Chapter 511 Final Counterattack, Targeting Deployment
"Ji'an Shaman, leader Langya wants to see you."
Ji'an means perfection in Beidi language.
In the center of the Beidi army, in a large tent decorated with colorful feathers, he sat cross-legged on a high altar, with feathers on his head, tattoos on his body, and bones on his clothes. His body was skinny, but his eyes were bright.
The old man of God.
"Please come in."
Outside the big tent, a tall and burly man, wearing leather armor, holding a spear, riding a snow wolf, with his hair flowing smoothly in the wind, heard the voice of the Ji'an shaman, jumped down and landed on the ground,
He strode open the tent and walked inside.
The big man put his hand on his chest: "Qierdan, I have met the Ji'an shaman. May the gods be with you."
The shaman lowered his head and glanced at the leader of the Langya, stretched out his hand and pressed it softly, squinting his eyes and replied: "Chief Qierdan, who leads the Langya tribe to survive through hardships, the original god of heaven protects you."
After Qierdan got up, he said to the shaman: "Shaman Ji'an, news came from the north of Yinshan Mountain that the snowstorm has stopped. After the warriors of the tribe heard the news, they were homesick and had no intention of fighting. May I ask the shaman, is it
Fight or retreat?”
The Ji'an shaman stretched out his hands, looked at the sky feverishly, and chanted softly: "This is the reward from the gods for our attack on the Central Plains. Only if we continue to attack the Central Plains, will the snow disaster stop. If we stop attacking, the snow disaster will continue. If
If we retreat, there will be more natural disasters waiting for us."
Qierdan frowned and looked up at Ji'an Shaman.
The dragon gods have appeared, Tianshen Mountain has also been affected, and the shaman is still talking crazy things.
Qierdan put his hand on his chest respectfully, bowed his head and begged: "I am just a mortal, and the prestige of the leader is not enough to suppress the collective will of the tribal warriors. I also ask the shaman to come forward and guide the collective will in the name of God.
.”
Ji'an Shaman lowered his head and glanced at Qierdan. Qierdan felt as if a ferocious beast was staring at him, and Qierdan acted more respectfully.
"Okay, I will."
Ji'an Shaman nodded, closed his eyes, and stopped paying attention to Qierdan.
Qierdan wisely put his hand on his chest and saluted, then exited the Ji'an shaman's tent.
Qierdan opened the tent, regained his momentum as a tribal leader, jumped up, and sat on the saddle of the wolf cavalry. He got off the wolf cavalry and turned forward. Nearly a hundred elite wolf cavalry followed neatly.
Behind Qierdan, he followed suit.
Qierdan looked back at the tent one last time and shouted: "Let's go."
…
Changping County, Great Wall Fortress, Marshal's Mansion.
Qin Yun stood in front of the sand table with a serious face, staring at the sand table and meditating. A burst of rapid footsteps sounded from far to near.
Qin Kai opened the door with a smile on his face and walked in.
"Commander, I got the news. The snowstorm north of Yinshan Mountain is over. The Beidi army is probably about to withdraw."
Qin Yun's face showed a look of surprise: "So that's it."
No wonder Beidi's offensive has slowed down in recent days. It turns out that the main cause of Beidi's move south, the snowstorm, is over.
However, I am afraid it is too early to say that the Beidi army will withdraw.
Qin Yun shook his head and said: "Don't be too optimistic. Even if we have to retreat, it won't be now. Instead, now may be the most dangerous moment since our war."
Qin Kai first instinctively retorted: "The root cause of the war has been solved, the Di people have lost their will to fight, and they have suffered heavy losses, so why continue to fight?"
Suddenly, Qin Kai thought of something and exclaimed: "A fight between trapped beasts?"
Qin Yun nodded and said: "The most powerful counterattack is the beast's counterattack before it is about to die. Don't forget that the Di people have two decision-makers, the shaman and the leader. Even if the leader representing the knights wants to retreat, Yuanyuan
It is impossible for the shamans who continue to sacrifice the Di people who died in battle and obtain power from the gods to be willing. At the last moment, they will only become more crazy."
More crazy?
Qin Kai swallowed nervously and heard Qin Yun ask: "Have the reinforcements from the other eight counties arrived?"
Qin Kai said helplessly: "I just received the communication jade charm just yesterday and got in touch. The two closest ones have arrived, and the other six are still on the way."
Hearing that reinforcements from the two counties had arrived, Qin Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as there are reinforcements, this battle cannot be lost.
"It seems that all the armies still recognize me as the army commander."
Qin Kai saw that Qin Yun's expression was no longer so serious, and the nervous look on his face immediately disappeared.
