"Your Highness thinks that Ulanba will unite the strength of the whole clan to prevent me, Dasong, from continuing to advance to the far north?" Chang Wei turned over the document and frowned slightly.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Don't forget that Ulanba has surrendered to the Rus Kingdom and is no longer Beidi who only acted according to his own will." Zhao Xu said lightly.

Chang Wei nodded and couldn't help but shook his head, "So, in fact, we are already at war with Russia."

"That's what I mean." Zhao Xu looked to the north, "Before I got this news, I thought that Beidi would definitely choose to retreat north when faced with Chen Hu's encirclement and suppression, and would not confront Chen Hu's Lancers head-on. But now the situation is different. Therefore, you now have the Central Army ready to support Chen Hu at any time."

In fact, he believed that Chen Hu's Lancers could deal with Beidi.

After all, Beidi is really at the end of its tether now. .

The destruction of the Silver Moon King's Tent and the Black Iron King's Tent is proof.

When the lancers attacked the two king's tents, each king's tent could not even bring out 20,000 cavalry.

Even if they were taken out, they were still a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled people, and they were urgently replenished during this period.

Even if it gathers all the troops, it will definitely not exceed 200,000, and the quality of the troops is worrying.

However, lancers are good at dealing with cavalry.

If Ulanba starts a positional battle, the Lancers will be scratching their heads. After all, they don't have heavy weapons.

This is why he asked Chang Wei to prepare.

"Your Majesty, let the general go out in person this time and sweep across Beidi Khan's court!" Chang Wei's eyes suddenly lit up when Zhao Xu told the Central Army to prepare.

It was his lifelong wish to attack Beidi in the north and ride on horseback to the Khan's court.

Seeing Chang Wei's eager eyes, Zhao Xu couldn't help but smile, "Okay, I promise you. In fact, I also want to lead the expedition myself, but for me, the power generated by the thermal power plant is more important than Beidi."

No matter how determined and crazy the Rus and Beidi behave in the north, to him, they are nothing more than a mantis trying to use their arms as a chariot.

He believed that Emperor Nicholas of Russia must also be aware of this.

However, in such a situation, he couldn't do nothing.

The only way is to rely on the troops from Beidi and the Far East to continue fighting to the death with Dasong and delay the march of Dasong's army northward.

He knew very well that if the Russian state did nothing in the Far East, all the territory they had occupied for more than a hundred years would be used as wedding clothes for others.

The resistance might fail, but at least it would buy him some time to react if the situation took a turn for the worse.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chang Wei was overjoyed, and his whole body suddenly became energetic.

"Remember to fight this battle beautifully." Zhao Xu warned again.

Just as he said to Chang Wei, he originally wanted to lead the expedition himself.

However, the construction progress of the power station has been extremely smooth since the beginning of spring, and Li Wei vowed that the construction period may be shortened by one month than expected.

In other words, there are still more than 20 days before the first thermal power plant in Dasong can officially generate electricity.

This time is obviously not enough for him to go out.

Therefore, he decided to stay in Yancheng and just wait for the arrival of this historical event.

Chang Wei said yes again and left happily.

Zhao Xu also left Wuji Palace not long after.

Li Wei is keeping an eye on the thermal power plant. These days, he is focusing on the military division and the workshop area, letting them complete the final preparations before power supply.

When Yancheng is electrified, the workshops in the military division and the workshop area must be converted from steam power to electric energy.

As for the previous steam equipment, it was transferred to remote western cities such as Qinzhou and Yongzhou to improve local productivity levels.

In the future, when thermal power plants are gradually built in these places, these steam equipment will be sold to vassal countries.

grassland.

When Zhao Xu ordered the Central Army to prepare for war, the cavalry led by Chen Hu was searching for the location of the Blood Wolf King's tent.

After ordering the cavalry to stop, Chen Hu looked at the remaining traces of the campfire and frowned lightly.

When he arrived at the location he had initially detected, the Blood Wolf King's tent moved as a whole.

This is similar to what he expected. It is inevitable that the grass will scare the snake. This is inevitable.

After that, they followed the clues for a long time and found that the Blood Wolf King's tent began to flee westward.

But then he suddenly turned back, heading north, and then east again, deliberately leading them in a circle.

Chen Hu was also a little annoyed about this.

Although they have detailed maps of the grassland, Beidi knows the grassland better than they do.

However, the Beidi cavalry was slightly inferior to them in terms of war horses, and their horse power gradually ran out.

The bonfire they left behind this time was still warm, indicating that the distance between them and the Blood Wolf King's cavalry was now less than one day instead of three days before.

Thinking of this, he ordered to continue the pursuit.

After searching for another two days, Chen Hu suddenly discovered that the Blood Wolf King's tent was heading straight north.

That direction seemed to be the direction of the Khan Court.

After chasing north for another half day, suddenly a large number of herdsmen and cattle and sheep from the Blood Wolf King's tent appeared in front of them.

When these herdsmen saw them, they panicked and drove their cattle and sheep towards the north.

But not a single Beidi cavalry came out to fight.

It seems that the Beidi cavalry abandoned these Beidi herdsmen.

"Catch them all." Chen Hu ordered.

They want to rescue the Dasong people trapped inside, and also capture these Beidi people and turn them into Dasong's assets.

Without the protection of the Beidi cavalry, the Beidi herdsmen were naturally as helpless as cattle and sheep facing the Dasong cavalry.

After a small-scale battle and killing some of the Beidi people who resisted, Chen Hu took control of the Blood Wolf King's tent.

"General, the prisoners said that their king received an order from the Khan's court, so he abandoned them and went to the Khan's court." The battle stopped, and a cavalry captain came forward to report back.

"An order from the Khan Court?" Chen Hu looked to the north and fell into deep thought.

In his opinion, Ulanba did not hesitate to abandon his herdsmen and recall the cavalry for only one purpose, which was to retain his troops.

"General Xue is here." As he was thinking, suddenly a cavalryman came in front of him, pointing to the southeast.

Chen Hu looked around and saw a dark mass of cavalry coming towards their position. It was the lancers led by Xue Jian.

Not long after, the two armies gathered together and Xue Jian came to Chen Hu.

"General, the Black Iron King's Tent was captured by the last general. The remaining cavalry fled north. When the last general went to the location of the Tongniu King's Tent, he found that the Tongniu King's Tent had moved to the direction of Beidi Khan Court. He did not expect to be here. , unexpectedly met the general," Xue Jian said.

Chen Hu nodded. He and Xue Jian were both heading to the Beidi Khan Court. It would not be surprising to meet again.

So he said, "In that case, we will go straight to the Beidi Khan Court to find out what happened."

After that, he tightened the reins and headed north.
