Inside the tent, the lights were bright and the atmosphere was solemn.

Arughun's decision was recognized by everyone.

The generals nodded one after another, realizing that calmness and rationality at this moment were the key to turning the situation around.

"Prepare fast horses immediately. I want to meet the Khan tonight." There was unquestionable determination in Alugu's voice.

Time is running out, and every moment of delay may put Beidi into a more passive situation.

At the same time, in the Chen military camp, Su Jinru and General Si Lie obtained the confession of the Beidi spy.

They are further improving their defenses based on clues provided by captured spies.

They realized that although they had successfully thwarted Beidi's actions this time, Beidi would not give up easily and they would definitely have follow-up actions.

"Your Highness, we must be vigilant about Beidi's next move." General Si Lie frowned and analyzed the battle situation.

"The fact that they are so interested in the arsenal suggests they are preparing for a large-scale campaign."

Su Jinru nodded in agreement.

"Yes, we must strengthen training and boost morale. At the same time, we must also speed up the production of weapons to ensure we have an absolute advantage on the battlefield."

In the following days, the Chen State military camp was busy.

The soldiers trained day and night, while the Ministry of Works worked overtime to build weapons.

Su Jinru even personally participated in the training to boost morale and gain greater recognition from the soldiers of the State of Chen.

As for the Northern Di, after Arghun returned to the base camp, he immediately reported the situation to the Khan.

The Khan was furious after hearing this, but he also showed the calmness and decisiveness of a great leader.

He quickly summoned his advisers and generals to discuss countermeasures.

"The failure of this operation is not entirely a bad thing. It shows us the vigilance and strength of the Chen State."

The Khan's voice echoed in the tent, "But we, the Northern Di, have been the overlords of the grasslands since ancient times. How can we retreat because of a single setback?"

The ministers nodded in agreement, "The Khan is wise, and the Northern Di are brave. How can such a small setback shake them?

We should take this opportunity to adjust our strategy and strike again, and let the State of Chen experience the might of our Northern Di cavalry!"

"That's right," Arughun stepped forward, his voice steady and powerful.

"We need to strengthen intelligence gathering and understand Chen's defense layout and troop deployment.

At the same time, we use our mobility to find its weaknesses and launch precise strikes.

In addition, we must wait for news from Khurele and unite more grassland tribes to jointly attack the State of Chen."

When Khan heard this, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes and he nodded.

"Aluhun, your suggestion is very much to my liking.

In addition, we should improve the equipment and training of our troops so that every soldier can become a fierce tiger on the battlefield."

"Yes, Khan." Arghun responded.

After that, Beidi and Chen State suddenly made peace, but beneath this false peace, a bigger storm was brewing.

.....................

After a few days, the soldiers sent by General Si Lie returned.

"General, this is a joint letter from the leaders of other tribes on the grassland. They all expressed their willingness to submit to the State of Chen and jointly resist the Northern Di."

A dusty scout knelt before General Si Lie and presented the heavy letter with both hands.

In the letter, the handwriting of the tribal leaders was different, but they all revealed the same determination.

General Si Lie took the letter and began to read it.

The above not only expresses the tribes' recognition of the power of the State of Chen, but also elaborates on their helplessness and exhaustion in the face of years of invasion by the Northern Di.

To show their sincerity, they also wrote about the strength, personnel and weapons of their tribe.

"Good! This is really God's help." After reading the letter, General Si Lie's eyes flashed with excitement.

This was not just the surrender of a few tribes, but also a major change in the strategic situation of the Northern Di.

He stood up and handed the letter in his hand to Su Jinru.

"General Si, since all the tribes have agreed to unite and fight against the Northern Di.

Why don't we take them by surprise and wipe out the Northern Di in one fell swoop?"

"Your Highness, do you have any good ideas?" General Si Lie looked at Su Jinru and was very interested in her proposal.

Su Jinru smiled slightly and said confidently: "General Si, the Northern Di have always been famous for their cavalry and are good at rapid raids, but because of this, their supply lines often become a weakness.

Now, the tribes on the grassland are cooperating with us. They happen to be behind the Northern Di army. We will attack them from both sides and I believe we will soon annihilate the Northern Di army."

She walked to the map, tapped it with her slender jade finger, and continued, "First, we need to send an elite team deep into the heart of the Northern Di, unite with other tribes, and disrupt their food supply.

At the same time, our main force adopted a feint attack strategy to attract the main force of the Northern Di and keep them away from their base.

Once their supply lines are cut off, the Northern Di army will be like a tree without roots, unable to sustain a sustained battle."

General Si Lie's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he exclaimed in admiration, "Your Highness, this is a brilliant plan. It not only takes advantage of the tribe's geographical advantages, but also seizes the fatal weakness of the Northern Di.

However, this mission deep behind enemy lines is extremely dangerous and requires someone who is both reliable and intelligent and brave to carry it out."

Su Jinru pondered for a moment, his eyes firm. "I am willing to lead the troops there personally and discuss the plan with the tribal leaders to ensure it is foolproof."

General Si Lie was shocked when he heard this and tried to dissuade him: "The princess is worth a lot of money, how can you put yourself in danger? This important task should be shouldered by me and my generals."

Su Jinru shook her head slightly, her tone filled with unquestionable determination: "Don't worry, General. Although I am a woman, I have also learned martial arts.

This battle concerns the safety of the country, and I have no choice but to take part.

Furthermore, my personal presence will strengthen their resolve and allow them to feel our sincerity."

Seeing Su Jinru's firm attitude, General Si Lie no longer insisted.

He just said in a deep voice: "In this case, I will let Lin Yifeng lead the elite team and go with Her Royal Highness the Princess. He is familiar with the terrain of the grassland.

At the same time, we will closely monitor the movements of the Northern Di people and launch a general attack once the time is right."

Su Jinru nodded in agreement. Lin Yifeng was thoughtful and it would be more convenient to act with him around.

As night falls, the stars dot the vast grassland, and the elite team led by Su Jinru and Lin Yifeng sets out quietly.

They were dressed in light night clothes, and the sound of their horses' hooves was light as they shuttled through the night like ghosts, galloping towards the tribal group behind the Beidi.

On the way, Lin Yifeng relied on his familiarity with the grassland terrain to avoid the sight of the Beidi patrol team many times and ensure the safety of the team.

Su Jinru discussed details and adjusted strategies with Lin Yifeng from time to time. Her calmness and decisiveness made everyone in the team feel at ease.

After several days of arduous journey, they finally arrived at the tribe.

When the leaders of each tribe saw Su Jinru coming in person, they were surprised and moved, and immediately summoned the warriors in the tribe to discuss countermeasures.

Su Jinru elaborated on her plan in detail and promised to provide the tribe with sufficient material assistance to jointly attack the Beidi.

After hearing this, the tribal leaders expressed their willingness to cooperate fully and fight against the Northern Di together.

"Your Highness, after your Chen Kingdom's envoys left, Beidi's envoys also arrived here and asked us to form an alliance with them.

Of course, since we have surrendered to the State of Chen, we will definitely not form an alliance with the Northern Di.

Those Northern Di envoys are currently being held in the sheepfold, awaiting the princess's decision."

An elderly tribal leader stepped forward.

Su Jinru's heart moved when she heard this.

"Thank you all for your trust, leaders," Su Jinru's voice was gentle but powerful.

"Then take me to see these Beidi envoys."
