Heavenly Dao Formula

It is true to say so, but now that the Privy Council is planning to mobilize an army to encircle and suppress Jinxia City, Xia Fan can't spare to monitor the movements of the Heimen Sect.

According to the extremely simple map, the area they were heading to was a bit further south than Baiyao Mountain, and it was a foggy place that neither hunters nor medicine farmers would set foot in. The fate of walking over with two legs will definitely not be much better than these people. It is very common for half of them to die. The safest way is undoubtedly to let Chi and Olina fly over with people. But the mobility of these two people is equally important for the next defense battle, and it is impossible to easily transfer them away from the frontal battlefield.

"I'm a little concerned about another sentence." Xia Fan turned back to the previous pages, "The Pope... seems to think that King Yong has gone astray in the end? If he is a fanatical supporter of King Yong, he should not believe in it unconditionally." Everything that King Yong did?"

"Probably in the past hundred years, the Heimen Sect has also undergone some changes—after all, it is impossible to fill the stomach with pure faith, and they can continue to this day, presumably it is inseparable from these changes." Yan Qing pondered, "But In any case, we can probably confirm that the Black Gate Cult has something they want, and this thing is in a huge pit in the mountains."

At present, the most important information is this one.

As for the truth that King Yong saw and the way out that the world needs to find, these words are too vague, and it may be the deliberate beautification of the owner of the black book, which does not have the meaning of further study.

By the way, Xia Fan suddenly thought, since Qiongqi is very familiar with the situation in the mountains, would it be the same for Wulie?

He is an owl demon, theoretically his range of activities is wider than that of a tiger demon.

With this in mind, he immediately asked the guards to find Wu Lie.

Facing Xia Fan's question, Wu Lie seemed a little nervous, but when he saw Li on the side smiling and puffing up, he boldly replied, "I do explore places I haven't been to on weekdays, and I have crossed Baiyao Mountain range, go to the hinterland of the mountain... However, the peaks there are higher than the other, and the bottom is covered with clouds and mist, so I dare not go down to check. So... I didn't see the pit you mentioned."

It is probably because the high mountains block the airflow, which increases the temperature difference and makes the cloud pressure extremely low. Looking down from the mountain is the "sea of ​​clouds" - unless you penetrate it, it is difficult to overlook the scene at the foot of the mountain.

Xia Fan originally wanted to let Wu Liefei go to the mountains to investigate, but seeing his timid appearance, he finally gave up the idea.

The essence of a demon is also a human being. It is indeed a bit unhuman to go alone into the deep mountains and old forests to explore, and to face the possible existence of the Black Gate Sect and evil spirits.

At this time, the princess' messengers also brought new news, and there were signs of a large number of personnel activities on the Ganshen border.

...

In the main hall of the villa, the staff department has already hung the newly drawn map of Shenzhou on the main wall.

Thanks to the sound instrument, they finally don't have to move around with the army tents. Sitting in Fengyang Villa, they can have an overview of the whole situation and know everything that happened on the front line. This also makes the staff have more energy to toss about the strategy tools, such as sandboxes and large maps.

In the newly drawn map, not only roads and rivers are available, but also the concept of contour lines appears on it for the first time.

After coming to Jinxia for so long, it can be said that everyone's understanding of arithmetic has been raised to a higher level.

"This river is called Lichuan, and it is also the border between Ganshen and Shenyang. There are two narrowest places, namely Pingzhendu and Wangshandu." He Guicai pointed at the map with a long wooden whip, "These two ferries are small towns, and the number of people at most is four to five thousand at most, but just now, I received a report from the investigation team that a large number of people and horses appeared outside the town, at least more than 10,000 people. And the two Martial law has been imposed at the ferry crossings, and caravans are prohibited from passing through.”

"When I came back before, I went to Wangshandu." Li whispered in Xia Fan's ear.

"It seems that the Ganzhou army has the fastest response." Ning Wanjun's tone was very relaxed, obviously not deterred by the battle, "If I guess correctly, they should set up camp along the river next , set up a pontoon bridge, and erected a sentry tower on the Shenzhou side."

This is also the most common preparation before the war.

By stabilizing the two strategic channels, the enemy can continuously send troops to the front line. Although the movement in Liuzhou and Qingzhou is still unclear, it is difficult to stop this kind of camp building operation under the nose, even if Jin Xia notices it. In the eyes of the army, Li Chuan was regarded as a natural barrier. If Jin Xia couldn't effectively pursue him, no matter how hard he fought, it would only be a small victory. Maybe the opposing general wished that the princess would gather his men here, leaving Shenzhou empty of troops.

"I think so too." Staff Officer He cupped his hands, "The number and strength of the Ganzhou Army are limited, and it's okay to pave the way for others. It's not realistic to invade Shenzhou by yourself. Because of this, I suggest that Persimmon Be picky, while the other cities are still mobilizing troops, give Xilu a hard punch first, and use a big victory to boost the momentum of our army!"

"Tell me?" Ning Wanjun was obviously quite interested in this plan.

"To put it simply, there are two steps. One is to launch a siege when they set foot in Shenzhou to eliminate the enemies who cross the border; the other is to let the living dead freeze the river and chase down the defeated soldiers." Staff Officer He said succinctly, "Ganzhou is the closest city to the ferry. They are all a hundred miles away, and the towns and villages cannot be defended, so as long as we can charge up, we will surely win."

"Sounds good." Ning Wanjun raised the corner of her mouth, "If you can cross Lichuan quickly, you will definitely catch the Privy Council by surprise."

"I think this plan can go further." Xia Fan suddenly said.

"Oh?" Ning Wanjun's eyes immediately turned to him, "How do you say?"

"Broaden the scope of maneuver, so that the Ganzhou Army will not even have a chance to flee." He replied confidently.

...

Ganshen border, Wangshan crossing.

Lichuan shrinks inward here, and the narrowest point is less than 30 feet. Although the current has become a lot more turbulent, because the bottom of the river is very flat, there are neither hidden reefs nor pits, so it is still one of the most suitable crossing points. one.

Qi Duming was the commander of the South Route Army, with 5,000 troops under his command, and 10,000 conscripted auxiliary soldiers. He received the task of stabilizing the ferry and laying the floating bridge so that the follow-up troops could enter Shenzhou.

However, there is a higher-level command in this army in name, and that is Luo Aoying, the fourth rank of the Privy Council's Hundred Blades.

"I'm asking to see Commander Luo." Qi Duming came to the main tent and bowed his hands to the guards at the door.

Not long after the latter entered, he heard a hoarse voice from the account, "General Qi, please come in."

Qi Duming stepped into the account and couldn't help shivering.

The temperature inside seemed to be several percent lower than outside, and the air seemed to be filled with thick water vapor.

"I'm sorry," Luo Aoying sat on the soft bed, without the slightest intention of getting up, "I was just meditating on sensing Qi, which would unconsciously affect the changes in the surrounding Qi. I don't know why General Qi came to me?"
