The sand table has all the terrains of the entire north and the northern Mongolian Plateau, and various forces in the north are also marked on the sand table.

Shangjing, Zhongjing, and Tokyo belong to Liangshan, and the large areas in the west should also belong to Liangshan. It's just that the Xixia people have been making constant moves recently, and they even occupied some small cities in the west!But Xixia people are nothing to fear!

Yue Fei and the others focused their attention on the Mongolian grassland above. Most of the places there are flat, but there are also quite a few big mountains and rivers.

The south of the Mongolian grassland is the Yinshan Mountains, and the area around the Yinshan Mountains is now the territory of the Wanggu tribe. The Wanggu tribe has cooperated with Hu Sanniang, and they are now Liangshan's allies.It's just that the strength of the allies is limited, they can't help Liangshan at all, instead they need Liangshan to deliver supplies to them.

To the east of the Mongolian steppe is the Daxing'an Mountains, which is also the northern boundary of Liangshan.To the north of the Mongolian steppe is the Kent Mountains, and the Onan River, the mother river of the Mongols, is also there.It is the place with the most abundant aquatic plants on the entire grassland. The three huge tribes of Qiyan, Mierqi, and Naiman are all distributed within a radius of a thousand miles. Apart from these three huge tribes, there are also There are countless small and medium tribes.It can be said that this area is the most "prosperous" place on the grassland, and the population here accounts for one-third of the Mongolian grassland population.

There are also many mountains in the western part of the Mongolian grassland, the most famous being the Altai Mountains, but in the hearts of the Central Plains people, there are only "unnamed mountains".It is too far away from the Central Plains, and the pace of the Central Plains people has not come there at all.Not to mention the Central Plains people, even the original Liao Kingdom and Jurchen, their sphere of influence was far from reaching there.

A little to the east of the Altai Mountains, there is the famous Tatar Ministry.To the south of the Tatar tribe, close to the desert, is where the fallen Kele tribe is located.In addition, information from Liangshan indicated that Yelu Dashi seemed to have gone there as well, and he gathered dozens of Khitan tribes to form a relatively large tribe.

Compared with the Kent Mountains and the place where the Onan River is located, this is another prosperous area of ​​the Mongolian grassland, and the population here accounts for almost one-third of the grassland population.

There is still one-third of the population on the grasslands distributed in the remaining several thousand miles. There are no super tribes among them, at most there are only some medium tribes with tens of thousands of people.

"This time I will personally lead the troops to the north and defeat the Mongols in one fell swoop." Yue Fei said.

"Brother, you are the commander of the group army, you should be stationed in Shangjing City! I should go north to the grassland." Zhang Xian said.

"No! There will be no wars in Shangjing for a while! The Xixia people in the west took advantage of the fire to plunder and occupy the place that should belong to us! But they will never dare to continue to invade Shangjing! The environment on the grassland is complicated, so let me compare it." Good." Yue Fei said.

"Commander, I wonder how many people you want to bring north?" Zhang Jun said.

"Thirty thousand cavalry is enough! Han Chang, Hu Yanting, this time you all go north with me!" Yue Fei said.

"Okay!" Han Chang and Hu Yanting hurriedly agreed, especially Hu Yanting, whose face was full of excitement!Over the years, Yue Fei's army has been fighting continuously, but Hu Yanting has hardly received any important appointments, and every time he is at the rear, this makes him very depressed.Now he finally has a chance to make a difference.

"We are going to the grassland this time. For me, it is equivalent to an exercise, equivalent to a winter training! The winter in the grassland is not so easy to spend! Hu Yanting, you go to inform the soldiers and let the soldiers prepare well , Be cautious when you are on the grassland." Yue Fei said.

"Okay!" Hu Yanting nodded, and went to do it now.

The rest of the people were still standing in front of the sand table, Yue Fei said: "The best weapon to deal with the Mongolian tribes in the grassland is the rocket."

"Rocket?" The people next to him couldn't help being stunned.

"That's right, it's a rocket! The Mongols don't have city walls, no civilized houses, and they live in tents! As long as the rockets hit them, their tents will catch fire, and their people will be killed and injured! This time I went north In the grassland, I will try my best to avoid fighting with the Mongolian army, I will attack their rear and burn all the Mongolian tribes." Yue Fei said flatly.

Burning the tents, I'm afraid ordinary Mongolian people will suffer heavy casualties!Even if they were not burned to death on the spot, the tents were burned, and the supplies were burned, it would be difficult for them to survive the winter!

