Originally, the beauty was preparing to face an unprecedented disaster, an invasion from a completely different culture from a foreign land.
After a fight, the offensive and defensive situation suddenly changed.
If Huttings had not only more than 30,000 people, but 300,000 people, then the offensive and defensive situation would naturally not change. Now it was their turn to withstand the Jade Man's offensive.
But the counterattack that Huttings expected to be realized as soon as possible did not come two months later.
For this reason, instead of breathing a sigh of relief, Hettings became even more worried, because he knew very well what it meant that the beauty was not in a hurry to counterattack.
They are all generals who lead troops. Even though he does not know much about the culture of the Central Plains, he has the same way of thinking in many places when it comes to military affairs.
If his old friend Ji Yuan is not only a master in talismans, but also a master in spiritual practice, the art of war, and even a master in cultural communication, then Hettings will inevitably become the biggest master in the history of Dayu. The threat is even greater than the threat posed by Lou Fan.
Unfortunately, Jiyuan is not such a great person.
"They have many different tactics on land, but this does not prove that they are invincible on land."
Huttings stood on his defensive line, actually feeling a little confident in addition to worry.
"Our weapons are their nightmare."
Huttings is very satisfied with this line of defense, and he is not worried that the beauty will attack from other places.
As long as his army is here, he can achieve perfect defense no matter which direction he lands on the island.
Moreover, he has already thought of a winning strategy, but he has not yet done so.
If you tell anyone, you are not worried that there will be beautiful spies, but telling your subordinates everything in advance will change their emotions.
A qualified general must also be a master of using people's hearts.
Let his soldiers maintain a high degree of vigilance and pay attention to the enemy, so as to ensure that defeat due to underestimation of the enemy will never happen again on the battlefield.
As for the strategy to defeat the enemy, he will naturally arrange it after the beauty really attacks the island.
"Mr. Ji."
Hettings said: "Now there is a very important thing for you to handle. I hope you will not refuse."
Ji Fuming asked: "Do you want me to take people to Whale Bay?"
Whale Bay is on the other side of Mojiu Island, and it is the second most suitable place for landing operations on Mojiu Island.
Moreover, it is behind the defense line of Lanze soldiers. If Jade Man sends people to investigate the situation in advance, he will definitely discover the role of Whale Bay.
"Jade is good at using tactics. You have told me these words many times, but... I am also an excellent general."
Hettings said: "I will give you 5,000 soldiers to set up an ambush at Whale Bay. Wait until the enemy passes through the mountains to ambush them. Then leave after fighting. Don't be reluctant to fight."
Ji Fuming immediately understood that Hettings was learning and applying it flexibly.
The beautiful woman lured the enemy deeply on the battlefield, and Hetings learned it clearly.
The price of three thousand elite navy soldiers cannot be exchanged for nothing.
"Beyond that mountain there is a big river."
Hettings said: "I will arrange for Terry to lead five thousand people to set up an ambush on the north bank of the river. After your people pass, the Jade Army will rush to pursue them. When they cross the river, they will
Half the time Terry would attack them. "
"After he has finished fighting for a while, he will quickly evacuate and join you. Then the two of you will lead our soldiers to quickly retreat to the Coconut Grove defense line. There I have sent two thousand soldiers to set up a weapons defense line. There, we will give Yu The People's Army dealt the third blow."
After saying this, Hettings pointed to his feet: "Here is the place for the decisive battle."
These things can be said, but he still hasn't said the real winning tactics.
After hearing Hettings' plan, Ji Fuming finally gained some confidence.
"Leave it to me and I will definitely come back with victory."
Ji Fuming stepped forward and hugged the little general, then left with his five thousand soldiers.
Hettings stood high and looked at the warships in the bay, especially the flagship Black Whale that had been with him for a long time.
He commanded his fleet from this flagship for five consecutive years, during which time they conquered countless enemies.
