Chapter 478 The Army Arrives at the Deserted Capital

Liang Chongyue reached out to take the token handed over by An Yi. It turned out to be the Liaoyuan Army token. Then these 200,000 cavalry must be the cavalry maintained by Liaoyuan.

Liang Chongyue was shocked. When she went to the border with the army, her scumbag father ordered the troops from Yujing Pass to set off together, and later sent 100,000 Yunzhou troops to the border.

Now the two teams have followed my uncle to Huangdu. Yunzhou, Yujingguan, Changning and Liaoyuan are the four directions of the capital. Since ancient times, the soldiers raised in these four places have been used to protect the safety of the emperor. Now only Changning is left.

Although others didn't know, more than half of the troops were mobilized at once. If the capital was in chaos, Liang Chongyue's heart tightened and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Liang Chongyue exerted force in his hand, tightly gripping the token, not caring even though the tip of the tip pricked his palm.

As if guided by something, Liang Chongyue rode her horse forward to a position where she could see the city wall. Looking up, she saw her scumbag father and queen mother standing quietly on the high platform of the city wall, with the dragon flags beside them dancing in the wind. Seeing her suddenly appear, her scumbag father's face, which had been stern just now, suddenly showed a smile of understanding.

The moment she saw her scumbag father, Liang Chongyue's tightly clenched hands loosened a little. The scumbag father's eyes were full of expectations and trust. Although he didn't say anything, that look had already conveyed thousands of words to her ears.

Liang Chongyue smiled at her mother, and for a moment the sky and the earth lost their luster. The red sun slowly rising behind her was not as dazzling as her.

Seeing his mother smile, Liang Chongyue lightly pulled the reins, and the warhorse under him raised its front hooves, let out a long neigh, and turned in the direction she was pulling.

"set off!"

At Liang Chongyue's command, the 300,000 troops behind him quickly followed. It was thousands of kilometers from the capital to Huangdu. Liang Chongyue had a map prepared by the system long ago, so he took the shortest route and finally arrived at Huangdu two months later.

Huangdu is worthy of its name. Even the capital is extremely deserted. The snow that almost reached Liang Chongyue's knees on the way north was nowhere to be seen in Huangdu. It had been cleaned up. Tents were set up on the wasteland outside the capital, almost covering all the land in Huangdu.

When Liang Chongyue arrived at the capital of Huangdu, waiting outside the city were her two uncles, Chi Rong, and several generals she had never met before.

Before Liang Chongyue could even dismount, they came towards him:

"I pay my respects to the Marshal."

"Generals, please get up quickly. You have arrived first. Thank you for the hard journey."

Liang Chongyue was not only talking about the hardships along the way, but also that in her absence as the commander-in-chief, they had already cleaned up and checked the entire base. Although Huangdu was desolate, the terrain was vast, and this was not an easy task.

The hardships along the way did not diminish Liang Chongyue's nobility and majesty at all. Liang Chongyue followed his uncle into the capital of Huangdu. He saw that the capital was full of tents and was heavily guarded. The air was filled with a tense and solemn atmosphere.

"Marshal, all the people of Huangdu have been evacuated to the post-war area and settled. The Marshal's residence is in the Huangdu Garrison Mansion."

This is not the border, and the living conditions are better, so Liang Chongyue naturally has no reason to refuse.

At this time, all the generals of the garrison had already heard the news and were standing outside the gate to welcome the marshal.

They had long known that His Majesty had sent Her Royal Highness the Princess Zhenguo as the Grand Marshal of the Army to lead the troops from the capital. Half of them were from the Xiang family army. After arriving in Huangdu and hearing about what Her Royal Highness the Princess had done at the border, they had already submitted in their hearts.

The remaining half were the former garrison troops of Huangdu, and the other half were troops transferred from various places. Although I was shocked for a long time when I first learned about this, my thoughts surged like a tide.

Thinking of the many exquisite weapons and unique formations that Her Royal Highness the Princess has devoted herself to researching over the years, which have saved many soldiers from unnecessary sacrifices. Such intelligence and diligence are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

His Majesty's decree has been issued, and they can only accept it. But if they think about it carefully, with Her Royal Highness the Princess as the commander-in-chief, those powerful weapons may be able to shine even more on the battlefield, and the mysterious formations can also put the enemy into trouble.

This may not really be a bad thing. With General Daoqi in charge, they will definitely win this battle.

When Liang Chongyue led his army to Huangdu, it was just time for lunch. Liang Chongyue rested for a while and got to know all the generals and the one million troops at the dinner table.

During lunch time, Liang Chongyue did not waste a moment and asked the system to check all the generals. After confirming that there were no problems, as soon as lunch was over, Liang Chongyue began to take out the things she had prepared long ago.

The huge long table that was a dining table just now, after being wiped clean, can hold the entire topographic map of the northern border drawn by Liang Chongyue.

"You all should know about the Northern Territory delegation that came to the capital to ask for my hand in marriage on behalf of their new master. I captured them all and tortured them severely. Then, using the map of the Northern Territory in my father's possession, I drew this map. It's almost identical to the simplified map of the Northern Territory those people carried. Since you don't have a map of the Northern Territory, you might want to take a look at this one first."

The generals present had just finished their lunch and had not yet begun to digest it when they saw their princess marshal transform the dining room into the military affairs office in just a few moments.

The table where dishes, rice and wine were placed just now is now mostly occupied by a long drawing.

The generals who had just drunk two glasses of wine at the dinner table began to regret their excessive drinking when they saw the clear, precise and detailed topographic map.

They looked at each other. They didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess had just arrived in Huangdu on the first day and she was already preparing for the Northern Expedition without even taking a break.

Although they didn't drink much, they still quickly drank several cups of tea to suppress the taste of alcohol in their mouths and clear their heads, so as not to delay His Highness's orders.

Liang Chongyue saw everything they did. She didn't stop them from drinking at the dinner table just now, and now that they sobered up on their own initiative, she just pretended not to see it.

The generals standing in front of her were all capable of fighting against a hundred enemies alone on the battlefield. Each of them had survived a sea of blood and corpses. Standing on the land of Huangdu, they wanted more than anyone else to take over the northern border as soon as possible to minimize the casualties among their soldiers.

Liang Chongyue didn't ask anyone to take out the sand table. There was no time to do it bit by bit now, so he could only start making a plan based on this topographic map.

"The army is gathering in the Desolate Capital. The North must have noticed it long ago and has already made preparations in the capital closest to us. If that's the case, why not start elsewhere?"
