Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 267

  Chapter 267 Leading the War

  The huge army moved south one after another, leaving thick ruts and animal hoof prints on the hard frozen ground.

  Before leaving, Li Qingyan called his generals to hold a military meeting against the barbarians.

  Although it has been said a lot, it can actually be simplified into three words.

   Discover, overtake, destroy.

   And the most critical of these is the first discovery.

  Just like the champion Hou in the history of the previous life, the difficulty is not to win the war, but to discover the main force of the barbarians.

  Although the barbarian army has been winning battles under the leadership of the different king, its military strength has been much weaker than when it detoured to the north to seal the city to the south.

  Li Qingyan went out of the city to attack the camp and killed a group, stormed Beifeng City and killed a group, and defeated the 300,000 sect army and killed a large number.

  In Xu Yuan's words, although the barbarians are full of momentum, in fact, more than half of the manpower yellow bars have been consumed.

  Insufficient manpower led to the fact that the barbarians had to win battles all the time, and only by winning big could they complete the eternal feat of ants devouring elephants. The Yan Dynasty with a rich family could lose, but as long as they were allowed to win once, the barbarians would be lost forever.

   This is probably the sorrow of the barbarian king, or the entire barbarian.

  The days of leaving the camp and going south were very busy, but for Xu Yuan, it was quite boring.

   It's still the same reason, he is a non-staff idler who is a layman, and he is not worthy of participating in the military.

   But Li Qingyan became so busy that he didn't have time to sleep with him.

   A brand new day,

  When Xu Yuan woke up from his sleep, he immediately saw Li Qingyan who was sitting at the opposite table and watching the military situation.

   Guessing that this woman stayed up all night.

  After the war machine began to operate at a high load, many affairs required Li Qingyan, the commander-in-chief, to look over and make decisions.

  A good general is not just responsible for leading troops to fight.

   Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of marching speeds, marching routes, communication with friendly forces, ordnance wear and tear, and supplies to the grassroots all need to be reviewed by her.

   Sitting up from the soft couch, rubbing the center of his brows, Xu Yuan pulled the curtain of the car window and looked outside.

  The carriage was remodeled from a military truck, with a large interior space, larger than the two RVs in Xu Yuan's previous family.

  Besides the beast chariot, all he could see was the Beifeng army in white armor.

More than a hundred Beifeng guards riding tall monster horses guarded the beast cart where the commander was. Their armor was shiny with metal, and the sound of armor rubbing between the heavy armored soldiers could be heard with inexplicable blood. From time to time, there was a low moan, leaving thick ruts on the ground.

  Everything is going on in an orderly manner on the way to the south.

  However, compared to the bright sun at the time of departure, the clouds above the sky at this moment have gathered again, as if the essence of them will fall to the world at any time.

   Withdrawing his gaze, Xu Yuan looked at the woman in red armor in the carriage:

   "Where are we now?"

  Li Qingyan replied softly without raising his eyes:

   "It's about a hundred miles away from Beifeng City."

   "Where are the barbarians?" Xu Yuan asked the question he was most concerned about.

  Li Qingyan's Beifeng army is considered the vanguard of the coalition army, and if encounters occur, it must be their vanguard army that first comes into contact with the barbarians.

  Li Qingyan shook his head lightly:

   "No, I have arranged for flying scouts to cooperate with the Zongmen's heavy cavalry to go to Beifeng City to investigate, but the barbarian king seems to have given up Beifeng City directly."

  Xu Yuan chuckled when he heard the words:

   "How can the Beifeng City, whose northern city wall has collapsed, be able to hold it?"

  Li Qingyan finally raised his eyes when he heard the words, with a smile on his lips:

   "You thought about it when you were going to blow up the city wall, right?"

  Xu Yuan got up and walked across to the simple table in the car, took out a futon and sat down:

   "No, I simply want to use the barbarian's knife to chop off the 300,000 elite of the northern sect, and even if the northern city wall is still built, the barbarian will not stick to the northern seal."

  Li Qingyan gently put down the file in his hand, smiled lightly and said:

"Yes, if there is no cloud energy bomb, the barbarians may take advantage of the timing of the blizzard to defend Beifeng. After all, they can attack the reinforcements outside the city at any time, but with cloud energy bombs, the barbarians will stick to Beifeng. die."

   Halfway through speaking, Li Qingyan suddenly changed the subject and sighed softly:

   "However, the barbarian king guessed that we didn't have many Yun-Qi bombs, so he retreated into our Dayan territory, hoping to wait until we exhausted all the Yun-Qi bombs."

   A very simple inference,

  If Dayan Yun Qi bombs were sufficient, he would definitely not be as cautious as this one, just bounce Yun Qi all the way to open the way, and just run southward.

