I'm a big dick

Chapter 269 Everything is ready, just waiting to be killed
This is why Xiong Tingbi wanted to see the training results of the cavalry and test the effect of the cooperation between the Flying Cavalry Battalion and the Dragon Cavalry Battalion.

Jin Guofeng poured a glass of wine for Yang Guozhu, and said, "Where are the Xingshan and Tashan you are talking about so indestructible as Jueyuan? If you don't let Jiannu come over, the city that was spent so much money and the Hongyi cannons that were arranged are all wasted." ?”

Yang Guozhu chuckled, raised his glass as a signal, and said, "Of course I know the severity. It's not easy to get out of the Dragon Riding Battalion training, and I'm not willing to suffer heavy casualties."

Jin Guofeng drank a glass of wine with Yang Guozhu, and said: "Jiannu's striker should be able to arrive tomorrow, and the team led by the old slave will not be too late. It seems that the first day of the new year can be rested for a day!"

"I don't think so." Fan Hualong put down his chopsticks and said, "Jiannu's striker is Mangurtai's inlaid blue flag. With that guy's recklessness, he might attack when he arrives!"

Jin Guofeng pondered and said: "Just relying on a team of people, no matter how arrogant you are, you don't dare to act rashly, right? It's just that I don't know how far the brigade led by the old slave is."

"What?" Yang Guozhu probably guessed what Jin Guofeng was thinking, and asked, "You still want to take the initiative and kill Mangurtai first?"

Jin Guofeng blinked his eyes, smiled wryly, and said, "I really want to, but it's a pity that God is not good."

Yang Guozhu and Fan Hualong looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

It's snowing, it's Jiannu's luck.I'm afraid this is also an important reason why Xiong Tingbili is cautious and wants to fight in the most complete defense of Ningyuan City!
Of course, even if the weather is affected, with the strength of the troops in Ningyuan City, the striker who besieged Mangurtai with all his strength is sure of victory.But the loss will definitely not be small, and it will be difficult to face the main force of Jianu next.

Because of the different perspectives, Zhu Youxiao and Xiong Tingbi are focusing on the long-term and overall situation, adopting a relatively balanced strategy and tactics between preserving strength and destroying the enemy.

The generals at the middle and lower levels are more looking forward to military merits and promotions, and it is normal that they do not think far enough.

In fact, there is no need to worry that Jiannu will not attack after arriving at the city. Don't you know what they are doing here?
The siege is even more impossible. The logistics supply line has been stretched, and if they want to get supplies from the rear, Houjin does not have that logistics capability.

The grain, grass and materials brought in with the army can last half a month at most, or even less.The only way for Jiannu to solve the problem is to capture Ningyuan or Juehua.

Judging from the current situation, although Juehua's sea surface is frozen near the shore, it is not frozen, and it is almost no longer the target of Jiannu's attack.

Therefore, attacking Ningyuan is Jiannu's only option.If the last strong city established by the Ming army outside the pass is pulled out, not only will they get supplies, food and grass, but the situation in Liaodong will also change.

In the Jinglue Mansion in Ningyuan City, Xiong Tingbi finished eating the dumplings, but did not drink a drop of wine.After getting dressed, the old bear strode out, took dozens of soldiers, and went to inspect the city defense.

It is absolutely certain to stick to the defense, the problem is to kill and injure as many enemies as possible, so as to damage their forces, which is more conducive to the siege and blockade arranged by the Quartet.

So, Old Bear has a plan.To put it simply, Jiannu should not lose confidence all at once, and even give them some hope.

Moreover, how to give full play to the power of the Hongyi cannon, preferably killing and wounding the big boss of Jiannu, is also a matter of timing.

To put it bluntly, to hide the killer first, or start a tug-of-war with the enemy on the ground, so that Jiannu will continue to invest and continue to be killed or injured, which is what the old bear wants to achieve.

The snowflakes are still falling sparsely, which is not disturbing, but refreshing.

The ground is only a thin layer, and the city walls are also lined with silver.Going up to the top of the city and looking out, you can have a panoramic view of the vertical and horizontal ditches and covered grass sheds.

"My lord." Huang Degong, who was in charge of the guard, stepped forward and bowed to salute, "The last general has just finished his inspection, and the officers and soldiers are all very well, and we will just wait to fight Jiannu tomorrow."

Xiong Tingbi nodded, with a smile on his face, and said: "There may not be a battle tomorrow. The Eastern Prisoners have just arrived at the city, and they still have to build siege equipment. Without two or three days of preparation, they will never attack the city."

"But our army's vigilance must not be relaxed." Xiong Tingbi said again: "You have done a good job, inspections are indispensable, and supervision is also indispensable."

Huang Degong bowed to accept the order, and accompanied Xiong Tingbi to patrol the top of the city.

"When the eastern captives arrive, they must cut off the mountain and sea road first, and set up a big camp in the north of the city." Xiong Tingbi pointed and said, "I expect that they will not besiege from all sides, but focus on one side."

"Should we attack the north first?" Huang Degong guessed with his eyes wide open, "Then dare to ask your lord to transfer the last general to guard the north."

Xiong Tingbi smiled and said: "The north cannot be handed over to you, and if Jiannu wants to attack, it should be in the northeast and northwest directions. Because they will think that the defense of the corner tower is a weak point."

This is a conventional siege strategy, and Ningyuan is not a strict bastion. Jiannu will attack according to this routine in all likelihood.

"If there is progress in the siege of the city, and Donglu doesn't know that there are Hongyi cannons at the top of the city, they may move forward." Xiong Tingbi stroked his beard and sneered, "As long as they are within the range of the cannons, they will be caught off guard. "

Huang Degong didn't understand very well, and asked, "Are you going to let Jiannu attack the city? Isn't the defense system outside the city going to be abandoned?"

Xiong Tingbi smiled slightly and said: "Give up some positions a little bit, or advance and retreat in offense and defense, so that Donglu can continue to invest in troops and fall into repeated fights with our army. There are grenadiers and grenades. Jiannu is fighting for positions. Is it an opponent of our army?"

Huang Degong understood a little bit, and said: "Master Jinglue is brilliant. If you hit hard all at once, Jiannu will no longer dare to attack, and our preparations will be in vain."

"If Donglu can be defeated in this battle and come back, I'm afraid I won't be able to slow down within half a year." Xiong Tingbi narrowed his eyes and said, "Next year, Donglu may be forced to retreat. Our army can also go forward. Go out to Dalinghe and Jinzhou to form a greater restraint on the eastern captives."

Huang Degong nodded vigorously, and said: "If we can't grab it this time, Jiannu's life will be even more difficult. When our army recaptures Guangning, Jiannu may be doomed."

Xiong Tingbi smiled and nodded, and returned to Guangning to form a greater suppression of Jiannu with the Dongjiang Army, which was indeed his strategic idea.

Stabilizing the position by retreating, and then recovering Guangning, does mean a major turning point in the situation in Liaodong, and it is also Xiong Tingbi's obsession that has never been forgotten.

This obsession has been deeply planted in Xiong Tingbi's heart since he abandoned Guangning.It must be called back again, and what was lost from someone must be taken back by someone.

And the emperor's strong support for him and his great investment in Liaozhen's military undoubtedly gave Xiong Tingbi more and more confidence.
