The Grand Queen Dowager did not reprimand Echir, after all, if Echir did not seize the opportunity, 500,000 soldiers would die.
The 500,000-strong army is the backbone of Northern Mongolia. Without them, who else can protect Northern Mongolia?
However, the Queen Dowager felt that what happened to Erqier was exactly the same as what happened in the palace.
After all, being able to make tents and provisions disappear from a military camp in the blink of an eye...
It is not something an ordinary person can do to make things in the royal storeroom disappear without alerting anyone.
After seeing Erchir off, the Grand Queen Dowager felt utterly exhausted. She was completely drained, both physically and mentally.
But the necessary tasks still needed to be done; orders had to be issued immediately.
In the past few days, all out-of-towners who have been to Wangdu have been screened.
Anyone found to be suspicious must be arrested and interrogated.
Soon, panic gripped the capital.
Of course, the owner of the house who rented the courtyard to Zhao Qingyan and her group...
For the sake of their own lives, they naturally didn't expose Zhao Qingyan and her group.
After all, there was only one person renting the room at the time, and he spoke their Northern Mongolian language.
No matter how capable a person is, they can never be a notorious thief.
Because of his concealment, Zhao Qingyan and her group's whereabouts were naturally hidden as well.
According to the gatekeepers, a group of about 200 people went out in the morning.
But those people didn't seem to be carrying anything.
They checked us when we left the city, and all we brought were some dried meat and other similar items.
There was nothing else besides food.
The Queen Dowager was naturally dissatisfied with the results of the report.
"Could it be that the thief is still in the capital?" the Queen Dowager muttered to herself.
Everyone in the capital was on edge, as wave after wave of soldiers came to search the city.
Not only did they conduct searches, but they also vandalized and looted property.
The soldiers looted everything of value from the common people's homes. The capital was thrown into chaos.
The Queen Dowager never imagined that her single order would cause the soldiers and officials of the capital to lose the hearts and minds of the entire population.
Zhao Qingyan and her group rode back at full speed.
But that still couldn't hide her flirtatious nature.
Wherever the group went, whenever they encountered herdsmen, the little cavalryman's mesmerizing voice would inevitably blare from the loudspeaker.
"The Northern Mongols have committed murder, and the gods have sent down punishment. Your king is now terminally ill."
Look at your empty grasslands, your plundered cattle and sheep.
Think of your children waiting to drink milk, and your parents who need to eat meat quickly.
This is all the evil done by your Northern Mongol King.
If he hadn't sent troops to the Divine Dragon Kingdom to burn, kill, and plunder, how could he have been punished by the gods?
Alas, poor Northern Mongols, if only you were subjects of the Divine Dragon Kingdom…
As a result of all that rambling, some people will listen, and some won't. Of course, there will also be those with short tempers.
"No matter how good your Divine Dragon Kingdom is, that's what you say."
"I'm out of food now, do you think you can give me anything to eat?"
A young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old shouted loudly.
Now he believes in nothing but that whoever gives him food is a good person.
While the boy was still yelling, Zhao Qingyan threw two bags at him with a thud.
One bag contained beef jerky bought in the capital, and the other bag contained rice stored in the space.
Let the young cavalry translate.
"Here are dried meat and grain; the people of Shenlong Kingdom do not lie."
In order to ensure that the people had enough to eat, the king of Shenlong Kingdom spared no expense in sending people to sea to obtain high-yield grain seeds.
Now, the people of the entire Divine Dragon Kingdom no longer need to worry about starving to death due to lack of food.
Are you from Northern Inner Mongolia capable?
Don't be fooled by the fact that you herd livestock all day and raise so many cattle and sheep; how many of them are actually your own?
Are you full?
Is your living space warm enough? Do your children even have trouble getting a piece of candy?
And as long as you are citizens of my Divine Dragon Kingdom, you will have enough to eat and wear.
The government would teach the people how to farm and distribute free high-yield seeds.
I'll teach you how to build a heated kang (traditional Chinese bed), so you'll have a warm and cozy place to live in during the winter..."
Those who understood Northern Mongolian and those cavalrymen who followed Zhao Qingyan...
If they didn't know what kind of life the people of Shenlong Kingdom lived, they probably would have believed that Shenlong Kingdom was really that good.
The Divine Dragon Kingdom that Miss Zhao spoke of was definitely not the Divine Dragon Kingdom they knew; it must be a paradise on earth.
When faced with an opportunity to speak more, Zhao Qingyan and her group would stop and promote the good things about the Divine Dragon Kingdom.
Whether they believe it now or not is not important; the important thing is to plant a tree called "beauty" first.
Zhao Qingyan was even happier when she encountered someone who wanted to fight them head-on.
First, we need to check if the other party has a horse.
If they had a horse, they would find a way to drug the person and then steal the horse.
If there were no horses, I wouldn't bother with them at all; it's not worth the trouble.
If they encounter someone who is poor and destitute, they will give them a bag of dried meat and a bag of grain.
Then, they would offer advice: if things really got too bad, they should migrate towards Dawar.
The Divine Dragon Kingdom would not bully ordinary people.
Then, I'll give you a rundown of the many benefits of clearing land and farming, and how settling down in one place brings peace of mind.
After traveling and stopping frequently, they finally returned to the border guards.
Wu Tong was overjoyed.
Zhao Qingyan and her group went out and brought back tens of thousands of horses. With a little training, they could all be used as warhorses.
Even more encouragingly, not a single soldier was lost.
Zhao Qingyan is simply amazing.
"General Wu, the Northern Mongols are currently in chaos, and I estimate they have many internal conflicts. If you want to attack the Northern Mongols, just send troops directly."
Furthermore, I set up a small array for the army and the palace in Northern Mongolia.
I have hidden the army's provisions and livestock, as well as the royal palace's treasure vault.
I imagine there's probably some commotion inside the Northern Mongol palace right now because they're starving and thirsty.
With the 500,000-strong army of the Northern Mongols suffering from hunger and cold, their return will surely have a significant impact on the Northern Mongols.
It will be difficult for them to recover their strength in a short period of time.
"Why don't General Wu send his troops and attack directly to take it?"
Zhao Qingyan talked a lot, but Wu Tong only paid attention to the grain, fodder and livestock hidden in the formation.
He rubbed his hands together.
"My dear niece, you said you hid the grain supplies of the Northern Mongols. Does that mean we don't need to prepare any grain supplies when we go to attack the Northern Mongols?"
Zhao Qingyan nodded.
That's how it is in theory.
After all, they have enough provisions to feed an army of 500,000, which is definitely more than what you have for 100,000.
I'm not entirely sure how many there are.
However, the general should be aware that among their provisions, there was also a batch of cattle and sheep.
These were meat, food to them.
In our Divine Dragon Kingdom, cattle cannot be slaughtered casually.
Wu Tong's eyes widened.
"Can't you make your uncle happy for a little while?"
"Why can't we eat them? We went through so much trouble to get them; we have to eat a few to satisfy our cravings!"
