Heiwu, the camp of the South Courtyard.

The Heiwu Khan Emperor who hurried back from the camp in the north courtyard quickly walked into the big tent, and behind him, the generals of the southern courtyard of Heiwu rushed into the two sides of the column, Samburu sat down, and the generals on both sides were already standing in a neat line.

"Everybody knows."

Sambulu glanced at everyone: "This kind of weather in southern Xinjiang, the most suitable for war is from June to September, and in April, there are already Ningguo's troops marching into Hanhai City on the opposite side, although there is no specific number yet, but I guess that at this moment, around Hanhai City, the strength of Ning's army is no less than 500,000. ”

"Emperor Ning Li Chengtang has arrived in person, and his forbidden army has arrived."

Samburu looked at Liao Kill Wolf: "Is there any news?" ”

Liao Killing Wolf leaned over and said: "Back to Your Majesty, our scouts can't get too close, and the secret spy news in the city can't be sent, but the secret spy outside Hanhai City managed to send a letter, saying that the forbidden army should not be less than sixty or seventy thousand people, so it can be seen that Li Chengtang is in Hanhai City at this moment, and he also saw the general flag of Yuan Shu in the forbidden army, this person should not be underestimated." ”

"I know this man."

Sambrü said: "It's almost June, if nothing happens, the Ning army will launch an offensive in ten days at most, they can't afford to delay, if there is no progress in these three months, they will have to wait until next year." ”

Liao killed the wolf and said: "Your Majesty, the 450,000 troops of the Southern Courtyard have been prepared, and the Yeluyuan, Tianmen Pass, and the north of the city that the Ning army is most likely to attack, have already arranged heavy troops, except for these three places, it is almost impossible for the Ning army to attack." ”

Sambulu got up and strode to the map hanging on the wall and looked at it: "Yeluyuan, there are dozens of tribes large and small in the Southern Courtyard, if the Ning army can break through here, it will be able to burn the grassland reserves of each tribe, this season, the new grass has not grown tall, if the hay reserves are destroyed, the cattle and sheep of all tribes will starve to death in less than seven days." ”

Liao Kill Wolf snorted: "So the minister has informed the leaders of the various tribes in advance, and they have also gathered all the soldiers who can fight, and cooperate with the army of the Southern Courtyard, with a total strength of no less than 150,000 in the Yelu Plain, in addition, the tribes have begun to transport hay reserves to farther places." ”

"If the cattle and sheep of the tribes are killed or wounded too much, the food for hundreds of thousands of troops will be cut off."

Samburu looked at the map and frowned and said: "This is the top priority, so send another 10,000 people over and arrange it on the bank of the river west of Yelu Plain, the river has not completely frozen, and it is very likely that the Ning army will take the risk of crossing the river." ”

"Obey."

Liao killed the wolf and hung his head: "The minister will arrange it as soon as possible." ”

Samburu snorted, and then looked at another person: "Yuan Fuji, you came from the Ningguo grassland, with your understanding of the grassland, will they send troops to assist Emperor Ning in his northern expedition?" ”

"Yes."

A middle-aged man who looked a little bookish lowered his head in response, this person looked about thirty years old, a typical prairie man's appearance, but he was wearing a scholarly robe, and a thick coat was draped outside, he was not thin, he was quite strong, so this Confucian dress looked a little awkward, and his speech and demeanor were a little magnanimous.

Sambrü looked at him: "Are you so sure? ”

"Absolutely."

Yuan Fuji said: "Emperor Ning helped Da Ai Jin Yun Sangduo to eliminate all the threats on the grassland, Yun Sangduo will inevitably send cavalry to go out with Emperor Ning, with the current strength on the grassland, the number of troops should not be less than 100,000." ”

"100,000 cavalry."

