Taodong County and Shuanggu County are separated by a field bank, but this field bank has been fortified over the years and is more than two meters wide and high, like a dragon's spine running across the two places.
Taoshan Territory is easy to attack but difficult to defend, with Baili City as a buffer. Ji Yi only plans to build a Taodong camp in Taodong Territory.
The defense focus of Valan Province is Shanggu County, Yannan County, Xieling County, and the Huanghe Defense Line.
Lin Yi's goal is to capture the Valan province this year. There is no need to build the inner city wall so tall. Once the border is breached, it will be useless to build the inner city wall as tall as possible.
Zhang He sent people to convey the news, preparing to send troops to attack Nanhe County before the Lance family army arrived, and eat as much as they could, in order to prevent the main force of the Lance family and the local military forces of Nanhe County from converging and forming an effective threat.
It seemed that there was no potential for war on Lin Yi's side for the time being, so Lin Yi sent Xu Shu and Shi Qian to Zhang He's army to listen to them, and Qi Qi to Zhang Liao County to listen to them.
Taodong Territory is backed by Taoshan, and the stone materials were collected very quickly. It only took three days to collect the necessary materials for the construction of the intermediate city. When Lin Yi used city wall construction skills to complete the reconstruction of Taodong City.
Lin Yi immediately received a reminder.
"Your power reaches a county and meets the conditions for establishing a county. Randomly summon a famous founding general."
The sky above the newly built Taodong City suddenly turned red, a thunderbolt sounded in the clear sky, and the sky opened like a spider web.
A human wearing a red brocade robe and a sword at his waist rushed out of the crack in the sky and then hung high in the air.
"I am Zhou Yu, the great fire god of the Han Dynasty, with flames from all directions, listen to my orders! Come! -" I saw this man, pulling out the long sword at his waist, pointing the tip of the sword towards the sky, and his words were extremely domineering.
Lin Yi was ecstatic when he heard the other party's name, Zhou Yu! This person can be said to be the number one person in Soochow. If Zhou Yu were alive, Zhang Liao might not be able to fight to become a god.
The energy of the elements is not visible to the world, but because of Zhou Yu's appearance, the endless fire elements boiled directly, just like a child seeing his biological father and rushing towards Zhou Yu in the sky crazily.
Because the fire element was so strong, the entire sky seemed to turn into a sea of fire.
Ten minutes passed, Zhou Yu slowly descended from the sky, and the fire element slowly began to retreat.
"Zhou Yu, meet my lord!" Zhou Yu gathered his momentum and immediately saluted Lin Yi.
"Gong Jin, I have admired your name for a long time. With your help, I have nothing to worry about!" Lin Yi stretched out his hand to help Zhou Yu up.
The war is approaching, and Zhou Yu's arrival will undoubtedly give Lin Yi a shot in the arm.
"I would like to share my worries with you, Lord." Zhou Yu replied respectfully.
Only then was Lin Yi able to observe Zhou Yu. As expected from historical records, he was a handsome ruffian, 1.8 meters tall, with a fiery red diamond-shaped mark between his eyebrows, making him look like a fairy.
After checking Zhou Yu's information, Lin Yi was even more shocked. Zhou Yu looked stronger than Wang Yue.

Zhou Yu, the first governor of Soochow, was one of the sixty-four famous generals of Wu Temple.
Because when Zhou Yu died, Sun Quan had not yet proclaimed himself king, and his official position was relatively low. Even the governor-general was not a specific official position, but a title equivalent to the military marshal.
But Zhou Yu is definitely worthy of the title of the first general in the founding of Soochow.
When Sun Ce was in his weak years, he helped Sun Ce assess Jiangdong and laid the foundation for the future Soochow.
When Sun Ce was assassinated and the political power of the six counties in Jiangdong was unstable, Zhou Yu led troops to attend the funeral to stabilize the situation in Jiangdong for Sun Qun.
Crusade against Huang Zu, killed Deng Long, gained Gan Ning, and captured many prisoners, which greatly enhanced the strength of Jiangdong.
In the Battle of Jiangxia, Huang Zu was captured, a major enemy in Jiangdong was eliminated, and he also avenged the Sun family.
In the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu became a god in one battle, burned Chibi, and defeated Cao Cao with a small victory and a large one. It can be said that without the Battle of Chibi, there would be no three-part world.
In the Battle of Nanjun, he defeated Cao Cao and captured Nanjun. The famous Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, but he was actually talking about Nanjun.
It is a pity that Zhou Yu died of illness just when he was preparing to go to Yizhou. Otherwise, Zhou Yu would have had the ability to change the direction of history.
Not to mention whether Yizhou is advisable or not, after winning the Battle of Chibi, Soochow could completely defend the river, subdue Shanyue, develop Yizhou, and at the same time capture the Southern Barbarians.
At this time, Liu Bei was busy marching into Yizhou, and Cao Cao was still licking his wounds. Liu Bei was attacking Yizhou, and Cao Cao was the most anxious.
Without the defeat in the Battle of Hefei, Soochow's military strength could be preserved, and it would be able to capture the Southern Barbarians and threaten Yizhou. As long as Lu Meng captured Jingzhou, Liu Bei's Yiling defeat to Lu Xun would happen again.
When the time comes, dividing the world into two will no longer be just talk.
