Li Luo lowered his head and looked at the march map carefully. Liu Ce and Huchajing had retreated three hundred miles and were taking advantage of the terrain on the north bank of Lushui to block the Xirong pursuing troops.

Liu Ce was good at defending and Hucha Jing was good at attacking. Although Xirong's right army tried its best to attack, there was no danger for the moment. What's more, only the Qiang's left army was still unknown.

Before dispatching the troops, the generals discussed that the worst-case scenario was that the Qiang Xingzhi had already deployed their troops along the coast and ambushed Mu Tianlang's army. However, to this day, there is still no trace of the Xirong left army, and some clues can be found from time to time by horse scouts. , but it is difficult to know the truth. No one saw the Qiang Xingzhi's army with their own eyes, which made the generals a little more dignified.

Chi Li continued: "General, Qiang Xingzhi's move has wiped out the firepower and forced us to change our formation. However, he has missed the opportunity. General Di and Mr. Shen are running the army to conquer the west. They have many soldiers and generals. Mr. Shen's Qiang Xing's intelligence is not inferior to that of Qiang Xing, and it is not easy to get away. The general thought that our army was very fast, so he defeated the right army in Jie City before Qiang Xing's troops reached Lushui, and then the troops united to encircle and suppress them Qiang Xingzhi."

As soon as Chi Li finished speaking, all the generals in the tent nodded. Lu Dingyuan interjected: "If Jie City is defeated and the Qiang can't stand alone, they can only retreat to Yingchou Gorge. In the first battle, I, Mu Tianlang, can take back Dizhou." ."

Ding Zhan said: "General, the weather is getting warmer now, and the dew has almost melted. However, the river is not wide. You can cross the dew by looking for a narrow place. Hu Qiying quietly sends out troops at night, and they can be killed in less than a day. Jie City was caught off guard. If time goes by, Jie City may be on guard and it will be difficult for the surprise attack to be effective."

The generals lowered their heads and whispered, quite moved by Ding Zhan's proposal. Chi Li saw that Li Luo was still frowning and asked: "General, do you still have doubts?"

Li Luo said in a deep voice: "Qiang Xingzhi missed the opportunity, and we also missed the opportunity. Qiang Qingchi's troops came out of Shahu, and Xirong had already taken the lead. All our army relied on was the hostages in hand, so Xirong had no choice but to fight. Qiang The original intention of the trip was to echo the Qiang Qingchi and break through General Liu's camp first when our army retreated. However, General Di and Mr. Shen were not easy people. Moreover, General Liu's withdrawal was slow and there was no opportunity to take advantage of it. .If my guess is correct, Qiang Xingzhi’s cavalry will not be too far away from the dew, waiting for an opportunity to move."

The generals gasped, and Shi Zechen said in shock: "This Qiang Xing is so brave, he is not afraid that General Di and Lord Chang Shi will steal their retreat."

Chi Li thought deeply: "What does the general mean by his words? Will Qiang Xing give up the Tianshui defense line?"

Li Luo nodded and said: "If I were him, I would definitely give up the Tianshui defense line and rely only on Jie City. It would never be able to defeat our Shepherd Sirius army. If I don't send Qiang Qingchi to disturb Shahu, it may be difficult to say, but Once the Qiang Qing Pond moves, the remaining troops of the Xirong Zuo Army will definitely not sit idly by. At the latest, this battle will end in one month. Either our Shepherd Tianlang will return in defeat, or the remnants of the Xirong Army will retreat to Yingchou Gorge, and there will be no other outcome. ."

The generals were greatly shocked. Mu Tianlang's army had been occupying Dizhou for several months, and finally it was time for the final battle.

Ding Zhan laughed and said: "If you think about it, the general is far inferior to the general, and he can't guess what this Qiang will do. But when I lead troops in a battle, I will never be behind others. I have long wanted to see the power of Xirong's left army. Compare with us, Shepherd Tianlang, to see who can be better."

