When everyone in the conference room heard this, their eyes immediately lit up, and they all looked at the map hanging on the wall.
"From the Imperial City to Saibei, we must go through Yucheng. Let's set the blocking point at Qixia Mountain. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides, making it easy to defend but difficult to conquer!"
Li Yang pointed to the map and continued.
"The terrain here is perfect for setting up an ambush. We arrived early, occupied the mountain highlands, and set up a trap. No matter how many people and horses there are, we can't get through."
"Now that the imperial court is at war with Saibei, it will not easily turn against us. It is legitimate and reasonable to practice road closure. Your Excellency is so clever!"
"The only variable now is Hu Yidao. Hu Yidao has a hot temper. If he orders a forced invasion, what should we do? Should we fight or not?"
A group of general soldiers spoke one after another, and their tone of voice was completely different from before, and they no longer resisted and objected.
"Hu Yidao is in power and is used to being ruthless. His nine regiments are also the best among the best. They never take any local army seriously. They will definitely force their way in, so our Shanhe Army must all be dispatched to fight with absolute force.
The military strength and absolute strength will intimidate him and dissuade him from the idea of forcing his way in."
Li Yang said calmly, "I am ordering the 12th Route Army of the Shanhe Army, as well as the Guards Battalion, Forward Battalion, Xiaoqi Battalion and other battalions with 2.2 million troops to march out of Yucheng the day after tomorrow and occupy the main roads in Yucheng. Each department must
Arrive at the designated location before 6 a.m. on Wednesday!”
"yes."
The generals stood up, their voices were loud, and their momentum was overwhelming.
After the meeting, Li Yang went to Zhou Tong to give Zhou Tong a clear reply.
"Li Dutong, can you really help us in Saibei?"
Zhou Tong opened the door and let Li Yang in. Before Li Yang could sit down, he said impatiently, "Sir, it's not that I don't believe in your promise, but helping Saibei is tantamount to conspiracy!"
"Brother Zhou, since I promised you, I will do it."
Li Yang sat down and poured a cup of tea, "I just held a meeting and issued a formal order. Our Shanhe Army will gather heavy troops in Yucheng to intercept Hu Yidao's Nine Groups. We will never let the Nine
The big group rushed to Saibei to join the battle!"
"Thank you Li Dutong, Li Dutong is righteous and my benefactor in Saibei!"
Zhou Tong was overjoyed and excited, "Then I will return to Saibei now so that the Marquis and his wife can rest assured."
"The password of your radio station has been cracked, and the telephone lines to the outside world have been cut off. You can only go back."
Li Yang did not persuade him to stay, "I will arrange a car and people to escort you away now. Those bastards from the Imperial City Division are still in Qingyang City. It is not safe for you to leave by yourself."
In this way, Luo Tong returned full of joy. Because there were military vehicles from the Shanhe Army, the passing checkpoints were allowed to pass directly. He returned to the front line around nine o'clock the next day. In this area of the front line, the military vehicles of the Shanhe Army were useless. However,
He was familiar with the terrain, walked mountain roads and trails, bypassed checkpoints, and returned to Saibei smoothly.
"Master Marquis, madam, I'm back."
Luo Tong went directly to the Hou Mansion and met the Zhenbei Hou and his wife.
"How about it? What did Li Yang say?"
Yu Xiuying asked urgently.
"Li Dutong has promised to block the way for Hu Yidaojiu's regiment to go north and never let them reach the north of the Great Wall. It was also Li Dutong who sent people to escort his subordinates all the way back. Li Dutong is really righteous!"
Luo Tong replied truthfully.
"Okay, great."
Yu Xiuying couldn't contain her joy when she heard this.
Next to him, Chu Tianpeng also showed a rare smile on his resolute face. His nerves were highly tense these days, but now he can finally relax.
If Li Yang didn't send troops to help, and Hu Yidao's nine major regiments cooperated with Wang Zhangxuan's seven king cavalry and six heavenly regiments, he would definitely lose to Saibei.
