"Uh!" The old man suddenly asked, Jiang Xingchen was stunned and immediately replied: "I said to avoid the other party's detours and divide his troops to defend!"

"It's not this, keep moving forward!" said the old man.

"More forward!" Jiang Xingchen blinked and said, "This result needs to be analyzed carefully and boldly..."

"Not right! What is the next sentence?"

"It seems..." Jiang Xingchen thought for a while and said, "You have to be very calm!"

"That's right! That's it!" The old man said, as if he had suddenly figured out something, and he patted Jiang Xingchen on the shoulder.

"This..." Jiang Xingchen was a little confused. He didn't understand military affairs at all, so he dared not make any suggestions. He just followed Tang Chuxue's analysis and then boasted about it. He just wanted to make exclamation and joke with the old man. He didn't expect the old man to have such a big reaction.

"What would happen if the matter of your internship in Nanjiang is not resolved and they are still dragging you down?" the old man asked at Jiang Xingchen, who was confused.

"Then you still need to ask? Either the marshal and the others continue to put pressure on the Marquis of Nanjiang, or the emperor takes action himself, so that the conservatives can't get the upper hand!" Jiang Xingchen said.

"In that case, will everyone's attention be focused on Lanyu City?" the old man asked again.

"Yeah!" Jiang Xingchen understood a little, frowned and said, "Old man, you mean that the matter in Lan Yucheng is not just about us fighting with the conservatives, but there are probably people from Xuanyuan Tianzong who are pushing hands!"

"This kid is so smart!" The old man praised secretly and nodded, "As soon as the internal struggles are together, it will attract everyone's attention, whether it is us or the conservatives... In that case, the eight kingdoms of Xuanyuan Tianzong launched a surprise attack, who can still remain calm..."

"Even that, we can defend it! Does the combat power of the Eight Kingdoms seem to be much the same as ours!"

"We can hold on! But if we miss the first move, we will be passive and will need a lot of manpower and material resources to compete with the other party. Don't forget. Now, when is the time for the autumn harvest in all places? Many reserve troops will help harvest wheat!" said the old man.

"Hiss!" Jiang Xingchen took a breath of air. Xuanyuan Tianzong's move was too cruel. It was actually to delay the empire's autumn harvest. Once the wheat rots into the ground, this winter...

"Boy! Speaking of which, you have made great contributions this time! If the matter in Lan Yucheng is not resolved, it will inevitably make Xuanyuan Tianzong take advantage of the loopholes, but now, it is estimated that the Marshal and the Emperor have also seen the problem.

Jiang Xingchen took a deep breath and looked at the old man with a strange look. He had always had an impression of the old man as a martial arts master. He never expected that this old man was so powerful.

"The ginger is still so spicy. It's not obvious. In contrast, I seem to be planning in Lanyu City, but it's really a bit of a pediatrician, and the luck is too great!"

When Jiang Xingchen sighed in his heart, the old man started to feel proud again: "Boy, learn a little, you are still young!"

"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen's muscles twitched suddenly. This old thing started to shine as soon as it was a little brighter.

However, Jiang Xingchen did not refute this time, and such a game is indeed not his strength.

"Old man, we have been talking for a long time and it has nothing to do with the First Legion! Xuanyuan Tianzong can no longer attack. What is the intention of the Tianyi Kingdom's move?" Jiang Xingchen asked.

The old man's face darkened and he said, "It's not easy to be troubled in front. This is a clear idea! Directly targeting the First Legion, there are head attacks and detours. If you are dispatched to reinforce troops, then the eight kingdoms will work together. Whoever has less troops in the seven legions will be unlucky. As long as they break through a little, it will be a big trouble... But if they don't reinforce, they will attack the First Legion with all their strength! I guess the army they detours will be extraordinary!"

"It's a dilemma whether to save it or not!" Jiang Xingchen sighed. This is just a conspiracy, just bullying you now, and there are not enough reserves.

"Boy, do you want to go to the First Legion with me? You have many ideas and may be able to help Chuxue girl!"

"No! I know nothing about war and can't help at all!" Jiang Xingchen shook his head and said.

The old man curled his lips and said, "Boy, it's not me who said to you! You have money and people now, so it's just a matter of credit. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you can help Chuxue girl win this battle..."

The old man said this and he was very moved. He had money and people now, but he only had titles and territory. As long as the territory can be upgraded to a small town, he can develop with peace of mind.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Xingchen shook his head and said, "I have to go back and see Mei'er!"

"The little girl is taking medicine now, and her condition will not worsen. Are you still short of the amount of medicine you have? Stop talking nonsense, follow me quickly!" The old man said, without giving Jiang Xingchen a chance to reply, he raised him up and ran quickly to the distance...

At the same time, another carriage drove out of Lanyu City. In the carriage, Mu Shaodong smiled and whispered: "So what if Jiang Xingchen solved the matter in Lanyu City? In the end, the empire will definitely be defeated!"

"Young Master! Elder Tong Wanshan is really amazing. He has predicted this situation long ago and left such a move!" The subordinate said from the side: "It's just that the losses are a little bigger. If the previous plan is successful, the goal can be achieved without any effort!"

