Wu Ling held up a telescope and looked at Changning County City in the distance. Standing at his position, even with the help of the telescope, Changning County City was only the size of a small box in his eyes. Around this small box, there were countless bunkers, trenches, and chest walls. Except for occasionally seeing some soldiers shaking, there was a silence in the entire defense zone, and it was impossible to see that in this defense zone, Xian Bisong arranged tens of thousands of soldiers waiting for the Ming army's attack.

Xian Bisong is worthy of being a defensive master. After several years, the line of defense he managed made Wu Ling quite scratch his head. After nearly two months, he finally wiped out the most periphery of Changning County and approached Changning County City, but the more arduous battle was also waiting for him.

Wu Ling is now a little complaining that His Majesty handed over the cement formula to Qi State and asked the people of Qi to learn the construction technology of steel bars and mud structures. The result was that the cities and bunkers in front of him were all like this. The earlier battles have clearly shown that with the power of the bombs of the Ming Dynasty today, it could not effectively destroy these steel cement fortresses. If you want to defeat the other party, you would hit them one by one.

But this must be filled with human life.

Three armies, Zhou Jiyun, had already driven Guo Xiancheng's army back to the Daling River area. Chen Zhihua's Red River Basin Legion came first. Now the leap tactic he used was well-known for cutting the Red River Basin to pieces. For example, Yanzhou chose to surrender after being cut off. After fighting with Suqian, Mizhou also surrendered to the Ming army. Now Chen Zhihua has already pointed directly at Luoyang.

But he, the Wuling Group, who had been preparing for the war, fell behind.

Of course, Wu Ling was not in a hurry. Because the enemies they faced were still different. Xian Bisong, opposite Wu Ling, led the former elite border army of Qi. After many military reforms, a large number of Longxiang troops flooded this army, which greatly increased the combat effectiveness of this army. More importantly, the fighting will is very strong.

Moreover, Xian Bisong had no idea of ​​exchanging space for time. He seemed to be just trying to make sure to fight the Ming army to the death in Changning County. From the beginning, more than 200,000 troops had been wiped out by the Ming army in an uninterrupted battle with the Ming army, but he was still nailed to Changning County like a nail.

For Wu Ling, he liked the opponent's idea very much, which means that he could do his best. As long as he killed the opponent's main force in Changning County, there would be no strong enemy in front of him to stop him. Although Zhou Jiyun was about to arrive in Daling River now, the main force of the Qi army led by Cao Chong, who withdrew from Luzhou and the troops around Chang'an were deploying defenses in Daling River, the hard battle he had to face had just begun!

Or when he hit the western suburbs of Chang'an, Zhou Jiyun was still competing with Cao Chong.

There was a huge noise in the sky. Nearly twenty airships flew over his head and headed towards Changning County City in the distance. Such bombing had lasted for more than ten days and had almost become a routine.

Wuling, who was called the devil king by the Qi people, had almost no taboos in fighting. The troops that bombed Changning County could drop their bombs at will, regardless of whether they were military facilities, enemy troops or poor people. In Wuling's view, any act of hitting the enemy's anger could be allowed. Not to mention the innocent people, no one is innocent in a battle to destroy the country. Wouldn't ordinary people become resisters? Wouldn't they provide support to the soldiers guarding the city? Even if they were just carrying the wounded and delivering food, it was a fighting act against the Ming army.

But today is different. Today is no longer a routine bombing, but a prelude to the attack.

Changning County City was more than ten miles around the city, and more than 100,000 Ming troops were distributed in three directions, leaving only one direction towards Kaiping. Of course, this was not Wu Ling's surrounds, but because in Kaiping, another general of Wuling War Zone, wild dogs, were leading their troops to attack fiercely. Wu Ling had no doubt that the wild dogs would easily take Kaiping, so that the last hole would be sealed.

What Wu Ling wanted was to do his best in one battle, and he did not want Xian Bisong to have room to retreat. He sought kindness and got kindness. Since Xian Bisong wanted to fight to the death in Changning County, Wu Ling decided to fulfill it.

Around him, senior generals of the Ming army, Lufeng, Chen Jialuo, Chen Jialuo, Baoqing camp, Chen Jinhua, Chen Shan camp in Hongshui camp, Dazhu of the Zhushan camp, Li Xiaoya, Che Zhe of Xinning camp, and of course, his own cheetah camp, plus the Canglang camp, Fuyuan camp, Houtu camp, and the old camps of the Ming army that are now in Kaiping, are basically concentrated in his subordinates. The only old camp in Daming that was so powerful that the world was left was Ruijin camp, and Panshi camp stationed in Yuejing City. Zhuifeng camp and Liehuo Death Camp are now following His Majesty in Kunling War Zone.