"That is, we are also a royal family after all. In all dynasties, the royal family has been in charge of the army. As the commander-in-chief of the Qin family army, it is only natural for you to lead them."
Qin Yun frowned, glared at Qin Kai and said, "There is no royal family now, so don't talk nonsense outside."
In order to eliminate the aristocratic family, Qin Yi did not even establish the royal family.
However, the power of the Qin family in Weishui was not weakened, but strengthened.
Although the Qin family in Weishui does not have the name of a royal family, it has the status of a royal family.
Regarding this, Qin Yun was not only not dissatisfied, but also very satisfied.
Who doesn’t like making a fortune in silence?
"I know, I'm just saying this in front of you. I'm very careful outside."
Qin Kai knew that he had said the wrong thing and wanted to change the subject quickly. He glanced around and saw the communication jade talisman next to the sand table. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile: "This communication jade talisman made by the head of the family is really amazing."
It’s so small, it’s said to be more than ten times smaller than the communication matrix in the Hou Mansion.”
Qin Yun glanced at Qin Kai.
Qin Yun naturally saw through Qin Kai's little intention to change the topic at a glance, but he didn't care.
Qin Yun followed Qin Kai's gaze and looked at the jade plate the size of the basin on the desk, and said with a chuckle: "The master of the house did things properly. When he sent the communication jade charms, he sent them separately and together, and it was pretty good.
Time allowed our border troops from the nine counties in northern Xinjiang to receive the communication jade talisman at almost the same time and get in touch."
If this set of communication jade talismans were sent to the Qin Family Army first, and then sent by the Qin Family Army to the other Eight Armies, it would delay a lot of time, and may also cause the other Eight Armies to become hostile to the Qin Family Army.
Although Qin Xi is not proficient in the art of war, he also understands the importance of speed. In addition, as a woman, she is delicate and considerate. In Qin Yun's opinion, it is the best to deliver them at the same time, whether it is him or
All military commanders are not dissatisfied.
Qin Kai couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The battlefield is changing rapidly. Fortunately, the master of the family sent the communication jade talisman in time. Otherwise, facing Beidi Lin's final counterattack, we, the Qin family army, would have suffered heavy casualties."
Qin Yun shook his head slightly.
In fact, it is not important how many reinforcements come, but whether they are present or not is what is most important.
With reinforcements, the morale of the army is not low, and this battle will be fought. If there are no reinforcements, the morale of the army is low, and facing the final madness of the Beidi army, Qin Yun is really afraid that the Qin family army will be defeated.
Qin Yun suddenly thought of something and coughed twice: "Ahem, the communication jade talisman was designed by the Holy Emperor. The one we should be most grateful to is the Holy Emperor."
Qin Kai reacted immediately, nodded quickly and said: "Yes, if the Holy Emperor hadn't been far-sighted, careful in his actions, and had no calculations, we would have been passive now, and we wouldn't be in such a good situation now."
You must have gone too far with your flattery.
Qin Yun shook his head helplessly and focused his attention on the sand table again. He suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but frown.
When Qin Kai saw this scene, his heart tightened and he even held his breath subconsciously, fearing that his breathing would disturb Qin Yun's deduction of the battle situation.
Qin Yun suddenly turned around and asked: "I asked you to check how many snow disasters had occurred in Beidi before. Have you found it?"
Qin Kai immediately replied: "I arranged for people to check. I just checked the information last night. There has never been such a big snow disaster in the Beidi grassland in thousands of years."
"Sure enough." Qin Yun seemed to have figured something out and chuckled: "Because there was a spiritual tide disaster before, and Beidi doesn't need a snow disaster."
When Qin Kai heard Qin Yun's words, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Is this what he understands?
"Commander, are you saying that the snow disaster in Beidi is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster?"
Qin Yun raised his head, looked north through the window, looked at the lines of Yinshan Mountain and Namo Lake on the horizon, nodded and said: "If the prediction is correct, this snow disaster should be caused by the group of monsters living on the snow mountain.
."
Qin Kai's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "Commander, you are saying that because the Central Plains has lost the catastrophe of the spiritual tide, Beidi has no possibility of taking advantage of it, and the monsters on the snowy mountains created this catastrophe that covered the entire Beidi grassland.
The snow disaster is just to force Beidi to go south? This, this, is this possible? That is a natural disaster!"
Qin Yun sighed in a solemn tone: "What does the snow disaster in Beidi Grassland mean? Even more exaggerated things are possible... After all, they are monsters!"
Since Qin Yun said this, Qin Kai naturally believed it, but...
"If it's true, then it's too generous. Are the Di people worth the effort?"
