Chapter 932 The pre-war meeting in fog shadow county
"My country is ready to take action and is starting to lay the groundwork for excuses," Fei Ze analyzed.
"Hey, the method is so clumsy." Ding Kui shook his head and sighed.
"It shows that they are emboldened. Your phrase 'a weak country has no diplomacy' is so insightful! Our country's military strength is not inferior to ours. Now our country is caught in a battle for the throne. The country is divided into two. If there is a conflict with our country,
Definitely at a disadvantage.”
Fei Ze is often surprised by his boss's occasional wise words.
"My lord, I have summoned my subordinates. What do you want me to do?" Xue Chong came after hearing the news.
Ding Kui warned: "Keep the patrol boat far away from the border, be careful not to be caught by the masters sent by your country, and move more covertly."
Juyang City sent quasi-combatants from the training camp to patrol the Tongyuan River in small boats. This was also a water warfare drill for quasi-combatants, so their soldiers were almost all-powerful.
Wuying County is a county in the northeast of our country. Thanks to the Tongyuanjiang Trade Road, half of our country's import and export goods are loaded and unloaded here. Its economy and population rank among the top in our country.
The county governor, Jie Lin, was directly appointed by the country's finance minister and did not need to be approved by Bingjiangzhou Mu. He was a county governor with relatively independent military and political power.
Jie Lin, who was in his forties and in his prime, was a rising star in the Government Affairs Council of his country. He had a profound background and was generally ignored by county guards at the same level. However, one day in late August, Jie Lin personally went out of the city to greet a group of people.
The team members and horses were treated like this when they were brought to Jiangzhou.
Jie Lin, who was wearing a white silk gown, held up his hands to the young man who had just dismounted and said, "I pay my respects to Your Highness."
"No gifts, no gifts." The young man enthusiastically stepped forward to support Jie Lin, "I am participating in a nominal capacity this time as a private person. I have no formal official position. Sir Jie does not need to be too polite."
"The eldest prince is really on errands for the country, and he can afford to be treated as a subordinate." Jielin's face was thin but full of energy. "There is a secret order from above, requiring the subordinates to fully cooperate with your actions. Although you are not temporarily posted, you can deploy the Government Affairs Council
When it comes to the manpower and material resources of the commander-in-chief, he is still the subordinate’s superior.”
After saying this, he greeted the people behind Jiman one by one.
Those who came to Wuying County with Jiman were brothers Le Pi and Gong Jun, as well as three sixth-level combatants, Grant, Zhan Jie and Lang Chun. As for the two marquises, they did not come.
"We're a little early. Let's wait here. Let's go to the city in the evening." Ji Man looked up at the sky and saw that it was evening now.
"No, no, I'll prepare the carriages for you." Jie Lin turned around and waved, and four extended carriages came from behind. "I wish you all could hide in the carriages."
Jiman's operation requires a high degree of secrecy and tries to avoid the spies of various countries, especially the spies of Shaodian Kingdom. They cannot arrive at Wuying County in full view of the public.
The four carriages drove directly into the backyard of the Sheriff's Mansion, and Jielin specially cleared two courtyards for Jiman and his party.
"First let Mr. Le Pi, the commander of the secret annexation Jiangzhou theater, tell us our plan." Jiman arranged a secret meeting.
The secret annexation of the Jiangzhou War Zone was not made public. Only relevant people knew about it. His identity was always concealed to the outside world. For example, Le Pi was still the Marquis of Beiguan Ting.
Le Pi stood up and said: "The navy's warships have gathered at the water village of Wuying County, and they can set sail just waiting for the personnel and materials to get on board;
The private army of Gonghou and I, with a total population of 150,000, has been prepared and moved to the junction of Wuying County and Beiguan County, so that it can rush to the water village at any time;
As for the missing part of the baggage, please ask Mr. Jie to help solve it, especially the siege equipment ordered earlier, which our team did not carry."
"Please rest assured, Marquis Le, all the supplies have been prepared and shipped to the water village of this county. They will be ready for shipment as soon as your department arrives." Jie Lin answered while meeting Le Pi's gaze.
Including the navy, nearly 300,000 people participated in the operation. Most of the food needed to be purchased in Wuying County. In addition, Jielin was under great pressure from the siege equipment. At least tens of thousands of people had to be levied in labor, but he still completed it as scheduled.
Prepare.
"We plan to set off on the last day of August," Le Pi continued, "and arrive at Juyang City before September 5th. During this period, we need to submit a letter of challenge to the Shaodian State Senate." This was meant for Ji Man.
"The day after the warship set off, someone submitted a letter of war in Nanjing City. At this time, arrangements have been made, so Leshuai can rest assured." Jiman said calmly.
"Due to the recent strict sealing of Juyang City, the local information cannot be sent back for the time being, but as soon as our fleet arrives, someone will come on board to give us the information." The person who spoke was the great archer Lang Chun.
He was responsible for the military intelligence of the secret annexation of the Jiangzhou war zone, and the spies dispatched to Juyang City were also his subordinates. Among the people present, he had the most practical combat experience.
"Master Laurent." Le Pi nodded slightly to show respect for the six-level combatants. "We don't expect that Ding Kui will allow us to land easily. The landing process may be a bit bumpy, and we will have to trouble three masters to assist."
"What can Ding Kui do to resist an army of 150,000 people? What capital does he have to harass our troops for landing?" Grant disagreed. He was also a magician who had been on the battlefield and had sufficient understanding of land and water warfare.
