Chapter 542 What a big game of chess
Dingxi County, the garrison of the Yanhui Legion.

As soon as it was dawn, the door of Tian Hongyan's room rang loudly.

"Who is it!"

When he opened the door, he saw a military adviser with an anxious face standing outside.

"Come here so early to look for this general," Tian Hongyan looked at the sky with an unhappy expression, "Did something happen?"

"This subordinate deserves everything for disturbing the general's rest." The military adviser hurriedly said, "But last night, my subordinate and the general went around the fortress, and I always felt that something was wrong."

"So I tossed and turned all night, and finally figured out something strange. After sorting out my thoughts, my subordinates felt that the life and death of the legion were at stake, so they hurried over early in the morning to report to the general."

"It's about the life and death of the legion?" Tian Hongyan couldn't help but straighten his face, "You mean that General Huo and General Kong have other purposes for leaving the fortress?"

"That's right." The military adviser slapped his thigh, "The two generals have such identities, but they left the fort at the same time. They said that they went to recruit soldiers in person. The subordinates thought it must be not that simple."

"It's cold in late spring, come in and talk slowly." Tian Hongyan let the door open.

The two entered the meeting room.

The military division didn't speak, and went straight to the large cloud hanging map on the wall.

"General," he drew a circle between Tianshui County and Yingling County, "this is the hometown of the Yingling Army. There are about [-] people in their blood camp."

Tian Hongyan was a little puzzled, but still nodded slightly.

The army division moved down to the surrounding areas of Laigu County and Miwu County.

"Last year's counterattack in Dingxi caused heavy damage from all sides, resulting in a serious shortage of coffins in the fortress. General Huo sent a large number of soldiers to the Luoxia Mountains to cut wood and build coffins."

"Did the general remember that?"

"I would have known about this." Tian Hongyan was at a loss, "What's wrong?"

"General," the military adviser's eyes suddenly became very strange, "General Wei sent many people to the Luoxia Mountains, but they didn't cut wood to make coffins, so we don't know."

"What do you want to say?" Tian Hongyan shuddered, and his eyes subconsciously fell on Laigu County.

Under Ren Ning's new policy, Laigu and Misty County changed from dilapidated to full of vitality.

Moreover, the two counties have been building post roads.

After more than two years, the bad road when Ren Ning sent Ling back to his hometown had already changed.

Especially the current governor of Miwu County happens to be named Ren, and he is also Ren Ning or Ning King's nominal adoptive father.

Therefore, if Huo Ling really wanted to do something, no matter where he appeared, it wouldn't be too surprising.

Hey.

After the military division waited for the general to digest, his hand slid down again and landed on Xingluo County.

"Xingluo County is located in the southwest, and it rarely snows. In the past few months, others were celebrating the New Year happily, but the Xingluo Legion has been sending people to the north to transport military rations."

"According to reliable sources, Guan Luping, the post-blood battalion leader, is now in Hanoi County, or at Xinglan Grand Canal."

After finishing speaking, the military division drew a circle on the pier across the river.

Tian Hongyan stared at the circle in the center of Yunchui, his face was ashen.

Although the ferry terminal is still far away from the emperor.

However, the Xinglan Grand Canal is well maintained and unimpeded. As long as people board the boat, they can reach Xingji City within three days.

"What exactly does Xingluo want to do?" Tian Hongyan couldn't help but ask.

However, the military adviser did not answer, and drew a circle on the post road east of Xingji City.

"What is this?"

Tian Hongyan was at a loss, he didn't remember any legions and troops in this position.

cough.

The military master coughed, and his fingers landed on Beihai Pass.

"General, this part of the force is the Beibei Army formed by the fat man of King Jin and Huang Minggang. You know that Huang Ming is the grandson of the Duke of Zhenguo, and the fat man went to Guangxin County for training four years ago. To some extent Speaking of which, they are also King Ning's men."

"The North Army that was just formed?" Tian Hongyan came back to his senses and waved his hands in disgust, "Master, you think too much. They shouldn't worry about it."

The major legions are now performing their duties, and there is no one to spare.

The so-called Northern Expedition Army led by Huang Ming was composed of those county lieutenants who were far away from the war. You sent thousands of troops and I sent thousands of troops.

The personnel in the army are complex and have different levels of training, making it very difficult to adapt.

Normally it's really nothing to worry about.

"General," the military adviser said disapprovingly, "before reaching Beihai Customs, their role is not to fight, but to block here!"

