【PS: Don't blame the belated update!】

For the soldiers of the Imperial Guard, the scene in front of me is probably unforgettable for life.

Just before them, one by one, the dead comrades appeared on the school ground again. This kind of mood was difficult for people in the military to understand.

The fallen imperial guards were magically resurrected again!

"You are back, comrade-in-arms!"

The soldiers on the school ground could not control their emotions and hugged each other.

Many of these "resurrected" comrades were killed in battle while covering their evacuation. When they saw them again, the guilt of the soldiers of the Fifth Division finally relieved slightly.

I am even more grateful to the Lord, who has contributed to this matter.

Unfortunately, four senior indigenous generals, Shi Hu, Lei Jingtian, Shanzhu and Shi Bao, were not in this resurrection sequence. Ouyang Shuo had no idea whether these four young generals had been killed or were unfortunately captured.

Ouyang Shuo hoped that they were captured.

In that case, at least there is hope of returning to the team. If it is killed, Ouyang Shuo will be powerless. As a historical general, Ma Teng could receive a system prompt when he was killed.

Shi Hu and the other two had no news.

The Seizure lurking in Yongren City is moving around to confirm their life and death.

…………

After the soldiers of the Imperial Guard calmed down, Ouyang Shuo announced several temporary appointments on the spot, appointing Lu Bu as the division commander of the First Division of the Imperial Guard First Legion.

At the same time, the deputy division commander of the Second Division and the Third Division temporarily served as the division commander. Since the deputy division commander of the Fourth Division was Shi Bao, Ouyang Shuo could only designate a brigade commander as the division commander.

There must be generals in the army, this is a temporary solution.

As for the vacancies of 15,000 captured soldiers, Ouyang Shuo did not draw personnel from the Independent Division of the Imperial Guard to supplement them.

This position is left for them.

Ouyang Shuo believed that even if there were 15,000 people missing, the First Corps of the Imperial Guards was a powerful army, enough to confront any legion head-on.

Especially after experiencing this change, the soldiers were even more motivated.

After adjusting the personnel arrangements, Ouyang Shuo was about to get up and leave the military camp, but was stopped by Huo Qubing.

Seeing that the First Corps of the Imperial Guards had been resurrected, Huo Qubing immediately asked for a fight, "Your Majesty, I will be confident that I will retake Dongchuan County within five days, and I will also ask you to agree."

"No." Ouyang Shuo shook his head decisively.

"Your Majesty?"

Huo Qubing was a little confused and felt even more aggrieved in his eyes. He thought that the emperor no longer trusted the Imperial Guards and no longer trusted him as the Imperial Guards commander.

"Talk here." Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo turned around and left the school ground and came to a corner of the military camp. The accompanying guard immediately scattered and guarded the four directions, strictly prohibiting anyone from approaching.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and explained: "It's not that I don't believe you alone. Think about it, in the eyes of the enemy, the First Corps of the Imperial Guards is no longer in the combat sequence. You are now a surprise soldier, and you can kill the enemy at a critical moment. As for mere Dongchuan County, what is it?! If you want to occupy Swordsman City, then let them occupy it. As long as we win on the main battlefield, it will not take a minute to recover Dongchuan County."

The Imperial Guards' ten-day battle was not useless. One of them, they annihilated the local garrisons, and the other was that they destroyed all teleportation arrays except Yongren City.

In this way, the enemy would probably not be able to do anything else in Dongchuan County.

Now, if you don’t move Dongchuan County, you will avoid alerting the snake, so as not to increase troops from Swordsman City to threaten the security of Kunming County; the other hand, you will also paralyze the Allies and the [Yunnan City State] and let them relax their vigilance.

It is precisely this that Ouyang Shuo will focus on Mengding County and Tengyue County. As long as Bai Qi's "Black Chess" plan can be implemented smoothly, Shanhai City will have a great chance of winning.

The first legion of the Imperial Guards, which had just been resurrected, occupies an important position in the "Black Chess" plan. Ouyang Shuo briefly told Huo Qubing about the "Black Chess" plan. The more Huo Qubing listened, the brighter his eyes became.

At the end, a series of brilliance burst out in his eyes.

Huo Qubing took a deep breath, calmed down a little, clasped his fists and said, "I understand, I obey the arrangements of the commander." A murderous intent rose in his eyes, and the target was the Allies and Allied forces who had cheated them.

The next time we meet, we have to make a good calculation.

Seeing that Huo Qubing understood, Ouyang Shuo felt relieved and finally instructed: "The soldiers of the First Legion, after all, they just experienced such a drastic change, and I am afraid that they will still be a little uncomfortable. You, the commander of the Imperial Guard, stay in the barracks during this period and assist the soldiers in the adjustment. Remember, you should meet the most difficult combat tasks in the best combat state. Of course, the best steel should be used at the most critical moment."

"promise!"

Huo Qubing solemnly gave a military salute.

Through this incident, Huo Qubing suddenly discovered that he was closer to the emperor and felt a little in front of Emperor Wu of Han.

Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly and turned around and left.

***************

Tengyue County, Tengchong City.

Members of the [Yanhuang Alliance] of Di Chen, Chunshenjun and others, the [Yanhuang Alliance] lords of the [Yunnan] represented by Qin Feng, as well as generals such as Wu Qi, Tian Dan, Lian Po and Zhang Xutuo, gathered together.

The purpose is to discuss the next military action plan.

The success of the ambush in Yongren City undoubtedly made people excited, and even Di Chen and others looked a little excited. However, the words of Wu Qi, the commander of the Allied Forces, poured a basin of cold water on everyone present.

"My dear sirs, we can't be happy too early. The main force of the Shanhai City army is still well preserved, and the offensive and defensive balance between the enemy and us has not been broken. Shanhai City suffered a secret loss and will definitely become more cautious. A lion is already difficult to deal with, and a cautious lion is even more troublesome."

"Therefore, whether the next round of plans can be successfully implemented is the key to this battle. The battle in Yongren City only opened the prelude to the war and cannot lay the foundation for the overall war. If you want to win the battle, you must be prepared to pay a greater price. Otherwise, you may be reversed by the enemy at any time."

When Wu Qi talked about "paying the price", several people in the hall looked a little strange. They were the lords of Dongchuan County, and now they are the commanders of the bare feet.

Although the city-state and the [Yanhuang Alliance] had made a promise before the war and would give them appropriate compensation, the premise of all compensation is to win the war.

Although the major media are calling each other fierce, they keep singing about Shanhaicheng. They themselves know how powerful Shanhaicheng is. As Wu Qi said, losing a guard army is not enough to turn the situation around.

In Wu Qi's words, we must be prepared for greater sacrifice.

As for whom to sacrifice?

Several former lords of Dongchuan County turned their attention to several lords of Mengding County, which was meaningful.

[Yunnan City State] was mentally prepared when negotiating with [Yanhuang Alliance]. Even with the help of [Yanhuang Alliance], it would be impossible for the city state to escape from the iron hoof of the Shanhaicheng army.

The only question is how much price it costs and who will sacrifice its interests.

As the number one lord of the city-state, Qin Feng was obviously a fool in this matter, probably because he had secretly formed a tacit understanding with Di Chen and others. Otherwise, the Allies and the Allies would not have teleported to Tengchong City.

After all, Mengding County is the main battlefield preset by both sides.

Obviously, Qin Feng's idea changed in this matter.

When several lords of Mengding County saw this, their expressions became a little ugly, and some lords' eyes were already unstable. They knew what the greater price in Wu Qi's mouth meant.

After Dongchuan County, Mengding County is probably going to become the next victim.

[Yanhuang League] But with a good plan, Dongchuan County was cheated by Shanhai City, but Jianxia City picked up a ready-made bargain.

I just don’t know what tricks they are going to play in Mengding County.

But no matter what the trick is, it will not be good news for the lords of Mengding County.

Sure enough, when Wu Qi revealed his combat plan, the faces of several lords of Mengding County immediately turned pale, like a group of poor insects, abandoned by the team and threw them into the wilderness.

The closed conference hall blew a cold wind for no reason, and it was chilly.

***************

The next week, the battlefield in Yunnan seemed a bit dull.

The left-road army led by Bai Qi was not progressing smoothly. Although the main forces of the Allied forces and the coalition were concentrated in Tengyue County, they did not completely give up on Mengding County.

In addition to the local garrisons, there are also coalition forces in each city to reinforce.

What's even more annoying is that according to the combat plan formulated by Wu Qi, each territory concentrated all the armed forces in the main city and affiliated cities before Bai Qi's army arrived and unified the organization.

This armed force not only includes the territory defenders, but also local troops, and even guards recruited by yamen runners, chambers of commerce, aristocratic families, students from martial arts schools, wandering swordsmen in the territory, etc.

In Wu Qi's words, no one who has the power to fight can be let go.

Not only that, the territory also issued a temporary recruitment order, summoning young and middle-aged people in the territory, distributing weapons and equipment to them, and forming a militia team.

Other labor forces were also recruited to assist the army in defending the city.

To sum up Wu Qi's plan in one sentence, it is to "all the people are soldiers and fight to the end."

This is really terrifying.

Every time the left-road army captured a city, it had to work hard. The enemy always took advantage of the convenience of defending the city to effectively kill the left-road army as much as possible.

That attitude is really insidious.

In addition to frontal attacks, there were also a large number of guerrillas rioting on the grain transport team, which was really miserable.

After fighting along the way, the left army suffered heavy losses.

In desperation, Bai Qi could only transfer the Third Legion of the Leopard Army, which was the reserve force, to the front line for reinforcement. This was the only way to slightly speed up the attack speed.

Even so, the progress was far worse than expected, and there were heavy casualties. In one week, the left army killed more than 30,000 soldiers. In this way, only half of Mengding County was captured.
Chapter completed!
