C1573 North Plan

Ordinary generals could be said to have ascended to become famous generals, but it wasn't difficult to say if it was easy to do so. Ordinary generals could be said to have ascended to become famous generals, but it wasn't difficult to say if it was easy to do.

With a poof, inspiration would pierce through that layer of window paper and spurt out. From then on, he had his own style of command, not a textbook.

The Dragon Lord was forced to break through by Xiao Letian, he used his martial arts to comprehend the Dao of military education, he combined the thousands of troops and horses to form his own body.

A martial artist was adept at channeling the strength of every muscle in his body, and when faced with an enemy's attack, they would use corresponding moves.

When the martial arts were integrated with the military, the army would become an extension of the Dragon Lord. He could keenly sense all the changes in the battlefield, and judge the intentions of the enemies by the pressure on each army.

What is a feint? Where was he defending? How was it weak? What was naming again!?

The exchanges between martial arts masters happened in a split-second. The opponent wouldn't attack after waiting for half a day. In reality, winning or losing was only a split-second.

As a renowned tyrant of the Northern Lands, the Dragon Lord certainly had a lot of experience. When fighting, he would use his intuition and not his brain to think.

There was only this much difference between a genius and a mediocre talent.

Now that he had achieved a breakthrough in his military studies, he was able to comprehend the profoundness of the changes in the war and was able to make the most accurate judgement as soon as possible.

"The First Division is shrinking. Another regiment should be left in the Suifen River defense line. The rest should be heading towards the northern border …"

"Strengthen the original northern trenches. Be careful of enemy sneak attacks, and let the Third Division and Fourth Regiment go up …"

"The navy has entered the Wusuli Gulf. Our defense here is the weakest. We need the support of the naval gun … The engineers had to follow them and set up defenses to the east within five hours. The Haishenwai defense lines must close before nightfall. "

As orders were passed down one by one, all the officers present could feel the confidence and confidence of the commanding officer. The morale of the headquarters rose higher and higher.

Xiao Letian looked at the map, and compared to the previous arrangement of the Dragon Lord, he secretly praised himself in his heart. In the face of such a situation, he made the right decision.

Right now, the entire picture of the battle on the Haishenwai was like that of Italy on a map of Europe. A peninsula extended to the sea, and the three sides of the sea around it had already been controlled by the Chinese Navy.

The greatest threat lay in the north, where the land to the west, north, and east was a flat hilly area where the cavalry could move freely.

Right now, the Suifen River's ice cover on the west side had already been destroyed by more than a thousand meters, it was impossible for the cavalry army to assault it on a large scale.

The north side was a big problem, and it required a lot of troops to build a long line. However, there was one advantage of being in the north side was that it had a trenches that were built over the course of a winter. The trenches here were wide and deep, to the point that even the field gun could push them.

In addition, all sorts of fortifications built from logs, sand, and other soil could form a crossfire that could kill and injure the cavalrymen. What was even worse was that this was a parallel trench area. In the middle of the trenches of the three main stations, there was also a communication trench, which helped to form a very hard line of defense for the castle.

If the Cossack wanted to attack from here, the only way was to dismount and become an infantry soldier.

The west and north lines were relatively safe, but the only worrying thing was the east side. The cavalry speed was quickly so that a portion of the vanguard unit s in the north started to circle around, it was obvious that Guo Geli and Fu Mannuofu were looking for the east side to break through.

However, there was one good thing about the eastern front line was that it was close to the Wu Su Li Bay. The navy could use naval gun s to bombard the land near the shallow sea area, and especially when the Zhiyuan Warship s 210 main cannons were firing, it would definitely leave an unforgettable impression on these Cossack.

The First and Second Regiments were both the most elite of the veterans, and if they were to be mobilized and all the field gun were to be concentrated, it was possible that they could withstand the Cossack cavalry's attacks.

After arranging everything, the Dragon Lord walked to the side of the Prime Minister and said, "Six hours from now, the engineers will be able to build simple fortifications at the eastern front. The Haishenwai will have no problem guarding it! "Have the rear guard dispatch the merchant ships as soon as possible. We'll take advantage of the night to secretly transport the soldiers, heading north …"

"Up north? Do you believe that Sister Wu can accomplish this? Do you think she will succeed? " Xiao Letian asked in reply, "If Sister Wu fails, you can transfer your elites to the entrance of Amur River, which is four hundred kilometers to the north. At that time, thirty thousand Cossack will come from the west. You really won't have time to go back to defense! "

Dragon Lord muttered to himself for a moment before resolutely saying, "Sister Wu is eloquent, and good at making decisions. I believe that she will help Hun Chun settle this big matter! In addition to that, they also have His Majesty's secret decree in their hands, which increases their chances of winning by several fold, so I believe in her! "

"More importantly …" Dragon Lord shook his head and sighed, "For the entire winter, I never trusted her, and now I want to trust her once!"

Xiao Letian's eyes lit up as he nodded, "Alright! You are the commander, so everything is up to you. I am here to support you, so I will listen to you! "

"However, I must remind you that you must secretly deploy your troops and not let the remaining ten thousand or so Cossack s outside the city find out! Otherwise, once they leave the Haishenwai and use their power to burn, loot, and even attack your back from the north, you will be in deep trouble! "

"That's right!" Therefore, I need the Prime Minister to prepare a merchant ship for me. I plan to take fifteen thousand of my elites with me, and leave the rest to guard the Haishenwai. Afterwards, I will use the merchant ships to transport the commandos from the north to the south, creating the illusion of forty thousand troops … "

"As long as our defense line is strong, I think we can still deceive the enemy!" Dragon Lord racked his brains to calculate the military strength of the person in his hands. This was already the most perfect plan that he could think of.

Xiao Letian frowned, "No, using commoners as soldiers is too much of a risk, do you think those Cossack s are fools? "During a war, the enemy's strength could be detected with just a slight contact …"

"As long as they find out that something is amiss, they will immediately guess our intentions. At that time, they will definitely abandon the Haishenwai and head north!" Xiao Letian pinched his chin and muttered, "Where do I find twenty thousand soldiers that have undergone military training? "It's fine even if I just received a little military training …"

The two of them were deep in thought for an entire 10 minutes without saying anything, just at this time, Cai Bixia's figure suddenly walked in from outside. The woman in between had a weird expression on her face and whispered into Xiao Letian's ear.

"What?" There was actually such a thing! "Quick, take me to see it …" After saying that, he turned around and walked away as though he was flying!
