"Before the exercise, I had a detailed private discussion with your Excellency, and I strongly advised him to preserve his strength before the commander-in-chief sends troops. One division cannot fight against a country, and the significance of defending a county is greater than that of defending a water fort. I think he can listen." Ding Kui specifically talked to Zhang Jie.
"Judging from the recent movements of our country's scouts, the enemy wants to squeeze our activity space from north to south. In a few days, the enemy will have larger operations." Fei Ze stayed with Ding Kui as a staff officer, and Liu Yu returned. Hengfu City presides over government affairs.
"Well, a large number of garrison troops have been added to Silver Leaf Town. They should be drawn into a line from east to west and pushed southward to prevent us from interspersing ambushes in villages and towns. This move is quite stable." Liang Chong also analyzed from the intelligence.
"Using a good soldier against a strange one. It seems that Le Pi is good at the method of strange and right. We cannot underestimate him." Ding Kui felt the pressure.
"Judging from the fact that he spent a lot of money to redeem Le Yun, he is not a person who is prone to making mistakes. He would rather spend some money than fall into someone else's hands. The series of defeats in the past few days were within his acceptable range. Through these failures, he He is constantly familiar with us and adjusts his tactics step by step. He is really a difficult guy." Fei Ze first analyzed the opponent's coach.
"Our advantage is that we are sure to win when we have strong individual combat capabilities and equal or slightly less troops; the opponent's advantage is obviously that they have enough troops, can withstand multiple defeats, and can defeat them before we defeat them. Defeat us.
We can win many times but cannot lose once. They can defeat many times but only need to win once. Now we must be more cautious than the enemy. I suggest that everyone retreat to the royal outpost in the hope that new fighters will appear." Liang Chong. Give your own opinion first.
"Judging from the current situation, the space for the cavalry to play is getting smaller and smaller. It is indeed necessary to retreat to the royal outpost and wait for the fighter planes; the terrain of Kumu Town and Yeliu Town in the southernmost part of Juyang City is complicated, and the elite infantry can still fight with the enemy. After struggling for a while, if it doesn't work, you can retreat into the swamp to repair." Fei Ze did not agree to retreat entirely.
Liang Chong knew this truth in his heart, but he could not say it out of his own mouth. The first brigade would benefit the most from simply letting the cavalry retreat.
"We are elite infantry when we dismount!" Feng Liang heard the implication.
"Waste!" Ding Kui did not support his senior brother, "The cavalry is dismounted and fighting in the mountains? Do you want the military to laugh at me? The cavalry retreated to the royal outpost and replaced the special operations battalion; the first brigade retreated to Nanqiu County, Zhang Your Excellency needs you even more. There is a tough battle to be fought over there; their troops will follow me and look for opportunities to eat up another enemy force."
Ding Kui was more capable than Fei Ze and sent the first brigade to the county town.
Liang Chong turned to Feng Liang and said: "The prince-in-law is right, the county and city need more cavalry brigade. After all, the main target of our people is Chunlu Bay Water Village, and the real battle has not yet begun."
Feng Liang is Ding Kui's senior brother and the captain of the 201st Division, so he can only accept Ding Kui's decision.
Watching the cavalry go away, Ding Kui asked: "Aren't you leaving?" Liang Chong put his shoulder on his shoulder and laughed, saying: "Let me be lazy, I won't have any rest when I return to the county."
"Haha, brother, you will have a hard time following me. I have no reward for you."
"Let me kill a few more enemy soldiers as a reward! In fact, only by staying here with you can I help you to the greatest extent. If you are in trouble someday, you won't just stand by and watch, right?" Liang Chong stared into Ding Kui's eyes.
"Try my best!" Ding Kui aimed a punch at Liang Chong's chest, "Don't underestimate me, sir, we still have a lot to learn from him."
"hope so!"
...
The 4th and 6th Divisions advanced into Hot Spring Town, followed by the Feihu Division, and the garrison in Yudi Town had been replaced; the Iron Beast Division captured Mingyue Town, with the remnants of the 11th and 12th Divisions behind them as reserves; Gong Junqin led the 9th and 10th Divisions to occupy Feisha Town, and behind them relied on the 7th and 8th Divisions stationed in Baini Town.
As expected by Ding Kui and others, Yue Pi sent 50,000 men to push from east to west and south, with 30,000 to 40,000 men behind him to support him, using a small force of 100,000 troops to compress Ding Kui's space for movement.
The villages connecting Feisha Town, Hot Spring Town, and Mingyue Town also have military camps built by our own people, and a large number of sentries are deployed. Not to mention people, even a rabbit can hardly pass through our own defense lines.
Le Pi and Ji Man are still in Juyang City and are no longer worried about Ding Kui's surprise attack on the city.
"Hahaha, Le Shuai is worthy of being a person whom the Queen Mother relies on. A simple formation left Ding Kui with nowhere to go." Jiman learned from his staff that Le Pi's tactics were beginning to take effect.
"Your Highness, Ding Kui has no choice but to retreat. They can retreat into Hengfu City or escape into the secret passage in the swamp. One thing is certain, they are not willing to take risks with the few troops they have. Defending Hengfu City is their last resort. Purpose." Le Pi learned a lot of information when he was cleaning Juyang City.
"Leshuai, do you think our army can capture Hengfu City?" Jiman knew that Shaodian Luan was in that city.
