Chapter 364

Shen Zhang was relieved to hear Lu que say so. It is not difficult to block all the animal tides in Zhennan pass and the main force of animal tides in Zhennan pass. Because this involves the mobilization of many troops, under the premise that the land shortage does not allow the separation of the heavy riding of the thunder, it is difficult to block all the animal tides with the light riding troops of the thunder army and the left and right Zhuo guards.

But if it's just the main force of the animal tide, Shen Zhang is very confident. The mountains on both sides of zhennanguan are very steep. Even if there are herds of animals that can cross the mountains, it's only a small part. In addition, as long as there are not too many flying raptors in the animal tide, Shen Zhang is at least six or seven percent sure that he can block the main force of the animal tide to the south of zhennanguan.

"Since you have said that, I can assure you that zhennanguan will not fall before you attack the animal tide." Shen Zhang made a serious promise. This matter concerns the life and death of Da Qian's hundreds of millions of people, as well as the future national destiny of Da Qian. If he makes such a promise now, he will do it, even if he will spare his own life and spend 300000 thunder troops.

"Thank you, uncle Shen." Lu que Wenyan solemnly salutes Shen Zhang, not because he is his elder, but for the sake of making the world prosperous. No one knows more than him how much pressure Shen Zhang has to bear to make such a promise. You know, it's a frightening tide of Jedi beasts. The once glorious Dayan and the most prosperous Yin were all destroyed by the tide of beasts.

"Lu que, what's in your mind?" Shen Zhang gave up half of his body, and then helped Lu que up with his hands. Today is different from the past. Even last year, Lu que, the son of Wei, was able to accept the salute. But now Lu Que's official position is above him, and he has the right to control Southern Xinjiang. He is his direct superior. Even if he is Lu Que's elder, he can only accept half of the salute.

Lu qiaowen sighed and said, "now we have to try our best to arrange it, because we don't know the scale of the animal tide, which direction the animal tide will rush out of xiyuanze, and which direction the animal tide will rush to. We can only prepare according to the fact that the animal tide will attack Daqian directly to the north. "

"Since you say so, you have at least six or seven points in mind, don't you?" Although Shen Zhang didn't have much contact with Lu que, he could see not only one's ability and talent, but also one's vision and temperament from one's layout and use of troops. In the most half year's battle in southern Xinjiang, with Lu Que in charge of the overall situation, Da Qian won the second County of Hebei in the south at a very small price, and now Tianxing has the whole territory except the capital.

This kind of ability, even Shen Zhang is such a great commander, but also have to say a word of service. Although Lu Qiaokou is not sure, he must think that the tide of beasts will attack Daqian northward after rushing out of xiyuanze. Otherwise, he would not transfer so many heavy weapons, and build Longpan and Huju into a war fortress to hold any enemy going north.

"Uncle Shen, come with me." Lu que did not answer Shen Zhang's words, but pulled Shen Zhang to the wall of the stone city on the top of the mountain.

"Look, uncle Shen." Lu que stood on the wall, pointed to the foot of the mountain and said, "the mountain road between the two mountains is like two gourds. It is narrow in the south, wide in the middle and narrow again in the north. The terrain is very dangerous. It's not unreasonable for the crazy lion warlord to set up Danshui defense line here. "

"But at that time, the tide of Jedi beasts, if the tide of beasts was dominated by other beasts or fierce beasts, it would be difficult for such terrain to stop the tide of beasts." Shen Zhang looked at the canyon at the foot of the mountain and said with a frown.

He guarded the southern territory and set up the benlei army commander specially to deal with the Xiyuan beast tide. He knew this place very well, and it was not the first time that he had been here. Although the canyon was steep, it was not very large. According to the average scale of the Jedi beast tide recorded in ancient books, it could not hold one fifth of it, and could not be successfully gathered and annihilated in the first World War, Then this kind of terrain will not play much role.

