Xiang Chenpaipai returned to Weihai City, leaving Benedict Keogh alone on the front line against the Northern Cold Kingdom.

“General, the last general will come back…” Xiang Chen reported to Li Jing on the details of the front line as soon as he returned to Weihai City.

Although Li Bao had known the results from the previous battle reports, the specific process was not detailed enough to personally report to Chen.

“Thanks to the general.” After listening, Li Bao nodded and said in praise: “This trip will allow the Ice Kingdom and the Northern Cold Kingdom to form a confrontation. The general has made great contributions to the general. After returning to the country, your majesty will definitely reward.

“The final general dare not take credit.” Xiang Chen hugged a fist and said modestly: “This is all about the generals judging the situation and commanding powerfully. The final general is just following orders.”

“Hey, I’m a little too humble to the general.” Li Bao waved his hand and said: “The war ahead requires timely decision-making. The general is just providing some support and advice in the rear.”

When Li Bao said this, he paused. He suddenly recovered and felt something was wrong. If the two of them were so polite, they would be endless.

And Xiang Chen felt the same way, so the two looked at each other in silence, and burst into laughter at the same time…

Although the two of them were modest and polite, they didn’t make a mistake. The battle situation in the front was changing all the time, and it was impossible to rely solely on Li Bao to command in the rear.

And the reason that Xiang Chen can make effective commands and decisions on the front line is based on the intelligence, materials and other support given by the rear.

On the front line, Xiang Chen has no way to obtain intelligence from other regions, nor can he assess the situation, nor can he make decisions that affect the overall situation. The reason for this is the support of Li Bao from the rear.

In other words, without the full support of the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War and other departments, Xiang Chen and his 1,500 soldiers alone would not be able to make the current confrontation between the Snow Kingdom and the Northern Cold Kingdom appear. The bureau.

The reason why Xia’s army was able to win all battles, so that the foreigners were so awe-inspiring, that the entire Xia country was an effective and rigorous system.

In the eyes of outsiders such as the Ice and Snow Kingdom, Xia’s army seemed to be omnipotent and omniscient. That’s why.

…

Li Bao and Xiang Chen waited for a while in Weihai City. They saw that although the armies of the Snow Kingdom and the Northern Cold Kingdom clashed on the western border, there was no overall victory or defeat. Which side has an overwhelming advantage. Rear.

And with the passage of time, this year’s ice and snow season is also coming. Seeing that the two countries are destined to maintain the current situation, the two decided to retreat and return to their country.

But waiting for them to report this decision to Xia Guo, what was waiting for news of their triumphant return to the country, instead waiting for a fleet full of soldiers.

“General Li and General Xiang, Your Majesty has ordered a marine brigade and a squadron of the Navy to be stationed in Hanyu City, 50 kilometers east of Ice City on Ice Island.” Jin Yiwei addressed the two of them. Yang Song’s order.

Li Bao took the order presented by Jin Yiwei with both hands, and together with Xiang Chen, he clasped his fists to the south and saluted: “Finally, I will obey the decree!”

“Haha, it’s been a long time since the two generals have seen each other.” Seeing that the two of them had finished their official business, Changsun Sheng stepped forward to greet him.

He has been back and forth between Bingxue Island and Xia Guo Zhongjing many times this year, and this time he came here with the fleet because of diplomatic matters.

“Mr. Changsun, it’s been a long time.” After Li Bao received the order, he held his fist in front of Changsun Sheng and said: “How long will it take for him to be in the North? To stay for more than half a year.”

“Well, I worry about General Li.” Changsun Sheng touched the gray beard of his chin, bowed his hand in reply, and said: “This time I went to the north for the garrison, but most of this has been done before. Now There is not much time left for the finishing touches.”

“That’s good.” Li Bao nodded, hesitated, looked around, and stepped forward and asked softly: “Mr. Changsun, why didn’t the garrison have been notified in advance? Is there something wrong?”

“So that’s it!” Changsun Sheng was puzzled by Li Bao’s actions. After learning the other party’s doubts, he laughed softly: “General Li has been overwhelmed. Before discussing the ownership of Hanyu City with the Ice and Snow Kingdom, now it’s just going. Take complete control of this city.”

After Chang Sun Sheng answered Li Bao’s question, he paused, and then said: “The previous two generals were busy in war. It is normal for some things to be unknown. Moreover, your Majesty let the navy garrison one of the ice and snow cities. There is another reason for this. Frighten the vassal and protect Daxia’s vested interests in the King of Ice and Snow.”

As for what vested interests are, Li Bao also knows, that is, Bingxue Island’s silver mining rights and the country’s tariff rights.

If there is no army of Xia Kingdom, it is inevitable that the Kingdom of Ice and Snow will make some small moves. The matter about the command of the 50,000 new army before, Li Bao is very fresh in his memory.

Chang Sun Sheng has said everything for this reason It is not good for Li Bao to continue to ask more deeply, because it would be an ultra vires if he continued to ask.

After Li Bao personally sent Changsun Sheng to Ice and Snow City, he and Xiang Chen went to Cold Fish City, 50 kilometers east of Ice and Snow City on Ice Island. And half of the Baoying brought them into Coldfish City and finished their defense.

Cold Fish City was given to Xia Guo as a gift by Queen Aisha at the time many years ago, but Xia Guo didn’t put his energy to the far north of the mainland at that time, so the time would be gone for a long time.

But now Xia Guo has set his sights on this area, then the city that was nominally Xia Guo must also be taken back, and by the way the problem of the garrison location has also been solved.

Six thousand troops are stationed in Coldfish City, which is only 50 kilometers away from the capital of the Kingdom of Ice and Snow, which is equivalent to putting a sharp war knife under the eyelids of Queen Aisha and many of her dignitaries.

At that time, who could have thought that the current situation could be in a few decades later, otherwise Queen Aisha would not pretend to be generous and give Cold Fish City to Xia Guo.

Moreover, Coldfish City still has a large-scale seaport, as long as after a certain amount of rectification, about ten warships can be stationed.

According to Yang Song’s order, the Navy’s defensive fleet will be stationed in Coldfish City with one fast battleship, two cruise ships, two destroyers, four frigates, and three supply ships, for a total of 12 battleships of various sizes.

It’s just that the current harbour of Coldfish City is just a relatively large fishing port, and there are so many warships that can’t stop at all. Therefore, before the completion of the military port transformation, only two destroyers and two frigates were stationed.

Xia Guo stationed such an army in Coldfish City, and the Frozen Kingdom could only accept the fate of being exploited honestly.
