Chapter 180: Two surprises and the uneasiness of Marquis Shenwu!



Adding the previous 150,000, that’s a total of 220,000 troops.

Two hundred and twenty thousand grassland troops.

In the Eastern Continent, it can dominate almost all countries except the Wei Dynasty.

You must know that the army stationed at Zhenbei Pass now is only a hundred thousand soldiers, and the ratio of troops is directly one to two!

Although Marquis Shenwu could mobilize garrisons from other places, he did not do so. First of all, he could not guarantee that the grassland army would not be divided after gathering.

The current military strength of the entire northern defense line was planned in advance, taking into account various situations.

If we choose to send reinforcements at this time, it will disrupt the previous plan.

So he decided to use the current military strength of Zhenbei Pass.

To deal with the army of ten tribes on the grassland.

It was during this period that the grassland army set out and once again arrived at Zhenbei Pass.

Because siege warfare was not the grassland people's strong point, they did not use their full strength, but only sent large troops to harass from time to time.

Of course, Marquis Shenwu was worried that if this continued, the local enemies would lose patience and choose to attack other places, so he also took the initiative to send troops to attack during this process.

Over the course of several days, dozens of battles, large and small, took place, with both sides winning and losing.

If we have to say who suffered greater losses, it was naturally the garrison at Zhenbei Pass.

After all, there is grassland outside Zhenbei Pass.

Fighting on someone else's home turf is bound to be a disadvantage.

However, for Marquis Shenwu, as long as the grassland army can be stopped outside the pass, it will be considered a victory.

As for the casualties of soldiers, he could only try every possible way to reduce them, but he had no way to completely control them.

In the end, people will die in war.

The grassland is not like other countries, which have iron cavalry that can dominate the entire eastern continent. Even the Wei Dynasty needs to treat it with caution. After all, the soldiers in the north are the real elite of the entire country.

On this day, Marquis Shenwu lowered his head, supported his hands on the edge of the sand table, and looked at the current situation.

The more than 200,000 troops on the grassland were indeed attracted to Zhenbei Pass and did not disperse.

Everything seems to be within my expectations.

Especially in recent days, the loss of troops has gradually decreased, and the situation is developing in a positive direction.

But Marquis Shenwu felt a little uneasy at the moment, because he carefully recalled the battles of the past few days, and suddenly discovered that after the grassland army assembled, there had never been a full-scale attack by the army, and no troops had directly marched to Zhenbei Pass.

This means that the grassland army did not use its full strength at all.

So there is only one explanation, they have other purposes.

This made Shenwu Hou frightened.

In the past, grassland tribes had always been straightforward in going to war, but this time, it was completely different. What exactly happened?