  Thinking to this point,

  Xu Yuan didn't say a word, just picked up the report that Li Qingyan put down and glanced at it.

   It recorded some non-combat attrition last night, in short, it was the defeat of the sect and the fights between them.

   After pondering for a while, Xu Yuan frowned and asked:

   "The sect is dishonest?"

  Li Qingyan replied indifferently:

"It happened last night when the food was handed over. They felt that there was too little food, and those frontier soldiers knew that they had become cannon fodder. It is normal to have some conflicts under such emotions. But these are not important, as long as the food is in hand Here, the generals of the Zongmen will find a way to solve it themselves."

  Xu Yuan smiled dumbly:

   "That's right. They don't know that their mountain gate is about to disappear, and they are still a family in the face. If they choose to rebel, it will give the court a reason to move them."

   paused,

  Xu Yuan turned and asked again:

   "But now we can't catch the main force of the barbarians, what are we going to do?"

  Li Qingyan pursed his lips and smiled, and turned his eyes sideways:

   "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

  Xu Yuan pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled:

   "A lie."

  Li Qingyan snorted, and tapped the table with his slender and delicate fingertips:

   "Block the pass of Beifeng City, send high-level cultivators and flying scouts to explore the mountains to prevent them from detouring back to the snow field, and at the same time arrange Zongmen heavy cavalry to look for them in the territory, which will trap the barbarians to death in Dayan."

  Xu Yuan thought for a while after hearing the words:

"Now the northern border is frozen by blizzards. Except for the cities in the northern border and the castles built by some landlords and gentry outside the city, the people in the towns outside have either froze to death or have fled. They are naturally strong and clear, and they are barbarians. If you dare to attack the city for food, you just exposed your position."

  Li Qingyan stared at her and said with a smile:

   "You are right, son-in-law, but unfortunately it is a lie."

   "." Xu Yuan.

   "Does the son-in-law want to know what the truth is?"

   "I don't want to." Xu Yuan had a bad feeling, so don't start.

  Li Qingyan raised his hand and used Yuan Qi to break Xu Yuan's head back:

   "I think you do."

   Sighed, Xu Yuan looked at her bright eyes and asked:

"Why?"

   "The scouts sent to the vicinity of Beifeng City reported that the corpses of the frontier soldiers of the Zongmen, the corpses of the barbarians, and even the three ice beast giant statues are only half of their bodies."

   As he spoke, Li Qingyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "My son-in-law, how long do you think the barbarians can survive on these "food and grass"?"

  Xu Yuan's eyes twitched, and he was silent for a while:

   "It seems that the barbarian king has been transporting "food" during the gap period of these few days."

  Li Qingyan took a deep breath, and then exhaled, her tight chest did not rise or fall:

"That barbarian king is really smart. At the end of the war, he was ready to use the "grain" he robbed to spend with us here. There is such an army hiding in my Dayan territory. We don't dare to transport grain northward on a large scale at all, we can only rely on Xu Mijie for supplies, we can't afford it.”

  Speaking of this, Li Qingyan clenched his fists slightly:

   "Furthermore, Father and the others also need the Beifeng Army and the Black Scale Army to participate in the extermination of the northern sects. The longer the delay, the greater the risk of exposure."

The high-level cultivators inside the mountain gate are not like ordinary people, they may escape no matter how closely guarded they are, and once even one person escapes during the secret massacre of the sect, the sects in the entire northern border will be freed in a short period of time. This news.

   Only when the Beifeng Army and the Black Scale Army are involved can it be foolproof.

   After a little silence, Xu Yuan suddenly asked:

   "The barbarian army is so huge, it is impossible to disappear without a sound. Can you track it?"

  Li Qingyan said helplessly:

   "The wind and snow directly covered all their tracks, and it was not easy to track them with a time difference of nearly ten days."

  Xu Yuan was quiet for a long time, and said in a low voice:

   "So you want to go deep alone? Use yourself as bait to lure the barbarian army to encircle and suppress you?"

"yes."

   "But what if the barbarians return to the northern snowfield along the mountain road when they came?"

   "Mr. Zong has issued a death order to let the high-ranking powerhouses accompanying the army each be responsible for a high-intensity patrol in an area between the Wanren Mountains and the Tianxue Mountains, and not to give the barbarians any chance to detour north."

   "." Xu Yuan.

  The lives of high-level cultivators are very expensive. Under normal circumstances, they will not do high-risk work such as patrols, because once they are discovered by the main force of the barbarian army, a totem can make them return to the west.

   But at the same time, as long as something happens to them in the patrol area, it can be determined that there are barbarian troops in that area.

   It seems that Zong Qingsheng and Li Qingyan have already made up their minds to make a quick decision.

