Border area.
Tu Yuanjun's camp.
"Haha, how ridiculous!" A loud laugh came from one of the tents.
Mokodin touched his head, his face glowing.
One of his subordinates, seeing him suddenly burst into laughter, was puzzled and immediately asked:
"Why is the Marshal laughing?"
Mokodin chuckled and said, "I'm laughing at the Prince of Zhenbei's lack of strategy!"
"Having won a battle before, he didn't send troops to help, but instead held his ground and didn't come out. He didn't even understand the principle of pursuing the victory!"
"These past few days I thought he would send troops, so I built defensive fortifications early on, but who knew he would hold back his troops."
The general smiled slightly and said, "Their arrival in Xijing was sudden. I suppose it's because their supplies and provisions couldn't keep up, or perhaps they originally intended to repel us and didn't dare to continue fighting?"
"After all, if the fighting continues, it will turn into a full-scale war."
Upon hearing this, Mokhadin shook his head and chuckled softly, saying:
"Food supplies are definitely not the main reason. After all, they are backed by Xijing, so how could they lack food supplies? However, it is unlikely that they dare not fight."
“This Prince of Zhenbei is no ordinary man. He has slaughtered so many barbarian horses on the Beiku Grassland, which shows his bravery. Do you think he wouldn’t dare to fight such a person?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the general looked puzzled.
"Marshal, then why do you say he doesn't send troops to fight?"
Mokodin stroked his chin, pondered for a while, and then smiled:
"I think the problem lies within this large organization."
"The Emperor of Da Gan ceded Xijing, but the people of Xijing spontaneously organized troops to refuse to cede it. And the Prince of Zhenbei came all the way from Beiliang. These things are all illogical. I think the Prince of Zhenbei must have brought his troops here on his own."
"The Emperor of Da Gan originally intended to cede Xijing, but the Prince of Zhenbei ruined the plan."
At this point, Mokodin's face gradually darkened.
"The Prince of Zhenbei killed all the Hu horses on the Beiku Grassland and brought the Beiku Grassland under the command of Daqian. This is an unparalleled achievement."
"He has already been granted the title of Prince of Zhenbei, so how should the Emperor of Daqian bestow rewards upon him?"
"There's simply no more to bestow titles upon him, no more rewards to bestow. Ah, and precisely because of this, I suspect that the Great Gan Emperor certainly doesn't want him to continue making contributions in Xijing."
"He is not sending troops to fight us, probably because he is being held back by the Emperor of Da Gan."
After he finished speaking, the general nodded repeatedly.
"As expected of the marshal, his reasoning is sound and convincing!"
He chuckled and continued, "In that case, it's actually a good thing for us, hehe."
Mokhadin smiled broadly, his eyes narrowing, and he laughed heartily, saying:
"That's right, infighting is good! Infighting allows us to take advantage of the situation!"
After saying this, Mokodin shook his head again and sighed softly:
"Speaking of which, if my Tu Yuan Kingdom had been of one mind when I came to Xijing this time, I wouldn't have only been given 200,000 troops."
"Hmph, Prince Arthur is afraid that I will gain too many troops, so he speaks ill of me to the Emperor and tries to obstruct me in every way."
"Why doesn't he understand the principle of working together towards a common goal? If everyone is united, what can't be accomplished?"
"They only think about power and profit all day long. They are really short-sighted. If they had sent a million-strong army to fight from the beginning, they could have taken not only Xijing, but other places as well!"
The general nodded and said in a deep voice, "The marshal is right."
"If all nations possessed the same ambition as the Marshal, our Tu Yuan Kingdom would surely be invincible and unbreakable!"
Mokodin laughed and shook his head, saying, "Don't flatter me, I can't stand being praised."
"It's not a good thing to have too many achievements; enough is enough."
"You'll see if you don't believe me. After I recapture Xijing, if I want to continue attacking Daqian, Prince Arthur will definitely get involved. He won't dare to see me dominate the world."
"It was the Great Emperor himself..."
Mokodin stopped abruptly, keeping the rest of his sentence to himself.
The general's face darkened, and he remained silent.
Mokodin stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Let me ask you a question: What kind of army is the strongest?"
The general raised an eyebrow, pondered for a while, and then said, "The commander is resourceful, the soldiers are brave, and we have better weapons and stronger physiques!"
"besides...."
Mokodin interrupted him, chuckled, and said:
"There are many answers, but I think there is only one that is most important."
The subordinate looked doubtful: "What is that?"
Mokhadin said, word by word, "Unity between superiors and inferiors!"
"In all wars, whether initiated or carried out, the principle of unity of purpose must be upheld."
Do you know how the nomadic horses of the Beiku Grassland were wiped out?
The general frowned. "They were wiped out by the army sent by the Prince of Zhenbei. You know that too?"
Mokodin shook his head and smiled faintly, saying, "Previously, a Humaman named Tushadong fled from the Northern Ku Grassland to my Tuyuan Kingdom, and was later taken under the command of Prince Arthur."
"At a court assembly, Natu Shadong gave a detailed account of how the Hu horses of the Beiku Grassland were wiped out."
"The three major Hu horse tribes on the Beiku Grassland had a combined army of over 500,000, but they were all annihilated by the Zhenbei King, who had even fewer troops."
"The reason for this is that they did not cooperate with each other. In fact, they were scheming against each other when the Prince of Zhenbei marched on, and in the end, they were defeated one by one by the Prince of Zhenbei and all of them were killed."
"You see, this is what happens when people don't work together towards the same goal."
"Thinking about it, the situation is no different. If the emperor allows the Prince of Zhenbei to continue fighting, or even sends reinforcements, then we will have to work much harder."
