"We have also conducted careful investigation and analysis on this. Now the troops stationed in this market town generally communicate with the garrison in Canton City once a week. Each time they contact each other through a single line of fast horse, which is quite regular. And because of the road leading to this market town, The road is a dead end, and there is no special area around it, so there are not many people coming and going. Tiancheng is thinking that he can use this time difference to tightly block the news, try to gather troops within a week, and then attack the enemy in one fell swoop when they are not prepared. Tengcheng." Putiancheng also conducted an in-depth investigation on this key point before he dared to draw this conclusion.
"Well, how many troops are there in Canton City?" Bixili was also moved by it. After all, this plan is too tempting. Not only can it greatly reduce the losses of his own army, but more importantly, once successful, it can put his side in a The strategic situation is quite favorable, especially it poses a great threat to the entire Northern Ronesia now under the control of the Lin family, and it is also very favorable for our side's next move.
"A regiment has about four thousand people."
"Well, this risk is worth taking, Juetian, what do you think?" Bixili repeatedly checked the map and walked back and forth in the commander's tent a few times before raising his head to seek the opinion of his minister of state.
"Well, although the risk is high, as you said, once we succeed, we will be in an extremely favorable situation. My opinion is not to be greedy for too much, and don't think about it for the time being. I estimate that once we capture Kanteng City, the Lin family will definitely try their best to take it back, so we must hold on to Kanteng City, and there will be no extra troops to seize Dayunkou." Lei Juetian looked serious and was thinking over and over again. After all the gains and losses of this plan, thinking about how a war could be without risks, he finally nodded and approved Pu Tiancheng's plan.
Pu Tiancheng was somewhat dissatisfied with the Minister of State's caution, but considering that once the Lin family made a mad counterattack, and the troops crossing the mountainous area from Beijing could not be guaranteed, he agreed to the modification of the plan. Facts have proved that Lei Juetian was quite cautious. correct.
Lin Yunfei was completely stunned by the sudden news. His hands holding the information couldn't help but tremble. His face suddenly became extremely pale, and beads of cold sweat silently oozed from his forehead. He roared violently. Said: "This is impossible! Where did they come from? Did they fall from the sky?"
The sergeant who made the report was also sweating profusely: "Reporting to the commander of the regiment, according to the reaction, the Machi Khans should have crossed over from the west to Beijing and crossed over to the Gaoligong Mountains in the west."
"Fart! Gaoligong Mountain is high and densely forested, making it difficult for humans and animals. There are no roads to pass through, let alone a large number of troops passing through! Are the people stationed in Kanteng all idiots who don't even know that the enemy has sneaked under their noses? You lied. Military intelligence, be careful with your head!" Lin Yunfei's face gradually returned to normal, but the protruding veins on his forehead and clenched fists revealed his true mood.
The sergeant's face was earth-colored and he was sweating profusely. He was speechless for a moment. Jin Shaobin, the deputy commander of the Sanjiang Second Army who had been checking the intelligence and had not said a word, frowned slightly and asked: "What is the situation now?" How is it? Is there anything unusual about the situation in Neil City and Dayunkou?"
"Back to your lord, we haven't found anything unusual in Neal City yet, but there is no news from Da Yukou yet." He breathed a sigh of relief, the sergeant still stood there and didn't even dare to wipe his sweat, and immediately answered .
"That's enough, get out!" Lin Yunfei, who was restless, waved his hand. The sergeant who received the order quickly ran away as if he was amnesty.
"Uncle Jin, now the Machikhans are openly sending troops to Northern Ronesia. Since they came over the Gaoligong Mountains, they shouldn't have many troops. I just don't know how they can conquer Kanten in one fell swoop? Do we have enough troops stationed in Kanten? A whole regiment!" Lin Yunfei angrily threw the information in his hands on the desk, but his eyes were fixed on the big map on the white wall.
The area with deep eyes was the Gaoligong Mountains, which they thought would be difficult for pedestrians. Unexpectedly, the army of the Machihans could actually cross this chasm. This was beyond everyone's expectation. However, the reality is before us. Since it is clear that it is an army of Machikhans, it is impossible for them to fall from the sky. They can only cross this insurmountable chasm. All of this can only be blamed on their own negligence.
"Well, but now we can't grasp how much time they spent to hide this situation, so we can't confirm how many Machihans came?" Jin Shaobin looked worried.
"Well, I don't have to worry about much now. What I mean is to immediately order the Second Division stationed in Neil City to attack Kanten with all its strength. I conclude that the number of Machikhans will not be too many. In addition, the three at Daxukou Alliance—?" Lin Yunfei looked at his elder and deputy with a questioning look.
