Chapter 376 Things are a mess.
"Keep chasing!"
Li An released the snow sculpture, but it did not fly in the direction in front of him, but instead flew away in the direction of Dongyi City. With the flying speed of the snow sculpture, it would take more than an hour to complete the military intelligence of the soldiers' marching speed within two days and return. "Charge forward, don't worry about whether there is a trick, but you can only attack for one day. When the time limit is reached, you must return regardless of the results of the battle."
This time, it is impossible to achieve full success.
Anyone who understands knows that this time Northern Qi is the defending party.
Attacking first a few days in advance is just attacking instead of defending, just to create a time difference.
"I will finally understand!"
The weather is clear and cool in autumn, and now is the time when autumn is in full swing. Li An knows that starting from this winter, the pace of life between countries may enter a fast pace.
He Daoren did not fight on the battlefield because he was not good at it.
His mission was ostensibly to protect the safety of the national teacher, but in reality it was to monitor the deployment of the prince. To put it nicely, it was to prevent the war from affecting them. These two thousand soldiers still needed to rest.
"I have read many classics, but if you ask me to speak out some profound truth, I cannot do it. Where is the such thing as a righteous war in this world? They are nothing but excuses."
He Daoren's words at this time seemed a little disrespectful, but these were his true thoughts.
Ang Lee doesn't care about what his subordinates think. Sometimes, people actually know what they are doing in their hearts, and what they need more is a word of affirmation from the outside world.
What’s funny is that many people don’t even give a little affirmation, but still demand that the other party understand them.
Now we have to wait for the news to come back. Since we have nothing else to do, Li An started talking: "It seems that your trip to Qing Kingdom when you were young had a great influence on you. Deep down in your heart, you actually agree with Fan Xian, right?"
"Fan Xian is from Nanqing." Taoist He shook his head.
"Sir, do you know how the people of Qing think?"
"Appreciate further details."
Ang Lee raised his hand, indicating that you were welcome to start your performance.
"Many people in Qing believe that their country is pointing its sword at the whole world in order to save the people from distress..." Taoist He's voice sounded very low.
"This is not contradictory," Li An said, "Hasn't Qing been invading other countries for so many years? Why can't I do the opposite now?"
This reminded Li Ang of a joke:
Someone complained to another person in a disgruntled tone: 'I beat up my neighbor.'
The other person was curious and asked, 'Why do you do this? '
'He scolded me!'
"Let me hear what he said to you."
'He told me exactly what I had done!'
Yes, the biggest rival of Qing State and also its neighbor is Northern Qi. To put it more plainly, it is the wise men on both sides or some conservative people who are analyzing the justice of the war.
But Ang Lee couldn't explain this question clearly, and he knew that few people in the world could explain it clearly.
He felt that there was something wrong with the logic of the people in this world, and perhaps this was also caused by the long-term invisible influence of the temple.
"Don't think too much, I'll give you a task!"
Li An pointed in the direction where Uesugi Tora left and said, "You can come back only after you kill a hundred people today." He Daoren left in silence.
The Black Cavalry, Red-Armored Knights, Yanjing Battalion and Border Troops of Qing State are considered to be the strongest troops.
Now that the border troops have been defeated, the Black Cavalry may arrive tomorrow with the troops from Dongyi City. The current situation still does not allow him to see any opportunity for Qing Kingdom to take advantage of.
But the hope of Qing Kingdom has never been in itself, but in Dongyi City!
Li An frowned deeply.
He kept calculating with his fingers, combining the information he learned from the original book with his calculations about Gong Dian, and muttered, "Has Gong Dian arrived in Dingzhou?"
Li An remained silent, but he underestimated Li Chengze's reaction speed and skills.
Perhaps he knew from the beginning what he would do first after returning to the Northern Qi border, and he also knew that the Qing border troops, lacking logistical support, could not withstand the attack. Now Gong Dian has resumed his original post and taken over the duties of Prince He after his departure. He has become the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards. Li Chengze directly transferred Gong Dian to Dingzhou to hold the fort.
Although Li Hongcheng had trained in Dingzhou for a period of time before, he was not from a military background and his foundation was still shallow. But if he had the cooperation of Gong Dian, considering Gong Dian's qualifications and prestige, this would be a great force.
You know, Gong Dian is an old man from the Dingzhou Army.
With such a force to guard against the Western Hu, if the Western Hu sent troops to Northern Qi, they would have no opponent. Perhaps they would even cooperate with the Western Hu to take down Northern Qi first and then talk about other things!
This is all the opponent's power that Li An knows.
"Tuoba Xiong, please don't let me down!"
When the Snow Eagle returned, it landed in front of him, causing the horse under him to fear. It raised its front hooves for a long time before dropping them to the ground and pacing.
The Snow Eagle is a product of the system, and can be said to be in tune with one's own thoughts.
I saw him randomly placing stones and branches on the ground, and he showed a rough picture of the situation in the direction of Dongyi City.
wrong!
This formation is actually composed entirely of cavalry?
These cavalrymen are all black cavalry!
Yes, Fan Xian, like himself, is a visitor from another era. How could he not know the story of Besieging Wei to Save Zhao?
With an arm broken and his physical strength nearly destroyed, is Fan Xian still fulfilling his role?
"Somebody come!"
With a loud shout, the messenger came running over and saluted, saying, "Grandmaster!"
"Quickly release the carrier pigeons and have the coastal areas be prepared to prevent the people from Dongyi City from coming by boat to launch a surprise attack! At the same time, order the troops from each state to be mobilized and advance towards Dongyi City!"
"Yes!"
It seems that if you want to take Nanqing, you must first destroy Dongyi City!
After making up his mind, he took out the meat from the system space, fed the Snow Eagle, and then released it again, heading towards Xihu.
Can those Hu people on the grassland go against the weather and launch this wave of offensive in this early winter season?
Perhaps, Master Ku He could bring me a surprise.
The hexagram shows that there is only death but no life, and I cannot see you off in person!
Li An returned to the camp and came to the tent where Li Chengzong's troops were stationed. Things were too complicated and Li An had no time to rest. He looked at Li Chengzong who was accompanied by the princess with some helplessness and asked, "Since you have just arrived in Daqi, would you like to take part in the war first?"
Li Chengzong was still a little hesitant and looked at him worriedly, thinking that Li An wanted him to deal with the people of Qing Kingdom.
The eldest princess smiled slightly, pulled Li Chengzong's sleeve, and said softly: "Of course I am willing. I guess the Imperial Master has made proper arrangements?"
Nodding, Li An did not deny it, but he would not be so ruthless as to let the remnants of the former imperial army, which had suffered heavy losses, set out on another expedition.
"Bring your guards with you. They are all good candidates for grassroots officers. Follow me to stop the people from Dongyi City. Perhaps, you can meet Fan Xian on this trip."
Li Chengzong nodded. The power struggle in Qing State had now been settled, but he had no grudges.
As for Fan Xian, he wanted to see him again!
