Two days later, Qin Qihu and Yu Shizhong arrived at the Yanhuishan camp first.
The personal guards that Yun Zheng left in Shuofang have also set off, but because of their large number, they may arrive at the Yanhuishan camp a few days later than them.
"Walk with me!"
Yun Zheng called Yu Shizhong and went out of the camp alone.
Yu Shizhong took the order and followed Yun Zheng forward.
Shen Kuan led his guards far behind.
"You know everything about Xiqu, right?"
Yun Zheng asked.
"knew."
Yu Shizhong replied.
...
...
"What do you think about Xiqu?"
Yun Zheng stopped and turned back to ask.
“This is our chance!”
Yu Shizhong answered without hesitation: "If we can make good use of this opportunity, we will be able to greatly weaken the power of Xiqu and lay the foundation for destroying Xiqu in one fell swoop in the future!"
Yu Shizhong had thought about this question when he rushed to the Yanhuishan camp.
“This is truly a unique opportunity.”
Yun Zheng nodded and said, "However, we definitely cannot use our troops directly against Xiqu now."
"I understand!"
Yu Shizhong nodded. "Right now, our best chance is to create more civil unrest in Xiqu and get more Xiqu tribes to rebel! No matter how they fight, they are only weakening Xiqu's own strength!"
"Yes." Yun Zheng agreed with a smile, "Don't go to the battle against the Li Dynasty! Let Pang Jinjiu lead the army."
"yes!"
Yu Shizhong accepted the order without hesitation.
"So happy?"
Yun Zheng looked at Yu Shizhong with a smile, "Why don't you ask what I want you to do?"
Yu Shizhong: "Whatever your highness tells me to do, I will do it!"
Yu Shizhong's answer made Yun Zheng very satisfied.
Yun Zheng continued to walk forward and said slowly: "Go to Saga to help your father-in-law! Once you are there, get familiar with the situation first. As long as you think the time is right, you can raise an army at any time!"
"I obey your orders!"
"Also, Huo Gu's troops at Sawtooth Ridge will obey your orders! However, as I said before, we will not participate in the war directly if we can. The troops at Sawtooth Ridge are only there to prevent any disaster!"
"I understand!"
…
“Boom boom boom…”
The sound of the drum to gather the generals echoed in the camp at Yanhui Mountain.
As the drums sounded, all generals of the fifth rank and above went to the commander's camp to receive orders.
Yun Zheng sat in the commander's seat and said in a deep voice: "The Yu Kingdom attacked Yuzhou and massacred the people of Yuzhou!"
"I have decided to attack the Li Dynasty to lay the foundation for sending troops from the Li Dynasty to the Yu Kingdom in the future!"
"This time, we plan to send out 50,000 troops! We must win, not lose!"
"Before I give the official order, you can raise any thoughts or questions you have about this battle!"
"Pang Jinjiu, now you will tell the generals about the situation in the Li Dynasty!"
As Yun Zheng finished speaking, the generals' eyes fell on the map.
The generals in the camp had already received the news that Yun Zheng was going to send troops to attack the Li Dynasty.
At this moment, when officially talking about this matter, many people showed excitement on their faces.
This is not just about expanding territory!
This is also a preparation for them to take revenge for the people of Yuzhou!
No matter what, this is something that will bring honor to our family and go down in history!
Pang Jinjiu took the order, stood up quickly, pointed at the map with a stick, and began to introduce the situation of the Li Dynasty to the generals.
The information they received was limited, and Pang Jinjiu's introduction was also very quick.
"From the current situation, it seems that the only option is to attack Juncheng!"
"Nonsense, if we don't attack Juncheng, are we going to attack Yazhou?"
"As long as we take Juncheng, we can quickly occupy Lu'an Province and then head straight for Gyeonggi Province! In my opinion, with our military strength and your Highness's wisdom, 50,000 troops are enough to defeat the Le Dynasty!"
"That being said, don't be too confident!"
"Yes, the territory of the Le Dynasty is mostly mountainous, which is not very favorable for cavalry raids!"
"From the map, the terrain of Gyeonggi Province seems to be relatively flat. As long as we quickly occupy the entire Lu'an Province, our cavalry advantage can be brought into play..."
"I think supplies are the top priority!"
"Not necessarily. As long as we gain a firm foothold, we can use war to support war. The enemy's food and fodder will be our food and fodder!"
"Well, we still have to be on guard against the enemy navy's sneak attacks from behind..."
All of a sudden, all the generals started discussing.
Everyone has followed Yun Zheng for such a long time and everyone knows Yun Zheng’s rules.
Before Yun Zheng issued the formal order, they could discuss whatever they wanted, no matter whether their ideas were right or wrong, as long as they did not say discouraging words like surrender, Yun Zheng would not pursue it.
Yun Zheng listened to the discussion with a calm expression, cursing these bastards in his heart.
These bastards didn't even discuss how to take over Juncheng.
It seemed as if Juncheng was already in their hands.
Morale is quite high.
It's just a bit too expensive.
Or, it's a bit too ambitious.
For them, the ideal situation would be to capture Juncheng and force the Le Dynasty to surrender.
Instead of completely defeating the Le Dynasty.
"Regarding the attack on Juncheng, do you have any opinions?"
Yu Shizhong couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to ask.
Although he will not participate in this battle, it does not prevent him from discussing it with everyone.
Attack Juncheng?
After listening to Yu Shizhong's words, many people were stunned.
There are only 6,000 defenders in Juncheng. Isn't it easy for us to capture Juncheng?
"You all, after winning a few battles, have you forgotten your last names?"
Seeing this, Yu Shizhong gradually became angry and scolded: "How can 50,000 troops and their supplies cross the Dan River? Are they all going to grow wings and fly over? If the enemy counterattacks, how will we respond?"
Yun Zheng looked at Yu Shizhong with satisfaction, but said nothing.
After being scolded by Yu Shizhong, the generals suddenly realized what was going on.
yes!
The first thing they had to consider was not the overall strategy, but how the army and food supplies could cross the Dan River!
After they realized what was happening, everyone started discussing crossing the river and attacking Juncheng.
What they discussed were basically what Yun Zheng and his team had discussed before.
However, there are a few people who have put forward some other ideas.
After everyone discussed for more than half an hour, Yun Zheng slowly stood up.
As Yun Zheng stood up, all the generals followed suit.
"Qin Qihu, I order you to immediately mobilize Wei Jianshan's 30,000 reserve troops for use. Among them, 10,000 will be equipped with armor and 20,000 will be without armor!"
"Wang Qi, I order you to lead your troops as the vanguard. Once Wei Jianshan's reserve troops arrive, you will immediately integrate Wei Jianshan's troops, leaving 10,000 unarmored soldiers to assist the remaining troops in the camp to cultivate the land, and lead the other soldiers, carrying all the food and supplies needed by the army, through Zhenbei and Jiqing, and set up supply points for the follow-up army along the way, until you pass through the Modong Corridor, enter the Beihuan territory, and reach the Anda tribe!"
"Pang Jinjiu, I order you to lead 15,000 elite cavalrymen from our army to set out on April 6th and quickly enter the territory of Zhenhe. Set up a temporary camp for the army in the territory of the Zhenhe Dala tribe and strictly block the news of the advance! Anyone who dares to leak the news will be killed!"
"Lu Xing, from now on, you will no longer serve as the deputy general of the Blood Robe Army. I have other arrangements..."
One order after another came out of Yun Zheng's mouth.
Suddenly, an atmosphere of a war was spreading...
