"Lord of the city, in front of your subordinates, it is better to call it a lowly position. Ding Kui could somewhat guess what City Lord Jiang thought, but he was reluctant to get too involved in the Jiang family's affairs now.

"Hehe, it's okay, Captain Ding is reasonable, let's settle the relationship in private. Jiang City Lord insisted on having a personal relationship with Ding Kui, "The military situation has changed a lot recently, you should pay more attention on the battlefield." ”

"Oh, can my lord inform me of the military situation?" Ding Kui's ears moved, they were only a few division-level battles near Wanggui City, and they only accounted for a small part of the battle situation in Huashan County, so it would be of great help to know more about the military situation.

"Well, I'll tell you more about this. "City Lord Jiang was very cautious and didn't dare to directly reveal the military information to Ding Kui on the street. He took the first squadron back to the city lord's mansion and arranged for servants to boil water for cooking, cleaning and feeding the war horses.

The soldiers could remove their armor and wash and eat hot meals, but they could not sleep.

Ding Kui followed Jiang City Lord to the study, taking Ao Yu alone.

"The 11th and 12th Divisions and the 196th, 197th, and 198th Divisions of the 20th Army Corps caught up with the main force of the Ninth Army Corps of Meng 20 miles south of Kaiwu City, and carried out harassment and raid tactics around the enemy, relying on the mobility of cavalry to stalemate with the enemy in the area between Kaiwu City and Wanggui City. "City Lord Jiang read a military situation first.

"Oh, the Second Legion of Lindi has formed a cavalry assault department, which can bite the Ninth Army of Meng to death. With 50,000 cavalry, even if you want a strong man to break his wrist and send troops to block it, it will not work without three or five divisions in the plains, and the main forces of the enemy and us are estimated to have to fight. Ding Kui had a deep understanding of the use of cavalry, and he understood Fan Yi's intentions at once.

"This is just delivered, sent from Kaiwu City, they received a message from Fan Yi, the commander of the Second Army Corps in Lindi, that the main force of the Second Army Corps in Lindi can arrive in Kaiwu City before this evening, hoping that nearby cities can send auxiliaries to assist in the battle when launching a general attack on the Ninth Army of Meng. City Lord Jiang picked up the latest military information on the table.

"Evening. The 19th and 20th Divisions can arrive here before noon, and if they are lucky, they can defeat the main force of the 84th Division of Meng in the evening, and if they are lucky, they can get stuck on the way for the main force of the 9th Army of Meng to retreat. Ding Kui smelled the smoke of gunpowder before the war.

"Meng's Ninth Army is in a hurry to rush back to Xiahangguan, and must not want to do more entanglement, the battlefield will definitely continue to move to the southeast, and the area around Wangguicheng will inevitably become one of the main battlefields. I don't think you and the 19th and 20th Divisions on the ground need to go anywhere, just stay in Wangguicheng, at least you can collide with the enemy's right flank, and then I can organize auxiliaries to assist you in the battle. "City Lord Jiang is also a knight, and he is not unfamiliar with leading troops to fight.

"City Lord Jiang has this meaning, you can tell General Miao, and I can introduce it on my behalf. "Ding Kui did not claim to be humble in private, which was the result of the repeated requests of the Jiang City Lord.

"Tsk, I'm a magistrate, and it's not easy to take the initiative to bring up this military strategy. Hoping that the army will stay in the local area is the will of all local city lords, so General Miao will think that I am for the benefit of Wanggui City, of course, this factor is not impossible, so it is more appropriate for Shizi to make suggestions to General Miao.

If General Miao approves and the prince takes the initiative to ask to contact me, the matter will be finalized and everyone will be happy; if General Miao does not agree, he will not do anything to you who makes suggestions, and the commander of the first army should have the habit of listening to various opinions at the same time. "City Lord Jiang didn't say it explicitly, did he Miao and dare to treat you Ding Kui?

"General Miao's task is to annihilate the first part of the Meng army and threaten the right flank of the Meng army. Now that the four brigades of the Meng 84th Division have been surrounded and annihilated, barely annihilating a part of the Meng army, and being stationed in Wanggui City can also be regarded as threatening the right flank of the Meng army, Jiang Cheng Lord's suggestion is decent. Well, I'll try it, and mention it when I report to General Miao, but in the end it depends on what General Miao means. Ding Kui pondered for a while and felt that things were operational, so he agreed to City Lord Jiang.

The 1st Squadron rested in Wanggui City for less than three hours, and the forward of the 20th Division rushed to Wanggui City, and after learning the news of the withdrawal of the main force of the Meng 84th Division, they did not stop and chased in the direction that the 1st Brigade was pursuing. Their mission is to engage the enemy army, and now that the enemy army is gone, they have to catch up and find the enemy army.

Ding Kui still had to lead his troops to wait for the main force in Wangguicheng, and he could not order the forward of the 20th Division on the ground to send someone to stay behind to replace the first squadron.

Near noon, the main force of the 20th Division and the 19th Division rushed to Wangguicheng.

"Ran away? Sure enough, they were able to send the information out. Miao He's face was a little helpless, "Is the military situation you said true?"

Ding Kui replied: "The city lord Jiang showed the original military information to the lowly position, and the lowly position thinks it is true!"

"The main force of the cavalry has fought with the Ninth Army of Meng, the main force of the enemy is seriously threatened, and they are worried that the main force of our army will catch up, and most of them will fight and run. Well, the main force of the Meng 84th Division is not far from the enemy's main force, and most of us will not be able to catch up this time. Brother Xuanyuan, what do you see?" Miao He said to Xuanyuan Feng.

"Even if we catch up, it will take time to attack, and the enemy's main force may appear and reinforce at any time, and it will be us who will be caught off guard at that time. Captain Ding's suggestion is a sound one. The change in the military situation also surprised Xuanyuan Feng.

"Okay, then let the pursuing force withdraw, and we will camp twenty miles east of the city, where we will be stuck in the enemy's retreat. Captain Ding went to talk to City Lord Jiang and asked them to send people and provide some supplies to assist our department in building a military camp. As for the auxiliaries, we can't use them for the time being, so let Jiang City Lord prepare first and wait for the commander's military order. Miao He did not hesitate and quickly changed his previous plan.

The assault department composed of the cavalry of the 2nd Army Corps and the 20th Army Corps on the ground is good at movement warfare, and it will definitely not fight positional warfare with the Meng army, and it is difficult to accurately predict where the battlefield will unfold after entangled with the main force of the Meng army. Five divisions can form an attack cluster, and several attack clusters can be separated, and the flames of war must be burning everywhere around the main force of the Ninth Army of Meng, and wherever there is a flaw, there will be a fight.

There may be troops on both sides of the enemy near Wanggui City at any time, it is good that friendly troops appear, they can join forces to fight, if there is an enemy army, it will be troublesome, Miao He is not an adventurous person, Ding Kui's suggestion on behalf of Jiang City Lord is in line with his meaning, plus Ding Kui's own aura, he pushed the boat down the river to adopt it, and gave Ding Kui a suggestion.

However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, many things are involuntary, and plans are often used to modify, and before Ding Kui left to carry out the military order, there was news from the scouts that the front was fighting.