Lu Que's eyes flashed a trace of brilliance. Looking at the beautiful mountains and rivers that are still green now, he said to Shen Zhang, "Uncle Shen, I never thought that the North Bank of Danshui would become the first line of defense against the tide of animals. I would hide the stone city above the two mountains by means of methods, and then set the ground nail fire oil in the valley, but this can't stop the tide of animals from passing through here. But after the animal tide passes through, I can determine the scale of the animal tide. At that time, I will transfer the two armies of gale and Huxiao from the south, and then the three armies will encircle the animal tide under zhennanguan. "

"You asked me to hold on for half a month to a month, just in order to leave time for Huxiao and Fengfeng to go north after the passing of the animal tide?" Shen Zhang immediately understood Lu Que's plan and asked.

Lu Shao nodded and said, "yes, if we can't get the main force of the animal tide over here, it's too dangerous to transfer the two armies of fast wind and tiger roar here, and I can't transfer them now. On the one hand, they have to continue to suppress Nanli at this time, on the other hand, they can't hold nearly 500000 troops of Changqing, fast wind and tiger roar here. What's more, the way I know is to conceal the breath of 200000 troops. It's impossible for the herd to feel the military spirit formed by the gathering of 500000 troops. "

What Lu said was only the first set of plans in his mind, but he felt that this situation was the most likely to happen. Because he always believed that as long as Tianxing's national destiny collapsed completely and the animal tide outside xiyuanze was blocked, the first goal of animal tide out of xiyuanze must be Daqian, which is located in the north with strong national destiny.

"As long as you have confidence in your heart, you are the commander-in-chief in this battle, and we all follow your military orders." Shen Zhang nodded, looked at the giant crossbows and thunderbolt carts that were constantly placed on the city wall, and asked, "then why do you place so many military heavy weapons here?"

"In order to completely block the retreat of Xiyuan beast tide." Lu que looked to the north and said, "when you return to zhennanguan, uncle Shen, the garrison of zhennanguan will reach 300000. With the 500000 troops of Changqing, Fengfeng and Huxiao, as long as it is not the scale of the animal tide that destroyed Dayan, it will be enough to compete with it. In this battle, we will have a tough fight with the tide of beasts. But after that, if we can win, we can no longer fight with the tide of beasts. Instead, when we have the victory, we will drive them south and weaken them a little bit. "

He raised his hand to point down the mountain and continued, "this is the final battlefield I chose, and the two mountain canyons below are the bone burial places of the herd. These large military equipment were prepared for that time."

"I see." Shen Zhang nodded his head. Although Lu did not elaborate, Shen Zhang also understood Lu's plan.

"Uncle Shen, the most important thing in this battle is that zhennanguan must hold fast to the arrival of the two armies: the strong wind and the roaring tiger. As long as zhennanguan can hold on to that time, plus my previous arrangement, we have won half of the battle." Lu said confidently.

In the past six months, Lu has been in a high position. Although Lu's nature has not changed, he is more calm and calm. This style of strategizing and guiding made Shen Zhang's heart beat.

"Lu que, don't worry. Since I have guaranteed that there will be no problems in the front line of zhennanguan, I will certainly persist until the day when you go north together. But what worries me most is not your layout, but something beyond it. " Shen Zhang said with some worry.

"Oh? What is uncle Shen worried about? " Lu que asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Shen Zhang took a strange look at Lu Que and said, "in the past history, the most frightening thing about animal tide is not the endless herd. No matter how many of them are eroded by the red earth karma, they can find a way to deal with it. I'm worried about the strange animals, fierce animals and spirit animals that rush out of xiyuanze with the tide of animals. "

"Uncle Shen, don't worry, the Imperial City worship is already in zhennanguan at this time, and the elders of Jiuyao Xingzong should also come soon. Although there are not many strong people among these people, there are many strong people who plunder. As long as there are not too many strange animals in the earth, these people are enough to cope with them."

"What if it's a spirit beast or a god beast?" Shen Zhang asked again.

"Since the fall of the great Yan Empire established by Emperor Yan himself, the rules of heaven and earth in Qingmu continent have changed greatly. The power of Qingmu has spread all over the whole continent, forming the rules of Qingmu. Under the pressure of Aoki's law, even if it is a divine beast, as long as it has nine Jedi, it can only exert the highest fighting power at most. Leave this matter to me, and I have a way to solve it. " It's said that the landing is short of touching the imperial spirit tripod on his chest, and the imperial spirit beast Xiaobai will come in a while. With the imperial spirit beast on his side and the help of the imperial spirit tripod, Lu believes that even the divine beast can't threaten his strategy.

