Liu Feng, a Mercenary, transmigrated into a Turbulent Times filled with wars on all sides.

The world was in chaos, wars raged endlessly, the Imperial Court was weak, and powerful local rulers we...

Chapter 487 On Defense

What made Liu Feng happiest was the news about Taihe Pharmacy.

Chen Buyi lived up to expectations and basically figured out the situation at Taihe Pharmacy.

Just as Liu Feng had predicted, Taihe Pharmacy had stockpiled a large amount of grain, enough to feed an army of 10,000 for two months.

They used Tianyong City as an important grain gathering point, and then dispersed to transport grain to various surrounding counties.

And they were transporting the food within the last five days.

This means that they have five days to deliver the food, which means that in five or six days, the Heaven and Earth Society and the Northern Barbarians will be ready.

Meanwhile, at Dasanguan Pass, an army of ten thousand had already assembled in the Linghu family's courtyard, with a centurion standing ready, waiting for Liu Feng to come and take command from the center.

Everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.

But in reality, the great war had already begun when the Northern Barbarians and the Heaven and Earth Society secretly gathered.

With all the information gathered and everything that needed to be clarified, Liu Feng assembled all his subordinates and gave them final instructions.

"You have all received the message. I will be heading to Tianyong City to take command soon."

"Who among you will go to cut off the enemy's supplies?"

"I think it's better if you don't compete for the credit, and let Wang Dingliu take Chen Buyi to do it."

"yes……."

The two answered in unison.

"Linghu Yuanshan, how are the plans for the army's command and defense progressing?"

Linghu Yuanshan is the backbone of the army when Liu Feng is not around; Liu Feng can't do everything himself.

It's time for them to use their own brains.

"General, according to my plan, we should first make full use of the long-range attack capabilities of our Tiger Roar Army. Therefore, the first wave should use the ballistae and crossbowmen to attack at the same time to wear them down."

"Once they get close enough to give instructions, we will quickly withdraw from the first line of defense."

"To form a second line of defense based on the city wall."

"The city walls are high up, making it easier for us to block the enemy."

"Once they launch an attack on Tianyong City, Wang Dingliu's spies will light smoke signals on various hilltops to notify the general that the battle has begun."

"No matter how many enemies come, we can hold out for at least four hours. Four hours is the fastest time for reinforcements from Tianyong City to arrive."

Linghu Yuanshan spoke with great logic and reason.

Liu Feng nodded.

"Lin Xiaoxi, what about you?"

What are your thoughts?

Lin Xiaoxi blinked her big eyes. Wait a minute, that's not right. I'm only in charge of the city's security.

Do I even have a part in such a big matter as troop deployment?

However, on the other hand, Liu Feng never treated Lin Xiaoxi as an outsider. Whenever there was a battle, no matter how big or small, she would attend every pre-battle meeting.

Although she was a woman, her military skills were by no means lacking.

However, this time is different from any other time. Now, moats have been built, and city walls have been erected.

There will also be reinforcements from Tianyong City at that time.

He only had a guard force of less than a thousand men under his command, and in terms of training and equipment, they were no match for the regular Tiger Roar Army.

"General, you don't seem to have told me about this before. I... I..."

Lin Xiaoxi thought about it and realized that what each of them did was actually fixed.

All of this had been arranged by Liu Feng beforehand; all they had to do was carry out their tasks.

But now, everyone basically has a job.

Why was her name suddenly called out all of a sudden?

I can't just say anything I'm asked to say.

Lin Xiaoxi couldn't understand Liu Feng's meaning for a long time.

Wang Dingliu got anxious and punched Lin Xiaoxi directly.

"What are you thinking? Your task is to protect the village and maintain order in the city. If a major war breaks out, what if there are any ill-intentioned people in the village?"

"And there are several ladies in the village."

After being reminded by Wang Dingliu, Lin Xiaoxi immediately understood.

"General, rest assured, maintaining the situation in the village and protecting the lady is simply my duty."

"Even if I die, the ladies will be fine."

Liu Feng frowned slightly.

Lin Xiaoxi was not only slow to react, but she also uttered such ominous words.

"Remember this: if anyone attacks, your job is to lead the ladies to the water fortress along the waterway."

"The safety level of Shuizhai is higher than that of Zhengde County."

Although there weren't many people in the water village, Wu Jiang was there, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, with crossbows protecting it.

Therefore, it is safer.

Three hours later, Liu Feng arrived at the gate of what used to be the Linghu family's residence, which was now Tianyong City.

This once bustling mansion is now somewhat deserted.

The area in front of the mansion was overgrown with weeds and no one was cleaning it.

The streets, which were already sparsely populated, now appeared even more deserted and quiet.

Liu Feng did not enter from the front, as he was worried about spies from the Heaven and Earth Society.

He went to the side door and then gently knocked on the side door.

Soon, footsteps were heard inside. The door was opened and a door was opened. After seeing that it was Liu Feng and confirming that no one was around, Liu Feng was let in.

Once inside, the entire courtyard was packed with people, including the corridors.

After all, it was an army of 10,000, and it was indeed a bit crowded to put them in a general's mansion.

We arrived at the only courtyard that was relatively spacious.
