Back Off, Let Me Come

This is killing a chicken with a knife!

Li Wan felt distressed when he saw it: "With Zhenguo's military strength, how can we use so many soldiers and horses? They can't recruit a few people now. If we send more than 10,000 troops, we can win it within a month..."

Do you know the daily military requirements for 30,000 soldiers and horses?

Li Wan did not dare to think about how much logistical pressure Kang Guo was facing at the moment. The military supply of 30,000 people could severely damage a country's vitality, not to mention that Kang Guo was at war last year and this year. In her opinion, it is important to save a little, and it is not easy to support a family.

Qian Yong gnawed on the dried meat: "What? Still within the month?"

Li Wandao: "An optimistic estimate."

Qian Yong chewed and swallowed in several mouthfuls, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.

"If we provide tens of thousands of people to go out to conquer the Zheng Kingdom for a few months, I'm afraid that the Yushitai can embezzle our free wages. Instead of delaying and giving them time to react, it's better to be ruthless and bring more troops and solve the battle in twos and twos. Tens of thousands It is much more economical to feed a person for a few days than to feed tens of thousands of people for a month. We need to be able to settle accounts. After all, what we teach in the academy is dead. We need to be smarter in fighting. "

Li Wan looks very smart, why can't he even settle this account?

"How many days?"

Qian Yong used martial energy to create a fine needle to pick his teeth, and said very casually: "To be precise, it is three days. I have specially issued a military order. If it cannot be achieved, military law will be dealt with. The time starts from the time when the troops and horses are mobilized. Three days It’s very economical to feed ten thousand people for three days.”

Li Wan: "..."

Qian Yong said proudly: "You don't know, my lord originally planned to allocate 60,000 elites to me, but that's 60,000 elites. We can even attack the Northern Desert. But I have calculated a score and feel There is no need to push 60,000.”

The effect of 30,000 and 60,000 is almost the same, both are pushed equally.

At most 60,000 square meters will be faster.

Why did Qian Yong refuse?

Because 30,000 and 60,000 march at the same speed!

It takes three days to fight for 30,000 yuan, and three days for 60,000 yuan. The cost of the latter is double that of the former. Those misers in the Ministry of Household who are obsessed with money will definitely not approve the funds easily. Qian Yong didn't want to argue with Xun Zhen. Every year he pressed for military pay, which made him exhausted mentally and physically.

It’s not that Xun Zhen was so stingy that he didn’t even provide enough military pay, but that the Ministry of Household Accounts checked the accounts carefully, and he checked carefully if a few taels didn’t match up. He saw that the money was as urgent as a spark, and he wished he could pay for the few taels from his own pocket so that the military pay could be issued as soon as possible. But Xun Zhen still refused.

The people in Hube are indeed the most hateful!

Li Wan: "...three days?"

If this was possible, most of the battle would have been spent on the road, right? Time was running out, but she couldn't tell that coach Qian Yong was a little anxious, or was he confident?

Qian Yong smiled and said nothing.

Of course he has confidence!

Li Wan soon understood where Qian Yong's confidence came from. The sky was dark, and she keenly noticed that there was a place on the horizon where the light and shadow were different from other places. Immediately climb up the sentry tower and overlook the place from a high place. The naked eye can see three different-colored streams of light chasing each other.

One white, one green, one red.

Qian Yong was in high spirits: "It's finally here."

Then the Dan Mansion's martial energy was aroused, and the roar shook the sky.

Three streams of light fell almost simultaneously.

Among them, the white one is the most eye-catching.

Li Wan took a closer look and discovered that the ice and snow in the path of the stream of light opened a path, connecting the sky and the earth, with little ice crystals flying. As the white light approached, the air temperature dropped significantly, and the biting cold penetrated into the texture tyrannically, arousing goose bumps: "It's so cold."

Just when I was about to use my energy to resist this strange cold, countless green buds came out of the ground, the spring breeze blew on my face, and the warmth was intoxicating.

The one with green light stands between the red and white.

He said with a dark face: "Can you control your martial energy?"

It froze him all the way.

Caught between Yun Ce and his brother, it was like a world of ice and fire. Should he spiral forward to neutralize the two temperatures?

The young warrior, who was radiating chills all over, had a face that was not cold at all. When he heard his companions complaining, he hurriedly restrained his breath in embarrassment, and the coldness in the air dissipated a little. Qian Yong was shocked and a little envious at the same time. He stepped forward and clasped his fists to congratulate: "It's been a while, General Yun's cultivation has improved a lot."

This cultivation speed really makes people jealous.

Yun Ce smiled a little awkwardly: "Marshal, you are so complimentary."

Gong Xiqiu didn't like chatting nonsense with people he didn't know well, so he went straight to the point: "Mama asked me to come over, you decide who to hit!"

Qian Yong smiled so brightly that his wrinkles were squeezed out.

"Hahaha, don't be in a hurry."

"What are you doing? You guys came here a few days early and haven't rested enough yet?" Gong Xiqiu avoided Qian Yong's open arms, his face full of disgust, "Finish the fight early and go home early. It's been a long time." Oh, my niece won’t remember me again.”

A baby that was only a few months old didn't remember anyone at all. Gong Xiqiu finally became familiar with his niece. Mama said there was going to be a war and asked him to spare a few days to help, so he had to come. But my partner is still Yun Ce... I wonder if snakes hate low temperatures?

He didn't hate Yun Ce, but he hated Yun Ce's uncontrollable martial spirit. He could feel the martial courage totem protesting even if he got even slightly closer.

