The accompanying soldiers on the side looked at Qin Feng and others fighting in a ball, and couldn't help shaking their heads with emotion.

"Master Qin is the Tianluhou who is the leader of the hundred princes, Ning Hu is the Qianhuhou, and Xu Mo is the general of Beixi County, plus a prince."

"If any of these four people stamps their feet, the whole beam will tremble."

"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that these four people were actually laughing, yelling, and rolling on the ground?"

The surrounding soldiers also laughed.

"Hahaha, Qin Hou has always been unconventional and unconventional, so naturally it is impossible to guess with common sense."

"As the saying goes, those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. If you stay with the Marquis of Qin for a long time, you will naturally learn bad things."

At this moment, Li Zhang straightened up, pushed Xu Mo away from his body, turned around and fled far away, pointing at Qin Feng and yelling.

"You little thief of the Qin family, how dare you be so disrespectful to this prince. I will repay you a hundred times for the humiliation you have suffered today!"

How dare you shout!

Qin Feng rolled up his sleeves, jumped up and shouted: "I won't take off your pants today, I will take your surname! Ning Hu, Xu Mo, what are you doing standing still? Chase after them!"

Li Zhang was shocked. He knew very well that Qin Feng really dared to take off his pants.

How dare you hesitate at all, turn around and run away.

The four brothers kept making noises all the way, and after a long time, they finally stopped.

With a dark face, Li Zhang punched Xu Mo on the shoulder and said angrily: "You ungrateful thing, you actually helped an outsider! You really turned your elbows away."

Upon hearing this, Xu Mo grinned and burst into laughter: "Your Majesty, you still have the nerve to say that since Brother Qin left the Northern Territory, you have been shouting at me."

"Now that Brother Qin is back, I naturally want to avenge my personal revenge."

Qin Feng tugged on the reins, with a smile on his face as well, and secretly sighed in his heart that having these brothers in his life was a life well spent.

"Your Majesty, what's going on over there at Eagle Ridge?"

Li Zhang had long expected that Qin Feng would ask about this matter. After all, Eagle Ridge is the most important strategic location at the moment.

"As one of the most important frontier strongholds in Beidi, Xiongying Ridge is already a wishful thinking if we can't take advantage of it and try to capture Xiongying Ridge again."

"Because we have missed the best opportunity to attack, Xiongying Ridge held on to its stronghold and made a tentative attack before. In less than an hour, we lost nearly 500 people."

"After discussion with Xu Mo, we unanimously decided to give up the attack."

"Now the entire Xiongying Ridge has been completely surrounded. According to the information we have in advance, the food inside can probably last for about two years."

“But because of the location of Eagle Ridge, the geology is dominated by stone, so getting water is a very troublesome thing.”

"So, Eagle Ridge can only support three months. Once the water is cut off, they have to come out and fight."

Knowing that the attack on Eagle Ridge was unfavorable, Qin Feng did not blame anyone, but just sighed.

He was in Kyoto, and even if the post station worked hard and could deliver the general's order to Kyoto within two days and two nights, it would still be too slow.

On the battlefield, everything is changing rapidly. Two days is enough to change a lot of things.

Moreover, Xiongying Ridge is one of the few heavy fortresses on the Beidi front line, which can be said to be impregnable.

Even if the soldiers under Qin Feng are good at attacking tough battles, they will have to pay a heavy price if they want to take down the hard nut of Xiongying Ridge.

Li Zhang can decisively give up the attack and adopt siege tactics, which is already the best choice.

Qin Feng sat on the horse, thoughtfully: "Three months? It's too long."

"I must capture Eagle Ridge before I enter the capital of Beidi, otherwise it will be difficult to make Beidi's hawk officials surrender."

"My pacification mission is called a 'return gift' to Beidi, but in reality it is a door-knocking mission."

Xu Mo on the side frowned: "Brother Qin, three months is still long? Our border town in the north had the highest record, but it was besieged by Beidi for six years."

"In the end, it was Beidi who couldn't bear it any longer and withdrew his troops in disgrace."

"In three months when the water in Eagle Ridge is cut off, we will be able to capture this heavy fortress with minimal losses."

"If we act rashly and radically, we may lose more than we gain."

Seeing that Xu Mo disagreed with the attack, Qin Feng didn't say anything. He just smiled and turned to look at Ning Hu.

"Ning Hu, what do you think?"

Ning Hu shook his head like a rattle: "Even Xu Mo said he couldn't attack, let alone me."

"Xu Mo's command is our regular army in Beixi County, suitable for a head-on confrontation with Beidi."

"Although the Tianji Camp guards in my hand are brave, it would be too wasteful to use them to fight tough battles."

"Since ancient times, the most troublesome thing about fortified battles is that any soldiers and generals who participate in the battle will be dragged to the same level."

"To attack a difficult situation, you can only use your life to fill it up."

It would be fine if it was just Xu Mo and Li Zhang who did not agree to attack the enemy. Even Ning Hu felt that the hope of attacking the enemy was extremely slim.

So tactically, this is definitely not a good deal.

But the political value of capturing Xiongying Ridge is extremely huge.

First, it can knock the mountain and shake the tiger, so that the die-hard hawks in Beidi will understand Qin Feng's strength and honestly accept all the terms proposed by Daliang as a defeated person.

Secondly, it can also show the strong national power of Daliang to the surrounding countries and make them worship.

This third point lies in internal affairs, which is enough to let the secretly dormant forces in the country understand that the external troubles in Daliang have been resolved. If they want to cause trouble in the future, they must first weigh the severity.

Qin Feng took a deep breath and said resolutely: "Get Eagle Ridge for me within a month!"

As soon as this statement came out, Xu Mo and the other three were all in disbelief and thought there was something wrong with their ears.

Li Zhang objected on the spot: "What? One month?"

"Brother Qin, you have never been to Xiongying Ridge to check it out in person. You don't know the scale of Xiongying Ridge, but you can understand it."

"I once accompanied the army and went to the front line in person. Due to the terrain, the city wall of Xiongying Ridge was built extremely high, a full five feet."

"Our border city, known as the first fortress on the front line, is only four feet high. The height of most cities is only two or three feet."

"In addition, the Eagle Ridge Fortress itself is located on a high terrain, so charging vehicles will not be effective."

"The ladder is out of reach. If the ladder is too long and not strong enough, and there are too many soldiers climbing up, the ladder will be crushed directly. If there are too few soldiers, it will become a tactic of adding fuel to the fire, and one after another they will climb up and be slaughtered."

"Even the grappling hook doesn't work!"

"You know, all the Beidi veterans in Zhouzhou have all retreated into Eagle Ridge. Not only are they numerous, but they also have extremely rich combat experience."

"Faced with these veterans who have defended the city for hundreds of years, the greater the intensity of the attack, the heavier our casualties will be."

If they firmly disagree with a high-intensity attack, as the attacker, even the most elite Beixi soldiers will only be massacred unilaterally when faced with the Beidi veterans who are defending the city.

In order to achieve political goals, regardless of the life and death of Beixi soldiers, this is by no means Beixi's foundation.