All the generals looked at Li Luo. Li Luo sighed slightly, then smiled and said: "Since Qiang Xingzhi is hiding nearby, we will lead him out. Chi Li, send the letter from General Di and Mr. Shen."

Is it done?”

"Sent it over. When our army left Luocao Mountain, the last general sent a message to General Di. The station on the way sent someone to report yesterday. The message was sent in three ways. It should have arrived by this time."

"Okay, the operation camp has indeed lived up to expectations. Today's flying birds are at least nearly twice as fast as before."

Chi Li said: "When I was still at Shuangfeng Camp, the general instructed me to give the secret of the letter to General Di. After reading it, General Di was full of praise and repeatedly praised the general's unique wisdom in his replies. In addition,

In addition, Shuying also developed a kind of gunpowder called Jinglei. This thing was used by the general in front of Luocao Mountain last time. Although it did not cause much damage, it could frighten the horses. The cavalry of Xirong who was caught off guard suffered heavy losses.

It's just that it's not easy to make. Fortunately, the general ordered General Qi to take care of the art camp, and this time more than 300 were made and sent over."

Ding Zhan said indifferently: "What can three hundred do?"

Chi Li smiled and said nothing, and Li Luo also smiled and said: "Three hundred are not many, but they should be enough to be used as surprise soldiers. This matter is a military secret and cannot be spread outside."

Chi Li then asked: "General, do you want to inform General Di about what was discussed today?"

Li Luo shook his head and said: "No need, as long as General Di and Mr. Shen know the movements of the Hu Qi camp, it will be too late to send a letter. The general will be outside, and the military orders will not be ignored. I believe Mr. Shen will not miss the Battle of Lushui."

Chi Li responded and said: "Dizhou is vast and sparsely populated, but there are three large cities and eleven small cities. Now that we have drawn out the dedicated right army, Qiang Xingzhi's left army will also send troops soon."

, the time and location are almost the same between the two armies, Dizhou fell into the hands of Xirong for only a few decades, the Xirong court has little management, and the two leading generals are not on good terms, in terms of harmony, I, Mu Tianlang, am still above Xirong."

"Haha, General Chi, don't forget that our army is several times larger than that of Xirong. Not to mention the 100,000 troops of Mu Tianlang, General Di still has 300,000 troops for the Western Expedition. If they all dispatched, they would only be able to collect 400,000 troops.

It's not a difficult task. When the time comes, our 500,000-strong army will be afraid of Xirong's 200,000 soldiers and generals." Shi Zechen said in a weird voice.

Chi Li's face turned slightly red and he said nervously: "It never hurts to be careful."

Li Luo smiled slightly and said: "When it comes to having many soldiers and generals and Dagan's century-old accumulation, Xirong is still far behind. If it weren't for the fact that the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government had formed cliques for personal gain and the government was corrupt, there would be no current situation." After saying this, he saw all the generals.

Silent, Ding Zhan turned back to look at the curtain. Li Luo couldn't help but smile. Without saying anything, he stood up, glanced at the generals, and said loudly: "Pass the military order."

All the generals stood up in a hurry and shouted in unison: "General, please obey your order."

"The Hu Cavalry troops were divided into two places. General Ding and I personally led 10,000 Hu Cavalry soldiers across the dew all night to raid the rear camp of Xirong's right army. General Ding immediately ordered the scouting horses to go ahead and pass the news to General Liu and

General Hucha, with the fireworks as a signal, we worked together to defeat Xirong's right army first."

Ding Zhan replied in a deep voice: "I will obey the order."

"Chi Li."

"The end will be here."

"You pick three thousand generals who are good at fighting in the army, follow me and General Ding behind the formation, go a hundred miles to the west, hide the military formation, and wait until the Qiang Xingzhi's army appears. Then attack the central army in Jie City and gather together our three groups of Mu Tianlang.

The soldiers and horses must defeat the right army of Xirong before the Qiang Xingzhi sets up their formation."

"The general will obey the order."

"There are also three hundred Thunder Gunpowder in the army. You can take it with you. You don't have to force Jie Cheng to be captured, just disrupt the Xirong Right Army's formation."
