Chapter 619 The Situation and Distribution of Yanzhou

Wang Dingliu held Lin Yuan's secret letter in his hand.

Along with the superstition came a military order, which commanded the logistics troops of Tianyong City to hand over their provisions to the Tiger Roar Army.

As for the other matters, they were all explained in the secret letter to Liu Yuan.

Liu Feng pondered for a moment. Under the current circumstances, according to the timeline, Lin Yuan's northern expeditionary army should have reached the point where it was time for the Heaven and Earth Society to attack.

I myself needed to work harder in the past.

The Heaven and Earth Society will certainly not give Lin Yuan much breathing time.

Judging from the time the military order was issued, Lin Yuan's supply train was attacked three days ago.

Even if I were to gather my troops and set off now, it would still take me five days to arrive.

The army escorting the supplies will only be slower.

"Do you have any specific information about the Heaven and Earth Society's attack on an army with limited logistics?"

Liu Feng asked.

Wang Dingliu shook his head. Although his spies had been dispatched long ago, the Heaven and Earth Society was tightly organized, making it difficult for his spies to be effective.

At this moment, Lin Pinzhi stepped forward.

"General Liu, Lin Yuan's northern expeditionary army is currently in Honghe City, Yanzhou."

"There is only one army of the Heaven and Earth Society around Honghe City, and the general in charge is Wang Shigao."

"He was originally a fourth-rank military officer in the imperial court. I don't know how he joined the Heaven and Earth Society. He didn't have many men under his command. Basically, the Heaven and Earth Society handed over the troops around Red River City to him, and it wouldn't exceed 20,000 men."

"Although his men are not seasoned veterans, he is a native of Honghe and has a very high reputation in the area. If he wants to gather more people, he can still do so."

"If General Liu wants to provide support, my advice is to set off as soon as possible and make a swift decision, lest things get complicated."

"Okay, thank you for letting me know."

The commander-in-chief of the Heaven and Earth Society's army was naturally their leader, Yan Kangjie.

Yan Kangjie has many subordinates, an elders' council, and a large number of highly skilled martial artists.

Yan Kangjie's men were responsible for various aspects of the army and led troops in different locations.

The same applies when they rebelled; these people led the common people and their previously organized followers to respond in different places.

The overall situation in Yanzhou is very complex, and it is completely different from that in Youzhou.

There are seven major cities in Yanzhou, and most of them are located along rivers.

The first city connected to Qingzhou is Honghe City, which is also where Lin Yuan's army is currently stationed.

As for the areas further north, there are cities like Beijiang City and Shanyan City, which are all connected to the Northern Barbarians and serve as first-line cities for defending against them.

These three cities in Beiyan Prefecture were collectively known as Yanbei.

Now, Yan Kangjie has handed over all matters in Yanbei to Wang Shigao, a native of the area.

The most famous of these is Beijiang City, a place with highly developed commerce. It is the main city for trade between Yanzhou and the Northern Barbarians, holding a superior position.

After these three cities comes Yanyang City. Yanyang City is special because it is rich in a type of military supply: grain. It is like a granary for the entire Yanzhou.

Moreover, it is the central hub of Yanzhou. No matter where the caravans are going, they must pass through Yanyang City. It is also the only way from Yanzhou to the capital.

The person currently occupying Yanyang City is a very important figure under Yan Kangjie, named Huang Youyun.

Next came Yanzhou City, where Yan Kangjie, the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society, was personally stationed. It was the central hub and capital of the entire Yanzhou.

After that, there were three more cities, which were close to Liaodong and were controlled by Yan Kangjie's younger brother, Yan Shaojie.

In fact, these three cities were also the Heaven and Earth Society's retreat route, Yan Kangjie's greatest reliance, and the society's biggest backup plan.

If Liu Feng wants to go to the source of the Three Rivers and then detour through the tribe of Jinjila, he will have to conquer each city one by one.

Only by killing them all can this road be cleared.

The current situation is that Lin Yuan has occupied Honghe City and has a foothold in Yanzhou.

But this place originally belonged to Wang Shigao.

Since his territory had been occupied and he couldn't retake the city immediately, it was entirely understandable that Wang Shigao sent men to attack Lin Yuan's rear.

Lin Yuan is still too inexperienced and lacks experience in leading troops into battle. At this time, he should focus on holding the line, stabilizing the situation in Honghe City, and building a solid stronghold for his northern expeditionary army.

However, Lin Yuancai encountered such a small attack and immediately asked Liu Feng for help, showing no demeanor of a great general.

What do we do now?

"General, what's next?"

"They sent people to escort the supplies, but they also led a large army to provide assistance."

Wang Dingliu asked a question.

Liu Feng glanced at the group from Longya Lake who were still playing around with him and were about to head back, and he made up his mind.

"Gather the army and prepare to depart..."

"Perfect timing, since you all need to return to Longya Lake, I'll escort you for a while."

Liu Feng's real concern was for the artisans of the Jila tribe, so he believed that a swift victory was best in dealing with the Heaven and Earth Society.

The people from Longya Lake are here now, perfect timing! Weren't you all so arrogant?

Then let me show you what the Tiger Roar Army is all about, and see if your rabble from Dragon Tooth Lake can withstand several attacks from the Tiger Roar Army.

They still dare to say they'll recruit me.
