Soon, Shi Wushuang also received the message from the disciples of Yunlu Pavilion. Looking at the words on the note, he was stunned on the spot.
Qin Qingxue felt this way and it was incredible.
When did Li Ye become so good at fighting?
From the very beginning, when he was asked to lead troops to suppress bandits, everyone knew that he was bribing the bandits with money.
Later, he was asked to follow him to attack the Kingdom of Annan, and people always thought that it was Zhao Wudi's credit.
But there is absolutely no room for shortcuts this time.
Facing an attack by an army of 130,000, it was already very good to be able to defend.
I really don't understand how we can defeat the enemy.
Shi Wushuang sighed deeply: "Your Highness, please calm down. I have also received news that the barbarians have been defeated.
Not only were 130,000 troops almost wiped out.
There were also two armies that went to the interior to plunder, but they were also wiped out by Zhao Wudi's army.
The total number of enemy troops eliminated was over 130,000."
The third prince took a breath of cold air.
Suddenly he stretched out his hand and grabbed Shi Wushuang's arm, staring at him straight in the eyes: "Do you think the emperor is secretly sending troops to help him?
Otherwise, how could he possibly win with such a small army?"
Shi Wushuang shook his head and said, "No, I won't be able to hide the movement of the army.
Moreover, I know that the imperial court has received news of the barbarian invasion and has sent troops here.
They still had to deploy defenses along the way and had not yet reached the border.
I guess the troops sent by the imperial court were mainly used to protect the local people.
To prevent being plundered by the barbarian army, they will not come to the border at all."
"This is really strange. How on earth can Li Ye eliminate so many enemy troops?"
Shi Wushuang frowned, "I only thought of one possibility, that is, Li Ye trained hundreds of thousands of young and strong men into an army.
Only with such a large army can we hope to defeat the barbarian army.
As for what strategy he used, I still can't figure it out.
Logically speaking, the barbarian army is composed entirely of cavalry. Even if they abandon their horses to attack a city, they still have a chance to escape when they encounter danger.
How could it be eliminated?
Your Highness, please don't worry. I will immediately send someone to investigate and the truth will be revealed."
"Go investigate quickly! I want to see if Grandpa really has three heads and three arms."
The third prince was extremely frightened by the strength displayed by Li Ye.
After fighting for so many years, they still haven't eliminated more than 100,000 barbarian cavalry.
Despite being at such a huge disadvantage, Li Ye not only won the battle, but also prevented the barbarian cavalry from escaping.
This strength is truly terrifying.
If one day they were to seize the throne, Li Ye could lead his troops to destroy them all.
"By the way, aren't you on good terms with the Barbarians? Send someone over to find out what's going on.
We must know exactly how many troops Li Ye controls."
When Shi Wushuang heard this, he also felt that it made sense.
Li Ye's defense was extremely tight, and no one else could penetrate it at all.
Even if we send someone in as an undercover agent, we won't be able to get the news out.
The barbarian king personally commanded the army to fight against Li Ye. No one knew what happened better than him.
"Okay, I'll send someone to inquire immediately!"
"Damn it! This is outrageous! The old man is just a wealthy prince. He is a disgrace to our royal family.
How can I allow him to surpass this prince?"
The third prince became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and he overturned the table in front of him.
The tea set on the table fell to the ground.
Qin Qingxue was extremely helpless, whether he was pretending to be polite to the Third Prince or was unparalleled in the world.
When something happens, their true colors are revealed, and each one is more irritable than the other.
The two of them are completely incomparable to Li Ye.
From the first day Qin Qingxue met Li Ye, she had never seen him angry.
It seems that no matter what happens, he can solve it easily.
The more Qin Qingxue thought about it, the more blurred her eyes became.
She found that she knew Li Ye less and less.
She used to look down on me, and her only focus was on business and making money.
When did he grow into such a shocking general?
Having slain so many barbarian troops, which general could match his achievement?
The more I think about it, the more I regret it and realize how stupid I am.
Qin Qingxue had to admit at this moment that her vision was too poor.
Actually gave up such an excellent person.
If Shi Wushuang and the Third Prince were not right in front of me, I would really want to slap myself hard.
I especially hope that this is a dream, and when I wake up, I will be back to the time before I set out on the expedition.
Still with Li Ye.
If God could allow her to come here once, she would never leave Li Ye again even if she was beaten to death.
At Li Ye’s base, the battlefield was cleaned up as quickly as possible.
All the armor and weapons were transported to the city, and the blood-stained clothes were washed and dried by the women, and then sorted and stored in the warehouse.
A large number of warhorse carcasses were also transported back in an orderly manner, and specialized personnel were responsible for dismembering them.
Large amounts of horse meat need to be cut and smoked to make jerky to prevent it from spoiling after being stored for a long time.
Having this horse meat can also improve the people's diet.
Bones are used to make soup, horse hides are made into leather, and no one is wasted.
Li Ye was not idle. All the people in the village were under the command of Lei Zhan and Lei Ying.
Together with Zhao Wudi, take all the cavalry and rush to the inland.
Although the powerful barbarian army was repelled, a large number of barbarian troops still entered the interior to sweep.
Li Ye would never let these people escape alive.
"The safety of our village is in your hands. With enough crossbows and troops, there will be no problem in protecting the village.
Although the possibility is extremely small, we cannot rule out the possibility that the enemy will turn around and launch a sneak attack.
If the barbarian army attacks again, send someone to notify us immediately." Li Ye instructed.
When he heard that they were going to encircle and suppress the enemy, Lei Zhan was very reluctant to stay.
"Your Highness, please let me go too!"
"You are now the commander-in-chief of the infantry. If you leave, how will you command the infantry army?
If you really don't want to do this anymore, you can be assigned to the cavalry and start as a soldier.
Continue to climb up through military exploits."
Li Ye said.
Lei Zhan scratched his head: "Then I'll continue to lead the infantry!"
Lei Ying slapped him on the back of the head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?
His Highness has entrusted so many troops to you, can you be so willful?"
"Don't I just want to continue fighting with His Highness?" Lei Zhan felt aggrieved.
"Lead your troops to defend well, and don't be too careless just because you've won a battle.
There have been many wars in the past where carelessness led to the annihilation of the entire army.
We can't follow in the footsteps of these people." Li Ye said with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will take good care of him!" said Lei Ying.
"I feel at ease with you around!"
Just as he was about to lead his troops away, a scout came quickly to report.
"General Lei, I'm honored to meet you, Your Highness. We have learned that the armies of the Jin Kingdom, the Khitan vassal state, and several other nations are en route and have already crossed the border."
Everyone was very puzzled after hearing this.
"What's going on? The barbarians have suffered a defeat, yet they still dare to come. Aren't they afraid of death?" Lei Ying was full of confusion.