After finishing speaking, his hands focused heavily on Huayang County.

"The post roads around Huayang County are smooth, but there are many water systems. If something happens, as long as Huang Ming and the others stand on the bridge, it will become very difficult for the cavalry of the Central Army to return to the capital by land."

Tian Hongyan's face sank, and he nodded silently after a while, "You are right."

"Also," the military adviser continued to strike at his fragile heart, "A few years ago, His Majesty promoted the reform of the Yunchuibei garrison, and the thirty county lieutenants were withdrawn. Now there are only ten people. And these ten county lieutenants are almost all A county lieutenant from the frontier."

"King Ning is fighting everywhere and has close ties with many of them."

After finishing speaking, he marked on the map the current residences of the original Baihua County, Xiyuyu, and Guangxin County captains.

After doing all this, the two took a few steps back, then looked up at the map.

More than ten large and small circles have already woven into a big net, firmly trapping Xingji City in the net.

The two looked at each other, both of them were a little shocked.

The two big characters popped into Tian Hongyan's mind instantly.

Qin Wang,

Or Qingjun side!

"General, so many circles support King Ning, let's count the ones who support His Majesty."

Ugh.

Tian Hongyan looked up to the sky and sighed.

Do you still use numbers?

Now only they go back to the Legion, the Central Legion and the East Sea Barrier are standing on the side of Xingji City.

Three of the five major frontier corps are standing on the side of Xingji City, which seems to be good.

However, the Yanhui Legion is now in Dingxi County, to be exact, near the Yanfeng Fortress.

Even if Huo Ling didn't send anyone to stop him, in an emergency, the Luoxia Mountains in the middle would be an insurmountable moat.

As for the Central Army Corps that originally arched the satellite Jicheng.

Feng Haohan was disturbed by the imperial envoys sent by Emperor Changxing and the military department who were staring at him. He said he was not afraid, but he had already left Ruinan County as a whole.

Now the waterway is stared at by pipelines, and the land route is blocked by the Northern Army.

If something happens, they probably won't come back.

As for the East China Sea barrier.

Ugh.

The military division looked at Pinghai County in the east and shook his head slightly.

"Your Majesty is also true. Although his health is getting worse day by day, he may die at any time, but he still wants to hold on to the power in his hand. He even tried to balance the strength of the prince and King Qi at the last moment."

Tian Hongyan nodded.

Their Yanhui Legion only listened to Emperor Changxing, but the Central Legion was different from the East China Sea barrier, and they had already clearly stood on the side of the crown prince and King Qi.

Now that King Qin became the prince, Emperor Changxing simply detained Lu Fuhai for the sake of Yunchui's future peace, trying to turn over the military power of the East China Sea barrier.

"However, the East China Sea barrier is still immobile now. And the lord is not here, if something really happens to Xingji City, it is estimated that at least a few of them will not make a sound."

Tian Hongyan figured everything out, and couldn't help feeling chills down his back.

It's a huge game of chess, and I don't know when Huo Ling and the others started playing.

boom.

He punched the table hard, and his eyes fell on the newspaper that smelled of ink.

No wonder His Majesty named Ren Ning King Ning without saying a word, and Xingji City has always been calm.

In this case, it has to be static.

"General," the military adviser reminded, "King Caining is powerful now, and it is time for our legion to make a decision."

Tian Hongyan pondered.

He understood what the military division meant.

It's nice to call it a hero; it's ugly to say that if you can't beat it, then join it.

"Okay!" He nodded resolutely, "Then what else can we do now?"

The military adviser licked his beard, "King Ning is a warrior on the battlefield, and he likes fellow soldiers the most. We should focus on this in the future."

"For example, when recovering the North Sea, order the Blood Battalion to attack with all their might."

"Yes." Tian Hongyan was not surprised, and then he took out the letter paper and began to write in a hurry, "I will give orders to the Houxue camp immediately."

"Secondly," the military division raised his hand a little and landed deep in the grassland, "As the general taught me yesterday, we have to do something famous on the grassland."

"This..." Tian Hongyan was prepared in his heart, but he still couldn't help frowning.

He is not afraid of expedition to Xiliang, but the grassland is vast and the road is far away, so he needs a lot of food.

Most of the grain and grass in the west frontier were hoarded in the rock frontier fortress. Without Huo Ling's permission, they would definitely not be able to get it.

　Hit, positive.

　　I feel bad all over.