Mu Shaodong nodded and said, "But that's good. They saw that we would definitely not mobilize other legions if we wanted to affect the autumn harvest. However, the first legion was defeated, which would be a disaster for them... Now they are in a dilemma, and the final result is that they can't save the autumn harvest!"

"This time, the young master must be the first to succeed. If you hadn't provoked Yuan Hao and sent out the news about Lan Yucheng in time, there would be no possibility of success in this plan!" The subordinate said with a complimentary smile.

Mu Shaodong nodded and said lightly: "It cannot be said too early before there is a result. We are taking risks. If the Orc Alliance attacks, we will suffer losses! They probably have guessed that the roundabout army is extraordinary!"

"So what can I do if I guess? They have no choice! The quick battle will be decided, and the Orc Alliance can react! We will definitely win this battle! The young master is sure to be promoted!" The subordinate smiled.

"Hey!" Mu Shaodong sighed softly: "No matter whether it is victorious or not, I have to leave this time! Otherwise, the empire will definitely find out afterwards that it was Yuan Hao who was provoked by me!"

"Young Master can't bear to let it go? Haven't you been thinking about returning to Xuanyuan Tianzong for a long time..."

"I'm thinking! The 600,000 I lost this time can't be retrieved, which is just a bit annoying."

“…”

Inside the Imperial Capital Army, a group of senior officers are studying the map around the First Legion’s garrison.

"It seems that the purpose of the Tianyi Kingdom detours from the mountainous areas is already very obvious! We must divide our troops to stop them!" An officer suddenly spoke.

"It is impossible to tell where the other party is detouring from on both sides. If you divide your troops to defend both sides, the pressure on the front of the First Legion will be too great!" An old man shook his head.

"It doesn't matter, transfer part of the Fourth Legion, which is closest to the First Legion!"

"Well! This is the quickest and simplest way..."

"No!" The middle-aged officer next to the marshal suddenly spoke, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"Xuanyuan Tianzong is looking forward to us mobilizing other legions. The other seven kingdoms must be preparing and ready to go! No matter which legion is mobilized, it will lead to insufficient troops... Now it is almost autumn harvest, and they must be here!"

"Hiss!" After hearing this inference, everyone felt a chill on their backs. Xuanyuan Tianzong's move was too ruthless, it really affected the autumn harvest, and it would be troublesome this winter.

"Marson Marshal, summoning the reserve troops will definitely affect the autumn harvest! But if you don't call, the Tianyi Kingdom will attack with all its might, and the First Legion is under too much pressure. You can't let them resist like this! The mountains are rugged and difficult to move around, and the other side's roundabout army is probably unusual!" Another person asked.

"Or...send the Imperial Guards?" said a weak voice in the corner.

"Swoosh!" A water cup in the marshal's hand flew over, and the shattering of the water cup sounded at the same time.

"Which soul has faded out of the bad idea? I will gather the Imperial Guards. I won't talk about whether I can do it or not, but whether I, the marshal, still want to do it!" The marshal was so angry that he glared at him.

In the corner, a young man covered his head with a mournful expression: "If it doesn't work, it won't work, why are you hitting someone..."

After a while, the old man who started to speak said, "If it doesn't work, I can only transfer the city guards from the surrounding areas first. Although the combat effectiveness is a little poor, it can also make up for it!"

"That's all!" The marshal nodded and shouted: "Tell the major legions to guard me strictly. Watch the other party's actions, no one can do it without any action... Just let her make the decision on her own, and hold on until the autumn harvest is over, no matter what," he said.

"Yes!" The person below responded and ran out to send a letter to the major legions...

One day later, the old man once again showed his superhuman speed and took Jiang Xingchen to the First Legion.

At this time, Tang Chuxue had received a letter from the marshal and had completely understood the other party's intentions. At the same time, she felt that the pressure increased greatly. She also realized that the other party's roundabout troops would be unusual. Now, only 10,000 city guards were drawn from two major territories.

However, when Tang Chuxue saw Jiang Xingchen coming, she felt that the pressure was much less. There was no problem that this kid could not solve. Such thoughts have now penetrated into her heart.

"Boy, look at this map, where do you think the other party will detour from?" The old man pulled Jiang Xingchen to the front of the map and asked.

"Don't I know! You old man is so powerful, why don't you give me some advice?" Jiang Xingchen complained inwardly. But he had to pretend to behave and couldn't tell Tang Chuxue that I don't know anything, just come to comfort you. In that case, he doesn't know if he will be killed by Tang Chuxue.

"It is not easy for them to detour in such a mountain, right?" Although Jiang Xingchen didn't understand, he also knew that detouring from the mountain was a huge cost for soldiers and horses. If it was a large army, it would be a thankless thing to include supplies.

"Boy, didn't I tell you that their roundabout army is absolutely average, and they are probably all warriors with higher strength!" said the old man.

"Oh!" Jiang Xingchen nodded and continued to patrol the map. After a moment, he said to the old man: "Take me to the mountains and take a look!"
