At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

At this moment, the generals beside Koltovsky all showed a look of surprise on their faces.

"Marshal, what happened today that is worthy of your anger?"

One of the generals asked cautiously.

"Damn the Orientals! And those cunning barbarians, they occupied the city of Ketor, and we can't go back now!"

As Koltovsky spoke loudly, he handed the intelligence he had just obtained to the general.

After several generals at the scene passed it around, an expression of uncontrollable anger appeared on almost everyone's face!

"How could this happen? The Tuoba tribe? Why did they appear in Ketu City? What on earth is going on?"

"I've said it before, these cunning Orientals don't deserve our sympathy at all! We should have taken the initiative to attack and wipe out all the Oriental troops long ago!"

"We must return immediately and take Ketu City back from the Tuoba tribe. If the Easterners cut off our army's food supply, this war will probably collapse without a fight!"

"..."

The generals who had just looked puzzled now all rushed to speak.

The city of Keto holds a vital strategic position for them.

The most crucial point is that there are nearly five million dan of grain stored in the city of Keto, which is the entire source of their food supply!

"enough!"

Hearing the noisy sound coming from his ears, Koltovsky slammed the table.

"We just received intelligence yesterday that the 200,000-strong army led by Zhao Gongming will soon arrive at the Baideng Mountain area. Who among you can be his opponent?"

Koltovsky spoke again, and as he spoke, an extremely cold light flashed in his pupils, sweeping across the generals in front of him.

In the past few years, the Daliang Dynasty and the Shaqiu Dynasty seemed to have nothing to do with each other.

But in fact, the Dune Dynasty had been secretly collecting intelligence for many years.

Because of this, they are very clear about Zhao Gongming's strength.

As the governor-general of Zhili in the Daliang Dynasty, Zhao Gongming led a cavalry force of nearly 200,000 in this battle.

"Marshal, what should we do now? The Easterners have already formed a siege in the Northeast, and even Wulan City has been lost to that guy named Xia Yun."

One of the generals had a look of indignation on his face.

Their entry into the Northeast battlefield this time was extremely secretive, and they originally wanted to catch the Daliang Dynasty off guard.

But now, they have found themselves in a rather embarrassing situation.

"What's the situation with the barbarians now?"

Koltovsky asked next.

"Those barbarians are a bunch of idiots. They ran away when they saw the Daliang Dynasty's troops. According to the information reported yesterday, there are still about 350,000 barbarian troops left."

Another general immediately responded.

"The Orientals have a saying: War is the art of deception!"

"They cut off our army's food supply. Now they must think that our army is in a panic and will rush back to support Keto City as soon as possible!"

"But I won't let them have their way!"

By this time, the acne on Kortovsky's face, who was the commander-in-chief of the army, had gradually disappeared.

Instead, there was an extremely sharp light revealed in the pupils!

"Pass on my order. All troops should move out immediately and join forces with the barbarian troops! Advance quickly towards the area around Mengtu City!"

After just a few breaths, Koltovsky, who already had a plan in his mind, immediately gave the order!

……

Under the city of Montaut, with heavy rain falling from the sky, the mixed force of 150,000 barbarians and the Dune Kingdom has surrounded the entire city!

Towards the east gate, Xiao Yan and his generals climbed up the city wall.

"Your Majesty, there are still nearly 100,000 soldiers capable of fighting in the city. I suggest that our army immediately implement a strategic breakout. Otherwise, once the enemy reinforcements arrive, our army will inevitably fall into a passive situation."

When everyone's eyes turned to the densely packed troops outside the city, one of the generals immediately spoke beside Xiao Yan.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

This person is right. There are still 100,000 troops in the city, while the enemy troops under the city of Mengtu are only about 150,000.

As long as they take the initiative to break out, they will be able to break out successfully.

But if that happens, the city of Montgomery will fall back into the hands of the barbarians.

More importantly.

The enemy can surround the city of Mengtu today, and can continue to surround the city of Ji'an and the city of Changchun tomorrow!

If they retreated from Mengtuo City, the enemy would pursue them. If they kept retreating, would they have to retreat all the way to Shanhaiguan? !

"The troops must not retreat easily. There is no reinforcement in our rear. If we retreat, the enemy will be able to march straight in. If the barbarians are allowed to march all the way to Shanhaiguan, who will bear the responsibility?"

Xiao Yan hardly thought about it and even rejected the suggestion to withdraw troops.

The general who had just spoken fell silent for a moment after hearing this.

Indeed, on the surface, there are many cities behind them.

But in fact, they have no capital to retreat at all!

"Has Wulan City replied?"

Xiao Yan, with a gloomy face, immediately asked.

"In reply to your Highness, there has been no news from Wulan City yet, but the intelligence personnel sent out by our army are estimated to have arrived in Wulan City by now."

"If everything goes well, the Grand Marshal will definitely send reinforcements within the next few days."

Another lieutenant general at the scene responded immediately.

"Your Highness, according to the intelligence sent back by the spies, a large number of barbarian troops are rapidly gathering 200 kilometers north of Montuo City. According to my guess, those barbarian troops are probably coming for our Montuo City."

Then another lieutenant general spoke up.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the entire city wall was extremely depressing.

However, it was at this time.

A series of melodious trumpet sounds suddenly came from below the city of Montuo!

"Woooooo~!"

"Woooooo~!"

At the same time, along with the sound of the trumpets, there were also drum beats that shook the heavens and the earth.

"Bang bang bang!"

The barbarian troops below the city of Mengtu suddenly gathered an army of 60,000 to 70,000 in the direction of the east gate.

"Oh no, my Lord, they are about to start attacking the city!"

"A bunch of bastards who are tired of living! Your Majesty, please give the order, and I will lead my men to fight my way out of the city!"

"..."

Faced with the barbarian troops who suddenly took up an attacking posture, the generals who had just climbed onto the city wall all showed an expression of uncontrollable anger on their faces!

As the commander-in-chief of this 100,000-strong army, Xiao Yan's expression was also extremely gloomy at this moment!

"Pass on my order. All troops must immediately ascend the city wall! And mobilize all automated troops to the east gate!"

In the extremely depressing atmosphere, Xiao Yan immediately gave the order!
