that's an army of more than 100,000, maybe more. ”

"Then you still give the order to evacuate, is the princess still in the palace?"

"Big brother, why don't I even run away before I see the enemy? I can't afford to lose this person, and your brother and sister also have to take into account the dignity of the royal family. Besides, there are still many people who have not left, and you and my troops are here, at least we have to fight. Ding Kui resolutely does not want to be a coward who runs away.

"You have demolished all the city walls, how are you going to fight this battle?" Feng Liang heard that there were more than 100,000 troops, and his heart was at a loss.

"The soldiers are coming, the water is coming, I have made some preparations before, and now there are eight elite infantry battalions in hand, as well as eight hundred knights and your first brigade, it is not a big problem to fight a field battle. As for how to fight, it depends on the specific situation. ”

Because he knew that the war was imminent, Ding Kui lowered the standard of soldiers, and the would-be soldiers could wear fine armor to assess, so that the pass rate was greatly improved.

Zhou Mu Shaodianxi gave Ding Kui 5,000 sets of fine armor, counting the ones built by Juyang City according to the regulations, sent by the Jiang family and the Long family, Ding Kui had nearly 10,000 sets of fine armor on hand, which was enough capital to form a fine armor infantry division.

Just the current eight elite infantry battalions, not counting the special operations battalions, the combat effectiveness of the private army in Juyang City is equivalent to half of the 201st Division.

Feng Liang left the lord's mansion worriedly, Ding Kui's self-confidence did not infect him, and an army of more than 100,000 people could not be defeated by thousands of people with self-confidence.

The first brigade can still maintain an elite posture under his leadership, but it is unrealistic to reach the level of Ding Kui and Ao Yu at the time, and the combat effectiveness of those two perverts can be worth half of the brigade. Even the former First Brigade did not dare to single out a legion, and Ding Kui's private army could handle a division at most.

Sea Dream Thorn was assigned to a small courtyard, and the lord's concubines could not live with other subordinates. Targeted by her wife during the day, she hid in her room for a long time, but after nightfall, she unexpectedly welcomed the lord.

"Master," under Ding Kui's forced gaze, Hai Mengjian had to change his words, "Husband, don't you have to accompany Madame tonight?

"Hehe, is Luan'er so fierce in your heart, how do you usually feel when you see her?" Ding Kui wanted to confirm what he thought in his heart.

"Well, it's not that Madame is fierce. Haimeng thorn squirmed, "But when I saw her, I panicked and unconsciously felt scared, in fact, she rarely murdered me." ”

"That's it. Ding Kui was basically sure, "Luan'er is gifted with a special physique, which is a rare genius among the children of the royal family, and your physique is also quite special, but it happens to be overcome by Luan'er." It's a congenital restraint, not a grudge between you. ”

"Ahh

"It's not that she hates you, it's just an instinctive reaction of the body. Madame sometimes cares about you in front of me, you see today, the enemy is currently in the present, she wants you to go to Hengfu City to take refuge. Hey, you should meet as little as possible, and your instinctive reaction will naturally be less. Ding Kui found the cause but had no solution.

Hai Mengthorn didn't think much about it, and nodded fiercely, it was not a bad thing to be able to see that terrible lady less.

In fact, she had a question in her heart that she always wanted to ask Ding Kui, was it because of her special physique that Ding Kui liked her? But she was afraid of getting a positive answer, so she decided to hold the question in her stomach.

On the first day of September 4788, in the evening, Nannuma Prefecture received a declaration of war from the Marquis of Beiguan Ting, which his own country had requested to be forwarded to the Senate.

In the declaration of war, Le Pi angrily reprimanded Ding Kui for kidnapping Le Yun and extorting him for his despicable behavior, not only so, but also often sent spies to Beiguan County with the intention of assassination, and recently let the private ships of Juyang City break into their own territory to burn, kill and loot, in short, Ding Kui is said to be a heinous sinner, and now Le Jia wants to start a noble war against the Ding family.

The Marquis of Beiguan Pavilion of his own country fought against the Marquis of Shaodian State to protect the country, this matter is not trivial, Shaodian Xi gathered his staff without eating, and asked them what they thought about this matter.

"What does that Lejia mean by rehashing the old things from a few years ago? "Nannuma Prefecture is very unhappy.

The staff surnamed Li dealt with the complaints of his own military, and replied first: "My subordinates heard that Ding Juma has a private agreement with Chunluwan Water Village, and the private army of Juyang City is responsible for patrolling the southernmost section of the Tongyuan River. ”

"It's just a trivial matter of crossing the border, is it necessary for the military of our country to provoke a war of nobles? Our own navy can't deal with an earl's private army? With the strength of the navy of Jiangzhou, no matter how many ships Ding Juma sends to cross the border, it is not enough to stuff the gap between the people's teeth. "The staff surnamed Kong is a person who understands.