"Is this guy Li Yang okay?"
Chu Tianpeng smiled.
"Hey, you're boasting now. Didn't you always scold others before?"
Chu Qiaoer said angrily.
"Damn girl, get out of here!"
Chu Tianpeng's eyes widened.
Chu Qiaoer stuck out her tongue, not bothering to show off to her old man. The old man felt more confident and started to curse. Yu Xiuying glanced at the father and daughter and couldn't help but feel happy and laughed out loud.
...Friday, Yucheng.
Hu Yidao personally led the team, and the convoy of the Nine Groups set off to Qixia Mountain in a mighty manner.
"Hu Shuai, Qixia Mountain is ahead of us. After passing Qixia Mountain, the road is easy to walk. The whole journey is at high speed. We can reach Saibei before dark."
The middle-aged man in the car laughed.
This man's name is Liu Benwei, he is Hu Yidao's confidant, he has an official rank of second rank and is a member of the army.
"When we get to Saibei, I want to take the credit and take the lead over Chu Tianpeng."
Hu Yidao said coldly.
His daughter was demoted from a first-class imperial concubine to a sixth-class imperial concubine, and was even banned in the palace. He was eager to perform meritorious service and help his daughter restore her position as a concubine in the harem.
"Hu Shuai... Hey, why did the car in front stop?"
Liu Benwei suddenly noticed something strange and said in surprise.
When Hu Yidao heard this, he looked around and was also startled. He was quite surprised. His military discipline was strict. He didn't order a break. How could the team stop?
"Report, we encountered a checkpoint and they prohibited us from passing."
The signal soldier ran to the car and reported.
"What is it, a checkpoint blocking the road?"
Liu Benwei's face was full of disbelief, "Who is so brave and dares to stop our convoy of millions of people? The governor of Yucheng doesn't want to do it anymore?"
"The opponent is not from Yucheng. It seems to be the Southwest Mountain and River Army."
The signal soldier replied truthfully.
"The Shanhe Army is far away in the southwest, why are they here?"
Liu Benwei frowned and said angrily, "Are the Shanhe Army so ambitious as to have fun? Besides, they are full and can hold on, so what can they do to stop us?"
Hu Yidao understood the situation, but his face was as dark as coal. He opened the door and walked out. Liu Benwei also quickly got out of the car and followed, accompanying him.
Sure enough, a group of men and horses blocked the opposite road. The battle flag was flying, and the words "mountain and river" were clearly written on the battle flag. There were not many people and horses in sight, only about five thousand.
At this moment, his forward battalion commander Yu Haifeng was negotiating with the other party.
"We are under the command of Hu Shuai. We have been ordered to rush to the front line in northern Saibei to carry out emergency combat missions. You should get out of the way as soon as possible."
Yu Haifeng clasped his hands behind his back and spoke indifferently, noncommittally.
"I'm sorry, I can't give way to you on this road. We, the Shanhe Army, are conducting exercises here. I have an order from the commander-in-chief that all personnel in the important training area are not allowed to enter."
Zhou Huosheng replied loudly.
This week Huo Sheng was originally the flag owner of the Fire Flag among the six major banners of Xueguang Mansion, and is now the captain of the Shanhe Army's forward battalion.
"You are all the masters, and you have to listen to Hu Shuai. Don't mention to me that your family is the master!"
Yu Haifeng scoffed.
"If I don't let you in with my special code, I won't let you in. Don't you understand human language?"
Zhou Huosheng had a hot temper. Seeing that he despised Li Yang, he immediately became angry and cursed fiercely.
"you!"
Yu Haifeng was furious and immediately drew his sword.
"Back off."
At this time, Hu Yidao stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "I am Hu Yidao. Now I order you to get out of the way immediately. I will only give you ten seconds. When the time is up, I will directly order an attack and kill you all."