"We can let them detach two regiments to cooperate in the attack. As long as Kanten is captured, everything will be over. If the war doesn't go well, they will all retreat to Dayukou immediately!" Jin Shaobin did not hesitate at all.
"What about Neil's side?"
"Order the Fourth Division stationed in Kika to immediately station in Niel. In addition, the Third Division stationed in Peacock City will also send two regiments to station in Niel to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to counterattack if the war goes unfavorably." The experienced Jin Shaobin did not think about it. Sheng first considered the unfavorable retreat, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
Huge slogans, flowers all over the street, and girls who warmly greeted them made He Lianbo and Linghu Yi, who led the Shuangdui Guard Division back to Shuangdui City, feel very excited. Although they paid a huge price, they won the victory. With the respect and love of the gentry and people throughout Northwest Luzon, it was only then that Helianbo and Linghuyi deeply realized how correct the decision they made at that time was.
Without that fight of blood and fire, although northwest Luzon could be returned to our own hands, the support of the people would be greatly reduced. No matter how disparate the strength between the enemy and ourselves is, after all, we have not given up on our responsibilities. , I have tried my best to do this, and I have a clear conscience. When almost everyone stepped into the Shuangdui City Yingbin Avenue where the people lined the streets to welcome them, they all raised their heads higher and lowered their waists. Stand taller because they are worthy of their honor.
The entire Shuangdui City was immersed in great joy for returning to the embrace of the empire. To celebrate this glorious moment worthy of special mention, the Shuangdui City Autonomous Government announced a three-day holiday for the entire Shuangdui City. People of all ethnic groups sang and danced, The gentry of all ethnic groups celebrated each other and the caravan travelers rushed to tell each other. They were all happy that Shuangdui had returned to its former glory three months after falling into the hands of the Luzon people.
Walking silently on the streets, drunken people can be seen everywhere. The whole city is intoxicated with the scent of wine. It seems that for a moment, the joy of the entire city has been spilled out. At this moment, the three of them feel that they are Really integrated with this city.
"Old Lu, it's all up to you that the double piles can be returned to our hands without any damage this time." As he walked, Helianbo, who had been baptized by a bloody battle, looked even deeper, but he still couldn't hide his joy at this time. Visible on the face.
"Hey, Helian, you don't have to be humble. If you, Helianhu, and the others hadn't fought so hard, I'm afraid our people in Northwest Luzon wouldn't be so united. Although we have lost countless good men, we have gained something in return. It is our dignity and glory in Northwest Luzon. If any foreign enemy wants to go against the public opinion of our people in Northwest Luzon, they must consider counterattacks from all aspects!" At this point, Luman's proud tone became very confident.
"Well, Lao Lu, this time you stayed in Shuangdui and dealt with the people of Luzon very well. I heard from Boss Liang that even Mr. Li also praised your performance. It seems that you will be here again soon. Are you going to be promoted?" Linghu Yi, with a playful smile, hit Lu Man's shoulder hard and said in a pretentious manner: "You kid wants to treat me!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Li is mainly focused on the eastern front. Our entire Northern Luzon has now become the rear area. The peaceful settlement of Northwest Luzon this time shows that Mr. Li does not want to tangle with the Luzon people here. , it is said that they have formed an alliance with the people of Luzon. It seems that Mr. Li wants to start a big fight in the east." Lu Man's eyes were quite deep, and he slowly drifted to the east.
"Well, that should be the case. Otherwise, why would your Excellency be able to tolerate the Luzon people breaking the contract? If not, the Guards Division would have arrived long ago." Linghu Yi nodded and said, "What a pity. It seems we can’t keep up and wait for good things.”
"Still trying to catch up with something good? Now that we have an incomplete security division and our designation has been revoked, it's not bad. Alas, it will take at least half a year to return to its original state." At this point, Helianbo felt resentful. His teeth were itching, after all, it was a troop he had personally trained, and every soldier had put a lot of effort into it, so to be sacrificed silently like this really made him heartbroken.
As if he had read through Helianbo's thoughts, Lu Man also sighed and said: "Helian, this peaceful settlement does not mean that we and the people of Luzon will live in harmony forever. I don't think you will be so easy. Let’s give up, it’s just that the current situation requires us and the Luzon people to maintain a relatively safe situation so that the entire Northern Luzon can have a good development environment to strengthen all aspects of strength. After all, war is about consumption. If the strength is not enough, it can be delayed. You drag us down, let alone continue the fight. The reason why we dare not expand the military on a large scale, and the military and the government are fighting wars of words about military expansion every day, is not because the economic strength cannot support it."