Qian Yong didn't have much dealings with Gong Xiqiu, but he also knew the other party's unruly temper, so he comforted him: "We will set off early tomorrow morning. We still have to be auspicious in the war. Tomorrow is a good day, and we have raised flags and sacrifices." Just two days to slaughter.”

Gong Xiqiu waved his hand: "Okay, call me when you get there."

Qian Yong looked at Gong Xiqiu in confusion as he yawned repeatedly. The latter almost half-closed his eyes, found an empty camp tent and fell asleep. Is this state really okay? He looked at Jimo Qiu as if asking for help, suspecting that Gong Xiqiu was deliberately trying to mess with his mentality!

Or is it that Gong Xiqiu didn't even sleep all night to take care of the children?

Jimo Qiu revealed the answer: "Too cold."

Qian Yong: "???"

Jimo Qiu said: "If it's too cold, he will feel sleepy."

Snakes need to hibernate!

Qian Yong smacked his lips: "Isn't General Gongxi a human?"

I haven't heard that the Wudan Totem can change the species of its owner. The normal change of seasons has little effect on warriors. It is not the case that the Wudan Totem will hibernate and its owner will also hibernate. If so, Gongxi Chou would have gone to a place where it is spring all year round.

Jimo Qiu looked helplessly at Yun Ce, who had an awkward and guilty smile.

The reason lies with Yun Ce.

The sudden drop in temperature is not because of the rotation of the four seasons, but because of Yun Ce's overflowing martial spirit, and Gongxi Chou has been stuck in a bottleneck recently. He has merged with the Wudan Totem at a critical moment, so he is more affected. Qian Yong nodded in understanding: "In this case, isn't it very dangerous for General Gongxi to go to the battlefield? Do you want to..."

Qian Yong wants to change people!

He has issued a military order!

If Gongxichou was forced to hibernate and his combat status declined, and the military order could not be completed, wouldn't he die unjustly?

Jimo Qiu said: "That's not necessary."

Gongxichou would be excited as long as he saw blood.

Qian Yong: "..."

The quasi-son-in-law was awakened by a noisy footsteps.

A beam of light suddenly shot into the dark tent, and the quasi-son-in-law subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes. Several soldiers entered and dragged him away without saying a word. He was panicked: "What are you doing?"

He had an ominous premonition.

This premonition reached its peak when he saw the altar.

Although Zhenguo had not fought for many years, he had seen what the expedition altar looked like, and knew the purpose of this thing.

What made him even more frightened was that he didn't see the sacrifice.

In a panic, he asked Li Wan for help.

Before he opened his mouth, he felt something blocking his throat. He couldn't utter a single syllable. He covered his throat in fear, his eyes were bloodshot, and he silently cursed Li Wan, the vicious woman! Then someone kicked him hard on the knee! He knelt on his knees with a muffled sound.

The piercing pain went straight to his heart.

Yes, he was the sacrifice!

When he lost consciousness and his head fell to the ground, he saw Li Wan not far away with a silent expression. His lips moved, and he didn't know what he said, and then his consciousness fell into endless darkness. Qian Yong said a few inspiring words, turned on his horse, and suppressed his excitement!

"Army, set off!"

What can three days do?

When the bad news came, the king of Zhen was lingering in the land of tenderness. He had few children, so in order to relieve the pressure, he worked harder and harder, hoping to have a successor who would lead Zhen to become stronger. But God refused to show mercy, and his years of hard work did not bring him the ideal reward. The eunuch's frightened voice interrupted his interest, causing his passion to stop abruptly and his heroic spirit to fall.

He was furious: "What happened?"

The eunuch reported truthfully.

The troops of Kangguo attacked the border, and the border guards sent a letter for help.

The King of Zhenguo suddenly threw open the bed curtains, his eyes wide open.

There was a tremor in his voice: "How dare you--"

Immediately summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter of meeting the enemy.

The ministers were roughly divided into three factions.

One faction was to meet the enemy and immediately mobilize troops to support the border. Li Wan's mission to Zhenguo caused chaos, and then he eloped with the captain of the prospective son-in-law and disappeared. They knew that Kangguo was going to make a move. They started recruiting troops and preparing military rations to cope with the current situation early. This faction accounted for 40% of the officials in the court.

One faction thought that they should immediately ask for help and borrow troops from the friendly neighboring country.

Kangguo was coming with great momentum, and they should prepare for the worst. Instead of sending troops to meet the enemy and defeating all the elite troops, it is better to retreat temporarily, save troops and join forces with friendly countries, and then fight back in one go. This is the safest way!

The remaining faction is more passive, and they want to negotiate.

They say they want to negotiate and appease, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that they are a surrender faction, and negotiation is just a more euphemistic way of speaking.

The King of Zhen State frowned when he found that there were quite a few people in this faction: "Peace talks? You can still find a better branch, but can I survive?"

It is impossible to negotiate.

If it is possible to negotiate, sending an envoy to please Kang State should have worked. Not only did they ignore Zhen State, but they also sent Li Wan to stir up trouble, obviously looking for a legitimate reason to start a war.

Seeing that the ministers had their own thoughts, the King was angry.

He immediately decided to send troops to support.

Zhen State is about to face the biggest crisis since its founding!

"Also, send a message to friendly countries to borrow troops immediately!"

Shen's wolfish ambitions may not be satisfied with this. Before the neighboring countries' troops arrive, we must do our best to defend the territory of Zhen. If we can't defend it, there will be no Zhen in the world. Who knew that as soon as the order was issued, another bad news came to my ears.

Three border towns, lost!

The king of Zhen suddenly stood up: "What?"

How long did it take between the two messages?

At most two hours!

Three towns were lost in two hours?

"Where is the border barrier?"
