The advance team of a legion has already set off from Wuying County and sailed north, and is expected to arrive at Chunluwan Water Village before the arrival of the New Year.

The advance team came in a hurry this time, which was related to the arrival of the Meng army's vanguard near Diyan Lake, and the first opportunity of our army had been lost, and if they did not act again, they might not be able to get anything.

The main task of the advance team is to provide logistical support for the main force, first to ensure the safety of two ports, the first is the Chunlu Bay Water Village, and the other is on the other side of the Tongyuan River.

People have forbidden magicians in charge, no, I have to replenish the high-end combat power of Shuizhai.

Ding Kui was a little worried.

Control of Chunluwan Water Village has always been the core of his negotiations with his own country, and both sides are unwilling to make concessions, his own country is worried that Ding Kui will cut off their retreat, and Ding Kui is worried that he will not return to the water village in the future.

In the end, they reached an agreement that their army could send 25,000 troops to the water village, and if more troops wanted to go ashore to rest, they could rotate with the troops in the water village, or disperse to cities upstream and downstream, such as Juyang City and Dongxiong City, each city could land 10,000 people.

However, the sixth-level combat power under Ding Kui has increased and decreased, and now only Ao Yu, Ding Kun, and Ruan Xingzhu remain, and the legendary Xie Peng, Ao Yan, Shi General, and Cha Yang, who stayed for a short time, left for various reasons.

He had no choice, so he had to let Ao Yu go to Chunlu Bay Water Village to sit in town. The humanoid dragon took the opportunity to knock a stroke, and then ran to sleep in the water village.

In the blink of an eye, on the last day of 4880, the fleet of our own country sailed to the coast of Nanqiu County, two divisions were stationed in Shuizhai, and three other divisions landed in Dingjiang City, Dongxiong City and Juyang City respectively.

As soon as Kong Ren walked into the gate of the Earl's Palace, Ding Kui ran out and said, "My country's naval army is here, and I immediately ordered the 111th Division to attack." ”

"Hey, I'm here at your house for the New Year, and all the staff are on vacation today!"

Indeed, even Jiang Xi ran to Zhennan City through the portal, except for those who live in Nanqiu County, there is only Kong Ren left in the entire staff headquarters.

"Well, you write me a proposal, and I'll order it directly. ”

"Can't you let people have a peaceful New Year?" Kong Ren complained, but the proposal was still written to Ding Kui.

"We can't let the enemy live well, well, you want to write a crusade against it, and it's good to be famous. Ding Kui took Kong Ren to the living room again.

Kong Ren could have rushed to Zhenjing City for the New Year, but Kong Ci was worried that Shaodian would deliberately make things difficult, so he still let him stay in Nanqiu County.

"Write in my name, okay?" he grimaced.

"In my name! Condemning Shao Dianxi for sending someone to assassinate my daughter is justified enough. Ding Kui didn't embarrass Kong Ren.

Now the position of the Kong family in Nannuma Prefecture is a bit embarrassing, whether it is in Nanjing City or Nanqiu County, there are children of their family, and it is easy to cause a situation where their own people beat their own people.

"What?" Kong Ren was very surprised, "Find out that Shao Dianxi did it?"

"No, I guess. Ding Kui didn't blink his eyes when he spoke.

Kong Ren immediately came to his senses and scolded with a smile: "What do you guess! This is clearly a false accusation, anyway, there is no proof that the assassin is dead, who do you say is who? Do you want to tie the Jiang family to your chariot?"

"This is really not, the Jiang family needs the approval of the Senate to start a war, I have no evidence, but Shao Dianxi can't prove that he didn't do it, even if he can prove it, well, I'll talk about it then." ”

The most feared thing about Ding Kui by the major forces is that this young man can play a scoundrel, and some uncivilized and unelegant means are used by him, and others can understand him, and the advantage of being young is reflected in this.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, not only the 111th Division was dispatched, but also special operations regiments and water troops.

Special operations regiments often sneak behind enemy lines before large units, and they can understand that they move first, but this is the first time that a naval force has taken the initiative to attack.

However, the rear of the small imperial court navy was their own navy, and they used the excuse to prevent the Nanmara Prefecture navy from miscalculation.

Escorting the advance party of our army was a large fleet of naval vessels, twice the number of large and medium-sized warships, and they were responsible for ensuring the safety of our army's water transportation routes.

Hua Song received information that a large number of his own warships were operating in the waters of Nanqiu County when he was keeping vigil at home, and immediately issued an emergency assembly order, and the navy assembled overnight and boarded the ships and set sail.

"What's going on?" Lou Xiao was about to go back to the backyard to rest, when he suddenly saw his subordinates hurrying over.

"Master Qiqi, there is an enemy situation in the southern part of Anyang County and the waters of Yanling County. ”

"What! What the hell is Ding Kui doing? Is there any news from Lord Zhou Mu and Commander Gongsun?" Lou Xiao was irritable for a while, the hostility in those two places could only be made by Ding Kui, could he still live this year?

"The news came from the Intelligence Department. "The servant does not dare to judge himself.

"Well, they definitely know. Prepare the car, I'm going to the county king's mansion. ”

Several carriages rushed to the gate of the county king's mansion with Lou Xiao, and all the important officials of the state government came.

"The commander of Huada personally led the army to sail, and we don't need to worry about the affairs on the river, what should we do with the enemies in Anyang County?"

The city of Nanjing is located in the middle of Anyang County, so there must be no problem with Anyang County.

