Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 867: The Army Borrows Food, the Decisive Battle is Imminent

I noticed that their mood was starting to change.

Mu Liuming frowned slightly. Knowing he was in the wrong, he immediately rebuked several of his men who had taken action:

"Don't do anything, just talk it over."

The army of any dynasty dared not owe military pay or withhold rations from soldiers on the front line.

All that can be given must be given.

The troops on the front line are people who hang their heads on their belts and may die on the battlefield one day.

They are fearless. Even if they face Mu Liuming, they will come and question him if he dares to starve them.

In fact, these people would not be so unrestrained if they were all Mu Liuming's personal soldiers.

If they dared to say such things, not only the guards around Mu Liuming, but even the other soldiers in the army would directly persuade them to leave.

However, the number of these people is really too large, a full 100,000.

Among them are many soldiers recruited from other troops, so it is certain that they are difficult to manage.

Therefore, when facing his subordinates, Mu Liuming suppressed his temper and walked up to them with a sincere tone.

"Everyone, things have been quite difficult lately. I have reduced your patrol duties."

"Besides that, we didn't ask everyone to continue with their training missions, so that we could have a good rest."

"The supplies you're worried about will definitely arrive in the next few days. I've received news from His Highness, and I hope everyone can rest assured. We'll get through this difficult time together."

As a general of the three armies, Mu Liuming was able to suppress his temper and explain to them personally.

It's already very respectful.

After receiving his response, the several soldiers who were making trouble finally calmed down.

Although the promise had been made, the solemn expression on Mu Liuming's face did not fade after he dismissed them.

He returned to the tent and stood quietly beside the marching map.

He just lied.

Given the distance between the Shenmu Kingdom and the Western Regions, the speed of transporting such a large amount of heavy supplies would be very slow.

Plus the obstruction of wind and snow.

It's a joke to deliver these words so quickly.

Fortunately, they are about to meet up with the Western Region Allied Forces.

After thinking it over, he turned to his men and said:

"Go prepare a fast horse. I want to go to Qian Wanli in person."

"Qian Wanli? General, if you have anything to say, you can just call him over. Why should we condescend to him?"

In the eyes of Mu Liuming's men, the Western Regions coalition is now begging for help from the Shenmu Kingdom.

Their status must be relatively high. At times like this, if people want to do something, they usually go directly to Mu Liuming's military camp.

Just like the last time Qian Wanli came to discuss with Mu Liuming, he came in person on horseback.

But now Mu Liuming is so kind as to give him face that he even lowers his status and runs into someone else's camp. This is definitely a bit degrading.

But what Mu Liuming said next stunned everyone.

"I'm going to request a batch of supplies. Do I have to ask them to come and deliver them in person?"

Hearing this, they quickly asked:

"General, can't our supplies be delivered?"

"It's definitely not going to be delivered in the next two days. I need to borrow some supplies. Otherwise, our barracks will have no food in three days."

"This……"

Everyone was silent.

Soon they prepared a horse for Mu Liuming, and Mu Liuming rode a fast horse, crossed the border area between the two armies and quickly arrived at Qian Wanli's camp.

Outside the camp of the Western Region Allied Forces, many patrol troops had already discovered the approach of the Shenmu Kingdom's troops.

As soon as he arrived outside the military camp, Mu Liuming was stopped. They asked curiously:

"May I ask which general of the Shenmu Kingdom you are, and what brings you to our Western Regions coalition camp?"

"My name is Mu Liuming. Could you please let them know that I'm here to see Qian Wanli?"

Mu Liuming has a very good attitude and is very humble.

When they heard this, everyone around was stunned.

"Mu Liuming?"

"The general of the Shenmu Kingdom?!"

"Are you really Mu Liuming?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

After knowing Mu Liuming's identity, everyone was shocked and rushed into the camp of the Western Region Allied Forces to find Qian Wanli and report faster. Qian Wanli also walked out of the camp.

"General Mu, why did you come here in person? You didn't even inform me when you came, and I didn't even greet you in advance."

He was also a little surprised, after all, many people knew about Mu Liuming's situation.

Although they were willing to come and help, they always acted arrogantly during the cooperation.

If they hadn't encountered any difficulties today, they would never have come to visit me.

"Let's go inside and talk first."

Mu Liuming glanced at the crowd around him and thought that it would be a bad idea to talk about this in front of so many people.

So he asked Qian Wanli to take him into the general's tent first.

As soon as he entered, Qian Wanli waved his hand and asked everyone to leave, leaving only himself and Mu Liuming in the tent.

"Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Seeing that the other party was so particular, Mu Liuming no longer concealed his feelings and slowly said:

"It's like this. We've had some problems with the transportation of supplies recently. I've already told you about the situation in Xishu. If possible, I'd like to borrow some food and fodder from you to tide us over for the time being."

After all, he wrote a letter to Mu Liuming about the reason for the battle between Hua Yunhong and Xishu.

After learning the specific situation, Mu Liuming naturally had no way to stop the fight between Hua Yunhong and Liu Qin.

Naturally, his own troops were also affected by Hua Yunhong's dispatch.

After he learned the news, he told Qian Wanli everything. Qian Wanli naturally understood their recent difficulties.

It was because I guessed that he might come here this time to ask for borrowing food and supplies.

That's why he asked everyone else to leave, just to save some face for Mu Liuming.

"I can give it to you, but the general offensive is about to begin. Can you hold on?"

It's winter now.

Continuing their war would result in a depletion of resources.

Originally, the Xiyu Lianjun army was not rich.

In addition to this protracted war, many people actually felt that they could not hold on any longer and wanted to end the battle quickly.

But at this moment, problems arose with the Shenmu Kingdom's troops.

Hua Yunhong's response was to let the Western Region coalition forces wait for reinforcements and supplies before engaging in a decisive battle with the Datong Sect.

However, this decision will cause the Western Region coalition forces to continue to be slowed down.

Qian Wanli certainly doesn't want to wait any longer. The Datong sect has recently used many means to try to prevent the two armies from converging.

However, despite the gap of hundreds of thousands of people, the alliance between the Shenmu Kingdom and the Western Regions coalition has been completed.
