The heavy rain showed no signs of abating, and the long procession on the official road did not slow down the march.

A group of men and horses ran up the hill on the side of the avenue.

The leading general pointed into the distance and said, "The marching speed is even faster, the forward troops must arrive in Weiguo County tonight to assist the Long family in preparing the rail car." ”

Someone next to him immediately shouted: "Tell the whole army, go at full speed, don't hold back, get on the rail car and have enough time to rest." ”

Then the general smiled and said, "I heard that Ling Gongzi was promoted to chief of staff of the National Protector Army, I forgot to congratulate you." ”

"That kid is just lucky, Ding Kui opened the back door for him, what's the good news? With his real strength, he won't be able to be the chief of staff in another ten years. The officer who gave the order had a smile on his face.

It was false to say that he was unhappy, but he was still quite relieved.

Now the chief of staff of the National Protector Army is Liangchong, this officer is naturally Lianggong, the general is Gu Jun, and it is the 21st Army that marches in the rain.

The 21st Army received Ding Kui's order to rush to the front line in Zhongwangzhou and organize an attack on the rebels in the shortest possible time.

Gu Jun didn't dare to slack off, and the moment he saw the military order, he sent the 201st Division, the forward force, and ordered the whole army to rush to Zhennan City through Weiguo County, and use Zhennan City as the base camp to attack the rebel territory.

"Lord Liang is humble, Liang Chong came out of my legion, I don't know what kind of ability he has. Don't worry, he'll give us a long face. "He has faith in Liangjing.

"I hope so. In contrast, the subordinates hope that the rain will stop soon, so that everyone can save some energy, and the next thing is a long-term battle. Liang Gong's gaze returned to the group.

Gu Jun looked up and saw that the raindrops falling above were blocked by an invisible barrier.

"Yes, in the past, the rebels were strong, we just held on, but now we have started a counteroffensive, and we won't look back if we don't see the West Sea. Hehe, maybe there's a chance to go to your house and sit down. ”

"Yes!" Liang Gong nodded, "You need to fund the rebuilding of the Tianji Mansion. ”

"Hahaha, ask your boss for a bribe, you are the first person. ”

......

The former base camp of the northern defense line.

"Subordinate Yang Feng, meet the boss. ”

On the main seat of the tent sat a tall man with hair and beard like steel needles, who was the commander of the rebel Haishan Prefecture Theater of Operations.

"General Yang, please get up!" Yang Kui raised his left hand, "You lead your troops to surrender, just to get sixteen to twenty or five legions for this commander." ”

His descendants were the 18th and 19th Army Corps, and later Yang Zhao ordered Haishan Prefecture to form the new 16th and New 20th Army Corps, which were all sent to the north of Zhenwangzhou after the war, plus the 17th Army Corps that had just surrendered, which happened to be all connected.

"My king is far-sighted, everything is successful, and the inferior rank is the arrangement of the king......" Yang Feng sang praises for his merits.

"He is worthy of being the former chief of staff of the Eighth Army Corps. "You came just in time, how should our army act next?"

"The subordinates are dull, but they are commanded by the adults. Yang Feng couldn't figure out what Yang Kui meant for a while.

"If you ask you, you will say that your abilities are clear. Kui's tone was neither salty nor light.

He is the number one general under Yang Zhao, the commander of the staff, and has a pivotal position in the Xingbang City court, and is the absolute boss in the eyes of the new generals.

"Come on. He took the initiative to beckon Yang Feng to walk towards the sand table.

"From the opinion of our subordinates, our army should turn to the south, concentrate its forces to attack the enemy's southern defense area, and assist the friendly forces in taking the enemy's southern defense base camp. Yang Feng's fingers slashed down from north to south.

"Oh?" said Kui propped his hands on the edge of the sand table, "Why don't you take the northwest pass of Zhenjing before the enemy reinforcements arrive? ”

His eyes were on the capital of Zhenjing, and there was someone else in charge of the south of Zhenwangzhou, which was not in his consideration.

"The mobility of the Tenth Army Corps is much higher than that of our army, and with the First Army Corps to hold the pass, it takes five times the strength to attack it, and the difficulty of marching into Zhenjing is higher than that of going south...... "Yangfeng seeks stability and advocates steady and steady fighting.

"We concentrate our forces to the south, the enemy army can also concentrate its forces to defend, and it is not easy to attack city by city, county by county, it is better to go straight to Zhenjing, storm the enemy's command center, and force them to make mistakes. ”

Luo Kui instinctively resisted Yang Feng's suggestion, and no generals from the regular army liked Yang Feng.

"As you know, my subordinates served in the Eighth Army and are very familiar with the defense of Zhenjing. The terrain of the seven passes outside the capital is narrow and easy to defend and difficult to attack, the standing troops and armaments are sufficient, and the communication and roads between them are smooth.

The magicians of the Magic Federation can be teleported to any pass, and our army's magic power is not superior, and it is difficult to capture any place in a short period of time, including the support of nearby towns. Think again. "Yang Feng is very attentive to his ideas.

"Just because you are familiar with them, you should know their weaknesses, don't you want our army to take Zhenjing as soon as possible?"

Yang Feng sighed secretly in his heart, but said on his lips: "My subordinates are willing to do their best to assist the adults!"

"Okay! You lead the 16th and 17th Army Corps to attack immediately and knock on the door of the capital for Ben Shuai. ”

......

There are seven passes outside the capital of Zhenjing, the north is the autumn leaf pass in the east, and the north is the town demon pass, in which the town demon pass is facing the northern defense line.

Now there are two large armies stationed inside and outside the Demon Suppression Pass, and the two legions that have just been withdrawn from the north.

