Ling Ning admits that he is a person who can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
Call him shameless or scoundrel, as long as he can achieve his goal as quickly as possible, he will try.
For example, right now, the fastest way to control the Shen family business is to drag the Shen family into trouble, and the specific method is to capture Shen Yueru.
As long as Shen Yueru becomes Ling Ning's woman, the Shen family can only be obedient.
At this moment,
Hearing Ling Ning's praise, Shen Yueru felt sweet and happy.
Ling Ning immediately stepped forward, walked into the room, and closed the door.
"Yueru, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. Are you willing to be my woman?" Ling Ning reached out and touched Shen Yueru's cheek.
Her cheeks are smooth and tender and feel very good.
Facing Ling Ning's straightforward confession, Shen Yueru's pretty face turned even redder, as if she was drunk, and she made an almost inaudible hum.
Ling Ning lifted Shen Yueru's pretty face with her fingers, then lowered her head and kissed her lips.
Shen Yueru's eyes widened at first, then blurred, and finally closed her eyes, responding to Ling Ning's needs in a confused manner.
Once again, the timing worked, and another step could be taken.
So Ling Ning directly picked up Shen Yueru and walked towards the bed.
Shen Yueru guessed what was about to happen. She was a little flustered, but she didn't stop it.
Ling Ning put her on the bed and looked at her acquiescence, so naturally he couldn't let her down.
…
[Congratulations to the host, you have gained a family member. 】
[Concubine 5: Shen Yueru]
[Age: 16 years old]
[Loyalty: 78 (Admiration)]
【Concubine’s pregnancy not detected! 】
[Please get pregnant as soon as possible and give birth to children, and the system will reward you with unexpected treasure chests. 】
Looking at Shen Yueru sleeping soundly in her arms, Ling Ning showed a satisfied smile.
Shen Yueru has become his own woman, and everything in the Shen family is under control.
Early the next morning.
Ling Ning said goodbye and left.
When Shen Yueru woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning. She saw the letter Ling Ning left for her, which was full of reluctance and obsession with Feng Yueru.
Shen Yueru hugged the letter tightly in her arms.
…
When Ling Ning returned to Lishui Pass, the imperial army had already entered the boundary of Lizhou and was only four days away from Lishui Pass.
Bai Zhanhou Huang Yuanzhang divided the 250,000 troops into three groups.
With one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, the troops were divided into two groups and stationed outside Guangyu Pass and Heiya Pass.
The 50,000-strong army obviously cannot capture Guangyu Pass and Heiya Pass, so the purpose of these two groups of troops is very simple, which is to hold back the troops at the two gates so that Zhang Sankuang and Du Shengheng cannot support Lishui Pass.
If Guangyu Pass and Heiya Pass support Lishuiguan and their troops are empty, then it is time to attack.
The remaining 150,000 troops mainly attacked Lishuiguan.
Since ancient times, attacking a city has been a bad strategy, but with five times more troops to attack the city, even if it is a bad strategy, Lishui Pass can still be taken.
This time, Emperor Liang's order to him was to destroy the rebels no matter the cost.
Therefore, Huang Yuanzhang was willing to sacrifice.
After knowing the attack plan of the imperial troops, Ling Ning naturally began to mobilize his troops.
There are already 20,000 soldiers and horses in Cangchen Pass, and another 3,000 will be transferred, for a total of 23,000 people. Yan Jin, Zheng Qingsong, and Bai Yunqi will be ordered to issue military orders. Cangchen Pass must be defended and the attack of Da Chen State must be repelled.
In addition, they each mobilized 3,000 soldiers and horses to Guangyu Pass and Heiya Pass, so that Zhang Sankuang and Du Shengheng had 18,000 troops, enough to resist the troops from outside the pass.
Five thousand of the remaining troops were left to guard the Yanzhou camp to prevent a fire in the backyard during the battle.
After this allocation, there are only 31,000 people in Lishuiguan.
At this moment,
In the Zhuque Hall of Lishuiguan.
Ling Ning sat with his hands on his hands. Sitting in the hall were Jia Huaiying, Huo Zilong, Zhao Zhijing and a group of leading captains.
