Chapter 72 I want him to be my slave

After listening to Mu Changtian's words, Lu Chen looked at the map and fell into deep thought again.

This is indeed a problem. The Wanning River Valley is not long, and it is not a big problem for the barbarian cavalry to pass quickly.

Once howitzers are used, the barbarian cavalry will inevitably be in chaos. They will either rush forward or retreat back.

No matter whether the barbarian cavalry charges forward or retreats, they still need a large number of soldiers to resist the barbarian cavalry.

Of course, if they just plan to repel the barbarian soldiers, then they only need to hold the front of the Wanning Valley.

However, Lu Chen has great ambitions. He doesn't just want to fight off the barbarian cavalry.

If we just repel the barbarian cavalry, those barbarian cavalry will not be able to capture Yancheng and will probably attack other cities.

What he wants most in this battle is to eliminate the effective strength of the barbarians, so that the barbarians can no longer gather their forces to go south for a long time.

Therefore, these 300,000 people absolutely cannot be put back.

If this was put back, after the barbarian soldiers recovered, they would go south again to plunder. Lu Chen didn't think the howitzer could completely frighten them.

Lu Chen also knew what was going on in the north. When winter came, many people would starve to death in even the northern county, let alone the barbarians on the grasslands.

Lu Chen was not sympathizing with the barbarians, but in his opinion, people could do anything when they were about to starve to death, and it was impossible for the barbarians to not dare to go south just because there were howitzers in Beijun.

Lu Chen sighed and said, "Hurry up and recruit troops."

After hearing this, Mu Changtian still said with some worry: "My lord, in such a short period of time, it will be very difficult to train the new soldiers to be able to fight against the barbarian cavalry."

What Mu Changtian said was a bit conservative. It was simply impossible to train soldiers to be able to fight against barbarian cavalry within two months.

Lu Chen naturally understood this truth, and he immediately said: "I plan to create an artillery battalion. The newly recruited soldiers will not participate in frontal combat. By then, all 30,000 soldiers in Beijun will be able to enter the frontal battlefield."

Artillery battalion?

What it is?

Everyone was confused when they heard the new term coming from Lu Chen's mouth. They had never heard of an artillery battalion.

Lu Chen looked at Li Rui and said, "Chief Li, this is a problem for you. You must cooperate with General Li and the others to recruit 10,000 new soldiers as soon as possible."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Rui immediately said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Rui sighed inwardly. He originally wanted to persuade King Bei to withdraw south, but judging from King Bei's tone, others had no idea of ​​evacuating south.

If he proposed to withdraw to the south at this time, wouldn't he offend the Northern King?

Li Rui couldn't help but think about the use of recruiting 10,000 more soldiers. Let alone 10,000 soldiers, even if he recruited 100,000 more new soldiers, there would be no way to stop the barbarian cavalry.

Although he thought so in his heart, Li Rui did not dare to say it directly. After all, the King of Bei was the vassal king, and he was the master of Beijun.

Lu Chen looked at the map on the table at this time and said: "After the artillery battalion is established, I will show you the new weapons of Beiwang Mansion."

After hearing this, everyone became even more curious. King Bei seemed to be very confident in the new weapons he mentioned. They wondered what kind of new weapons gave King Bei the courage to fight the barbarian army in Yancheng.

Although he was curious, he did not continue to ask. The Northern King had already said that he would show it to them, so the main task now was to seize the time to recruit soldiers and form a new army as soon as possible.

In the north, the barbarian royal court.

On the endless grassland, there are large and small felt tents, also known as yurts.

The yurts in the middle become larger in area. The largest yurt is where one of the barbarian kings lives.

The barbarians are widely distributed on the grassland, and there are seven kings in total. Located due north of Beijun is the Sirius King, the barbarian king who is preparing to attack Beijun and establish a country in Beijun.

At this time, a woman wearing animal skins rode a horse into the middle of the ger community.

The woman has fair skin and a beautiful and delicate face. She does not look like she lives on the grassland at all.

After she got off the horse, she immediately asked her slave, "Is Wu Yuan back?"

The slave holding the horse next to her, who had an inscription on his face, immediately replied: "You are back, Your Highness."

After hearing this, the woman immediately excitedly went to the smaller yurt next to the big yurt. After opening the curtain, she found that the man she was talking about just now was indeed back.

At this time, the man named Wu Yuan was kneeling on the ground, reporting some information to a beautiful woman.

Inside the yurt, a stunningly beautiful woman was lying half on the bed, exposing her long white legs. The woman was wearing gorgeous plush clothes, and her whole body was covered with glittering jewelry. She looked very charming and charming.

She is the most important woman in the barbarian branch of the Sirius King, and she was also the princess of the previous Sirius King.

According to the custom of the barbarians, after the death of the previous Sirius King, she will marry the current Sirius King.

But for some reasons, she has never married, but she has promised to the current Sirius King that if he can defeat Beijun and establish a country in Beijun, she will marry him and become his princess.

At this time, the woman who entered the tent saluted and said, "I have met the princess."

Although the beautiful woman in front of her has not yet married the current Sirius King, everyone recognizes her as the princess.

Yelu Nanyan glanced at Xiao Wenyao, and then said softly: "Get up."

Yelu Nanyan's voice was so gentle that it made people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze.

Xiao Wenyao, the woman who entered the tent, is the daughter of the current Sirius King Xiao Hongbo. Originally, they did not have a surname.

But in order to learn from Daxia, everyone in the Sirius King's clan now has a surname, and the Sirius King's royal family takes the surname Xiao.

The name Xiao Wenyao was also given to her by Princess Yelu Nanyan not long ago.

Yelu Nanyan's attention returned to the man in front of her again, and she asked: "I heard that the vassal king of Beijun was a lecherous person who spent all day having fun in the palace. Since he went to Beijun, he has never I have never interfered in Bei County’s affairs, so I don’t know if this is really the case?”

Wu Yuan said: "Hui Wangfei, it is indeed true."

Hearing the man's answer, a smile appeared on the corner of Yelu Nanyan's mouth, "So, this time the king marches south, Beijun is within easy reach?"

Wu Yuan reminded: "Princess, although the King of the North is just a waste, Daxia's army will not sit idly by and ignore it. Once the king sends troops, Daxia will definitely send an army to the north."

Yelu Nanyan said calmly: "By the time the Daxia army arrives, the king has already established a firm foothold in Beijun, and civil strife is about to break out in Daxia, so the Xia Emperor does not have so much energy to take care of us."

At this time, Xiao Wenyao on the side intervened and said: "Princess, if you can capture the North King after conquering the North County, can you hand him over to me? I heard that the North King is very handsome, and I want him to be mine." slave."
