Chapter 179 Information
The early morning mist shrouded the entire capital. At the north gate, a man dressed as a merchant rode a fast horse, rushed out of the gate and galloped away to the west. This man was the one who was ordered to lurk in the capital back then.
, Lu Shaobao, staff general of the Military Aircraft Department of the Yuwen Army.
Lu Shaobao was arranged by Yuwen Haotian. After settling in the capital, Lu Shaobao established a secret intelligence station to collect various intelligence on the Dafeng Dynasty for Yuwen's army. He was also responsible for transmitting intelligence between King Yuwen and General Duan Fei. He
I just received a piece of information from General Duan Fei and asked him to report it in person to Marshal Yuwen Haotian of the Restoration Army immediately.
After General Yuwen returned to the Western Regions from the Anning Valley, he immediately sent 100,000 of his troops to the seven northwest cities where Zhao Jian was stationed, forming a confrontation with the Tufan army in the northern area west of the Nu River. Now Yuwen's army has occupied the north.
Xingjing County and seven counties west of the Nujiang River are connected together. Although the area is not large, it divides the Tufan army that invaded the Central Plains into two parts. The strategic location is very important. So now both sides are moving towards this area.
The reinforcement of troops in the area, especially the German support, is determined to regain control of the area.
At this time, Marshal Yuwen Haotian received the information from General Duan Fei at Xiamaguan. It was a secret recipe and a letter. General Duan detailed the method of cracking Tufan's giant formation in the letter and reported it.
It tells the details and results of the victory over Tufan in Jingchun Kingdom. The secret recipe is the method of preparing a potion that produces thick smoke to suppress the enemy.
General Duan mentioned in his letter that the imperial court currently asked him to command an army of 200,000 to station in Fengding County to prevent the Tufan army from invading Jingchun Kingdom again.
He also said in the letter that during the battle of Jingchun, more than 40 giant warriors from Tufan were captured, and these people had returned to Fengding County with his troops. These giants have now benefited from Tufan's poison.
After being freed, they have lost their combat effectiveness, but they no longer obey anyone's command. Since no one in the army knows their language, they cannot communicate with them.
In order to control them, they now have to lock them up with huge iron chains and feed them every day. The imperial court now wants to use these people to fight for our army, and sent special personnel to try to tame these giants, but repeated attempts failed.
, completely uncontrollable, and now the imperial court wants to kill all these giants to prevent them from being used by the Tufan in the future.
General Duan stated that he was looking for a way to control the giants and temporarily held back the imperial envoy from killing these giants. In his letter, he implored King Yuwen to give him a way to deal with these giants.
Yuwen Haotian was very happy after receiving General Duan's letter. General Duan Fei's victory in the battle of Jingchun showed that the magic weapon that Tufan relied on to defeat the enemy had failed, and the combat effectiveness of Tufan's army would be greatly weakened. Also, General Duan
Now 200,000 troops are stationed on the northeastern border, which is a huge threat and constraint to Tufan. Deyong does not dare to easily send heavy troops to seize the northwest cities. Now is a good opportunity to raise troops for the Northern Expedition again. If the court can
Realizing this, he took the opportunity to send troops to counterattack Tufan, which would surely drive Tufan out of the Central Plains.
What worries Yuwen Haotian is that Tufan still has a strategic advantage that he can rely on, and that is the iron ore and arsenal in northern Shanxi County. According to the information he has, Tufan has searched for Han craftsmen everywhere, and currently his iron ore arsenal is
Eighty percent of productivity has been restored, which has greatly improved Tufan's combat capabilities. If this situation is not stopped in time, the consequences will be very detrimental.
However, the current strength of the Restoration Army alone cannot pose a threat to the northern Shanxi County where Tufan is heavily stationed. Moreover, the two places are too far apart and beyond reach. How to capture the northern Shanxi County has become a major problem facing Marshal Yuwen.
problem.
Now if we want to capture the county seat in northern Shanxi, we can only rely on the Dafeng army stationed on the northeastern border, that is, General Duan Fei's army.
Yuwen Haotian suddenly came up with a plan. He thought that if the Fuguo Army launched another Northern Expedition west of the Nujiang River, Tufan would definitely send heavy troops to deal with it. By then, Tufan's troops in the northeast would definitely be mobilized to deal with the Fuguo Army. If
If the general can lead Dafeng's army to make a surprise attack during this period, he will definitely be able to capture the county seat in northern Shanxi.
After thinking maturely, Yuwen Haotian immediately wrote back to General Duan, detailing his battle plan in the letter, asking General Duan to strive for the imperial court to send troops to counterattack Tufan. If the imperial court could not agree, then look for an opportunity to directly send troops to come.
He must attack Northern Shanxi County first and then report later. As long as he can recapture Northern Shanxi County, it will be just around the corner to completely drive the Tufans out of the Central Plains.
In addition, regarding how to deal with the captured giant warriors, Marshal Yuwen asked General Duan to wait for a few days, and he would send someone over to help him deal with it.
Yuwen Haotian asked Lu Shaobao to return immediately to reply to General Duan Fei. At the same time, he sent people to Jinyang County immediately to ask Wu Kui, Lan Meier, brother and sister Pu Tong and Ta Mi who were stationed there with Zhao Jian.
Set off immediately to Fengding County to help General Duan solve the problem of giant warriors.
After receiving the mission, siblings Pu Tong and Tami were very happy. They hoped to find their lost parents among the giant captives in Fengding County. Thinking that the family was about to be reunited, the two siblings were so happy that they could not sleep.
Brother Wu Kui and Lan Meier were also very happy for them. Regardless of whether their parents could be found among the giant captives, among so many giants, at least someone should know the news about their parents.
Besides, these two siblings know very well how the Tufan captured and used the giants to work for them. After they go there, they can explain the situation clearly to the giants, and I believe they will definitely be able to convince these giants, and maybe they can.
Let these giants help us do something.
After the four people packed their bags, they set off towards Fengding County in the northeast that day. In order to not attract attention along the way, General Zhao Jian specially arranged two large carriages and pulled the four people on the road, non-stop all the way.
Fengding County rushed there.