"The subordinates will immediately lead the troops to go, if you don't clear the enemy in Anyang County, come and see you!" Gongsun Mi wanted to propose that the cavalry go to sweep up, but if he loses to anyone, he can't lose to the navy, Hua Song is on the march, how can he sit in the rear?

When Shaodiantai heard this, he said secretly: Even if you know each other, it is not appropriate to send cavalry if the enemy situation is not clear, and the enemy must be fully prepared to send troops at this time.

"Could this be the enemy's suspicious tactics? Commander Gongsun went to the front line, who would dispatch the rear?" Wei Shiwen deliberately glanced at Shao Diantai as he spoke.

"There is no large-scale movement of the enemy army, it is said that their military academy was closed half a month ago, there will be no big move today, I will be able to come back soon, and everyone can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. "Gongsun Mi doesn't want to give Shao Diantai a chance to take power.

Wei Si came out and said: "Earlier, there were ships from our own country docked at the Chunlu Bay Water Village, and Ding Kui only came back from my country more than a month ago, could it be that Ding Kui colluded with foreign enemies to invade?

"Don't be careful!" Shao Diantai found an opportunity to appear, "My country has not contacted the clan government, and I invited the Ding thief couple privately, there must be a conspiracy!"

The warships of their own country came from afar, and they could not be justified without major interests, and the general thought that this was ironclad evidence of Ding Kui's treason, and he should call on the whole country to encircle and suppress him. ”

Phew! I will only say that I will not do it, and the Commander's Office sent you to let you exterminate Ding Kui, and the result is that the forward troops cannot even take an ordinary division.

Gongsun Mi scolded in his stomach, but he was calm on the surface.

"Encirclement and suppression across the country, I'm afraid that by the time the reinforcements arrive, the people will already leave!" Shao Dianxi was anxious first, "Lou Xiao, is there a way to stabilize Ding Kui first?"

"My subordinates are willing to send an envoy to Shibu County again or go directly to Nanqiu County. "Lou Xiao is not afraid to talk to Ding Kui, this is much safer than going to war.

"What did the envoy say? Last time, what can I do to give up Shibu County this time?" Wei Shiwen regretted it as soon as he said this, and was a little suspicious of blaming Shao Dianxi.

Sure enough, Shao Dianxi's face changed, and he said, "This king really doesn't want to give up Shibu County, Captain Wei, or do you want to come back for this king?"

Wei Shiwen immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Humble and reckless, I have no intention of offending adults, please punish them severely!"

"Captain Wei means that we have no bargaining chips, and it is difficult to make the thief stop, but if we don't think about it, we will be disrespectful, and I hope that the adults will be taken lightly. "There are officials who intercede for Wei Shiwen.

"Hmph! I read that your heart is the court, and I only speak out in a hurry, and the crime of contempt will be recorded for the time being, and I will make up for it in the future. "Shao Dianxi didn't punish his own guard captain at such a time.

"Thank you, for your kindness!" Wei Shiwen broke out in a cold sweat.

"My lord just wants to stabilize Ding Kui first, and then make a decision when the situation is clear, the intention is to delay without bargaining chips, don't speculate if you don't understand. Lou Xiao looked calm and atmospheric at this time.

"That's right, that's exactly what this king meant! Gongsun commanded and went to meet the enemy, Minister Lou went to contact Ding Kui, and the rest of the people were on call at any time. ”

"Yes!"

......

"My lord, this crossbow cart can only run official roads, and it is easy to be damaged when driving in the mountains, forests and wilderness, so it shouldn't be brought out this time. "Long Shuang was instigated by his subordinates to come to Han Rujian to complain.

The 111th Division acted separately as a unit of adults, and a large group was responsible for taking care of the ballista carts.

The ballista was developed by Mofu inspired by the iron pulley, and was a large bed crossbow mounted on a carriage, pulled by a horse, and escorted by a small group of soldiers. A large group was equipped with ten such ballistas, and one squadron was divided equally.

"Then just take the official road! Last night, you used a ballista to attack the soldier station, why didn't you say that you shouldn't bring it out at that time?"

"It's just used once, our task is to raid, and we won't have a chance to use it later! "Long Shuang does not give up.

The task of a large group is to cover other troops, and after the crossbow troops are broken off with the crossbow carts, our army can safely withdraw from Anyang County at any time. Will you send the ballista back and use your body to stop the enemy?"

"Oops, it hurts, my lord, the fine armor has pierced you. ”

"Then you go back to recuperate first, and I'll take a large team myself. ”

"Don't don't, just kidding, my subordinates are going to check the ballista. Long Shuang ran away as if fleeing for his life.

The 111th Division also had a more powerful new weapon, the Dense Array Ballista, but Han Rujian thought it was too bulky and didn't bring it out.

In contrast, the ballista is very light, and the marching speed in flat terrain is faster than that of the infantry, which is suitable for attacking and blocking battles, which is as cold as a blade before being willing to invest a large group with a ballista out.

The checkpoints and military stations set up by Anyang County on the official road could not stop the wolf-like 111th Division, and the five southern cities had to close the city gates, hold on and wait for reinforcements, and let the enemy move outside the city.

The action on the water was smoother, Chen Yuan led twenty medium-sized warships, swaggering upstream, followed by nearly a thousand warships of various types, although they were all under the banner of a small imperial court, but a discerning person could see at a glance that those were the ships of his own country.
