Your fiefdom gains one soldier every second, what should you do, Queen Mother?

Chapter 88: Preparing for the Battle with the Nagor Tribe

Cao Mengyi held the hilt of his sword tightly. He stared at Zhang Liang and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean, sir?"

"My army has been traveling all night without rest, and we don't have enough food and fodder. We will soon run out of food."

"Your Excellency asked us to rush to Jiarong Pass. Do you want to let the army starve to death on the way?"

Zhang Liang was silent for a moment, and then said casually: "If the general wants food and grass, he can meet our team transporting food and grass by heading north now."

"If the general wants to let the army rest, Liaoxi City is not far ahead."

Cao Mengyi was furious: "Don't tell me that we are not allowed to enter Longxi City? What power do you, a small strategist, have?"

"My master said that when he is not in Xiliang, I have the right to decide all matters."

"Once you arrive in Xiliang, you will be in the territory of the Marquis of Zhenxi. If the general has any objections, feel free to complain to my master."

Cao Mengyi restrained his emotions that were about to explode. He didn't know how many of Ying Xuanze's troops were in Longxi City.

If something goes wrong and someone escapes and reports to Ying Xuanze, their plan will be in vain.

Although he was angry, Cao Mengyi chose to vent his anger on Ying Xuanze.

As long as this boy dies, these people in Longxi City and other people in the Ying family will also die!

Cao Mengyi calmed down and said to Zhang Liang calmly, "Since that's the case, I won't stay any longer."

"Let's go to Liaoxi City!" He gave orders to the army.

Soon, the 100,000-strong army marched towards Liaoxi City. At the same time, Zhang Fei also climbed up to the city wall again.

"Military Advisor, are they just leaving like this?"

"They have a mission to accomplish, and they came with an imperial decree, so naturally they won't waste too much time with us."

Zhang Liang looked at the 100,000 Yinglong troops and continued, "Just now the general said that they didn't bring much food and grass with them. They must be going to Longxi City to ask Wang Yuan for it."

"But he never expected that Wang Yuan was killed by us. All the food and fodder are in our hands, and only some are on the way to Jiarong Pass."

"Seeing that he chose to compromise, I think he has a corresponding strategy." When Zhang Liang said this, his face became a little solemn.

"Have the scouts set out?" He suddenly turned his head and asked Zhang Fei.

"Let's go, riding the fastest warhorse."

"Okay, the rest depends on how the lord responds."

Zhang Liang looked towards the north, which was the direction of Jiarong Pass...

......

Huo Qubing rushed back to Jiarong Pass with dozens of Zhao cavalrymen and several Beihu people. At this moment, tens of thousands of troops were gathered at Jiarong Pass, and all they could see were Wei Wuzu and Zhao cavalrymen.

After seeing Ying Xuanze, Huo Qubing quickly got off his horse, walked up to him and bowed, saying, "My lord, we discovered the Nagor tribe's front camp during our investigation! A rough estimate is that there are 20,000 people."

Ying Xuanze nodded slightly, then signaled Huo Qubing to return to the team.

After several days of investigation and combining the information collected from the Hu people of the Tu tribe, it was found that there were three powerful tribes in the entire grassland.

One of the tribes was the Tu tribe that had just been destroyed, and the other two were tribes that split from the Pasu family, one called the Nagor tribe and the other called the Luge tribe.

More than ten years ago, the Tu clan was the strongest and closer to the border of Daying.

Therefore, the Tu tribe repeatedly invaded the border of Daying, especially the towns near Jiarong Pass, which were all attacked by the Tu tribe and suffered severe damage.

Later, Ying Tianqian led 300,000 Tiger Guards to severely damage the Tu clan. The Tu clan was unable to recover and became the lowest among the three major tribes.

However, because the three tribes are far apart, and the location and environment of the Nagor tribe and the Luge tribe are better than that of the Tu tribe.

Therefore, these two major tribes rarely invaded other border areas of Daying. Otherwise, if the three major tribes invaded Daying at the same time, they would have led their troops into Daying's territory and officially declared war on Daying.

However, Ying Xuanze learned a piece of news from the Hu people, that is, the harvests of the Nagor tribe and the Luge tribe have been poor year by year, and they have been ready to attack the other two border passes of Daying in the past two years.

It is for this reason that Ying Xuanze plans to annihilate these two tribes before they invade the border. Otherwise, once the battle line is extended, it will become extremely difficult for him to annihilate this group of Northern Hu people.

But the most important thing is that annihilating the Hu people can increase your points.

Just destroying the weakest Tu tribe can give him a 10-second points increase and a lot of rewards. It is conceivable how rich the rewards will be if the more powerful Nagor tribe and Luge tribe are destroyed.

According to Huo Qubing's investigation, the Nagor tribe had an army of 160,000 to 170,000, which was quite strong!

The Lu Ge tribe, which has the same strength as it, would only be slightly different. The Hu people even said that Lu Ge's tribe might be stronger. It was just because the distance was too far that they were unable to find out any specific information.

It is precisely because the distance is too far that Ying Xuanze does not have to worry about attracting the army of the Luge tribe when he is destroying the Nagor tribe.

But Ying Xuanze knew that if the war dragged on too long, the Luge tribe would most likely know that the Nagor tribe was under attack.

Although the two major tribes became enemies because of a split in the Pasu family, the hostility between the same ethnic groups was only temporary, and the Han people were the eternal enemies of the Hu people.

He must attack the Nagor tribe as quickly as possible. As long as he captures the tribe, his points will be greatly increased.

At that time, even if the Luge tribe came with a large army, even if the Luge tribe was stronger than the Nagor tribe, it would not matter.

His points are increasing every moment. As long as there is enough time, his troops will become stronger and stronger, and their numbers will increase.

Thinking of this, Ying Xuanze ordered the army to prepare to march into the Duolunna grassland.

At this moment, a scout from Longxi City rushed to Jiarong Pass. He shouted while riding his horse: "My lord! A letter from the military advisor! A letter from the military advisor!"

When Ying Xuanze heard that it was a letter from Zhang Liang, he immediately went to find the scouts.

After meeting him, the scout handed the letter in his hand to the latter. Ying Xuanze opened the letter and read its contents quickly.

When he was halfway through the letter, a hint of displeasure appeared on his face. After reading all the contents, he snorted coldly, crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it on the ground.

Seeing this, Huo Qubing hurriedly asked: "What did the military advisor say? Could it be that something happened in Gaoliu City?"

"Not really. The imperial court sent a hundred thousand troops to Jiarong Pass, saying they were there to help me fight against the northern barbarian troops."

Ying Xuanze sneered twice again, "When we attacked the Tu clan, not a single soldier from the imperial court was seen. Now that you see me annihilate tens of thousands of Hu people, you want to get a piece of the pie."
