The battle ended quickly, and no barbarians were spared.
The entire tribe was massacred.
A large number of war horses and livestock were seized.
A part of the infantry was sent to join the cavalry army.
The more cavalry, the greater the mobility.
All the captured sheep were slaughtered and loaded into horse-drawn carts.
The fireman was very excited.
A stove was set up on the carriage, and the roasted lamb was roasted and served to the soldiers.
The army can complete the supply without stopping the battle.
This is the infantry army method designed by Li Ye.
As long as the horse can hold on, there is no need to stop even to eat.
This way, you can travel more efficiently.
If we win the battle, everyone can eat meat, and they can eat as much as they want.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so it can't be stored for too long.
Moreover, carrying too much supplies will also affect the movement speed of the army.
The best way is to eat it as soon as possible.
Continuing forward, we soon discovered another enemy tribe.
Just like before, surround and annihilate them without hesitation.
As the army advanced, the barbarians finally realized that something was wrong.
Only then did they realize that Dayuan had actually begun to encircle them from behind.
All the tribes were terrified when they heard the news and fled desperately.
The barbarian king was extremely surprised when he received the news.
"Dayuan sent troops to launch a surprise attack from the rear? How is that possible?
That's the border of Lingshuang Kingdom.
Lingshuang Country has formed an alliance with us.
Why didn't you send troops to deal with Dayuan?"
"I don't know, didn't they say that the head of Yunlu Pavilion had already gone to Lingshuang Country?
Let them send troops to support us again.
Why is it that after so long, there is still no news?"
"Let's go and ask the Great Elder what the arrangements are.
When will Lingshuang Kingdom send troops to support us?"
The barbarian generals and civil officials were all worried.
The way the Dayuan army fought was completely different from before.
In addition, they are equipped with a large number of crossbows, which greatly restrains their cavalry.
If it's just one army, maybe we can still handle it
Their main forces were all at the front line, but suddenly a large army appeared behind them.
The barbarians were caught off guard.
The Great Elder and Wushuang were anxiously waiting for news from Yun Zhongtian.
The barbarian king rushed into his tent with a group of generals and officials.
The attitude is very arrogant.
There is no longer any courtesy as before.
The Great Elder's face looked extremely ugly, but at this moment he could only suppress the anger in his heart.
He asked in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, you have brought so many people here in such a threatening manner. Could it be that you want to bring an army to punish us?"
The Barbarian King had no patience and asked directly, "A large number of Dayuan troops appeared behind us and are destroying our tribe everywhere.
Shouldn't you give an explanation?"
The Great Elder knew nothing about the matchmaking and was extremely shocked when he heard it.
"When did that incident happen? How come Lao Fu has never heard of it?"
"Hmph, by the time your news reaches me, I'm afraid the Dayuan army will have already arrived.
I guess I can only tell you these things in the prison car." The Barbarian King said coldly.
"Impossible, the movements of the Dayuan army are all under our control.
We will be the first to know if there is any movement.
How could I possibly lead a large army to attack your rear?"
The Great Elder simply didn't believe it.
"Humph, I should be the one asking you this, not you asking me, the King!"
The barbarian king is very angry.
㰱Wushuang thought that the barbarian king was deliberately causing trouble.
I want to get greater support from Yunlu Pavilion.
Seeing the two sides drawing their crossbows, Wushuang quickly spoke up to talk peace: "As long as they are from the Dayuan court, there are people from our army, and there are indeed no other movements.
They had been stationed there for a long time and had not launched any attacks in the past few days.
Most of Li Ye's cavalry were also harassing the front line, and no soldiers went to other places.
I estimate that there are only about 10,000 to 20,000 troops led by Zhao Wudi.
Can't you handle the harassment from such a small army?"
The barbarian king heard the contempt in his words.
He looked at Wushuang with murderous intent on his face: "If it's just a few tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, the tribesmen can deal with it themselves, why would they come to you?"
"This is really strange. Since it is confirmed that the great army did not move, then where did the great army come from?" asked Wu Wushuang.
The barbarian general was furious when he heard this: "Do you think our king is looking for trouble and pretending to be attacked?
Let me tell you, there are at least 500,000 troops in the rear who are constantly annihilating our tribe.
If this continues, it won't be long before all of our barbarians are wiped out."
"Five hundred thousand troops? How is that possible?" Wushuang didn't believe it at all.
"The only one who can have such a large army is Li Ye. Even the Lingshuang Kingdom combined does not have such a large army.
However, these 500,000 troops should all be infantry. Even if they are sent over, they should not pose any threat to you.
As long as you're careful and don't get surrounded, there's absolutely no danger."
The Great Elder thought for a moment and finally came to a conclusion.
If Dayuan could send troops to launch a surprise attack on the rear, only Li Ye’s base could do it.
But he was not in a hurry.
First of all, Yun Zhongtian has already gone to Lingshuang Kingdom. As long as he can persuade Yue Fengyi to send troops, no matter how many infantry there are, they will be no match for the elite cavalry.
After wiping out 500,000 infantrymen, they joined forces to deal with the main force of Dayuan.
As long as we can win this battle and annihilate the imperial army.
The Dayuan court had no choice but to ask Yunlu Pavilion for help.
"Infantry? Have you ever seen infantry marching 500 miles in a single day?
I might as well tell you, this is definitely cavalry.
By the time the news reached us, more than three large tribes had already been completely wiped out.
There are countless other small tribes.
Not only did they move quickly, but they also left no one alive.
It was a complete massacre!"
Both the Great Elder and Wushuang were completely stunned.
They simply didn't dare to believe what the barbarian king said.
But seeing how angry he looked, it was obvious that he wasn't joking.
"Five hundred thousand cavalrymen, how can this be done?
Even if the entire grassland is added together, how many regular cavalry troops are there?" The elder looked incredulous.
Qin Qingxue suddenly thought of something.
He exclaimed: "I know this is definitely Li Ye's army.
Only he can do it.”
"How is it possible that even he doesn't have so many war horses!" Wushuang didn't believe it at all.
"Have you forgotten that we attacked Annan?
Li Ye led the entire army sitting in carriages, and each carriage could carry at least a dozen people.
Using this method to speed up the army is comparable to cavalry." Qin Qingxue reminded.
Upon hearing this, Wushuang suddenly realized what was going on and regretted taking the selfie of his thigh.
"It's Li Ye again. Could it be that he has escaped?"
㰱Wushuang felt extremely guilty at this moment.
His pursuit of Yue Fengyi and Li Ye failed, and he completely offended people on both sides.
If he returns to Dayuan smoothly, there will be no place for him to stand.
