After everyone left, Ding Kui left Fei Ze and asked, "If the enemy army comes first, what will the battle be like today?"

The most dangerous time he led his troops was at Zhenbeiguan, and he rarely fell into trouble after that, and asked Fei to learn from experience.

"Stick to the dirt slope and fight to the death!" Fei Ze replied very seriously, "The chance of the enemy army pouring out of the nest is too small, Xixuancheng has enough troops to rescue, and his subordinates will choose to fight to the death, and with the combat strength of the 75th Division, there is a chance to wait for reinforcements." ”

"The higher the position, the more cautious you need to be in making decisions, I now deeply understand that it is not easy, the slightest mistake may affect the lives of tens of thousands of people, how many people will die if something goes wrong in the court? Ding Kui must not let mediocre people control the government!" Ding Kui thought a lot.

Fei didn't dare to take a stubble, this kind of big picture, no matter what Ding Kui thought, he could assist but not take the initiative to influence.

The military camps to the west and north of the city were lined up, with 30,000 men from the 20th Army and 50,000 from the Confucian Army completely overpowering the defenders, as well as more than 20,000 people from Huashan County and Yanling County, building siege equipment day and night.

On this day, the Confucian army launched ten wells and began to attack the city as soon as it was dawn, mainly using bows and arrows to suppress the northern city wall, and the infantry cleared the traps on the battlefield under the cover of shields.

There were more than twice as many flags on the platform as usual, and Kong Cheng and a young man hid under the banner to watch the battle.

"A few years ago, Master Jiang was also the commander of the theater, and under his command, the Kong family army was mainly defensive, and only participated in the offensive in the later stage of the war, and we lacked experience in attacking the city. ”

The young man smiled when he heard this, and said: "At that time, I was also the chief of staff of the war zone, I know the situation of your regiment, no one is born to fight, Wenguo County is a peace-loving person, it is understandable that he is not good at attacking." ”

Jiang Zhi came to observe the combat effectiveness of the Kong Army and the Twentieth Army Corps, and wanted to know how much pressure they could put on the Northern Third Army Corps.

"Since I can come here, I will trouble you to give them more advice, and it is the wish of the Kong family to expel the criminals as soon as possible. Kong Cheng was not afraid to expose his shortcomings in front of Jiang Zhi.

The siege of the Confucian army was decent, but the overall coordination was lacking, the archers and the wells fought separately, and the protection of other troops was insufficient.

Jiang Zhi pointed out the shortcomings of the Kong Jiajun one by one, "Many preparations are standardized operations to prevent the enemy, and we may not encounter the enemy in a lifetime of fighting, but we must not be negligent, and the preparations that should be made must not be less." ”

"Taught. Kong Cheng asked his staff to write it down.

The Kong family army has its own faction in Nanmara Prefecture, from the recruitment of soldiers, the training of officers, and the allocation of staff officers and magicians are all solved by Wenguo County itself, without the help of the commander's office, nor can it be supported by the state pastor, and there has never been a commander-level general in history, and the combat of the legion is indeed not standardized.

"The Eighth Army lacks corps-level staff officers, and the cross-division operations are basically commanded by the division commanders below, because they all have such capabilities, I can't send people to the Kong family, you'd better apply to Jiang Shuai and ask the base camp to send staff officers to assist the Kong family's army. Jiang Zhi felt that this was a symptom rather than a cure, and that Kong Cheng needed a high-level staff officer.

"I really envy your legion, each division commander has the ability to command the legion, and there is the eighth legion in the invulner. "Kong Chengxin took it orally.

In fact, Jiang Zhi couldn't explain to Kong Cheng that ordinary staff officers could not understand the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Army Corps, and often could not make the most correct arrangements, although they might not be able to defeat the battle, they would definitely not be able to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Army Corps, and it was better to let the commanders of the ten divisions command.

Ding Kui is an outlier, he has undisputed prestige, strong personal combat effectiveness, and is good at listening to other people's opinions, so Jiang Xi and Jiang Zhi are relieved to let him command the troops of the Eighth Legion.

Jiang Zhi stayed in Kongjiajun for half a day, and then transferred to the Western Daying. He was not disappointed by the combat effectiveness of the Twentieth Army, more than half of which were veterans who had fought for several years, and the 201st, 202nd, and 205th divisions took turns to fight, putting a lot of pressure on the defenders of Shimu.

"Report to the chief of staff, yesterday the enemy mobilized about 50,000 people to launch an attack on Baiqiu Town, the 75th Division was attacked in the field, Ding Kui ordered the 71st and 80th Divisions to assist, the enemy has been repulsed, and the 75th Division has returned to the camp safely. "The scout brings the latest battle report.

"The enemy army has such a big move?" Jiang Zhi was surprised, "Okay, I'll go back right away." "The purpose of his coming out has been accomplished, and he wants to rush back to the headquarters.

Ding Kui led the 77th and 78th divisions into battle today, and ran to provoke outside the barracks in Fengrun, and he, Ding Kun, and Shi General once rushed to the sky above the barracks, and the entire Northern Fifth Army Corps forced them to retreat with their lives.

Xia Fan and Lang Chun rushed to hear the news, guarded the sky above Yuanmen, and resolutely did not let the Shaodian army approach, Ding Kui saw that there was no cheap to pick up, so he collected his troops and returned to the camp.

"Today, there is no movement in the county town, Chunlu City and Jiaxin City, so Xia Fan and Lang Chun came to assist Feng Run in defense, and Yudi's use of troops is completely different from last night. Ding Kui complained when he returned to the camp.

