Chapter 576 Go All Out
Zhao Shuo listened to Lin Feng's words patiently, and then sorted them out in his mind.
"No problem, big brother. Just leave it to me. If I mess up, I'll bring my head back to you."
Lin Feng laughed and scolded: "How dare you come to see me if you have no fucking brain."
Zhao Shuo scratched his head and said, "Hey, don't worry, big brother. I'm going."
After saying this, he waved his hand, asked a few guards to follow him, and then mounted his horse and left.
Lin Feng set up two camps and deployed chariots in the camp on the gentle slope.
In the flatter camp, there were five thousand heavily armored cavalry stationed.
After selection, Chu Jiao's heavy armored battalion has expanded to 5,000 troops.
Lin Qiaomei's long-range attack camp has also expanded to 10,000 people, divided into two teams, with 5,000 people in each camp.
The other light cavalry teams each chose a camp to set up camp.
Because most of the Black Scarf Army that rushed over from Kyoto City were infantry.
There were not too many obstacles outside the Zhenxi Army's camp, only a reinforced camp fence more than two meters high.
No trenches were dug. There were heavy armored battalions and chariot battalions in their own camp, both of which needed to charge on flat ground.
Everything is ready and all teams begin to rest.
Each department assigned a team to take turns patrolling and keeping watch.
In fact, these are just routine matters. Everyone knows that Wei Bao's cavalry battalion is almost omnipresent.
Within a radius of several hundred miles, any disturbance will be transmitted back immediately.
Qiu Jie's 80,000 Black Scarf Army pushed forward all the way, and two days later, they stopped fifty miles away from Lindu City.
They changed their previous posture of charging forward with all their forces and attacking fiercely, and began to advance cautiously step by step.
The officers at all levels under Qiu Jie also knew that the Zhenxi Army on the opposite side was not easy to deal with.
Although they have an absolute advantage in numbers, they are not arrogant at all.
The military camp was built very solidly by them, with patrols and visible and hidden sentries densely distributed around it.
Eighty thousand Black Scarf Army soldiers settled down in the camp and spread out in a large area in the fields.
It was right between the Zhenxi Army and the Lindu City, firmly blocking the Lindu City behind it.
Prince Fu was in the palace, and his heart finally settled.
Although he was safe, he sighed that he didn't know how long the battle in Kyoto would last.
Perhaps in another half month, the defenders of Kyoto City will collapse.
Who would have thought that Lin Feng would be so deceitful to him at this critical moment?
When Prince Fu thought of Lin Feng, he was so angry that he started smashing and cursing, making everyone in the palace panic and afraid to breathe.
King Fu is already forty-five years old this year. After venting his anger, he gradually calmed down.
He glanced at Lan Yu standing in the corner.
"Mr. Lan is quite good. He advised me to pay attention to Lin Feng a long time ago. Who knew that due to some unforeseen circumstances, we would end up in this situation..."
"Well, sir, do you have any good ideas?"
Lan Yu watched King Fu vent his emotions quietly, and he was already thinking about how to deal with Lin Feng.
Hearing King Fu's question at this time, he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, Lin Feng's power is now established. In my opinion..."
Lan Yu paused for a moment and turned to look at Miao Changfeng.
"It would be best to withdraw the troops besieging Kyoto City and concentrate on destroying Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army."
When these words were spoken, everyone in the hall was stunned.
The King of Talismans frowned and stared at Lan Yu with a gloomy look, not moving for a long time.
Miao Changfeng smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Lan, can you explain in detail? Otherwise, why would His Majesty give up the capital that is so close to his grasp?"
Lan Yu nodded: "Has the Zhenxi Army ever been defeated since entering the Central Plains?"
Everyone frowned and shook their heads.
"Not only have they not been defeated once, they have even inflicted several heavy losses on us. This is a tragedy unlike anything we've experienced since we started fighting the imperial army."
