Become a feudal king from today

"That's right, since we can't escape, let's fight to the death. Even if we in Nanliang are annihilated, we are still willing to drag King Yan into the quagmire of war to buy you time." Dou Wei looked at Ashur, Iron Wood Tower and Orsky.

His words were naturally meant to show loyalty.

Ashur's army was stationed in Yiyang, which already frightened him.

When Temuta arrived with another 300,000 troops, he felt even more like he was standing on the edge of a knife.

Because as long as Beidi is willing, Nanliang can be destroyed at any time.

In order to keep Nanliang alive, he could only show Ashur and Temuta that he was a loyal dog.

In this way, the war was won, Beidi thought of their loyalty, and Nanliang could continue to exist proudly.

If they lose, they can flee to Beidi or even Rus Country without losing their wealth and life.

"Hahaha..." Dou Wei's statement made the three Ashurs feel comfortable.

Orsky also put away his doubts and said: "If the people in Nanliang have such will, maybe they can fight against King Yan."

After that, he looked to the north and said, "King Yan's army has left Jiameng Pass. It's time for us to bump fists with them."

He was well aware of the power of King Yan's army, but he also knew that King Yan posed a huge threat to the Rus' Kingdom.

Especially the far north they just acquired.

If this King of Yan is allowed to grow.

Beidi will die, the Far North will be lost, and even the entire east of the Ural Mountains will no longer be safe.

If this day happens.

The territory of Russia will be reduced by 70%.

This is something they absolutely cannot tolerate.

"Let them continue to go deeper, and when they reach Mian County, we will teach them a severe lesson." Ashur said.

Mianjun is the northern gateway of Yiyang, only 200 miles away from Yiyang and 300 miles away from Jiameng Pass.

Under their strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, King Yan's army had no access to the village and no store, and was unable to obtain any supplies locally.

Even if you want to return to Jiameng Pass, it will take three days of journey.

is the optimal distance for cavalry to attack them.

After all, the scope of their efforts to fortify their walls and clear the country is north of Yiyang.

If the Yan army arrives near Yiyang, the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country will fail.

After the matter was agreed upon, everyone acted independently.

Tiemuta returned to the army, rectified the cavalry, and formulated with the generals the tactics of attacking the grain road during the Battle of Mian County.

Ashur led his infantry and cavalry to Mian County.

After King Yan's army left Jiameng Pass, some of their soldiers went to Mian County in advance to dig trenches and fortifications at key roads and bridges.

In addition to Mian County, they also dug many fortifications on the way to Yiyang.

When one fortification was breached, they would retreat to the next fortification and resist step by step.

This time he led the remaining troops and went over with the Nanliang and Nanping troops.

It is to rely on these trench fortifications to block King Yan's army.

While they were responsible for frontal blocking, Tiemu Tower was responsible for surprise attacks.

In addition, Orsky will command 5,000 Russian troops and more than 20,000 elite soldiers who are equipped with front-loaded rifles, and cooperate with Ironwood Tower to also conduct surprise attacks.

Try to annihilate King Yan's troops before they arrive in Yiyang.

…

At the same time, Dongbao County.

The royal army and the Qin army continued on the official road intermittently for more than thirty miles.

In order to facilitate combat, Zhao Xu ordered the soldiers to march as a unit.

When marching between each army, they should be separated by one hundred meters.

Chariots were distributed on both sides of the soldiers, and scout horses were deployed nearby for reconnaissance.

If you encounter the Beidi cavalry, you can immediately rely on your chariot to shoot the Beidi cavalry.

"Your Highness, ahead is Dongbao County. After passing Dongbao County, we will reach Mian County two hundred miles away."

Zhao Xu and Chang Wei are at the forefront of the team.

Seeing the outline of a city appearing in front of him, Chang Wei pointed forward and said.

"Let the soldiers rest and eat when they arrive at the county seat." Zhao Xu looked at the sun in the sky, it was noon.

Along the way, apart from the burned-down huts and deserted fields, they didn't see even a single shadow of an enemy soldier.

It's like a no man's land.

If he didn't have full confidence in the army under his command, he really wouldn't dare to let the army go deep here alone.

Otherwise, once there is a problem with food and grass, the retreat will be cut off by the Beidi cavalry.

Fifty thousand Qin troops and 120,000 royal troops will die here.

Not long after, the army entered Dongbao City and began to take out grain from the tanks and bury pots to make rice.

Zhao Xu simply ate a few bites of fried noodles, drank a few mouthfuls of water, and then climbed up the city wall with Chang Wei to observe the surrounding terrain.

The soldiers saw this scene and showed discouraged smiles.

Since arriving at Jiameng Pass, King Yan has eaten the same food as him.

Sometimes, to save trouble, King Yan even ate worse than them.

For example, now, they were about to eat hot rice porridge, but King Yan took a few bites of fried noodles.

"Leave two thousand soldiers to guard Dongbao City and lay mines around it. Remember to mark it well to avoid blowing up your own people." Zhao Xu said to Chang Wei.

Starting from Jiameng Pass, Dongbao City was the second county town they encountered.

He left a thousand soldiers to guard the first county seat.

Here he decided to leave two thousand soldiers to guard it.

Continuing forward, when encountering other cities, he still wants to control this empty city in his own hands.

The reason is simple, double protection.

Although he believed that chariots alone could offset the disadvantages of strong walls and clear fields.

But in order to prevent the food and grass from encountering accidents, he still had to stockpile some food and grass in the cities along the road for emergencies.

Therefore, when the army marches in front, the civilians behind will continue to transport grain and grass to these cities.

Until they encountered each other's army.

"Yes, Your Highness." Chang Wei responded, and immediately arranged for the generals to be stationed in Dongbao City.

Had lunch.

The army rested briefly and then continued to set off.

After another two days of trekking, they took control of a county town a hundred miles away from Mian City, and then entered Mian County.

At this time, the detective in charge of the investigation frequently reported the discovery of Beidi scouts.

The atmosphere of war instantly became intense.

Just then, a cavalryman responsible for reconnaissance returned and delivered a letter.

There is a flame symbol on this letter, which is obviously information sent from the Fourth Academy.

After opening the letter, Zhao Xu glanced at the contents, pursed his lips, and then laughed twice disdainfully.

In the letter, the Fourth Courtyard mentioned the arrival of Ironwood Tower, Fan Xinglun and five thousand soldiers from the Rus Kingdom.

Chefs' "Wait and see." is here.

"That's good. This saves me from having to deal with them one by one. This time I will deal with them together." Zhao Xu handed the letter to Chang Wei.

Chang Wei saw it and sneered twice.

In his eyes, the five thousand Russian army was not even a meal.

As for Nanping Kingdom and Tiemuta, they are just wasting more bullets and will not fundamentally change the situation of the battle.

"Prepare for war!" Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes.

Since the other party came prepared, he would use blood and fire to give them a cruel reality.
