Suo Chao was in a good mood today. His studies had come to a temporary end. Over the past six months, his 5000 new recruits and the troops from the north had been well trained, with new weapons and new types of troops. We could now begin to address the stubborn Xianbei problem.

However, in recent years, Suo Chao's fortune in treasure hunting has been very bad, and he has rarely found anything good. Although ordinary treasure maps are useless, Suo Chao activates the Eye of Truth every day and automatically digs for ordinary treasure spots within a radius of 100 miles.

[Congratulations to the host! Opened the ordinary treasure map and obtained 1000 stones of sweet potato seeds.]

Congratulations! Host! Opened the normal treasure map. 1000 potato seeds:

"Hey, these two high-yield crops are pretty good. One stone was equal to 120 jin in ancient times, which converts to about 30 kilograms in today's weight unit."

"Hey, how come this last ordinary treasure map is thousands of kilometers away?"

"Forget it. This is the first time I've encountered this. Treasure maps can be accumulated anyway. I can dig for them when I have the chance in the future."

Suo Chao submitted a request for early graduation to the dean. After two deans assessed him, Suo Chao successfully graduated from Beiwu College. He said goodbye to the three deans and his newfound friends.

"Gongyi, I heard that Shu is a dangerous place. Is this true?"

"The road to Shu is quite difficult. I wonder what Brother Boyi wants to do?"

"Brother Gongyi's spearmanship is superb, and his future achievements are limitless. When I return to Shu someday, I'd like to visit your house and ask for a drink."

"Haha, welcome."

"Brother Zilong! I'm leaving the academy today! If there's a chance in the future, let's get together again."

"Okay, Brother Boyi. My brother misses you too. If you come, we'll be happy to welcome you anytime."

"Haha. Brother Zilong, that's what I'll say. Goodbye."

Suo Chao bid farewell to the three future spear masters. Not long after, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun joined Beiwu Academy. Madam Feng Ru became the new instructor. Suo Chao only learned of this upon returning to Beiwu Academy. In short, Beiwu Academy, blessed with beautiful scenery and talented individuals, was a mysterious and powerful place.

......

Beidi County, the prefectural government office.

In early November.

General Huangfu sat firmly in the center of the hall, like a stalking lion, imposing and majestic. Suo Chao and the other generals from Beidi Commandery sat on either side, like stars surrounding the moon, a majestic presence. Today was a crucial day for discussing the campaign against the Xianbei. Everyone was solemn and on guard. The spirited General Huangfu spoke.

"Dear generals. Welcome to come from afar."

"We, from the eight northern counties, have sent a total of 10 troops. His Majesty has approved our operation."

"The troops are scheduled to be dispatched after the 20th. What are your thoughts, generals?"

"Old General, we will listen to you."

"Yes! Old General. You are highly respected and we are all your juniors."

"Okay, Boyi, I'll leave it to you from now on."

Following the old general's gaze, everyone looked up at Suo Chao. This young general, barely twelve years old, had already experienced countless battles, his expression radiating determination and courage. Despite his small stature, he exuded a formidable aura, as if born for the battlefield. They had heard of Suo Chao before, but seeing him in person was awe-inspiring. The generals were all astonished by his extraordinary talent.

Suo Chao groaned a few times, and a thunder-like sound exploded in the air.

"Generals, the date for the expedition has been set. We still have some things to do."

"We have many Xianbei spies in the north. I hope you can remove them to prevent us from being trapped both internally and externally."

"These are the intelligence we have collected. Generals, please treat this matter with caution."

"Okay, General Suo. We will definitely handle this matter properly..."

Suo Chao then opened the map and arranged the troops from the eight counties. Fearing word of the plan would leak out, he and General Huangfu split their forces. Suo Chao led the light cavalry two days ahead. General Huangfu, with 2 heavy cavalry and 5000 spearmen, joined the troops from the other seven counties to gather in the rear, providing support and transporting food and fodder.

Before the army moves, food and fodder must go first. The food, drink, and defecation costs of a hundred thousand men and women are astronomical. The money spent on food and rations is a bottomless pit. Suo Chao, helpless, resorted to using a few of his money-making gadgets: crystal-clear glass, clean, refreshing soap, and durable cement production technology. He hoped these "magic weapons" would help him profit and march with the others.

Emperor Ling of Han naturally understood this matter tacitly. As long as his own money was not used and his subordinates did not rebel, then sending troops would not be that troublesome.

The news of the Han army's mobilization did not escape the Xianbei's attention. Upon receiving this news, Tan Shihuai quickly assembled 300,000 Xianbei troops from various tribes, intending to encircle and destroy the 100,000 Han troops under General Huangfu.

In the Xianbei king's tent.

Tan Shihuai sat firmly on the throne, and a mighty and domineering command sounded.

"Send a message to the Tuoba Xianbei tribe"

"Send the message to the Ministry of Machinery"

"Messenger to the Suli Tribe"

"Messenger of the Michail Tribe"

"Tell them to march out immediately and join forces with my 10 troops to wipe out the Han army without a single survivor."

"Yes, Khan."

Tan Shihuai's army consisted of 2.5 men, led by Prince Helian, Wangsun Kuitou, Budugen, and Fuluohan. Each had 5 men under their command, and together with Queji's army of 15, they formed a cavalry of men and charged straight at Huangfu Song.

On the vast grasslands, light cavalrymen carried swords on their waists and bows and arrow tubes on their shoulders. Suo Chao activated the Eye of Truth and knew the movements of the Xianbei army within a radius of 100 miles. Suo Chao used his information advantage to avoid Xianbei detection during the march.

"Report to the general, the Xianbei have assembled 30 troops and are marching towards General Huangfu. The Xianbei vanguard of 15 troops is already facing General Huangfu in the eastern desert."

"The Tuoba tribe in the south of the desert has already mobilized 5 troops; and there are Xianbei troops on their way to the east of the desert."

"It's extremely urgent. The old general is seeking urgent assistance."

Suo Chao pulled out a map and carefully analyzed the movements of the 30 Xianbei troops. The goal of this operation was to capture the headquarters of the Tuoba clan's Tanshihuai leader. However, the situation was critical, and his troops were relatively close to the Tuoba Xianbei. He had to first defeat the Tuoba's troops, halting their advance and relieving the old general's pressing need.

"Please reply, old general. I will first hold off the 50,000 troops of the Tuoba tribe."

"promise!"

As for the 10 troops from the Suli and Mijia tribes to the northeast, the journey was quite long. Suo Chao planned to first defeat the Tuoba tribe, then take on the Suli's 10-man allied force. He calculated the distances of the two tribes and concluded they would make it in time. Suo Chao ordered his men to march quickly, cutting off the Tuoba's route. Taking advantage of the True Eye's information gap of a hundred miles, Suo Chao arrived at the attack point in advance and set up his battle formation.