Chen Yu and Shao Diantai met again with the demon suppressor.

"I heard that we have all been incorporated into the counterinsurgency theater and are under the command of Commander Ding Kui, and Commander Wang Deng is rushing to inspect us. "Chen Yu led a regiment to garrison the Guannai.

"You don't have to look at me like this, I am a defeated general under Lord Ding, no one knows about this matter, no one knows about it, but the enemy is currently the tenth army I and the Tenth Legion will not disobey Lord Ding's military orders, but why is Lord Wang coming? Shouldn't Lord Ding come to the front line in person?"

Most of the casualties of the Tenth Army Corps outside Nanjing City were caused by Ding Kui, but fortunately, the Legion replenished new recruits, and Shao Diantai only needed to do the work of a small half of the officers and soldiers.

"It's normal for the boss to sit in the capital, but it is said that Lord Ding is not in the capital, this lord is good at sneak attacks, do you think he will sneak behind enemy lines?" Chen Yu had never touched Ding Kui at all, and he was very curious.

"The Eighth Army is stationed outside the capital to guard the gate for the country, and it stands to reason that Lord Ding is more suitable for fighting at home, and it is not wise to sneak behind enemy lines. "Shaodiantai tends to Ding Kui to focus on the Eighth Legion, and various tactics revolve around the Eighth Legion.

"The Eighth Army is far south of the Xijiang River, and it will take at least ten days to come at full speed, and the rebels will not wait for them, and besides, that Yangfeng can be regarded as a home battle. Chen Yu frowned at the mention of Yang Feng.

"I don't dare to enter the pass because I am afraid that Yangfeng will attack other passes, and the Tenth Army must maneuver outside the pass, closely monitor the whereabouts of the enemy troops, and support the Akiba Pass in the east or the Tinghai Pass in the south at any time. If the Yangfeng dog thief does not die, it will be difficult for me to be peaceful. ”

Shao Diantai's worries are no less than Chen Yu's.

......

In Xima City, Xiping County, the Fifth Army camped outside the city, but Liu Yi and his wife took their own soldiers to live in the city.

The Magic Guild specially cleaned a courtyard to receive the leaders of the five legions.

"Bring someone here. Liu Yi ordered his own soldiers.

After a while, the soldiers brought an emaciated man.

"The last general, Hui Meng, visited Lord Liu. "The man was dressed in civilian attire, but his gestures exuded a military habit.

"General Hui, how did this happen? Come, sit down and talk. Liu Yi recognized Hui Meng.

"I'm ashamed. Hui Meng sat down on his side, apparently wounded.

"The last general empathized with Yongshuai back then, and finally tasted the taste of being betrayed by his own people, that was really ......" He couldn't think of words to describe it.

"You and I have known each other for many years, this is the Magic Guild, don't speak so politely, if you have difficulties, just say, I'll support you if something happens. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi and Hui Meng have a lot of friendship.

"Alas, the Fourth Army was defeated, Meng Shuai was killed in battle, the 7th Division was completely annihilated, and I and some of the soldiers were captured. Originally, I couldn't see your brother, but then Yang Feng suddenly let us go, but there was only one person missing, and it was probably what he begged for. ”

"Meng Shuai died in battle?" Liu Yi didn't know the news, "Who is so big in your account that you can beg Yang Feng to let you go?"

"Jiang Xiong. ”

"Who is Jiang Xiong?" Liu Yi had never heard of it at all, "Could it be that family? No, that family didn't leave a male lineage." ”

Hui Meng said bitterly: "Yes, he was originally an illegitimate child, and now that he has lowered Yangfeng, the family will not admit it, I will go back and say that Yangfeng because he released us, who will believe it in the Commander's Mansion?"

7 The Seventh Division was completely annihilated, and he and some of the people escaped intact after a night, and the Ministry of Military Justice must hold on to it, and it is not clear whether this matter is not caught by Yang Feng.

Expecting the Jiang family to shake out the scandal to explain it for him, that is even more impossible!

"I see. Liu Yi believes in his friend, "Yang Feng is good at conspiracy, and the identity of the illegitimate child alone is enough to make a fuss." In this way, Jiang Xiong still has some affection for you, and he is willing to beg Yangfeng to let you go. ”

"The question is, how can I go back and explain to Chen Shuai?" Hui Meng didn't dare to go back to the First Legion directly, he and his subordinates might be arrested, if Yang Feng used some more means, they couldn't tell if they had grievances.

"Now the commander of the counterinsurgency war zone is Ding Kui, if you go to him, he won't care about the Jiang family's affairs, and he won't kill innocent soldiers. "It's also inconvenient for Liu Yi to take in Hui Meng and the others, after all, the commander of the clan is still there.

"Ding Kui is the boss?" Hui Meng did not have a magician by his side, and he did not receive a military order.

"That's right, I heard that he has a gap with the Ministry of Judge Justice, only he dares to take you in and give you a report of defeat and escape, and Chen Shuai will also turn a blind eye and help hide the past.

I'm under Shaodian for the time being, and the Ninth Legion is in Xiping County, so if you show up publicly, you'll have to go to him. He hates Yang Feng so much, he will definitely not trust you. Liu Yi spoke out about his difficulties.

The two corps act together, and it is easy to be chaotic without a unified command, so it is inevitable to divide the main and secondary, and the commander of the Ninth Army Corps, Shaodianbao, is the main one, and he bears the responsibility of containing the defeated army.

"Where is the boss now?" Hui Meng couldn't do better.

"I don't know, I guess I will either go to the Demon Suppression Pass, or I will come to Xiping County. ”
