Pingnan County is getting hotter.

Countless people spontaneously went outside the military camp to ask for orders to help soldiers carry equipment to guard the city, repair the city walls, etc., just like Zhao Dongting helped them repair their houses and distribute military rations when he led his army into the city.

What a scene of harmony between the military and the civilians.

This has passed seven days.

Pingnan County is still preparing for war intensively. The Intelligence Department has compiled secret letters to Zhao Dongting every day. Zhao Dongting only practices martial arts, reads books, and practices art in the room every day. He wants Le Chan, who is closest to him, and even Le Wuqian, Zhao Da, Zhao Hu and others don’t know whether he is anxious or not.

It was not until this day that the Information Department submitted a secret message to the courtyard where Zhao Dongting lived, and Zhao Dongting suddenly took Le Wugong to hurriedly leave and headed to the main hall of the government office. The Yuan army advanced troops had arrived and were stationed in Pingdan Post not far from Pingnan County. Judging from the situation, the Yuan army obviously planned to gather in Pingdan Post and then launch a large-scale attack.

In ancient times, warfare was usually backed by cities, because only by staying in cities could we ensure logistics, military strength and other supplies.

It only takes a few days to fight in the wild.

Soon, all the generals were announced to the main hall.

Zhao Dongting stood in the hall, handed the secret letter in his hand to Wen Tianxiang, and said to everyone: "The vanguard of the Yuan army has gathered at Pingdan Post. How do you think our army should deal with it?"

Pingdan Post was originally the garrison of the Song army, and the distance to Pingnan was about the same as from Hanjin County to Pingnan.

If you march at a very fast speed, you can reach the city of Pingnan in just a few days, and the cavalry will be faster.

It can be said that a war is imminent.

The generals looked serious and pondered, but no one spoke.

Wen Tianxiang carefully looked at the superstition in his hand and handed it to Su Quandang next to him.

After all the generals saw it, Yue Peng said angrily: "Your Majesty, the last general asks to send troops, go and kill them first and then talk about it!"

Zhao Dongting closed his eyes slightly: "Do you think this method is feasible or not?"

Su Quandang said, "Your Majesty, I think it's better to go to explore the real and real Yuan army first. However, this trip is probably not enough to stop most of the troops from coming, so as not to be dragged by the enemy at the same time, and then you will fall into a passive position."

Yue Peng said: "I can lead the guards to go with the horse army."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, but asked: "How are the food, sky-blasting thunder, landmines and other weapons transported from Leizhou?"

The sky-blasting thunder is also a new weapon developed by Zhao Dongting during the nearly two months of rest in Leizhou. It is said that it is a new type, but it is actually a slight transformation of the porcelain jar and a filling of iron sheets, gravel and other things in the porcelain jar, and then the ratio of the medicine induced is slightly changed, which extends the time of the mines, which is similar to that of the grenade.

Zhao Dongting did not want to use too many new things before, but the attack of the Ali Hague army would inevitably be a fierce battle, so he had to let Leizhou send the sky-booming thunder. As for the changes such as landmines, grenade launchers, sky-booming thunder and other firearms would cause in the future, he now doesn't care.

The official in charge of logistics in the army replied: "When you return to the emperor, all the food and grass have been put into the warehouse, and the mines have been distributed to the soldiers."

Yue Peng followed and said, "It's now buried everywhere outside the city."

Zhao Dongting nodded again and said, "Okay, then General Yue, you will lead the guards' personal army to Pingdan Post to test the enemy. I will give you two hundred thunders on the sky. Remember, don't fight in love. No matter what the result of the battle, after throwing all the thunders on the sky into Pingdan Post, you will immediately lead your troops back!"

"yes!"

Yue Peng bowed to take the order, and then hurried out to the hall.

Zhao Dongting looked at Wen Tianxiang, Su Quandang and others again, and said, "The soldiers in the city are divided into two parts. The Divine Beggar Army is a new soldier. He will first serve as a reserve officer and practice diligently. He will make plans until the Yuan army attacks the city."

"The last general takes the order."

Dongheli, the commander of the Divine Beggar Army, also bowed to accept the order. Now, the Divine Beggar Army has more than 20,000 soldiers.

Zhao Dongting didn't want to send all his troops to the city wall to prevent accidents. Furthermore, Pingnan County is only so big, and there is basically no need to defend the west and south sides, and it is impossible for too many soldiers to be allowed on the city wall.

Since the Tang Dynasty, there were reserves in the army.

In the afternoon, Yue Peng led two thousand guards and personal horses out of the city. Originally, there were only more than a thousand, but recently, a thousand people were transferred from the imperial guards in front of the palace.

In Zhao Dongting's heart, the Flying Dragon Army is a special force, while the guards are elite. The imperial guards in front of the palace are considered elite reserves.

The two thousand guards were all riding tall horses with horses, horseshoes nailed on their hooves, and soldiers carried bags on their waists, with dry food for five days in their bags. A few were carrying two, dry food on the left and thunder on the right.

This is a complete lightweight battle.

As soon as he arrived outside the city, Yue Peng shouted loudly, and the soldiers galloped on their horses. A string of yellow dust rose slowly in the afterglow of the sunset, and then quickly left.

Zhao Dongting led some flying dragon soldiers to stand at the top of the city, watching Yue Peng lead his army away, and felt a little solemn.

He was not sure whether Yue Peng could come back alive now.

Although the sky-booming thunder is extremely powerful, it does not mean invincibility. The sky-booming thunder created by Leizhou is only a thousand sky-booming thunder, and it is Zhao Dongting who has made 200 to Yue Peng. The Yuan army is powerful and if it wants to defeat this battle, the sky-booming thunder plays a crucial role.

After not seeing the figures of the army and horses led by Yue Peng, Zhao Dongting left the city and went to inspect everywhere.

There are no mistakes in defending the city, because if the mistake is caught by the enemy, it is likely to become a winner.

The sky gradually became dim.

On the banks of the Wujiang River, Yue Peng led two thousand soldiers and was still moving towards Pingdan Post.

He wanted to attack Pingdan Post before the subsequent Yuan army troops arrived at Pingdan Post, or he would send sheep into the tiger's mouth.

It was not until late at night that the horse army stopped and rested in the forest. Before the camp was built or the fire was born, they ate the dry food they carried with them.

The atmosphere in the military seemed a bit solemn.

When Yue Peng saw this situation, he said, "How do all the brothers think we are compared to the Feilong Army?"