"This matter is quite difficult." Le Pi immediately shook his head, "People from the Military Intelligence Department have visited the outskirts of Hengfu City. They cannot deploy troops there. Even if we use attrition tactics, it is estimated that the fight will take several months. Our army is not ready before It is not advisable to go and attack."
"I didn't expect that there would be such a place in the Great Swamp. It would be much cheaper for Ding Kui. It is said that Hengfu City houses hundreds of thousands of people. How long can their food last?" Ji Man was very unwilling.
"Ding Kui started preparations half a year ago. It is conservatively estimated that they can hold on for a year, not counting the harvest from the cultivated land in Hengfu City."
The people in our country's Military Intelligence Department are not simple either. They cannot get accurate information, but they can collect useful intelligence from related information.
Le Pi took a deep look at Ji Man and said: "The next focus is to welcome the main force of the North Route Army and prepare for the capture of Nanqiu County. We only need to block the exit of that small town. After we capture Nanqiu County, we There’s plenty of time to clean it up.”
"I just received a message that the vanguard of the Northern Route Army has set off. We need to prepare the military camp and fodder. The rest will be arranged after they arrive." Jiman was responsible for liaison with the country. He informed Le Pi of all the court's decisions.
"Lengshuipo Camp was prepared for them. Recently, the food collection team collected fodder from the occupied towns. It should be enough for the Northern Route Army for three months." Le Pi anticipated the needs of his country's regular army.
"Report! Urgent report from the front!"
"Come in."
"Your Majesty, sir, enemy traces have been found between Feisha Town and Hot Spring Town, and the outlying outposts have been attacked."
"I know, let's go down."
Ji Man quickly asked: "Thief Ding came to die?"
"It doesn't matter, the palace lord will deal with it himself. There are 40,000 troops in those two towns. The Flying Tiger Division is waiting for them to come and attack. If it is not a feint attack, they will not be able to escape!"
Le Pi's confidence comes from careful arrangements. Not only does Gong Jun sit in Feisha Town, but Lang Chun is there to protect him; Galant is in Hot Spring Town and can fly to support Gong Jun at any time.
The only master knight who invaded Giant Sheep City was in Mingyue Town. Zhan Jie protected the Iron Beast Division from attacks by level six warriors. He knew the situation in Feisha Town, and there was trust between the three towns.
The eagles communicated with each other so that they could allocate troops to deal with Ding Kui in time.
In response to this news, he went to the south of the town and walked around to see if there was anyone ambushing outside Mingyue Town, so as not to fall into Ding Kui's plan of seducing people in the east and attacking in the west.
"I was too careful. How could Juyang City have so many troops to attack from the east to the west?" Zhan Jie made sure there were no enemies outside Mingyue Town before walking back.
As soon as he walked into the town, he heard the whistle that meant an enemy attack. His heart skipped a beat: How did he get into the town?
A red cloud appeared under his feet, carrying him to the place where the whistles were the densest, which was the temporary headquarters of the Iron Beast Division. The Zhan family practiced the Qi Dou Qi technique, which could be transformed into the shape of a cloud.
That's right, Ding Kui is leading a dozen people to raid the headquarters of the Iron Beast Division. Those who come with him are specially selected masters, each of whom has a combat power of level five or above.
The division commander of the Iron Beast Division was lying in a pool of blood, with his head missing from his body. Judging from the cross-section of the wound, it was the head of an owl with a sword.
Although the officers and soldiers of the Iron Beast Division were wearing sophisticated armor, they encountered a group of extremely powerful guys and could not form a battle formation in the small space in the town. They were killed one by one by Ding Kui and others, and Mingyue Town became a Shura field.
"How brave! Ding Kui, if you can come today, don't even think about leaving. Keep your life!" Zhan Jie suddenly felt that he had been tricked. He was so angry that he was about to attack Ding Kui with a tremble of his hand. Suddenly,
A green light lit up before his eyes, a green shadow flashed in front of him, and then a black shadow flew towards his face.
Zhan Jie quickly blocked with his sword.
Boom, a loud noise.
A figure flew out quickly and hit a wall, smashing a human-shaped hole in the wall.
Phew, a red cloud flew out of the hole and shot toward the green shadow.
"Ding Yu! You've been hiding for a few days, and now you're here to attack me! Don't forget your identity as a great martial artist!"
It turned out that Zhan Jie was knocked away by a blow, and he could see clearly that the green figure was the legendary Ding Yu, Ding Kui's personal bodyguard, who had not appeared in the first few days of the war.
"You didn't see me because of your bad eyesight, and you blamed me for a sneak attack? Grandpa, I went out to do some errands. What do you mean by hiding for a few days? You came to sneak attack on my house while I was away. Just leave me here!"
Ao Yu had his hands on his waist and his attitude was very arrogant. After saying this, he kicked off his feet and flew into the hole.
"Wow, that guy seems to be a little fiercer again, letting the transformed fighting spirit hit him." Ding Kui raised his sword to defend against the enemy while turning his head to watch Ao Yu's fight.
It turned out that Ao Yu traveled for several days at a stretch and finally returned to Juyang City on the third night after his country's invasion. He found a large number of his country's warships in the river, and found that some warships were as powerful as him.
Therefore, he chose to sneak ashore without anyone noticing, searching for Ding Kui's scent all the way, and finally found Ding Kui in Yeliu Town.
Seeing the return of powerful thugs, Ding Kui immediately planned a beheading operation to attack in the east and west, and first selected the elite Iron Beast Division of the Gong family.
(A problem occurred in Chapter 948. The special operations battalion should have 800 people. This has been revised.)