The war of this era is so barbaric and cruel!Even if it is kindness, it is for one's own people, or for the people under one's rule!For those Mongols, the Liangshan army has no kindness to speak of!At the moment when Yue Fei said these words, Zhang Xian and others next to him did not have the slightest objection.

These generals all know that Mongolia has a small population. If a large number of Mongols can be burned to death, then the foundation of the Mongols will be over.This hit the Mongols very hard.

"Brother, you have been preparing for the rocket since September this year, so it was for this reason." Zhang Xian beside him said with a smile.

"Are you ready now?" Yue Fei said.

"Brother, the [-] rockets you requested are all ready! Our rockets were developed by the craftsmen of the Academy of Sciences, and the kerosene painted on them is so powerful that even strong winds cannot blow them out." Zhang Xian said.

"That's good." Yue Fei also laughed.

"Commander, where are you going to march from?" Yang Lin asked.

"We detoured from the Yinshan Mountain, starting from the west of the Yinshan Mountain, and then went to the Naiman tribe and the Qiyan tribe by the Onan River! As long as these super tribes are eliminated, the remaining small and medium tribes will be easy to deal with! Apart from us, the first The Fifth Group Army will also be dispatched, and they will start from Liaodong, targeting only the Mierqi tribe!" Yue Fei said.

Hearing that the Fifth Army was also dispatched, these people in the military department all laughed.

The Third Army and the Fifth Army cooperated to attack the rear of the Mongolian ministries together with the Fourth Army and the Seventh Army on the Mongolian grassland!Liang Shan has used so many troops this time, there should be no problem in wanting to win.

In the early morning of the second day, Yue Fei, Han Chang, and Hu Yanting led [-] cavalry towards the north!All cavalry are two or three riders per person!One of the horses carries people, and the other horse holds rations!They prepared well this time, and each of them had enough rations to live on the grassland for two months!After two months, if the war mission can be completed, that would be the best!If you can't finish it, don't be afraid, there are so many tribes on the grassland, and those grassland people can be robbed by then!

In the area of ​​Huining Mansion in Liaodong, the cavalry of the Fifth Army is also constantly gathering.

The fifth group army is different from other group armies. This group army was formed by Sun Li's army and Luan Tingyu's army together!At the beginning, Sun Li's army suffered extremely heavy losses, and now the recruits have not yet arrived, while Luan Tingyu's troops have retained most of their strength.

There is no snow here, but the weather is very gloomy.

In the early morning of this day, Luan Tingyu's cavalry began to set off.

This time they also brought [-] soldiers and horses, and many soldiers and horses stayed in Huining Mansion area!There are still many Jurchen tribes in the deep mountains and old forests in the north of Huining Mansion. Although these Jurchen tribes are not strong enough, many people hate Liangshan, so they must leave a guard army here.

Luan Tingyu was riding on a horse, holding an iron rod in one hand, and commanding the army to move forward.His disciple Zhu Biao followed behind him and talked to him.

"Master, if we make great achievements on the grassland, can we separate from the Fifth Army and become a new army?" Zhu Biao said.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Luan Tingyu frowned.

Although the two armies merged, Sun Li was the commander and Luan Tingyu was the deputy commander. Therefore, many of Luan Tingyu's men were dissatisfied, and many wanted to separate from the Fifth Army.

"Sun Li joined Liangshan not as long as we did! His status back then was not as good as ours! Why did he become the army commander and let you be the deputy army commander?" Zhu Biao said.

"It's just a name! In fact, General Sun and I have already discussed it. Now he is mainly in charge of the civil affairs of Liaodong Province, while I am in charge of the military affairs of the Fifth Army." Luan Tingyu said.

"Oh?" Zhu Biao was taken aback, this was the first time he had heard of this.

"In fact, General Sun has already written to the governor, recommending me to be the commander of the Fifth Army, but you don't know about it." Luan Tingyu said.

He was very emotional in his heart, and he refused to accept it at first, but Sun Li's actions made him very ashamed.During this period of time, although the people below did not understand the truth and often showed dissatisfaction, he obeyed Sun Liyan.Now that his disciples are saying this, he really can't help but tell what Sun Li did.

Zhu Biao froze there all of a sudden, his face was full of astonishment, he didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to give up the position of army commander, it was really inconceivable.

"Let's go! Go to the grassland! Let's do it!" Luan Tingyu roared, and rushed forward with his horse and man, and Zhu Biao hurriedly followed.
