"What city is this?" Du Zhongxiao pointed to the map and asked Yang Wenguang on the side.

Yang Wenguang shook his head: "I don't know. It's too long. I've asked many people but I don't know their names."

Du Zhongxiao said: "Since that's the case, we won't use the city name this time, we will use the number all. Take Wushuhai City as No. 1 city, with more than ten on the west side and less than ten on the east side. All the military plans shall be based on this. We ordered the entire army to use the army number in wartime, and no other names shall be used to avoid chaos."

Yang Wenguang, Zhao Zi and Dou Shunqing crossed their hands together.

Du Zhongxiao said to Shisanlang: "The cavalry is divided into three divisions. One division is three thousand people, and sweep away the foreign tribes of Langshan. Whenever they encounter nomadic tribes, they can take their strong horses and all military weapons. They are ordered to establish a statute, and they are willing to be under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty court and are not allowed to help the enemy fight, otherwise they will be punished. Any materials collected will be given a list, and they will be intercepted by the cavalry, and the commander will be instructed. After the war, those who do not participate in the war can use the list and statute to go to each city and give them money and materials to compensate, which is considered as if they sold the horses and military weapons to the court. Those who participate in the war will be severely punished after the war!"

Shisanlang said that Du Zhongxiao had never been killed in war, and most of them were found by themselves.

Du Zhongxiao said again: "The other unit has 1,000 people swept the Heishan tribes, and the rest are on the same route as Langshan. The remaining cavalrymen are about 4,000. They follow the army and attack Wushuhai City from the middle. There is the Langshan Pass, located between the east and west departments, and they can be reached at any time."

Shisanlang said: "Where to the east and west, what if there are large groups of soldiers gathering together, what should we do to rescue Wu Tuhaihai?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "Let them go. No matter how many soldiers and horses are, they are placed around the Wuzhihai and between the Qin and Han Great Wall. Remember, as soon as Dangxiang reinforcements come, report to me immediately. In this battle, no matter how many soldiers and horses are Dangxiang, they are all fought by infantry surrounding Wuzhihai and several nearby cities. In addition to sweeping the foreign troops, another task is to block the defeated troops. The battlefield is between the Qin and Han Great Wall, about fifty miles wide in the north and south, which is wide enough. With the limitations of the Great Wall, large defeated soldiers cannot escape even if they want to run away. Just block both ends of the Great Wall."

The Qin Great Wall is located on the southern edge of Heishan and Langshan, protecting the military farms south of Yinshan. The Han Great Wall is located on the northern edge of Heishan and Langshan, serving as a base for attacking north. The two Great Walls basically circle Heishan and Langshan to form a corridor. The intersection of Langshan and Heishan is the valley road, which is one of the important roads to cross Yinshan. Wuzuhai City is located at the pass of the valley road, and cooperates with several nearby cities to guard the important roads.

The widest distance between the Qin and Han Great Walls is the valley road guarded by Wuzhihai City, one in the extreme south and the other in the extreme north, about fifty miles apart. The corridors formed by the two Great Walls in other places are not that wide, and in some places there are only one or two roads. When one end is blocked, you can only cross the Great Wall if you want to run.

Heishan and Langshan are the western edge of the Yinshan Mountains, not as steep as the eastern section, and many places can barely pass through. These two mountains are also pastures of nomadic peoples, with many foreign tribes nomadic in the mountains. The Great Wall, which has fallen and unattended, cannot stop the crowd from climbing over, but the large troops and cattle and sheep can only go to the pass, and still have a certain defensive effect.

The Heishan and Langshan, which are east-west, and the Helan Mountains to the south and north-south, are the natural defense lines for the Hedian area to prevent nomadic attacks. They are basically the same as the Yellow River flowing direction, forming a large "Ji". The Heishan Military Supervision Office is located at the upper part of the "Ji". It occupied this place, and Dangxiang no longer has the geographical advantage over the Song Dynasty.

Pointing to the map, Du Zhongxiao said to Yang Wenguang: "This time, the attack on Wushuhai City is mainly your troops. After being equipped with cavalry and artillery, your troops attack from the middle road, and follow the avenue to take Wushuhai. After getting there, they encircle it without attacking. Zhao Zi's troops attacked the East Road, and took No. 2, 3 and 5 cities, and broke through as fast as possible, and then swept the rest of the small cities and moved closer to Wushuhai. Dou Shunqing mistook the West Road and took No. 12 and 16 cities. The fastest attack on No. 12 and 16 cities, breaking No. 12 as fast as possible, sweep the small city, and then the entire army defended No. 16 City. If the Dangxiang Baima Military Supervisory Office sends troops, you must firmly defend it!"