"To you? Well, as long as you're confident. " Shen Zhang frowned at Lu's words, but he didn't want to say much. Even if he was curious about what Lu had to do, he didn't know how to deal with the beast at the top of Qingmu.

"Uncle Shen, I've just reached the age of 17, and Daqian has just been in the prime of life. Don't worry, I won't make fun of my life and the well-being of Daqian's hundreds of millions of people." Seeing that Shen Zhang was curious and worried, Lu que made a promise. He didn't want Shen Zhang to worry about his presence when he held fast to zhennanguan, which would be too bad for zhennanguan's defense.

"Well, since you're so sure, I won't ask more." Shen Zhang nodded, then pointed to the troops who were constantly crossing Hebei Province from Danshui and said, "today, the benlei army will have a rest on the North Bank of Danshui. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the army back to zhennanguan, so there will be no more delay here. After all, although the twelve main armies and the twenty-four guards of Daqian belong to waige, they have their own systems. I need time to discuss with the two leaders of Zhuo guards about the deployment of the front line of zhennanguan. "

"According to Uncle Shen." Lu nodded and said, "Uncle Shen and the soldiers of the thunder army have been marching hard recently. Why don't I set up a military banquet at the foot of the mountain tonight to reward the soldiers?"

"No more." Shen Zhang waved his hand and said, "the front-line materials are not very rich. We'd better wait for the feast to celebrate the victory after destroying the animal tide."

"So good." Lu nodded

"Marshal Lu, my doubts have been solved. If there is nothing else, I will go down the mountain and return to the army. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the army back to zhennanguan. I won't come to say goodbye to you." Shen Zhang said again.

"The day of war is approaching, so it should be. Shen Shuai, please help yourself. I have some military affairs to be busy, so I won't personally send Shen Shuai down the mountain." Seeing that Shen Zhang changed his name, Lu que also answered.

"I will leave at the end of the day." Shen Zhang made a military salute to Lu que, threw his flaming cloak behind him, turned around and went directly down the wall.

"Lu que, can Shen Shuai really hold zhennanguan under the impact of the tide of animals?" After Shen Zhang left, Zhuge Yan, who didn't know where he came from, asked with some worry.

"Among the officials of his Majesty's hidden residence, Bai Yi, Marquis of Wu'an, is good at attacking, and Shen Zhang, Marquis of wu'yi, is good at defending. Before he was transferred to benlei army, he was the best commander of Panshi army. He led 400000 troops to guard zhennanguan. In addition to his father, only Shen Shuai was able to take on the responsibility. "

After Lu que finished this sentence, he suddenly thought of Qiu lie, the mad lion war commander who died in xiyuanze. If Qiu lie had not been determined to die, but had taken the green leaves he gave him to save his life in xiyuanze's declining power, and then returned to Daqian, he would be a more suitable person to guard Zhennan pass than Shen Zhang.

Think of here, Lu short long sigh, for that although the opponent, but let his heart of respect star Marshal feel sorry.

"There is also the commander of the left and right Zhuo guards in zhennanguan, and the Imperial City worship led by yunshouzun is there. It should be able to guarantee the safety of Zhennan pass. Even if it doesn't work, I have a back hand. " Lu que looked at Zhuge Yan, looked to the northwest and said.

"By the way, Lu que, now Shen Shuai's thunder army has crossed the river, and sister Gu's Fengxiang yunqi will soon arrive. Would you like to send a letter to Gu Xiang and ask about the progress of Zhongxing city?" Zhuge Yan knew what Lu que didn't want to say, even if his majesty came to ask. So I changed the topic directly.

"Don't use it," Lu said after thinking about it for a long time. If we send a book to Gu Xiang now, it may disturb his rhythm. "

"You said the same thing." Zhuge Yan thought for a while, nodded and asked, "what else do we have to do besides waiting for the thunder army to pass and setting up fire traps in the Canyon?"

"Wait, wait for sister Qingcheng to lead the army, wait for Tianxing to come back, wait for Xiyuan beast tide to break out."