Lan Yu took a deep breath: "This gives us a warning. The Zhenxi Army is much stronger than other armies. We need to take it seriously. As long as we go all out and destroy the Zhenxi Army, as for the Imperial Guards of Kyoto City..."
Miao Changfeng immediately responded, "Yes, we will be able to destroy it sooner or later."
Prince Fu glared at Miao Changfeng and asked, "Could it be that the Black Scarf Army, with 80,000 men, cannot destroy the Zhenxi Army?"
The commander of the Black Scarf Army, Qiu Jie, had already entered Lindu City and was sitting below Miao Changfeng, listening to his instructions.
Seeing King Fu asking the question, he quickly stood up and bowed.
"Your Majesty, this time I will go all out and destroy the Zhenxi Army at the gates of Lindu."
Miao Changfeng glanced at him and said, "What's the point of just talking? Mr. Lan has explained it again and again, so we must take it seriously."
He seemed to be scolding Qiu Jie, but he was actually speaking to King Fu.
The Zhenxi Army is such a tough nut to crack, it shouldn't be left to the Black Scarf Army alone to tackle.
Qiu Jie looked at him in a daze, not knowing how to respond.
Prince Fu slammed the table and said, "Let Luo Yunfei retreat to the eight great citadels of Kyoto, and dispatch another 20,000 cavalry to rush to the aid of Lindu."
This was a great determination on his part. He didn't want to give up the siege of Kyoto, but he also responded to the Blue Domain's strategy.
Lan Yu felt that it was still not enough.
"Your Highness, in my opinion, the Kyoto City only has 50,000 troops stationed in Kuncheng. Given the capabilities of the Imperial Guards, they certainly wouldn't dare to leave the city to fight, thus blocking their path to reinforce the Zhenxi Army."
Miao Changfeng said anxiously, "Once the siege is lifted and grain is transferred into the capital, won't that give them another chance to catch their breath?"
Lan Yu laughed and said, "Boss Miao also said that this is just a chance to catch our breath. The Zhenxi Army is like an awl that can pierce a person's heart, while the Imperial Guard is just a ball of dough. If we loosen up, they will spread out a little, so what if we tighten up?"
Qiu Jie nodded and said, "Mr. Lan is right. As long as we hold on tight, the Imperial Guards will be like a steamed bun, ready for us to eat."
Prince Fu pondered for a moment and said, "I know that old fellow Wan Quan very well. He is a cunning and treacherous man who has commanded the army for a long time. He should not be underestimated."
Everyone was silent, waiting for further instructions from King Fu.
"The Zhenxi Army only has 50,000 men, 80,000 Black Turban Army, and 20,000 Iron Cavalry. They are more than enough to defeat the enemy. You should immediately formulate a plan to annihilate the enemy and strive to wipe out the Zhenxi Army within ten days."
Hearing King Fu speak like this, Lan Yu knew that he could no longer defend himself, so he said no more.
Qiu Jie bowed and said yes, then stepped back to the door and turned away.
Lan Yu also nodded and slowly left.
Miao Changfeng also wanted to leave, but as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by King Fu.
"Changfeng, how is your assassination plan going?"
Miao Changfeng sighed in his heart, what you fear will come true.
"Your Highness, it is said that Dark Sky has already sent out its top assassins, but there has been no report back yet. I think the situation is still ongoing."
"There are a few good men among my guards who can help me."
Miao Changfeng quickly shook his head: "Your Highness, it is difficult to get a chance to attack in the middle of a military formation. The role of these martial arts masters is very limited."
King Fu frowned: "With more skilled hands, we can accomplish our mission. First, let them infiltrate the Zhenxi Army and act accordingly."
"Your Highness, the Zhenxi Army is very strictly controlled. Not only are there many familiar faces around Lin Feng, but even the ordinary soldiers, from the captain to the squad leader, can be called out by name."
Prince Fu was stunned. "You mean, a captain can also call out the name of every soldier in his own team?"
Miao Changfeng nodded affirmatively: "Your Highness, this is not an exaggeration at all."