"How much has to do with the current situation in my country, the relationship between the horse master and the military is quite deep, and it is estimated that the Nale family will not be able to do the Ding family in the past, so it has been forbearance until now. "The staff surnamed Wang is the oldest one," Now that half of the 21st Army has gone to Zhongwangzhou, the military strength that the horse master can rely on has been greatly weakened, and the Lejia may have received help from the military of his own country, so he provoked this aristocratic war. ”

"yes. The staff surnamed Li immediately agreed, "Without the support of the military behind Le Pi, he can't beat Juyang City, and the master of the horse will suffer a big loss this time, but his subordinates think that the Le family will not dare to touch the eldest princess." ”

"The western part of our country is in rebellion, and our own country is now sending troops to invade our territory, is the purpose behind it so simple? The staff surnamed Kong thought a lot.

"How is it possible?" the staff surnamed Li immediately retorted, "Don't forget who your own queen is, that is the second sister of the first king, the former eldest princess, who is currently extremely influential in her own country, how could she watch her own country attack our country's idea!"

Shao Dianxi nodded, more inclined to the opinion of the staff surnamed Li, and said: "I heard from the person who submitted the declaration of war that Le Pi has the support of the prince of his own country behind him, and Ji Man is Shao Dianrong's own son.

Although Shao Dianrong is the queen of his own king, he still has the blood of my royal family in his body, at most let his son make a small profit, and it is unlikely that he will be allowed to invade our territory. Take 10,000 steps back and say, if the royal family has an idea, they should also go to Hailin State.

There is no rebellion in our Nannuma Prefecture, which only experienced war a few years ago, and the cities and counties are well armed, and the people still have soldiers to fight; the rebels in Hailin Prefecture have just captured Jinyun City, and the 16th Army Corps has retreated to Zhenguan County for defense, and the southern border is empty.

Ding Juma does have business talents, and he has a lot of thought about governing the territory, and Juyang City has now developed into the most prosperous place in Nannuma Prefecture, even this king is also a little hot, and Lejia should have taken a fancy to this this point. ”

The staff surnamed Wang followed the words of the state pastor: "If the Lejia family wins this aristocratic war, Juyang City will have to pay at least ten or twenty years of commercial taxes to make compensation, which is a huge wealth." The lord can also order the 20th and 21st legions to keep a close eye on the movements of the giant sheep city to prevent their own army from attacking other places, especially to hold the royal outpost of Hump Mountain, so that we can control the war within a certain range. ”

"The Nannuma Prefecture Navy has not yet recovered, and the strength of our own Navy is much higher than ours, can we really control the scope of the war?"

"In this way, Kong Ting, you will go to Nanqiu County as the envoy of this king, supervise this noble war, and notify this king immediately if you find something wrong. ”

Shao Dianxi could also listen to different opinions, and simply sent the staff surnamed Kong to Nanqiu County.

Ding Kui only learned of the declaration of war on 2 September, and immediately ordered all the ships in the city to return to the wharf and anchor in the village, and the old and new wharves were only allowed to enter but not leave, and the banks of the Tongyuan River were put into a state of first-class combat readiness.

The whole territory issued an enemy situation announcement, if you want to protect the safety of life and property, you will move to Hengfu City, and foreign merchants will transfer their property as soon as possible, and Hengfu City will provide temporary warehouses.

The evacuation order for the whole city has not yet been issued, and a leaflet written by Widow Hu swearing to defend her homeland has been circulated in the market, presumably saying that she will fight the invading enemy to the end and protect the wealth of the territory together with the lord.

This trick is rebellious psychological warfare, and it is specially designed for those who don't care who occupies Giant Sheep City. This part of the people was originally reluctant to leave home, whoever called would recognize him as the master, but after reading the leaflets, they had a rebellious mentality, and they didn't follow Ding Kui to defend Juyang City, and rushed to Hengfu City early.

All the private armies in Juyang City have entered the highest state of combat readiness, and the special operations battalion has raised the alert level of the royal outpost and strictly inspected the people and things passing through the outpost; the first to eighth battalions of infantry have been stationed in the military camp of Juyang City, and additional scouts have been dispatched to patrol the Yuanjiang River; the knights of the whole city have gathered in the knights' guild and practiced the temporary cavalry formation day and night; the training camp has distributed weapons and equipment to the quasi-soldiers, and formed a temporary infantry battalion to be stationed in the city defense of Hengfu City, and the identity of all people in Hengfu City has been strictly screened.
