The two had just finished drinking and were having a great time.
A figure rushed into the tent at lightning speed.
"Reporting to the Great Khan, there is an urgent military situation at the front."
"explain……."
Hu Luchi suddenly slammed his hand on the table.
"Great Khan...this..."
Seeing how happy Hu Luchi was, the northern barbarian scout was speechless and stammered, unsure how to continue.
What he did was something that could cost him his head.
Now, even reporting military intelligence requires constant vigilance to avoid the possibility of being beheaded.
One wrong move and you could lose your head.
“Speak up…”
Hu Luchi initially thought it was good news from the front lines.
But seeing his own people stuttering like that, he immediately got angry.
Could it be that our side, with 20,000 troops on both sides, could possibly lose?
No, Liu Feng was able to wipe out most of the generals of my Northern Barbarians. He is skilled in martial arts and is also very cunning. It must be that the people he sent this time suffered heavy casualties.
Yan Kangjie shared the same thought. After all, he had sent out several thousand men to kill the emperor last time, but they were routed by Liu Feng's army, and even his prized assassin squad was wiped out.
Although they sent out a large number of people this time, neither the Northern Barbarians nor the Heaven and Earth Society sent out their elite troops.
They were meant to be cannon fodder anyway, so even if there are more casualties, as long as Liu Feng can be eliminated, all these sacrifices will be worthwhile.
Therefore, in the minds of these two powerful figures at this moment, their goal is simple: as long as they capture Liu Feng, any number of casualties are worthwhile.
Total annihilation or mutual destruction are both acceptable.
"Great Khan, ahead, a great defeat has been suffered."
"General Ansola has disappeared without a trace."
"General Shui Linglong was killed on the spot by the enemy general."
"Currently, only the remaining two thousand troops of the Heaven and Earth Society have regrouped in the mountains and forests on the border of Yanzhou."
"And our Northern Barbarians sent more than 3,000 men, all of whom were wiped out."
Upon hearing this, Hu Luchi almost spat out a mouthful of blood; the news was simply too explosive.
His face turned deathly pale instantly.
"Where did this thief come from, daring to spread rumors and mislead the public here, and to give false military intelligence?"
"Men, strip him off and kill him."
There was no other way. Although the spy was his own subordinate, the Northern Barbarian army had been completely wiped out, and the news of General Sora's disappearance absolutely could not be leaked.
Otherwise, the tribes within the Northern Barbarians who were dissatisfied with his rule would immediately take action.
That will lead to internal strife among the northern barbarians.
The two tribes rebelled last year because of their crushing defeat in the Battle of Tianyong City.
At this moment, Yan Kangjie's complexion was also extremely poor.
He had gathered almost all the troops in Youzhou, and even transferred three thousand men from Yanzhou.
More than 10,000 people, just like that, gone?
As long as less than three thousand people are still alive?
Is this no different from a complete annihilation?
For him, although these troops from Yanzhou were not his direct subordinates, they were all his men. It had taken him several years to gather so many people.
This is a huge blow to the overall strength of the Heaven and Earth Society.
Although the Heaven and Earth Society wielded considerable power and could practically control everything in Yanzhou, it didn't completely rule the region.
Compared to the current Yan Prefecture, it is still under the jurisdiction of the governor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Although the governor did not have much military power, the members of the Heaven and Earth Society were scattered throughout Yanzhou.
If you want to rebel, you should take each city one by one, using a coordinated approach from within and without.
Now that so many troops stationed in Youzhou have been lost in the first battle, what will happen when we attack Youzhou in the future?
Although it won't have much impact on the Yanzhou headquarters, it will be a catastrophic blow to the Heaven and Earth Society's control over Youzhou.
In order to eliminate Liu Feng, this stumbling block, he mobilized almost all the men from the villages in Youzhou who were loyal to the Heaven and Earth Society.
"The Great Khan..."
Yan Kangjie turned his head.
Then they saw Hu Luchi, whose face had turned ashen.
Sometimes, information cannot be blocked.
A temporary blockade could be implemented, but with no news of the army that had gone out for a long time, how could the leaders of other tribes not become suspicious?
For him, the loss was manpower, but for Hu Luchi, there were still many troubles to face.
This alliance has reached a point where there is no need for it to continue.
"Liu Feng..."
"You really have a lot of skills."
A few days later.
All the city walls and moats in Zhengde County that were damaged in the war were repaired.
The traces of the battle have completely disappeared. The commercial street is still bustling, everyone is doing their job, and everything has returned to normal.
It is even more prosperous than before.
Meanwhile, news kept coming from the northern barbarians.
Because of this major defeat of the Northern Barbarians, the internal conflicts within the Northern Barbarians have been reignited.
Great Khan Huluchi was assassinated in his own tent.
The leaders of the eighteen tribes of the Northern Barbarians were completely engulfed in a chaotic war in their struggle for the supreme position.
At this point, if no resourceful and ruthless person were to step forward and reunify the Northern Barbarians, it would be impossible.
Therefore, this internal conflict within the Northern Barbarians will not end in a short time.
In other words, the threat from the northern barbarians has now been completely eliminated.
The Northern Barbarian armies that were originally stationed on the border of the Northern Barbarians have now all been withdrawn.