Zhao Zi and Dou Shunqing crossed their hands and made promises.

The few that Du Zhongxiao mentioned are all larger cities used by Shangdangxiang, the Great Wall of the North and South. There are some small cities with few garrisons.

After looking at Han Qi and Shi Quanbin on the side, Du Zhongxiao said: "This time, the three routes were launched together, with Yang Wenguang as the front line commander, and Zhao Zi and Dou Shunqing were controlled by him. The matters of the three armies shall be subject to Yang Wenguang's signature and there shall be no mistakes!"

The three of them agreed. Shi Quanbin on the side said, "Maintaining, this war is important, how can I go to the front line to watch the battle?"

Du Zhongxiao nodded: "Yes. But remember, don't interfere with front-line command. All war reports will be signed and sent back by Liu Hou and Yang Wenguang. If the front-line commander does not comply with the military order, Liu Hou can be removed from his military position and will be taken over by his deputy. Liu Hou cannot interfere in command!"

Shi Quanbin bowed: "I have been with the Strategic for a long time, so I naturally know the rules in the army, so don't worry."

It is a custom for Yingtianxiang Army to use deputy commanders to supervise the military commander on the front line. Shi Quanbin knew that Du Zhongxiao would not go to the front line, so he volunteered. Deputy commanders did not participate in command, could give advice, and could not make decisions. The main responsibility was to supervise the execution of superior military orders. If the front line commander refused to implement military orders, the deputy commander could remove his command power and be represented by his subordinates according to his position, and he could not command himself. In Yingtianxiang Army, the acting army commander was the first division below, and the division was the first brigade, and so on.

The right and wrong of the right and wrong of the power of command will be discussed after the war, including the subordinate chief officer and the deputy officer at the same level, each of which will state the reasons and opinions, and will take effect immediately, and there will be no dispute during the war. The military supervisor may not be right, the commander may not be wrong, and the crime of abuse of power is serious.

Shi Quanbin trusted Yang Wenguang and believed that he had no problem and would not cause trouble, so he took the initiative to supervise the war. It was a military rule and could make military contributions, so why not do it? If something happened, he had to take the responsibility of lifting the commander. He did not have the courage to face the punishment afterwards.

After everything was arranged, Du Zhongxiao said: "After attacking, the Tiande Army had less than 2,000 troops and did not have enough reserves. This time, we must fight quickly! From Tiande Army City to Wushuhai City, it will take about 200 miles, march for two days, and go back and forth for four days. I will give you twelve days, and you must break through the city and wipe out the enemy troops in each city! This is a basic task. The reinforcements from other places will be wiped out, the greater the military achievements you make!"

The three of them crossed their hands together to promise. Shisanlang whispered: "Master, I should have followed General Yang to attack the middle lane. What should I do?"

Du Zhongxiao said: "You are our reserve team, and you are all in the middle this time! If something unexpected happens, if a large army of Dangxiang comes to attack the Tiande army, your troops must return to the rescue quickly. Stand in the city, and you will lead people to defeat the enemy from outside."

In addition to the Heishan Military Supervision Office, Dangxiang's military forces nearby were the Baima Military Supervision Office in Yanchi, Shanxi, Helan, and the other was the guards of Helan Mountain. They wanted to gather to attack the Tiande Army and would not be able to reach the city within half a month. Du Zhongxiao made such arrangements, just to defend himself.

Everything was arranged, Du Zhongxiao said to Han Qi on the side: "My husband, what else do you have to give?"

Han Qi said: "So arrange it according to this and set off in the early morning tomorrow! It is early spring now, the weather is good, you have worked harder, hurry up on the road, end the war early, and rest in time. After breaking the Heishan Military Supervisory Office, Dangxiang will inevitably gather the white horses and Helan Mountain troops, and there will be several tough battles to fight. Finally, we will conquer the Huedu and fight the Dangxiang army there. The sooner the rest, the sooner the arrangement, and the smoother it will be!"