"My lord, Huang Yuanzhang led 150,000 soldiers and horses to attack Lishuiguan, setting the stage for a bloody battle to the end. There are only 31,000 people in Lishuiguan. The gap of five times the strength is too big. How about bringing in the newly recruited soldiers? ?" Huo Zilong suggested.
During this time, 30,000 soldiers have been recruited from Yanzhou and are being drilled.
Ling Ning shook his head and said: "Guarding the gate requires strict cooperation. The newly recruited soldiers are not trained and can easily make mistakes. They may even stand stupidly on the city wall and be shot by arrows. Guarding the gate is even more difficult. It’s technical work, so we can’t let their sacrifice go in vain.”
Huo Zilong also understood this truth, but the force of 31,000 men was indeed too small and could not resist for a few days.
If the opponent only had 100,000 people, or twice as many troops, Huo Zilong would be confident to resist.
But now Yanzhou is surrounded by enemies on all sides, and there is indeed no excess troops available.
Just when everyone was feeling heavy, Ling Ning said with a smile: "I will solve the problem of military strength, but I need you to hold on to Lishuiguan for four days and try your best to kill the enemy."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Ling Ning.
Does the Lord still have an army in his hands?
Huo Zilong, Zhao Zhijing and other generals looked happy, while Jia Huaiying was a little surprised. According to his understanding, except for the Beiyou Army, the lord did not have any extra troops in his hands!
"Is there any problem?" Ling Ning asked.
The generals immediately stood up, their faces cleared of worry, and they all responded: "It's only been four days, there is absolutely no problem!"
Ling Ning nodded, and then asked the generals to go down and continue preparations, but left Jia Huaiying behind.
I saw Ling Ning's eyes blazing with murderous intent: "Sir, there is a long way to go to overthrow the Daliang court. After all, Daliang's background lies there. Therefore, if the anti-Liang cause wants to go further, the current battle must not only be won, but also And win beautifully!”
"So in this battle, I am prepared to severely inflict heavy damage on the troops coming from the imperial court, so that they will never come back!"
Facing Ling Ning's bold words, Jia Huaiying said excitedly: "My lord, if we can make this 250,000-strong army come back, it will definitely be a big deal for Daliang. After all, Daliang only has the only available troops. Millions, but also to resist foreign enemies. Once most of the 250,000 troops are wiped out, other forces in Daliang will inevitably respond to the lord's call to rebel against Liang and join the cause of rebelling against Liang."
Ling Ning agreed: "What you said is absolutely true. I am keeping you here to discuss how to better eliminate the enemy."
"May I ask how many hidden troops are left in your lord's hands?" Jia Huaiying couldn't help but ask.
Ling Ning glanced at the system, but there were only more than 7,000 warriors arriving, which was still very few.
But it doesn't matter. Ling Ning asked Huo Zilong to lead his troops to resist for four days. Within these four days, it will definitely cause huge casualties to the enemy. It is not a problem if twenty or thirty thousand people die. At that time, Ling Ning will be able to send down the same number of soldiers.
Let's imagine:
Huang Yuanzhang was leading his troops to attack Lishuiguan. Ling Ning quietly went around to the rear of the enemy army. With a wave of his hand, more than 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers appeared out of thin air and launched an attack on Huang Yuanzhang from the rear.
By then, Huang Yuanzhang will know what despair is.
After Ling Ning considered it, he said to Jia Huaiying: "There are at least 30,000 troops, all of whom are well-trained warriors. They can also attack from the enemy's rear. But they are all infantry, without horses, and are poorly equipped, with only the simplest weapons. "
The warriors of the system generals are very brave, but their equipment is rudimentary. They do not have full-body armor, only leather armor and ring-head swords to protect important parts.
This is where Ling Ning is disappointed with the system.
If you have a full set of armor, a variety of equipment and war horses, or heavy armor, hehe, that would be awesome.
Well, Ling Ning found that he was a little wishful thinking.
At this time, Jia Huaiying looked shocked!
Thirty thousand well-trained soldiers, even with poor equipment, can catch Huang Yuanzhang off guard if attacked from behind.
