"I wonder if my niece can cooperate with Ding Xiaoniang... Deputy General Ding... My niece has a bit of a bad temper."

Wan'an Army City, the temporary royal palace main hall, Zhao Lie, Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou, Shi Yang, Zhang Ba, Su Jingzhan and other generals were all present.

At this time, Ouyang Guanhou was talking about something, his tone was a little uneasy.

Zhao Lie, who was sitting upright, laughed and shook his head slightly: "Whoever leads don't have a temper? Can this momentum be suppressed? Don't worry, Xiao Yi, I understand, his temper is also a bit shaky. But as long as you have real skills and impress her, you will never say anything in front of the serious business."

It turns out that Ouyang Luoyan is Ouyang Guanhou's niece. Ouyang Guanhou is a hero in southern Ganzhou. He is a family heir of guns and sticks, and his children and nephews are all practicing martial arts. No wonder Ouyang Luoyan is so good-looking.

However, the reason why Zhao Lie chose Ouyang Luoyan as Ding Xiaoyi's deputy and served as the training officer of Yan Ling's team was not only because of this woman's good skills, but more importantly, Ouyang Luoyan's identity - she is the only female dark claw in the Black Crow Dark Claw Organization.

Members of the Dark Claw Organization are skilled in assassination, infiltration, disguise, and ambushing. They are all good materials for spies. Nearly twenty of them have joined the martial arts team and the Sharp Shou Camp, and have fully utilized their skills and become the backbone of the martial arts team and the Sharp Shou Camp.

But Ouyang Luoyan did not join the Dragon Que Army. She had been performing various tasks of Black Crow in southern Jiang, until this time she followed the old man from the sect leader Jiang Zongjie to cross the sea and came to Qiongzhou. First, she was carrying out the task of escorting and supervising the volunteer family who were traveling south with the ship; second, she wanted to see what her uncle said in the letter, the Dragon Que Army.

Ouyang Luoyan did indeed fulfill his mission. On the way with the boat, he found three (female) pirate spies who served the Mongol Yuan, which was highly praised by the sect leader Jiang Zongjie.

After arriving at Yacheng, Ouyang Luoyan was ordered to continue to lurk, playing an important role in identifying female relatives and prostitutes who surrendered to the Yuan army. Because of his merits, he was the ninth-rank Chengxinlang.

When the official was sent to Ouyang Luoyan by prosecuting her, she could hardly believe it. You know, in the past three years she joined the Black Crow to serve in the Black Crow, and assassinated seven officials from various prefectures in the Yuan Dynasty, including three civil officials of the seventh rank and two military generals of more than a hundred households. She pretended to sneak into the office of the Yuan generals as maids, stealing various intelligences, and making great contributions to the Zhongshun Army's repeated defeats of powerful enemies. These achievements were better than what she did now, and were more difficult and dangerous. In addition to material rewards, she only had the status of the sect and became one of the leaders. However, other fellow disciples, even if their achievements were not as good as theirs, had received various medal ranks and had completely different status.

Ouyang Luoyan occasionally felt vaguely resentful, but the world has been in the torrent of the world, and as a woman, what can she do?

Unexpectedly, this time I went south, I did a few small matters with extremely small dangers and no difficulty, and I was awarded the title of official position, and I jumped from white to an officer. The world is so big that there are tens of millions of women. Except for those who came from wealthy families or husbands, who were honored by their own abilities, there were only one Ding Xiaoyi and Ouyang Luoyan!

Afterwards, a transfer order was sent to Jiang Zongjie. Jiang Zongjie found Ouyang Luoyan and asked her what she meant, whether she was willing to join the Dragon Que Army to serve. Ouyang Luoyan almost agreed without thinking - how many people don't want to realize their own value in life? The more strange the woman is, the more unwilling to be a female!

After Ouyang Luoyan joined the Dragon Crow Army, the first task he received was to serve as the newly formed Yan Ling team training officer and train Yan Ling female soldiers' dark claw skills.

It should be noted that this training officer does not mean "the officer in charge of training", but a formal official title.

The correspondence between military positions in the late Southern Song Dynasty and later generations is basically as follows: training officers (platoon leader), generals (company commanders), preparation generals (non-main battalion commanders), deputy generals (secondary battalion commanders), chief generals (main battalion commanders), commanders (corps commanders), commanders (member commanders), commanders (commanders of the provincial military region), and prosecutors (commanders of the military region).

Therefore, Ouyang Luoyan, the training officer, is equivalent to the platoon leader of later generations. He is the deputy captain in Yan Ling's team, second only to Ding Xiaoyi.