  Li Qingyan stood up vigorously, glanced back at the silent Xu Yuan, and said:

"At present, the only chance for that barbarian king to turn defeat into victory is to divide and encircle with more attacks and fewer. As long as I can hold back the main force of the barbarians and detonate the cloud energy bomb, and let Mr. Zong come to help, the battle in the northern border can be settled in the shortest possible time. .”

   Half a day later,

  As the vanguard, the Beifeng Army arrived at Beifeng City first and began to rectify.

   One day later,

  The Black Scale Army led by Zong Qingsheng arrived at Beifeng City.

  After the two armies handed over the necessary supplies and ordnance, Li Qingyan led the Beifeng Army of the two towns and Luo Qingfeng's 20,000 frontier army, directly braved the wind and snow across Beifeng City and continued southward, tracking the barbarian army.

   One thing to say,

  Xu Yuan is not in favor of this kind of risky behavior, especially this risk may risk his own life.

  But it is a pity that others speak lightly and do not count.

  Even if he was surrounded by armored armored guards and even with a crazy woman like Li Qingyan next to him, Xu Yuan still felt very insecure when marching in the blizzard.

   Fortunately, Zong Qingsheng was very generous and directly assigned most of the scouts of the Blackscale Army to Li Qingyan's command.

  Hundreds of well-trained scouts cruised in front of the army, sending back information continuously, providing early warning for the Chinese army.

  As Li Qingyan's bodyguard and son-in-law, Xu Yuan can read these military reports even when he is bored.

  The information that can be reported to Li Qingyan is basically the important information that has been screened by the deputy general below.

   Well, relatively important.

   On the first day, there was no military situation, but due to the blizzard and natural disasters, two scouts were injured in non-combat.

   On the second day, two villages destroyed by the snowstorm were found in the southwest and southeast of the army, and the frozen corpses of the people inside were untouched.

On the third day, a small number of flying scouts encountered the barbarian bone-winged birds, losing seven of them, and the ground scouts were ambushed by barbarian wolves in a canyon. Nine people died and thirteen were missing. The army turned towards the unusual canyon. chase after.

   On the fourth day, the fighting between the scouts of the two armies became more frequent, and there were more than a hundred reports of casualties in one day.

   On the fifth day, news came from the scouts that there were only a small number of injured barbarians in the canyon, and they were all wiped out by the Grand Master accompanying the army.

   On the sixth day, the army entered Ningyuan County and forced the local gentry to donate food for supplies.

   On the thirteenth day, the barbarians harassed on a small scale, and the frontier army of the Zongmen lost 137 people, and 14 people were lost in non-combat.

   On the fourteenth day, the barbarians harassed on a small scale. Thirty-six people were lost from the Zongmen frontier army, and 17 people were lost from the Northern Feng army.

   Day 16

"Snapped!"

  Xu Yuan casually threw the dossier in his hand on the table in the beast car, sat back on the soft couch, and sighed long:

   "No, when did this guerrilla warfare end?"

This barbarian king is really as oily as a loach. The Beifeng army has been going around in the extreme north of Tianshui Island for almost a month, but they have not been able to catch them. On the contrary, the whole army was harassed by the barbarians. And exhausted.

   It belongs to the understanding of guerrilla warfare.

  Li Qingyan got up, walked to Xu Yuan and sat down, the soft couch sank slightly, and said in a warm voice:

"My son-in-law, there are nine out of ten unsatisfactory people in life. Isn't that what you said? It's impossible for that barbarian king to go all-in on the attack. After all, war is not a child's play. If he loses one bet, the entire barbarian tribe will be doomed forever. "

  Xu Yuan lay on the soft couch with his hands behind his head, crossed his legs and stared at the ceiling of the carriage, and suddenly said:

   "Hey, how about we put some pressure on that barbarian king?"

   "Stress?" Li Qingyan raised his eyebrows.

  Xu Yuan looked at her glamorous profile, and said in a low voice:

   "Tell him directly that your Uncle Namu went to the extremely dark place to copy their hometown."

   "." Li Qingyan was slightly taken aback.

  Xu Yuan looked back with strange eyes:

   "Why, this information cannot be told to the barbarian king?"

   "No, of course."

  Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes flickered for a moment, and she smiled sweetly: "Such a bad move, why didn't you say it earlier, son-in-law?"

  Xu Yuan sat up slowly, and said in a low voice:

   "It will take time for Dali Mountain to reach the extremely dark place. If the barbarians also have the means of long-distance communication, they may startle the snake. Wu Chenghou has probably arrived for a while now."

  Li Qingyan's eyes flickered for a moment:

   "The ideal of the barbarian king in his life is to obtain a place for his people to survive, but now if he learns that their women and children have been slaughtered."

   As he spoke, Li Qingyan narrowed his eyes into two crystal crescents, full of excitement:

   "It would be fun to think about."
