Zhao Muyun's plan was more concise and had a clear objective.
“Han Zhong!” Zhao Muyun’s voice was steady.
"Your subordinate is here!" Han Zhong stepped forward.
"You are promoted to Jiedushi of Hedong, overseeing all military and political affairs in Hedong! Generals Tian Qing, Zhong Meng, Xiao Cheyun, Zhang Huan, and Wang Ben will be under your command."
"Yun, Sheng, and Feng prefectures are the gateways to our northern frontier, especially Yun prefecture, which must not be lost! General Xiao Cheyun is already fighting a bloody battle in Luzhou to stop the enemy. You need to take overall control of the situation in Hedong and ensure its stability!"
"This humble general will certainly live up to the great trust placed in him by the Grand Commander!"
Han Zhong knelt on one knee, his voice resounding.
He knew that Hedong was Zhao Muyun's foundation and could not be lost.
"Fan Nan will assist the young Prince of Jin, reside in Xijing, oversee all political affairs and logistics, and ensure the safety of the front lines."
"Your subordinate obeys."
"Lin Feng, the defense of the western, eastern, and southern sides is entirely your responsibility! You should know the key points of Longmen Pass."
Lin Feng: "Understood!"
Although a cooperation agreement has been reached with Li Jingang, one should still be wary of others.
In particular, Yang Chao from Jiannan Road and Yang Yan, who was not content with being alone.
Then, Zhao Muyun's gaze swept over his many fierce generals, "Wu Shangzhi, Guo Luo, Murong Chunhua, Namtso!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
The four cavalry generals responded in unison, their voices shaking the rooftops.
This force of seven thousand cavalry, comprising members of the Murong, Wuhuan, and Qiangrong tribes, constitutes Zhao Muyun's core mobile force and can be considered the elite of the elite.
"Xi Sheng!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Xi Sheng, the captain of the Mo Dao Battalion, stood as firm as a mountain.
"Liu Yi!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Captain Liu Yi of the Divine Machine Battalion said sharply.
"Tang Yanhai!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Tang Yanhai, the captain of the scout battalion, was lean and expressionless, with a cold scar on his face.
"Your three divisions will be integrated with my central army and will be personally commanded by me."
"Our objective is not to confront Wuzhu head-on, but to advance from Hedong through Jingxing, penetrate deep into Hebei, launch a surprise attack on the Tartars' rear, cut off their supply lines, and harass their heartland. The ultimate goal is to strike directly at Youyan and recover our lost territories!"
This strategy is extremely bold, akin to a lone force venturing deep into enemy territory and snatching teeth from a tiger's mouth.
And none of these troops are suitable to be commanded by anyone other than Zhao Muyun himself.
All the generals knew that Zhao Muyun always used surprise tactics and was obsessed with recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun. Their blood boiled, and they roared in unison:
"I am willing to follow the Grand Commander to recover Yan and Yun and uphold the might of our army!"
"Furthermore!" Zhao Muyun looked at Fan Nan, "Immediately send someone to Black Du Mountain as quickly as possible to bring Minister Pei Lun back to Xijing!"