Lin Yi took Zhou Yu back to the temporarily established Taodong Camp, then took out the map and briefly explained the current situation to Zhou Yu, as well as the approximate strength of the various forces.
"Soldiers defend the territory, and generals will seize the city. This is a world where strength is the most important." Zhou Yu praised loudly.
"Brother Gongjin, in your opinion, there may be something missing." Lin Yi asked humbly.
"With the strength of my lord, the Dauser family and the Lance family are not a big concern. The ogre family, the bear people in the Doro province and the lion people in the Ziluo province are the big problems." Zhou Yu opened the map and showed it to Lin Yi.
Analyze it.
"If my lord takes over all the Valan provinces, it will definitely attract the attention of the three parties. The ogre clan is busy taking over the Heero and Zero provinces and has no other thoughts for the time being, but the Doro and Purple provinces have to be on guard.
"
"Does Gong Jin have any good plans?" Lin Yi quickly asked.
Lin Yi has always taken the path of defeating tens of thousands of people with force. In fact, this path is also very easy to use. However, as the territory expands and the troops are dispersed, they gradually become unable to achieve their goals.
The land of a county is not yet obvious, but if the Valan Province is captured, it will take a day for the cavalry to rush from Shanggu County to Yannan County.
The infantry takes three to five days. This is because the soldiers under Lin Yi's command are all epic-level units.
The time required from Shanggu County, Yannan County, to the Huanghe defense line is doubled.
"The Lion Clan and the Bear Clan will definitely not be able to negotiate peace. My lord can guard Yannan County in the south to defend the Ziluo Province, and Xieling County in the east to block the Duoluo Province."
"At the same time, we can unite with the ogre clan and send heavy troops to the north to the Huangluo Province to disrupt the deployment of the orc alliance and assist the ogre clan to seize the Huangluo Province."
"In this way, the ogre clan will block the lord's powerful enemy from the north, and at the same time threaten the Duoluo Province. At that time, the lord can send his troops south to capture the Ziluo Province and become the hegemon of the south."
Zhou Yu's words made Lin Yi's blood boil, but Lin Yi understood that it was not that easy.
First of all, within the Valan Province, the Dauser family and the Lance family have hundreds of thousands of troops, more than twenty gold-level extraordinarys, and more than a hundred silver-level extraordinarys, which largely offset the advantages of Lin Yi's generals.
Moreover, Ji Yi is isolated and helpless. As local forces, the Dauser family and the Lance family can ask for help if they cannot defeat them, and there is a high chance that other orc lords will agree to send troops.
Although Ji Yi can also form an alliance with the ogres, it is basically impossible to get the ogres to send troops to support, and Ji Yi needs to show enough strength to form an alliance with the ogres.
But if you show off your muscles too much, it will easily cause the ogre clan to backlash. It's complicated and very difficult to do.
"Sigh, our strength is not enough to support such a war. I'm afraid we have to expand our army several times." Lin Yi sighed.
"The battle in Valan Province is a good opportunity for my lord to expand his military strength." Zhou Yu said, pointing to the four counties on the map: Beiyuan, Nanhe, Yannan, and Shanggu.
"When my lord has taken all the Valan provinces, I will go to my lord to convince the ogre clan." Zhou Yu changed the subject and pointed at the Heiluo and Zero provinces.
"Oh? Gong Jin alone can accomplish this?" Lin Yi was a little surprised, wondering where Zhou Yu got the confidence.
In this world, strength is everything. Just relying on words will not work. Although Zhou Yu is powerful, the ogre clan has three god-level masters.
"Of course I'm not the only one, there are them." Zhou Yu pointed to the location of the Stonemen marked on the map.
Lin Yi's eyes lit up, maybe it's really feasible.
Zhou Yu has practiced both martial arts and is very powerful. With a group attack spell, he still has a chance to lead the Stonemen to the Ogres alone.
When the ogre clan's back-up is on fire, coupled with the pressure from the orc alliance, Ji Yi's peace talks at this time have a high chance of success, and there is no need to worry about the ogre clan's rebellion in the short term.
What Lin Yi lacks is precisely time. As long as this time is obtained, Valan Province can be stabilized, the Orc coalition is disrupted, and the plan to send troops to Ziluo Province can be implemented.
Zhou Yu asked Lin Yi some questions in detail, and then went to visit various cities in Shanhe County alone, and also paid a visit to Li Ru.
Compared to Lin Yi, Li Ru has a more detailed understanding of the situation in this world, and of course it is only recorded in books.
After finishing the construction of siege equipment, the cities in Shanhe County began to prepare for spring plowing. Among them, Tiemu County, Qiuhe County, and Baili County were also busy with city reconstruction and construction within the city.
The Deer Tribe in Qiuhe County also continued to move to Longgu County. However, there were so many Deer Tribes and Pig-Head People that construction in the city was not difficult for them.
The heaviest burden is still on the kobold clan in the Ironwood Territory and the Green Goblin clan in the Qiuhe Territory. After the harsh winter, Taylor and Arthur continued to recruit their own clans from Beiyuan County and Nanhe County.
In the harsh winter, many of the kobolds and green demons who had run out of food and could not survive the spring plowing were introduced to Tiemu and Qiuhe counties, which greatly relieved the pressure on the two tribes.
