By the Yueshui River, King Wu is staying at his palace.

This time, the King of Wu led the expedition in person, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that all decisions made by the King of Wu must be approved by the masked man next to him.

"Grand Master, our army's spies have just received information that Qin Yun is sending his most elite troops to attack Jiushan City through Eagle Mountain. Do you think reinforcements are needed?"

Wu Zihui asked respectfully.

The masked man replied: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Wu Zihui said excitedly: "Our army is 600,000, and the enemy's army is 200,000. In this battle, 600,000 are against 200,000. The advantage lies with me. I think we should push forward with the force of plowing the court and clearing holes!"

"Eagle Mountain is the largest gap in the Beiyin Mountains. I think we should send superior troops to push back, so as to penetrate into the heart of the Yue Kingdom and decide the outcome in one battle!"

The masked man smiled and said: "How do you know this is not Qin Yun's bait? Qin Yun has always behaved erratically. I don't think Eagle Mountain will become his target!"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers were stunned.

"Grand Master, this was heard personally by the senior generals of the Yue Kingdom at the Qin Yun Military Conference."

The masked man smiled and said: "Exactly, it proves that Qin Yun will not target Jiushan City. Qin Yun wants to attack Beiyin City!"

"As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned?"

"Why is this?" Wu Zihui was puzzled.

The masked man motioned for the person to spread out the map.

He stepped forward and pointed: "Jiushan City is a full forty miles away from Eagle Mountain, and these forty miles are all plains. Qin Yun does not have a war horse in his hand. How can he cross these forty miles of plains and fight with our cavalry?" resistance?"

"On the other hand, Beiyin City outside Longxukou is right next to Pheasant Ridge. The terrain here is higher. You can quickly attack Beiyin City from a high position. If you capture Beiyin City, you can form a barrier!"

"If our army wants to cross Beiyin Mountain from Longxukou, it must first attack the city. You should have heard of Qin Yun's artillery fire. When it comes to defending the city, who of you dares to say that you can definitely capture it?"

"The most important thing is that Beiyin City can send troops at any time to cut off our logistics supplies to Beiyin Fortress. If it were you, where would you like to fight?"

"this……"

"Then why did he say that in front of all the generals?"

The masked man smiled and said: "Because he knows that I heard that Yulou is invincible in the world, and there must be one of our people around him. He deliberately released the bait."

Wu Zihui suddenly realized: "Okay, what the Grand Master said is absolutely true! When someone comes, send an order to the guards of Beiyin, Tianyue, and Jiuling to strengthen their defenses."

"In addition, Wu Qi, please lead 30,000 elite cavalry as quickly as possible to support Zhang Qi. You must wait until all of us have crossed the river."

"I accept your order!"

After speaking, Wu Zihui looked at the masked man again: "Master, do you have anything to add?"

The masked man waved his hand: "Let's do this for now! Let the civilians speed up. Although our army is large, it is an expedition. This white-haired wind and snow is our biggest enemy!"

"Grand Master, don't worry, I understand."



At Longxukou, the Qiongzhou Division and two battalions quickly assembled.

"General Bai, the prince has an urgent message!"

A soldier in a hot air balloon dropped a small spider plant in the sky with a letter inside.

Although Qin Yun ordered not to build additional hot air balloons, this is currently the only one that can ignore the terrain and communicate quickly.

After Bai Zhanpeng finished reading, he immediately wrote a few words with a wave of his hand and placed them in the hanging basket. The latter pulled up the basket and turned away.

"General, what are your instructions?"

The Qiongzhou First Division is basically all veterans of Qiongzhou, and they are the most elite sergeants except Zhulong Camp.

Tieshuan, Zhao Fengxian and others all served as regimental and battalion cadres.

Bai Zhanpeng muttered: "Your Majesty asked us to pass through the pass quickly without attacking the city, or besieging it without attacking!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

Tie Shuan was puzzled: "Why is this? We have heavy weapons and new siege weapons such as mortars. Isn't it easy to take Beiyin City?"

