Chapter 497 Too Many Concerns



In less than an hour, Budu arrived with 20,000 reinforcements.

At this moment, the meat had been stewed in the camp.

As soon as they saw the meat, the people from the Menghu and Zhenhe tribes became like hungry wolves.

Jia Yao didn't say much and let everyone eat as much as they wanted.

Now, with the enemy army approaching in force, a good meal can boost morale.

Only with morale can we fight the enemy wholeheartedly.

While all the soldiers were enjoying their meal, Jia Yao called Budu into the tent and asked him about the situation of the people from the Mongol and Zhenhe tribes.

They all said with a smile: "These people are simple-minded but strong-limbed! As long as they can eat meat, they will work hard!"

Affected by last year's large-scale locust plague, both the Mongols and the Zhenhe were having a hard time.

People from both the Mongols and the Zhenhe tribes starved to death.

...

...

When they heard that they could eat meat if they joined them in the fight, they all started crying out.

Many people with gray hair want to come along!

If the old and weak were not driven away, it would be no problem for them to bring 50,000 or 60,000 people!

"That's good!"

Jia Yao let out a long sigh and ordered Bu Du: "Send someone to send away the horses of the Mongol and Zhenhe tribes first. Even if we are defeated, we cannot let these horses fall into the hands of the enemy!"

If left in their hands, these horses can also be used as food!

Leaving it to the enemy will only benefit them!

Now that you have made preparations for both situations, you must do it to the end!

Afterwards, Jiayao began to talk to Budu about the situation of the enemy army.

As the two were talking, Gu Ge ran in hurriedly.

"Princess, the spies reported that the enemy has about 6,000 to 7,000 elite cavalry, all riding two horses each, and are secretly crossing the Yellow Sand Sea. They seem to be heading towards the royal court!"

Raid the royal court?

Jia Yao's eyelids suddenly twitched.

The royal court’s military strength is extremely insufficient now!

Just two thousand Royal Guards!

If the enemy forces charged forward, the two thousand Royal Guards would most likely be unable to stop them.

The faces of the people waiting for others were not looking good either.

How deep is the obsession of the people of Da Gan towards the royal court of Beihuan!

Does anyone want to raid the royal court of Beihuan?

A hint of enlightenment flashed in Jia Yao's eyes. "No wonder the enemy troops in front of them have been marching slowly and orderly. It turns out that they are trying to attract our attention and create an opportunity for them to raid the elite troops of the royal court!"

"Princess, what should we do now?" Budu frowned and asked, "Should we send some people to support the royal court?"

He also knew the situation in the royal court.

With their current morale, it is almost impossible for the two thousand Royal Guards to defeat the large number of elite troops who raided the Royal Court.

Jia Yao was about to send someone for support when he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

"Princess, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Jiayao's expression was not right, Budu asked immediately.

"Could this be a trick by the enemy to confuse the enemy?"

Jia Yao frowned and said, "What if the enemy is just bluffing? We might fall into their trap!"

"No way?" Gu Ge pondered, "Under normal circumstances, it is normal for the enemy to want to take advantage of our deployment of the army to attack the empty defense of the royal court!"

"It's normal. That's why I'm a little worried." Jia Yao frowned, looking uneasy.

Looking at Jia Yao's appearance, one couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Jia Yao has lost all confidence after being beaten.

Now, she couldn't help but overthink any move of the enemy.

Generally speaking, this is a good thing.

But when facing the enemy in battle, this is a bad thing!

If you think too much, you may be misled by yourself and make wrong judgments.

"Don't worry Princess."

Bu Du comforted him, "As long as we send more spies to keep an eye on the enemy troops along the way, we don't have to worry about anything! The enemy troops are now much less numerous, which is a good thing for us! We can send some people to support the royal court first, and after we defeat the enemy troops in front, we can turn around and deal with this elite force that attacked the royal court by surprise."

Now, the enemy's frontal strength is probably only half of theirs.

Although they were inferior to the enemy in all aspects except numbers, they still saw hope.

This is their hope of winning!

Only by winning a game can we boost morale.

We must break the myth of Yun Zheng’s invincibility and let the Beihuan warriors regain their confidence.

"That's right, Princess! Anyway, we have someone watching us, so we don't have to worry about them doing anything tricky!"

"Princess, you have too many concerns right now, and I'm afraid that will affect your judgment."

Guge and Morigen also comforted Jiayao.

They all knew that Jia Yao was under a lot of pressure right now.

They were all afraid that Jia Yao would think too much and end up confusing his own head.

Listening to the persuasion of several people, Jia Yao shook his head vigorously, forcing himself to calm down.

Maybe I really think too much!

After thinking silently for a while, Jia Yao ordered Gu Ge, "You immediately lead 5,000 troops to rush to the royal court. If the enemy attacks the royal court, there is no need to fight them head-on, just hold them back!"

"yes!"

Guge took the order and left.

Jia Yao temporarily put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind and instructed Budu: "Tell the people of the Menghu and Zhenhe tribes that if they win this battle, 60% of all the spoils will be given to them!"

"good!"

Bu Du laughed and said, "Give them all!"

"That's not the way it should be."

Jia Yao shook his head and said, "Too much is as bad as too little. Be careful that they will get suspicious!"

It’s not like Beihuan didn’t contribute, so why should all the captured people be given to the Mongols and Zhenhe?

Although the people of the Mongols and Zhenhe tribes are simple-minded but strong-limbed, there are also some smart people among them.

If the people from the two departments find out that they are sending their people to their deaths, there is a possibility that the people from the two departments will mutiny on the battlefield!

"Well, that's true!"

Bu Du chuckled, "Princess is indeed very thoughtful."

Jia Yao forced a smile and continued, "Also, don't we still have a thousand elite soldiers? Once the battle begins, these thousand elite soldiers will form a supervisory team. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed!"

The next moment, a cold light flashed in Jia Yao's eyes.

At this moment, she had no time to worry about the people from Menghu and Zhenhe.

She could only try her best to save Beihuan's people.

"good!"

Bu Du nodded and said coldly: "We have helped these two groups to cut grass and feed horses along the way. It's time for them to do something!"

Now, the most ideal situation is that the Mongols and Zhenhe tribes fight with Da Gan's cavalry and both sides suffer losses.

Then, the Beihuan cavalry pressed forward again.

In this way, we will definitely win the battle!

Jia Yao thought silently for a while, and then said: "When the enemy army approaches, we can let our people make a feint attack first, and when the real charge comes, let the people of the Menghu and Zhenhe tribes attack! If the enemy army makes a tentative attack, let our people fight too!"

Anyway, the heaviest casualties were left to the Mongols and Zhenhe.

If possible, Jia Yao would not even want to see the death of a Beihuan soldier.

After giving the two some instructions for a while, Jia Yao let the three of them do what he had asked them to do.

After the three people left, Jia Yao couldn't help but start thinking again.

What she is most worried about now is the large cavalry that raided the royal court.

If that cavalry had not intended to raid the royal court, but instead attacked from somewhere else, their morale would probably have collapsed quickly!

no!

We must send more spies to closely monitor the movements of that cavalry!

Thinking of this, Jia Yao immediately walked out...
