Ning Sangyu's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Are you happy now?" This made him seem like a bad person for not buying it for her.
"Happy." She has been craving it for a long time.
"We haven't cooked at home for a few days, and some friends are coming over. What do you want to eat? I'll make a few more dishes."
"Sea bass with vinegar and pepper, and shredded tripe with coriander." Ning Sangyu said casually, "Who wants to come?"
"His name is Chen Tongyou, and he brought me something."
"Oh." Ning Sangyu sat on the chair, "Brother, where is Brother Kuang Heng? I haven't contacted him for many years."
"He's probably still abroad. I asked someone I know about him half a year ago. He'll report back if he has any news." Ji Huaimin let go of her hand. "But I did receive a letter from Chiheng. He'll be at the dock in half a month."
This era was too chaotic. Letters were too slow and too easy to be lost. Wars also made it impossible for letters to have an exact location.
"Is Brother Chiheng coming back? How about we give him a welcome party? Zhang Zhibo's problem is all thanks to him."
"good."
At night, Yue Xiangli arrived at Chaoling Mountain. After exchanging the secret code, Hua Zhige strode towards him.
"General, the third feint attack on the second southeast city is underway. Most of the troops in the second southeast city have been transferred to the second southeast city."
"Groups one and two are ready to go."
"Well, adjust the status and attack the city in the second half of the night." Yue Xiangli glanced at the map, "One regiment of soldiers will be divided into three groups. One battalion will suppress the enemy with firepower, the second battalion will attack from behind, and the third battalion will intercept the reinforcements."
"A quick battle, a quick decision. I will lead the second regiment to Pingxi City. We will attack both cities simultaneously. We must capture the second east city before dawn and surround Binyang City, which has temporarily fallen into the hands of the enemy."
"Yes!" Hua Zhige gave the order quickly.
Yue Xiangli led his men to march at night and captured Pingxi City with heavy firepower at five in the morning. They then rested for half an hour. When the Fang clan was caught off guard, they left half of their troops to cut off the reinforcements and supplies passing through Donger City.
At the same time, he took the other half of the troops back to retake Binyang City.
Three days later, the state of emergency in four cities including Gaoshui City that were attacked was lifted.
Yue Xiangli stood on the city gate and watched the soldiers take the prisoners away. Hua Zhige and the commander of the Third Division, Yan Qiupei, followed behind him.
"Binyang City was captured in the middle of the night, which means the defense has been figured out and there are spies in the city."
"Within two days, we will eliminate the spies, rectify military discipline, redeploy our troops, thoroughly investigate those who failed in their duties, and punish them according to military law."
"The Fang Clan and the Lian Clan may try to retake East Second City. We must be extremely vigilant during this period. If we hold on to East Second City, we will have no worries for the next five years."
The reason why they were able to capture the second eastern city so quickly was that Yue Xiangli had long intended to bring these two must-fight places into his sphere of influence and had been observing them for two years.
Taking advantage of this situation, we took over East Second City in advance.
"clear!"
Immediately afterwards, Hua Zhige and Yan Qiupei reported the casualties and the number of prisoners.
For the next ten days or so, Yue Xiangli stayed in the Third Division headquarters camp, overseeing the deployment of defenses and the dispatch of troops. He also repelled the attacks from the Fang and Lian factions one by one, until they gave up.
Yan Qiupei came over with a document, "Marshal, this is the new defense map."
Yue Xiangli took it and looked at it. "Has the improved training plan Shen Dingwei reported?"
"I've already reported it. We'll be training according to the new plan tomorrow."
"I'll be back tomorrow. You and Hua Zhige should keep a close eye on the situation to make sure no one takes advantage of it. Carry out a check once a month."
"clear."
Yan Qiupei continued to talk to him about other things, and finally said: "Two hours ago, the soldiers picked up a bloody person from the woods outside the city."
