Chapter 364: Thirty-six Thieves
In the Military Mansion of Lonely Cloud City, on a huge sand table conference table, Xue Ziyi sat in the first place, and Liu Ning sat next to Xue Ziyi. The rest of the people who could sit at the conference table were also the generals of Lonely Cloud City.
The leader of the generals is naturally Xu Xinghua, who looks fifty or sixty years old, of course, fifty or sixty years old here does not mean that his age is really fifty or sixty years old, but refers to what it looks like when he is fifty or sixty years old in the human world.
It's hard to say what the actual age is. Sitting opposite Xu Xinghua is the second-in-command here, Bu Yuanji, who is in charge of the forward battalion.
Compared with Xu Xinghua's old and steady attitude, Bu Yuanji is just a young man who looks like he is only in his twenties, with impatient colors on his face from time to time, and he looks bad-tempered.
In fact, there are not many people who have been fighting on the battlefield all year round and have a good temper, but after a long time, they will always be steady and no longer show so obviously.
After stepping into the conference room, Xu Xinghua has been telling Liu Ning about the things around this Lonely Cloud City, as a general who was once in charge of the overall situation here, Xu Xinghua's understanding of the overall situation is naturally far better than Feng Tairan.
Xu Xinghua finished telling the general situation around him, and said to Xue Ziyi: "Dashuai, these are our situations here, according to my original idea, we should attack the smallest city here, attack this city with thunderous means, and then use this as a base point to slowly map the other two cities." ”
"In a month at the earliest, at the slowest in a year, the four cities here will be taken by us! ”
On the sand table, the terrain line near Lonely Cloud City came out. It's a huge canyon with only two entrances. An entrance is right here in Lonely Cloud City.
The other entrance is Qingyuan City, the second largest city here, with 300,000 troops!
The other two cities are much worse, only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and more importantly, the three cities combined, the number of generals above the ground level is less than ten, according to the current intelligence, a total of eight.
Just two more digits than here in Lonely Cloud City, the three cities combined, and they barely resisted Lonely Cloud City.
However, when Lone Cloud City really relentlessly dealt with a city, the situation was afraid that it would be different.
Xu Xinghua looked at Xue Ziyi and said, "Dashuai, if you don't have any new plans, then continue according to my plan." ”
Xue Ziyi really had never encountered such a situation, she had some thoughts in her heart, but they were incomplete. So Xue Ziyi said to Liu Ning: "Teacher, what do you think." ”
Several generals glanced at Liu Ning in surprise, originally Liu Ning followed Xue Ziyi's side, they thought it was a pro-soldier or something, but they didn't expect it to be her teacher.
Liu Ning pondered for a moment and said, "General Xu, can you tell me more about the thieves here?"
Xu Xinghua glanced at Liu Ning strangely and said, "Does this adult want to start with thieves? Thieves are not easy to provoke, the thieves here are not like thieves in other places, they are just petty fights." ”
"The thieves in our place are quite troublesome, and there are a total of thirty-six thieves in the northwest region, and the strongest of the thirty-six giants are on par with us, with hundreds of thousands of servants. ”
"We have two teams of thieves between the four cities here, one is ranked thirty-second out of thirty-six thieves, and one is slightly higher, ranked twenty-seventh. ”
"The ranking is not high, but the strength should not be underestimated, obviously the two thieves have 10,000 to 30,000 or 40,000 people, in fact, the appeal in the secret does not know how, and they are scattered in several cities, even us, it is difficult to find them. ”
"Whenever you make up your mind to exterminate them, these thieves will always disappear without a trace, and at most they will only surround and suppress some little ones. ”
Liu Ning tapped his fingers on the table: "Then does General Xu have a way to contact the leaders of these two bandits?"
Xu Xinghua shook his head: "No, the leaders of these thieves are very thieves, let alone us, it is very difficult for their ordinary gang members to meet." ”
Liu Ning sneered in his heart, he really wanted to contact the thieves, how could Xu Xinghua have no news, they are the real snakes here, no matter how strong the so-called thieves are, they can't be stronger than the real army, otherwise they still need Xu Xinghua to sit here?
There must be high-level thieves in the city, and no matter how bad it is, they will collect money, otherwise where is it so easy to escape the encirclement and suppression of the army?
I don't know who it is, according to Xu Xinghua, he has been in charge of the overall situation here "temporarily" for decades, how can it be that there is really no news, I just don't want to say it.
Liu Ning thought for a while and said, "According to my idea, I can first come up with something that can attract these bandit leaders, and then when they all come, I will catch them all." With the help of these bandits, they are attacking other cities. ”
Liu Ning looked at Xue Ziyi and motioned for her to take an idea. The first level is just that, it is his own heritage, and Xue Ziyi really can't help in many places.
The second level is the ability that the Wheel King must master, and the military power is not only the Wheel King, but also a compulsory course for every qualified ruler.
Xue Ziyi also thought for a while before saying, "I think what my teacher said is reasonable, you can use this as a basis, and the next key target of attack will be Qingyuan City." ”
Bu Yuanji immediately stood up, he didn't seem to be satisfied with the new marshal, and his tone was not very good: "This is not good, not to mention the others for the time being, what can attract the leaders of these thieves?
"And it is far more difficult to attack this city than the other two, in case other cities come to help, our plan will be in vain, I still agree with General Xu's plan, Xu Xu Tuzhi, I can't care about the gains and losses at this time. ”
Xu Xinghua glanced at Bu Yuanji: "General Bu, how can you talk to the marshal!"
Bu Yuanji took a deep breath and sat down, but his eyes still revealed dissatisfaction.
Liu Ning moved his hand, took out a small bottle, and opened it gently, and a pill full of vitality was revealed, and he took it back after showing it to everyone.
Liu Ning smiled lightly and said, "What General Xu said, the only daughter of one of the two bandit leaders was seriously injured. I happen to have an elixir here to treat serious injuries, and I guess the thief will be very interested in spreading the news. ”
Xue Ziyi said: "This matter has been settled like this." General Xu, you have been here much longer than me, and you must know a lot about Lonely Cloud City, so I will leave this matter to you. ”
Xu Xinghua glanced at Liu Ning with complicated eyes, and said, "Good handsome, you will live up to your mission!"
Anyway, Xu Xinghua received the news that Xue Ziyi was the marshal appointed from above. Things still need to be done on the bright side.
If the strength of the new marshal is not good, Xu Xinghua does not recommend making some special moves, after all, this is the territory he has been operating for decades.
Lonely Cloud City, as the name suggests, is firmly separated from the motherland behind it, and it is really a lonely city outside the territory.