Samburu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "If there is really a cavalry of this scale, with the battle formation of the border army of Ningguo, and specialize in one place, I am afraid that it will not be easy to block, once the wild deer plain is lost, this battle will be lost miserably." ”

He looked at Liao Killing Wolf: "How about arranging the beggar army in the area of Black Line Mountain?" ”

Liao killed the wolf and said: "The beggar army is formed to fight against the iron cavalry in the northern frontier of Ningguo, if it is transferred to the Black Line Mountain, it will be nearly a hundred miles to the west to Yeluyuan, and nearly a hundred miles to the east to Lucheng, it seems that it can be supported on both sides, but the beggar army is heavy armor, and the support speed is not fast, once it is separated from the support of the army to form a lone army, the Ning people will not let go of the opportunity, so ...... Your Majesty, the beggars are not to be moved. ”

Samburu nodded: "It's okay, the deployment of troops is overstretched, I thought, did I transfer tens of thousands of people from the camp in the North Courtyard first?" ”

Liao Killing Wolf shook his head again: "Your Majesty, the minister has never believed that Emperor Ning would dismiss Pei Tingshan, the general of Eastern Xinjiang, on the occasion of the Northern Expedition, in terms of the ability to lead the troops, Pei Tingshan is still above Tie Liuli, the general of Ning's northern Xinjiang, and he has deposed Pei Tingshan at this moment, doesn't Emperor Ning know that he is self-destructing the army?" The minister guessed that this was Emperor Ning's treacherous plan. ”

He looked at Samburu and said: "Your Majesty, please give your majesty an order to the camp of the North Courtyard, you must not take the initiative to attack the Ning army, if the Ning army is cheating, it will come out of the Bohai Sea, if Pei Tingshan's sword soldiers detour from the Bohai Kingdom, and my North Courtyard camp stormed the Xifeng Pass of Ning Guo, it will be copied by Pei Tingshan, when the army attacked Ningguo, Ning General Zhuang Yong led the army to defend the Feng Yantai, resulting in my southern expedition army was blocked by the Ning army, and more than 100,000 people died, that time we took the initiative to fight the Ning people, and it took a long time to recover, This time it was the Ningda attack, if there was an accident in the camp of the North Courtyard......"

Samburu pondered for a moment: "If the camp of the North Courtyard has been standing still, and the 300,000 troops will be pressed to death there, isn't this what the Ning people want to see?" ”

Liao Kill Wolf said earnestly: "As long as the North Courtyard battalion holds still, even if the Ning army has controlled Sura City and Gedi City, their army will not be able to continue to go north, the North Courtyard camp is like a barrier there, we have the power of terrain, even if the Ning army gathers hundreds of thousands of people in Xifengkou, it will not be able to attack, and it is impossible for them to dispatch more than 300,000 troops on the front line of Xifengkou, their only chance of victory is to lure the North Courtyard battalion to take the initiative to attack, please Your Majesty think twice, you must not transfer a soldier from the North Courtyard, the battlefield of the South Courtyard." , the army of my Southern Courtyard can resist it. ”

Samburu looked at Yuan Fuji, who was standing on the side: "What do you think?" ”

Yuan Fuji lowered his head and said: "What the general said is reasonable, and the minister also agrees with the general's opinion." ”

Liao Kill Wolf glanced at Yuan Fuji with gratitude.

But at this moment, the Black Martial Bolan King Grianuha glanced at Liao Killing Wolf, and said in a somewhat unkind tone: "The general has never wanted the army of the Northern Courtyard to come over, is it really completely out of the intention of resisting the invasion of the Ning people?" ”

Liao killed the wolf and was stunned: "What does the prince mean?" ”

There are a total of nine kings with different surnames in Heiwu, when the Heiwu royal family unified this land, after countless battles, among them, the leaders of the nine major tribes who initially fought with the Heiwu Khan Emperor were all crowned kings after the establishment of the Heiwu Kingdom, and the hereditary replacement, although the strength of these nine kings with different surnames is not as good as before, four of them do not even have many troops, retain their fiefs, and even the tribes have weakened to the point that there are not many people, but the weight of these nine people in the Heiwu court is still there.

The contradiction between Xin Fengyue and Samburu has reached the point of irreconcilability, and these nine kings with different surnames have also begun to stand in line, five of them are on Xin Fengyue's side, and these five are all weak, because they are eager to restore the glory of the family, and the remaining four people, including Gryanuha, still have their own tribal strength.

Gryanuha has always disliked Liao killing wolves, in his opinion, Liao killing wolves is an immature wolf, he even suspects that the death of Su Gai, the former general of the Southern Courtyard, is related to Liao killing wolves, at that time Su Gai's personal guards were people arranged by Liao killing wolves, and these people did not protect Su Gai in time.

"What do I mean?"