Between a large group of senior generals, a general with deep eyes and yellow hair at high places was particularly eye-catching. His name was Wiskele, and the powerful general under the command of Grand Duke Mattus in the Western Continent has been fighting under Wuling for almost a year.

Of course, in addition to a large group of military generals, there is also a civil servant wearing purple robe who is also very savory. This is Cheng Weigao of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty. Cheng Weigao was once the county magistrate of Kaiping County and the first former high-ranking official to surrender to Qin Feng. He just stepped down and returned to Yuejing City two years ago, or was forced to step down. The Minister of Rites was naturally a high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty, but now he is basically just a noble and has no real power. Qin Feng newly established the Ministry of Education, separated it from the Ministry of Rites, and separated the most powerful work in the Ministry of Rites.

Although the Ministry of Rites has more diplomatic tasks because the Ming Dynasty has opened up overseas colonies, overall, this Minister of Rites is very leisurely.

Of course, it depends on who is still clear or not. Cheng Weigao is naturally unwilling to be a mascot of Yuejing City. Some things can still be done, such as the front line to comfort the army. Doing so that the Ming Dynasty can appropriately increase his exposure rate and let everyone know that he is like him. The reason why he chose to come to the Wuling War Zone was naturally because it was full of Qin Feng's direct troops, and he would not be suspicious when he came here.

His arrival indeed caused a sensation in the entire Wuling War Zone, because what he brought was neither the silver rewards nor countless wine and meat, but countless beauties.

Cheng Weigao gathered the most famous opera troupes of the Ming Dynasty, and even the Heaven and Earth under Zi Luo, who were in charge of Zi Luo, and sent their best dance troupes to follow Cheng Weigao to the front line.

This is the first time that the Ming army has used this way to condolences to the front-line army.

You can imagine how bloody the soldiers who have been in the barracks have been so excited that they have seen so many women of Chi Yanyan at once.

Cheng Weigao still paid a lot of money. All the programs performed by these teams were books he summoned to rewrite and dances he compiled. There was only one theme. Defeat the people of Qi as soon as possible and save the people of Qi from the fire of water and fire, and then he could return to his hometown to reunite with his relatives.

The literati's ability to incite emotions was first-class. Wu Ling was worried that these women would be distracted by the military camp and would be unfavorable to the battle. However, after several performances, the morale not only did not fall but also rose unprecedentedly. Only then did Cheng Weigao and his team of beautiful women perform in various camps with confidence.

Cheng Weigao did not even forget that Wu Ling had an army of the Western Brigade. He even attacked Gaisen and Stenson and compiled a traditional song and dance from the Western Continent to perform under Weiskele.

As Cheng Weigao hoped, the Ming Weekly published a front-page headline that vigorously exaggerated his military service this time, and the effect was so significant that Jin Jingnan, the chief assistant of the Political Affairs Hall, had to consider doing the same for the Red River Basin and Kunling War Zone.

"General!" The blonde and blue-eyed Wiskele turned over and dismounted, walked to Wu Ling, clasped his fists and said. After coming here for a long time, he is now familiar with the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty. Even the Ming Dynasty is a scattered speech. Although it is said with great stuttering, it can make people understand the meaning.

"General Weiskele, your Ming Dynasty said, "Your Ming Dynasty is getting better and better." Wu Ling smiled and said to Weiskele. Since Weiskele came to his command, they always fought fiercely, so Wu Ling has always smiled at this foreign general. He originally had the idea of ​​letting them be suicide squads, but after one battle after another, the bravery and good fighting of this army made Wu Ling admire them a lot.

"I've been learning." Weiskeel said: "The general attack is about to be launched, and my unit is the pioneer." Weiskeel glanced at the enemy's defense zone in the distance, "This battle will be very difficult."

"What? General Wieskel is afraid. If he is timid in his heart, I can change troops and go up. Our soldiers are very eager to get the opportunity to be a pioneer." Wu Ling smiled, but those who are familiar with him know that when he smiles like this, he is actually a little angry.

"No, no, no, we are never afraid of any enemy." Wiskele shook his head, but his tone was a little sad: "I know our mission, and my subordinates know it. Even if the entire army is killed in battle, we will not take a step back. I just have a request, and I wonder if the general can agree?"

Wu Ling frowned slightly. He didn't like this kind of pre-war behavior.

"I don't know what it is? But let's listen!"

"When I first came to the general's command, my subordinates had a total of 10,000 soldiers. Now, there are only less than 8,000 people left." Wiskell said: "One,653 of them were killed in battle, and the rest could no longer go to the battlefield. After this battle, I don't know how many people would die, and I don't even know if I can survive until after this battle, so I want to say this request in advance, so that even if I die in battle, the general can help me fulfill this wish."