"According to existing intelligence analysis, Ding Kui has two great martial arts masters under his command; I have information provided by Cao Guo's friends, and it is very likely that there is a great archery master working for him.
Judging from the number of level six combatants, the opponent is no less than us, not to mention they don’t fully know the three of us, so it is possible to send troops to harass our landing."
Before Le Pi could speak, Lang Chun answered Galant's question. In order to find out the strength of Giant Sheep City, Lang Chun did not hesitate to use Cao Guo's connections, and finally got him some useful information.
"An army of 150,000 with three level six warriors is luxurious enough. I didn't expect that a small giant city might also have three level six warriors. It seems that our opponent is quite interesting." Zhan Jie said with a smile.
In order to ease Grant's embarrassment, after all, the forbidden magician belonged to Jiman, which was a way of giving face to the eldest prince.
"Ding Kui is famous for his cavalry operations. There are one or two thousand knights in Juyang City, plus their sixth-level combatants. They dare to charge against thousands of well-formed troops and have enough confidence in the slow-moving landing force.
." Le Pi tried his best to explain to Grant in a gentle tone.
"Huh, if they dare to come, I will destroy them." Gallant's face was slightly pale.
"Are you still afraid of the cavalry when the palace lord is here?" Jielin didn't know much about Juyang City, but he knew about Le Pi and Gong Jun.
The specialty of Yidu County is black iron, but the most famous one is Yidu County’s unique black iron fine armor, which is one of the best fine armors in Shenyuan Continent.
Gong Jun's private army has a black iron elite heavy infantry division, known as the "Iron Beast Division", which can be ranked among the top ten infantry divisions in his country.
The Iron Beast Division has a very strong defensive power. Because it is a private army in a county, the composition of its soldiers is stable, and its skilled battle formations are sharp. The only drawback is that its mobility is a bit low, so it is more suitable for defensive operations.
This type of heavy infantry division is good at fighting against cavalry and archers. When Jie Lin saw Gong Jun present, Le Pi was still worried about the enemy's cavalry, so he felt strange.
Gong Jun saw his name being called, so he said: "The cavalry in Giant Sheep City are all composed of knights, and the lowest is a fighting blade knight. A large group of cavalry formations has super lethality, and the black iron fine armor is really not necessarily defensive.
It can be defended." He definitely does not want his elite troops to be used as cannon fodder, and even if he can defend himself, he will say that he cannot defend himself.
"Haha, the military strength of a city is stronger than that of my county." Jie Lin laughed at himself.
"I'm afraid that's true." Jiman took over the topic, "Ding Kui is the prince-in-law of Shaodian Kingdom, and the eldest princess of Shaodian Kingdom is in Juyang City. What's more, Ding Kui is the son of the protector of Shaodian Kingdom, and his private army is bigger than a
It’s normal for the county to be strong.”
"No wonder." Jie Lin looked astonished and stopped talking. He was not too fond of the eldest princess, but the Protector of Shaodian Kingdom knew about it and had heard about the reputation of the Eighth Legion.
"It doesn't matter if there are three masters here. I will let my spearmen land in formation as soon as possible, and the Iron Beast Division will follow to cover the archers ashore." Le Pi continued to introduce the planned subordinates, "As long as 30,000 people are in formation,
I believe that Ding Kui will naturally recede.
After the defensive position is completed, subsequent troops can find a suitable location to build a camp.
After the camp is built, our armies can take turns attacking the city, and it is estimated that we can capture Juyang City within five days."
This plan has been discussed in Beiguan County by Ji Man, Le Pi, Gong Jun, Zhan Jian, Guan Sui and Lang Chun. The only people present were Jie Lin, Galant and Zhan Jie, who were not very clear about it.
"Isn't there another Hengfu City?" Grant didn't care about Giant City at all.
"The war between the nobles has ended after taking the Giant Sheep City. If we continue to attack, we need further instructions from His Highness." Le Pi turned his eyes to Jiman.
"After it is confirmed that we have captured Juyang City, our father will give us a decree. Before that, our goal and mission is to capture Juyang City. We don't need to consider other places."
Jiman's mission ends with the successful capture of Juyang City, and the subsequent events may not necessarily have anything to do with him.
He hopes to continue to lead all operations, but it depends on his performance during the capture of Juyang City. If he performs well, he can continue to lead, otherwise he will not have a share.
"This plan is robust and comprehensive. With His Highness's strategizing, Marquis Le's on-the-spot command, and Marquis Gong's assistance, I believe it will be a success." Jie Lin applauded, stroking his hands.
This secret meeting in Wuying County can be regarded as a pre-war meeting for the noble war between Le Pi and Ding Kui. Our country finally reviewed the plan to capture Juyang City.
Jiman and others have been operating carefully, trying to eliminate accidents as much as possible. The entire plan has been going relatively smoothly so far. Judging from the reactions of all parties, Juyang City does not have the strength to resist.
There are no secret spies from Shaodian Kingdom in Wuying County, at least no people from the Security Bureau, but there are many pairs of eyes watching in the countryside of Wuying County.
A fat man with a mole on the corner of his right eye hummed a tune and walked out of the bank in Ruxi Town. His fat right hand patted the bulging money bag around his waist from time to time. It seemed that he had made a lot of money in this small town northwest of Wuying County.