Qin Kai expressed doubts about this.
Qin Yun smiled and shook his head and said: "You are not a demon clan, how do you know whether it is a big or small act to trigger a snow disaster? Maybe, for the demon clan on the snow mountain, this move is not a big deal?
"
Qin Kai shook his head repeatedly, saying that he couldn't imagine it.
Moreover, after thinking about what Qin Yun said, Qin Kai quickly found a loophole.
"Commander, if the snow disaster was caused by the monster clan on the snow-capped mountains, why has the snow disaster stopped now?"
Qin Yun shook his head slightly, turned back and glanced in the direction of Luo Jing in the south and said, "How do you know that the demon tribe stopped on its own and was not forced to stop by others?"
Qin Kai immediately realized: "The commander-in-chief means that the Holy Emperor..."
Qin Yun nodded and said with emotion: "I have almost understood the Holy Emperor's code of conduct for this war during this period. The Holy Emperor pursues the principle of king against king, general against general, and soldier against soldier. Everyone has his own duties.
The principles of duty. The Holy Emperor was dealing with the demon clan. The Holy Emperor probably discovered that there was something wrong with the snow disaster, and that there was a demon clan figure behind it, so he personally went to the north of Yinshan Mountain and broke the opponent's snow disaster secret technique.
...The Di people no longer have the motivation to continue to raid south. As long as we resist Beidi's last wave of crazy attacks and block Beidi's desperate counterattack like a trapped animal, we will win this war."
This is much stronger than the protracted war of attrition previously deduced.
And this is exactly what the Holy Emperor fought for them.
After listening to Qin Yun's analysis, Qin Kai understood what the Holy Emperor had done to keep them secret.
"The Holy Emperor, well, if the commander hadn't analyzed it, we wouldn't have known about it until the end of the war."
Qin Yun turned around, looked at Qin Kai and said with a smile: "The Holy Emperor may not care about these false names, but we have to prevent the Holy Emperor's holy name from being displayed."
As soon as Qin Kai heard this, he understood what Qin Yun meant. He immediately nodded with a knowing smile and said, "I understand what the commander-in-chief means. Soon everyone in the Great Wall Fortress will know the greatness of the Holy Emperor."
Qin Yun nodded with satisfaction and focused his attention on the sand table again: "Don't just look at a place as big as the Qin Family Army. You need to broaden your horizons."
Qin Kai's eyes lit up, he glanced at the communication jade charm placed on the bookcase next to him, smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I understand that the other Eighth Army will get the news soon. Doing this
I'm the best at it."
After Qin Kai left, Qin Yun stared at the sand table and murmured to himself:
"The tribal leaders have more military literacy. They have naturally seen this war for a long time. They have no chance of winning at all. The war will only weaken their strength. They must advocate withdrawing their troops."
"However, the interests of the shamans who need the corpses in the battle city to sacrifice to the gods are completely opposite to those of the tribal leaders. It is better to invade the Central Plains, but if they cannot, the Di people who died in battle are also the best sacrifices to sacrifice to the gods, regardless of
However, as long as the war continues, it will be beneficial to him, so the shaman’s idea must be to fight the war to the end.”
"The game between the tribal leader and the shaman has never stopped since ancient times. It's just that the tribal leader wins less and loses more. This time, with such a good opportunity, he will definitely not give up."
"The tribal leader will probably be too passive to do his job, so the shaman will have no choice but to fight in person. He probably still uses the same old method of belief in gods to inspire fighting spirit. Belief always makes people crazy, so this war will definitely be the most intense. However,
It cannot last long. Once this group of knights with fanatical beliefs is exhausted, the tribe leaders will begin to counterattack. By then, the shamans whose power has been greatly reduced, no matter how dissatisfied they are, will not be able to prevent the Beidi army from retreating to the north of Yinshan Mountain."
"At that time, this war will truly end."
After deducing the upcoming battle situation, Qin Yun couldn't help but reveal a relaxed smile on his face.
"The next step is to make targeted arrangements."
Shaman…
"Faith is really a troublesome thing."
Qin Yun suddenly thought of something.
"I remember that the Lantern Man has been secretly promoting the belief in the Dragon God in Beidi to counteract the belief in the God of Heaven. Maybe it can be used."
Qin Yun naturally thought of announcing Qin Yi directly among the Di people, but it was too difficult and the results were too slow.
The best effect would be to promote the Dragon God, who already has a deep connection among the Di people.
"Nothing bothers you, Master. Let's leave this matter to Qin Kai."
Qin Yun thought of Qin Kai who had liked to inquire and spread news since he was a child. He couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile: "He is the best at doing these things."
