Chapter 453 Return
"Nonsense, the Bronze Bull King's Tent and the Scimitar King's Tent have been guarding here, how did the King of Yan's troops arrive in An County?"
In the tent, Ram's face changed drastically. Read М
This time he was responsible for attacking Yan Pass.
Although the news of Ulanba's defeat at sea reached here.
But they could not leave without Mulehong's order.
"Your Excellency, it is absolutely true that the cattle, sheep and war horses in An County were also robbed. The method of this matter is exactly the same as that of the Black Iron King's Tent." The soldier said anxiously.
Ram's face suddenly sank.
The miserable situation of the Black Iron King's Tent is now known to everyone on the grassland.
Enke died, and the cattle and sheep of the Black Iron King's Tent were basically robbed.
The Beidi people under the king's tent suffered heavy casualties under the siege of the King of Yan's cavalry, leaving only some remnants.
"Your Excellency, I must lead the troops back!"
At this time, a Beidi general shouted, looking anxious.
He was Gurtu, the great king of the Scimitar King's tent, and the An County where the incident happened was a small tribe under the Scimitar King's tent.
His eyes burst into deep hatred, and he said: "The King of Yan killed my brother, and their troops attacked my tribe again. As long as I find them, I will tear their tendons and skin them."
He was Sarge's younger brother.
The first attack on Yanguan, the King of Yan's artillery killed his brother.
After inheriting the throne of the great king, he swore revenge in front of the people of the king's tent.
He thought that the careful planning of the Northern Di would succeed this time.
His scimitar could personally cut off the head of the King of Yan.
But unexpectedly, Ulanba was attacked by a group of pirates at sea and the whole army was wiped out.
"You can't go, this must be the conspiracy of the King of Yan." Ram shouted, "No one can leave without the Khan's order."
Gurtu's face suddenly turned purple.
Gritting his teeth, he stomped his feet violently.
Although he wanted to go back immediately, he dared not disobey the Khan's order.
But just three days later, he could no longer hold on.
Another war report came, the Yan Wang troops attacked Hulu Horse Farm, killed Beidi soldiers, and robbed a large number of war horses.
Then the next day, more urgent news came, the Yan Wang troops approached Jincheng.
Upon hearing this news, neither Ram nor Gurtu could remain calm.
At present, the Beidi workshop for making artillery was in Jincheng, and the missionary captured from the Russian Kingdom was also in Jincheng.
And Jincheng was defended by only two thousand soldiers.
Most importantly, many relatives of the generals of the Scimitar King's Tent were in Jincheng.
If Jincheng was captured, they would suffer heavy losses.
"Even if the Khan wants to punish me in the future, I must go back." Gurtu left Ram's tent with a word.
Ram opened his mouth and said nothing.
Even if his king's tent encountered such a thing, he could not deal with it calmly.
Not long after, the soldiers of the Scimitar King's Tent began to move out of the camp and head north.
...
Yanguan.
The movements of the Northern Di camp were reported to Zhao Xu immediately.
Zhao Xu immediately climbed up the city wall to observe.
After confirming that one of the king's tents had gone north, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Bai Shang and Zhou Yi have already made a fuss in Ningjindusi, not bad, not bad." Zhao Xu smiled.
Mo Yu looked at the only remaining Northern Di king's tent, his eyes flashing.
He said: "Your Highness, as long as General Chang leads the troops back, we can definitely win with 100,000 against 100,000."
Zhao Xu nodded.
In fact, he may not be unable to win against two kings at the same time.
But in this way, a considerable proportion of casualties will inevitably be paid.
So many young and strong men sacrificed on the battlefield will be a heavy blow to the four northern counties.
After all, young and strong men are not available as many as you want.
Moreover, retraining the troops will also take a lot of time, manpower and material resources.
Therefore, his current concept of fighting is to minimize his own casualties.
There is no way.
In fact, war consumes resources.
These resources include population, land, minerals, wealth, etc.
A small country may win a war, but that war will basically exhaust its wealth.
A big country may lose once, but it is not afraid of losing. It will eventually wear out the small country after fighting once or twice.
If the four northern counties are compared to a small country, then these are also his shortcomings at the moment.
He can still make up for wealth through trade, and the mines can still be purchased from Dasong.
But population resources are not something that can be grabbed casually.
That is why he tried every means to introduce population to the four northern counties.
This time, he dealt with the Yuan family for this purpose.
As the two were talking, suddenly a cavalryman climbed up the city wall and knelt on one knee, "Your Highness, General Chang Wei has returned with his troops, and it is still thirty miles away from Yanguan."
Zhao Xu heard it and smiled. It was really a case of talking about Cao Cao and Cao Cao would come.
Speaking of which, Chang Wei has been leading his troops south for five or six days.
Facing the three southern counties without any resistance, it is time to finish the job.
In the afternoon, a trace of smoke appeared on the official road south of Yanguan.
Chang Wei is back.
There were countless people accompanying Chang Wei.
These people brought their families and carried bags on their backs.
Although they were tired, they all had a new look in their eyes and looked at Yanguan curiously.
At the same time, there were baggage carts following behind the team.
These baggage carts were loaded with gold, silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, as well as food, cloth and other items.
"Your Highness, this time I have plundered the entire Southern Three Counties. Even if Yuan Li comes back, I am afraid he will be in tears." Seeing Zhao Xu, Chang Wei laughed.
"Well, you did a good job. You must have some bandit spirit. The enemies you will face in the future may be more fierce and cruel than the Northern Di people. You can't be gentle and refined." Zhao Xu patted Chang Wei's shoulder heavily.
This time he raided the Northern Di and robbed the Southern Three Counties to temper the bandit spirit of the royal palace's personal army.
Barbarians are barbarians. It is useless to reason with them.
Only when they are beaten to a chill in their hearts will they be honest, put down their bows and arrows and scimitars, and become good at singing and dancing.
Now, he is like this to the Northern Di, and he will do the same to the Western powers in this world in the future.
Hehehe laughed twice, and Chang Wei looked expectant, "Your Highness, how are Bai Shang and Zhou Yi?"
"It's done. Now there is only one king's tent outside Yanguan. I will wait for you to come back and formally challenge them." Zhao Xu said.
If Zhongli is successful, he should be arriving in Xiancheng soon.
It is time to make more noise in the east to put pressure on Mule Hongzhen.
If his plan of east-west dual-machine can succeed this time.
In this contest with Beidi, at least the victory and defeat will be 50-50, and he will not lose too badly.
But it all depends on Mule Hongzhen.
If he insists on slaughtering the remaining soldiers in Xiancheng, Dasong will lose this time.
While he was thinking, Zhongli was leading the soldiers to cut trees in a forest 20 miles away from Xiancheng in Qinzhou.
Here, they are going to build a launch point for hot air balloons.