The Lanze Empire has become more powerful in the past five years, and has even become the dominant one.
However, as a result of his meritorious service, Hettings did not enjoy the treatment that the emperor should give him.
Five years ago, Emperor Lanze said that he would be made a duke after returning from the victorious battle. Five years have passed now, and he has achieved countless victories, but the emperor only gave him a count.
If he can really conquer Dayu this time, he has already thought about it. He will bring his new fleet and an invincible army of practitioners to conquer Lanze within three years at the latest, and let the unfaithful emperor kneel before him. Begging for mercy.
"Tell the patrolling fleet."
Hettings ordered again: "If
If an enemy reconnaissance vessel is discovered, do not block it and treat it as if it was not discovered. "
After saying this, Hettings looked at the flagship again... that was his best comrade-in-arms.
Another twenty days later.
There were many more ships gathered in Linhai County than before, and many fishermen also came over and were willing to assist the army in attacking Mojiu Island.
Beauties have always had such a personality, whether they are soldiers or civilians. If you offend me, even if I tighten my belt and live a life of selling iron, I will definitely fight back.
Even in the darkest period of history, Dayu still maintained complete victory in the military campaign against the Western Regions.
So what is cancer?
Anyone who can betray Liu Jigong under such circumstances is not worthy of being a beautiful woman, no, he is not worthy of being a human being.
Officials sent from the imperial court finally arrived. After understanding the situation, they expressed that the possibility of a counterattack was too great and asked His Highness to wait for a while until he urgently consulted the Supreme Holy Monarch before making a decision.
Lin Ye's answer was, you ask for your instructions, and I'll fight mine.
If Lin Ye was still just the eldest sister of the cowardly army, then the emperor would definitely have a big quarrel with Lin Ye, and even pressure Lin Ye as an imperial envoy, but that was not possible now.
He knew very well that he couldn't suppress it even if he wanted to. He didn't want Lin Ye to counterattack immediately, not because he was afraid of war, but because... the court had no money.
Dayu has not been idle in the past few years. After fighting with outsiders, he also fought at home, especially Lin Ye. After fighting Dongbo and Guzhu, he finished fighting Guzhu and Loufan, and after finishing Loufan, he started to return home to fight the rebels. First came Liu Tingsheng and Guo Geming, followed closely by Shi Xianfeng.
Lin Ye has been leading the army in battles for the past few years.
Even if the imperial court exists again
Money can't be sustained by such a fight, and the imperial court has never been well-off. Fortunately, there were too many people to deal with in the last battle, and the imperial court gained a lot of blood by confiscating homes.
"Then...I will go and ask for instructions, and your Highness will go and fight His Highness's battle."
The imperial envoy couldn't say anything, he could only agree first.
It's useless not to agree. Linhai County is already well prepared and has an arrow on the string. If we don't fight, it seems that the court won't spend less money. It's better to fight.
This imperial envoy is also an assistant minister in the service office, and also holds the official position of Minister of Household Affairs. He is in his forties, and his surname is Cui and Hanhai.
The purpose of urging Hanhai to come this time was to see how the Crown Prince's battle was going and what was still missing.
This is a battle to protect the family and the country. Whatever is lacking, the court must give it. Even if the officials in the court now only have one meal a day, this battle must be fought.
However, when I came here, I saw that it was no longer about defending the country, but about fighting back.
As the Minister of Household Affairs and the person in charge of money, how could Ji Hanhai not care about money?
"Your Highness...before the fight, can you give me a day to do my best for the court?"
Lin Ye nodded: "You are an imperial envoy. What you want to do here represents the Holy Lord, so naturally it is okay."
Jie Hanhai felt emboldened upon hearing this, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
He didn't go far, so he went to Rongshan County, a few miles away from the shore.
In the simple official post in Rongshan County, he met the two monarchs and ministers who were now dependent on each other.
King Xulik of Tujiu Island, and Mumari who came to Dayu and was imprisoned for a year and a half.