This appointment was made for her. So Ouyang Luoyan took office happily, and after getting off the ship, he seized the opportunity to give Ding Xiaoyi and other female soldiers a warning, shocking the girls, and then he gained a foothold in Yan Ling's team.

Of course, these things are not something Zhao Lie needs to pay attention to. What Zhao Lie needs to consider now is how many troops he needs to mobilize to fight against Qiongguan.

According to the information, the Qiongguan originally had a Zhongwanhu Mansion with 5,000 troops, plus about 1,000 troops in Xuanwei Office, totaling 6,000 troops. Ali Hague invaded south and recruited Zhongwanhu in Qiongzhou and suddenly lost the Hague and 3,000 elite troops. There were only 3,000 troops left in Qiongzhou, most of which were auxiliary soldiers, and they were weak.

If, after defeating Ali Hague, before the Qiongguan Yuan army had time to react, Xingchao could quickly integrate its troops and head north. Even if there were only three or five thousand soldiers and horses, they could defeat the powerful enemy and face the battle, and they could still go down in one go.

Unfortunately, due to the step-by-step pressure from the Empress Dowager Party, Zhao Lie did not even seize the opportunity to return north without even being safe. The court lost the opportunity to recover the entire Qiongzhou. After the Yacheng Incident, it took several months for Zhao Lie to clean up the mess and rectify the court. During this period, information from Qiongguan and all aspects of the coastal areas flew like snowflakes: Qiongzhou Xuanwei sent Long Wenming to urgently conquer local soldiers and foreign soldiers, expanding the army to 5,000; Qiongguanzhou City conscripted corvee labor and strengthening the city; Guangzhou and Leizhou urgently sent 3,000 troops into Qiongguan; Guangnan West Road and Guangnan East Road prefectures began to recruit troops, and there were movements to gather south; Leizhou, Guangzhou and Quanzhou built ships...

By the end of April, the Qiongguan Yuan army had a force of 8,000, which was equivalent to a tens of thousands of households.

Eight thousand sounds quite a lot, but Zhao Lie, Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou, Shi Yang, Zhang Ba, Su Jingzhan and other generals analyzed based on intelligence. These eight thousand men and horses were far inferior to the Ali Hague army, and were even worse than the eight thousand soldiers who suddenly lost the Hague to encircle Wan'an army. The eight thousand soldiers were divided into three pieces: the original Qiongguan 3,000 soldiers, two thousand newly conquered local soldiers, and the coastal states lost 3,000 new troops.

The combat power of the three thousand soldiers and horses of Qiongguan was low, which was equivalent to one thousand ordinary new army; the local soldiers and foreign soldiers were brave, but the language customs were different from that of the Han soldiers, so it was difficult to integrate. In addition, the courage of ordinary men was equivalent to one thousand new army; the three thousand soldiers and horses recruited along the coast were all new army used by the prefectures to defend the city, with the majority of soldiers and not many elite soldiers, and at most they were only equivalent to one thousand ordinary new army.

In this way, the combat power of the 8,000 Yuan army is only equivalent to the 3,000 new affiliated troops at the bottom of the Mongolian Yuan army. It can be seen that the defeat of Ali Hague was really a big impact, which made the Mongol Yuan coastal troops short of strength. It would be not a matter of time to reorganize a powerful boat army like that.

Eight thousand inferior soldiers, in Ouyang Guanhou's words, "there are a lot of rats, they are all for feeding cats."

So, how much force does the Dragon Crow Army need to use to destroy these three thousand "mouses"?

After the generals finally analyzed it, they had a clear mind. Zhao Lie was about to let the generals express their opinions, but Jiang Fenglie suggested that everyone write a number.

Su Jingzhan, who had a lot of humanistic feelings in his ancestors, immediately agreed.

Zhao Lie smiled and nodded: "Shi Yi's proposal is good. Come and serve you."

So everyone handed a pen dipped in thick ink and outlined it in their palms.

After counting breaths, the six generals stretched out their left palms together.

Under the candlelight, Zhao Lie, Jiang Fenglie, Ouyang Guanhou, and Shi Yang wrote: Five thousand.

Zhang Ba and Su Jingzhan wrote: Eight thousand.

Zhang Ba and Su Jingzhan were both shocked and were about to explain.

Zhao Lie laughed: "You don't have to be surprised. Our Dragon Que Army is a habit. When attacking, only the number of soldiers is recorded, except for the soldiers. Well, five thousand soldiers plus three thousand soldiers are equivalent to eight thousand. The six of us and others coincide with each other. It's very 6, very 6, hahaha..."