He stayed in the barracks today, and also greeted Xixuancheng and Huatongcheng, once his army had a large-scale transfer, Fei would notify the two cities to help, but all the arrangements were useless.

Luo Tao said: "Yesterday, the enemy army did not eat the 75th Division with 20,000 people, and today I want to prepare at least 40,000 or 50,000 people for us, unless they give up a city, they will not be able to muster so many troops." ”

"Maybe the enemy didn't expect that we need enough magicians to deal with us, and the enemy's reaction speed is too slow to gather magicians. Shu Li has a different view.

"That's right, Yu Di needs to know the movements of our army in advance, accurately predict our strength and the time and place of the attack, and with enough information, he can formulate tactics that surprise us. Fei learned more about Yudi's style.

"As far as I know, the Blue Eyed Kamen is doing its best to defend Chunlu City and the ferry, and he didn't come to spy on the camp in Baiqiu Town today, which can prove from the side that the enemy army used the surveillance of the magician to obtain information about our army. Qian is enshrined, and you are responsible for patrolling the area around the camp before the action in the future to make sure that no master masters are spying on us. Ding Kui assigned a task to Shi Jiang.

"It's easy, leave it to me. General Shi gladly accepted the order.

"Do you want the old slave to spy on the enemy camp?" Ding Kun immediately wanted to-for-tat. His apprentice is responsible for intelligence, but now that the Security Bureau has entered the incubation period, Ding Zhong is still recuperating from his injuries in Hengfu City, and as a teacher, he should come out to shoulder the burden of the apprentice.

"Not for the time being, the enemy can't do without those cities. Ding Kui didn't have a specific idea of how to strike the enemy, "Mr. Fei, what should I do next?"

The troops of Baiqiu Town could not gnaw at any of the enemy's fixed strongholds, and with yesterday's lesson, it was not appropriate to casually enter the area controlled by his own army, so he had to rethink his strategy against the enemy.

"The enemy seems to know the strength here, and if there is no other place to contain it, he can set us up near the county town, and it is best to make the strength of Baiqiu Town changeable, so that the enemy army can adopt higher-cost tactics. "Fei has a new proposal.

"The strength of the army is changeable, Xixuancheng can send troops here to train. Luo Tao said according to his own understanding.

"Isn't the prince the commander of the militia? You can use the militia to pretend to be a regular army. Shu Li is also using his brain.

Zhang Dingyuan reminded: "There is no danger in Baiting City. ”

"You can transfer Shaodianfei's militia to the royal outpost, and the 74th Division can free up cavalry units to assist us; pretending to be a regular army doesn't need militia, just the people in the big camp!" Ding Kui didn't dare to use private troops, Juyang City was not very safe.

"The capital city is urgent. Qianyou walked into the tent quickly and handed Ding Kui a note.

"Ouch, far water can't quench your thirst! Tell the boss that my junior brother from the capital can leave ninety people in the base camp and pick ten of the most clever ones to be my personal soldiers; Senior Sister Lu arranged to go to Xixuancheng, I will go to see her, don't let her come to Baiqiu Town. ”

On the note was the news that Lu Ying and a hundred disciples of the Invisible Sword Sect were coming, and He Cripple informed Hengfu City through a magic transmission, and the Hengfu City Magic Guild sent it directly to Qianyou's jade talisman.

Lu Ji can send these people, they must have all studied military law, the invisible sword sect is a school for training knights, military knowledge is a course that must be learned, these hundred core disciples can at least be used as squad leaders, and individual outstanding ones can also be captains, and there is a shortage of middle-level officers in the base camp.

Ding Kui was worried that his second uncle would intercept all the people, and the old soldiers were going to be the captain of the brigade and always needed to replenish fresh blood.

"The thousands of cavalry of the 74th Division are not enough. Fei then pulled back to the original topic.

"How about the twin military camps?" Ding Kui's fingers tapped on the map.

Fei Ze looked along his fingers, and the place where Ding Kui knocked was a town in Chunlu City.

Chunni Town, located in the northwest of Chunlu City, is close to the boundary of Xixuancheng, less than three miles away from the upper reaches of the Chunlu River, and about ten miles away from Baiqiu Town.

"Hehe, the lord really drew inferences from one case and divided the troops into two military camps, wonderful!" Fei Ze clapped his hands and smiled.

The generals and staff officers came over to look at it, wondering how to do it.

Zhang Dingyuan pondered for a while, and based on his recent experience working with Fei Ze, he also figured out the joints, and said: "Chunni Town is just right, and the enemy staff officers are busy. ”

Luo Tao and Shu Li seemed to understand when they heard Zhang Dingyuan's addition, and said together: "Even if Yudi sees through it, he has to guard against this new military camp." ”

"Who goes first?" Ding Kui pressed his hands straight on the table, his eyes revolving back and forth on Luo Tao, Shu Li and Zhang Dingyuan.

"Wait two more days, let the people improve Baiqiu Town first. Fei then suggested.

"Oh, if that's the case, then I'll go first, and give me some people. Luo Tao raised his hand first.

"Yes. Ding Kui slapped the table, "Let's fight the scout battle for two days first." ”

Beginning that night, thousands of people scattered around the town of Baiqiu, carefully searching every nook and cranny of the nearby villages, striking hard at the enemy hiding near the barracks.

The next day, several thousand more people were dispatched to infiltrate Chunlu City, the county town and Jiaxin City as much as possible, specifically looking for their own scouts, and vigorously launched a scout battle.

In this way, our army is quite uncomfortable, and it is very expensive to learn about the military camp in Baiqiu Town.
