Transmigration begins with archery training

"boom--"

The terrifying aftershocks, like a tsunami, erupted directly from Murong Chao, blowing away more than a dozen soldiers and turning the surrounding area several feet into a white blur.

When the snow and fog dissipated.

The soldiers then saw...

Murong Chao lay dying in the snow, blood flowing from his seven orifices, barely breathing, and it was clear he didn't have much time left to live.

One arrow!

One arrow nearly cost their commander his life!

And this arrow...

It's still a mile away!

"Hongze Camp!"

"charge--"

at the same time.

The roar of the fierce army in the distance shook the heavens and the earth. They suddenly accelerated and charged forward, their rolling murderous aura almost melting the ice and snow, and they fought towards them without any flaws.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

The soldiers of the Murong tribe had lost all will to fight and were immediately thrown into endless chaos. Countless people died from collisions and trampling, until the Hongze camp rushed into the formation and launched an extremely bloody massacre!

Half an hour later.

The city of Frost and Snow was then taken into its possession.

"Slaughter the ox!"

"Slaughter the sheep!"

"Eat and drink to your heart's content, brothers!"

"After they've eaten and drunk their fill, open the barn door and take away their rations and dried meat!"

"If anyone's horse is frostbitten or dies from exhaustion, we will directly select the strongest horse from their roster!"

"..."

Long march.

Many horses, naturally, could not withstand it.

but!

The one thing the barbarians have in abundance is warhorses!

Each tribe has a large number of fine horses!

These horses were already trained.

With Chihiro around, they can basically be put to use immediately!

supply?

The enemy is the supply line!

The journey there is more than 10,000 li, and there are scattered tribes everywhere.

How many Martial Saints are there?

And how many people can block his way!

The mutton from the grasslands is truly exceptional!

In Dasheng, chicken, pork, and even beef are available, but mutton is a rare commodity and costs more than twice as much as pork.

For the soldiers, it was also a feast, since they only ate dry rations during marches and rarely had a hot meal, let alone meat.

Inside a wooden house.

Chen Sanshi and several of his men sat down around the campfire to discuss their next move.

"Sir, our current location is here."

Xia Cong pointed to the map and said, "According to the general's plan, if we want to reach the barbarian capital as soon as possible, we must cross the Agate River, but..."

"There is a large village on the Agate River."

Chu Shixiong continued, "The main camp alone has forty to fifty thousand troops. Once we cross the river, we will be stopped. Then, the scattered tribes nearby will quickly gather here, and within a few days, we will be able to assemble a total of one hundred thousand troops. General Chen, what should we do?"

"Easy to say."

Chen Sanshi said calmly, "Why don't we just take down Yuwen Jingwen's main camp before we can encircle him?"

"This Yuwen Jingwen is a Martial Saint, a Martial Saint for many years. I'm afraid none of us can defeat him!"

Chu Shixiong emphasized, "Moreover, the 50,000 troops inside the main camp are all elites of the Yuwen tribe. How could we possibly take over the main camp and leave in a short time?"

"General Chen, I don't doubt you."

Cao Zhi added, "There's one more thing you should know: before that, we have to build a pontoon bridge to cross the Agate River, and then... there's no turning back. This is a do-or-die situation."

Three feet frozen, not a cold day.

The heavy snow came suddenly, but it was short-lived and not enough to freeze the surface of the famously turbulent Agate River. It certainly wouldn't be enough to support the weight of a person, let alone horses and weapons.

"You don't need to worry about that, I have my own arrangements."

Chen Sanshi ordered, "Tell all the brothers to get a good night's rest. We'll continue our march at dawn tomorrow!"

……

Agate River.

Dazhai.

"Snapped!"

"Trash!"

The Ninth Prince, Yuwen Xin, had just finished reading the battle report of Fengshuang City when he slammed his hand on the table in front of him, shattering it: "Fengshuang City is an important trading place for our barbarian tribe, and it's gone just like that?!"

"That Murong Chao and his men also have 15,000 men under their command, no less than the Chen family's. How could they not even hold them off for a day? Even if they could only hold them off for a day!"

"Murong Chao is one thing!"

"That Duan Zhe actually led his men and ran away!"

"What, you have no backbone at all?!"

"Hehe~ With Chen Sanshi's bravery, it's normal that he couldn't stop a good-for-nothing like Murong Chao."

Yuwen Jingwen just smiled, seemingly unsurprised: "Good nephew, don't just lose your temper. Think carefully, where do you think Hongze Camp will go next?"

"This……"

Looking at the sand table, the Ninth Prince Yuwen Xin said with a troubled expression, "I have a feeling that after Liangzhou was sealed off, the Chen family is homeless and wandering around the grasslands like headless flies, venting their anger."

"No, no."

Yuwen Jingwen patiently said, "Think about it again. How could this boy do something meaningless? Put yourself in the enemy's shoes. What would be most beneficial to Liangzhou if he did it?"

"Could it be..."

Upon hearing his uncle's reminder, Yuwen Xin suddenly realized what was going on. Then, his eyes widened in disbelief as he exclaimed, "That Chen fellow wants to march straight to Dadu and destroy the main array eye on Langjuxu Mountain?!"

"Yes."

Yuwen Jingwen said in a deep voice, "That's exactly what he's planning."

"absurd!"

Ninth Prince Yuwen Xin sneered, "He's really desperate, daring to try even this kind of method!"

"As the saying goes, a cornered beast will fight. He must have anticipated that Youzhou could not be conquered, so he chose to take a risk and fight to the death."

Yuwen Jingwen instructed, "After figuring out the enemy's intentions, take a look at the marching route of the Hongze Camp. Where will they appear next?"

"The Agate River! Here we are?!"

Yuwen Xin realized, "The shortest route to Wolf Dwelling Mountain is to cross the Agate River, and then we'll inevitably run into him. Good, he's doomed!"

"We still have 50,000 elite soldiers in our stronghold."

He began to analyze the situation logically, saying, "The enemy force is only 15,000 strong, and the main camp has you, Uncle, a martial saint, while they do not. Once the battle starts, it won't be long before reinforcements from all directions come to surround them."

"In addition, the enemy troops are exhausted from their day and night raids, while our army has been guarding the stronghold and conserving its strength. This is called 'waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out' in military books."

"With both factors combined, how could Chen Sanshi not be defeated?"

"really.

"People make mistakes when they get anxious. This applies to martial arts training, military campaigns, and Chen Sanshi is no exception!"

"Don't underestimate the enemy."

Yuwen Jingwen's face remained calm: "As the saying goes, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, let alone Chen Sanshi, who is also a tiger. Pass down the order to have all the tribes gather their troops and come here in advance."