Counting those who walked on Dayu Road
In that half year, it had been two years since we arrived in Dayu. If we were lucky and followed Dayu's army back, it would have been two and a half years since we left.
After urging Hanhai to see Xu Li Ke, his face became a little ugly.
Xu Li Ke quickly asked: "What's going on, Mr. Minister? You look unhappy?"
Urging Hanhai said: "I had a big quarrel with His Royal Highness just now, how can I be happy?"
Xulik was startled: "Why are you quarreling with His Highness?"
Urging Hanhai said: "Your Highness originally planned to attack Mosjiu Island. You, the King, also know this. Since the King personally came to Dayu to ask for help from the Holy Lord, the Holy King is kind and sincere in your sincerity to submit to Dayu. So I am willing to help you regain your homeland."
"But after meeting His Highness the Crown Prince today, His Highness seems to not want to attack Mosjiu Island."
"Why!"
Xurike suddenly became anxious.
Mu Mali was also anxious: "I met His Highness the Crown Prince yesterday. His Highness also said that he would attack Taijiu Island as soon as possible and annihilate those ruthless bandits. Why did he suddenly change his mind today?"
"Sigh... I don't blame His Highness either."
Urging Hanhai said: "To tell you the truth, Dayu has no money right now. His Highness has recruited many martial arts masters and a large number of civilian warriors, all of which require military expenditures. And those ships were all hired with money. Now they have been I can’t get the money out.”
"Dayu has been fighting for several consecutive years. He defeated Lou Fan and killed millions of enemies. Dayu also mobilized an army of more than 500,000 people. Military expenditures are extremely huge."
"Then came the counter-insurgency. The counter-insurgency war lasted for a year. This year, money was spent like water. Apart from the war, the rest of the money in the treasury was used for disaster relief.
People. "
Speaking of this, Ji Hanhai actually cried.
"The Holy Lord asked me to come here because I want to take you all to fight back Mosjiu Island, but now we have no money, and we can't even pay military expenses. How can we fight?"
The more he spoke, the more he regretted it: "I even had a quarrel with His Highness. His Highness is more difficult than me. If the words that have been said are not counted, where will His Highness's prestige remain?"
As soon as Mu Mari heard this, he started to poke Xurike with his elbow: "Money, we have money."
Xulike didn't react at first, but when he heard Mu Mari's reminder, he immediately became excited.
"I have money on Mosquito Island!"
Xu Li Ke said excitedly: "As long as His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to lead troops to recover Moss Dove for me, I am willing to use all my money to pay for His Highness the Crown Prince's military expenses."
Cui Hanhai said: "Your Majesty, don't make trouble. It's a battle involving tens of thousands of troops. There are so many ships hired. It's not a small sum. Mosjiu Island is an island after all."
Xu Li Ke was anxious: "Why do you look down on people, Sir? There are silver mines on our Mosquito Island!"
He took Cui Hanhai's hand and said: "As long as the enemy is defeated, the silver in the treasury of Mosjiu Island belongs to big jade, and the silver mines also belong to big jade!"
Mumari immediately added: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, help us recover the moss dove. We are the vassal state of Dayu. As a vassal state, of course we must make offerings to the master state, every year!"
Urging Hanhai to hesitate: "You can say that, but I'm just a minister and I can't make the decision... I still have to ask the Supreme Saint for instructions."
Xu Like became even more anxious when he heard this: "How long will it take to go to Geling again? No, no, no, I can't wait any longer. I'm going to see His Highness now!"
urge
Hanhai: "This... is not good."
Xulik got up and ran out: "If there's anything wrong, I'll go now."
He ran out while talking.
Not long after, Lin Ye was watching the soldiers arranging their armaments on the shore. Suddenly, he heard a burst of shouting. Looking back, he saw Xu Like running towards him.
While running, he shouted: "I'll pay! I'll pay! I'll pay!"