Gryanuha snorted: "When Your Majesty dispatches Du Gang as the general of the Northern Courtyard, you will do your best to stop it, everyone knows that Du Gang is Su Gai's person, and if Du Gang has troops in his hands, you are worried that someone will retaliate against you for the death of the general Su Gai." ”

Liao Killing Wolf's eyes glared fiercely: "Lord Wang, speak responsibly." ”

Gryanuha shouted: "Do you think I look like someone who does not dare to be responsible? ”

Sambrü scolded angrily: "Shut up!" ”

Gryanuha and Liao Kill Wolf leaned down at the same time: "Your Majesty is angry." ”

Sambrü glanced at Grianuha: "King Bolan, you and the general Su Gai are sworn brothers, I know that you have always felt that there is a problem with the general's death, and I will also investigate this matter carefully, but not now, nor is it a reason for you to casually give people a charge, at this moment, whoever disturbs the army's heart, I will definitely not spare it." ”

Grianuha bowed his head and said, "The minister is guilty." ”

Samburu looked at Liao Killing Wolf again: "Before I came back from the camp in the North Courtyard, I had already explained that I was not allowed to act rashly, your worries are also my worries, with Pei Tingshan here, Li Chengtang has a sharp knife in his hand, he will not easily abolish such a sharp weapon before the war, unless...... He believed that Pei Tingshan was a hidden danger to his northern expedition. ”

Samburu asked Yuan Fuji: "As far as you know, how is Pei Tingshan?" ”

"Rigid and self-serving, extremely domineering."

Yuan Fuji lowered his head and said: "Emperor Ning deliberately abolished Pei Tingshan several times, all because of Pei Tingshan's original merits, so he endured it, His Majesty's analysis is not unreasonable, maybe Emperor Ning is really just worried that Pei Tingshan will stab him in the back when he is driving in person." ”

Sambrü paced back and forth in the big tent, obviously thinking, and after a while he said, "For the time being, let's do it according to the idea of killing wolves in Liao, and send someone to deliver an edict to the camp of the North Courtyard, and don't act rashly." ”

Liao killed the wolf and said: "The minister still has a word. ”

"Say!"

"Your Majesty, please order the camera to act and get rid of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

Samburu's face sank: "You say it again? ”

"Your Majesty, please get rid of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess as soon as possible."

"That's my own sister!"

Samburu glared at Liao Kill Wolf and waved his hand: "Don't mention this matter again." ”

Liao Kill Wolf still wanted to say, Yuan Fuji shook his head at him slightly, and Liao Kill Wolf immediately endured it.

Sam Bulu said: "You all know what Xin Fengyue has done in the past few years, the children of the royal family, almost killed by him...... If at this time, I still want to get rid of my own sister, how will the world see me? Even Xin Fengyue can't sleep with laughter! ”

Liao killed the wolf and leaned over: "The minister didn't dare to mention it again." ”

But he was not convinced.

Sam Bulu said: "In this way, Yuan Fuji, you recommend a person to the North Courtyard camp to assist Du Gang." ”

Yuan Fuji bowed his head: "The ...... minister"

"I want to go!"

Gryanuha, the king of Bolan, stepped forward and said, "The 20,000 elite horsemen under the command of the minister are willing to swear allegiance to Your Majesty. ”

Liao Kill Wolf also stepped forward: "King Bolan can't go!" ”

Samburu looked at Liao Killing Wolf: "Why?" ”

Liao Kill Wolf lowered his head and said, "The minister thinks that King Bolan is not suitable. ”

"Why isn't it appropriate?"

He ...... has an impulsive personality and is confident of his identity, and when he arrives in the North Courtyard, it will affect his judgment. ”

"Are you afraid that I and Du Gang will join forces to investigate you!"

Gryanuha stepped in front of the Liao Kill Wolf and looked directly into the eyes of the Liao Kill Wolf: "What are you afraid of?" ”

"No more fighting."

Samburu waved his hand: "King Bolan, you will lead the cavalry of your headquarters to the camp in the North Courtyard tomorrow, I don't want to see that you haven't fought with the Ning people yet, but you will fight first!" I've always said that we should be like brothers and sisters in this big tent, what about you?! ”

Grianuha said, "The minister obeys. ”

He glanced at Liao Kill Wolf provocatively, but Liao Kill Wolf sighed.
