At 5:30 in the evening on December 14th, the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao came to the civil pier outside Yidao Fisherman Village.

Salute before you.

Su Buqing said: "Sir, before you come, my subordinates have arranged for the Imperial Guard soldiers to board the ship and wait.

50,000 Imperial Guard soldiers landed at the Yidao Military Port, the Yidao Naval Barracks, the Yidao Civilian Port and the troop carriers provided by the Coastal Defense Fleet.

Everything is ready for departure, just waiting for you to board the ship and issue the order to set off."

Qu Mao nodded, glanced at Xinping beside him, and asked: "Xinping, have you contacted Su Yan, Xuande and Liu Qianhui? Have the orders you conveyed been passed on?"

Xinping made a gesture of invitation and said: "Sir, please board the ship first. The Holy Land is still at least six hours away from Yancheng Port and Nancun Naval Military Base. My subordinates will report to you in detail during the journey.

The news has been passed on, but there are some minor changes. My subordinates changed the meeting point. It is not the Lianhe Marquis King's City, but the Lianhua City, which is 178 kilometers away from the Lianhe Marquis."

While boarding the medium-sized warship, Qu Mao waved his hand and slashed it down, letting the navy captain who had been observing him know that he had given the order to go out, and then asked Xinping: "Oh? The Lianhe Marquis King's City has been lost?"

Xinping followed Qu Mao a few steps and said: "No, but we are under siege. My subordinates were worried that Lady Su Yan would be attacked by the enemy if she went straight to the Lianhe Marquis King's City, so they informed Lady Su Yan to go to the area still controlled by our army.

Lotus City is waiting for you.

Lord Wei Qubing, Lord Xuande and Lord Liu Qianhui also led a direct attack on Lotus City with 10,000 reinforcements from the Imperial Guard."

Even at night, with only a full moon hanging in the sky, the entire sea still looked extremely dark, but Qu Mao refused the suggestion to rest in the cabin and instead stood on the deck of a medium-sized warship.

Su Buqing and Xinping had no choice but to stand on the deck to accompany Qu Mao. Qu Mao asked: "Xinping, do the heroes of the navy who are responsible for escorting the army have the talents and skills to speed up sea navigation or night navigation? When can we arrive at Yancheng on the main continent?

Hong Kong or Namchon Naval Military Base?”

Xinping smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, only the main heroes of the navy have the talents or skills you mentioned. Now the main heroes of the navy are fighting on the coastline of the Jili Kingdom. The second phase of the operation is about to begin. Today Sylvia

·Oshen has just transported all the garrison soldiers to the battlefield.

There is a favorable wind tonight, and we expect to arrive at Yancheng Port before 1 a.m. tomorrow, so you don’t have to be too anxious and can go to the cabin to have some rest.”

Qu Mao shook his head and said: "I have never slept on the voyage from Yancheng Port or Nancun Naval Military Base.

Before I made it clear what I just said, you changed the meeting place without permission, and I thought the city of Lianhe Marquis King was lost."

Xinping smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, the Monell Kingdom brazenly launched an invasion of the Lianhe Kingdom at 1 o'clock in the morning on December 11th. They advanced very quickly and appeared in Lianhe County at 9 o'clock in the evening on December 13th.

Under the city of King Hehou.

Our reinforcements are only the 1,000 third-level princess escorts sent by Lady Su Yan before returning to the Holy Land for a meeting, and the 2,000 third-level princesses sent by Lady Su Yan before returning to the royal city of Prince Liusu on the evening of the 12th.

Guard troops and 500 fourth-level guards.

Including the 2,500 reinforcements sent later, they had just entered the Lianhe Marquis King's City, and discovered the Moner Marquis' invading troops outside the city.

At dawn on December 14, the fourth year of Tianxuan, the royal city of the Marquis of Lianhe was surrounded by the invading troops of the Marquis of Moner.

According to intelligence reports from the Lianhe Marquis King's City, the Moner Marquis invasion force's siege strength reached 10,000 fifth-order heavy cavalry, 40,000 fourth-order light cavalry, 100,000 third-order warriors, and 100,000 second-order warriors.

level warriors, with a total strength of 250,000.

This does not include the troops that the Monell Kingdom has deployed in other cities of the Lianhe Kingdom. My subordinates estimate that the total strength of the Monell Kingdom's invasion force may exceed 500,000.

Although the Holy Land has been deploying troops from all walks of life to assist the Lianhe Kingdom on the battlefield, after all, the gathering of troops has not been so rapid."

Qu Mao frowned, but unfortunately, although the moonlight was bright, Xinping and Su Buqing did not notice the change in Qu Mao's expression, and were still describing the military affairs of the Lianhe Kingdom in detail.

Xinping continued: "But now that the Imperial Guards have dispatched another 50,000 people, and combined with the 10,000 Imperial Guards who have gone to the ice for reinforcements, we can get 60,000 troops, mainly high-level warriors. I believe there will be no breakthrough."

The siege of Nairhou Kingdom and the siege of Lianhehou Kingdom’s royal city shouldn’t be a big problem.”

Qu Mao asked: "How far is the Lianhua City where we are about to gather from the Lianhe Marquis King's City?"

Xinping said: "Sir, Lotus City is 187 kilometers away from the Lianhe Marquis King's City. Even if Su Yan and others rush to Lotus City in advance, there will not be any safety problems."

Su Buqing also said: "Sir, Wei Qubing's reinforcements are also moving to Lotus City and will definitely arrive earlier than Su Yan and others. Please don't worry about the safety of these adults.

My subordinates believe that the main continental operations are currently in the rest stage. The main continental combat troops will rest tomorrow. Your Excellency, you can take advantage of the second phase of the operation that has not yet begun to inform Lord Zhao Pan to mobilize 100,000 to 150,000 high-level warriors for reinforcements.

The battlefield of the Lianhe Kingdom.

As long as there are 100,000 more high-level warrior reinforcements, my subordinates are confident that they can expel the invasion forces of the Monell Kingdom from the entire territory of the Lianhe Kingdom within 2 weeks."

Qu Mao waved his hand and said: "Not only do we need to repel the invading troops of the Monair Kingdom, we also need to capture at least one-third of the territory of the Monair Kingdom, and none of them border the Mughal Empire.

territory.”

Su Buqing smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, I am worried about the lack of troops."

Qu Mao said: "You don't have to worry about military strength.

Xinping, is there a town or city closer to the Lianhe Marquis Kingdom? I plan to rest the army in a place closer to the battlefield, and then cooperate with the Lianhe Marquis Royal City defenders inside and outside to eliminate the invading troops besieging the city in one fell swoop."

Xinping said: "Sir, there is a small town called Lianzi Town between Lianhua City and the King's City of Lianhehou. It is only 17 kilometers away from the southeast gate of the King's City. However, Lianzi Town does not even have a city wall recognized by the system chief god, only a three-dimensional wall.

Meter-high rammed earth city wall.

At present, Lianzi Town is still in our hands, but if you rush to Lianzi Town in person, your safety may not be guaranteed.

A single charge by the heavy cavalry of the invading force could overwhelm the city defense of Lianzi Town."

Qu Mao thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's go to Lotus City to meet Su Yan first. We must start from Lianzi Town before the war starts."