Bai Zhanpeng: "There are more than 10,000 of us, so what can we do to defend it if we capture it? Our real purpose is to escort the people from Tiangongyuan and build fortifications in the Pheasant Ridge area to block the Longxukou pass."

"Then where am I going to go?"

Bai Zhanpeng said: "Throw away all the baggage, travel lightly, and cut off the enemy's logistics channels."

Tieshuan's eyes lit up: "My subordinate understands!"

Bai Zhanpeng nodded: "Tie Shuan, you will lead the new battalion and insert it into the east side of Beiyin City first, creating the illusion of attacking the city and attracting most of the attention to the east city."

"Zhao Fengxian, you lead the assault battalion to bypass the north gate of Beiyin City. Remember, you can only encircle but not attack. After my general leads the large force to bypass Beiyin City, you will use the battalion as a unit to spread out in all directions, targeting the enemy. logistics supply convoy.”

"Remember, it is limited to ten days. After ten days, no matter whether you have achieved victory or not, you must return to Pheasant Ridge for supplies. If you encounter the enemy, you must not show off your aggression. Try to mislead the enemy as much as possible and give them the illusion that my army is pressing on the enemy!"

"In this battle, our goal is to win without losing."

"Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

"Okay, let's go!"

"yes."

Just as Bai Zhanpeng led his people through Longxukou quickly, Zhang Qi from Beiyin City also received an order from King Wu from behind.

"This is unreasonable. This Qin Yun must be a soft persimmon!"

"Come here, gather your troops and horses and be ready to fight at any time. I want to see how Qin Yun can fight with real swords and guns!"

"General, the prince has repeatedly warned not to act rashly and wait until Marshal Wu Qi arrives before making any decision!"

"Marshal Wu came to Beiyin City in person?" Zhang Qi's heart tightened. Although Wu Qi was from the clan, he was a concubine with a long bloodline. He started as a soldier and grew up to be a marshal step by step, and he was also his old boss.

Could it be that he came because of his failure last time?

Although the Zhang family belongs to a family of generals, and is even a distant relative in Daxia, and even has a Minister of War who is only one character different from him, Zhang Qi understands that this Marshal Wu is a ruthless person.

He must not reveal his flaws, so he immediately ordered: "Call the lady!"

"promise!"

Not long after, Mrs. Zhang, who was wearing an undershirt, entered the hall holding her little boy in braids.

Zhang Qi waved his hand, and the maid on the side took the child down.

He took a step forward, and Mrs. Zhang subconsciously shrank her hand. Judging from the exposed arm, there were still some bruises on it.

Zhang Qi then swore: "Madam, I, Zhang Qi, will never hit you again. It's my fault. I failed to protect you and let you get raped by that bastard Zhang Ermao..."

Mrs. Zhang paused: "Husband, it's my family that failed to keep their chastity. This slave family will die now!"

"Madam, what will happen to Yu'er if you die? As a husband, just don't mention this matter from now on."

Mrs. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief: "Seriously?"

Zhang Qi: "Seriously! However, madam, I have to do my husband a favor. Your brother-in-law will come to Beiyin City soon. If he knows about Zhang Ermao, you and I will not be able to bear the consequences!"

Mrs. Zhang: "Don't worry, husband, my brother-in-law has always loved me, but..."

Zhang Qi took the initiative to take Mrs. Zhang in his arms and said, "Madam, when I think about Yu'er and my husband's future, I have wronged you!"

Mrs. Zhang shook her thin lips and nodded slightly.

At this time, the guard suddenly came to report.

"General, we found an army under the banner of King Qin in the east of the city. The enemy's firepower is very fierce. They can hit the soldiers on my city wall with firecrackers from a thousand steps away!"

Zhang Qi's face condensed: "Okay, I, Mr. Zhang, didn't come to you, but you came to me instead. Give me all my troops to fight!"

"promise!"
